The Unknown Quantity.

When thing like that happens q
man does not Know exactly where he
Is or how he feels. The largeness and
the smallneSS of he world amaze him
the mystery of life bewilders him; he
Is confused in the presence OF the IN
known quantity. How he behaves,
what he says or does. depends entirely
upon instincts beyond his control. This
is what happened TO Richard when he
heard the voice of Carola.-Henry

DUNBAR MEMORIAL AT
ST. MARKS N. E. CHURCH
By N. A. NJ. Majors,

At the Paul Laurence Dunbar me.
mortal, which is presided over by Mr..
Julius Avendorph, there was assem-
bled a very cultured audience. It
was held at St. Marks N. E. Church
Sunday at P. NJ, June 2eth.
A most excellent program was rem
dered, which included elocution, pipe
organ solo, address, vocal solo and
violin solo.
The speaker of the occasion was
Hon. Clarence s. Darrow, a lawyer
and q scholar of naaonsl reputation.
His speech was conversational, but
strung with golden diadems fit to be-
deck a crown. That rich common
place philosophy that only a ripe stu
dent of human nature could descant
upon.
He knew, it seemed, the reason
why to all our mental ills, and racial
worries, but because he knew Dun
bar in the mental spheres, he also
knew our race, because of what Dun
bar had written.
Our poet had none of those color
frills to give him urge. Perhaps
it was because of his handicap (being
black that made him struggle the
harder to overcome it and prove that
being black need not be q barrier to
greatness and fame.
It is a shame, and indeed q lasting
one, that Paul Laurence Dunbar was
not respected by his race, nor taken
for the hundredth-part Of his worth,
nor did he live to enjoy seeing the
great honor brought to his race be-
cause Of what he did. It is a pity
that the Negro is 50 dadgasted blind
and deficient in patters of due honor
and appreciation respecting his own
race. But what is to be done? We

of their return to the United States
and was attended by many Japanese

SOLDIERS WILL Be
Transported TO
THEIR HOME TOWN.
WILL NO LONGER BE SENT TO
PLACES OF ENLIST
MENT

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, June T.
Soldiers upon rehabilitation are n
titled to transportation at five cents
per mile either to their bonafide
home town, or to the point of en-
listment, according to new orders
now in effect at the rehabilitation
camp here, it was announced by
Captain Roger H. Waite. Hereto
fore transportation was granted only
to the point of enlistment or Undue
ton. Under the new arrangement,
regardless of where the soldier en-
tered service, he is entitled to
transportation upon discharge to
his real home.
Generalization officers are m
powered to transfer men to other
camps nearer the home town, or
give transportation direct to the
home town, whichever is most de-
sirable.
Many soldiers previously dis
charged from the army and granted
three and one-half cents mileage,
are entitled under the ruling to the
additional amount to make up the
five cents per mile. To obtain these
discharged soldiers should present
themselves to the nearest army re-
cruiting office or communicate with
the nearest recruiting station. The
recruiting station will send a copy
OF the discharge and an AFFIDAVIT
to the zone finance officer, Lemon
building, Washington, D. c., who
will %thereupon send a check for the
amount due to the discharged SOL
der.

MILLS AGAIN
WORKING FULL FORCES
ON AMERICAN COTTON
REMOVAL OF EXPORT RESTRIC-
TONS BRINGS JOY TO
LANCASHIRE

LONDON, June AFTER having
kept their textile mills idle since
April 10, most of the Lancashire
spinners of American cotton re-
sumed activity on April %. The
100000 operatives affected are now
back at work.
Nothing, says the American cham
Der of commerce in London, has
frightened the outlook in Lanca-
shire so much as the governments
recent removal of the cumulative
restrictions on exports to the Euro
pean neutrals and the abolition OF
the black lists TO rthose countries.
Holland, for instance, was in
peace time, second only to Germany
as Lancashire's best yarn customer,
and it is nov expected that millions
of dollars worth of Lancashire piece
goods and yarns will be absorbed by
the Dutch, Danish, Norwegian, Swiss
and Swedish markets.
Considerable yarn contracted for
long ago and at much lower prices
has been held up by the restrictions.
The American chamber of commerce
in London understands that to cover
such cases the Dutch and
the English spinners have recently
come to an agreement that an in
crease of from Id e cents) to Sd
(6c) per pound over contract prices
shall be paid to the spinner when
the yarn is shipped.
