Home Like This Would End the Worries Over Landlords, Rents and Leases—Plenty of Light and Ventilation. By WILLIAM A. RADFORD. Mr. William A. Radford will answer questions and give advice on COST on all subjects pertaining to the subject of building, for the readers of this paper. On account of his wide experience as Biller, Author and Manufacturer, he is without doubt the author on all these subjects. Address all inquiries to William A. Radford, No. 1257 Prairie Avenue Chicago, Ill., and only inclose two-unit rooms for reply. Uppermost in the thoughts of most families today is the question of home—where they are going to live—how much it will cost—and will they be able to pay. These are practically facing eviction upon the expiration of their present lease in May. Their reuts have been raised to a point where they can no longer pay and live, so they must move. Consequently they are in a nerve-racked dilemma. The possibility of their getting a new flat at a reasonable rate very slim and they are confronted with a situation that demands considerable thought and worry. Many of them are turning to a sure source of relief, buying a home. In a home of their own their worries over rent, landlords, leases, etc. cease. They become independent citizens of a community; not wandering nomads and tent dwellers. And this can be done at less monthly outlay than if they attempted to rent an apartment. Never was there a time when homes were needed as badly as they are at PARK HALL the present. With thousands marrying each year, the number of new homes being erected to house them is sadly inadequate. It is estimated there are a million homes short in the United States. That is why every family should seriously consider the possibility of getting a home of its own. For the family of moderate means the bungalow affords an excellent shelter. It is small, comparatively inexpensive, and delightfully cozy and comfortable. Moreover it is distinctively individual in design. Such a home is the charming bungalow shown here with floor plans. Low rambling design, it forms a very pleasing picture with its immaculate white stucco exterior and exclusive front porch recessed under an extension of the roof. It gives an impression of bigness, but really it is not large as it looks at a glance, as the dimensions show. This bungalow home is 36 feet wide and 39 feet long on the longest side which includes the wing containing the rear bedroom. Hamlet was prince of Jutland; his father, the king of Jutland, had been murdered by his own brother, Fengo who took the throne and queen of the deed man. Hamlet feigned madness to save his own life. He stabbed one of Fengo's courtiers, sent to spy upon him, and for this purpose concealed himself under a truss of straw. He reproached his mother with her shameful second marriage to such effect that she promised to help him in avenging his father by putting Fengo to death—a promise which she kept. These are the very incidents Shakespeare has selected for his play sometimes emphasizing the points of the narrative, sometimes softening them or changing them in harmony with his own wild conception dramatic requirements. Shakespeare's "Hamlet" was first played in 1600 or 1601, and first printed in 1603. President Eliot Was Qarsman.

Two triple windows provide light for the dining room, a large cheerful room on the right front, 16 feet 6 inches by 13 feet. The porch is a few steps above the walk and very attractively surrounded by broad stucco balustrades and protected by an arch of the same material. The front door opens directly into the living room, the largest room in the home, being 17 feet 6 inches by 13 feet. The living and dining rooms are connected by a wide doorway. Leading from the living room to the access to the two bedrooms and equipped with space-saving garment carriers which eliminate much of the waste entailed by old-fashioned clothes closets. Each bedroom has splendid ventilation facilities and window space. The rear bedroom has windows on two sides. Moreover in being separated from the living rooms as they are, the people who wish to Defective Page sleep are not disturbed by the noise from other parts of the house. Directly to the rear of the dining room is the kitchen, modeled along the very latest ideas of home building in that it is small, compact but complete in all details. The large awkward kitchen has no place in the modern home. They only mean extra work for the housewife because of their size. A small pantry is built off one corner of the kitchen. A modern bathroom completes the floor plan arrangement. It is obvious that an attractive home like this will appeal to many families who are planning on building a home of their own, not only because of its picturesque appearance and charming interior arrangement, but because of its reasonableness in cost. It is free from any feeling of crowding, and a wonderful place for children. What most homeseekers need is the stimulus to make their ambitions a reality, and certainly a home like this will do much toward bringing this result about. REAL "PRINCE OF DENMARK" Hamlet Not Altogether a Creation of the Bride, the greatest of English Writers. Hamlet, the hero of Shakespeare's most famous tragedy, is a personage who appears in history, yet is half mythological, but has been transformed by the genius of the English poet into one of the most dominating figures of literature. It is allowed that Shakespeare's Hamlet was suggested by the Hamlet, or Amethle, of Saxo Grammaticus. The latter's "History of Denmark" had been published in Paris in 1514. Francois de Belleforest included the tale of Hamlet in his "Tragic Histories" (1570), and his translation of which appeared in 1605. Shakespeare's drama was written earlier than this last date and must have derived from a plot either from De Belleforest's work or a translation executed before the end of Sixteenth century, unless the poet, who it is known, was a great reader of histories, took the incident direct from Saxo Grammaticus. According to the Danish historian Hamlet was prince of Jutland; his father, the king of Jutland, had been murdered by his own brother, Fengo, who took the throne and queen of the dead man. Hamlet feigned madness to save his own life. He stabbed one of Fengo's courtiers, sent to spy upon him, and for this purpose concealed himself under a truss of straw. He reproached his mother with her shameless second marriage to such effect that she promised to help him in avenging his father by putting kept to death—a promise which she kept. He was very incidents. Shakespeare has selected the points sometimes emphasizing the points of the narrative, sometimes softening them or changing them in harmony with his own vivid conception of dramatic requirements. Shakespeare's "Hamlet" was first played in 1600 or 1601, and first printed in 1603. President Eliot Was Oarsman President Eliot Was Oarsman. The Varsity club at Harvard university is made up of athletes who have won their letter in competition. At a recent luncheon of the club the names of all the graduates present, in the order of their classes, were read, and first upon the list was the name of President Emeritus Charles W. Eliot. President Eliot was a noted Harvard oarsman in his day, and he told the club youngsters present of how the Harvard color was chosen by a six-oxed crew in which he rowed while he was in college. Harvard "crimson" at one time degenerated to magenta, according to color historians at Cambridge, but deep research has developed that the true shade is arterial red. Letters of Recommendation. "Billy" Williams, United States commissioner of internal revenue, says a lawyer told him once that "a letter of recommendation does not evidence a man's ability, but merely signifies the amiability of the writer." That is about sold a truth as one will see in a day. Every ready letter writer will agree to many. Many letters tell the truth about the man for whom they are written, but rarely tell the whole truth. If there are unpleasant facts about the bearer of the letter, the writer has been discreetly and courteously silent in respect to them. It is not his business to argue and analyze. It is his job to give a friend a life—The Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser. Wealthy Indians A great many Indians are very wealthy and own a great deal of both real and personal property. A large number of them are fully enfranchised citizens of the United States. The commission of Indian affairs says that the United States must protect the Indian settlers on the reservations to improve themselves and make use of the opportunity America offers them to become citizens. THE APPEAL. MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY THE ST. PAUL AND MINN CASH AND LOVE GONE Once Wealthy Man Brings Action Against Girl Wife. Aged Husband Demands an Accounting for $50,000 Turned Over to Wife and Relatives. Atlantic City.—Pennilless and sixty-five years old, William P. Riffle, once a wealthy resident of Uniontown, Pa., appeared before vice chancellor Learning here in an action he has brought against his nineteen-year-old wife and her uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mathews, formerly of New York, but for the past year residents of this city. He sues to compel the latter to give an accounting for $50,000 which he turned over to them. Riffle testified that two years ago Mrs. Mathews showed him the picture of her niece, then seventeen, when he went to her hotel on South Illinois avenue, in search of health. He said that he became enamoured of the girl and Mrs. Mathews brought her to the hotel. They became engaged after he had promised to give her $10,000. Shortly afterward they were married. He testified that he gave Mr. and Mrs. Mathews nearly $50,000, with the understanding that the money was to be invested in real estate. After his money was gone, he charged, his wife sold the furniture he had bought for their home despite his protest. She then gave him $16 of the proceeds to go to his home, he added, and even tried, he swore, to take that away, from him before he left. The defense sought to show that the money had paid for $3,600 worth of clothes for the young wife, an automobile, diamonds and jewelry. Riffle admitted the money lasted only six months. Then, he charged, the money came into his home to Uniontown to raise more funds, but he had been unsuccessful. He declared that he was forced to leave his wife in March of this year, COURT O. K.'S HAIR PULLING Wife Justified in "Remonstrating" With Rival, Massachusetts Judge Rules. Lynn, Mass. — A hair-pulling match between a wife and another woman is who is found with the husband is perfectly in order from the spouse's viewpoint, according to the ruling of Associate Justice Edward B. O'Brien of the District court here. He has been charged to render a decision at the trial of Mrs. Lillian Miner, a divorcee, charged with assault with a revolver upon Mrs. Catherine Curtis, the wife of a Boston policeman. Although it was charged that Mrs. Curtis made the first move in the hostilities, the justice said: "I think the wife is justified in remitting the assault, and such a case came before me for trial I should rule in favor of the aggrieved wife." Love of Music Traps Robber of Poor Box Philadelphia.—It was his love for music which led to the arrest of Jacob Katz, twenty-four years old. Katz entered the Emanuel Lutheran church here shortly after midnight and found the poor box which he emptied of its contents. $3. Then he found the new organ. Katz had musical talent and he ran his fingers over the keys. Then he became so absorbed in the instrument that he forgot where he was, pulled out the diaphone and thundered away. The strains awakened the pastor, Rev. Rudolph Nieder, who lives next door, and he called the police. ROBBER OFFERS VICTIM $10 "You Need It Worse Than! I He Says to Holdup (on Finding Man Penniless. Steubenville, O.-D. Daniel Cable, a pottery worker, reported to the police here that a robber, who had held him up while he was on his way home in a suburb, offered to give him $10 after the highwayman discovered that he was penniless. Cable said that the robber leaped up and robbed him, and then went through his pockets. Finding no money, Cable said, the highwayman reached into his own pocket, pulled out a roll of bills and offered to give him $10, saying: "Here, brother, you need it worse than I do." Cable said he was too surprised to accept the money. Laborer Geta $150,000 Anaconda, Mont.—Everly Abrers' task at the Washoe smoker to the possession of $150,000 was the realization here recently of Claude Sheumaker, who received a telegram from an Eastern broker advising him that he had realized this fortune on the sale of oil stock. Sheumaker immediately drew his earnings, purchased a railroad ticket and started East. Sheumaker conceived the idea of buying oil stock while in the army. While service was not complete, his vision he was wounded. His original investment was $300 of back army pay. He intends purchasing a ranch in Oregon, he said. Only United States and Canada Produce This Much-Prized Product on Large Scale. First Runs Are Usually the Sweetest and Therefore the Best Producer—Ten to Fifteen Trees Enough for Family. Washington—Remember the days when you went to the maple sugar parties? Well, maple sugar time is here. The sugar and syrup industry is American and offers good commercial opportunities. One of the United States and Canada produce this much-prized product on a commercial scale, which is at once a delicacy and a highly nutritious article of diet. Warm days and cold nights are essential to a satisfactory down and the sugar content may vary considerably from day to day. Tapping of sugar trees if done properly in no way injures the tree. Trees have been tapped for more than 100 years and are still in good condition. The maple is well up among the leaders in the American Forestry association's vote for a national tree. Early Tapping is Favored. Tap early in the season, says a general bulletin, to obtain the earlier runs, which are generally the sweetest, and therefore the best producers. Makers have lost half and even more of their crops by not being prepared for the first run. In general, the association points out, the season is ready to open during the first or middle of February in the southern section and later in the northern regions when days are becoming warm—when the temperature goes above freezing during the day and at night below freezing. If the days are very bright, warm, and sunny the sap will start with a rush, but soon slacken, or if a high wind starts the flow is checked. A thirteen thirty-seconds of an inch (13-32 inch) bit is often used. Its direction should be slightly upward into the tree, the slant flowing the hole to drain readily. With an ordinary tree the hole should not be over one and a half to two inches deep at the best. Apparatus for sirup and sugar-making does not necessarily repress large outlay. A number of sap spouts, either wooden or metal, are needed, the sirup is usually gathered in buckets. From ten to fifteen trees usually will yield enough sirup for family use to make tapping worth while and in many cases will afford a sum which can be sold at a remunerative price. The flow of sap depends upon the age, condition and habit of growth of the trees, also upon the character of the weather and condition of the soil during the sap-flowing season. Figures as to Yields. In a good season a tree fifteen inches in diameter will yield sufficient sap to make from one to six quarts of sap, which in turn can be concentrated into two to ten pounds of sugar. Larger trees under the same condition will produce correspondingly large yields of sap and sugar. All hard maple trees, eight inches or more in diameter, may be safely and profitably fitted for sap and sugar production. This industry is not confined to circumscribed trees in New England and New York. There are many "sugar bushes" throughout eastern and northeastern United States and south to include North Carolina and Tennessee; west to northern Missouri, Iowa and Minnesota. A considerable number of maple trees of a sugar-yielding species are found in Washington and Oregon. Twin Sisters Become Mothers on Same Day Delmonte, Cal.-Mrs. Mildred Jacques, wife of Claude Jacques of Delmonte, and Mrs. Maud Pierson, wife of a Monterey business man, twin sisters, are proud givers of babies born the same day.

Y. — Pedro Sacherell, a boy in the eighth grade in the Little Falls high school, was sitting at his desk, wriggling, as boys do. Another boy, sitting near him, saw a column of smoke ascending along Pedro's backbone and circling toward the ceiling. A quick look revealed the fact that matches in Pedro's pocket had been rubbed violently enough to set them on fire. Other pupils and the teacher jumped to the door, and Pedro's sweater was jerked off, the fire he saw out and the small boy returned to his saddlebare hole was burned through Pedro's clothes and he was not hurt, though the fire extinguishers shock him considerably. INCREASE OF ALIENS Net Growth in Immigrant Population for Year 193,514. Total of 633,371 Sought Entrance to United States in Last Fiscal Year. Washington.—Establishment of machinery overseas in co-operation with foreign governments through which aliens before breaking up their homes may determine whether they will be admitted to the United States and legislative consideration of the proposals of the second industrial conference are outstanding recommendations in the annual report of Secretary of Labor Wilson. The report shows that 633,371 aliens arrived in this country during the last fiscal year, as compared with 20,921 the year before. Of the total arrivals, 11,795 were excluded at the ports where they sought to enter. Of those arriving 430,001 are classed as immigrant aliens and 195,575 are nonimmigrant aliens. Departures of aliens totaled 428,062, including 288,315 immigrant aliens and 139,747 nonimmigrant aliens making the net increase in the immigrant population for the year 193,514. Japanese admitted number 16,174, as compared with 14,994 the year before. The total number of Japanese departing is placed at 15,633, making the report says, the indicated increase in Japanese population, 521. Of those admitted, 9,193 were males and 6,981 females. Besides the immigrants turned back at the port of arrival, 2,762 were ordered deported during the year on departmental warrants, as compared with 3,068 the year before. Of those deported, 469 were classed as anarchists and criminals. In addition, 591 others are awaiting deportation. During the year 519,003 allens took the final or final steps toward citizenship. Mr. Wilson urges legislative action to carry out the recommendations of the second industrial conference, proposing joint organizations of management and employees for prevention of industrial disputes and a comprehensive plan for adjusting such disputes when they occur. DIGGERS TURN UP TREASURE Sewer Workers Find Collection of Rings and Arms in a Boston Slime Plane. Boston.—A sewer gang quit work at noon the other day with a valuable treasure trove. In the slime of an old pit near the Quincy house they had found three gold rings, coins, watches and other valuables. Hotel employees suggested that the hotel had a claim on the articles, as the property probably of guests of bygone days. The police suspected that they were part of the loot of thieves. But when the men showed coins dating to 1787, stamped with a pine tree on one side and "Massachusetts" the other, they insisted that the statues limitations made the property theirs. With the ancient coins they found beer checks, which the foreman of the gang said he intended to keep with a "pine tree shilling," as a souvenir of the past. The foreman estimated that the deposit of mud in which the valuables were found had not been disturbed in 75 years. It's No Fault of Mint If You're Shy of Coin Washington.—The mints established a record in coinage during the last fiscal year, according to the annual report of Director Ray Baker made public. A total of 809,500,000 coins were executed, which Mr. Baker declared as the largest record. The figures show an increase of 446 per cent over 1915. Public demand for smaller coins, particularly pennies, is reflected in the report, which discloses that more than 512,500,000 coins in the record output were 1-cent pieces. KING SPLITS ROYAL ESTATE Spanish Monarch to Parcel Out 2,500 Acres of Land in Small Farm Plots. Madrid. — Instructions have been given by King Alfonso for the forma- tion of an agricultural syndicate, the object of which will be the parceling out of the king's royal estate at El Pardo, nine miles west of this city, for cultivation under the anguilles of the Catholic Agrarian federation. The property contains nearly 2,500 acres and will be divided into small plots. A plan has been devised which will permit laborers to acquire the land allotted to them. "The Yellow Ostrich Feather." Bonneville, Ky. — Nancy and Cyntha Hale, aged fourteen and fifteen, respectively, who cook and wash and sew for six little motherless brothers and sisters, have made a quilt which they have christened "The Yellow Ostrich Feather." Neighbors thought so much of it that it was sent to Louis- son, France, for the benefit of wom- en of the mountains.

CUTS COST OF CONSTRUCTION Design Shown Here Is Built of Concrete Blocks, but Will Work Out Equality Well in Frame, Brick, Hollow Tile and Stucco. BY WILLIAM A. RADFORD. Mr. William A. Radford will answer questions and give advice FREE OF COST on all subjects pertaining to the subject of building, for the readers of this paper. On account of his wide experience as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, we is without doubt, the highest authority on all these subjects. Address all inquiries to William A. Radford, No. 1827 Prairie Avenue, Chicago, IL, and only inclose two-cent stamp for reply. While many people prefer the one room, so called condensed apartment of the large apartment buildings in the cities, and others like the small, unique and original bungalow brought from the West Coast a few years ago, a great many still hold a profound regard for the familiar and ever-popular square lined, hipped roof home of many rooms, the home that always gives the impression of bigness, comfort, and substantial security. This home is found in the large and small cities, suburbs, small towns, villages and on the farms. It has its supporters everywhere and will continue to be built for many years to come. That is why we are showing a picture of an excellent example of this type. In this case the house is built of concrete blocks, although the same design may be constructed of frame. brick, hollow tile and stucco. There are no freakish corners, expensive innovations that tend to increase costs which are high enough as it is. In fact the contractor can build this kind of home as reasonably as any. Concrete block is growing in favor because of its attractive exterior appearance and insulating features. The hollow air space prevents extreme cold from penetrating the walls in the winter and likewise stops excessive heat from getting in during the warm months. Moreover it is easily laid and quickly. This block is smooth-faced. The foundation is poured concrete. One of the appealing features of this home, one that indicates its comfortable arrangement is the expansive room porch, part of which has been glazed to form a sun parlor. In the summer time this glass can be changed for screens and a very comfortable sun porch built. The front door opens into a small reception hall which contains a clothes closet and which opens on one side into the living room and leads to the stairway going to the second floor. The living room is a large First Floor Plan. spacious and cheerful room, 14 by 16 feet 6 inches, with a great open brick fireplace, easily one of the most attractive comforts that can be installed in the home. On either side of this fireplace are two small windows providing additional light and ventilation. Directly in the rear of the living room and joining it by a large open doorway is the dining room, slightly smaller in size, 13 by 15 feet 6 inches, looking out into the rear through a large triple window. Another large double hung window on the side provides additional light. The dining room is connected with the kitchen by a small door on one side. In the construction of modern homes the kitchen is considered one of the most important spaces of the home, importance to the wife. Unless arranged efficiently it will cause her a whole lot of unnecessary work and make her home life decidedly more difficult and slavish. On the upper floor are the four bedrooms, small cheerful well-lighted rooms of about equal size and each containing exceptionally large clothes closets. These bedrooms are crouched MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY $2.40 PER YEAR about a central hall. The bathroom is also located on this floor. There are many features in this substantial home that will appeal to the man of family who wants plenty of breathing space. Moreover this type of house is very economical in cost. This is due to the absence of frills of any kind which always mean extra expense. In these days of high costs, if people planning on homes would overlook many of the whims which they may want to incorporate in their new home they would find it quite Second Floor Plan. profitable. For every added feature means special labor, millwork, and a whole lot of extra expense. Last year there were 100,000 marriages, and only 40,000 homes were built. It is estimated that today there are 121 families for every 100 homes. If this be true the situation is very acute. There must be home building, and work must be started soon or there will be an actual home famine. TRACES ORIGIN OF HAWAIIANS New Pork Scientist Finds Them Cousins to Asiatics and to United States Indians. Whence came the ancient Hawaiians and others of the Polynesian race is a query which baffled the members of the pan-Pacific scientific congress when, it was in session at Honolulu last August, and which is answered in part by Louis R. Sullivan of the American Museum of Natural His tory, New York, who has been conducting investigations in the islands since the close of the congress. Bodily, facial and cranial characteristics of the Polynesian, according to Mr. Sullivan's tables, show that he is 11 parts Mongolian, five parts European, five parts Mongoloid-European and two parts Mongoloid-Melanesian. The seemingly unavoidable conclusion is that the Hawaiian and his Polynesian brothers originally came from Asia. The ancient Hawaiians were a race of regal proportions, the most commanding physically, Mr. Sullivan believes, the world has ever seen. Polecats Become Food The spirit of economy caused by the high prices in Paris is leading people to eat animals only valued hitherto for their skins, writes the London Daily Telegraph .correspondent. It is now possible to buy at some shops near the central markets joints of foxes and polecats, and by way of variety the flesh of squirrels and badgers is offered. It seems that these novelties are prepared for the table with varied sauces. The prefect of police is disturbed at the idea of people eating the flesh of foxes and polecats, and he has found it necessary to issue a circular, in which he points out that they run a grave danger, since some of the animals may have been destroyed by polson. After this, it is not expected that there will be a big trade in the new game. Natural Inquiry There is a certain congressman who, it appears, is unable to talk for five minutes, even on an ordinary subject, without falling into a funereal tone. Now this grates exceedingly upon the sensibilities of a colleague. One day while the first mentioned statesman was holding forth in his usual mourning cadence the second member's attention was caught by the melancholy tones. Turning to a friend, the second member asked in a drawing but solemn voice: "Judge, were you acquainted with the deceased?"—Philadelphia Public Ledger. Perfect Identification The French have hit on a new idea for the making of finger-prints. Instead of rubbing the finger-ends with ink and making impressions on paper, the X-ray is used. The finger is first dusted with a fine powder of bismuth, and then an X-ray picture is taken of it. The picture shows not only the ridged convolutions of the skin texture, but also the terminal bones of the digit. These bones are not exactly alike in any two human beings and thus identification is made much easier. yp THE APPEAL ‘AN AMERICAN NEWSPAPER ISSUED WEEKLY pitas et era J.

JAZZ. Jazz music is popular with many people, because they have not been trained to appreciate music of the better kind. ‘Those who ought to know say, that jazz music is detri- mental to both morals and health, Shakespeare said that “music hath charms to soothe thé savage breast.” Well, jazz was tried on the animals of the New York zoo the other day and the monkey registered emotion, but of a rather savage kind. ‘Then the latest jazz was banged into the ears of lions and their mates. All hopped to their feet, with fur brist- ling. The hippopotamus ‘wrecked the experiment by diving into her tank and shutting out the racket. The elephants seemed to tremble with rage. Now comes Dr. Robertson,~Health Commissioner of Chicago, who says the pace that kills is the kind set to the jazz band. And the man or woman who is charmed by the indigo toots of the saxophone will fill a @ancer’s grave. “Get back to rhythm,” counsels the doctor. “If you must dance and it is great exercise—waltz. Nothing is more beautiful or bene- ficial.” “There are a few things the human frame is not’ equipped to do; one of them is the shivering, quivering, raz- zle-dazzle, nerve-racking and current form of amusement obtained by keep- ing time to the screams and whistles of modern jazz orchestras. Consider the cat. Tabby has-more endurance than any other animal. Why? Be- cause she is the most rhymthmical animal in the world, Even its purr is rhymthieal. If a cat tried to shimmy every night or to toddle and do the lame giraffe it would die in no time. Music is one of the best preventives of nervous disorders, I know. It’s a home necessity.

The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. E is the ever present danger that jim- crow colored men will get on the board and surrender the rights of the people. ‘The Crisis in the May issue gives this good advice in the matter: “Meantime, may we not advise out inter-racial friends,—do. not fill you committees with ‘pussy-footers’ like Robert Moton or ‘white-folks’ nig. gers’ like Isaac Fisher. Get more real men who dare to look you in the eye and speak the truth and who re- fuse to favor and lie. An ounce of truth outweighs a ton of impudence Do not seek to mislead or lull by ancient platitudes and generalities Let your ‘black mammy’ sleep and show your ‘best friendship’ by deeds not words. Do not dodge or duck Face the fundamental problems: the Vote, the ‘Jim-Crow’ car, Peonage and Mob-law.” “NEGRO” ECONOMICS, ‘The Secretary of Labor is out in a circular which says: “The so-called Division of Negro Economics ‘has been abolished by the Secretary of Labor, largely because there is no such thing as segregation in the economies of colored wage- earners from those of any other raee. It is fundamentally un-American to create classes or to recognize classes. Our laws do not distinguish between white men and colored men and any other class or classes.” While the above is logical and the thetorie fine, it is not absolutely true, because the laws do differentiate be- tween colored men and white men. However, we are pleased that the “Bureau of Negro Economies” is dead. So far as the editor knows, THE APPEAL was the only news- paper to protest the formation of such a segregated bureau. In a long editorial we called attention to the absurdity of such a division and its danger to the colored people in the formation of jimerow bureaus. THE KU KLUX KLAN Atlanta, capital of mob - murder land, is in the throes of a great orgy. Knights of the Ku Klux Klan are gathered from all parts of the state for celebration of the founding of the order on top of Stone mountatin, six years ago. The original klan was formed May 6. Some 5,000 knights are to be present at the observance and more than 10,000 candidates are to be taken into the order, according to announcement of officials, The order claims to be 100 per cent American, and yet its purpose is to injure, in every way possible, Catholies, colored people and Jews, ANTI-LYNCHING BILL. Representative L. C. Dyer, Repub- liean of Missouri, has introduced a Dill in Congress providing’ that per- sons accused of lynching shall be tried in Federal instead of State courts, and that those found guilty of participating in lynchings shal suffer the death penalty. Every onc ought to get behind this bill and push its passage. It is infinitely bet. fer than the MeCormick bill which authorizes a commission to “study” lynching. No study is necessary; the facts are patent. Minnesota has done her part by enacting an anti-lynch- ing law. Now give us a national law. CLASSMATES REPUDIATE DIS- CRIMINATION.

They ‘repudiated the action of Professor Jeremiah Young, who omitted the name of Willard Morrow, a colored student, when he was assigning seats in alphatbetical order, by voting to permit Morrow to take his place in alphabetical sequence with the other students. a= Professor Young told Morrow he could take a seat at either side or ‘in the rear of the room. Morrow protested that he should -be allowed to be seated as the others, threaten- ing to quit the class. He appealed to his fellow students. Professor Young, filled with an unholy preju- dice, at first refused to accede, but the matter was put to a vote and the students decided that Morrow ‘should be seated by alphabetical se- geunce.

MR. HARDING'S CHANCE. For eight years one-twelfth of the citizenry of the United States suffer- ed from the humiliation of segrega- tion in the civil service of the coun- try. It was a condition forced by President Wilson, who while deliver- ing his smooth talks about world democracy, used his great power to humiliate and degrade millions of his fellow countrymen. Wilson considered himself a super- man, and his ambition was to be the president of a super-government and go down in history as the greatest man who ever lived. Repudiated at the ballot box by his countrymen, he is today, according to all accounts a physical’ wreck. And as he sits in his easy chair, his keen intellect is tortured by the spectres of his de- feated ambitions. Mr. Harding, you have the pow- er to wipe out the President Wilson's great wrong to the colored people. You have stated on many occasions that you believe in equality of citi- zenship. You have the power to is- sue an executive order abolishing segregation in the departments at Washington and in the Civil Service of the United States. Will you do it, Mr. Harding? | pues / NEW BANK IN CHICAGO.

For this my son was dead, and is alive again, he was lost and is found —Luke 15:24, It was meet that we should make merry and be glad, for this thy brother was dead and is alive again he was lost and is found—Luke 15:32 Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that-heareth my word, and. believetl on Him that sent me, hath everlast- ing life, and shall not come into con dernnation, but is passed from death unto life—St. John 5:24, And you hath He qiuckened whe Were dead in trespasses and sins— Ephesians 2:1, Even when we were dead in sin: hath ‘quickened us_ together with Christ—Ephesians 2:5.

Gilles Back of the detadence of the home is the decadence of the people who constitute the home. | Marriage is not a failure, but a great many married people ate fail- ures, Partnerships in the home and in business mean the giving up of some of the independence and privileges of all teh partners, ‘The difficulty is often attributed to all sorts of outward things, but the real trouble is inward rather than outward. ‘The tree often decays on the inside ‘before there is any out- ward manifestation of it. Young people should “make haste slowly” in getting married, and mar- ried people should “make haste slow- ly” in getting divorces. Divorce-getting becomes a habit of life if allowed to, and the next com- anion is no better than the first. e divorce habit is also passed down from parents to children, atid to unnumbered generations, ‘The divorce habit indicates the loss of moral heroism, and the rem- edy would be in part the regaining of the same. There is a big hole at the bottom of ‘the divorce evil, and danger of not only the home’ but the nation falling through. Elimination of the discussion of family differences would help a good deal. We don’t have much trouble about what we don’t say. Regular family meals with the blessing asked at each would help a good deal. Regular family worship would help a good deal. Husband and wife either going out together evenings or staying at home together would help a good deal. READ ADVERTISEMENTS You read your newspaper to get the latest news.

Mr. Charles H. Miller, who had been most active in arranging for the meeting, acted as master of ceremonies. After singing by the choir and prayer, Mr. James H. Loomis on behalf of the citizens said in part: The citizens of St. Paul are indeed proud of Mrs. W. W. Francis, and justly so, for ever since girlhood and her graduation she has devoted the principal activities of her life to the uplift of our race. The creation of the Anti-Lynching Bill and the work, time and energy spent by her in order to secure its passage, proves that her ambition is to help her fellowmen. That law will go down in history as the most important piece of M. MRS. W. T. FRANCIS. legislation affecting our race that has ever been passed in our state. It is of untold value to the colored people of Minnesota and will be helpful as a precedent and a step in the right direction for other states, and even in securing a Federal Act, through Congress, to stop the awful American crime of lynching. This public testimonial and this beautiful loving cup is evidence of the fact that we appreciate all that Mrs. Francis has done for the race, not only with regard to the Anti-Lynching Bill but through all of her years of service, and all good citizens of St. Paul stand ready to support her at all times in all her efforts in our behalf. Mr. George C. Shannon, speaking on "Our Women," paid a great tribute to them in general and Mrs. Francis in particular. Dr. L. Raymond Hill was the next speaker, and he made a wonderful plea for "Race Solidarity." He was followed by Mrs. Mae Black-Mason, who rendered a soprano solo: "Oh, Divine Redemer" by Gounod, in her usual artistic style. Mr. Charles H. Miller, presented the handsome silver gold-lined loving cup, standing 17 inches high and bears this inscription engraved upon it: Presented to Mrs. Nellie F. Francis by the colored citizens of St. Paul for her untiring efforts in behalf of the race and in securing the passage of the Anti-Lynching Bill, April 18, 1921. In presenting the cup Mr. Miller said among other good things: This is the era of men and women who dare Long have we plodded in a furrow, not having the courage to come out of the rut, but today the progressive colored American seeks opportunity that does not come of itself. Failure was in your path; but, you met it face to face, you were not afraid, but with clear-minded will, faith, courage, perseverance you grasped the opportunity to protect the race; and with the help of God, you compelled failure to work to your advantage. Plunging into the tide of politics at its flood you were swept to victory. The Anti-Lynching Bill passed, you were its initiative, to you belongs the reward of efficiency. I am reminded of another of your achievement as I listen to the melodious notes pealing from the organ. I become reminiscent. With dynamic power charged with the vibrations of living force you met the financial king of the world, Andrew Carnegie and succeeded in securing a gift of $1,100. You have been charged with self-aggrandizement, but bless your soul every time you have advanced by your own will power and brain power. You will like many others of the race with equal tages who have dodged behind pillar and past to get away from the race, you have brought the race up with you. So mind not what others say or think in these matters concerning you and the race. Live so as to make the most of the life God has given you, and let the tongues wag as they may. It is a sad mistake to say there are only seven deadly sins, there are eight and ingratitude is the first. Mrs. Francis, on behalf of the race, men and women of St. Paul, as a small token of appreciation for your effort in behalf of the race, in conceiving and working for the consummation of the Anti-Lynch Law pass- SYSTEM OF BEAUTY CULTURE?

Its inscription records the fate that out of your unitiring zeal and effort you have emerged with success. A Folk Song was rendered by Pilgrim and St. James choirs. Mrs. W. T. Francis then arose, visibly affected, and responded in part as follows: Your children will reap the harvest of our solidarity—of our determination to stand together, to fight together, and, if needs be, to die together; for they are dying, every day, the men and women of our race, martyrts to lynch-law, the fiery stake and the awful savagery of peonage; that these, your children, may know full liberty and an equal chance in the world, the bitterness of sorrow, the fruits of our passivity and indifference; the frittering of our strength by suffering, petty strife and narrow jealousies to becloud the larger vision of our responsibility to coming generations. And my plea, in response to, and in sincere appreciation of this testimonial and loving cup which you, the citizens of St. Paul, of your own accord and without regard to my preferences in the matter, have summoned me here to receive from you, is that we take up the keynote that has been sounded in these splendid speeches to the first few words of the strength of our minds upon the destructive and selfish agencies and efforts to hinder earnest and altruistic service which imperil our efforts to enlist the co-operation of those who would.sponsor our cause and be of service could we but present a united front. Listen to the plea of the black poet: "O. black people, cease your sleeping, Get you off the road to folly; For your children's sake awaken! shun the snares of petty discord Which dishears and divide you, For dishears and divide you Is the cause of your condition." I have met you today, at your request, not in a spirit of triumph because of the great honor which you have bestowed upon me—for I affirm that I or no one would wish to experience in life any greater honor than that to be selected as the object of the good will and unanimity of purpose—the first upon whom the city of St. Paul has ever conferred such a distinguished honor—but rather in the spirit of sadness that it should be necessary to urge legislators of this or any other state to write statutes declaring for the same rights for which 65 years ago Abraham Lincoln believed he had died, and the soul of old John Brown was sent marching on. And to assure you of my willingness at all times to assist in securing from the white people of Minnesota, and of the United States, if needs be, the civil and political rights as well as the social justice to the race to which we belong and which you, our citizens in this well-filled church edifice today represent with such dignity, culture and fine spirit. Again I thank you. The congregation and choirs sang a song. Revs. H. L. P. Jones and J. A. Foster amde a few remarks. Mr. B. L. White recited the poem entitled Rev. J. A.

MEMORIAL BAPTIST CHURCH. Under the Successful Administration of Rev. T. J. Carr. St. Paul, Minn., May 6, 1921. Memorial Baptist Church was organized in August, 1914, by a number of its present members, who called Rev. E. McDonald to its pastorate. Under his leadership the present property was sold, pews were purchased and $3,000 were paid on the debts of the church, which was a splendid record for his short pastorate. The work began to lag, however, and Rev. McDonald accepted a call to Pittsburgh, Pa. Through his recommendations, a call was tendered to Rev. T. J. Carr, who, at that time, was general missionary for the Iowa Baptist Association. In an effort to retain his services the Association in- REV. T. J. CARR, D. D. creased his salary; but, following the Lord's direction, he accepted the call to Memorial and entered its pastorate, more than four years ago. When he came, the church was struggling under debts amounting to over $6,000. Many of these debts were urgently demanding immediate attention. These debts, with accruing interest, increased to more than $7,000, all of which have been paid and the mortgage on the property has been canceled and burned. The church now has a handsome bank account and no debts whatever. The membership of the church has more than doubled in the last three years; and, for constructive work, Memorial stands in the front rank. Too much cannot be said in praise of the faithful members of this church, or the friends who have worked with them. During this month, the church has surpassed all previous records in Sunday school and prayer meeting attendance, and in the number taking the Holy Communion. Rev. T. J. Carr received his literary and theological training at Roger Williams University, Nashville, Tenn., which he entered at the age of 16 and remained until he was 23. He holds two literary and a theological diploma from this school. He built the best house of worship of the race in the state of Kansas, and at the same time held the chair of mathematics in the Topeka Industrial Institute. In various capacities he has served the race with eminent success. In early life he edited a newspaper at Clarkville, Tenn., and was elected to the legislature of Tennessee, but was counted out by the Democrat machine. He is now vice president of the National Baptist Convention for Minnesota, and president of the Twin City Inter-denominational Ministerial Alliance. He is affable and unassuming, and attributes his success to the guidance and help of Almighty God.
