Having seen the need of organized effort on the part of the Colored women of Arizona to improve the moral, intellectual and spiritual life of our people, and to furnish evidence of the material, mental and moral progress made by our people in the past, the Arizona Federation of Colored Women was incorporated. Articles of incorporation were filed at the State Capital August 11, A. D. 1915, at 12 m., and signed by the secretary and chairman of the corporation commission. August 18, 1915.
Clubs
Goldino Club, organized in May, 1915, by Mrs. Ella S. White, also its first president, whose purpose was to organized clubs throughout Arizona and to act as the ex-board of the Arizona Federation until the first annual meeting in May, 1916.
This club had the responsibility of financing the infant Federation and sharing all the hardships and knocks of the first incorporated body of Colored women in Arizona, but through the uniting zeal of this noble band of women, and led by its heroic officers, it launched successfully the Arizona Federation of Colored Women's Clubs.
---
This club has had three presidents since it was organized: Mrs. Ella S. White, first president; Mrs. G. A. Owens, the second, who by her untiring energy brought the membership up to 50 members; the present president is Mrs. Ada Jones, who is a staunch member and a wonderful little leader. Present number of members, 60. Art, literature and home economics are studied. The club's motto is, "Rowing, Not Drifting."
Officers: Ada Jones, president; Miss Cunningham, secretary; Mrs. Lella Rosser, treasurer.
Charity Club
This wonderful little club was organized over eight years ago and has had its hardships and trials, but has held together longer than any Colored woman's club in Arizona. The object of this club is to help the needy, and especially those that are sick and are in need of financial assistance. It cares for all races and creeds. It knows no color line, but most of its work has been with the T. B. patients that have come to Phoenix without the proper means of caring for themselves. This club has helped to bury the dead and kept worthy people from being buried in
GEORGE W. CALDWELL HIGHLY HONORED BY LOCAL MASONS
The last regular communication of Maricopa Lodge No. 1, F. & A. M., of the Most Sovereign Grand Lodge of Arizona and Jurisdiction, of which Lewis Brady is Worshipful Master and Stell Jordan is secretary, was one of the most interesting and instructive sessions of that lodge for some time. Besides attending to several matters of a charitable nature that came up, and listening to a lecture by the Master, they witnessed the presentation of a token of recognition to one of the Past Masters that, it is hoped, will set a happy precedent.
Upon the initiative of Past Master Joe Ready, the following Past Masters of Maricopa Lodge joined him in securing for Past Master George W. 'Caldwell a silver mounted and engraved traveling watch charm card case: Past Masters Aubrey Carter, Wm. P. Crump, Allen Smith, Frank Shirley, Lewis Brady, Perry Payne and Bill Hayes.
The speech of presentation was made by Past Master Crump. In his felicitous remarks he intimated that they had not singled out Past Master Caldwell for this distinction because of his good looks, for patently he was not the best looking one among them; nor because of his youth, for, judging frm his silvery locks, he was apparently the oldest one among them; but because, after having had the highest honors of the lodge conferred upon him, he patiently, conscientiously and uncomplainingly filled the office of secretary for more than three years.
the Potter's field. The churches have helped this club when the financial strain has been too great. This club gives small entertainments to help finance it, but the greatest donations come from the members. This club was the first club to rally with the Goldino to form the A. F. C. W. C. It is now associated with the Welfare League of Maricopa County, and its members are now helping with the great charity drive ably assisted by some of the leading men of Phoenix. This club was able to help in the Liberty Loan drive by buying a $50 Liberty bond, which was paid for by its members by weekly donations. The president of this club is Mrs. L. Ada Walker, a young woman of sterling qualities, who is always willing to go to the aid of any one in distress and offer her services, for she knows she is backed by one of the greatest clubs in Arizona. This bond was given to the Phoenix Federation of Colored Women's Clubs on their building fund. This club has honorary men members, who contribute to their charity fund. We will mention one in particular, Mr. Fred Gardiner, who has never failed to give his financial support to this club. This club was organized by Mrs. Marion Noble, Mrs. Ben Peterson, Mrs. Phoebe Gardiner and Mrs. Ella S. White.
The present officers are: Mrs. L. A. Walker, president; Mrs. Ruby Jones, secretary; Mrs. Stewart, treasurer.
Sunshine Club
Sunshine Club is composed of young ladies of the high school and is headed by Miss Jones. This club was organized in 1916. These young ladies take a keen interest in club work. Mrs. G. A. Owens in the chaperon.
Mary B. Talbert Club is composed of the younger set of girls. It was organized by Mrs. G. A. Owens.
The State Federation is headed by Mrs. Lynn Ross Carter, who is doing all in her power to create an interest among the Colored women of Arizona in club work. These clubs are affiliated with the State, Tucson, Douglas, Prescott, Nogales, Flagstaff clubs.
The Northwestern Federation of Colored Women's Clubs is composed of 19 states. This organization is headed by Mrs. Joana Snowden Porter of Chicago, Ill. This brilliant woman has the interest of the West at heart. She was one of the Colored women chosen for the Repub

CITY FEDERATION OF COLORED WOMEN DOING GREAT WORK
That a campaign will be launched shortly for a club house which not only will provide a home for the colored women's clubs of the city, but which will serve as a Y. M. C. A. for the boys and a Y. W. C. A. for the girls, was the announcement made yesterday by Lynn Ross Carter, the official head of the colored women's clubs of the state.
Mrs. Carter said that the need for such a building had made itself felt and that while the colored people for years had "carried on" without outside assistance they now felt that they must direct their efforts in a drive if they hoped to carry out their program for advancement. At the present time the club's treasury has the nucleus for the building in $500 in cash and $150 in Liberty bonds.
In addition to the club's rooms, Mrs. Carter said the building would provide rooms for girls who were without homes in the city. A swimming pool, gymnasium, tennis courts and other attractions are contemplated in the plans that will be more definitely outlined as the drive progresses.
licans' speaking bureau. This Federation has the unique honor of having two women attorneys, Mrs. Joana Snowden Porter and the vice president, Mrs. Gertrude Rush, of Des Moines, Iowa. Phoenix will have the honor of entertaining the most brilliant Colored women in its history. Slogan: "On to Phoenix in July."
Progressive Club
This club was organized by Mrs. O. G. Howard in 1915, then state organizer for Arizona. This club has had a very successful career. It is noted for its successful entertainments, also its charity work. This club has had three presidents—Mrs. O. G. Howard, the first; Mrs. Lillie Wiggins, second, and Mrs. Nola E. Hamilton, the present one. The officers are: Mrs. Hamilton, president; Mrs. Jennie Lucas, secretary; Mrs. J. J. Brown, treasurer.
Dunbar Club
The Dunbar Club was organized in 1916 by Mrs. Jessie James, Mrs. Gussie Manning and Mrs. Shepperson. Mrs. Shepperson, who since then has passed away, was a devout member, and we have missed her very much.
This being an art club, the ladies do very beautiful art work. The literary part of the club being advanced also.
Mrs. Skaggs is the present president, and is highly appreciated by the members. Mrs. Rodgers, is the secretary.
The Dunbar has had several successful entertainments, the last one being the anniversary of the club. It was given at the home of the president, the hours being from 4 to 10 p. m. Over 135 guests called to wish us another prosperous year. The members are greatly interested in the City and State Federation work, and looking forward with great anticipation to the Northwestern Federation, which meets here in July. Education Committee One of the most important committees connected with the State Federation is its Educational Committee. This committee is devoting its time
One of the aims of the colored people behind the movement it to construct cottages for the care and treatment of the tubercular. Through its Charity club it has paid the rent of those in need and has borne the expenses of many in ill health who appealed to the club for aid. It has extended its charity to one of the state institutions, providing gifts of clothing and stockings filled with the usual Christmas fancies. A few weeks ago the four colored women's clubs of the city incorporated with the object of intellectual and moral life of their people, according to Mrs. Carter, who said yesterday that by united efforts the women felt that they could make more progress in batterment work.
"Our clubs are making a study of art and literature, music, home economics, civics and educational problems, said Mrs. Carter. "We have four clubs in Phoenix—the Goldinol, of which Mrs. Ada Jones is pres.; the Progressive, headed by Mrs. Nola Hamilton; the Dunbar, Mrs. Elma Skaggs, pres; and the Charity, of which Mrs. L. Ada Walker is chairman. The school girls also have a club—the Sunshine Girls, who study art and literature. Miss Constance Hall, a high school pupil, is the president."
Mrs. Carter said that Mrs. Jessie James, Chairman of the educational

Sanford addressed the Fifth State Legislature in behalf of House Bill No. 75, which passed the House and Senate and was signed by the governor. This bill repeals the segregation in all high schools except 25 in one district. The chairman is planning a trip in the southern part of the state to help get the new school laws just passed before the people. This committee will be glad to help and furnish any information in regard to school laws.

PRESIDING ELDER REV. JAS. H. ALLEN DIED SUDDENLY ON LAST SUNDAY
While en route to Mesa in one of the Union Stage cars, last Sunday, Rev. J. H. Allen, presiding elder of the Albuquerque District of the Colorado Conference, died suddenly. His death occurred about 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon directly opposite the Bonner Hotel in South 5th street. Apparently, he was in good health, for in the morning he delivered the sermon for the congregation at the A. M. E. church. He ate a light lunch and in company with Rev. Wm. Solly, was hurrying to Mesa where he was scheduled to hold services that afternoon.
While engaged in conversation with Rev. Solly, the Rev. Dr. Allen suddenly collapsed, and before medical assistance could be secured, he was dead. The body was taken to the Merryman undertaking parlor where it was prepared for shipment to his home in Denver. Rev. T. J. Sanford pastor of the A. M. E. church here, left Monday evening with the body for Denver where the wife and family reside.
Rev. Allen has been on thisict several years and it is thoub the work was a little too strenuous for a man of his age. He had planned to retire after this year, as he had so often said the work was too hard for him. He was well liked by all the pastors and members in his district and they with his other friends, mourn his untimely death.
SECRET OF SUCCESS
SECRET OF SUCCESS
By Wm P. Crump
During the summer of 1892, while traveling through the State of Pennsylvania selling lithographs of Fred Douglass and John Brown, the two great outstanding abolitionists, I met a man who was a district superintendent for the Carnegie Iron Mills at Braddock. This man had his office not in some skyscraper a mile or so away, but right down in the yard among the buildings that housed that great plant.
I remembered that man particularly of all the hundreds"I met that year, for several reasons. One of the reasons was that he told me that he was having the cellar of the church there renovated and fixed up as a pool hall, so that the young men of Braddock would not be compelled to seek recreation in the numerous saloons that infested the town. And, also, because of his unfailing attention to the innumerable small things that came to his notice during the hours I spent in his company.
From that humble position Charles M. Schwab emerged as head of the steel trust, the originator of the Bethlehem Iron and Steel Company, and to be a commanding figure in national and international affairs. I am no preacher. It is not my forte. But having been an employer of many men for a number of years, I have found that the greatest trouble in getting good help is the inclination of the rising generation to disregard fundamentals. Being afforded this opportunity to preach, I would like to emphasize the lesson taught by the achievements of Charles Schwab. In the struggle for advancement and preferment, there is no question that the young colored boy is handicapped at the start. But I feel assured, if he will not despise the "day of small things," he will be able to discount this handicap in the race of life.
Easter Exercises
Splendid Easter programs will be rendered by the children of the various churches next Sunday. The exercises at the A. M. E. church, contrary to their usual custom, will be held in the morning, due to act that the Knights of Templar will hold their annual services at this church in the evening. The programs at the other churches will be held at night as usual. You are invited to attend the church of your choice.

If you are interested in the new styles, step in and get your copy of "The Man." The style book that's all interesting. Your idea of the right suit will be realized if you come here.

M.
Editor of The Phoenix Tribune
The "Society Column" of a newspaper is always the most interesting column to women readers. Since the majority of the readers of a paper are women, we wanted to make sure that "their column" had an experienced journalist as editor, and we engaged the services of Mrs. Smith, who has made her column as popular with the men and children readers as it is with the women.
Mrs. Smith is a Tennessean by birth, educated in the public schools of Memphis and of wide newspaper experience. Without her and her column, we fear the Tribune would be of little consequence. The management of the Tribune is called into question for a slight error in her column, when a similar mistake in our editorial would be overlooked.
Some may consider it a reflection on our readers to say that they attach so great importance to the local and society news, but all successful newspaper men know that local news is the thing that counts.

SATURDAY, MARCH 26, 1921°
By DRUSILLA DUNJEE HOUSTON, President Oklahoma Training School
The Ancient Cushite Empire of Senate Se Egypt
Most textbooks on Egypt tell us that the ancient Egyptians
were emigrants from Asia, who settled in the Nile Valley and
were probably of Aryan cxtraction. We are told that the woolly,
black complexioned Ethiopian is also of the Aryan race, and that
the civilization of the Ethiopian was derived from the Egyptian.
All of this is in utter contradiction to the testimony of the
Greeks, the Egyptians themselves and the Ethiopians, who all
said that Ethiopia was the teacher of Egypt.
“The very great resemblance between the Egyptians and the
»Cushites makes it undeniable that one owed its civilization to the
other. All the records and traditions of antiquity say that the
civilization of Cusha-Dwipa and the land of Cush were older than
that of Egypt. This is why the annals of the Egyptian priests
were so full of the Ethiopians, who not only played a foremost
and wonderful part in the affairs of the world, but who had been
playing that part long before Egypt became the above of a
civilized community.”—Baldwin.
The oldest nations of history did not originate civilization.
It was handed down from the prehistoric nations that preceded
them. The traditions of Asia bring civilization from the south,
connecting its origin with the Erythraen Sea. This was one of
the prehistoric sites of the old Cushite Empire. These traditions
are confirmed by the inscriptions found in the old_ruins of
Chaldea. The foundations of the culture of Egypt, India and
Chaldea were all laid by the same hand.
Let us follow for a little the written testimony of ancient
writers of authority. ' Diodorus Siculus, Book III: “The Ethio-
pians say that the Egyptians are a colony drawn out of them
by Osiris and that Egypt was formerly no part of the continent,
but a sea at the beginning of the world, but that afterwards it
was made land by the River Nile.” We know that Osiris was a
_ god of Egypt and also one of the kings of the ancient Cushite
Empire. This testimony as to Egypt’s geological formation,
science backs today.
Herodotus gives us the report of the Egyptians as to the
formation of their land. Herodotus, Book II: “They say that in
} the time of Menes all Egypt except the district of Thebes was a
morass, and that no part of the land now existing below Lake
Myris was them above the water. To this place from the sea
‘was seven days’ passage by water.” This being true, would show
that when the ancient Cushite Empire was in the zenith of its
power Egypt in a large measure had not been redeemed from
the sea.
Rennel, after thorough study of the geological formation of
Egypt, says: “The configuration and composition of the lowlands
of Egypt leaves no room for doubt that the sea once washed the
base of rocks on which the pyramids of Egypt stand, the present
base of which is washed by the inundations of the Nile, at an
elevation of 70 or 80 feet above the present level of the Mediter-
ranean. How remote must be the period when Egypt had, not
become the gift of the Nile!” Renan says: “Egypt had no in-
fancy, because its first colonists had been civilized in Ethiopia.
* Egypt did not begin with Menes.”
Dodorus Siculus: “The laws, customs, religious observances
and letter’ of the ancient Egyptians closely resembled those of
the Ethiopians, the colony still observing the customs of their
. ancestors.” Egyptians in later days affirmed that they and their
civilization came from the black tribes of Punt. There is no
evidence that the civilization of Egypt was developed in Egypt.
It must have been translated there from some other country.
The reign of Menes began almost 4000 B. C. H was a prince
of upper Egypt, the older of two countries. He made a change
in the channel of the Nile. Many ages of civilization preceded
this. Bunsen believed the time before Menes greater than since.
Lepius says: “Under the fourth dynasty, 6000 years ago, the.
nation had approached the highest development, of which the
ruins still bear witness. The admirable system of monumental
writing showed its highest perfection in the oldest ruins,”
The priest of Sias said to Solon: “You Greeks are novices in
knowledge of antiquity. You are ignorant of what pass-d, either
here or among yourselves in days of old. The history of 8000
years is deposited in our sacred books; but I can ascend to much
higher antiquity and tell you what our fathers have done for
9000 years. I mean their institutions, their laws and their. most
brilliant achievements.” Baldwin says: “Neither Solon or Plato
thought this improbable. There is no doubt that they had
preserved. old records of the early period of their history
extending beyond Menes.”
From this testimony we will decide that civilization did not
originate with Egypt, but came from her predecessor, of which
she was a colony. We must decide that the marvels of Ugypt
were not the work of the Retu. Reclus says: “Neither Ushers
Chronology nor the little country known as Phoenicia will sufiice
to explain that mighty and widespread influence of the Cushite
race in human affairs, whose traces are still visible from farther
India to Norway.”
PRESCOTT
The Prescott 8S. A, C. met at the

Among the crops to which the at-

creased interest during the past year
and which will undoubtly prove a
|source of steady income to many is
| broom corn, which has been shown by
actual experiment not only to be a
remunerative crop but one which in
quality equais or exceeds that of any
other part of the United States. More
than 600 acres were devoted to this
crop during the past season, and it. is
considered probably that much more
Jand will be given over to it this year.
It has been demonstrated that broom
corn in the Salt River valley will pro-
duce two crops a season with but one
planting, yielding about one and one-
fourth tons per acre. The cost of pro-
ducing and -harvesting is small, com-
pared with many other crops.
At the present time the market
prices on broom corn range from $50
to $400 a ton, according to quality. The
highest standard of both standard and
dwarf broom corn seed obtainable bas
Veen obtained for sale here. With
proper planting and handling it is pro-
ducing an exceptionable grade of corn.
as both soil and climatic conditions for
the product are ideal.
‘The present supply of broom corn
used in Arizona is practically all im-
ported from the Lindsey district of
Oklehoma, and the extent of the im-
portations may be gaugaged from the
fact that one broom concern in Phoenix
brings in more than $50,000 worth of
|corn annually.
‘With the more extensive cultivation
of broom corn it is declared that a new
Phase of agricultural development in
the valley will begin. While the local
demand would be comparatively tri-
vial, every bale of the corn would find
an immediate demand in outside mar-
Kets. Another fact in connection with
‘the growing of this staple is that the
| seed has an intrisic value on the mar-
‘kets for planting, or it may be used
as food for poultry and hogs, for which

other fovds, has been definitely demon-

AFRICAN M. E. CHURCH OF PHOENIX IS SOON TO BE REPLACED BY NEW BUILDING
After 22 years of faithful service and shelter to an ever-increasing congregation, the little, old church and parsonage known as the Tanner chapel of the African Methodist Episcopal church at the southeast corner of Jefferson and Second streets, soon will be torn down to make way for what is considered to be one of the finest new church buildings in the Southwest.
The design of the new structure is a clever adaption by Architect Curtis Tobey of the beautiful Spanish renaissance which, with its large blank areas relieved here and there by fine classic enrichments, lends itself most admirably to church requirements under climatic conditions such as are found in Southern California, Arizona and Mexico. The motif of the interior is similarly clean-cut and direct, but rich in shadow and soft color tones.
The church proper will occupy the central portion of the building with wide transepts on either side so arranged with folding partitions that either may be used as independent classrooms or thrown open to increase the seating capacity of the church to 400. The basement will contain, beside the hot air ventilating furnace and store soom, a social hall and

made for a fine new pipe organ which will be concealed behind fretted panels operated electrically and played from a movable console.
Although this movement for a new church and parsonage building was talked for some time, it has been left to the untiding energy and perseverance of Rev. T. J. Sanford and his advisors to bring it to a 'real issue. It is the first enterprise of its kind ever launched anywhere in the Southwest and its success will undoubtedly stimulate other colored communities to do likewise.
Before coming to Phoenix about sixteen months ago to take charge of Tanner Chapel A. M. E. church, Rev. Sanford served as chief secretary to the Southwest Missouri Conference. In his youth he attended the public schools of Des Moines, Iowa, was a Justice of the Peace in Lee Township, Des Moines, for four years, finished a complete theological course at the Western University, Quindarto, Kans., and a course at Drake University. He then became pastor of the A. M. E. church at Emporia, Kans., and finally transferred from pastor at Manhattan, Kans., to his duties here.
Tanner Chapel was founded 23 years ago and the present church building and site was purchased from the congregation of the First Christian church Frank Shirley, who is still one of the leading members of this church, gave the first dollar for the purchase of the building and site. Allen Smith was one of the original trustees and is today the treasurer of the present trustee board. Other members of the board are, A. R. Smith, secretary; Don Moss, Walter McKenney, Joseph Robinson, Charles Ward, Julius Tubes, John King and Lewis Williams.
Thus, with a background of wide experience and the confidence not only of his bishop, the Right Rev. H. B. Parks, his parishoners and the entire colored population of Phoenix, but also the confidence and esteem of all who know him and the scope of his work, Rev. Sanford is certain the necessary funds will be raised for the work within a record-breaking time.
Hampton, Va., March 24—"For Negroes, as for all other people, good homes mean better individual and community health and happiness," declared Miss Carrie Alberta Lyford, director of the Hampton Institute School of Home Economics, in her recent Atlantic City address on "Home-making Needs of the Negro," delivered before the National Society for Vocational Education. Miss Lyford said:
"Training in home-making is the fundamental need for the girls and the women of the Negro race. To secure better homes the Negro population must have better paid teachers with a wider vision, more thorough training, and more painstaking industry-teachers with the ability to fire Negro women to do their part in the betterment of community life. The small cottage, similar in type to that in which the local Negro lives, must be provided at the school in order to furnish opportunity for the practice of housework according to the best modern methods and to instill a love for the well-kept home.
"Training in home-making must not be limited to the young people in the schools if improved home conditions are to be realized within a generation. Extension classes in home-making for housewives and continuation classes for industrial workers must be provided." Miss Lyford outlined the operating of the Negro Organization Society of Virginia for securing "better health, better schools, better homes, and better farms."

THINGS SCON WILL BEGIN TO HAPPEN IN WASHINGTON BUT NOBODY KNOWS WHAT
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., March 24. Things will begin to hum in Washington in a short while. Something is going to happen. Just what is enveloped in haze. But in whatever direction one pleases, there comes the feeling that a chunk of happening is about, to fall and strike some one on the head or his or her divers aspirations. President Harding is charmingly an enigma. And it is out of this gracious, though baffling, attitude toward things in general, and the Negro in particular, that there arises a mist of anxious and somewhat watchful waiting by the folks "who did the work and decided the election."
There is going to be legislation on lynching presented to the next Congress. To the Associated Negro Press Senator McCormick of Illinois stated that he will again bring up his bill which provides for a Commission on lynching, consisting of five members to be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate." The commissioners are to be without salary, except one member designated as Secretary, who shall be paid $5,000 yearly. The commission would be authorized to conduct general inquiry into the subject of lynchings in the United States, and make a final report.
Senator Curtis, of Kansas, has another bill, which he expects to reintroduce, that makes a penalty on the county in which lynchings occur. There has been some discussion about the constitutionality of this measure, but Senator Curtis stated to the Associated Negro Press, that in his opinion the sub-committee would find the measure constitutional. The sentiment against lynchings is not confined to any section of the country, and has grown with tremendous rapidity, so much so, that Congress cannot longer ignore action on this terrible crime.
"What is going to be President Harding's policy with reference to the Colored American?" That is a universal question, and a very natural one. It can be stated on the very highest authority that President Harding is going to be President of all the people, and that he proposes to emphasize American citizenship rather than racial divisions.
There have been few things written on race relations that have been commented on in the newspapers as generally, and by the people at large, as the recent article by former President Taft on southern appointments. While it stands to reason that the President has not yet had an opportunity to give careful consideration to the subject of southern appointments, there is no record of any statement he has made up to date, or any inference, that he will pursue any new policy. As a matter of fact, it can be said with more certainty that he will not. It is a situation where both sides must use good sense and common judgment, said one of the national leaders. Continuing, he said: "This is not to let an administration of antagonism, and that applies to all."
There seems to be widespread belief that the enlarged committee appointed to consider southern representation in the next national convention knocks in the head the scheme of the "lily whites" and their followers, to wipe Colored Americans from the Republican political map. So strongly were the presentations of actual disfranchisement placed before the sub-committee, that the Committee as a whole refused to take up the subject at their last meeting. It appears now that the committee in their investigations will bring back a report on the conditions of disfranchisement rather than recommend a plan of elimination.
"The Committee on Race Legislation" is the name adopted by the
group of national leaders who met here during inaugural week and formally opened headquarters at 1216 Pennsylvania Avenue. Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Robert R. Church and Charles A. Cottrill were named to select a permanent committee representative of all the states in the Union, with a view to hacking and watching all legislation affecting the race. The enlarged committee is now in progress of formation. In the meantime the headquarters, situated a little more than half way between the Capital and the White House, and practically in sight of both, is functioning in a state of preparation, and a conference center on momentous questions of state. Occasionally one may hear a general discussion of patronage. This subject has been discussed less than ever before, and even the daily newspapers are commenting on the dearth of applications for federal office as compared with previous administrations.
Among the big surprises is the group of prominent citizens who are not seeking federal appointment. This may be attributed to two things, at least. First, Federal salaries in comparison with the present high cost of living are not the most inviting. There was a time when the Federal employee who got $4,000 a year was "drawing down more" than ninety-nine and one half per cent of all the people. But today there are scores and scores of people in all parts of the country to whom $4,000 looks small. (There are many to whom it yet looks large.) The second reason, therefore, is the fact that those who used to seek political
LABOR SITUATION AMONG BLACK
(By the Associated Negro Press)
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Washington, March 24.—The Department of Labor has just issued a second study on Negro labor consisting of a monograph of 144 pages giving data about occupations in which Negroes were most generally employed during the war period, the average number of working hours, opinions of employers who employed Negroes and the Negro workers records as to absenteeism, turnover, etc. The report also gives full account of the plans, policies, methods of handling the problems dealt with by the Department of Labor during the past three years for increasing the efficiency of Negro workers and improving the relations of Negro workers, white workers and employers.
Figures showing the distribution of Negro men in unskilled occupations in twenty-six states, comprising 62, 340 Negro workers in 292 firms in the different war industries in 1918 are given. The large percentage of increase of Negroes in meat-packing establishments from 1916 to 1919 and an analysis of the occupations of 24,640 Negro workers in the shipbuilding plants under the jurisdiction of the U. S. Shipping Board, studies of Negroes in iron and steel plants and other basic industries during the war are included. The opinions of employers who have had experience with Negro workers, have been ascertained and tabulated. A brief summary is given of the large shift of Colored women from domestic and personal service into industrial and clerical occupations during the war period.
In commenting on the publication Dr. George E. Haynes of the Department of Labor said, "The facts given in this second study of Negro labor have been very carefully gathered, collected and analyzed. The tables and figures and other data while limited in quantity and scope are accurate and probably the most available and almost the only material covering these problems."

: Every year sees Increasing’ numbers
‘of farmers in the Salt River valley join
Jin the ranks of those who believe in
and proctice crop rotation. Crop’ ro-
dation aad companion cropping amount
to and about the same thing, with com
| panion cropping showing slight advan
‘tages, over crop rotation in several
‘directions.
| Someffields are now going into al:
faifa, with barley, oats or wheat iter:
‘cropped. Some are going in the same
Bale with white sweet clover for the
‘same purpose. The only drawlack to
intercropping wheat and sweet clover
is that mills ¢o not like to. make flour
jout of the wheat, as the clover gives
‘it a slight fragrance,
| A good combinatzon crap to plant
with whegt is vetch or field ‘peas.
When planting a combination crop care
should be used not to use more than
40 pounds of wheat or 30 pounds of
either the vetch or the sweet peas. The
same advice holds gooll in Ahe case algo
ot barley or oats. In the latter ease 3¢
pounds bf barley and 35 pounds of oats
give the best results when a seed crop
is to be harvested. +
‘The reason for this light seeding
when using a legume is outlined in
this manner: Grain rdots have an es:
cubic inches. They. go mainly to a
depth of five or six inche. Vetch is
only a winter growing legume, as is
also the field pea. Vetch is also the
best growing winter legume known.
and it is estimated that its roots will
cover @ feeding area of about 4,000
“cubic inches, and the root system is
deeply matted, The field pea has a
root system almost as good. The sweet
clover, in the first year of planting,
has a root sfstem about the same as
the field pea. Sour clover has a root
system hardly equal to that of the
same clover grown in the same space
of ‘time. These legume roots have the
following effects on/ the grain:
The soil water, which contains the
plant food, follows these roots from
great depth up to the surface mulch,
thus allowing more plant food to reach
the grain roots than would otherwise
come in contact with them, which, in
effect is the same as extending the
roots very deep into the subsoil.
By saving only one-half as many
plants growing because of light sow:
ing, as is advocated, there will be
larger and stronger plants, with better
root systems. It also does, away with
the danger of overcrowding the plants
so that they stool fully. More stools
per grain plant will prevent under this
nicthod of growing, the heads will be
larger and the grain will weigh more
to the sack.
It is understood,-in connection..with
the foregoing, that the best results are
not to be expected unless the plants
are supplied with the nitrogen which
enables them to’ become strong grow.
ers. Native bacteria have been found
wanting, so that it is necessary to ap-
ply artificial inoculation.
Alfalfa and sweet clover are gener
ally used in this kind of planting when
it is'desired to keep the legame crop
after the grain is harvested. In the
ease of sweet clover, however, it will
supply about six weeks of fine, heavy
pasture, even if it is to be turned
under later for some summer crop.
The sweet clover kills wry easily with
discing,
We have with us not only the poor,
but the fellow who owes us for a last
year’s subscription.

Statistics Prove This City on Way to
Metropolitan Proportions—State
‘Also Shows Great Progress
| Phoenix, strictly speaking, may not
have reached metropolitan proportions
yet, but it is well on its way and
many declare without an undue ap-
pearance of braggadocio that the goal
jis almost within sight, according to
officials of the Chamber %f Com-
merce, wha back uf their assertions
with an most string of figures.
Beginning with’ the state, of which
Phoenix isthe hub, capital and chiet
icity, the population for 1920 is given
Jat 333,273, as compared with 204,354
for the census of 1910. Of this num-
ber, Maricopa county has become
‘haven of refuge to 89,488, and of this
fatter number 25,000 have passed
through the other cities and towns
lof the state and have unloaded their
ares and penates permanently with-
in the environs of Phoenix. © This, of
‘course, does not include the great
number who ere in the city simply
looking it over before buying a lot
‘and a truckload of lumber and. stay-
ing here.
‘The assessed valuation of the state
jis given dt $884,455,682.50, to which
must be added $779,000 credited to
the private car lines within the state,
giving a total of $886,682.50. ‘This
total, it was said yesterday, is accu-
rate to the last penny of the 60 cents
tacked on the end of millions pre-
ceding it. Of this huge amount Sfart-
copa county has $134,246,641, while
‘Phoenix puts $41,000,000 on the right
side of the ledger. These assess-
ments are compared with those for
1910-1911 as follows: Arizona, $98,
032,208; Maricopa county, $21,244.24,
and Phoenix, $9,013,853.
| ‘Tremendous Gain in Bank Deposits
| Bank deposits up to May 4, 1920,
are placed at $108,877,610.45 for the
state; _$30,282,715,40 for Maricopa
county, and $24,830,287.68 for Phoe-
nix. While the bank deposits for the
state increased approximately five
times during the decade since 1910,
they increased more than six times
for Maricopa county and the city of

compared with $23,992,749.35 ten
years ago. The bank resources of
Phoenix “amount to $27,636,360.64, as
compared with $5,228,427.41 during
1910.
‘That the real resources of the
state and its chief city, however, are
in its school children, and always
have been thus, is shown by the fig-
ures for the school census. Arizona
has 85,213 “children learning their
A B C’s and differential calculus
throughout the state, and of this
number Maricopa has nearly one-
third, or 25,133. Phoenix has 9,652,
as compared with 7,324 in 1919.
In the matter of automobiles, which
have become largely the measure of
wealth in any community, “Phoenix
has much more than one-third of the
entire number in the state. Of the
33,968 which are listed for Arizona,
13,968 are registered in Maricopa
county. ‘These are figures for the
first 10 months of the year.
Other items of interest m the tabu-

We therefore take this opportunity to thank our patrons, subscribers, representatives and advertisers for their hearty co-operation and support during the past three years, and to bespeak their continued patronage for the year upon which we have just entered. The Tribune, while conscious of many faults and imperfections, is proud of the place it has won and held among the weekly newspapers of the country which are wielding such tremendous influence for good among our race. Our newspapers are being read as never before, not only by our own people, but by thoughtful people of the other group who, as students of social and economic conditions, realize that the thoughts and activities of such a large ethnic group as our own is worthy of attention and study.
Journalism among us has become a recognized power. The need for strong, well-edited, clean, reliable, fearless journals to champion the rights of our people is apparent to all. Critics and contemporaries recognize The Tribune as holding high rank among such a group of newspapers. We are proud of the place we hold and shall do all in our power to deserve and maintain it. We are gratified at the confidence placed in us by the people who look to us for guidance and leadership, and we will never willingly or knowingly betray that confidence. What we believe to be right, that we shall fearlessly maintain. What we believe to be wrong, we shall with equal fearlessness condemn. Our desire is to serve better in the future than in th past. With increased support we shall be able to add many new features to our publication.
Few of our readers realize the anxiety and strain placed upon newspapers during the past year. It has meant for nearly all papers, even those who were heavily capitalized, a struggle for existence. The cost of publication increased enormously. For example, the cost of print paper increased 400 per cent. Everything else entering into the publishing business advanced at a corresponding ratio. Is it any wonder that many newspapers were compelled to suspend? Fortunately, The Tribune was able to survive, although we are frank to confess that we had to struggle hard for an existence.
We take our readers into our confidence now because we believe that they will realize the necessity of paying their subscriptions promptly, cheerfully and gladly. We want you to know that it costs money to publish The Tribune and that we must rely upon our patrons to supply it by paying their subscriptions promptly and by helping to increase the demand for our publication as an advertising medium.
GOING AT FULL SPEED
The great Philadelphia Daily Public Ledger, noting the rapid progress of our group, says editorially:
In all history there is hardly anything to compare with the progress of the American Negro in the little more than 50 years since emancipation.
An article in the current number of the Commercial and Financial Chronicle says there are now in the United States 12,000,000 Negroes. They constitute one-seventh of the working force of the country. Of the 3,000,000 men, 800,000 are farmers and 1,000,000 farm laborers. Eighty per cent of the women are in necessary home and industrial life.
In 1866 Negroes in this country owned 12,000 houses, operated 20,000 farms, conducted 2,100 businesses and had $20,000,000 of accumulated wealth. In 1916 the number of houses had increased to 600,000, the operated farms to 881,000, the businesses to 45,000 and the wealth to $1,110,000,000.
Four hundred thousand Negroes were called to the colors during the recent war and 200,000 of them saw service overseas.
There is less illiteracy proportionately, the Chronicle says, among the Negroes in 1921 than there was among the white population of the United States at the time of the Civil War. In Alabama the Colored population contributed $430,000 toward the $1,133,000 cost of establishing 720 Rosenwald schools.
MAN: AN ESSAY
(Written by a Lady Who Knows.)
Men are what women marry. They have two feet, two hands, and sometimes two wives; but never more than one collar or one idea at a time.
Like Turkish cigarettes, men are all made of the same material; the only difference is that some are a little more disguised than others.
Generally speaking, they may be divided into three classes—husbands, bachelors and widowers.
Bachelors come in two varieties—eligible and ineligible.
An eligible bachelor is a body of vanity completely surrounded by women.
An ineligible bachelor is a mass of obstinacy, and entirely surrounded by suspicion.
Husbands are of three varieties—prizes, surprises and consolation prizes.
Making a husband out of a man is one of the highest plastic arts known to civilization.
It requires science, sculpture, common sense, faith, hope and charity—especially charity.
In these days of feminism, a husband is of no importance whatever until you have tried living your whole life without one.
A divorced husband isn't any better than none at all.
It has been a matter of scientific wonder that a soft, fluffy, tender violet-scented, sweet little thing like a woman should enjoy kissing a big awkward, stubby-chinned, tobacco and bay rum-scented thing like a man.
RIGHT LIVING
The man who lives a straight, useful, religious life himself, makes one of the greatest contributions to Christianity that can be made. There is nothing in this world like setting an example for others to follow. A blameless life draws to the mountain peak where words fail to touch a soul or move a heart. Those who feel that they can force others to be more worshipful, who would exact reverence for God and His institutions by law.
have a wrong conception of their duty. Let your light so shine as to make the way plain and attractive for your fellows, but don't undertake to force goodness, for it is as useless as to pinch a rosebud in order to make it open into full and glorious blossom.
TO THE COLORED PEOPLE OF AMERICA
By WILLIAM C. ALLEN
The writer is a member of the Society of Friends, or Quakers, who before the abolition of slavery in the British Empire and the United States, were well known as earnest workers on behalf of the freedom of the Negro race. Often has our denomination in bygone days suffered contempt and loss of property because we tried to help you.
Now, as a Friend, I want to help you. You have difficulties to encounter which your ancestors did not know. It is true that many of you are at present discouraged because of your trials. We cannot wonder at this.
But it is exceedingly important to remember how far your race has advanced in America the past 55 years. You have a record to be glad of. Compare your present holdings of real estate, your bank accounts, your schools, your churches, your honored men, with the insignificant position you held with respect to these matters 55 years ago. You are a new race and in a short time have forged ahead beyond what any of us would then have thought possible. Get the government statistics referring to these things and many of you will be astonished at your own progress!
I have observed the condition of the Negro race in many lands. While in some small countries a few hundred thousands of Negroes have advantages, nowhere except in America do so many of them have as much good food, clothing and the regard of the white race as in the United States.
Now some men urge you to resent the ill-will of those who are not your friends. This will be a bad thing for you to do. Hate begets hate, force begets force, evil begets evil. You have made your wonderful progress the past, 55 years in spite of receiving ill treatment and injustice from some quarters. You have given a fine example to the world of the possibilities of development whilst trusting in God. Do not now throw away that trust and so invite trouble for yourselves or for your children.
Do not think too much about those who have ill-used you. Do not forget that many white people have abused other white people far more than have the white people abused you of latter years. Remember that you have millions of true friends in America. The Federal Council of the Churches of Christ, representing millions of church people, has spoken on your behalf. Recollect how the friendship of those who esteem you is proved by their contributions to your schools and colleges. Do not forget that while unkind words hurt, and injustices burn into our souls, there are many, many people in America who speak kind words to you and who are working on your behalf. You may not always see them, but they are all about you. Do not disappoint them by loss of self-control. Keep all your friendships bright.
I appeal to you on behalf of your friends, as well as on your own behalf, not to listen to the advice of those who advocate "striking back." The recent war has proved that force does not secure rights as does a constant, cheerful working out of the problems that assail us. Do not give up your past steady way of improvement for a new way which will only invite disaster for yourselves and your children.
Those of you who know the truth of what I say will have need of using all their influence to quiet the hot heads among you. This must be done if your race is to continue its fine development in America. If your ministers continue to preach trust in God you will discover that the spiritual forces are stronger than all else. You will find that your material development will continue to grow. Great are the possibilities for you as you continue in well-doing!

"WHY AMERICA SHOULD BE PROUD OF THE NEGRO"
By WILLIAM PICKENS
We heard this subject discussed recently by one of the star graduates at a Colored high school commencement—in the South. High school orations of any race anywhere are always interesting: the orators are so positive and so cocksure. But an oration at a Colored high school graduation in a Southern city, when members of the (white) school board are present with a few of their families and friends, and the re-election of the Colored principal and his teachers is to take place about ten days after the commencement—such a high school oration is in a class by itself.
On this particular occasion there were present about two thousand Colored people and about fifty white officials and their friends. The Colored graduates were wonderful; they were bright and witty and showed a disposition to naturalness. But every one of the orations delivered by these graduates showed that the hands of their superiors had helped to shape them, and that those master hands had been guided more by considerations of that part of the audience which numbered fifty than by any regard for that part of the audience which numbered two thousand. This is a visible pity; it fettered the naturalness and curbed the power of these children.
Finally the valedictorian, as a sort of star witness, came on with a carefully denatured oration on this subject: "Why America Should Be Proud of the Negro." The child was a good speaker, and has brains, but they had been crammed into narrow channels.
We will give here, from memory, some of the points made in the speech, because they have stuck, not so much in our memory as in our craw. In the parenthesis we simply indicate our mental comment at the time. The orator summed up:
"America should be proud of the Negro—
1. "Because he is not a revolutionist!" (George Washington and Thomas Jefferson!)
2. "Because he does not rebel!" (General Lee and Jefferson Davis!)
3. "Because he is not an agitator!" (Susan B. Anthony and the Prohibitionists!)
4. "Because he believes in the goodness of labor!" (Thomas Edison and all other inventors, why try to make machines do the work?)
5. "Because he does not doubt or fret or worry!" (Robert Browning and Rabbi Ben Ezra!)
6. "Because he never believes in force! (Woodrow Wilson and force' force to the uttermost!)
7. "Because he believes in racial integrity!" (Three million mulattoes!)
8. "Because he lives by the sweat of his brow!" (Jews and Gentiles!)
9. "Because he is not a radical!" (Jesus Christ!)
And the president of the school board spoke approvingly, the Colored principal looked safe, and the white fifty clapped and nodded condescendingly, and the Colored audience—talked for weeks afterward.
"Southern Negro Leadership Best," is the conclusion reached by a writer in the Raleigh, N. C., Observer. Fiddlesticks! What we really need is sound leadership. As a matter of fact, this question of section must be taken down to the cellar of our considerations and buried in its darkest corner, never to be brought again to the light of day. These are no times to be talking of South, North, East or West. We must surely stand together. If we don't we will as surely hang together.
CURRENT AND OTHERWISE
By W. H. A. MOORE
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
The reports from the Drama League dinner declare that Actor Gilpin deported himself like a gentleman, made a good speech, did not use his knife to get the food to his waiting mouth, and altogether created a rather fine impression on the people present. In other words, he "functioned 100 per cent." I am disappointed. I expected he would upset a few tables getting to his seat, eat with his knife, jazz his soup into the lap of the person sitting nearest to him and, in fact, do everything but act like the born gentleman he is. All of which reminds me that the proverbial tempest in a teapot has nothing on many Americans when they get into their heads that they must do something supremely silly.
A group of Chinese students at the University of Chicago have asked one thousand persons the three following questions: "What is your idea of God?" Do you believe in God?" "Why?" Someone has said that the Chinese are really too curious. It was at the end of a banquet at which Li Hung Chang, the great Chinese statesman, had put the query to his auditors, "What is civilization?" Impudent? I should say he was. And so do I determine the aforesaid Chinese students. And yet I am almost tempted to answer that God is the supreme and Holy Being in whom we all believe but refuse, absolutely, to obey. "Why?" simply muddies the water and musses up things in general. It looks to me like another evidence of the "yellow peril" in our midst.
If, as some Southern journals declare, President Harding does not believe in "Social Equality," what in the thunder does he believe in that's American? "Social Equality" is the basic principle upon which the Republic was founded. Take it away from any of the elements that are part and parcel of its citizenry and the structure will literally fall about our heads. If somebody was to assert that the President has small faith in a promiscuous disposition of the favors of SOCIAL TIMIDITY I would respond with a hearty AMEN! As it is, I don't care a tinker's rap whether Mr. Harding believes in "Social Equality" or not. That's his business, not mine. In my own right I am going to be the social equal of anybody I am big enough to match in wits and ability to do the work of life.
YOUR MANNERS
To say, "Let me present," when making an introduction.
To present the gentleman to the lady.
To mention the lady's name first, as "Mrs. Blank, let me present Mr. Brown."
To ask a lady's permission before introducing masculine strangers to her.
To introduce a younger to an older person, or a maiden to a matron, as "Mrs. A., let me present Miss B."
It Is Not Correct
To say, "Let me make you acquainted with," or "Shake hands with."
To present a distinguished person to an unknown as "Mr: Blank. let me present Governor Brown."
To speak the names in such haste that they will not be understood.
It Is Correct When Receiving Introductions
To extend the hand when someone is presented to you in your own home.
To bow and repeat the name, or say, "How do you do?"
To rise, except at formal affairs, when a lady may remain seated unless presented to an older or distinguished person.
To rise at all times if you are the hostess or if you are seated by her.
To ask to have a name repeated if it escaped you.
*It Is Not Correct*
To wait longer than two days before acknowledging receipt of a letter of introduction.
For a woman to present a letter of introduction in person; it should be mailed to the addressee with her card.
To fail to write a letter of appreciation to the person who gives you a letter of introduction.
To introduce all guests to the ladies of a reception committee at public or subscription balls. To neglect to introduce people who are brought together temporarily for golf, tennis, etc.
WORTHLESS STOCK SELLING
So flagrant has the practice grown of selling worthless stock to gullible investors that several bills have been introduced into the New York Legislature seeking to safeguard the public. Through the registration of brokers offering stock and the filing of maps and descriptions of property referred to in prospectuses as containing oil and minerals, it is sought to insure a certain degree of genuine merit in the stock propositions put forth. Whether any of these bills will be enacted into laws, and how effective they would prove if so enacted, remains to be seen.
It is hard to protect those who will not take the most ordinary precautions to protect themselves against the schemes of dishonest promoters. One of this kind is said to have boasted that he could sell shares in the Brooklyn bridge or the Municipal building by taking his prospect, as the gullible customer is called, through a tour of inspection of either one of these properties. It is not to be wondered at, then, that it is possible for a nervy operator to sell stock in dwelling houses to which property he has no title or interest whatsoever. Or, to vary the program, he may only sell an apartment, with the privilege of the purchaser to pay rent until the purchase price is completed. But in no case can he give any title to the property, either in bulk or by apartments.
Such schemes as these could not succeed if it were not for the credulity of those having a little money, in parting with it upon gauzy pretensions, which they do not investigate, but swallow without the slightest attempt to discover if there is any truth in them. In view of this tendency among many people to part with their hard earnings so readily, it would be well for the ministers to drop a word of caution to the members of their congregations against such unwise investments. Many of this class of investors, through their failure to read the papers, fall an easy prey to the oldest kind of confidence game. Most of them, however, have their religious affiliations, and put faith in the advice from the pulpit. A pastoral word of warning would be respected and might save the hearer from worldly loss.
Any proposition to raise millions of dollars by selling stock for the underwriting of Negro business corporations should be carefully scrutinized before committing one's cash to the undertaking. The raising of capital on this stock would be at considerable cost for commissions and expenses. The question would then be, how is this stock to be brought back to par after the deduction of the initial expenses which are to go to the promoters of the scheme? It is a proposition which involves too much risk for the prudent investor, who looks for safety for his principal with a small but regular dividend return.
The law and the pupit may combine to protect the too confiding public from the sellers of shares in the "blue sky" corporations, but in the last analysis the investor must learn to protect himself by turning a deaf ear to worthless stock propositions. Protect your pocketbook by posting yourself as to the essential qualities of a good investment. If you have any doubts as to the merits of the investment or the character of the promoters, pass it up—New York Age.

EYELET WORK IN BLOUSES
The last word in blouses appears in this rich model of crepe de chine and eyelet embroidery. It has a short peplum pointed at the bottom, each point supporting a long silk tassel and a girdle of ribbon held to the long waistline by little rings.
NOVEL STYLE IN SUIT
VIII
For those who are looking for something entirely new, suits like that shown above are provided in the spring displays in which capes or capelike overgarments or blouses with short close-fitting peplums take the place of the regulation suit coat. This new idea has been worked out with fine success in the model pictured.
ARTFUL USE OF CHECKS
9
A plain skirt in black and white wool that refuses to hide its checkered career behind plaits, is nevertheless artful in the management of tucks that are cleverly placed above the hem. These tucks are rounded off at one side and a large black and white button on each one calls attention to its novel ending.
OF SHEPHERDS CHECK
1920
One of the best of this season's separate skirts is presented here and it pleases every one who loves neat and crisp tailored clothes. It is made of a material that has a stripe of shepherd's check alternating with one of black with a white line through it. Box plaits almost conceal the black stripe.

Editor and Owner of The Phoenix Tribune
Fellow Citizens: 1 greet you on this our third anniversary and want
you to know that I fully appreciate and am thankful for the support you
have given The Tribune. The idea of establishing a newspaper in Phoenix
came to me in 1917, and for six or seven months I weighed the chancas
of success against the chances of failure. Finally, in March, 1918, while
working and waiting for the opportunity and proper time to launch this
enterprise, I saw a motto that inspired me, and Thé Tribune today is the
result of that inspiration. Perhaps you would like to know what that
motto was. I will tell you. It was this: “Don’t wait for great occasions,
‘but seize common occasions and make them great.”
In our humble way we have tried to make The Tribune a great news-
paper. We resolved at the beginning to conduct a clean, conservative and
reliable journal, giving the public the best we had with a firm belief that
the best would come back to us. In this we have not been mistaken, and
today we are gratified to know that there is a constantly increasing demand
for The’ Tribune,
In the beginning we sought to steer clear of politics, but in the, late
campaign there was too much at stake, and being a “standpat” Republican,
We were forced to show our colors . For doing this we have no regrets oF
apologies to make, and should a simitar political situation arise, you will
find us lined up with the G. 0. P.

SCHOOL QUESTION IN
MISSOURI SIMILAR
TO ONE IN ARIZONA
Jefferson City, Mo. March 24—A
few days ago, in the House of Repre-
sentatives, the County Unit Bill, which
provides for a county board of educa-
tion to have general control over the
schools of each county, for the quali-
zation of school taxation, and for a
degree vf state aid to poor conditions
may be afforded and that Missouri
in the near future may be enabled to
struggle out of its deep and sticky
mire of ignorance. Speaker Samuel
F. O'Fallon took the floor for the bill,
and in a lengthy and inpassioned ad-
dress left the usual plane of medi-
ocrity and soared to the highest pinn-
cale of statesmanship. He went a bit
out of his way to nefer to his “Colored
friend,” Representative Walthall M.
Moore, and to say that he was in fa-
vor of the measure partly Lecause it
would promote ‘several | matters in
which Mr. Mdbre is interested. He said
that he went to school with Negro and
Indian children in Minnesota and he
did not think that it ever hurt him
any. He said that he is not in favor of
mixed schools In Missouri because he
does not think that it would be best
for the Colored people; but he did
say positively and emphatically that
the state must either make adequate
provisions for the education of the
Colored people or it must admit them
to the institutions now existent, in-
cluding the teachers’ colleges and the
‘state university.
The character of Speaker O'Fallon
is so clean, his intellect is so clear,
his habit of equal and aboslute justice
so usual, and his place in the affec-
tions to his fellow legislators so se
cure that no member of the House took
the slightest exception to the speak-
er’s remarks. At the close of his ad-
dress the speaker received an ovation.

GOVERNOR THOMAS E. CAMPBELL
TO THE COLORED CITIZENS OF ARIZONA:
‘There is.no necessity, in my opinion, of sending a colored citizen a
message materially <different from that I would send to apy other citizen.
Upon alk classes of citizenship should be impressed the absolute necessity
for thoroughly and energetically sustaining the principles upon which the
government of the United States is founded. ‘here may be variations that
appear to infringe upon the equality guaranteed by the Constitution; there
may be circumstances under which a larger or a lesser share of the world’s
goods and the public's consideration are bestowed; but, down at the root
of things, upon every citizen falls the righteous burden of carrying his share
of the Nation's responsibilities.
. I know there are exceptions and I know that fate sometimes seems to
show partiality, but I have found thet the decent, sober, industrious man,
the law-abiding man of whatever color, usually “gets on” im this world,
receiving the share that he works for in material benefits, and possessing
ee regard of others to the full extent that he deserves. There are com-
pensations that are Nixed by nature. As a rule, the Colored race is blessed
with strength and vitality and with a cheerful philosophy of. life that is
valuable beyond price. The race has an inclination toward religion and a
trust in the Infinite that assuredly gives to its membership fortitude and
consolation, Its valor and patriotism have been proven on many a battle-
field. You and your associates can have a large part in thé uplift of your
race if you serve in the repression of, everything that fails in tle mainte:
nance of law and of righteous living. Here in Arizona has been made a
splendid start,in the way of larger social interests and organizations,
through which the colored population is looking toward better things. Let
there be fullest support of such efforts, and through them your children
and their children will rise to higher planes and become even more honored
in theff assumption of proper civic responsibilities.
Sincerely yours, 3

THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING
The B. Y. P. U. of the Mt. Olive Baptist church met at the usual hour. Mr. J. Youngblood acted as leader in the absence of the president, Mr. Clarence Maxwell, who with other officers and members of Fort Whipple were unable to attend on account of the rainy weather. The lesson was beautifully discussed and everyone entered into the spirit of the meeting, At 7:45, Rev. Ellington (white) state Missionary of the Baptist church, took charge of the services and after a beautiful song service, delivered a great sermon. Rev. Ellington is one of the most fluent speakers of the Baptist connection and we truly hope he will come again.
Mr. and Mrs. Johnnie Jordan are the proud parents of a bouncing baby boy. Mother and son doing nicely, but the father is suffering with a severe case of "exaggerated ego." He may recover, but will never look the same.

The Prescott Social Art Club met last week with Mrs. Dora Rose at the home of Mrs. Paris Tabron in Montezuma street. Owing to illness, the president Mrs. J. Tull was absent and the vice president Mrs. R. M. Garrett presided. After the transaction of all business, the hostess served a dainty repast that was thoroughly enjoyed by all. The meeting this week will be with Mrs. John Suddoth in N. Granite street. Each member is asked to bring a guest as the refreshments will be served by the club. Mrs. Suddoth is planning to leave soon for an extensive visit with friends and relatives in Arkansas and a musical program has been arranged for this meeting in order that we may in a small way, show our regard for Mrs. Suddoth who has been such a loyal member of this club. Mrs. Joe Anderson of North Virginia street is reported on the sick list this week.
Mrs. Jacob Tull, who lase week was confined to her home with illness, is convalescent. Mrs. Paris Tabron was slightly indisposed last week. Mr. Meadows has been very ill but is convalescent.

Thirty thousand four hundred and fifty-six feet of number one and two clear and D select Arizona pine from theAPACHE LUMBER Co., the big new Three Million Dollar saw mill at Cooley, Arizona. This is the first full car load of finished lumber shipped from the big new saw mill to Phoenix.
The price of clear lumber is advancing now. Common lumber may get some cheaper but all prices are so near normal now that what decline, if any, will not amount to but very few dollars on an ordinary job, and that difference if any, would be saved in labor alone by building before the weather is too hot.
Home building is going ahead with a regularity that is daily convincing more and more people that the other fellow has quit waiting to build and gone right at it. Rents are high as ever and will continue that way while there is a shortage of houses. Building material is 40% cheaper. Take advantage of the situation and share in the profits.
Homes for rent or for your own use, always pay. They not only help you but when you build you help yourself and your city. You give employment to the laborer and mechanic. You put your vacant lot in the income class and increase the value of the entire block in which you build. You cause the traveler to say good things about you and your city. A building is the only class of merchandise you can derive an income from for years and then sell for more than it cost.
Any lumber company in Phoenix will be glad to help you with your lumber needs and give you good service, but none can serve you better than ourselves.

To a person entering a 'business the start is always the darkest. Gradually light breaks in and soon it seems like daylight. This is due to the fact that it seems a large undertaking. But with proper preparation and a thorough understanding of the business, whatever nature it may be, success will follow. Modern life is both complex and intense; the wonderful changes wrought by the extraordinary industrial advantages of the past three or four years are felt in every fiber of our social and economic being.
Upon our success much depends, not only as regards our own welfare, but as regards the welfare of our group. If one fails the entire group is measured by that failure; and therefore our responsibility is heavy to ourselves and to the world. The good thinking people of the other group have looked with profound interest and sympathy upon the efforts and sacrifices we are making and are deeply and sincerely interested in our present and future success.
It behooves us to put into practice those lines penned by Longfellow:
Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time.

A short while since, at Clyde, Georgia, Negro possemen went to the town jail for the particular purpose to lynch one of their race who was charged with the crime of rape. A young Colored girl was the victim. Criminal violation of womanhood is met with summary punishment in the Southland. This punishment generally assumes the melodramatic aspects of a lynching bee. It was meet, therefore, that the Colored men of Clyde, Georgia, should visit the jail, take out the culprit, lead him to the nearest tree and give him a quick passage to the land from whose bourne no traveler returns.
It was a short step from resolution to action. To this was aptly added the sensitively adjusted moral temper of the white citizens of Clyde. Lynching was the handy legal instrument brought out, burnished and oiled, in the common instances wherever Negroes were charged with the crime of rape by the whites all over Georgia. Logic being logic, what better thing to do than to go to the jail, apprehend the culprit, then off to nearest tree and "cut up" like white folks?
But the better nature of the race began to assert itself immediately following the giving over of the culprit to the outraged possemen by the equally sore-souled custodian of the due processes of law, the sheriff. Someone in the crowd was foolhardy enough to suggest prayer as a fitting prelude to the main feature of the evening's program. Then it was that the gun missed fire. Prayer meant reflection, reflection suggested mercy, and mercy saved the culprit.

THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING
MOST SENSATIONAL LOVE TRIANGLE IN HISTORY OF NORTH CAROLINA BROUGHT TO DRAMATIC END
"We Have Found Mrs. Varner Guilty of Committing Adultery with Baxter McCrary," Jury Announces After Forty-two Hours' Deliberation—Case Widely Watched
Readers of The Tribune will no doubt recall the sensational story printed in these columns several months ago about a white man of Greensboro, N. C., bringing suit against a wealthy colored man of that town for alienating his wife's affections. It was thought at that time, and is still the opinion of many, that this suit was brought by Varner in order to get McCrary's money, and that Varner used his wife as a means to that end. Mrs. Varner maintained innocence to the last and put up a strong fight against her husband. The case has attracted wide attention because of the prominence of both the Varners and McCrary. It is said that at the time the suit was instituted Varner owed McCrary considerable money which the latter had loaned him to promote a motion picture house and run a daily newspaper. The following is the final report of the case:
Greensboro, March 24.—Finding Mrs. Florence G. Varner guilty of improper relations with Baxter McCrary, a federal court jury after 42 hours' deliberation at 10:10 o'clock Saturday morning returned a verdict denying her a "reasonable subsistence" from her husband, H. B. Varner, prominent Lexington business man and publisher.
While the jury went into the consultation room shortly before 9 o'clock, indications were that it was still hopelessly deadlocked.
An hour later it sent word to Judge James E. Boyd that a verdict had been reached. Ten minutes later the jurymen filed into the jury box in the federal court room and told the judge they had agreed.
"What is your verdict, gentlemen?" Judge Boyd asked.
"We have found Mrs. Varner guilty of committing adultery with Baxter McCrary," Foreman Sumner declared. Whereupon Judge Boyd read the issues submitted to the jury to be answered and incorporated therein the decision of the jury.
Three Issues Decided
The issues decided on by the jury were as follows:
1. Did the defendant (Varner) separate himself from the plaintiff (Mrs. Varner) and fail to provide her with the necessary subsistence according to his means and conditions in life, as alleged in the complaint?
Answer: Yes.
2. Did the plaintiff commit adultery with R. B. McCryar as alleged in the answer?
Answer: Yes.
3. What shall, if any, should be allowed and paid or secured to the plaintiff for her reasonable subsistence from the estate of the defendant?
Answer: Nothing.
Mrs. Varner, who has been a patient at the Glenwood Sanitarium for several weeks, was prostrated at the news of the verdict and is seriously ill, according to attendants.
Mrs. Varner Suffers Collapse
For several days she had been extremely nervous and when she received the verdict she collapsed, it was said.
When her attorney, O. L. Sapp, walked into the room and said: "Well, the jury has decided against you." Mrs. Varner gave way, according to sanitarium attendants.
O. L. Sapp, attorney for Mrs. Varner, who bore the brunt of the fight in her behalf, stated that he had little to say.
As to whether an appeal will be taken he does not know, and will not until Mrs. Varner has sufficiently recovered to talk of the case.
P. M. Summers, foreman of the jury, was reticent in discussing the case after the verdict was filed this morning. When questioned about the case his first reply was: "I have served on many juries covering a long period of time, and have been called upon to decide many serious and important cases, but this has rivaled anything in my experience."
Jufors Pray for Guidance
Before filing from the room in which they had been confined for a greater part of the time since 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon, the 12 men knelt and the entire jury, with bowed heads, listened to an impassioned plea by one of their number for God, to look upon their work and pronounce it well done. Members of the jury declared that no more powerful plea had ever ascended to heaven than the one sent up from the jury room on the third floor of the federal building.
Guthrie Makes Strong Plea
One of the outstanding features of the trial was the plea of T. C. Guthrie that Mrs. Varner would be returned the winner. He made a strong plea for his client, declaring that Mrs. Varner would have had the same privilege of vindicating herself in Lexington following August 0, 1520.
as if she had entered suit against the devil, with the trial taking place in hell. Her banishment to Utah gave her, however, said Mr. Guthrie, a chance to bring her case to "this court and have it passed upon by a fair jury."
Declaring that Mrs. Varner is one of the fairest specimens of God's handiwork, he said: "Varner tells you that on August 11, 1920, he would have given her a good character. Who is in a better position to tell you?"
He declared that the Lexington people were seeing ghosts and that the rumors against Mrs. Varner were circulated by "Bevoes."
Mr. Guthrie ridiculed the testimony of O. P. Dickerson, in which he testified that he saw McRary and Mrs. Varner exchange signals on the night of July 21, 1920, and that he watched McRary enter the Varner property that night about 10 o'clock, remaining until 1 a.m. With the exception of the signals, the same thing took place on July 22 and 23. The speaker said it is hardly conceivable that people would have such boldness and temerity in public places.
Mr. Dickerson also testified that while in the alleyway in the rear of the Varner home he saw McCryar pass within four feet of him on the three nights in question. "This is not only improbable, but impossible," said he.
"Dickerson only four feet away," could not have remained unseen by McCrary, while McCrary was seen entering the rear porch of the house, 110 feet away, by Dickerson.
He denounced the telephone operator's testimony, stating that these stories were hardly probable.
He told of Mrs. Varner's good character for 19 1/2 years. He said that if it wasn't worth something now, then what is the use of a good character, and that "our womanhood is in danger."
The speaker hotly declared that Mr. Varner's pathway of revenge or McCryar is over the bleeding, mangle remains of that woman (pointing to Mrs. Varner). "If he had taken," said he, "a pistol and shot her through the heart he would have done an act of mercy."
Referring to the statement of Mr. Varner that he intends to donate the money, if any, received in his suit against McCryar, to charity, he asked: "What charity wants money from a man who gets it through the bleeding remains of his wife?"
Mr. Guthrie concluded by pleading with the jury to acquit "this woman, for the sake of womanhood, of justice and for the good name of North Carolina. With this charge hanging over her there isn't six feet of ground on earth for her."
'A MAN MAY BE DOWN BUT HE'S NEVER OUT'
The above is the slogan of the Salvation Army, whose campaign to raise $25,400 to carry on their good work in the State begins Monday, March 21.
This is a religious organization that knows no color and gives its services alike to the distressed of all races, creeds and nationalities.
Every cent collected in the State for the year's quota will be spent by the Salvation Army in relief work among the unfortunates.
To raise this year's quota, an appeal is made to the people of Arizona. "If you cannot give your thousands, you can give a widow's nite, and the least you do for Jesus will be precious in His sight."

_ Giving 3886,000,000 as the total as-
sessed valuation of property in Ari-
zona for 1920, C. M. Zgnder in his
introduction of the biennial report of
the state tax commission has shown
an increase of more than 900 per cent
in the assessed valuation of property
since J911. At that time the state
property was valued at $98,000,000,
according to the report prepared by
Mr. Zander, which has been presented
te Ge tereee
| Mr. Zander prefaced the commis-
sion’s biennial report with a sam-
mary of valuations of property at the
beginning of statehood, when the new
lax machinery was ereated, up to the
present time. A member of the fax
commission ginee statehood, the last
ftical act of Mr. Zander was to
prepare this report.
The relative positions of the differ-
ent classes of property have mate-
rially changed, as set forth by the
oe tax commission chairman in
‘he following table:
“This summary tells the Story @f
‘the! commission’s activities during the
nine years of its existence,” said Mr.
Zander in his report. “During all this
time the commission has had the
earnest and loyal support of all the
county assessors, without whose aid
these results would have been utterly
impossible. Further, it would be re-
miss to omit an acknowledgment of
the generous support given by the
county boards of supervisors. All
these officials, together with the tax
commissioners, have learned one won-
‘derful lesson—that of co-operation
and team. work.
“The splendid coordination of all
the parts of the tax machinery of the
state is due for the most part to-the
inquisitorial tax conference held every
year, full mention of which has been
‘made in all previous reports of this
‘commission. It is certainly not sur-
plusage to add again that the results
shown above could never haye been
Drought about without these get-to-
‘gether conferences, where ignorance,
‘prejudice and sectional differences
have been swept away and in their
pea there has annually broken a
light of clearer understanding and
‘broader vision in which nothing petty
EB sordid could flourish for long.”

WINSLOW
Winslow at last has a place in
which to worship. The Rev. Barkley of
the A. M. E. connection, organized a
chureh here on the 28th of February
and we are looking forward to a happy
and glorious year. Following are the
officers elected: Trustees; Messrs.
Simpson and Geo. Boatwright; Stew-
ards: Messrs Wilhite, Lyons and Hart-
man; Stewardesses: Mesdames Mc-
Cool, Simpson, Mullen, Lyons, Yeager,
Wilhite and Hartman.
“For as much as you did it unto one
of the least of these my brother, ye
have done it also to me.” These are
the words of our great teacher and
we are thankful to Mr. and Mrs, Wil-
hite, who showed that Christ-like
spirit by donating the lot to the church
‘Mr. and Mrs, Yeager also deserve
mention for they gave the tent. and
chairs.
Mesdames Lewis and Hays were on
the sick list, but are reported Con-
valescent.
Mesdames Simpson and Mullen made
a flying trip to Albuquerque last week.
Oh! How proud she is! Who? Why?
Mrs. McCool, of course. She is the
first one to take off a brood of little
young chickens. .
Mr. Yeager is building a new bunga-
low.
Rev. Barkley preached to us last
Sunday,
Mr. Boatwright will soon be ready
to supply the packing houses, for his
pigs are doing nicely.
IN LOVING MEMORY OF Mrs, ALICE
HENDERSON .
Once again we are reminded,
That each earthly flower must fade;
That our dearest friends and kindred
In the silent grave are laid. a
‘Tis a dear one who hath left us,
At the age of life so bright,
But the lord who hath bereft us,
Doeth all His works aright.
Lord Thy rod we feel most keenly,
Deeply do we mourn our loss;
Grant us grace and sweet submission
Cheerfully to bear the cross.
For we have:the consolation
That she dwells among the blest,
Where no sorrow or temptation
Can disturb her perfect rest.
Over are her toils and troubles,
Life with her has just begun,
Far beyond the tempter’s power,
Dwelling now beyond the sun.
Gates of pearl swung widely open,
Gentle voices whispering “Come!”
Joyfully she heard the summons
And triumpantly went home.
Far beyond the cloudless ether
She hath found eternal rest,
In the mansion of the blessed
On the gentle’ Savior's breast.
Farewell Alice, tut not forever,
Here no more thy face we'll see,
But the meeting will be glorious
In a glad eternity, e
