HOUSEWIVES' HEADQUARTERS THE EMPORIUM QUALITY CANDIES - SAINT PAUL ALL NECESSITIES FOR THE HOME VOL. 38 NO. 8 American Relief Workers Are Finding Constantinople City of Distress. IS DAILY GROWING WORSE City Teens. With Refugees in Such Great Numbers That All Cannot Possibly Be Looked After—Children Cared For. New York.—As warfare and petty tribal conflicts in the Near East continue, American relief workers are finding Constantinople a city of distress, where conditions daily grow worse as new refugees wander hopelessly on the endless and usually vain—quest for food. Returning members of the overseas personnel of the Near East relief all bring back the mercy of injury, and supplements of the letters and periodical reports of relief agents on the field. Situation Is Desperate. When the evacuation of the French from Cilicia and the consequent flight of the Armenians and other portions of the native Christian population, the situation threatens to become one that the imagination recoils at picturing. "Constantinople already teems with refugees in such great numbers that all cannot possibly be looked after," writes Mrs. Jeanne W. Emrich, a member of the relief unit in the Ottoman capital, who previously had wide experience as a missionary. "Now the people of Cilicia are coming to us. We simply will not be able to care for them. /How terrible the need is in spite of all that America has sent us would be hard to make any one understand who has not been here. The weather is bitterly cold and each day brings its fresh stream of misery. "There are also encouraging things—the gratitude of a group of Armenian mothers, last week, when old clothes from America were distributed among them. One mother said, as she held out the few garments given her: I could never have given them as they would have some lilies. Just the same, I want to give something. I can only give a mejdi—or about 10 cents—but all I can give, I want to give." And each woman present did the same. Out of their dire poverty they gave some 12 lilas—about 88—and, since this is a country with free education, we need the money to put additional children into school. Clothes for Children. "At present we are distributing these old American clothes among 5,000 children. They have no fathers, these have been killed in the war or deportations; but they have mothers or grandmothers. The mother scrubs, sews, works in a restaurant—anything to keep a home together, which home consists of one mean room renting for a dollar or so monthly. These wretched families are scattered through 42 sections of this great nation, national armies, Greeks, Syrians, Chaldeans and Turks. The Near East relief cannot support them—it must look after its orphanages—but it does help them with one can of condensed milk and two loaves of bread weekly per child. Also during five winter months we sell them charcoal at half the market price. "The sister of the lad who works in my home was recently put into one of the Neur Eust relief orphanages here. She is thirteen years old, was taken by the Turks when she was only eight, and she is now a student of course can speak only Turkish now. One of her eyes is gone, and she has the oldest, unhappiest face imaginable for a child of that age." HOLDS WALKING POOR SPORT Youth Who Is Famous Pedestrian Has Enrolled at Kansas Colorado College. Emporia, Kas. — Hiking across country for fun is poor sport, according to Milo Gibson, boy hiker, who walked to Washington last summer and was received by President Harding. If you travel and write or do something for the benefit of humanity, these long hikes are all right. Gibson said, "but there's too much danger of becoming a professional hobo." Gibson has enrolled as a freshman in the College of Emporia. He had intended to enroll at the school last fall, but was taken sick with pneumonia at the Grand Canyon of Arizona last August while on a hike from his home in Chanute to the Pacific coast. Gibson traveled 500 miles last summer. On his long tramps he caught many rides, but he did a great deal of leg work, especially in the West. Drove Out Gamblers Quickly. Bloomsburg, Pa.—In 24 hours after he took the oath of office Police Chief Vern Mericle drove the gambling out of Bloomburg. His first elicit was against punchboards and they disappeared quickly. He next visited several establishments where poker was played and notified them to close up and "beat it" or land in jail. The proprietors closed up and hurriedly NEW USE FOR PIGEONS Forest Fire Fighters Find Them Efficient Assistants. As Meana of Quick Communication Between Ranger on Fire Line and Headquarters Carrier Pigeon Has No Equal. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) The carrier pigeon has found a place for itself in the fire-fighting forces of the forest service. It demonstrated its worth the year in the 2021 national forest, and will be installed next year at all protective camps in that district. As a means of quick and certain communication between the ranger out on the fire line and headquarters, the carrier pigeon has no competition, reports from Idaho to the Department of Agriculture state. One bird, after a preliminary course of training, was taken a rough trip by pack horse, kept overnight at its destination, and released the next day. This carrier was back at its coop, at the carriers, 30 minutes after it was released, covering 18 miles, air line, and flowers in high mountain. Its mate called the Another, released at dusk from the bottom of a canyon, rose abruptly, crossed two high ranges and was at its coop before dark. A third, carried in a back pack into high peaks of the Buckhorn country, flew home within an hour, covering in that time a good day's journey for a man on horseback In the face of fire, this performance was equiled. The ranger took two birds to the spot where smoke had been located. The first bird carried instructions to send help. Not long thereafter the fire-fighters at the front had brought the blaze under control. The second bird was released, countering the first order. It reached headquarters just as the summoned assistance was about to start for the fire, and the message it carried not only gave welcome assurance of victory over the red peril, but saved a number of men from making a long and tedious trip through the forest. IS MASTER AT ARMS INTERNATIONAL Mrs. M. E. L. Barron was recently appointed master at arms of the S. S. America. She can probably lay claim to the distinction of being the first woman aboard ship to hold such a position. SIX 'UNKNOWN POILUS' LIVING French Government Seeks Identity of War Heroes Whose Memories Are a Blank. Paris—France has six living "unknown pollus." The men, their memories a complete blank as the reason horrors undergone the war, are being cared for by the government, which is seeking to establish their identities. They have been visited by thousands of persons, but none recognized them, and the minister of pensions has decided to send their photographs and detailed descriptions to the metropolitan and provincial press in hopes that their relatives can be found. Theater Provides Smoking Room. New York—an elaborately-furnished smoking room, exclusively for women, has been opened in a New York theater. The women had formed the habit of smoking in the lobby, so the manager decided to give them a room to enjoy their cigarettes in comfort. AMERICAN FOXES WILL BE RAISED IN GERMANY Berlin—American silver foxes and skunks will be cultivated on a large scale by a German stock company on a farm in the Austrian Tyrol, under the direction of Professor de Mill of the natural history department of the Munich university. In Germany, where the prices of the higher grade of fur have risen enormously in the last few months, a perfect specimen of silver fox costs 100,000 marks. leaving a dows and Where the one known returned In its the deer or plate glass scattering left and right in a warmth When lea toward the THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1922 ACTORS ARE HIT HARD More Are Now Looking for Jobs Than Ever Before. Managers Say 7,500 Are Idle—Complaints Are Heard From Broadway to "Main Street" of Poor Business. New York.—There are today more unemployed actors and other stage people walking along Broadway and a hundred other cities looking for jobs than ever before. Everybody in Times square who knows anything about the theater, from the cut-rate ticket hawker to the producer of a dozen hits, is complaining. The tallers, landladdies and boardinghouse owners seem to feel the hard times as acutely as the actors. They have sought a great many judgments recently against stage folk who overlooked the rather prosocial duty of paying their bills. In larger cities of the country where the lights flicker only a little less brightly than in Broadway, conditions are just as bad, according to the heads of producing concerns and organizations of actors. Chicago, once a lively theatrical center where actors sent forth many road shows, is "dead" now in that activity, local managers report. Very few shows, they say, are trained and distributed from the Illinois metropolis to the Midwest and South, because overhead expenses have grown beyond the capacity of the box offices. Several well-known managers estimated that half of the 15,000 actors in the United States, exclusive of vaudeville performers, were out of work. The Actors' Equity association said the number was not so large as that, but was 20 per cent worse than usual. The bicycle riders and dancing teams which fit from city to city under vaudeville contracts have not suffered greatly. Vaudeville tickets generally are less expensive than those for drama or girl-and-music shows, and the public seems willing to buy them even if money isn't so easy to get as it used to be, the hooking houses report. Nor have any howls of complaint been heard from the many bird dogs and terriers who go about the countryside, and the public asserts they bounds in "Uncle Tom's Cabin". For some reason, the roaming tent shows and boat shows that play the small, smaller and smallest villages are said not to have felt a drop in attendance, and there are now 700 of them scattered over the land. Aside from the general letup in luxury buying, many reasons are given for the extremely hard times in the theater. The managers complain of unearable overhead expenses—increased railroad fare and union regulations, the employment at high wages of a lot of men who only want to sit around and boss somebody else. Union leaders say this isn't so, and explain that the main difficulties are railroad rates and competition by the movies. Both agree that, while a company on tour formerly was a paying employee, it took in $7,000 or $8,000 a week, it ranges almost double that income nowadays to keep the show going. NEW PLANET VISIBLE IN 1923 Astronomer at Buenos Aires Reports Globe Has Diameter of $15\frac{1}{2}$ Miles. Buenos Aires.—Doctor Hartmann, director of the La Plata observatory, says that the orbit of the little planet he discovered on November 4 lies between the orbits of the planets Jupiter and Mars. The orbit is elliptical an is covered in five years, and seven months. As the plane of the orbit is very clined in regard to the earth's equator, the new planet can approach the poles closer than most of the other planets and may be observed late this year until the fall of 1923 in a very northern position. The diameter of the globe is estimated at about $15\frac{1}{2}$ miles, as its brilliancy, taken at the last observation, appeared to be of the fifteenth magnitude. Rabbit Ate Rosary. St. Louis.—A rosary entwined in the stomach of a rabbit was discovered by a butcher here the other day after a small boy had traded the rabbit to the butcher for a supply of apples. The rabbit, the boy's pet, used to train hunting dogs, broke a leg one day in escaping from a dog and had to be killed. DEER SMASHES WINDOWS IN PENNSYLVANIA CITY Scranton, Pa.-A full grown antered deer bolted through some miles of Scranton's streets leaving a trail of shattered windows and scattered provisions. Where the animal came from no one knows, and has apparently returned to the same place. In its flight through the city the deer jumped through a large plate glass window in a grocery, scattering provisions, right and left and making its exit through a door in the rear. When last seen it was heading toward the mountains. Rabbit Ate Rosary LOVE MELLOWS PRIZE FIGHTER Girl Brings Desire for Education to Former Terror of the Boxing Ring. IS SEEKING ANOTHER DEGREE "Kid" Wedge, at 41, Entra Harvard Almost Pennille, to obtain Ph.D. Degree—Left Lumber Camps To Be Pugilist. Boston.—A story of great love, of a career of hard battles in the ring, and of a winning fight against tuberculosis came to light at Harvard university a few days ago when Frederick "Kid" Wedge, forty-one years old, of Arizona registered in the Harvard graduate school of education, where he is to study for his Ph.D. degree. Fifteen years ago the name of "Kid" Wedge was one to be feared in the timber lands of the Middle West. For years he had fought in the rings of that region. At twenty he left the woods, where he worked with lumber crews, and took up the fighting game for his profession. In the next six years he fought 68 battles and won 65 of them. Romance Entered Life. Then, when he was twenty-six, came his romance. He met the daughter of a Wisconsin doctor. She was a graduate of a Nebraska college, and far removed from Wedge's station in life, but they were married. Then he realized the great difference in their intellectual standards, so he gave up the ring to secure an education with the money he lnd earned as a prize-fighter. For six years he attended a preparatory school, where he did 12 years of elementary work to prepare for college. He entered the University of Nebraska, but the war interrupted his work. He went to Camp Grant as a boxing instructor, and there another obstacle appeared. The doctors pronounced him an incurable victim of tuberculosis, with but six months to live. He went to El Paso Tex, to begin a different battle, and in a year he was a well man. Won Degree of A. B. Then he entered the University of Arizona and finished the work he had begun, at the University of Nebraska. He was given his degree of A. B. He was forty years old then, and became principal of the high school at Benson, Ariz. That was the position he held until the end of last year, when he resigned to go East and continue his studies. He made the trip of thousands of miles in freight cars and "on the rods." He started with $10 traveling expenses, and reached Cambridge with 65 cents in his pockets. When the next semester enters at Harvard, after the mid-year examinations, he Wedge the number bobs, number hobo, and former flying consumptive, will open up the books that will make him a doctor of philosophy. WAR PRISONERS SENT HOME Between May 1, 1920, and Dec. 31, 1921, 441,829 Were Repatriated by Joint Commission. Geneva.—Prisoners of war to the number of 441,829 were sent to their homes between May 1, 1920, and December 31, 1921, by the joint commission of the League of Nations and the International Red Cross. The repatriated men were prisoners belonging to various European states interned in Russia and Russians interned in various European countries. A small number of prisoners still remain in Russia, but as far as the joint commission can learn they are men who have preferred, for personal reasons, not to join the convos of repatriated prisoners. The commission considers that its work ended December 31 and all agreements appertaining to it will be renounced on March 15. URGES BRITISH EMPIRE RADIO Wireless Commission Advocates Building of Stations in Colonies and in China. London—The wireless telegraph commission has recommended to the government- the construction of stations in England, Canada, Australia, South Africa, India, Egypt, East Africa, Singapore and Hong Kong. A year later study on the queuing cost of the stations is estimated at not more than $160,000, normal value $800,000, but those in England, Egypt, Singapore and Hong Kong would aggregate about $853,000, or $4,265,000. Recommendation is made that two wave lengths be fixed for each transmitting station, and that each center be equipped for receiving from several stations in the chain simultaneously. Long Ride on Wheels. Sunbury, Pa—To travel 900 miles to Florida on a bicycle without hap was the experience of William Burrell, aged sixteen, of Sunbury, whose parents received recently and he had received safely. Burrell is a mechanical gems and no trouble in finding work at granges along the route. He will leave soon on the second leg of his journey to California. He intends to ride his wheel the whole way. MENACE TO FISHERIES Practices of Commercial Fishermen Condemned by Burnham. Atlantic Sturgeon and Salmon Have Practically Disappeared, He says—Pollution of Streams and Spawning Regulations Biomed. New York.—The salt water fisheries of this country are seriously menaced by the present practices of commercial fisherman, pollution of water and improper spawning regulations, declared John B. Burnham, a member of the Migratory Fish Conservation committee, and one of the originators of the migratory bird law. Off the coast of Lower California, Mr. Burnham asserted, the water is frequently white with fish killed by purse seals, who cannot take them to port for sale. He says that the Atlantic sturgeon and salmon have practically disappeared and added: "Unless radical action to preserve our fish is taken in the immediate future, this country will find itself facing the problem of trying to restore a natural resource of great importance which already has been lost." The Migratory Fish Conservation committee, an organization believing in the necessity for federal control of the fisheries, soon will introduce in congress a bill, similar to the migratory bird law, looking to the general protection of fish in the waters of the United States, Mr. Burnham said. The migratory bird law, he stated, has proved conclusively that game can be conserved by proper legislation and the Migratory Fish Conservation committee expects little opposition to the bill except from commercial fishermen and those states which derive a revenue from such fishing without a thought of the probable duration of the industry. COW'S RIB PART OF HIS SPINE Blacksmith, Predicted Hopeless Cripple for Life, Can Now Move About. Lynn, Mass—How would you feel walking about with a fourteen-inch section of a cow's rib as part of your groove, formerly a spider Bill? Cosgrove, formerly a cow, three times on the operating table at Kast sachusetts General hospital, answers that he is "feeling fine," and has no desire to "moc" when a bottle of milk is set before him. Once declared by physicians and surgeons doomed to be a cripple life and spend his time in bed, now each day in his home he hobbles about with the aid of crutches, and within a short time expects again to be walking the streets which he traversed before a horse kicked in the back. Cosgrove's life spent making doll's furniture, and a cold days he much inconvenienced. "The cold gets in my legs and I don't care much about moving," he told a reporter who called on him. TEST FLU ON 500 MONKEYS Doctors Say Without Vaccine Disease Generally Fatal; Same in Humans. New York.-Five hundred monkeys have been used by health officials in New York and Washington in the last two years in experiments looking to the development of vaccines against influenza and pneumonia. "We haven't learned anything about influenza," Dr. W. H. Park of the department of the experiments on the monkeys have shown conclusively that if one is vaccinated the cannot contract pneumonia when inoculated with the germ, but that, in the absence of vaccination, inoculation proceeds fatal in a majority of cases. Experiments on humans would bring the same results. LOOT MILAN CHURCH TOMBS Theft of Valuable Jewels Discovered at Services for Late Pope Benedict. Milan—a mysterious act of sacrilege in the Cathedral of St. Ambrose was discovered when it was found that three saintly tombs had been rified of-jewels of fabulous value. Thieves had broken open the tombs of St. Ambrose, St. Gervais and St. Protase. After robbing the coffins of their costly contents the sepulchers again were sealed and, to all appearances, were intact. The robbery was discovered accidentally through ceremonies attendant upon the death of Pope Benedict XV. Pastor Quits Pulpit to Hang Murderers The Rev. W. E. Robb, sheriff of Polk county, Iowa, has resigned his pastorate at the Urbandale Federated church, because, he said, he does not wish the church to be subjected to criticism when he hangs two murderers next spring. He has long been hanging Orle Cross and Eugene Weeks in April and May," Robb said. "I do not feel that I should be a regular pastor when I do this, as I would subject my church to too much criticism." HOUSEWIVES' HEADQUARTERS THE EMPORIUM QUALITY CANDIES - SAINT PAUL ALL NECESSITIES FOR THE HOME PRINT PAPER RUBLES Soviet Government Issue Now Runs Into Trillions. Commissar of Finance Plans Output of 23 Trillions for This Year—100,000 Paper Rubles Equivalent to One Gold Ruble. Moscow, Russia—Mere billions no longer suffice to indicate the amount of paper rubles annually issued by the soviet government. It runs into trillions. Mr. Krestnusky, commissar of finance, has informed the congress of soviets that the government contemplates the issuance in 1922 of 800,000,000,000 paper rubles which, he estimates, should have a buying power of 230,000,000 gold rubles. He pointed out that to the congress that this issue, while large in figures, is by no means large in buying power, for it is based on his estimate that the gold ruble is equivalent in buying power to 100,000 paper rubles. These paper rubles are the ordinary medium of exchange. He explained that the total paper issue for 1918 was 34,000,000,000 rubles, then worth 523,000,000 gold rubles. The issue for 1919 was 123,000,000,000,000 gold rubles, worth 490,000,000,000 gold rubles. The issue for 1929 was 985,000,000,000 rubles, worth 200,000,000 gold rubles. This makes the total paper money issue to date 11,142,000,000 rubles. The value of one gold ruble has been legally fixed at 100,000 paper rubles for the months of January, February and March, but when this rate was fixed a dollar, which is worth about two gold rubles, brought in the open market 250,000 to 275,000 paper rubles. The budget of the soviet government for 1922, presented to the congress of soviets by M. Krestinsky, and finally adopted by it, carries approvals for issuing a 1,877,000,000 gold rubles. The amount from railways, licenses, leases, customs, its 575,000,000 gold rubles, leaving an expected deficit of 1,302,000,000 gold rubles (a gold ruble is equivalent to about 51 cents). When Charles W. Siolberg of Chicago took his daily plunge into Lake Michigan the other day he had to go quite a ways out because the ice was too thick and several persons were skating. He had to dig a hole for himself to go in. The sun was nice and warm, but don't try to tell us you were, Charles. NEW YORKERS LASSO COUGAR Pursue Another in Montana Four Days, With No Firearms Permitted. Colorado Springs—Philip B. Stewart, capitalist, and Dr. Gerald B. Webb, tubercular specialist, associates of the late Theodore Roosevelt in mountain lion hunting in Colorado and well known in New York sportman circles, have returned from an exciting cougar hunt in northwestern Montana. No firearms were carried. With the aid of a guide they laissed a female cougar weighing 130 pounds, which was killed, after capture. The male cougar was pursued four days on horseback and foot through deep snow, with a temperature 35 degrees below zero, but escaped. Wolves Browl Streets in Spain Leon, Spain—Owing to the heavy snowfall in mountain regions, large numbers of wolves have made their way down the slopes into the plain districts. The villagers of Cordierio have been living in homes after dark on account of the large packs of wolves prowling the streets. MAN SLEPT IN STORE TO SLAY ROBBER NO. 23 After his store had been robbed 22 times in the last two years, F. J. Dunkle, of Berwick, Iowa, decided to sleep there and protect his property. The first night spent in the store he shot and killed a robber. $2.40 PER YEAR MEXIA TYPICAL MUSHROOM CITY Texas Town Grows From Sleepy Place of 3,000 to 30,000 Inhabitants Over Night. OIL BOOM IS RESPONSIBLE Hundreds' Are Forced to Sleep Out-Doors and There Is but One Bathhouse in the Place—Prices Are High. Mexia, Texas—Mexia, which has come into so much motiority through the sending of state troops here to put an end to outlawy, the sale of illicit booze and restore order, is a typical mushroom city. Overnight a tented city arose. From an apparently little sleepy town of 3,000 population in October, 1921, where old setters farmed for a living and eked out a bare existence from their hands to a bustling city of 30,000 people, and all in a few months, this is the recent record of Mexia, an old-time Texas town, which is feeling the effects of one of the numerous oil developments in the Southwest. The population now consists of an assortment of oil followers and thousands of men and women seeking employment. Consequently because of the exhortant prices charged for a room, if one were lucky enough to secure one, hundreds of men, favored by the long continued mild winter, are keeping along railroad tracks, public parking spaces and, in fact, anywhere they can. Beds in Tents Costly. Overnight a bed in a tent marked "A place to flop" soared from 50 cents a night to $3. A night in a crude plank structure where one didn't know his bed-fellow or the hundreds of others in the single room cost $3. Rail traffic jumped hundreds of per cent. There are two trunk lines, the Houston & Texas Central and the Trinity & Brazos Valley, leading through here, and passenger traffic is very heavy, while freight trains are frequently seen running three abreast, at heavy is the demand for oil machinery, and the train company spent $50,000 in enlarging its facilities. The water situation is not altogether what could be desired. Getting a bath here is quite an experience, indeed not a task. The old saying, "If you want to do something big—wash an elephant," certainly has found parallel in Mexia. But One Bathhouse. This luxury may be found, outside the woodland creeks, only in a downtown barber shop. The bathhouse is a stall in a wooden-floored, planked-in-closure. The plain, pine planks are bipedal, but the properties of the house have found that it is not necessary to maintain firstaid kits because the board floors are warped enough to allow the bather a foothold. But as for oil. There are a solid six miles of new derricks, drillers, outfits, wooden buildings and people where once there was the open prairie. A survey of all local lumber men shows that buildings completed or contracted for since October 1 total between $3,500,000 and $5,000,000. Gambling and drinking halls filled with dancing girls are open every night, and one may buy openly "red" and "corn" whisky at 50 cents a drink. Fortunes are lost overnight at the dice and roulette tables. FLOOD BENEFIT TO FARMERS Water Left Fine Silt of Good Earth on Impoverished Lands in Washington. Sedro Woolley, Wash.—A fine silt of very fertile earth layer from two to five inches deep was left on the inundated farm lands when the flooded Skagit river subsided to its regular channel. The layer of silt had added great value to the valley lands, according to owners. The flood, which was the most extensive known here since the early homestead days, lasted from December 10 until the middle of January. The rise of the river was attributed to torrential downpours in the foothills and mountains through which the Skagit flows. The heavy rain washed immense amounts of rich top soil from the hills into the flood and all this material was carried into the valley and deposited. BLINDNESS DECREASES IN U. S. Cases Drop From 57,272 in 1910 to 52,617 in 1920, Say Census Figures. Washington, D. C.—The number of blind persons in the United States decreased from 57,272 in 1910 to 52,617 in 1920, according to figures for the last census announced by the census bureau. The decrease was attributed in part to advanced methods for treatment in blindness and also to education of the public in preventing blindness. Blue Eyes Mean Soft Bones. Copenhagen—The bones of persons who have blue eyes are more fragile and more liable to fracture than those whose eyes are of other color, according to investigations made by Dr. Olaf Blegrad and Dr. Holger Hax —~ = ra a le THE APPEAL AN AMERICAN NEWSPAPER ISSUED WEERLY 4.

SUNlOSIAEAUGLS EGUBEAINT: ,, The daily papers are publishing a story of a woman in New York whose husband was something like old Blue Beard, in that he had a closet in his house, which he kept locked and gave his wife strict orders to keep out of it Of course this made her all the more anxious to learn what was ir that closet. So when her husban¢ went away on a trip a year ago het curiosity got the better of her, an¢ she opened the closet. She found there a group photograph of her hus. band’s family and discovered he wa: colored. Ye Gods and little fishes! this was terrible, so, NOW, she is seeking an annulment of their mar. riage. What we would like to know is why did ‘she wait a year after dis covery before instituting proceeding: for divorce? He certainly must have looked pretty good to her when she married him fourteen years ago and during the period she lived with hin up to the time of her discovery. Her discovery has not changed him one bit, he is the same man she promised to love, honor and obey and if. she had kept her promise might be living happily with the man of her choice. “What fools we mortals be.” HOT TIMES IN EGYPT. The British’ government has or. dered all possessors of firearms te surrender them within four days. Per. sons holding firearms are subject te court-martial and the penalty on con. vietion is death, The Egyptians being mostly Mo. hammedans and having no fear o! death, claim they are fighting for lib- erty and declare they will “shoot < Briton a day” until the return of Said Zagloul Pasha, who has been ar. rested and banished by the English. JIM CROW LEADERS. We had in a recent issue a sympo- sium of views of colored editors in various parts of the country on thé spesches of President Harding in Bir- mingham, Ala., and Atlanta, Ga. ‘One of the strongest of these is an editorial from the Richmond (Va.) Planet, by that fearless journalist John Mitchell, Jr. Referring to the desire of President Harding to have more “negro” leaders developed, The Plaret says: THE SOUTH IS.FULL OF THIS KIND OF LEADERS. DR. BOOK- ER T. WASHINGTON DID HIS PART IN DEVELOPING THIS KIND OF LEADERSHIP. IN LAT. ER YEARS HE REALIZED THAT HE HAD GONE TOO FAR, TO THE EXTENT OF ELIMINATING THE PRINCIPLES OF MANHOOD, WITHOUT WHICH NO RACE CAN RISE TO THE FULL HEIGHT OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP. This is a strong statement yet it is THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man who in the consci- * entious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, _ the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow. “cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the courtenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Surnner. _ absolutely true.

Washing ton speech and the white man's “good negro” pat on the shoulder, the Jimerow leaders’ tribe has increasec 80 enormously that it is now a men. ace to,be reckoned with in every com- munity in which there are a hundred colored men. Before he died Booker Washingtor repented in bitterness what he hac done and longed for life to wash-out his unwise course but it was too late. Although it may be news to many, it is a fact that after his death an ar. ticle, written by him, was printed in a leading magazine, in which he re pudiated segregation which he had s¢ long championed. No greater calamity could befall the colored people than the harvest: ing of a new crop of “jimerow negr leaders.” | _ EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES. President Harding and Secretary Hughes “have been moved” by com- plaints from Americans in the near past and have demanded equal op- iportunities for Americans in Persia ‘nd Mesopotamia, It seems that those who kick get at least some of the things they complain about. And ‘the President would sit up and take notice if the colored people kicked hard enough and in unison. - ‘ While the administration is quick to come to the aid of “Americans fabroad,” it does not hesitate to curse Americans at home.” Colored Americans have been. jimeérowed in every way right here in America. The President's speeches in Alabama ‘and Georgia were curses upon pa- troitic Americans and double curses because some lickspittle “leaders” tattempted to. condone them. inne ARE FULL OF MOONSHINE Of all the fool things that we have heard of lately, comes fromthe be- nighted state of South. Carolina, where one J. Walter Moon, a mem- ber of the state legislature, has in- troduced a bill in that august. body, which is intended to prohibit. the showing of pictures in colored: motion picture houses that contain the faces of white women. He states that it is a crime to have colored men and women gazing at faces of white women on the screen, and so would make a drastic law compelling col- ored motion picture houses to show pictures of colored people only. And, it seems, that a majority of the mem- bers of the House are as full of “moonshine” as Moon himself, for ‘they actually took the measure seri- ously enough as to pass it. What the asinine color prejudice of th javerage Southerner will not caus him to do is beyond our ken. We understand that the bill now awaits action in the South Carolin: senate. If made into a jaw it. will represent one of the most remarkable precedents ever established eyen in southern law-making bodies. “HOW ABOUT IT, MR. FROE? Since the last issue of THE AP- PEAL we havé learned more about the recently appointed recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia, Arthur G. Froe. He is a resident of Welch, W.

At the annual meeting of the Na- tional Association for the Advance- ment of Colored People, held in New ‘York last.week, Charles Edward Rus- tell, orator and author welcomed the advent of the. “new Negro” who, he declared, was ready to stand up for his rights, He also ridiculed Presi- dent Harding’s ‘assertion that there was an “impassable gulf” between col- ored and white people in the United States and advocated that, before at- tempting to lead the world to disar- mament, the United States disarm the. lyncher within her own borders. And-so say we all! _ Here is one paragraph from’ Mr. Russell’s speech: “I must frankly say to the gentleman who said that President Harding,” said Mr. Russell “that you don't know what you're talking about. If this great gulf you speak of between the races which you speak of exists, what does it look like? Have you a photograph of it? There is no such gulf, and the only limit to the development of you col ored people is the one you place your selves.” Protest always pays. For some time the people of India have been making “silent protest” against. the many irjustices from which they suf- fer and now it seems that results are about ‘to be achieved.

"The time has come when St. Paul should demand a 5-cent street car fare and further street car line extensions," says James F. Sperry, candidate for mayor, and president of the Sperry Realty & Investment Co. Mr. Sperry announced a lower carfare and car line extensions as planks in his platform at several meetings he addressed during the past week. "Every reason that warranted a 6-cent fare has now disappeared," Mr. Sperry said. "When the 6-cent fare was authorized it was for the purpose of giving the street railway company an increased income due to the higher cost of materials, higher wages and money rates that reached seven per cent. "Now materials have come down 30 to 40 per cent. Money is $2\%$ per cent cheaper, be available at $4\%$ instead of 7 per cent. The street railway company has cut wages 12 per cent. In every respect overhead expenses of the company have been reduced and are again at the point where they practically were at the time it was decided the company was entitled to charge a higher fare in order to meet increased operating expenses. "The company is not entitled to more than a 5-cent fare now. Such a fare would give it a reasonable return upon a fair valuation of its properties. That is what the state law transferring control of the street railway properties from the city to the state provides for." "The law also requires that city officials shall make a move for lower fares by bringing a proceeding before the state railroad and warehouse commission for a reduction. "I if I am elected mayor, I pledge myself to begin such action and to use all the power at my command to force it to a successful conclusion." Much impetus has been given to the Sperry campaign during the last week. Colonel George C. Lambert, former commander of the 151st Minnesota artillery (which made an exceptionally distinguished record overseas), has accepted the chairmanship of the Sperry general committee consisting of 500 members. Captain John J. Platt, 217 Lowry building, who was one of the first Minnesota men to go overseas and among the last to return, is chairman of the ex-service men's organization of 400 members supporting Mr. Sperry for mayor. A Progressive Business Men's league also has been formed to promote the candidacy of Mr. Sperry, B. F.

There were two entertainments given in St. Paul this week which deserved very much better patronage than they received; owing greatly to the very inclement weather, but very much more to the apathy of the people toward them. Especially is this true in the case of the Charity Ball for the benefit of Crispus Attucks Home which was a regular "frost." The shame of the public that should make such a mistake and everything given for the benefit of the Home. Wake up and do your duty, everybody. The second "frost" was the concert given by the Sunday School of Pilgrim Baptist church a splendid program of nine numbers was arranged, but the performers for six of those numbers failed to put in their appearance, but had they all done their duty, there was only a corporal's guard present when the church should have been filled. The management refunded a portion of the money, but we were there. Now, good people, don't that happen again. BIG TIME! THE THIRD OF A SERIES OF WINTER DANCES TO BE GIVEN BY GOPHER LODGE I.B.P.O.E.

The entertainment given by the Minneapolis Fraternal Hall Association at Arcadia Dancing Palace last Monday night attracted several hundred people but not quite enough to make it a "grand success." Those who attended had a good time dancing to the dulcet strains of Stevens' orchestra, but the "movies" were somewhat disappointing. Of course the management should not be blamed for the quality of the pictures. Mrs. Lillian G. Burris and Mrs. R. A.

If you are simply earning money and spending it, that is an awful thing. Mr. Blank earned from $100 to $200 per month for a dozen years, and then lost his job in the midst of a financial depression. In the meantime the money had gone to the bow wows; and, now, with a wife and two babies on his hands, and no job, and no money, he was in a bad fix. I hope to encourage you to put one-tenth of your income in a savings bank as a permanent reserve fund. I hope to encourage you to get a home of your own, on the installment plan, if necessary, but get a home of your own. Thus, with your own home and with your savings bank account increasing from week to week, you will have something to go on in case of reverses, and something to live on when old age overtakes you.
