Mr. and Mrs. Ulysses G. Powell quietly observed the twenty-fifth anniversary of their marriage, at their home, 1 Cedar street, Everett, Massachusetts, on Saturday, October 18.
A SHOCKING TRAGEDY.
Ernest Fletcher, colored, who resided at 417 N-First street and W. H. O'Dell, white, were shot Friday afternoon, October 17, 1924 on the premises of Joseph Richardson near Soloman's Store, which is adjacent to this city on the Brook Road. Fletcher was killed, but the white man was only wounded and is said to be improving. Richardson is reported to have said that the men got to fighting over "bootleg" whiskey and shot each other, but Sheriff Seay of Henrico county, announces that Richardson admitted that he shot both of the men, because they robbed him of $100.
Joseph Richardson is a well-known character. He was usually found as a gate-keeper during the baseball series and for many years occupied a little house in the alley leading from First street towards Second street. He was miserly in his habits and is reported to have carried the bulk of his money on his person. He is a man of strong likes and dislikes. He recently remarried Hattie Giles, from whom he had obtained a divorce and the day before the tragedy had appeared in the Law and Equity Court, with Attorney J. E. Byrd as his attorney in an action to secure another divorce.
However, his wife has forgiven him and has been attentive to him in his trouble and it is reported that the legal phase of this case will be ended by him.
The funeral of Mr. E. D. Nelson who departed this life Saturday evening, at 5:45 o'clock took place last Wednesday from the First Baptist Church, at 2:30 o'clock. Rev. W. L, Ransome officiated in his usual dignified but sympathetic manner. The church was well filled with
friends of the family to pay the last tribute of respect to the deceased. Mr. Nelson had won many friends while here and was liked by all who knew him. He had been ailing for many months, but he bore his sickness with Christian patience and foritude. Resolutions were read from various organizations and the floral tributes were many and costly. The interment was made in the family platin in Maury's Cemetery. "Peace to his ashes, rest for his soul."
ROLAND HAVES CHARMS LARGE
RICHMOND AUDIENCE.
For an hour and a half, one lone tenor singer and an accomplished piano player entertained an audience at the City Auditorium here, Thursday evening, October 16, 1924, with but slight intermissions, amidst an applause which was practically an ovation from both white and colored patrons. No such happening, so far as known here has taken place during this generation. The central figure was the celebrated tenor, Roland Hayes, and his accompanist, William Lawrence.
He first rendered with practical perfection, from a human viewpoint; selections from such musical masters as Handel, Galuppi, Schubert, Franz Griffes, Whepleley, Rachmaninoff and then he sang Negro spirals with a rhythmic melody that practically "lifted the audience off their foot." Avery Robinson, Lawrence Brown and H P. Burleigh furnished the selections, which also charmed and delighted the vast concourse that had come to listen to him.
As a tenor singer, Roland Hayes is at the top most round of the ladder and unless he returns here to sing, his many admirers never expect to hear his like again.

1—KLAN MEETS ITS MATCH.
3—WILLIAM WHITE—BOXING
KLAN MEETS ITS MACTH
Closely following a statement made by Major William F. Deegan, Acting Chairman of the Hospitalization Committee of the American Legion, which he said: "I do believe religious and racial prejudices have existed in the bureau and in Government hospitals for disabled veterans. Some cases have been brought to my personal attention, but I was not aware of the report that the klan was behind all this. If it is, we ought to know it, and if it is not then that ought to be known, too;" a veritable lion by the title and name of Archbishop Curley, of the Holy Roman Catholic Church, has come forth and is stalking all over the area of American opinion. The episode is the outgrowth of an allegation of various disabled veterans, en masse and singly, that religious and racial discriminations have been practiced against them during their rehabilitation internment in the New York District.
Says the Catholic prelate, in a flow of logic and protest: "Religious discrimination is there organized and rampant and the Catholic victims of it are increasing in numbers daily. I protest against it whether its victims be Catholics, Jews or Protestants, because it is unjust, un-American and radically opposed to the very principles that have made our republic great and respected."
The protestation of the dignitary of the High Catholic Church has caused disquietude to pervade the ranks of not a few leading American citizens, and a review of Major Deegan's opinion by persons clothed with official authority is about to take place. The voice of the Catholic Church is one which is easily audible around the world, and if it should be proven that the klan is the proximate cause of ill treatment to disabled veterans—disabled Catholic veterans—then we know that the knights of the hooded order have at last met their match.
There's solace for us, however, in the Archbishop's protest, for we can at least touch the hem of his garment to the tune of thousands and thousands of communicants. And in so doing we shall have doubled the curative powers of the Archbishop's warning to the klan, in that we add the racial element, highly colored, to the content of the sick bed. A fine lesson this should be to us, but, alas, too frequently do ours of cleavage falter and break, when harnessed to social patriotism. We'll know better some day; but in the meantime there's a double-barreled dose for discrimination,—Colored Catholicism. Let's use it, and await results.

"WHITE SUPREMACY" TAKES PUNISHMENT.
"White Supremacy", the idol and pet of theorizing Anglo-Saxons and Nordics, has been absorbing some heavy punishment during the past year. A tarring and feathering party in Maryland, the indicted principals in which are being found guilty with uninterrupted regularity by a circuit jury; several gigantic conspiracies in the Middle West, the participants in which are now on their way to bed and board under the supervision of penitentiary officials; extreme high financing in Wall Street; and countless minor offenses in which "White Supremacy" was the order of the day, have given quite a conspicuous black-eye to the supremacy test of color.
And now comes Prof. Franz Boas, of Columbia University, New York, probably the most famous ethnologist in the world, and says that no one but a numskull would assert that color and skull bumps are any indication of intelligence, at least in human beings. Dr. Boas says that there is no difference, aside from skin tints, between the Anglo-Saxons and the Africans.
All of which leads us to a prior conclusion that the racial whole cannot be judged by the part. In fact, crime among blacks is no different than crime among whites. All Anglo-Saxons are not wielders of tar and feathers; nor are all colored people given to theft and assault. From the past month's records, in fact, the latter seem to be holding second place on the criminal blotter, "white supremacy", being about ten lengths in front.

WILLIAM WHITE
BOXING, INSPECTOR.
Recently we had the pleasure of shaking hands with our old friend, William White, who is officially known in polite sporting circles as "Plain Bill" White. "Bill", who is the most versatile chap whom we have ever known, has just been appointed Boxing Inspector by the New York State Boxing Commission, and after he had reluctantly displayed his official credentials and taken us over to see "Tiger" Flowers and "Jamaica Kid" do their stuff. we decided to give the suffering readers of this column a brief "close-up" of this official censor of the ring industry.
When Jake Kilrain and John L. Sullivan fought each other to a 61-round draw in the burning sun at New Orleans, "Bill" White was a kiddie in Washington, D. C. When "Bill" entered his "teens" the call of the ring and the track hastened his exit from the old homestead. Being too light for the ring but just right for the track. "Bill" served his apprenticeship as a jockey and soon was given regular mounts, many of which he piloted to victory. There was something unsatisfying in the life of the little jockey, however, and "Bill" was soon busy qualifying himself for a world which would last after he had become too heavy for a two-year-old colt.
To make a long story short, after a few years interim and we crossed "Bill's" path again, he was General Manager of the New York Office of the Chicago Defender, which office, under "Bill's" careful guidance, has become one of the foremost newspaper offices in New York City. Here, behind a big roll-top desk the former jockey manages the New York end

of the World's Greatest Weekly. And when "Bill" wants a hundred per cent. of efficiency put into a news story for the Defender, particularly in the realm of sports, he grabs his big fountain pen and covers the event himself. And if there's a better sports writer in New York City than "Bill"—well, we haven't met him yet, that's all. White's designation to an inspectorship of New York boxing bouts speaks for itself. It means cleanliness, honesty, good sportsmanship, and progressive supervision. What more could the public want? Nothing!

"FLAVORLESS" BEEF IN KOKOMO.
Barbecues are apparently no longer popular in Kokomo, Indiana, and whether or not the reason can be traced to the door of the K. K. K. remains to be seen. At any rate, it is said that last Saturday when a political barbecue for the colored voters of Kokomo was held, the political hosts, after corraling the best culinary art available in the Hoosier State, prepared nine hundred pounds of juicy western beef for the expected guests. Their joy turned to grief, however, when bovis lingua and choice rib cuts went begging; for alas, there were only forty seven hungry colored voters in attendance at the barbecue. 5
It is frankly asserted throughout Hoosierland that the State Republican ticket, named by the K. K. K. forces, is placing the national ticket in jeopardy, and that colored voters have deserted by the thousands. Apprehension is rampant, and the concensus of opinion is that only a miracle can hold the colored voters in the bosom of the G. O. P. Anyhow, beef has lost its flavor in Kokomo; and there is weeping and wailing, but no snapping of teeth.
That Negro labor of New York and New Jersey is perfecting strong affiliations with the American Federation of Labor.
That Judge Robert H. Terrell, of Washington, D. C. has recovered his health sufficiently to consider returning to the bench. Good luck, Judge.
That the ninth inning finish of the Republican Campaign Committee in Indiana is a "humdinger"—speed, pep, victory.
That the withdrawal of Hon. L. P. Summers, as candidate for Congress from the Ninth Virginia District was a hard blow to the Negro Outlook League, of Washington. D. C.
That Robert M. LaFollette, presidential candidate, once said he objected to political equality for the Negro because it was not "expedient."
That Attorney Walter Robinson, Republican leader in Kentucky, is slated for something "nice" after election. Walter certainly has our okay.
That U. S. Attorney-General Stone has assigned eminent counsel to defend Hon. Walter L. Cohen, whose citizenship has been attacked in a U. S. Court in Louisiana.
That the call of New Mexico for cotton-pickers is a gesture to see whether there are many more Negro migrants in the southern well.
That there are thirteen hopeful candidates for the post of Register of the U. S. Treasury,—that is, of course, if the present incumbent should be forced to yield to one of the BRETHREN. Well, at least twelve of the thirteen will make that number unlucky, as usual.

What is "Perfect Love"?—The nation is watching the former Mrs. A. L. Hall-Quest of Cincinnati-Chicago and Minnesota for the answer. She has gone on record as having found it in Maj. F. W. Hart. Her husband, Professor at Pittsburgh University, listened to her plea for freedom, suppressed his primitive emotions and in asking for divorce attempted to shield the "other man" name for his wife's sake. Maj. Hart's wife then divorced him, so the "perfect love" might be realized.

DR. WOODSON'S EFFORT
THE NINTH ANNUAL Meeting of the Association for the Study of Negro Life held here September 29 and 30, although beset with unusually bad weather was nevertheless a success from many viewpoints. Dr Thomas I. Brown's discussion of "Helpful Contact of the Races" was along the usua. well-known lines for the discussion of this question. Prof Miles Mark Fisher's talk about "The Religious Life of the Negro During the Workl War" was unique and interesting. As a diary writer, he would be a tremendous success.
Dr. James E. Gregg of Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute, surprised every one by his broad liberality of thoughts in his discussion of "The Questions of Superiority and Interiority". The cause attacks now being made by Dr. W. E. U. DuBois upon the management of Fisk University could not be launched against an institution which has such an educator as Dr. Gregg at its head. While pleading in extenuation that he had not had time to properly prepare the address the fundamental ear marks of great right principles were everywhere in evidence.
Certainly in choosing him, the trustees of Hampdon Institute made no mistake. Prof. C. M. Maloney, in discussing "The Negro Among the Races" was extreme. While not directly questioning the supremacy of the white race, he lost no opportunity in belittling the Indian and ascribed to him a point of vantage below that of the Negro, both in Indian squaw will ever darken his

Beautiful Girl Reveals Secret
Once my hair was anything but long and silky soft as it is now, and my complexion was sallow, and there were often unsightly pimples on my face.
One day I heard of Exelento Quinine Pomade for the hair and purchased a jar. Almost immediately it stopped all dandruff, made my hair grow long, soft and fine, and gave it a delightful sheen.
Because of the perfectly wonderful results I obtained from Exelento Quinine Pomade, I purchased a jar of Exelento Skin Beautifier. It changed my sallow complexion to clear, lovely skin, glowing with health. For pimples other skin blemishes, it has no equal.
If I am as beautiful as people say, it is all due to Exelento preparations. Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Beautifier may be obtained for only 25% at most drug stores, or will be sent postpaid upon receipt of price by the

However, there are many factors to be considered. First is the fact that three States, Maine with 6 votes Arizona with 3 and Delaware with 3, have not, voted in this Presidential poll. Second is the very surprising situation shown in this poll, whereby Ohio with 24 votes is in the LaFollette column and Oklahoma with 10 votes is in the Coolidge column.
Republican leaders believe firmly that they will carry Ohio. It is what is known as a "Republican State." Were La Follette not in the race, there is little doubt but that Coolidge would carry it. However, La Follette has the support of the six strong Scripp-Howard newspapers in Ohio, so there is the possibility of the State going to the third party candidate.
In Oklahoma, Coolidge is as likely to lose as he is to win. Oklahoma is a southern border State and usually goes Democratic. So if Coolidge should win Ohio, lose Oklahoma—and maybe Utah—credited to him in this poll, he would still be shy votes in the electoral college for election.
This Presidential poll shows, as do other leading straw voes now being taken, such as the Literary Dizes, and Hearst Newspapers polls that there is a strong possibility of the election being thrown into Congress for a final naming of our next President. Every day now political leaders and writers are openly anouncing their conviction that the election will go to Congress for set-

Assuming that the different States will vote as indicated in The Planet's Nationwide Presidential Poll, the electoral votes will be won as follows:
COOLIDGE: New York, 45; Illinois, 29; Massachusetts, 18; New Hampshire, 4; Kansas, 10; Iowa, 13; Pennsylvania, 38; Indiana, 15; Michigan, 15; Oklahoma, 10; Connecticut, 7; Utah, 4; New Jersey, 14; Oregon, 5; Colorado, 6; Rhode Island, 5; Vermont, 4; New Mexico, 3.—TOTAL 245.
The votes in this Presidential poll express the sentiment of voters in the smaller cities, towns and rural districts. More than 7,000 newspapers published in towns throughout the country have cooperated with this newspaper in taking this poll. The Publishers Autocaster Service, in New York City, which serves this newspaper, has been the National Headquarters for the poll. It has been conducted in an impartial manner.
LA FOLLETTE: Wisconsin, 13; Washington, 7; California, 13; Montana, 4; Wyoming, 3; South Dakota, 5; Minnesota, 12; Ohio, 24; Idaho, 4; North Dakota, 5.—TOTAL.....
DAVIS: Maryland, 8; Texas, 20; Georgia, 14; Missouri, 18; Virginia, 12; West Virginia, 8; Nevada, 3; Nebraska, 8; Arkansas, 9; Tennessee, 12; Louisiana, 10; Florida, 6; Kentucky, 13; North Carolina, 12; Alabama, 12; Mississippi, 10; South Carolina, 9. TOTAL....
This Presidential poll is particularly interesting inasmuch as it is the only vote taken which indicates the small town and community sentiment. Both the Literary Digest, and the Hearst Newspaper polls are more representative on the big city and large town sentiment.
The tabulation of the votes by States and the arrangement in the electoral column, as published herewith, furnish many points for discussion—none of which, of course, can be proved until the final official votes on November 4, have been counted.
Davis gains on La Follette in the popular vote during the last two weeks of this vote, can be accounted for in the number of Southern States which sent in returns. The "Solid South" is voting true to form and there seems to be no spot where the Third Party ticket cut in to take Democratic votes. Missouri has come to be classed as a "border State." Here La Follette seems to be making quite a showing.
Of the three States which did not vote, Maine—as indicated in the recen- primaries—will go to Coolidge, The Democrats think they will carry Delaware. How Arizona will go, no one seems to know.

Union Scores Brilliant and Sensational 12==0 Victory Over Shaw=11.
Large Crowd Sees Shaw Go Down in Defeat--Football Scores from Chicago and Montgomery.
(Chester L. Washing.on)
Hovey Stadium, October 23 — Western style football sock took a decided advance here Saturday when Coach Harvey of Washburn College fame, led his gallant host of fighting Panthers of Union in a brilliant triumph against Coach Martin's Bear brigade at Hovey Field in one of the hardest fought games ever played on this historic athletic field. Slightly crippled on account of injuries to linemen, the mighty Union machine, with its back to the wall, "hit on all eleven" and with a terrific offense and a determined defense, scored a touchdown after 12 minutes of play and then tallied 6 more points in the final period.
With the veteran All-American Allen Jackson barking signals and punting perfectly, averaging about 35 yards, the sensational Barksdale and Houston at tackles, a truly brilliant center, Tobin; Lightfoot; Anderson fighting all the way at guards and Shields, Gross, Boffman, Edgar and Moon runnin' wild, the backfield flashed in spectacular fashion.
The game started out with the strong toe Chambers of Shaw kicking behind Union's goal and Shields and Moton featured, together with Tennessee Gray, by making consistent, though small gains around the ends. Union made little advance in the first quarter through the line, but there was fighting there at every minute of the game. The continuous heated battle between the clever Tobin and the hardened Rooks was thrilling, with Union's All-Southern center having the better of the argument, Barksdale and Houston's brilliant work on the line fairly scintillated.
Mitchell and Chambers were outstanding for Shaw in their running and kicking respectively, while Prid geon was a real menace in the visitors' line.
The injection of Capt. Corrothers into the game inspired the boys and they immediately made substantial gains led off by "Horse" Moton's 20 yard run around right end; Corroth er's featured with a good catch of a 15 yard pass, tho' he was suffering an injured ankle.
"Tennessee" Gross goa a pass from Jackson and dashed 13 yards for the first touchdown after Shields had gained 5 yards. O. M. Washington carried the pisklin over for the second touchdown in the final period after Boffman got a pretty 15 yard pass and Shields hit for 4 yards.
Shields brought the crowd to their feet by two spectacular 20 yard end runs and Tennessee gained consistently together with Moton Jackson's 25 yard dash. Stewart substituted at tackle and played his position well and Tyler looked good.
TIGER FLOWERS WINS FROM

NEW YORK, Oct. 23.—(P. N. S.)—Tiger Flowers of Atlanta continued his winning ways here Saturday night when he won on a technical kayo in the ninth round over Jamaica Kid. The Kid couldn't do a thing with Flowers thrust the sessions and although the Kid was never knocked down for a count. Flowers had him out standing up. In the ninth, Flowers worked Jamaica Jid into a corner and pummeled him with lefs and rights to the face until the Kid was in a dazed condition. The referee then intervened and stouped the hout.

ALABAMA STATE DEFEATS THE INDUSTRIAL HIGH ELEVEN.
MONTGOMERY, ALA., Oct. 17.—Playing their second game of the season before an enthusiastic throng at Paterson Field this afternoon, the Alabama State Normal eleven nosed out: a 12-0 victory over the plucky warriors from the Industrial High School of Birmingham. The game was one of the most thrilling of many a day and the two touchdowns came in the last seven minutes of play when Ealle Wallace went over the first marker after a series of smashing runs down the field and when George Underwood, for the second, grabbed a 20 yard pass from Captain Hall and ran 25 yards.

OUTSTANDING STARS IN WORLD
SERIES SHINE BRIGHT
(Preston News Service)
CHICAGO, ILL., October 23.—Playing the last games of the East West world series, the Kansas City club faces the Hildale ball tossers on even terms, following one of the greatest come-backs in the history of the diamond sport. Outclassed three games to one and practically out of the running following the first game in Kansas City, the Monrochs, fighting before a friendly home crowd, and realizing they must win if they hoped to stay in the running, the club came back on Sunday and Tuesday, evening up the series, and forcing the play to Chicago where the winner will eventually be decided
Regardless of the outcome of the games, baseball history will have been made when the first world series will have become history. Because flashing their brilliance across the horizon are men whose names will live as long as baseball survives.
First there is "Nip" Winters, elongated southpaw of the Philadelphia, who won two games in succession for Hildale, and sent Kansas City into 12 long innings to beat him in his third start.
Then there is "Bullet" Rogan, whose victory over Hildale in first game, set off the fireworks, and whose trusty budgeon has played no small part in the three wins of his club.
Judy Johnson, whose sensational hitting and fielding at shorts'bp, where he was thrown at the las' minute; the sensational work of George Johnson in centerfield for Hildale, and the work of Newt Joseph at third for Kansas City, not to mention the sparking bits of fielding of Warfield and Hawkins, have been bright lights in the paying.

Sallie's Temptations by GLADY BAKER In Which She Is Pioued.
4.1.1
After the hop at Barraneas, I woke early next morning. The group of casement windows that faced me were changed into one great splouch of blue like stained church glass windows. Slipping into my negligee I ran over and looked out at the resurrection of the morning. It was the time of day when all little things are stirring. I could hear the first shy twitching of the birds in the tropical oander trees that reached up to the window, their tops all ending in clusters of shell pink blossoms. Leaning out I caught one in my fingers and the tug at its stem aroused its companion flowers who sent up a sea of fragrance and I drank in their sweetness.
It was chilly, my chiffon negleige was too thin for the early morning. I looked about for something with more warmth to put about my shoulders and seeing my evening cape on a chair where I had fungi in a few hours earlier. I wrapped it around me smugly and settling down in the silken pillows of the window seat, resumed my dreaming. Everything out of doors was so fresh and lovely the sparkling dew drops making the heads of grass and trees resplendent. Suddenly I was conscious of an intruding odor—that was not theainty fragrance of the oleander—no it was stale and heavy. It came from the remains of several cigar filters in a nearby receiver.
They seemed to have no part in the picture and I flung him far out of the window. But somehow the spell was broken and thoughts of the dance came surging. I remembered Warren Fisher and felt a wave of embarrassment. After his wife had treated me so cool, I lost interest in the party. It wasn't that I cared about his being married, for I realized that the attraction I had felt for him was superficial, but I resent being placed in the position of having Mrs. Fisher think I was mad about her good-looking husband. Well, I was not mad about him, had not been mad about him, and never would be for that master.
Right at that moment there was only one person I wanted to see. That was Curtiss Wright, and with the thought of him I became very lonely. He was so different from the other men with their "hot-lines," as Ellie called them. If he ever fall in love with a girl it would be the big love of his life, the one real, living, throbbing adventure, and he'd be true to her in thought and deed—not a flirt like Warren Fisher And ye—he hatched flappers. I wondered if I had been reared in a different environment if I could have been the dream-girl he wanted.
If my mother had lived I would not have been a flapper. She was a tractive and charming, and could be frivolous, and yet she had a depth of mind unlike most of my friends' mothers and a yearning for mental atalnment. She had wanted me to be accomplished and urged me to study art and go on with my music. "With your mind full of interesting and beautiful things you won't be caught in the maels from that's coming."—I could hear her saying. I wondered if she meant jazz, and cook tall parties and petting. If she had not been taken away maybe I would have been Curtis Wright's first love. And with his name on my breath—I slipped down into the pillows and in a few moments was dozing.
Lace that afternoon, still more or less subdued from my thoughts of the morning. I wandered away from the rest of the crowd and sat alone on the terrace overlooking the unruffled surface of the azure water. Cato, one of the Japanese servants, bought me a telegram and a square box from the floris s. I opened the wire.
"When a woman has a man in for Sunday night supper she's nothing short of designing," Marjorie.
It was just like Marji to do that. She didn't realize how I had begun to feel about the silly beet we had made in the beginning and I understood the spirit of fun in which she had sent it. I re read the words; a dull, slow emotion surged over me and I realized that I hated Anne Coddington. For the first time in my life I was jealous. So they had been together Sunday night—Anne and Curtiss...people would begin linking their names together. I was piqued and my rage mounted higher and higher.
I ore the string from the box and it was full of orchids. The card was flippant:
"Am completely surrounded by the Germans. Otherwise I would be as near as these flowers which I be seech you to wear this evening. Other days stretch forth with promise. The thought is distant, but it brings warmth to a lonely heart Warren."
"The Germans"—he meant his wife. I had been told that he had married her for money and that she
watched him with suspicion. They were spending the winter at one of the pretty homes on the bay shore and his escapades were the talk of Pensacola. "The Germans"—I smiled and reread the last part of the message. Since hearing about Anne and Curtiss Wright I liked Warren Fisher. What difference did it make if he did flirt? He made love exquisitely. "Curtiss Wright could take unpopular Anne Coddington and go to the devil!" I murmured, and skipped back into the living room where Ellie was moving about making light shine softly from lovely lamps in far corners.
"Where you been, Sallie? Not mooning." She called to me gaily; "the boys are in from the links and have been screaming for the 'life of the party.' Here they are now." And with their arrival came Cato with his magical tray of cocktails and in a few moments the room resounded with good natured small talk and laughter.
"I's a good Mother and Ded are in Cuba." laughed Ellie as one of the boys, who had been drinking a lot, began snapping the fragile stems of the glasses.
"Hope they like the climate so well they'll stay there 'frever.' responded the destroyer.
"Here's hoping they won't come beak before mornin'—wont come back before mornin'," another began shining.
And still another: "Tell you what let's do, let's all stay up a night, shoot crabs, play poker and have a regular all night party. We'll go into town for ham an' when day is dawning. "I've a better idea than that," Judith McLean suggested. It's wilder. Judith couldn't drink very much and I noticed her eyes were sary. (Continued Next Week.)

Uncle John
I love to meet the fliver as she spins along the pike, with the happy little family aboard. There's nothin' quite so joyous as a benzine-buggy hike, in a speedster that you really can afford. Where distance lends enchantment—like she didn't use to do, when Old Dobbin was the power before the throne,—O the sassy little windhield with the smiles a-shinin' through, lays hold of a distinction all its own!
Smilin' through the windshield is a mighty happy fad, if we meet appreciation on the way,—
Smillin' through the wind-shield—O, it drives away the dumps, when a feller gets to steppin' on the gas—when the little buggy chuckles at the holers, hills an' stumps—let me yell a "Hallelooyer" as they pass! No use a-feelin' sorry when there's happiness to spare, where the thistle-purple decorates the road—there's health an' wealth an' freedom in the crisp October air—God bless the little flivver and—its load!

I did so, and in twenty-four hours after using his medicine I passed at least a half dozen gravel, some as big as a large pea. Since that time I have not suffered with the gravel. I highly recommend L. J. Hayden's medicine to all suffering humanity. I am. J. A. PAGE, 4 Auburn Ave., Richmond Va.

I was cured of a very bad case of Rheumatism by two bottles of L. J. Hayden's wondertal Herb Medicine, after suffering a long time with the dreadful disease. I was unable to move hand or foot, and after I had taken three doses of the medicine I was able to get out of my bed and walk across the floor, and only two bottles of the medicine has made me a perfectly well man in every respect. I cannot give Mr. L. J. Hayden too much praise for what he has done for me. I have sent many other suffering ones to him, and they have also gotten cured. My daughter was also cured of Rheumatism and Indigestion by L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicines at No. 220 W. Broad Street, Richmond, Va. I recommend Mr. L. J. Hayden as one of the greatest healers of the sick on earth. Respectfully.

NATION OF IMBICILES.
GOOD START, BAD END.
WASHINGTON'S TEETH.
RELIGION IN SCHOOLS.
TO BE RICH AND USEFUL.
At Dayton a lighter-than-air flying machine carried up with it a small airplane, as a fish hawk carries up a fish. Two thousand feet up the little airplane was released by the big Zeppelin and went flying off on its own account. That's interesting in this country which has made no preparation to meet the danger of invasion through the air.
Imagine a similar machine, ten times as big, leaving the coast of Asia, or Europe, carrying beneath it a dozen high powered bombing machines. Imagine that big ship coming out of the early morning sky, releasing its brood of swift destroyers to wreck cities—the mother ship and the little ships subsequently landing on safe neutral ground in Canada.
This nation will have the world's greatest fighting fleet of airships soon, or the United States of 1924 will be known in later history as "THE NATION OF IMBECILES"
In the Middle Ages not only men but animals were tried for murder when they killed a human and if guilty" were executed. On a certain occasion a sow, with her litter of suckling pigs, had killed and eaten a young child. The sow was condemned to death, the little pigs were raped, on the ground that "because of their extreme youth they could not be held responsible."
the suckling pigs spared by mediae val justice.
Among letters by George Washington, to be sold in London, one to his Philadelphia dentist tells how much trouble Washington had with his false teeth. They were strung on wires and got loose. They looked about as natural, when he wore them, as a set of small golf balls, being cut out of solid ivory. Civilization does not realize what it owes to dentists and oculists, good false teeth and good spectacles. Think of the ancient Greeks, to whom false teeth and eyeglasses were unknown. The marvel is that so many of them lived to be old.
In a California decision, the State Attorney-General forbids, in public schools, even the Lord's Prayer, in schools of religion. It is no doubt that the public school system should teach the three F's and other positive knowledge, leaving religious teaching to the discretion of parents.
It is wise to keep all religious teaching or favoritism out of public schools. On the other hand, it is unwise, and an outrageous interference with the rights of parents, to tell them that they cannot, at their own expense, send their children to private or parochial schools where religion is taught—provided that educational requirements are met.
Young man, do you want to be rich and useful? Learn something about electricity and try to invent a light storage battery. Electricity, which in itself weighs nothing, will not always be carried about stored in heavy metal, weighing as much as the vehicle that the electricity propels.
Don't be discouraged by the fact that you are not an electrical engineer or a scientist. Sometimes knowing too much about a thing prevents seeing its possibilities clearly.
The man who invented the sewing machine couldn't sew. His whole idea was putting the needle's "eye" at the point of the needle instead of at the other end. An export seamstress would have said, "That's nonsense."
A Filipino laborer, working in the Hamakua sugar mill, is dead of bulbonic plague in Hawaii.
Three rats infested with the plague have been caught.
How soon will our exalted civilization, which gladly spends thousands of millions to kill other humans?
