LESSONS FROM THE RISE OF JAPAN.

Forty years ago Japan was among the
insignificant and inconspicuous nations OF
the world. Today she stands as one among
the three formidable powers, which are
England, America and Japan. Japan has
shown an ability to absorb and assimilate
the civilization of other races which is I'M
paralleled in the world history. In fifty
years she advanced from an unimportant
semi barbarous nation to one OF the great
world powers. Japan sent her sons to
German, French, English and American
universities. She sent her sons to the rgeat
cities of America and Western Europe to
study manufacturing, business methods, and
the science of war. She invited scholars
scientists, business men, soldiers and sail
ors to visit her shores. The world knows
the result.
But lust as the dissemination OF the
Greek civilization and Greek language over
the ancient world the uniting Of the world
under one government by JULIUS Caesar
and the disintegration of the Greek and
Roman religions, paved the way Tor the
spread of Christianity, so Japan had
period Of preparation Four hundred years
AGO japan lived under the feudal system,
with different lords and barons ruling over
different sections of the island. Then, just
as in Europe, the feudal lords finally be-
came merged into one king, so for three
hundred years Japan went through the
same process, and the result was Mlkado
who became the supreme ruler OF Japan.
The three hundred years in which the
spirit of nationality became crystallzed IN
japan were the most important years IN
Japan history.

ALL ABOUT YOU.

A health warden for Baltimore, Mary.
land is being agitated among the colored
Citizens. The health commission (white)
refused to discuss the proposition with
delegation, which called upon him, for that
purpose and it appealed to the mayor and
he favOrs it.
According to a statement recently is.
sued by the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People, deter
mined fight will be waged against lynch
ing in 1920. The membership of the body
has increased from S,247 in 1917 to 1922
in December 1919.
A diving suit made of brass has been
invented by George II. jackson of New
York City, which promises to revolutionize
deep sea diving. jackson is mechanic
of merit and this diving suit is the work Of
many years. 1t has been tested to
depth of three hundred feet.
The budget for the year 1920 of the Ma.
tional League on Urban Conditions Among
Negroes amounts to $22O,OOO. The budget
for the first years work of the organiza-
ton amounted to $2,5OO The organization
extends from New York to New Orleans.

During the past year more than a mil
lion dollars in legacies were left Tusgee In
stitute, of DR.. Booker II. Washington fame.
Of recent report it is stated that there are
seventeen hundred pupils in attendance,
which is about four hundred more than any
previous year. The school was never more
prosperous nod showed more signs of
doing beneficial uplift work.
Some two hundred leading citizens Of
Greater New York met at banquet hall
to testimonial dinner in honor of DR..
Charles H. Roberts who is the first colored
man to ever be elected to an Aldermanic
seat in that city The chairman of the
evening was Fred r. Moore, editor and
publisher of the New York Age. The sue
cessful campaign was managed by Ralph
E. Langston.
''The Negro is entitled to indictment by
grand jury, trial before just judge and
twelve unprecedented jurymen,' said Cover
nor ROBBERS of Tennessee before New
Year audience. He denounced the spirit
of lynching and said there would be none
in Tennessee so long as he was governor.
This is certainly long step in the right
direction and the governor Of Georgia
would do we'll to follow in Gov. Roberts
wake
w. II. p. Gibbons of Port Au Prince,
Haiti is out in an open letter advising the
coored citizens of the L. S. A. to organize
a separate political party. Without going
into details of the subject one way of
the other, it strikes the writer as being as
ludicrous as the proverbial baying of the
moon. If the colored citizens will vote
effectively in primary election they will ac-
complish a great deal more than the or
ganizing Of an independent party.

II will do for petticoat rufiies. / know
a woman who had all her last-sum-
mer ribbons dyed dark blue and made
them into petticoat frills on a dark
blue Jersey petticoat top. The effect
was excellent and she had a petticoat
that lasted all winter. And here is
another economy hint: Use the silk
coat lining that has 10 be replaced be-
cause it has worn thin around should
ers and arms OF your coat. for pet
ticoat top; and buy ribbon n har-
monizing shade for ruffies. Attach
each ruffe 10 the one just above until
you have a hounce. a tan satin coat
lining was used for such a petticoat
and tan and old blue ribbons were used
alternately for the founce. Rather
thin ribbon was used in this case.
Among the irresistible ribbons Of
the season are stunning plaids and
gorgeous brocades for sasnes; rich
MORE ribbons also for sashes; heavy
grosgrain striped landings for sport
hats, brilliant Roman striped ribbons
for vestees and belts OF tailored suits
two-color ribbons for lorgnettes or
pendants. and wonderful ribbons for
the making Of bags. Then there are
the lovely Powered ribbons-there IS
something especially feminine and
dainty about those Powered ribbons.
and they are always favorites in sum
mer time for they are so pretty with
sheer summer costumes. One Of the
illustrations shows a sash OF lowered
ribbon worn with a summer frock Of
white wolfe. And 70 match the sash
there is a gay. frilly paraso,. its frills
OF plain Natter blue ribbon while the
Powered pattern has roses, yiolets and
bluebirds on a white ground.
The sash OF POWERED ribbon is tied
in the very smartest way-toward one
side, at the front. This years frock
has a plain front panel. with rufles
or drapery at sides and back; so the
approved place for the sash is IN

sashes that trail far below the hem
OF the skirt. but graceful length for

mammals skirt except in its length.
and it is made of figured voile-an
ali0ver blue pattern on a white ground
in one Of the dainty designs suitable
for children. A sash Of white MORE
ribbon Is tied in the very latest way:
that is, with a cascade Of loops fall
ing directly over each other and more
loops standing up from the bowknot.
II takes more ribbon TO make one Of
these Topped sashes than an old-style
once-tied sashbOw required. but the
effect is excessively smart-particu-
larry in company with a Harem skirt.
Wide cuffs and collar OF sheer white
linen echo the trimming note OF the

Dotted Swiss Detachable For Childhood
Mothers are taking advantage of the
popularity OF dotted swiss this season,
and every small girl has one or two
frocks OF the dainty material. A de-
lightful little frock or white dotted
swiss. shocked across front and back
and hand-embroidered with tiny pink

anything be cUnninger for baby girl?
The neckllne IS square in this instance
and the sleeves arc little puffs gath

many grown UP costumes have kimono

The company had $4,000 worth
Of stock in the basement, which Is
believed to be only slightly dam
aged by water that passed through
the cracks in the floor. The fire.
men had assured themselves that
there was no fire in the basement
before their attention was riveted
on locating the blaze on the first
floor.
The store had an appearance Of
an almost complete wreck this
morning, but w. E. Cop and F. F.
Eadient. the proprietors, expressed
themselves as greatly pleased that
the damage was not greater. Work
of cleaning up will be the only
means of deciding on what is
spoiled and what is not. A large
amount OF the stock, it is believed,
can be salvaged, but from con-
sentative estimates it was thought
that the company will not escape
with less than $4,000 damage.
The company not only has the
first floor and basement of the
Gansert company building but used
a room in the rear of the Mckin-
ley Hardware company, next build

door to this room that the firemen
had to break open by knocking out
several panels to get to the BOZ
