GROWING. THANK YOU! $2.00 a Year. 5c a Copy BICKETT DENOUNCES THE KLU KLUX KLAN Governor of North Carolina Repudiates Movement Which He Characterizes as "Desperately Wicked Appeal to Race Prejudice." FIRST ATTACK MADE BY SOUTHERN GOVERNOR "No Need for Any Secret Order to Enforce the Law of This Land and Appeal to Race Prejudice Silly and Sinful," Declares Executive. (By the Associated Negro Press.) Raleigh, N. C., July 10—Deneouncing the Loyal Order of Klansmen, which has received a state charter and is being widely advertised in the newspapers, among them Secretary Daniel's democratic organ here, Governor Bickett has called on all North Carolinians to repudiate this "desperately wicked appeal to race prejudice," and to withhold from "this scheme so transparently impossible, so plainly a gold brick proposition that ordinarily the inmates of an institution of the feeble minded could not be induced to part with their coin for a certificate of membership in such a soap bubble." Gov. Bickett's attack, which is said to be the first made by any Southern Governor on this organization which is secretly sweeping over the south, comes in the middle of a campaign for memberships. The entrance of $50 has been cut to $17 and page advertisements are being published. Gov. Bickett's attack, it has been said, may be followed by libel suits by the promoters, who justify the organization as an answer to activities among Nevores who are organizing. The governor catalogues from literature the undertakings of the order, which will "protect our farmer," his crops and our cotton; protect our country from lawless invasions; protect the women of our south, and protect our government; protect our state laws; protect our country from foreign interference in the state; protect our properties from unlawful seizures; protect people from riots and disorders. Quite incidental to this proposition to underwrite the government, it announces a number of institutions which will be maintained, of which the governor says: "And all that it costs to enter into the possession of these vast estates and into the power and glory of this omnipotent order is to pay into the now empty treasury the sum of $50 to join and $18 a year thereafter. "Running through the whole scheme is a wicked appeal to race prejudice," he adds. "There is a hark back to the lawless time that followed the Civil war, and there are paraded before the mind of the readers the terrors of those dark days. The very name that is written on the death head is a subtle appeal to the fears and prejudices of our people. "Such an appeal is desperately wicked. There is no good need for any secret order to enforce the law of this land and the appeal to race prejudice is as silly as it is sinful." WELL KNOWN LODGE MAN DIES (By the Associated Negro Press.) Columbia, S. C., July 10.—James A. Brigman, secretary of the grand lodge of Colored Odd Fellows of the state, died at his home here after a brief illness. Brigman had been employed in the state capitol for several years and was well liked by those who knew him. THE MONITOR A NATIONAL WEEKLY NEWSPAPER DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF COLORED AMERICANS. VIRGINIA WELCOMES HER HEROES HOME (By the Associated Negro Press.) Richmond, Va., July 10.—Never in the history of the city has there been such a wild demonstration of patriotism as was witnessed upon the return of the 808th Pioneer infantry from overseas. All of Richmond, including both races, turned out to welcome these dark skinned boys of Uncle Sam. They were everywhere received with the greatest enthusiasm and the day of their return will be long remembered. It was learned, through the return of these soldiers, whom the white people of Virginia regard as the artistocrats of the race, says the Richmond Leader, daily, on this subject: "The Virginia heroes are the artistocrats of their race. They have been longest in America. They are the most intelligent. They are most law abiding. They have, of course, their bad element, as the whites have, and they combat that element, but they surely are not to be judged by it. Understanding and understood, they deserve, as they sought to win, the respect of all right thinking men. "What a splendid thing it would be if we might make the return of our Negro soldiers the occasion for a movement that would give them better living conditions—a sure foundation for health and industrial progress." No state in America has surpassed Virginia in its demonstration of patriotic interests in returned soldiers. LIVE IN TENTS AND AVOID HIGH RENT Pittsburg, Pa. July 10.—If plans of the Negro population of the Hill district are approved by certain city officials, a tent town will soon make its appearance in the congested section of the hill. The arrangements are to erect tents on city property and live in them until winter's winds drive them to other and more sturdy shelter, as rents are said to be so excessive that many families are being forced to vacate on account of not being able to meet the profit-seeking landlords' new prices. In an appeal before council, George A. Neals, representing several civic organizations of the hill, and A. W. Lynch, editor of the Pittsburg American, a paper published for Negroes, the men told of how rents during the past two months have been advanced in some instances as much as $12 per month. Not only did the committee request permission to erect tents on city property for Negroes alone, but for white residents as well, who they say, are also suffering as the result of poor housing conditions. If the tent town is allowed government tents will be used. COLORED LEADERS HOLD RECONSTRUCTION CONFERENCE Hattiesburg, Miss., July 10.—A reconstruction conference of Colored leaders is taking place at the Colored Red Circle club under the auspices of the Young Men's Christian Association. The feature of the session this morning was an address by Prof. Lawrence Jones, superintendent of the Piney Woods School of Braxton, who spoke on "The Economic Condition and Opportunity of the Colored People in South Mississippi." A number of white people were present. THE REV. JOHN ALBERT WILLIAMS, Editor OMAHA, NEBRASKA, JULY 10, 1919 An Epoch-Making Assemblage Tenth Anniversary Conference National Association for the Advancement of Colored People Thrills With Enthusiasm and Unity of Purpose. LARGE ATTENDANCE AT ALL SESSIONS Delegates Present From All Sections of Country—Militant Demand for Rights of Citizenship Dominant Note of Speeches—President Omaha Branch Presides at Publicity Session and Secretary Serves on Resolutions Committee—Spingarn Medal Awarded. (Special to The Monitor by the Editor) CLEVELAND, O., July 3.—This beautiful city by the lake has been a most gracious and charming hostess to the delegates and visitors from 31 states, who from June 21 to 28 were in attendance for the tenth anniversary conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Delegates were present from as far west as Oregon, as far east as the Atlantic seaboard and as far south as Florida. The attendance from the southern states was notably large. The marked ability, earnestness of purpose, unanimity of sentiment, sanity and poise of this picked body of representative men and women was noted by even the casual observer. The local arrangements under the efficient chairmanship of Mr. Harry E. Davis, with a corps of able assistants, were most satisfactory. The weather was ideal. Everything seemed to work together to make this epoch-marking event a success. There was not one dull or uninteresting minute from the opening mass meeting Sunday afternoon to the closing session Saturday night. Three sessions daily at 10 a. m., 2 p. m. and 8 p. m. kept all busy, but were not sufficient to carry out the well arranged program. Many matters of interest and information remained untouched. Nebraska had four delegates present who did not miss a single session. They were: Rev. John Albert Williams, president; Mrs. Jessie Hale Moss, secretary, and Mrs. James G. Jewell, member of the executive committee, of the Omaha branch, and Mr. Trago McWilliams of the Lincoln branch. The Nebraska delegation was given prominence by the fact that the president of the Omaha branch was chosen to preside at the Monday afternoon session and the secretary to serve on the committee on resolutions. Omaha, too, was among those who received a pennant for securing its quota in the membership drive, raising fifty per cent more than its quota, thus ranking second. The sessions of the Conference were held for the most part at St. John's A. M. E. church, which beautiful edifice was placed at the disposal of the local committee by the pastor and trustees Opening Mass Meeting. The conference opened with a mass meeting Sunday afternoon at which Miss Mary White Ovington, in the absence of Moorfield Storey, detained at his home in Boston by illness, presided. Hundreds were unable to gain admittance. Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Dean Pickens and Bishop Hurst were the principal speakers. The first speaker commended Secretary of War Newton D. Baker for his efforts to function without prejudice to the Colored soldiers, but added that "although the administration of the selective draft service was fair to white and Colored men alike, there were only five Colored men appointed to draft boards throughout the country. "Statistics show that 10 per cent of the draft registrants were Colored and that the rate of rejection among the whites were higher than among the Colored registrants, the ratio being 76 to 64." said Mr. Scott. Continuing he stated that the number of Colored men in service ought to have given us 8,000 commissions as against the 1,200 we received, and that American Negro soldiers were the only group that had to fight for the right to fight, and then prove that they could fight, and we did it." Dean Wm. Pickens, who was introduced by Miss Mary White Ovington, chairman of the executive board, as the "Negro Ward Beecher," declared that "The Negro Soldier was safer, and knew it for himself, under the shell fire of No Man's Land, than amidst the persecuting shafts of race hatred back home. He further de- clared that it needs more courage for a Colored man to board a Pullman car, down around Vicksburg, Miss., than for a white man to go to war. Our troops showed beyond a shadow of a doubt that black is a safe color —it won't run, concluded Dean Pickens. Bishop John Hurst urged a rally to the Association in his splendid address. Monday Opens Busy Week. Monday Opens Busy Week. The opening session of the conference proper was held Monday morning at 10 o'clock. Mr. F. E. Young, president of the Cleveland branch, presiding. Addresses of welcome were delivered by Director Floyd Waite on behalf of Mayor Davis and Paul L. Feiss, president of the Chamber of Commerce. The latter in his address paid a high tribute to the ability of a group of race men in Cleveland, saying in part: "Get education and character and business credit as your race men in Cleveland have demonstrated by their ability to keep together, doing business, thus demanding the respect of those who doubt the capabilities of your race." In conclusion he said: "The association you represent is a good one and worthy of all the help I can give it." Rev. H. C. Bailey, pastor of Antioch Baptist church, in responding to the welcome declared: "I would rather spend the balance of my life in the cause of the Association than to preach to men and women under such damnable injustice in our so-called democracy." Bishop Hamilton of New England, a staunch friend of the race, gave an interesting address telling of his confidence in the race and urging them to contend manfully for their rights. John R. Shillady, national secretary, gave a summary of the growth of the militant organization for justice, and the phenomenal measure of support it had received, especially in Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama and other southern states. Publicity. "Publicity" was the subject of the afternoon session at which the Rev. John Albert Williams of Omaha, presided. He paid tribute to the splendid work of the Negro press and declared that one of the most hopeful indications of racial progress was the increasing demand upon the part of the race for information which a growing number of high class publications are supplying. The American public will correct evils if an unbiased press will give the facts and mould a righteous sentiment. The principal address was given by Mr. A. H. Shaw of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, who explained what constituted "real news," gave some excellent advice as to how to enlist the personal interest of newspaper men and stressed the fact of the power of facts. "Get facts before the public," he said. "Wrong cannot long endure fact." Other speakers were Mrs. Belle Blue-Claxton of Bloomington, Ill; Herbert J. Seligman, of New York, and Miss Ovington. Spingarn and DuBois. "The Battle Fields of France," was the subject at Monday night's mass meeting when Col. John Marshall presided and Major Spingarn, William T. Ferguson of Washington, D. C., and Dr. DuBois were the speakers. Mr. Ferguson spoke for the grand army of Americans, an organization of world war veterans. Major Spingarn spoke of the propaganda to discredit Colored soldiers and officers and of his observations of damnable prejudice from the time of his sailing. Returning to America he is convinced that there must be no cessation in the fight for justice and democracy at home. He said: "There is a challenge more menacing to American institutions of freedom and more dangerous than the threat of the Hun and it must be met and crushed, not with the sword—that is the last resort—but first with the vote, and, failing, then with the economic strike." An appeal for funds for the work of the Association was made by the Rev. Dr. Bryant of Charleston. More than $10,000 was subscribed by branches and individuals. This sum was subsequently raised to $12,000. Dr. DuBois was the last speaker. He told the story of most discouraging facts of the treatment received by Negro soldiers from Americans abroad. He read from various official documents and letters, now in his possession, showing the discrimi- (Continued on Page Three) Publicity. CHICAGO CELEBRATES DUNBAR'S BIRTHDAY (By the Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, July 10.—The birthday anniversary of Paul Laurence Dunbar, was memorialized in a great gathering at St. Mark Methodist Episcopal church Sunday, at which time Clarence S. Darrow, white, one of the greatest lawyers in America, delivered the principal address. Julius Avendorph was director and chairman of the meeting. Mr. Darrow said that Dunbar was one of the world's greatest poets, and that color prejudice is all a myth. Paul Laurence Dunbar, the Negro poet, who won a place in American literature, son of a former Kentucky slave and of pure African blood, was born on June 27, 1872, in Dayton, O. He was educated in the public schools there, and in 1891 was graduated from the high school. He began work as an elevator boy and later went to New York City, where he found employment as a newspaper writer and contributor to periodicals. Dunbar later appeared in public as a reader of his poems, which in 1893 were published in a volume entitled "Oak and Ivy." His third volume of verse, "Lyrics of Lowly Life," published in 1896 called general attention to his work and received commendation from W. D. G. Howells and James Lane Allen. He wrote partly in Negro dialect and partly in conventional English, and was considered to have expressed the sentiment of his race very faithfully and in melodious form. He published several novels, including "The Sport of the Gods." Other volumes of verse than those mentioned were "Poems of Cabin and Field," "Candle-Lightin' Time," and "Howdy, Honey, Howdy." In 1897 Dunbar was appointed to a position in the library of congress, which he filled for several years, but, contracting tuberculosis, he returned to Dayton, where he died in 1906. ERECTION OF SANATORIUM HELD UP BY INJUNCTION Baltimore, Md., July 10.—Judge Allan McLane signed an order in the circuit court at Towson restraining Governor Harrington and other members of the board of managers of the Maryland Tuberculosis sanatorium from erecting a sanatorium on a proposed site near Towson for the treatment of Colored tubercular patients. The bill on which the injunction was granted was filed by Andrew Snyder and wife on behalf of themselves and other residents of the vicinity. The complainants state in the bill that they are the owners of the valuable property adjacent to the 60 acres for the purchase of which the board has secured an option at the price of $380 per acre. The bill states that the board has no authority under the law to make such a purchase and no funds which can be legally used for that purpose. When the legislature passed an act authorizing the establishment of a sanatorium for Colored patients it was stipulated that nothing was to be done in the matter until the next session of that body. The complainants also claim that the founding of a sanatorium at the proposed locality would be a nuisance and a menace to the public health. ATLANTA TO HAVE SEVEN NEW CLINICS Atlanta, Ga., July 10.—The different zone chairmen throughout the city who have been giving such splendid co-operation during the cleanup campaign in the colored districts are now putting seven free clinics into operation in their own communities. The physicians under Dr. J. W. Madison gave their services for two afternoons. The Colored nurses have volunteered their co-operation and at least two of them will be in attendance at each of the seven clinic places. NEW THEATER AND STORE HOUSE OPENED (By Associated Negro Press.) Brunswick, Ga., July 10.—F. J. Peterson, is erecting a handsome two-story brick building on Gloucester street, which will be occupied by five stores on the first floor and a Colored theater on the second floor. Just across the railroad from the Peterson store, Dr. Buggs, is erecting another handsome two-story brick building which will be used as a garage and office building. LIFTING. LIFT, TOO! Vol. V. No. 2 (WHO No. 210) HDAY ress.) WINS SUIT AGAINST THEATER Verdict of Great Importance as It Sets Precedent for Recognition of Civil Rights. Spokane, Wash., July 10.—Holding that a Negro has the right to sit in any part of the theater to which the admission price entitles him, a jury in Superior Judge Huneke's court here recently returned a verdict of $200 damages for S. S. Moore, Colored, against the Pantages Theater company. The judgment if of widespread importance, for it means that Negroes cannot be segregated from whites in any place of public amusement in the state of Washington. The jury deliberated only an hour and a half before determining the verdict which was returned. Of the twelve ujrors, eleven declared the $200 judgment was their verdict. Martin Johnson of Cheney replied in the negative. "I wanted the damages to be $1,000 at first," said Mr. Johnson. "Later I dropped to $500, but did not agree with the $200 verdict. I did not think that was enough." "All of us were for damages from the start," said James Hammel, E. 1809 Heroy avenue, another juror. "All declared that even if a man were black he had the right to sit where he wanted to. We figured though that $200 was enough balm for Moore's humiliation." Moore sued the "Pan" for $5,000. According to the testimony he appeared at the theater September 15. The usher requested him to take a seat in the second balcony, stating it was the custom of the theater to put Negroes there. Moore objected and left. He claimed the $5,000 for embarrassment and humiliation. F. W. Girand and Charles Aten were his attorneys. George Armitage was attorney for the theater company. DALLAS JOINS BUNDY IN FIGHT Dallas Tex., July 10.—For the past week, Dallas has had in her midst W. S. Hueston of Kansas City, Mo., who is one of the attorneys engaged in the defense of Dr. Leroy Bundy, who was convicted of murder, in connection with the East St. Louis riot at Waterloo, Ill., in March of this year. Mr. Hueston delivered a number of addresses while in this city, but his address on the "Incidents of the Bundy Trial" delivered at the New Pythian Temple under the auspices of the Inter-Denominational Ministerial Alliance, was one of the most gripping and thrilling ever heard in this city. Dallas is thoroughly aroused over the injustice done Dr. Bundy and has formed an association to assist him. COLORED MAN HIGH TRACTION OFFICIAL (Special to the Toronto) Toronto, Canada, July 10.—Toronto has been in the grasp of a prolonged street car strike, investigation of which has disclosed the fact that a race man, Fred C. Hubbard, is a high traction official, drawing the salary of $8,000 a year. He is assistant manager of the Toronto Street railway. His father held for years the position of alderman and comptroller and on one occasion was acting mayor of Toronto. COMMUNITY CENTERS OR- GANIZED TO CARE FOR GIRLS (By Associated Negro Press.) Tarrytown, N. Y., July 10.—The National League of Women Workers decided in conference here today to establish community centers in New York and various cities to take care of the influx of southern Negro girls into the northern states.

Evansville, Ind., July 10.-At the closing session of the Central States conference of the Free Methodist church, Monday, Dr. M. Madden, of Oklahoma City, prominent evangelist, was chosen to present a plan to the congress for a Negro reservation in the state of Texas, to be governed along the lines of the Indian reservations in the west. Dr. Madden will go before the congress in September and has arranged for an interview with President Wilson to take up the matter. 2 JOHNSON SECURES OWN ACQUITTAL (By Associated Negro Press.) Gainesville, Ga. July 10—United States court convened this morning at 10 o'clock, when the grand jury re- turned several true bills and an- nounced the completion of its work, when the body was discharged for the term with the thanks of the court. The case of Luke Johnson, Colored, charged with evading the draft was then called. The jury was sworn and Solicitor John L. Neely presented the government’s case. Johnson was not represented by counsel, managing his own case. After hearing the evi- dence on both sides, Judge Sheppard instructed the jury to return a ver- dict of not guilty. Johnson has been before the United States state and municipal courts so many times for so many different alleged infractions of the law that he has reached the point where he considers himself com- petent to manage his own case, and the manner in which he handled the case today shows he has a pretty clear knowledge of the statutes, especially in the matter of laying the founda- tion for introduction of testimony. MUSTACHE ON THE END OF HIS NOSE (By Associated Negro Press.) New Orleans, La. July 10.—The usual place for a mustache is on the upper lip, below the nose. Willie ‘Webb of 2624 S, Andrew street, Ne- gro veteran of the Champagne front, has a mustache on the top of his nose near the end, or would have if he did not shave it away with his trusty razor. A section of his sealp was grafted there by surgeons in Paris, a skilfull piece of rebuilding after a shell had exploded in the soldier’s face. ‘The regiment of which Webb was a ‘member took several German trenches in the line of advance and a number of prisoners. Willie saw German dug- outs “all conereted” with a piano and “lots of beer.” He himself captured a German soldier who persisted in showing fight after he was taken, ‘even when “asked nice” to come along. so Willie “drug him.” He was wounded October 4 by 2 shell that killed three near him. INDIANA ENROLLS SOLDIERS (By Associated Negro Press.) Indianapolis, Ind., July 10.—E. W.

Ministers of local churches were invited to occupy seats on the platform. ‘The purpose of che meeting was to swell the scholarship fund for Negro boys and girls who complete the local high school courses.

C., July 10.—On a point of order raised by Representa- tive Ragsdale of South Carolina, the appropriations for the support of Howard university, this city, carried in the sundry bill, were stricken from ‘the bill in the house Monday. Mr. es contended that there is no legislation authorizing the appropria- ‘tion. Chairman Good admitted there is ‘no legislation authorizing the appro- priation, but urged Mr. Ragsdale to let the item stand as appropriations had been carried in the bill for many years.

Lunch was beans, beans, beans. Supper was a triumph, It consisted of spaghetti and tomato sauce, custard, cake, tea and sandwichés. Every girl had her time for K.

Mr, Joseph Polcar, Care Omaha Daily News, City. Dear Sir:— Referring to the enclosed clipping of headline from your paper, I wish to inquire why you should feature such things in this manner. I assure you that it does not appeal to the better class of white and Colored people. I further wish to refer to the small clip- ping attached, which appeared in an inconspicuous part of your paper and inquire just why this is not as impor- tant in your estimation as the subject of headline above mentioned. Thave taken the matter up with the editors of the Bee and Herald in ret- erence to these sensational writeups and they have agreed with me that they are not demanded by the public, either Colored or white, and your pa- per will best serve the interests of the people, in our estimation, by putting these items of news in less glaring type.

Y., July 10.—A measure ‘aimed to stop lynching, which tends to increase, has been introduced in congress by Representative Dallinger ‘of Massachusetts. By the terms of the bill a state, or the officers of a state in which lynching takes place, will be considered as denying to a citizen lynched the rotection of the laws and a lynching will be considered a violation of the peace of the United States. Every person in a mob by which a citizen is put to death will be deemed guilty of murder, subject to prosecu- tion and, if convicted, subject to pun- ishment under the laws of the state in which the lynching occurs. More than that the state will be subject to the forfeiture of $5,000 to $10,000 for the use of the dependents of the persons lynched. | Officers of the state who fail to prevent lynching and prosecuting offi- cers who fail to prosecute for the offense all persons participating in a lynching mob will be deemed guilty of an offense against the United ‘States. Representative Dallinger would provide for them a punishment ot ‘not more than two years’ imprison- ‘ment or a fine not exceeding $5,000, ar hoth_ C. S. JOHNSON 18th and Izard Tel.

Two members of the mob were killed and 11 injured when the sol- diers fired on the would-be lynchers a couple of hours earlier. Matanzas is said to be greatly ex- cited and further trouble is feared. AN EPOCH-MAKING ASSEMBLAGE ey eee eee Te i ae a ei At the morning session, William R. Conners of the Welfare Association presided, and splendid practical ad- dresses were made by E.

C. McNeal of Chi- cago, presided. Illuminating, practi- cal and convincing addresses were made by Prof. Geo. A. Towns, of At- lanta university, in which he urged the continuance of migration; and Eugene K. Jones, who sees wonderful opportunities in the changed attitude of labor unions towards the Negro. Pilgrimage to Oberlin, Wednesday the conference pilgrim- aged to Oberlin, the first institution to open its doors to Negro students, where a cordial welcome awaited the delegates. In the afternoon a mass meeting was held in Finney chapel, where the delegates were welcomed by the mayor and representatives of ithe college. The speakers were Prof. | Wright of Oberlin; John A. Gregg, president of Edward Waters college; Dr, DuBois, and Miss Cora Finley of Atlanta, The subject was “Eduea- | tion.” Returning to Cleveland a mass meeting was held at 8 o'clock in Ep- worth Memorial church. The subject was “Education and Social Welfare.” ‘The speakers were John R. Shillady, Leo M. Favrot, state supervisor of rural schools, Louisiana; and Rev, M. H. Lichleiter. Mr. Favrot belongs to |the awakening type of white men in the south, who are getting a wider outlook. He read a most statesman- like paper, not minimizing the short- |sightedness of his state in the neglect |ofsNegro education, but gave facts to show that conditions are improving. | ‘Thursday's Sessions, | At Thursday’s sessions “The Vote” |was considered, An excellent address | was delivered by Hon.

E. church, Butler Wilson, president lof the N. A. A.C, P. branch, of Bos- ton, presided, the address being deliv- ered by Rev. Mordecai Johnson of Charlestown, W. Va., and Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson. A pleasing surprise was the unexpected presence of Charles Edward Russell of Root Rus- sian commission, who gave an inspir- ing address emphasizing the fact that in seven northern states the. Negro vote can control the elections, He urged the recognition of this impor- tant fact and its organized and wise use, Pennants were awarded by Miss Ovington to the branches which had gone over the top. Branches and the Association. Friday morning and afternoon were devoted to such subjects as financing the national work; membership re- eruiting and retaining membership; literature; state or district organiza- tions; special problems o fthe city branch, Friday night was “Spingarn Medal Night.” The speakers were Oswald Garrison Villard, James Weldon John- son and President ‘Thwing of Western Reserve college, who presented the medal to that grand old gentleman, Archibald Grimke, of Washington, D. C., who in his gracious acceptance of the honor said, “I haven't done any- thing to deserve it; I've simply tried to be of service to my race, I would rather have this medal than a dis- tinguished service cross from the hands of President Wilson.” Mr. Villard’s message was one of non-resistance by force, but by the manifestation of patient suffering and forebearance. “I would not have your noble race sink to the level of my rac in its deeds of crime, violence an¢ bloodshed,” said the speaker. “I have wondered whether. peac ever will be achieved until some na. tion deliberately dedicates itself tc destruction if need be, and goes down to slaver@, even to death, because it is too proud and too just and too honest and too sincerely Christian— to fight. We will triumph only by being true to the life and teaching of Jesus Christ.” “I preach this doctrine to you to- day, because I hear it said that no longer is there time for patience and humility; that where the Ku Klux walks, there the blood shall flow. “No one who preaches the doctrine of reform by force in America is a loyal or worthy American. So far it redounds to the great honor of the Colored people that no assassin of a president has had dark skin.

He urged unceasing effort for organization, as the fundamental machinery with which the Negro must come into his own Closing Sessions. Saturday morning and afternoon were devoted to reports of branches and choice of next meeting place, for which, after an animated discission, Atlanta, Ga., was selected. Invita- tions had been received from the may- or and Chamber of Commerce. Gray’s armory, which has a capacity of 5,000, was comfortably filled by the audience which attended the clos- ing session. The subject was “Anti- Lynching.” Harry E. Davis presided, An interesting feature of the evening was the presentation of two mag- nificent bouquets of roses to Miss Mary White Ovington, “the mother of the Association,” who serves with- out salary because she believes in the capability of the Negro race to rise to the highest type of American citizenship. The presentation was made on behalf of the Association by James Weldon Johnson. The speak- ers of the evening were Prof. G. A. Gregg of Kansas City, Kas.; Walter F. White, assistant secretary of the N. A. A. C. P,, and the Rev. Pezavia O'Connell of Cleveland. ‘The immense audience was thrilled with the stir- ring messages of these speakers, who urged for America’s sake that efforts ‘should not slacken until this evil is ‘banished from our beloved country. The’ resolutions adopted by the con- ‘ference touch upon all vital questions dealing with the fullest privilege of American citizenship, and demand an equitable distribution of educational funds, Approval was voted for expenditure this year of $62,000 by the national office. Of this sum $10,000 is to be spent in campaigns against lynching, $2,000 for legislative and legal ex- penses, $12,000 for field organization, investigation and traveling expenses, $7,300 for administrative and super- visory work, $9,000 for educational and publicity work and $19,000 for enmwnt cities axcenses: THE MONITOR A National Weekly Newspaper Devoted to the Interests of Colored Americans.

THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. THE RACE AWAKENING No one could attend the sessions of the tenth anniversary conference of the N. A. A. C. P. and listen to the sane, able and intelligent discussions without being uplifted, inspired and convinced of the ability, integrity and awakening sense of power of the Negro race in these United States. Uplifted by the demonstration of the race's ability and capacity and its noble traits of character, inspired by this demonstration to do all within one's power to live worthy of the best traditions of the race and to help foster, develop and train, so far as in one lies these wonderful traits and capacities. Convinced that the race is thinking its problems through, knows its power, its rights, its privileges, its obligations and its determination by well directed organization to obtain by moral appeal all to which it is justly entitled. There is a unanimity of purpose upon the part of the Negro race in America today which means a new era of better things. There was no counselling to deeds of violence in the great meeting at Cleveland, but a frank and outspoken determination to fight race prescription and prejudice by an intelligent, well organized propaganda, appealing to the sense of justice and fair play from fellow Americans of the white race and to invoke the courts only as a last resort. The weapons are to be agitation, education, publicity and the courts. The fight is on and will not cease until the victory is won. It is not a sectional fight, but a national fight, indeed an international one. The Negro is awakening. He is organizing and co-operating in order that he may secure simple justice in this country, to whose best interests he has always been loyal and true. In this fight he is not alone. Thousands of liberal-minded, noble-hearted white men and women, are with him, but above all Almighty God, the God of righteousness, justice and truth is on his side and if the race will only remain true to Him it will triumph gloriously. "Not by MIGHT, but by RIGHT, and My Spirit Saith the Lord." AGAINST SEGREGATION IN LABOR THOMAS P. REYNOLDS, head of the local labor unions, is authority for the statement that organized labor is opposed to the principle of segregation in the employment of labor. He says that he sees no reason why Colored and white workmen could not and should not work side by side in the same office, mill or factory. White labor has no right to ask for itself special rights and privileges which it would withhold from black labor. The rights of one must be the rights of all, and all must be equally safeguarded. There must be a recognition of true democracy within the ranks of organized labor. The Monitor hopes that Mr. Reynolds voices the sentiment not only of labor leaders, but also of the rank and file. We are frank to say that we do not believe he does. His position is fundamentally sound, and to this position union labor must ultimately come if it be true to basic principles and would survive. However, union labor has been joined to its idols so long in excluding black labor from its ranks and privileges that it will take more than the fiat of the most influential labor leader to move it to do that which is just. Mr. Reynolds is standing upon high ground and we sincerely hope that labor will ascend to the same plane. Segregation in labor is undoubtedly wrong. All labor should be justly and fairly treated. We are glad to see that organized labor is at last moving in the right direction. It must not be disappointed, however, if the thoughtful Negro workman—and the Negro everywhere is thinking hard, fast and seriously these days-prove somewhat cautious in accepting the well-meant overtures from labor unions. USING OPPORTUNITIES OPPORTUNITY is knocking at the door of the Colored American as never before. Positions in the business and industrial world hitherto closed to us are opening everywhere. It is up to us to prove our worthiness for these opportunities of employment by making good. To do this means that we must be exceedingly careful to be prompt, courteous, dependable, honest and efficient. There must be no shiftlessness, carelessness or loafing on the job. It makes no difference what the other fellow does and gets by with it; that's not our concern. It is our duty to render honest, full and efficient service, the very best that is in us. We are in the limelight. We are being carefully watched, all our actions conned and noted to be cast into our teeth, if we fail, and as justification for withheld or denied 'opportunities. Therefore, whatever your position may be do realize that by the way you do your work and conduct yourself you are either helping to batter down the wall of race prejudice or rearing the wall a little higher. If you are given a job that no Colored man has held before, do remember the responsibility which is yours by reason of this opportunity. So use your opportunity that what has come to you by sufferance, tolerance or industrial and economic necessity, may become guaranteed to you and yours by merit. Do your level best. Strive to excel, Promptness, thoroughness, honesty, reliability are demanded from all who would make good. Opportunities are here now and looming larger every day. May we use them wisely and realize our racial responsibility in doing so. AT ITS USUAL TRICKS THE Omaha Daily News is at its usual reprehensible tricks of trying to stir up trouble by sensational headlines of alleged assaults by Negroes upon women. Of course, no one has any sympathy for a degenerate, white or black, who will attack a woman for purposes of defilement. But why is it necessary for the News to play up the merest rumor of an alleged assault, where the assailant is supposed to be a Negro, with screaming headlines? There is only one course for self-respecting people in this community who do not approve of such methods to follow and that is to refuse to buy the Omaha Daily News. CAREFUL READING Reading is a popular pastime in the United States. No country on earth has as many publications of various kinds as has ours. Nowhere are so many books printed, sold and read; but with the increasing quantity of reading material and the growing habit of keeping up with the latest fiction there has come a grave danger to the art of reading for instruction rather than for amusement. It is useful for us to stop once in a while in our reading and consider whether we are getting intellectual and moral value from the great mass of fiction it is our habit to wade through in the course of a few months. If we will sternly demand of ourselves a count of the worth-while ideas we have acquired through reading in, say, a month, we may surprise ourselves with the discovery that to name even a handful of points learned is an almost impossible task. We have read thousands of words, hundreds of pages and it is quite possible that the things we have really learned may be put in fifty words—or less. THE PARKING TRADE MARKS INDUSTRIES OMAHA THE MONITOR Our broader democracy, our better living conditions and our broader interest in life as compared with most other nations, are undoubtedly due in large degree not only to our free public education, but to our reading habits as well; but while we read much we need to become more active students of our reading. Not students just to show our superior learning; that is pedantry; but students to be more useful citizens. One of the greatest moralists of all ages, Thomas A. Kempis, wrote this five hundred years ago: "If thou desire to profit read with humility, simplicity and faithfulness; nor ever desire the repute of learning." We do not need to read studiously for the sake of becoming learned, but if we are going to make our influence a little more effective for good we should read carefully, at least once in a while; and it is careful reading that brings profit.-The Detroit Journal. Cleveland is hostess this week to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, gathered here for its tenth anniversary conference. It is an organization that has demonstrated its usefulness to the country, and the city is pleased to extend its hospitality to delegates and visitors. The association had its birth in the Lincoln centennial year, as it gets much of its inspiration from the life and labors and achievements of the great emancipator. In response to a call sent out to the people of America to give thought to the condition of the Negro, a conference was held in May, 1909. Attention was called to the wrongs and suffering endured by Colored people and plans were laid to combat them in every reasonable and proper way. President Charles F. Thwing of Western Reserve university was one of the signers of the original call. A committee was organized and two years later the present association was incorporated. That the organization had a duty to perform and a place among the many at work to advance the interests of the race is indicated by its rapid growth in membership. From 1,000 in 1912, to 50,000 last year and 65,000 now its members have multiplied as the practical utility of the association became manifest. It is hoped that by the end of the present conference its membership may have increased to 100,000. Organized to fight wrongs against the Negro race, to keep the public informed of injustices perpetrated against Colored people and to correct such conditions whenever possible, the association has been a persistent investigator and a conscientious enemy of wrongdoers. It has promoted anti-lynching conferences and campaigned against the sentiment that tacitly justifies this form of murder. It has secured a supreme court decision against the grandfather clause, and got the segregation ordinance of Louisville, Ky., declared unconstitutional. It is an association militant for justice. It seeks political and civil equality, equal justice in the courts, an equitable expenditure of public funds for education, sanitation, health and police protection. These are aims which any fair minded American should be ready to grant. There is no color line in an honest democracy.—The Cleveland Plain Dealer. PAULINE'S TRAVELS THROUGH THE CULINARY ART This is the title of a book written, edited and published by one of Omaha's residents, Mrs. C. Pauline Lynch. Gotten up in an attractive cover it contains 122 pages of information, household hints and recipes, every single one of which has been tried and proved the author herself. All the pictures in the book were taken in her home. Written in a clear, simple style it pleases as well as educates the reader in all the tricks of the trade that belong to the expert in the art and science of household affairs. At the end of the book we find these lines: "He may live without books—what is knowledge but grieving? He may live without hope, what is hope but deceiving? He may live without love, what is passion but pining? But where is the man that can live without dining?" Mrs. Lynch is meeting with phenomenal success in the sale and distribution of her book, the high character of which makes sale easy. Mr. Hagelman of the Alamito declared that he never saw so many good things so simply and pointedly put. His wife should study it next to the good book, said he. The glory of a good man is the testimony of a good conscience.—Thomas a-Kempis. When you don't receive your Monitor please drop us a card. THE N. A. A. C. P. Flashes of Most Anything "SO much talk about principle makes me sick. It is policy and dollars which count." When a certain parson recently made that statement to us it seemed as if we could hear the Nazarene grown aloud over the false prophet who had come to Israel. DRY America is paying for the champagne her peace envoys are drinking. One of the reasons of the high cost of living over here is the high living of our representatives over there. THE fume over Flume continues. Italy threatens withdrawal unless there should be a free port in Flume with annexation to Italy. This is the most belligerent looking peace that ever presented itself to a peace-loving man. THE electrocutioner of New York has increased his death fee from $50 to $100. It costs to put Sing Sing victims out of their misery. HOW long will a so-called democratic christian people cease to burn each other? How long will public opinion allow a Mississippi governor or to stand supinely by while mob rule reigns, weakly saying, "I'm utterly powerless?" How long before the right to fight and die will go hand in hand with the right to vote and live? How long, oh Lord, how long! FIT TO WIN! It took medical science thousands of years to learn what "the sins of the fathers shall be visited upon the children even unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me.' It took the war of the rebellion to prove to a doubting world that a nation could not exist half slave and half free. It took the bloodiest and ghastliest war in history to prove might does not make right. When will America, our America, fit herself to be called 'the glorious democracy of the west' by giving to all her citizens, regardless of race or creed or color, equality before the law and participation in the government of the commonwealth? COLD is the night—the road extending far to shadow realms— The stones beneath my feet, one solitary star, The wood where phantoms meet. The ghostly trees, stripped of their summer green— Wrapped in their winding sheets, and scarcely seen Great bushes crouch. Gone are the flow'rs, snapped by winter's breath, Yet the oak that towers is nourished by their death. Dark is the night—the road extending far to shadow realms— The stones beneath my feet, one solitary star; The world where mortals meet— The giant trees become the men of earth, The living heroes, theirs the souls of worth, Staunch and stalwart, e'en against the gale When weakly vines and clinging flowers fail. When spring is here, the grass and foliage green, Deep undergrowth and mildest skies serene— One scarce can tell the noble from the scum— Till afterwhile the searching winter's come; The tree but towers above to clearer skies— Untouched by all the ruin which round it lies. Bright is the night—the road extending far, to pleasant realms— The grass beneath my feet, the Heav'n lit with stars— The world where mortals meet. Behold, at once I glance around to find A surging crowd in front of me—behind, And some are stopping by the way to rest, And some are stepping quickly into place Among the trees, a place of usefulness. And some are dead, yet live—a life of ease, E'en basking in the shadow of the trees. And some are hopeless having lost their way Or passed the path wherein their talents lay. Methinks the time has come when I shall leave This winding road and step out by the way, O may I all this brief, sad life perceive The path that leads unto the Perfect Day. THE ROAD By Eva A.

Every time Miss Helen Counsellor can catch a crowd at a public gathering or hear some one speak of hiring a car, she will tell them not to hire any of the Colored cars; that the North Side Taxi charged her $2 to take her from down town to 24th and Grant streets. I want to say that it is not so; my prices are 30c for the first one-third mile and 10c for each one-third mile thereafter, and 20c for each additional passenger over one and 10c for each four minutes waiting or hour time $3 per hour, and what is more she has never hired my car. She is like a lot of other people saying I charge so much, and have never hired my car or if they have they still owe me for the ride. She rides in the brown cab all the time and boosts for them, so if she was charged $2 for that distance it must have been the brown cab and not me. J. D. LEWIS.

Won't you come and call on me in my home so we can have a nice talk about our eyes?” asked ‘the spider. “No,” said the fly, “I won't. You may be able to get many of my family ‘to call on you but I won't be so stupid.” “It is hardly nice of you to say that it is stupid to come and call on me,” “said the spider. “Well, it is,” said the fly, “and deep down in your heart, if you have any heart, you know it to be true, I don't want to be caught by you, but from a safe distance I will talk to you.” ‘The spider began to act as though he were sad because the fly would not talk it over with him in more friendly fashion, but the fly laughed and the fly buzzed and the fly said: “I remember the old story about the spider who invited the fly to his parlor. No, I don't care to be invited to any spider's parlor. So we may as well be quite clear about this now. We may ‘as well understand each other perfect- ly.” “All right,” said the spider, “if that 1s the way you feel about it.” “It Is the way I feel about it,” said the fly. “I see I can do nothing with you,” said the spider. “You admire me though, don’t you?” ‘asked the fly. “Well, perhaps,” said the spider, “but I hate to admit it. We creatures, and aed Ar \ spiders aren't the only ones, will often really admire another creature much more who keeps to his own sensible ways than to let himself be conxed in- to doing something very foolish.” “There are many flies who have com- pound eyes, many eyes, double eyes, eyes, eyes,” said the fly. “And there are many-eyed spiders, too,” said the spider. At this some more spiders and files joined them and the spiders all began to ask the files to talk the subject over in a more friendly fashion, but the wise fly was there to keep them from accepting the invitation. “They say,” said the spider, “that our eyes aren't as fine as the eyes of people who only have one pair of eyes.” “Why is that?” asked the fly. “That seems rather strange.” “Because,” said the spider, “our eyes are fixed in their different places and people can look in all directions with their eyes, sideways, upwards, down- wards and all over. They can really do very well with one pair of eyes apiece. “And it is all because their eyes are so movable.” “They can't take them out and have ‘them in the back of their heads one moment snd in the front the next, cap they?” asked another spider. “No,” said the spider, “they can merely move them around in the reg: ular places for eyes so that they can ‘see all around them. But they can move their heads so they can see what 1s behind them. “Ah, these are the days when there ‘are our cocoons to be found under ‘stones and on top of walls, and there ‘the mother spiders are hatching lots ‘of little pink eggs which will become spiders, too. “It is the spring, you see, files and and the spring fs the time of “the year when new things come, new ds new spiders, new leaves on the protetis a then a caterpillar cruwled 0 chi: soreceeiettntaate eae i) ae 3 at re ee ee en ars open aes Fee ee Batre eee oy Mary Graham Bonner FLIES AND SPIDERS. ee i re ; lies’ es FF ner = | ‘ _ re = PENN pee, “Good morning.” said the caterpil- lar.

Whenever possible a most grace- ful and pleasing garnish for the fruit of the breakfast table Is the foliage of the fruit itself or any which resem: bles it. After the fruit is the morn- ing cereal. If one has never tried the whole wheat as it comes from the thresher or granary there is still a treat in store. In many homes a small mill 1s used to grind these grains of various kinds. They will cook much quicker if ground, but wheat well washed and soaked over night then cooked slowly on the back of the stove until it is soft, has yet to find {ts equal as wholesome food, especial- ly for the little people. Serve it with top milk and cook enough to last sev: eral days. It will keep and not a grain should be wasted. Such food 14 especially good for the youngsters supper, too. Bananas when well ripened are good to serve with the breakfast food if they are liked that way. Eggs as othelets or in a hundred ways, are a most satisfying breakfast dish, A well-made and nicely-seasoned hash 1s another good dish for brenk- fast. For the grownups the boiled din- ner hash is a great favorite, but one must have a good digestion for such tood. Tonst dry, buttered, French fried, or as milk toost Is another good morn- ing dish. Tonst should be well browned and crisp to be palatable when served. Bacon, ham and chops are good breakfast meats, but it 1s better to err in not having meat than “In serving it too often. Breakfast Muffin—Beat one egg, ndd a half cupful of milk, flour (with two teaspoonfuls of baking powder) to make a soft drop batter, then add two tablespoonfuls of melted butter and pour into well-greased muffin pans to bake in a moderate oven.

Or one might use rope silk in the pastel tints for decoration. These delightful lt- tle coats are very simple to cut with sleeves and body in one.

When bake-a-ple day rolled around ft fell to Elizabeth to wrap up the ex- tra half-dozen delicious ones Aunt Bet- ty’ baked and generously set aside for the soldiers. Right under the crust of the most tempting ple of all she sur- reptitiously tucked a small strip of Paper with che words: “If you like this ple call at 22 Bowdoin street Saturday evening for another.” Aunt Betty al- ways baked on Saturday and spent the evening at the Red Cross rooms, leav- ing Elizabeth alone to keep house. It was @ most delicious ple, so thought Lieut. John H—, as he tucked Elizabeth's note inside his pocket. It was Saturday evening be- fore he thought of It again, at just about the same time that Elizabeth was fluffing her hair and wondering if her scheme for a little fun would bring any results When the bell rang Elizabeth flew to the door, a sweet little pink-faced vis- fon in blue. Lieutenant H— was rather taken aback, but Elizabeth was equal to the occasion. “Oh, good even- Ing,” she trilled. “So you are the one that got my note, and you want an- other pie? Well, come right in—I have ‘one for you—so glad 30" liked it.” John H—— was by this time thorough- ly enjoying the most unusual situation. In ® pretty room with # pretty girl, tying up an extremely tempting-look- Ing ple, all for him—well, the fates were kind, thought he. “I must complt!- ment you on your skill as a plemaker, Miss ——.” hesttating to learn her name. Elizabeth looked blank for @ second; then “F—," she added giib- ly, “Elizabeth F—; and now who ts going to accept this ple?” Elizabeth thrilled a little when she learned bis name and his rank, and quite suddenly decided that he was very, very good looking. They chatted plensantly for a few moments, after which Lieutenant H— very properly took his leave. “You may have another pie next Sat- urday evening—tIf you care to call for ft," Elizabeth sald coyly at the door, which invitation was most heartily accepted by the tall Heutenant. ‘The next morning Aunt Betty dis covered that she was a ple short. “Sakes alive! you didn't eat a whole ple Inst night, did you, Elizabeth?” she asked. “Mercy, no! Aunt Betty, Someone called at the door last night and I gave one away. Aunt Betty had Just placed the ple- board on the table when the telephone rang insistently. Elizabeth flew to an- swer it. “Oh, it's for you,” she called. “Lizzie BR 1s sick and they want you to come right over.” “Mercy,” exclaimed Aunt Betty, “and my baking just begun! Well, T must go, that’s plain. You might make that sponge cake, Keep the fire, and don't let the benns’burn.” Elizabeth gazed in dismay at Aunt Betty's figure hurrying down the walk. ‘That meant no ple for Lieutenant H— that night. Oh, if only she could bake one! Whatever had pos sessed her to let him belleve she could —why hadn't she explained? What would he think of her? Disconsolutely she mixed the sponge cake, but was too wise to attempt the ple. Supper time came, and no Aunt Betty. She telephoned instead saying that she “would be home early in the evening. Elizabeth was in despair. Of course “auntie would come while Lieutenant -H— was there! What should she do? It was not the radiant Elizabeth of the week before who answered Lleutenant H—'s ring at the bell, but a very sober lttle girl in a plain “white dress. Hardly was he seated before Aunt Betty bustled in. Eliza- “beth introduced them the best she ceesia) aa dant Betty's frown van- “Ished before the frank smile and cor “dial handshake of the engaging young soldier. “If your nlece will make such delictous pies,” he began when the formalities were over. “Bless my soul,” interrupted Aunt Betty, “did you bake ples today, Elizabeth? You never made ples before in your life—" Looks on the two faces before her stopped her. “Oh, Mr. H— Oh Aunt Betty,” stammered Elizabeth; then realizing that she must elther laugh or cry she began to laugh which was the best thing she could do, She explained everything to her lsteners ‘as gracefully as she could, ending with “{ don't think T am a natural-born deceiver—renlly ; still I don't know why I fooled you hoth #0. Please for give me.” John — laughed good naturedly, seeming neither shocked nor offended, much to Elizabeth's re Hef. Aunt Betty, too, was kind as of course she would be, “You surely did weave a ‘tangled web,’ as the poet says, Elizabeth,” she said with a laugh papier Species ge wr a ee Rye Why Pay ‘More?

A. Brashears in the New York Sun. Cloistered in a fertile valley, where sheer walls cut the great, plateau to a depth of 3,000 fevt, Leslie Spier, a member of the museum's staff, hay found a tribe of wild primitive In- dians still living the lives of their an- cestors and in almost total ignorance of the forward march of civilization. Here on the banks of Cataract creek, which flows northward to cascade In- to the torrents of the Grand Canyon, these aborigines and their forebears have lived for ten centuries with sel- dom a glimpse of the territory lying beyond the canyon top, The chief of the tribe counts the visits of the white man on the fingers of one hand. Anthropologists have poked into the ntmost corners of the earth, from pole to pole; have studied and classified the various tribes of Indians for years, while in some remarkable manner the Havasupa}, living within our very bor- ders, have escaped notice. ‘These Indians—there now are only 175 in the tribe—constitute the only purely aboriginal and primitive com- munity in the United States today. They’ have lived like hermits. The customs and machines, the social ad- vances of the outside world have fail- ed to penetrate the fastness of thelr realm, Not Easy to Visit Them. To reach their home, a 50nile ride over a waterless tract Is necessary. When the brink of the chasm is reached the drop of 3,000 feet has to be made mostly on foot along a hardly perceptible trail, Only small part of the hazardous twelvesnile descent can be made mounted. One must lit- erally cling to the walls of the canyon, In no place is the trail wider than three feet and the animals rub their sides raw through scraping along the side of the canyon. Tn one place the two walls come together and form a corner. Here It is necessary to make a 500-foot drop by zigzagging from wall to wall. ‘This is the most perilous section of the journey for the trail is nothing more than a series of steps. The animals must jump from one to the other, As the men on foot must walk In front their lives are constantly endangered. Should @ pack animal miss its footing the man tn front wonld be knocked to oblivion, Today the Havasupal subsist on a marvelously cultivated tract two and one-quarter miles long and about one- quarter of a mile wide, ‘They depend chiefly on agriculture for their sup- port, but in former days they descend- ed far south down their valley in quest of deer, antelope and bear. The camps are situated along the east side of the creek, which irrigates the Iand so weil that enough food is harvested off this small section of one and one-bult square miles to supply them from sea- son to season, Some of Their Customs, Mr. Spier classifies the tribe as “in- termediary,” since their culture em- braces traits peculiar to the four ad- Jacent tribes of the southwest area, “In general characteristics,” he said, “they lean more toward the Pueblos of northern Mexico. The custom that pre- vails among the Pueblos—that of the men and women working together in the fleld—also exists among the Supal, “The men also make clothing out of buckskin, a domestic trait character- istic of the Pueblos, ‘The Influence of the other adjacent tribes. while slight, may be seen in the construction of various types of huts and tepees. The Havasupai build four different types. ‘There is a log and mud hut common among the Navajos; the conics! thatched tepee built to a great extent among the Mohaves and the square thatehed hut of the Plateau Indians. “among the American Indians,” be rontinued, “the nomadic and warllke {ralts predominate, but the Havasupa? are unique in this respect. They are peaceably inclined and happy in the contemplation of their own works. Expert Corn Growers, The Havasupat live in camps during the summer months along the creek in the midst of thelr farms. They are expert In raising corn crops. ‘The deep canyon bed, Irrigated by the cataract, is an oasis in the arid desert which surrounds the eanyon, Corn, beans, squash and fruit are raised in abundance and the peaches are especially delicious, according to Mr. Spier. ‘The nearby mountains abound in sheep, deer, antelope and wild turkeys, so there is no lack of fresh ment. In winter the tribe takes to the ledges and caves on the mountain side high above the danger levels, Cataract creek always overflows during the rainy season and inundates the land. “Here,” said Mr, Spier, “I found some most interesting caves, unquestiona- bly carved out of the walls by a pre historic race. I found some fragmen- tary pottery in various places which supported my theory. “These caves,” he continued, “serve a8 excellent shelters, and here each family builds its storehouse for pre- serving ite grain and meat. ‘These are constructed out of mud, baked hard and then sealed.” Native Turkish Bath. ‘The chief diversion among the males is to foregather about the vartous sweat lodges to gossip and discuss affairs of the tribe, The sweat lodge 1s thelr Turkish bath, A bed of straw is laid down and a covering placed over it. It Is made Just large enough for one man to crawl Inside Raskets containing red-hot rocks are places se side and water is then poured over them, producing a cloud of steam. ‘The covering holds the steam inside and as soon as the sweating process is deemed to have progressed sufficiently the bather Jumps out for a “shock” in the icy waters of the cataract. AS “each man finishes his bath he Joins the circle, all in breechelouts, for the dls cussion of tribal affairs. | ‘The women do not devote all of [their afternoons to domestic pursuits. “They have « passion for gambling, Mr. “Spier says, and for several hours af- ter the day's toll In the fields they eon- | gregute and play at dice, ‘The gume fs | somewhat like the American game of “craps, although four dice are used, fashioned out of goat's horn, | Today one never finds American Ine dians using anything but matches to light their fires, ‘The Hayasupai still use primitive fire drills, Up to 1910 the stone knife was used exclusively. Lately some modern implements have ‘filtered in through the government agent. They have some horses and a | sinall number of cattle with whieh they are having splendid success. No Marriage Ceremony. Marriage in the canyon is without ceremony. The bride's consent having been won in the orthodox fashion the couple merely live together without further ado. The brave must make payment, however, to the bride's pa- rents, and the customary form is to give his service in the fields of his “in-laws” until the first child has been born, ‘This method of payment Is strictly enforced. ‘There is no divorce recognized among the Havasupal. Of the two chiefs Mr. Spier said: “They have absolutely no prerogatives in the matter of power over the tribe. ‘The tribe as a whole works well to- gether and the members feel a certain definite social consciousness. It is the business of the chiefs to act as media: tors when matters need adjustment, but whatever laws exist are enforeed through public opinion. The chiefs are charged with advising the young women and instructing the youttis growing Into manhood. ‘There is ne capital punishment, and instead of the death penalty for murder the offend Ing party must make a payment in land or goods. Mlegitimacy does no’ exist among them. Every child that is born has « recognized father and n¢ odium attaches to offspring, as hap pens so frequently among people o higher social development.” THE MONITOR The Little Button How dear to the heart of each sray~ bearded soldier ‘Are'the thougiits of the days when he ‘once wore the Blue; Saher tuemory recalls auch as bere trial and danger, HEE And. scenes of the past Fale ‘ara brought “back to Cox his view, i Though long since discard- Ay ing his arms and S equipment, GOP” rere’ one thing « vet. ‘eran most surely will ‘The first thing he sees on $i the form of a comrade Ee Is the litte Bronze But ton he wears on bis CBS? coat Par yo 5 cHorvs RGN the tie Brown Button, WY.

With the approach of late spring and early summer weather, the big hat is coming uct'vely into its own, ‘The first spring Jays demand that the headgear selected shall be small and rather close reefed to withstand wind and weather, and a hat of this type is very smart with narrow straight Hine tailored sult or frock. But big hats are almost uniformly becoming, and when late spring and summer suns begin to shine, a spreading hat brim is a great protection to the eyes aud complexion. When trimming is used on the spring or summer chapeau, flowers usually are first choice. All kinds of garden flowers are lined up in the millinery field this season. Hollyhocks, pop. pies, bleeding hoarts, violets, and roses, of course, and lilies, including those of the pond and calla family, are approved. Ribbon flowers are fashionable, also, some of the smart: est hats showing clusters of very real looking asters, sunflowers, ete., made of narrow ribbon in carefully selected colors.
