MUST PASTORS BELONG
THE "NEUTER" SEX?
BY Chester H. Rowell

Well meaning delegates who tried to put through
resolution to exclude who smoked from the theoo

morality puts it's chief emphasis on the tabus.
Tobacco is not wicked But it is tabu to two sexes-the
female and that neuter to which teachers and
preachers supposed to belong. .

ON HEALTH--
VARICOSE VEINS-SIT DOWN

Bathing with cold water has been
recommended as temporary relief
from varicose veins. The water
should be applied night and morn
ing.
Another excellent remedy is to
wrap the legs in gauze. or wear elias
tic stockings.
The bandages and stockings act as
supports to the weakened walls of
the blood vessels.
Often, however, it is necessary to
have the affected veins removed.
Varicose veins are result of a
diseased condition which destroys
the valves of the veins. Overfilling
the veins often brings this condition
about.

This is caused by standing on the
feet too long at time. The blood
walls of the veins are strained.
Violent exercise also may bring
about this diseased condition of the
veins.
As these things cause varicose
veins, it is but reasonable that suf-
ferers should be particular to avoid
violent exercise and standing too
long on the feet.
1t is not difficult to detect varicose
veins. Most often they are on the
legs. The vein stands out like a
cord, and looks as If it were right
on the surface of the skin.

Negro workers in the Trumbull steel
plant circulated leaflet in the shop
telling about the American Negro La
Dor Congress that was to be held in
Chicago, starting October %, at the
Metropolitan Unity House, S1st st.
and Giles Ave-, the bosses threatened
any worker who dared to go the con-
gress with immediate discharge
Nevertheless, the Negro workers in
the shop got together, elected their
delegate and have sent him to Chi
cago.
Clergy Tools Of steel Bosses
The minister of the Second Color
ed) baptist church has in all his SER
mons attacked the American Negro
Labor Congress and told the Negro
workers to stay away from there. The
steel company not trusting one sky
pilot TO fool the Negro workers has
had four others sent in. Every night
meetings are held on High street near
the Hippodrome Hall, where these
ministers are doing their worst to
poison the minds of the Negro against
the idea of labor organizations.
Not only are the sIy-pilots doing
this work, but 50 are dentists and doc.
tors of the city who are agitating
among the workers to keep them from

In order to keep the Negro bull
dozed, attempts are being made to

Colored People, which claims that it
will abolish segregation, lynching, Jim
Crowism and get the American Negro

any labor organizations.
