SATURDAY, JULY 14, 1917 "Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature." —John Stuart Mill. PATRIOTIC MID-YEAR EDITION. This issue is the Patriotic Mid-Year Edition of THE APPEAL. THE APPEAL is an American news paper without any hyphen, prefix or suffix. The editor of THE APPEAL is an American without any hyphen, prefix or suffix. THE APPEAL believes that every person born in the United States is an American, should feel that he is an American and should be ready to sacrifice all of his possessions and even his life to defend the United States. In return for his loyalty to his native land, THE APPEAL believes that every American has the right to expect every right and privilege accorded to every other American. No land is a democracy in which there are two classes of citizens. These are the days that we should feel patriotic. One hundred and forty-one years ago the United States shook off the bonds of Great Britain and became independent. The Declaration of Independence states that "all men are created equal and endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights among which are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. After one hundred and forty-one years this ideal has not been realized and our much vaunted democracy is largely a sham, but some progress has been made. We are now at war and it is claimed that we are fighting for world-wide democracy, and in spite of the fact that many forces have been at work in recent years to retard the growth of democracy, THE APPEAL believes that the end of the war will find the United States further advanced in true democracy than may appear possible at the present time, and in spite of itself. Not only the United States but in the whole world we are about to enter an era in which the basic principle will be human brotherhood. WARNS AGAINST RACIAL HATRED. It is so unusual for a Christian minister to preach against racial hatred that THE APPEAL is pleased to note that one minister has the courage of his convictions. In his sermon last Sunday, Rev. H. E. Peabody, pastor of the South Congregational Church, in Chicago, said J. REFUSES TO BE JIMCROW BISHOP. Rev. James S. Russell of Lawrenceville, Va., Recently Appointed Suffragan, or Jim Crow Bishop, for Several of the Southern States, Has Declined the Honor (?) that racial hatred within the United States is more dangerous than all Germans outside this country. Dr. Peabody likened the East St. Louis massacre to the "atrocities of the unspeakable Turk in Armenia." there are autocrats who hope to use the name and seal of democracy as a means of obtaining political or economic privilege, they are doomed to disappointment. They are unchaining democratic forces that cannot be "Who would have believed that a massacre that reminds one of St. Bartholomew's night and of the atrocities of the unspeakable Turk in Armenia, could occur among our own fellow-citizens in East St. Louis?" "But, beware! The peril is nearer than that. The mutterings of the volcano are felt in Chicago. The single explosion is not the most significant thing. The race prejudice, contempt and hatred, working—working beneath—these are the hell below—and they find some lodgment in all our hearts; God help us. "There is far more danger to the republic from race hatred within our borders than from all the Germans put together." "Christian citizens of Chicago, think this thing through. Try to make up your mind beforehand what you will do and say when the earthquake and the volcano shall be around you. Our country is in dire need of clear heads and stout hearts—Christian hearts, both within and without." DEMOCRACY WILL GAIN. Prof. Charles E. Merriam in an article on the "War for Freedom," assumes that as a result of the present war both civil liberty and industrial democracy will be the gainers in every country in the world and the United States will be no exception. Here are some of the things he has to say: "Since the outbreak of the war democracy has achieved important successes, the significance of which may well be carefully weighed. "First in importance comes the overthrow of the Russian autocracy, and the substitution of democracy. Even the most optimistic friends of free government had not dared to hope for so swift and sweeping a victory as has actually been won. "In England labor has been recognized in the coalition cabinet, and upon all great industrial questions has been brought into close co-operation with the government. Home rule for Ireland is well on its way, and suffrage for women is apparently about to achieve its final success. "In Germany and Austria the rumblings of democracy are being heard, even above the roar of the cannon. The abolition of the three class system in Prussia; the rearrangement of the Reichstag districts, which have been unchanged since 1869; the grant of broader suffrage in Austria, are concessions which the ruling class must make to the people. "It is not possible to raise the flag of democracy, and organize a great crusade against autocracy, without advancing the line of democracy in every country in the world, whether on one side of the contest or the other. If I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. there are autocrats who hope to use the name and seal of democracy as a means of obtaining political or economic privilege, they are doomed to disappointment. They are unchaining democratic forces that cannot be quieted without full recognition of their position in society and the state. In the long run, both civil liberty and industrial democracy will be the gainers in every country in the world. America will be no exception." War is a horrible thing viewed from any angle, but good will come out of it and when it is over many of the old prejudices and distinctions which have cursed the world will have been burned away. SHOULD REDUCE BURDENS IN ' U. S. David R. Francis, American ambassador at Petrograd, has wisely issued a statement, in which he explains to the people of Russia the aims of the mission headed by ex-Senator Root. There is no person, says Mr. Francis, on the commission who desires to influence Russian internal affairs. This is intended to dispose of charges and insinuations that have been made in ultra-radical Petrograd organs. The mission has only two functions, the ambassador declares. One is further to elucidate the motives and objects of the United States in entering the war, and the other to "try to reduce the burdens and privations of the Russian people." While so much is being done to aid the Russian people, would it not be well to "try to reduce the burdens and privations" of certain classes of American people, who are in many respects greater sufferers than the Russians are. The congress of workmen's and soldiers' delegates at Petrograd has adopted a resolution condemning anti-Jewish agitations, in which it sees danger of a revolutionary movement. The resolution demands energetic opposition to all attempts at antisemitic agitation, and suppression of all propaganda of that nature. It seems that New Russia is outstripping the United States in democracy. THE APPEAL suggests that the Congress of the United States adopt a joint resolution or pass a law prohibiting the insidious propaganda against the colored people which has been carried on in the daily press for many years. --- Congressman Medill McCormick in a recent speech said that all here must be Americans. That's good talk but there are about 12,000,000 born here in the United States who are anxious to be Americans, but who are not permitted to be. They are deprived of their rights and treated with contempt 'while thousands of Teutonic traitors and alien enemies are given the greatest consideration. Charles Edward Russell, a member of the American Commission to Russia, appeals to the American people to help Russia build a republic. Perhaps in the years to come when the Russian republic has been built, some great Russian will aid the establishment in America a republic which knows neither race, creed nor color. The National Evangelistic Alliance of America has appealed to President Wilson that flags on public buildings be at half-mast on Sunday, July 29th, in memory of persons who lost their lives in the East St. Louis riots. More than 40,000 men are yet needed to fill U. S. Army ranks in the volunteer army. Colored men are not permitted to enlist and must wait for the draft. THE ILLINOIS HORROR Ashamed to Register From East St. Louis. (Chicago Daily American.) (W. Chicago Daily American.) W. R. Neal is manager of a hotel in East St. Louis, ill. Today when he registered at the Congress Hotel he gave his address as St. Louis, Mo. "I'm ashamed to say I came from East St. Louis," he told the clerk. Brought Disgrace on Lincoln's State. (From the Chicago Daily News.) Mob frenzy displayed in some of its most dreadful forms in East St. Louis yesterday has brought disgrace and just reproach upon the state of Abra ham Lincoln. The Most Disgraceful Outbreak. (From the Chicago Journal.) The East St. Louis affair is the most disastrous and disgraceful outbreak the state has known for a reason; perhaps the worst it has ever known. That it should come during the heat of a foreign war and on the eve of Independence Day make it still more ominous. The Law Itself on Trial. (From the Chicago Herald) East St. Louis, IL, the law itself are all on trial until this grim, terrible business is settled and settled rightly. Failure of justice means a vicious precedent that will plague the commonwealth for years to come. When the issue of law or anarchy is presented as plainly as in the orgy at East St. Louis there should be but one answer. The Shame of Illinois. (From the Chicago Tribune). The riot at East St. Louis is one of the worst blots on the good name of the worst community in our whole history. Illinois now has head in shame before this disgrace. We have no excuse. There can be no excuse for such a break down of the most primitive safeguards of civil government, for such betrayal of the first duty of ordered society. Will Sue for Damages. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, with former Judge Edward Osgood Brown of the appellate court president of the local chapter, is planning to institute suits under the Illinois statutes against the city of East St. Louis and St. Clair county for personal damages on behalf of the dependents of the Negro men and women who died at the hands of the incensed mobs in the orgy of murder and arson several days ago, and the statutes, the dependents have actioned against the city and the county for damages to the property, life and limb, the judgments to exceed $5,000 in each case. This means suits for nearly $1,000,000 when the final loss of the scores killed, the hundreds injured and the many homes destroyed is recorded. The Illinois Massacre (From the Chicago Evening Post.) "In oah town we don't let a niggh get off the train long enough to brush youghat coat, not even if he's a poor bullman." They'll tell you this in just these accents in some of the southern towns of Illinois. And it was from these towns that the militiamen took to "maintain order in East St. Louis." This is the whole story of the failure of the militia in the worst race riot that has disgraced Illinois since Lovejoy was martyred. Troops from Northern Illinois should have been sent into East St. Louis; troops from Illinois should not have been sent there. For the light zone of the Mason and Dixon line cuts across the central and southern portions of the state. Greatest Disgrace to State "I feel very strongly on the subject," said Judge Brown today. "In my opinion it is the greatest disgrace upon the name of the state of Illinois yet recorded. I'm very indignant. Our organization is watching the proceedings there, but we are waiting for the reports of the various investigations. I do not want to appear to criticize any one at this time. We have faith in Governor Lowden unearthing all the facts. At a meeting to be held in the near future we will decide what steps to take." The society will prosecute suits for damage against the city and county for each Negro killed or injured," said Dr. Chase Bentley, dentist at 25 East Washington Street. "The statutes are clear on the subject. We will go after the sheriff also if the facts prove our beliefs. "We are so astonished we can hardly express our feelings. It is most outrageous." Worse Than Belgium. New York, July 3—"Swift and severe punishment" for the East St. Louis mobs was demanded by the Socialist leader, William English Walling, in a telegram to President Wilson today. Such punishment is necessary, Walling said, because "of the dangerous effect of race riots in America on revolutionary Russia, South America and Japan." Walling characterized the uprising as the result of German agents' efforts to stir up a race war to keep American troops at home and partly the result of an attempt by the Southern states to keep the Negro under their thumb. Speaking as a member of the executive committee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Walling, in his telegram, said: "The international and military situation calls for immediate action. There must be swift and severe punishment for the mob. But this will not suffice. There should be an immediate presidential proclamation in the present military exigency that the full military power of the nation will be used in defense of the lives and liberty of our colored fellow citizens." One of the World's Most Famous Surge at the Dedication of Tawawa H Ohio. Dr. Williams w. Operate Success man WITH 'MARKED CARDS" WITH 'MARKED CARDS" THE DEAREST PROMISE IN THE WHOLE OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES IS THE PROMISE OF EQUALITY FOR ALL, REGARDLESS OF RACE, COLOR OR PREVIOUS CONDITION OF SERVITUDE. But it is not always pleasant for a Negro to read that promise. "Marked Cards." Nor will the Negro feel a thrill of promise when he comes to write down his name for service to his country. For his registration and makes a distinction of color. The man puts his name to that piece of postboard signifies that his life is at the disposal of this government in war. That should be enough. But no—the government asks that he shall specify his "color." Literally, this government is beginning with marked cards. We don't need to review the fine record of the African race in fighting the battles of the war; men have been in the front rank wherever there came an opportunity to serve. History yonges for that. And here, when we come to fight for democracy, we find distinctions drawn according to the color of a man's skin. Negroes have not fared well during the present national administration. They have disappeared from police office and Crow grip of the South has grown firmer. And NOW A JIM CROW REGISTRATION. Race and color in our "Army of Democracy." If we were to define democracy as applied to the army of a democratic nation, we should picture men of all races and all creeds grouped together in equality. A white millionaire's son might share a tent with a Negro and a Chinese. Btt-"color!"! The army and previous condition of servitude our apparently are to be recognized in our army of democracy. Blunder No. 1. But it must be wiped out. If an aristocratic snobbishness has drawn up the registration blanks, a demonstrationgency must later deny the distinction.

The New England Suffrage League, for manhood suffrage in the Southern states, founded by Rev. Wm. H. Scott of Woburn, Mass., in 1904, has vindicated its continuance for 13 years. It met in the 12th Baptist church and when its sessions closed at midnight with a reception in the vestry to delegates, after two executive sessions attended by nearly 100 delegates from eleven states and a crowded mass meeting that pulsated with earnest enthusiasm for the slogan, "A share in this world democracy for which our men must fight," there had been launched a National Colored Liberty Conference to make real that slogan. Not in years has this new England League had such a largely attended annual meeting, successful in spirit and in work. Editor Trotter was again re-elected president. Boston extended a royal welcome and the League's spokesman voiced with courage and ability the claims of the race to real democracy at home. Now let all get ready to attend the Colored Liberty Convention at Washington this fall. Calls of Nation to Give Colored Man His Rights "This country can never succeed under God in establishing democracy over the world while color caste and disfranchisement are so flagrantly practised at home," said William Munroe Trotter. "We Colored Americans" continued the speaker, who presided at the all-day session yesterday," now solemnly call-up upon the President and Congress and the people of the United States to affirm the Colored American to enjoy this world democracy for which the race must fight. We are not willing to help the rest of the world to enjoy liberty and democracy while our race is held in serfdom in the Southern states." A National Colored Liberty Conference charged with the work of calling a National Colored Liberty Convention at Washington in the fall was formed with these officers: The Officers Elected.

Commends Protest by Guardian and Planet—Race Will Protest Till White America Accords the Rights Which Belong to Every American Citizen—Steady Decline of Rights Under B. T. Washington Policy. (From the Boston Guardian.) Washington, D. C., June 1, 1917. Dear Mr. Trotter: I have just read in the last issue of the Guardian your editorial, including the editorial of Mr. John Mitchell of the Planet, in which he administers a very just and timely rebuke to Dr. Frissell for some things which he says in the last issue of the Southern Workman. Rights Declined Under Washington. It is amazing that at this late day, and after the STEADY DECLINE OF OUR RIGHTS UNDER MAR. WASHINGTON'S POLICY of "quiet, unpretentious service," that Dr. Frissell should be attempting to revive that pernicious, un-American, unmanly, heresy of quiet submission to wrong. What God directed his prophet to do? Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice, take a trumpet, and declare unto my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins." And that is what he being done, and will continue to do, will White America heeds the message, turns from its evil ways and accords to the colored man the rights which justly belongs to him as much as to any other American citizen. Let Frissell Understand Once and for All Time. Dr. Frissell had just as well understand now, once for all, that the policy for which he stands, as regards our rights, will never be accepted by the colored man. And the inculcation of such a policy comes with very little white men who never think of following it when their own rights are involved. Think Colored Unlike Whites. It is because, after all, they think that the Negro is made of a little different foray, and therefore that it is alright for them to QUIBLY SUBMIT TO WHAT MEN WOULD NOT BE EXPECTED TO SUBMIT TO, AND, WOULD NOT SUBMIT TO WITHOUT THE MOST VIGOROUS PROTEST? Put Themselves In Our Place If some of our white friends would put themselves in the place of the colored man, and realize that there is no essential difference between the colored man and themselves they would be saved from some of the foolish things which they recommend at times. Let the Agitation Go On Let the Planet, let the Guardian, let all the colored newspapers, continue to speak out, and, in every other legitimate way, LET THE AGITATION GO ON. It is in vain for Dr. Frissell, or any one else to try to stop it. ours for equality of rights for all citizens, regardless of race or condition FRANCIS J. GRIMKE Hates the Term "Negro." "I hate the term Negro because it is being used in terms of hatred. It is the cause of the segregation of the Negro; it is being used in contempt in public places; it is an excuse for disfranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. Only one person one per cent of the colored people in America can trace their descent to the Negro, and there is no more right to call a colored people Negroes than to call all white people Turks or Armenians."—Ex-Assistant United States Attorney Wm. H. Lewis, Boston, Mass Mad Savagery (Springfield Republican) While we are so critical of the nations known as our enemies it is morally disconcerting to have staged in America such mad savagery as the latest burning to death of a colored man by a mob in Tennessee. The man was clearly guilty, it seems, of the fondation murder of a white girl, but retaliation forness gets us nowhere in correcting or even punishing a criminal class. When race feeling is involved it is impossible to conceive of anything so disastrous in its ultimate effects as the treatment which mobs occasionally give to these black men. At a time when Americans need to show real capacity for discipline and respect for authority, we are forced to contemplate these hidden spectacles of mass brutishness and social anarchy. "Negroes and Dogs Not Allowed" (From the Nashville Clarion) Down in Houston, Texas are some elevators in public buildings labeled "NEGROES AND DOGS NOT ALLOWED." Generous Classification! Such signs as these account in such measure, for the exceedingly rapid manner in which the Colored men are depopulating the South. They can be neither blamed nor censured for leaving a town like this. They have hearts and souls and human pride, just like the people of other races. Must Have a Place in School (From the Chicago Defender) Our naval training camp has every nationality under the sun. As a red flag to flout into the face of the bull, we have Chinamen out there, the Filipino out there, the Greek out there, the Hebrew out there, the Italian out there, and God himself only knows what else out there, but we do know that if we are anywhere near there we are near the bathroom with a mop and broom. Space must be made for the boy of the Colored race in the school for which we are paying taxes. The Eternal Gospel (From the Martinsville Pioneer-Press) We have no respect for a servile, cringing colored man. He is of more service to his people under the sod than on top of it—Richmond (Va) Planet. That is our eternal gospel, preach it in the valleys and on the mountain tops. Not Consistent (Baltimore (Md.) Commonwealth) President Wilson cannot consistently content for liberty, equality and justice for Belgians, Russians, Poles, French, English and Teutons without breeding justice, liberty and equality to ALL citizens of his own country. 1 DR.

The Color Line in the Catholic Church. (From the Southwestern Christian Advocate, New Orleans, La.) There are two hundred thousand colored Catholics in the United States according to Walter F. McEntire, a prominent Catholic, who in telling of the orders and societies of men and women working among color people in the United States, among other things said, "The Church knows no color-line, in the House of God, and any man who tries to lay one down is not a true Catholic." This is good reading but it is not true to fact. There are only two colored priests in the entire Catholic constituency of America, and the Catholic body in America that forges its constituency a white ministry. Moreover, the color issue is drawn as completely in the Catholic Church as elsewhere. There was a time when the Catholic churches welcomed colored people to the altars but not now. Joseph Church, New Orleans, a few miles to the rear are marked reserved for colored. The American prejudice has at last a full grip on the Catholic Church. A Chinese Puzzle. (From the Cleveland Gazette.) The governor of Massachusetts and mayor of Boston are trying to find out why Jews are refused enlistment in that state's field artillery and in the first coast artillery. Also, why Afro-Americans from that state (and others) are refused at the Plattsburg, N. Y., officers' military training camp where Dr. J. E. Spingarn is a major-in-training. The Cause of Migration When meat was 15c a pound and flour $4.00 a bale the colored laborer received from $4.00 a peek. Now meat is 30c a pound and $16.00 a barrel, he is receiving the same wages. He cannot live at this and the white man cannot expect him to remain in the South and live on the starvation wages he is paying him when the fields and the factories in the North and West are offering him living wages. If the white man will suppress lynching and lawlessness in the districts, pay the colored man living wages him a square deal on the farms, better work, the doors of the shops and factories to his prowess, and let him in the labor unions, municipal ordinances (to keep colored men from leaving the South) will be unnecessary. Worse to Ask for Jim Crow. We agree with the editor of the N. Y. News: It is bad enough to have segregated (or "jim coven") military training camps FORCED on us by the government, but infinitely worse to ASK for them.

McCracken, who is always doing something for our body else; Dr. John R. French, one of our dentists made an application for appointment in the dental corps of the Medical Department of the United States Army, but no attention was paid to it. Mr. McCracken then took the matter up with our congressman from this district. Hon. Carl C. Van Dyke, and he at once got busy with the HON. CARL C. VAN DYKE. authorities in Washington and after considerable correspondence he succeeded by his personal efforts in having proper blanks sent to Dr. French, which he filled out and forwarded to Washington and he has been certified and invited to report to the examining board of the U. S. Medical Department of this district located at the University of Minnesota. Heretofore all applications of colored men have been turned down on account of color, and to Congressman Van Dyke the credit must be given for breaking down the color line in this direction. Dr. French has the destination of being the first colored dentist to be certified and ordered to report for examination. LAWYER W. T. FRANCIS. Succeeds in Securing a Pardon for Brody Campbell. On July 5, 1910, after a steamboat excursion, Ella Robinson shot and killed Emma Branch out of jealousy arising from the fact that Emma Branch was dancing and too familiar with Brody Campbell. The Robinson woman and Campbell were both arrested and at the trial of the case PETER H. HARRIS claim was made that Campbell furnished the revolver with which the shooting was done. Lawyer Mchee made an excellent defense but the defendants were found guilty by the jury and sentenced to life imprisonment. The Robinson woman died about a year after the trial. Lawyer W. T. Francis appeared before the Pardon Board on Thursday and was successful in securing a pardon for Campbell. THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN Who, though not now in Washington, is still rendering valuable service to his race in governmental affairs. MURPHY-JOHNSON WEDDING. It seems to be utterly impossible to get up an account of a large and fashionable wedding without some errors of some kind, or, some omissions occurring. Though the utmost care was taken with the write-up of the Murphy-Johnson wedding which was published last week the following errors crept in: First, in some unaccountable way the superb hat worn by the matron of honor was described at a "cap"; next the very large and handsome shower bouquet of white roses and the way carried by the bride was unfortunately omitted; then in the list of the ladies who assisted Mrs. Johnson, the names of Mesdames D. E. Beasley, Milton Peck S. S. Williams and T. R. Hickman were inadvertently omitted. The place to have your shoe repairing done in the best possible way and at the lowest price, is at JARVIS, 104-106 East Fifth street.

MINNESOTA STATE FAIR To Be a Food Training Camp as Well as the "Greatest Show on Earth." The Minnesota State Fair, which is to be held Sept. 3 to 8, has tendered its services as a "food training camp" to President Wilson, to assist the government in its efforts to increase crop production and reduce the waste of food in this country, which is known to be enormous. It is believed that the government will co-operate to the fullest extent in furnishing lecturers, demonstrations and exhibits to assist the fair in its work. The women's department is to hold a series of demonstrations and lectures by specialists of reputation to instruct housekeepers how to furnish the table at the lowest cost. Much attention is to be paid to children's work, to enlist the children in the work of food production and food conservation. Tel. N. W. Dale 605 H.

EVERY PERSON who receives THE APPEAL knows whether he or she has paid for it or not. EVERY PERSON who receives THE APPEAL is expected to pay for it; and, it is a violation of honesty, honor and law not to do so. THIS APPLIES TO EVERY ONE, WITHOUT EXCEPTION. Are you, reader, honest, honorable and law-abiding? Think about it. There is no law to compel any one to receive a newspaper who does not wish to do it, but there is a law that compels one to pay for a newspaper if it is received. There are many persons who receive THE APPEAL as regularly as it is issued, but who have failed to pay for it. Think about it. Don't stop at thinking about it either, but kindly come or send to the office and pay what you honestly, honorably pay. There is not one single subscriber on our list who is ACTUALLY UNABLE to pay for the paper if the desire to do so is strong enough. There is no desire or intention to offend any one, but if this article is marked with a blue pencil it is to remind you that YOU owe for THE APEP. Please come or send to the office, Court Block, 24 E. 4th street, suite 301-302, third floor, and pay what you owe. Take elevator. Law of Subscription. Few readers of newspapers fully and clearly understand the law governing subscriptions. Below are the decisions of the United States Supreme Court upon the subject: Notice to the contrary when subscription expires, are considered as wishing to renew their subscription. If subscribers order a discontinuance of their periodicals the publisher may continue to send them until all dues are paid. The subscriber continues to take the periodicals from the poffice to which it is directed, he receives it from the carrier, he is responsible until he has settled his bill and ordered the paper discontinued. If subscribers move to other places without informing the publisher and the papers are sent to the former address the subscriber is held responsible. If subscribers pay in advance they are bound to give notice at the end of the month. If a subscriber will continue taking it, otherwise the subscriber is authorized to send it, and the subscriber will be responsible until express notice with payment of all arrearages is made. THE EPISCOPALIAN PICNIC Will Be Held at Parker's Lake Thursday, July 19. Owing to the destruction by fire last winter of the dancing pavilion at Spring Park the great picnic of the Episcopal Club was called off. But the big demand for this popular outing caused the club to get busy, and with the Men's Club of St. Thomas church, Minneapolis, they have succeeded in arranging for a picnic at PARKER'S LAKE on Thursday, July 10. The great improvements at Parker's Lake it欠通知ably prove a greater drawing card than Spring Park. You will find there good fishing, boating, bathing, refreshments and a fine DANCING PAVILION. The McCullough orchestra, as usual, will furnish the music. Tickets will be on sale Tuesday, July 10. good on all trains, at 40 cents for round trip. Buy tickets early from the committee, J. M.

Keep Water Away From the Telephone Keep Water Away From the Telephone A wet umbrella, left where it will come in contact with the telephone cords, may put your service out of order. It might also surprise you to know how many cases of telephone "trouble" occur be- cause of water from the scrub-brush or mop dampen- ing the telephone wiring near the floor. Babies playing about the floor sometimes put the tele- phone cords in their mouths. This may interrupt the tele- phone service over that line. The telephone and the telephone cords must be kept dry or a "short circuit" is likely to occur. This will put the equipment wholly or partially out of order.
