Of sugar has no doubt been the cause
Of most Of our poor jellies.
A given volume Of juice which con-
tains a certain amount Of pectin can
use definite proportion Of sugar only.
Currants and partly ripened grapes
are rich in pectin, and are fairly acid
so that they usually demandN equal
measures, while three-fourths to one
will be the proper proportion for rasp-
berries and blackberries. Much de-

When it is necessary to add water
to fruits boil the juice until it is by
appearance and taste ready for the
addition of sugar.
After the winters supply of grave
juice has been made, cover the pup
with water and use for jelly or a good
marmalade may be made from this BY
product. w.
The more thoroughly the juice IL
clarified by skimming before the sugar
is added the better from an economical
standpoint.

the Juice to save time in the cooking

BY using sour apple Juice with fruits
too sweet, or lacking in pectin a most
palatable article may be prepared.
The best quick test for time to re-
move jelly is when the jelly breaks
off as a portion Of it is dropped from
the spoon. The time-honored one Of
cooling little in a saucer is not q
safe one. for many things may hap

Several reasons have been given for
the increased attendance, which Is con.
siderably out of proportion to the an
nual growth of the coiored population,
among them being gradual improve
ment in the economic conditions Of the
colored homes, the more effective COM
pulsory education laws Of the state
and the growing demand for more
service in the industrial as we'll as the
educational field.
Not little influence has been ex-
erted by the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored People
in the last few years. The organiza-
ton, with headquarters In New York
and local organizations in many of

agitation along we'll directed lines to

Oscar De Priest, the Negro alder
man, has introduced an ordinance In
the city council seemingly designed to
protect Negroes In their civil rights.
They are already protected by law
which everyone knows is not strictly
enforced u enforceable and will not
be in this generation.
Nothing is expected to come OF the
De Priest ordinance, which would com.
pei the mayor to revoke license where
ever proof was offered Of an attempt
to deny the civil rights OF Negro.
Nothing will come Of 1t, but 1t indi-
Gates that politics is trying to do
harm.
What politics Is doing Is to organize
and keep agitated an issue which can
find it's solution only by not being or
ganized and agitated.
That is why, If white and black In
this city have prejudices aroused. the
responsibility will be on politics. II
by arousing prejudices difficulties ars-
ing out of prejudice could be removed
then there would be no objection to
the method, but we do not feed a
thing Of that sort to kill 1t.
In fact, the modus operandi In Chi
cago is as nearly perfect rs human ma
ture will permit 1t to be. 1t Is a fic-
ton that a Negro has full civil. mean

can community. II the law protected
Negroes completely and If they insist
ed upon exercising all privileges the
oretically accorded them q general
SUSPENSION of many lines Of business
would result. There would not be
hotel In the city. There probably
would not be q restaurant or a the
alter and there might not be nearly so
many churches.
The facts candidly faced seem ugly,
but custom and habit. undisturbed by
apitators, make them harmless. They
have been harmless and 1t Is only
disturbance that can make them ugly.
Thoughtful Negroes know this. Self
respect has the same force with whites
and blacks.
The social relations in which the
white and black parts Of our popula-
ton stand with regard to each other
never will be determined by enact
ment of law or ordinance. They will
be established by custom as 1t gradual

or will affect them except as they are
affected by natural adjustment. The
question even now Is not one of civil
rights but Of social habit, and that

The large number Of colored pupils
who were graduated from the grade
and high schools should be regarded
with much interest by the colored citi-
xens especially. Many parents and
aged grandparents witnessed these
events, who never dreamed that the
opportunity for a wen rounded educa-
ton would come In their own time.
Twenty-fOur colored pupils were
graduated from Manual Training and
Shortridge high schools, one-third less
than the number last year. while the
total high school enrolment Of colored
pupils Tor. the yeAx Was 3D. as COM
pared with 258 last yen The enroll
ment was: Shortridge, MA; Manual.
11S, and Technical, %.
From No. II there were SO gradu-
ates, 81 from school No. 26 and nine
from the Douglass, school, No. 10, while
In addition to this number were sew
eral who graduated from white
schools. The total number of gradu-
ates from the grammar grades the en-
tire year was 176.
: The present 8b grades in many of
the schools are decidedly larger than
ever before, the class at No. II num-
bering more than 100. As only small
number Of children quit school for any
reason after reaching this grade, large
graduating classes can be safely pre-
dicted for the coming school year.
Considering that the colored people
constitute about One-tenth Of the city's
population, the number to complete,
both public and high school, would
seem small, but compared with the
size of the graduating classes ten
wears ago, the increase Is appreciable.

Is 1t not time, many ask, that the
Negro care for himself, provide for his
own intellectual and religious needs?
For % years, now. he has been the re-
cipient OF aid from the philanthropic
people OF the white race. He has made
marvellous progress toward selfsup-
port, has acquired large properties and
self-direction, why should he not now
become independents Why should 9TH
ers continue to assist him? Why should
money and men from the North be de-
voted to his upbnilding? This is
fair question and should be answered
honestly.
Let 1t be said then, first, that half
century Is a very short time In the evo-
luton OF race. To educate an indi-
vidual Is a matter Of a generation. to
lift race from barbarism is q matter
OF many generations. The tremendous
influences Of heredity and environment

degrading into elevating factors in Its
