Why Not Have a Garden?

n GANY persons who love flowers
lVl lament the fact that they live
in the city, that they live in
an apartment, that they live in a
boarding house room, that they spend
their time in an office-that they can
not have a garden because they have
no place to plant it.
Two Hungarian laborers who live
in the slums of a small manufactur-
ing town on a canal wanted a garden.
On their way to work every day they
spied an irregularly shaped plot of
ground under one of the piers of the
canal bridge. 1t was walled up with
stone, and it was overgrown with
weeds. 1t was, perhaps, fifteen feet
long and seven feet wide.
They bought some tomato plants
and some young cabbages and some
onion and lettuce seed. They bor-
rowed a rowboat and rowed out to
the middle of the canal one evening,
clambered on the deserted little is
land, uprooted the weeds, dug up the

OUTPUT OF MINES ON
PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND

The producing copper properties
on Prince William Sound, Alaska
appear to have been only slightly al
fected by the confusion in the finan-
cial and copper markets resulting
from the European war. An IN
creased quantity of copper ore was
mined last year, but the average
grade of the ore mined was much
lower than in the preceding year
The value Of the metals
from these copper ores in 1914 was
also less than in 1913. This de-
crease was due largely to the lower
grade of the ore mined,
the lower price received for the cop
per content of the ores contributed
slightly to the decline in the 'otai
value of production.
The productive mines OF .ns
Prince William Sound region in 1919
included two copper mines ana
eight gold mines. These are oe-

MIssIssIPPIs "MOsT."

United States Senator John Sharp
Williams has been proclaimed "Mis-
sissippi's most distinguished states
man" by committee appointed BY
Gov. Brewer of that state at the re-
quest Of the president of the Panama
Pacific Exposition.
Williams stock in trade is abuse of
his colored fellow citizens who consti-
tute about one-half of the population
of Mississippi. The committee did
well to select John Sharp Williams,
because he is true exponent of the
Mississippi idea. It may be surprise
to many people to learn that when
racial questions were discussed in
Congress, Williams was more vehe-
ment and vitriolic in his denunciation
OF one-half the people of his state than
that other Mississippi saint, James K.
Vardaman.
Northern people had conceived the
idea that '.Jimkay" was the champion
negrophobist of Mississippi, but he
couldn't fool the committee of disting-
uished white citizens of that more or
less grand commonwealth.

NOT so PARTICULAR NOW,

Charles NJ. Haft has been appointed
one OF the assistant corporation coun-
sci in Chicago, by Mayor Thompson.
Haft is the man who is said to have
stirred up row when a respectable
colored man purchased the residence
next door to him, and suggested that
the colored people buy a tract of land
in the suburbs and segregate them
selves.
HIATT is something of lawyer, his
great trouble being race prejudice.
He will now have to do business with
three colored assistant counsel, COL
ored chief investigator and a number
of other colored men who have been
appointed to places in the same office
with him, by Mayor Thompson. g..
Haft has the opportunity to resign,
segregate himself in his own private
law office and thus avoid contact with
the new colored appointees, but it is
a good bet that the $4,000 salary LOOKS
good to him and there is little danger
that he'll turn it loose because he is
surrounded by colored men, some
holding places like his own.
