Major Adam E. Patterson, recently
'partment. has reestablished his 'AV
offices at 129 East 31st Street in the
old Avenue Hotel Building. 1t will
be remembered that lawyer Patter-
sol was the only member of our race
to receive the distinction of being
commissioned with the rank of Ma
jor in the legal department of the
United States Army in France. We
already knew that Mr.. Patterson had
a national reputation both as a good
lawyer and as race man hence we
were certain that he would make a
record for himself as a soldier. In
an interview iwth the Major few
days ago with reference to the out
come of the trial of the fourteen
Camp Grant soldiers, Mr.. Patterson
said that of the six men acquitted
two had been sentenced to hang by
the former trial court and that the
eight convicted would sooner or later
be released or he would go to the
United States Supreme Court. A
visit to Major Patterson's office con-
vinced US that the old Avenue build
ing on 31st and Indiana Ave, in
which some of our most prominent
professional men are located is a
very popular corner.

One Killed; Another Sho,
By Man WHO Promised
To Sell Liquor.

Birmingham. Ala, March 9th
An unknown white man bargained to
sell two colored men several quarts at
whisky at eleven o'clock Monday ev-
ening at a certain place on Vanderbilt
Road.
The two colored men. one Mr.. vii
liam Hill and the name of the other
was not ascertained, had an agree
ment with the white man to meet
him which they kept. The place of
meeting was however, at a very dark
section Of the road and before the
eolofcd men could get their bearing
Il masked man appeared an ordered
the men to hold up their hands.
They did not comply with the de-
mands to hold up and several shots
were fired after which the highway
man turned and ran into the woods,
Hill took to his heals without waiting
70 see the fate of his partner. One
of the shots hit him ia the shoulder.
From fright and loss of blood,
Hill was so weak when he reached
the city he was unable for several
hours to give definite information OF
what had occurred.
Detectives Jones, Brewer. McGill
and Patton made search throughout
the neighborhood where the robbery
occurred but could not find no trace
Of the white man or the other colored
man. 1t is feared the colored mar
may have also been shot and crawleo
off and died, more thorough search
is being conducted to find the coloreC
mafin.
Little hope is held out for the rest
of the white men as Mr.. Hill can give
no definite description and did no
have his name.

IS She STILL ALIvEp

For over four years a young
Greek In America had not heard
rom his aged mother, who lived
a Constantinople. Eagerly he
watched the mails for a letter.
Month after month he sent her
money for food and clothing, but
sever knew whether she received it
Or not. Four years passed without
4 word from his dear old mother
and he was frantic with grief and
despair. Then the war ended and
he hastened home on the first boat
that sailed for Constantinopie to
End out if his mother was still
alive.
The terrible strain OF the war has
affected nearly everyone. Ameri-
:an fathers and mothers have suf-
Tered in silence, waiting day and
night for some word from their
boys far away in the army.
Thousands of foreign-bornA Amer
leans have waited in vain for a
letter from their father, mother,
sister or brother across the sea in
wal -lOl II 4-OlOPN' |AiSA 81 APPCA
their hearts when they thought of
their loved ones cold, hungry and
despairing amid their ruined homes
and the graves of their dead
How could they laugh when
they were sick at hearth How
could they help grieving as day
after day went by and no letter
came. The mother, whose son was
grievously wounded and at the
point Of death somewhere in
France, could not go to her boy.
She could but wait and pray for
him.
With the clutch of fear at their
hearts and nerves strained to the
breaking point, man. fathers and
mothers have bravery smiled, but
the strain and suspense have
brought the gray hairs lowered
their vitality, exhausted their
strength and undermined their
health.

1t appears that snakes change their
skins several times year before reach

why snakes cast their skins is to pro-

warm blooded creatures. SO when it
