too. The people endorsed them by
an Overwhelming majority, and the
lawmakers should not unnecessarily

Millions We Burn or Gamble.

In all this huge country of ours we
build about 100000 900 worth of new
buildings a year; our fire losses, in
Guiding cost of fire departments and
insurance, exceeds that sum. Two
hundred millions of dollars are actu-
ally burned up, gone into smoke; fire
departments, high water pressure and
all that sort Of thing mean nearly
$500, 100000 more; we annually pay
out $195, 900, 900 to the gentlemen who
condescend to gamble with us on the
question of fire in insurance premi-
ums.
The sum of these amounts, writes
". F. Fitzpatrick, in the Metropolitan
Magazine, is our fire cost, and we get
back, after considerable trouble and
some litigation, about $95, 900, 900 frsn
the insurance companies as a slight
salve for u fire injuries!

'T believe" said Mr. Washington, "the

lynching can be largely blotted out and
controlled by cooperation between the
races. This unfortunate habit of lynch

are charged with assaults on women,
has gradually grown until in the last

BETHEL LITERARY.

On Tuesday night. March 70, the au-
ditorium OF the Metropolitan A. NJ. E.
Church was filled TO hear Mrs. Ellen
Spencer Mussey, member of the Board
of Education. On this occasion Mrs.
Mussey spoke from the depths of her
heart her remarks being full of sympa-
thy, practical illustrations and magnet
ism. Her attitude was that of one lift
, ing another up to a higher plane OF liv-
, ing for she demonstrated very clearly
that no home could be what the Creator
/ intended all homes to be without I'm
ity." Therefore the keynote of her
speech was Unity in the Home" And
if there ever was a time when that all
important force is needed, it certainly
is now. Not only in the colored home,
but in the white, the brown, the yellow
and the homes of all races. When this
force is taken out of the home, then the
social world becomes corrupt
Mrs. Mussey's ability to adapt herself
to all conditions seemed to be para
mount on Tuesday night She spoke
/ freely on the subject, introducing here
and there in her remarks, differenl
points of interest, which she thought
might appeal to the practical mind.
Given this freedom of speech, she did
not forget to mention it in her final re-
marks to the audience.
| Mrs. Mussey emphasized very en-
phatically one OF the important requisites
in order to have unity in home was
Comfort giving as a practical Illus
tration a comfortable chair in a corner
for mother or father. She said that
there should not be simply a comfort
able chair for mother and father, but
there ought to be one for the children.
how often a child will wait until the
mother or father goes out of the room,
and then he viii jump into the COM
| portable chair OF the mother or father.
Many people, she said, sacrifice comfort
in the home for fine dressing, which is
quite a temptation.
! In order that there may be comfort
in the home, the children should be
educated. That is, the hand, the head
and the heart should be trained to do
something.
Dr. Amanda Gray presented Mrs.
Mussey with a handsome bouquet OF
roses, together with a presentation ad-
dress, which any after dinner speaker
would envy. They were graciOusly re-
ceived by Mrs Mussey.
Mr.. Mertz, Director of Night Schools
who was the guest of Mrs. Mussey, was
called upon to open the discussion. He
said that he would not discuss the paper
but would make a few remarks empha.
sizing what Mrs. Mussey had said The
> one thought that he wished to impress
upon the minds of the people was, Give
to the world the best you have and tht
best will come back to you" Fitting
remarks were made by Rev. o. J. w
