of white and colored people from all
over America present to pay tribute
to the life and memory of the great
leader and to praise his achievement.
The day had come dark with lower
ing clouds and damp with the down.
fall Of steady rain. But even the
elements were considerate, for when
the bugles sounded for the march to
chapel, the sun broke out In gorgeous
splendor while the 5000 visitors,
teachers and students fell in behind
the institute band. Once inside, the
rain poured again, but later the sun
struggled to the fore and when un-
yelling time came, shone clearly CIV
ing an aspect of refulgent beauty to
a scene radiant with spirit and re-
dolent with stirring memories of a
man whose life and work was incarn-

New York City, Apr. 12.-The re-
cent failure Of two Negro banking
institutions in Baltimore, Md, ana
the fact that these institutions or
their heads were financially interest
ed in various Negro film propositions,
has brought about the discussion in
financial circles as to whether the
Negro film industry is upon a sound
basis sufficient to warrant the sup
port Of Negro bankers, and IL SO in
just what form can a Negro banker
justify his support to the Negro film
industry.
1t is a known fact that in Los An
geles and New York, also in Florida,
leading white bankers have within
the past year placed themselves on
record as favorable to high-class film
projects. In December a vice-chair-
man and director Of the Irving Ma
tional Bank Of New York was ap-
pointed chairman Of the finance COM
mittee of the Famous Players-Lasky
Film Corporation. About the same
time. John e. Barber Of the First
National Bank and Motley H. Flint
of the L. A. Trust and Savings Bank,
Los Angeles, organized $1,000.000
film financing corporation.
In Baltimore it is stated from good
authority that one Of the officials Of

VARIOUS HINTS on BLUINGS
orussian Blue Is an inexpensive Solu-
BILE Salt Of Iron and Easily
Decomposed.

Bluings differ In composition as well
as in form, says the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. The COM
moncst blulngs are Prusslnn blue, AMI
line and ultramarInc. Indigo Is now
rarely used. Bluings In solution color
fabrics more evenly than does bluing
that Is merely In suspension. Prussian
blue is an inexpensive soluble salt OF

and IL clothes are not thoroughly
rinsed iron-rust stains may appear on
them when Ironed. Bluing can be test
ed by adding strong soapsuds; II the
color changes from blue to yellow, iron
Is present.
AniIine blues are also soluble In wa
ter and are probably the most salts
factory. UltramurIne Is not very soiu-
bile. 1t Is sold in balls or cubes. When
used, the water must be kept well
stirred to prevent the blulng from spot
ting or strenklng the clothes. The
balls or cubes. wrapped In heavy mus
lin or flannel SO that only the very
finest particles may pass through
should be soaked In bowl OF water
ynd the blue liquid added to the water
for rinsng and bluing the clothes.

Newest Development in Navy Air
Service Proves Success in
Series of Tests.
STIRS up TACTICAL OFFICERS
In Experiments at Hampton Roads a
Hit Amidships Was Scored by Mis-
sile Fired at an Anglo
Of 80 Degrees.

Wasllngton.-The newest develop
ment OF the navy air service, the mr.
ing of torpedoes from senplanes. the
success OF which has just been demon
strated In series OF remarkable tests
of the Virginia capes, with the dread
nuught Arkansas ys target. IL cnus-
ing no end of concern among the tao
tical officers aboard these monster
fighting ships.
While the fleet officers are consid-
ering methods of defense against such
torpedo attacks, which admittedly pre-
sents many obstacles, work In perfect
ing offensive tnctics IL going ahead
ut the naval air station at the Hamp-
ton Roads naval base. The tests just
completed have been valuable not to
the flyers alone, but to those officers
whose duty 1t Is to keep in action
what they believe probably always
will be the backbone Of naval warfare,
the battleship.
The success of firing torpedoes from
seaplanes admittedly has brought the
science Of naval warfare into a new
phase, with the result that. while bat
t!eships will continue to be essential
to supremacy at sea. that fighting
force which Is superior in she air will
be dominant. 1t Is the problem now
Of Admiral Jones and other high
officers Of the fleet. who control naval
aviation as well as surface craft. to
coordinate the two for the best re-
suits.
The development of firing torpedoes
from aircraft has been the work Of a
year and half, largely In the hands
of Lieut.. Fl. T. Bartlett. and 1t has
been conducted Mt various stations
along the Atlantic coast. Hampton
Roads, Yorktown. Pensacola and New
port. One of the problems has been
the perfection Of launching ge;: so
that the torpedo. carried under the
seaplane may be let go at the proper
time; another has been the manufac.
ture Of u torpedo which when dropped
into the water ut from twenty to fifty
feet will withstand the jar. recover IT.
self and function properly: still an
other has been the training OF pilots
and the working out Of tactics for
attack.
The tests just completed with the
battleship Arkansas as the target
showed that these obstacles have been
overcome to large extent, although
1t must be said that this kind OF tor
pedo firing Is as yet not fully devei-
oped. The tests have demonstrated
that there nre many things yet to
tNxH
for better type OF seaplane. to pro-
vide greater speed and endurance; a
longer range for firing torpedoes. 80

HoUsEKEEPER CAN SAVE GAS
Simple Rules Suggested by Depart

walton Of Fuel.

A number of commercial gas savers
are on the market, but the housekeeper
can save an appreciable amount of gas.
says the United States Department Of
Agriculture, by following two simple
rules:
Have the tea kettle, saucepan or
skillet In place before lighting the gas.
After boiling begins. turn down the
flame to the lowest point that will keep
the food boiling. Furious boiling does
not hasten cooking, and often the tex
ture and flavor of food is ruined by
such treatment.
Gas can also he saved by watching
the baking carefully and turning of
the gas few minutes before opening
the oven to remove the food. In some
cases the baking will continue for ten
to fifteen minutes after the gus has
been turned off.

Ihere's nothing better than good, rich
cream for whipping. says the United
States Department of Agriculture.
which points out also that whipped
cream Is not merely garnlsh, but a
valuable food which deserves to ap-
pear frequently In the menu.
Brides cookery" as one skillful,
economical housekeeper scornfully
intimated, Is apt to be dressed up
with whipped cream to cover culinary
shortcomings. or because it is an ap-
petizing delicacy. easy to prepare but
when properly selected, whipped cream
need not be considered luxury, since
1t adds to the food value of the dessert
or other dish In which 1t Is used.
Whipping Quality Tested.
Extensive experiments by dairy spe-
cialists In the department have shown
that raw cream 0utrapks any other
kind for whipping. While it will whip
fairly satisfactorily under certain con-
ditions when 1t contains only 20 per
cent butterfat, cream can be made
sitter and whipped in less time If 1t
Is richer. with butterfat content Of
30 per cent or more
A Dover rotary egg beater Is the
only apparatus necessary to produce
good whipped cream, but the cream
should be kept as cold as possible at
all times. Its temperature should nev-
er be allowed to exceed ~ degrees

PROPER CARE OF SHOES

Proper care of shoes means n
saving In shoe bills Of from rs to
oo per cent, says the bureau of
chemistry, United States Depart.
ment Of Agriculture. At the
same time it insures good-look-
ing footwear. Proper care of
shoes means:
Have two pairs of shoes to
wear on alternate Gays.
Use shoe trees to retain the
original shape Of the shoes.
Keep heavy out-of-door work
Shoes clean and creased.
Keep shoes for street wear
clean and polished.
Have all repairs made as soon
as needed.
Some important facts to re-
member are that:
Wet leather Is soft, and there
fore readily stretched out of
shape.
Stitches cut through wet leath.
er much more easlly than
through dry leather.
Wet soles and heels wear away
rapidly.
Wet leather burns at a tenn
perature that is only a little hot
ter than the hand can bear.
II dried too fast. wet leather
shrinks. becomes hard and mis-
shapen.
To dry wet shoes:
Wash Off adhering mud and
grit with tepid water.
Grease work shoes.
Straishten the counter, heel,
vamp, and top to correct shape.
Stuff with crumpled paper.
Ser the shoes in a place that
is not too warm and let dry
slowly.
Wait until thoroughly dry be-
fore wearing.

pedoes. headed straight for the battle
ship. coming as close as 800 yards. In
spite of the large number of alrplanes
lowering about. 1t was easy enough to
tell which was about to fire a torpedo,
so that the lodging by the ship was
simplified.
But all this calculation was upset
when one Of the seaplanes swooped
down in direction opposite to that
In which the battleshlp was travelling.
Nobody thought that the plane ex-
pected to launch torpedo. but 1t did
that very thing. sending 1t OF at an
angle Of 90 degrees.
Within two minutes the torpedo had
recovered itself and was turning at
right angles. making directly for the
battleship. 1t was too late to swing
around to escape the hit, which was
amidships, ON the port side. a blow
sufficient, had the torpedo been loaded
with explosives. to have sent the bat.
tleship to the bottom.
Altered Views Of OFFICERS.
The natural tendency of some Of
ficers aboard the fleet to belittle air
craft as an essential agency In the
future has been changed materially
by the tests with the Arkansas. The
tendency existed. even after the bomb
ing tests of u year ago. which sue
ceeded In the destruction of the ten
one-time German warships turned over
TO the United States under the terms
Of the arinistice. The feeling then was
that bombs would be effective only IL
properly placed, under the most favor
able conditions, and then In engage
ments which were not far from land.
Protective decks might easily be
constructed. 1t generally was held.
which would make 1t almost impossi-
BILE to destroy battleship. With limi-
tatfons, this Is true. but the torpedo
has changed the situation materially.
Nobody knows better than the navy
the effectiveness Of torpedoes.
In furtherance Of the torpedo firing
the naval air service has drawn up
plans for a new type Of seaplane. to be
called the DavisDouglas plane. This
will have greater cruising radius and
greater lifting ability. overcoming sew
eral Of the disadvantages now recog.
nized with the inadequate type Of ship
now used. In the tests just held the
seaplanes did not 90 above 1000 feet.
whereas in actual operation they
might be called upon to go to 10000 or
even more, that safety might be as
