BULLY BEATS BROOKLYN BISHOP White Staff of Doctors and Colored Nurses Open Hospital for Negro Veterans ARKANSAS MOB THREATENS I BULL White Staff UNITED STATES HOSPITAL OPENS WITH WHITE STAFF Colonel R. H. Stanley, Army Physician of Alabama, Placed in Charge With White Doctors and Colored Nurses SOUTH IS STILL IN SADDLE President Harding Publicly Stated That Entire Personnel of The Hospital Would Be Colored Tuskegee, Ala., June 8.—Despite the widely published statement alleged to have been authorized by President Harding that the United States hospital erected here for the exclusive treatment of Negro world war veterans would be officered throughout with a colored personnel, the hospital opened May 20th, with Col. R. M. Stanley, a white army physician of Greenville, Alabama, in charge. He has a staff of white physicians and forty colored nurses have been certified, but no colored physicians. It is reported that later some colored physicians will be given minor places. Dr. Stanley's position pays $10,000 a year, and he will supervise the expenditure of $1,250,000, which it is estimated will be the amount of the annual budget. Strong opposition to placing colored men in charge of the hospital has come from the South which in this case as in so many other matters affecting government affairs, seems generally to have its own way. Information generally circulated is to the effect that the influence in the Veterans' Bureau who have staged the entire official opposition, and who had control before the present director, General Hines, assumed charge, have set forth the claim that the position open in the Tuskegee Hospital, said to be the finest the government has yet built, called for doctors especially qualified in certain technical practice which few colored physicians have had any reason to qualify themselves for. Medical men of national reputation have been conservative in discussing the situation. One of the best known physicians in the country who practices in Chicago said here recently: "I have not heard of Dr. George E. Cannon or Dr. J. E. Perry of the National Negro Medical Association being asked to confer on this matter. They would know better how to put their hands on the right men than anyone else in America." Dr. ePryr, of Knsas City, Mo., is president, and Dr. Cannon of Jersey City, is chairman of the executive association. In the meantime Dr. Moton, who extended the government the invitation to come to Tuskegee, and whose friends assert he was genuinely interested in having the hospital manned by Negroes, has been subjected to attack because the white people of Alabama demanded the plum, and it is claimed compromised him into seeing their view. Dr. Moton's friends deny these charges as absurd and say that he practically broke with the white people of the town and Montgomery on the subject. WOULD NOT BE SEGREGATED St. Louis, Mo., June 8.—The patriotic spirit of the colored boys of the local American Legion was somewhat marred Decoration Day by an attempt to segregate them on the boat which was to carry all ex-service men to Jefferson Barracks. According to a statement from McRae Joneh, Adjutant, Calvin Hyde Post American Legion, the men of his Post bought tickets and had embarked ready for sailing when members of the boat crew attempted to stretch ropes segregating the colored soldiers from the whites. Seeing this spirit the colored boys withdrew from the boat and demanded their money back. They returned to town somewhat disappointed but singing "Before I'll be a Slave, I'll be Buried in My Grave." It is understood that the segregation plan was done with the knowledge and consent of white legionnaires who, it is said, are quite hostile toward the black soldiers who went over seas—and for what? THE MONITOR RECEPTION FOR ACTING PASTOR The members and friends of the Grove M. E. church gave a reception in honor of Rev. C. Simms and his good wife who has so ernestly and prayerfully taken care of their church till the Rev. E. C. W. Cox, their pastor, arrived from Manhattan, Kansas. Mrs. R. M. Hardidon who has just returned from Clark university where she attended school last term was also a guest. Mr. Y. W. Logan was master of ceremonies. Mrs. Bostic led on the program by singing "A Perfect Day". Beatrice and Catherine Brown played a duet on violin and piano. Mrs. Iola Allen gave a reading from Dunbar, Mrs. Maya sang a solo, and Mrs. Wilks and Allen a duet. Each member on the program reflected credit on herself and sang to the delight of the hearers. Rev. and Mrs. Simms made many friends while here and will be missed for the good they did while here. K. K. K.

STEADY STREAM OF BLACK LABORERS MOVING NORTH STEADY STREAM OF BLACK LABORERS MOVING NORTH National Industrial Conference Bureau Issues Suggestive Statement Relating to Exodus PITTSBURG WANTS WORKMEN Large Northern Firm Praises The Dependability and Skill of Colored Labor in its Employ New York City, June 8.—From all sections of the South a steady stream of black men is moving northward. This is the statement issued by the National Industrial Conference Board, 10 E. 39th Street, which estimates that Negroes are leaving the South at the rate of 17,000 per month. "Negroes from Georgia and the Carolinas are coming to the Atlantic Seaboard states and New England. Negroes of Alabama, Mississippi and Tennessee to the middle western states, and Negroes from Arkansas and Louisiana are moving into the states further west." Whites Praise Negro Labor One large Northern firm says of its colored labor: "We have employed Negroes in our shops for a great many years. In looking back over their service record we find continuous service records of five years, ten years, fifteen years, twenty years and even twenty-five and thirty years. These Negroes have faithfully, loyally and honestly performed the service that was required of them. I have found that with proper supervision the colored man could not only do skilled work, but would also maintain a standard of quality and production as established in the shop." Pittsburg Needs 8,000 The labor shortage in Pittsburg is reported as so acute that it is estimated that 8,000 laborers and several hundred semi-skilled workers are needed at once. In New Jersey one construction company, unable to get colored workers, is hiring fifty-five Chinese. Colored ministers in Mississippi, in a lengthy statement declared that Negroes are leaving the State because for every dollar spent on Negro children for education, twenty dollars is spent on the white child. High schools, reformatories, hospitals, colleges, blind asylums and smooth streets are built out of state funds, ministers say, for whites only altho Negroes are also taxed. Inability to vote and injustice in the courts were also cited. INDEPENDENT VOTERS' LEAGUE A NATIONAL WEEKLY NEWSPAPER DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF COLORED AMERICANS THE REV.

I hope not, because I enjoy it so much,” said an interested reader. “No,” I replied, “I haven’t even got to Hot Springs, yet, of which there is much to tell, and then there is Pine Bluff, where I spent a busy but happy week, met many delightful people and learned much of interest. So you see I have a great deal yet to tell. I may, however, now and then skip a week or two, but I shall continue the series until it is completed. In my last article which was captioned, “Off for Hot Springs”, I told you of the to me somewhat puzzling way of trying to board “the special coach” reserved for “The Children of the Sun”, as George Wells Parker has most happily named our people, because of the varying custom of sometime entering at one end of the coach and at another time another end and sometimes at either end. I can see how very easy it would be for trouble to arise over misunderstanding, on the part of even an intelligent member of our race and an insolent and bulldoizing railroad employee, feeling his "superiority", because of his whiter cuticle, over this dual system on the part of a stranger from the North. For example, suppose while I was standing there awaiting my turn to board the train, thinking, as I did, that entrance was made by the same door as is the custom on the street cars, the brakeman who was "loading the passengers", noticing me, had said roughly or graffly, "Here, nigger", you go to the other end." I admit, that priest as I am and having schooled myself to control my temper—and I have plenty of it—I MIGHT NOT have done so. It is highly probable that I would have resented it and that would have meant trouble for it is an unpardonable sin for a colored man to "talk back" to a white man in the South. I can see how easy it is for a stranger to get into trouble in the South. Fortunately, nothing of this kind happened in my case. I was spared embarrassment by the cheery call of one of my fellow traveiers, "Come this way, reverend." I followed him and entered our private car. This private car "For Colored" consisted of one half of a regular coach. I think it was the "smoker". This forward half was subdivided into two sections, one section being used as a smoker for the colored passengers and the other section for women and men who did not care to ride in the smoking compartment. There was a toilet for men in the smoking compartment and one for women in NOTED SURGEONS OF PHILADELPHIA MAKE NEW HISTORY First of Their Race to Conduct Clinic In Great Medical Hospital at The Pennsylvania Capitol ATTEND STATE CONVENTION Newspapers Speak in Laudatory Terms of "The Amazing Skill of Colored Physicians And Specialists" Harrisburg, June 8.—The proceedings of the State Convention of Colored Physicians, which closed its final session here last Saturday, will become a part of the extraordinary history of the colored people of the state as well as becoming an interesting page in the general medical history of Pennsylvania. While the proceedings of the convention were of great concern to the medical world because of the technical matters discussed, and the plans adopted for the advancement of medical science, the most important of all things accomplished, however, by the colored physicians during their stay here were the operations performed at a clinic held by eminent colored physicians at the Harrisburg hospital. The clinic, which was held Friday morning from 8:30 to 12:00 noon. the other section. This is the rule on the main lines of these roads, but on the branch lines, there is violation of this rule for modesty and decency by having a common toilet for both sexes. I noticed this on two branch lines from Hot Springs to Benton and from Benton to Pine Bluff. There were ten of us passengers, all told, on "our private car", two women and eight men. The colored brakeman—not PORTER—but brakeman, the Rock Island has several colored brakemen on passenger trains on this line—rode in this car, and I found him an intelligent and well-informed man and also a manly fellow. He gave me a good deal of valuable information. This man's name is Henry Hite. His standing in seniority was number 23 on the Old Arkansas Division of the Rock Island. I learned from him that the rule of seniority obtains on this road and that on the Arkansas-Louisiana Division among the large number of brakemen employed, several of them—I have forgotten the number—are colored men, two of whom rank first and second in seniority and two others are well up on the list. The men standing first and second are A. O. Alexander who entered the service in 1900; and Richard Williams, 1903. The other two are Herman Cato, 1911, and Henry Hite, 1912. The wages and hours of black and white are equal. All are standardized. One of my fellow passengers, whose name I recall, was Lemuel Simpson. He is a mechanic and was returning to spend the week end with his family. He was engaged on a building contract in some town north of Little Rock. I have forgotten the name. I found him a fine upstanding man of about thirty-five years of age, a member of a labor union. He told me that unionism in the South had learned the necessity and wisdom of recognizing the brother in black. His own experience was that the labor unions were disposed to be fair and he believed that it was to the advantage of the colored American to belong. The principles are right even though their application may not always be wise. Two or three of the men were going to Hot Springs for the baths; another for a brief visit. They were all intelligent and well-behaved men. The two rough-looking fellows who put me on the right track seemed to be the least intelligent of the number; but they were not fools, by any manner of means, although their language was ungrammatical and their manners somewhat uncoath. One of them seemed to be considerably concerned about the Kluxes. Some remark of mine elicited from him the troubled statement: "Look marks an epoch in the medical circles of Harrisburg. The entire surgical staff (all white) of the Harrisburg hospital and many other distinguished white physicians were present. The white nurses were particularly courteous in rendering service. The local newspapers gave much space to what they chose to term "the amazing skill of colored physicians." The Harrisburg Telegraph said: "Seven noted colored specialists from Philadelphia, who are attending the convention of Negro physicians in this city, conducted a clinic today at the Harrisburg hospital. "The most interesting of the operations performed this morning was the introduction of the new LaForce method of removing tonsils. Dr. J. E. T. Oxley, noted colored physician of Harrisburg, supervisor of the clinic, stated that this new method is a marvelous step forward in medical science. The operation is made extremely simple. Little or no pain is experienced by the patient and dangerous after effects are practically eliminated. The operation can also be made in much shorter time. "The Philadelphia physicians who operated this morning are: Dr. W. H. Barnes and Dr. G. G. Strickland, who performed four nose and throat operations together; Dr. G. E. Robinson and Dr. J. P. Turner, who made two successful general surgical operations, and Dr. C. F. Anderson, assisted by Dr. M. N. Pannell and Dr. DeHaven Hinkson, who performed a major abdominal operation." out, reverend, what you says 'bout the Klu-Klux. They's a heap of 'em 'round these parts and they is mighty mean. You nevah knows when they're 'roun' and who they is, an' the's always tryin' to git somethin' on our folks. Be careful, what you says and where you say it. You ain't up in Nebraska." "We have them up there, too, my friend, but nobody's afraid of them," I replied. "Well, they're mighty down here, an' I wants to give 'em plenty room so they won't tech me, I'm tellin' it." This was said by an unlettered man, representing a type of our people of which type there is a large number. I wondered how general was the concern about the Kluxies expressed by this man. I learned subsequently that among the intelligent class of our people they have as little fear of the Kluxies and as much contempt for their cowardly principles as our people have up here. The train was bearing us through a beautiful country becoming more heavily wooded with graceful pines ermine-robed as we ascended towards Hot Springs. I had learned much of interest from my fellow-passengers representing different types of our people both by conversation and observation. The total sum gives a good balance on the credit side. This is clear from some things I learned from my fellow-passengers on my way from Little Rock to Hot Springs. (Next article: Hot Springs.)

ALLEGED KLANSMEN MALTREAT BELL BOY ACTING NIGHT CLERN Indiana Youth Showing Ability Had Been Employed to do Night Clerical Work in Hotel in Georgia IS KIDNAPPED AND BEATEN Cowardly Captors Threaten to Burn Him And Warn Him Never to Take Another White Man's Waycross, Georgia, June 8.—John Carter, 22, a bellman, was taken from his home by three men who claimed they were members of the Kuklux Klan and they beat him almost into insensibility. Because they claimed he was serving in the capacity of a clerk at the Phoenix Hotel, Waycross, Ga., Carter, who is from Fort Wayne, Ind., and a very intelligent young man, had been working at the hotel for about five months as bellman. The hotel management, observing his unusual intelligence in matters pertaining to office work, allowed Carter to serve both as bellman and clerk after the white clerk left every night. This, apparently, was displeasing to some of the patrons of the hotel and they decided to get rid of Carter and he was thus abducted by the three white-robed men. Before the party reached the scene on the road where they were to show Carter how 'white men treat a Negro who served in the capacity of a white man.' they beat him with their fists and blackjacks. Upon arriving at the fifteen mile post, they took the young man out of the car, beat him, tied his hands and feet together and then gathered some branches and prepared to make a fire in which they threatened to burn him. He begged not to be burned and upon his promise to leave Waycross they decided not to apply the match to him but warned him never again to take a "white man's job." They jumped into their machines and left the young man in the woods. He managed to get back to Waycross and left on the first train. His head bears several scars from the black-jacks which the three men used on him and his body covered with welts from the sticks. Another indisputable reason why so many Negroes are leaving the South. COLORED BOY CHOSEN TO READ DECLARATION On July 4, in Balcony of Old State House at Boston; First Time Race Thus Honored.

VIII—No. 48 SHOP ARKANSAS MOB THREATENS LIFE OF NEGRO BISHOP Prelate of African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church Subjected To Indignities And Assault LOCKED IN MAYOR'S OFFICE The Bishop Who Was Visiting South To Preach Baccalaurate Sermon "Insults" White Boy Station Porter at Warren, Ark. Warren, Ark., June 8. (K. C. Call News Service)—Is it possible for a venerable bishop to "sass" a 20-year old youth? This was the claim of a white mob which took Bishop P. A. Wallace from his stopping place, locked him up in the office of the Mayor, threatened him with gun and rope and struck him with a chair until town officials rescued him. Bishop Wallace, whose home is in Brooklyn, New York, was on his way to Walters University here to deliver the baccalaurate sermon. Arriving in the station during the rain he took shelter inside awaiting the auto to take him to the school grounds. At this point the 20-year old white station porter announced that it was time to close the station and "you dam niggers better take you baggage and get out." Bishop Wallace remonstrated with the youth and in reply received two blows from a stove poker and threats to "get you tonight." Later in the evening the bishop was called from the house by an auto load of men looking for the "nigger who had an argument with a white man at the station." Bishop Wallace was locked up in the Mayor's office, and a man armed with a revolver was placed over him. Abused, threatened cursed and hit by a chair in the hands of this guard, the prelate was finally rescued by school authorities who had gotten the mayor out of bed. Authorities refused to prosecute the porter or the members of the mob, on the ground that no Arkansas jury would believe the word of a black man against a white and if Bishop Wallace came to court with any charges he would probably be lynched. STAY IN VIRGINIA SAYS ITS GOVERNOR Lawrenceville, Va., June 8.—"It almost breaks my heart when I read in the papers how labor agents are inducing you to go North," declared Governor E. Lee Trinkle before an audience of 2,000 at the thirty-fifth annual closing exercises of St. Paul N. and I. Institute. There were forty-six graduates. Governor Trinkle added: "Here is the place for you. I want to see you all happy and I want to see to it that the white people of Virginia give you a square deal and an opportunity, every man and woman of you. I hope I am a governor of all the people." DAIL TELLS SOUTH TO BUILD ITS OWN UNIVERSITIES Birmingham, Ala., June 8—Because Yale and Harvard recognize the "nigger" student the News, the big daily of this city is advocating that the South build its own Yale and Harvard."

GIVE THEM WELCOME A VERITABLE flood of emigration of our brethren from the South is under way. They are leaving that section by thousands. It is the too-long delayed economic strike which we trust will eventually bring that fair section of our country to its senses. Leading white newspapers of the South are frankly confessing that the South itself is to blame for the exodus. They are calling upon the thoughtful, broad-minded people of that section to treat the Negro with such justice and fairness that he will remain where his affections are so strongly centered. If this appeal be heeded the exodus will eventually be checked but now it is under way. Thousands are coming north. This lays a weighty responsibility upon our race in these northern regions. It is not only a responsibility but an opportunity for rendering a great service not only to our kinsmen in the flesh, for they verily are our brethren; but also to so warrant it that whatever affects one portion of humanity, for weal or woe, affects all. Emphasis of this truth and a full realization of its full import would make all men more considerate of the rights of others. Whether we realize it or not, and not of us do it, is a fact nevertheless. Conditions being as they are, we hope that our people will realize the duty they owe our brethren who are coming into this and every other community to give them cordial welcome and help them to adjust themselves to new conditions that they may add strength to our citizenship and prove themselves a credit to our community. This calls for neighborliness. Get acquainted with these newcomers and show yourself friendly. If they move into your neighborhood, don't hold yourself aloof, but get acquainted. This is an individual duty. The churches and other organizations should at once get in touch with them and give them welcome. Let us show that we are interested in the well being of our people, willing to do our utmost to help them in any way we can. In do Nebras Chapter Thirteen Enacted in 1893.

UNITY IMPERATIVE THE movement towards federation of our racial forces which was made at the mass meeting called for another purpose at Zion Baptist Church last Thursday night is a move in the right direction and should have the hearty support of all our people. What we as a people need, more than anything else, is ORGANIZATION and UNITED ACTION. This is true nationally and locally. National organization is well under way and we are beginning to learn how vitally important it is. There is no community in the land of the same population where the ability, character, intelligence and resources average higher than in Omaha. We have a fine class of citizens, industrious, self-respecting and progressive, the great majority of whom are sincerely anxious to function, sanely and effectively, for the best interests of all concerned. Many of our number are persons of ability and influence, but individual effort can never get the same results as united action. We lack team work. Grand stand plays may tickle the pride and vanity of the individual player but they do not win the pennant. The Monitor is confident that if we are all in earnest and will not be too impatient a pla nf federation of all our racial forces in this community can be worked out that will be of inestimable benefit. Despite failures to get together in the past, let us continue our efforts along this line until we succeed. "All our weakness lies in discord; all our strength is in union." TRUTH FRACTURED IT appears to us that some person or persons in high authority have badly fractured the truth. Not long ago President Harding gave out the statement that the United States Hospital for Negro veterans at Tuskegee would be completely manned by a colored staff of physicians and surgeons, nurses and other skilled em- ka Civil Rig of the Revised Statutes of Neb ployees. This information was elicited from President Harding after widely-circulated rumors to the effect that the chief positions were to be given to white people and subor to nurse colored men, were to be employees. White nurses, whom it is said the Alabama law will not allow to nurse cooled men, were to be employed, and given "colored maids," presumably trained colored nurses, who would do the work of "nursing Negro veterans" while the white nurses of course would receive the larger emoluments. Such were the statements made. They were considered sufficiently well-grounded to raise a storm of protest from members of our race, who rightly maintained that if the United States government insisted upon a segregated hospital, then competent colored physicians and nurses should be given employment therein. The white people of Alabama insisted that whites should be in charge of this "exclusively Negro hospital." Notice this strange inconsistency. But the administration was placed between two fires. The outcome of it was that the President declared that "THE ENTIRE PERSONNEL OF THE HOSPITAL WILL BE COLORED." This official release was given to the press. Now comes the information that the hospital was opened May 20th with Col. R. H. Stanley, a white army physician of Greenville, Ala., a white staff and colored nurses in charge. Wouldn't this seem to indicate that somebody has badly fractured the truth? WHAT OTHER EDITORS SAY The Garvey Bubble Bursts The Garvey Bubble Bursts "The death struggle of the Garvey movement," is what some people will discern in the pending court trial that "His Majesty, the Provisional President of Africa," is facing in New York. There is something tragic about the whole affair. Opinion will no doubt divide on the actual guilt of Garvey as to intent to defraud. Evidence already shows, however, that more than a million dollars was thrown to the winds in first one high sounding scheme after another, and that many a dollar was carelessly if not fraudulently used. The one outstanding fact in the whole debacle, however, is that it was possible to organize such a colossal movement. Never in the history of the world has a Negro arisen with the ambitions of Garvey. Toussaint L'Overture sought to free a group of his countrymen. Denmark Vessey struck for the freedom of American slaves; but Garvey's ambition embraced the Negro world. Garvey failed because he lacked business experience. But the fact that so many colored people could be interested in such a movement is significant. Some day some leader will arise who has both organizing and business ability and then what things may happen GOD ONLY KNOWS.—The Baltimore Afro-American. MT. MORIAH BAPTIST CHURCH Rev. E. H.

THE MONITOR Warfare Warfare of Land and Sea Light Station, Heron Neck, Maine. By JOHN OLIVER LA GORCE, Vice President National Geographic Society. Realization of the great age of the earth and the long periods involved in the birth of mountain ranges and the disappearance of continents often obscures the fact that changes are taking place rapidly enough actually to be watched and measured. In places the clock of geologic time runs so fast, in fact, that we may, as it were, see the minute hand moving upon the dial. Ninety years later we were taken, and we was found to be once again tellin warring. Retreat of On the shore Chatham, the land rate of a foot on southern shore o it is giving up th at the rate of the months, while on One of the most conspicuous places by which to illustrate this remarkable condition is the coast-line of the southeastern United States from the Virginia capes to the Rio Grande. Here, as along other coast-line on the face of the earth there is perpetual warfare between the land and the sea, with the wind as a shifting ally, now throwing its weight into the balance on the one side and now on the other. Here the land is taking the offensive, driving the sea back foot by foot, always with the aid of the wind; there the sea assumes the offensive and eats its way landward slowly and laboriously, but none the less successfully. The varying fortunes of this relentless and age-long war, neither truce nor treaty will ever bring to an end, can be read in the shifting sands of the seashore. At many points along the coast of the northeastern states are found bold cliffs, and the charging sea attacks them with the shot and shell of loose shingle. Some of them, however, are adamant and impregnable in their frontal fortifications and hold out against the sorest siege, but between them have occurred stretches of softer rock which have been literally pounded to dust by the ocean's heavy artillery, thus permitting flank attacks on the hitherto unconquered defenses. Along the southeastern coast, however, the rock-bound cliff is the exception and the long stretches of glittering sand the rule. Here the sandy beach reaches out farther and farther into the sea, and the water is thus enabled to penetrate farther and farther into the land, because the attack of the sea is usually a frontal movement and that of the land frequently a wedge attack; thus we can account for the long, straight shore on the one hand and the spit on the other. Cape Henry's Sand Dune. Cape Henry, Virginia, where the great Chesapeake bay empties into the Atlantic, is one of the most interesting points along the South Atlantic coast. It affords an excellent opportunity to study the battle royal between the sea, the winds and the sands, and it is remarkable also for the weirdness of its storm-buffeted beach, extending in broken masses of sand as far as the eye can reach, picked out here and along the land edge by gnarled and stunted trees, beach grass and hardy shrubs, which make a brave fight against the ever-encouraging enemy. At Cape Henry in 1791 was erected the first lighthouse built by the young United States government. After many years of faithful service the ancient beacon gave way to a more pretentious structure, which was erected in 1881, but the old lighthouse still stands on its great hill of sand and rock like a sentinel of a forgotten army ready to spring to arms when called. Stretching inland behind the original lighthouse is a great dune, or rather a mountain of sand, which has been the savings bank of the winds for untold centuries. The dune is more than 100 feet high in many places, and the great plateau on its crest, stretching back into the country for several miles, covers an area of many acres. Slowly but surely the great mass of sand crystals is making its way toward the interior, being pushed back inch by inch by the restless wind, and it is merclessly engulfing a great pine forest. It is even rapidly filling up the Lynnhaven river, a small fresh-water stream famous for its oysters. Rockaway Beach, Long Island, grows westward at the rate of nearly a mile every twenty years. At Nag Head, North Carolina, the land has extended into the sea at the rate of 35 feet a year. In 1804 Dr. Nathaniel Bowditch prepared a book of Salem and Marblehead harbors, giving the soundings over various ledges of rock.

FOR RENT—Three nicely furnished rooms for man and wife, or men—Webster 4482. Ninety years later similar soundings were taken, and in all cases the water was found to be considerably deeper, once again telling the tale of endless warring. Retreat of the Shore Line. On the shore of Cape Cod, near Chatham, the land is retreating at the rate of a foot a year, and on the southern shore of Martha's Vineyard it is giving up the fight to the enemy at the rate of three feet every twelve months, while on the southern face of Nantucket the retreat has been as much as six feet a year, the records tell us. From Portland, Me., to Cape Florida there is a fairly well-connected barrier of sand-reefs, all of them built up by the sea and its allay, the wind, from the material pounded from the shoreline by the waves. From Chessapeake bay to Biscayne bay, Florida, a distance of 700 miles, there is a natural rampart of sand so continuous, fencing such an unbroken series of lagoons in from the sea, that it is possible to make the entire journey through inland waters without exposure to the open sea. In its incessant warfare against the land, the sea literally takes its captured hosts and makes them do battle under its command. The boulders that are shattered from the face of a cliff are dashed up against it again and again, hammering others loose, the while being worn round and smooth as the projectiles of big guns must be. As the process goes on, these huge shells are worn down and crumbled until there remains nothing to tell the story of forced fighting against their own stronghold save grains of sand on some distant beach or the soft carpet spread upon the floor of the sea many fathoms deep. The waves always find a most valuable ally in the wind while their work of coastline transformation goes on. The possibilities of the wind as a worker in conjunction with the waves are revealed when we consider that during a violent storm the air may hold in suspension as much as 126,000 tons of sand to the cubic mile. This sand, driven bither and thither, finds a resting place somewhere, and that resting place is usually a dune along the shore. How Sand Dunes Are Made. How Sand Dunes Are Made. A sand dune always has a humble beginning. A piece of wreckage cast up by the waves may start it, or any sort of obstacle lying upon the shore may cause it to come into being. Once started, the dune becomes a trap to catch sand in. It takes its toll of every passing gust of wind, and thus continues to grow and grow. Often they keep advancing until they bury orchards, forests, and even buildings, like great drifts of snow. Along the coast of New Jersey one may see orchards which have been covered by wind-blown sand within the memory of man so that only the tops of the trees now protrude above the surface. It is not exceptional to see a forest invaded and sometimes even completely buried. To watch the struggles of the trees against their encoaching enemy is one of the most remarkable sights of nature. As the sand rises around their trunks new roots are put out near the surface, and they continue to fight their battle month in and month out, but generally they are finally completely engulfed. The alternating burial and resurrection of forests is due mainly to the tendency of sand dunes to migrate. On Hatteras island, North Carolina, the migration of a dune literally robbed a cemetery of its dead, dashing down the gravestones and exposing the bones of the bodies buried there, says Professor Cobb, an authority on the subject of beach formations. On the northern end of Hatteras island a fishing village has been completely buried, while the sand has entirely crossed the island at several places north of Cape Hatteras. This movement of sand was started just after the Civil war by the cutting of trees for ship timbers, and, although the section is known today as the Great Woods, there is not a stick of timber to be seen. It may be true that a man with a pull gets the easiest jobs. But the man who has the push gets one that pays more money.—New Orleans States.

Church is undergoing a vast improvement and enlargement. A vestibule is being constructed with entrance fronting Sixteenth street instead of on Avenue A as formerly. The main floor of the Auditorium will remain the same width but will be twelve feet longer, affording ample space for 100 more seats. On the right of the rostrum will be the pastor's study and on the left the Choir room. Cathedral windows are to replace the obsolete frosted glass windows and will add greatly to the appearance of the structure. These windows are being donated by the citizens and members of the church and the window will bear the name of the person who donates it. Every effort is being made to make the church as beautiful as possible. Rev. J. P. Jackson is keeping the beautiful church which he erected in excellent condition. The church is shining with a new coat of paint and bespoke of the welcoming extended to everyone by the cheerful little pastor who is always full of pep and willing to lend a helping hand. New drop lights have been installed which add to the beauty of the interior. Each fixture has one main bowl with three ornamental chandeleirets attached to the rim of the bowl. These are the prettiest and most attractive fixtures in any of the colored churches of the city. Both this church and the Bethel A. M. E. bespeak of a prosperous and progressive community.

New York.—The new republic of Poland, now in its fifth year, has a population of 27,160,163, and is the sixth nation in Europe, according to official information compiled by the Polish bureau of information. "Its population is exceeded only by Russia, Germany, Great Britain, France and Italy," the statement says. "Poland has a population as large as Denmark, Holland, Belgium, Sweden, Norway and Switzerland combined." Warsaw Has 941,000. Warsaw's population is given as 941,001; Lodz, 451,444; Lemberg, 219,000; Cracow, 181,000; Posen, 169,000; Vilna (estimated), 146,000. The republic has now been divided into 16 states or administrative units, called voyvodships. The city of Warsaw, however, as capital of the republic, is distinct from any voyvodship. After struggling with various boundary disputes on all sides, and emerging victorious from a war with Russia, Poland established her frontiers and then turned her attention to internal affairs. The first regular Polish parliament came into being November 27, 1922, succeeding the constituent assembly that had been organized as an emergency governing body early in 1919. During its life, the assembly enacted more than five hundred laws, including a constitution providing for a house of representatives elected by universal suffrage, and a senate elected in the same manner. Economy was another far-reaching measure instituted by the new republic. During 1922, a reduction of 25,000 civilian employees was made in the various departments. Military affairs also were subjected to sweeping changes. A standing army of 25,000 was recommended, with compulsory military service of two years for all males reaching the age of twenty-one. Demonstrates Its Stability. The republic demonstrated its stability in December, 1922, following the assassination of President Nurutowicz, the first chief executive, after he had been in office but two days. In the absence of precedent, the leaders turned to the constitution for guidance. Four days after the assassination, an election was held and a new president took office in accordance with the expressed will of the people. Chimneys an Old Institution. It is said chimneys were first introduced into Great Britain in 1200, their use being confined to the kitchen and large hall. They were in general use in domestic architecture in 1310. How far the Greeks and Romans were acquainted with chimneys as we now know them is a matter of dispute. An ancient mosaic found in Algeria, representing a Roman country house, shows chimney stacks projecting above the roof.
