PUZZLED
Hard, Sometimes, to Raise Children.

Children's taste is ofttimes more
accurate, in selecting the right kind of
food to fit the body, than that of adults.
Nature works more accurately through
the children.
A Brooklyn lady says: Our little boy
had long been troubled with weak
digestion. We could never persuade
him to take more than one taste Of
any kind of cereal food. He was a
weak little chap and we were puzzled
to know what to feed him on.
zone lucky day we tried Grape-Nuts.
Well, you never saw child eat with
such a relish, and it did me good to
see him. From that day On it seemed
as though we could almost see him
grow. He would eat Grape-Nuts for
breakfast and supper, and think he
would have liked the food for dinner.
"The difference in his appearance
is something wonderful.
my husband had never fancied
cereal foods of any kind, but he be-
came very fond of Grape-Nuts and has
been much improved in health since
using it.
1--WE are now a healthy family and
naturally believe in Grape-Nuts.
"A friend has two children who were
formerly afflicted with ricketts,. l was
satisfied that the disease was caused
by lack of proper nourishment. The
children showed it. So 1 urged her
to use Grape-Nuts as an experiment
and the result was almost magical.
"They continued the food and to-
day both children are as well and
strong as any children in this city,
and, of course, my friend is a firm be-
lever in Grape-Nuts, for she has the
evidence before her eyes every day."

spoon in his mouth. This inventor saw the light
of day first in South Dakota village. He spent
some of his childhood at Evanston. another small
town. He received his common school and high
school education at Paw Paw. Mich, which is no
metropolis. He has had to paddle his own fnan.
cial canoe and help the folks" besides. He has
been denied opportunity and has forced his own
pathway.
Does he expect riches to come Immediately?
This is his point of view:

"Let me pay tribute to two men who have
stood by me and helped to make this aeroplane in
vention possible. One is Prof Philip Fox of Dear
born observatory. The other is Prof Henry Crew
of the physics department at Northwestern. Mr..
Fox helped with my experiments as much as
one man could help another. AS for Mr.. Crew
the training got under him in learning to anayZe
things is priceless.
'"This analytic training has taught to sit
down with vagrant idea and pursue it to first
principles-to get to the heart of every PROPOSE

Other inventions are aero-fan said to be an

electric heating pad, similar in principle of con-
struction to the blanket. and thermostat for
controlling electric heat.
What promises to be another important inven-
ton, however, is an electromagnetic rapidire
gun. Mr.. Russell has been working at odd times
on this idea for several months The principle is

use of explosive material, he says, and expert

And just to show you that rising young inven-
tor is an ordinary human being like the rest of
u.s. here's one on Mr. Russell: He didn't want the
photographer to take his picture as he stood with
his sleeves rolled up before a work bench be-
cause he thought that the dense growth of black
hair on his would show when the picture
appeared in the paper. Furthermore, he was
very careful to fix the knot of his four-in-hand
tie "just so" before he said, "All ready"

Improvement in his department from

Makes Announcement in Letter to
Lake City Editor; is for American
ism and Dry Law enforcement.

Formal announcement of his can
didacy for the Republican nomination
for governor was made today by Sam
uel d. Nicholson, of Denver and Lead
vile.
The announcement was contained in
letter to William c. Blair, editor
of Lake City newspaper, who some
time ago wrote to all prospective can
didates in the Republican party ask
ing them if they would stand by the
Republican nominee if defeated for
the nomination for governor.
His letter follows:
William C. Blair, Lake City, Colo.-
Dear Sir: Replying to your letter
wherein you ask if l am a candidate
| for governor, and if l will support the
nominee of the party should l not re-
course, support the nominee of the
Republican party without regard to
my own candidacy, and shall support
him with the same earnestness and
| l.
splendid national ticket
Yes, l am a candidate for governor
and hope to receive the nomination
and election. | have but one ambition.
and that is to devote my best ener-
gies and efforts in giving to Colorado
genuine business-like administration,
and to assist in every way in my
power in the upbuilding and advance
ment of our state, materially, morally
and educationally.
Il stand, as l always have, for the
absolute and impartial enforcement
of all the laws of the state. Prohibi-
| tion is no longer an issue in this state
| The people and the Legislature settled
that question, and any honest execu-
tive must and will enforce the law.
| If elected governor l shall unflinch-
ingly use every power of the office to
enforce these laws.
"Our taxes are excessive. They can
be substantially reduced by abolish
ing the unnecessary boards, bureaus
and commissions, and l am strongly
in favor of legislation to this end,
And with you, my dear sir, stand
for that single Americanism' that
means our country first and forever
and a complete and adequate pre-
paredness of both army and navy
Very truly yours,

CONVENTION POSTPONED.
TO THE AFRICAN RACE IN
AMERICA.
Are We Citizens Or Are We Not

The undersigned feels that it is his
duty to issue this call for Conven
ton to meet in Denver, Colorado, on
August the second, Nineteen Hundred
and Sixteen. 1t seems imperative to
make this call at this time because
representatives of twenty-six states
have already signified their intention
to attend such a gathering and bring
with them large delegations from
their respective states.
The most important thing to be
considered at this time by the Black
people of America is the matter OF
citizenship. Are we and can we be
truly called citizens of the United
States? If we are citizens we shoul1
and must have all the rights enjoyed
by any person of any race or color
If we are not to have these rights
and privileges it is now time for us
to know it. This convention is
called for the purpose of carefully
considering this question in all its
bearings and to lay our grievances
before the American people and all
the world.
We solemnly ask the White race II
it is right fair or just for a people
who have served it so long and been
so loving, kind and faithful, and so
patriotic as we, the Black people have
been, to be treated in the way and
the manner we have been treated by
the American white people?
If we are to remain subject race
the time has now arrived when we
should know all the facts and govern
our future acts accordingly. We
should enter our united protest
against discriminating treatment and,
if discrimination must continue, we
must seek a country where all peo-
pie of African blood have equal op-
portunities; where. no discrimination
can be practiced against us. Liberia
is such a country. Africa furnishes
a great field for laudable ambition and
growing emulation.
We call on all Black people of all
the states and territories of the Unit
ed States to join us in this effort to
bring about better conditions for the
African race in this country 1t is oui
privilege to organize in all cities,
towns, hamlets and communities and |
send strong representatives to this
convention who have at heart the fu-
ture welfare of the race.

Chairman of the National Com.
