Perkins FACTS WORTH KNOWING "STOP AND START MEN" THE incompetent locomotive engineer is known on the railroad as a "stop and start" man. He can use the brake and the throttle, but he doesn't know how to take care of his engine. The "stop and start" man is never given a good locomotive or an important train. Life and property are too valuable to be entrusted to ignorance. To run a locomotive a man need not have a technical education or know how to build one. But he must have a good understanding of the principle of steam power, of the mechanism of the air brake. And he must, if he is worth his salt, know how to care for his engine so that while it is in his care it will be most efficient. Every human being lives and moves in a machine far more complicated than the most modern locomotive. And 99 out of 100 know no more about this machine than the "start and start" engineer knows about his locomotive. It is no wonder that so many human locomotives spend so much time in the hospital repairs shop, or break down and become worthless long before they should. How it is constructed, how it should be operated, what kind of food and how much of it is required for the best results—all these are profound mysteries, even to men who can conjugate Latin verbs or know the names of the Roman emperor in their order. It is a natural to desire lonelife. It is pleasant to look forward to a "Green old age." But these can be attained only by men who know enough about them bodily machinery to take care of it properly and to keep it up to the work it is called upon to do. It is not necessary or possible for everybody to study medicine. But every man can, with little trouble learn something more than how to start and stop his own machine. He can learn how to feed it, how to exercise it, how to tell when something is wrong, and when to call in the doctor who is the technical engineer of the human railroad. If all men would do that, there would not be as much work for the hospitals—which are the "shops" for human locomotives, and the doctors would find time to learn more about preventive medicine, which is the most important branch of medical science. The story of the system of farming out county prisoners in Florida does not make pretty reading. It is the old, old story of sentences for such trivial offences as stealing rations on freight trains being worked off by forced labor under contractors who buy conscript labor cheap and maintain discipline by whiping, sometime with six or seven pound stumps. The men are herded in camps recking with filth and disease, are sometimes forced to work for hour hip-bleep in swamps and have virtually no medical care. The shout receives a cash bonus for each man he is able to send the contractor. This is slavery, but Florida is not the only southern state where such conditions persist. The death of Martin Tubert, a North Dakota boy, at the formal proof of the state legislature to out of Florida has caught the county's attention—clearly because he is a white boy. Black men have gone to unrecorded death in the echange year after year for decades. A time of loooe evelt there shocking revelations of the horrors of promage in the lower South, and an outcrop of remedy. But a cedil has died. Two year ago when John Brown hourily manhandled slave men on his Gung a farm through the Federal slave station, it came a new outcrop of Governor Hale, a legislator full to the end in Fort Scott, the sustained nation we fell If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theire and blaming it on you "PO RO" Over three million pleased patrons endorse Poro Products More than seventy-five thousand agents Sell Poro Products.

An event extraordinary was given in Joplin, Mo., at the Red Cross Hall, when the Masone Ladies of the Heroine Court introduced the Fashion show, which is taking the day everywhere. The models were graceful and gowned so pleasingly that they mealted round after round of applause from the big audience that attende in spite of the undesirable weather conditions. Miss Jessie Martin displayed wonderful taste in her variety of dress and won the highest number of votes for queen of the Fashion Show. She was crowned at 12 p. m. and presented with a huge basket of John Taylor's best sweets. Miss Mary Ruth Wallace run well against Miss Jessie for highest honors. Miss Martin winning by only one vote. Little boys of 1840 received possibly the loudest amplitude when they are peared in flaved shirts as their only garments of dress.

The orchestra was grand refresh The people of Topeka who attend the Pa- topka High School Auditorium Apr. 20th were given a rare treat at a music line. Mrs. Paige is a high student, a sweet singer, one of the leading professionals. West, Mr. Giars was also at his best. The following is what the entitle of a Topeka Daily Capital had so about the contest. If I had a musical education pro- bably I would have been able to le- ave with out of the work of either Mrs. Emma Collins Paige con- tallio, or Clyde Leroy Giars, who appeared in recital at the high school luncheon evening. Hamily I had no such education and enjoyed time spent there, not having to work as a crilie would have done. It is a credil to the Negro race that the race not only can produce artists such as gave the recital here last night, but that the race could turn out such a crowd to hear such entertainment, classical tho the greater portion of the program was. Mrs. Payne has an easy stage appearance and sings with a full rich contralto voice. She shows more than average judgement in the selection of her numbers. All on the program last evening were well within her range and ability. There was no "jumping at notes" and she appeared to enjoy every moment as much as the audience. Mr. Glass, who, in addition to giving several groups of well selected piano numbers, accompanied Mrs. Payne, played with a technique and ease that make even the most classical music understandable to the unmusically educated. One of the best bits on the program last night may not have been accidental but it fitted in with the weather conditions and got real appreciation from the audience. In her second group of numbers Mrs. Payne firstsang "My, Lord, What a Morning," and followed it with "Oh, Dldn, It Rain." YALE NEWS Mrs. Spencer Maples Yates entertained a large number of friends at her home last week in honor of her husband's Mr. Spencer Maples' birthday. He was 69 years old.

Of course we could hardly keep from shedding a tear as they dismantled "Old Ten" and carted her off toot in some junk pile, 'way off unrung and after a little, unmourned. However that is almost ancient history now. Our new "C" is marching along so much stronger, so much easier, and faster that we have learned to love her too. The wide variety of type faces we are able to get, and best of all, the speed with which we are able to turn out work of the finest class, more than compensates us for the loss of "Old Ten." From all over the town they have come—from the State Printer, the Journal, Capital, Trade Unionist, Shawnee Chief—devotes all of the Linetype. We suspect to tell us: "I told you it was no good! I told Nick to stick to the Linetype." But when they left, they only shook our hand and said: "You have the best machine in town." Of course we know that we were getting "The Better Machine," but it does make a feel better to have our judgment confirmed by such a large array of typographic experts. Now we feel, too, that our readers will rejoice with a because we have now the best plant controlled and owned by Colored people in the side of Chicago. As a general rule Colored people generally know so little about business and business practices that it is really pitiful. Strange to say, the KAPPA ALPHA PSI PARTY SEASON'S CLIMAX There have been may pretty social events given during the past social season, many of them thought to be the last word in beauty as well joy but the party given by the local Chapter of the Kappa Alpha Psi, Saturday evening, May 19th, at the white Odd Fellows Hall, came as the climax to all of them. The decoration of the hall was unique as well as pretty. The music was the best that Topeka has heard for a long time. The crowd, and it was a crowd, was in a specially joyful mood. The floor was as perfect as could be. So all of the elements were there to make this the best party of them all. All of the Colored halls being engaged for the expiring, someone had no necessity to obtain this natural place and it was to this that the happas took them and they enclosed it too. That is to which only our people can do themselves so completely everywhere in existence. They come from everywhere it occurred in a few places, such as come up from Lawrence to stage in manhood, heard about this place in real joy, and could not resist the desire to see what it was like, and some of them stated it it was over. But, on lay, words are to limited talk about it no it is really But, oh my, words are not limited tell about it so it really Brother you should have been there. PHI BETA SIGMAS EN- TERTAIN IN MANHATTAN Manhattan, Kau, May 21.—Joy was king last Friday night when the members of the Pai Beta Sigma Piaternity staged their spring party here. The best hall in town was secured and it was decorated in the colors of the fraternity—purple and white. The music was the beat that money could bring to town—Duke's Orchestra. Mans out-of-town visitors were present at this, the best of the festivities of the year. They were Topekar Arthur Edwards, Glenn Mallory, C. Tyler, C. Odell, Mirese Madge Taylor, Bretta Porter, Marguerite Halloy; Emmaura; Miree Viola Nebb, Lire Steele Ruby Lucas, Ethal Woods L. Golie Pielidson; Lawrence; Miree Edna Over, Gavelle Morlton, Inez Anderson, Vola Cowford, Kansas City; Mirese Iya Robhillon, Noline Brown and Mr. Ell Logan. colin High School. She will end her to some college this winter, but she has not left which one. She is compulsive taking a trip to Tennessee, where she is a sister. Mr. a d Mrs. C. W. Cuther at 310 kentucky, own a fine home and also a roaming house where they are very crowded all the time. Mrs. Cuther was the leading singer in the Blind Boone Company and one of the fine- singers of that time. She is now singing those sweet songs to Mary Charlene, her two year old baby girl whom she and her husband are proud of. Mr. and Mrs. Robert McFadden are very pro-perous people, owning their own home. They have lived here for 23 years, coming from Clarksville, Tenn., lived in Texas and then came to Joplin, where they are prosperous and happy. He is engaged in the house and carpet cleaning business in which he is an expert. Mrs. M. J. Jones, the widow of the late Rev. Jones is still conducting a coal and wood yard and making a success of it. more education they are repuled to have, the less they seem to know of that which some of them even attempt to teach—business methods. We are often criticised by our teachers especially for allowing beauty advertisements to run in our papers. Anyone who is at all acquainted with successful business methods admires these women who have built up independent businesses for themselves by advertising their products. If all the Colored business men and women would follow these women's consistent example in the matter of advertising, it would not be long before the educated youth would have places in abundance in which to use a little of the now abstract knowledge he is acquiring. Another thing, those hair dressers and beauty specialists are paying for their publicity and making it possible for the Colored newspapers to continue to turn the light of publicity on things which vitally concern the race, and that is more than many of those who are always criticising Colored newspapers for running advertisements of hair preparations can say. We have leaders and leaders, some of whom are real, and some only counterfeits. Many times, though, the real leaders are not the ones we hear the most about, but are often happiest to remain in the background and he allowed to push others, especially the youth out into the forefront. Just such a man is Roger W. Campbell, Sr. He is a real leader; the president of the City B. Y. P. U., he makes it his business to encourage youth and to keep pushin the youth of the race forward. The world at large may not hear much of him as a "leader" but his work will always live in youth and youth glorified, for whom he has labored and pushed forward. The man who is doing things in Joplin is Mr. M. Lowe, who is a cabinet maker of the Christmason Dry Goods Store, where he has been employed for the past six years. He is an artist, among the finest in the trade, can take any fire piece piece of furniture and make it over or dress it up to suit the taste of the most fastidious. They have two children at Lincoln Institute who are doing fine in their studies. Rev. Holt is still pastoring and he still has charge of one of the public schools of the town. We've listed our old friends. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Oats. Mr. Oats is quite freeble.
