BISHOP H. B. PARKS INCURS DISPLEASURE OF CHURCH TRUSTEES
BISHOP H. B. PARKS INCURS DISPLEASURE OF CHURCH TRUSTEES
(Special to The Tribune)
Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 6—The trustees of Allen Chapel, James H. Crews, Edward Lewis, Elmer Dotson, Dr. T. C. Unthank, Chas. H. Calloway, Bruce Walker, W. M. Ballard and George Teeters, most of whom have been connected with the official life of the church for many years, have sent in their resignations.
The trustees were unanimous in their demand upon Bishop Parks for a change in the pastorship of Allen and to them the bishop had made a sacred vow that he would carry out their wishes. They claim that the bishop since making the promise has evaded meeting them and that he has treated them in such a contemptuous manner that they can no longer officially serve under him and retain their self respect. Many of them are most bitter in their condemnation of the bishop whom they say they can no longer respect as a man of truth and reliability.
They do not believe that it has been "physically impossible" as the bishop claims to find a successor for Rev. Isaacs but that the real difficulty has been that no church could be found willing to accept the rejected pastor of Allen and that the bishop prefers sacrificing the church rather than removing its incompetent pastor.
The trustees also feel that if the wisdom of Rev. Isaacs is to be the basis upon which the bishop is to rely for the welfare of the local church that the official staff should be chosen from the ranks of the pastor's loyal following rather than from those who have lost all confidence and esteem for him.
The class leaders feel about the same way, at least a majority of them and the next week will find many of the old leaders absent from their old places. The leaders say that Rev. Isaacs ignores their official positions. That he has several times intimated that they were dishonest and that he attempts to place upon them the responsibilily for parochial work which he himself should perform. They say that Rev. Isaacs should have a full sway, now that the bishop has set his stamp of approval upon him, and that they cannot conscientiously serve under him any longer. Practically all the ushers will also cease their services. These volunteer workers who in the past have rendered such valuable aid in the physical and social side of the services have been under the constant hectoring of the critical pastor. They say that they have several times been convened and "balled out" by Rev. Isaacs for shortcomings which he could not even make plain and that they are weary of his insolent domination.
Looking backward, what do you see that you have accomplished for good during the past 12 months?

No person is in a better position to know the attitude of the business concerns of a community than the one who solicits the advertisements and comes in personal contact with the heads of the business concern.
When the advertisement of a business firm is carried in the Tribune, it not only serves as an announcement of the special prices or the line of goods handled by that concern, but it is a Direct Invitation to members of the race to patronize the business place; further, it is assurance of fair and courteous treatment.

HAITIANS DESERVE THEIR INDEPENDENCE ACCORDING TO REPORT
(Associated Negro Press)
New York City, N. Y., Jan. 6.—A statement issued by the executive committee of the Hati-San Domingo Independence Society of which Moorfield Storey is chairman, characterized as a disgrace to the United States the preliminary report of the senatorial commission appointed to investigate conditions in Haiti and San Domingo. "Issued immediately following conference with Secretary Hughes, it justifies and makes a part of American public policy the overthrow by force of arms of small and weak peoples," said the statement. "It endorses the policy followed in Haiti of using violence to impose upon a free people a treaty which it would never have accepted of its own free will. "The commission has done irrevocable damage to the faith and good name of the United States, especially in Latin America, where our protections of benevolence are as nothing in the face of the acts and facts which are now part of public record. The United States should withdraw the marines from Haiti and restore Haitian independence at once."
NOTED PUGILIST SAM MCVEY PASSES AWAY IN NEW YORK
NOTED PUGILIST SAM MCVEY PASSES AWAY IN NEW YORK
(Associated Negro Press)
New York City, N. Y., Jan. 6.—Sam McVey, Negro heavyweight pugilist, died today in a local hospital, a victim of pneumonia. McVey, one of the most formidable of Negro heavyweights during his ring career, was born in California in 1885. Standing close to six feet in height and weighing 200 pounds, he possessed terrific punching power, more than the average boxing skill and ability to take heavy punishment without faltering. His first appearance as a serious heavyweight contender was in 1903, when he fought two twenty-round contests with Jack Johnson, losing both bouts on decisions.
His ring record is remarkable for the number of bouts with Sam Langford. During the decade beginning in 1911, McVey and Langford fought twenty contests, ranging from short no-decision bouts to twenty-round encounters. These were staged in all parts of the world from Australia to South America. Langford was the victor in a majority of the battles.
Recently McVey had appeared in the role of trainer and sparring partner for Negro and white heavyweights. Despite his 36 years he retained his boxing skill and hitting powers.

Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 6.—At a meeting of the directors of the Atlanta Savings Bank last Friday night, Bishop J. S. Flipper was elected president; B. J. Davis, vice president, and W. S. Cannon, third vice president of the institution. Bishop Flipper is head of the African Methodist church in Georgia.
OUR FLAG
(Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., Jan. 6.—Only on rare occasions does the president direct that the flag on the White House be lowered to half mast. It has been lowered in the case of the death of some foreign potentate or ruler of a foreign land or president of the United States. When Roosevelt died, the flag was at half staff for thirty days. This flag when raised over the executive mansion, denotes that the president is in Washington and it is never flown when the president is away from the capital.

INVISIBLE EMPIRE IN HANDS OF RECEIVER IF PLAN CARRIES
Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 6. — A petition asking receivers to take charge of the "invisible empire," Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, was filed in Fulton county superior court by Henry B. Terrell and 174 members of the Klan. The petition charged mismanagement of funds and affairs of the organization by imperial officers. It also alleges an attempt by imperial officers to banish from membership certain men who have joined an insurgent movement against the faction, now ruling the Klan's affairs. Judge John T. Pendleton signed an order setting January 28 for hearing on the petition and issued a temporary injunction restraining the imperial officers from using any of the Klan's money for any except ordinary expenses, and also restraining them from withdrawing any membership.
COLORED FARMERS IN MISSOURI OWN VALUABLE PROPERTY
(Associated Negro Press)
Jefferson City, Mo., Jan. 6.—Fifty per cent of Missouri Negro farmers own $16,542,607 worth of farm property, according to recent census statistics, sent to the Missouri Negro Industrial Commission office. Of the 178,000 Negroes in Missouri, only about 40,000 live in rural districts. The farmers have a Negro Farmers' Bureau with about 2,000 members, Floyd Winn of Dalton, being recently elected chairman. Through the University of Missouri, the Negroes of the state are given one farm agent and one household economics specialist. Mr. J. W. Butler of Dalton, is the farm agent, and Mrs. H. K. Patrick Williams of Maysvilleis, the economics specialist. It is highly desirable that other government funds may be available soon so that the hundreds of Negroes in the extreme southeastern section of the state may have the advantage of the agricultural extension work.

DR. PIERRE LANDRY OF NEW ORLEANS, LA. PASSED TO HIS REWARD
Following is an article which appeared in the New Orleans Times Picayune, giving account of the death of Dr. Pierre Landry, one of the most prominent colored men in Louisiana. Dr Landry is the father of Prof. Landry, of this city. Prof Landry is principal of the Douglas grammar school. The article follows:
Reverend Pierre Landry, retired Negro minister and a leader of his race and church, died Friday at the home of his daughter, 700 Slidell avenue, Algiers. His funeral will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday at the Progressive Baptist church, Robertson and Clio streets. Rev. J. L. Burrell, pastor of the church, will officiate. The funeral will be in charge of the Negro Masonic lodge, of which Reverend Landry was a member. Burial will be in Carrollton cemetery.
Reverend Landry was born in Ascension parish in 1841 and was self-educated. During the carpetbag regime, he was mayor of Donaldsonville, a magistrate and a state senator. He was minister of the Methodist Episcopal for fifty years but a few years ago became a member of the Missionary Baptist Church. He was a member of the governing boards of the New Orleans University, Flint Medical College and Gilbert's Seminary. He is believed to have preached to more people of his race than any other man in the state.
In recent years, he was connected with the City Board of Health, performing marriage ceremonies for members of his race.
He was married twice and was the father of fourteen children.
Several white citizens will speak at his funeral, including W. L. Bentley and former Governor Warmoth, Reverend John Marks and Dr. J. P. Newman will also speak. Active pallbearers will be William Turner, Robert Washington, John Joseph, T. W. Williams, Reverend G. Rounds and Reverend A. Lewis.

Chicago, Ill., Jan. 6—"If the colored people of the world would unite their money like the Jews, we would get somewhere," declared a prominent citizen here.
In celebration of one of the most successful drives for relief for war sufferers ever conducted 600 Chicago Jews assembled at the Congress hotel and heard that the original quota in their drive had been exceeded by almost $500,000. The total amount contributed was $1,810,000.
A second record was established, Jacob M. Loeb, general chairman of the Chicago committee, announced, in that 3,000 more persons contributed to the fund this year than on previous drives. The largest contribution to the drive was that of Julius Rosenwald, who pledged to give $1 for every $7 given by others. His share will exceed $226,000, it is said.
Mr. Rosenwald is a very large contributor to Negro philanthropies.

EDITH MCCORMICK IS INTERESTED IN NEGRO GRAND OPERA
(Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 6.-Mrs. Edith Rockefereller McCormick obtained a divorce from Harold F. McCormick, head of the International Harvester Company, an hour after filing suit in the superior court today. She charged her husband with desertion and he made formal admission.
Arrangements had been made so well that Mrs. McCormick had finished testifying before Judge Charles A. McDonald and was out of the county building before the clerk down stairs had completed his file of the suit.
For some time Mrs. McCormick has been a resident of Switzerland. On her return to the United States some months ago she startled her friends by the publication of an interview in which she declared that she has become a student of synthetic psychology.
"I am a psychologist, and that contemplates freedom of action," she said. "I am very human and think it a beautiful idea if two persons enjoy each other's society, and if one can help the other, they should be permitted to do so."
Recently upon special recommendation of the Associated Negro Press Mrs. McCormick has manifested a personal interest in Negro Grand Opera, and the productions of Prof. Harry Lawrence Freeman, of New York City. Prof. Freeman has composed nine operas, and will begin the production of them in New York City, shortly after the first of the year. The McCormicks have been the backers of grand opera in Chicago for years, and in a personal letter to the Associated Negro Press, Mrs. McCormick expressed a desire to hear the score of "The Martyr," says that "We are looking for new material."

We want the world to know that Douglas, Arizona, is still on the map and is one of the best cities in the state for a person to live. Best water, best climate and some of the best people in the southwest are right here in Douglas. Everybody is doing something in Douglas and we see good times coming again.
The churches are all holding services as usual. Rev. J. R. Rector is holding the fort at the C. M. E. church and has a strong membership. His members are noted for their loyalty. On December 23, a Christmas train ran to the home of Dr. and Mrs. Rector and it was loaded down with good things for the table. The train also brought some presents for the Rev. Edward Jones. It was a pleasant surprise.
On Saturday night all went to the
SHLEY AND LOGICAL MAN FOR FEDERAL JUDGE IN ARIZONA
Since the passage of the Walsh bill providing for the appointment of 22 additional federal judges, one of whom shall be assigned to Arizona, Attorney General Daugherty has stated that he would recommend the appointment of United States attorneys in districts where they have made good, in which event County Attorney R. E. L. Sheppard may be in line for the federal bench, as he has made good in his official capacity as county attorney. However, Judge Sheppard is said to have decided to become an active candidate for the appointment as additional United States district judge for Arizona. This was indicated by his friends during the past week, some of whom are ready to circulate petitions addressed to President Harding and Attorney General Daugherty asking the appointment of Judge R. E. L. Sheppard, and whereas Attorney General Daugherty has said that he would favor the appointment of "ambitious and successful district attorneys" for the appointment to the federal court bench and wherein Arizona has no republican United States district attorney, to apply for this promotion, we are of the opinion that County Attorney R. E. L. Sheppard will meet all the requirements mentioned by Attorney General Daugherty for the additional United States federal judge for the state of Arizona.

Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 6.—The national Greek letter fraternity of Kappa Psi held its 11th annual grand chapter here from December 27th to 30th inclusive. The meeting afforded an excellent opportunity to observe the types of educated, useful and intelligent manhood which American universities are making of our Negro youth. Delegates from all parts of the United States attended, representing all the leading institutions of learning as well as the larger world of professional and business activity. One of the features of the meeting was the awarding of the fraternity medals of honor for long and proficient service to the organization. The medals this year were conferred upon E. W. Diggs and Irven Armstrong by Professor Meyweeks. In addition to this recognition of intrafraternity service a diamond studded laurel wreath was awarded to the member who has achieved the most distinction, during the year for meritorious service to the race in general.

Splendid services were held at Mt. Olive Baptist church on Christmas day. The morning was given over to testimonies and in the evening the Rev. Edward Jones preached a powerful sermon and all were made glad.
We regret very much that on account of ill health the pastor of the A. M. E. church was forced to leave this charge. He left last Thursday for his home in Missouri and was accompanied by the presiding elder, Rev. T. L. Watson. We wish for him a speedy recovery.

EUGENE DEBS WILL WORK FOR RELEASE OF OTHER PRISONERS
(Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., Jan. 6—The release of Eugene V. Debs, several times a candidate for president on the socialist ticket, has produced a new angle in nation politics at this time. Debs has been fearless in his denunciation of American racial prejudice, and has won the silent, as well as active admiration of thousands of Negroes throughout the United States. It is altogether likely that in a short time the veteran agitator will "turn loose a barrel full," on Negrophobia. Politically, leaders are frankly alarmed at the situation, and are "sitting tight," wondering what may happen. When the prison doors closed on Debs at Atlanta, the socialist leader wept—deeply touched by the scene he had just left. A most remarkable demonstration had attended his departure from prison.
All institutions in the prison had been suspended in his honor and the 2,300 inmates were permitted to give him a rousing "sendoff." As he walked to the warden's office to receive his final release cheers from 2,300 throats echoed through the great stone building.
They stood at the windows and cheered again as he entered the warden's automobile and rode out of the prison into freedom.
Early in the morning he had said farewell to most of them individually. They embraced the "best loved prisoner" as Debs was known in the Atlanta institution, and wept as he parted from them. One youth swooned in his arms.
The last farewell was said to Sam Moore, Negro, who has been an inmate of the prison for thirty years, sent there from Washington for a murder committed while he was a boy.
In the prison Debs was known as the "guardian of the Negro inmates." He and Moore had struck up a close friendship during the three years of his confinement. Debs kissed the black man as they parted and both broke down.
"Sam Moore deserves to be out more than I do," said Debs later. "I had a chance when I was young, he never had."
One young Negro timidly made a last request of the socialist leader.
"Brother Debs I want you to write a love poem for me so's I can send it to my best gal," said he.
"And you bet I'm going to do it as soon as I get back home," Debs announced. "Never wrote a love poem, but I shall do my best."
things around on his ranch. Everything is being fenced in and a poultry farm is being started. Vegetables of all kinds also will be planted this year and he plans to do truck gardening on an extensive scale. Anyone wishing an ideal place to live the year round, winter and summer, come to Douglas, Arizona.

7 NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC
An erroneous reflection upon the character, standing or reputation of any
person, firm or corporation which may appear in the columnr of THE
TRIBUNE will be gladly corrected upon its being brought to the attention o¢
the publishers.
What children need most is what we all need—love. They
need it cradled and sung into them before the dawn of thought.
They need it, as if it were the great, heavy foundation sills to
their career.
A child that can look back and see his earliest recollections
steeped in mother love has a decided advantage over the child
who has no such memories. For he knows, in spite of all the
disillusion and’ betrayals dnd bitterness of later years, that
there is such a thing as absolutely pure and unselfish affection.
Cynics may sneer and pessimists may pooh-pooh, but he has
his little secret, and when he is tempted to say ali men are liars
and all women deceive and there is no one to be trusted, he finds
he cannot say it, for there is one who, he knows, would have
given her life for him, one who did give him the opulence of her
unfailing service. The man who has a good mother can never
wholly lose faith.
He can never be utterly bad and hard, for the memory of his
mother’s face and voice is forever a live spot of tenderness.
A man may play the fool for years, and make ducks and
drakes of the ten commandments; but if he has been weil
mothered he has a tow-line that will pull him back some time
to decency. A good mother is better than all the policemen in
the state. When the girl is tempted to folly she can elude the
most watchful chaperon and dodge the cleverest detective, but
she finds it hard to escape from the guardian ghost of her
mother’s trust.
When a boy is at a crisis, and the fires of manhood begin to
flame, and the complicate torments of adventure and shyness
drive to strange and awkward offense, there is no refuge like
mother’s arms, no cure like mother’s understanding.
The most desolate of words is—MOTHERLESS. For only
those who have never known a mother or who have known and
Jost can appreciate what it means.
There are bad mothers, we suppose, women who are devoid
of natural feeling toward the children they have born, just as
tradition says that there are fallen angles; but we have never
seen one.
Mothering is even older than the human race. It goes back
in the great fog of evolution to the beginning of life, to the
lioness and the she-bear, to alf animals. For the foundation of
this all-important instinet was made thousands of years before
man appeared among the creatures. Whatever Deity prescribed
the struggle for existence, He kindly mitigated it with mother-
hood.
Perhaps that is why mother-love is the fiercest, sweetest
and stubbornest of all the emotions. ‘
Newfangled scientists may tell us that, mothers do not
know how to train children, and that it would be better to put
the little ones into the hands of experts. But the time will never
come when any educator, nurse or governess, any institution,
school or scheme, can take the place of the child's own Mother,
of ae whisperings at twilight and the laughter at dawn that are
a child’s best heritage. a“
For there are more things to be learned in this world than
manners and arithmetic; the very deepest and most underlying
truths of existence are those a mother only can give. The most
wonderful confessional box is a mother's breast. :
There's a little crypt under the altar in every man’s heart,
where only Mother enters, for she alone has the key.
There are all sorts of wants in thé want ad column of the
newspapers, cooks wanted, chauffeurs wanted, cletks wanted,
agents wanted and teachers wanted, but the commonest and
most crying want of all never gets into print,
“T-want-my-Mother.” Roe
Thomas A. Edison announces startling discoveries in the
transportation of metals. A Frenchman in London claims to
haye discovered a process for turning mercury into gold and
radium, and samples submitted to chemists seem to prove this
claim, Supposing the statements of the Frenchman to be bona
fide, gold will be cheaper than roubles in Russia. Mercury costs
70 cents a pound and gold is worth $25 an ounce. -If the above
statements are true America will not always be the richest
country in the world. Her gold will be cheapened, and not only
America but the world will experience a financial panic such es
was never known before; for the monetary basis of the world’s
medium of exchange is gold. Gold is the standard of values’ the
world over, and supposing the $3,500,000,000 of gold now in the
United States should depreciate to the level of copper, for reason
of its abundance, there would be need of adopting another stand-
ard of values, and in the transition there would be such a
tumbling of credits, such a crash in finaticial ¢iréles, that all
business would be nothing in comparison to what would hap-
pen; for a depreciated money standard means trouble for what-
ever nation that is so unfortunate as to trifle with its finances,
and were the international standard demonetized, because of the
abundance of gold, there would be more financial wieckage than
the world has ever known in its etitire history. a i

worth a dollar or not. The potato erop might fail, the apple
rot, the grain spoil or the crops fail. Some have advanced the
idea that the real estate value of a nation should be adopted as
a basis of its money, and various schemes have been put for-
ward for the issuing of a paper currency backed by the natural
resources of a nation; just as a town or city bond is backed
by the property of the citizens, any one or all of whom are liable
to have their property seized if the town or city fails to meet
its obligation. Gold is a rare metal. There are other metals
now known that are more valuable than gold; but such was
not the case in ancient times, and gold became the standard of
values thousands of years ago, and has continued to be recoy-
nized as such to the present day. For thousands of years silver
was so rare that it was also used as a basis of money stand-
ards; but its abundance has caused it to be abandoned, and the
world now measures its values upon the stngle standard, except
in some countries that have not yet abandoned the old method
of financiering. Whether or not the Frenchman or Mr Edison
have discovered what alchemists sought for in vain for hun-
dreds of years the probability is that their discoveries will not
create any great disturbance in the money market for some
time to come; and it is quite probable that even if they have the
process will be far too expensive to create any disturbance for
years to come; so do not exchange your gold for Russian
roubles or German marks until future developments warrant the
act.

THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING
The Green Pea Pirates
"I'll think it over, Mac, an' let you know," Hicks replied evasively. Mr. McGuffey, sensing his defeat, retired forthwith to hide his embarrassment and distress; as the door closed behind him, Hicks and Flanerty faced each other. "Jack," quoth Dan Hicks, "can two towboat men, holdin' down two hundred-dollar jobs an' presumed to have been out of their swaddlin' clothes for at least thirty years, afford to be laughed off the San Francisco waterfront."
"I know one of them that can't, Dan. At the same time, can a rat like Phineas P. Scraggs and a beachbomer like his mate Gibney make a pair of star-spangled monkeys out of said two towboat men and get away with it?"
"They did that last night. Still, I've known monkeys that would fight an' was human enough to settle a grudge. Follow me, Jack."
Together they repaired to Jackson street bulkhead. Sure enough, there lay the Maggle, rubbing her biltered sides against the bulkhead. Captain Scraggs was nowhere in-sight, but Mr. Gibney was at the winch, swinging ashore the crates of vegetables which The Squarehead and three longshoremen loaded into the cargo net.
"We're outnumbered," Jack Flaherty whispered. "Let's wait until she's unloaded an' Gibney an' Scraggs are aboard alone."
They retired without having attracted the attention of Mr. Gibney.
Promptly at twelve o'clock the longshoremen knocked off work for the lunch hour and Nells Halvorsen drifted across the street to cool his parched throat with steam beer. While waiting for Scraggs to come up out of the engine room, and take him to luncheon, Mr. Gilbney sauntered aft and was standing gazing reflectively upon a spot on the Maggie's stern where the hawkers had chafed away the paint, when suddenly his forebodings of evil returned to him a thousand fold stronger than they had been since Scraggs' return to the little ship. He glanced up and beheld gazing down upon him Captains Jack Flaherty and Daniel Hicks. Battle was imminent and the vallant Gilbney knew it; wherefore he determined instantly to meet it like a man.
"Howdy, men," he saluted them,
"Glad to have you aboard the yacht,
and he stepped backward to give himself fighting room.
"Here's where we collect the towage bill on the S. S. Yankee Prince," Dan Hicks informed him, and leaped from the bulkhead straight down at Mr. Gibney. Jack Flaherty followed.
Mr. Gibney welcomed Captain Hicks with a terrific right swing, which missed; before he could guard, Dan Hicks had planted left and right where they would do the most good and Mr. Gibney went into a clinch to save himself further punishment.
"Scraggsy," he bawled, "Scragg-
THE BOXING
"Scraggysy," He Bawled, "Scraggyy-y-yl
Help! Murder! It's Hicks and Fla-
herty! Bring an Ax!"
"Scraggsy," He Bawled, "Scraggsy-y-yl
Help! Murder! It's Hicks and Flah
hertyl Bring an Ax!"
sy-y-y! Help! Murder! It's Hicks
and Flahherty! Bring an ax!"
He flung Dan Hicks at Jack Flaherty; as they collided he rushed in and dealt each of them a powerful poke. However, Messrs. Hicks and Flaherty were sizeable persons and while, individually, they were no match for the tremendous Gibney, nevertheless what they lacked in horsepower they made up in pugnacity—and the salt sea seldom breeds a craven. Captain Scraggs thrust a frightened face up through the engine-room hatch, but at sight of the battle royal taking place on the deck aff, his blood turned to water and he thought only of escape. To climb up to the bulkhead without being seen was impossible, however, so, not knowing what else to do, he stood on the iron ladder and gazed, pop-eyed with horror, at the unequal contest.
Backward and forward the tide of battle surged. For nearly three minutes all Scraggs saw was an indistinct tangle of legs and arms; then suddenly the combatants disengaged themselves and Scraggs beheld Mr. Gibney prone upon the deck with a gory face upturned to the foggy skies. When he essayed to rise and continue the contest, Flaherty kicked him in the ribs and Hicks cursed him; so Mr. Gibney, realizing that all was over, beat the deck with his hand in token of surrender. Hicks and Flaherty waited until the fallen gladiator had recovered sufficient breath to
sit up; then they pounced upon him, lifted him to the rail, and dropped him overboard. Captain Scraggs shrieked in protest at this added touch of barbarity, and Dan Hicks, turning, beheld Scraggsy's white face at the hatch.
"You're next, Scraggs," he called cheerfully, and turned to peer over the rail. Mr. Gibney had emerged on the surface and was swimming slowly away toward an adjacent float where small boats landed. He climbed wearily up on the float and sat there, gazing across at Hicks and Flaherty without animus, for to his way of thinking he had gotten off lightly, considering the enormity of his offense. The least he had anticipated was three months in hospital, and so grateful was he to Hicks and Flaherty for their forbearance that he strangled a resolve to "lay" for Hicks and Flaherty and thrash them individually—something he was fully able to do—and forgot his aches and pains in a lively interest as to the fate of Captain Scraggs at the hands of the towboat men. He was aware that Captain Scraggs had failed ignominiously to rally to the Gibney appeal to repel boarders, and in his own expressive terminology he hoped that what the enemy would do to the dastard would be "a-plenty."
The enemy, meanwhile, had turned their attention upon Scraggs, who had dodged below like a frightened rabbit and sought shelter in the shaft alley. He had sufficient presence of mind, as he dashed through the engine room, to snatch a large monkey wrench off the tool rack on the wall, and, kneeling just inside the alley entrance he turned at bay and threatened the invaders with his weapon. Thereupon Hicks and Flaherty pelted him with lumps of coal, but the sole result of this assault was to force Scraggs further back into the shaft alley and out of range.
the towbott men held a council of war and decided to drown Scraggs out. Dan Hicks ran up on deck and returned dragging the deck fire hose behind him. He thrust the brass nozzle into the shaft-alley entrance and invited Scraggs to surrender unconditionally or be drowned like a kitten. Scraggs, knowing his own fire hose, defied them, so Dan Hicks started the pump while Flaherty turned on the water. Instantly the hose burst up on deck and Scraggs' jeers of triumph filled the engine room. The enemy was about to draw lots to see which one of the two should crawl into the shaft alley and throw a cupful of chloride of lime (for they found a can of this in the engine room) in Captain Scraggs' face, when a shadow darkened the hatch and Mr. Bartholomew McGuffey demanded belligerently: "What's goin' on down there? Who the devil's takin' liberties in my engine room?"
Dan Hicks explained the situation and the just cause for drastic action which they held against the fugitive in the shaft alley. Mr. McGuffey considered a few moments and made his decision.
"If what you say is true—an" I ain't in position to dispute you, not havin' been present when you hauled the Maggie off the beach, I don't blame you for feeling sore. What I do blame you for, though, is carryin' the war aboard the Maggie. If you wanted to whale Gib an' Scraggy you should ha' laid for 'em on the dock. Under the circumstances, you make this a personal affair, an' as a member o' the crew o' the Maggie I got to take a hand an' defend my skipper again you two. Fact is, gentlemen, I got a date to lick him first for what he done to me last night. Howsumever, that's a private grouch. The fact remains that you two jumped my pal Bert Gibney an' licked him somethin' scandalous. Hicks, I'll take you on first. Come up out of there, you swab, and fight. Flaherty, you stay below until I send for you; if you try to climb up an' horn in on my fight with Hicks, Gibney'll brain you."
A faint cheer came from the shaft alley. "Good old Mac. At-a-boy!" "You're on, McGuffey. Nobody ever had to beg me to fight him," Dan Hicks replied cordially, and climbed to the deck. To his great surprise, Mr. McGuffey winked at him and drew him off to the stern of the Maggie.
"There'll be no fight," he declared, "although we'll thud around on deck an' yell a couple o' times to make Scraggs think we're goin' to it. He figgers that by the time I've fought you an' Flaherty I won't be fit for combat with him, even if I lick you both; he's got it all figgered out that I'll wait a couple o' days before tacklin' him, an' he thinks my temper' cool by that time an' he can argue me out o' my revenge. Savey?"
"I twig."
Mr. Gibney had returned to the Maggie by this time and he now took his station at the engine-room hatch and growled at Flaherty and abused him. "Keep up your courage, Scraggy," he called, as Hicks and McGuffey pranced around the deck in simulated combat. "Mac's whalin' the whey out o' Hicks an' Hicks couldn't touch him with a buggy whip."
At the conclusion of the three minutes of horse-play, Mr. McGuffey came to the hatch again. "Up with you, Flaherty," he called loud enough for Captain Scraggs to hear, "up with you before I go down after you."
Flaherty was about to possess himself of a hatchet when the face of his confrepe, Dan Hicks, appeared over McGuffey's shoulder and grinned knowingly at him. Immediately, Flaherty hurled defiance at his enemies and came up on deck, and once more to Captain Scraggs came the dull sounds of apparent conflict overhead.
Suddenly a cheer broke from Mr
Glbney. "All off an' gone to Cooper
town, Scraggsy," he shouted. "Come up an' look a look at the fallen."
Out of the shaft alley came Scraggs with a rush, tossing his wrench aside the better to climb the ladder. He was half way up when Mr. Gibney reached down a great hand, grasped him by the collar, and whisked him out on deck with a single jerk. Here, to his horror, he found himself confronted by a singularly scathenth trio who grinned trumphantly at him.
"Seein' is bellevin," Scraggs, Dan Hicks informed him. "That's a lesson you taught me an' Flaherty last night, but evidently you don't profit by experience. You're too miserable to beat up, but just to show you it ain't possible for a dirty bay pirate like you to skin the likes o' me an' Flaherty we purpose hangin' the seat o' your pants up around your coat collar."
WHERE TIME GOES
People are always complaining about the length of time that they work as though there was nothing in life, but work.
A person at 70 has slept 23 years; worked 19 years, given 9 years to amusement, to eating 6 years, to traveling 6 years, to illness 4 years, to dressing 2 years and to religious devotion 1 year. These figures are course, approximately correct, providing the work item is not carried home in the form of worry to cheat the sleep item and the amusement item.
The work item will not be so oppressive if we take the attitude that day by day, hour by hour, and moment by moment, to grow stronger healthier, happier and younger.
We used to hear something about England "muddling through" the war, but when it comes to mudding through the peace we have the world skinned.
Nobody wants retrenching at the expense of the boys who did the trenching.
If Lenine has gone crazy, the mystery is how they found it out.
She—Why do they put corn meal on the dance floor?
He—To make the chickens feel at home.
With a quick twist, Mr. Gibney presented Captain Scraggs for his pence; Flaherty and McGuffey followed Dan Hicks promptly and Captain Scraggs screamed at every kick. And now came Mr. Gibney's turn. "For fallin' to stand up like a man, Scraggsy, an' battle Hicks an' Flaherty," he informed the culprit, and tossed him over to McGuffey to be held in position for him.
"Don't, Gib. Please don't," Scraggs walled. "It 'ain't comin' to me from you. I never heard you callin' a-tall. Honest, I never, Gib. Have mercy, Adelbert. You saved the Maggie last night an', a quarter interest in her is yours—if you don't kick me!"
Mr. Gibney paused, foot in midair; surveyed the Maggie from stem to stern, hesitated, licked his lower lip, and glanced at the common enemy. For an instant it came into his mind to call upon the valiant and able McGuffey to support him in a fierce counter-attack upon Hicks and Flaherty. Only for an instant, however; then his sense of fair play conquered.
"No, Scraggysy," he replied sadly. "She aln't worth it, an' your duplicity can't be overlooked. If there's anything I hate its duplicity. Here goes, Scraggysy—and get yourself a new navigatin' officer."
Scraggys twisted and flinched instantly, and Mr. Gibney's great boot missed the mark. "Ah," he breathed, "I'll give you an extra for that."
"Don't! Please, don't," Scraggys howled. "Lay off'n me an' I'll put in a new boiler an' have the compass adfusted."
The words were no sooner out of his mouth than Mr. McGuffey swung him clear of Mr. Gibney's wrath. "Swear it," he hissed. "Rais your right hand an' swear it—an' I'll protect you from Gib." Captain Scraggs raised a trembling right hand and swore it. "Till get a new fire hose an' fire buckets; I'll fix
THE FIGHT
"If Fix the Ash Hoist and Run the Bedbugs and Cookroaches Out of Her."
"If Fix the Ash Hoist and Run the Bedbugs and Cookroaches Out of Her."
"You hear that, Gib?" McGuffey pleaded. "Have a heart."
"Not unless he gives her a coat of paint an' quits bickerin' about the overtime, Bart."
"I promise," Scraggs answered him. "Pervided," he added, "you an' dear ol' Mac promises to stick by the ship."
"It's a whack," yelled McGuffey joyfully, and whirling, struck Dan Hicks a mighty blow on the jaw. "Off our ship, you hoodlums." He favored Jack Flaherty with a hearty thump and swung again on Dan Hicks. "At 'em, Scraggsy. Here's where you prove to Gib whether you're a man—thump—or a mouse—thump—or a thump, thump—bobtalled—thump—rat."
Dan Hicks had been upset, and as he sprawled on his back on deck, he appeared to Captain Scraggs to offer at least an even chance for victory. So Scraggs, mustering his courage, flew at poor Hicks tooth and toenail. His best was not much but it served to keep Dan Hicks off Mr. McGuffey while the latter was disposing of Jack Flaherty, which he did, via the rail, as the towboat men had disposed of Mr. Gibney. Dan Hicks followed Flaherty, and the crew of the Maggie crowded the rail as the enemy swam to the float, crawled on it and departed, vowing vengeance.
"All's well that ends well, gentlemen," Mr. McGuffey announced. "Scraggsy's goin' to buy a drink an' the past is buried an' forgotten.
Didn't old Scraggy put on a fight GIRL?

IN MEMORIAM
In Loving Memory of Mother
FRANCIS VAN-DYKE
Who Departed This Life Jan. 10, 192
Who Departed This Life Jan. 10, 1921
Mother has gone, God called her name
one year ago.
Redeemed from suffering and pain,
her soul rejoiced to go.
Seventy years of sorrow, joys and
woe.
From earthly cares, of labor ended,
to her heavenly home above.
'Tis true that we miss thee from thine
accustomed place.
I look in vain, day after day, to see
thy loving face.
She labored in his vineyard long, her
faith her only wealth.
Many they are whom she sustained in
sickness and in health.
Oh! glorious faith, that cheered her heart, when she said Oh, Lord let thy will be done.
And taken the sting from Satan's dart.
God sends us sorrow, we know he sends in love,
To lift our hearts from earth unto His heaven above.
Many a day I've sat in sorrow, thinking of my heavy care.
Looking to Jesus for that comfort which makes the heart grow light.
Dear mother, your sufferings are over,
You have knocked and have entered at heaven's door.
The Savour is shielding you with both of his arms,
And you are resting with him ever more.
I have traveled with you many miles to rest you beside your companion.
Who traveled through life's journey with you for forty-seven years.
A loving wife, devoted mother, cherishing us all through life.
Seven are rejoicing with you, six are left to mourn.
The friends who mourned with us and looked upon your bier,
Spoke of a christian and a life well spent in the silence of my chamber
