WAR ON THE DANCE
Will Unite in Campaign Against
Certain Public Dancing of Cor


rupt Influence.
The colored pastors of the city, un-
der the leadership of Rev. J. Milton
Waldron of Shiloh Baptist Church,
have united in a warfare on the
dances given by certain colored peo-
pie on steamboats,, picnic grounds and
public halls, and are preparing to do
all in their power to place them in
popular disfayor.
These dances, it is declared by the
ministers, are patronized by old and
young, by church members and by
those who make no pretension to
Christianity.
Experience proves, it is pointed out
in a circular letter which has been
sent out by the pastors, that the
leaders in the churches should dc
all in their power to stamp ont the
practice which has grown to such
an extent among the young coloret
people Of the city.
Source of Intemperance
These public dances, it is declared
are sources of intemperance ant
! Icoarseness and are the greatest source
of the worldly mindedness which i
playing such havoc in all the church
es."
"TIe habit Of giving public ball
and dances,' it is said, is also in
vading the educational institutions O
our city to an alarming extent, and i!
working untold injury to the physi
cal, intellectual and moral we'll be
ing of the school children and tn,
student bodies in Washington"
Many of the pastors have preach
ed special sermons on the subject anC
it is expected that the campaign tC
stamp out the dance will be con
tinued.

The Model stall is a home made
product and was originated by ex-Gov.
W. ID. Hoard. He has used this stall
In his own stables for several years
and finds It very satisfactory. 1t is
probably the nearest approach to a
perfect stall Of any in use at the
present time. 1t is constructed, as
shown In illustration, SO az to force the
COW to have her hind feet between the
crossbar and gutter when standing,
thus preventing the .fouling Of the
stall by her own droppings When
lying down she Is brought forward
and compelled to lie In front of the
crossbar. The cow is forced to stand
back from the hay rack when eating
because Of the position in which 1t is
hung. The crossbar is adjustable and
the stall will accommodate a large or
small COW. The chain or fastening is
so arranged that as the COW starts to
lie down she Is drawn forward and
will step in front of this crossbar to
prevent an uncomfortable position.
The door in front is hinged at the top
and opens upward when grain and
water are given. Hay is placed in the
hay rack from the front. The parti.
lions are so constructed that It is al.
most impossible for cow to step
upon the udder or teat of one lying
down next to her. This feature alone
is worth the cost of several stalls to
the owner Of valuable individuals.
A wooden mat is laid over the con.
crete floor. This mat is removable,
permitting the cleansing of the entire
floor whenever occasion demands. II
1t seems desirable the Manager may be
constructed Of concrete the same as
the floor and where new stalls are be.
ing erected the manger and floors
should be made at the same time,
This construction will be more durable
than separate construction.
