THE RICHMOND PLANET Half Million Dollars to be Raised by K. of P. Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green Apportions It Membership. Many Grand Lodges Protest--To Finish the Pythian Temple at Chicago, Ill. VOLUME XLIV, NO. 45 Half M be Rais Supreme O Apporti Many Grand the Pythian Chicago, Ill., Aug. 31.—(By the Associated Negro Press.)—The Supreme Lodge of the Knights of Pythias has gone into history. The session held in Chicago will long be remembered by those who participated in its activities as one of the high spots in the record of the organization. In the main, the sessions were harmonious; but under that velvet flow harmony there was a lot of diplomatically concealed rocks upon which the apparent peace threatened to become turbulent on several occasions. Inside Story. The inside story of the convention, when shorn of the garnishment of fraternal ornamentation, is almost thrilling in the disclosures of capably played politics, such as would have reflected credit upon Tammany or other exponents of organized political control. The outstanding phases of the sessions were the consideration of the matter of completing the big, beautiful building under construction in Chicago, the selection of the next place of meeting, and by virtue of these things, the demonstrated control of the organization by that doughty little supreme chancellor from New Orleans who maintained as absolute domination over his organization, as did another charakter of that state, one Simon Legrée, made famous by the immortal Harriett Beecher Stowe. Supreme Chancellor's Orders Chancellor Green is said to have determined that the body should remain in session until the building matter had been disposed of to his satisfaction, and in accord with the policy laid down by his administration. And that was just what happened. A large and affluent delegation, headed by Grand Chancellor W. D. Willis, representing Dallas, Texas, was present with elaborate displays and well supplied headquarters in the Trenier Hotel, determined that the next suitor council should meet in the Lone Star metropolis. Willis is said to be nourishing an ambition to head the Order of Pythians, a fact which makes Texas a bit less alluring to the present incumbent than it might otherwise be. Texans Worked. Texans worked assiduously and were highly optimistic as to the chances of securing the convention, but Indianapolis, the only other contest, won, and will entertain the 1929 convention. The customary fraternal voting practice is by secret ballot, but to the dismay of the Texan delegation, every voter was obliged to stand and vote upon this matter, with the result that many votes pledged to Dallas were lost. It's one way to slip a vote over for a friend and quite another to be caught "bucking" the administration in Pythianism, as well as in the larger field of politics, and the hundred and some-odd active members of the Supreme Pythian organization are a canny lot, each mindful of his own interests and those of his constituents. Many Grand Lodges Opposed. Many grand lodges represented came into the session very much opposed to national building project and this opposition had found expression in the declination of many of those constituent bodies to purchase the construction bonds. There was merit to some of these fellows attitudes, since they claimed that the insurance departments of their respective states refused to accept such holdings as admitted assets of the insurance departments of the order. Against this was Supreme Chancellor Green's determination that the order should not be embarrassed, as has other fraternal bodies, with an incomplete structure. His power and ability were manifested by the dedication of the building with appropriate ceremonies while the convention was in session, and the laying down of plans for the raising of five hundred thousand dollars with which to complete the financing of the building which has already cost the Pythias $642,810.43, according to well-informed Knights. The exact sum estimated to complete this work LOSES HIS TROUSERS AFTER is $502,000. NAP ON ANT-HILL. Must Purchase Bonds. The supreme council allotted bonds in proportion to the membership in each state, a program which was adopted after considerable discussion in the extra sessions which lasted long into the night. The Pythians had a great time in Chicago. The parade was a picturesque and gorgeous affair. The social affairs incident to the convention were extremely creditable and routine business was well conducted; but the big punch in the whole affair was the way Grand Chancellor Green could crack the whip, and make them jump through. LAST CHANCE MUST WIN, SAID RIVALS NONE WILL SURRENDER IN THE RICHMOND PLANET'S AUTOMOBILE CONTEST—FIGHT FOR PRIZE PRODUCES COURAGEOUS FOES. By W. A. Kersey, Campaign Manager. Never has the city of Richmond seen a finer display of the will to win than has been shown on the closing days of the Richmond Planet's big automobile contest. No matter how hot the pace grows the leaders are going to get to the宴 and win a decisive victory. Not to be outdone those in the pack work to crowd out the leaders. There is no let up, because the finish is near. We congratulate the contestants for this evidence of their splendid courage. It means there is victory for them in life's battles. Should they win less than they hope for they will have the satisfaction of fighting the good fight to the glorious finish. Contestants we salute you! On with the fight. May victory crown the deserving. Now For the Whirlwind Finish—Get In the Prize-Winning Class. Now for a whirlwind finish. Now for sensations and surprises. Present leaders must increase their vote totals mightly if they wish to finish in the prize winning class. As may be seen by glancing at the vote total below all the leading candidates are entirely too close to be safe. So development is bound to happen. It is in you to win if you will. This is the final test. These are the days that test your resources. Here is where your supreme courage upholds you and makes you trail in the dust sometimes. Your supreme courage urges you on, even when you tie. The final vote scale is the one big opportunity for success for a motor car that holds treasures for you. Read the final instructions carefully if you would be a prize winner. Provisions that are absolutely vital to success. The present indication points to the hairbreadth finish and appears certain that the margin by which prizes will be won occasions the greatest surprise. No candidate can feel certain of success and there is abundant room for speculation as to whether the bank on any possibilities and there are many people interested in each candidate to assure any one of an easy victory. Relaxation at this time is suicidal to success. Determination to win and votes alone will win. OPENING OF THE VIRGINIA SEMINARY. Editor, The Richmond Planet, Richmond, Va.

RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1927 Unfortunate Frenchman Arraste When Offended Women Stop the PARIS, Sept. 12. — A respectable town father of St. Opportune named Duval took the train yesterday to visit relatives in the town of Bagnoles, Department of the Orne. Where he changed trains there was a twenty-five minute wait and the town father stretched himself on a grass plot near the station and read his paper. When a half hour later he was installed in the second train he was suddenly conscious that he was being bitten on about three quarters of the surface of his body. He investigated and found that during his nature cure he had acquired the whole population of an ant-hill. M. Duval obeyed the instinct of self-preservation and hurriedly taking off his trousers began to shake them vigorously out of the window. At the same moment the train crossed a bridge and M. Duval had a fleeting glimpse of his trousers waving from a bridge support. There was no time to think. The train stopped immediately at a small station and two women selected Duval's compartment for their journey. Duval took one glance at the intruders and tried to crawl under the seat. The women and the danger signal confirmed the unfortunate man who was arrested. In view of the vehement protections of the purity of his intentions the station master finally telephoned Duval's home, where it was explained he had not the habit of going out without his trousers. The station master then drew his charges and lent him a pair of trousers with which he returned to St. Opportune. THE COURT GOT THE MONEY. Much excitement was caused at the corner of Fifth and Marshall Streets last Tuesday, when Willie Baber, white, age 30 of Ellierson, Va., supposed to be slightly under the influence of liquor get into a "rough-house" argument with a colored man named Willie Taylor, who he supposed took six hams out of his wagon at two different times. He said the first time, Taylor put the hams back. The last time, he did not do so. He struck at Taylor, the colored man, and in doing so, struck another colored man, who had nothing to do with the fracas. In a short time, some half dozen were involved. An officer arrested Eaber upon a charge of disorderly conduct. Baber said he did not know who struck him. He had been beaten up to some extent. White men testified they saw two or three colored men strike him, while he was down and identified them. Judge John L. Ingram in good of all the trouble. He was of the opinion that he ought to be in jail. He fined him $25 and dismissed all of the others, including Eaber. Baber wanted 30 cents per pound for his hams. He saw $25 paid in good of the currency, for the hams he lost. MISS BALL'S DRAMA. Goodwill Baptist Church was filled with a very appreciative audience on Monday night, September 12th, when Miss Ida Z. Ball presented her drama, "In the Blood." The young playwright received many congratulations for her wonderful portrayal of life and character. There are many regrets because Miss Ball must soon return to her work at Howard University, where she is pursuing a course for an A. B. in education. Miss Ball would be quite an asset to the dramatic clubs of the city, and we hope that she will soon return to Richmond with her talent.

Power Curtailed. The Baptist women seemed to have been the central figures in the Lott Carey Foreign Mission Convention, which convened in this city recently at the Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist Church, President C. S. Brown, presiding. The unrest, in the body itself asserted itself after 12 o'clock on Friday, 2nd inst., when the officers came up for election. The Executive Committee after a laborious session recommended that in view of his long service, Rev. A. A. Graham, D. D., of Phoebus, Va., who was corresponding secretary, be retired on full pay, and that Rev. Bullock, of North Carolina, be elected in his stead. This was the signal and for an hour fervid oratory broke loose for and against the proposition. President's Support. Those opposed to the distinguished divine supported the recommendation, while the President threw aside all preliminaries and principles of parliamentary law in standing by Rev. D. Graham and opposing the recommendation. In the meantime, Rev. J. Milton Waldron, D. D., one of the ablest and most distinguished divines in the country supported the report of the committee. His time was limited to five minutes. Rev. F. W. Williams, Rev. R. G. Adams, Rev. F. B. Mitchell joined in the chant that Graham's friends would die by him. Threats were made on the other side that the retention of Dr. A. A. Graham would lead to a split. A body of women were also openly opposed to him. Stripped of Power. Rev. Dr. W. T. Johnson, leaving the President's side, moved the pending question. This was ordered and Dr. Graham declared to be re-elected. The board had stripped the corresponding secretary of his power to handle the finance and despite the re-election, the opposition was in a measure pacified. It was intended to apply to the new secretary, but as Graham was substituted, it applies to him. IN MEMORIAM In sad, but loving memory of our dear son, and brother, Langston L.

If all sales records were surpassed by the former Essex, then even higher marks must reward the new. No previous car—no previous value—gives anything by which to judge it. It is the greatest achievement in Essex history. We are now showing this Greater EssexSuper-Six. We could say it is longer, roomier, more luxurious, with greater power and performance—yet that does not express it. We do say: "See it and ride in it with greater expectation of fine things than you ever held for any but the costiest cars". You will not be disappointed.

TEAGLE, PRESIDENT STANDARD OIL (N.J.) When Walter Teagle, president of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, opened negotiations with the chiefs of the German Dye Trust for the American rights to manufacture fuel oil, gasoline and a score of other products from cheap coal, he dealt a final blow at the ridiculous rumors. A museum might soon be without Howden's Manager C.U. WILLIAMS supply and consequently low prices is assured by the work of German scientists who have evolved a way for utilizing huge deposits of coal that is almost valueless in its original state. It abounds in Germany. There are enormous deposits of it in the Northwestern United States, ready to be made useful if America's oil wellspring up in new sections almost every day, should ever quit gushing. "We were the first to import the German artificial oil for experimental purposes in oil furnaces," said C. U. Hammond, professor of the largest burner manufacturer in the country at his office in Bloomington, Illinois. "We brought it over not because of doubt regarding American oil, which is cheap enough and good enough for anyone, but to allay the suspicions of those who might believe the in-founded rumors regarding American supplies. The German product can be sold cheaply enough to compete with American natural oil, and still give a good profit."

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1927 Governor Bryd says the price of gas is too high and practically every motorist agrees with him. A brazen woman is an abomination to a cultured man and a rude man is abhorred by a cultured woman. You cannot win by being disre spectful and uncouth in your manner Politeness will win in the long run. We may not get to heaven this year or the next, but we Shall get there some time, if we weary not in well doing. Ocean beach bathing costumes have been transferred inland and the females are wearing them on our city streets. Modesty in women is still "a pear of great price" with some men, but the majority of them do not seem to set any value upon it. When we abuse all white people, we are showing little sense and no judgment and this is true, when some white people form similar opinions and take similar action in dealing with us. ```markdown ``` We have had two instances of white men in the State of Virginia being arrested for killing other white men in the defense of their own homes. The fact that both were subjected to needless expense is to be negretted. The rule of law, which is not the rule of reason, is that every man charged with a criminal offense shall prove his innocence and not that his accusers shall prove his guilt. This is one of the peculiar things in which "the whole world is upside down." It will adjust itself, however, either during this century or at the beginning of the next. We have received "Norfolk's Thirty-six Per Cent Colored," a booklet compiled and published by that great weekly publication, The Norfolk Journal and Guide. It deals with the homes, churches, schools, business enterprises, occupations and general social and economic status of the sixty-four thousand colored citizens of that locality. We are suffused with genuine admiration of this remarkable production. The National Baptist Convention at Detroit was a great success. The selection of that great Baptist divine, Rev. L. K. Williams, D. D., has ensured the success of this organization and emphasized the fact that able men in the chair will ensure the success of any enterprise. We have seared though that the onerous duties imposed upon this remarkable character may undermine his health and lead him to an untimely grave. It will be necessary that the work be so divided as to lighten the load of responsibility now upon his shoulders. We direct attention to the great Radio Show, now sponsored by the Richmond, Va., News Leader. The committee has specified Friday, September 23, 1927, as the day for colored people. It will be a highly educational exhibit and will richly repay a visit there. Hardy's Orchestra has been employed to furnish music and we urge all of our people to go there. The location is on Broad and Meadow Streets. The story coming from Norton, Va., where Sadie Mendil, a white woman, confessed that she murdered Bertie Lindsey, of Knoxville, a crime for which Maurice Mays, a colored man went to the electric chair protesting his innocence reads like a novel. Inasmuch as the colored man had paid the penalty for the crime, no charge of murder could be entered against her. She frankly confesses that she dressed herself up in men's clothes, blackened her face and shot the woman, whom she had tracked, in company with her husband. She said her name was Mrs. John Roddy. It has since been brought out that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People employed attorneys to defend the colored man, but without successful result. As horrible as this case appears to be, it is but one of many. It is practically certain that thousands of innocent colored people are serving time in Southern prisons for crimes that they never committed. This is due to the practice, which makes it essential that a person charged with crime shall prove their innocence. Some way and somehow, the prayers of the righteous will prevail and justice will be accorded to all of the people in this great land of ours. WANTED 50 Thousand Skinny Men TO PUT ON AT LEAST 5 POUNDS OF SOLID FLESH IN 30 DAYS Countless thousands of underweight men and women have got rid of that scrawny face and figure by a simple easy treatment that is sure and inexpensive. It's really marvelous how quickly those who try it take on flesh where flesh is most needed. Hollows in neck and chest fill out and narrow sunken chested men begin to take on a decided manliness in just a few weeks. The one great scientific weight producer that people who need more flesh can depend upon is McCoy's Tablets and besides helping you to develop an attractive figure these sugar coated tablets bring to those that take them more energy, strength and vigor—they have proven a superb tonic. McCoy takes all the risk—Read this ironclad guarantee.

Outstrip Former Shows. The 1927 show promises to far outstrip its two predecessors in size, character of exhibits and entertainment features. There will be attractions for men and women, young and old, and children. In addition, the show has been extended one day in order that the colored people of Richmond may have an opportunity to visit it. The fifth and closing day has been set aside for them. Finishing touches on preliminary details were added yesterday at a meeting of all the chairmen of the dealers' committees and representatives of The News Leader. Booths are being constructed and decorations placed in the big building formerly occupied by the Used Car Exchange, Meadow Street, near Broad. This work is being pressed in order that every detail will be complete when the doors are thrown open to the public. Daily Prize Awards. Apart from expensive and complete entertainment features, public interest is expected to be heightened by the daily award of prizes, valued in an aggregate at more than $1,000. Nearly all of the exhibitors have agreed to contribute the prizes, which will be given away. Each will pertain to radio, and most of them doubtless will be eagerly sought by all spectators. They will include receive sets, loud-speakers and other equipment. B. H. Hoffman, chairman of the publicity committee, said today that the following firms already have agreed to donate prizes, principally receivers: Dabney & Bugg, Hoffman & Goodman, Hewell Brothers, the Halladay Company, The Kaufman Store, Price Brothers, Tower-Binford. Others are expected to swell the list. Mr. Hoffman stated that local dealers are reporting the arrival of new model receivers and the latest thing in equipment. Scores of different kinds of sets will be on display. This year, they will be expected to be delivered of 1926 because the Used Car Exchange quarters offers far more space.

(Chicago World) (Chicago World) Texans made a determined fight during the recent convention of Pythians in this city to have the next biennial gathering of the order in Dallas, Texas. Richardson, militant editor of the Houston Informer, and Rice, the scholarly standout man of the Dallas Express, came loaded with invitations from everybody, white and black, who amounts to much in their sections of the State, for the Pythians to come down. Promises were made that white Texans would treat the delegates all right, that, in fact, white Texans would be glad to have the great host of men and women in its midst. But Texas did not get the convention. No, not even after Grand Chancellor Willis, of the State of Texas, made one of the most impassioned and brilliant speeches of the convention, promising his brother Pythians as square a deal in Texas as they might get anywhere, if they would only come. Supreme Chancellor Green arose to speak after Willis, and defeated the Texans. Green is from Louisiana. As a result of his speech, the delegates lined up against the prejudice of the South and seat the next convention to a northern city, where the visitors will be treated fairly; more fairly than they would be in Dallas. Texas. It is to laugh! As bad as Texas may be, there is no large city in that large State that treats Negroes any worse than Indianapolis does. When the prejudiced cities of the so-called North are mentioned; such cities as Cincinnati, St. Louis, Washington, Baltimore and Indianapolis, Indianapolis is always spoken of first because Indianapolis is the worst. There is only one thing that a Negro can do in Indianapolis to public companies are concerned, that he cannot do in far Southern cities—ride where he pleases on street cars. But he can't go in the theaters, to the best lectures, into cafes, and other public places. He is segregated in every way that the law will permit. Indianapolis is the capital of the spirit of the Ku Klux Klan in the North. We have been in Dallas and we have been in Indianapolis. If it were our convention, we would prefer Dallas. It's hard to be under a concession to Indianapolis, if race prejudice were the chief issue involved. It almost looks as though there were some other issue involved. It almost looks as though there were some other issle. The supreme chancellor made the speech against Texas and the supreme chancellor knows Willis is very strong and very rich, even though he is in Texas. The next time Texas seeks the convention we advise the leaders to convey to the supreme chancellor their endorsement of him for another term. FULTON NOTES Rev. A. D. Clarke, one of our own boys, delivered a very helpful sermon in the morning and at the evening service. Live singing was had by the choir, under the leadership of M.

C.; on behalf of the city by the Hon. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer of Howard University. Responses to these addresses were made by the following: to Mrs. Neal, Mrs. Maude A. Morrisette, to Mrs. Delphia, to Mrs. Olivia Smith, Richmond Va.; to Mr. Scott, Mr. L. C. White, Richmond, Va. No Conflict There. The program was so arranged that both the work of the Supreme Lodge and that of the Nursery Guardians' Convention could be cared for in the time allotted, without conflict either as to time or interest. Accordingly the first day was given to the work of the Supreme Lodge, and the chief business to claim its attention, after ritualistic formalities had been compiled with, was the hearing of reports from the following: M. M. Fayze; Supreme Treasurer, T. L. Beverly; Supreme Auditors, Mrs. L. Alma L. Chapman and L. C. White, all of Richmond, Va., and the annual address of Supreme Master A. W. Holmes, which was in the nature of a report. What Reports Showed. These reports showed that the Society has enrolled 35,000 members during the past fifteen years, paid death claims aggregating thousands of dollars; that it now has assets of more than $60,000, and is free from debt. On the basis of these accomplishments the Supreme Master urged the delegates to be loyal and faithful to the Order, predicting for and it a future of prosperity. His recommendations of plans for intensifying the work in Virginia, and extending it to certain parts of Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, hitherto unreached, were unanimously adopted.

AN I THINK ILL CHANGE THE THOUSAND DOLL FROM THA OTHER POCKET TO PANTS ership must be built. Dr. Johnson was master of himself and his audience throughout his address. Mr. Carter spoke on the subject of "Thrift" and pictured it as the bedrock on which all business enterprises must rest. Thanks to God. The body adopted the following resolutions: Recognizing the struggle through which our Order has passed and the unusual progress it has made, it is befitting that its 15th annual meeting should have been held in the city of Washington, D. C., the capital of the greatest nation in the world, a city rich with opportunities for center people since their emancipation from slavery. Now, therefore, be it resolved: 1. That we thank the Almighty God for His unerring guidance of the leaders of this great body, and pledge to keep our hand in His hand. 2. That we thank our own members of the Washington District and the citizens of Washington, D. C., for the very cordial welcome extended us during our living accommodations which have been ours during our sojourn in their city. 3. That we tender a vote of thanks to the John Wesley A. M. E. Z. Church, for the satisfactory way in which the sessions of this convention have been housed and cared for during our stay here. 4. That we hereby express our appreciation to the local committee for the splendid sightseeing tour which our delegates to view many points of beauty and historic interest, thus enabling us to carry from Washington many pleasant memories of the beauties and wonders here to be beheld. Urged Race Support. 5. That this convention will go on record as urging our people to patronize Negro professional men and women and Negro business enterprises, whenever it is reasonably possible and profitable to do so.

Anderson, of Beaver Dam, whose term of office would not have expired until September, 1928, resigned to give all of his time to ministerial duties. At his request, Mr. L. C. White, of Richmond, Va., was elected to that position. Fine Singing. The Ideal Choirs of Richmond and Newport News rendered acceptable music throughout the sessions.

Japan Adopts Our Bread Habits, Nipponese Expert Says CHICAGO—Japan is adopting the year," said Mr. Mizutani. "The Japanese are curtailing the acreage of wheat and increasing this acreage, in Korea. In Japan more land is available for growing the mulberry for silk texture. This yields far greater money returns than rice and enables lower classes to buy more desirable white bread. White bread has been large modern bakery in Japan. There has been a large increase in the consumption of white bread.389 Japanese baker methods have been latest equipment for manufacturing the very best bread.

Because she is young, — and pretty — and BLONDE—she goes from comedy filler to lead for Lasky in "Gentlemiller Prefer Blondes." One of the first things the army does when an applicant for military service appears is to examine his feet. The soldier must have healthy feet. It is just as necessary for the great civilian army to give attention to the feet. In this article, Dr. Wm. M. Scholl, noted authority on the human foot, tells us the relation between the leg muscles and the health of the foot. By DR. W. M. SCHOLL The more vigorous movements of the foot in walking are performed by it. muscles of the leg, the more inward, and delicate motions are involved by those of the foot itself. The rotation of the calf muscles to the foot is so intimate that it a woman has habituated her feet to reasonably high heels, as many women do, assuming higher heels at the period of adolescence and gradually increasing the height of heel, the calf muscles become accustomed to the increased height of heel, and contract to "take up the slack," as it were. Consequently a woman who has become accustomed to the wearing of high heels should not change suddenly to low heels. Such a step should be taken only under expert supervision, incidentally, in speaking of high heels, I do not mean exaggerated types which elevate the heel to abnormal heights, form an insecure base, and permit the foot to slide forward in the shoe, crowding the toes and injuring the delicate metatarsal arch in the forward part of the foot. Such shoes are always in need. There is an intimate connection between the muscles of the leg and the heath of the foot. The tendons in which the muscles terminate are strong, inex恳ible white fibrous corpus that carry some of their force to the foot. If you will look at an anatomical diagram of the foot, you will see that the tendon of Achilles, the thickest, strongest tendon of the body, which is inserted into the lower part of the os calcis, or heel bone is the common tendon of two big muscles, the gastrocnemius and soreus muscles. The action of the gastrocnemius muscle, for example, is to raise the heel of the foot by the Achilles tendon and to extend the foot. The muscles of the leg also help to sustain the foot as well as to direct it and when they become weak through disease disease, or organic weakness, then condition is reflected in the condition of the foot. Conversely, persons with ailing feet have difficulty in walking, naturally. There is a tendency to avoid pressing upon the weak or afflicted region and to throw the body's weight elsewhere upon the foot. This may strain and distort other portions of the foot. When the body's weight is improperly borne, the force is sent to distort any foot or shoe. Many persons are deterred from walking by weakness of the arches which cause pain during or after walking. The sides of the feet are sustained by the foot. Toronto, Quee GOVERNMENT HOUSE, TORONTO® Toronto, capital of the province of Ontario and second largest city of Canada, is one of the most beautiful cities of the Dominion. Situated on the picturesque shore of Lake Ontario some eighty miles from Niagara Falls, her citizens have affectionately called her the "Queen City"—a city distinguished by busy and beautiful streets and stately public buildings. Toronto is an important industrial, commercial and financial city with a population of some 634,000, largely of English and Scottish descent. The city's real growth began with the immigration of the United Empire Loyalists to Ontario after the War for Independence. Their hard work, and the 'doubtless tenacity of their descendants' transformed Ontario from a wilderness into what is now the most populous province of Canada. Of Toronto's public edifices the most noted is the group of Parliam- ment buildings. The latest addition to Toronto's distinguished buildings THE RIDE IS ENHANCED BY A BRISK WALK AND VIGOR STIMULATED HEAD UP IN WALKING POSTURE NOT QUITE CORRECT CORRECT POSTURE PHOTOGRAPH SHOWS TENDONS BY WHICH THE MOVEMENT OF LEG MUSCLES IS CARRIED TO THE FOOT CONNECTING WITH THE HEEL IS THE ACCHILLES TENDON WHICH Lifts THE HEEL CONTRACTION OF CALF MUSCLES IN THE ACTION OF WALKING UNDER IMPULSE OF BIG CALF MUSCLES muscles. If the, sustaining muscles and tissues become sufficiently weakened, and sufficient pressure is placed upon them, they will give way and the bones descend toward the ground.

It can be far progressed, surgical plates or arch supports, intelligently adjusted to the individual foot, may be used temporarily to give on City of Our North THE ROYAL YORK will be the new Canadian Pacific hotel, "The Royal York."

Many striking testimonials from the Secretary of War and Army Officers of high rank and reputation are set forth in no uncertain terms. The following ringing words of Major General Beh, addressed to the famous "Buffaloes," the 367th Regiment, are typical of the high regard and respect of American and European officers for our colored troops. Every private in this regiment and most of the officers were Negroes. The General said:— "This is the best disciplined and best drilled and best spirited regiment that has been under my command at this cantonment. I predicted last fall that Colonel Moss would have the best regiment stationed here and you men have made my prediction come true. I would lead you in battle against any army in the world with every confidence in the outcome". THE NEGRO IN THE NAVY.
