THE RICHMOND PLANET VIRGINIA APR 6 1929 STATE LIBRARY SEGREGATION PLEA U.S. COURT Judge D. Lawrence Groner to Hear Case in Norfolk VOLUME XLVI, NO. 21 Judge April 25th The promised attack on Richmond's recently adopted segregation ordinance opened March 29th, when a petition for J. B. Deans, Negro, was filed in the United States District Court here asking for an injunction to restrain the city from enforcing the ordinance which forbids Negroes occupying residences in blocks occupied by a majority of white persons. The petition sets forth that the ordinance unlawfully and unreasonably discriminates against your complainant on account of his race and color in the use of said house as a residence for himself and his said family, and the said ordinance operates to unlawfully segregate Negro from the white race in the use, occupancy and enjoyment of places or residences in the City of Richmond. The residence mentioned is a house and let at 633 North Twenty-seventh Street, purchased March 26th from Joshua R. Griffin the record states. A majority of those on the block are persons whom Griffin is forbidden to marry under the racial integrity act of Virginia. Approved last February 15th, the ordinance in its title refers to the act to preserve the racial integrity passed in 1924. A fine of not less than $100 nor more than $500 "recoverable before the police justices of the city of Richmond as the case may be, each day's violation to constitute a separate offense" is provided in the ordinance. The ordinance itself sets forth "That in order to preserve the general welfare, peace, racial integrity, morals and social good order of the city of Richmond, it shall be unlawful for any person to use as a residence any building on any street, between intersection streets, where the majority of residences on such street are occupied by those with whom said person is forbidden to intermarry by Section 5 of an Act of the General Assembly of Virginia, entitled: "An act to preserve racial integrity, existing at the time of the passage of this ordinance in any person, to use any such buildings as a residence." The petition for Deans as filed by Alfred E. Cohen and J. R. Polard, attorneys, further sets forth that "your complainant is entitled to have an order from this honorable court enjoining and restraining the said defendants, its, or their servants, agents and employees from intercourse or otherwise molesting your complainant in the enjoyment and use of his said house or building as a residence for himself and family." Cites Fourteenth Amendment The bill further contends that "the said ordinance is unreasonable and void as to your complainant as it contravenes his right under the fourth amendment of the Constitution of the United States and the laws of the United States. That your consent entails relief for relief hereunder particularly, upon Section 1 of the fourth amendment which provides as follows: "No State shall make or enforce any law which abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States, nor shall any State deprive any persons of life and liberty and property, without due process of law, nor deny to any persons within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law." Another citation in the petition for an injunction is to acts of Congress in title 8, chapter 3, sections 41 and 42. This latter provides that "property rights of United States citizens—all citizens of the United States shall have the same right in every State and territory as is enjoyed by white citizens thereof, to inherit, purchase, lease, sell, hold and convey real estate and personal property." It is argued in the petition that "complainant's property right in said house is not limited to owning, leasing, and selling same, but includes his right to use same himself as a residence." It also is argued that since the white population of Richmond is more than twice the colored population that under the ordinance "power is given the white race to carve places of residence for complainant which renders said ordinance unreasonable and void under the Federal Constitution and laws aforesaid." City's Appearance Called For The bill asks the court to direct the city to appear in answer to the allegations contained in the petition. Action is directed against the city of Richmond, a municipal corporation, J. Fulmer Bright, James R. Sheppard, Jr., R. B. Jordan and James E. Cannon, the four latter in their official capacity as Mayor, Director of Public Safety, Chief of Police and City Attorney of the city. It is addressed to Judge D. Lawrence Groner, of Norfolk, judge of the United States District Court here. At the time the ordinance was passed by Council, over the protests of representative organizations and newspapers in Richmond, it freely was predicted that the law was unconstitutional as had been a similar ordinance some years back. Before the ordinance was passed officially Negroes raised money to fight the expected law and retained counsel. For fine furniture, remember Charles G. Jurgens' Son. It will richly repay you to inspect the stock there before buying elsewhere. They all know him. They patronize him. They appreciate the service. A. D. Price, Jr., may be asleep, but there is always somebody there awake. 'Phone your orders and get service and the best kind of service. When it comes to eating and drinking, Edward Stewart is away in front. He has a large line of customers, both white and colored. His prices are reasonable and his groceries and supplies A-1. He studies to please. You may go on suffering, but you will find that it is all your fault. L. J. Hayden's remedies are there for the asking and just a little piece of money with the asking. His remedies have been tried out by a host of customers. No matter what your aliment, see him. He is also in the jewelry business and he repairs watches and clocks, just as he repairs the human frame with his medicines. Read his advertisement and call to see him or write to him. He does not sell whiskey. He sells medicines that are better than whiskey. They brace you up. "Millionare" J. W. Johnson, a former resident of this city but who is now living in Washington D.

He has been indisposed but is looking hale and hearty now RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, APRIL 6, 1929 "DICK" HASKINS FUNERAL Some excitement was occasioned by the funeral of Walter (Dick) Haskins, which took place Friday, March 29th, from his residence at 107 E. Federal St. He was dubbed by his neighbors, "a Jackson Ward boy" and he was given a great "send off". Funeral Director C. P. Hayes and charge of his remains. He was laid out in a suit of broadcloth with patent leather shoes and with an extensive fine metallic caskets with fine extension bar handles. Although the house was barred by electrical equipment a quiet battery supplied the electricity to give the refugient rays from an electric bulb which added to the magnificence of the floral display. Fine limousines completed the funeral outfit for the family and friends, while a steel vault was the receptacle for all that remained of Dick Haskins of Jackson Ward.

Leigh Street and Funeral Director Robert C. Scott, who employs Forcey and Funeral Director A. D. Price, Jr., were notified by certain parties. A police officer nabbed Forcey, alleging that he was going 35 miles per hour. Price's representative was making time also and he got the job. REV. DALY RESIGNS Rev. A. D. Daly, who has served as pastor of the Fifth Baptist Church for 16 years tendered his resignation recently and the same was accepted by the church last Monday night, effective April 28, 1929. His farewell sermon will be preached on that date. His friends expressed much regret at his action and many kind remarks concerning him were made at the church meeting by well wishers. MINISTER'S CONFERENCE BREAKS GROUND FOR NEW CEDAR STREET BAPTIST CHURCH The Ministers Conference of Richmond and vicinity met last Monday at Cedar Street Baptist Church. Rev. o. n. Roots, pastor. The meeting opened in the usual manner with the president, Dr. W. L. kansome presiding. The order of the day was a paper by kev. P. L. Lipscomb on the parable of the Barren Fig Tree. The paper was well prepared splendidly delivered and well received by the brethren. A committee of ladies served an appetizing repast after which the conference went in a body to the location of the New Cedar Street Baptist Church corner Mosby and P St. Several hundred people had assembled on the site which is beautifully located and on which Rev. Roots the energetic young pastor of the church proposes to erect a $200,000.00 edifice. Rev. Roots is to be commended for having successfully led and developed a small congregation to the point where it is willing to undertake the financing and maintenance of a modern church building. The members are standing loyally by their pastor and the future of the church seems exceptionally bright. Rev. Roots is a splendid preacher and his genial manner wins him many friends who are desirous of his success. The exercises opened as Rev. J. T. Crump read the first Hymn. Scripture was read by Rev. I. H. Hines after which a fervent prayer was offered by Rev. J. E. Fountain. The principal address was delivered by Rev. W. B. Ball, pastor of Good Will Church. At the close of which Rev. J. H. Binford led in singing a hymn of thanksgiving and praise. Rev. Roots then lifted the first shovelful of earth from the ground which is to be the future home of the Cedar Street Church. The occasion solemn and full of meaning, will no doubt long be remembered by the members and friends of the church as marking the first step toward the answering of oft repeated prayers. The Confidence of Rev. Roots and assures the good people of Cedar Street that we are watching their progress with interest. O. B. SIMMS, Reporter. JUDGE HADDON'S PREDICAMENT In the Police Court last Tuesday, a white man stood charged with an offense. Judge T. Gray Haddon remarked that he could not give the accused an impartial trial. He could give him a fair trial, but he did not wish to sit in the case. The man insisted that he wished Judge Haddon to try the case, but he declined so to do, directing the clerk to call up Judge H. A. Maurice, the South Richmond Judge and find out when he could come and hear the case. His Honor has inaugurated a system of bonding persons, both white and colored upon their own recognizance and it has had a most beneficial effect keeping many an individual from spending time in prison unnecessarily. Judge Haddon had witnessed the offense committed by the white man and knew all the facts. Judge Maurice fined him $50.00. EDEN BAPTIST CHURCH WOR SHIPS IN NEW EDIFICE IN PHILADELPHIA. The Eden Baptist Church held its third consecutive Sunday service in its new temple of worship 28th and Hamilton Streets' West Philadelphia on March 1st. The pastor Rev. J. Clinton Jr. preached both morning and evening to very appreciative audiences. Many visitors were present at each service. On Tuesday evening, March 26th the ideal Durham Evening Alumni League executed an excellent literary program in the main auditorium of the church under the direction of Mr. Charles B.

Of the large number who attended the exercises were several public school teachers of the city including Mrs. Henrietta R. Farrell principal of the James Logan Public School. 19th and Reed Streets where Mr. Clinton is also a teacher in the day school. The Eden Church gratefully acknowledges the splendid gift of money donated it by Miss Farrell, which came as a most pleasant surprise to pastor and people. A large lecture room adjoins the main auditorium of the church which aside from the mid-week services will be used as a civic meeting place when occasion arises. Through the good offices of the Rev.

RUSSELL The growth importance of radio programs desig with governmental, scientific, educational and informational subjects is recognized in the appointment of a new vice president for the National Broadcasting Company, to have headquarters in Washington. As a center of purely entertainment programs, New York has held—and will continue to hold—national leadership. For Broadway is still the Mecca of musical and dramatic talent. Recent months, however, have demonstrated an increasing public interest in programs broadening the field of radio service. More and more the people are demanding that this new medium of communication bring them not entertainment alone, nor even chiefly, but that it give them authoritative news and information on all important lines of effort. And for programs of that sort the national capital is the natural and logical center. The appointment of F. M. Russell, for the past six years assistant to the U. S. Secretary of Agriculture, as vice president of NBC with offices in Washington, means that radio is now to tap, as important sources for its future programs, the immense storehouses of fact and the experience and wisdom of notables in almost every line of endeavor, which are to be found at the capital. Typical of the programs that may be expected as a result of this closer contact with Washington sources is the series of talks by members of President Hoover's cabinet, which NEO is now presenting weekly. Not only will the public be given more intimate and direct contact with the leaders of their government and the trustworthy representatives for its policies, but will have field of industry, science and letters of interest and important people and events in every line of life—will be brought in parcel before NEC microphones. Russell, a product of the Middle West, as assistant first to Secretary Wallace and later to Secretary Jardine, had an active part in the development of Uncle Sams' varied agricultural radio services. In the job his skills are extended to serve as important line of national activity both in and out of government.

Great Lakes Tri These Are the Days By Albert T. Reid JOY NOTES FAIR AND WARMER HOW WONDERFUL WITH- OUT YOUR OVERCOAT FAW DOWN - GO BOOM BANG! ORIGINAL SHIMMY MEANING WHAT HE THINKS OF THE WEATHER MAN Travelers who love the water, but who cannot afford either the time or the money required for a voyage to Europe, should become acquainted with the Great Lakes—veritable land seas of romance and beauty, situated, comparatively speaking, at most which means two days of delightful streaming on the larger passenger ships. The few to ports for Great Lakes voyages are Port Erie in Ontario for travelers from New York and Port William or Port Erie for travelers from the West. Great Lakes Trip Provides An Ideal Two-Day Voyage SS. KEE WATIN AT FORT MENICOLL ON THE GREAT LAKES A YOUNG PASSENGER The west-bound traveler boards the Canadian Pacific lake steamer "Keewatin" or "Assinibola" and travels across Lake Huron, up the lovely St. Mary's River, out over Lake Superior—the greatest body of fresh water on this continent—to Port Arthur or Fort William. Out. This route is becoming increasingly popular with travelers from the Pacific Northwest, the Canadian Rockies and the Orient, for long train journeys, though a little faster, are liable to become monotonous, and the opportunity to break one's journey and exchange a railway car for the cool sweep of a promenade deck is rarely foregone by the experienced traveler. From Port McNicoll, westbound the trip is truly one of charm and delight. Morning finds the traveler at the head of Saulte Ste. Marie canal. After negotiating the canal, with its 21 foot drop, which is neutralized by a great system of sluice gates, the steamer slips out into Lake Superior, queen of inland waters. Soon a whale-back, a peculiarly-shaped cruised chiefly for the transportation of grain—comes into view. It is claimed that the entire fleet can carry 2,000,000 bushels of grain in one loading. Lake Superior is huge. It takes 16 hours steaming at full speed to reach Port William, one of the greatest grain ports in the world.

SATURDAY.....APRIL 6 1929 THE FIGHT BEGUN The fight on the Richmond Segregation Ordinance will be staged before Judge D. Lawrence Groner in Norfolk on the 25th inst. Should this distinguished jurist see fit to grant the injunction, an appeal will be taken by counsel for the city and should he decline to grant it, a similar course will be pursued by the plaintiffs. It appears now that all technicalities will be waived and the case will be heard upon its merits. It does not seem to us that the case should involve a prolonged struggle as the issue is as to whether or not the decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States applied to this shrewdly drawn ordinance. In the language of the legal fraternity, is it "on all fours" with the cases previously decided by the Supreme Court? Counsel for the plaintiff insist that it is. So far as we have been able to observe, the premises laid down by the plaintiff are as "clear as a crystal". It is needless to remark that the action is being taken and the petition drawn under and with the advice of counsel for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People of New York City. That great organization realizes that it affects much of the work already done and will have a far-reaching effect upon its future efforts in the securing of all of the rights and privileges for all classes of American citizens. There has been a growing delusion that if the rights and privileges of white people are cortailed and denied that the rights and privileges of colored people can be similarly denied with impunity. That is to say that if an innocent colored man is subjected to heinous punishment, he has no legal right to voice a complaint, if perchance there be a white man in the cell next to him subjected to similar injustice. The ridiculous nature of this position is evident upon its face. To deny white people their property rights is no just reason to deny colored people their property rights simply because white people do not come forward and voice their complaints and appear before the courts to make their complaints Servile submission to wrongs will always lead to the degeneracy of the person or people practicing, whether the race be white or black, civilized or uncivilized.

Today's Fashion Lines Are Inspired by Modern Living K You may think that Grandpa's checkered vest and Grandma's bulging bustle were inspired by a mere whim of fickle fashion. But they weren't! They were just the reflection, in masculine and feminine dress, of the gold rush, the invention of the "horseless carriage," the frost of 1878, and the Hayes-Tilden elections. Our fashions don't just happen. They're the direct result of the weather, and politics, international diplomacy, wars, and rumors of wars, according to Irene Miller, New York fashionist of Montgomery Ward & Co., who attended a conference of fashion experts gathered from all over the world at the Amos Parish Fashion Clinic. "Today's slim lines, vivid colors, geometric and funistic effects express the life we lead. They are just expresses of this great period of trades and daring of airplanes, international championships, world-fearless." Mrs. Miller said. "Paris originates fashion, but the smart women the world over, on Pitkin Avenue and Main Street alike, actually set the style. The fashion is the mode of the moment, and true style is the expression of the time and season. ROANOKE LETTER Rev. James S. Hatcher preached a very sermon sermon at Mt. Zion A. M. E. Church Sunday.

Helping everywoman find just the proper style in dress is the chief function of the style experts of the great mail-order house. "Style is a matter of season as well as the outcome of the trend of the times. It travels from section to section with each season's particular needs. "For instance, Palm Beach has romped all winter in beach suits, pajama ensembles, and sport frocks which in due season will be seen in the north, east, and west. Alken and Hot Springs, in the winter, are fire riding, golfing, and playing tennis in ensembles which will be climbing the Rockies and running the Adirondacks during the "season." New silk, vole, and garbeded prints expressed in one and two-piece ensembles are particularly favored for spring. Color accents of the new blues, greens, yellows and tawny reds are used to lend character to the soft tueses of tans and sunburn.

Down the years from the dark ages mankind has groped blindly for weapons with which to battle disease. Amazing progress has been made. The great plagues and scourges—yellow fever, small-pox, diphtheria, scarlet fever—have been conquered by medical science. In this battle of mankind against deathly germs sanitation played a vital part. This is particularly true as concerns the food supply. It accounts in large measure for the steadily falling mortality rate among children. "Malnutrition stuts the development of a child," says C. U.

Learn Go to Church on Sunday The moral delinquences of the younger generation and the indifference of the older people are due to the neglect of the Church and disregard of its fundamental teachings. The Sunday School is the seed of the Church. Children raised in idleness and sin will form the basis of corruption in the home in the government and in the nation. There is no power so potent to resist these evils as the Church of Christ. This is said regardless of the denomination for all of them teach the fundamental truths and endeavor to have their hearers as well as members practice them. A dollar invested in Church work will yield a hundred fold value to that invested anywhere else. CHURCH DIRECTORY MT. GILEAD BAPTIST CHURCH.

This was the case in Judah under king Ahaz. The worship of Jehovah was spurned and the people were led into idolatry, with the immoral conditions that attended such devotion. Isaiah's entreaties to turn to and trust in God had been ridiculed and the people were under heavy tribute to the king of Assyria. Meanwhile the Northern Kingdom, Israel, had about run its course and Assyrian captivity resulted. Hezekiah was the good son of a base father. Here is the signal instance of a child being superior to his environment, and pure in spite of all the fifth in home and community. All credit to the boys and girls of today who refuse to be dragged down to the level of unworthy parents, but when they make the most of advantages that are open to all, and make good in this world of keen competition. The king has learned much as regent and began his own reign at the age of 25. His life had been motivated by great fundamental principles. Jehovah was in reality king in his own life. The divine will was indicated in part in the sacred serols. Then there was Isaiah the prophet, as spiritual teacher and personal conscience to be reckoned with. Signs of lustful idolatry were everywhere, even in the temple. A general and thorough cleaning was undertaken. It began with the temple and extended throughout Jerusalem. People cooperated, for they were fully aware that recent open practises were destroying the spiritual and national life. Basic in the experience of religious life is the observances of ordinances established by the Almighty. The Passover had been neglected. Now the nations were called on to observe this meaningful feast, though a month later than the usual time. Invitations were sent to the ten tribes of Israel as well as to Judah and Benjamin. Many sorrowed the call but multitudes did attend. The law was studied with great care that the ritual might be exactly observed. Confessions of sin were simultaneous with the offering of sacrifices. Worship was the joy of the hour, and when the seven days prescribed for the Passover had been completed, the king and people realized in the declarations of their worship that a second period of service was reserved with added joy and benefit. As the people responded to their homes and daily life they had a personal consciousness of the meaning in our Golden Text: "Jehovah your God is gracious and merciful." Thus king Hesekiah led his people back to God. Anyone can be a leader, in fact all are, for each exerts unconscious as well as conscious intelligence. There are reforms within the ability of each one and we are individually responsible for undertaking them. The Sacrament of the Liturgy for the Christian, replacing the Jewish Passover, is the means for recognizing our purpose after new obedience, and to honor on the King's business. FIVE RISING MT.

HeartHeart TALK BY JOHN JOSPH GAINES, M.D. In earlier days, it was not at all unusual to find on the farm, a horse that was blind in one eye. There was a "blind side" to the animal. He was easier to lay hands on than the other horses, because of his defect; it was no trouble to get old Ben and put him to work, for you could sneak up to him on the blind side and clap the bridle on him. Otherwise, he seemed to get along as well as a horse with two good eyes. He was easier trapped, that's all. He was easier trapped, then. My sympathies went out to old Ben for that very reason. For, above everything else, I hate to be trapped—caught unawares. Many men have "blind sides," in spite of their two perfectly good eyes. Rogues sneak up and halter them, almost before they realize it. My sympathies went out to old Be above everything else, I hate to be Many men have "blind sides," in spite eyes.

Milady Beauty S By Helena Rul Whenever a fellow approaches me with a proposition that my conscience doesn't approve, and that my pocket-book doesn't quite harmonize with—and tries to talk me into his way of thinking, so he can get the halter on me, then I recall poor old Ben and his blind side. Over-zealous solicitors, political and commercial, work the blind side of their victims for all it will stand. Once the halter is on and buckled tight, how hard the driver's lash! How heavy the plough! For I have been caught on the blind side, and I know. So, my life-study thus far, has been to see all around me—to have no "blind side." Sometimes I get to thinking that my blindness has been cured—by experience; then some pussy-foot will slip up on me, but not so often—not so often. I shall delve after truth always, for truth makes men free. Light is the antidote for darkness. Mitady's Beauty Secrets By Helena Rubinslem Her gesture, motion and her smiles, Her wit, her voice my heart beguiles, Beguiles my heart; I know not why, And yet I love her till I die. —Anonymous The greatest determining factor of a beautiful mouth is your smile. A very wise and very kind man once said that "When the first baby smiled for the first time, it broke into a million pieces—and that was the beginning of fairies." not her mouth alone, but her whole face as well. We know from countless authorities that from wide observation that the is no face lifter so potent as smile—and STILL we don't smile. I can think of nothing more charming and nothing more logical, for the sweetness, the gentleness, the sheer beauty of a smile cannot help but be the basis of all lovely things. To be very scientific about it, let me tell you that Science claims—with solid proofs to substantiate the statement—that even the expression of your eyes is determined by your mouth. The eyes themselves, they say, are no more than reflectors—the "expression," as we call it, being caused by the muscles of eyelids and eye area which in turn depend upon the mouth muscles for their cue. In fact, so important are the unehued muscles of your mouth that they set in motion muscles as far removed as—the skull, above, and the collar bone below! We, judging only from exteriors, know that the mouth is the key to all facial expressions. We know that the good looking woman guards her mouth against the ageing droop which disfigures Eugene Wright, 24, A On Trip Acros Eugene Wright, 24, Author of "Great Horn Spoon," Starts On Trip Across the Sahara Desert to the Congo Basin **UGENE P.

J.**, author of "The Great Horn Spoon," a book of travels and impressions in Borneo, the Straits Salamanda, and Peru, left on Thursday for France to begin a two-year journey which will take him across the Sahara Desert to Lake Chad and thence to the Congo River Basin in Africa. Mr. Wright's journey will be made for the purpose of gathering material for two new books to be issued by his publishers, the Bobbs-Merrill Company of Indianapolis. Few young men. it is safe to say, have ever undertaken on their own responsibility to lengthen and hazard an exertion as that on which Mr. Wright is embarking. Aside from its general knowledge of their aridity little could be found about the more remote sections he will traverse. His object, Mr. Wright said before leaving, is not particularly to gather a recitative story of adventure but to study the elemental forces at play in the desert and jungles, and their influence on the lives and thought of the people. He plans contrasting books, one on the desert, where life struggles to exist, and another on the jungle, where life is abundant and competitive. Such a background, it was said yesterday, he hopes to be traversing the arid desert, with its antithesis in the humid mudroom his later goal. He also hopes to record the many progressive undertakings of the French rule both in North Africa and the Congo, and their successful and peaceful control of the vast intervening will be Mr. Wright's longest trip, for although but little past his twenty-fourth birthday anniversary, he has had considerable experience as a traveler in several of the world's little known regions.

We know from countless authorities and from wide observation that there is no face litter so potent as a smile—and STILL we don't smile—not half enough! A smile tones tired muscles. It catches them when they are drooping downward, and turns them about again, neutralizing bad effects, encouraging and cultivating good ones. It stimulates those same muscles forces them into action, and through this alone preserves the beauty and youth of healthy, animated tissues. Of course, if your muscles have lost their vitality, if the tissues are undernourished, wrinkled, permanently drooping, you need scientific corrective treatment. You need massage movements to lightly coax the muscles upward again, and you need rich, nourishing, with wrinkle cream to be patted in gently, night and morning, and left on over night if the condition is advanced.

While some say we know nothing about the life that is beyond there are many great truths that we can depend on as we join in the observance of this Easter Day, which commemorates the resurrection of the body of Jesus. Practically all religions reckon on a life in the future. The spirit in man is eternal and it is only the earthly body that die. Since each one must journey along this highway, regardless of his personal belief, it is with great interest that we turn to the Scripture references that are indicated for study today. They are Matthew 25:31-46 Mark 12:26-27; Luke 24:1-12; John 14:1-6; 1 Corinthians 15:32-20,50-58; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation 22:1-5. As you read these selections note the references in the margin and you will find many addition details. The events of that first Easter can be learned by reading the records in the Gospels. Certain women came early on the first day of the week to complete the embalming of His body, for there was not time for this after the entombing as the Jewish Sabbath began with sun down. They wondered how that heavy stone could be rolled back but God provided the way long before it was needed. We, too, are inclined to worry much about things that we service during the earthly life of Jesus and now a heavier angeler tells them that they are in the wrong place to accomplish their quest. No living soul has ever been entombed and it is useless to seek a person where there is only a dead body. Soon He appeared to them and to the disciples. peared to them in the upper room on the previous Thursday that He gave them most comforting truths and told them plainly of the future life. Read the entire discourse in John 14, 15, 16, and then follow through that comprehensive prayer in chapter 17. "Let not your heart be troubled" was supported by a statement of His purpose in their behalf. He would prepare a place and in time come for them. An expressive name for Heaven is the Home Land of the Soul. It is a place as well as a state. Conditions there are given under far-reaching similes in Revelation. Heaven will be blessed even because of what is not there. No pain in sorrow, separation, tears any more. "And they shall see His face," now add the positive elements of joy, service, worship and a clear conscience forever. In the Old Testament the lamb is a type of Christ. By as much He is greater than a lamb, by so much is Heaven beyond the types of golden streets and gates of precious stones. Our concern is to obey the Golden text: "Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give the crowns of Life."

Much Food Value L "Depends On the Much Food Value Lost in Cooking? "Depends On the Cookery"—Doctors Grandmother's huge iron pots and aacreage skillets had a good idea behind them, say the scientists and doctors who are now investigating at various universities and public health laboratories the problem of how much food value is lost in cooking. Loss of vitamins and minerals in preparing foods is one of the chief causes of two prominent modern ailments, anemia and malnutrition, and a series of studies of various types of modern cooking utensils to determine their effect on food is being collected by the Direct Selling Federation at Chicago, through the co-operation of university laboratories, departments of public health, and hospital clinics. Certain metals seem to preserve the vitamin and mineral values of food better than do others, preliminary reports show, and iron is one of them. Fortunately aluminum and one or two recent modern favorites have the same properties, states the report by Dr. Herman N. Bundesen, retiring president of the American Public Health association, for otherwise grandmother's grand-daughter would be out of luck with the light-weight, streamline models of utensils she is obliged to use in her city apartment or kitchenette cabinet instead of the sea-going kettles and army-size pans of grandmother's day. Such foods as vegetables in aluminum cookers is one of the best methods to use" says Dr. Bundesen, "since it prevents loss of vitamins and minerals." This is probably related to the fact that "a small amount of aluminum is always present in the human tissues normally," he says, "and it is evident that this element must be taken into the body in some amount in the food." Their respects to "certain faddists and propagandists" were paid by Dr ```markdown ``` Salad Eileen Down in a Submarine, Underneath the Sea, With a Trusty Radio It's Pleasant as Can Be! Cut! The S.

Cooped in cramped quarters in these diving boats, amid a maze of machinery, the officers and crew of a submarine lack both the space and the freedom of action enjoyed by the keepers of even the smaller light stations. But, thanks to radio, they are able to keep in touch with the world ashore—to get news, lectures, entertainment—not merely when they are cruising far at sea but even when they are actually deep under the ocean waves! Probably the most interesting radio installation in the United States navy, because of the difficult conditions under which the sets must operate, is that of Atwater Kent receivers and speakers on Uncle Sam's largest submarine the V-4. The V-4, in addition to being the largest of one under water boats, with a length of 381 feet and a surface displacement of 2,660 tons, also holds the record for deep diving. In a recent test she forced her way downward to a depth of 318 feet below the surface. Ordinary under water cruising is at least this depth.

White paint this ship and other equipment against w In this age of color in everything from automobiles to typewriters, it is interesting to note from the records of Commander Byrd's previous arctic explorations that color has a greater and more specific value in polar regions even than it has closer to civilization. "The right color," said Richard G Brophy, business manager of the Byrd Antarctic Expedition, "applied to buildings, outlying caches of supplies, and even some forms of personal equipment, is certain to mean time and unpredictably in the long run under adverse conditions may be responsible for the rescue of numbers of our party who may be caught in outlying posts by weather or climatic conditions which we have to face. "Explorers know that black, even though the greatest contrast to white, is not necessarily the most conspicuous color. That is the reason that Commander Nobile had the little red sent that we have heard so much about, and that was the particular feature of his camp that rescue pilots could 'spot' at the greatest distance. Black, of course, is a dead color, and against white has a tendency to reduce in size the object that is painted black.

Commander Byrd have taught us that a pure orange has the opposite tendency, and not only seems to increase the size of the object itself, but is by far the easiest color to see against a white background. In the Antarctic our huts, advanced posts of supplies, carried in by dog team or tractor, and even traveling expeditions themselves, will be painted or marked with the orange paint we are taking with us. "It is extremely important to us that the color shall not only be the pureest orange, giving us the greatest vibration possible to the color itself, but it must be so mixed with other first grade elements that it shall not the maximum of light fastness. We have selected the most durable and white paint materials featured by Montgomery Ward & Co. because after very careful analysis and research, we believe that it will stand up under the very trying conditions that we shall impose upon it." A large quantity of white paint is also being taken along—rather like taking coals to Newcastle—in a region where everything is absolutely pure white. It is necessary that various parts of buildings and equipment be painted with the purest white available, as any other color would tend to decrease the high visibility of the orange. >} Magazine Page & ‘| eee Re i a 2 ahah secsebs 8) : Fe Wales Ruben Tenn | Mr. end Mrs. Einar Lundborg in New York gee 5 renee Ee . cand (Ls . s re a 5 GRO By ts. . he ee i : a. oe a 2 ae a sd as PERE ss pas eee eke speek Sa; Glee Bie, & 2” Pee Si a eames oe & ~~ coo é S Pe ee Ae fe ae * \\ eee Ve ND of NE EA tte oe. ea af L\ a Re ee AU (WN Captain Einar Lundborg, Swedish aviator, and Mrs. Lundborg are in New York.

And a team of thirty-three modern agricultural nurses does the work formerly done by ninety-nine. The horse and mule, harnessed and teamed by modern methods are still the most efficient farm machine yet deviced and more harness is bought yearly by the farmer than any other single machine equipment according to statistics compiled by Montgomery Ward & Co. the big most order house which keeps pace with the latest time and effortful harness. At present there are sixteen and a quarter million horses engaged in agriculture—only slightly fewer in number than there were ten years ago—whereas the decrease in the number of horses used for city-hailing and all other non-agricultural pursuits is more than 25 per cent. Large combined teams. working as a unit and controlled by a simple pair of reins have increased their efficiency several hundred per cent in the last ten years as a result of modern harness and multiple hitching equipment according to an extensive survey by the Horse Association of America This important modern development in harnessing of horse-power has come This THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA Please find enclosed $1.25 for Kelly Miller's History of the Negro in the World War.

SEAMAN, TAYLORVILLE, ILL. within the last five years from the great Palatine country of Eastern Oregon and Washington, where multiple hitching of ten, twenty-two, and thirty-three horse teams has been the custm in for a quarter of a century. New farmers in all sections of the country, the wheat fields of the north and east, the corn fields of the middle west, and the tobacco fields of the south have adopted big-train hitching, and use two and three times as many horses per man as they did ten years ago. the Ward survey shows. The secret of modern efficiency of farm horse equipment lies in the exact mathematical construction of harness with equalizers and the "tying-in and Bucking-in" system. A single pair of lines leading to the leaders only controls thirty-three horses which are tied in and bucked back. Division of labor in a team of thirty-three horses is perfect. All horses are forced to pull exactly equal amount of the load, and are held in their exertions to each other by the chain and buck straps. Each horse is to the horse in front of the other behind and the one at his side. Buses are regulated to enable him to walk, keeping his draw bar parallel to the plow-bar. If he hangs back on the chain is shortened. If he pulshed too fast, he automatically pulls on his own drawchain and is forced back.
