China Closet, Serving Table
and Roller Tray.

One side is used for the linen and n
side for the silver. The side used for
the silver is lined with blue outing
flannel because this serves the same
purpose and is cheaper than felt. A
spool was cut into halves to make the
knobs for the drawer and a pair of
these knobs was placed on each side s.
that the drawer could be used from
either side. The legs were square
pieces of wood IL inches square with
rollers. Old rubber-tired wheels from
toy wagons or discarded baby coaches
may be used. This is an Improvement
because the tray rolls noiselessly. In
some cases the legs from old tables
can be used in place of having these
made. At each end two brackets were
placed so that the table could be
pushed or pulled. When the soiled
dishes were taken to the kitchen and
washed, they were placed in this serv-
ing compartment with one handling
only, the lid placed down and the roll
er tray rolled into the dining room,
with the dishes and silver ready for
setting the table at the next meal. 1t

In q communication to the New York
Times, Charles w. Thomas, president
of the Teachers Association Of the
District of Columbia, makes the fol-
lowing remarks:
It is surprising to find the editorial
columns of the Times, usually accur-
ate, right and fair, making a vulner-
able and flippant statement about such
a social issue as is involved in "The
Colored Migration to the North"
In a recent work of great merit by
Huntington, "Cllmate and Civilization"
1t is indicated how the migration of
people from warm and ~enervating eli
mates to cool and stimulating mes
releases pent-up energy and spells
achievement. From that viewpoint
alone the migration of the colored man
to the North is to be judged, not by
its effects upon that section or upon
the South, but by its effects upon the
colored man himself, as ain American
citizen, thinking to work himself to
the highest unit value in the civilian
ton and by it's creation of Il social
surplus.
The facts are, in this migration, the
colored men are not being misled as on
some occasions, but they are, as stu
dents in southern schools, aiming to
complete their education by working
in the North under contract, personal
teacher-foreman supervision, and medi-
col oftnn1ona nnH nc hnpIg nf for,-
lilies, they want better educational IA
cilities for their children with greater
security for their lives and their fam
Tiles.
The Times statement that the South
knows how to manage the colored man
better than the North is the same dan
gerous half-truth which delayed the
abolition of slavery and increased the
cost. 1t seems strange hat men should
be unwilling to believe in the efficiency
Of contact, sympathy, and cooperation
to produce the true democracy which
they claim to want, and thus to realize
the intent Of the fathers who aimed tC
found a home Of justice, freedom, ant
opportunity for the oppressed of al
the world, yet the colored man find;
that unwillingness to prevail in somt
sections of this country, and in som
social groups in all sections.
The fact that the colored man con
sents to leave a section to which he il
already so well adapted and in which
he is the possessor Of a near-mon
opoly of the labor franchise" show
his aspirations for the fullness of lif,
and his willingness to pay the price
Already 100000 of Virginia's nativ
colored people can be found in othe
states in the Union.
The North will have no regrets 70
this new migration to the extent tina
1t continues under the auspices of sc
cial agencies which aim to adjust tn
colored man to his new environment S
that he may not separate opportunit
and responsibility, and so that he ma,
conduct himself in such a manner a
to gain the respect of and live q
peace with his white neighbors.

Why Water Fund Increases.
The explanation Of the large in
crease in the cash in the water works
fund is that during the year 1914
former administration paid and re-
tired all the water department bonds.
This liquidation OF the department
bonded debt took practically all the
money of the department

will need all this money soon to pay

Small Water Collection Increase.
On the face Of the clerks reports the
water collections for the fiscal year
ending April showed a decrease OF
S2sS7. but this decrease is caused ny
a change in booking methods accord
ing to Clerk Wilson. Previous to
April l. 1918. most Of the receipts for
meters and setting them were credited
to water receipts. Beginning April l,
1915. receipts for meters and meter
rents were credited TO a separate &C
