Mothers and fathers ought to be
more careful about how they talk
before their children. But we under
stand that there are some mothers
who go so far as to encourage their
children to be insulting to teachers.
We want to make this statement,
that whoever does such thing, you
are to that extent destroying the very
life of such child.-McDowell
Times, Keyston, w. Va.

We hope every Negro young man
in Columbia and in the entire state
has read or will read the lengthy edi-
torial in last Sundays State paper
on The City and the Vagrant Ne
gro which editorial we would like
TO reproduce in these columns.
Said editorial is logical and to
the point, and we believe writ
ten in spirit of fairness and for
the real and lasting good of the col
cred man. There are times when
we fairly shudder for many Of the
young men of our race quite a num-
ber of whom seem to be entirely sat
isfied at leading lives of idleness,
which in itself breeds crime, because
of their lack of industry and their
not caring for regular employment.
Our young men in the towns and
cities should be taught from every
Preside, from every pulpit and from
every schoolhouse that it is criminal
to be idle and not working for an
honest living.-The Peoples Record

Some of the men of means of this
city give as their reason for not go
ing into business of any kind that will
be of benefit to themselves and other
members of the race, that the men
who usually start these businesses
are not worth anything and they do
not care to be associated in business
with men who haven't any money
WE'LL that is all right, you have a
right to that idea of the matter. But
why is it that the men who have
the money don't come together and
start something? We have in mind
now several individuals who are fl
nancially able to start any kind of
business they decide to, or we ex-
pect it would be better to say, any
kind of business, for they may never
decide to start any kind. If these
people who have money would start
a business of some kind with their
capital, other members of the race
would patronize them, and would not
be displeased at not having part in
the business. The thing we want is
business of some kind owned by our
people.-The Interstate Reporter,

EDITOR GUARDIAN Riding across

Cases Grande, Chihuahua, Mexico,
about $50 p. M, on the night of
March 22d, with the moon nearing
the full and a cloudless sky, | was
suddenly startled by flood of light,
before which the moon and stars
paled almost as if the sun itself had
appeared in the heavens. Glancing
westward, | beheld a ball of fire,
apparently the size of the moon,
flying through space toward the
south; midway in its flight two balls
of fire left the main body, explod'
ing in the air, throwing myriads OF
stars in every direction. The meteor
disappeared behind the hills at a
distance | would Judge to be from
fifteen to twenty miles, when there
was an explosion and trembling OF
the earth that was heard and felt
| for distance of fifty miles.
The next morning / rode into the
hills about where | thought the
meteor had fallen but was unable
to find any trace of it.
The State of Chihuahua is noteC

fallen within it's boundries, severa
of which have been found and arr

Antiouity of Death Masks.

Although there is no mention OF
death masks in the works of Homer or
In any of the later classics, modern eX-
plorers have satisfied themselves that
in the early burials of all nations 1t
was the custom to cover the heads and
bodies of the dead with sheets of gold
so pliable that they took the impress
Of the form, and not infrequently,
when In the course Of centuries the
embalmed flesh had shriveled or fall
en- away, the gold retained the exact
cast Of the features. Schliemann found
number of bodies covered with
large masks Of gold plate In repousse
work." several Of which have been re-
produced by means Of engraving In his
"Mycenae," and he asserts that there
can be no doubt whatever that each
one Of these represents the likeness OF
the deceased person whose face 1t COW

"Lest We Forget"

The government has received an
offer from a responsible business
man of fifty cents ton royalty on
Alaskan coal. 1t is estimated that
such royalty would net the people
of the United States $2,000,00N on
100 acres of coal land. The geolog-
ical survey estimates that ten billion
tons Of coal are in sight in known
coal areas of Alaska. Fifty cents a
ton on this amount would yield the
government $4,000, ,000,0 900.
This is the coal land that the De-
partment of the Interior has been
in haste under the administration of
Secretary Ballinger to sell outright
to the Guggenheim syndicate for
$40 per acre.
Attention was first called to this
monumental grab and public indig-
nation was aroused by l.. R. CLAWS,
chief of field service of the Depart
ment of the Interior. Mr.. CLAWS
efforts were powerfully supported
by Clifford Pinchot, forester; by
Overton w. Price, his first assistant,
and by Albert C. Price. assistant
law officer of the forest service. As
result of their efforts the plunder
plan was stopped and the govern
ment has received a first offer that
promises to produce an enormous
revenue.
Because, in their eagerness to
protect the public domain, these
men were insubordinate to their i'm
mediate superiors, the four have
been dismissed from the service of
the United States by President Taft.

BLUE EYED BABIES.

They Are the Favorites For Adoption
Out of Orphan AsyIums.
EVERY baby who expects to be
adopted out Of an orphan asylum
ought to make 1t point of being born
with blue eyes," said an asylum direct
or. "That precaution will insure him
maximum of home comforts with a
minimum Of endeavor. There Is no
doubt that in an institution of this
kind blue eyed babies up for adoption
are more popular than the dark eyed
youngsters. The brown eyed, black
eyed or gray eyed girl or boy may be
just as pretty, just as amiable just as
likely to achieve future eminence as
the blue eyed child, but It is hard to
make benevolent auxiliaries of the
stork believe SO. In their opinion blue
eyes indicate special virtues
"T know he will turn out to be an
honest, reliable little fellow because he
has such heavenly blue eyes, is the
way they explain their preference.
$50 on the strength of these heaven
ly blue eyes the baby is chosen. The
youngster will no doubt do justice to
his bringing up, but it is hard for the
children with eyes of another color to
be so Disseminated against."-St. Lou.
