CONTRASTING NORTH AND
SOUTH

II. &. Barrow. a colored man
living in New Iberia. La. recent
II came North as delegate Of a
fraternaI society, and in a very
well written letter TO The Enter
prise. his home paper. he makes
an interesting comparison Of the
treatment received by his race in
the two sections of the country.
His first generalization is that
in the North The negro with mon
ey to spend is permitted to go
for that particular pudpoEe
wherever white man can, but
his opportunities for earning
money are far less than in the
South. practically all Sorts OF
EMPLOYMENT being closed to him
except those which nobody else
wants. OF these statements,
neither would go far toward es-
tablishing for this observer a
reputation for accuracy. In spite
of our anti discrimination laws
and our promises Of equal rights
and privileges for all, chance OF
inclination must have strangely
favored Barrow if he did not find
here many places where his mon
ev world not buy a welcome FOR
him-places whence, in practice
if not in theory, he would be ex-
simply because of his
skin and regardless of his be-
havior.
Concerning the industrial ban
on negroes in the North of course,
he is more nearly right, though
even in that he exaggerates re-
atty a little. all the professions
being open, after fashion. to the
negro. his Punishment
from many of the skilled trades
being more a matter Of union
rules and comparative compel
nncy. than of racial prejudice on
the part of cbnployersl That
high class colored mechanics and
artisans are far more numerous
IN the South than in the North,
rs Barrow says. is doubtless true,
md he is fully justified in telling
,rch men. as he does. to stay
where they are. but he ignores
he possibility that here, too.
heir experiences would be diff
erent from what are. anywhere. !,

With Northern friend. and when

from the friends dis

hat the Representative had no

MANY USES FOR GRAPE
SOME SUGGESTIONS FOR LOVERS
OF THAT FRUIT.
Made Into catsup IL IL a Welcome
Addition to the Winter Menu
Recipe for Unfermented Juice
MarmaIade and Salad.

two and a half pounds Of sugar, one
tablespoonful of aIlspice, one of pep
per, one of cinnamon, one of cloves,
half tablespoonful of salt and a pint
OF vinegar. Boil slowly until thick
and smooth, then bottle.
Grape Jelly Without Water-Select
perfectly clean Concord grapes; strip
them from the stems into a clean, dry
preserving or jelly kettle; mash with
a wooden potaro-masher while they
neat. Keep them to the boiling point
for four hours, uncovered, stirring and
MASKING them every now and then.
Then allow to boil gently for another
hour. Keep uncovered and stir fire.
quently to prevent burning. Then set
aside and let cool slightly. Pour into
cheescloth strainers, a little in each
one, and let drain over night Then
measure the Juice and proceed as
usual.
unfermented Grape Julee.-Take
the following proportion OF grapes.
sugar and water: Fifteen cups of Con-
cord grapes stripped from the stems,
nine cupfuls of water and three cup
fuls Of sugar. Mash the grapes and put
them into the preserving kettle with
five cupfuls of water. Let boil gently
until soft; then strain of clear. Re-
turn seeds and skins to the kettle, add
remaining four cupfuls and cook until
seeds are clear from pulp. Strain
this Juice through cheescloth and add
to the first strained. Put into the ket-
tie over the fire and add the three cup
fuls of sugar. Bring to boiling point

Ripe Grape MarmaIade.-Take four
pounds of grapes, four pounds Of gran
ulated sugar. one pound Of stoned
raisins, chopped fine; two oranges,
seeded and chopped with yellow rind
of one. Cook the fruit half an hour.
add the sugar and boil ten minutes
longer. Pour into jelly glasses or mar
malade jars and seal up.
Grape SaIad.-Remove the skins
from large, white California grapes
and cut them In halves to remove
seeds. Blanch an equal quantity Of
English walnuts or pecans and shave
In strips. Remove the skin and all
the white fiber from several small,
rather tart oranges, cut In rather
thick slices, then into strips, removing
the seeds. Grapefruit may be substi-
tu.Sd for the orange. Dress each sepa-
rately with oil and lemon Juice sea-
soned with little paprika. To give
a dainty finishing touch, sprinkle few
chopped candied cherries or pistachio
nuts over the top. II you want some
thing little out Of the ordinary, mix
the salad with a cream mayonnaise, In
which blend little almond paste, or
sprinkle fresh grated cocoanut over
the salad.

THEN HE ABANDONED VISIT
Missionary Found Out Why He Was
Being Sent as Messenger to
Cannlbal King.

Jack London, preparing to embark
on another cruise around the world,
told in Santa Barbara of the strange
experiences of his last cruise.
But we had no such hairbreadth
escapes as that of a missionary we
met in Samoa" he said. This good
fellow was preaching in one of the
islands in which cannibalism is prac-
ticed. While trying vainly to make
converts he was captured by a canni-
bal king. To his surprise, he was i'm
mediately released. His release, how
ever, was made on the condition that
he carry a small sealed packet to a
neighboring king.
The missionary was so grateful that,
meeting Unexpectedly detachment Of
English sailors, he refused to accom-
pany them to safer territory. The
sealed packet from his benefactor
would be delivered as he had prom
ised. But an officer in the midst Of
the discussion opened the packet.
Therein, besides a number of pun
gent little onions, was a letter con-
tanning these simple but significant
words:
