OLD GREEK TOYS ARE LIKE TODAY'S
Modern Children Find Dolls 2,000 Years Old Very Much Like Their Own.
HAD TOPS AND MARBLES ALSO
If Children of 2,000 Years Ago Could Come to Life They Could Play in Complete Understanding With Children Today.
London.—Do you know London's 2,000-year-old toy shop? Go through the terra cotta room in the British museum and ask the kind, fatherly looking attendant to point it out to you. It looks right to the heart. Here the most human little comedy was played by three little girls and a small boy.
They came wandering in, rather tired of the Pharaohs, thinking, no doubt, more about eating than antiquity.
Father, too, looked bored. His general knowledge evidently had given out. Suddenly they saw something which spoke to them down 20 centuries; they saw dolls and little horses and carts, tiny bronze chairs for a doll's house, little animals which might have been saved from last year's Noah's ark, tops, marbles and—sinister touch—a slate with a 2,000-year-old multiplication table scratched on it.
Ancient Greek Toys.
All these once belonged to Greek children in Athens, in Corinth, in Kndos, Naucratis, Cyrenalca.
"Oh, how perfectly sweet!" cried one of the girls, as the four fair heads were bent over the case. "I say, dad," remarked the boy, "that looks like a fine top."
Dad apparently quite unconscious that the far-off ancient world had suddenly become alive and palpitating, solemnly read out the museum labels: "That," he said, "is a doll found in a child's tomb in Athens 2,000 years ago. . . ."
"And its arms move, too!" cried the girls. "And do look, daddy, at those dear little shoes that come on and off! I'd simply love it."
**Shadow Children There.**
The girls went into raptures over a doll in a red peaked cap. . . . Was it just imagination, or was there really a crowd of children there? Who were those others—a little shy, perhaps slightly annoyed? Just shadows, no doubt.
One thing is certain. If the children of 2,000 years ago had suddenly come to life these four little Londoners could have sat down and played with them in complete understanding.
A full-grown Greek might have slain dad at sight, but a six-year-old Corinthian would have met his children as friends and contemporaries on all matters of doll welfare.
REPAIR BRIDGE TO AID STORK
Neighbors Lay Planks and Officers Open It for Doctor to Reach Patient.
Philadelphia, Pa.—When Dr. Robert T. Elmer of Wayne the other night received a telephone call from a farmer living back of Newton square, informing him that the stork was hovering around and that the physician was desired to greet the bird, the only road that was not blockaded by snow was one leading over a bridge, across Darby creek, that was condemned and closed to traffic two weeks ago. Neighbors of the anxious farmer communicated with the Delaware county commissioners and obtained permission to open the bridge, with the proviso that Dr. Elmer use it at his own risk. The farmers laid planks upon the structure and the doctor drove his car carefully over it and hurried to his patient, to be there when the stork arrived.
TO PLAY CHRIST ON STAGE
For the First Time an Impersonation of Christ on the English Stage is Permitted.
London. — An impersonation of Christ has been permitted for the first time on an English stage in the production here on Stringberg's symbolic play, "Advent." A fourteen-year-old girl appeared as the Redeemer. Dramatic critics are inclined to take the view that the English stage censorship is broadening in regard to religious plays, probably owing to the fact that representations of Christ have appeared often in the films.
In the past years, several plays have been refused licenses because they included Christ as one of the characters. Others received permission on condition that no character should appear symbolic of the conventional conception of Divinity in human form.
Dogs Guard Frozen Boys.
Kalkaska, Mich.—Their two dogs standing faithfully by their side, despite the cold, Leonard and John Glide, thirteen and nine years old, respectively, were found frozen to death in fifteen inches of snow, about six miles west of South Boardman. The boys, sons of Conellus Glide, a farmer, had left home with their dogs to hunt rabbits. They apparently lost their way in the snowstorm that came up late in the day, and, overcome with exhaustion, lay down to sleep, cuddling against their dogs.
DRIVE OUT RUSS REDS
Persians Rid Their Country of Last of Communists.
Failure of Bolshevik Invasion of Persia Attributed to Quarrels of Three Bandit Chiefs—Russians Are Rather Cynical.
Baku, Azerbaijan.—The last of the Russian communists have arrived here from Persia, fleeing before the troops of the shah, under the general direction of the prime minister, Ghavamos Saltane, who demanded that the terms of the Anglo-Russian treaty for both nations to let Persia work out her own destiny be observed.
Rotstein, the soviet ambassador to Teheran, has been sent home, among others.
The invasion of Persia was undertaken in 1920, the Russian communists co-operating with three revolutionary bandit chiefs of Persia—Ehsanella, Kutchik and Halidar.
The failure of the movement is attributed here to quarrels between the three bandit chiefs.
Now that the effort of soviet Russia to sovietize Persia has definitely failed, the Russians are taking a rather impartial if not cynical view of the events during the last year. They maintain that the 60 or so little shabs, or feudal landlords, each with his court and army, continue to weaken the central government by their quarrels and ambitions, and that, so long as they have any power, no nationalist movement is possible and Persia will remain almost in the same condition as England of centuries ago under the barons.
Aside from the Anglo-Russian treaty, a multitude of reasons are given for the Red failure in Persia. One is that the soviet freedom to women, including abandoning of the chadrah, or veil, pleased the women, but not their husbands, and made many enemies for the soviet.
Another reason was that the Russians mistook the feudalists for reformers. These persons were ready for any revolution that would overthrow the power of the shah, until they realized that communism would wreck their own estates.
The merchant class at first welcomed the communists, only later to grow cold, as they saw the fruits of a division of property, house requisitions and other odds and ends of communism.
Yet another reason was that the peasants themselves, trained in the Islamic law to respect property, refused to accept a division of land belonging to their landlords.
PROTEST HIP-HIGH TURNSTILE
Liquor Flasks Are Imperiled in Rush Home Unless Owners Walk Backward.
New York—"They save your time," apologized the subway management in placards to their patrons when turnstiles turned by a "nickle-in-the-slot" were installed recently at all stations. "But they lost your liquor," protested those patrons who were accustomed to carrying something "on the hip." The inventor of the turnstiles made the mistake of making them hip high and scores of full flasks were broken in their owners' pockets when they failed to step lively enough. But protests to the management were unavailing, and the only satisfaction the victims got was the advice to walk out backward.
PEKING USING POLICEWOMEN
Feminine Officials Are Employed to Cope With Smuggling by Own Sex.
Peking—Woman police are the latest addition to the Peking force, which has the reputation of being exceptionally good and easily comparable with police forces in the cities of foreign countries. It was found that in the Hatamen Octroi that goods were being smuggled past the police by women, and in order to cope with the situation the ranks of the police in the district were augmented by ten policewomen. No report has yet been issued as to the success of this experiment, which marks the opening of a new field of work for the women of China.
Bore Into Big Hawaiian Volcano
Dare into Big Hawaiian Volcano.
Honolulu. - Extensive drilling into the great active volcano of Kilauea, on the island of Hawaii, will be undertaken during 1922 in an endeavor to determine the heat of the volcano, the quantity of steam underneath, the mineral constituents and the solution of other related questions, Prof. T. A. Jaggar, Jr., government volcanologist at Hawaii, announced.
Ranchmen Chase Wolf
20 Miles to Rope Him
Miles City, Mont—Bud and Sol Nichols, ranchmen, discovered a wolf trying to "cut off" a calf from a-herd of cattle. Recognizing the wolf as one that had been terrorizing cattle herds for several seasons, the brothers took after the animal on horseback. The wolf, a large gray one, gave them a chase of twenty miles, but the ranchers stuck on his trail and finally succeeded in roping him. This feat stands alone in the history of wolf hunting in this section.

COMMENTS ON PRESIDENT'S SPEECH.
President Harding and Social Equality
(From The Nation, New York.)
Find fault with the President after he has gone straight into Southern territory and into Southern colored man's political and economic rights, and the necessity of giving him an education equal to the white man's?
Why then cavil at any single phrase of the President? Why not overlook his one unfortunate utterance in order to bestow upon him unqualified praise? Because that one reference to social equality—"men of both races may well stand uncompromisingly against every suggestion of social equality"—fell like a lash upon every thought of colored man and offet even in far-off Buenos Aires, did. Even in far-off Buenos Aires, called forth protests; the national Argentine Socialist convention at once interpreted Mr. Harding as meaning that the condition of "the ten millions of colored population in the great republic will be eternally one of inferiority and subordination," and emphatically protested against it. True, the phrase quoted sweetened the rest of the dose for the South and saved the President from endless coarse abuse and fanatical denunciation as a nigger lover" and from the charge of living in the South. Yet would have been far better, he never uttered it, for by he played into the hands of all who justify any discrimination against the colored man.
At least he should have defined just what he meant by social equality. If he had in mind intermarriage only, he should, in justice to himself and to the colored man, have said so. Unfortunately the phrase covers a multitude of sins. It is the excuse for endless aggression and wrongdoing by the "superior race." In the final analysis in the South social equality is the hardest thing down the relations of black men with white men and in order to prevent them multitudes of our white Americans in the South honestly think themselves justified in resorting to any measures down to torture and burning. So certain are they that this must not be tolerated that they seek to prevent any approach to it by even forbidding colored people the use of public libraries, to say nothing of public carriers. Hardly an hour goes by in the life of a black adult without there being driven in upon his consciousness, and in republic which hypocritically boasts the freedom of all its citizens and their equality of opportunity he bears upon his brow the badge of shame and of deliberately classified inferiority. So President Harding ought to have informed us whether he meant by his words on social equality to approve of the jincrow car, the denial of all cultural opportunities in theaters, in concert and lecture halls to colored people, and the unending discrimination against them in restaurants and practically every walk of life. He has denied that he is opposed to that precious bit of Wilson wrongdoing, the segregation of the colored man in the departments at Washington. Until Mr. Harding
MAYOR
ILL GIVE ST. PAUL A BUSINESS.
FIGHT FOR A FIVE-CENT CAFE
BUILD UP ST. PAUL.
PROVIDE A PAYROLL FOR TICKET.
SAVE MONEY FOR THE TAXPOLIFIED ABOVE ALL OTHER CARE.
You have the interest of St. Paul.
Men are known by what the business record in St. Paul for the he is the man the city needs to h
does speak out on these questions, which mean more to the colored man than anything else, which daily bend his back, scarify his soul, and make every educated colored mother look upon her children and ask whether she can justify to them their being called into existence, he cannot have thought through the problem nor can he render the full service which we believe he desires to render, which we honor him for seeking to render.
Without in the least urging intermarriage we must protest against the President's propaganda of "fundamental, eternal, and inescapable race differences." We have no quarrel whatever with those of either race who urge that they call racial purity. But the president controls this matter is by a sound social public opinion and not by laws, nor by the branding iron, nor that slow fire which in the Middle Ages was relied upon to prevent the spread of Protestantism. These measures are as ineffective as they are cruel and debasing.
The laws against intermarriage in the South are the most effective promoters of immorality and of concubinage and they place the black woman at the mercy of the white man without redress. As a matter of fact, statistics prove that where marriage is satisfied the sociality of it is negligible. We may therefore reject racial intermarriage is socially unwise and racially destructive, nature herself will take a hand and control it without men's having to resort to crime to check it. But in the last analysis anyone who believes in individual freedom and liberty must believe in the right of every sound individual to seek his mate where he will and if necessary to pay the price for his deed in social ostracism to which there is no need of adding legal penalties. Once more we repeat that racial admixture is not prevented by intimate disinclination of the races, it will be prevented by denying to one of them ordinary courtesies which individuals earn by their conduct or deserve by their essential humanity:
What Mr. Harding has yet to see is that if the colored man obtains the economic freedom, the political freedom, and the boon of education which he craves for him this whole question of race relationship will at once adjust itself on a far nobler and better basis; that as long as the question of social equality is made the excuse for abuse, ill treatment, and the denial of rights sacrely guaranteed by the Constitution it works infinite harm to the whites who thus make of their republic an hypocrisy and defile their own souls by sponsoring injustice and wrong. There is something sadly wrong with a racial integrity which must be preserved in that manner. Moreover, if there are "fundamental, eternal, and incapable race differences" they will take care of the situation themselves. But whether they do or not, no President is true to America, who does not insist that every American citizen shall have the freest social opportunity without barriers of class or race or color, and political freedom as well.
Condemns President's Conception of American Citizenship.
(From the Afro-American, Baltimore)
President Harding's Birmingham speech is being criticised by colored
people because it promises the colored race too little and by the white people because it promises too much. The ten thousand colored people who listened to the President appeal for political and educational equality for them, cheered because they know that their own state disfranchises them by the thousands and robs them of millions of dollars of school funds. His twenty thousand white hearers were correspondingly silent. On the other hand President Harding subscribed to the white South's view of "social equality," which means intermarriage laws, jimcrow streets and railways, no political access to oppose and discrimination at the two races. Carried out to its logical conclusion the President would sanction a separate school for the hundred colored families in Bangor Me, separate cars for the Boston subways and a disruption of the Methodist Episcopal church. It comes with poor grace from a President of the United States to thunder "Race amalgamation, there cannot be" and close his eyes to millions of mulattoes in this country who represent the lust of the white race. We ardently believe with the President that our people should divide their notes; we may not we preferred to hear him say so before his election rather than after it. The Afro-American admires the President's courage, believes in his sincerity, but condemns his conception of American citizenship, his ignorance of the history of civilization and his bad taste.
Complete Surrender to Lily-White.
(From the Independent, Atlanta, Ga.) "I will not appoint any colored men to office in the South. Sink or swim, survive or perish, live or die, I shall stand by this position."
Is that in keeping with his great utterances of political equality at Birmingham? On the contrary does it not contradict that policy?
The President has made a complete surrender to the lily-whites who have moved heaven and earth to eliminate the Negro from party councils. He has placed the leadership in the hands of such men as Bascom Slemp of Virginia. Colored men were driven out of the Republican convention by order of Slemp. On July 26, C. B. Miller, Joe Keling and Houston were delegated to come to Georgia and move the regular Republican state central committee and put a new committee in charge because the President said there must be white leadership without regard to regularity, and the rules of the party.
We again ask, does this comport with the President's demand for political equality as advocated at Birmingham? We submit this to the deliberate judgment of mankind and ask a verdict.
Should Have Left Out Discussion of Social Equality...
(From the Advocate, Cleveland, Ohio)
The President should have left the social equality phase out entirely. We would have been content with his utterances on the phases of equal opportunity, the right to vote, but, with his right to own a sweet portion with which he would have us suffice ourselves.

BONUSES CAME EASY
Frenchman Quits Baking to Live on Soft Money.
Found That Regimental Accounts Were Behind and Collected 35,000 Francs Before Crooked Work Was Discovered.
Paris.—In prewar days there was a baker in Paris as honest as a baker could be. Then he went to the front and fought well, receiving two wounds and two mentions in army dispatches. When he came home he found work hard to get, but that would not have interfered with his honesty except for the good or bad luck of getting paid his demobilization bonus twice over. He kept both and began to think.
If two bonuses were sent to him there was no logical reason why three or four, or forty, might not equally well come his way, so he wrote to his former regiment complaining that he had not received his bonus, and because regimental accounts were not up to date, as has happened before, a third bonus was sent to him. He thought no more of baking bread.
He wrote to the appropriate department, saying that he had lost his military papers and might new identity papers be sent to him. They were. Then he wrote to other regiments—dozens of other regiments—complaining that his bonus had never been sent to him, and let them send it and be quick about it or the ministry of war would hear about it.
Some regimental accounts were properly kept and up to date. These took no notice or wrote in reply that he had mistaken his regiment. Others, with less clear consciences, sent the bonus by return. In two years the hero "crook" maker made no less than 35,000 francs out of the fears of quartermaster sergeants and the like. Then the crash came, and now he is in prison awaiting his fate.
SELLS CORN 5 CENTS KERNEL
Washington Farmer Develops Gigantic Type of Grain by Careful Selection.
Prosser, Wash.—J. D. Sutton, a well-known farmer residing near Byron, is selling seed corn at 5 cents per kernel. It is a species of huge growth developed within the confines of Sutton's farm.
Last fall in county fairs around the northwest, Sutton took first prizes with twenty-five stalks of this corn, most of which were between twenty-one and twenty-four feet high. Each stock, some as large as a man's forearm, maintained several huge ears of corn.
He received a letter from an eastern seed house asking for facts regarding his monster cornstalks. By correspondence he found it to be valuable and soon received an offer amounting to about 5 cents per kernel. Sutton developed the tall, heavy fodder corn by growing on rich bottom land and each season saving for seed only the earliest and largest specimens of ears.
PRAISE NEW PEACE DOLLAR
Assay Commissioners Also Find United States Coins of 1921 Up to Standard.
Washington. — All United States coins of 1921 have successfully passed their official examination, according to the report completed tonight by the annual assay commission appointed by President Harding to test the year's coinage.
Examination of the 1921 coins was made at the Philadelphia mint, the commission testing a number of pieces out of each batch of metal melted for coinage during the year and reporting that all of them were found to be fully within the requirements of the law.
Resolutions commending the operation of the mint and the new standard silver peace dollar were adopted by the commission, which noted with approval the coinage of "a silver dollar commemorative of the peace following the World war, thus completing the redesigning of the entire silver coinage of the government; and also that the designs of the new coinage have now been brought to a state of artistic excellence compared with the best coinage of existing nations."
The commission is headed by Controller of the Currency Crissinger.
Called Iale of Ignorance
London. -Bardesy, a little island off the Welsh coast, near Pwllhall, has been described as the "island of ignorance," for it is only just recently that men of the age of thirty-four have begun to go to school. Up to three years ago the inhabitants believed in ghosts and fairies. Now they are to have the services of a minister of religion and a school teacher.
Repentant Robber Is

A repentant thief who returned to apologize after being put to flight with a revolver, was given $5 by Frank Harris, a tallor, of Freeport, Ill., who was attacked by the would-be burglar, Harris chased the man away and a half hour later the bandit reappeared, begging forgiveness and saying he was penless. Harris gave him $5 to help him along.

ASBESTOS SLOW IN DEVELOPMENT
Ancients Knew of Qualities but Technical Difficulties Delayed Its Use.
REDUCES HORRORS OF FIRE
Used by Romans for Funeral Dress of Bodies Which Were to Be Cremated — Asbestos Curtains Common in Theaters.
New York.—It is not so very long ago that a fire on the stage of a theater was an ever present menace to the audience. Today most playhouses possess an asbestos curtain which can be dropped at a moment's notice and which will absolutely confine any fire to that part of the theater. Asbestos is a mineral, found in the earth just like coal and iron, and mined. A few years ago it was merely a curiosity to be found only in the laboratory of the chemist. Today it is used in many ways and forms an important factor in the industrial market of the world.
This mineral is not a modern discovery. Asbestos was known to the ancients. The Romans used the substance, deriving their supplies from the Italian Alps and the Ural mountains. One of the uses to which asbestos cloth was put in those days was to wrap bodies which were to be cremated. In fact, it was called the "funeral dress of kings," as so much difficulty was found in making the cloth that only a king or the extremely wealthy could afford it. The slowness of the modern development of the asbestos industry has been caused by the technical difficulties of weaving the short silky fibers into cloth or combining them in other ways to produce articles of commercial utility.
Comes From Canada.
The asbestos used in the United States comes almost entirely from Canada. There are deposits of the mineral in Arizona, California, Georgia and other states, but this is not of the high quality of the Canadian asbestos. There are various types of asbestos, and the sort that can be carded, spun and woven in a manner similar to wool, flax or silk is found mainly in the Thedford mines of Quebec. It is this property of the mineral that fooled the Roman historian, Pliny, in thinking it to be of vegetable origin and that has given rise to its designation as the "mineral vegetable" and the "physical paradox." Northingway Quaternary
Nonburning Qualities Known.
The raw asbestos is subjected to a dressing process which consists of separating the asbestos from the rock in which it is imbedded. In the low-grade product machines are used for this, while in the high-grade material hand dressing is resorted to.
The fact that asbestos will not burn was known ages ago, and while that is responsible for a very important and valuable application of the substance today, it does not constitute the sole use of this product. The theater curtains are spun from asbestos fiber of the best quality. About 1,000 of these curtains are made each year. The largest asbestos curtain in the world is found in the Hippodrome. In some theaters asbestos cloth is also used as a lining for walls and ceilings and there is also a tendency to make all the scenery on the stage and the draperies from this material.
Has Many Uses
Asbestos cloth coated with rubber is used in making gaskets and packings for high pressure steam pipes. The cloth is also used in laundries, hotels, the automobile, the limings of brakes and for a host of other purposes. Perhaps the most interesting use of asbestos cloth is in the manufacture of garments. The firemen clad in asbestos boots, trousers, coat, gloves and headwear would be fireproof to a high degree, and could fight fires with much more comfort and effectiveness. Most of us are familiar with asbestos table covers and pads, flatiron holders, baking sheets, stove mats and other articles common in the household.
The asbestos fiber can also be woven into a rope useful in fire fighting. These fireproof ropes are not heavy, do not become slippery and are not injured by water. Asbestos twine is made for use in the laboratory, sewing thread and incandescent lamp thread.
Asbestos, being also heat insulating, is used in covering steam pipes, boilers and all sorts of heating surfaces to prevent the loss of heat by radiation. Not only will an asbestos coating keep the heat within the pipe but it will also keep heat from entering pipes, and it is used in covering refrigerating pipes and apparatus.
Asleep. That Was All.
Lafayette, Ind.-Raymond Straub, eleven years of age, a newsboy, was found unconscious in the hallway of a hotel one night and was taken to a local hospital in the belief that he had been injured or perhaps poisoned. The lad could not be aroused, and physicians worked several hours trying to determine what was the matter. When the bow awake he was surprised to find himself in the hospital. He told the doctors that he was tired and exhausted when he entered the hotel, and it was determined that the boy was only sound asleep when he failed to respond to restoratives.

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: and be ye kind one to another, and tender-hearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you—Ephesians 4:31, 32.
GET BUSY WITH THE U. S. SENATORS.
The Dyer anti-lynching bill has been passed by the house of representatives and is now in the senate in the hands of the judiciary committee.
If the judiciary committee reports the Dyer bill, its enactment by the senate is almost certain. The senators on that committee are:
Knute Nelson, Minnesota; William P. Dillingham, Vermont; Frank B. Brandegee, Connecticut; William E. Borah, Idaho; Albert B. Cummins, Iowa; LeBaron B. Colt, Rhode Island; Thomas Sterling, South Dakota; Geo. W. Norris, Nebraska; Richard P. Ernst, Kentucky; Samuel M. Shortridge, California; Charles A. Culberson, Texas; Lee S. Overman, North Carolina; James A. Reed, Missouri; Henry F. Ashurst, Arizona; John K Shields, Tennessee; Thomas J. Walsh Montana.
Now is the time to write or telegraph the members of the judiciary committee and ask them to support the bill. It is especially important that the 'people of Minnesota flood Senator Nelson with letters and telegrams asking him to vote for a favorable report on the bill. The outlook is favorable but work must be done to make assurance doubly sure.
THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.
The "jimcrow negroes" who are continually repeating "the North is no better than the South" know they are lying when they utter such rot. The oppression of the colored people is ten thousandfold greater in the South than in the North. Ninety percent of the lynching occurs in the South, and ALL of the disfranchisement and jimcrow laws. A little instance which is illuminating. A colored man was arrested in Chicago last week charged with having assaulted a white woman with a club, breaking her skull. A doctor diagnosed his case as dementia praecox and he was committed to the psychopathic hospital for treatment.
Arthur C. O'BRIEN Candidate for COUNCILMAN PLATFORM--DUTY
What would have happened in Georgia? Well this is what did happen in Georgia last summer even when no white woman was involved. A colored man shot a white man and in turn was shot by a white mob. He was taken to a hospital where he died shortly after. About midnight the white mob went to the hospital to get the wounded colored man and lynch him. Exasperated at finding that he was dead, the mob broke into the dead room, got the corpse, carried it to the outskirts of the city and burned it to a crisp. The charged remains were then returned to the hospital. This happened in the city of Augusta, Ga., in the Year of Our Lord, Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-one.
CURIOSITY CAUSES COMPLAINT.
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 in that closet. So when her husband went away on a trip a year ago her curiosity got the better of her, and she opened the closet. She found there a group photograph of her husband's family and discovered he was colored. Ye Gods and little fishes! this was terrible, so, NOW, she is seeking an annulment of their marriage. What we would like to know is why did she wait a year after discovery before instituting proceedings 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 him 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."
EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES.
President Harding and Secretary Hughes "have been moved" by complaints from Americans in the near east and have demanded equal opportunities for Americans in Persia and 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 abroad," it does not hesitate to curse "Americans at home." Colored Americans have been jimcrowed in every way right here in America. The President's speeches in Alabama and Georgia were curses upon patrotiic Americans and double curses because some lickspittle "leaders" attempted to condone them.
HOW ABOUT IT, MR. FROE?
Since the last issue of THE AP-PEAL we have learned more about the recently appointed recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia, Arthur G. Free. He is a resident of Welch, W. Va., where he has been a member of the bar for twenty years and stands high with the legal fraternity. He has been very active and successful in Republican politics in his native state. He is well educated and a fluent speaker. All well and good, and we congratulate him upon his recognition as worthy of reward for services rendered, but we have not changed our attitude of last week in asking, has he been selected, for the reason that like all of the other colored men who have been given places under the present regime, he will head a jim-crow office?

I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner.
place? The colored people who supported Harding have a right to know. And the colored people ought to rise in their might, if they have any, and protest against any more jimcrow business.
THEY ARE FULL OF MOONSHINE
Of all the fool things that we have heard of lately, comes from the benighted state of South Carolina, where one J. Walter Moon, a member of the state legislature, has introduced 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 colored motion picture houses to show pictures of colored people only. And, it seems, that a majority of the members of the House are as full of "moonshine" as Moon himself, for they actually took the measure seriously enough as to pass it. What the asinine color prejudice of the average Southerner will not cause him to do is beyond our ken.
We understand that the bill now awaits action in the South Carolina senate. If made into a law it will represent one of the most remarkable precedents ever established even in southern law-making bodies.
RAPS AMERICAN CHRISTIANS (?)
In a recent interview a Japanese gentleman walloped the American Christian hypocrites in these words and hits the nail on the head:
"I am a Christian, but I cannot reconcile the rules which Christianity taught me with American practices. Americans are overly suspicious and narrow hearted. Our nation is supposedly anti-Christian, but we have broader hearts.
"American missionaries teach us that all people are equal, so we welcome Americans, let you travel throughout Japan unmolested, buy property, engage in business, and give you equal rights with our own people when you are in Japan. You do not practice in America what your missionaries teach us we must do, if we want to be Christians. Even the missionaries do not practice what they preach when they return to America."
CRINGING AWAKENS CONTEMPT
We cannot win by blinking at facts or by ignoring fundamental principles. Editor J. Q. Adams of the ST. PAUL APPEAL is sound to the core and we shall all have to accept his kind of leadership if we expect to attain our full stature and status under the American Constitution. Cringing may be comfortable for the time being put it is mighty humiliating for all the time thereafter and it awakens contempt for us as it should do in the minds and hearts of our adversaries. Editor Adams points the way, whether we accept his advice or not and sooner or later he wil blaze the way to our financial, industrial and political enfranchisement in this country where none will dare molest us or make us afraid. Wise colored leaders will take notice and govern themselves accordingly.
The foregoing from The Planet of Richmond, Va., edited by Hon. John Mitchell, Jr., who recently polled 20,000 votes as candidate for governor of the state, is pleasing to the editor but we accept it as a tribute to the cause for which THE APPEAL has fought for nearly forty years rather than a personal compliment.
JIM CROW LEADERS.
We had in a recent issue a symposium of views of colored editors in
various parts of the country on the speeches of President Harding in Birmingham, 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 Planet says:
THE SOUTH IS FULL OF THIS KIND OF LEADERS. DR. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON DID HIS PART IN DEVELOPING THIS KIND OF LEADERSHIP. IN LATER YEARS HE REALIZED THAT HE HAD GONE TOO FAR, TO THE EXTENT OF ELIMINATING THE PRINCIPLES OF MAN HOOD, WITHOUT WHICH NO RACE CAN RISE TO THE FULL HEIGHT OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP.
This is a strong statement yet it is absolutely true. No single thing in the history of the colored people in the United States has done so much to prevent the full attainment of citizenship as that speech of Booker Washington delivered in Atlanta, Ga., in 1895.
Since then the descent to hell has been swift and sure and the depths were sounded when the other day, Warren G. Harding, President of the United States, stood by the side of the Grady monument in Atlanta, pronounced a eulogy on Henry W. Grady, the most bitter, dangerous and insidious enemy of the colored people that the country has produced, declared that the race question must be settled by the segregation of American citizens.
Lured on by the enthusiastic reception by the South of the B. Washington speech and the white man's "good negro" pat on the shoulder, the jimcrow leaders' tribe has increased so enormously that it is now a menace to be reckoned with in every community in which there are a hundred colored men.
Before he died Booker Washington repented in bitterness what he had 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 article, written by him, was printed in a leading magazine, in which he repudiated segregation which he had so long championed.
No greater calamity could befall the colored people than the harvesting of a new crop of "jimcrow negro leaders."
Protest always pays. For some time the people of India have been making "silent protest" against the many injustices from which they suffer and now it seems that results are about to be achieved. The government has introduced several bills for the repeal of nearly all of the repressive and restrictive laws now on the statute books. And because they have protested, England will give independence to the Egyptians. Down South, Moton et al are lauding the brutal people who have stolen the rights of the colored people and restricted them to a jimcrow place in the social scheme.
Representative Fordney of Michigan has introduced a bill in the house proposing a loan of $5,000,000 to Liberia. The Liberians seem to want the money and the president was in the U. S. last year making an appeal for it; but THE APPEAL believes it to be a dangerous matter. If the money is loaned and not promptly paid it will be an excuse for the United States to go in and take possession, and thus get a foothold in Africa, and then Uncle Sam will proceed to mistreat and murder the Liberians just as he did in Haiti. The Liberians would do well to sidestep that loan.
The supreme court of North Carolina has just decided that schools are not necessities. Long ago the white people of the state decided that education was not necessary for the colored children, about thirty cents per capita, more or less for their instruction while the white children received about fifty times as much. North "Caliny" is a great old commonwealth, more or less.
President Harding evidently has a keen sense of the ridiculous. He has recently appointed Brig. Gen. John H. Russell to investigate conditions in Haiti. It will be recalled that Russell, as Colonel Russell, was in command in Haiti when the outrages complained of were perpetrated. In other words, he will investigate what happened under his own regime.
A campaign to have legislatures of all states pass bill requiring regular courses in the study of the United States Constitution has been started in New York. Illinois, Iowa, Michigan and Vermont have such a law. What will Georgia, Mississippi and Texas, where they violate the Constitution every day, have to say about the matter?
Prof. Kelly Miller of Howard university is like the proverbial cow who gives a pail of milk and then kicks it over. Miller wrote a strong article in reply to President Harding's southern speeches and then spoiled all by first lauding B. Washington and then writing in favor of jimcrow schools. Steady, Kelly!
Cuba and Nicaragua are asking Uncle Sam to withdraw the troops which have been foisted upon them. Why not make a clean sweep of it and bring home the troops from Haiti and Santo Domingo too?

HENRY J. CREPEAU
I am native born here and feel what I believe to be a common interest with public spirited citizens who love their city. I have never lived elsewhere, and my social and business interests are wholly bound up in St. Paul. As its own citizens must form its government, I offer my candidacy in that common interest and in a trust that my fellow citizens might regard me worthy of a larger sphere of public activity. Together with others I have been selected for nomination by the Working People's Political League at its convention of January 14 and the referendum which followed. I am unreservedly with my associates and for the declaration of principles adopted by the League February 18.
Events and a sense of public duty have made life place for me in the city's life, and acquiescence rather than my seeking, and with no dedication to the requisites of that position.
Government should reflect the wish of the citizens, and opportunity should be given for free expression of the popular will; and earnest effort should be made for an honest and practical interpretation of that will.
I believe the government's paramount duty is to its people, that their well-being and integrity as self-supporting citizens may be best conserved.
I believe in a progress for the city that will make it a better place to live in—that improvements should be made for improvement of its public services, primarily for its schools and play spaces, primarily for the greater comfort and better service to that largest class of citizens who are mostly dependent on these facilities. I believe these accomplishments should be aimed with reasonable regard for costs, and in the equitable apportionment of such costs in taxation.
I believe in the impartial and effective enforcement of the law.
If elected I pledge my best efforts in the furtherance of these professions.

ROSCOE GONKLIN PERKINS
DIES SUDDENLY FROM HEART
FAILURE.
Well Known and Universally Loved Citizen Answers the Call of the Grim Monster February 24, 1922.
Whereas it is given unto all men to die, yet a call from the Grim Reaper is seldom welcomed; and always brings sorrow, to a greater or less number of those who are related by consanguinity, or acquainted with, his victim; but seldom has a death seemed to bring more widespread sorrow and regret than that of Mr. Roscoe Conklin Perkins, of 651 St. Anthony avenue, who fell from heart failure shortly after leaving his home Friday of last we.k, and died in the arms of Mr. James Tripplet, who was with him.
The deceased was born in the town of Edwards, Miss., January 1, 1882, and therefore was only a little over 40 years of age.
He was a son of Mr. E. E. and Mrs. Ida Perkins. His father was a man of considerable consequence in his community, being postmaster, president of a bank, secretary of a Mason-
ROSGOE GONKLIN PERKINS
ic Benefit association, and was connected with many other activities. He like his son, dropped dead from a similar cause, February 27, 1910, respected and revered by all who knew him. The deceased attended Alcorn university for some time, but left there to go to Havana, Cuba; and from there came to St. Paul in the spring of 1905, and made this city his home. He was an employee at the Town and Country club for years, and then went to Winnipeg, Canada, where he was employed by the Canadian Pacific railroad, and remained with that company until 1920, when his health began to fail and he returned to St. Paul and lived here until his sad demise. He was a good citizen, and made friends as rapidly as he did acquaintances, as he had a very genial personality, and his pleasant smile, which he had for everybody, will never be forgotten. He was the fortunate possessor of a magnificent home, handsomely furnished, and was devoted to his wife and son and beautiful home.
His funeral was held at his late residence on Tuesday afternoon, at 2:30 o'clock, Rev. A. H. Leatland officiating. The spacious parlor of the residence were filled to overflowing with friends, who came to pay their last tributes of respect to the deceased.
The billian Lewis sang "Face to Face."
The floral tributes were very numerous and extremely beautiful. There were many designs, but most prominent among them were a large blanket of roses, a loving token from twenty-six of his railroad companions; and a vacant chair of roses from his loving and sorrowful wife.
The funeral was under the direction of Mrs. T. H. Lyles, interment at Oakland cemetery. The pall-bearers were deserts, sheo. McCarty, Simpson Wes, R. R. Tervis, Simpson Redd, Wm. Woo, Georgy Ackermann. The deceased leaves to mourn his sad demise, wife, son, mother, five brothers, one sister, numerous relatives, and friends without number.
Relatives present at the funeral were, wife and son Raynard; sister, Miss Sudie Perkins of Chicago; brother, Ellis E., Winnieipin; Norval E., Seattle; Addison L., Chicago; cousin, E. Stewart, Minneapolis; Mr. and Mrs. George Moore, cousins; Mrs. Alice Majors, Mr. and Mrs. Lavelle Stafford
CARD OF THANKS
We desire to tender our sincere and grateful thanks to all who in any way rendered aid, gave words of sympathy and condolence, at the bereavement of Roscoe Conklin Perkins, our husband, father and brother. Especially do we thank the donors of our beautiful floral tributes. And more especially do we thank the James Cox for her words of sympathy, which expresses, in the words of James Whitcomb Riley, the sentiments of all.
He Is Just Away
I cannot say and I will not say
That he is dead, he is just away!
With a cheery smile and a wave of
the hand
He has wandered into an unknown
land
And left us dreaming how very fair
It needs must be, since he lingers
there;
And you—oh you, who the wildest
yearn
For the old-time step and the glad
return.
Think of him faring on, as dear In the love of There, as the love of Here.
Think of him still as the same, I say,
He is not dead, he is just away!

The officers and members of Pilgrim Bantist church met on last Monday night and unanimously passed a resolution to extend a call to Rev. W. H. Harris, of Missouri, to fill the vacancy in the pulpit. The congregation has been without a pastor for several months, and it is remarkable how all months, and it is remarkable how without a regular leader, Rev. Harris, is an amble sneaker and a man of vast Christian experience.
Mrs. Doris Booker, who is separated from her husband, Preston Booker, went where he roamed last Sunday and bombarded his windows with snowballs to attract his attention and cause him to come outside. He came, and also did a policeman, who had witnessed the bombardment, and he got in the game and finally arrested the bombarder, and in court Monday she was given a thirty-day suspended sentence.
A very interesting program was rendered last Sunday afternoon at Welcome hall under the auspices of the U. N. I. A. M. Miss Daisy McMilan gave a splendid talk on the aims and achievements of the society. Mrs. M. Almins and a paper, and Mrs. Joseph Bryan, secretary of the Women's Co-operative Alliance, Minneapolis, gave a splendid address on "Adult Responsibility of Juvenile Delinquency." Her talk was very instructive.
Mrs. Clarence E. Thompson, 520 Western avenue, and her child, died in childbirth at the St. Paul hospital last Wednesday evening, aged 34 years. The deceased is the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Gardner, 369 Jay street, and is the first of their 11 children to die. The remains will be taken to the home of the deceased tonorrow by Simpson & Wills, the funeral directors. The funeral will be held at St. Peter Claver Catholic church Monday morning, Father Theobald officiating.

Rev. T. J. CARR'S STATEMENT FOR THE PUBLIC
Rev. T. J. CARR'S STATEMENT FOR THE PUBLIC
When I came to St. Paul five years ago, I found Memorial Baptist church with a small membership and with responsibilities for too great for its strength. It requires a great amount of earnest work, vicarious sacrifice, and careful business management to pull it out of the kinks and get a start uphill. This was done, however, by increasing the membership and paying the heavy indebtedness. It was only by the favor and help of God to increase the ship from sinking. Loving the ship we built myself, I served four years for undersalary, and grappled with "high cost of living." Of course, I thought that when the mortgage and all debts were paid there would be a spontaneous reciprocation of appreciation. The new members, however, becoming twice as many as the old ones, had gotten into several offices; and I was charged with putting them over the old ones. I was glad of the increase of members, but intended no partiality to either new or old ones. However, I was able to meet these things, and without solicitation I offered my resignation to avoid being misunderstood in the threatening controversy. Small pay made it necessary to condition my resignation upon the payment of moving expenses.
I urged all to vote to accept the resignation, and they did so with few exceptions. After reflecting, many urged a reconsideration and the acceptance was rescinded at the next regular business meeting. While this was complimentary, I immediately to some of my opposers that if my moving house was still would leave. It was ninety days before the next step was taken, and this was taken when I was absent on my first real vacation in twelve years. This action took advantage of a faithful servant while his back was turned and an attempt was made to pass a resolution, which was not introduced by those who voted previously with the prevailing side, and therefore was out of order. Moreover, such confession was impossible to take a correct count, had a vote been taken, Incorrect records, however, recorded it passed. When I returned, the church repudiated the resolution by an overwhelming vote.
I had accepted work in New York, but finding it necessary to defend myself in a controversy which had been unnecessarily and rashly forced upon me, I cancelled all New York engagements. I was not offered the moving expenses until after the matter was put into court, and then $400 was offered upon terms which I could not honorably accept. Before the court settled the matter, a visiting preacher accepted a diocesan call from the minority. This, together with the court's decision against the majority, destroyed the last hope of keeping the church from splitting:
The meanest thing to occur in the history of my life was the unprovoked attack upon my family at the business meeting, October 28, when a determined effort was made to draw me into physical combat and injure my reputation.
I think, as do the majority of the church, and the many friends of the community, that my record of service richly entitles me to decent treatment, at least, and I heartily thank members and friends for their many expressions of loyalty and sympathy which bore me up through the ordeal of unwarranted persecution. The same number embarked with a larger number present when the resignation was accepted than when it was rescinded, and upon the face of this showing the judge granted the injunction. Whereas, about the same number were present at both meetings. In the whole affair, I was made the target for what the majority did. That's why the majority employed my attorneys and paid them.
The time-honored "rule of the majority" in the Baptist church has suffered violence. Going to court is never results in any good to the Christian cause. The matter is now in the hands of God. Let us await His verdict.
His purposes ripen fast,
Unfolding every hour;
Though bitter be the bud,
Sweet will be the flower."

THE DOINGS IN AND ABOUT THE
GREAT "FLOUR CITY."
Matters Social, Religious and General
Which Have Happened and Are to
Happen Among the People of the City.
SATURDAY, MARCH 4, 1922.
"Perry the Printer" is on the sick
list this week.
Mr. and Mrs. E. B. James have
moved to 3924 Fourth Ave. S.
Mrs. R. L. De Leo, 1501 East Lake
st., is on the sick list this week.
You would probably have more
friends if they were sure they could
use you before you had occasion to
use them.
Dr. Fred C. Nelson, specialist on rheumatism, has taken larger remodeled offices at the same address, 424 Nicollet Ave., Suite 16.—Advertisement.
Under the efforts of Mrs. Susie Bogie and Mr. W. C. Jeffrey the Sunday Forum has been revived and will meet every other Sunday afternoon at Border M. E. church.
Prop. W. T. Johnson, has secured the services of the popular waitress, Miss Essie Langum, at his Cafe, Chicken and Oyster Parlor, 2010 Cedar Ave.—Advertisement.
Johnson's, "Good Things to Eat," 2010 Cedar Ave. cor. Franklin, has a regular "Chicken Parlor" open all night. Telephone for reservations South 0805.—Advertisement.
MISTER, if you are thinking of buying a car, new or used, you can learn how, when and where you can get a bargain by calling Drexel 0254 or Drexel 1683. DO IT NOW.
The local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. held a mass meeting Monday night in the mayor's reception room that was largely attended. Arrangements were made for a grand membership drive.
Mrs. Ollie Phelps, who is widely known as the "Fried Chicken Queen of the World," has purchased what was formerly Stewart's hotel, 246 Fourth Ave. S., and will conduct the "Chicken Shop De Luxe" there.
The Polar Wave Tailoring Co., Willie Wicks, proprietor, is now located at 535 Dupont, near 6th Ave. N. Custom tailoring, repairing, dry cleaning, pressing. Hats cleaned and blocked. We call and deliver. — Advertisement.
The legal fraternity of the city has a new addition in the person of Atty. Glesner Fowler, who formerly practiced law in California. He has opened offices in the old New England Bldg., 80 S. Sixth St. He also has his office open evenings and Sundays. Advertisement.
The pre-lenten promenade and style show at Elks' hall, under the management of Mdesnames L. G. Burris and R. A. Van Hook, last Monday evening, attracted a large crowd and was a very fine affair in every way. There were 15 living models that were "very easy to look at." The beautiful lady's $15.00 hat that was advertised to be given to the lady holding the lucky number was not won by a lady, but by a "mere man" in the person of Mr. Fred G. Thomas. But everybody was satisfied for it to be won by him, as he is just as nice as if he were a lady.
FEATHERING ONE'S NEST.
The time to feather ones nest, is when one has something to feather it with.
The rainy day, as we call it, is sure to come.
It may come in the form of sickness, or something else, at any time; and, it will surely come in the form of old age, if one lives long enough.
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.
WHY THE WORD "ADVERTISEMENT."
Under a recent ruling of the United States Postoffice Department, publishers are compelled to "label all editors or other reading matter, other than displayed advertisements, for the publication of which money or other valuable consideration is paid accepted, or promised, with the word ADVERTISEMENT printed in full."
