Killed in Self Defense
(Richmond Virginia Feb. 6)
On the night of February 2, Geo.
Nelson, of 105 E. Coutts Street, was
sound dying of kufie wounds, on the
corner of Second and Federal Sts.
He was before reaching St. Philips
Hospital.
Julia Frazer, 27-year-old, was
arrested the next morning for the
murder.
"I had to cut him to keep him from beating me to death," she said. "I had been going with George since 1926, we both lived at 105 E. Coutts Street. We had company, a man name Ruben and another name George Wood, we were playing 500. George (Nelson) asked me to loan him a dollar, I refused, because he had been drinking, and was only going to buy more whiskey. He became angry and picked up two empty whiskey pars, and said, 'If you don't give it to me, I'll bust your head open.' He had been in the habit of beating me for the longest kind of time, as all my neighbors know. Everybody wondered why I didn't leave him, but I loved him, and staved with him.
"I left the house to keep from arguing and walked up Second Street, to give him time to leave the house. I thought he would go up First St. When I came back I met him at the corner of Second and Coutts. He walked up to me, and said, 'You think you are d—— smart.' You I, did, we had company and I didn't want any argument. He smacked me right down in the street, and began to beat me. I stood him as long as I could until he kicked two of my teeth out, while I was down. I cut him, God knows I didn't intend to kill him, because I love him. I was merely trying to protect myself. I didn't see anyone near the corner that could help me when he first started to beat me, a man did pick up my pocketbook when it was over. He could tell you how bloody I was."
"GeorAge ran up Second St. and dropped at the next corner. I don't know what I did after that, I just walked and walked all night. I didn't have but 36 cents and caught a bus the next morning, I was going to give myself up. I got off at the corner of Adam and P. and saw a policeman. I would have given myself up to him, but I wanted to get the money I had in my trunk. I went through an alley to keep the police from seeing me and met a man who worked with George. I asked him to take me home to oget my money, and I would give myself up. He told me to ee George's first job, Mr. Graham's, the best thing he told to do was to give myself up. When I got home, the detectives had been there and gotten the money out of the trunk. I was then carried to the police station where the detectives gave me my money, every cent."
George Nelson has a mother, Mrs. Sarah Nelson, who resides at No. 1 King Street, and two sisters. His mother on being interviewed stated she knew absolutely nothing about her son's domestic affairs, he did not live with her, she knew he was living with Julia Frazer. She had heard that cocaine had been found on George's body, but the police told her this was not true.

WASHINGTON HI NEWS
By Martha Lewis
The examinations got under way at our school last week. Many passed in English and Science, but the majority failed in French and Mathematics.
The chargest event of the week was the basketball classic between Huntington High of Newport News and dear old Washington High, of Staunton. The latter was defeated, but in keeping with the slogan, "Don't Let Defeat Cause Sorrow, Think of the Victories of Old." they went down with the colors flying.
A social was given at the school after the game. Music was furnished by a department of "Big Bill Burke's and His Fals," Valley's most popular orchestra.
The Girl's deserve Club is doing great work for the school this year. This club was organized last year, with Miss Vioa Ashy as its president. The good spirit which was carried on last year, stil lesists this year. Miss Hudson is the cnaperon and the president is Miss Juanita Johnson.
Watch this column weekly for the high school news and activities. The Seniors have been singing, "Where Was Eva Sleeping," very much, recently. The school has begun to wonder where are they sleeping. Where is The Echo staff, that in recent years has been organized and where is the spirit of that class? Wake up Seniors! When the shadows of evening are

WOMAN SHOT IN HEAD
LINGERS 15 DAYS
(Capital News Service)
Raleigh, N. C.—Odessa Cooper, 40 years old, shot through the brain with a 35-calibre pistol bullet, died fifteen days after the shooting at St. Agnes Hospital here.
Mrs. Cooper was shot through the head on January 13th by Henry DeLoach, who claims he was shooting at Arthur Johnson, another Negro. Johnson jumped just as the shot was fired and the bullet went through the woman's head, entering one temple and emerging near the ear on the opposite side.
The woman regained consciousness at the hospital the next day after the shooting, and for over a week was able to talk. Occasionally she smiled. It was thought for a while that she would recover. A few days ago, however, she relapsed into unconsciousness. She die early on the 16th day after the shooting.
DeLoach, who has been held in jail pending her condition, has been bound over to Superior Court without privilege of bond, charged with the murder of Odessa Cooper.

Game Quite Popular Among Upper Classes
President
Rev. W. L. Ransome
(Richmond Virgin'e Feb. 6)
At Fourth Baptist Church Tuesday night, January 28th, the newly elected officers of the baptist Ministers' Conference were installed. The principal address was delivered by Rev G. W. Watkins, B. D. Rev. Watkins used as a theme "A Prepared Ministry." The speaker charmed his audience with the carefully prepared matter of his address as well as his splendid delivery. Following the address the officiary of the conference responded with few but well chosen words expressing appreciation of having the confidence of the Baptist brotherhood of Richmond and vicinity.
Under the able leadership of the twice elected president, Dr. W. L. Ransome, the conference has won a new place in the affections of the people of the city. He occupies his office with that dignity and grace befitting his reputation as a scholar, but without detracting in any way from the demeanor and bearing which proclaims him a minister of the gospel.
Richmond is accustomed to accept the president of the Baptist Ministers' Conference as its spokesman in things ecclesiastical and as its leader in those things touching the social and civic welfare of its people. In Dr. Ransome the Negroes of the city have the highest type of representative. His quiet and unassuming manner causes him to be loved by all sinners as well as saints. His splendid training enables him to be of invaluable service to the brethren through advice and counsel, which he is never too busy to give in connection as a professor at Virginia Department of education at Virginia Union University give him contact with young developing minds and his class rooms are always crowded with strangers delight to drink from the inexhaustible spring of his knowledge, and the churches of the city look forward to a gospel feast when Dr. Ransome is scheduled to speak. Under his wise leadership it is safe to predict for the conference another year of splendid achievement.
Dr. Ransome is able assisted by the following corps of officers: Dr. W. T. Johnson, vice-president; Rev. C. A. Cobbs, secretary; Dr. F. W. Williams, corresponding secretary; Dr. A. W. Brown, treasurer; Rev. J. T. Crump, auditor; Rev. O. B. Simms, reporter.

CLEARING HOUSE NUMBERS
(Richmond Virgin'a Feb. 6)
"Clearing house number" players, (and they are numbered by the thousands here) received a severe jolt last week at the hands of Sergeant Dan Duling and his clean-up squad, when they raided 'number headquarters' at Second and Leigh Streets. Buddy Ballot was arraigned before Judge Haddon in police court and fined $250 and sentenced to 90 days in jail. He noted an appeal, which he be heard before Judge Ingram in Hustings Court, February 21.
This playing of the numbers has become an obsession here and has gained a phenomenal foothold upon the better classes of the colored people of the city.
Business and professional men, pretty girl stenographers, church officials and society belles and debts, make no secret of their participation in this rejuvenation of the old policy game. It will take a squad of detectives to find the few places in which you cannot leave 3 number and a few cents for a chance at winning some bucks for living expenses, etc, and to aid in keeping the family jewels out of pawn.

Modern Youth Compares Favorably With Any
Generation That Has Preceded It
By BISHOP WILLIAM 0. SHEPHARD (Methodist Episcopal).
The whole world, including the oft-abused younger generation, is
growing better. The young people of today are much wider awake and
much more serious than they ever were before. It scems the popular
thing now is to condemn the younger generation, but I am not one of
those who find it a pleasant occupation, For my part, I find them more
adinirable than any young generation that has yet existed.
T have three sons, and it is no secret to me that they are better men
than I was when I was their age. In fact, it is a good world and getting

Real Brain Capacity
Not Matter of Weight
Brain capacity does not increase with the ages, as fae, at least, as historic periods go. Sir Arthur Keith, conservator of the museum of the Royal College of Surgeons, was examining a skeleton which had been found in digging the foundations of a house at Purley, Surrey, and he said:
"This man was a Roman, a real Roman. His skull is quite different from the Roman-British skulls of 1,800 years ago. It is a splendid head, and just beside it we found the skull of a child that must, in my opinion, have been the image of its father."
He measured it lovingly with a pair of calipers, and made a lightning mental calculation:
"He had more brain capacity than I have. But what I would really like to know is, what did he do with it?" The skeleton is to be sent to the Croydon museum,—E. R. Campbell, in the Vancouver Province.
King Might Have Had "To Tell It to Judge"
An amusing story about King Edward is told by Princess Daisy of Pless in her memoirs, says the Kansas City Times. One summer at Cowes, Edward went ashore from the royal yacht to play a little bridge with the duchess of Manchester at her residence, Egypt house. He didn't want any fuss, so was accompanied by only one equestry. Reaching shore they hired a can to drive to Egypt house. The driver did not know where it was and took them to the wrong place.
It was quite dark and the equerry got out and rang. A window upstairs was opened and two outraged old ladies peered out, demanding what all the noise was about. The king shouted up that he had come to play bridge with the duchess of Manchester. The angry ladies declared that they knew nothing about either bridge or duchess; that he was drunk and if he did not go away at once they would telephone for the police!
Not Really Chinese Dish
The truth seems to be that there is no such dish as chop suey known in China, although it is commonly served as Chinese throughout the United States. This has come about in a curious way. It originated at a dinner that Prince Li Hung Chang gave in New York when he made his trip around the world. Prince Li carried his own chef with him, and the menu was strictly Chinese. One of the dishes especially delighted the wife of the guest of honor, and she asked Li what it was. Prince Li called in his chef, and the chef replied in Chinese, "It is a creation of my own—a chop suey." The words "chop suey" mean a mixture or hash, Prince Li said in English, "It is a chop suey." The American woman spread the news of the chop suey, the wonderful dish. The name was taken up by the Chinese restaurants in America, and today chop suey is the chief concoction that they serve.
Left-Handedness
After a close study of several sets of identical twins, two eastern scientists have observed that there is an apparent relation between the tendency to left-handedness and the direction in which whorls in the hair curve, says Popular Mechanics Magazine.
In every case where it was possible to determine whether the hair on the crown of the head grows in a right-handed, or clockwise, spiral it was discovered that the person had a more or less strongly developed tendency to right-handedness. If the whorl was curved to the left, the person was left-handed.
Weather Changes
The weather bureau says that day-to-day changes in the weather—one cold, next warm, then perhaps cold again—are mainly due to changes in the direction of the wind, and that in turn to changes in the distribution of air over the surface of the earth. The causes operating and their effects are rather complicated, but go back mainly to circulation between the equatorial and polar regions (caused by the heating of the tropical regions and the cooling of the polar regions) as modified by the effects of the daily rotation of the earth.
Canadian Metropolis
Years before adventurous white men penetrated inland into America, Indians gave the name "Toronto" to the place where trails and water routes converged at a bay of Lake Ontario's northern shore. Toronto means "place of meeting" in the Indian language, and thanks to the amazing progress of modern transportation it has grown from a tiny settlement where goods were brought for exchange to one of the largest cities in Canada and a great railway center with a population of nearly 700,000.
Interior Department
A grade school class was discussing the various departments of government.
The teacher called on a lad who had not been attentive.
"James, who is the head of the Interior department"
"I think the stomach," replied the lad.

First Concrete Poured
PLANET - TRIBUNE OFFER
BY NEW Orleans Priest
Toward the end of the Nineteenth century a French gardener made basins by pouring concrete around a network of iron rods, and until very recently that gardener had been credited with having originated the idea of reinforced concrete.
Not until the summer of 1928 was the claim disputed. Then it was discovered that in 1833 a Jesuit priest of New Orleans had anticipated him. A church on Baroune street, built in that year, was demolished. It had been erected on land reclaimed from a cypress swamp; and when it was torn down the construction of its foundation walls stood bare.

The priest, acting as his own architect, had poured a concrete of crushed oyster shells and bricks' around strong iron bars, running from top to bottom of the walls, and held in place with wrought-iron hoops.
No written record of it was left, yet that idea is fundamental to the modern skyscraper. -Sillas Bent in World's Work.
Moon's Light Believed
LADIES WILL BE DELIGHTED.
There seems to be a very generally accepted belief that the moon exerts a very potent influence upon the mentality of some persons. Writing in the British Medical Journal, Dr. E. Gerald Stanley says that the colossal upheaval of the waters of the earth—the tides—suggests terrifying possibilities of the moon's effect on human actions.
Men in Central Africa declare they have suffered from headaches as a result of moonshine, and some make a practice of wearing a pitch helmet when going out at night.
SEE THE 4-PIECE BUFFET SET. Now on Exhibition at THE PLANET OFFICE 311 North Fourth Street.
In the Middle East exposure to the rays of the moon is said to cause nightmare as well as headaches, and in the Far East a morning "thick head" is added to these symptoms. In Burma there is a belief that when the insane suffer from mental storms these correspond to the phases of the moon.
Changing Signs
It is suggested that the way things are going now, some bond houses may change the signs on the doors to read "Stock and Bond Brokers," which recalls the story of the man who opened a bucket shop in the West. "What kind of a sign do you want on your door?" asked the sign painter engaged to do the work.
"Oh, just John Smith, Broker," replied the bucket shopper.
"Why don't you make it 'Banker and Broker?" suggested the enterprise sign painter.
What To Do.
"How much would it cost?" inquired Smith.
"About $2," replied the painter.
"Go to it," instructed Broker Smith.
"Who wouldn't be a banker for $2?"—Wall Street Journal.

Branding Sheep
Sheep are branded with paint and not with hot irons as cattle are. The fleece grows out so that hot-iron brandings would be covered up. Sheep must be branded every time they are fleeced. The branding of sheep is more common in the range countries than in the farm states, as sheep are usually kept under fence on farms, and there is not much need of branding. Special branding paint should be used instead of just any kind of tar or barn paint, so as to reduce to a minimum the trouble of scouring the wool. Manufacturers prefer that the brand be placed on sheep where the wool is of the least value, such as on top of the rump.

Peculiar Mill Stones
Before England became an industrial country, and when the villages were self-supporting, mill stones were used by the villagers to grind their corn. A remarkable feature of the stones was that the surface of the lower stone was carved with a fixed harp pattern of hollows and ridges, disposed in a certain direction between the axle and the perimeter of the stone, so as to obtain uniformity of grinding and regulate the flow of flour to the edge.—Detroit News.
Volunteer Messenger
Here is what President Wilson said was the best negro war wart he had heard during his stay in Paris. It is quoted by J. F. Essary in "Covering Washington." A group of negro soldiers were in a front line trench on the eve of an attack. A white officer approached one of them and asked:

From all indications and reports eminating from Washington, where the Negro politicians make their homes, it seems that President Hoover, whom we all shouted so loud for the last presidential election, is giving our group sleight attention. Two years has now about passed and parties are already building fences for the next election in 1932, and our President, has not to our mind, made a single gesture toward our group. It is true that Major Moton, goes to the White House now and then—and is considered one of the Negroes that is close to the President, but after his visits he is usually reteicient or he gives out some inconsequential "dope," to appease a certain impatience that is certainly growing in the Negro group.
It seems that the Republican party nationally, will have to answer for a plenty in the next campaign. Prohibition is a growing menace. Hard times is a reality. In Pennsylvania, the party faces a split. Th tariff, is a constant thorn in its side. And, in the North where the Negro has awakened to the fact, that he is growing in political power, there is much unrest. There was a time in the North when the Negro voted in large numbers, and all he wanted was a little "graft," but a new Negro now has to be reckoned with, he wants that "Equal Opportunity" that Mr. Hoover spoke so much of in the last campaign which has not been forthcoming. Then, Congressman DePriest has given to the group movement, new impetus to vote and share in the spoils. It would see that with this multitude of things facing the party, that they would go slow in showing open contempt for a group whose power could help defeat them.
In the South, and especially in our own State, Virginia, the Negro can hope for but little. Their best future, we believe, is to vote for the best man (especially in local politics), whether he be a Republican or Democrat. The only advantage we can see in voting the republican party in a State-wide election is to encourage a two party system in the State. The results from this can only be gotten with time. The only other distant or scant hope lies in there being born in the State a progressive Democratic party, that would give some recognition to Negro voters.
EDUCATION BY THE WAY
When a man who has not been trained to notice trees, flowers and birds walks through the woods he suddenly realizes his ignorance of the world in which he lives, and perceives also how easy it would be to know that world if he should pay attention to it. To know that world does not involve a long and expensive journey, absence from one's business, an elaborate set of text-books; it simply means that one shall really fasten his attention on the country about his own home, look at things instead of looking away from them, and train himself to notice carefully signs and forms and movements of life which he sees every day, but to which he gives no attention.
A man is fortunate if he can give up his youth entirely to the business of getting an education, but no man need remain uneducated because he is compelled to work while others are at school or college. There is no excuse today for the ig-
norant man; the man who can use his eyes and remains ignorant, no matter what his condition may be, remains ignorant by choice, not by necessity. No man need leave his work for one hour in order to gain an education; he can educate himself while he works. This is precisely what a great many of the best men have done. The story of American life, especially, is full of examples of boys and men who have turned a working life into a continuous school, and have passed from grade to grade in this school, not only with widening knowledge, but also with steadily increasing efficiency in their various trades and occupations.
These men can be picked out of the crowd of workers who throng all the fields of labor because of their skill, their interest in what they are doing, and their abstinence from grumbling. They do not make the blunder of supposing that their condition in life, their success or failure, are decided by other people; they have resolutely taken to heart the great, decisive truth that while conditions have much to do with the choice of tools and a vocation, each man determines for himself how large or how small a man he will be and how important or unimportant he will make himself to his employer or in his vocation.
If men were more intent upon making themselves masters of their work and less intent on getting the most they can in the way of wages, and giving the least they can in the way of labor and devotion, there would be a great addition to the ranks of those workers who are both successful and happy. The man who works simply for the wage at the end of the week, and only does what is necessary to get it, keeps himself down. The man who, in skill and devotion, is always ahead of the demands of his work, is on the highway to independence. He who would succeed must not only work, but educate himself as he works.

Ay, tear her tattered ensign down!
Long has it waved on high,
And many an eye has danced to
that banner in the sky;
Beneath it rung the battle shout
And burst the cannon's roar—
The meteor of the ocean air
Shell sweep the clouds no more.
Her duck, once red with heroes' blood,
Where knelt the vanquished foe,
When winds were hurrying o'er the
And waves were white below,
No more shall feel the victor's tread,
Or know the conquered knee;
The hippies of the shore shall pluck
The eagle of the sea!
Oh, better that her shattered hulk
Should sink beneath the wave;
Her therers shook the mighty deep,
And therese should be her grave;
Nail to the mast her holy flag,
Set every threadbare sail,
And gave her to the god of storms,
The lightning and the gale.

PARROTS
Parrots have come in for a lot of unfavorable publicity lately because of a strange disease which has attached several persons and which is attributed to infection brought by certain parrots from South America. Physicians and health officials say there is a danger of catching "parrot feces" from a bird which has been in the family for any considerable time. Parrot feces is orally the most intrinsic of all feces, and the fact that it can be taught to milk parrots it allows a human connection. And like human beings, parrots develop personal attachments to teach a degree that they can tune away and die when separated from their particular friends. Don't let anybody kill your pet just because you are a suspect of being dishonesters.

That saves Ganna from paying duties on French gowns imported from her Paris "home," though her husband lives in Lake Forest, Illinois. This decision is hated as a great victory by the ultra-remnants, whose purpose in life seems to be to break up the American home and put married life on the plane of the crespiest illicit love-affair. Because this "modern" idea runs canary to the most deepested traditions every expression of it gets a lot of publicity, which is probably what Ganna and the other remnants want. But it by no means follows that American family life is in danger. Home and babies and a husband with a good job are what the overwhelming majority of American girls still want in marriage.
STYLE .
The fur coats and silk stockings worn by the American stenographers who accompanied the delegates from this country to the Naval Disarmament Conference at London made a greater impression on English newspaper men than anything else about the delegation. Londoners never saw working girls dressed "smartly." The young women from the different departments in Washington who were taken over to do the clerical work for the delegation were not picked for their beauty but solely because they were the most efficient city in the in part of America city to work in. They also they work attract no social attention. We so used to see our girls well-dressed and smart in manner and appearance that we do not realize that nowhere else in the world do any but ultra-fashionable and actresses on parade wear the latest styles in clothes.

Dr. Albert Saw, the distinguished Editor of the Review, brings this out generally in a new two-column book which reprints the most complete collection ever made of the newspaper articles canonized to tots and other national representations at Lincoln during his rise to fame and his tenure of the White House.
Even without Dr. Saw's illuminating text the pictures show Lincoln as more grossly maligned and bitterly lamented, even in the house of his friends, than any other man who ever rose to the Presidency. Only after his tragic death did the people on the North begin to realize that a great man had led them. We are prone to forget that no man appears great to his contemporaries.

Miss Howell is touring the State trying to organize chapters and to create interest among the former students of this most excellent school for girls. She is deeply interested in her school and has done a great deal toward keeping alive in the hearts of the memory of Hartshorn. She spoke to the young people at the afternoon meeting. One point that was of interest to the reporter so we pass it on. She gave two other meaning of B. X. I. O. first, Back Your Pastor up, Second, Beautiful Youth pressing forward.
Miss Howell was the guest of Mrs. L. H. Rowiand, while in the city, a former schoolmate.

Though they picked out the worst night in the year, so far, they tell them they had pretty warm times, with a score of 18-18, playing whist.

And I learn that they had an actual cooked dinner in the month of January, with all the necessary trimmings.

In the Shiloh Baptist Church meeting recently the figures showed that more than $2,700 was taken in through the church and its various auxiliaries during 1929. Of this amount more than $600 came through the women workers, Mrs Samuel Spears and Mrs. Ollie Stewart, managers. The second Sunday in June of this year will close the ninth year of Dr. C. H. Harris' pastoral work of the church. The church under his administration has on the whole, been very progressive. Not only has he influenced the people to erect an edifice second to non in the Valley, but many have been added to the church. The success of the church in years doubtless could be attributable to his continuous encouragement to the people and exhorting them to go forward.

How to Play BRIDGE
Series 1929-30 by Wynne Ferguson
Author of "PRACTICAL AUCTION BRIDGE"
Copyright, 1929, by Hoyle, Jr.
ARTICLE No. 1
"Bugs" Baer, the well-known humorist, has some amusing ideas of the game of Auction Bridge, of which the following are some of the gems:
doubled by his partner, who has joined his opponents. This play is given to illustrate the fact that every Bridge player is really playing three people,
"The present game of Bridge is derived from the ancient Persian game of Garrump. It is played by four people, two on a side, and eight kibitzers, who are roving umpires. The most important part of Bridge is the feature known as the convention. This idea was derived from the Signal Corps of the United States Army. The conventions inform your partner what cards you hold in your hand.
"The game starts by the dealer bidding the strength of his hand. The strength of the hand should go right from the hand to the bain. But the partner bids it stops at the wrist. Having bid one club, the biddler looks at his partner like a mouse in a vinegar barrel. This convention means that he wants to be taken out.
"His partner takes him out by bidding three spades. This takes his partner out, but puts them both in deeper. The opponents glare at each other. The dealer then bids five diamonds and is
No more rubber game. Dz, deal bighour. A doubled and all passed. A lied the ring of spades. How should Z play the hand to make game against any defense? Figure this out before reading the following solution.
The mistakes that most players will make with this hand are as follows:
1. Allowing A to win the first trick.
In this case, if the ace of spades is played from Dummy on the second round A can defeat the contract if his refuses to win the first trick in hearts.

doubled by his partner, who has joined his opponents. This play is given to illustrate the fact that every Bridge player is really playing three people, his two opponents and his partner. It is the only game in the world in which everybody is a teacher. It is the only game in which white wins, and black wins. Good game over the bidder's shoulder. We never met a bad Brider player in our life.
"There are fifty-two cards in the deck. Thirteen cards are dealt to each player. After you have been paying a few months you realize that thirteen cards are not enough. When you contract to make one spade this means you must take seven tricks. The first six tricks are known as the book. And that extra seventh trick is the whole Carnegie library. It makes how you play better. The real playing card needed for the post-mortem is the final card is played. Then all four players paw around the cards, call each other names and other act like strangers in a gentleman's club." The following hand was recently played in England and has been sent to the writer for analysis:
Hearts — 3, 2
clubs — J, 7, 6, 4, 2
diamonds — K, 5, 3

The correct solution is that Z takes the first trick in Dummy with the ace of hearts, plays the nine from his own hand. Then (I) if A wins with the ling and then plays spades, Z allows him to make two tricks in Dummy with the ace of hearts, if he loses to the second trick with the king of hearts, Z should play the ace of hearts and then the ace of clubs. A can then make only his three trumps.

"MICAGO - Afternoon tea may take to place along with calculus and Greek in the American college curriculum.
Possibility that tea and cakes may be sandwiched between such heavy intellectual skills as Euclid and Einstein is forecast by Miss Helen M Ganey, dew of women in Loyola University here, who says such an innovation might serve to balance the collegiate diet.
"The situation in our downtown Chicago departments has prompted me to consider the practicability of afternoon tea between classes." Miss Ganey said.

"I see them arriving between three-thirty and four, hastily nibbling cookies or sweets, because their systems crave something which will restore depleted vitality.
"Pondering the problem, it might seem that a cup of tea, and the relaxation of taking it in a friendly atmosphere, will send them to their classrooms with minds revitalized and instruction. Particularly in the strenuous winter months afternoon tea might well have a definite place on the daily college program."
So for that sinking feeling before a quiz, try tea.

Composite the Temple station he left again. There was a narrow street running up to the Strand—Norfolk Street, wasn't it? And his lawyer had his office there. Why not see him and tell him all that had happened? It was the same thing to do. But then Luke Maddison realized that he was not same. He was the maddest thing in the maddest world.
He went on toward Blackfriars and came to a halt before the tram station. There was a long queue of people waiting to board the cars which arrived empty and went rolling along the Embankment crowded with humanity. Husbands and wives, possibly young men going back to sweet-hearts who loved them; girls who had fault, some men or other and were reu- tured to make every sacrifice for the Lake Maddison every car the away was laden with happy people, his work ended, the recreations and pleasures of the night before them.

He was standing with his back to the parapet, his elbows resting on the stone.

The law authority had, though it was quite kind. He looked up to meet the suspicious scrutiny of a City policeman. The City police do not like to see men lingering in indiscretely one hand on the parapet, the swerving black river below—especially a white-faced man in a tense face and an almost mortified stare.
"N-no," stammered Luke, "I'm—just watching."
The policeman was looking at him curiously, as though he was trying to remember his face.
"I've seen you before somewhere, haven't I?"
"I dare say," said Luke, and turned

He followed the homeward-wending crowd across Blackfriars Bridge. It was dark and cold, and he struggled into the overcoat which he had been carrying on his arm. He remembered somewhere in the borough that he entered a little coffee-house, redolent of burning lard.
At eleven o'clock it began to rain, a fine drizzle that very soon soaked through the light coat. He was walking amlessly along York Road in the question of Westminster. A man shed of him was walking more slowly, a slouching man with his hands in his pockets and his coat collar turned up. Luke was wearing rubber-soled shoes, and came up to the walker before he was aware of his presence. He saw the night wanderer lurch sideways with a snarl, stoop forward as though he were going to run, and then something in Luke's face or appearance checked his flight.
"Hullo!" he said huskily. "Thought you was a busy."
I like recognized him
Luke recognized him.
"You're Lewing, aren't you?"
The man peered into his face
"Blimey, if it ain't Mr. What's

come and seen me down 'Tooley

Twice he looked backfurtely over his shoulder.
"You thought I was a detective?"
The thin lips of the man twisted in a leer.
"That's what I said. No, I thought you was one of Connor's lot. They chased me out of Rotherhithe to-night, said I'd been 'nosing' on 'em. That's why I'm around here. Connor's crowd always thinks that someone been nosing if one of his gang's dragged"
"Nosing? You mean spying?"
"Giving 'em away to the police," explained Mr. Lewing. "Connor's bro-Only Woman Senator Dies

Lake began daily to understand "Come down here."
The clawfive hands of Lewing caught him and dragged him down a narrow, ill-lit street.
"I'm nervous to night," he said, and the clawfive held the truth, for his voice became a little whimpering gasp "You're a gentleman, Mr. Madison You help a pore feller to get away You know what Connor is—he's knife you for twopence. Bump off

He was already weary of the companionship, and, but for being in his present condition, would never have submitted to being dragged into this foul little street.
"Perhaps I can call at your office in the morning?" Lewing's voice brayed his anxiety. And then, as he remembered: "I give them pounds to the Ginger—"
"Uh, really, 'lark' and told me all about you."
There was an embarrassed silence. "Anyway, I'd like you to stay with me, sir," said the man. "I called you a busy just now, and you look like a busy. If any of them Connexe serve me with a busy they'll—"
They had just turned the cover into an even narrower street, and Lewing stopped suddenly. Four dark shapes, two on the pavement, two in the roadway, confronted them. Like surveyed them curiously. They all seemed to have caps drawn over their eyes; each man had both hands in his pockets.
"Here, what's the idea, Joe? Lewing's voice was a whine. "This gentleman is taking me around-" The leader of the four laughed harshly.
"You've got to have a busy with you, have you?" he said with an oath. "You can't satisfied with nosing on us Connors, but you got to carry Scotland Yard strapped under your arm. That's what I did." Like it only seemed that the man had edged a little closer to Lewing as he spoke. Lewing coughed and fell grogly against Luke.
"Get the busy," said a snarling voice.
Luke swung back but not quite in time. He saw the glitter of steel and felt as though a hot iron had been drawn across his breast; and then a curious weakness came on him, and he leaned back against the wall and gradually slipped into a sitting position. His last conscious impression was the clattering feet of running men; four dark shapes vanished into a greater darkness, and he was left alone, with something that sprawled across the pavement, staring with unseen eyes at the flickering light of the street lamps.

It was the thirteenth day after the disappearance of Luke Maddison, and a day of fate for his wife, since it put a period to the long and agonizing hours of doubt and uncertainty, of self-reproach that at times approached self-loathing. Twice she had been on the point of acquainting the police, and twice had Danny stopped her.
It was a time of worry for Dany also, but from quite another cause.
also, but from quite another cause. What had puzzled, and to some degree comforted her, was the fact that Mr. Stiles, the manager of Madison's Bank, had shown no particular anxiety. She guessed, or knew, that Luke had told him of her act, for when she had offered her check it had been almost peremptly refused. What she did not realize was that in the days before she became a factor in Luke Madison's life, and largely determined his actions, Luke was in the habit of disappearing into the blue. Invariably it was from Spain that Stiles had received a postcard notifying him of the imminent return of his employer. The country had a fascination for Luke Madison. He spoke the language like a native.

was one of the few Englishmen who understood and enjoyed the punctilious of bull fighting, and he loved nothing better than to retire to some lodging in Cordoba or Ronda and, making that his headquarters, rove the countryside for weeks on end.
Stiles was unteasy, but he had that hope left, that in this great crisis of his affairs Luke Maddison had good back to the scenes of his happy days.

You can hardly expect me to come back to you. In a few months I will furnish you with sufficient evidence to enable you to secure a divorce. I am not entirely without money, therefore I am not entirely without pleasant consolations.
It was signed "Luke," and had been handed in at Paris at eight-thirty that morning.
"That's that," she said. Her tone was light, but there was an agitation in her heart which she had not imagined possible.
Consolations! And this was Luke Maddison, the idealist—a vulgar philander, who had fled to consolations!
"I rather surprised that you got this," said Danton gravely.
"I shouldn't have thought he would have troubled to wire."
A few days later, on the center page of the Post-Herald Margaret saw the photograph of a haggard and unshaven man. It had evidently been taken in a hospital bed. His eyes were closed; the photograph just showed the edge of the sheet a few inches under his chin.
"Do You Know This Man?" demanded the glance at the letter-press, and saw that it had reference to a murder that had been committed in South London, and that he whose picture was shown had been present and had only escaped death by the narrowest of margins. Not even his dearest friend would have recognized Luke Maddison, for the photograph had not been taken until the eleventh day of his detention in hospital, and it had been taken in a very poor light.
They put Luke Maddison in a private ward, and one morning they left a little temperature chart within his view, and he saw that his name was Smith.
"How long have I been Smith?" His voice was extraordinarily strong, remembering that only a few days before he had not been able to speak above a whisper. The good-natured nurse grinned cheerfully. "If we don't know people's names we call them Smith—preferably Bill," she said. "But you're going to be good, aren't you, and tell us yours?" He shook his head. "No, don't think so. Smith is a very good borne by some very nice people. If my name had been Smith I might have been a better man" he added whimsically.
Since they had moved him into the private ward the burly-looking policeman who had loomed out of his dreams, and seemed part of them, had been taken away. That day they thought he was dying a police magistrate had been summoned to take his deposition; but he had told nothing which was of the slightest consequence or value. Moreover, he had heard one detective say to another that he would not be of the slightest value as a witness at the inquest, but with the hours pass, and the pale light of the sun move across the green wall, and night come and the lights.
He did not care really what happened after. It was his sixteenth or seventeenth day in bed—he was not sure which—when the sister came in.

Who would think that a lead pencil manufacturer, for instance, would be so jealous of the quality of his product as to invent, at a great cost, a whole series of special machines to put the matter of testing them on a strictly scientific basis, yet, the Eagle Pencil Company has done exactly that because it was not satisfied with the time-honored but inaccurate methods of testing by the human hand. Now the makers of Eagle pencils know, without any guess work, exactly how strong, smooth, flexible, and durable the leads its pencils are from testing devices that are absolutely correct and impartial. They know for instance, that the lead Mikado pencil will make a line at least 35 miles long, by a manual test in the machine which is illustrated here, and in which every user of leaf' pencils will be interested.

But how would you like to try telling the story of a red fox by merely looking at his pelt?
His life from the moment he sees eyes on his native habitat his birthplace, and livelihood even above and almost the hour of the death—are all facts revealed to an expert-trader with just chance at that fox pelt.
The entire life must then an animal is told in its pelt, according to Samuley Keshen, vice-president of A B Shuereh Inc., of Chicago largest fur house in the world dealing exclusively in American furs.
"Each of the thousands of consignments of raw furs that come to the Chicago center in Chicago yearly is different from the next," Mr. Keshen said.
"The fox, the mink, the raccoon all change their coats with the season. Men with the month. Our furriers must know at once the section from which an animal comes and the time when it was killed from their excrement. It takes from 10 to 16 years experience to produce an expert furrier. Most of the men spend years learning to judge furs of one species section of the country. But after they've learned, they can sort and grade about 3500 to 4000 skins daily in mixed shipments from other countries. This is no mean task since more than 25 kinds of saw American furs come to

THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY
AL DESSAU & LOEB (famous creators of smart frocks for smart Americans) say:
"The new clothes reflect the spirit of the age."
NEW YORK: The important question as to whether or not women would accept the new fashions has been solved.
Paris and New York have welcomed change, perhaps with a certain reserve for day clothes, for they were weary of the straight silhouette worn for the past years.
present-day clothes; however, are difficult to select. Beware of too many fussy details or extremes of any kind, for there are many pitfalls, and sane
orientation is needed. The creators of the 1930 styles have concerned themselves seriously, not only with the design of garments but also with materials of which they are made. Crepe Zuleika continues to be the outstanding favorite, a smart new fabric. In the models illustrated above it will be noted that the designers wisely adopted the modified silhouette—rather than the plain one—that a general approval will meet with general approval because good taste rarely; if ever, approves of the bizarre of the unduly conspicuous. Bows give no indication of an intention to remove themselves from the style picture. They appear with great frequency in collections, tying a belt or

Trimming details are stressed to promote a feeling of femininity, collars of embroidered lace soften the neckline in frocks of crepe. Beading is another feature and method of outlining the neck. The long sleider liner also occurred through the use of flaring ties, posed at a low hipline and repeated below the lines in a deep flounce. The skirt itself is slim, and its long slenderness is bound through the flaring expression, the circularly cut tiers.

NEW YORK—Capitalizing the prestige of years of newspaper advertising, the Autostop Safety Razor company here, entering the razor blade field with a new product, did three times the business officials expected in the first month their probab blade was on the market, according to Charles M. Pritzker, advertising manager, in an address here.
"Though we believed that trade and consumer good will as achieved through the columns of the press was worth a great deal, the company did not appreciate by one-third the actual dollar and cents value," declared Mr. Pritzker. "Eight years of research were required before we produced the new blade. Then we conducted a month's test. We packed the blades in a distinctive type of package, and we released three distinct campaigns, the first, modest, the second, sensational, and the third, conservative.
"From the first we found that our
nature gained by years of new in-
terest, readily gained lobbies and
truce. We obtained in-

cused, a proverb."

THE FAMILY DOCTOR BY JOHN JOSEPH GAINES, M.D. TEETH
I wish I knew how many millions of dollars are being spent annually on the teeth of Uncle Sam's men and women; I imagine the sum would be staggering!
Doubtless tons of human teeth are extracted each year, regardless of the age of the victims. That most of these teeth are diseased, I do not doubt; there may be excellent reasons for the massacre of the molars; but, it would seem to be high time for a study of the conditions underlying; the "why" of the dental necrosis, the abscess, the caries, the pyorrhea.
It is a fact that our progenitors and racial neighbors long before us, had better teeth than we have. Explorers into darkest Africa have told us of the beautiful white teeth of natives; in fact about the only beautiful thing about the Hottentots, the Arab, the Zulu and others, seemed to be the teeth... Why? They lived on the coarsest food imaginable; "tooth paste" was unheard of—and tooth brushes! Dentists! A Congo maid would be crazy to even think of such an utter absurdity!
No, it has been allotted to civilization to visit on its advenients the tragedy of the teeth, not to mention dozens of the more serious diseases. How has the feat been accomplished? First, as to food. Rough, coarse food is an excellent substitute for the tooth-brush. A bag of wholesome pop-corn is good dentifrice; eating apples the old-fashioned way is mighty good tonic for teeth and gums. The mastication of the right kind of substances was, doubtless, intended by the Creator to be all the "treatment" the teeth and gums needed. It is generally when man tries to improve on His methods, that the traitor falls down.
There is no doubt in my mind that, the dirty tooth brush is responsible for more cases of pyorrhea than any other one thing. More than this, the incessant scrubbing of the teeth is harmful to a most pronounced degree; and a neglected bowel is a prolific source of disease that may extend to the remotest part of the human structure.

So much outside. Inside, a blazing lobby, flanked by marble stairways. Upstairs, an enormous dance hall the length of a city block. Low ceilings blushing pink with rows of inverted dome-lights. A broad dancing area, bounded on three sides by a wide soft-carpeted promenade, on the fourth by an ample platform accommodating the two orchestras. People. Flesh. A fly-thick jam of dancers on the floor, grimly jostling each other; a milling herd of thirsty-eyed boys, moving slowly, searchingly over the carpeted promenade; a congregation of languid girls, lounging in rows of easy-chairs here and there, bodies and faces unconcerned, dark eyes furtively alert.

Bus Williams's jolly round brown face beamed down on the crowd as he directed his popular hit—She's Still My Baby:
You take her out to walk
And give her baby-talk.
But talk or walk, walk or talk—
She's still my baby!
But the cheese-colored countenance of Fessenden Baxter, his professional rival, who with his orchestra occupied the adjacent half of the platform, was totally oblivious to She's Still My Baby.
Baxter had just caught sight of a girl, and catching sight of girls was one of his special accomplishments. Unbelief, wonder, amazement registered in turn on his blunt, bright features. He passed

Beyond the brass rail that limited the rectangular dance area at one lateral extreme, there were many small round tables and clusters of chairs. Bus Williams and the youngest hostess occupied one of these tables while Fess Baxter's Firemen strutted their stuff.
Bus ignored the tall glass before him, apparently endeavoring to drain the girl's beauty with his eyes; a useless effort, since it lessened neither her loveliness nor his thirst. Indeed the more he looked

the less able was he to stop looking. Oblivious, the girl was engrossed in the crowd. Her amber skin grew clearer and the roses imprisoned in it brighter as her merry black eyes danced over the jostling company.
"Think you'll like it?" he asked.
"Like it?" She was a child of Harlem and she spoke its language "Boy, I'm having the time of my life. Imagine getting paid for this!"
"You ought to get a bonus for beauty."
"Nice time to think of that—after I'm hired."
"You look like a full course dinner—and I'm starved."
"Hold the personalities, papa."
"No stuff. Wish I could raise a loan oh you. Baby—what a roll I'd tote."
"Thanks. Try that big farmer over there hoofin' it with Sister Full-bosom. Boy, what a side-show they'd make!"
"Yea. But what I'm lookin' for is a leadin' lady."
"Yea? I got a picture of any lady leadin' you anywhere."
"You could. Jean."
"Be yourself, brother."
"I ain't bein' nobody else."
"Time, papa. Stay out of my past."
"Sure—if you let me into your future."
"Speaking of the orphanage—?"
"You wouldn't know it now. They got new buildings all over the place."
"Somehow that fails to thrill me."
"You always were a knock-out, even in those days. You had the prettiest hair of any the girls out there—and the sassiest hip-switch."
"Look at Fred and Adele Astaire over there. How long they been doing blackface?"
"I used to watch you even then. Know what I used to say?"
"Yea. 'Toot-a-toot-toot' on a bugle."
"That ain't all. I used to say to myself, 'Boy, when that sister grows up, I'm going to —'."
Her eyes grew suddenly onyx and stopped him like an abruptly reversed traffic signal.
"What's the matter?" he said. She smiled and began nibbling the straw in her glass.
"What's the matter, Jean?"
"Nothing, Innocence. Nothing.
Your boy plays a devilish one-step,
doesn't he?"
"Say. You think I'm jivin', don't
you?"
"No, darling, I think you're selling insurance."
"Think I'm gettin' previous, just because I got you the job."
"Funny. I never have much luck with jobs."
"Well I don't care what you think, I'm going to say it."
"Let's dance."
"I used to say to myself, 'When that kid grows up, I'm going to ask her to marry me.'"
She called his bluff. "Well, I'm grown up."
"Marry me, will you, Jean?"
Her eyes relented a little in admiration of his audacity. Rarely did a sober aspirant have the courage to mention marriage.
"You're good, Bus. I mean, you're good."
"Every guy ain't a wolf, you know, Jean."
"No. Some are just ordinary meat-hounds."
From the change in his face she saw the depth of the thrust, saw pain where she had anticipated chagrin.
"Let's dance," she suggested again, a little more gently.

They had hardly begun when the number ended, and Fess Baxter stood before them, an ingratiating grin on his Swiss-cheese-colored face.
"Your turn, young fellow," he said to Bus.

"It's always been one of my ambitions," said Baxter, "to dance with a sure-enough angel."
"Just what I'd like to see you doin'." grinned Bus.
"Start up your stuff and watch us." said Baxter. "Step on it, brother. You're holding up traffic."
"Hope you get pinched for speedin'," said Bus, departing.

Abruptly, as if someone had caught and held his right arm. Bus's baton halted above his head. His men kept on playing under the impulse of their own momentum, but Bus was a creature apart. Slowly his baton drooped, like the crest of a proud bird, beaten. His eyes died on their object and all his features sagged. On the floor forty feet away, amid the surrounding clot of dancers, Jean and Baxter had stopped moving and were standing perfectly still. The girl had clasped her partner close about the shoulders with both arms. Her face was buried in his chest.
Baxter, who was facing the platform, looked up and saw Bus staring. He drew the girl closer, grinned, and shut one eye. They stood so a moment or an hour till Bus dragged his eyes away. Automatically he resumed beating time. Every moment or so his baton wavered, slowed, and hurried to catch up. The blues were very low-down, the nakedest of jazz, a series of periodic wails against a background of steady, slow rhythm, each pounding pulse descending inevitably, like leaden strokes of fate. Bus found himself singing the words of this grief-stricken lamentation:
Trouble—trouble has followed me all my days.
Trouble trouble has followed me
Trouble—trouble has followed me all my days—
Seems like trouble's gonna follow
Seems like trouble's gonna follow me always.
The mob demanded an encore, a mob that knew its blues and liked them blue. Bus complied. Each refrain became bluer as it was caught up by a different voice: the wailing clarinet, the weeping C sax, the moaning B' flat sax, the trombone, and Bus's own plaintive tenor:
Baby—Baby—my baby's gone away.
Baby—baby—my baby's gone away—
Seems like baby—my baby's gone to stay.
Presently the thing beat itself out, and Bus turned to acknowledge applause. He broke a bow off in half. Directly before the platform stood Jean, alone, looking up at him.
He jumped down. "Dance?"
He jumped down. "Dance?"
"No. Listen. You know what I said at the table?"
"At the table?"
"About—wolves?"
"Oh—that—?"
"Yea. I didn't mean anything personal. Honest I didn't." Her eyes besought his. "You didn't think I meant anything personal. did you?"
"Course not." He laughed. "I know now you didn't mean anything." He laughed again. "Neither one of us meant anything."
Her eyes lifted, widened, fell. "Oh," she said. "Neither one of us meant—anything."
With a wry little smile, he watched her slip off through the crowd.
From his side of the platform Bus overheard Fess Baxter talking to Perry Parker. Baxter had a custom of talking while he conducted, the jazz serving to blanket his words. The blanket was not quite heavy enough tonight.
"P. P., old pooter, she fell."
Parker was resting while the C sax took the lead. "She did?"
"No lie. She says, 'You don't leave me any time for cash customers.'"
"Yea?"
"Yea. And I says, 'I'm a cash customer, baby. Just name your price.'"
Instantly Bus was across the platform and at him, clutched him by the collar, bent him back over the edge of the platform; and it was clear from the look in Bus's eyes that he wasn't just being playful.
"Name her!"
"Hey—what the hell you doin'!"
"Name her or I'll drop you and jump in your face, I swear to—"
"Nellie!" gurgled Fessenden Baxter

The music had stopped, for the players had momentarily lost their breath. Baxter swore and impelled his men into action, surreptitiously adjusting his ruffled plumage.
The crowd had an idea what it was all about. and many good-naturedly derided the victim as they passed:
"'Smatter, Fess? Goin' in for toe-dancin'?"
"Nice back-dive, papa, but this ain't no swimmin'-pool."
Curry, the large, bald, yellow manager, also had an idea what it was all about and lost no time accosting Bus.

"No. Tryin' to stop somethin'."
"Well if you gonna stop it with your hands, stop it outside. I ain't got no permit for prize fights in here—'Course, if you guys can't get on together I can maybe struggle along without one of y' till I find somebody."
Bus said nothing.

Very recently Mrs. Maggie Mitchell Walker engineered the merger of
Richmond’s two banks and thereby became chairman of the board of
directors of the combined institutions. .She is_a native daughter of
Virginia, Richmond being her home.
The recent merger of Mrs. Wa:ker’s own bank, in no way detracts

W very rare indeed. It is quite possible to go through
a whole lifetime without seeing one. The reason
the subject of this sketch deserves special mention is be-
cause she is the only woman bank president in the United
States who has a drop of African blood in her veins. And
there is every reason to believe she is the only one in
the whole world of her racial persuasion who presides over
a bank directorate. When an individual happens to be one
in 15,000,000 to fill an unusual and difficult position with
brilliant success it is natural and fitting to call attention to
his or her career.

Later on, the legislature of Virginia
enacted a law which forced the sep-
aration of secret orders and ‘heir
banks, and the name was changed
to the St. Luke’s Bank and Trust
Co. Under the presidency ot Mrs.
Walker this bank is conceded to be
one ot the best panne financial
institutions in the United States
When the bank was established it
had a deposit of only $8,000, which

Jack’s romances were not as numerous as
they were intensc. Two colored girls played
a very large part in his life. They were
Clara Kerr and Etta Reynolds. With the for-
mer he became very deeply infatuated.
As you pass the corner. of First
and Marshall streets in Richmond,
Virginia, you may see the St.
Luke's Bank and Trust Co., of which
Mrs. Maggie Mitchell Walker is
president. Twenty-six years ago, at
the suggestion of this woman, a bank
was started under the name of the
St. Luke Penny Savings Bank. She
was then secretary of the Indepen-
dent Order of St. Luke (grand sec-
retary-treasurer of the order, she
was called), and she persuaded the
directors and members of that or-
ganization, that it would be a good
thing to establish a bank which
could invest a part of the idle funds

Clara ran away with a horse trainer who was

far better than was that of many a

was the head waiter of the far-

rung on the ladder as men of the
colored group could then hope to
reach. He provided a comfortable

After her father’s death the daugh-
ter’s condition in life was compe
changed. A heavy respon bility
was placed pan her shoulders. Her
mother had her two children, a son

more money taking in washing than
by engaging in anything else, and
this she resolved to do on as large

Walker's life without referring to
this organization as it would be to

The Independent Order of St.

Maryland, in 1867 by Mary Prout,
who had been a slave, shortly after
the emancipation proclamation set
her free. All around her she saw
the newly emancipated slaves in

But the straw which seemed to break the camel's back was the sudden resignation of the man who had served it as secretary for thirty years, from 1869 to 1899. When he handed in his resignation and refused absolutely to serve another minute, the members of the order feared that its last days had come The reasons assigned by the secretary for refusing to hold office any longer were sufficient to discourage the most confirmed optimists among the membership.
In the first place, he told them that there was no money in the treasury. The order was not spreading fast enough, he said. He complained also that there was a fatal lack of co-operation between grand officers and those of the subordinate councils. And last, but certainly not least, the salary of $300 a year was too small, he averred. As if that were not enough to make the stoutest heart quail, the abdicating secretary informed the order that there was only $31.60 in the treasury, and unpaid bills amounting to $400!
Maggie Walker Unafriad
If a bomb had been thrown into the meeting at which the information was furnished, it could scarcely have caused more terrifying dismay. In the midst of this chaos and confusion, while many were predicting that the order could not possibly survive the fatal blow which the secretary had dealt, Maggie Walker was elected to succeed him. To make the office just as undesirable as possible, the salary was reduced from $300 to $100 a year.
Nothing daunted, however, the new secretary buckled on the armor and went to work. No sooner had she entered upon her duties than the organization took on new life and began to grow by leaps and bounds The new secretary's personal magnetism, her earnestness, her marked ability as a clear, forceful, persuasive speaker and her keen business acumen enabled her to work wonders in building up the organization in a very short time.
The $31.66 which Mrs. Walker found in the treasury when she was elected thirty years ago has now increased to more than $500,000. And that, too, in spite of the fact that nearly $2,000,000 in death claims have been paid. The membership has grown from a little more than 3,000 to 103,000 women, men and children. The old building which formerly was used as headquarters has disappeared and a handsome, modernly constructed four-story brick office building has taken its place. Moreover, the order employs sixty men and women in the office and has a full force of one hundred and ten. It is chartered under the laws

"Spare the Rod and Spoil the Child"
—Vicious Propaganda
In every go-ahead community, schools have done away with hurting the bodies of youngsters in order to make them do as teachers want them to. Teachers are being
trained not to want to make children do things they hate to do just because a grown person thinks it is good for them. The teachers in the best schools, feel they are there to guide the child into developing naturally into a strong man or woman who does not fear to express himself in word is how the modern her job. On the ren are looking the face and cheering to understand

things about them, and the schools, almost everywhere, are doing their bit toward this end.
But, how different is the picture in the average home! Whipping, slapping and knocking children about is still the common practice with most parents. Parents cannot be urged too often to stop and consider toward what end they are rearing children. What is the result they are after? So many times you hear a mother say: "I'm an old-fashioned mother. My mother reared me that way and I'm not going to let my children get ahead of me. They know I'll beat them." etc.
Now, is life just the same in our times as in those of our mothers? All about, things are different. "Spare the rod, etc" is as much out of date for these times as the tallow candle. We have moved along swiftly. We need good nerves, plenty of courage and independence to succeed these days. Will beatings give children any of these? The answer is "No." A parent must decide whether he is rearing his children to be slaves — humble, fearful people. If so the rod is a great help toward this end.
You may be sure you will not cow your child or brutalize him if you beat him often and long enough. With or without cause, he will hate any one stronger than he. He'll long for the day when he's big enough to pay back in like coin. Or, he will lie and deceive you in order to escape beatings. If he is a spirited child, he will become a bully with smaller children, just in order to

other child of Mrs. Walker's brain. She has been instrumental in having the board of trustees recommend the establishment of such a fund so that the young members of the order may "complete a practical education," provided they have been members of the organization one year, are recommended by their teachers and by their local circles also. "The loan will not be granted for a term longer than five years and the amount loaned may range from $50 to $300, provided the applicant signs a note to repay the obligation, so that some other young man or woman may receive assistance in the future."
One of the greatest services Mrs. Walker has rendered the order of St. Luke was to found the juvenile department. That was done in 1895 one of the first things she did after joining it. Having started with 8,060 children, the membership has increased to more than 20,000.
The celebration of the twentieth anniversary of Mrs. Walker's services as the "Right Worthy Grand-Secretary-Treasurer of the Independent Order of St. Luke" was one of the most remarkable ever observed in the United States. The resolutions read on that occasion declared that Mrs. Walker "has brought the organization to a state of prosperity beyond the fondest dreams of its founders." "There hath not arisen a greater soul nor abler executive than our present right worthy grand secretary-treasurer" was one of the declarations made.
The members resolved further that "in order to show the depth of appreciation which this anniversary represents we remove from her heart the embarrassment of re-election quadrennially and hereby recommend the suspension of the rule bearing on the election of secretary-treasurer during her natural life for the good she has done and for the good we believe she will do to the last moment of her earthly existence. No other person in this order has so unqualifiedly earned this reward, this exception to our history, and we give it in the name of God and her devoted co-workers. Amen."
Then, to give tangible evidence of their gratitude and appreciation the order increased Mrs. Walker's compensation to $500.00 monthly, "which is but fair," the resolution states, "since the work under the new plan is doubled and the responsibility is greatly increased over the former years. Another reason for this increase in salary is the high cost of living. The preservation of dignity of our grand order demands

thing about the modern methods of
fasting as a means of helping to keep
the body in perfect health. -
I am glad to do this for the sim-
ple reason that fasting is something
‘that almost anyone can do if given
‘the proper instructions and it repre-
sents practically no expense and very
little imconvenience. The idea of
fasting is based on the ‘act that the
‘food that we eat contains a certain
amount of waste matter. This waste
matter if not properly eliminated
trom the body, accumulates and as
‘a result creates a diseased or in-
flamed condition.
Now you know that it you were
firing a furnace and stopped putting
fuel on the fire, your fire would soon
be gone. The same thing applies to
the condition of the-body where a
fast is necessary. When you stop
putting food into the body you stop
furnishing the material ‘out ot
which the poison is created and a
cure is certain to result.
There is one difference though
between firing the turnace and feed-
ing the body. You could stop put-
ting in the coal all at one time but
you cannot stop eating anything and
everything without suffering a severe
internal shock that will be more de-
structive in its effect than the poison
that has accumulated. Therefore th=
starting of a fast is the most im-
portant thing.
Ordinarily the patient will drop
one meal a day. After going on this
way for two or three days, it is com-
paratively easy to cut down the other
two eal to about half what vou
ordinarily would eat at that time. In
order to keep the stomach well filled
however, an increasingly greater
amount of water is drunk each dav.

Instead of going immediately and
