$108 WARDROBE
This Sum Will Provide for Evening Gowns and Business Frocks, Says Bureau.
TELLS HOW EASY IT ALL IS
Series of Pamphlets issued by Department of Agriculture Calculated to Reduce High Cost of Clothing.
Washington—Uncle Sam, besides occupying himself with strikes, law enforcement and international agreements, has interested himself in woman's clothes.
How to have a wardrobe for $108 that includes dinner and evening gowns, a smart business dress, frocks of volle and tissue, gingham for summer wear and a broadcloth coat for winter winds, is explained in a series of pamphlets issued by the Department of Agriculture, as an aid in reducing the high cost of clothing. One of these pamphlets describes that the business girl with a reasonable amount of zeal and talent, can use part of her spare time to such effect that her clothing bill is cut in half.
First she must send to the Department of Agriculture for the circulars issued by the department. One of these pamphlets explains how to make a dress form by pasting layers of gummed bundle wrapping paper over a tightly fitting vest on herself, as a model. When the paper casing is cut off and fastened together she has a "light, stiff and perfect reproduction of her garment" eliminated the purchase of a store figure.
Employee Used Form.
The girl with the $108 wardrobe, a government employee, used such a form.
She made for $24.61 a coat of tan broadcloth with a good lining, such as she saw priced at $50 in shops. A blue vole dress with a slip, cost, including trimming, $11.00. A tissue gingham dress, with organdie and hem-stitching for trimming, cost $8.33. With scraps and a remnant she made an gingham dress for exactly 45 cents.
For $16 she bought materials to make a pussy willow taffeta and georgette crepe dress for social occasions, which she said, she could not duplicate at a store for less than $35. Her business dress of serge and crepe chine would have been priced at $40 or more if she had purchased a dress of the same quality of material already made. Her evening dress of taffeta and silver lace cost $21, although it was modeled after one seen in a shop priced several times higher.
Attended Many Affairs.
This wardrobe, supplemented by two dresses for which materials were purchased, brought the total up to $15.
"This wardrobe, while not elaborate, enabled me to attend many affairs, which had I not sewed myself, I would have been unable to attend because of lack of a proper gown. Without the dress form I could not have done it in the time at my disposal. I made ten such forms for my friends, too."
PLATYPUS COMING TO AMERICA
Singular Mammal That Lays Eggs, on Way to Philadelphia Zoo From Australia.
Philadelphia.—The zoological gardens in Fairmount park are being prepared for the accommodation of a number of new guests, now on their way here from Australia. The most unusual of the shipment is a platypus, an egg-laying mammal.
The platypus will be the only one of its kind in this country, it is said. This species dies quickly in captivity and is related to the echidna, also an egg-laying mammal. However, the local gardens have exhibited one specimen of the echidna for eighteen years. This shipment is being sent by C. Ellis C. Joseph, Australian zoologist.
MAN. PLOWING. KILLS BEAR
Mississippi Rancher Has Chance Encounter With Vagrant From Canebrakes.
Coldwater, Miss.—A bear weighing 250 pounds was killed by Dock Lee, a farmer, living near Arkabuta in the western part of this county. Mr. Lee was plowing in his field about a mile from town when his dog encountered the bear in a thicket nearby.
Great excitement experienced in the nearby area as it was the first bear ever seen out of the canebrakes, the nearest of which is three miles away.
This bear is supposed to have been in the vicinity of Arkabuta for some time, as his tracks had been discovered on several occasions by citizens of the community.
Hoof Shoes for Moonshiner.
Tampa, Fla.—In order to throw prohibition agents off the trail to moonshine stills, a Florida moonshiner has invented a shoe that leaves an imprint similar to that of the hoof of a cow, A. L. Allen, federal prohibition commissioner for Florida, announced recently. A dog at a pond was found at a still captured near Port Tampa. Allen said, and it will be forwarded to Commissioner Blair at Washington.
LEGEND QUIETS FEAR
Volcanic Activities Fail to Disturb Older Hawaiians.
Remember Ancient Legendary Agreement in Which Pete, Goddess of the Volcano, Promised to Withhold the Lava.
Hilo, Island of Hawaii, T. H.-Recent volcanic activity in the ancient plets of Makopuhi, Hanau and Napau, which have been "dead" since 1840, drained much of the lava that had made Halemauamau, the vast inner crater of the Kilauea volcano, so spectacular, and caused much fear that the lava would flow toward the sea and inundate the little villages of Kalapana, Panau and Puaa.
The older generation of Hawaiians, however, entertained no such fear, for they remembered an ancient legendary agreement that had been made by Pete, goddess of the volcano, with Kama Pua, the Hawaiian pig god, by which Pete promised her lava would never flow through Hilo or Puna to the sea.
Pete and Kama Pua had an argument and Kama Pua went to Haleamaua, Puaa's home, to fight it out. The god and goddess fought until Pete was overcome, and she plowed for peace, according to the legend.
"We shall have peace if you promise never to allow your lava to flow through Puna or Hilo to the sea."
Kama Pua said. Pete assented, and she has never broken the promise, fearing a return of the hated Kama Pua, the legend said.
In 1880, when a lava flow was proceeding toward Hilo and threatened to destroy the city, the Princess Ruth came from Honolulu here, and standing near the flow, reminded Pele of her promise and her danger from Kana Puna if she broke the agreement. The fact that she had not followed accordingly to the older Hawaiians.
On several other occasions Pele has sent her red-hot rivers in the direction of Puna and Hilo, but they have never reached the two places.
The last activity, resulting from an underground flow from Halemauaunu that broke out at Makaopuhi, 11 miles down the great southeast rift that leads from Kilauea, has changed her appearance of Kilauea, Hawaii's greatest scenic attraction, tremendously, according to persons now at the crater, and has changed her favorite wind shifts to approach closer to the pit-rim in what was known as Pele's oven.
Although the pit of Kilauea shows no activity, volcano observers say that "she is not dead, only sleeping."

SEEK GOLD IN OFFICE SMOKE
United States to Filter Clouds From Wall Street Assay Building for Saving.
New York.—Thousands of dollars' worth of gold and silver which now goes up in smoke each year through the stack of the United States assay office in Wall street is going to be saved by the government. A dispatch stated that work has been started on the installation of the Cottrell electrical precipitation equipment. Through this equipment there will be recovered equipment particles of precious metal from the gases arising from smelting and refining operations.
The gases which will be treated will pass up fumes, provided for the purpose, to the precipitation plant. Superintendent Isaac H. Smith, who has been conducting tests, believes that there will be a saving in the recovery of gold and silver of from $$ to $9,000 a year net.
White Squirrel.
Kansas City, Mo.—A white squirrel is a rarity. Last week, in Shannon county, a man saw a white squirrel go into his hole in a big oak tree. The next day he took some incredulous neighbors, determined to capture the squirrel, and chop down four trees before this was accomplished. And, sure enough, the squirrel was all white with pink eyes. It now lives in a cage in Birch Tree.

will be this year.
In point of entries and in quality
of exhibits, this year's fair will function
as an interational exhibition. More
than 800 bites of exhibits, valued at
more than $2,500,000, will be presented
by the larger and
best educational
fair ever staged in the Northwest.

No other fair or
staged in America this
year is offering as
much money for
prises and pre-

nesota State Fair will pay to winners in the many exhibits and contests on the program. One hundred and twenty-eight thousand, four hundred and forty-nine dollars in prizes is offered by the fair management—about $7,000 more than was offered in 1921, when winners in many contests divided $121.700.
A livestock show that will not be excellen anywhere in the country will feature the new livestock fair. The fair has offered $59,905 in premiums for livestock exhibits. The remarkable interest that has been shown in the cattle show this year presages the finest collection of animals that has ever graced a show at the fair. So many entries have been received by the management that the new mammoth cattle barn erected recently at a cost of $400—and which was thought big enough to take care of the needs of the cattle department for years to come—will prove inadequate to house all of the animals which will be exhibited.
Especially interesting will be the exhibit of dairy cattle. No other industry has enjoyed such wonderful growth in recent years as has dairy. The stocking of farms with purebred dairy cattle has produced a rate that scrub animals are, becoming fewer and fewer on farms
years as has dainy. The stocking of farms with purebred dairy cattle has proceeded at so rapid a rate that scrub animals are, becoming fewer and fewer on farms throughout the Northwest. That prosopus in the Northwest. That dairy cow was proved to farmers and breeders many times the past two years, when the Northwest remained one of the most prosperous agricultural sections in the entire country.
Both the swine and the sheep shows will be larger than ever. Nearly 1,000 head of swine will be exhibited for the $7,110.00 in premiums offered. For the sheep contests, the fair is offering $4,470.
The agricultural building, with its inspiring exhibits of grains, grasses and vegetables of all descriptions, will be a veritable paradise to visitors interested in farm crops. Counties of will vie with each other in their arrangement of attractive displays from our 1922 "Billion Dollar Harvest." Nearly $20,000.00 in cash prizes will be paid out for winning exhibits.
The thousands of plants and flowers, and heaping displays of fruits and vegetables, will convert the horticultural building into a veritable fairyland. Luscious plums, rosy-cheeked apples, shapely pears and peaches, and delicious strawberries and grapes, will peep out at visitors from long rows of exhibits. Beautiful flowers and shrubs, rich in color and design, will draw out numerous "Ahs" and "Ohs" from passers by.
The greatest barnyard chorus of the year will be heard in the poultry show, where more than 2,000 birds will be shown. The price of breeding birds will be given premiums of $2,967.00.

Women's exhibits will provide the interest in home-making is as great today as fifty years ago, still making it the greatest occupation in the world. Delicious breads and cakes, ples and cookies, canned foods and other homemade products, will be on tempting display. Home needle work of every kind, from fancy work and laces to the most practical sewing and dressmaking, will be a feast for women's souls. Boys and girls, too, will have exhibits. To them, the fair is to be an "Achievement Week." It will give them a chance to show their parents and friends who have learned in and what they have getting out of their enrollment in Boy's and Girls Club Work. There will be demonstrations of the all kinds by boys and girls, showing how expert they have become in bread making, in sewing, canning, and in the judging of live stock.
Record Cattle Show at State Fair.
The biggest cattle show ever staged in the middle west will feature the Minnesota State Fair, Twin Cities, September 2 to 9. More than 1,000 cattle are on display in the main floor of the $500,000 Cattle Barn. Premiums amounting to $2,472,320 have been cut up by the State Fair.
SEES FORGOTTEN TRIBE
American Bird Specialist Invades Jungles of Nicaragua.
Gets Large Collection of Rare Birds,
Beasts, Fish and Reptiles—Penetrates to Villages of Sumo
Indians.
Philadelphia—Wharton Huber, assistant curator of the ornithology section of the Academy of Natural Sciences, returned recently to this city from hitherto little known regions of Nicaragua, where he assembled a large collection of birds, beasts, fish and reptiles, a number of which he believes have not yet been classified.
He also claims to have penetrated to the villages of Sumo Indians, who rarely had seen a white man. The scientist's specimens include 600 birds, 40 rare mammals and 2,000 fish, reptiles and insects, all or which will be placed on exhibition in the local institution.
"My research work was done about 180 miles inland from the Nicaraguan coast," said Mr. Huber. "We established our headquarters at a small mining camp, whence we made trips farther into the country. The average annual rainfall here is 147 inches. From the time I reached the interior until I left there never was a dry article of clothing on me. The country is infected with red bugs, smaller than fleas, which burrow under the skin and inflict serious wounds.
"I went up the Prinza Polka river for 180 miles in a pitpan, an open bait made of a hollowed-out maritime bog. There in a smaller pitpan I found a large number of baited mammals. The district is hilly and covered with tropical forests so dense that it is impossible to enter them until a way is cut by Indians.
"The only inhabitants are a few scattered tribes of Indians apparently of Spanish and 'Miskito Indian' descent. With a body of these Indians as guides, I penetrated to certain villages of the Sumo Inns.
"The Sumo men are very skillful hunters, but the tribe is rapidly becoming extinct. With all their ability to capture and care of eating wild animals, they are constantly timid of strange human beings and will run away even from members of other Indian tribes. Miskito Indian sometimes walk into their villages and take anything they want without meeting resistance. The Sumos, numbering about 500 souls all told, have the stant, almond eyes of the Chinese, and their skin is about the same color as that of a Chinaman."
Mr. Huber had with him a number of dogs, two of which were killed by a coyote, a coyote believes that fully 40 per cent of his mates he shot were lost, because neither dogs nor Indians could make their way into the jungles to the point where they fell. He used dynamite to secure his fish specimens.
QUEEN MOTHER DEFIES TIME
Alexandra of Britain Active in Spite of Her 77 Years—Puts in Busy Day.
London, England.—Queen Alexandra, the queen mother, now in her seventy-eighth year, is far more active than most women of her age. She might take life far more easily than she does, but she evidently is opposed to the idea of being laid on the shelf. She likes to show herself among the people, and she is satisfied the applause with which her appearance always is greeted. Undoubtedly it acts as a sort of psychological tonic upon her and helps her to feel as young as she looks.
She crowds many activities in a day. One day recently she appeared in public at the carthorse parade for prizes in Regent's park, then at a concert in aid of workshops for disabled soldiers and, finally, at the Richmond horse show.
She makes, however, two concessions to advancing years. She seldom goes out of an evening, and she goes to bed early, usually playing a game of "Patience" before retiring.
Cobbler Finds $100 in a Shoe.
Waras, Ind.—Thomas Ross, Wilinona Lake, placed $100 in bills and several checks inside one of his shoes for safekeeping. Then he went to Florida and forgot all about the bills and checks.
While repairing a pair of shoes for Ross, a Waras cobbler discovered the greenbacks and checks and turned them over to the owner.
Camping Party Uses
Hearse for Bedroom
Frank Remlinger of Green Bay, WIs., and four friends, on a camping jauce, use a hearse instead of the usual type of motor caravan. Only a few changes were necessary. Part of the glass side was replaced by board panels and a flooring was put in, dividing it into decks. Two of the party sleep "upstairs," and all supplies are carried below. Three of the party sleep "downstairs." Number tires insure easy riding. No ghosts have been encountered so far, even when they camp next to a cemetery, and no matter how it storms, the hearse is snug.

Correspondents Find Quiet Sort of Men Make "Mountain Dew With Kick."
SUSPICIOUS OF STRANGERS
Continually on the Alert for Deputy Sheriffs, Revenue Agents and Prohibition Officers—Read World Magazines.
Catlettsburg, Ky.—Typical mountain moonshiners of Kentucky are not always of the gun-toting and trouble-making kind, it is proven to news correspondents by visits into the mountain region in this area of the state. The mountaineer type of moonshiner, however, is continually on the alert for deputy sheriffs, prohibition officers and revenue agents.
After a trip of thirty or forty miles into the mountains the correspondent was escorted to a moonshiner's log shack, made from the rough timber of the hillside and carefully arranged on a foundation of stone.
"Billed" greeted his visitors with a keen eye, a bit of suspicion, but with a friendly note in his shout of "welcome stranger." Proper inquiries whether any squirrels inhabited an adjacent mountain side, where a newly beaten path had been noticed, brought the answer that squirrels were scarce and none were found in the woods.
Mountain Dew Kicks
When a friendly spirit developed some "mountain dew," or, in the language of the cities, "white mule," was produced from a small hand-made cupboard within the single room of the cabin, over which hung a religious picture and other articles of a religious nature. On the opposite side of the room over the bed of the mountaineer was a rife of heavy caliber, an automatic pistol and a small-caliber revolver. The contrast was unique. A small drink of the "mountain dew" almost brought slumberland a la Dempsey. Inquiries to the age of the liquor brought the answer, "The's too hot." Hostility of typical southern quality will be found among the mountaineer residents if you are a "friend": if an enemy—beware, or, as "Bill" explained it, "snakes in the mountain are killed." "Bill" makes his farm a payable proposition for his wife and children, who were attending church at the time of the correspondent's visit, by occasionally cutting some timber.
Reads Magazines of World.
His interest in world affairs is not limited and weekly trips to the near-postoffice furnishes him with newspapers from the "outside." These are read by one member of the family, by lamp and candle light, to the others and often last throughout the week.
The moonshiner's home from the outside has an uninviting appearance, but once within the home, while the walls are painted, the impression of cleanliness is produced. The low ceiling forces a man of ordinary height to stoop. The board floor may break. it is both solid and high and dry. In winter cold winds are shut out by the mud-plaster between the cracks of logs and by the board and paper lining of the inner walls. Heat is furnished by an oil burner and cooking is done on a coal range.
Oxen teams haul coal to the home during the fall months. A yoke of one horse pulls the narrow mountain road explains the manner which enabled the mountaineer to obtain all the sizable logs used in constructing his home.
YOUNG JAPAN TAKES TO JAZZ
Less Modernized Nipponese, However, Frown on Western Dancing.
Tokyo, Japan.—The question whether western dances are immoral is the subject of a lively debate in the Japanese newspapers at present. In the last few_years western dancing has grown popular among Japanese women, especially the who have lived abroad, although it is by no means general as yet. They dance very gracefully in their native costumes and heelless slippers, but the older and less modernized Japanese frown on the growing custom.
Goat Locked Eight Days in Car Without Water
Poplar Bluff, Mo.-And now comes the "harmless" billy goat displaying some of his unique qualifications.
When a carload of lime was loaded at Cape Girardeau, Mr. Goat, unnoticed, made his way into the car and was locked therein. Eight days after, when the seals of the car were broken at the destination, Donphan, Mo., and when the door was opened, out jumped Mr. Goat, spry, but apparently thirsty.
He was quickly treated to a drink of "Mountain Dew," which bubbles from a spring near Donphan, and was happy. He seemed none the worse for his "Volsted fest."

TEST EINSTEIN THEORY
Photograph Stars in Investigation of Light Rays.
Expeditions Will Go to Australia to Make Astronomical Observations When Sun Goes Into Total Eclipse.
Papeeet, Tahiti—Preliminary observations were made here in April and May by Dr. Robert Trumpler, assistant director of the Lick observatory on Mount Hamilton, California, in preparation for final astronomical observations in northern Australia to prove or disprove the part of Einstein's theory of relativity which has to do with the composition and characteristics of light.
Various astronomical expeditions will gather on the northern coast of Australia September 21 to take their observations and the sun goes into total eclipse that the doctor Trumpler's work here has been graph, on a large scale, the stars in that part of the heavens where the sun will be on September 21. On the day of the eclipse, when the sun is totally obscured and the stars are visible, similar photographs will be taken on the same scale.
Einstein's contention is that light is not, as scientists hitherto have held, the very rapid vibrations of the all-pervading ether, but is made up of electrons and therefore is a form of matter. If light is matter in any case, it be subject to the law of gravitation, and this is to establish or disprove this point that the observations are being made here and in Australia.
If Einstein's theory of light is well founded, according to Doctor Trumpler, the rays of light from a star in that quarter of the heavens passing by so large a mass as the sun will be deflected by the force of the sun's gravity, the star in question will appear on a surface of the sun at a place slightly removed from its true position in a direction away from the sun's disk.

Every Central European State Mutual Passing American $10 at Frontier.
Belgrade, Jugo-Slavia. — Collecting $10 gold from American travelers every time a passport is vised continues to be the official app for popular occurrences of the states of central Europe. Any American who wishes to visit one of the countries must pass the frontiers of several of the others and at each frontier the charge is $10 a head and $10 every time he passes. One American business man within the past three months has paid $120. "But don't blame us, blame your State department, a representative of the Jugo-Slavia foreign "It is a matter of reciprocity with us; we charge the same fee as does the United States."

Tokyo, Japan.—The clerks of Japan, who heretofore have had few if any holidays during the year, are hoping much from the inauguration of a weekly rest day by a large department store of Custae.
The Tokyo chamber of commerce and other bodies have taken the matter up with a view to the adoption of a similar system here where there are a number of large department stores conducted on American lines.
Heretofore the stores have opened open seven days a week the year around, and the employees have had a few days at New Year's and during the feast of the head in summer.

U. S. UNIVERSITY IN CENTRAL EUROPE
Suggested by Dr. Stepanek as Promoting World Peace.
SPREAD AMERICAN CULTURE
World Union of Engineers Also Advocated in Line with Marconi's suggestion of Promoting Peace Through Science.
Washington.—Establishment in central Europe of a great American university and library is urged by Dr. B. Stepanek, minister to the United States from Czechoslovakia, who, to advance international peace, calls upon the engineers of this and other countries for united participation in world affairs. Doctor Stepanek makes an appeal for the formation of a world federation of engineers, and for an international engineering conference to deal constructively with the problems of civilization.
Doctor Stepanek's views, made public by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, which, through its official journal, stresses the need of engineering solidarity among the leading nations, are regarded by engineers as a significant diplomatic utterance supporting the efforts now being made in America, Great Britain, France and Italy to bring about closer relations among engineers.
Closer Relations Among Engineers.
Award of the John Fritz medal to Senator Guglielmo Marconi has aroused fresh interest in the idea of a world union of engineers. Marconi's expressed hope of promoting peace through education includes it with action to devise a working plan of international co-operation between the engineers of America and Italy.
John W. Lieb, vice president of the New York Edison company, has reported, after a trip to Italy, that Italian engineers are ready to form such an alliance. Herbert Hoover, Prof. Comfort A. Adams of Harvard university, Eugene Schneider of Paris and Sir Robert A. Haddfield of London are others who favored advancement of world peace through the united action of men of science. Actively backing the project also are the presidents of the American Society of Civil Engineers, American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers, American Institute of Electrical Engineers and the Federated American Engineering Societies. Alfred D. Flinn, secretary of the engineering foundation and chairman of the engineering division of the National Research Council, indorses Doctor Stepanek's suggestions "that at an early date there should be an international conference of engineers, rather than of politicians and statesmen, bound by tradition and self-seeking nationalism—a conference of constructively minded men who could take fresh views of the world's condition, deal scientifically with fundamental causes and suggest impartial, far-sighted plans for continuing progress. Mr. Flinn advocated a joint convention of the great national engineering societies in Europe in the summer of 1923 to meet the engineers of all the countries of Europe for discussion of such of the world problems as may be the most vulnerable to engineering attack.
In appealing for the establishment of an American university in central Europe, Minister Stepanek said that it would constitute a center from which could be given out the best products of American culture, a source of correct information about America and American ideas. Through a world alliance of engineers, the minister thought, a constructive type of mind could be brought more effectively into the service of the nations.
Professor Adams predicted that artificial distinctions between nations would remove the barrier of engineering science. Removal of the barrier of distance, he said, is bringing them so close together, and making them so interdependent, that intelligent co-operation will make war impossible. Racial and national antagonism, Professor Adams asserted, will give way to the progress of engineering science.
NOT SO MANY DEAF AND DUMB
United States Census Count Shows That the Rate per 1,000,000 Population Has Decreased.
Washington. — Although the 44,488 deaf and dumb persons enumerated in the 1920 census was a slight increase above the 1910 figure, the rate per million of population decreased from 488 to 421, the census bureau reported. This decline, which also known as European countries, was attributed to advanced treatment for certain children's diseases which frequently cause deafness.
Rat Attacks Sleeping Baby. Kansas City, Mo. — The screams of her six-months-old daughter, Alice, aroused Mrs. William T. Elledge shortly after one o'clock in the morning. Rushing to the child's bed, she found a large gray rat clinging to the baby's right ear. She woke the rat loose. With the child's arms, Mr. and Mrs. Elledge ran to a hospital. Emergency treatment was administered.

PULLMAN COURTESY.
A remarkable unity in the conception of the principles of courtesy on the part of Pullman porters and conductors has been evidenced by the announcement of the results of a contest conducted by the Pullman News, the company's publication.
Several hundred sent their definitions to the magazine. The employees of the company, admonished to be "courteous" at all times, showed in their answers that they know exactly what that quality is. Porter Thomas J. Pickett of St. Louis won the first prize with this definition:
"Courtesy consists of giving those we meet such considerate attention that their every want will be satisfied and they will realize the attention is due to real interest in their comfort."
Conductor W. F. Lawlor of Denver won second prize.
"Courtesy," he said, "is the spirit and essence of service—kindness and good will. The cheery word, the friendly smile, the helping hand—these are its handmaidens.
"It is born of a gentle mind and fostered by tact."
The third prize winner was in the form of a motto, sent by Porter W. T. Hill of Cincinnati. It said:
"Do all the good you can, to all the people you can, whenever you can and as promptly and politely as you can."

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.
which it would be well for white men to take notice of and follow.
"At Westfield, N. J., a colored golf club has been established and a nine-hole course laid out. A colored colony there seems to warrant the golf course. The item that this course is laid out will cause a million giggles to sizzle across the country. Cartoonists will make funny pictures of it. Vaudeville artists will do sketches about it. Something exquisitely funny seems to excite the white race when it sees the colored race doing things which are ordinary part of the day's work and play to the white people. It is as though the elephant should drive an auto or a horse play the piano.
"The reason for the risibility of the white man at the black man's human activities is obvious, and it is no credit to the white man. He thinks it is funny to see the black man doing things that normal human beings do, because the white man does not think of his dark-skinned fellow-traveler on the planet as a human companion. The white man considers any colored man—black, brown, red, yellow or maroon—as an animal. The anthropological conceit of the white man in ponderous, unbelievable, vastly amusing to the gods.
"Why should not the black man play golf if his economic status gives him leisure for golf? Why should he not have a motor car and a country house if he can afford it? Why giggle at the normal activities of men whose skin differs from your own? Something of the same psychological reason is being the fact that we middle-class people make merry over the fact that the worker in the mines or shops or furnaces wears a silk shirt of rents a house with a bath or rides to work in a car. Why shouldn't he? Is he an elephant doing stunts? Is he a horse playing the piano? What's the joke if he develops the same desires and aspirations that we do? And who in God's name are we, anyway?
IS JUSTICE BLIND?
Max Greineder, an alien, has been punished at Chicago for bringing a 17-year-old girl from her home in Vienna by being sentenced to one day in the custody of the United States marshal.
Jack Johnson, black pugilist, was sentenced to one year in the penitentiary and fined $10,000 for transporting an adult woman from Indianapolis to Chicago, although it was clearly shown at the trial that the woman _was not transported for a commercial purpose.
That is a sample of American justice.
GARVEY THE JIMCROIST
Recently in New Orleans, Marcus Garvey, who is not a citizen of the United States, according to the associated press, said: "his is a white man's country. He found it, conquered it, and we can't blame him if he wants to keep it. I am not vexed with the white man of the South for jimcrowing me because I am black. "I never built any street cars or railroads. The white man built them for his own convenience. And if I don't want to ride where he's willing to let me ride I'd better walk." That is a servile, foolish and dangerous statement, but it sounds very much like some of the Booker-Moton talk which we have heard in recent years.

To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest.

Now that plans are being made to evacuate Santo Domingo, the United States ought to get out of Haiti, too. The United States has no right in Haiti. The United States overthrew the government of Haiti by force of arms without rhyme or reason. The United States imposed a constitution written by Franklin Roosevelt, on Haiti which had been free and self-governing for more than a century and a quarter.
Now is the time to get out.
Many of the Illinois political clubs are demanding that the state act in punishing the strikers in Herrin county who murdered about thirty people. They were silent when mobs killed hundreds in East St. Louis and Chicago. Why? In Herrin, the people killed were all white; in Chicago and St. Louis the victims were principally colored.
What has come over ex-President Wilson? Former President Wilson, "as an American citizen and as a native of Virginia," has written Commonwealth Attorney Thomas H. Lyon, Manassas, Va., thanking him for the part he took recently in saving Alvin Harris, a colored man, from the mob.
American Mobs and Others
The folly of letting the general public purchase deadly weapons is a folly that is almost incredible. We recoil with horror from the stories of atrocity during the war. But America is the only country on earth where in times of peace men are burned at the stake, and shot while hanging to tell the story of bullets from automatics held by men's mere boys who are allowed by the states in which they live to purchase and carry these murderous weapons.
We boast of our superior education and culture over the "heathen" in far-off places of the earth. We boast of the free institutions of America, and we sneaker the Bolshevist and laugh at the Soviet, but the horrors of the American mob are not equalled by any atrocity we have ever read of the Bolshevists. They at least kill their enemies or those that they believe to be enemies. But the American mob, armed with the automatic it has bought at any hardware store in most of these United States, rushes out, and without asking for facts or trying to discover the guilty, murders innocent and guilty, with cheerful and indiscriminate partiality.
Surely we are a wonderful people. We have a 'wonderful distinction among the nations of the earth!' It is the distinction, which some time will brand us with infallible shame, of being the only nation that arms mobs to burn innocent people at the stake and shoot up the homes of innocent men with weapons made and sold without protection nearly every state in the union. What we must to boast over the Bolshevist or the bomb thrower? -Christian Herald.
Anti-Lynch Law Needed
The fifth amendment to the constitution declares that "no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law." These words should assure to every citizen or resident of America due process of law, regardless of the source or direction whence the fundamental right is threatened. Congress must possess the power to enact any appropriate legislation designed to prevent and punish wilful violation of this right. Since it is notorious that the states have not been able to enforce effectively their anti-lynching laws, and since American citizens have been and are being deprived of life by mobs, there is no alternative save federal legislation to carry out the constitutional mandate.—Chicago News.

For 42 Years Editor of the American Baptist, Celebrates His 75th Anniversary
The 75th anniversary of the birthday of Mr. William H. Steward, editor of the American Baptist for 42 years, fell on July 26th and the good people of the city made this the occasion of a big banquet in his honor at the Empire Hotel to congratulate him on his long life of usefulness in their midst.
Having been born in the "Falls City" over 74 years ago and having lived there for nearly 40 years we are acquainted with many of the participants on this auspicious occasion and it brings to mind the days of "Auld lang sine."
We recall that Mr. Steward received some of his early education in our father's, Rev. Henry Adams school, before the days of public schools.
We are well acquainted with the first speaker, Mr. Samuel W. Jordan who went to school to us, and also with Dr. John H. Frank, pastor of Fifth Street Baptist church, founded and pastored by our father, and which has had but two other pastors in all these years, Rev. Andrew Teale and the present pastor. We are also affiliated with the only lady speaker on the program, Mrs. L. B. Sneed and Prof. S. Coiller, Prof. A. E. Mayeek, Prof. Willie Perry, Dr. C. H. Parrish, Mr. Chas B. Preston, Mr. Thos F. Blue and Mr. Alex Morris. We also recall Misses Jennie Burks and Mary Baker, Mr. Rebecca Quigley Smith, Dr. Felix S. Fowler, Dr. Chas. F. Snead and Miss Alice Crutcher.
And no one better deserved the toast of Mr. Morris, and the silver loving cup presented by Mr. Blue and the purse of $54.00 presented by Fifth Street Baptist school of which he had been superintendent for 35 years than Mr. W. H. Steward.
Surely here was a prophet that had honor among his own people and we extend our congratulations and hope he may live many more years.

MAN SHOOTS SHOPMEN
Slayer Tells Officials He's Deputy U. S. Marshal
Newark, Ohio, Aug. 5—Police today were endeavoring to learn if there is any truth in the statement of Moses Slocum, colored, St. Louis, employed at the Baltimore & Ohio shops here, who Friday night shot and killed one striking shopman and wounded another, that he is a United States deputy marshal. He was unable to produce credentials. John Kolman, 35 years old, the dead striking shopman, was shot through the heart, and his companion, Pasquale Susi, 34 years old, was hit in the hip. Susi also suffered a broken knee when he fell down an embankment, after the shootings which occurred near the Baltimore & Ohio station.
Slocum told police the two men accosted him as he was on his way to the shops. When they started toward him with drawn pistols, he said, he opened fire. Police said they did not believe either of the men were armed.
Brought Here a Slave; Dies, Aged 119
Troy, Ala, August 4—Jim Chapman, said to be 119 years of age, died at his home near Spring Hill, south of Troy, recently. "Uncle Jim" as he was familiar known in this section, had a very interesting history. He was reared as a slave, being brought to this country from Africa and sled on the block at Pensacola. He had never worn a pair of shoes nor smoked tobacco in his life. It was his breast that he had never broken a law or been arrested.
Colored Man Trapped and Slain
Cherokee, Iowa, Aug. 4.—Trapped in a cornfield, an outlaw colored man, who shot three men in the last forty-eight hours here, battled for life against 800 armed men, wounded one, and was killed by bullets from their gunmen. Tuesday night the colored man shot two guard at the Illinois Central railroad yards here, fatally wounding one, and fled.

Churches and Advertising
AN unusual development in modern religious activity among the churches of all denominations is the recognition-of the value of religious advertising in the press. At the national convention of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World at Milwaukee a unique adjunct of that organization was a department devoted to the church and religious facts. Articles, illustrations, and statements were presented which indicated that the modern preacher is keenly alive to the importance of the daily newspaper as an aid to "the spread of the gospel."

ADVERTISING is the modern conception of scoring the highways and hedges to fill the church. It is the connecting link between the church and the man without. The militant church, with the use of modern methods of getting men and women within its portals by the aid of the press, is the successful church.
The newspaper is read in the homes of multitudes who never cross the threshold of a church. To reach these, the minister must make his appeal through the press.
THE Rev. Norman B. Barr, pastor of the Clivet Institute church, Presbyterian, in sending in advertisement to a Chicago newspaper, had this to say:
"Out of appreciation of your policy of promoting church going by printing 'Go to Church' articles in connection with church advertisements, I think every church in Chicago should give you an ecclesiastical paid advertisement. I am in closing one from my church. In my judgment, nothing will change the Chicago we have into the Chicago most of us want to be having going. And nothing will help more than such articles as you are printing in your 'Go to Church columns to induce citizens of Chicago to become for their own, their children's and their city's sake — regular church-going people."

"Yes, sir," was Jackson's only comment. The little girl was lured from her home by Jackson July 27, on his promise to buy her candy. Her body was found on the Mississippi river bank two days later.

For the first time in the history of the Minnesota State Fair, advance sale coupon tickets at reduced rates are to be offered for this year's fair, September 2 to 9. Each ticket will contain six admission coupons and will sell for $3.00, or at the rate of 50 cents an admission. The tickets will be transferable, and may be used by any adult or party of adults, for admission at the outside gate, or to the unreserved sections of the grandstand or horse show.
All of the banks in the state will be given an opportunity to handle these tickets. The sale will close August 19. A purchaser of a ticket will save $1.50 on the six admissions, since the regular charge of 75 cents, which has been made by the fair the past two years will be made again this year. Without this ticket, six admissions to the fair at fair time will cost $4.50. The biggest purchasers of coupon tickets will be families and groups intending to visit the fair as a party.
Until August 19, advance sale coupon tickets may be purchased of W. H. Honebrink, treasurer, First National Bank, St. Paul, in case a local banker has none for sale.
The advance sale plan put into operation by the fair has been used successfully by the Canadian National Exhibition at Toronto, Canada, for years. The Minnesota State Fair is a leader in introducing the plan in the United States. Fair official's believe it will stimulate an early interest in the fair and help to increase total attendance at the big exposition.
Another important change in admission rules has been adopted this year in permitting children to visit the fair free on the opening Saturday, as well as Labor Day, when accompanied by an adult member of their family. Children will also be admitted free to the fair each evening after 6 o'clock under the same condition.
Automobiles will also be admitted free to the grounds each evening after 6 o'clock, except on Labor Day.
