From coast to coast unprecedented majorities have been rolled up for harding and Coolidge and with them candidates of the party from United States senators to contables have been swept into office. The democrats have not carried a single state in which the people are allowed to vote. Only in the "solid South, which flaunts the constitution and unlawfully withholds the suffrage from a large percentage of its people, were they able to remain entrenched in power, and even there the republican party made decided gains. Maryland, Kentucky and Tennessee have elected several republicans and complete returns may give the electoral votes of these states to Harding. The republican nominee now has 300 electoral votes with bright prospects of increasing this number to 350, giving Cox only the 127 votes of the solid South. On the question of the league of nations, which President Wilson felt confident could be safely left to the "solemn referendum" of the American people, the electorate has emphatically spoken. This issue was clearly drawn. Cox said he was for going into it; Harding said he was for staying out of it. The people's answer is clear. The emphatic repudiation of Wilsonian autocracy and the burial of democratic vagaries, mismanagement HON. SAMUEL R. McKELVIE Re-elected Governor of Nebraska and camouflaging under an avalanche of votes has given the republicans complete control of both house and senate. The gain in the house will be at least twenty-four and probably ten in the senate. Four States High. New York, Ohio, the home of both Senator Harding and Governor Cox, Illinois and Pennsylvania furnished the largest republican pluralities. That of New York, where Governor Smith, democrat, and Nathan L. Miller, republican, were neck and neck in the gubernatorial fight, was close to the million mark; Ohio was around 150,000; Illinois, at the present ration about 800,000, and Pennsylvania about 400,000.

Recalls Result of 1888. Unofficial results presaged a larger majority in the electoral college for Senator Harding and his running mate, Governor Coolidge, than any since 1888, except alone the vote of 435 for President Wilson in 1912, during the republican "split." The first trial of woman suffrage contributed largely to the republican majorities, and also was a factor in delaying the count in many states. The millions of women's ballots also swelled the popular vote recorded beyond all records. Senator Harding accepted his victory without exultation, stating he was "more given to prayer to God to make me capable of playing my part." To Governor Coolidge, the next vice president, he sent a message saying: "We've got? a real job and we'll tackle it together." Score by States. The following table shows the states with their electoral vote carried by Harding and by Cox and the states still classified as doubtful due to the 'incompleteness of the returns: Harding carried: California 13 Colorado 6 Connecticut 7 Delaware 3 Illinois 29 Indiana 15 Iowa 13 Kansas 10 Maine 6 Massachusetts 18 Michigan 15 Minnesota 12 Nebraska 8 New Hampshire 4 New Jersey 14 New York 45 Ohio 24 Oregon 5 Pennsylvania 38 Rhode Island 5 Utah 4 Vermont 4 Washington 7 West Virginia 8 Wisconsin 13 Wyoming 3 Total ..... 329 Cox carried: Alabama ..... 12 Arkansas ..... 9 Florida ..... 6 Georgia ..... 14 Kentucky ..... 12 Louisiana ..... 10 Mississippi ..... 10 North Carolina ..... 12 South Carolina ..... 9 Texas ..... 20 Virginia ..... 12 States from which insufficient returns have been received and which are classed as doubtful are: Arizona, 3 votes; Idaho, 3; Maryland, 8; Missouri, 18; Montana, 4; Nevada, 6; New Mexico, 3; North Dakota, 5; Oklahoma OMAHA, NEBRASKA, NOVEMBER 4, 1920 Warren G.

Nebraska has returned to her first love, the republican party, with a devotion that makes full amends for any past misdouglas or flirtations, by giving to Harding the biggest vote of confidence ever given in this state to any candidate for any public office. He carried the state by two to one with a plurality of 135,000 over Cox, the democratic nominee. At the same time the voters swept into office every republican candidate for state offices by pluarilities of from 70,000 to 100,000, with the exception of Governor McKelvie, whose plurality ocer Morehead will be about 30,000. Governor McKelvie, who was bitterly opposed by certaine factions within the party, was re-elected, defeating Morehead and Wray, independent Nonpartisan league candidate. The full congressional ticket is republican, Reavis, Jeffris, Evans, McLaughlin, Andrews and Kincaid winning by handsome pluarilities in their respective districts. Congressman Jeffris of the second district, which includes Omaha, was elected two years ago by less than 00 votes, defeating Congressman Lobeck. This year he wins by nearly 10,000 majority over O'Hara. In the state legislature democrats will be as scarce as the proverbial hen's teeth. Results in Douglas County. The decisive republican victory in Douglas county carried into office every candidate of the party with hand some majorities. Not an office is in doubt. Sears Polls High Vote. The contest among twelve candidates for seven judgements of the district court was attended by a situation which involved the similarity of names and resulted in a safe place for the candidate whose name is L.

Fitzgerald was the only democrat elected. FLORIDA DENIES RACE VOTES Colored Citizens Determined to Exercise Constitutional Right—Race Riot Ensues—Race Man Lynched—Several Whites Killed. (Special to The Monitor.) ORLANDO, Fla., Nov. 4.—The casualty list at Oocoe, twelve miles from here, where two whites were shot to death and one Negro was lynched Tuesday in an election riot, and several other Negroes perished when buildings in which they sought shelter were burned, had not reached here tonight. Armed whites were reported patrolling the region and closing in on Negroes who fled to the woods. More than twenty buildings in the negro settlement were burned. Reports from Oocoe said that explosion of considerable amounts of ammunition occurred as the flames swept the buildings and that numerous firearms were found in the ruins. Some reports said five Negroes died in the flames. One Negro woman was among these, it was said. The battle was precipitated by the attempt of Julian Perry, a Negro, to vote after he had been refused the privilege by election judges, on the ground that he had not paid his rol tax. He returned later, armed with a shotgun, but it was taken from him and he was driven away. Vol. VI. No. 19 (Whole No. 279) ATION IS VICTORIOUS --- After dark, according to reports,orry again approached the polls, accompanied by a number of other Negroes. The white citizens at once formed a posse and dispersed the Negroes, who fled to the Negro settlement. The posse followed and witnesses said the Negroes opened fire on the buildings. A member of the posse was wounded. The attackers centered on Perry's HON. A. W. JEFFERIS Re-elected Congressman from the Omaha District house, intent on his arrest. Two of the whites, Leo Borgard and Elmer McDaniels, both former soldiers, were killed in the back yard of the house. A Negro woman said seven or eight armed Negroes were in the Perry house, which ultimately was set on fire to dislodge them, the flames spreading to other buildings. Perry himself apparently was captured and later taken by a mob and lynched. It was said he was taken from an automobile in which he was being carried to the fall after having been treated at a hospital. LIFTING. LIFT, TOO! RACE OFFICER RESIGNS POST IN WAR RISK INSURANCE BUREAU Was Former Lieutenant in the 367th Infantry — Embarrassment by "Underlings" of Whites in the Department Given as Reason LIEUTENANT WILLIAMS RESENTS TREATMENT WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 4. Lieutenant J. Williams Clifford, former officer of the 387th Infantry, Ninety-second division, A. E. F., who for over a year looked after the interests of colored men in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, recently tendered his resignation as their special representative because of continual limitations of his official duties by white superiors. In an interview recently, Lieutenant Clifford said: 'Little by little certain officials in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance have attempted to give my section trouble simply because of their hatred for the Negroes. Upon one occasion it was claimed that a personal letter was sent out from my office in a franked envelope without a stamp, although the envelope was never produced. Another time I was ordered to stop signing letters in my section to colored soldiers, and friends because they wished them to be signed by a white man. This I refused to do and I was given to understand that if I did not do so, they would get someone who would carry out their orders. It was only after a two weeks' fight that I was permitted to sign my name to letters originating in my section. Later I was forced to send my dictated letters down to another office where a white high school graduate approved and signed them, signing my own signature to my own letters before they were sent out. This was all done because there was fear that I would persist in helping colored ex-service men in matters pertaining to their insurance, death claims and allotment claims in a way that might embarrass the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. "Realization that there was need for a colored man in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance to look after the insurance, compensation and allotment claims of colored soldiers. I succeeded in having myself appointed to the position during the present administration. My official designation has been special representative of the Colored Soldiers and Sailors in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. By articles in the colored newspapers and magazines and through the enrollment of many volunteer workers including ministers doctors, lawyers, insurance agents, social workers. Young Men's Christian associations, Young Women's Christian association, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People fraternal organizations, Urban leage workers, and other community service organizations, I have been able to stimulate interest in government life insurance among colored discharged soldiers to the end that millions of dollars worth of insurance have been saved and added to the economic strength of the Negro race. This work, according to letters over the signature of my superlors has been carried on very efficiently. In fact it has been common talk in the bureau that the colored service men's section for its size is one of the most efficient units in the entire institution. "The policy of segregation and discrimination enforced by the present administration is un-American and despicable in the extreme. Merit and ability count for naught if you have a black face. In most every government department the colored members of my race are huddled together in some obscure corner or room and kept away from the other employees just as if they are infected with some infectious disease. Colored soldiers who fought on the bloody battlefields of France and contributed to the glorious American victory who are now working in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance are not permitted to eat with the other employees of the building in the war risk restaurant."

A., Archdeacon of Colored Work of the Diocese of Texas) ored Work of the Diocese of Texas) The church among colored people is feeling the impulses of a new life. Of course, for some time, a more or less definite and practical interest has been taken in the colored work; but it has been during the last few years that a strong progressive movement has been actuating the church's mission to colored people. By the election and consecration of two colored bishops, the Episcopal church declared not only her full confidence in the manhood, intelligence, and personal integrity of the colored American, but also her appreciation of the prime importance of this phase of her work. By opening the way to the highest office within the gift of the church, she set her seal upon the sincerity of her faith in the supreme Fatherhood of God and the universal Brotherhood of Man. The Episcopal church is conservative. She moves quietly but steadily. She does much thinking and deliberation before entering new paths or attempting new methods. She sets much store in precedent, and believes most strongly in the value and integrity of her constitution and canons. In her conservatism lies her strength. She is not swayed by mere emotion, neither is she taken off her feet by bandwagon tactics. So that this step which the church has taken is deeply significant, not only as a movement forward, but as a movement forward after great deliberation and much thought. No factin r section or group has any special consideration; it is the whole church acting by the grace of the spirit of God. The Nation-Wide Campaign, which is a movement for the deepening, strengthening and propagation of the church's life, has revealed the great importance, the immediate needs and the wonderful opportunities of the colored work. She has determined to spare no effort or pains in the attempt to give the colored American the opportunity to share in the fullness of her faith and spiritual life—to make the church felt among colored people as never before. A few facts about the colored work will show that the mission has not been without results. This information has been compiled from the "Living Church Annual" for 1920. These figures, of course, are below the actual numbers. In several cases colored congregations are not recorded as such. Also the number of communicants is not given for some congregations. And again, a considerable number of colored communicants are members of congregations not exclusively colored. In comparing our statistics with those of other religious bodies, it must be remembered that we record only those who are active members and who actually communicate, whereas other bodies allow more latitude in their figures. These are distributed among the eight ecclesiastical provinces, into which the American church is divided, as follows: Province Clergy Congrega-tions Communi-cants 1. New England ..... 5 6 2,142 2. New York and New Jersey ..... 23 23 6,193 3. Washington ..... 36 69 7,276 4. Sewanee ..... 53 71 5,573 5. Mid-West ..... 9 11 2,985 6. Northwest ..... 3 6 512 7. Southwest ..... 10 20 1,282 8.

Then why should we as a race refrain from taking advantage of that which should and can be ours? The majority of our people at the present date can see the advantage of an extensive educational training, but to our great regret, we still have a few mossbacks who seem to think that as long as they can count the contents of their pay envelope they have all the education necessary for them.

They have a chance to reach the point where they will not have to subject themselves to the insults and indignities now showered upon them because of the meager positions which they hold. They are hindered from taking positions where there is a chance for advancement because of lack of educational training. Is it not about time for us to see that we will never be able to gain the respect and recognition due us from the Caucasian race and never be able to place ourselves on the level with them until the illiterateness now prevalent among many of our race is entirely obliterated? Then why should the parents of children sit back with an air of importance and say: "If John wishes to attend school alright and if not alright?" This seems to be the attitude prevalent among many of the parents of our race. Then, on the other hand, why should the children who have the advantage of obtaining an education shirk their duty and not take advantage of that which their parents, who see the necessity of an education, are willing to make sacrifices in order that their sons or daughters may obtain and benefit from that which was denied them? The argument that after the education is received it is of no value to us is often put forth. The reason that the majority of us find no outlet for our education after obtaining it is because we sit back and expect opportunities to come rushing to us, we expect all obstacles to be automatically removed from our path merely because we have an education. We expect to gain without the least bit of effort on our part unforetoid success. Every nation, every race, every person has to make sacrifices in order to gain success and we as a race must learn to make sacrifices for though we may not benefit by them our posterity and others to follow will. If the men and women of today push themselves forward and instill it in the minds of the men and women of tomorrow, that when the uneducated Negro is in the minority then and not until then will we be able to stand forth with the eyes of the world upon us and receive that which we demand. Erects' Monument in a Prominent Square—United States Representatives on Scene. (By the Associated Negro Press.) MOUPHOIS, France, Nov. 4.—France honored Negro soldier heroes last week by dedicating a monument in honor of the men who fell in the great battle of the late war. The monument stands in one of the prominent squares in this city and is a beautifully sober and impressive piece of statuary. When the 272d United States infantry left here its members left money in the care of authorities for the erection of the monument. General Quillet and other distinguished French army officers were present. The United States was represented by Colonel R. John West, Lieutenant Colonel T. Bentley Mott and other officers. President Miller and sent an address which was read by General Quillet. TEXAS NORMAL COLLEGE WINS GREAT HONORS (By the Associated Negro Press.) DALLAS, Tex., Nov. 4.—One of the finest exhibits at the annual State Fair, now being held here, is that presented by the Prairie View State Normal College of Prairie View, a Negro school. This school is under the direction of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas and enjoys a fine reputation among the educational institutions in the state. FIGHT BETWEEN COLORED DUCTOR STARTS RACE RIOT (Bv the Associated Negro Press.) PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 4.—A fight between Walter C. Lillie, Negro, and a street car conductor precipitated a race riot here last Monday night that was not quelled until a large force of police arrived on the scene of the conflict. One Negro was shot and twenty-nine men and eight women were arrested and landed in jail as a consequence of the disturbance. MILITARY HONORS ARE GIVEN COLORED DEAD (By the Associated Negro Press.) WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 4.—Full military honors were accorded at the Arlington National Cemetery over the bodies of forty-eight white enlisted men, then over three colored soldiers, and finally over the graves of the four officers, all of whom died overseas. The American Legion, the American Red Cross, the War Mothers' Committee, the American Women's Legion and detachments from the army rendered the final tributes. There was an unusually large number of mourners. SHAW DEFEATS HAMPTON BY SCORE OF 13 TO 0 for Six Years—Opened the "Big League" Football Season With a Clean, Snappy, and Sportsman-like Game. HAMPTON, Va., Nov. 4.—The "big league" football season opened last Saturday with a clean, sportsman-like game between Hampton and Shaw—the first game in six years between these institutions. After a long vacation the Shaw boys invaded the Hampton Institute campus and played one of the finest games played by them since the good old days of 1909-10. The play started with Hampton's kick to Shaw, and then Shaw started her heavy work on the Hampton line, but made no progress and was forced to kick. Hampton opened up desperately on the Shaw line, making valuable gains, in spite of the superior weight of the "Tar Heels." Shaw was in great danger when Hampton tried a forward pass which was intercepted by a Shaw man. Here the "Seasiders" lost a chance for a touchdown. Shaw tried a few end runs, but the gains were only minor. Then a forward pass advanced them 30 yards. This seemed to weaken the "Seasiders." Shaw could now go through their line, and Shaw penetrated the Hampton line like a shell from the "Busy Bertha" going through a newspaper. Then Hampton was in the danger zone. A little pow-wow by the "Tar Heels" wasted a few more minutes. Shaw came back and sent up another pigskin—"zep"—that fell in Williams' arms. Hampton had the ball again at the right time. It was at this point that "Ike" Wright made a star of himself. A powerful kick sent the ball soaring to Shaw. "Ike" was pushing Hardy so closely he fumbled the kick and Grant covered the ball for Hampton, putting Shaw in the same fix that Hampton had just been in. The quarter ended with Shaw bending low. The rooters began to sing "Cheer the Weary Traveler." Some one did cheer those weary "Tar Heels," because they came back strong. A little fumble which was covered gave Hampton the ball again. Temple made a long run, after which a heavy penalty of 15 yards put Shaw up against it. Hampton had first down and one yard to go for a touchdown. A great argument resulted, but the wise counsel of the football genius, Mr. Wilkinson, soon convinced the "Tar Heels" that he knew what he was doing. Did Hampton go over? No! Shaw sat down like a lion at bay. Four times Hampton rushed the line and four times they were hurled back. Shaw came in possession of the ball and kicked out of that dangerous place. "Ike" Wright took his old job back in quarterback. After a few more runs by the Hampton team, the first half ended, with the score 0-0. Shaw ruled Supreme Shaw ruled supreme during the entire second half. It began with the kick. Shaw kicked to Hampton and the "Seasiders" made a commendable gain with it. Then some more line plunging made Hampton look good, but there was just one fumble too many. Cook, the fast Shaw end scoped up the ball and made the first touchdown. Hampton began to weaken fast. All hope and courage was gone. Their line was broken at will and a heavy barrage of forward passes gave Shaw another touchdown. The lineup: Shaw—Harris, right end; Crawford, right tackle; Delaney, right guard; Stewart, center; Crump, left guard; Summerville, left tackle; Cook, left end; Anderson (cantain), quarterback; Tolliver, right halfback; Curtis, left halfback; Hardy, fullback; Hampton—Wright, right end; Bradby, right tackle; Coleman, right guard; Gayle, center; Smothers, left guard; Banks, left tackle; Grant, left end; Temple, quarterback; Wood (captain), right halfback; McLaren, left halfback; Williams, fullback.

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED MICRO PRESS FIRST IN SERVICE "NEGRO ANCESTRY;" WHAT OF IT? AN adroit appeal to American prejudice was made last week to defeat Senator Harding for the presidency by putting out a story that one of his ancestors had African blood in his veins, or, in other words, that he was of Negro ancestry. We are not told how remote such ancestry was. We strongly suspect that had his ancestry been traced far enough back it would have been found that the story was true; not only of Senator Harding, but of every man and woman wherever he may be found, who prides himself upon being and honestly believes himself to be "white." For Holy Writ states, and science verifies the statement, that "of ONE BLOOD God hath made all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, * * * * and hath determined the bounds of their habitation." Just when this "one blood" parted from the parent stream and flowed into such diversified channels that it lost its original characteristics and became, for example, "Caucasian blood," of itself rich and ennobling, and "Negro blood," of itself poor and degrading, science has not yet unanimously determined. Upon this important decision the world awaits with bated breath. Now since the story of Senator Harding's "Negro ancestry" was started by a learned professor in an Ohio college, it must be that he had in mind Harding's descent from Adam, whom many contend, with much to support their claim, that he was an African, and if not an African or "Negro," he was certainly not a white man, but a colored man, Adamah or Adam meaning in Hebrew, dark or reddish. Then, too, it is contended by other learned savants that the Garden of Eden was in Africa. All of which would seem to bear out the learned professor's somewhat startling assertion, quite shocking to American ears, you know, that among Harding's remote ancestors, very remote, he means, were persons of "Negro blood." But granting that it were true that not very far back among Harding's ancestors were persons of Negro blood, what of it? If, even granting that such a strain of blood is a mental and moral handicap, which, of course, The Monitor does not admit, he has risen in spite of it to eminence and usefulness, ought not that fact be taken as a credential of intellectual strength and moral worth which should be considered an asset rather than a liability? Even were it true that Harding was of "Negro ancestry," there would be nothing to be ashamed of in that fact. The day will come even in the United States of America when men and women will point with pride to the fact that they are of "Negro ancestry;" because of its attestation to the truth that men of character and righteousness can rise superior to conditions that would hold them down and that after all the thing that counts is real manhood and womanhood, upright and upstanding. McKELVIE'S RE-ELECTION THE Monitor is pleased with the re-election of Governor McKelvie. He made a clean, manly straight forward campaign. He had a hard fight on his hands and won out. He is to be congratulated and we believe that Nebraska is to be congratulated upon his re-election. We believe he gave us a good administration during his last term and will give us a much better one because of his past experience. It was for this reason that The Monitor supported him and we are gratified that those who look to The Monitor for advice stood loyally for Governor McKelvie and were not led astray by the seductive efforts to swing their votes to Judge Wray. Returns show, as The Monitor stated last week, that Wray could not be elected and that votes for him from our people meant votes for Morehead. Our people were not fooled and we believe that they will have no cause to regret having helped elect Samuel R. McKelvie. 4 THE ELECTION AS we go to press it is conceded that the republicans have swept the country with a victory that is unprecedented. It was very evident some weeks ago that the democrats knew they were beaten. The childish and petulent tactics to which they resorted was an admission of defeat as The monitor maintained. The republican party should be gratified with the vote of confidence which it has been given by the American people. It has an opportunity, of which we hope it will avail itself, to retain a permanent place in the hearts of the people of this republic. We hope that it will rise to the dignity of the occasion. That our people played a tremendous part in this victory will, we believe, be cheerfully conceded. We are hopeful that in return for our services such constructive legislation as will safeguard our constitutional rights will be speedily enacted. We in common with other American citizens look hopefully forward to the stabilizing of conditions in this country which will make for greater and more permanent prosperity. SUICIDE or self-murder is a mortal sin. No one has any more right to take his own life than he has to take the life of another. The halo of glory and martyrdom with which many ecclesiastics of the Roman obedience would surround the late Mayor of Cork cannot conceal the hideous fact that his act was one of deliberate suicide. It was nothing else. His services for his people cause and country cannot be compared to that of a soldier who volunteers for a hazardous undertaking with apparently certain death confronting him. They are not parallel cases. Mayor MacSwiney committed suicide. How then the Roman Catholic church law which forbids Christian burial to suicides could be suspended in his case has given rise to serious questionings in the minds of many. In the face of growing disregard for the gift of human life, manifested in many ways and in many quarters, there is no need for clear proclamation of the truth that suicide is a mortal sin and that suicides or self-murderers banish themselves from the presence of God, who has given them the gift of human life as a sacred trust which He will require at our hands.

Something over half of this amount has been contributed by national headquarters of the Y. W. C. A., the central branch here and other sources, leaving about $8,000 to be given by our people, a very small sum when divided among the total population of our group. This sum ought to be gladly and cheerfully overgiven. I ought to be considered a privilege to contribute to the welfare of our girl and young womanhood through the work of this organization. We are prosperous as never before. There are many men and women who can and ought to give sums ranging from $100 down in this campaign. We hope everyone will respond to the appeal being made in this drive and esteem it a privilege to help carry on this good work for our young womanhood. GIVE and GIVE LIBERALLY for the work of the Y. W. C. A. Jar loose and come across and go over the top. HINTS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE There are so many things that can come under this method of cooking that I will not take up much time with it. Sauteing is frying in very little fat, while deep fat frying is as its name implies, frying in deep fat. For deep fat frying the fat should be hot enough to brown a crumb of bread to a nice golden brown color in about one minute. Sixty seconds should be allowed for dough mixtures such as crullers, fritters, etc. Care in draining articles that have been cooked in deep fat is a thing to be very careful of, as otherwise the articles will be greasy and the result will not be satisfactory. To mend a crack in the oven or range, mix equal parts of common wood ashes and salt with water and use as a filling, and you will find it to prove hard and lasting. To prevent the odor of cabbage or cauliflower when cooking put same on in cold water, and to prevent same from going through the house sprinkle a little cedar dust on the stove. In breaking eggs for custards always take out the little white speck around the yolk, as it will prove very disagreeable to the taste and never cooks well. If when making pastry you melt the butter or lard and beat to a cream before mixing with the flour only half the quantity is required. Before using new enameled cooking ware grease same with a little butter. This prevents the enamel from cracking. Next week will start a series of combinations of dishes with the idea in mind of showing those things which go best together. Watch for our Thanksgiving menus. N. W.

Dramatist, Poet and Humorist A NEW AND WONDERFUL FEATURE Miss Spicer is one of Nebraska's most noted dramatists, humorists and poets. She is a woman of great ability and renown, having won many high honors in the performance of her profession. She is a prodigy of mankind. Miss Sirilda Belva Spicer was born in Bedford, Ia. She received her early training in College View and the schools of this city. Later she taught school in Sedalia, Mo., and Banner, Neb. She instructs in dramatics both in and out of Lincoln. She has won great renown by her many noted performances. In addition to her ability as a DON'T! halfway insure yourself. DON,T! buy an Ordinary Life Insurance Policy and expect it to pay your bills when you are disabled by sickness or accident. Life insurance is a good thing to have, but it serves only its own purpose. OUR POLICY is designed to fill the need of the workingman and his family; to provide them with means to pay their expenses when they are laid up by sickness and cannot work, and their pay check has stopped. We pay weekly benefits to men, women and children for sickness and accident ranging from $1.50 to $22.50 weekly, and in addition also pay a liberal accidental death benefit. OUR SPECIAL EMERGENCY BENEFITS provide for the payment of funeral Bills, Doctor Bills, Nurses and Hospital Fees, Drugs and Medicines, and for the general relief of the beneficiary in the event the assured one dies from sickness or disease for which benefits are otherwise payable. Over $400,000.00 in Benefits Paid to Omaha People Since January 1, 1920 116 South 14th Street dramatist she is reputed to be one of the best "readers" in this section. Among some of her poems are: "My Rose," "The Last Trip," "The Product of His Hand" (a memorial to Abraham Lincoln), and "Be a Star at What You Are." She has also written several verses entitled: "A Lady Sold at Auction," "The Bad Squire," "Sally Ann's Experience," "The Buying of the Railroad Ticket," "Women Gamblin" and "A Love Scene." All of these she has played on the stage. She is now taking special subjects in the University of Nebraska. Miss Spicer is one of whom Lincoln may well be proud. She is open for engagements for entertainments at churches, clubs and theatres. She may be found at 2009 J street, Lincoln, Neb. THE MONITOR St. Athanasius' School, Brunswick, Ga.

In addition to these we have nine large and a number of smaller mission schools scattered throughout the South and Southwest. Four periodicals are published by colored churchmen in the interest of the colored work. The standards of the church are high and impartial. They do not admit of compromise. The question of race does not enter into the demands of priests and people. A black priest must have the same training and qualifications as a white priest; and the colored people of the church are expected to strive for and to exhibit the same character, dignity and self-control as are the other people of the church. In this respect, we venture to say, the Episcopal communion is unique. The dignity and beauty of the church's worship, its emphasis of Scripture, prayer and praise, its reverence and devotion, appeal to the apprehension and appreciation of intelligent people. Here is a good place to say that the Episcopal church appeals to the intelligent people of both races. Whatever the future may bring forth, our church is now the church of the minority, and she is such because the types of people to whom she appeals are in the minority in every community. The church, then, has for the colored American what no other religious organization has or can have. Her impartial standards for priests and people, her high regard for self-discipline and intellectual values. emphasis upon character and conduct, her insistence upon the integrity of the home and the marriage vows, her beautiful, reverent and instructive worship, her opening the doors to the highest office within gift of the church to all races, her splendid examples of Christian brotherhood and fellowship—all these things make the church unique in the religious life of the American people. The colored American needs the same things of moral integrity, intellect, and the higher values that anyone else needs. The church alone not only recognizes this, but insists and demands them of him as of all other of her children.
