In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised. INCOME TAX RETURNS DUE Business Men, Farmers and Wage Workers Must File Schedules of Income for 1919. MARCH 15 LAST FILING DATE. Net Incomes of $1,000 or Over, if Single; or $2,000 or Over if Married, Must Be Reported. The Income Tax imposed by Act of Congress on earnings of the year 1919 is now being collected. Returns under oath must be made on or before March 15 by every citizen and resident who had a net income for 1919 amounting to: $1,000 or over, if single; or if married and living apart from wife (or husband); or if widowed or divorced. $2,000 or over, if married and living with wife (or husband). The status of the person on the last day of the year fixes the status for the year with respect to the above requirements. Under any of these circumstances a return must be made, even though no tax is due. Husband and wife must consider the income of both, plus that of dependent minor children, in meeting this requirement; and, if sufficient to require a return, all items must be shown in a joint return or in separate returns of husband and wife. A single person with minor dependents must include the income of such dependents. A minor who has a net income of $1,000 or more is not considered a dependent, and must file a separate return. Personal returns should be made on Form 1040A, unless the net income exceeded $5,000, in which case Form 1040 should be used. Residents of Minnesota should file their returns with, and make payments of Income Tax to, Edward J. Lynch, Collector of Internal Revenue, St. Paul, Minn. How to Figure Income. The best way to find out whether one must file a return is to get a Form 1040A and follow the instructions printed on it. That form will serve as a reminder of every item of income, and if a return is due it tells how to prepare and file it. If in doubt on any point as to income or deductions, a person may secure free advice and aid from the nearest Internal Revenue office. Guesswork, estimates and other hitor-miss methods are barred when a person is making out his Income Tax return. Accuracy and completeness must be insisted upon. The return is a sworn statement. As such it must be thorough and accurate. Salaried persons and wage earners must ascertain the actual compensation received. Overtime, bonuses, shares in the profits of a business, value of quarters and board furnished by the employer and other items which are compensations for services must be included. It must be borne in mind that compensation may be paid in other forms than in cash. A bonus paid in Liberty Bonds is taxable at the market value of the bonds. A note received in payment for services is taxable income at its face value, and the interest upon it is also taxable. Other Returns Due Every partnership doing business in the United States must file a return on Form 1065; and every personal service corporation must file a similar return. Corporations must file annual returns on Form 1120. Trustees, executives, administrators and others acting in a fiduciary capacity are required to file returns. In some cases, Form 1041 is used; in others, Form 1040; and still others, returns on both forms are required. Information returns, on Forms 1090 and 1096, must be filed by every organization, firm or person who paid, during 1919, an amount of $1,000 in salary, wages, interest, rent, or other fixed or determinable income to another person, partnership, personal service corporation or fiduciary. These information returns should be forwarded directly to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue (sorting division), Washington, D.C. INCOME TAX IN NUTSHELL WHO—Single persons who had net income of $1,000 or more for the year 1919. Married couples who had net income of $2,000 or more. WHEN—March 15, 1920, is final date for filing returns and making first payments. WHERE—Collector of Internal Revenue for District in which the person resides. HOW—Full directions on Form 1040A and Form 1040; also the law and regulations. WHAT—Four per cent normal tax on taxable income up to $4,000 in excess of exemption. Eight per cent normal tax on balance of taxable income. Sur-tax, from one per cent to sixty-five per cent on net incomes over $5,000. TRIBE IS HIT HARD Almost Wiped Out by Dance and Feast. Famine Follows Fete Among Alaskan Indians—Forty-Two Are Dead. Cordova, Alaska—A play, a dance and a feast, winding up a season of plenty was responsible for the near-extinction of the Quigillingok tribe of natives last winter and spring, according to John H. Kilbuck, superintendent of schools for the Kuskokwim river district. The famine following the feast, Mr. Kilbuck said in his annual report to the bureau of education, caused the deaths of at least 42 of the natives, and would have wiped out the entire clan had not missionaries come to the rescue with a supply of food. The tribe, Mr. Kilbuck said, stored up great quantities of fish during the summer and fall seasons. In celebration of their good fortune they invited other tribes to attend a "kuvgagagagag" featured by a play, a "white man's dance" and the giving away of food. When it was all over the guests were millionaires in the currency of the section, while the hosts were paupers. It will be years, Mr. Kilbuck declared, before the Quigillingsok recover from the effects of their generosity. SHOWS "PROFS" UNDERPAID Wives of Instructors at Northwestern University Are Forced to Do Their Own Work. Chicago.—A questionnaire among the faculty members of the college of liberal arts at Northwestern university was responded to by fifty-two and showed, among many interesting things, that among professors and instructors whose salaries are less than $1,500 the modern "hired girl" is unknown. "If the instructor marries, his wife must do all the housework for some time," the faculty report, recently submitted to the trustees of the university, says. But worst of all, even when the instructor has worked his way up the ladder to the position of associate or assistant professor "we find him," the report continues, "still unable to spend much of anything for domestic service. Not even in the group of men receiving the salaries of full professors do we find an average expenditure sufficient to pay a maid's wages for one year." At Northwestern the full professor, so called, receives from $3,000 to $4,000 yearly. The questionnaire also elicited other information which the Northwestern "U" teacher claims entitles him to something more than the 25 per cent increase of salary recently announced by Campaign Chairman Dyche. ARCH FOR 100-YEAR PEACE Memorial Urged for Friendly Relations Between Canada and United States. Blaine, Wash.—Erection of a huge memorial arch on the international boundary here to commemorate the century of peace between Canada and the United States is being urged by good roads men of Washington and British Columbia. Tentative plans call for the erection of the arch in a big park to be established on the Pacific highway on both sides of the boundary. The city of Blaine is willing to purchase the American share of the park if the British Columbia parliament will buy the Canadian side. Samuel Hill of Seattle, president of the Pacific Highway association, is leading the movement. Premier John Oliver of British Columbia has promised to consider the matter. Lumber Jacks to Tramp Over John Brown's Grave. Troy, N. Y. — The grave of John Brown, the abolitionist, at North Elba, in the Adirondacks, is included in the sale of 1,200 acres of timber land in Essex county near Lake Placid, which has just been bought by James Hurley, Lake Placid, for $60.000. Lumbering operations will be carried on. When Brown was executed in 1859 his body was taken to North Elba, where he had founded a refuge for fugitive slaves. Several years ago a monument was placed over the grave. COAL MINED BEYOND NORMAL Bituminous Pits in Pennsylvania Reach High Mark in Month of January. Philadelphia, Pa.—Production of anthracite coal in Pennsylvania in 1919 was the lowest in seven years. There were mined 86,200,00 tons, compared with 98,820,000 tons in 1918. Bituminous coal production reached the lowest level since 1915, with 458,003,000 tons, nearly 21,000,000 tons less than last year. The soft coal mines in the first week of January reached normal for the first time since the miners returned to work after the strike agreement. Production was 107 per cent of normal. Minnesota Historical Society THE A ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS THE APPEAL. TELLS ITALIANS: 'TIGHTEN BELTS' No Hope of Better Food Situation Seen by Food Controller at Rome. STILL EATING WAR BREAD Strikes and Riots Are Bred by Steadily Increasing Cost of Everything —Causing Deep Anxiety to Government. Rome.—Italy's food situation is worse now than it has been since the armistice and almost as bad as it was during the dark days of the war. The feeling that all is not well has weighed upon housekeepers for weeks, when life's prime necessities grew rarer and dearer. But now the country has been told the bitter truth by Food Controller Murialdi in a speech before the chamber of deputies. This year's harvest of grain has yielded 200,000,000 hundredweight less than last year; the government must import 250,000,000 hundredweight for bread, which is sold at 20 cents for a two-pound loaf, and means $400,000,000 on hard grain alone; on soft grain the loss equals another $400,000,000; on olive oil the state loses several hundred million dollars. Italy is the only allied country whose inhabitants must still eat war bread. Its price, the government says, must shortly be raised 5 or 10 cents for a two-pound loaf, because the budget cannot stand the loss of $800,000,000 a year on grain alone. The public must bear part of the burden in dearer bread. Rice is scarce, too; this year's harvest shows a shortage of half a million hundredweight; the oil harvest is so poor the public has less than one-third the quantity doled out last year. There is less than half the quantity of cheese, lard, butter and milk of last year; there is a serious sugar shortage too. No Prospect of Relief. And the food controller has no remedy to suggest. The public blames him and his food ministry. He blames the food ministry too, saying that such chaos reigned when he took it over last summer that he has been unable to straighten things out and will resign as soon as possible. He told an astonished chamber that he found his ministry buying cheese at 50 cents a pound, to resell to wholesale dealers, who doled it out to the public at $1.50 a pound. He added that one great trouble is the lack of food experts to advise the government in buying foods, especially perishable kinds. And he said he saw no hope for a better food situation in the near future unless people eat less and pull their belts tighter over empty stomachs. The perpetual upward flight of food prices in Italy causes deep anxiety to those responsible for the country's good order. Recent strikes and civil strife were almost wholly due to discontent caused by the still increasing cost of life's prime necessities and more trouble is yet to come unless the upward trend is curbed. Sample Increases. Cotton goods cost 300 per cent more than they did in 1916, woolen goods 250 per cent, hats and shoes 200 per cent, shoddy clothes 250 per cent, glass goods 360 per cent. Homegrown produce has increased more than foods imported from America. For instance, eggs are now 55 per cent dearer than three years ago, potatoes 450 per cent dearer, beans 425 per cent, fresh pork 370 per cent, Italian lard 286 per cent, beef 311 per cent, butter 279 per cent, cheese 250 per cent, milk 300 per cent, wine 525 per cent. The food control office reports that wine growers made such big profits this last year that they paid for the land their wines are grown on from the one year's gain alone. The ever-growing cost of living in Italy, once the cheapest country in Europe, the paradise of the poor man, seems to be in a vicious circle. Dear food and discontent go hand-in-hand, breeding strikes, riots, blood-shed. They again react on local production and cause prices to rise higher than before. Then follow fresh strikes and disorders; the screw is turned yet again and the vicious circle must be rounded once more. FOR A TINY BOOK, $75,000 New York Dealer Bought Shakespeare Volume in Europe for a Client. New York—A copy of Shakespeare's "Venus and Adonis," printed in 1590 and classed as one of the most valuable books in the world, arrived here in the possession of George D. Smith, a dealer in rare books, a passenger on the Cunard liner Carmania from Liverpool. Mr. Smith said he paid $75,000 for the tiny volume, two by three inches in size and weighing only two ounces. The volume was purchased for Henry E. Huntington of New York. Spain to Have Skyscrapers: Bilboa, Spain.—At a conference of property owners and architects it was decided that owing to the great increase in land values here twenty and thirty stories buildings will be built thereafter. BINDER TWINE NEEDS Uncertainty of Supply Causes Anxiety in Washington. Diligent Efforts Being Made to Find New Sources for the Material Washington.—The United States has long depended for much of its supply of binder twine on henequen from Yucatan. The uncertainty of the supply during the past several years has caused serious anxiety lest there should not be enough binder twine to harvest the increasing crops of grain in this country, and the United States department of agriculture has been making diligent efforts to find new sources of supply or new regions where binder twine fibers may be produced. The chief of the bureau of plant industry reports encouraging results. The conditions in limited areas, extreme southern Florida and on the larger keys, are regarded as suitable for the production of sisal and henequen fibers, provided the cost of land and labor is not too high to permit successful competition. Henequen has been cultivated successfully for several years in Cuba and the plantations are being increased, but thus far they produce scarcely enough fiber to supply the cordage mills on the island. Conditions are regarded as favorable for the production of binder twine fibers in limited areas in Haiti and over a much larger area in southern Santo Domingo. Experimental plantings in Porto Rico have resulted in the establishment of a commercial plantation near Yauco and trial plantings near Quebrandallas and on Mona island have given promise of growth. In the Virgin islands excellent conditions for the cultivation of sisal have been found on St. Croix. In the Philippines the introduction of modern fiber-cleaning machines has resulted in increased plantings of sisal and private capital has bought and installed machines to develop the industry on a larger scale. SWISS SMUGGLE, GET RICH One Family Is Asked by the Austrian Government to Explain Affluence. Berne.—Smuggling across the frontier between Switzerland and Vorarlberg has been a highly remunerative vocation recently and many persons are alleged to have amassed considerable fortunes in contraband trade. One family engaged in working a small farm near Lustenau, Vorarlberg, has been asked by the Austrian government to explain its present apparent affluent circumstances. One son is living at Bregenz and reputed to be worth 170,000 crowns, another recently lost 125,000 crowns at roulette in Vienna, while another lost still more heavily at Monte Carlo. A fourth is said to be living at an expensive hotel in Berlin. It is charged the whole family was engaged in smuggling operations. IRON OUTPUT DROPS IN 1919 Total Production of 60,466,000 Tons Is a Decrease of 13 Per Cent From 1918. Washington.—Iron ore production was reduced by the shutting down of blast furnaces last year during the steel and coal strikes and the total output was only 60,466,000 gross tons, a decrease of 13 per cent compared with 1918, according to preliminary estimates announced by the geological survey. Shipments were valued at $203,274,000, the 'average selling price at thmines being $3.60 a ton, compared with $3.39 in 1918. Stocks of ore at mines at the beginning of 1920, mainly in Michigan and Minnesota, were 12,989,000, an apparent increase of about 53 per cent. The Lake Superior district mines shipped about 86 per cent of the country's total. Company Takes Back Man Who Stole $235,000 C. R. Woodward of St. Louis, is again a citizen of the United States after release from a two-year term in the penitentiary. Citizenship was restored by the governor. In addition, the Federal Lead company, for the embezzlement of about $235,000 of whose funds he went to prison, has agreed to put him on its pay roll again and give him a fresh start in 'South America as its agent. Family Imprisoned in Chasm City of Mexico.—Unique in the annals of the earthquake is the experience of the family of Prof. Francisco Riveros of Barranca Nueva, Mex. The quake opened a great chasm in the earth in which their home was ingulfed. For more than a week members of the family have been living in the bottom of this abyss at least 140 feet below the surface of the earth. Surviving neighbors have been lowering them food and water at the imminent risk of dislodging rocks, which might fall and crush those beneath. Rain or new shocks may mean the death of those imprisoned in the abyss. ENEMY RATTLED BY FIVE TANKS Ruse That Kept Germans Guessing on Eve of Argonne Disclosed. STAGE ONE-NIGHT STANDS Their Bluff Attacks Divert Two German Divisions-U. S. Army Geta First Two of Improved Type of Battle Tank. Washington.-The story of five little American tanks and the part they played in the great Argonne offensive is told as follows in a statement issued by the war department: "Gen. Pershing with the first American army had just finished awakening the German high command to a healthy fear of the American soldier by reducing the St. Mihiel salient, and the plans for the Meuse-Argonne offensive were about to be carried into execution. In these days of the airplane and wireless telegraphy, it seems impossible to deliver a surprise assault. Nevertheless no pains are spared to deceive the enemy as to the exact point of attack. As a means of covering the true point of attack, the chief of tank corps presented a scheme which received the approval of the high command. Cut Up Like an Army of Tanks. "Accordingly, after the withdrawal of the tanks from the St. Mihiel sector, Lieut. Higgins with his platoon of the Three Hundred and Thirty-fourth battalion tank corps, was directed to proceed from this point in a north-westernly direction along the lines via narrow gauge railway. He was to stop each night and make a reconnaissance in front of our positions with his tanks and immediately load up and repeat the operation the following night further down the line. "On Sept. 19, the five tanks and their crews were loaded and the expedition started. That evening they stopped in the rear of a little wood, many kilometers west of St. Mihiel. Off the little narrow gauge flat cars tumbled the the tanks and nosed into the woods for concealment. About 11 o'clock all was ready and the miniature army started forward on its mission. Everything went off as scheduled. The tanks rolled through our positions and into No Man's Land. "They were operated back and forth for half an hour. After this they were quietly withdrawn, crawled back on their little narrow gauges and started merrily on their way. They timed their work perfectly, and as they pulled out a terrific barrage hit the wood they had left. "The following evening the procedure was repeated. Again the barrage descended too late to hurt the jaunty band. For six successive nights the troupe staged their one night stands, and the reports all along the sector showed that the Hun was up in the air. All day long the sky was full of planes searching for the army of tanks which the enemy was sure was concentrating on this front. All suspicious looking places were bombarded with the usual Hun thoroughness and intensity. All night long the darkness was dispelled by hundreds of flares and rockets, and all indications showed that Heinle was not going to be caught napping. Diverted Two Divisions. "Best of all, just as the little band was preparing to entrain to get into the big show in the Argonne there came a message from the intelligence section stating two German divisions withdrawn from Argonne front. Entraining for your sector." The tank corps has just received at Camp Meade, Md., from the Rock Island arsenal two Mark VIII, tanks. This type, the largest yet placed in quantity production, was especially designed for use against the Hindenburg line and similar defenses. Not so fast nor so easily handled as the lighter types, it possesses the ability to cross much larger ditches, crush more formidable obstacles, and carries a much heavier armament. The great difficulty with the large British tanks was that they were underpowered and, on account of the arrangement of the machinery within, did not afford the proper room for the crews. A commission of British and American experts has corrected faults largely through the adoption of the American Liberty motor. BRITAIN HAS BIG NEW SHELL Projectile Is Said to Pierce the Heaviest Armor Without Shattering. London.—The British navy may soon be given a new and "unsurpassed" weapon in a large caliber shell which will pierce the heaviest armor without shattering, said Sir Robert Hadfield, chairman and managing director of Hadfields, Ltd., steel manufacturers, recently. He indicated that possession of such a shell during the great war would have been of inestimable value to the British fleet. Washington's Birthplace Sold. Fredericksburg, Va.—William G. Latane of Butte, Mont., who married Miss Mary Lindsay of Fredericksburg, has purchased Wakefield farm, in Westmoreland county, where they will make their home. The farm is the birthplace of George Washington. If you have ought that's fit to sell, Use printer's ink, and use it well. MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY If you Use 1920 KILLS OLIVE POISON Experts Find Serum to Combat Botulinus Bacillus. Experiments in Laboratories of University of Illinois Meet With Success. Champaign, Ill.-The bacillus botulinus in the olives which caused the death of five persons in Detroit several months ago has been isolated by Dr. Robert Graham of the department of animal pathology at the University of Illinois. "A different type of bacillus botulinus was associated with the olives in Detroit which caused the food poisoning there. Similar experience has been reported by bacteriologists at Stanford university in California, as well as by Belgian scientists," said Dr. Graham. "It constitutes, however, the first time this particular variety of bacillus botulinus has been announced in the Mississippi valley. "A serum protective against the type of poisoning in the olives as well as other types is being prepared at the university of animal pathology. The university's interest is primarily from an animal standpoint, yet the fact that in recent years the disease has been more common in man incidentally associates the experiments conducted with the disease in humans." This one type of bacillus has been found particularly fatal to chickens, the department of animal pathology has found in conducting experiments with poultry. TROUSERS FOR PARIS WOMEN Modistes Show Daring Oriental Suits of Lustrous Gold and Silver Tissues. Parts, France.—Daring oriental suits of lustrous gold and silver tissues ending in trouser legs, which are held close to the shootsby straps, sometimes embroidered in precious stones, passing under the wearer's instep, are featured in displays of summer models in Parisian modistes' parlors. Some models coyly veil the trousers with filmy materials. Recent rumors that tight lacing was to be restored to favor have proved to be erroneous. In fact, little if any corseting will be needed next summer except by stout women. The length of street dresses being shown is about the same as that in vogue last fall, but the hem is narrower. Bright textures will appear in many of the most popular creations and patterned materials will be featured by some of the more famous houses. One of the most popular models will show a flounce effect and a tight underskirt of jade green. A smart little jacket with gorgeously embroidered lining has been given the stamp of approval in some of the more exclusive shops. HER RUSE SAVES FATHER Italian Girl Takes Blame for Murder in Pennsylvania as Parent Flees. Bradford, Pa.—Margaret Dicello, 17, can marry any one of a score or more of men. She has turned down proposals galore. The little Italian girl won the hearts of the youths of her own people by the cute way in which she protected her father from the clutches of the law. Margaret's father was accused of killing a man, but was at once freed when his daughter confessed that she fired the bullet. When her dad was safe in Italy Margaret admitted that her confession was a lie and was given only to allow her father time to get away. There was nothing for the authorities to do but free the girl and forget the father. "I'm too young to marry," she tells all bidders for her hand. Russian Soviets Order 12-Hour Day, 7-Day Week. A dispatch from Finland says the bolshevkii are trying to force the population of Russia to work every day in the week and have introduced a compulsory working day of 12 hours. All working classes are affected. It is said the new rule is being enforced with the utmost severity. MEXICO TO MAKE OWN GUNS Will Turn Out Cannon on Formula Perfected by Two Native Army Engineers. Mexico City—Mexico, which has found it necessary to import its artillery for years, expects soon to manufacture its own field pieces. Two Mexican army engineers have perfected a formula for tempering steel for cannon, and when the installation of three electric furnaces in the national arsenal is completed the first guns will be turned out. Austrian Children to Italy Austrian Children to Italy. Vienna—Ten thousand Austrian children are now going to Italy as guests of various municipalities. They will remain for the winter. Many thousands more are in Switzerland, Germany, Holland and the Scandinavian countries. $2.00 PER YEAR MAKING TRAVEL BY AIR SAFE Wireless Telephone Will Do Much to Insure Speedy Mail Deliveries. BRITISH EXPERTS AT WORK When New System Is Working Properly Pilots Will Be in Constant Touch With Ground by Means of Wireless. London.—Will the aerial mail service, when its organization has been improved, still continue to be interrupted by such adverse weather as during the past week prevented on several days the flying of the mail machines between London and Paris? Asked this question the other day by a representative of the London Times, Holt Thomas, whose high speed biplanes carry the London-Paris mail, replied with an emphatic "no." At present, he explained, we are flying daily over what is, to a large extent, still an unorganized route; and it is no exaggeration at all to say that when all the organization which we are busily preparing is brought actually into play, as it will be before we have to encounter another winter, such conditions as prevented Lieutenant McMullin from getting through to Paris on the first day of the air mail last Monday will have no adverse effect at all on the flying of a machine, either from the point of view of safety or of adhering to scheduled time. Wireless telegraphy will help us enormously and we have now the services of one of the most practical experts in this country, who is concentrating his attention exclusively on the question as to how directional wireless and the wireless telephone may be made to help us in regular daily flying and to overcome such difficulties as at present cause delay. Information for Plane Pilot. When we have this system working properly it will mean that during our hours of flying, say from 12 o'clock to 4 p. m., every hand operator will be listening for messages from the air and a pilot having set out say from Hounslow, and wishing to know exactly what the weather is like in the channel, will simply take up his receiver and call "Hello, Lympne." All the other stations on the airway will hear, but only Lympne will reply, and in a moment the pilot will be given the information he requires. It will also be quite easy for one pilot to speak to another while two machines are in flight. In each machine, also, we shall place a light telescopic mast. This will be jointed and will lie in the fuselage without taking up any room. But should a pilot have to make a compulsory descent he will on alighting take out his mast. Joint it together and place the "aerial" of his wireless telephone on the top of it. Then, when he has raised this mast and stuck the end of it in the ground—it will be about 30 feet high when fully extended—he will be able to call up the nearest aerodrome on his wireless telephone and tell them just what field he is down in and what his trouble is. In such a case, if a man cannot ascend again quickly, we shall send another machine to him from the nearest relief point, which will take on his mails. We shall soon have a system, both on the English and French sections of the route, whereby a pilot who has a forced landing can get into touch immediately with the nearest land agent of the service, who will take over his mails at once and send them on their way in a fast motorcycle. The point is now demonstrated very clearly that with a skillful pilot and a fast machine the only sort of atmospheric conditions which seriously interrupts flying is such as we encounter sometimes on a bad November day, when an opaque mist, beginning almost at ground level, may extend upward, in an unbroken mass, to an altitude of something like 10,000 feet Hurtling Through the Fog. A pilot in an airplane, flying on through a thick mist, is as unhappy as a pedestrian in a dense fog—only more so. Not only is there the question of finding his way, but he is faced also by the embarrassing fact that, through not being able to turn his eye upon any horizon line, he cannot judge the altitude or inclination of his machine in relation to the ground below, with the result that he may get into a side slip or spin and find suddenly that his machine has passed out of his control—a condition of affairs which may spell extreme peril. Then we expect very soon to have improved considerably the instruments in a machine which tells its pilot its altitude and inclination when he is deprived by fog or cloud of a horizon line. Then, as yet another point, we are working on the question of lighting aerodomes and landing grounds so that a pilot can make a safe contact with the ground even when the air is heavily obscured. This is, of course, a point of capital importance. It is not enough to guide a man accurately while he is flying in misty weather. You must be able to insure him also a safe alighting.

"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. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1920 ANOTHER CANDIDATE FOR WEST POINT. It has been so long since a congressman of any of the states has been fair enough, man enough and unafraid to appoint a colored boy as a candidate for West Point, that it is quite refreshing and gratifying to find an exception in Congressman L. C. Dyer of Missouri, who appointed Richard W. Jackson, aged 19, a graduate of Summer High School, St. Louis, as principal candidate for the Nation's Military Academy. There have been several colored boys appointed to West Point in former years, but only two were able to withstand the strenuous, outrageous treatment accorded them and to be ALLOWED to graduate. The new candidate appears properly equipped to undergo the ordeal if he succeeds in passing the required examination in March, which we sincerely hope he will. We also hope if he passes he will be fortunate enough to over-ride all obstacles that may be put in his path at West Point and that he will be permitted to graduate. THREE MEN AT CHICAGO According to press reports, three men, two avowed candidates and one a possibility addressed a colored organization, in session at Chicago on Lincoln's birthday. Governor Lowden, of Illinois, the first speaker handed out a few glittering generalities, for which he received a reward of scant applause. Then came William Hale. Thompson, Mayor of Chicago, who said: "If there is one great duty before the people of America today it is to uphold the Constitution," the Mayor said. "We see the sorry spectacle of violation of the constitution every day and the colored people and William Hale Thompson are going to stand by the constitution and fight for it to the last ditch. Wild cheering broke forth and hats were tossed in the air. Then came Major General Leonard Wood who ended an excellent address with these clear cut words: "Today the important thing is law and order. There is no group that stands for law and order more than THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cow The human race has test.

There should be no class legislation. We should have a free and untrammeled United States." He was vociferously applauded. THE "NIGGER" IN THE SEGREGATION WOODPILE. "Prof. Neval H. Thomas, a school teacher in Washington and an active member of its N. A. A. C. P., concludes a vigorous news article published in the Cleveland Gazette with words which answer the boasts of those who get money for institutions and houses for Colored people that keep the races apart. Says Prof. Thomas: "I have heard many silly Negro advocates of segregation boast of how much money they can raise for a Negro enterprise, too blind to see that most any white man will contribute liberally to any movement that will keep Colored people away from him and make them acknowledge their inferiority. In fact, the most dangerous enemy of democracy with which we have to contend, and the most serviceable capitalistic tool, is organized charity. The large donors to these Negro "charities" are making profitable investments when, through some well-paid Negro, they can establish a separate Y. M. C. A. Y. W. C. A. social settlement, or school. These institutions aid in keeping the toiling masses apart, so that, on the principle of "divide and conquer," these wealthy "donors" can exploit. So, the collection of large "contributions" by these Negro segregationists is no achievement, but another barrier to the progress of the race. I will remember how one of these international "secretaries" boasted of getting the money to build a Negro Y. M. C. A. in the great city of Chicago. If that institution remains there long the great civil rights law of Illinois will be null and void. Already its presence there has popularized a movement for separate schools and segregation as to homes for our people. "No, our solution is not surrender, but FIGHT! Let the churches and welfare clubs of Cleveland exert extra activity for the moral betterment of Cleveland's youth, and your press, pulpit, your ballot, and every other power within you. Agitate for admission into the associations which bear the name of Jesus who was "no respector of persons," until they acquire a sense of shame." THE APPEAL agrees with every word that Mr. Thomas has written. The Y. M. C. A., social settlements, "Community service," and all similar schemes are efforts at segregation, pure and simple. Their purpose is to bar the colored people from quasi-public institutions, to which all other people are admitted without question. When the "colored" Y. M. C. A. was opened in Chicago, THE APPEAL predicted editorially that it would prove a curse, by reason of creating greater prejudice and the prediction has been more than verified. It will take a thousand years to undo the wrong it has done. Possibly ten thousand years may not right the wrongs done by the establishment of jimcrow Christian(?) associations in the United States. The man who has given so much money to divide American Christians along the color line is a Jew. How could it be possible for a Jew to be interested in the spread of Christianity? The idea is ridiculous. The shrewd Jew knew that by catering to the blind prejudice of the so-called white Christians would bring in dollars. He also knew that jimcrow "negroes" would land him for his "philanthropy" and "HUMAN NATURE My ear is My soul is sick with ev Of wrong and outrage.

Ever since General Leonard Wood declared before the Lincoln League, assembled in Chicago, that he stood for equal rights, equal justice and equal protection to all citizens, in words, that he stood for the Roosevelt State Jurisdiction stated that America must be made for Americans, hundreds have sent their names to be enrolled as charter members of the National Colored People's Wood-for-President-Club, located in this city. Everyone feels that Leonard Wood will be the next great republican leader because he is a real American like the Theodore Roosevelt. Mr. F. B. Ransom, recently appointed on the Indiana state platform committee to represent about half of people this state, leans toward the Wood because he thinks Leonard Wood understands the needs of all the people of the United States and like Theo- IDATES J.F.

General Wood is the only candidate up to date to publicly state his position in regard to the colored people. A very pleasant afternoon meeting of the Adelphia Club was held at the home of Mrs. J. A. Lee on Tuesday afternoon. The state of Ohio was the topic under discussion. Facts brought out by the principal speaker, Mrs. Gladys James, disclosed Ohio as the home state of the hostess, Paul Lawrence Dunbar and of five presidents of the United States.

Duncan of the Eighth Illinois Regiment at Union Hall Tuesday evening. The hall was very appropriately and beautifully decorated with combinations of "Old Glory" and red, white and blue. Arranged around the hall were small tables covered with snowy linen at which guests—as many as possible—sat and partook of the toothsome vies of Coleman & Thomas of the Royal Cafe, while listening to the entertainers, "Mile.

Otis B. Duncan, of the 8th Illinois, was the prime factor in the people of the Twin Cities having three very delightful affairs this week. Monday night under the auspices of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. he lectured at Pilgrim Baptist church the largest audience that ever attended in a church here, and this fact was all the more remarkable because tickets were sold for $2.50, $1.00 and 50 cents each. The church was very appropriately and beautifully decorated with flags; bunting and palms. Dr. Valdo Turner, chairman of the Board of Directors, presided. Community singing was conducted by Mr. Chas. H. Miller with Mr. Robert Sterling Strong at the organ. Rev. A. H. Lealtad of St. Phillips Episcopal Church rendered the invocation. Atty W. T. Francis gave a lucid history of the N. A. A. C. P., its work and prospects. a tenor solo was sung by Mr. Claude D. Jackson with Mrs. Hattie Oliver at the piano, and responded to an encore. Mrs. Eleanor Barksdale Smith sang a soprano solo with Mrs. Hattie Hall at the piano. She also responded to an encore. Lieutenant Samuel L. Ransom introduced the speaker of the evening with much eclat. Col. Duncan paid a glowing tribute to the N. A. A. C. P. and its activities and urged everyone to join the association; and, for more than an hour held his audience while he told many things they never heard before and nailed some of the false statements that have been made about the colored soldiers in the late world war. His address was listened to with great pleasure and present and was frequently punctured by warm applause. Rev. K. C. Anderson of St. James Methodist Church pronounced the benediction. At the conclusion an informal reception was held and every one was given an opportunity to meet the gallant Colonel. The occasion was very delightful and successful in every way.

SPERRY However, desirable may be the possession and stewardship of wealth; with whatever resignation we acclaim knowledge to be power, and sit in submissive amazement at the feet of those possessed of high intellectual attainment; with whatever proclaiming manner we almost proclaim in ideals and worship the posterity of individuals permitted by the creator to be the principal actor in some scene of life's great historic drama, the real measure of manhood is not in any or all of these possessions, but may be noted by the depth of character that descent from high station touches the man farther down, in a sympathy that reaches out like a pair of long loving arms encircling the unfortunate and a heart that echoes "Brother." It is quite fortunate that we have political campaigns at stated intervals if only for the purpose of learning who our neighbors are. James F. Sperry meets the requirements of high-class manhood according to the rule laid down. He does not need to promise what he will do. He has lived the life. His attitude toward colored people is sufficient to convince stubborn-minded men of his depth and breadth of character. Mr. Sperry is in the real estate business, and no one ever knew him to be in absolute control of a piece of property which he would not willingly sell or rent to a reliable colored client. Some years ago St. James Church thought they wished to remodel the present structure. Mr. Sperry was willing to loan that institution $10,000 for 20 years on payments of $500 per year. When Mars Lodge secured the lots that are now the site of Union Hall, Mr. Sperry secured the lots against a deal of local opposition. When Union Hall was about to be constructed, when architects bickered, when contractors almost failed and there was some question as to whether the specifications could be lived up to when money lenders made excuses as to why they could not place the loan, the Board of Directors was stabilized by the firm knowledge that Mr. Sperry would see them through. Colored people are not asked to vote for Mr. Sperry for Councilman as pay for his many kindnesses, such a thought is beneath the ideals of the man, but when colored men do vote, it be a vote for the protection of their mothers, sisters, wives and children and the on-coming members of a prescribed race, for that reason we wish them to be advised as their friends.
