There is a great difference between a we'll dressed woman ana a
woman of fashion. You can dress yourself in the best of taste with
out in the least following fashions vagaries. although 1t is better to
take fashions ideas and adapt them to your own personality.
The woman who dresses badly is the woman who does not think
about her clothes. Anything that is s important not only to her
self, but to the commercial wellbeing of the country rs clothes
should receive careful attention from everyone who wears them.
Many girls buy hats o II frocks because someone they know looks
we'll in them. There ire probably just one hat and one gown in
every seasons mode which each Individual girl AN call her own.
She should look around until she finds that hat and that dress.
1t is not necessary to spend a great deal of money to be we'll
dressed, but must wear a suitable gown for ones time, place
and crcumsance-that is the secret of good dressing.
I always feel sorry for the girl whose station in life does not per-
NIT her to wear the funy-rufes and delicate colors that all girls
love, but 1t is very foolish for the girl who works either in a store
or a n office to attempt to wear something which she fondly thinks
Whatever you do, dear girls. don't wear imitation things. A
pretty, wel-made gingham is much more to be desired and will look
better than a near-sik. and a plain sailor hat of a good straw with
a simple band will look much pretter upon a young girl than a lot
of fimsy roses and imitation lace that the dampness of the first rainy
day will ruin.
A great many girls are anxious to know what colors they can
wear becomingly. A good way to decide this is to take some of the
material of the color you admire and, hold 1t up close to your face,
placing yourself in a strong light You a Immediately tell If 1t will
become you r not. Often, however, you a wear a color that is not
especially becoming If you combine 1t with white next the face

MORGAN WOULD AID FISK

The trustees in New York of
Fisk University, schoo for train
ing colored teachers at Nashville,
Tenn, have received letter from
j. Pierpont Morgan, notifying
them that he will subscribe the
last $25, 1000 of the fund which the
school must raise to meet the con-
ditions of a gift of $4,000 from
tie general Education Board.
Fisk University is seeking to
raise a fund of $56O,000. The
General Education Board agreed
to give $4,000 when $4,000 has
oeen raised. The New York trus-
tees of Fisk University stated
recently that the time limit on
the conditional gift of 100000 ex-
pires on Saturday of this week,
and the university is at this time
S137 900 short of the amount it
must raise. Many of the gifts are
contingent upon raising the entire
amount, and the university may
lose most of the $5OO,OO0 unless
the $4,000 is donated by Satur-
day.

MISTAKEN FOR COL
ORED WOMAN

Memphis, Tenn, June 10.-Mrs.
John A. Cathey 1901 College ave-
nue., manager of the "All-Star Mus
ical Course" today alleged she was
mistaken for colored woman as a
basis for her $4,000 damage suit
against the Nashville, Chattanooga
and st. Louis Railroad filed in the
Shelby County Court.
In a recent trip to Lebanon,
Tenn, Mrs. Cathey says conduc-
tor ordered her into a Jim Grow
car. She protested, and claims
that he insisted, with the result
that she was shocked and I'M
nerved."
1t happened that there were per-
sons on the car, it is claimed, who
knew Mrs. Cathey, and they cor
rected the alleged mistake before
the conductors order could be exc
cuted.
Mrs. Cathey is memphis So
ciety leader who conducts a
course of subscription concerts
each season.

WOMEN RAISE
FUND FUR COLORED
BACHELORS

Paris, June 7.-Surely there are
no more kind hearted people in the
world than Parisians. They make
hobby of charity, and as their
pocketbooks are not always as ca
pacious as their hearts, they are
continually arranging charity ba-
zaars to raise money for all sorts
of purposes. But the one recent
ly given is probably the most Or
iginal of them all. 1t was organ
lied under the patronage of the
charming Comtesse d'Eu, and the
amount of $4,000 francs was raised
for the wonderful purpose of enab-
ling ITO bachelors of the dark con-
tinent to WOO and wed the same
number of blackshinned maids.
The result was proclaimed amid
thunders of applause at the general
assembly of the French Anti Slav-
cry Society, president over by M.
LIE Myre de villers.
This gentlemen, who has played
an extremely active part in
Frances colonial expansion, ex-
planned to his delighted audience
that the society had, in the past
eighteen months, been holding an
extensive investigation into the
matrimonial customs of the Ne
groes, as a result of which it had
ascertained that only men who had
money enough to purchase wives
were able to wed, and that as it
took them many years to save up
the necessary sum, they we're be-
coming elderly when they entered
the marriage state. AS for their
juniors, they naturally had to re-
main single until they had OBJ
tanned the wherewithal, and even
when they had won wife, they
had her only "by precarious til
tle," as her canny parents took ad-
vantage of the faintest pretext to
ask for more money.
The tender hearts of the men,
bers of the society had been melt
ed by the discovery that the course
of true love did not run smooth
even in those primitive regions, so
they decided to facilitate wedlook
among young Negro couples by
advancing to each prospective
bridegroom 200 francs, which
would be paid back in five years
at the rate of forty francs per an
mum. The $4,000 francs will thus
be devoted to the setting up of ITO
Negro households, by the way of
start, pending the receipt of 9TH
er generous donations. 1t is to he
hoped that the parents Of those
prospective brides will not hear of
this marvellous stroke of good luck
as, being already noted for their
grasping proclivities, they may be
tempted to double the figure and
now anti-slavery. The wife's
troubles often begin with her un-
ion, and she is usually bond-wo-
man in every sense of the word.
The old saying that charity begins
at home seems to have been rath-
er overlooked on this occasion.

the International Hotel Walters
Union.
Negro walters throughout the
country are showing more than
ordinary concern in the proposed
conference of colored walters, al
though there is difference of
opinion as to what lines should be
followed in organizing.-New
York Age,
The Colorado statesman., 1912-06-22
.COlOredM MenTo
Give UpP Positions

There is very little likelihood
that in the future colored walters
will be employed by the Leading
eating places of New York in large
numbers. In fact, within the next
week or ten days it is hig hly prob
able that there will not be a single
colored man carrying tray in any
of the first class hotels or restau-
rants in Manhattan.
At present there are about one
hundred walters working in the
best hotels, chiefly at the Plaza,
Breslin and Marseiles. Their exit
is expected to take place within a
few days as the striking whites are
giving in and each day finds many
returning to work. The hotel
managers, while making some of
the concessions asked, have fatty
refused to recognize the Internal
ional Hotel Walters Union.
The colored walters at present
employed could hold their jobs if
they desired. They have not been
notified that their services would
not be needed much longer. To
the contrary they have been told
they could remain as long as they
pleased if their work was satisfac-
tory, At the Hotel Breslin the
entire crew is composed of colored
men and the management has in
formed them that there was no dis
position to make a change unless
they wanted to leave.
1t is claimed by those familiar
with conditions that the colored
walters working at the Plaza and
other hotels will soon give up
their jobs because they can find
more profitable situations during
the summer at the various resorts
throughout the country. Since
the colored men were installed in
the white eating places they have
been paid at rate of So day
working seven days. together with
their board and lodging. When
the white walters suruck they were
only getting S25 month and
board, and protested against the
quality of food they were compell-
ed to eat.
With the strike over, which will
be matter of few days only, the
colored walters will be offered $50
a month, which is at a rate Of $50
less than what they have been re-
ceiving during the strike. They
do not think they would profit by
working in New York at $50
month and tips, when they can go
to a summer resort where business
will be good and make $500 dur
ing the season.
1t was given out Wednesday at
the headquarters of the Head and
Side Walters Association in 53d
street that the colored walters do
not contemplate affiliating with

WIN VICTORY
UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT
DECIDES IN FAVOR OF NEGROES

Chief Justice Whites decision,
which was rendered Monday, in
which it was held that the Negro
knights of Pythis of Georgia have
the right to use the name and en-
blems of the order, is regarded as
one of the most important decis-
ions ever handed down by the
United States Supreme Court rel
ative to the rights of fraternal Or
ganizstion.
In deciding the case in favor of
the coiored Knight of Pythias all
the members of the Uuited States
Supreme Court concurred with
Chief Justice White except JUS
tice Holmes and Lurton, who dis
sented.
This decision is far-reaching in
its effect, as there has been a gen.
eral movemnet throughout the
Southern States to restrain Ne.
gro societies from using the names
and emblems also used by white
orders Now the white organiza-
tions will be compelled to give up
their fight in view of the stand by
the Supreme Court.
The news that the colored Pyth.
ians of Georgia had won their case
in the highest court of the land
has been received with great en-
thuism by the Negro members of
the order throughout the country.
Since the ruling in the case of the
colored Elks, which was decided
against them a few days ago by
the New York Court of Appeals,
the colored Pythians have been
somewhat apprehensive,
The position taken by the Uni
ted Supreme Court is different
from the Supreme Court of Georg-
la, which affirmed the judgment of
the lower court enjoining the col
ored knights of Pythias of Geor-
gia from using the name of Pyth-
ian OF the Pythian emblems and
insignia or any imitation of the
parent order of that name which
has white membership exclusive
ly.
The Georgia court based its de-
oision on the rules of law which
protect the public against unfair
trade methods. Justice Holmes
and Justice Lurton dissented
Chief Justice White held that
there was no evidence to show that
the colored lodges had injured
their white namesakes in any way,
and inasmuch as the Negroes had
maintained their organizati IN
without complaint from the whites
for more than twenty years, their
membership having attained 30O,-
600, the white lodges were guilty
of laches and could not be heard
to complain in a court of equity
under such circumstances.
