Holds Church Responsible For Youthful Offenders.
The Churches and Ministers of the city were severely censured during last Monday's session of the Baptist Ministers Conference by Mr. W. R. Johnson, Probation Officer of the Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court of Richmond.
Mr. Johnson was invited to address the Conference on some phase of his work in dealing with delinquent Negro children. During his address the speaker attacked the Church and Ministers, basing his attack upon the $e$ fact that 95 per cent of the delinquents passing through his office claimed church affiliation. Because of this alleged church connection, it was the opinion of Mr. Johnson that the Church had, in some manner, failed to do its duty; hence these so-called communicants found their way into the court and that their moral delinquency was directly chargeable to the Church and its Ministers.
Mr. Johnson seated further that the Church should foster playground and recreational activities, seeming to believe $e$ that through training developed along these lines, moral delinquency among the $e$ youth of our group would be lessened.
Commenting upon Mr. Johnson's address, Dr. W. L. Ransome, pastor First Baptist Church, South Richmond, held that the corruption of our yuth had an economic basis; that because of the low wage for which our group ordinarily must labor, families are deprived of means with which $t_0$ maintain within the home an atmosphere conductive to the welfare of the child.
The address was the subject of remarks by Drs. Hill Brinkley and Williams. These learned Divines differed with the speaker as to his charge against the Church. All agreed however that the address was well prepared and splendidly delivered predicting for its author a brilliant future.
The president, Rev. J. E. Fountain, B. Th. closed the discussion with the sage remark, "An ounce of experience is worth a bon of theory."

Men's Day at the Second Baptist Church Sunday November 4th was a success. $1.74 was lifted at the 3:30 P. M. service.
Rev. Joseph T. Hill D. D. delivered a powerful sermon at the Second Baptist Church last Sunday night on "Wild Beasts." The church was packed and hundreds of others who arrived shortly after eight clock could not obtain admission to the services. The question of more seating space's looming large at this famous edifice.
Miss Ruth Morris, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Charles S. Morris is sick at her mission post in Liberia Africa where she has been laboring the past year.
HALLOWEEN DANCE
A merry group of young people was delightfully entertained at a Hallowe'en dance Wednesday evening by the Modern'lone Bride Club. The home of M'ss H. Barrett was the scene of the offa'r. The house was beautifully decorated in Hallowe'en colors. A jolly time was had by al'. . .

'A MILLION BID' THE MOSQUE
ATTRACTION NEXT WEEK ...
Those who have seen Dolores Costello in "The Sea Beast," 'When a Man Loves,' or "The Third Degree" will look for great things from her characterization in "A Million Bid" and their expectations will be gratified beyond their most extravagant dreams.
The story is that of a girl who is sold by her mother to the highest bidder; freed by a storm at sea from her husband and her mother and at last married to the young doctor who, letters her mother had intercepted.
This is but a bare outline of a story herling and big and authentic. Added to the fineness of the keting is the technical beauty of the picture. Everyone should see Dolores Costello in "A Million Bid" at the Mosque next week.

ANTICASTER
Milk is perhaps the most ideal food for a human being. It is our only food in infancy and a food too little used by adults. It has been called "the perfect food."
It is a food, however, that is hard to keep, for it suddenly spoils at too great a temperature.
We have preserved all other kinds of foods, we have salted fish, canned vegetables and fruit, canned meat and smoked ham.
In 1851 a man went to England with a meat biscuit he had invented. On the ship on which he traveled there were cows to give fresh milk. At that time most vessels resembled floating barnyards, that in, most vessels that pretended to give human comfort. The inventor observed on his return trip home in the summer that the cows were sea sick, the milk was bad and inhale died.
many issues most.
Chemists have beived a process of drying milk and canning it. After
much difficulty, the enterprise was successful.

children by Our own Mr. Strauss has proved himself a public benefactor by supplying pure milk for babies. Any trader in Europe is familiar with the dirty milk that is supplied everywhere from milkmen's cans. These have been replaced almost entirely in America by the bottle. Still about 6,000,000 children in the United States between the ages of two and fourteen are undernourished. They are stunted for lack of proper food, usually for lack of milk. The various companies handling milk have done much good by disseminating knowledge as to the value of pure milk. Pure milk has as much to do with preventing infant mortality as any other one thing. In China, years ago, when they had plenty of cows, they create a great civilization, now that they have cut down their forests and eat their cows they kill as many babies as they raise. You cannot bring up a child with success, on tea.

Those health departments in the various cities which are insisting ca pure milk and the companies which owe their success to the distribution of pure milk, deserve all encouragement. Nothing could be of more importance than they can provide a supply of pure milk.

They used everything in this campaign just closed but the religion of Jesus Christ. Colored folks had experienced the same kind of fighting before and they wrote "tickled to death" to see the white folks "mud slinging" a "each other."
How are the Hoover-crats who turned wrong side out to beat Smith. going $ \mathrm{t} $ turn right-side in to get in good and regular standing amongst their Democratic colleagues, who are st.ll "cussing" them? Surely, this is the $ \mathrm{e} $ question. Somebody must give the answer.
Governor Harry Flood Byrd has a most unenviable position. He must make concessions to some of his former associates who some or his present followers hate "worse than the devil."
Now is the time for colored people to organize politically and to keep organized, for they know not the day, week or month that they shall be wanted by either one side or the other in future contests, and then they will be badly wanted "and don" you forget it."
Governor Alfred E. Smith has been laid away. He announces that he has made his last bid for public office, although about thirteen million people elected to follow his banner to defeat. Of course Hon. Herbert Hoover is jubilant, over a five million majority, seventeen and one-half million votes and four hundred and forty-four votes in the electoral college.
ROANOKE LETTER
Union Revivals have been conducted in the churches here. The beginning was at Rev. Blake's Church Mrs. Crawley, an ordained minister at the Pitsburgh Conference preached at the Mt. Zion A. M. E. Church at 11 A. M. It was a wonderful message. Mrs. Anna Moyer, 131 15th St. S. W. died Monday, October 29 be 10:45 oclock after a lingering illness of six years. The funeral was held Wednesday. The body was delivered by Rev. A. J. James, assisted by Rev. J. W. Whitfield, who was present at the last moments of life. She died calmly in the full triumph of death. She was a member of Jerusalem Baptist Church. Rev. G. Jawous, pastor, took her in October 31, 1927.
Mrs. Henrietta Hoosier, Mr. John Moyer and Mrs. Mollie Clemmons wish to use this method in thanking their many friends for the kindness shown during the illness, demise and funeral of their loving mother, whose voice is silent in our home, and the chair is vacant, never to be filled. Well, we will meet dear mother some bright day. They also wish to thank the many friends for the use of their cars..

Thirteen years ago twelve leading physicians of my city treated me for
Kidney trouble and gravel, without the desired benefit. These doctors
advised me to be operated on, as that was the only chance for me. I was
advised to go and get some of L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicine and try be-
fore being operated on. I did so, and in twenty-four hours after using
his medicines, 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.

Instructions
(1)
Every homicide in Virginia in the absence of other evidence, is presumed to be murder in the second degree, and in order to elevate the offense to murder in the first degree, the burden of proof is upon the Commonwealth and in order to reduce the offense to manslaughter, or to show justification or excuse, the burden is upon the accused to introduce evidence to show extenuating circumstances, or justification, unless it appears from the evidence of the Commonwealth.
(2)
The Court instructs the jury that malice in law may be inferred from the use of a deadly weapon. (3)
The Court further instructs you that to constitute a willful, deliberate and premeditated killing, it is not necessary that the intention to kill should exist any particular length of time prior to the actual killing; it is only necessary that such intention should come into existence for the first time at the time of such killing.
The Court instructs the jury that the law of self-defense is the law of necessity and the necessity relied upon to justify a killing must not be out of the prisoner's own misconduct.
000' A1110
M.A.008

The Court instructs the jury that if they believe from the evidence that W. B. Burroughs, the accused killed Sharpe under a reasonable belief that his own life was in danger and that such danger was imminent or that he was in danger of serious bodily harm, the facts and circumstances appeared to him at the time, he was excusable in so doing, although such danger was unreasonable. The question for the jury in this case was not whether the taking of the life of Sharpe might have been safely avoided, but whether the accused under the circumstances might reasonably have believed and did believe, it was necessary to shoot him if did resulting in the death of Sharpe, in order to save his own life or avoid serious bodily harm; and in that event the jury should find the accused not guilty. The jurors are instructed that if they believe from the evidence that the accused started firing at the deceased in self-defense, then they are further instructed that the accused had a right to continue to shoot at the deceased as long as it reasonably appeared to him from his standpoint that there was still danger of losing life or suffering serious bodily harm at the hands of the deceased. The accused is to be judged by the circumstances and conditions as they reasonably appeared to him at the table.
(6)
It was not necessary that such danger did in fact continue to exist provided we believe from all the evidence that it reasonably appeared to the defendant from his standpoint that each danger continued to exist. (7)
The Court instructs the jury that if they believe from the evidence that they recused was discharging what he nably believed to be a lawful duty and engaged in a lawful act, he did not retreat, but may rapel force his defence if need be to the extent of saving his adversary. This is justifiable defense.
(8)
in this connection, the Court tells you that if they believe from the evidence that Officer Burroughs approached James Sharp) for the purpose of arresting him and informing him that he was a police officer then as the duty of the said James Sharp to submit to the officer even when Sharp had committed no crime and the officer had no just reason for arresting him as a

The Court instructs the jury that an officer in the performance of his duty as such stands on an entirely different footing from an individual,
(1)
This is the law.
(2)
This is the law.
(3) This is the law.
(4)
This is the law. Did the alleged necessity to kill James Sharp arise out of the prisoner's (W. B. Burrough's) own misconduct? By his own sworn testimony, stenographically reported it did. Legally, he could not get on James Sharp's premises without violating Article 1. Section 10 of the Constitution of Virginia. This was misconduct on his part. He had neither a general warrant nor a search warrant. He were citizen's clothes and he did not display his badge. Section 23 of the State Prohibition Act reads:
23. WHEN OFFICERS MAY BREAK
AND ENTER HOUSES
If any house, building, boat car
or other, place as in herein before
mentioned, the sale, offering, storing
or exposing for sale of ardent spirits
is carried on clandestinely, or in such
manner that the person or persons
engaged therein cannot be seen or
identified by the officer or officers
charged with the execution of a warrant,
under any section of this act
any such officer may, whenever it is
necessary for the arrest or identification
of the person or persons offending,
or or selzing such ardent spirits,
break open and enter such house,
building, boat, car or place, or any
room or part of any of them. (Code
Section 4619: Id. Section 29. )
(5)
This is the law, but it is applicable to a legal arrest made elsewhere than in a citizen's own home, where a citizen is surrounded by the guarantees of the Constitution of Virginia and those of the Constitution of the United States, which entitle him to protection in his Life, liberty and pursuit of happiness "with none to molest him or make him afraid." H's and G. and M. p. 85 says "if the party slaying made the first assault he must quit the combat and retreat as far as he safely can." .....
"Nothing herein contained shall be construed to permit the issuance of general warrants whereby an officer may be commanded to search suspected places without evidence of a fact committed, or to seize any person or persons not named or whose offense is not particularly described and supported by evidence." (Code Section 4612: 1916 p 215; 1918 p 577, Section 22).
(6)
This is the law.
(7)
This is the law.
(8)
This is the law. See Article 1
Section 10 and H's G. and M. p.
95.
(9)
This is the law. It is also the law that a citizen who has committed no crime and who has not been suspected of having done so by any evidence present or implied and who is resting quietly after night-fall and after a day of honest toll as such stands on an entirely different footing from an individual who has habitually violated the law.... Section 17. "It shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to resist, impede, or obstruct, or in any manner to hinder or delay any legal officer having in his hands any search warrant, issued by any officer of this State having the right to issue the same, under the provisions of this act, in the execution of such warrant. Any person so resisting, impeding, obstructing, or in any way hindering or delaying any officer in the execution of a legal search warrant in his hands shall be guilty of a misdemeanor." (Code Section 4614 Id. Section 23.1.2.)
( C
He is a minister of justice and is therefore entitled to the peculiar protection of the law and the respect of citizens as such.
(11)
The Court instructs the jury that in order to convict the accused as charged in the indictment, the evidence must not only be consistent with the guilt of the accused, but it must be inconsistent with every reasonable hypothesis of the innocence of the accused, and if said evidence is consistent with any reasonable hypothesis of his innocence, then they must find him not guilty.
(12)
No amount of suspicion of guilt, however grave or strong, is sufficient to find a verdict. Nor is it sufficient that the evidence shows a preponderance in favor of guilt, the burden being upon the Commonwealth to prove every necessary element of the crime charged beyond a reasonable doubt,—and if after consideration of all the facts and circumstances in this case, you have a reasonable doubt as to any of these matters, it is your duty to give the accused the benefit of such doubt and acquit him.
The Court instructs the jury that in order to entice the accused to an acquittal on the ground of self-defense, the accused is required to sustain his plea of self-defense only to the point that the evidence in support of it when considered along with the other evidence in the case raises in the minds of the jury a reasonable doubt of his guilt.

James Sharp, a respectable, hard working colored man was killed by Officer Walter B. Burroughs in his (Sharp's) own home August 3, 1928.
Sharp had committed no crime and Burroughs had no warrant for his arrest or warrant to search his premises.
Burroughs was chasing boys (juveniles) who are under the Juvenile Department of Virginia and subject to trial for offenses only in the Juvenile Court here, presided over by Judge J. Hoge Ricks. These boys had committed no crime. They were seen loitering on a corner and when spoken to ran from the officers.
Burroughs mistook James Sharp, a man fifty years of age for a boy, William Branch and he killed Sharp. He admitted he beat him with a blackjack and shot him three times inside of Sharp's own house, the length of a room from the entrance.
Burroughs was in citizen's clothes. He did not display his badge of authority and he did not read a warrant to James Sharp. It was too dark to see a badge and he had no warrant with him to read.
What do the liberal minded white citizens think of this happening and what will they do about it?

Before killing, the accused must have retreated as far as he conveniently and safely can, in order to avoid the assault, and that not to invite a continuance of the assault, but from a real tenderness of shedding human blood. But in his own house one need not retreat, but the assault, as in other cases, must be immediately dangerous. If the party slaying made the first assault, he must quit the combat and retreat as far as he safely can. Otherwise no necessity will make the killing excusable, even though retreat is made impossible by the adversary's fierceness. He cannot allege a necessity, which he himself wrongfully occasioned.
This is the law that did not go to the jury in the Walter B. Burroughs' case, the accused being charged with killing James Sharp after he had invaded his home in search of a juvenile, who admittedly had committed no crime and for whom he had no warrant, and in a house, for which he had no search warrant. Burroughs was acquitted.

This is the law and it might be added that W. B. Burroughs, according to his own statement was a minister of injustice and by his own illegal act was not entitled to the peculiar protection of the law and the respect of citizens as such. But this was a question for the jury to decide and it was decided in the light of the information before them.
This is the law. W. B. Burroughs statement, stenographically reported will clear up this phase of the situation. The specific provisions of the State Prohibition Law settle it. Here it is:
"If there be no complaints on oath that ardent spirits are being manufactured, sold, kept, stored or in any manner held, used or concealed in a particular house or other place, in violation of the law, the justice of peace, police justice, circuit or city judge and mayor of any city or town to whom complaint is made, if satisfied that there is reasonable cause for such belief, shall issue a warrant to search such house or other place, the property of a public service corporation such warrant shall describe with reasonable certainty the baggage, container or package to be searched.
"If any person shall knowingly and wilfully make any false complaint under this section, he shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and fined not less than $50 nor more than $500 for each offense.
This is the law. The preponderance or evidence was overwhelmingly against Burroughs, not being even supported by the testimony of his Brother Officers, for they were not present at the time of the tragedy.

The body of the "unknown soldier" lies buried in Arlington, at the Nation's Capitol, and on Armistice Day our thoughts are inevitably directed toward this symbol of the great struggle through which this country passed—the grave of the man of whom nothing is known save that he gave his all in a common cause. Wealthy or poor, proud or humble, artist or laborer, of whatever faith he may have been, his grave is for all time a shrine to those who love our country. He died that others might live—he served his land no more, and is known of him to
NEW YORK-Afternoon tea for the nation's workers has become good business.
Scores of manufacturers and merchants throughout the country have already begun the practice of speeding up flagging production by recourse to the tea cup, while hundreds of other employers have signified their intention of adopting the custom.

"The expense attached is negligible, since a pound of tea leaves yield enough tea to provide a cup for from 300 to 350 persons at a cost of less than a third of a cent a cup. As an investment in 'pea' the practice pays for itself many times over, as well as to increase earnings."

BOMBAY, INDIA.—For ages the natives of India have regarded the fearful harvest of death by venomous serpents as a visitation of fate. Poisonous snakes, principally the deadly cobra, are credited with more than twenty thousand deaths annually. Apart from the deaths and suffering to humans there are large houses in domestic animals. "And because the snake is regarded as an object of veneration by the natives there has been no practical attempt to destroy these traditional enemies of mind. The 'alpina karung' so the snake is called in India has been
Today for the first time, there is a converted movement upon snakes. Dame fashion, in her search for the beautiful and the bizarre has found a commercial use for the snake and importers are now taking about two million snake hides out of India annually. The varieties include cobras, water snakes, boa constrictors and pythons. The skins of the smaller "alpina karung" are used in the manufacture of fancy shoes, portraits, bill folds, belts, and caves; the larger snakes are also used for these purposes and in addition furnish skins for the upholstery in expensive automobiles, furniture and milady's costumes.

Lochness has always been the lot of places in isolated communities, but it is doubtful whether any place in the Western Hemisphere can come with the little island of Tristan da Cunha—the "farthest outlying continent of the British Empire"—for complete isolation and detachment from the rest of the world. This island, the largest in a small group lying almost in the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean, on practically the straight line from Buenos Aires, is off the regular route of ocean-going vessels, and is rarely visited except by an occasional cruising liner. Last year the Empress of France on her South-American-Africa Cruise touched at Tristan and landed supplies and drinkets as gifts from the past.

An alpina karung coat brings as high as $1,000. A few weeks ago one of the leading New York department stores advertised snake skin slippers at "reduced prices" of $12 a pair. But whatever the price the buyer is insured of almost life long durability. So great is the demand for snake skin that the snake farm in Brazil is being copied in Switzerland and India.

Thousands of women each year

handicap for eternal youth.
They may doctor their birth certificates, cometize the illusion of perpetual girth into their withering cheeks, and patronize the "Misses Department" of their favorite dress shop. Yet, their advancing years will be an open secret unless they start in early to keep their necks young. To avoid the scrawny throats or double chins with which the year mark their passing, who value their youthful appearances should base the care of their necks on an understanding of just how the muscles can be strengthened by the proper daily massage and the skin nourished by the right oils and dreams.
The muscles of the neck extend downward from the base of the brain. Hence, to exercise them properly, the hands should follow their own routes in massaging the average neck. there are but two fundamental movements. First, stroke from the chin and the sides of the cheeks downward with the flat part of the hand. In cases of thick or shapeless necks, vary this with a deep-wringing movement. Second, with the backs of the hands rigid, slap the flesh under the chin briskly first with one hand, then the other. Do each of these movements at least twenty-five times a day. In selecting the proper creams and oils for the neck early in the same rules of selection you if later in making them for your face. With of course on the skin in a good cleaning cream. Upon this cleaned surface擦干 the skin around the neck and the hands.

LINCOLN'S SHORT LETTER.
"ONLY A COLD."
Mrs. E. S. Dodge dies leaving one million, Nineteen thousand dollars to friends, $5,000 to a Presbyterian church, the balance to relatives. Five thousand dollars out of $1,000,000 given to the Lord seems small. In old days, when heaven and hell were taken more literally, it would have been thought wise to give $900,000 of the $1,000,000 to religion and make sure of salvation.
But in this agnostic day many feel that the Lord does not need money, especially as He could create any amount of it by an easy miracle, whereas relatives and educational institutions DO need money, and can't perform miracles.
That a son is born to Princess Michael Cantacuzene in Chicago means to the average, but a great deal to a few old men of the Grand Army, who know that Princess Cantacuzene is General Grant's grand-daughter.
The only immortality of which we are certain, apart from the certainty of religious faith, is the immortality of our descendants. Each may live for thousands of years in his descendants. You that read this are descended from that were alive on earth 500,000 years ago.
What our descendants will be we cannot guess.
General Grant, before opportunity came and people wondered why he didn't keep "sober," little thought that would be the great-great-great-great of a son of a Russian prince.
Descendants of Astors, Vandellits and Rockefellers will beg their bread a thousand years before it begging still prevails.
Descendants of Jhenghis, Timur and Attila are among Mongolian laborers now scattered through Asia.
The Triennial Protestant Episcopal Convention in Washington is urgently requested to recognize faith cures. In such cures the patient helps himself by believing that someone else will help him. Faith can do many things. A man was bound to a chair, his feet put in hot water and told that his feet would be cut by a razor. The back of a razor was drawn across the soles of his feet. Not a drop of blood was shed, but he died What can kill can cure. Some doctors wisely believe that faith healing should be used to help nervous patients.

So far, the use of liver in this condition is still in the experimental stage; next year we may find that we were mistaken—it's so easy to eat, you know.
Fifty years ago the rural dwellers in some of our Atlantic states made "dried liver" a part of their winter store of food foods—and they regarded it as a delicacy—even an essential to a well-kept pantry. Dried same as we cure dried beef. And, we know those old fellows lived out a goodly term of years, for some reason or other; they must have lived pretty sane.
Modern science has gone so far as to advise liver, to be used much as medicine for anaemia. Even an attempt at accurate dosage has been made—and some very favorable results recorded. I have had no practical experience in this new procedure, but, when I see an article in a reliable medical publication, I read it carefully. You might, with benefit, do the same; there are yet many things to learn.
More than a year ago, I purchased a preparation called "liver substance" to be used hypodermically for high blood pressure, which it was claimed could be reduced promptly by its use. As I could not find out exactly how the substance acted after injection, I was so very slow about trying it, that I knew the stuff on hand to this very documents do not appeal to
strongly—perhaps I'm over us

Hints for the Home by Nancy Hart
Have you seen the new toilet accessories that are developed in colors as fresh and dainty as those of the fabrics that drape the modern bedroom?
There are mirrors and brushes, beauty boxes and manicure tools in soft tints and patterns. Some reproduce the Chinese motifs of old Ming porcelains and lacquers; others show Empire designs and colorings, and again others have floral designs.
Imagine the charm of accessories of Napoleon blue in a French pattern on a dressing table flounced in changeable taffeta. Or picture the Chintz-hung room with toilet articles in soft blue or buff, green or mauve, according to the color of the draperies! These are just a few of the decorative effects that may be obtained with the new toilet ware which, relatively speaking, is far from expensive.

On Second Million--Trees,
Not Dollars!
A J. Hummel, "tree farmer" of
Millville, Pa., likes to see 'em grow.
He is a lumberman, but unlike lumbermen of a quarter century ago, he is also a conservationist and has given considerable study to the forestry problem.
About 20 years ago he started getting out trees on a small scale. Hundreds of thousands have been trees of the rapid-growing type, for use as timber. Other hundreds of thousands have been walnut, slow in growth, but making up in value for the delay, so that Hummel has laid the groundwork of a fortune for himself or perhaps his children.
A score or more of abandoned farms have been set out in trees by this lumberman. His holdings are spread through half a dozen counties. This year alone he set out more than 200,000 trees. Of these he obtained 102,000 from the Pennsylvania department of forest and waters.

"Very Latests"
By Cecile
'Tis just as important to have one's hair dressed smartly as it is to be correctly gowned. So why not "Very Latest" coiffures for a change?
All who are of the type to wear it note this coif worn by CARMEN MORALES. Shubert's star in 'Girl' is a most popular affection of the younger girl who are "letting it grow". When her hair is a bit longer, Carmen will certainly twist it into the new double-knot that reminds us of romantic Southern beauties.
While the vivacious young damels are busy featuring long hair dresses, the older girl clings to the bob which, we must admit, does create the illusion of youth for her. Bobs are longer now, however, waving softly to follow the head and melting into the outline of the neck instead of being clipped away from
Hats for Long Hair
And what do they do about hairs when they wear long hair? Well, so far it isn't so easy—but at least one or two new models have been designed to fit neatly on the knob of hair nesting low on the neck. The drooping side brim is often trimmed off so that the knot of hair may show itself to nice advantage without being ruffled by the brim.
Piquant Peplums
Many evening frocks show quite dashing interpretations of the peplum. Tulle frocks lend themselves beautifully to the piquant use of this material, and similarly, the peplum may be gathered under a tight shape hip yoke—one side trailing almost to the ground; the other side extremely short.
Krimmer Cloth Is Smart
Long time since we've seen coats of krimmer cloth, but they are "in" again. One smart, Scotch-looking model on Fifth Avenue possessed a short black krimmer jacket worn over a plaid krimmer. Gray krimmer over matching gray cloth is also shown.

THE LAST OF THE DUANES by ZaneGrey Illustrated by Verne C.Christy
Second Installment
WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE
BACK IN REAL quick on the draw, kills Cal Bain in self-defense and finds himself an outlaw. Flying from pursuit, he meets Luke Stevens, another innovator and the two bees who narrowly escapes capture and Duane is shocked to find his brother outlaw severely wounded.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
"Teller's name was Brown. Me'an him fell out over a boss I stole from him over in Huntsville. We had a shootin' scrape then. Wal, as I was straddlin' my back back in Mercer I seen this Brown an' seen him before he seen me.
"Could have killed him, too. But I wasn't breakin' my word to you. I kind of hoped he wouldn't spot me. But he did—'an'快 shot he got me here. What do you think of this hole?
He's pretty bad," replied Duane, and it could not look the cheerful outlaw in the eyes.
"I reckon it is. Wal, I've had some bad wounds I lived over. Guess mebble I can stand this one. Now, Buck, get me some place in the brakes—leave me some grub an' water at my hand—'an then you clear out."
"Leave you here alone?" asked Duane sharply.
"Shore. You see, I can't keep up with you. Brown an' his friends will foller us across the river a ways. You've got to think of number one in this game."
"What would you do in my case?" asked Duane curiously.
"Wal, I reckon I'd clear out an' save my hide," replied Stevens. Duane felt inclined to doubt the outlaw's assertion. For his own part he decided his conduct without further speech.
First, he watered the horses, filled caves and water-bag, and then tied the buck upon his own horse. That done he lifted Stevens upon his horse, and holding him in the saddle, turned into the brakes, being careful to pick out hard or grassy ground that left signs of tracks.
All that night Duane, gloomy and thoughtful, attentive to the wounded outlaw, walked the trail and never halted till daybreak. He was tired then, and very hungry. Stevens seemed in bad shape, though he was still spirited and cheerful. Duane made camp. The outlaw refused food, but asked for both whisky and water. Then he stretched out.
"Buck, will you take off my boots?" he asked with a faint smile on his pauid face.
Duane removed them, wondering if the outlaw had the thought that he did not want to die with his boots on. "Pard, you—stuck—to me!" the outlaw whispered.
Duane caught a hint of gladness in the voice — he traced a faint surprise in the haggard袋. Stevens seemed like a little child.
To Duane the moment was sad, elemental, big with a burden of mystery he could not understand.
Duane buried him in a shallow arroyo and heaped up a pile of stones to mark the grave. That done he saddled his comrade's horse, hung the weapons over the pommel, and mounting his own steed he rode down the trail in the gathering twilight.
Presently the trail widened into a road, and that into a kind of square lined by a number of adobe and log buildings, of rudest structure. Within sight were horses, dogs, a couple of steers, Mexican women with children, and white men, all of whom appeared to be doing nothing.
His advent created no interest until he rode up to the white men, who were lying in the shade of a house. This place evidently was a store and saloon, and from the inside came a hazy hum of voices.
As Duane reined to a halt one of the longers in the shade rose with a loud exclamation.
"Bust me if they ain't Luke's boss!" The others accorded their interest, if not assent, by rising to advance toward Duane.
"How about it, Euchre? Ain't thet Luke's bay?" queried the first man.
"Plain as your nose," replied the fellow called Euchre.
"There ain't no doubt about that then" laughed another, "fer Bosomer's nose is shore plain on the landscape."
These men lined up before Duane, and as he cooly regarded them he thought they could have been recognized anywhere as desperatees.
The man called Bosomer, who struck out in advance of the others, was a hardlooking customer, with yellow eyes and an enormous nose. He had sandy hair and a skin the color of dust.
"Stranger, who are you, an where did you git thet bay hoss?" he demanded.
His yellow eyes took in Steven's horse, then the weapons hung on the saddle, and finally turned their glinting, hard light upward to Duane.
"My name's Duane," replied Duane curtly.
"An how'd you come by the hose?"
Duane answered briefly, and his
Buck Duene Outlaw
words were fled "wiped by a short silence, during which the men looked at him. Bosomer began to twist his bearded tips.
"Reckon he's dead all right, or nobody'd he his boss an' guns," said Euchre.
"Mr. Duane," began Bosomer, in low, stinging tones, "I happen to be Luke Steven's side pardner."
Duane looked him over, from dusty, worn-out boots to his slouchy sombrero. That look seemed to inflame Bosomer.
"An' I want the hoss an' them guns," he shouted.
"You or anybody else can have them for all I care. I just fetched them in. But the pack is mine," replied Duane. "And say 'I befriended your pard. If you can't use a civil tongue you'd better cinch it."
"Civil! Haw! Haw!" rejoined the outlaw. "I don't know you. How do we know you didn't plug Stevens, an stole his hoss, an' jest happened to stumble down here?"
"You'll have to take my word, that's all." replied Duane sharply.
"Stranger, Bosomer is shore hot-headed," said the man Euchie. He did not appear unfriendly, nor were the others hostile. The structure several more outlaws crowded out of the door, and the one in the lead was a tall man of stal-
Buck Dua
wart physique. His manner proclaimed him a leader.
He had a long face, a flaming red beard, and clear cold blue eyes that laced in close scrutiny upon Duane. He was not a Taxon; in truth Duane did not recognize one of these outlaws as native to his State.
"I'm Bland," said the tall man authoritatively, "Who're you and what's you doing here!"
Duane looked at Bland as he had at the others. This outlaw chief appeared to be reasonable, if he was not courteous. Duane told his story again, this time a little more in detail.
"I believe you," replied Bland at once. "Think I know when a fellow's lying."
"I reckon you're on the right trail," put in Euchre. "Thet about Luke wantin' his boots took off—thet satisfies me. Luke had a mortal dread of dyn'in with his boots on."
At this sally the chief and his men laughed.
"You said Duane—Buck Duane?" queried Blank. "Are you a son of that Duane who was a gun-fighter some years ago?" "Yes." replied Duane.
"Never met him, and glad I didn't," said Bland with a grim humor. Bosomer appeared at the door, pushing men who tried to detain him, and as he jumped clear of a last reaching hand he uttered a snarl like an angry dog. Manifestly the short while he had spent inside the saloon had been devoted to drinking and talking himself into a frenzy. Bland and the other outlaws quickly moved aside, letting Duane alone. When Bosomer saw Duane standing motionless and watchful, a strange change passed quickly in him. He lailed in his tracks, and as he did that the men who had followed him out piled over each other in their hurry to get to one side. Duane saw all the swift action, felt intuitively the meaning in it, and in Bosomer's sudden change of front. The outlaw was keen, and he had expected a shrinking or at least a frightened antagonist.
But Duane did not speak a word. He had remained motionless for a long moment, his eyes pale and steady, his right hand like a claw.
That instant gave birth in Duane a power to read in his enemy's eyes the thought that preceded action. But he did not want to kill another man; he did not intend to. When Bosomer's hand moved Duane's gun was spouting fire, and Bosomer fell with his right arm shattered. He would never be able to draw a gun again.
When Dfane went out with Euchre the sun was setting behind a blue range of mountains across the river in Mexico. The valley appeared to open to the southwest.
"The only feller who's goin' to put
a close eye on you is Benson," said Euchre. "He runs the place six drinks. The gang calls him Jackabbit Benson because he's always got his cup peeled an' his ear cocked. Don't notice him if he looks you over. Book." "Benson is scared to death of every newcomer who rustles into Blanc camp. An' the reason, I take it, is because he's done somebody dirt. He's hidin'. Not from a sherif or range! Men who hide from them don't like Jackabbit Benson. "He's hidin' from gue who huntin' him to kill him. Wal, I'm always expected to see some teller title in can't see three guns on Benson. Can't say I'd be grieved." "What have you against him?" inquired Duane, as he sat down beside Euchre.
"Wal, mebbe I'm cross-grained." replied Euchrepte aphetically. "Shoes an outlaw an ruster such as me can't be touchy. But I never stole nothin' but cattle from some rancher who never missed 'em, anyway. The sneak Benson—he was the means of puttin' a little girl in Bland's way." "Girl?" queried Duane, new with real attention. "Bland's great on women. I'll tell you about this girl when we get out of here. Some of the gang are goin' to be sociable, an' I can't talk about the chief."
ne, Outlaw
During the ensuing half hour a number of outlaws passed by Duane and Euchre, halted for a greeting, or sat down for a moment. They were all graffu, loud-voiced, merry, and goodnatured. Duane replied civilly and agreeably when he was personally addressed, but he refused all invitations to drink and gamble.
Evidently he had been accepted, in a way, as one of their clan. No one made any hint of an allusion to his affair with Boocher. Duane saw readily that Euchre was well liked. One outlaw borrowed money from him; another asked for tobacco.
Next morning Duane found that a moody and despondent spell had fastened on him. Wishing to be alone, he went out and walked a trail leading around the river bluff. He thought and thought.
When he returned to the shack Euchre was cooking dinner
"Say, Buck, I've news for you," he said, and his tone conveyed either pride in his possession of such news, or pride in Duane. "Feller named Bradley rod in this mornin'. He'd heard some about you.
"Told about the ace of spades they put over the bullet holes in that cow-puncher Bain you plugged. Then there was a rancher shot at a water-bottle twenty miles south of Wollston. Reckon you didn't do it?" "No, I certainly did not," replied Duane.
"Wal, you get the blame. It ain't nothin' for a feller to be saddled with gun-play he never made. An', Buck, if you ever get famous, as seems likely, you'll be blamed for many a crime. The border'll make outlaw an murder out of you. . . Wal, that's enough of thet. I've more news. You're goin' to be popular."
"Popular? What do you mean?" "I met Bland's wife this mornin', She seen you the other day when you rode in. She shore wants to meet you an so do some of the other women in camp. They always want to meet the new fellers who've just come in. It's lonesome for women here an' they like to hear news from the towns." "Well, Euchel, I don't want to be impolite, but I'd rather not meet am women," rejoined Duane. "I was afraid you wouldn't. Don't blame you much. I was hopin', though, you might talk a little to the poor lonesome kid." "What kid in! inquired Duane, in surprise." "Didn't I tell you about Jennie—the girl Bland's holdin' here—the one Jackrabbit Benson had a hand in stealin'!" "You mentioned a girl. That's all, Tell me now," replied Duane. "All

TRADICTED FACT
Something in the nature of a sensation has been created here by a report that Ben Faulcon, who died during the month of October 1928 had received sick benefits at $7.00 (seven dollars) per week for 144 consecutive weeks from the Union Life Insurance Company of Virginia, while other insurance companies stop paying sick benefits after (13) thirteen weeks. A visit to the Main Office in this city, at the Law Building, Eighth and Main Streets elicited the following information.
Ben Faulcon, 1310 West Clay Street drew sick benefits of $7.00 per week on an Accident and Health Policy in this Company on which he paid a premium of 35 cents per week from January 4, 1926 to and including October 9, 1928, a period of 144 weeks. He took out this policy January 12, 1925 and up to the time of his death had received ($1008) One Thousand and Eight Dollars in sick dues. From the time of receiving his first week's sick dues up to the time of his death he had paid weekly premiums to the Union Life Insurance Company of Virginia only $68.25 for

The remarkable part about this insurance and good judgment shown by Ben Fauicon is demonstrated in the fact that when he was well and able to work, he took out an Accident and Health Policy that paid $7.00 per week on which he paid 35 cents per week and a Straight Life Policy at 24 cents per week that paid $335.00 at death. When he was taken sick and could not earn any money, he was able to deduct 35 cents and 24 cents or 59 cents per week out of his sick benefits of $7.00 per week, leaving
