American Negro Singer
Dehling German kultur
Singing to Packed Houses, and Strong
Opposition Has Appeared.

Roland Hayes, an American negro,
who charmed throngs at Prague with
his superb tenor voice last year, is
finding opposition from German ele-
ments against the filling of two weeks
return engagement says a Berlin ca
bic to the Chicago Tribune.
Shall we be forced to permit a
negro voice, reminiscent OF the Afri-
can jungles and the cotton fields OF
Texas to sing the classic music OF our
masters Wagner Mendelssohn and
others when we are harassed by col
ored troops Of occupation?" ask pro-
German Czechs in an appeal TO the
American ambassador
Not only are our lands Overrun by
the black race, but they are invading
German kultur and dehling sacred
works and memories OF our masters.
/! We are forced through oppression to
accept the black occupation troops,
who insult and attack the chastity OF
our women. Will America be a willing
ally to aid the blacks in introducing
our kultur? We appeal to the Amerl-
can people to stop this outrage"
Meanwhile Hayes is singing to
packed houses, and multitudes, unable
to gain entrance to the theater, are
lining the streets in close proximity
breathlessly waiting to hear the high
tenor notes which occasionally silt
through the walls to the street.

Kilauea Volcano Is the "4ouse of
Everlasting Fire" to Hawaiian People

and koa trees we ride, while here and
brilliant flowers with which nature
adorns the tropics nod as we go by.
Kilauea is on the eastern slope OF
the volcanic mountain, Mauna Loa,
which is 12,675 feet in height, the era
ter of Kilauea being 1000 feet above
sea level At the lower level the CHI
mate is warm, but as we reach the
higher attitudes it gradually becomes
cooler, until at the edge OF the crater
it is rather chilly. However as the pit
and vents are nearcd, it gets DECIDEDLY
warmer.
When the crater is reached we leave
our automobile, and, following our
guide, make the rest Of the way afoot.
The crater. which is about eight miles
in circumference is enclosed by an
almost perpendicular wall that varies
in height from 200 to 700 feet. Within
this enclosure is vast, black plain
Of glistening, hardened lava, with an
active pit 1000 feet or more in diane
ter.
This lake Of constantly agitated lava
is called Halemaumau, and is connect
ed with a somewhat smaller body OF
molten lava by what is called The
River of Fire" The area and shape OF
these pits are ever changing, as bits
OF hardened lava around the edge are
undercut, and with a splash fall into
the inferno quickly melting as they
become incorporated with the molten
mass.
Here and there on the surface the
lava Gains down and Cools, when sud
denly there is roar and an explosion
that throws a fountain OF lava into the
air. The semi-hquid mass in the pit
spreads out from the disturbance in
waves. much as a pool of water is ag1-
tated when a stone is thrown into it.
This, in turn gradually hardens, until
another explosion occurs and the pro-
cess is repeated. From assures or
vents in the hardened lava around the
pit sulphurous vapors arise and fill
the nostrils of the tourists In places,
under loot the heat is SO intense as
to be felt distinctly through the soles
OF ones shoes.
Little wonder that the natives call
Kilauea The House OF Everlasting
Fire" Within the restless pool OF
Halemaumau was said to dwell the
Hawaiian fire goddess, Pele.
Since its discovery by the whites
many eruptions of Kiauea have been
recorded though it is said that the
lava never overhows the crater walls,
but releases its fiery stream through
cracks at its side.

FORD BEFRIENDS A
SOUTH GEORGIAN
FORMER RESIDENT OF MOUL-
TRIE, VICTIM OF RARE DIS
EASE, GIVEN TREATMENT.

Afflicted with blastimycosis, rare
and unusual disease that has impaired
his usefulness. W. L. Pethel, patient
at Grady hospital in Atlanta, lett Tor
Detroit Thursday afternoon at the
expense of Henry Ford, the automo-
bile manufacturer He is going to be
treated in Mr.. Ford sanitarium by Mr..
Ford's physician, and his treatment IS
to continue at Mr.. Ford's expense I'M
til his usefulness as citizen and
bread winner has been restored, says
the Atlanta Journal.
Mr.. Pethel, who is well known IN
Moultrie and Fitzgerald, where he has
engaged in business as a builder and
contractor. has been rendered practi-
cally helpless by the queer disease
with which he has been afflicted Tor
some two or three years. Mr.. Ford 5
interest in his plight was enlisted by
Jesse E. Mercer, who, heretofore, has
appealed to Mr. Ford's Charitableness.
Mr.. Mercer explained Mr. Pethels
strange case and Mr.. Ford's interest
in it.
"Pethel is suffering from blastimy-
COSTS" said Mr. Mercer his IS
a rare and unusual disease IN this
country. but it is not uncommon IN
South America 1t is conveyed to
human through the saliva OF cow,
not as a dog conveys the rabies by
biting, but by the prick OF thorn or
weed that has been infected by the
diseased cow
THAT is how Mr. Pethel contracted
the disease. His skin was pricked by
a thorn that had been infected with
the disease germ by COW, and since
that time he has suffered constantly
and continuously
"Blastimycosis affects the foot. 1t
causes a queer eruption OF the skin,
and although, so far as | know, no
case has ever been cured, its progress
has been checked In the case OF Mr..
Pethel the disease was held in check
for some time, but recently it has be-
come so malignant as to render him
practically useless"
Mr.. Mercer said that he wrote to
Henry Ford some time ago, explain
ing the nature OF the disease and COM
menting upon the usefulness OF Mr..
Pethel as a citizen and bread winner
when in good health
"On Wednesday" he added, 81 re
ceived tickets for myself and Mr..
Pethel to Detroit, with Henry Ford's
assurance that every expense attend
ant upon the treatment OF Mr.. Pethel
in Mr.. Ford's sanitarium at Detroit
will be borne by the automobile man
ufacturer."
