BELL RULER IN REAL GRAUSTARK
American General Is Only Constituted Authority in Luxemburg.
Yankee Division Living Amid Kaleidoscope of International Spies, Revolutionists, Conspirators and Beautiful Princesses.
By CAPT.-ROBERT J. CASEY,
In the Chicago Journal.
Gosselandge, Luxemburg.—General Bell is president of Graustark now.
His division—to which we have finally become attached—is living amid a kaleidoscope of international spies, mysterious men with black beards, revolutionists, conspirators, counterconspirators and beautiful princesses.
All day long the white highways are filled with dashing courtiers. All night long vigil committees lie awake trying to figure out what new plan of government to start off the next day with. It is certainly a strange situation for a poor, guillele lot of infantry and artillery.
It isn't officially set down in the records that the general is the last word hereabouts, but no one—even the most ardent revolutionary leader—fails to admit that his is the only constituted authority. So long as he continues to sit in state at die kirche the plotters don't get much of a chance to raise a disturbance.
The Storm Breaks.
The storm broke in the teapot the day Battery F, 124th field artillery, arrived here after the long march from the Meuse. We were just turning across the River Alzette when a purple limousine all trimmed with gold and displaying a brace of silver braided admirals in the front seat came down the Luxembourg City highway and frightened the guildon's mule into hysteresis. The battery was called to attention and salutes were exchanged before it was realized that the beautiful Marie Adelade, grand duchsee of Luxemburg and royal princess by her own right, had just passed. Not knowing anything politics are could guess that something had gone wrong. That night, however, a bulletin was tacked to the door of the schoolhouse annex—now doing service as a battery kitchen—stating in French and German that Marie Adelade had abdicated in favor of her sister, Charlotte, and that if the populace would try to keep calm, the government would try to continue doing business at the old stand. The story of the revolt, when translated out of two or three mixed languages, is a Grimm's Fairy Tale sort of thing. The beautiful Adelade, it seems, had been something of a popular idle in Luxemburg prior to the war. There is a legend connected with her attitude toward the advancing Prussians that once was current and credited in all parts of the duchy of Luxembourg. The duchess was shocked when the Germans refused to respect the neutrality of her country, Luxemburg's army on paper consisted of 250 men and actually mustered some 70 sturdy troopers.
The minister of war naturally figured that he didn't have much of a chance in opposing Germany, so the princess undertook moral saslon. She drove out to the border and lay down across the road and uttered the sentence famous for a time throughout the duchy: "You dare not pass." Duchess Was Mishformed. But, alas for the proper climax of the story, the beautiful Adelade had been misinformed. They did dare to pass.
A couple of brawny hussars picked the princess up, deposited her alongside the road and executed a neat forward march. That night the invading generals dined at the princess' palace in Colmar-Verg.
There is no way of determining what was the political persuasion of the populace during the four years that followed. Luxemburg seems to have been favored at the hands of the Hun—that is, so far as Hun hands ever favored anybody but the Hun. There was little of the conscription of foodstuffs and farming materials as practiced in Belgium and France. Luxemburg was present in the poles of the kaiser's empire might purchase the delicacies that war regulation had deprived them of at home.
However gently the wily Hun may have treated Luxemburg on his first trip into France, pro-Germanism is an unpopular vice in this county just now. Nobody loves a loser. Hence the grand duchess, who had become engaged to a German noble during the war, suddenly found herself an object of suspicion. After a parley with some committees another throne was vacant. We don't know how long the Princess Charlotte remained in possession, but she stepped down, too, and the affairs of state passed into the hands of the revolutionists. What is a piece of a fair tale. It is called, truthfully enough, "Little Switzerland." and is peaceful, well kept, clean and simple. Fat fowl and fat bables play about the cobbled door yards. It's almost impossible to imagine such a country after having been condemned to the battered villages of the front for six months as we were.
Famous English Specialist Expounds New Theory.
Claims Color Schemes In Decorating Will Make People Healthier and Happier.
London—Kemp Prosser, the famous English color specialist, has been conducting some interesting experiments which he hopes the British government will adopt for decorating houses during the reconstruction period. He maintains that the adoption of his color schemes will make the British both healthier and happier.
Interviewed in his two "health rooms," one with walls of sunlight yellow and the ceiling sky blue, with blue net curtains at the windows, Mr. Prosser declared that his purpose is to bring outdoors inside.
"I am doing away with my pictures," he said. "Instead I am installing these bowls of fruit, as you see, on pedestals against the background of the sunlight walls. These embroidered cushions on the chairs aid in carrying out my purpose with their flower designs."
Then the color specialist led the way to the other room, in which the dominating color was apple-blossom pink. "This is the normal color," said Mr. Prosser, "because I have found that ninety-nine people out of a hundred are happiest in rooms of this shade."
CAT JUMPS ON KING'S BACK
Editors Told of Incident by Captain Merriam, Who Dined With Royalty.
Chicago—A cat may not only look at a king but may even jump on his back and sink its claws into his shoulders—if he be the king of Italy. In proof Capt. Charles E. Merriam, formerly in charge of American propaganda in Italy, told Italian editors who tendered him a dinner recently the story of the cat that jumped on King Victor Emmuelel.
The king was gracious enough to invite me to dine with him and his suite at his backroom near Paduac, Captain Merriam said, "I had a long conversation with him before concerning my work in Italy. He speaks excellent English and asked many questions.
"Later, while we were dining, I was sitting at his right, a large Mattee cat—the royal cat—with a beautiful coat of fur, suddenly leaped up on my lap. I quietly nudged him off my knee. To my surprise he leaped up on the king's back.
"The king uttered an exclamation, I seized the cat and pulled him off, although he nudged on for dear life. The king leaped heartily, I said:
"Your modesty, this means either very good or very bad luck for our common cause."
"It is very good luck for me," replied the king."
"DIP" GETS $7,000 IN TUBE
Morris Bleacher Lease Savings of
Seven Years on Busway in
New York
New York.-While riding in the Fourth avenue subway on his way uptown in Manhattan or in an interborough train of the Seventh avenue line, to which he changed at Canal street, the pocket of Morris Bleender was picked of $7,000.
Bleender came on a Sea Beach train from Brooklyn. He had in his trousers pocket four $1,000 bills and thirty $100 with which he intended to buy two motor trucks with which to start a business. He had saved the money for seven years.
When he left the train he felt his pocket and discovered the money was gone.
London—Rats can't live in high altitudes.
Interesting as indicating a difficulty if not a danger in long distance flying which will have to be guarded against, is the story of an adventurous rat, told on their arrival at Karachi by Maj. G. Salmond and his party, who are flying from Carro to Australia by way of Persia and India.
The rat, attracted by the food supplies, is believed to have boarded an airplane at Chabar, a previous stopping place, or earlier. At all events, it was heard gnawing after leaving Chabar, and at Karchchi the guard which protected the machine during the night heard the rat continuing its nibbling. The rat, however, could not be located or caught. After leaving Karachi its activities went on, and as it was thought it might be gnawing some important part of the machine, it was decided to see if cold would have any effect on its activities. The machine was accordingly taken to over 10,000 feet, and this was too much for a rat nurtured in the balmy warmth of the Persian gulf, and frozen or numbed with cold, it could apparently hold on no longer, and dropped off into space.
THE APPEAL.
ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY: 11:48 19
THIS TELLS HOW TO FIGURE INCOME TAX
Squarely Up to Every Individual to Get Busy by March 15 or Suffer Penalty.
"Don't wait until the final due date, March 15th, for paying your Income Tax and making your return. Avoid the last minute rush. Any person can figure out his liability today as well as he can next week, and if there is any point on which he needs advice he can mention it. This word of advice is from Edward J. Lynch, Collector of Internal Revenue, St. Paul, who is collecting the Income Tax in Minnesota. Collector Lynch is giving without charge every aid of his office and his enlarged field force to help the people get their payments and their returns in by March 15th.
The Income Tax men will not pull your door-bell or your coat-tails, according to the Collector's announcement, is squirrely up to every individual to figure out his own case and to get busy if he comes within the scope of the new Revenue law.
Did You Earn This Much?
Every unmarried person who received income averaging $19.25 a week during 1918 and every married couple who jointly received income averaging $38.50 a week should secure at once from the nearest Deputy Collector or the nearest bank a blank Form 1040 A. That form contains the information he will need to enable him to figure his correct net income and any tax that he owes the Government.
The law requires that every unmarried person who had a net income of $1,000 or over and every married person whose net income was $2,000 or over (including the income of husband or wife) the earnings of minor children, if any) makes a return on or before March 15th. And this requirement does not hinge on whether the person owes a tax.
Taxable Income.
Figuring the Tax.
Before figuring the normal tax the dividends are deducted as credits from net income, together with the personal exemption. As in previous years, dividends of domestic corporations are exempt from normal tax when received by the stockholder.
The normal tax rates for citizens and employees are as follows: On the first $4,000 of the income in excess of the credits the rate is 6 per cent; on any further taxable income the rate is 12 per cent.
The surtax rates apply to net income of each individual in excess of $5,000. The personal exemption and the dividends are not deductible before computing surtax. In the case of returns by husband and wife, the net income of each is considered separately in computing any surtax that may be due. Form 1040 should be used for making returns of net income exceeded $5,000, and the instructions on that form will show how to figure the surtax.
Business House Returns
Employers and others who paid wages, salaries, rent, interest or similar determinable gains in an amount of $1,000 or over during 1918 to any person must file an information return with the Government. Blanks may be secured from the Collector.
Every partnership must file a return showing its income and deductions and the name and address of each partner, with his share of the profits or losses during the past year. Personal service corporations will file similar information for 1918.
**INCOME TAX PAYS
FOR PUBLIC BENEFITS.**
"Viewed in its largest and
truest sense, the payment of
taxes is payment for benefits
received or expected. Only from
a narrow and essentially selfish
and shortsighted viewpoint can
the individual propose to him-
self the evasion of tax liability
as a desirable course of action."
—Daniel C. Roper, Commissioner of Internal Revenue.

Pretty Senorita Gets Stories About Chief in American Newspapers.
Juarez, Mexico—Mexico is as modern as she is ancient. Gen. Jesus Augustin Castro, the new commander in chief of the northeastern military zone, not only has a woman press agent but a pretty one, to see that the general's campaign against the Villa forces receives proper attention from the Mexican and American border newspapers.
She is Senorita Teresa Rodriguez, daughter of a prominent Mexican politician of Mexico City, who came north soon after General Castro was relieved of active duties as subsecretary of war to conduct a campaign against the bandits of the north. Senorita Rodriguez does not speak a word of English, but she succeeded in having her photograph and a sketch of General Castro printed in all the American border papers as soon as arrived from Chihuahua City to host her publicity campaign for the Mexican commander.
Yet Senorita Rodriguez said, in her most liquid Spanish, she did not wish to exert what the Americans called "petitcant influence" to get her stories printed.
"Why should not the Mexicans adopt the best the Americans have originated?" she said at military headquarters to the Associated Press correspondent.
"The much-abused press agent has served a very useful purpose in presenting to the public the good features of every worthy movement, every campaign conducted by military or political leaders, and even your President Wilson recognized this when he appointed a director general of publicity.
General Castro does not order me to have his deeds and pictures published, although I have done many brave deeds and is a sterling man. What he instructed me to do, especially on the American side of the border, was to correct many false impressions subsidized Mexican papers have given the American public about Mexico and its internal conditions. In doing this I feel I am serving my country, and besides I enjoy the work."
Largest Whistle.
Pittsburgh—What is said to be the largest whistle in the world has been placed on one of the smokestacks of the Homestead Steel Works. The whistle, 200 feet above the ground, is five feet long and one foot in diameter and is connected with a three-inch steam pipe. It requires 150 pounds of steam to blow the whistle, which can be heard twelve miles.

SMART CAFES ARE CROWDED
People Are Well Dressed, Cheerful,
and Pay Enormous Prices for
Chocolate and Cakes—Future
Left to the Politicians.
Vienna.—Perhaps the most striking
characteristic of Vienna just now is
its citizens' indifference. To enter the
crowded, smart, beautifully decorated
cafes and watch the lively, laughing
public there is to ask: "Do these
people realize that they have lost the war and an empire, and are reduced to being citizens of a poverty-striken state of under 8,000,000, with an enormous war debt, a bankrupt exchequer, and an ever-growing army of unemployed."
If a foreigner visited this city's cafes and restaurants without being told that he was in a country that had been engaged in a disastrous war for over four years he would think its citizens themselves in peaceful prosperity. Laughter, careless talk about the opera, the ballet and a prominent actress' private life greet you from all sides. Not a word about war or politics.
Officers in bright colored uniforms with much gold lace and with rows of decorations glittering on their turtles, are as lively as the civilians, while fashionable furs and lacey, costly, fashionable furs and lacey, nothing to those who enjoyed life here before the war. They are every whit as "chlc," as gray and up-to-date.
The Smartest Cafe.
Strange to relate, Vienna's smartest, dearest and most sought-after cafe was opened during the war. The Cafe Krantz is the last word in luxury and attractiveness. Money has been lavished on its decorations, and its music is supplied by the orchestra of the Volks opera, conducted by the popular violinist and composer, Willy Kleinberg. Here idlers sip chocolate made with water at 60 cents a small cup, eat small cakes of whitest flour at 70 cents each, flick, chat and listen to as good music as you can enjoy anywhere in the world. Each seat at one of the little round tables costs 12 cents on ordinary days, but on holidays, such as New Year's eve, you cannot get inside the place under 60 cents, while the best seats, which are in the gallery upstairs, overlooking the high hall, where the music is, and the main part of the cafe, cost $1. Every seat is taken, every occupant happy, careless and abashed merely in pleasure. You can be seen at Pucher's tea room, opened a year ago, with broccole bung walls and discreet corners. Here, a cracker costs 50 cents and a cupful of chocolate 80 cents, while a portion of imitation tea, without sugar or milk, can be had for 50 cents. The crowd here is as well dressed, as cheerful and as indifferent to the Versalles conference as that in the Cafe Krantz.
The Atlantis, another magnificent cafe built during the war, is on the ground floor of a hotel, unopened only because Vienna cannot find furniture for it. At least it was till a couple of days ago, when the Italian military commission arrived here, General- Segre in command, and opened offices on the first floor. The Italian flag hangs from the balcony, over the heads of the cafe habitues, but nobody mentions it, or the war and its disasters.
"Is This What We Fought For?"
No, there were some battered officer in shubby uniform can be seen scowling on the thoughtless crowd with a look that says: "Is this what we fought for?" But such are few and far between. The majority of the military people take recent events like the civilians. A Viennese explained it to me:
"They are so happy the war is over."
It matters not what comes next: the problems of the future are left to professional politicians. The war is over, the cafes are attractive, the opera is open. These are the things which matter. No wonder you hear people say: "There is no fear of boishevism, for people are too careless to want it."
This attitude is not the boastful one of the Germans, who tell the universe they are not beaten. The Austrian knows he is beaten and so. But so long with his pocketbook is stuffed with paper money he keeps smiling and goes to the restaurant and cafe of his choice to look at the pretty women and talk about the pallet. Nothing else is worth notice.

Crewless Ship Proves to Be a Success.
Army and Navy Experts Report That Wireless Control Is Possible.
Washington.—Army and navy experts have reported the device of John Hays Hammond, Jr., for radio control of surface craft to be sent laden with explosives against enemy ships a success, and predict similar results with submerged craft showing above water only wireless antennae.
Results of tests were made public in connection with the new fortifications appropriation bill, which carries $475,000 for construction of an experimental submerged boat.
Secretary Baker wrote the house appropriations committee, which is considering the bill, that the joint army and navy board was "convinced of the practicability of the control" of the surface craft, and added that there had also been demonstrations of the possibility of the control of a craft completely submerged except for an air bridge.
Before finally deciding on the purchase of the patents for $750,000 the board desires further experiment with the submerged craft.
Construction of the submerged craft, which will be about 80 feet long by 7 feet in diameter, will take two years, according to Mr. Hammond, who told the committee he has spent ten years and $400,000 on his invention.
"There is no question whatever as to the ability to control with great accuracy the torpedo or carrier," said a letter of MaJ. Gen. F. W. Coe, a member of the board, "so long as it is a surface vessel or has any antenna above the water, by direct radio waves, either from shore or from an airplane." With a shore station having a height of 80 feet above sea level radio control of the craft has been demonstrated to the board up to a distance of seven miles, but General Coe said that if controlled from an airplane there was no limit as to distance except the propelling power of the torpedo or the boat carried it or the airplane.
MAJ. GEN. ARTHUR MURRAY
Maj. Gen. Arthur Murray, retired, will be clerk of the military affairs committee of the next house, unless the war department objects. Representative Jullus Kahn, who will be chairman of the committee, has announced that he will have General Murray appointed to the position.
FRENCH NAVY LOST 134 SHIPS

The French loss totaled 110,000 tons, against 550,000 tons for England, 76,000 tons for Italy and 17,500 tons for the United States.
50,000 YANKS GO TO SCHOOL
Hundreds of Former Instructors Are Chosen to Teach Soldiers of the A. E. F. in France.
Paris—Fifty thousand soldiers of the American expeditionary forces have enrolled as students in the army post schools in France, conducted under the direction of the army educational commission. Hundreds of former college and academy professors and instructors drawn from the various branches of the A. E. F. have been sent to teach in these schools. The plan is to make these divisional in operation with the division until it is returned home and demobilized.

HUN NAVY CRAVEN JELLICOE SHOWS
British Officer Surprised by Caution of Foe During First of War.
GRAND FLEET IN DANGER
Short of Cruisers, Destroyers and Had Defenseless Bases in Early Months of Conflict—Describes Big Bat
London.—The dangers to which the British grand fleet, short of cruisers, destroyers and with defenseless bases, was exposed during the first two and one-half years of the war, owing to the German use of submarines, mines and torpedoes, is described in a book written by Admiral Viscount Jellicoe, commander of the fleet, covering the activities of 1914-16.
Admiral Jellicoe points out that the German high seas fleet possessed 88 destroyers, compared with 42 for the grand fleet, that, owing to the submarine menace, the grand fleet, in the fall of 1914, moved from Lough Swilly and only returned to the North sea when the anchorage in Scapa Flow became reasonably safe.
Neither in October, 1914, nor in May, 1916, Admiral Jellicoe says, did the British margin of superiority justify him in disregarding the enemy's torpedo fire. The situation gradually improved after 1916, especially as the light cruiser and destroyer forces with the grand fleet increased steadily after the fall of Fulham, unsuccessfully during the danger of successful torpedo attack, while the inclusion of class K submarines made it probable that the enemy would suffer more severely from submarine attack than the British.
Tables Are Turned.
Regarding 1918, Admiral Jellicoe says:
"The position was assured and we could have afforded to take risks which in 1916 would have been unwise. If the German fleet had come out to battle, a terrible punishment awaited them."
One-third of the admiral's book is devoted to the battle of Jutland. In summing up the lessons of the battle, Admiral Jellicoe dwells upon "the danger involved in leaving too much to chance in fleet action, because our fleet was the one and only factor vital to the existence of the empire, and, indeed, to the allied cause."
"We had no reserve outside the battle fleet which could in any way replace the event of disaster even should the main superiority be eliminated," the admiral continues.
Admiral Jellicoe says he knew that his ships were inadequately protected with armor compared to the German vessels of the battle cruiser type, while the German fleet in the battle of Jutland was far better off in the number of destroyers. In addition, the Germans possessed "a most efficient armor-piercing shell."
Describes Big Battle.
The admiral continues: "When the battle fleets approached there was a difference of reckoning between the British battle fleet and the battle cruiser squadrons, due to the cruisers having been engaged for several hours and having repeatedly altered their course. Hence, instead of the encirclement just ahead the Germans appeared on the starboard bow."
Instant action was necessary, the admiral says, and he decided to deploy on the port wing division, thus compelling the Germans to turn off to starboard to avoid being crossed. This maneuver, which has been described as masterly by reviewers, threw the enemy into complete confusion. The German commander in chief realized that his only hope lay in escape, profiting by his superiority in torpedo craft, low visibility, the approach of darkness and the proximity of his bases and minefields.
The enemy at this period fired hundreds of torpedoes, as German officers have since stated, Admiral Jellicoe have continued, and although the Germans were in the gravest peril, the position of the grand fleet itself was menaced by determined torpedo attacks in thick weather. But the British fleet by turning its battle line four times during the action, the admiral, got clear of the torpedoes, which were racing toward the British ships, and defeated the tactics upon which the Germans base their hopes.
The relative strength of the two fleets early in the war, Admiral Jellicoe expresses surprise that the Germans were so cautious and says:
"If this country in the future decided to rely for safety against raids or invasion on the fleet alone, it is essential that we possess a considerate and well-organized force in a possible enemy in all classes of vessels than we did in August, 1914."
Change Village Name.
San Francisco. — Germantown, a prosperous community in Glenn county, has gone the way of sauerkraut, hamburger and pretzels. Hereafter, the Southern Pacific announced, the name of the station will be Artols, which carries more of an allied flavor. Recently the Southern Pacific rechristened a small station on its lines in southern California. As Berlin was it an anathema. Now, as Pershing, it looks forward to civic greatness.

Zionist Jews from all parts of the
United States have sent with Presi
dent Wilson to the peace conference
their objectfons to the Zionist demand
for a Jewish state in Palestine,
‘The petition was handed to the
President by Congressman Kahn on
February 5. There were 988 names
on the petition representing the rich:
est and most prominent Hebrews in
the country.
_ The objections to the establishment
of a “Jewish Homeland in Palestine”
are set forth under four specific head.
ings, the chief one of which {s that
“the Jews are dedicated heart and
soul to the countries in which they
well under free conditions.”
“AN Jews,” the petition states, “re-
pudiate every suspicion of a double
allegiance, but to our minds it is nee-
essarily implied in and cannot by any
logic be eliminated from the estab-
lishment of a sovereign state for the
Jews.”
‘The petition also statés that “by the
large part taken by them in the great
war, the Jews have once and for all
shattered the base aspersions of the
anti-Semites, who charged them with
being aliens in every land, incapable
of true patriotism, and prompted only
by sinister and self-seeking motives.”
It says that those who would seek
the establishment of a Jewish sover-
eign state and yet “insist on their
patriotic attachment to the countries
of which they are citizens, are selt-
deceived in their professions of Zion-
ism, and under a spell of emotional
romanticism or of a religious senti-
ment fostered through centuries of
gloom.”
It the Jews representing to a great
extent the leadership in commerce
and industry and the money power of
the World are opposed to a “jimcrow”
state, why should not colored men pro-
test against segregation in every
form?

“REBUILDING THE WORLD.”
“Rebuilding the world,” is the in-
scription surrounding the cross on the
shfeld of, the “Missionary Centenary
of the Methodist Episcopal Church,”
which is working up a scheme to get
Southern colored people to plant cot-
ton in “God's Acreage” and contribute
the money to the missionary fund of
$120,000,000 which it is planned to
raise.
THE APPEAL does not believe that
the colored people should give ono
penny to aid the Methodist Episcopal
Church until it reverses its present
jImerow policy.
‘The Methodist Episcopal Church
split into two branches over the ques.
tion of slavery, but now the Northern
and Southern branches are to come
together again at the contenary. The
weak-kneed Northern men have given
in to the aggressive Southerners and
have agreed to sacrifice their colored
members who have been asked to
form a jim crow church. So far the
colored members have refused to get
out, but they may perhaps be kicked
out.
‘The Methodist Episcopal Church has
given up all ideas of the “Fatherhood
of God and the Brotherhood of Man,”
and at the centenary it is very likely
that the brethren will recount the
Wonderful thing the church has done
for “the negro” and all will join in
singing “Onward, Christiai Soldier.”

WISE SPENDING.
Are you # wise spender? Wise
spending is regarded as a highly im
portant preliminary to thrift by the
U.S. Treasury. As part of its cam
paign for promoting popular savings
through Thrift and War Savings
Stamps during 1919, it has iesued
through {ts Savings Division the fol
lowing definition of wise spending,
which merits:the thoughtful attention
of every family and every individual
who would get ahead in life:
‘Wise spending implies the balan
ing of all needs and of all means o!
meeting these needs and, after bal
ancing needs against means, spending
in such away as to meet the mos!
urgent needs, even if lesser ones have
to be left unsatisfied; in essence i
means a sort of budget-making. Wher
a family, city or state makes a budget
what it does essentially is to take
‘comprehensive view of both needs anc
income. It is important that not all
the income be spent on the first need:
that may occur lest other more urgen|
needs appear and no funds be left t
meet them; that is, thought must be
taken so that available income can be
applied intelligently and wisely tc
cover most important needs and -t
satisfy them somewhat in proportior
to their relative importance.
‘Perhaps the most important ané
dificult problem in connection with
wise spending (or saving) is to real
ize the relative importance of future
‘as compared with present needs. "The
temptation gf all of us is to satisty
present needs at the neglect of future
needs. It is very foolish to neglect
the urgent necessities of today for the
petty wants of the morrow, but few
need very much persuasion to induc¢
them to take care of the present
Where most of us are foolish or un.
wise is in satisfying petty wants of
the present rather than saving in or

GEORGE WASHINGTON THRIFTO
GRAMS,
‘The 187th anniversary of George
Washington's birthday was cele-
brated Feb. 22, Washington, the sue
cessful builder of a nation, gave voice
to.rules for personal and national suc
cess which are as applicable in this
1919 year of necessary thrift as in his
@ay. Here are some of his words on
the use of money and resources that
might have been written for the pres:
ent situation in America:
T cannot enjoin too strongly upon
you for a due observance vf economy
and frugality.
There is no proverb in the whole
catalogue of them more true than a
Penny saved is a penny got.
Keep an account book and enter
therein every farthing of your receipts
and expenditures.
Nothing but harmony, honesty, in-
dustry, and frugality are necessary to
make us a great and happy nation.
‘These statements by George Wash-
ington as to wise personal economy
might be paraphrased today in the in-
junction of the National Thrift Cam-

‘The Association entered its protest

sets forth. First, because the one

totally inadequate to serve all of the
colored troops at the camp at this
time, particularly in view of the tact
that the entire 92nd Division is either
in America or on its way here, to-
gether with other colored units.
‘Second, the Association declares
that @ more inopportune time to issue
such an order could hardly have been
chosen, In view of the fact that these
same men who are barred from the
Hostess Houses of the camp are those
who have just returned trom: France
where ‘they fought for democracy,
many of them being wounded and

ing times of peace.
‘The pity of the whdle despicable
business is that our country is not
great enough to live up to its own

ADOPTED BY THE NATIONAL COLORED CONGRESS FOR WORLD DE-
MOCRACY UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE NATIONAL EQUAL
RIGHTS LEAGUE AT WASHINGTON, D, C. DEC. 18, 1918.
Colored America, through delegates assembled from 37 of the United
States of America, sore and bleeding with persecution because of race and
color, hails with Hope peace with victory, for the motto on the banners of
the armies of the victors was “Away with tyranny and its injustice every-
where.” Speaking for 12,000,000 Colored Americans, the National Colored
Representative Assembly for World Democracy under the auspices of the
National Equal Rights League congratulate thelr fellow Countrymen and
their government on being the instrument by which the God of righteousness
turned the tide of battle for the forces of Mberty.
War Put On World Basis As To The Results.
‘Two hemispheres and the islands of two oceans furnished without regard
to race or color the armies of this bloody and terrible war. Shameful it
would be if its close did not mark a new humane era. ‘To the President of
‘our Republic, Commander-in-Chief of our army and navy it was given to name
the principles on which the winners fought this war, and its purpose. By
his declaration, accepted by France, Britain and the rest openly before the
human race, the principles and the aim of this war were put upon a world
basis. Secondly these principles and aims were for the wiping out of autoc-
racy, inhumanity and injustice, and for the establishment of world justice,
world humanity and world democracy,
Wrongs To Individual On World Basis For Redress.
‘With the ushering in of the new year, 1919, the nations of the world are
Assembled to settle the terms of peace for the world, for the establishment
everywhere of the principles for which this world war was waged by the
forces of democracy.
‘Therefore every denial or violation of Justice, humantty and democracy
has bocomo a matter FOR CORRECTION AND ABROGATION ON A WORLD
BASIS BY A WORLD COURT.
Hence Colored America, which furnished 400,000 brave soldiers for this
war backed by over 12,000,000 loyal citizens without a traitor, appeals to the
allied World for justice and Democracy in the peace settlement.
Utterly Undemocratic Treatment Of Colored People of U. 8. A.
Citizens by law of the United States ot America, the famous Republic
of the West, we first appeal to the clvilized world for the discontinuance of
all race or class discrimination in the world peace settlement. At this
supreme moment in the cause of universal humanity, when wrongs to man
should be banished, we must call world attention to the utterly undomo-
eratle conditions under which every person of color ts forced to live in this
country. Because of race autocracy, our color in the Nation's Capital de-
prives us of every civil right except in public carriers and subjects us to
Fejection or to the restriction of the Ghetto aa employees of the federal
Sovernment, Otherwise our color in many parte of the country deprives us
of every civil, political, social and judicial right; subjects us to obloquy,
imposition, deprivations, injustices, cruelties, atrocities, worse in degree than
exist anywhere else in Christendom. Segregation in ‘public carriers, dls-
franchisement, lynching are essentially violations of that world democracy
for which the war was fought.
Self-determination For Darker Nations.
‘That the tremendous material and appalling human losses of this world
Yar may not be without result for good, we appeal to the peace conclave
to grant self-determiation and rights without discrimination to all of the
darker nations,
‘The Appeal Sent By Race Petitioners For Universal Abolition Of Color

On our part we shall send race petitioners to the assembly of the repro-

‘against Colored persons everywhere, and to appeal to this world Court for.

FEACH AGREEMENT, that the world may be remade truly on the basis of
the liberation of the people of the earth, and of the enjoyment by every

Else There Is No “New Day.”
For without this there will not be the dawning of a new day of democ-
racy, nor of 8 new era of permanent peace after the most terrible and
Sigantic war ever known embracing two hemispheres in a death grapple
between the forces of autocracy and of democracy.

The course will cover first aid, bed-making and bathing, improvising comforts for the sick, and the care of the baby.
Any one may register. No examinations or prerequisites are required, and only a nominal registration fee will be demanded.
BOGUS SOLICITOR CAUGHT.
One Lillian Mahan, of Minneapolis, has been "working" St. Paul as so many others have done, but unlike some of the others, was brought to grief. She had been collecting money for Crispus Attacks Home without authority. Among a number of places, one call was on Mrs. M. Love, at her Beauty Parlor, 310 Rondo street, who believing she was doing a charitable act, gave a donation; but her suspicions were aroused by the call of Detective J. C. Black and he at once got busy and caught her just as she was boarding a car for Minneapolis, and took her to Central station, where she was charged with obtaining money under false pretenses, but was released on $15 bail. Her case was called in the municipal court last Tuesday morning. Attorney J. Louis Ervin was employed by the managers of the Home to prosecute the case, but it was postponed to Thursday morning. When the case was tried, a number of witnesses appeared. The Home and victimized. She was adjudged guilty and was fined $15, which she paid. Lawyer Ervin, although he had spent a portion of three days on the case, donated his services.
The Board of Managers of the Home is making special efforts to catch any and everyone falsely representing the Home and intends to prosecute them to the extent of the law. As the Home work institution, these impositions on the public and the Home ought to be stopped.
CITIZENS OF ST. PAUL HONOR
FIRST LIEUTENANT SAMUEL
L RAMSOM.
By Tendering Him a Grand Public Reception at Union Hall Last Tuesday Evening, Such as was Never Surpassed.
The people of the Twin Cities are loyal, filled with race and civic pride, etc. If anyone had any doubts on those points they were dispelled by their actions in regard to First Lieutenant Samuel L. Ransom, our fellow townman, in tendering him the unsurpassed reception at Union Hall last Tuesday night.
When it was learned that Ransom had returned from "over there," a few of the good citizens met and hurriedly formed a committee to take charge of welcoming him home.
The committee was composed as follows: W. T. Francis, chairman; A. V. Hall, secretary; J. Q. Adams, F. B. Simpson, S. E. Hall, O. D. Howard, H. J. Sherwood, J. W. Kelly, R. L. Stokes, D. H. Smith, C. H. Miller, John La Coste, H. G. Johnson, V. D. Turner, M. L. Barksdale, B. C. Archer, S. L. Maxwell, Sid Cuthbert, Hammond Turner, M. Bolling, J. E. Murphy, R. M. Johnson, G. W. Wills, J. W. Walton, C. E. Charleston, C. W. Wingington, R. H. Cotton.
The committee at once went to work and, though its members had but two days, which to work, the result was amazing. The Hall was packed to capacity, and many could not get in. The hall was beautifully decorated with the national colors, palms, etc.
The order of exercises was as follows: Atty. W. T. Francis, chairman of committee presiding. Community singing of "America," "Pack Up Your Troubles," "Smiles," led by Mr. C. H. Miller. Then the chairman intro-
LIEUT. S. L. RANSOM.
duced Lieutenant A. C. Parker, who had been with the guest of honor over seas, who made a few remarks. He was followed by the Address of Welcome by Rev. A. H. Lealtad. The audience sang, "The Long, Long Trail" that may be of Minneapolis read may delightfully the following poem by A. V. Hall.
From the shriek of the shell,
From the turmoil of hell.
Welcome home, friend o'mine, welcome home.
From the sight of dead comrades, dark faces uplured.
From a fair country, ravished and pillowed.
From the Huns' "Kamrad" cry,
From the Huns' treacherous lie,
Welcome home, friend o'mine, welcome home.
From the trench rat and cootie and wildewils.
From the cateau and vineyard whose ruins best tell
Of what that was there,
And the steel in the air.
Welcome home, friend o'mine, welcome home.
To a pal's hearty grips,
To a pal's hearty grips,
Welcome home, friend o'mine,
Welcome home, friend o'mine
Mr. A. V. Hall, the author of the poem, was called to the front and received an ovation.
This was followed by a song, "God Did Take Care of You."
The chairman then introduced "one of the 'Black Devils', that gave the Huns Hell." Lieut. Samuel L. Ransom, who, after the applause had ceased, told the story of his doings from the time he left St. Paul until his return. It was very interesting and inspiring and was loudly applauded.
As a finale the audience sang "The Marselles."
At the close of the exercises some time was spent in shaking hands with, congratulating and welcoming Lieut. Ransom home.
Dancing then began to the charming music of Moore's Jazz Orchestra, Minneapolis. The grand march was led by Lieut. Ransom and Miss Mayme Goins.
During the grand march paper ribbon streamers were liberally thrown and entwined, about the marchers.
When five other numbers had been danced a novel surprise innovation was sprung. A passage way was formed with two long ropes. Lieut. Ransom was invited to the front, but being a little slow in responding, he was grabbed by members of the committee and literally hauled to the platform. He was all flustered, more so than he was when a Hun shell covered him with dirt, all but his head, as he lay in a dug out in "No Man's Land." And when Prof. Stevens Jazz orchestra struck up "Here Comes the Bride," he prepared for the worst. The bridal party was composed of the bride, B. C. Archer, camouflaged into a blushing dam-sel leaned on the arm of her father, J. E. Murphy. The ring bearers M. A. Bolling and Mrs. J. H. Goins, bearing a large decorated hoghead hoop, followed. Then the bridal attendants, H. G. Johnson and Mrs. Ida Murphy, H. G. Johnson and Mrs. Miss Charlotte Gillard, Clarence Thompson and Mrs. Gladys Brown. Arriving at the altar Rev. (?) Chas, H. Miller pronounced his unique and comical ceremony, the "ring" was adjusted around the newly-weds and as the parson said, "you will now salute the bride," all the lights went out, leaving the hall in pitch darkness. What the groom and bride did will
never be known but the people yelled
so that the lights were again turned
on, and the hilarity continued for
quite a while.
Dancing was again resumed and six
numbers were danced and the people
reluctantly repaired to their homes,
thus passed into the history one of the
most enjoyable entertainments ever
witnessed in St. Paul.
The members of the Committee of
Arrangements are requested to meet
at the office of Atty. W. T. Francis,
329 Metropolitan Bank Bldg., Thursday
evening, March 13th, at 7:30
o'clock.
The sub-financial committee of the
general committee of the Ransom Reception
makes the following report:
Total amount received .....$159.00
Total disbursements ..... 110.70

It is the intention of the committee to hold the funds now in its hands to assist in financing some similar event which will doubtless shortly be necessary.
