CANNED FRUITS AND VEGE-
TABLES ALWAYS COME IN
HANDY IN WINTERTIME.
Usually Glad to Prepare
Winter Supply of Garden Stuff If
Men Will Only Raise 1t.

Preparedness should be the watch
farm and of the nation. The home
should at all times be prepared to meet
any condition or necessity which arises.
This requires looking ahead at all
well as taking care of the present and
its needs. Sufficient unto the day may
be the evil thereof, but not the needs.
The home which is managed in busi-
nesslike manner is the one in which
the future is looked out for as much
and as carefully as is the present.
When vegetables and fruit are put
up, canned and preserved during the
seasons of plenty and an overflowing
abundance, it is easy for the wife to
keep the table filled with an abund-
ance of the good and the healthful
things of life But where nothing is
put away during the spring and sum-
mer for the winter, she finds it dlffl-
cult and expensive to keep the table
properly supplied during that time.
And 1t is more than probable that you
will not have the variety of things to
eat during the winter that you have
during the growing months of the year
when these things can be gathered
fresh.
If the men folks will make it pos
sible for the women folks to prepare
for the winter table needs, they will
do so. And both parties to life's part
nership will benefit from the prepared
ness. See that each season there are
plenty of garden vegetables and fruits
to meet the needs of the season of
freshness and leave surplus for can
ming and preserving, and the women of
the home will see that canning and
preserving are done.-The Farming
Business of Chicago.

DIR. MOT0N'S
OWN STORY
BOOKER T. WASHINGTON'S SUC-
cESSoR HAS REMARKABLE
CAREER.
(By Frank p. ChishoIm)
A Way Out" is a most
moving human document. 1t

uEINDING A Way Out" is a most
moving human document. Ii
holds, grips and thrills one as
it relates the circumstances of Robert
Russa Moton's rise from plantation
boy step by step until he not only
takes the place of Booker II. Washing
ton as principal of Tuskeegee Insti-
tute, but becomes a leader in many
movements for the uplift of his race.
Principal Motion traces his ancestry
back to an African prince, who while
selling captives to the slave traders
was himself captured and sold in Vir-
ginia. The story leads through planta-
ton days with their joys and sorrows
to the authors own school days, early
manhood and later responsibilities.
The narrative comes down to the i'm
mediate present, giving DR.. Notions
observations and ideas on the econom-
ic situation the south with intimate
glimpses of his life as principal of
Tuskeegee Institute.
The book Eliminates that period in
American history known as after the
war''-a period difficult to make clear
to school boys and girls studying the
imaginable to any person who has not
Travelled through the south and linger-
ed long enough to observe for himself
plantation life with its mansion house,
cabins, fields and black laborers with
their manners and customs.
In an exceedingly unobtrusive way
the book reveals the man through his
wonderful achievements-hi kindly
spirit, warm sympathy, optimism, tact,
determination, patience, simplicity,
skill in surmounting difficulties, policy
of fair play, sympathy with universal
democracy and his keen sense of
humor.
His success came gradually, without
blare of trumpets and in consequence
of no conspicuous acts. The memoir
les of thirty years of friendship and
association with Armstrong, the foun-
der of Hampton, Frissel, Armstrong;
successor and Booker T. Washington
are drawn upon again and again in the
course of the autobiography. The
friendship and teachings of these
great men influenced and shaped the
life of heroic service given by the
writer.
The letter of Colonel Roosevelt,
Booker Washington's friend, here pub
lished for the first time, is of intense
interest. In short, terse sentences
Colonel Roosevelt leaves no doubt in
the mind of the reader that he be-
lieyed that Principal Motion was the

TWO SOUTHERN GOVERNORS RE-
PLY TO ADVANCEMENT AS
SOCIATION'S TELE-
GRAMS.


Advancement of Colored People
with headquarters at 10 Fifth
avenue, New York city, today made
public replies to kilograms sent to
Governors Beckett of North Carolina
and Hobby of Texas with reference
to lynchings in those two states re-
Gently. One Negro was lynched at
Roxboro, N. c., on July Z and two
brothers were lynched at Paris, Tex,
on July 10. The association wired
both governors asking them what
steps would be taken to arrest and
punish the lynchers. Governor Bick-
EFT replied that he had already Of
fered a reward of s40O each for the
arrest and conviction of the lynchers,
adding that this was the limit al
lowed him by the state and he was
horror-stricken on account of the
awful crime. Governor Hobby of
Texas advised that Lamar county
and Texas are amply able to take
care of situation without suggestions
from the outside"
In commenting on the two mes
sages, James Weldon Johnson, field
secretary of the Advancement Asso-
citation, said:
1.-THE reason why Texas has had
seven lynchings this year and North
Carolina only one can easily be seen
when the attitude of their respective
governors is contrasted. In the Texas
affair where two colored boys were
lynched, later developments threw
grave doubt as to their guilt of the
crime of numbering their landlord,
with which crime they had been
charged. AS long as recalcitrant re-
like Hobby of Texas are
in office, lynching will continue.
Some day soon America is going to
realize that she must intervene in
Texas as well as in Ireland.
"In the North Carolina case, the
white employer of Ed Roach, the Ne
gro lynched, has given signed state
ment to the press that Roach was at
work at the time the criminal as
sault took place, for which crime
Roach was killed by a mob"
Governor Beckett in his statement
said:
I beg to say that I am
calling upon the solicitor of the dis
trict in which the 1ynching occurred
to take every possible action to ap-
prehend the guilty parties. 1 am
also offering a reward of S400 for
each party apprehended and convict
ed. This is the limit 1 am permitted
to offer by the laws of this state.
1t is not necessary for me to say to
you that l am horror stricken on ac-
count of this awful crime"
Governor Hobby's telegram read:
"The occurrence at Paris is de-
plored by the citizens of our state,
but Lamar county and Texas are
amply able to take care of situation
without suggestions from the out
side"

Pack a large stone jar, three, four

thick under and around the sides of

Sim FEM ARMY
NUMBERS 10000
Nv Webb Miller


Omitted Press Correspondent
Dublin, April "a. (By maiD-The
secret Sim Fem Army of the Irish
Republic now aggregates more than
10000 men, according to claims
made by Sim Fem officials.
Continued on Page -
He declared that the organization
is completely equipped with small
arms, such as rifles and revolvers and
"a certain amount of ammunition"
Most Of the troops" have their uni
forms. Owing to the necessity OF
keeping their equipment hidden, each
man is made responsible for the GUS
tody and concealment of his own rifle
and uniform. Neither the officers
nor the men receive any pay.
Our army is we'll .organized in
companies, battalions and regiments
on exactly the same lines as any
other army" the Sim Feiner said
Each town, village and district has
it's company or battalion, which is
known by the name of the district
For instance, here in Dublin there
are four battaliOns. I organized and
drilled the South Dublin battalion.
I'm spite of the strict surveillance
of the police and English troops drill-
ing is going on constantly. Almost
every night within a few miles of the
center Of Dublin could show you
units of our army at drill. At pre-
sent most Of our attention is centered
upon drilling for guerilla warfare
and scouting
1.-THE men Of the Dublin battalions
are summoned to drill by couriers
and advised of the time and exact
spot-usually an. isolated field in the
hills back of Dublin. They straggle
in on foot or bicycle in their ordinary
clothes without arms of any Sort
It's too risky to attempt to drill in
uniform or with arms
LAS matter Of fact, the drilling
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1920-05-07

now is mainly designated to keep
up the interest and spirit OF the men
and maintain the organization intact.
1.-The drilling is usually held be-
fore midnight to allow the men to get
home in plenty of time without
arousing suspicion. Sometimes we
hold drills in broad daylight on Sun
days and holidays in out-of-the-way
places. in the country near by. Pick
cts are posted on all roads nearby and
signals arranged to warn Of the ap-
proach of police or troops.
NATURALLY the names Of our Off
GERS are kept secret, but sometimes
they become known. For instance,
the Lord Mayor Of Cork was COM
mandant of the Cork organization,
which was we'll known. In TACT, we
turned out hundreds of troops in fun
uniform at his funeral and the Eng
|lish troops were afraid to interfere.
"Of course our equipment of arms
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1920-05-07

is limited to rifles and revolvers,
bombs and a few machine guns OF
various kinds owing to their origin.
Many of the rifles have been captur-
ed from the English and others are
sporting rifles-in fact any kind of a
firearm that will shoot. Uu44ke any
other regularly organized army in the
world, we have to keep everything
hidden. We are constantly adding to
our caches Of arms by raids upon po-
lice barracks and captures from small
bodies OF English troops"
The Sim Fein cabinet member ex-
planned the present policy regarding
the use of the army. He declared
that there was no idea among mod
crate Sim Feiners Of an organized
rebellion or attack upon the British
forces.
Our one hope now is to continue
the species of guerilla we fare in an
effort to make it as uncomfortable
for the English army of occupation as
possible. We realize that it would be
folly to attempt to attack in lorce
| The English are heavily armed with
tanks and armored cars and heavy ar,
tillery. We would have little chance
against such formidable armament
But they have little defens,
against sporadic attacks upon isolat
ed outposts and guerilla warfare.

use it. It is like this: You may b.
a very big strong man and able t,
whip a certain little man, .At tn
very fact that he will scratch you u
considerably in the scrimmage make
you respect him to certain extent
We'd never be able to win now in

a wonderful impression upon the citi-
