peating one sentence at time after
the teacher, who illustrates 1t with
motions and objects
"I look at my watch" says the
teacher, who takes out his own
watch The class repeats this In
chorus, then individually. The next
sentence deals with numbers and the
telling Of time. All sentences are link
ed together, and each teaches at least
one new word with con7ectives. AT

 NOW OUSTED
Syracuse University Editor
 Squelches Young Man Be 7 cause of His Policies.

Syracuse, Feb. 7-Chancellor James H. Day, Of Syracuse University, to which the late John D. Archbold, the Standard Oil man, made lavish gifts, has demanded the immediate retirement of Brayton L. Meyers, edi- tor of the Syracuse Daily Orange. be- cause of false and slanderous" state ments printed yesterday. The chan cellor announced somewhat super tiously that he had already fired" Meyers out of the institution.
 The charge made by the student editor was that undue preference was boing given to the student who re- eNrned from the war with a com mission, his contention being that to those who were granted commissions were granted credits amounting to a half semester's work. Other returned students who were only non-commis- gioned officers in the ranks were &C., corded no privilege. The editor pointed out that some of the com nissioned students who benefit by the ruling were graduated from Platts- burg only last September and saw no foreign service.
 Meyers was summoned at once to the sanctum of the Chancellor and on issuing from the office said the Chan cellor had dressed him down." The Chancellor had. in fact, resorted to 1nvective.
 You are the biggest liar, sneak and fool who ever stepped foot on this campus" Meyer said the Chancellor put it. You are not fit to be taken

 There was more of 1t, but Meyers said the general tenor of the Chan cellor's remarks was all to the same effect.

 In addition to the editorial on credits the same issue of the Orange contained q criticism of the geological department maintained at the univer- sity as being of the nature of an "old maids home" or an orphan asylum" " The editor charged the professors were paid salaries that laid the uni versity open to the charge of being a "cheap institution" Meyers was refused permission by the Student Council to make a de- | fense.

THE PARROT INDUSTRY IN
CALIFORNIA.

Before the war. the United
States imported parrots and other
birds of the family to the value
Of approximately 81, 900 each
year. Most of the cockatoos came
from Australia, while parrots and
parrakeets were brought by thou
sands from Africa, Mexico, South
and Central America, and also
from the Isle of Pines, near Cuba.
A few were shipped from Borneo
and Java. Naturally the war
shortage of shipping terminated
these shipments. and old birds
with vocabularies of from Is to
100 words became almost price
less. Few were to be had at any
price.
About the time the scarcity ot
feathered takers reached its
height, some one recalled that
parrots in captivity had been
known TO lay an occasional egg.
The dealers began to open their
eyes. Then they proceeded to de-
velop a brand-new American in
dustry, which bids fair to do away
with the importation of birds IF
the parrot family, by raising them
in captivity, like ostriches. or
barnyard stock.
The first attempts to produce a
domestic supply Of parrots AMI
cockatoos were made with incu-
bators. This was unsuccessful.
The egos Matched. but the baby
birds persisted for lack Of moth
er's care in feeding them. all
young birds of the parrot family
being fed from the parent bird $
crop, like doves or pigeons. Eff
forts were made to feed the inc'l-
bator-hatched birds by hand, but
to raise a single parrot bv this
method almost required the SER
vices of special nurse. Setting

would exterminate all the negroes.
Not one would be left alive.
What would it profit the ne
groesi
It is about time that the ne
groes were discarding and repud-
iating the false teachers who come
in their midst, as wolves, disguised
as lambs.
It is time for the negroes to as
sist the authorities, to suppress all
the evildoers.
The relations between the
whites and the negroes should be
cordial. but the negroes can ex-
pect no mercy when they depart
from the ways all good men
should go.
Who is responsible for this in
surrection at Elainei The ne
groes and their false teachers.
The negroes throughout the
South, and the North as well,
should be impressed with the re-
cent statement of the president Of
Tuskegee Institute. After de-
ploring the race rioting in Wash
ington. Chicago and elsewhere,
the successor of Booker 7. Wash
ington says: 'tI never knew a
time when the white people Of the
South-not only the leading white
people. but the average white man
were more anxious than at pres
emit to be absolutely fair and just
to the negro. This is also true OF
the North. There was never a
time when the South and the
North, too, saw more clearly the
value Of the negro as an economic
factor in industrial operations. =

AN INsURRECT1oN.

There is a difference betWee an
insurrection and riot. A riot
may be precipitated by some dis
turbance or local condition. The
rioters may have no leader and
may act independently; they are
aroused by some cause which mas
created the commOtion.
An insurrection is designed
with deliberation by some organ
ization, whose purpose is to sup
press civil and political author
ity. to substitute law and order
with disorder and strife and ia
massacre the white people, as was
planned by negroes in the Elaine
country in Arkansas.
This is the first attempt to
massacre white people in the Uni
ted States since the insurrection
at Harper's Ferry preceding the
war. when horde Of negro slaves.
led by John Brown. a radical
abolitionist, rose against the
white. This instruction was sup
pressed by Robert E. Lee, then a
colonel in the United States army.
Brown and the leaders were
hanged after a trial by jury.
Brown has been immOrtalized in
the North for this diabolical
scheme Of murder and rapine.
The negroes in the Elaine dis
trict were the dupes of a design
ing negro soldier, Robert l.. Hill
who was aided by several white
men who operated under the title
of an organization" Progressive
Farmers and Household Union of
America, with secret signs and
passwords. These negroes were
made to believe that they had the
approval of the government in
fighting for their rights. These
negroes were supplied with arms
which they were required to buy.
They were also made to pay as
sessments in money fixed by the
leaders of this organization.
Fortunately the whites had
been advised of this attempt to
massacre and were ready for the
emergency, The negroes fought
desperately for a while, but were
overpowered.. A score or more
were killed and many wounded.
The whites lost several of their
number.
Such in brief is this occurrence,
resulting in an attempt at the ex-
ecution Of well planned massa-
ere Of white people.
When will the negroes come to
their senses?
Why will the negroes, intelli-|
gent as well as ignorant. be misled
bv men. from the North who get
them into troublei Is it racial
prejudicei rA-,A..
From the greatest number Of
crimes by negroes the evil infu-
ences may be traced to white men
and to newspapers edited and
published at the North by ne
groes whose preaching is social
and political equality. -
There can be no social equality
nor political equality.
To sanction such equality, the
mixing of the races would be di
rect disregard Of Gods creation

white and the negro black. AS

to socialize and equalize the races.

the whites and take possession Of
their property, what would hap
