In the council chamber, Mayor Smith merely called the old council to order, ordered a roll call by City Clerk Hunter and spoke briefly before giving the gavel to Mr. Dahlman. Commissioner Towl alone was absent, having been compelled to go to Falls City on business. He sent a telegram of congratulations. "I bespeak the loyal support of every citizen for the upbuilding of a bigger and better Omaha," said Mayor Smith as he wished the incoming administration success. Gives Pledges of Harmony. Mr. Dahlman was elected head of that department of public affairs and president of the city council by roll call on motion of Mr. Zimman. Mr. Butler escorted the new mayor to his chair. Amid enthusiastic cheering Mayor Dahlman signalled for silence and briefly thanked his supporters for their loyalty. "It is a great honor to receive a reception such as this," he said. "I want to thank members of the commission for giving me this position. "Members of the United Seven realize the responsibility placed upon them.

HOUSE BLOCKS TINKHAM BILL Members Shy From Disfranchisement Question—It is Clearly Demonstrated That Congress Has No Disposition to Fight Flagrant Violation of Constitution. (By the Associated Negro Press.) WASHINGTON, D. C., May 19. The most remarkable parliamentary discussion in the present Congress, and which, by the way, was barely touched upon by the daily press took place in the House of Representatives, Friday, May 6. The discussion was precipitated by Representative Tinkham of Massachusetts, who rose to "offer a resolution on a question of high personal privilege." When it was discovered by the Republican floor leader, Congressman Mondell, of Wyoming, what it was all about, together with a number of other leaders, various objections and points of order were offered. In brief, the resolution was on the enforcement of the 14th & 15th amendments to the Constitution. After reciting the various breeches of constitutional privileges of voting, in certain sections of the United States, the Committee on Census is authorized to proceed forthwith to make diligent inquiry respecting the extent to which the right to vote is denied or obrived to citizens of the United States in any state in violation of the Constitution of the United States." Representative Tinkham was compelled to confine his utterances to the point of order, to-wait: that the resolution "is not privileged under the rules, and not privileged under the Constitution, and does not present a question of privilege before the House." This point was raised by Floor Leader Mondell. After long and, in one or two instances, acrimonious debate, the speaker ruled, going into detail on the subject, sustaining the point. Immediately, Representative Tinkham respectfully appealed from the decision of the chair, following which Mr. Mondell sought to have the motion laid on the table, but upon the personal request of Speaker Gillett, the vote was taken. It resulted in the vote being sustained, Yeas, 234; nays, 47; not voting, 98. "A Matter of Record." How the votes went on this matter is now a matter of official record, and makes interesting reading. While representative Mondell assured Mr. Tinkham that there was ample means, under the rules, to introduce the resolution, and have it come up in the proper way, Mr. Tinkham rejoined that he introduced it during the last Congress, and thereafter was not admitted to the door to look at it. And that is the crux of the whole subject. Representative Tinkham has sought by every manner and means to bring to the attention of the republic, thr Congress, the manner in which citizens are disfranchised, and Congress has wilfully blocked every effort. The facts are clear: Congress, Republican or Democratic, does not propose to tackle the subject of disfranchisement, and if it is brought close to the front, it will be blocked at every stage of the game. This is cold blooded truth, and facing the issue, Representative Tinkham informed The Associated Negro Press his plan to bring the subject before Congress, and he declares that he is not yet through, that public sentiment will soon demand an investigation, just as it is now with peonage. Senator Penrose, of Pennsylvania, has manifested deep concern on the results of the defeat of the Civil Rights Bill of his state. He is particularly moved by the charges of Colored newspapers in his home state, and a number of leaders, that the bill was defeated thru his change of attitude. To this he has said his attitude did not change, and that he still believes in civil rights for Colored Americans. Those who make the charge, base their contention on a vicious attack on the bill in one of the Penrose organs. LIBERIAN MISSION VISIT PHILADELPHIA (By The Associated Negro Press.) PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 19—The plenary commission to the United States from the republic of Liberia were the guests of the city of Philadelphia. The party included C. B. King, President of Liberia; Chief Justice Johnson, of the Supreme Court, and other high officials of the republic. They arrived at Broad street station at noon, and were met by a number of prominent Colored people of this city. Escorted by a guard of mounted police, they went directly to a hotel at Broad and Catherine streets. The commission was welcomed to the city by Mayor Moore at a reception in the city hall. President King was presented to the Mayor by Bishop W. H. Heard, of this city. President King responded to Mayor Moore's address of welcome and expressed his pleasure at the cordial reception given him here. Following the reception, the President's party was escorted to Independence Hall, where the Liberty Bell was wreathed by them. A large crowd gathered and was addressed by the Mayor, President King and others of the party. At the close of the addresses, the mayor proposed three cheers for the President of Liberia, who showed that he was acquainted with American customs by giving three cheers more for the Mayor of the city of Philadelphia. The cheers were given with a will. JURY FAILS TO FIND TRUE BILL AGAINST WOMAN (By the Associated Negro Press.) DAYTONA, Fla., May 19.—The grand jury in session at Deland has found no true bill in the charge of mourder lodged against Gussie Nero a Daytona woman, Colored, who conducts a "beauty parlor" for Negroes in that section of the city. Gussie Nero, last November, was alleged to have buried an axe in the head of her spouse during an altercation and has been out on bail since that time.

DALLAS, Tex., May 19.—A woman sat in a tumble down shack in the Negro quarter on Hill Street here and stoically refused to get excited over the battle involving millions attorneys are waging about her claims to oil lands. Lillie Gussie Taylor, who explains to visitors that her "health is poorly and ain't got no great hand to talk nohow," merely shrugged her shoulders when reporters told her she had won her suit in the Louisiana State Supreme court that established her title, insofar as state courts are concerned, to what her attorneys declare is the biggest producing lease in the great Homer, La, oil fields. $5,500,000 Worth of Oil The land about three miles from the town of Homer, has already produced about $5,500,000 worth of oil, according to Foster, Looney and Wilkinson, Shreveport, La., the law firm representing her. A suit pending in the Circuit Court of Appeals at New Orleans will, with the state court verdict, complete establishment of her title if she wins it, her lawyers said and will probably make her one of the richest Colored women in the world. dled closer to the dim flame of the oil lamp that, behind drawn blinds, flickered its rays about the darkened room and reflected from what was once a red rug. The woman's fight for fortune centers about land in Claibourne Parish, Louisiana, that she once abandoned as worthless, lawyers declared. She moved off it after inheriting it from her parents and, according to claims in the suit, George West, another Negro, squatted on it on alleged pretense of title. It is West with whom she is fighting. Oil Companies Involved. Two of the greatest oil companies in the Homer field are much involved by the suit. The Gulf Refining Company leased the land from West and has been producing oil. On the strength of the woman's claim the Caddo Central has obtained a lease from her and should she win the Caddo will claim oil rights and Lillie's attorneys will demand reimbursement for the oil already obtained. The exact amount of money Lillie will realize if she wins will be hard to estimate. The lands are variously "Ah ain't got this money yet," she reminded friends today who sought to plan for her what to do with "all that money." She punctuated the remark with a cough and drew a ragged shawl about her shoulders and hud- DISCUSS "ATLANTA SPEECH" WITH COOLIDGE Vice-President Declares Southern Trip Has Not Changed His View-Point. Believe Both Races Must Work For Adjustment. (By the Associated Negro Press.) WASHINGTON, D. C., May 19.—Vice-President Calvin Coolidge, in an exclusive interview for The Associated Negro Press, declared his interest in seeing a fair adjustment of the Federalized National Guard order of former Secretary of War Baker, which is now before Secretary of War Weeks for consideration. Vice-president Coolidge pointed to the manner in which Massachusetts dealt with the problem while he was governor. The soldiers were organized, and as governor, Mr. Coolidge promised that the state would stand behind the guards as long as the present order obtained. In the course of the interview the assurance was given that it is the purpose of the present Administration to be fair and just with all, that from time to time there will be developments in demonstrations of justice that will prove to the people his sincerity of purpose of the Arministration. That "Atlanta Speech." The Associated Negro Press representative discussed with the vice-president his speech in Atlanta, which caused such a round of criticism and protest. It was pointed out that the Colored people of the country generally had been greatly impressed with his manly stand for justice during the police strike in Boston, and were highly pleased with his fine patriotic expressions in the course of his speech of acceptance; however, it was feared that his southern visit, under the spell of southern entertainment had changed his view-point. Without hesitation, the Vive-President declared that his view-point had not been changed and that he is just the Atlanta Speech, but he did not offer an apology for it, he stated that the only wise course to pursue is for the people of both races who live in the South to assume a friendly attitude toward each other. The Record of Soldiers. "The record of the Colored soldiers in the World War will ever remain a lasting monument to their unselfish patriotism, and will not be forgotten. There is nothing anywhere to excel it, and in the affairs of the country, they must be justly considered. It is remarkable that the records show that while certain wealthy whites were ONAIRE WOMAN IS TO MILLIONS Has Rendered Decision Estab- e Taylor To Valuable Oil Lands In Reputed Wealth To Which Wom- TO ESTABLISH HEIRSHIP In America If She Secures Her Seems To Be No Doubt.

Her lawyers, finding her in poverty, accepted the suit on a 50-50 basis—getting half the winnings. She has also disposed of a part of her share in the claims, it was announced. BERT WILLIAMS (By the Associated Negro Press.) CHICAGO, Ill., May 19—Bert Williams, the noted comedian, is in Chicago, playing at the Studebaker Theatre and scoring an extremely popular success. The Studebaker is one of the big houses in the loop district, being situated next door to the famed Auditorium Hotel, and is frequented only by the elite of Chicago's theater going people. Percy Hammond, Chicago's first critic of things dramatic and otherwise, has this to say concerning the inimitable "Bert": "The play differs but little from other oratories of its casual kind, containing as it does many New York belles, some dancers, singers and comedians who perform the customary feats. But every now and then Mr. Williams appears, and by his spacious pantomine and anecdotal singing alleviates such enum as may beset you. That is, of course, in case you like Mr. Williams' quiet fooling and that you find the average Broadway revue not without its melancholy elements." ILLINOIS REGIMENT HAS BEEN FEDERALIZED Famous 8th Will Become Part of Permanent Fighting Force—Col. Duncan to Continue Command. (By the Associated Negro Press.) CHICAGO, Ill., May 19.—The 8th Regiment is, to become a part of the Federalized National Guard in July. This has been definitely determined by the War Department through a recently issued order calling for the regiment's mobilization at that time. This army unit will be the only organization in the service that will be officered by Colored men. Otis B. Duncan of Springfield, Illinois, is Colonel of the regiment and will be continued in command. fleeing from military service, I know of only one Colored person who attempted to be a slacker, and I am not so sure about that." It seems to be the desire of Vice-President Coolidge to have justice administered by example rather than by precept. He seems to be of the opinion that one upstanding act of justice will go farther towards helping the cause of racial adjustment than many discourses. That Mr. Coolidge desires the good will of his fellow citizens everywhere, there seems to be no doubt. As a team-mate of President Harding, the Vice-President seems splendidly adapted.

"THE KING IS DEAD: LONG LIVE THE KING" In olden time this was the fashion of heralding a change of rulers. The principle still survives even in democratic America. Omaha has just this week noted the passing of one city administration and the accession of another. Exit Smith—enter Dahlman. The new city commissioners have a splendid opportunity for civic service. They have promised a good administration. The people expect them to keep their pledge. The Monitor believes that the new commissioners realize their responsibility and will strive to measure up to it. So here is wishing the new administration success. SHOULD BE A GOOD SPORT LATE dispatches from Lincoln indicate great dissatisfaction on the part of Chas. Bryan, brother of W. J. Bryan in the City Commission refusing to elect him as mayor on the grounds that this was his ambition in running and the reason he was accorded the highest vote in the recent election. There is much reason in Mr. Bryan's contention. Viewing it from a standpoint of majority votes, he is due it. But we are somewhat acquainted with this form of election ourselves. There is no binding force contained in the law governing city elections of this nature, which would justify this expectation. We would advise Mr. Bryan to accept the position given him and bring pressure to bear either on the commission as a part of it, or upon the legislature to enact a law which would determine that the candidate receiving the greatest number of votes in a city election should be designated the chief executive of same. Otherwise we would advise that he take consolation in the fate of our present City Commissioner Dan Butler, who has several times had the same experience or let his brother W. J. B. tell him some of his national experiences. But Dan is a good sport, so is W J. B., but Chas. seems to take the matter rather seriously. DENBY VS. HAITI THE Haitian Commission is reported to have presented to the Secretary of the Navy Denby recently a memorial on the Americo-Haitian controversy. Mr. Denby is reported to have expressed his own opinion of the matter in the following language. "Rot, I am sick of this same old rot, etc., etc." The Monitor expressed a hope in its last week's issue that favorable consideration would be given to this very important matter by the new administration in whom it has implicit faith. We have before us a copy of this memorial and have carefully studied it in detail to convince ourselves of its truth and worth. We find many things contained in the document that would be very difficult, if not impossible to manufacture, if it had no truth for its foundation. We are therefore of the opinion that most of it is true and ought to be given careful study and favorable consideration by Mr. Denby before he records himself as classing it among the "not." The document sets forth many specific instances of cruelty and oppression, consisting of murder, imprisonment and humiliation. These, we contend, cannot well be ignored if this country is to live up to its profession of democracy. We trust that this administration will not set up one code of justice to be administered to the weaker and less powerful nations, and another for those more fortunate. This would be in violation of the fundamental principles of democracy, and in direct contradiction to the policy and sentiment which gave success to the present administration. Twelve millions of colored people contributed largely to this success. They cannot be ignored in matters of simple justice. Until only recently, Mexico kept our armies stationed on her border to prevent the revolution INSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. Not to Be Abridged.

Our decision was to keep hands off because it was an independent nation, and should be left alone to work out its own problems to suit its own people als. This was justice. Our memories are fresh with the present controversy in Congress over the treaty which will give to Columbia a handsome $25,000,000,000 heart balm for the cecession of Panama. We know the sentiment of the present administration on this point. In both of these, we believe that the stand taken was in the interest of harmony and encouraging these nations to work more independently in solving their own problems. We weighing these on their merits and comparing them with the Haitian Republic, we cannot see how the latter can be so easily thrown among the "rot." We hope it is not because the Haitians are weak and helpless in the matter. The Monitor has great faith in every member of the present Cabinet, and we hope the Secretary of the Navy will reconsider his statement to the Associated Press, and have an unbiased investigation of this situation, and that he will speedily undo a great wrong which has been so long inflicted upon this little republic. HOWARD'S APPOINTMENT THE Monitor heartily congratulates Perry W. Howard upon his appointment to a United States attorneyship and we no less heartily congratulate Attorney Daugherty upon Mr. Howard's selection. He will add strength to the Attorney-General's corps of legal rights. Mr. Howard's appointment is a fitting and deserve recognition of faithful and efficient services rendered during the last campaign. A lawyer of ability and a courteous gentleman from the ground up Perry W. Howard will make good in the special attorneyship to which he has been nominated. REFUSES TO DISCHARGE (By The Associated Negro Press.) ...NEW YORK, N. Y., May 19.)-Refusal to comply with an order to discharge its Negro employees and discontinue their employment in its offices has forced the "The World Tomorrow" to move its quarters from 118 East 28th street to 108 Lexington avenue. The orders came from the owners of the 28th street building. In a public statement to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, of the situation the editors of "The World Tomorrow" say: "We should have refused such a demand on principle, but in addition we are proud of the fact that one of the most faithful of our office force is a Colored woman. That her race should be discriminated against in more than one office building in New York city is a practical denial of the fundamental principles of brotherhood and Christianity." GEORGIA PATRONAGE ATLANTA, Ga., May 19. By order of the Harding administration promulgation by the postoffice department, all eligibles for appointment to postmasterships in Georgia and all eligibles for appointment to rural mail carrier positions in Georgia, these constituting the bulk of the federal patronage in that and all other states of the union, will in the future be referred directly and only to Henry Lincoln Johnson, the Negro republican national committeeman from that state. While the order has not yet been issued as to gin inspectors whose appointments are made thru the department of commerce, it is understood that they will take the same course. This action settles definitely the policy of the administration as to the minor appointments in Georgia.

WASHINGTON, D. C. (By the Associated Negro Press.) "The Washington Tribune" is the name of the latest journalistic venture in the Capital City. It is published by the Murray Brothers establishment, 920 U st., and William O. Walker, formerly of the Journal and Guide, Norfolk, and the Pittsburgh Courier, the ma naging editor. It will cater to local events chiefly. T. K. Gibson of Atlanta, and B. M. Roddy of Memphis, chiefs in insurance and banking, were in Washington telling in glowing terms of the arangements being made in Atlanta to look after the visitors to the National Negro Business League in August. A National Industrial Exhibit is to be MONITOR THREE held in conjunction with the event, and it promises to be epoch-making in its extensiveness. This part of the program is under the direct management of the Local League, of which J. C. Ross is President, and is not a money-making but an inspirational and educative event. The largest auditorium in Atlanta has been engaged, and the decorating and lighting effects will surpass anything ever attempted by the race. Attorney W. C. Matthews of Boston, has been in the city several days, and is very active in the agitation in behalf of having the Federalized National Guard order changed which prevents Colored Americans from being full-fledged soldiers. Attorney Matthews had laid the matter personally before Secretary of War Weeks, who is from the state of Massachusetts, and, also Vice-President Coolidge, whom he reminded promised to take a personal interest in the adjustment under the new Administration. John W. Lewis, President of the Industrial Savings Bank, has rturned from Atlantic City, where he has closed the deal for the property for the erection of the new $25,000 Owington Hotel. The location is ideal, and will afford a magnetic center for visitors to "America's Playground." Dr. R. R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., conferred with President Harding relative to the completion of Nitrate Plant and the Government dam at Mussle Shoals. Ala. It was pointed out by Dr. Moton that this improvement will be a great asset to the development of the South, and the benefit of the government. The improvement will cost about $15,000,000.00 more. Dr. Moton was accompanied to the White House by Robert R. Church, who is also interested in the governmental improvement. "The Same Old Rot." the reply that Secretary of the Navy Denhy made to reporters concerning the complaints of the Haitian Commission that is now in Washington, has proved a storm of protests from those who are interested in the adjustment of conditions in Haiti. It is pointed out, if the Secretary is correctly quoted, that the language is inelegant, and not in keeping with the Administration policy of Service to Humanity. Bare Feet Not Injurious. Eve was reputedly barefoot and Nausicaa played ball all the better because she went unshod. Helen of Troy at the most wore sandals, and the sandal is the compromise between the sheoeless and the shod. It is easier to make sandals than to make boots. In Ireland and Scotland the children have run barefoot for many a day and the wit of one and the enterprise of the other show that there is nothing really demoralizing in going without shoes and stockings. London Chronicle. Apiary in Big City. Apartment in Big City. It seems a little odd to think of domestelling bees in a great city, yet there has been discovered in New York a man who successfully attempted this. It was this man's love for natural history and particul y for insects that led him to experiment in keeping one ap学 on the roof of his home on One Hundred and Seventeenth street. He procured a hive, stocked it and awaited results. The bees sailed forth, but not to starvation. In a short time they had combs in process of construction and were filling them with honey. Gema Affected by Light The colors of most gems are more or less fugitive. That is, under certain circumstances they are liable to fade. Take two rubles exactly similar, shut one in the dark, and leave the other exposed to full sunlight, and at the end of two years there will be a distinct difference between them. The one that has been exposed to the light will be decidedly paler than the other. Similar results may be observed with both emeralds and sapphires. Garnets also will turn lighter, while in the case of the toopaz, sunlight ends by dimming and dulling the color of this pretty stone. Metal Suits in Ye Olden Times. Armorers of ancient days often achieved fame for the quality of their metal suit, but their secrets are an open book in the light of modern metallurgical analysis and microscopy. Sections of iron cut from some 12 samples of old armor and examined by the United States bureau of standards revealed that a pure wrought iron was used, carbonized into steel by cementation, hammered into sheets and welded together. The completed suit of armor, after shaping, was then hardened by quenching.—Popular Mechanics Magazine. That Goes With Peppermint, Too.

FAMOUS WASHINGTON (By the Associated Negro Press.) WASHINGTON, D. C., May 19. The United States branch Police Court of Washington, D. C., presided over by Judge Hardison recently adjourned out of respect to the memory of Attorney John A. Moss, who died a few days ago. Attorney Moss was among the first Negro lawyers to take up practice in the District of Columbia. Following a series of eulogies by a number of Mr. Moss' associates, including Attorneys R. A. Hughes, W. M. Hewlett, H. L. Tignor, C. S. Williams, and J. M. Ricks, Judge Hardison paid tribute to the man who has been regarded as a landmark of the District Courts. "He was a man of notable events, and a man out of the ordinary," the Judge stated. "Moss was a living monument of a time that had passed away. He was a pioneer of his race. Moss was a man of unusual attainments and had a great breadth of view. I can appreciate the sentiments voiced by the preceding speakers." RUSSEL TAYLOR, A. M., Minister Our services Sunday were well attended and from all indications quite pleasing and profitable. It was our second communion service and was much enjoyed by all. We were pleased to welcome into full fellowship Mrs. Eva M. Pinkett, Mrs. Nellie Gordon and Mr. William McRae. The Sunday School is still showing progress in interest and numbers. The monthly free will offering initiated by our new superintendent was entered into with enthusiasm and netted a neat little sum for the special fund of the Sunday School. Mrs. Johnson knows how to put things over without much ostentation. The Christian Endeavor Prayer Service was able led by attorney H. J. Pinkett. His development of the topic, "How to Enjoy Your Work" was very practical and a source of inspiration to the young as well as to those of more mature years. The meeting next Sunday will be led by Mrs. James A. Clarke, topic "My Favorite Saying of Christ and Why." Sermon topics next Sunday will be as follows: 11 a. m.

One of the men among the armed force was a special county officer. The white men were arrested on a gambling charge, tried right there by the Negroes, convicted and fined.

Sherwar Standard Laundry 24th, Near Lake Street Phone Webster 189 THE MONITOR Colored Tobacco Grower Knew What Was Expected of Him, and Had Come Prepared. A colored man from Kentucky drove to a loose leaf tobacco sales warehouse in one of the Indiana cities on the Ohio with a load of tobacco. When he received his sales slip and weights he noticed the customary bank check was missing. Approaching the cashier he said: "Look here, boss, where is my money for this here tobacco?" The sales sheet was consulted. "It's like this: the expenses for weighing, unloading and commission for selling your tobacco amounted to more than the tobacco was worth. You still owe us just 50 cents," explained the cashier. "Well, that's all right, I guess, but I ain't got a cent with me." "Then next time you are coming over the river, just bring along a chicken with you and we will call the deal square." Within a week the colored man appeared in the office with two chickens, one under each arm. "Here are the chickens." "Sure—but you didn't have to bring two of them, one would have paid the bill." "Yes, boss, but Ise brought another load of tobacco."—Indianapolis News. STRUGGLES ALONG ON $80,000 University of Pennsylvania Law Student Who Receives Huge Income Lives in Modest Fashion. "Wanted, a stenographer of unimpeachable character, experienced in shorthand and taking dictation, who will be willing to devote her Sundays to indexing and preparing the cases of a struggling law student at the University of Pennsylvania." This is the model of stenographic ability required by the university's richest student, John Jeffries V of England, who is "struggling" only in so far as his law work goes, for he came to this country with the more trifle of $80,000 a year on which to live, says the Philadelphia Inquirer. Jeffries, who is a second-year student, already has one stenographer, but his earnest delving into the intricacies of Blackstone and his likl require more assistance and he is now looking for a suitable young woman to add to his staff. The young Englishman, who is the fifth direct descendant of John Temple, governor general of Ireland, and has three cousins in the house of lords, is popular among his classmates, who declare that he is quite democratic, in spite of the burden of his wealth. He lives quietly and unpretentiously, and nothing in his mode of living seems to indicate that he spends even a half of $80,000 allowed him. Japanese Remain Buddhists Japanese Remain Buddhists. That 80 per cent of the Japanese living in the sugar plantation camps of Hawaii never have been touched by Christian propaganda, and that American plantation owners, managers and others who have helped support Japanese Buddhist missions, "did a foolish thing, if ever man did," were two of the statements made by Rev. Ulysses G. Murphy, representative of the American Bible society, in a recent address at Honolulu. Rev. Mr. Murphy also said that the elder generation of Japanese living in the plantation camps, owing to their isolation, are forty years behind their native country in thought and understanding of modern conditions. Any attempt at Americanization of the Japanese in Hawaii which leaves untouched their home life and fails to recognize that the key to the problem is the Japanese language schools is foredoomed to failure, Rev. Mr. Murphy declared. Almost Had It. One of the Terre Hute ward schools was having a contest in seeing which children could learn the airs of a number of standard songs so they could tell their names when they heard a few bars of the melody played. After "Home, Sweet Home" and "Old Black Joe" had been played several times the teacher put on the record "Believe Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms." It was played a few minutes and she began to look expectantly at the children. Then a fair little youngster looked triumphantly up from the list of songs he had in his hand. "Oh, it's that believe me in tears all about your charms," he hazarded.—Indianapolis News. Would You Believe It? The game of croquet does not develop experts and enthusiasts to the extent that golf and tennis do; but more people play it and more wood is consumed in providing the balls, mallets and stakes than in the production of golf clubs and tennis rackets combined, says the American Forestry Magazine of Washington. The entire playing outfit of croquet is made of wood except the arches, and sometimes these are of bent wood.

The six and three-quarter pound emerald was among the crown jewels of Russia, and its location now is unknown.
