PAPER NEVER REFUSED INKr

Fred Kelly, in the Nations Business.
 Not long ago. at the most famous hotel in the United States, the cashier, an Irishman, hesitated about cashinS a check for a newcomer. The guest inc dignantly showed his handsomely en- graved business card which indicated that he was president of big-sound- ing corporation-The North and South American Development company. or some such name. Still the Irish cashier hesitated. Smilingly he tapped the eT- graved card with his index finger and sagely remarked:
 Paper never refused ink"
 Theres a deal of phisolosphy in that The remark should be remembered by all business men who are too easily inn pressed by a pretentious letterhead, or by beautiful printed stock certificate. You can say anything you wish to on paper and the paper can't help itself

REAL AMERICAN NEGROES From the March of Events" in { Worlds Work for March.

Worlds Work for March.
 Descendants of Plymouth and Jamestown realize that they speak the language and enjoy the institutions of European country; but our negroes have only the most misty consciousness that their forebears came from Africa: everything that they possess-their language, their religion. their social customs their conceptions of morality and of life-theyAtrace no farther than the United States. An attempt to dis rupt Americanism in this quarter. there-. fore, is one which our negroes. above all. are likely to repudiate. Their real leaders are the men who are following in the footsteps of Booker T. Washing ton. and who believe that real progress consists not in attempts to attain ne- gro "nationalfsm" in Africa, but in ed- ucation. in industrial training, and in social improvement ~~

Jackson Farmers to Plant
 and Shin Co-operatively


 1T1HE Jackson county farm agent J reports that more than 500 farmers in three communities have undertaken to plant as well as sell Irish potatoes comparatively.
 Each farmer is to plant certain acreage in potatoes between July and 10. They will use the one va riety that has been successfully grown in that section for home use and has proved adapted to Jackson county soil. The potatoes will be dug at the same time and shipped in car lots.
 The farmers have further agreed to grade and sack the potatoes uniform ly in 2A-bushel containers and they will ship only those that grade No. 1. It is to be a business-like affair from selection of the seed to the ship ment of the matured crop.
 This is about as near complete CO., operation on the farm as could be imagined. It is the right principle as foundation and it is right in the final step of marketing. Farmers who conduct their business in this manner need not ask federal or any other kind of aid.

After paying for the goods the good

While the majority of the committee
members for years have been In favor
OF the numbering OF players they have
avoided and expect to continue to avoid
making II n rule. 1t is a matter that
they consider had best be left in the
hands of the colleges themselves. One
committee member declared that as fast
as they could draw up rules as to the
size, shape and color of the numbers on
the players jerseys, coaches who are
against numbering would discover ways
and means OF circumventing the rule SO
as to defeat It's object. 1t would be diff

The committee will further recommend
to the Central Board of Officials that
after the close of the season of 1921 they
drop from the approved list of officials
for college games all who officiate in pro-
fessional football games thereafter.
This is a move, of course, to avoid all
possible taint of professionalism from

AWARDED
MOTOR BOAT RACE
Information Event to Be
Held Sept. 3, ) and 6 on
Lake st. Clair.

For the first time in the history OF
international motorboat racing in this
country the contest for the Harmsworth
Trophy. which the British defenders
were forced 70 relinquish to the Ameri-
can challengers last summer. Is to be
held this year in inland waters. In rec
ognition Of the fact that the Detroit
Yacht Club had furnished the successful
challenger for the international cup in
the races off the Isle of Wight last July.
the Motor Boat Club of America decided
yesterday TO award the event to the Dc
troit organization, naming September 3.
5 and 6 as the dates for holding IL. A
cablegram to that effect was sent imme-
diately to the Royal Motor Yacht Club
of England.
The races are to be held in tho pro-
tected waters of Lake St Clair, Detroit
over triangular course. Heretofore, the
event on this side OF the Atlantic has
been held in Huntington Harbor, Long
Island, and there is little doubt that the
British challengers would have welcomed
a return to the Atlantic coast instead Of
an additional 500 mile trip TO Detroit
but the latter's claim could not be over
looked.
Incidentally II became known yester-
day that Gar Wood OF Detroit, owner OF
the Miss America which brought the
international trophy to this country, is
arranging to build defender that viii
carry four Liberty motors instead OF
two, as In the case OF the Miss America.
This would make the craft capable OF
travelling from 90 TO 100 miles an nour

Albert l.. Judson OF the Motor Boat Cluo

absence OF sufficient protection for the
occupants Of the boat was the only thing
now that could prevent speed boats OF
the hydroplane type from reaching the

Resume of Leading
Football Changes

~ UTTING the ball in play on
- the 80 yard line instead of the
1 20 yard line after a safety was
the most radical change made in the
rules governing football by the In
tercollegiate Football Rules Commit
tee yesterday.
The committee also ruled that
touchdown shall not be nullified be-
cause Of foul that is made after
the ball crosses the line, but that the
penalty of fifteen yards shall be in
flicted on the next play. The COM
mittee approved the ruling that when
the bali hits or touches an official
the play goes on.
