Washington. ID. c., Oct. 30 To
the young man or woman who seeks
to obtain college degree and live
lihood at the same time, no city in
the country offers an opportunity
more attractive than that to be found
in the national capital. The several
universities at Wa,hinAt ton provide
evening classes with hours arranged
conveniently for Government employ
ccs, who ordinarily complete their days
work at half past and all libraries in
Guiding the Library Of Congress, are

For years thousands of young pco-
pie have entered the civil service at
Washington with the main idea OF de
voting three or four years to equip
ping themselves for professional or
scientific career while supporting
themselves. Many Of the young
men live at fraternity houses coopcra

In addition to the university cours

evening classes in technics, languag

studies.
Notwithstanding the drafts for mil

HOW TO KEEP POTATOES ALI
THROUGH THE WINTER.

The food administrator Of Virginia
asks farmers not to dispose Of their
potato crop till spring.
In the first place, to sell potatoes
now would complicatc transportation.
In the second plac, to sell potatoes
now would mean that the farmer
must buy them back in the spring,
thus doubling transportation.
In order to keep potatoes through
the winter, the following hints are
issued by the food administrator:
Bury your potatoes.
Dig a hole G inches deep, and limo
it with straw or leaves. Put In a
small heap Of welldried potatoes,
cover with straw or leaves and mound
up with or s inch layer Of earth.
Never store potatoes while they ara
moist.
Don't store without first sorting in
to stable grades and culls for feed.
Don't let the wind dry out potatoes.
A bitter taste will result.
Don't store in light room. Light
lowers the quality.
Don't cover potatoes with damn
earth when storing in hot cellar.
They will sprout If you do.
Serve potatoes every day In your
home. This will hclp to keep the stor
age supply up to grade.

\. \. \. G. =. AND THE SUPRENIIs
COURT DECISION.

On November S. the ncws was
telcgraphed from Washington that
the United States Supreme Court
had handed down decision declar-
ing the segregation laws passed in
Louisville, and by implication in
otner cities. unconstitutional. This
is one Of the greatest victories that
the Negro race has won since the
overthrow of the Grandfather Clause
and both cases have been won by the
cooperation and initiative of the
National Association for the Advance
mcnt OF Colored People.
The Crisis said in it's June number,
1917:
"On April 27. the Louisville Sc
grcgation Ordinance Case, brought
by the Association, was rcargucd
before tho Supreme Court Of the
United States. Counsel for the N,
y a. c. p. were Mr.. Moorreld Storey
president Of the Association, and Mr..
Clayton b. Blakcy, OF Louisville, the
attorney of record.
mo more important fight against
discrimination was ever made than
the taking OF this segregation case
up to the highest tribunal in the
nation. The far reaching effect of
the decision to be handed down can
not be estimated. The fate of the
case which was fought through the
courts Of Maryland by Attorney w.
Ashbie Hawkins of the Baltimore
Branch hangs on what decision tho
Supreme Court will render OH the
Louisville case; and so do the fates
Of tho "fGes fought In st Louis and
Richmond? H......
I'VE believe we shall win, not
only because our cause Is just, but
because of, the mastery way In which
1t was handled by Mr.. Storey. If we
win, legal segregation will be killed
all over the country. 1t Is unne-
cessary to add that if we lose, Negro
Ghettos will he established in cities
North and South"
This victory should make colored
people realize that only in union lies
strength; that only by concentrating
their efforts and building up great
organization like the N. A. A. G. p.
can they hope to win against in
trenchod prejudice.
The National Association is now
engaged in defending tho victims ut
East st. Louis and will carry these
cases to tho highest courts.
