Special Auditors Find Extra Horses.
Denver.-The committee of three

up on the horses purchased for the
use of the state troops in the Trini

stead of failing to account for the 27O

Well worth consideration is this ex-
tract from an editorial in the Chicago
Record-H erald:
"The problem is to educate these
grown-up children into mental and
moral maturity. That is no easy
task. Rather it is an arduous effort
to which many life must be given
and it will never be helped along by
oratory, but only by the patient teach
ing of line upon line, precept upon
precept, till the fundamentals of hon
esty, thrift, thoroughness and keeping
ones word have been drilled into
their understanding and worked out
by them in practise. To that end such
a humble and patient propaganda as
Booker Washington's, aiming to make
the blacks into well-behaved citizens
and good workers, honest and reliable,
is worth all the oratory of Demos
themes and Cicero and Alexander l..
jackson combined"

The Southern negro is working out
his own salvation, not in terms of poll
tics, not in terms Of formal education,
but in terms of property ownership;
and mainly in terms of land in the
rural regions. He is doing this with
out let or hindrance in the South,
largely aside from the awareness of
the whites, largely because of their in
difference, but even more largely with
the sympathy and help of his white
friends and neighbors. He is lifting
himself by tugging at his own boot
straps, figure commonly used to in
dicate an impossible something; but
in civilization, as in education, 1t is the
only possible means of elevation.
The negro is emerging from Jungle
ism and winning civilization mainly
and necessarily by his own efforts. His
progress every inch of the way is
marked by struggle-struggle within
himself for mastery over himself and
struggle outward, surrounding circum-
stances.
The negro problem will not be
solved by editorials, creeds or stat
utes; by conferences, congresses or
assemblies; by pride, prejudice or pas
sion The development of the negro
can be stimulated, safeguarded and di-
rected wisely and beneficently. The
stream of tendencies can be kept clear
of injustice and cruelty, brutality and
inhumanity, and it will be 80 If we
have any Christianity worth the name.

A final word on the subject of our
personal responsibility as an executive
council to the churches seems to be
needed, says a correspondent OF the
Standard. 1t has been suggested that
the executive council should ignore all
organizations among the churches and
deal directly with local churches. In
many cases that may be the fair and
proper way to operate, but | am firmly
convinced that the experiences OF the
executive council in its work as well
as the present needs of the negro
churches only tend to emphasize the
advisability of using our friendly or
fees to secure among the negro
churches such an organization OF
forces as will win the respect and the
regard of possible benefactors ana
make it possible for US to do through
them as a group force, what we are
confident that we could do less salts
factorily IL we dealt with them sepa-
rately and ignored that important and
essential relationship which they have
with one another.

WOMEN OF FASHION TURN TO
VELVET FOR EVENING GOWNS

Several women have ordered in the
fashionable shops plain, fat, semi-fit-
ting bodices in bleu derol velvet, but
toning at the back, cut square at the
neck, made with long sleeves. Their
skirts are in tulle to match, over white,
yellow or pink taffeta. Some of these
skirts will be founced, others pleated,
some caught at the knee with an en-
broidered silk rose. Most of the bod
ices will have a wired tulle collar.
Fashinable anal carnations of tulle
and velvet are male to suit the aver
age slim figure of the moment. In
some cases the cut of the velvet bod
ice, excepting for the color, recalls the
style of garment worn by Mephisto-
piles in the classical operate produc-
tons. And this curious comparison
becomes all the more striking by a
kind of cap and aigrette accompany
ing the toilet.
The cap in question is also in bleu
deroi velvet 1t fits the head, is very
much tilted to one side, and has d
brim in straw to match, couple Of
inches wide. This turned back width
of straw connects a couple of paradise
aigrets in the same shade of blue and
placed Mephisto fashion above the
forehead.

How shall l tell my heart
How beautiful thou art,
When my poor eyes are blind
With beauty but OWNED
In part?
How shall l dare confess
Thine utter loneliness;
Since, haply, Love may hear
And wound me with his dear
Distress?
My heart is like chrysalis
In balmy winds aswing,
That patiently awaits the kiss
of Spring.
My hopes are like the life deep hid
In that dark, silent swing,
Impatient for they kiss to bid
Them wing.
My love is like the butterfly,
Aglow with every hue,
Enamored of the earth, the sky,
And you.

What of the Future Crop.

Thu story OF fertility has always
been the same. In the beginning Ia
a period OF suppc sedly inexhaustible
fertility. Then comes steady de.
crease In crop production, a period OF
poverty, and finally long hard struG
gle to regain that which has been
wasted. All the older countries have
experienced these stages. Many Of
them, notably England and Germany
have lately been going through the
last stage and now have their farms
up to their original fertility. New
England is now In the midst of the
disheartening up hill pull. The south
Is Just beginning 1t.
Some people in Idaho still maintain
that our soils are inexhaustible, but
most people can easily see the steady
decline. We have the great advant.
age Of the experience of the older
sections. VIII we profit by it? Why
not maintain our fertility and forego
the task OF replacing a stolen hertz
age. Why not keep our soil fertile
and avoid the days Of poverty?
There are several ways we can set
about this. Many of US are not yet
willing to invest In commercial fer
tihzers, and, indeed, 1t may be even
inadvisable. However, there are
some simple practices which are fun
damental, and which are too often
neglected. The saving of manure
and refuse Ia one of these. Harvest
time sees the pleasant evenings light
