THE RICHMOND PLANET VIRGINIA JUN 22 1929 STATE LIBRARY Virginia State Library, SAWFUL MURDERS HERE JOHN ANDERSON KILLS WIFE, DAUGHTER AND UNBORN BABE--A DETAILED DESCRIPTION. VOLUME XLVI NO. 31 3 M JOHN UNB (Special by John Mitchell Jr.) John Anderson shot and killed Gortrude Anderson, his wife and Lillian Robinson, his step-daughter Friday morning. June 21st at about 5:30 o'clock. He entered the house through the rear window upstairs and after the murders made his escape. His wife was soon to become a mother. I heard about the tragedy at about 6:30 A. M. and hastened to 735 North Second Street where it took place. Groups of colored folks had gathered, while the Police Department was busy endeavoring to locate the murderer. A BLOODY CHAMBER No one seemed to know much about the affair as to how it occurred until I reached the house. A rent sign was on the front. Upstairs in the front room where the staying took place were members of the family. A double bed in the north side of the room with a bloody spot in the centre, about 18 inches in diameter showed where the life blood of the two women had ebbed. Bullet holes were in the walls. Both were in the bed at the time. The story told was that Anderson, who came back and forth to the house, living at the time with his Sister Mrs. Martha Wood 602 North Third Street upstairs, came into the house about 3 o'clock that morning. A STORY OF THE QUARREL He and his wife had some words about his not bringing any money to take care of the children. He left in a fit of anger returning shortly after 5 o'clock when without saving anything he opened fire on the women in the bad killing both of them. He had come in the back way walking up the steps in the rear. A window opened on the back porch. Through this window he crawled' and passing through the rear room went into the front one took the lives of his wife and her grown daughter. MANY CHILDREN He then hurriedly left the room. His wife's youngest child is two years of age. William H. Douglass 16 E. Baker Street is Gertrude An- derson's brother. John Anderson had five children by Gertrude Anderson, Edward Robinson, Peter Robinson are brothers of Gertrude Anderson while Malinda Robinson, 916 St. James St. is mother of Gertrude Anderson, Marie Robinson is sister of Gertrude Anderson. The murdered woman is the mother of 8 children. Their names are: Malinda nickname Cosy, Dorothy Gertrude Johnny and Thelma. His children are: Charley and Waverly. THE TWO WOMEN'S BODIES Liklian Robinson is John Anderson's step-daughter, being his wife's child. Both had children when they married. Going down to Funeral Director F. H. Hayes' establishment I found the two women laid out on cooling boards. No autopsy had been made to determine the track of the bullets. It was a veritable slaughter pen with three lives taken but with only two visible as Anderson's wife was soon to become a mother. ANDERSON'S SISTER Leaving the plaque the detectives could be seen scouring the neighborhood for some sort of John Anderson. It had only been about an hour and a half since the crime was committed and it was presumed that the man was in hiding. At the residence of his sister Mrs. Martha Wood it was said that he had been on and out of the. Detectives in an automobile had been there and both th's place and the house at 735 North Second Street were under surveillance. NEW VINE BAPISTIST CHURCH Rev. W. L.

Noblett is the General Agent for the State of Virginia. EAGLES CLASH! Ladies' Auxiliary in Police Court. Mary Barlow and Embezzlement. Attorney Moss Says Charge Cannot Be proven. Ladies' Auxiliary and Embezzle Charg A large number of witnesses were in the Police Court last Tuesday morning in the case of Mrs. Mable Barlow, charged with appropriating to her own use the sum of $50.00 the money of Ladies' Auxiliary of the Eagle Beneficial Chab. This money was collected from the members and turned over to her to be deposited in the Commercial Bank and Trust Company. A death claim was ordered paid and a check written and it was found that the money had not been deposited in bank and the claim could not be paid. Attorney Charles W. Moss appeared for Mrs. Barlow and made no denial of the facts simply stating that the money would be made good by his client. Attorney Alfred E. Cohen appeared for the Ladies' Auxiliary. The warrant named Mame Hill as witness, although many others were present. Mr. Peters of the Commercial Bank stated that the organization had only $3.29 to its credit. The books of the club showed ample funds, that should have been on deposit. The case was continued by Judge Haddon the understanding being that Mrs. Barlow would make the deficit good. . . OTHER CHARGES. Attorney Alfred E. Cohen had announced to the Court that he was leaving for Europe on the 19th inst. and it will decided to carry the charge against Mable Barlow over until September 18, 1929, by which time he will have returned to this country. However Wednesday, June 19th the felony charges were on the police blotter, Mable Barlow having been again arrested. All were substantially the same and read as fol- THE WARRANT "Mable Barlow, C. 35 Dom. 720 Munford Street, dled unlawfully and feloniously forge a certain order or draft commonly called a check purporting to be the order or draft of the Ladies' Auxiliary Eagle Beneficial Club signed by Agnes Jennings and Minnie Walker upon the American National Bank for the payment of $50.00 and did feloniously utter and employ the same to be true and genuine instrument she well knowing the same to be forged with intent to cheat and defraud. Wit. Deisy Harris." FIVE OTHERS There were five other charges to wi- with a check on the same bank for $91 $50; $50 $51 and $30 with the same parties names signed. Robert Bland appeared as bondman for the accused in the sun of $1000 and the cases were continued and went over to September 18 1929 to await the return of Attorney Cohen. Attorney C. W. Moss appeared as counsel for Mrs. Mable Barlow. He made light of the charges saying that it could not be proven that Mrs. Barlow signed the checks or that she received any money on any of them. MUST PROVE CASE. The charge is a penitentiary offense but in order to convict it will be necessary to not only show that Mable Barb herself signed the checks but that she got money on them. Daisy Harris appeared as the accuser in all of the cases, she of course representing the Ladies' Auxiliary Eagle Beneficial Club. PRICE, FIVE CENTS. R AND TION. LASH! Mary Barlow Moss Says ven.

Dustfit for $22,000 and low in maintenance cost, because of material used. It is the picture of dignity and charm. The Indiana family who occupy it. "The taste," continued the architect, "is for permanent homes. This design N-13, has the durability of a palace, with walls faced with sawn-finish) Indiana limestone random ashlar, slate roof, steel-casement windows, and its sturdy two-car garage separated slightly from house. Hence fire rates are low. But more important is the low maintenance cost due to prominent exterior materials which in the end makes the original cost worth it.

This Week By Arthur Brisbane MONEY AND LOVE. HOLMES, BRANDEIS DISSENT. MODERN YOUTH. NOBODY KNOWS THE FUTURE. In New York a man killed himself. The reason: "I死 lost my money" In Chicago a young Ethel- wain twenty-eight, jumped to death from a two-story window. Her message: There is no doubt that if returned as an immigrant at land, he would be rejected brief inspection of his teachers You can hear the words of rogool, "What makes a rich man give all his money to the poor? Go back to Russia." Those that deplore the tendencies of "modern youth," late hours, short dresses, wild dances, cocktails, and the rest, will be interested in an investigation and report by Chicago's Epicopal Church. Young people are wild, says the report, but the blame rests with the parents. Young heads of China laws school of India. May he be worried about the parents than about children. It is a fact that bootleggers' customers are the parents. Children despise the law, and parents set them the example. Nobody knows what may be ahead of him. Frank Presbyre, in his able book, just published, "History and Development of Advertising," quotes an old advertisement offering $10 for the return of "one Andrew Johnson, who had run away from James Sollers, a tailor, at Raleigh, N. C., to whom he was apprenticed." That boy, when he ran away, didn't know he was going to be President Andrew Johnson of the United States of America. Andr Thomas A. Edison, when he sat at his telegraph key, thinking about sending more than one message on the same wire at the same time, did not dream that his THINKING would add tons of billions to the wealth of the world. Praises the Snob Professor Robert E. Rogers, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who created a sensation by advising members of the Senior Class to be snobbish in order to attain success.

C. Biley, William Boltz, and William Ricker, Defendants. At Law-No. 795. Memo Overruling the Demurrer The declaration alleges that the plaintiff is a citizen of the United States and resides in the first prescinct of Madison Ward in the city of Richmond, Virginia. That the first two above named defendants were the duly appointed judges and the named the duly appointed clerk at a primary election held in the city of Richmond on the 3rd of April, 1928, for the purposes of nominating candidates on the Democratic ticket for mayor, councilman, and alderman. That the plaintiff, who is a Negro, was on that day a male citizen of the United States, over twenty-one years of age, in all respects qualified to vote in the ensuing general election, and that he was and has been for time past time a bona fide member of the Democratic party of the State of Virginia. To Recover Damages To Recover Damages The action is brought to recover damages for the retaliation the defendants to permit the plaintiff to vote in the above memorial primary solely because he was a Negro. Defendants have no recourse to the declaration. This raises the question whether the action of the defendants in exhorting the plaintiff from voting was an infringement of the rights quarred to him by the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments of the Federal Constitution. The action is brought under Section 43 of Title 8 of U. S. C. A. Virginia Constitution Section 36 of the Constitution of Virginia provides as follows: "The General Assembly shall enact such laws as are necessary and proper for the purpose of securing the regularity and purity of general, local and primary elections, and preventing and punishing any corrupt practices in connection therewith; and shall have power, in addition to other penalties and punishments now or hereafter prescribed by law for such offences, to provide that persons convicted of them shall thereafter be disqualified from voting or holding office." Pursuant to this authority the General Assembly of Virginia has provided (Code 1824, Chapter 15, Section 221) a comprehensive plan in relation to primary elections, providing theein for participation by any political party which shall at the preceding presidential election have polled at least one-fourth of the total vote cast in such election. Applies to All Nominations The provisions of this chapter apply to the nominations of all candidates for office to be nominated by a direct primary. The right is granted to the party authorities of any political party qualified to participate in such a primary, to adopt some other method for the nomination of candidates for office, but when participation in the direct primary is decided on by such party authorities, the time when the same is to be held, the conduct of same, the appointments of judges and clerks, the method of holding the election and returning the ballots, the appointment of commissioners to canvass the vote, the duty of the State Board of Canvassers in relation to declaring the result, the provision for securing order at the polls, the prevention of frauds in the election, are all provided for in like manner as in the general election, including provision for the payment of the expenses of holding and conducting the primary, payment of judges and clerks of election, furnishing necessary stationery and supplies, rent of polling places, furnishing and distributing ballot boxes and poll books, etc., in the same way and to the same extent as in a general election. Section 228 provides who may vote and includes "all persons qualified to vote at the election for which the primary is held, and not disqualified by reasons of other requirements in the law of the party to which he belongs." (Italics added.) It further provides that no person shall vote except for the candidates of the party to which he belongs and which he supported in the preceding election. The declaration alleges and the demurrer admits that the plaintiff was excluded from voting in the direct primary because of a resolution adopted by the State Democratic Convention in 1924, pursuant to the authority of the Statute, declaring that only white persons should participate in a Democratic primary. Counsel for defendants admit, as of course they must, that a statute of a State which attempted to exclude Negroes from voting in a Democratic primary would be in conflict with the Fourteenth Amendment of the Federal Constitution (Nixon v. Herndon, 273 U. S. 538), but insist that the discrimination against the plaintiff complained of here was the act of an individual or a group of individuals acting as such, and therefore not within the purview of the Federal Constitution. History and Circumstances The history and circumstances of the adoption of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution have no place in this discussion. For the present it is sufficient to point out that the Fourteenth Amendment determines that persons born in or naturalized according to law are citizens of the United States and of the State where they reside. That no State shall abridge the privileges and immunities of any citizen or deny him the constitutional protection of the laws. To the States it means that no law shall be made or enforced to diminish any one of the privileges and immunities of the people of the United States, and it directs Congress to adopt such laws as may be necessary to enforce the amendment. Court (Civil Rights Cases, 109 U. W. 3; James v. Bowman, 190 U. W. 127), the first section of the Amendment is a prohibitory measure and its prohibitions operate against States and not against private persons. The Point at Issue The point, therefore, on which this case turns is whether the act of the election officers—the defendants—was THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA an official act or a personal act, that is to say, was in the performance of a duty enjoined on them by statute. It may merely individual and personal and authorized by a right inherent in the political organization to which it belong. Defendants say that the latter is the correct view. That affiliation with a political party is not a matter of right but of party regulation and that the legislature as such has no authority to fix standards or qualifications of membership. Grisgay v. Harris, 27 F (2d) 942. They say in effect that there is no liberal ban on the formation of a political party based wholly on color or on religious belief or on sex or any other standard which the party chooses to adopt, and that because of this, the General Assembly of Virginia in recognizing the right made no delegation of power but only recognized the existence of the power where it has always resided. The Way Out There can be no doubt, at least so far as the State of Virginia is concerned, that a political party may refuse to sell itself of the privileges of the direct primary and may nominate candidates to be voted for in a general or special election in any of the ways in which nominations were made before the introduction of the primary. Candidates for public office may be made such by petition, by nomination of a caucus, or by a nomination. Indeed they may be nominated in primary conducted by the party under its own rules and at its own expense. But if because of the greater safeguards which the law throws around a legalized primary or because in such case the expense isborne by the State, a party elects to adopt this method of naming its candidates for public office, it may do so and still preserve the absolute right to determine who shall participate, is a much more delicate question. A Modern Proposition A MODERN The primary as a means of naming candidates for a place on the official ballot is comparatively modern. Its spread in the last quarter of a century has been steady and it is today in practically every State the exclusive method adopted by the two great political parties for the nomination of candidates for office, State and Federal. Its growth and adoption as a vital part of the election system arose because of the importance to the public to "give vitality to the constitutional guaranty of a free and untrammeled ballot." Judge Keith's Language This purpose may not be better stated than repeating the language of Judge Keith in Commonwealth v. Willcox, 111 Va., page 859, as follows: "We know, as a matter of common knowledge, that the purpose of holding a primary election is to select a candidate to be voted for by a party organization at the ensuing general or special election. We know that the person selected at the primary election to be voted for at the general or special election will receive the votes of the members of the party to which he belongs and for which the primary is held, and if both political organizations, or all political organizations, into which a community is divided, held primary elections, it necessarily follows that the person chosen at the primary becomes the nominee of his party to be voted for at the general election, and that one of the primary nominees will ultimately be elected to the office. "In other words, the primary when adopted by a political party becomes an inseparable part of the election machinery, and if a candidate to be voted for at the general election is to be selected at a primary, it is impossible to secure the regularity and purity of the general election without in the first place guarding against regularity. The primary election constitutes a necessary part, and fulfils an essential function in the plan to promote honesty in the conduct of elections—elections which shall faithfully reflect and register the unbought will of the electors. "If there be fraud in the primary election, which is the very root from which the whole system of regulation springs, it is vain to regulate the conduct of general elections, for the fraud by which the nominee at the primary election is chosen enters into and is an inerable constituent in the result. However fair the general election may be, if at that election men have no choice but to vote for candidates who have been nominated by fraudulent practices at primaries, or else to desert their party, which would be in most instances but to throw away their votes without achieving any good result, the effect of the election must be the consummation of a fraud and the defeat of the will of the people, for 'thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grape.' "We are of opinion that section 122-0 is not only cognate and german to, congruous with and in furtherance of the object expressed in the title of chapter 10 of the Code, which fully satisfies the requirements of the Constitution, without resort to any liberality of construction, but that primary elections in their nature have such a relation to and bearing upon general elections, that the omission to bring them within the law would have left the plan devised by the legislature for securing the regularity and purity of elections wholly abortive and ineffectual." What the Supreme Court Said In Nixon v. Hermedon, supra, the Supreme Court said that "the same reasons that allow a recovery for denying the plaintiff a vote at a final election allow it for denying a vote at the primary election that may determine the final result," and in construing a statute of Texas providing that "in no event shall a Negro be eligible to participate in a Democratic Party primary held in the State of Texas, etc." declared the statute an infringement of the Fourteenth Amendment. Dodging the Issue The statute of Virginia, unlike that of Texas, does not in terms exclude the Negro, but gives to the party participating the right to do so. The result is the same. The legislature, pursuant to constitutional authority, having undertaken to regulate primary elections and to authorize them to be held at the public expense and to provide the same rules and regulations applicable to an election, may not indirectly any more than it may directly exclude a duly qualified voter who declares himself to be an adherent to the party participating in the hair soft and silky.

Leaves This beautiful morning I left my bed early, put on part of my clothing, and went to a front window where a rocker stood waiting. I love to watch early morning passers, while my morning paper is coming. The newsboy presently appeared. With him was a much smaller boy—evidently a brother—not over five at the very most. This little fellow carried three or four papers under his tiny arm. Proudly he strode beside his senior, his eyes dancing with delight, at the trust reposed in him. I could not hear his words, but he evidently asked if he should deliver my paper; the big brother nodded, as any great personage might nod in approval of a subordinate. The tiny boy dashed up my steps—seven of them, and it required effort for his short legs to accomplish the man-size elevations; how he swung and glowed and smiled in the sweet morning air, wholly oblivious to the spectacled eyes that watched him from behind the lace curtain! With an expression of profound interest, he singled out one of the three papers and placed it carefully at the bottom of my door, just as near to putting it into my hand as possible; then he turned and sped away, laughing, as fast as those short legs could carry him. New hair for old His financial accomplishment could not have been over a half-cent gain—no, it was not that; the little fellow was in glee because he could do something good—something useful for somebody, and do it well. For him, the delivery of that newspaper was a super-accomplishment. Had I been fully dressed, I might have frightened him by rushing out and seizing the darling in my arms.

Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done. 7 Behold, I come quickly: Blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book. 8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the sect of the angel which showed me these things. 9 Then sayeth he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God. 10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand. 11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still; and he that is holy, let him be holy still. 12 And, behold, I come quickly and my reward is with me, to give over man according as his work shall be. 13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. 14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. 15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolators, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. 16 Jesus have sent mine angel to satisfy to you these things in the churches.

If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book. 19 And if any man shall take away the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things, which are written in this book. 20 He that testifeth these things saith, Surely, I come quickly.

The suit was begun in 1918 in a Texas State court by Shriners in Houston against the local temple of the Negro order. locally term Texas Supreme Court Reversed The Texas Supreme Court granted an injunction. In reversing the judgment Justice Vandevane said: There is no evidence of a fraudulent intent on the part of the Negro order or of a purpose on its part to induce any one, whether Mason or non-Mason, to believe that it was the white order or that they were parts of the same fraternity. On the contrary, it is shown that the Negro Order always held itself out as entirely distinct from the white order, and as open only to members of the negro Masonic fraternity. True, there was much imitation, but this is shown to have been in the nature of emulation rather than false pretense." Had Knowledge Pointing out that "it is established that from the beginning the white order had knowledge of the existence and imitative acts and practices of the Negro order," the opinion says, the "evidence indubitably shows that with such knowledge the white order silently stood by for many years while the negro order was continuing its imitative acts and practices, and was establishing new lodges, enlarging its membership, ac- A HEARTY WELCOME Mt Carmel B On the North End REV.

"It also is shown by the uncontricted testimony of several witnesses—one a life member of the white order—that a large proportion of the copied paraphernalia, regalia, emblems and insignia used by the Negro order, its lodges and members, was purchased from or through members of the white order, and that in one instance a lodge of that order, preparatory to moving to new quarters, sold the paraphernalia and regalia used in the old quarters to a lodge of the Negro order in the same city."

Sunday School Lesson Few quarter's lessons cover more than the present one. Numerous outstanding characters appear. A great nation goes from prosperity into captivity. The general subject is "Prophets and Kings of Judah" Decline. The chronology covers 169 years, from the time of the death of Uzziah to the Fall of Jerusalem. Scripture portions include Kings, Chronicles, Isaiah, Jeremiah and Lamentations. Fourteen opportunities for character study are given: Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ahaz, Hezekiah, Hilkiah, Jonah, Shaphan, Huldah, Pashur, Zedekiah, Irijeh, Ebed-Melech, the Rechabites and Nehemiah. While kings should have invariably been worthy leaders of their people such was the exception rather than the rule. Too often they were ready to accord with the loose morals of the day rather than to act as statesmen and lead the populace back to enduring social relationships. In contrast with kings and other officials of high rank, the prophets stand out as examples in true patriotism. Isaiah started out with the idea that he was God's specially appointed ambassador and always ought to be faithful to such a trust. When kings were false he withstood them to their face and tried to help them back to a worthy conception of their office. The vision by which Isaiah was inducted into office continued as an abiding influence. Hezekiah revealed what a king could do in ways of righteousness. He saw that keeping the ordinances of the Lord was a helpful way in which to register an attitude toward new obedience. When he summoned the people to observe the Feast of the Passover they came, even from the territory of the separated Northern Tribes. That religion thus followed is joyous was indicated when the people were eager for an added seven days of Passover observance. From any base past there could be a resurrection. Isaiah often told of a bright future, by the grace of God. This was to come through a Suffering Servant, who would be their Redeemer. Therein there was a comfort in their present affliction. Jewry has always been the people charged with the care of the Book. Even the Bible is lost by disuse. Hilkiah found the rolls amid the debris of the Temple and there was much to learn and practice by all who would listen when the words were read in public. Jeremiah found the people engrossed in sin and in indifference to Jehovah. Regardless of consequences to himself he tried to dissuade from evil. Even when captivity was engulfing the nation he told how they could better the situation. A filthy pit was his reward for real national heroism. Noblehudaczzar was the instrument in completing the overthrow after Israel persisted in her idolatries and related sins. King Zedekiah, like all others who break their parcel, had to face the consequences. Judgment does not indicate lessened interest. Jeremiah expresses the continuing looking of Jehovah toward His Israel in the Golden Text; he found love; therefore with loving- THE RICHMOND PLANFT, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA FOURTH BAPTIST CHURCH (28th and P Streets) Rev.

Commonly people form their opinion of a school from the building in which it is held, from its size, the order of its sessions, its organization, its popularity in the community or by a combination of some of these or similar standards. There is only one supreme test of a goal Sunday School and that is the personal test. The goal of our work is spiritual. The method is the evangelism of teaching. The measure of our success is in terms of Christian character. Any Sunday School is fulfilling its real purpose to the extent that it is succeeding in leading its members to live lives of obedience and loyalty to the will of the Heavenly Father and of loving, self-denying service to men. If it is doing this, it is a good school. If it is not succeeding in this no matter how big it may be how strong an organization it may possess, or how complete an equipment it may have, it is a failure.

No representative of the company appeared and the case went over, but two white ladies, for whom Rose had worked, testified as to her good character. One of them stated that she had known her ever since she was born. The one with whom she stays now said that she was absolutely honest, had no need to steal, as she was saving and had money when arrested. A white gentleman who accompanied the ladies was equally as positive. They told Judge Haddon that they would return to appear in her behalf at any time. Their testimony created a profound impression.

Chicago will eventually become the financial center of America, it is agreed by nationally known banking and industrial leaders. One of the greatest moves in Chicago's financial challenge, the establishment of a securities market by the Chicago board of trade, recently was endorsed publicly by a group of outstanding financiers. The board of trade market, these men made plain, will provide long needed facilities for investment of unlimited Middle West capital "at home." William R. Dawes, vice president of the Central Trust company of Illinois, described the 31-year-old commodity exchange's new market as "an additional financial facility that will benefit not only Chicago but the entire West." Mr. Dawes' remarks were backed by similar expressions from Lawrence H. Whiting, president Boulevard Bridge bank, and chairman of the Indiana Limestone company; H. A. Whseker. Why Be Gray? II CHICAGO—Gray hair is not a badge of superior wisdom, but an index of stolthfulness. "Silver locks usually considered synonymous with intelligence, actually betray their owner's dumbrens," declared Georgia O. George, famous author of *The scalp authority of Los Angeles.* "Human hair should no more become gray with age than cow's hair or cat's fur." Gray hair is dead hair. If the scalp were alive and vigorous, it would quickly expel these infiltrate offenders. "The hair needs food. Unless the scalp is fed, the hair dies. Nutrition is supplied by the blood stream through the scalp. The only way to keep it healthy is to keep the hair salve and healthy to shampoo the head daily. Otherwise, the 'adult crudits' strain which is an accumulation of exudations from the pores of the scalp, chokes the natural growth of the hair and starves the hair cells." vice chairman First National Bank, and J. Goddes, representing President Eugene M. Stevens, of the Continental Illinois Bank & Trust company. The latter institution is Chicago's "billion dollar" bank, largest of its kind west of New York City. "The Chicago board of trade," declared Sina H. Strawn, noted attorney and chairman of Montgomery Ward & Co., "more than any other one agency, has done more to build up Chicago and the State of Illinois in that it has advertised the city and the state through its activities extend all over the world.

TORONTO, ONT.—"Sheep" is a word that shows the old-time American frontierman into a rage that frequently found relief in blazing guits, but in Western Canada today, to be identified with sheep as a badge of respect and a sign of prosperity. Canadian sheep owners had an exceptionally prosperous year in 1928, and the sheep population shows a steady increase, according to a bulletin by the Department of Colonization and Development of the Canadian Pacific railway. "The 1928 wool clip averaged from 5 to 25 per cent above the prices obtained during the previous season," says the bulletin, "and lamb prices remained on the same high level they were on during the 1927 season. The four western provinces and Ontario all showed gains in the sheep industry. "Canada's western provinces and New Battle Fleet Head Vice admiral, L3 N3 Nelson, former lieutenant of the United States Naval Academy of Annapolis, has just become "conservative" on the United States Navy Fleet. Ontario are particularly adapted to the raising of sheep. The rolling hills and well-watered positions grow vartious kinds of short, sweet natural grass and white clover, specially adapted for sheep. "Ontario sheep have brought many laurels to that province. Sheep breeders of the province have won many important prizes at the large American expositions, such as the World's Fair at Chicago, the Pan-American Exposition at Duffalo, the St. Louis Exposition, and the annual International Livestock show at Chicago. "New Brunswick sheep is much sought after in markets of the excellent grain and flavor. There is room for large extensions of sheep raising in New Brunswick, both on the ordinary farm, where small flocks can always be kept to advantage, and upon rocky and rolling land not profitable for cultivation."

ADAMS ILLUSTRATED BY FRANK P. DRUEN Eleventh Installment WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE The Sheridan Dramatic Club, of which he was formerly named Jim Power, he cares for him, Jim Power, the legal are members, start; performance of organization and the rehearsal are interrupted by a fire During the rehearsals Tom Ebick is used by the husband and cap of the present Hemingway, of being in love with Kiding away from the scene of the ill-fated play in their costumes and overcoats, the group of players is held up by a ladder. The ladder is captured by Blinkeck after a struggle. The captured thief is tied to a chair at the Old Soldier's House. Unable to escape, the thief and the players must stay there, and Mr. Hemingway, hearing this over the phone, says he is coming right to the home—as he is musical of his wife and Blinkeck. Meanwhile the Hemmingway arrives just when Blinkee is assisting Alex. The car is parked in a course that the worst. Meanwhile a disturbance is heard in the celerail, and all in the house rush down P The Sheriff's horse has broken loot. Meanwhile Hemingway suspects Billebuck more. He tells Billebuck he has arranged that the Hemingway be divorced and that Billebuck to marry Mrs. Hemingway. To get back home, Hemingway must travel to Billebuck and Billebuck offers to go with him. In violent disagreement, they nevertheless start out together on snowshoes and skis and soon Billebuck tumbles over Hemingway's horse. ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XI My skis went under him and I went over him. It hardly seems possible that an object moving as rapidly as I was could have been brought to a full stop in so short a distance. Hemmingway made a wonderful buffer. I was hardier than he was, very glay girdle ceasing moving for a few moments with more parts of me resting on the ground than just my feet. Hemmingway scrambled to his feet. To my amazement, he held one snowshoe in his hand and while I looked he brought it down over my head. "You dang murderer?" he shouted by way of emphasis to the blow. "What'd you try to kill me for?" "Wh-what's that?" I ejaculated. "Do you think I did it on purpose?" "Of course! Otherwise why didn't you slow up or jump over me? I maintained a dignified silence. What possible answer could I return to a fool query like that? Why don't I jump over him? Why doesn't Faft hold the pole-vault record? When my skis were readjusted where I had strained the footstraps by trapping me up. I proceeded the rest of the way down hill. Howingway joined me a little hard hung. "Use a long stick dragging in the snow to make them go slower," beceived contemptiously. "How do you know?" I asked. "Pictures," he explained terribly. I recollected something like that my self, now that he had mentioned it. You remember the photograph—a graceful young man in a tassel cap and sweater poised in mid-air half way from one rise of ground to another, in his hand a long pole, on his face a non-chalent smile? A pole was what I needed most. I thought I could manage the nonchalant smile myself. I cut myself a branch of a tree. It was a great help. I used it in climbing up the next incline and leaned heavily on it coming down on the other side. For the most part we traveled in silence. Once we had an argument as to whether or not we were proceeding in the correct direction. I thought we were right and he maintained that we were bearing too far to the left. "To go due east," he insisted, "we ought to head directly toward the sun." "No, I argued." "Not at this time of year. In the winter the sun is quite high. So, go east, we ought to keep the sun a little to the right." I finally convinced him and got tired of arguing. Anyway, we went way away. I still maintain that we would have reached Fair Oaks in that direction it not been for the accident. We passed through a gully that was pretty thickly grown up with hardwood timber. It was a narrow and deep dry wash and lots of snow had drifted into it. I had gotten across it safely and was proceeding without looking back when a muffled cry of "Help!" caused me to turn around. Hemmingway was nowhere in sight! Slightly puzzled, I went back. He had certainly been close behind me. I found him in the gully up over his head in snow. His gowns lay on top, melancholy monuments of his whereabouts. I looked down at him in amazement. I looked happened! I asked. "How did you get down there?" "I tell off my anewsheets" be explained briefly. "I tipped and in trying to save myself I tipped out of the loops that fastened the food things on my feet. I didn't realise how thin a crust was here or how deep it was underneath it. It wouldn't hold me and I fell through; that's all." As far as any experience went it was an unprecedented situation. At last, by supreme effort, I scrambled over the edge into the snow that was only moderately deep. "No. Every step I take makes the hole larger." I began to see the advantage of snowshoes and skis for wister tracing. It seemed hardly possible, but the same crust wizard really withdrew would prove so treacherous when we were deprived of our wide footwear. "See if you can't give a lift of some sort" suggested Hemmingway. "Gladly." I answered, "but how? At less, by supreme effort, I scraa that was only moderately deep. "Reach down with your hands and help me while I scramble up and get back on my snowshoes. This seems to be sort of a hole in the ground I am in, and I think the snow isn't so deep where you are." I acquiesced in his plan, as I could think of no other. Reaching down I gave him my hands and began to pull up while he scrambled wildly with his feet. I sincerely believe that the scheme would have worked if my skis hadn't begun to slip. As it was he was nearly half way out before my feet shot out from under me and I landed solidly at the bottom of the pit he had made. How I managed to end up underneath Hemmingway I can't imagine; but I did with a lot of snow and his snowshoes on top of both of us. "What are you doing down here?" he asked petulantly. He spoke as if it was his hole and no one else had any right to be in it. "I didn't want to come up," I returned angrily. "I was trying to help you. The next time you fall off your old snowshoes you can get back on them all by yourself. Now that we are here, how are we going to get out?" "We might tunnel," he suggested. "All the way to town?" I asked. "How would it be if stood on your shoulders?" he suggested, "and climbed out?" "Why you on my shoulders?" I asked. "Why do I get the star part in this acrobatics air?" If you get out, what happens to me? I suppose I stay down until it gets spring. "Could walt until I got help," he offered. "And treez to death in the meantime, I suppose. This is a nice little ice box you choose for a home anyway. My fingers feel as if they are going to break off now!" Finally we evolved a scheme of tramping the snow under foot in each direction until we discovered what the confines of our prison were. It must have taken us an hour to do it, but it kept us warmer and gave us the feeling that we were at least doing something. We found out that we were in a bowl-shaped depression with steep sides and a rounded bottom. It looked like to be a comparatively simple matter to climb out under primary conditions, but with the snow over everything it proved as impossible as for an insect to get out of the funnel-shaped pit of an ant-tion. I think I've got it" Hemmingway suggested. "What's your scheme?" I asked, scotically. "We will run around in a circle down here," he explained, each time going a little higher on the sides. The centrifugal force will keep us from slipping until finally we'll reach the top. You've seen fellowes that do trick on motorcycles in a racing bowl, haven't you? I admitted that I had, but doubled whether we could go fast enough to raise us up to the top. However, it was worth trying, and we started. I had to carry the skis in my hand and he had his snowboards strapped over his shoulders so that when we got out we would have with us our means of proceeding further. He started out ahead, and in order to keep out of his way I had to follow. We were getting along fine and were half way up the side of the bowl, when Hummingway, who was traveling faster than I, tried to pass me. Honestly I didn't trip him on purpose, although he says I did. How foolish! I wanted to get out of there myself. So that to get us is mess, he did fail, and as --- THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA Magazine Page he went he carried me with him. We landed in our usual position at the bottom of the bowl, hopelessly tangled up as to arms, legs, skis, and snowshoes. I got to my feet as soon as possible I got to my feet as soon as possible and moved the point of one of my skis from John Hemmingway's stomach. "This broke this broken." I said, ex- "I hope this isn't broken," I said, examining it carefully. "I care about Hemingway, "for I want to break it myself!" He rubbed the spot where the ski had ambled over the edge into the snow rested. We tried the same trick again and again, and always with the same result. One or the other of us would slip and it would involve the entire party in disaster. After we had done that for quite a while we desisted. We didn't have any more wind left, anyway. As we ever there there I tried to rack my brain as to where I had been in a similar situation. At last I remembered it. It was in a summer amusement park years ago. There had been a depression in the floor of one of the concessions called the "Bump Bowl," out of which it was very difficult to extricate yourself after you had once got in. There was a trick about it—the trick was the only way you could ever get out. I tacked my brains to remember that trick. At last I did. "Keep a little bit to one side," I told Hennemingway and wondering but docile, he obeyed. I ran up the side of the bowl as far as I could and then turned and ran straight down again and up on the other side. I repeated this process several times, the impetus carrying me higher each time, until at last by a supreme effort I scrambled over the edge into snow that was only moderately deep. A few moments later Hemmingway worked the trick. After we had put on our skis and snowshoes we started off once more. "We were there so long," I said, "that we have probably missed the train." "I suppose so," Hemmingway assented gloomily. "But there will be another train some time, I guess, and if we hurry we may be there before it goes." So we pushed on. We had been traveling in the woods, so we were a little doubtful about our directions, but as soon as we emerged we found the sun again and headed in that general direction, bearing a little to the left as before. I was getting hungry, but Hemingway vowed the idea of stopping at a farmhouse for lunch because, as he suggested, we could probably get a better meal in town. He thought we must be almost there, as we had been traveling quite a while before we found the soup-bowl, and it was only about eight miles all told. So we pushed on. At the top of every hill we expected to get our first glimpse of Fair Oaks, but every time we were disappointed. It seemed incredible that we had not come eight miles. We had been walking for hours and were all worn out. Still we were headed in the right direction, due east, toward the sun. It was only when the sun set that we realized our blunder. While we had been in the soup-bowl the sun had passed overhead; and when we had taken our bearings again after coming out, we must have headed southwest when we went toward the sun and a little left. It was absurdly simple when we came to think about it, but I doubt if any one not trained in woodcraft would have done differently than we. We had been going ever since noon in exactly the opposite direction; and by this time were three or four hours' travelling from Fair Oaks!

Milady's Beauty Secrets by Helena Rubinstein Of self-same color is her hair Whether unfolded or in tuches. Heigh-ho, fair Rosaline! —Lodge The feminine hairdress calls for preventive of all these conditions of more than distinctive style to be per hair ill health. The feminine hairdress calls for more than distinctive style to be perfectly successful. It calls for texture gloss and finish as well. And this is not alone to be attained through purely artificial means. The credo of hair beauty is the belief and the practise of the (tremendously important) daily brushing. There is no better way to keep hair soft and lustre which come from this regular care cannot be duplicated not even with a pint of brilliance. It is more than merely surface which brushing develops. It is the sheen of brush and scalp activity and no artificial aid can stimulate this. The most successful way to brush the hair is with military brushes. When using hand brushes the pressure falls directly on the hair instead of being distributed between the scalp and the handle of the brush. Also, the military brushes make for an even regularity of movement. After one week of regular brushing you won't recognize your hair. I cannot understand why so many women neglect this so easily cultivated part of their beauty. Next in importance in developing the loveliness of your hair is the frequent use of a good tonic. Many of you. I find, ask me about hair tonics when there is definite injury to be corrected, whether it be premature graying, falling hair or broken dry strands. A hair tonic should be more than a corrective to you. It is first of all Kitchen Parties La For Entertaini KITCHEN KITCHEN FOOTY NEW YORK—"Kitchen parties" are the latest rage at the 400's social gatherings with both hosts and guests in the role of hired help toiling over the gas range with pots and skilllets, tinkering in the butter's pantry and mixing with toothsome tidbits. With aprons covering expensive gowns and afternoon coats, the hosts and guests of both sexes make the kitchen instead of the drawing room their "whoopee" haunt. "Guests at a kitchen party must know their groceries," said a society matron here. "for they will be called upon to perform culinary stunts in preparing salads, toasting cheese and butter, baking cookies in Newbury, trying small sauces, slicing cold meats, mashing tea or assembling judge short cake." "A good man can handle it." R FOR There are three classifications of hair—the normal, the dry and the only, and the tonic you select should be specifically suited to your particular type. Rub it well into the scalp, a drop at a time, using the very ends of your fingertips, not the cushioned pads of the first joint of your fingers. Not only will the tonic stimulate hair growth and strengthen the roots, but it will help along the good work of brushing until a fine, natural gloss has become a permanent feature of your charm. The third important unit in cultivating the high lights of hair beauty is that much used, often abused product—brilliantine. There are certain arrangements of the hair which demand the maximum of lustre. The satin-smooth bob is one such style, and to those who wear this type of hairdress, I address the caution—a very little brilliantine goes a long, long way. One single drop in the palm of your hand and then rubbed briskly into the hair brush will be more than sufficient for the average person. Another method of applying brilliantine is by placing a drop or two in the palm of one hand, rubbing both hands together, then smoothing on the hair.

Calvary Baptist Church last Sunday were well attended owing to the incendency of the weather. The pastor Rev. C. A Cobbs will preach a special sermon tomorrow morning. There will be live music by the choir Tuesday evening June 18th at 8 o'clock sharp there will be an illumination of the building at Calvary. Admission admits 15 cents children 10 cents. Come early and get a good seat. The funeral services of Miss Fannie Jeffries who departed this life on the 8th last were held Monday June 19th. 3 P. M. at the Silhon Baptist Church. The sermon was delivered by her pastor Rev. S. L. Bush B. D. Rev. C. B. Jefferson acted as master of ceremonies Brief remarks were made by Mr. Robert Whiting representing the Richmond Baptist Sunday School Union. Resolutions were read coming from the Church. Solos were rendered by Misses Fannie Ivory. Georgia Carter and Mr. William Manning. Appreciate music was sung by the choir when adopted an inseparable part of the election machinery, it would seem to me necessarily to follow that the legislature cannot by delegation or otherwise give vitality to a claimed right which it is itself prohibited by the Constitution from enacting into Other Citations In People ex rel, Brechton v. Election Commissioners, 221 Ill. 9. 7 N.E. 321, it was held that a primary election law which provides that the county committees of a political party shall determine whether candidates shall be nominated by a majority or a plurality vote, is invalid as a delegation of legislative power, the basis of this decision being that since the legislature had enacted a statute regulating the form of the ballot, what shall appear upon it, and how the candidates whose names appear shall be chosen, it has drawn to itself the duty of determining the question whether a majority or plurality vote should be necessary to nominate and that the delegation of this right to a political party might not be legally done, and this is no more than the recognition of the well established maxim that a law must be complete in all its terms and conditions when it leaves the legislature. Cooley's Const. Lim. (7th Ed.) 163. Delegation of Power In the statute under consideration there is not only a delegation of legislative power—in itself unconstitutional—but also in its purpose and effect a recognition of a further power which the legislature itself does not possess. Admittedly the State may not provide otherwise than for equal rights of suffrage as well in the primary as in the election. This the statute does and if this were all there would be no ground of complaint, but it goes farther and recognizes and enforces the right of a political party to prescribe qualifications forbidden under the Fifteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States. This a State may not do. "The legitimate purpose of such a law * * * must be to sustain and enforce the provisions of the Constitution and the rights of voters, and not to curtail or subvert them or injuriously restrict such rights." (People v. Commissioners, supra). That a law which recognizes or which authorizes a discriminatory test or standard does curtail and subvert them there can be no doubt and such a law is therefore in conflict with the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States. Impressed with the importance of the question raised in this case and mindful likewise of the responsibility of its decision, I have given the case careful thought. That its effect may be to change a custom that has long obtained in the political system in ef- A Circ SERV to all M THE MACHINIST is a precision and usefulness to humanity is benefited, safe work is an important link in One of a Series—No. 14 A Circle of SERVICE to all Mankind THE MACHINIST is a skilled mechanic, a man of precision and usefulness to mankind.
