NOTABLE ADDRESSES BY OFFICIALS OF HIGH STATION Free, Frank And Full Discussion Of Many Vital Issues Affecting Colored Americans, Characterize Representative Gathering----Personnel Of The Participants Washington, District of Columbia. By the authority and direction of the War Department and the Committee on Public Information, Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, called to Washington this week for a conference, thirty or forty representatives of important Colored newspapers of the country, together with a number of the leaders of thought and opinion among the Negro people, to consider methods by which the millions of Colored people, of the nation may best assist in the winning of the war. Proceedings Marked by Dignity and Unity The conference formally opened on Wednesday morning, June 19, in the main auditorium of the new building of the Department of the Interior, 18th and F Streets northwest, at 10:30 o'clock, and continued throughout Thursday and Friday, June 20 and 21. Mr. Scott presided at all of the sessions which were marked by an earnestness of purpose, a broad grasp of the questions at issue, and an unwavering loyalty to the face of the nation, as well as by an intense devotion to the highest interests of the Colored Americans for whom they came primarily to speak. The discussion covered a wide range and the conferences were given an opportunity to present their views, reflecting the state of mind of the Colored people of the country, with the utmost freedom and frankness, unhampered by parliamentary restrictions or any effort to direct opinion in any particular channel—save that of utilizing in the most effective manner every resource at the command of the race to bring victory to the American arms in its present struggle for liberty and world wide democracy. Mr. Scott's adamantly tempered addresses at various stages of the deliberations repeatedly ammonished the conferences to voice their sentiments fully and fearlessly, laying all grievances and suggestions for their reress upon the common altar, with the view of strengthening where needed the patriotism and morale of the Negro people. So fair and impartial were the rulings of the chair upon every point raised or principle enunciated; that at no time was a simple execution taken to them. ery connectivable shade of individual opinion was represented in the body, that there was from the outset a firm disposition to subordinate private and personal considerations to the general good, without regard to politics, crime, faction or section. This lofty aim was adhered to most religiously, rigidity of statement, harmony of thought and unity of action were the predominating features of the three days' session. The document, reported by the special committee appointed to summarize the expression or the conference as to the best plans for the mobilization of the resources of the 12,000,000 Negroes of the Republic in support of the war aims of the Government, was adopted by a unanimous vote, given heedfulness and enthusiasticalism. "America" was sung, with fervor and auction as final adjournment was table Addresses by Officials of High Station.

Secretary of War, Newton D. Baker in a recent interview, speaking with reference to alleged discrimination against Colored draffees, said, in part: "I have heard that draft boards in adjoining counties take a different view of practically identical facts with regard to Colored men; but the answer in all these cases is that a review is provided directly by the President, and all that is necessary for anybody to who thinks there is a grievance is to point it out to the War Department, and it will be investigated. If the draft boards act unfairly, we will correct their action. "The War Department will break no discrimination, and any cases of alleged or suspected discrimination brought to our attention will be investigated, and any wrong done will be righted."

The St. Louis men who were sent to Camp Punson April 29 leave at travel in France. Several cards received by relatives and friends in St. Louis this week indicate that very little training was given in this country and the boys sailed within six days of the time they were called from St. Louis. It is the plan of the government to give the bulk of the training in France as it has been behind that better time can be made in fitting the men for active service. Among the men who left St. Louis in April were hulled to Staten, who had been sent to Current Judge Grimson's court for nearly eight years, and Tagg Hartgraves, well known in the local writings as a dancer.

Ammontehill was made captive that from July 19 to July 20, 1860 Negro men from Mississippi will be sent to Camp Grant for military training. Last week several thousand men were sent into the camp from Mississippi. Praignos that the camp was the train quarter of North and South Georgia contingents. The Mississippi men appear to be unarmed above the Carolina men in prison and imprisonment. They are more alert and more readily get an idea of what is exposed of them. A large number of the men selected from the Southern states have been discharged. Because of physical unfitness. It appears that the South has deliberately waged a large number of black men who are in later, smaller even to earn their own livelihood. The expenses of bringing the men heroes of feeding them while here and of ultimately ending their task to their homes is a tremendous task for the Government in points of both time and money. It has been announced that Camp Grant will be one of the permanent training places for youth after the war is over. The North Infantry constituted largely of North, and South, Carolina which is now reported in France.

CHURCHES FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH Despite the illness of our pastor, Rev. Maxwell, which made it impossible for him to deliver the sermons that were published last week, we had soul stirring gospel from other ministers. Rev. J. H. Parker delivered a very interesting sermon Sunday morning. At night Rev. J. A. Gomez, the general secretary of the State Convention, trenched a conberial sermon. At this writing Pastor Maxwell is much improved and will endeavor to deliver the sermons, Sunday morning theme: "Sowing and Reaping." Evening: "The Weight That Hangs on Jesus." For mental and spiritual strength bear these sermons. The Sunday school asked by all the auxiliaries of the church will give its annual picnic. Tuesday, July 16, 1918, at O'Fallon Park, ground No. 1. Mus. by the Simms Band. Hot limches, Cone and enjoy a pleasant day with the First Baptist. ST. PAUL A. M. E. CHURCH NOTES Sunday was red letter day at the above named church. It had been rumored that Bishop Parks would preach for us Sunday morning and we can truthfully say that standing room was at a premium. In well chosen words our beloved pastor, Dr. W. B. Johnson, presented Bishop Parks, the hero, of the 8th Episcopal District. He selected for his trust, St. John, 12th chapter and 20th verse which reads, "If any man serve me, him will my Father honor." Sunday has been set apart as Young People's fidelity Day and "true service in every way" was the theme of the good Bishop. It has come to us from all sections of the country of the powerful sermons prescribed by the Bishop here before; but without any exaggeration his sermon Sunday morning elicited any ever delivered in the state of Missouri. The young and old were fed to their full satisfaction. Service to the Master and service to the country, especially during this period, were some of the sparks that flow from the burning anvil. In speaking of church service, the Bishop informed his hearers that the number of years in the church counted for nothing unless the life was a shining light for the Master. You must stand for God or Satan, there is no middle ground. Not only should one be upright in his life but in his thoughts also and the supermost thought in anyone's mind should be to glorify God. The man who lives most is the man who loves his fellowmen most and who is always ready to help his weaker brother. The impression made by the Bishop Sunday morning will never, never be forgotten. As he is growing in age, he is growing in the grace, knowledge and power of the Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ, Dr. Parks easily takes his place now as a preacher along with Bishops Ward, Wayman, Disney and others of renown asulpheeers. Long may he live to render service to man, his country and his God. At 3 p.m. Mrs. Jones, superintendent of the Primary Department, went "over the top" with her children. Space will not permit me to pay Mrs. Jones the credit that is due her for the part she is playing in the Sunday school. Her name will live forever. The exercises were all that could be hoped for. She is calling for more teachers in this department. Some young man or woman answer the call. Dr. W. R. Johnson was the recipient of a handsome traveling grip Tuesday night, presented to him by Stewardess Bangle J. and 4. and the Improvement Club, in the presence of a large class and the Bishop. Takes by surprise the Pastor soon got himself together and resisted in a way, commemorate to the occasion. Sister Hattie Williams made the presentation speech. The spirit of Christian fellowship truly persuades the rank and file of old St. Paul. Some Sunday and witness $1,400.00 that will be laid on the table in response to the Pastor's request.

Dixon, pastor; Mrs. G. Miller, reporter. MT. ZION BAPTIST CHURCH There is a great spiritual awakening among the members of Mt. Zion Baptist Church. Our pastor is preaching wide awake sermons and many are igniting the fold of Christ each sabbath. The auxiliaries of the church are working as never before. Last Sunday, they raised $116.60 and are planning to do greater things in the future. We have done some repair work on our church and expect to do more as time rolls on. Next Sunday the pastor's subject will be "Sanctification vs. Cranktification." You are invited to come to Zion Sunday at 10 o'clock and hear this live subject. Remember, ours is a friendly church, 2625 Morgan Str. Our membership has about reached the five hundred mark and the Lord is adding people daily such as shall be saved. Rev. William Henry Harris is practically a new man in the city, but he is making himself felt under the influence of the Holy Spirit. Mrs. Mary Wheatly, reporter. MT. OLIVE BAPSTIST CHURCH 1429 N. 12th St. The pastor filled his rostrum on last Sunday, selecting Matt. 25.6 for the text, "And at midnight, there was a very made. Behold the beidgroom cometh." So vividly was this exciting moment portrayed an expectant hush fell on the audience as though it was the living thong that waited long ago. Realism, earnestness and hidden fires mark all of our pastor's sermons, the people's hearts being keeled for the master touch one must feel the sway of religious forces here. At night while awaiting the arrival of Rev. J. K. Parker, the pastor gave a short discourse, that was a live, thrilling and soul-satisfying topic "Faith." The faith of three Hebrew captives. Dan. 3:17. Later Rev. Parker arrived In order to meet the rapidly growing patronage, the CAFE has been enlarged in horseshoe formation and elaborately decorated through, which is well appointed and cosy. and selecting "Prayer" for a topic gave us a short but tremendous electrical storm and before we could get righted in our seats preparatory to feasting_____. As Christ appeared to his followers as they held council in a closed and locked room so came and went this beloved brother, but we entreat him to come again soon. All are welcomed here to our live and growing church. TRUE LIGHT BAPTIST CHURCH We kindly thank, the pastors and members of various churches, also our many friends for their liberal contribution, on last Sunday in our great rally at the Pleasant - Green Baptist Church. We succeeded in raising the amount of $884.06. Considering all things together we feel safe to say that the Lord has wonderfully blessed us, spiritually and financially. Rev. R. C. Clopton, pastor. Carrie M. Fletcher, clerk. LANE TABERNACLE The Sunday school has made preparation to entertain a large crowd at the picnic, which will take place Thursday, July 18. The superintendent and teachers have been busy for several weeks and have about completed their arrangements. The Sunday school is asking every church member to make a resolution to attend the picnic, and assures them that they will certainly enjoy it. One hundred dollars have been allowed to defray expenses. Everything in the way of refreshments will be served, and also a menu for those not earing to bring their dinner. There will be music all day, by the Pythian Band, and besides there will be many things for recreation, product, baseball, sack races, potato races, fat and lean races. Rumor has it that Mr. Henry Marsh and John Reed will be among those in the fat men's race. Prizes will be given to all the winners. Much interest is taken in the Marathon races between the ladies. Last year the prize was won by Mrs. Alice Foster. All of those who have never attended our Sunday school picnic should make it their business to be present. There will be soft drinks, lemonade and plenty of cool water to drink. Everything will be sold at cost, as the superintendent says it is not the Sunday school's intention to make a large amount of profit but the aim is to make everybody happy. Come out and redefine in the shade of the large oak trees. A picnic is not merely for children but grown ups as well. Don't think-you are too old to come to a Sunday school picnic. Rev. Smith says we are what we think; if you think you're old you are old. Donald Davis was a growing hunter at the age of 103. At the age of 625 years Methuselah was too young to keep late hours. We pass trees every day over 200 years old and yet they are growing. Think youth and come along to the picnic. The St. Louis delegation arrived at Mounds, Tuesday noon. Mr. J. W. Jacebs presides at convention. Mrs. R. H. Maupin responded to the welcome address. We are glad to have you welcome us to your city, to your homes, and to your hearts, she said. Strangers know they are welcomed by the warmth with which they are received. We are here to represent St. Louis, Lane Tabernacle, and to do anything we can for the advancement of the Colored Methodist Church, said the St. Louis delegate. The St. Louis delegation holds the district banner, which was won in Cairo last year. It is not yet known just what the convention will offer for a prize this year, but we can rest assured that if there is any decoration forthcoming Lane Tabernacle will get its share. Rev. Smith and his entire delegation will be here Sunday.

There is certainly something peculiar about a gang of Southern fire eaters, which to our mind, borders on the ridiculous. These (mis)representatives of the solid South have a wholesome hate for Negro men and a wholesome love for Negro women. Some of these color camouflageists are so bitter toward the Negro men that they do not hesitate to give full endorsement to noob law. Their indifference in the upholding of law and order gives one the impression that they are quietly backing up a propaganda of extermination in order that their unholy lusts may reign supreme. The littleness of Southern gentlemen (?) is brought out in all of its reality by their attitude of hate toward the poor, defenseless Negro NEGRO NEWSPAPERS AND THE WAR That the United States Government recognizes the newspapers of this country as being of vital importance, was paramountly evident, when the editors of 30 leading publications owned and controlled by Negroes were called to Washington, to be in conference with the heads of the War Department. This honor should establish beyond all doubt the men whom the government looks upon as being the leaders in thought and opinion. True, there are many leaders of sects and classes, but the men who edit the great newspapers are the ones who mold public opinion, sway sentiment, make presidents, breaks senators and contribute largely to the destiny of nations. The press has always been a potent factor in nourishing and sustaining the high morale of our troops. The press is the bulwark behind the hopes of our civilian population. The press is ever on the side of right, and, notwithstanding the bitterness of color caste and race prejudice the Negro press has never given up its fight for right, nor its plea for justice. In the face of seemingly unsurmountable obstacles, suffering the criticism of those for whom it is ever fighting, the Negro press, with its unwavering devotion to the cause of right, is just beginning to enter into the brilliancy of the sunlight that comes from a duty well done. The editors of the Negro papers, who were called to Washington, to deliberate upon the destiny of a race and the welfare of a nation have been signally honored by the nation of which they and their people are a vital part. WASHINGTON OFFERS PRAYERS FOR VICTORY AND PEACE EVERY DAY AT NOON The people of Washington, D. C., observe 12 o'clock each day as a special time to offer prayers for victory and peace. A committee, so formed as to be representative of all the people without regard to religious denominations, creed, sect or race promoted this observance, according to John G. Capers, chairman of the committee. The President has authorized the heads of all government departments to sanction this observance through their chief clerks. The Secretary of War permitted a signal for the ringing of the bells to be fired from the top of an office building. The District Commissioners issued a statement giving their sanction to the observance. This sanction carried authorization through the Public Utilities.

WILLIAMS A woman suffrage reached a climax Mississippi, better known as John reason for opposing the suffrage ers, who have gained notoriety.

These posters call the attention of the police to the necessity of prayer for the success of our Allies and our enduring peace. DETROIT, MICH.

Seen By An Argus Eye Several hundred, white persons desired themselves the pleasure of witnessing the most spectacular feature of the Fourth of July Parade, by leaving while the Colored division was passing. The Colored participants did not bring up the race this time. The harried opening of the Bening-wed Lawton Playground will serve its purpose if the originators of the plan support the Colored People's choice for posture of the peace and constable in the August primaries. From the way the Democrats gathered the prizes from the new salary equalization tree there must be a third party in power in St. Louis. Our sympathy goes out to the low-salaried City Hall employee, who, during these high prices of food necessities and facing a coming hard winter with almost prohibitive prices on coal, is "requested" to donate to the luxury of an outsider. Why was the automobile class for men in the draft disbanded at Summer high school, June 12? Will the half-hundred boys who have and will go to camps get the credit promised them for the six weeks they spent in this department? Congressman L. C. Dyer has a remarkable capacity for service. He is attentive to all his constituents, he they too or, black of white. There is but the class of Americans with Dyer. All true Americans are in that class. If you are a prospective property buyer, you permit yourself to be influenced by a box of candy or an automobile ride. If you an expensive bribe. Aby Negro who fails to stand out boldly and fergushes for his race, first, and all the time, especially during the present crisis, is a traitor to the juke boys who have gone to the front to fight for democracy and justice. He is a betrayer of his kin and should be outranized from respectable consideration. PLAYGROUNDS The children in the neighborhood of the playgrounds recently opened at Easton and Leedingwell are showing great interest in the new breathing spot. Nearly two thousand attendance has already been reported. Mr. Gerald Tyler is in charge. He stated that some warts-saving activities would be carried on, such as cunning and other small things. One particular condition noticeable is that there was no tent nor any provision made for the little ones to get in the shade. Mr. Tyler explained that he had just put in a requisition for one. This playground was opened Saturday, June 29, with appropriate exercises. The Mayor and other city officials took part. DR. W. H. A.

NEGRO TRAINED NURSES WILL BE SENT ABROAD Following considerable agitation, during which charges of race discrimination on the part of authorities at Washington were made, Negro trained nurses are to be sent abroad to serve with the American troops. Mrs. Marie Cross Newhans, chairman of the Women's Civil Committee of Justice, stated in New York recently. Mrs. Newhans has just returned to New York recently from Washington, where she pressed her demand that Negro nurses, be given army service in interviews with Congressmen and War Department officials. She said she had received assurance that the Negro nurses would be allowed to tender their services. There are between 500 and 600 Negro trained nurses in New York City, alone, said Mrs. Newhans. Many have been ready and eager to serve abroad, but because of the alleged racial discrimination at the capital government permission so far has been withheld.

On the other hand, we have an increased supply of pork this summer, large enough to permit economical expansion in its use. It will there, forebe a direct service to our armies and to the Allies if our people will in some degree substitute fresh pork, bacon, hams and sausage for beef products.

CAPTAIN WHO DREW COLOR LINE OUSTED Attleth Ruck, Ark., June 28. By virtue of a telegraphie communication from the War Department, received at headquarters at Camp Pike today, Capt. Eugene C. Rowan, late of the One Hundred and Sixty-second Depot Brigade, was dismissed from the service. Capt. Rowan's case received considerable attention while it was before general court martial several months ago, because it was the first time the color line has figured in a National Army court. Capt. Rowan was charged with having refused to obey an order issued by the brigade commander calling for a troop formation because, it was asserted both Negro and white soldiers were included in the formation. The officer is a native of Georgia, but has recently lived in Mississippi. Capt. Rowan left Camp Pike this afternoon and said he hoped to go to Russia to assist in the reorganization of the Russian Army. He is a veteran of the Spanish-American war and a graduate of the first series of officers' training camps.

Pig Skins, Now Wasted, Good For-Shoes, Finest Saddlery, And Fancy Leather Articles There has been an enormous decrease in cattle and hogs in the United States and elsewhere. There are 4,000,000 fewer hogs, in this country than there were a year ago. Hogs play a most important part in the present crisis. The losses from cholera have been enormous, and the government is sending hog cholera experts into the states to help in the work of cholera control. There is one source of loss that should be considered, and it does not pertain to disease, writes George H. Glover of the Colorado Agricultural college. Leather is scarce, and in the countries that have been the longest in war, the scarcity of leather is possibly causing the most concern. Pig skins are wasted and they make the finest of leather. It has been tested, and found to be highly satisfactory for shoes and it makes the finest saddle, and fancy leather goods. The rind on pork chops is not necessary in the modern methods of curing meats. It is paid for by the consumer, is a total loss, and is a constant menace because of the fact that uncooked pork rinds in garbage spread hog cholera. Of all the domesticated animals the hog is the most prolific, makes the greatest gains, provides the greatest variety of food products, thrives on the greatest variety of foods, and ordinarily gives the quickest returns on the investment. At the present time nothing should be wasted. Why not save the plg skin? THE WORLD'S FIRST FAMILY ...Undertakers... When Good Service Is Desired Delmar 922 Lindell 5690 4107 FINNEY AVE. A.

RESOLUTIONS FROM THE CITY PEDERATION OF WOMEN'S CLUBS Endorsing the Good Workmanship and War Activity Efforts of Mrs. Victoria Clay Haley, Chairman of Colored Women's Unit Council of National Defense "The welfare of our country in the World-War Crises, depends upon those who have learned to do in the right way the things that ought to be done. And if we are to attain the goal for which our jobs are sacrificing their lives, if we are to share in the work of making the world safe for democracy, we must put the proper evaluation on good workmanship. So pursued to the organized effort of the Colored Women's Unit Council of National Defense of the city of St. Louis led by Mrs. Victoria D. Dukla, whose husband leadership and good workmanship is evidenced in the participation of our women in the various war legacies of our nation's war program, and further by the spindleid showing made by our citizens in the memorial Negro Loyalty day demonstration held at the Colored June, 16th, the news of which has been heralded by the press throughout the country. Therefore, Be it resolved, I. That we, the members of the Colored Women's Unit Council of New 1. That we, the members of the Colored Women's Unit Council of National Defense, on behalf of the citrus and our race protest our appreciation for this gigantic effort planned and arranged by Mrs. Halley. 2.

Little Hattie the four year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Pleas Thomas, of 2002-01-06 would have met with a horrific death last Monday afternoon, had it not been for the timely appearance of Douglas Kelley who heroically rescued the child and entangled a rapid blaze of fire which meant destruction to life and property. The cause of the fire is unknown. Thomas is a member of Ionie Masonic Lodge. Mr and Mrs Ford H. Hayes are domiciled in their beautifully appointed house 4122 Thinney Avenue.

They are usually poor representatives of any institution and more especially the institutions for moral uplift. Some of the type referred to have been recently placed in positions of honor (due to double crossing), and, as was expected, the other fellows have to do the work for them. It is said, that invariably such men are ushered into office without even being installed. Such conditions should not obtain, and, if continued will defeat the purpose of any organization. Merit should stand above prejudice and honor should go to whom it is due.

LOUIS ARGUS TO GROW LONG STRAIGHT HAIR You Need A Real Scalp Food There are so many so called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use edy of proven merit, Seedy's Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time. It is a real scalp food, it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired. To get the best results from the use of Quinasep, it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two to three weeks. Quinasep, Quinasep oil, is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils principally coconut oil, and is a thinner cleanser. Quinasep oilthers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and duffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but just on getting *Seeby*. Quinade and *Seeby's* Quinaseoap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 15 cents each if your drugstreet or doctor does not stock those two articles, ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler or send us the price and we will mail them to you. Write to *Seeby* Drug Co, 79 East 130th street, New York City, for a sample of Quinade, mentioning the name of this paper.—Ady PHOTO-PENNANTS.

AS NEAR AS YOUR TELEPHONE DISTANCE IMMATERIAL In a metropolitan city of this size, there are people who constantly suffer with their feet, and who try every remedy available; even old knives-and razors to obtain relief. Let the price you pay for these remedies be a business proposition and have the cause removed; it will benefit you in dollars and cents. Too often by trying every remedy and old instruments not only brings sorrow to the sufferer, but may bring misfortune and cause death to knock at your door. The time has arrived when we should book forward and not backward in caring for our feet. When nature put forth man upon the earth, every bone, muscle, nerve and ligament was normal, but most people transgress the laws of nature by abusing their feet with ill-fitting foot-wear and cause corns, bunions, ingrowners and many other growths to migrate there. My new system of extracting these growths without pain has won for me a nice practice in this city. My many years of practice and careful study of the foot is your assurance of good work. A call will convince you. DR. E. JUNIOR TURNER, chiropistol, 4257 w. Laladie Ave, phone Colafx 1097-J. Hours 8 to 10 a.m.; 2 to 3 p.m. Sunday by appointment. To a woman the most interesting thing about a man is his relation to women. His manner of loving—or refusing to love—is what really interests her. According to a writer in the New York Mall, when a woman meets a man she sizes him up, not as a lawyer or a musician, or an actor, but as lover. What sort of a husband would Says Miss Sydney Shields, once a newspaper woman, now an actress. "A certain physician, a friend of mine once told me that, other things being equal, a woman would in, pine cases out of ten choose a man who had loved many women in preference to a man who had loved none." Most scientists agree with this. I think it's Havelock Ellis who explains it in this wise: "Experience with many women gives a man's choice great value, and secondly, the more a man has shunned in this direction the greater the woman's chance to raise him to her own level. Every woman will admit that she prefers the man whom other women desire. As "Abe" Potash remarks, a woman looks on every other woman as a competitor. Even if other women don't really desire the husband whom she loves, she will still imagine they do; and women's imagination let loose is a fearful and wonderful thing. "I have discussed this subject with different kinds of women." The consensus of feminine opinion seems to be that the wholly imperfect and Romeo is a 'fill.' The man of the world knows how to make love, they say, and that's all important thing with women. He makes the beautiful woman an think that she is intelligent, and the intelligent woman think she is beautiful; he is of all times the master of the situation, and women, even modern ones, oblige a masterful man." BACK YARD POULTRY Uncle Sam expects you to keep hems and raise chickens, even though you do reside in a town or city. Two hems in the back yard for each person in the house will keep a family in fresh eggs. The smallest 'back yard' has room for a flock large enough to supply the house with eggs. The cost of maintaining such a flock is small. Table and kitchen waste provisional much of the feed for the hems and they require but little attention. An interested child, old, enough to take a little responsibility, can care for a few fowls as well as a growl person. Every back yard should contribute its share to a "bumper crop" of poultry and eggs in 1918. Perhaps not all will find it profitable to raise chicks in "down" but nearly everyone can well keep a few hens. The objection to the "crowding of the cock" can be overcome by keeping no cock. This will not affect egg production in the hens. The house for the back yard flock should be inexpensive. A piano box or other large box may readily be converted into a suitable residence for the hens, and the runs may be very small. Good hens, well cared for, will produce from ten to fifteen dozen eggs annually. In time of peace the back yard flock may be regarded as a profitable recreation; In time of war, a patriotic duty. Buy a few hens and start in at once. All hens are laying now or will be soon Some Postscripts. A small opening in one side of a new tobacco pouch enables pipes to be filled easily without waste. It has been gradually in increasing its production of liquids until last year more than 1,500,000 tons were mined. Engineers in Norway are planning to consolidate and unite several small waterfalls to obtain 200,000 hydropelic horsepower in one plant. A paper cap has been invented to be fastened to the end of a cigar as it is made to insure its sanitary condition and also to serve as an advertising blind. Half Million for Muskrat Skins. The annual fur auction at St. Louis closed with sales totaling approximately $25,500. A lot of 350,000 muskratrs brought $500,000. Many of the skins brought $150,000 each, an average price for gold pelts being 75 cents. A few years ago muskrat skins sold on the market as low as 5 cents each. A collection, of beaver brought $25 per skin and the small lot of marten from Alaska set a record price of $57 each. Extrudorulmarity high prices paid this year were said to be due to the high quality of fur. More than 350 buyers from all parts of the world attended the sale.
