A PAGE FOR LADIES OF FASHION The Lady Friends of the Tulsa Star The KITCHEN CABINET few shredded almonds; cover a box of gelatin with a half pint of cold water and let soak for half an hour. Add to it a cupful of sugar and a quart of boiling water; stir until dissolved; add juice of two lemons and one orange and two teaspoons of caramel Strain into a mold over the fruit and set away to harden. Serve with whipped cream garnished with candied pineapple. The oyster plant is now in season and makes a most delicious soup. Cut The roots are so discoloring to the hands that the fingers should be well wrapped while preparing. Rubber gloves are best, but a cloth wrapped around the fingers exposed will do very well. Clear Tomato Soup.—Add a pint of water to a quart of stewed tomatoes. Add a slice of onion, a half a bay leaf, a dash of celery salt and a few celery tops, a teaspoonful of salt, a chopped green pepper. Cook together for 15 minutes, put through a sieve, add two tablespoonfuls each of flour and butter rubbed together, or cornstarch will make a clearer soup. Cook until the starch is well cooked. Serve with squares of toasted bread. Cream of Potato Soup.—This is a soup that should be better known, is an economical and wholly satisfying one. Pare three medium-sized potatoes; cover them with boiling water; boil five minutes, drain and throw away the water. Cover with a pint of boiling water; add a slice of onion, a bit of celery and a bay leaf. Cover and cook slowly until the potatoes are tender. Put through a sieve, add a quart of milk, two teaspoonfuls each of butter and flour, rubbed together; salt and pepper to season. Reheat and serve piping hot.

Moisten with a rich mayon- A most attractive cabbage salad is made as follows: Mix together finely shredded cabbage and green peppers and olives. Chop the olives and remove the seeds and tough white portion from the peppers. Moisten with a rich mayonnaise dressing and fill lemon cups with the mixture. Place each on a small plate, covered with a dolly. A most delicious salad and one easy to prepare is crisp fresh lettuce dressed with a French dressing to which has been added a teaspoonful of tomato catchup, a tablespoonful of chopped green pepper, a teaspoonful of minced parsley and a tablespoonful of chopped onion. Shake or beat well with a Dover eggbeater, and serve very cold. The dressing is best passed as the oil and vinegar wilts the lettuce very soon. ```markdown ``` Mock Crab Sandwiches.—Take a quarter of a cupful of grated cheese, a pinch of mustard and pepper, a quarter of a teaspoonful of salt, a teaspoonful of anchovy paste, a tablespoonful of chopped olives, a teaspoonful of lemon juice and two tablespoonfuls of creamed butter. Spread on buttered bread after blending well. Fig Paste for Sandwiches. — Cut three-quarters of a pound of figs into small pieces, add the same amount of brown sugar, a quarter of a pound of seeded ralsins, a cupful of water and the juice of half a lemon. Stew on the back of the stove until very soft, remove and add a tablespoonful of vanilla. Put all through the meat grinder and to clean the grinder finish with three or four crackers which may be added to the paste. This will keep if packed in jars indefinitely and is delicious as a sandwich filling for any kind of bread or crackers. Used with two kinds of bread, the slices pressed together and then cut like cake makes a most attractive sandwich. Cocoanut Sandwiches.—Take a cupful of freshly grated coconut, a half cupful of chopped almonds, a teaspoonful of lemon juice, two teaspoonfuls of powdered sugar and three tablespoonfuls of thick cream. Spread this on wafers or buttered bread. There is never a thing remembered so As the word with kindness fraught; And never a sky with as bright a glow As you make with a loving thought. A REVIEW OF SOME HOMELY DISHES. We often forget the old and satisfy dishes of which we used to be so fond in the multiplicity of newer dishes appearing every day. It is well to look over the recipes that have been marked by much using and see if we cannot sur prise our families with an old favorite. COFFEE Apple Dowdy.—Line a baking dish with slices of brown bread, buttered; fill the spaces with apples which have been pared, cored and chopped; mix a teaspoonful of cinnamon with a half cupful of brown sugar, sprinkled over the apples; add a half cupful of water, lay on another layer of bread buttered side up. Bake slowly for one hour and serve with clear sauce. Use a cupful of cider thickened with two tablespoonfuls each of flour and butter, cooked together. Prune Souffle.—Remove the stones from half a pound of stewed prunes; press the prunes through a sieve; add to them the yolks of three eggs, slightly beaten, and four tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar. Fold in the well-beaten whites of six eggs; turn into a baking dish; dust the top with powdered sugar, bake in a quick oven for 15 minutes or until the egg is set. Send immediately to the table and serve with cream and sugar. Favorite Dessert (Mrs. Rorer's).—Mix orange pulp, white grapes, cut in halves with seeds removed, candied cherries, chopped and grated pineapple with powdered sugar. Fill sheerb cups with two tablespoonfuls of this; add a tablespoonful of lemon ice and four tablespoonfuls of whipped cream. Serve at once. Fruit Gelatin.-Stone and chop a quarter of a pound of dates; mix with the same amount of flgs; a sliced banana, the pulp of an orange and a R LADIES OF FA A Department Devoted to the Personal Interests of Ju Late N Friends of the Tulsa NEW SHADE OF BLUE POPULAR SPRING COLOR IS RE MARKABLY PRETTY. Probably Seen at Its Best in the Taffetas—Illustration Shows One of the Most Effective of the Recent Gowns. The newest and smartest shade of blue is designated "bleu soldat" or soldier blue, and really is remarkably pleasing. It rather borders on a violet tone, but is not so dark and probably resembles the blue of gentians as nearly as any other known shade. This is a modish spring color and is particularly good in taffetas, of which the illustrated dress is fashioned. It will be necessary to have a white China silk waist lining, sleeveless, of course, and just serving as a foundation to which the skirt and little shirred neck yoke may be attached. The shirred yoke is merely added A above the round decouletage of the lining and shows inside the wide V of over-blouse. The top of the skirt is evenly gathered all round, and an added section above is shirred and corded in three or four more rows. The lower part of the skirt is trimmed with two bands of self material, the first a trifle narrower than the second, and both slightly frilled under a finishing cord. The lower edge of these bands is cut in little square tabs to correspond with the lower edge of the blouse. In front the short unconfined edge of the blouse runs up at the center. The sides and back are held in a little, about four inches above the waist under a cording. The long sleeves show three encircling bands of self material all slashed to form square tabs. Over either hip and below the center of the V neck a bit of dull silver embroidery is introduced, taking the form of long, narrow points that are extremely attractive as a trimming. ALL HAVE MILITARY EFFECT Cut and Trimming of New Blouses Are Alike In This Respect in the Season's Styles. The military effect of trigness and trimness is carried out not only on the cut of the new blouses, but also in their trimmings. Edges are bound with narrow braid, buttons are used in close ranks and bows and all sorts of silk loops and ornaments simulate military frogs. A stunning blouse of coffee-colored golden-rod satin—the supple, soft satin so liked for blouse wear—has a buttoned-up collar in choker style and link cuffs fastened with white pearl buttons. Four "frogs" of white silk cord, with loops caught over immense ball buttons covered with the coffee satin, appear to fasten the blouse fronts, but underneath are hidden snap fasteners, a safer and saner closing than the widely separated frogs. A blouse of dutch blue georgette crepe is trimmed with black edge binding braid and small eagle brass buttons in true military style. One of the most striking new imported blouses, fresh from Paris, is a charming model of sheerest white volle, embroidered with big yellow-centered daisies, and a smart black tie. Pintucking and hemsitching and small motifs of hand embroidery add their quota of prettiness to the new spring blouses, which are so soft in material and so delectable in color.

MEATLESS SOUPS the salisfy into thin slices after scraping well. Cover with a quart of water, to 12 good-sized roots. Cook gently for an hour until the plant is tender; add a quart of milk, two tablespoonfuls of butter and salt and pepper. Serve with oyster crackers. Who hopes the best goes forth with forehead bare.

FRUITS FOR CHILDREN'S PARTIES As fruit is one of the safe things to give children in right quantities and good condition, they lend them selves to many delightful variations. If one wishes to serve a jelly for a child's party it may be molded in an orange cup or a good condition, they lend themselves to many delightful variations. If one wishes to serve a jelly for a child's party it may be molded in an orange cup or a pretty red apple, the cover kept on so that the contents will be a surprise. Children from four to forty, and even older, enjoy an element of mystery about things and a surprise is a most delightful way of entertaining little people. A tiny doll dressed in fuzzy robes may be hidden in a rosy apple as a favor or as a gift. A banana with a half dozen little "nigger" dolls or chocolate babies embedded in the banana and the skin put back is another delight that the children will rejoice over. Cut off a slice of the banana to make the surface level and give the doll room to lie in a nice row in their dainty bed. A stick of good candy wrapped in oiled paper or fringed paper candy stick may be slipped into an empty banana skin. A pretty ball may be concealed in an orange that has been carefully hollowed out and the quarters or halves put back closely. An orange may hold almost anything from choice candy with candy hearts and mottoes to a cosy nest for another tiny doll. A jack-in-the-box is great fun to make, using fruit to hold the jack. For boys, whistles and marbles, tops and different toys can be used. Penny toys with a bit of something to eat (for little people think of a party as only begun when the food is served) may be easily furnished by any mother at small expense. THE TULSA STAR Julia Bottomley's Latest Ideas on International Fashions NEW IDEA IN DECORATION People Have Learned the Value of Black and White as Means of Securing Color Effect. Black and white have taken the world of interior decorations by storm. And the combination isn't only a fad; it promises to last, now that we have discovered how much character to articles and rooms can be given by this color effect. Even the bedroom has not been spared—or it has been honored, whichever way you look at it—with the attention of black and white, and we find black rugs on white floors, and white beds on furniture and woodwork, and sometimes black curtains, and now there have been introduced the most charming lingerie sets for the bed, dressing-table, dresser and chiffonier, the set sometimes including from one to half a dozen boudouir pillows. That part of the lingerie used for the bed includes a spread, bolster slip and pillows or shams. If a bolster roll is used, then only the bolster throw is needed, doing away with the necessity of the bolster slips and shams. The black-and-white lingerie bedroom set may be embroidered in any design that you would use for the all-white embroidery set. The material used is rather heavy white linen. The design is worked in black mercerized cotton. It must be very carefully worked on the wrong side, few, if any, connecting threads being used when passing from one design to another. If you do not wish to use black curtains at the window, lawn curtains with black figures are good substitutes. If shades are used with the curtains, they should be either all black or white. A black-and-white carpet may be used instead of all white or all black. Black carpet with white rugs, or vice versa, is also effective. The boudoir pillows should be of white embroidered in black. They should not, however, be placed over black pillows, as in the case of pink or blue pillows. White pillows must be used for the purpose or the pillow slips will look soiled. A black-and-white room would prove pleasing to a man. BLACK STOCK IS BECOMING Properly Arranged, It Should Give Just the Right Touch to the Tailored Costume. For a tailored waist there is nothing quite so trig as a black satin stock, high in proportions and livened by a white frill of some sort sticking out under the chin. A decidedly good-looking one of this order is made in this way: Buy half a yard of heavy black satin or grosgrain ribbon. Make this the exact size of the neck, boning it so that it will not sag loosely about the throat. The ribbon'should be very wide so that it can be laid over in flat plats around the throat. These are tacked down in place. Do not fasten in the center back, but on one side, where a row of tiny white, flat pearl buttons is placed. These run up and down; a similar row being placed at the side opposite. The row of buttons should come directly under each ear. Now comes the piece de resistance of the entire stock. These are square tabs of white faille which unfold, petal-like, beneath the chin. One square comes directly under the chin, one on either side of the face, another directly behind each ear and a last one in the back of the collar. These square pieces are wired to stand out like a Pierrot ruff and are a very chic and pretty finish to the somber stock.

Phone 3337 TULSA, OKLA TULSA, OKLA THE TULSA STAR INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON (By E. O. SELLERS, Acting Director of The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago, IL). LESSON FOR APRIL 25 DAVID AND GOLIATH. LESSON TEXT-I Samuel 17:3-51. GOLDEN TEXT-If God be for us, who is against us?-Rom. 8:31 R. V. For forty days (v. 16) Goliath defiled Saul's army, encamped near Bethlehem. Three of the sons of Jesse were in Saul's army and to them David is sent with food (vv. 13, 18, 19). These brothers scornfully reproached David when he expressed a willingness to fight Goliath, accusing him of pride and reminding him that he was but a shepherd (vv. 26-29). David's words are carried to Saul and he is introduced to the king. I. Boastful Pride, vv. 38-44. Fear and dismay were aroused at the very sight of this proud Phillistine (vv. 11, 24, 32), yet such fear was foreign to David, for his eyes were not upon man but upon God (v. 37). He related to Saul his exploits not as boasting but as giving him assurance that God was able to deliver him out of the hand of this Phillistine. Saul, who had once been a man of like simple faith, is now as much in fear as any of his army. David was perhaps about twenty years of age and verse 56 calls him a "stripling," hence it was that Saul's armor would not fit him (cf. 10:23). Humanly speaking, it was an impossible thing David offered to accomplish single-handed. Even Saul (v. 32) sought to dissuade David, but David was not trusting in man nor depending upon the armor of the king (v. 39; Ps. 27:1-3; Isa. 12:2; Rom. 8:31). David took his familiar staff and sling (see I Thess. 5:2') and sallied forth, "strong in the Lord, not in himself; armed not with steel but with faith." Crossing "the valley" (v. 40 marg.) he prepared his sling, with which every Isle was skilled (see I Sam. 13:19-23). On came the giant, a man about nine feet tall (v. 4), "a stalking mountain, overlaid with brass and iron," preceded by his protector (v. 41). Why such a soldier after his period of triumph should desire this added safety is not quite clear. It suggests, however, the sinner's timidity which reveals his essential weakness in that he trusts himself, takes no chances, and is even suspicious of his own supporters. What a contrast! This armored giant and this ruddy-faced, unarmed youth, carrying only the staff, wherewith he was wont to fight wild beasts, and his sling! When God calls a man he uses that weapon with which the man is most familiar, and when the church or the Christian soldier seeks to fight in the armor of another, or by using the weapons of the world, it is foredoomed to failure (Ex. 4:2; Judges 3:31). II. Conquering Humility, vv. 45-51. David acknowledged Goliath's superior armament, yet armed with the name of the God of the army of Israel which Goliath had insulted, his confidence overtops that of the Philistine and he hurls back his broad boast. Furthermore, the victory was to be an immediate one, "this day" (Zech. 4.6; James 4.7). With calm assurance he informs Goliath of the outcome of their conflict, but takes no credit to himself. David had naught but naked faith and the sense of a just cause to strengthen his arm. He would do to Goliath and the Philistines the things that Goliath had boasted he would do to David (vv. 44 and 46) "that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel;" see also v. 47. David's seemingly insufficient preparation is now revealed to be abundant, for he had four stones more than he needed (v. 40). It is thus that God chooses the weak things to confound the mighty (I Cor. 1:27). III. Summary. We have before us three lessons. First the lesson of individual responsibility. A sinful king had paralyzed the effectiveness of the army of Israel. David, "a man after God's own heart," refused Saul's arm, crying out "I cannot go in these." Saul, bound by tradition, must use conventional weapons. Every great advance in the history of the church has been led by some man who struck out boldly, insensible alike to the conventionalism of his friends and the gibes of the enemy. God would have every man work according to himself, not copying, not imitating, but with his own equipment. Second, all the giants of sin have not yet been overthrown. We still have the giants of Intemperance, Unchastity, Graft, Selfishness, Ambition and the Inequalities of our civic and social life. These can only be overcome in the strength of God Bunyan mentions three giants, Pride, Grim and Pagan; to these we may add, Anger, Untruthfulness, Selfishness and Sullenness. Third, Our Helper. See Golden Text. Of all the graces David possessed, faith was the root of each one—faith in a living God. His active faith caused him with nimble feet to attack this blasphemous enemy (v. 48). His faith in God characterizes his entire life, resounds in his songs and strengthened his life of service for Jehovah. It is such faith that strengthens the arm of the true saint of God, that enables him to "overcome" in his own life, to undertake for God and to go to the ends of the earth in his name.

"COUNT" TOO ABSENT MINDED Principal Reason Why One Interna- tional Marriage Was Permanently Called Off. Henry P. Davison of the Morgan banking firm was talking about inter- national marriages: "Well," he said, "I know of one international marriage that failed, thank goodness, to come off. The girl was the daughter of a Paint Rock millionaire. The man was a count, a Spanish count. "The count was absent minded. That was his undoing. The girl's father gave a dinner for him in the Paint Rock castle overlooking Paint Rock, and at the dinner's end the count got up to light a cigarette, and then, by jove, started to remove the plates. "The guests watched him in an open-mouthed silence. His napkin slung over his arm, he had got nearly all the plates removed when his millionaire host said to him gently: "Wake up, George. You're not waiting in the beanery now, you know. You're pretending you're a count in Paint Rock. Wake up, man, for gracious sake!" Had Some Training Billy Mooney, after running a barber shop in Centerville for two or three years, decided to become a dentist. His Uncle Si, upon hearing of this decision, dropped in to talk it over. "Yes, Billy," said he, "dentistry is about the easiest new job you could tackle. You know how to work the chair already, so the rest ought to come easy enough." Quite Correct. "What reason have you for asserting that Love isn't blind?" "Well, I've noticed that his blandest smiles are all for the prettiest girls." Now You Know. "Tell me, do women dress for the men or for each other?" "For both; for the men to admire, and for each other to envy." Grape-Nuts It is made of wheat and barley, and contains all the nutriment of these grains, including those invaluable mineral salts so often lacking in ordinary food, but which are indispensable for normal growth and maintenance of body and brain. One great aim in originating Grape-Nuts was to supply this lack of mineral elements, and it fulfills its purpose admirably. Grape-Nuts is a delicious food, and digests quickly, generally in about one hour. Compare this with the $2\frac{1}{2}$ to 3 hours required by bread.

Proof That It Doesn't Take Much to Start a Story, Especially in a Neighborhood That Is Closely Built. Limpet (arriving home in the middle of the day)—My dear, I've had a telegram saying that there's a sure buyer for the old farm if I come at once. So I'm off on the two o'clock train. Can't tell when I'll be back. Mrs. Limpet—Oh, good-by! I hope it's sold this time! Then we can have the auto! I'll be so anxious. Wire me if it goes through. Mrs. Next-Door (at 5 p.m.)—Oh, how are you, Mrs. Limpet? I just ran in to get that pattern for the crocheted doily you promised me. I was so surprised to see Mr. Limpet rushing out with a bag at noon. He seemed in a terrible hurry. Mrs. Limpet—Yes, he was—er—called away on business. This is the way you do the second circle of the dolly— Mrs. Next-Door—Will he be gone long? Mrs. Limpet—Oh, no. That is, I can't tell exactly. I hope not. Mrs. Next-Door—Well, you just run in often so you won't get lonesome. It seemed so odd, his coming home for his bag instead of taking it with him in the morning if he were going away in a few hours. Mrs. Next-Door (to her husband)—It's the queerest thing, John? Oscar Limpet came tearing home like mad today about lunch time and in a few minutes rushed out of his house with a suit case and tore for the train. He looked awfully white, I thought. I went over to the house later and Mrs. Limpet looked paler than usual, too. And she was mum as an oyster—tried to change the subject when I mentioned his going and stammered when I asked when he'd return. And she pretended to be too busy crocheting even to look at me. I'd hate to say it, but if she had been trying to conceal something she could not have acted differently. What do you suppose—" Mrs. Next-Door's Husband (wisely) —Well, you can't tell these days of frenzied finance. Not that I've ever heard anything against Limpet, but he's got an awful good opinion of himself, and he spends a lot of money on clubs. I shouldn't be surprised at anything." Mrs. Next-Door's Husband (on next morning's train, to his neighbor)—Say do you hear anything about Limpet these days? Some of his actions are a little odd Smith—You don't say! Never did like the chap! Didn't see him on the train last night, come to think of it. Mrs. Next-Door's Husband (low voice)—No, don't mention it, but he hurried home at noon yesterday, packed a bag and skipped. Let's see if there is anything in the papers. Mrs. Smith (speaking fast and hoarsely)—You mustn't breathe it, for my husband would be cross if he knew I repeated it—but he had it on good PAGE THREE ONE CENT LETTER POSTAGE BEING AGITATED One cent postage rate on letters is again being brought into prominence and many high officials declare that it is sure to come in the near future. All classes of business would be greatly benefited by its adoption, and estimated statistics show there, would be such an increased demand for stamps that the apparent loss of revenue would be more than made up. It is an impossibility to place an estimated value on health, it being a most priceless possession—but, perhaps you have been careless or negligent and have allowed weakness to develop within you now in a weakened condition, with reduced petite, impaired digestion and constipated bowels. In order to get back to health and strength you must first help Nature restore the Stomach, Liver and Bowels to a normal aid of Hostetler's Stomach Bitters.

Moreland of the Exchange Insurance Co., is in the city again. George says there is no place like Tulsa. The sermon by Bishop Chappelle Sunday was indeed inspiring as well as instructive.

In ancient times nations at war classed their neighbors as either allies or enemies, writes Herbert W. Bowen. Neutrality as an international relation was not recognized. There were no neutral rights and no neutral duties. International law itself existed only in a very rudimentary form. It was not until after the fall of Rome and until the nations of Europe had become numerous and were asserting and exercising comparatively equal privileges and power that their interests became so conflicting that they perceived the necessity of establishing and supporting a system of law that must be applicable to them in their relations one with another. Grotius (1553-1645), the so-called father of international law, published in 1625 his famous book, "De Jure Belli et Pacis," which described the laws of war and peace. Of neutrals, whom he called middlemen in war, he had but little to say. Bynkerschock, who was born 25 years after the peace of Westphalia was signed, and who was one of the most distinguished successors of Grotius, was, if not the first, at least among the first, of publicists to define and explain neutrality authoritatively, and to give to it a permanent place in the law of nations.

GARIBALDI'S FATHER General Garibaldi's visit to London recalls the tremendous welcome which the metropolis gave his father half a century ago, says the London Pall Mall Gazette. The duke of Sutherland's four-horse carriage, which conveyed the popular hero from Waterloo to Stafford house, took six hours to force its way through the crowds of cheering people who thronged the route, and afterwards literally fell in pieces in the stable, having been strained to the breaking point by the weight of the thousands of strong arms which had clung to its sides as it passed through "a London gone mad with joy."

In Use For Over Thirty Years CASTORIA Beautiful Notes of the Nightingale, for Instance, Are Inspired by Paternal Love. It is generally assumed that a bird sings because he is happy, but science goes deeper for an explanation of the why and wherefore of the bird's song. Nature's optimistic joy in constructive progress is expressed in the singing of the male birds who charm their mates to further their wooing, and continue after eggs are laid to encourage the fulfillment of hatching. The song stops when the little birds come out of the shell. The nightingale, for weeks during the period of nest-building and hatching, charms his mate and human ears near him with the beautiful music of his love song. But as soon as the little nightingales come from the eggs the song changes to a sort of guttural croak, implying anxiety and sense of responsibility. If the nest and contents were destroyed the nightingale would at once resume his beautiful song to inspire his mate to help him build another nest and start all over again the loving work of being fruitful and multiplying.

A FOOD DRINK Which Brings Daily Enjoyment A lady doctor writes: "Though busy hourly with my own affairs, I will not deny myself the pleasure of taking a few minutes to tell of the enjoyment obtained daily from my morning cup of Postum. It is a food beverage, not a stimulant like coffee. "I began to use Postum 8 years ago; not because I wanted to, but because coffee, which I dearly loved, made my nights long, weary periods to be dreaded and unfitting me for business during the day. "On advice of a friend, I first tried Postum, making it carefully as suggested on the package. As I had always used 'cream and no sugar', I mixed my Postum so. It looked good, was clear and fragrant, and it was a pleasure to see the cream color it as my Kentucky friend always wanted her coffee to look, 'like a new saddle.' "Then I tasted it critically, for I had tried many 'substitutes' for coffee. I was pleased, yes, satisfied with my Postum in taste and effect, and am yet, being a constant user of it all these years. "I continually assure my friends and acquaintances that they will like Postum in place of coffee, and receive benefit from its use. I have gained weight, can sleep and am not nervous."

The facts concerning the address were given out by the corresponding secretary, Henry A. Boyd, who states that this address was prepared by a committee consisting of C. V. Roman, chairman, Nashville, Tenn.; W. E. King of Dallas, Tex.; Joseph L. Jones of Cincinnati, Ohio; Emmett J. Scott of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., and T. G. Stewart of Wilberforce, Ohio. This document, which made up the report of the committee, says, in part: "The National Negro Press association in convention assembled takes this opportunity to consider the condition of the country, especially in so far as it concerns the Negro. "The student of history is alive to the fact that for the past fifty years the Afro-American element has been by law made a part of the citizenry of the republic. The National Negro Press association believes that there are many evidences everywhere covering every walk of life to show that the Christian white element is doing much to advance the civilization and progress of the Negro peoples. "In the fields of journalism we are gratified to bear witness to the growing liberality of a large element of the white press, not confined to any section of the country. "In the field of religious effort there has been no time when white Christians showed a higher respect for the great doctrine of the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man than now. "In the field of education we make haste to bear testimony to the great and growing philanthropy which is laying itself upon the educational altar of the race. There is unmistakable evidence that white America is coming to the unalterable opinion that the strength of the nation is not in its armies and navies and embattled cities, but rather in the virtue and intelligence of the people. "We call specially upon those who are charged with the interpretation and enforcement of the law to attend its benefits without bias to us, to the end that the struggling millions of the colored race may continue to hope for that governmental encouragement which should be the heritage of the humblest American citizen. "The strong need the restrictions of the law and the weak need its protection. When the former lose respect for the law and despise its restrictions, or the latter lose faith in its fairness and doubt the justice of its execution, then popular government is in danger. Fitness and not race is the only safe test for citizenship if our country is to become in reality the 'land of the free and the home of the brave.' As we can best serve the nation by faithful service to our own cultural unity, so the national welfare will be best promoted by the general acceptance of the good old democratic doctrine of 'equal and exact justice to all and special privilege to none.' "We appreciate the growing liberality of the American press and wish to assure that we will not disappoint it if it will only 'play us up,' empha- A favorable report from the committee on increased accommodations of the Baltimore school board for an elementary school for colored pupils in the Fourteenth ward, which comprises all that territory between Pennsylvania avenue and the Fallsway and North and Lafayette avenues, is expected shortly. The committee has had the question of such a school under advisement for several months due to the activity of City Councilman A. C. Binswanger. There is a Negro population in the ward of approximately 10,000, and of this there are between 1,200 and 1,500 Negro children of school age. The present accommodations are not only far from that section but are inadequate in every way. The nearest school is an annex to the building at Fremont and Pennsylvania avenues, and this school has long been overcrowded. The need of either a colored high school or an elementary school for colored children has long been agitated and as the high school is practically assured City Councilman Binswanger has endeavored to also have A Springfield (Mo.) man took out homestead papers the other day on an 89-acre tract of land 100 miles from that city. Before applying at the land office for the paper he walked the entire distance and back in order to visit the property. When he got back he had just money enough to pay for the land and cover the necessary fees. A tale from the Pacific relates that a steamer whose rudder unexpectedly broke was steered for several days by packing boxes hung over the sides. sizing our virtues and letting our vices go into the general cauldron of crime without special label. Applaud us when we run, console us when we fall, cheer us when we recover." The organization has membership in every state in the Union and in many foreign countries. Melvin J. Chisum of Okmulglee, Okla., is president. His administration is supported by two executive committeeemen from each state where the newspapers justify it. They are to hold their next executive committee meeting in Boston, but the regular session is to be held in some centrally located place, like St. Louis, Mo., Louisville, Ky., Nashville, Tenn., or Cincinnati, Ohio. This matter will be decided at the coming Boston meeting. A throng of colored men and women, which packed Bethel A. M. E. church at Baltimore to its doors, was stirred to conduct an active campaign for recognition in the state to improve their health conditions and properly care for their sick and infirm by several prominent speakers. It was the opening session of the first public health conference of the Maryland Colored Health association under the auspices of the medical and chirurgical faculty of Maryland. Resolutions were adopted by unanimous vote to petition the next legislature for adequate provision in the state for the isolation of all classes of colored people suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis. Among the speakers were Dr. William H. Welch, one of the leading medical men of the country, and Dr. Booker T. Washington, one of the greatest Negro educators in the country. The meeting was scheduled to begin at eight o'clock and 6:30 o'clock there was a crowd outside the church. Within ten minutes after the doors were thrown open, shortly after seven o'clock, the edifice was filled. So dense was the strong outside at eight o'clock that it was necessary to lock the doors. It was estimated that several thousand persons were turned away from the doors. A direct appeal was made by all of the speakers to be cleanly and to guard against disease as well as to continue to make strides for advancement. Doctor Washington congratulated the Negroes of Baltimore on their educational facilities. "What you get from the city in the way of education is in the right proportion," he said, "as the total population of the colored man is 15 per cent and the money spent on the education of the Negro is 15 per cent of the total appropriation for schools." St. Louis business men forgot their work for two hours at the City club when Maj. R. R. Moton, Negro commandant of Hampton institute, near Old Point Comfort, addressed them, following a score of songs by the Hampton quartet. Major Moton is a real Negro and is proud of it. He believes the Negro should be trained to work with his hands and told of the work Hampton institute is doing along that line. He said the problem might well be expressed as a question of how the two races may live together as brothers in Christ and yet not become brothers in law. A good deal of the "dope" is misleading. If you really want your secret kept tell it to a woman. a modern and up-to-date elementary school to properly care for the overcrowded conditions which now exist. The city councilman recently appeared before the school board with a colored delegation and after the needs of such a school had been pointed out, the question was referred to the committee on increased accommodations. Mr. Binswanger has been assured that the best efforts possible would be put forth to obtain the school. In response to the advertisement of the United States navy department for 1,500,000 teak decking logs, a Manila lumber firm has submitted an offer of 500,000 feet of yacal, a Philippine wood resembling teak, which is regarded as the equal of teak for construction purposes. This is the first time that such offers of Philippine woods have been made to the navy.

DUTCH SHIP SUNK BY SUBMARINE AND WILHELMINA'S KINGDOM DE- MANDS SATISFACTION. Carrying Corn From Baltimore Consigned to the Dutch Government —Was at Anchor When Hit. London.—The Dutch steamer Kat- wyk, Netherlands, from Baltimore for Rotterdam was torpeded while an- chored seven miles to the west of the North Hinder lightship in the North Sea. The crew of twenty-seven men was saved and taken aboard the light- ship. The sinking of the vessel aroused the indignation of the Dutch people as evidenced by the editorials of the newspapers in Holland. The Katwyk, which was leaded with corn from Baltimore consigned to the Dutch government, was lying at anchor at the time of the explosion and to have been flying the Dutch flag. The Dutch newspapers insist therefore that no mistake could have been made and that if a German submarine actually torpeded the steamer "we must expect that the German government will without loss of time, be made responsible for this severe violation of the rights of the neutral powers. The fact that the Dutch Government was directly involved in the Katwyk's cargo and that the news of the sinking of the steamer came immediately on top of the announcement that four Dutch trawlers had been seized by the Germans and taken to Zebruege apparently heightened the feelings of the Hollanders. The Amsterdam Telegraaf, commenting on the occurrence, says: "We expect that the German government will without loss of time be made responsible for this severe violation of the rights of the neutral powers. The plain fact is that a Dutchship, chartered by the Dutch government, has been torpedoed off the Dutch coast by a state pretending to maintain friendly relations with the Netherlands. How many similar proofs of friendship must we receive before we declare we prefer open enmity?" The Katwyk incident and many rumors of diplomatic movements in Italy and the near east seemingly has made the people of England almost forget the latest Zeppelin raid over Northumberland county, and the fighting on the continent. NAW — HUERTA NEVER DID IT But He Has a Sneaking Idea He Could Name Madero's Murderer. New York.—Vehemently asserting that he had nothing to do with the death of Francisco Madero, General Victoriano Huerta, former provisional president of Mexico, issued a lengthy signed statement, setting forth what he termed his side of the Mexican situation. General Huerta declared that he knew who was responsible for Madero's death, but that he was keeping it as a professional secret. General Huerta's statement reviewed the history of the Madero revolution, his own accession to the provisional presidency and concluded with the assertion that "my country cannot be conquered." Sixteen millions of men, women and children would have to be killed before Mexico would submit to an invader, he asserted. The heads of the Washington administration, he declared, had not been fair to Mexico, had been misled by false statements and if they had been in Mexico for thirty days "they would have changed their theoretical, erroneous ideas." Had it not been for the embargo on the exportation of arms from this country, General Huerta indicated that his army would have prevailed over those opposed to it. Freight Train Is Held Up. Buffalo, N. Y.-The bandits who held up a fast freight tarin on the New York Central railroad between here and Niagara Falls have escaped capture. The motor trucks used by the thieves to carry away their loot were traced in the general direction of Buffalo. Estimates of the amount of goods obtained from the train vary from $10,000, announced by railroad officials, up to unofficial estimates of $50,000. The goods carried away consisted principally of silks and other expensive fabrics. ENGLAND MAKES FULL REPARATION WILHELMINA CARGO WILL BE PURCHASED AND OWNERS OF SHIP PAID. STILL FIGHTING HARD IN HUNGARY Teutons Contesting Every Inch of the Advance of the Russian Troops—Uzok Pass the Chief Prize of the Battle. London.—The British government has agreed to purchase the cargo of the American steamer Wilhelmina and to compensate the owners for loss. The ship then will be released. An agreement to this effect was reached between the W. L. Green Commission Company of St. Louis and the government. The Wilhelmina, an American steamer, sailed from New York for Hamburg January 22 with a general cargo of food products. She was taken into custody by the British marine authorities, since then her case has been pending. Under the agreement made Great Britain agrees to pay the price the owners would have realized on their cargo had it gone to Hamburg and also to compensate the owners for the loss received in consequence of the ship being stopped. Two gateways into Hungary still remain barred, despite the tremendous hammering by the Russian forces and as the Beskid pass is the less important of the two strategically, a further advance into Hungary hanga upon the possession of Uzok pass, where the invaders are meeting with the most stubborn opposition. To relieve the pressure of the Russians is an additional reason for the activity of their allies in the west. The report that Emperor William personally is directing the operations in the Carpathians is doubted as also is the rumor from Cologne that Field Marshal Von Hinderberg has asked for reinforcements to the extent of 300,000 men to undertake another campaign against Warsaw. It is thought to be far more likely that he will attempt to divert the attention of the Russians by a thrust from the direction of Cracow. An attempted diversion of this character is revealed by the Russian communication which reports a futile Austrian attack in the direction of the Stry. Apparently this is designed to turn the left flank of the Russian army and so threaten all lines of communication north and south which supplies the Russians fighting in the Beskid range of the Carpathians. VILLA IS LOSING AT MATAMORAS Carranza Troops Hold Impregnable Position. Brownsville, Texas.—In a sortie the Carranza garrison at Matamoros inflicted a heavy blow upon the Villa army besieging them. General Sandonavarro, second in command of the Villa troops, was brought to Brownsville dangerously wounded and the Carranza consulate here claimed the Villa dead numbered 300. The sortie drew from the Villa forces their long promised shelling of Matamoros, but the shelling stopped when the Carranza garrison returned to the trenches and with the positions of the armies practically unchanged. During the bombardment eight shells passed completely over Matamoros and four others dropped in the city, where they did little damage and caused no known casualties. The shelling demonstrated that so long as the Villa cannon retain their present positions to the extreme west of Matamoros, Brownsville is probably quite safe from shell fire, but it demonstrated sharply what would happen to Brownsville if the besieging artillery fired at Matamoros from any other direction. Both factions are absolutely refusing to permit anyone to cross the river to obtain direct news of the fighting and both clam to have won the fight. Villa officers said that the sorties first drove in the Villa outposts, but the Carranza troops retreated when the Villa cavalry brought up its main force. The Villa troops were known to have some dead and wounded, but the denied the number was 300. Colonel A. P. Blocksom, in charge of the United States post and the border patrol here, arranged to guard the American side of the river closely. Extra forces were sent to the international bridge. Contrary to the usual scenes during border fighting, there was no rush of refugees across the river from Matamatos. General E. P. Nafarrate, the Carranza commander, put an absolute embarko upon any person entering or leaving Matamatos except the American consul and the Carranza consul here. Wm. B. Nelson Dead. Kansas City.—Wm.

City State UCKLES POUND WEIGHT GROUND COFFEE EST. 1870, NEW YORK Death Lurks In A Weak Heart "LIFE, LIBERTY AND PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS" "LIFE, LIBERTY AND PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS" A Western Canada Farmer Writes as to Conditions. A. G. Hansen is a farmer living near Clavet, Sask., and as an old resident of Minnesota, takes strong exception to some of the articles appearing in American papers disparaging the true conditions in Western Canada. The "Cottonwood Current" of Cottonwood, Minn., an important weekly paper in the southwestern part of the state, recently published a letter from Mr. Hansen, which is interesting reading. In his letter Mr. Hansen makes a splendid case for Western Canada against those who seek to deter farmers in the States from settling in Canada. He says: "The district in which we live is a fair comparison to any other district in the country, made up mostly of setters from the States. The majority here consists of Americans from Minnesota, Iowa and the Dakota, with a few Canadians and an odd Englishman. We have been here eleven years, ever since this part of the country was settled, and the majority have done well. If they have not, it is certainly not the fault of the country. "There has not been a crop failure in this district since settled. This year was the poorest, caused by lack of rain, although a fair estimate of wheat is about twelve bushels per acre, average, and oats about ten. Some farmers got as much as twenty-five bushels of wheat per acre, and we all got good prices. "The laws of Canada are nearly the same as those of Minnesota, and we enjoy the same privileges." "So far as the European war is concerned, we suffer to a certain extent as all the world does. Canada is giving a helping hand to her Mother Country, and we American-Canadians firmly believe it is Canada's duty to do so. I have not heard one American-Canadian who has expressed a different opinion. Canada is not compelled to send her soldiers. The service rendered is all voluntary service. "The accusation that old settlers are considered undesirable citizens and are forced out of business, even in danger of being 'mobbed at their own fireside,' is all false, a mere fabrication in the mind of badly informed correspondents. There are a few who have been discovered carrying letters, others papers and plans to prove them epics, and whose object is to conspire against the government. These have justly been arrested. Such a class of people cannot be considered good citizens, whether living in Canada or in the United States. "Some people are failures wherever they are, and as an excuse for failure in their country it may seem easy to put the blame on the Canadian people and the Canadian government. Fact is, thousands of people from the United States are emigrating to Canada at the present time, which shows they are not afraid of the Canadian government. "The government is giving away, free of charge, provision through the winter to farmers in certain districts affected by the drought, and is also sending seed grain to those in need of help. This is very different from driving settlers away from their own homes. "I have always observed that the people who love their Mother Country most are those who make the best citizens of their adopted country. The glorious 'Stars and Stripes' will always stand for what is good and noble to us, though we live in a neighbor country where we also enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. — Advertisement.

THE NEW ENG LAND NEGRO Continued from page one ca, on whose faculty are some of the ablest minds of the present day. Contact with these men is an Inspiration to higher and nobler efforts, for they treat all students as men responsible to the same ideals, answerable to the same laws, moved by like motives, destroyed by the same evils, quickened and enriched by the same blessings which are in force wherever the thought of God has a practicable reality and conscience a social significance. In view of these inexhaustible possibilities, it is no wonder that the southern negro conceives that his more favored brothers in this region must be deeply sensible of the obligation, to make the most of these privileges resting upon them. That the southern negro finds that the northern contact has been fruitful of good to his people is a truth that cannot be denied. The intelligence and energy of this Puritan environment have quickened his nature and made him more alert in speech and manner. His progress along material lines is well marked; his home has modern conveniences and the number of these homes is rapidly increasing—a fact which testifies very eloquently to the negro's thrift and economy. The severity of the climate and the keen spirit of competition have caused him to realize the significance of the old adage—a dollar saved is a dollar earned. It has also made him realize that in order to hold his job he must be punctual and regular. That these are mile-stones marking his journey on the road to progress cannot but be admitted by the most pessimistic on the negro question in the north. But notwithstanding this broad, though imperfect, development the question naturally arises as to whether the negro has recognized his responsibility in an adequate way, and whether he is making the most of his opportunities. Deeply conscious of and sympathetic with his economic difficulties and his struggle for maintenance of self, one cannot after a survey of the statistics of the universities, colleges, and libraries and an ocular study combined with the testimony of attendants of the museum and lecture halls, but answer the question negatively. Let one examine the statistics for the scholastic year 1911-12 of the higher institutions of learning. He will find that there were in Harvard University sixteen colored men registered from western and southern states, with the exception of two—one New York; the other from New Jersey. Boston University had thirteen colored students. New England contributed three to that number. The Massachusetts institute of Technology had no colored students in any of departments. Tufts College had two colored, students, one belonging in Medford, the other in Cambridge. There were five in the Medical and Dental Schools—three from the South and two Bostonians. One might legitimately ask why this condition of affairs obtains here among the negroes: Is it because he is discriminated against in the schools and public places? Is it lack of money to enter college? Is it lack of inclination? The first proposition is groundless and inconsistent for if there is anything that makes Boston a desirable place for the Colored people (in their opinion at least,) if there is anything here of which they are road, it is the lack of discrimination in the public places where they re --- Manchester, New Hampshire ceive courteous and impartial treatment. The second suggestion is equally fallacious in that four-fifths of the Colored students in the above named schools are self-supporting. One is then driven to the conclusion that these disparaging conditions exist because of lack of inclination on the part of the Negroes. On the third page of a small handbook, presented to the students annually by the Phillips Brooks' House Association of Harvard, are a few words of greeting by President Lowell to the Freshmen, in which he says in part: "The opportunities are limited only by your capacity to take vantage of them." These words in a large measure explain the situation here. Manifold opportunities are offered to all classes and groups, but those—be they individuals or whole groups—who have not the inclination to take advantage of them, find that their opportunities are very limited. One does not enter into the heritage of a wider culture and training simply by virtue of the environment, for "Whether it be beautiful scenery, or noble monuments, or venerable ruins, or paintings, or music, or books, or contact with life things presented to us educate us only inasmuch as we react upon them." Lack of race solidarity is another hindrance to a more denine development. Many of the race, who are farseeing are constantly working to bring about unity. The white friends of the Negro those who show their interest in word and in deed realize the gravity of this non-cooperation and by continued effort try to rouse them to the fact that "permanent progressiveness is found where the social aggregate is characterized by cohesion among its paris and that the groups an dnot the individual must become the unit in order that it might be of profit to the species and to the race." This is not an academic hypothesis but a sociological truth which originating with primitive peoples has been handed down to us through the ages. At this stage of development of the race cooperation cannot be too strongly emphasized and when the full import of that truth is learned, the race will find itself growing in wisdom and in strength; it will promote that unity and cooperation which are essential and indispensable for the highest development of a people. It is often said that because Massachusetts in the past made possible jobs and positions for the Negro he expects from her by virtue of his racial identity today, more than she is giving. That is indeed a greviosa mistake. In a commonwealth like Massachusetts where freedom is not a mockery, the fact that one belongs to a certain race or group does not entitle him to greater consideration in the way of situations and positions. Let him have some wares to place upon the market, and if they measure up to the standard of other wares but are refused then it is time to protest but not 'till them. A few days ago the writer heard a minister, in conversation, complain because he coud nolt exchange pulpits with his white brother ministers. In the first place—as he was shown by the man with whom he spoke—he had not tried; in the second place his standard intellectually would not warrant an exchange of pulpits with any minister regardless of nationality who had an intelligent congregation. Again that his disparaging conclusion was erroneous is proved by the fact that the two or three Negro ministers who have something to offer, exchange pulpits with their white brothers. But if education and training do not open to the Negro in Massachusetts desirable positions, shall he in despair exclaim: "What is the use?" Shall he content himself because of mal-adjustment in one place with be- KAHN'S BIG SALE Don't miss this opportunity but attend our BIGSALE Shoes, Dry Goods, Silk Dresses, Panama Hats for men women and children at one half the half.

In this region conscientious men and women are needed. It was to help these less fortunate souls that Booker T. Washington went to the woods of Alabama and later, Du Bois needed the call of the red hills of Georgia. In the early years of the Negroes' emancipation it was necessary that he should be led out of the case of darkness by the guidance of the faithful few of the stronger race, but no wit becomes the duty of those whose eyes are accustomed to the light to go down to those who see but the shadows of objects upon the wall, those whose knowledge is of shadows only, from whom the realities are ever hidden. The Negro and the Negro alone can do this work adequately—work that if patiently and sympathetically done will leave the whole lump and help to hasten the day when all men will be lovers and every prejudice will be dissolved in the universal sunshine. The writer does not speak as a pessimist, but rather as one looking on the dark side of the shield; he speaks as one interested in the welfare of his people north and south. He has come to the conclusion that all things considered, the South offers better opportunities to the Colored man. He is not unmindful of the prejudices and the disadvantages that obtain there, but the Southern Negro is daily turning his disadvantages into advantages. The Negro will continue to develop in this Puritan environment as he has in the past, but his development will be greater and more definite when he realizes in a larger measure that cooperation and cohesion are necessary for the development of any people, when he comes to a fuller realization of the vast opportunities he has here for culture, for education and for the laying of a broad foundation for the professions and for citizenship.
