Pictorial Wash Lists,

Pretty old inventions are our modern
wash lists. The old German house
wife had an odd way Of keeping track
Of the garments she gave out to be
washed. She bad a picture Of each
article and wrote down the number Of
everything opposite to it with q piece
of chalk, which was rubbed out when
the article was returned, to be used
again tho next week. It was really a
pictorial ana perpetual wash list.

Often it is difficult to run the rod
through freshly Numbered sash cur

ing an old glove finger over the end Of
the curtain rod.
Often comparatively new hot water

hole can be mcnded by covering it with
several applications Of court plaster, al

spoke thus: We believe that the
time has come when the General
Conference may safely and wisely
choose a bishop from among our
seventeen hundred ministers of Al
rlcan descent III addition TO the
above OF 1896, the General Confer-
enCe OF 1900 said: I'VE recognize
the need OF such an officer among
the people Of African descent" "
BY assumptions and declarations of
these consecutive General Confer
ences race, kindred tribe and ma
tionality'' have never been in the
way OF having Colored ministers
elected bishops, and when the Cen
eral Conference of 1900 found COL
ored ministers qualified for bishops,
needed for bishops, aud their cleo
ton safe and wise, every barrier to
their election was moved out of the
way, and their election was looked
for. After finding all the above
true for four consecutive General
Conferences, this free vote poi
ICY still keeps the Colored ministers,
out of the rights that the General
Conference says belongs to them.
Knowing their rights and privi-
leges as stated by the several Cen
eral Conferences, knowing their
special need among their own peo-
pie, knowing their free vote pol
icy was still defeating their election
and the aim Of the church, the col
bred members made special efforts
t.lru it to have white ministers
enough to vote with them to elect
b...-- co.sred minister bishop, but
Every time they secured Just enough
to not elect their man. The time
finally came when the free vote
policy could no longer defeat the
righteous purpose Of the church and
deprive the Colorcd ministers of
heir rights as stated by the General
Conference without exposing it's
neanness. SO the talk about and
he expectation Of eleCtina ministers
pt any tribe, race, or nation to the
Fpiscopacy by the free vote
policy ceases, and the General Con-
erenCe begins to reverse itself by
alklng about the need Of such an
Ifflcer among the people of African
escent.' What the General Con-
erence said in 1892 was not a sub
ect OF legislation, but Of free
jOtes is soon to become a subject
f legislation, by which the charac-
er Of bishops is to be changed

ishops instead Of one kind. Since

Golfers Of the Mexico Country club
at Mexico City who were recently
barred from their games for two weeks
because the Carranza and Iapata
forces were using the links for bat

when, on the day after the retreat Of
the soldiers they resumed play.
Notwithstanding that the links had
bcen torn up by shells, all went We'll

the seventh tee had been followed up
to the green. 1t was then that the
man who had the best lie waved to
his companions cXcitedly to hurry on
up. They thought that he had holcd
out with his midiron, but found that
his discomposure was caused by the
fact that he could not use his putter.

Whether the Real Thing or Not,

Sad Truth.

About two months ago l happened

to smoke, and on discovering that

Seeing that he was inclined to talk
I humored him by asking: "How's
that?"
"Why, you see," he replied, "I work
for the city, in the fire department
and we can get ell we want of any
thing like that. Just turn in O requi
sition for them and along they come
But there is one thing we can't get

we can't get a broom. So we take

"But the blankets must cost lot

Sure. Blankets must stand the city
at least dollar and quarter each,
while the best brooms bought in large
quantities would not cost over twen-
ty-fve cents apiece. And one broom
would last longer than half dozen
blankets. But we can't help 1t. Must

Much interest has been felt through

life and as he appears in his comedy,
"The Champion"
Charley Chaplin is one of the most
favorite stars in the moving picture
game today. Since the Chaplin fun
ny pictures started appearing on the
screen the young man has been a
huge hit. He has appeared in great
many well written and staged come

''By the Sea" and ''The Jitney Elope-

His "By the Sea" has especially
been laugh producer. There are
enough roars in that picture to sink
a fleet of battleships, as Chaplin
lover puts it.
Chaplin, with his big feet perform
ing their usual mirth provoking per-
ambulations, wanders down to the
sea shore. There is some wind blow

his head with young cable. He
meets a pedestrian whose hat is sim

BASKETBALL AT X. U.
Jayhawlxers Preparing to Put An
other Knot in Tigers Tail.

Lawrence, Kan, Dec. With the
1915 football season recorded in his
tory, K u, athletes are now begin
ming to look forward to basketball
knot in the Tigers tail. And the
basket tossers have a past record that
will necessitate some hard work this
year if they are to keep up the pace.
Out of the last twelve games played,
only one has been Tiger victory and
that three years ago when the men
made bad connections to Columbia
and the crowd waited in the gynlna
SUM until the Jayhawkers arrived.
Practice has been held twice
week for six weeks but with only
three weeks remaining before the
Christmas vacation Hamilton's men
will have a hard workout every
night in the week. The freshman
squad will face the Varsity on Mon
day and Wednesday while on the
other nights the regulars will be di-
vided into squads to go against each
other.
The season does not start until a
week or two after the big vacation.
No schedule has been arranged yet
but this will be determined at a
meeting of the Missouri Valley Con-
ference officials within two weeks.
The first game is usually held with
Ames and the chances are that the
Kansans will start on the northern in
vasion one week after school is re-
Suned.
