HOME SANITATION
BY MRS. JOSEPH FRAUENTHAL.


 Cleanliness, like charity begins at home. We cannot hope to have clean and sanitary cities and towns unless the homes which make up these cities and towns first teach and practice habits of cleanliness and proper re- gard for the laws of sanitation and hygiene.
 We hear often this query: "Why all this fuss about microbes and germs when in the good old days nothing was known of them and people lived hundred of years longer than they do now.' There is some truth in this. In the days when caves and tents were the fashionable habitations, little or theory. But caves and tents were ex- tremely unsanitary and when they became unlivable people moved to an- other cave or moved the tent further away. They did not keep on living in filth for they were a nomadic peo- pie. Their conditions made them nomadic. But when cities were built and homes became permanent it was not possible to move away from un- sanitary conditions, and so it became necessary that sanitary measures be instituted and enforced. Today we know the relation between unsanitary conditions and disease We all know that sanitation is a very live subject in which all who desire to live well and long should be vitally interested.
 In this work of cleaning up it is right and proper that we clean our own homes first because no woman can throw herself into municipal home cleaning if her own home needs at tention. Real effective home cleaning goes into dark corners and hidden places. Things must be pulled out, shaken, stunned and aired. Do not undertake to freshen up room by repapering without first pulling off every bit of the old soiled paper on the walls, Do not paint without first scrubbing the woodwork clean. Look to your plumbing, your drainage, your well or your cistern. Be sure that all the water that comes into your home is pure.
 There are so many labor saving devices that home cleaning is no long CT the bug-bear that it used to be and so there is less excuse for not having a clean home all the time. In fact have little patience with "home clean ing" as it is generally understood when the man of the house eats off the mantel or at lunch wagon down town and the children are worse than motherless for in the rundown at the-heel woman, with a rag around her head and the fire of war shining in her eyes, they will never recognize the dainty mother they have known.
 Take down your draperies, lace cur tains, and remove heavy rugs, they are hot and uncomfortable for sum- mer. Have them cleaned with vac uum cleaner if possible, if not, use good stiff broom on the rugs, sweeping them carefully on both sides. Open the house Wlde 10 sun ana ar, clean the walls and remember that coal oil is the very finest disinfectant and if used in the water to wash windows and wood work will prove the best cleanser you ever used.
 Get a covered garbage can and have it emptied and disinfected every day or two. If you have no where to put garbage make a hole in the ground and empty in that, quickly covering with earth Annihilate the fly and mosquito. Screen against them using the eighteen mesh screen

THAT NEGROES
WILL Be LOYAL TOU.S.
Prof. Miller Says Hyphen in "Afro-
American" Does Not Mean Di.
vided Patriotism.

That the negro race in America will
serve the United States faithfully and
patriotica1ly- was asserted by Prof.
Kelly Miller of Howard University. In
an address last evening, at meeting
of the Bethel Literary and Historical
at Metropolitan A. NJ. f.
Church. Last night was Howard
night" many members Of the faculty
of the university being in attendance.
Having for his subject Howard Uni
versity Facing the Future" Prof. Mil
ler said. in part:
1.-The American is sometimes
used as a hyphenated designation of
the negro race. But there Is no hyphen
that separates his patriotism from that
of the American people. He is as good
a citizen as the American people will
allow him to be. Howard University
absolutely repudiates the hyphen. and.
with Mr. Roosevelt, would relegate 1t
to the region where it belongs. In the
midst of feverish haste for national
preparedness, no one is wise enough
to predict what patriotic demand may
be made upon this nation in the near
or even in the immediate, future. But
when that day comes, If come it must

did when the nations life was i'm
periled a generation ago. Howard Uni
versity, as the national university of
this race, is proud to contribute its
share In inspiring and perpetuating
this patriotic spirit in the American
youth committed ito its care. Howard
University faces the future with as
surance that it can rely upon the
philanthropy and patriotism of the
American people, to whom it contrib
utes more than it derives"
Earlier in his talk he referred to the
objects of the institution, saying:
The chief aim of Howard University
is to produce an educated and efficient
leadership. The function of the negro
college is to prepare choice youth of
this race to stand in the high places of
intellectual, moral and spiritual author

That the American navy in the next
ten years should reach a plane equal to
the most powerful maintained by any
nation of the world is the opinion of
the navy general board. of which Ad-
miral Dewey is president.
The annual report of the board dis
closes that this decision was reached
in July in answer to propositions set
forth by Secretary Daniels when the
administration decided to enter upon a
campaign of national preparedness.
At the same time the board presented
building program for 1917. in compli-
ance with the Secretary's request for
"a program formulated in the most
definite terms. planned for consistent
and progressive development of this
great defensive arm of the nation"
Details of the boards reply are not
revealed, as subsequently. in October
of this year, the Secretary asked the
board to prepare "a building program
for the navy that will continue over a
period of five years with an expend-
iture of about 100000, 900 each year
for five years on new construction
only" The administrations plan for
the construction of sixteen capital
ships within five years is founded on
the boards answer

BLACK FACE FOUR
GET PIER THIEVES
Disguised as Negroes, Detec-
tivcs Make Captures in
$4,000 RObberles.

-Four detectives, disguised as negro
dockmen, yesterday put an end to the
systematic thieving which in the last
two weeks has robbed the Savannah
Line OF goods valued b. the police at
$4,000.
A group OF laborers on Pier 80 went
on strike on October IL, and the mems
places were taken by twenty negroes,
who the company believed did not know
one another. After few days goods
began 20 disappear, and the officials
notified Commissioner Woods.
He detailed Detectives Leonard,
Maher, Willie and McManus 70 the case,
and after they had acquired delightful
Southern accents they had a makeup
man color their faces TO the true Ala
bama shade.
Three days age the quartet was put
TO work unloading liner IN company
with the twenty employees. The detec-
tives soon learned that the score had
formed themselves into a league, with
officers. including a treasurer who got
the money obtained BY disposing Of the
stolen goods.
Last night when the gang quit work
the detectives followed four men to 223
West Sixty-frst Street. There they ar
rested Henry Lewis, Of that address,;
Neapolitan Boise. Of PAT West Sixty
first Street. and Charles Fraser, Of OBJ
West Sixty-second Street. According to
the detectives the three had made off
yesterday with $3.50 worth of goods.
The prisoners were taken 10 Police
Headquarters, where they were locked
up, charged with grand larceny. the
complainant being Charles Webb. fore
man on the pier. The detectives qucs-
toned them for several hours before
they admitted they had stolen anything
from the line. Then they told Of their
organization, but estimated that only
$4,000 or $1,000 worth had been taken
in two weeks. The police, however,
were more inclined to place the figure
at 10000 after they had talked with Of
acials Of the company.
