TAG DAY. TAG DAY.

July 1919 will will be tag days all
over the state to raise funds to buy a
place at Iowa City that win be home
for the girls Of our race, VINO desire to
attend that college.
The history Of the school life of our
girls at Iowa City has been one Of
struggles and humiliation. There are
but few Of our people in Iowa City and
to get a place TO stay the girls have
gone into the homes Of the other race
to work--running to schol in the morn
ings without chance to glance in the
glass, hnrrying back at noon to help
with the midday meal, then another
run TO school. When the evening work
was done, they we're to tired to study.
There was no social life for these girls,
when sick they were homeless and
friendiess.
Three years ago few girls who had
gone there TO college decided to make
conditions better at Iowa City for
Negro girls. They took the money re-
ceiyed from their parents and rented a
house, the faculty Of the university
gave them furniture and they started
. home with Mrs. Helen Cameron
Beshears as matron. It has been a
success. They have gained prestige for
ali Iowa and now have a Delta Sigma
Theta Chapter. In 1918 they sent q
delegate to Iowa Federation and asked
for assistance, but little was done. Like
Bancho's ghost they would not down
and this year sent another delegate,
who said the people Of Iowa must make
permanent place at Iowa City for
cur girls. Last year the boys Of the
other race rented their home to our
girls; the boys will use it the coming

MICE and MISERS
Two Would Seem to Have Some
Sort of Affinity.
And Uncle Sam Is Frequently Called
Upon to Make Good the Depreda'
tons Made in Hidden Hoards
by the aodents.

Uncle Sam is so broad-minded that
he goes out of his way to help the
miser. The treasury in Washington
often receives wadg Of greenbacks or
banknotes that misers have buried or
otherwise hidden in places where they
rotted or were chewed up by mice,
anil in such cases the money, il enough
is left of 1t to be recognizable, Is re-
paid to the owner in crisp new bills.
It is a curious fact about misers
that nearly always they do not hide
their money in one place, but scatter
it about in all sorts of odd spots-fhe
idea doubtless being that in case of
theft only a minor fraction of the
hoard is likely to be discovered by the
robber.
Thus it has happened many time
that miser's house, after his demise,
had to be literally torn to pieces in
order to recover his wealth Indeed.
in such instances it is often found ex-
pedient to break up the furniture and
rip the seams of every article of cloth
ing and bedding.
The miser is popularity supposed to
entertain d AdEhcu phCASACASC Ava
gold. But gold Is hard to get nova
days; and, anyway, misers In these
times would rather have paper money,
which is more easily and safely hid
den.
Unfortunately, mice think highly OF
banknotes and greenbacks for nest
making purposes, tearing them into
tiny scraps. the putting together OF
which flor Identification and redemp-
ton at the treasury is task sur
passing In difficulty the most COM
plicated picture puzzles. Paper money,
by the way, cannot be so torn by hui
man hands as to initiate successfully
notes. chewed by mice. Their work
cannot be counterfeited-a fact that
has revealed a number of attempted
frauds ON the government.
The really up-to-date miser, how
ever, does not hide his money at all,
but puts it away in savings banks,
where it cannot be stolen and draws
compound interest. He scatters 1t
among a number of such institutions,
the bank books doubtless furnishing
satisfactory material for those
"gloats" in which. the miser is sup
posed privately to indulge.
