The proverbial ''f1y In amber" is
strikingly exemplified In collection
Of red amber from Burma recently pre-
sented to the British museum. The am

ing, according to an English authority,
who has examined the material, thir-
ty-one new species, of which five are

represented with the exception of ants.

acquainted with a young man hvs

my home several times, on which oc-

dearest girl friend. This my mother
knows all about and does not object to.
which surprised me, as she is very
strict.
Recently my friend discovered that
was only seventeen, and he confessed
he regarded me as at least nineteen.
Since he has found out am only sew

us our friendship, as this young man

but fear IL phoned or wrote him IL
would seem too forward on my part.

THE AMERICAN NEGRO SOLDIER

The American Negro, fighting in
Europe, believed that in fighting the
Germans he was also fighting indi-
rectly for his own privileges at home
in America. Although he had been
denied equality before the law and
other rights guaranteed by the Con-
stitution, he, no doubt, hoped that N
view of his willingness to fight for
his country, these constitutional guar
antees might at last be awarded him
The American Negro soldier returns,
looks for his reward and finds that:
According to the records of the Ma
tional Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People, 'In 20 months
since the United States entered into
the great war to make the World safe
for democracy, and when the Ameri-
can people were dedicated to so high
a purpose, 109 Negroes had been
lynched." And that it is on the in
crease that "a more lynchings oc-
Cured in 1918 than in 1917. He fur
ther finds that: "Since President VIII
son appealed to the country against
lynching on July 26, asking the gov
ernors of the states, law officers and
men and women of every community
in the United States to keep Ameri-
cas- name without stain or reproach,
and to cooperate actively and watch
full to make an end of this disgraceful
evil saying that lynching cannot live
