The Colorado statesman. [volume] (Denver, Colo.) 1895-1961, 1915-08-14

Colored America on behalf Of
Colored Colorado, if you please, in
justification of the immense aid
and noble help rendered the race
by grand white citizenry, sub
mits it has won praise in almost
every line of human endeavor, pri-
vate and public. These things, |
take it, indicate the total possibili-
ties of the race in America and in
Colorado.
Now following up our argument,
we will touch briefly upon the sup
posed hurt to our race because of
political activity. Such activity
has added to our welfare in the way
of wealth. 1t has given the race a
touch of honor and distinction by
placing thousands in positions of
trust and profit. 1t has benefited,
indirectly, our schools and church
es. 1t has developed the civic gen
ius of men like Elliott, Bruce,
Lyons, Vernon, Langston, White,
Dancy, Washington, Douglass and
our beloved-the Late Bishop
Grant and a host of younger men.
Civic, governmental or political
activity-call it what you may
without it we shall reap harvest
of citizenship depression, civic
stagnation, discrimination and dis
franchisement; for the champions
of our cause, many of whom are
white people, will have just cause
to say, "if you will will help your
selves, neither will we."
As long as it shall be true that
courts, at times, are compelled to
surrender to mob rule; as long as it
shall be true that law, at times,
shall give way to anarchy, we must
find ourselves enlisted for civic
and political righteousness for
others, if not for ourselves.
1t was the civic and political ac-
tivity Of Gentle as well as of Jew
in the Frank case that created a
spirit of feeling so noble, grand
and powerful that the judgment of
a mob surrounded court, a judg-
ment locked, bound and affirmed
by successive Supreme Courts de-
cisions was tempered with the
equality of mercy" and for once
again-the will of a race-preJudiced
mob was seen, was met, was con-
ouered. The supreme law OF this
land is Noble Sentiment the eter-
nal will of Noble People
With the close of the Frank
case this twentieth century wit
messed another blow struck for
freedom, and through this broad
worlds "aching breast ran a thrill

Columbus, Ohio. Augrst q.
The Supreme Lodge Entertain
ment Committee having charge of
arrangements for entertaining the
Supreme Lodge Colored K. P's, has
been somewhat handicapped by the
failure of white business men and
merchants to give promised assis-
tance. The breweries which had
promised to contribute 81 800, on
ly contributed $50. The street
railway company contributed but
$50 The white merchants not on
ly did not contribute literally for
expenses, but refused to advertise
in the official programme Even
the white Chamber of Commerce
of which much was expected, con-
tributed less than $780, In spite
of the failure of the whites of this
city to give the aid promised, and
expected, Chairman Barcus and
his committee have gone ahead
and succeeded we'll in perfecting
all arrangements for the entertain
ment of memhers and visitors to
the Supreme Lodge meeting.

The Shnnc of The Hcnd.

The question whether big heads are
an indication Of Cleverness Is one
which has aroused not little discus
sion at various times. The general
opinion seems TO be that unusual de-
velOpment of the cranium means Il
bigger brain, which leads 10 greater
cleverness. According to phenologi-
cal experts, however, 1t does not
necessarily follow that big head
and big brain indicate intellectual
endowment
Provided all other conditions are
equal the boy with the largest head
has the greatest intellectual capacity,
but If one Of the conditions be lack
ing-for instance if boy has rela-
lively greater development In the
back OF the head than in front
then he with the smaller brain may
be the more intellectual Of the two
The intellectual organs, from the
size and culture Of which intelligence
is derived, lie in the anterior or
frontal part of the brain. The con-
sequence is that the boy with the
smaller anterior and much larger pos
terror organs, /. e.. those which lie at
the back Of the head resulting in
larger development OF the Uranium,
Will have less appetite for intellectual
work than the boy with less pOsteriOr
and larger anterior organs.
That is 10 say boy may have a
comparatively small head and yet be
more intelligent than other boys with
larger heads and bigger brain devel
Opment intellectually, indeed. may
be said % vary In power and activity
according not so much to the size Of
the head as the relative size Of its
various parts-by far the most i'm
portant factor in estimating a boys
CleVeTneSs
Some interesting facts on this sub
ject are given by James Webb, an
English schoOlmaster. who has been
for a number Of years examining and
measuring boys heads with view Of
arriving at some conclusive proof OF
their intelligence He finds that. con

Mems heads. according 10 Mr..
Webb, are quarter of an inch wider
all around than boys heads, and he
arrives at the conclusion that from
to 10 years Of age the head grows
one inch in circumference.
As an illustration of the argument
that the shape OF a boys head has
a great bearing on his intellectual
capacity, Mr. Webb mentions the case
Of certain boy, whom we viii refer
10 as a, whose head at II years Of
age was seven inches long. The head
Of another boy. B, at years Of age,
was seven and a fourth inches long.

Fnelish Women Criticlled.

The levity of our women, apart
from those who are engaged in sick
nursing and charitable works, and who
are happily numerous, is almost un-
beheyabl5. Their outrageous, not to
say positively crazy, new fashions in
dress, their dinner dances" at London
restaurants, their bridge parties and
their might clubs make one think Of
the warning words Of the prophet
Isaiah;
Rise up, ye women that are at ease;
hear my voice, ye careless daughters;
give ear unto my speech. Many days
and years shall ye be troubled, ye
careless women; for the vintage shall
fail the gathering shall not COme.'
Every woman should at this present
moment be on the alert eager, en-
thusiaslic and ready TO inspire, even TO
command the youth of the rising gen
Grafton; and among other duties fall
ing to their lot is distinctly that Of
teaching their own boys, and other
women's boys, too, the inestimable
value of service in the navy.-Marie

SUMMER SKEPTICS
READ THIS ABOUT
BULLET ANT HILL

Here's one for Teddy Roosevelt and
other skeptics.
Seven pounds of small shot was
picked up by several small boys on
Archer yesterday between Main and
Boston. The shot was all piled on an
ant hill about two feet from the curb
on the north side Of the street. The
boys found the ant hill about thirty
feet from the west side of the alley
Ants always build up a hill around
the outside Of their underground hole.
but usually small pebbles and sand
serve for this purpose.
Where the shot came from is not
known, but it was there. But it is
not there now for the boys wrecked

And yesterday was a hot day. too.
