HOWARD UNIVERSITY GETS
RARE COLLECTION OF BOOKS
Messrs. Cromwell and Moorland Do
nate Volumes Of Great Value.

Washington.-HOwar university's In
terest in our race is not confined mere
~ to the classrooms within its stately
buildings, but is reaching out into the
world ut large for educational matter
with which to give its student body
the best available information con-
cerning the literary achievements of
the race. The university has recently
begun the collection of literature rec
ords and documents relating to the
Negro race in America. The institu
ton has In its possession now what is
considered an important collection of
rare books and pamphlets with which
to form what is to be known in the fu-
ture as The Negro Americana"

W. Cromwell. secretary Of the Amer
lean Negro academy and author Of the
new book entitled 1.-The Negro In
American History" placed at the dis
posal Of Howard the Cathcart clip
pings many years ago. These clip
pings cover the civil war and recon
struction period. They consist of
scores of volumes touching the vari-
Gus phases of that period and the Ne
gro's relation to the changes incident to
his well being during that time.
The Moorland collection is the lar
gest and most significant contribution
to the new undertaking. DR.. J. E.
MOorland. international secretary Of
the Young Mems Christian association.
has been a collector of rare and curl
GUS books in this field during the past
quarter of century and has gathered
up collection of several thousand
titles. DR.. Moorland only recently
turned this collection over to Howard
university. of which he is an alumnus
and trustee. -
During the past forty years the insti-
tuition has accumulated books. PAM
phlets. documents and other data in
this field. all of which will now be as
seml,Ied and installed along with these
several collections under the head Of
Negro Americana"
The university expects at the open
ing of the next school term to esta blish
a chair OF sociology. which shall be de-
voted to research in the field of Negro
development as well as to practical
lines Of remedial endeavor. This II
brrry is expected to he of broad ma
tionai service. Such II collection mt

WONDERFUL GROWTH OF
LIQUOR LEGISLATION

The largest and most important
part of our liquor legislation, statu-
tory and judicial, has been created
within a comparatively recent pes
Rod. Thus the output of liquor law
in the past forty years is more than
all such law produced in the pre-
vious 600 years; that is. from the
first brief reference to one measure
of wine and ale in Magma Charta, in
1915, down to the year 1875. The
authors of a recent work on intoxi-
eating liquors, which contained
nearly $4,000 citations, state that
more cases have been reported since
1892 than had been reported pre-
viously thereto in all English-speak-
ing countries.-[Case and Com
ment.

Somebody poisoned my dog to-day,
Though he never did any one Ill,
And so he is through with his ca

And his wagglety tail is still.

Along at my side to jog
And--I don't care If my eyes are
dim
Somebody poisoned my dogl
He was homely. know, as dog
could be,
And only a mongrel, too;
But loved the old fellow and he
loved me
AS people and dogs may do,
Nothing on earth could disturb his
trust
Or his love and his faith befog,
And now he lies here at my feet, in
the dust
Somebody poisoned my dog!
He crawled to my side and licked
my hand,
And then with gasp he died;
And-though some people can't un-
derstand-

For it isn't funny to lose a friend
From off of this. earthly cog,
And he was loyal unto the end
Somebody poisoned my dogi

done
This poor old fellow harm;
But here he lies-his race is run
Though his body's still soft and
warm.
My life is lived on a peaceful plan,
My pace is a quiet jog,
Butt wish l could find the snake
of a man
Who poisoned my faithful dog.

The plan seems to be good one

confined to that State alone. Any
prosperous rural community can
benefit itself If its energetic men
and women will help to spread the

and more prosperous than they are
at present. Let our readers try the
North Dakota plan. Write to your
friends, tell them what you are do
ing and what you mean to do; point
out to them that farming to-day is
not what it was 40, 80 or even ten
years ago. Pass a good thing along.
You will be doing your friends a ia

THE FOLLY OF CREATING
USELESS COMMISSIONS

All our States and the Federal
Government suffer from the mania
of creating useless commissions.
Millions of dollars annually are
wasted on gathering information
which is buried upon dusty shelves
and never once consulted. Each Leg
islature ignores the commission
work of every preceding one. Each
Congress goes upon the assumption
that whatever a previous Congress
did was of no human benefit.
So every new Congress and every
Legislature sets out to create COM
missions and pile up new taxes to
pay for them. 1t is one of the ag-
gravated forms of Governmental
waste. 1t is a species of extrava-
gance no individual and no company
could practice and escape bankrupt
cy. All political parties are equally
guilty of this commission folly.
Hence it may be a good thing
if President Wilson shall be able to
create the great work of a perma-
nent tariff board. That there should
be a tariff board that never expires
and whose findings every Congress
could accept without question, can
admit of no denial.
This board should have upon it
only men of United States Supreme
Court caliber, and that's the only
type of men who should ever sit
upon the Trade Commission. Be-
sides, If the Trade Commission
should devote much of its time to
gathering facts upon which to base
tariff laws, it would keep it from
regime of meddling which the coun-
try can we'll get along without

into this Office and stopped his paper
because he said II was always print
ing a lot of things about the same
people and he said he was sick of
it. Now when something goes wrong
with the country the Government
appoints a commission to investi-
gate and find out what is the mat
ter. and the first thing a commission
investigates is the man who made
the holler to see If the holler was
reasonable holler. So We appointed
a commission consisting of ourselves
TO investigate this man. We just
followed the mans career ever since
we knew him. The first thing that
happened to that man was that he
was born. but he had nothing TO do
with IL. However. we mentioned

They Get From 500 To
S24O a Year.
VALUE OF ITS SCHOOLHOUSES
Averages LOw-Many Of the
Log Cabin Type Are
Now Used.
EXPENDITURES MUCH TOO LOW

Washington, April 30.-Salaries
paid to school teachers in the noun
tain region of Kentucky are very
small, according to a report just is
sued by the Federal Bureau of Ed
ucation. The compiler of the report
is Norman Frost, whose experience
in connection with Berea College at
Berea, KY, has given him recogni-
ton as an authority on education
in the Appalachian Mountains.
His report shows that in one
mountain county in Kentucky the
average salaries paid to teachers
are from $500 to $240 year. In
seven counties the average is $40
to $3.50. In ten counties the aver
age is $500 to $3.50; in seven, $3.50
to $500; in three, $500 to $500; in
in two, $500 to $3.50, and in one,
$500 to $3.50, this being the high
water mark.
The average value of school
buildings in the Kentucky noun
tain region is correspondingly low.
In one county the average value of
school buildings is less than 500.
In eight it is from $500 to $500;
in seven, from $500 to $500; in six,
from $500 to $500; in five, from
$500 to $500; in two, from $500
to $500, and in one, from $500 to
5000.
There are still many school
buildings of the log cabin type,
without glass in the windows and
with homemade benches. The an
nual expenditure per child in ten
of the Kentucky mountain counties
is less than IS and in II other
counties it is between So and Sc.
1.-The expenditure for education
is much less than it should be"
says the report. Nowhere is it as
much as the people can afford. Even
where rates of taxation are high the
valuation of property is often so
low as to make the tax on actual
values very low.
Even with the expenses as low
as they are it is still true that many
of the teachers do not receive sal
airy large enough to support them
for the entire year. This means
that they must work at something
else, and if they have ability enough
TO succeed at this other work, they
soon stop teaching"

Postage Stamps.

The American public consumes
40,O0O,0O0 postage stamps per day.
BY the ordinary methods of printing
postage stamps this process costs the
Government a tremendous sum an
nually. By the invention of one
machine by the officials of the bu-
reau of engraving and printing the
cost of manufacturing stamps has
been reduced 81 per cent. The new
stamp machine eliminates nineteen
of the operators in making stamps,
goes through twenty-one different
operations of its own and turns out
1000 complete stamps per minute
and 100000 in a ten-hour day.
