Bergfield, German scientist, ad-
vances a new theory for the variety of
human color or pigmentation. We
quote him from Harper's Weekly;
"Bergfield, the German investigator,
holds the view that the pigmenta-
ton OF the races is due to feeding.
He points out that in the animal world
color is often determined by food.
and he contends that by chemical pro-
cess the same results are shown in the
different human faces. According to
this theory, the original man was
black, since his chief diet must have
been vegetarian. Fruit and vegeta-
bles contain manganates that ally
themselves with iron, constituting
dark brown combination. Bergfeld
states that negroes who add meat and
milk to their vegetable fare are never
as dark as those Negroes who eat
only vegetables. Indians are red, 1t
appears, because they have absorbed
for generations haemoglobin, the red
substance in the blood of animals
killed for food. Mongols are yellow
by reason of the fact that they are
descended from dark fruit eating races
who penetrated into the plains of
Asia, became shepherds and lived to
a great extent on milk, which contains
chlorine and bleaching effect. Caucas-
ians were another branch who became
still whittier by adding salt to their die
tary. Common salt is a strong chlor-
ide and powerful agent in bleaching
the skin. The effect can be seen, 1t
is declared, in case Of children who
have been reared on white" diet
ary. They are never SO black as
their kindred who have not abandoned
vegetarianism."
Professor Bergfelds theory is
a good deal more reasonable than that
of some who have given out their vi
cious opinion that the Negroes color
is the curse of God placed upon Cain.
the ancestor of Ham, for the killing
of his brother Abel. Bergfield says
it is not the curse of God, but the re-
suit of what we have been eating.
Africans are largely vegetarian in the
food they live upon. Professor Berg
field says this produced our racial
color.

We picked this up from somewhere.
Read it.: AN old colored man with
an old gray mule hitched to a ram
shackle wagon stood on the incline of
Capitol Hill in Washington, D. c.,
during one of the worst sleet storms
in January. The old man huddled in,
his rabbit skin cap shivering. The
mule was trembling with the cold. A
man waiting for a belated street car
was attracted by the strange outfit
and wondered, as time went on and
the colored man made no effort to
depart, what allied the old fellow.
Finally he walked over and said:
Why don't you move on, uncle?
The old darky pointed a trembling
finger at his team and replied:
"'Cause dis yere mule won't go less
whistle at him, an it's SO cold l
cyarn't whistle" Now If whistling
is what our situation in so many
places, in so many things. really
needs, let's pucker up and have some
lively Negro whistling all along our
lines. If that's not the thing needed.
let's find out what is the need and
keep on trying till our balky team
does start off and keep going.

In Georgia the business element of
Negroes are proving up some import

The thing which should concern you
most is what you are doing to help
make your community better and
brighter. You need not worry over
what people think of you, orsay about
you, but you ought to be greatly con-
cerned about what you do and what
you leave undone in making up the
record OF life.-The Torch Light.

The pot can boil strong where there
is a nice little vegetable garden in
the rear of the premises. The ground
is there, the sun is now smiling af-
fectionately upon the earth; seeds are
cheap; hoe costs but little. Why
not soon have on your spirit pot
which boils right? Industry can eat
out of good pot; but sloth must re-
main eating out of skillet in the
coming hot weather. Do make a gar
den. You will feel like you are some
body.

Citizens must be as big as their age.
1t is no time for small and ignorant
men with blind prejudices. In no age
could a demagogue do SO much dam
age with excitable and unthinking
men as now, for in no other genera
ton have there been such mighty In
terests to ruin. One can smash vast
values in a short time. With the ire
mendous increase of our country in
everything that contributes to civiliza-
tion Of the world, with our commerce
and trade seeking all nations, with
our institutions and asylums of all
people, with values untold in mead
ows and mines and ten thousand use
full arts, and with millions coming into
every decade of our population, with
problems that appeal to the supreme
wisdom of the strongest minds re-en-
forced by the loftiest thinking of all
ages, the obligation laid upon the
plain, everyday citizen is tremendous,
and it is no time for the ranting So
cialist, without sense of proportion or
appreciation of the new forces of this
mighty era. He must make way for
vast movements and not center his
thought upon petty measures.-Chan-
cellor James r. Day, in Leslies.

We cannot escape the cheerful con-
viction that there may be in the suf

to permit a Negro woman to be

AS to the right sort of teachers in
our public schools, there is much
which belongs to the field of discus.
sion among the Negro masses. There
was time when Negro teacher in
any sort of school was not confined to
his or her school room; but did much
of what is now being called ''exten-
sion work" At any and at every point
of the community life, where there
was likelihood of doing good in the
way of giving enlightenment and pro-
gressiveness to the people. old and
young, schoolgoing and non-school-go-
ing, there the teacher was to be found
We found it SO when, in our youth,
we taught in our native Georgia and
found it SO when later we taught in
Mississippi and still later (and that
has not been SO long ago), when we
were officially connected with educa-
tional work in louisiana teach
er was an all-'round helper and work
er. They did not feel that they had
come fully up to the functions of a
good teacher if they confined them
selves simply to their class room
work. Whence this Withdrawing and
withholding from the participation of
uplifting, which teachers of other
days were wont to read into their GER
tificates? Suppose our pedagogical
friends do the first thinking over this
question. Later let the communities
take it up and reset matters again af-
ter that good old rule.

Reward for Lacy's Capture

Governor O'Neal has increased the
offer of a reward for the capture of
Theodore Lacy, who ran away car
rying presumptively 100000 in his
grip of the states money. He either
carried away about that sum, or some
one else got some of it before he left
the capital for parts unknown.
All clues, it seems, have failed,
and Lacy is as thoroughly lost as ex-
Treasurer Vincent was until the lat
ter came in years later and surren-
dered himself. Lacy may not prove
as sentimental as Vincent did, and the
offer of larger reward is therefore
wholly justified. 1t is the plain duty
of the state to find Lacy, and Cover
nor O'Neal fully appreciates the i'm.
portance of this duty. A reward oi
finding the culprit is admittedly diff
ficult. The clues are all fruitless and
Lacy is no doubt disbursing Tho
states money rapidly.

Revision and Its Enemies

Fair, honest and intelligent analysis
of the Underwood bill is not to be
feared. It is a we'll balanced and rea-
sonable revision in which all reason
BILE factors of cost and wages have
been considered. 1t keeps in mind the
needs of 1O0,0O0,O00 consumers, and
fair test of it in any just manner is
not feared and is really invited 1t
aims to take all graft out of the
tariff, and to leave the government
in position to secure considerable
revision-not quite enough revenue
perhaps, but nearly enough. We need
system of direct taxes anyway of a
supplementary nature in order to
teach the people the need of economy
in public expenditures.
The one thing to be dreaded in tar
iff legislation is the gumshoe combi-
nations of tariff beneficiaries. They
are at work in many places today try
ing to form combinations with this or
that interest in order to save their
particular graft from repeal. 1t is
the grafters against the people or
consumers, and the grafters are on
the spot well supplied with money and
skilled agents.
Well, the battle must go on to a
finish. Oscar Underwood is fighting
the battle of the people, and Presi-
dent Wilson is supporting him in
every reasonable way, and the hope
is that they will win. But all sorts
of interests will rise up to make the
way to success difficult and full of
brambles. Every tariff CRATER is
alert and active, and the consumer
has no one to gumshoe for him. He
must depend alone upon his represen-
tatives in Congress, in the House and
in the Senate. 1t is an unequal battle
always, but the democratic party
spoke out bravely at Baltimore and
the hour has come to test the value
of those pledges.

IOyDON AND NEW YORK

From the New York World.
London has reached a stage when
the growth of population has nearly
come to an end" says report to the
county council on the decline in taxa
BILE values.
For almost 100 years London had
grown in population more steadily
though less rapidly, than New YORK;
averaging about 20 per cent increase
in each decade. But in 1901 the IN
crease dropped sharply to Z per cent;
and in 1911 in the counfx of London
there was slight decrease. instead
of the predicted increase of per cent.
The International Whitaker. an English
almanac. places New York, with 4,770.-
900 population, at the head OF the
Largest cities in the world" London
second with 4,52s.0O. Both are round
numbers from the census of 1910-191l.
|If the decline has been constant, Lon
don has now about 100000 inhabitants.
New York, IL it's rate of growth re-
mained the same, would have by May
II 5,25000O souls. 1t is credited by the
World Almanac with 5,173,064 on jan
