Thrifty Paris Plans
New Entertainment
For Visitors in 1925

Paris, Jan. 6-(By A. PA city
! going up within a city. Such is the
sight confronting visitors to Paris
| when they look over the great build
ings going up between the Champs
; Elysees and the Esplanade des In
valides, to provide shelter for the In
ternational Exhibition of Decorative
Arts. from April to October. 1925.
Situated on both banks Of the
Seine the exhibition grounds will
cover an area of 70 acres. 1t has
been found necessary to extend the
private stalls across the beautiful
bridge of Alexandra III, which serves
as q connecting link over the Seine,
and the most modern bridge in Paris
with houses built upon it will re-
semble an ancient structure of the
days of the Romans or the Middle
Ages.
Modernism will be the essential
condition upon which articles will be
admitted. All copies or genuine an
tiques will be banished. A special
pavilion has been set aside for the
exhibits of electrical dynamos and
motors.
The industries invited to partici-
pate in the exhibition have been di-
vided in five groups: architecture.
furniture, decoration, arts of the
theatre, street and gardens and tut
ton.
Architecture has been divided
into the following exhibits: art and
industry in stone; art and industry
in wood; art and industry in metal:
art and industry in ceramics, and 2rt
and industry in glass.
Furniture and household necessi-
ties will be shown in wood, leather,
metal. glass, textile and paper. I'm
der this head will be also exhibited
books, toys, musical instruments and
scientific apparatus.
Decoration exhibits will comprise
garments, dresses and accessories,
perfumery, flowers and jewelry.
Everything pertaining to the thea
tire, streets and gardens and tuition
will be shown under the last two
groups.

Women In London
Win Recognition
AS Police Officers

London, Jan. 6 "a. Po-London's
IS policewomen have been so busy
during the last year that they are
going to have another group Of SO
sisters to help them against the in
creasing indiscretions against the
law. The police board has decided
that there are certain beats and GER
tain jobs that only sturdy women
can handle properly, and that hence
folth a good sized corps of police
wcmen will be maintained by the de-
partment.
The police department first put
women on the force during the war,
and they proved their value. They
are particularly useful today in con-
trolling the venturesome of the male
sex who jeopardize pedestrians of the
other sex. 1t Is no unfamiliar sight
in London to see some man being
gently escorted to headquarters on
the arm of policewoman, and the
women arrest on an average as many
law violatOrs as q corresponding
number of men.
Women members of the London
force are expected to obey the ordi-
nary regulations of the department
with the exception that they do not
do all-night work nor follow the
stringent rules concerning trim hair
cuts. They do, however. have to re-
port at certain times for drill and
and their buttons and
shoes are expected to be just as
glossy as those Of their bluecoated
brothers.
The women wear uniforms design
ed, except for the skirt, like those of
the men but their helmets are just
q little more feminine and individu-
with a lower crown and wider
brim. There are no regulations pro-
hibiting the women from marrying.
but, according to the records, only
IL of the present force are married
and only six are widows.
The new members to be added to
the force have been chosen from
the women who, In many
cases, sacrificed home ties to perform
police duty in London during the
war.

AGlance at the Progress
of the Negro Race


landed at jamestown, Virginia with
twenty colored persons on board and
sold them aus slaves, those twenty
persons were the entire colored race
of the American continent, and this
race saw nothing before them but
hard work and abuse. For two hun
dred and forty-six years they toiled
night and day, hungry, naked, tired,
sleepy and sore from the lashes of
hard task masters. But our dear
fathers and mothers sent prayers to
Gods throne as one prayer until free
dom of many thous and namless, home
less, penniless Negroes, who had not
the least view of education.
In 1867 there were 1000 Negroes
engaged in busines, but fifty years
later there were $4,000; an annual
volume of more than $13,5O0, 100000
worth of business.
Insurance is one of the most prog
ressive businesses Of the colored race.
The first Negro insurance company in
America was the American Insurance
Company of Philadelphia, Pennsyl-
vania, and was organized in 1910 and
in $780, Insurance became regular
business in the colored race.
The failure of the Freedman's Saw
ing and Trust Co., in 1873 marked
the loss of millions of dollars which
greatly retarded the progress of Ne
gro enterprises for some time, but fl
nally we made that failure a stepping
stone to success and 1888 the first
colored bank was organized and today
banks in the United States, with an
annual volume of S10O,OO000O
Another feature of progress in the
business world was the organization
of the Colored Business League, which
was quite helpful organization, and
was organized at Boston, Mass, in
1900, and in twenty years there were
State Business Leagues in thirteen
states; and a total of two hundred
eighty-six chartered local leagues.
James Derham was born in Phila-
delphia in 1857 and was the first col

he was sold and became the medical
assistant of his new master. There
he continued to progress along medi-
cal pursuits, and in 1910 there were
3,777 colored doctors and many of
them have national fame. DR.. D. Fl.

tion on the heart. There are more
than sixt-four medical associations

JUST A WORD
ABOUT, DANCING

For the benefit of our young people
who make a speciality of laughing at
their elders because of their opinions
concerning the degenerancy of pres
ent day dancing, we republish below,
the rules as outlined by Vernon
Castle, Americas most famous dan
Ger. They were printed for the guild
ance of patrons of Castle House,"
New York's celebrated dancing acad-
envy. The one-step as now performed
is not dance. 1t is simply fash
ionable method of embracing pub
licly. It's popularity is due to the
thrills engendered rather than to the
grace of its evolutions.
CASTLE HOUSE SUGGESTIONS
For Correct Dancing
Do not wrigg1e the shoulders
Do not shake the hips
Do not twist the body
Do not flounce the elbows.
Do not pump the arms
Do not hop-glide instead
Avoid low, fantastic, and acrobatic
dips.
Stand far enough away from each
other to allow free movement of the
body in order to dance gracefully and
comfortably.
The gentleman should rest his hand
lightly against the lady's back, touch
ing her with the finger-tips and wrist
only, or, if preferred, with the inside
of the wrist and the back of the
thumb.
The gentleman's left hand and
foreram should be held up in the air
parallel with his body, with the hand
extended, holding the lady's hand
lightly on his palm. The arm should
never be Strengthened out.
Remember you are at social gath
ering and not in a gymnasium.

GREAT SERIAL CLOSES

This issue of the Herald concludes
the great serial story, "The Wings of
the Morning." declared by critics to
be one of the most stirring and best
written novels of adventure ever pub
lished. In cost of copyright, typeset-
ting and space used it has cost the
Herald around $1,000 to handle but if
our readers have enjoyed it we feel
well repaid for the outlay.
In the near future we plan another
serial of equal charm. Watch for it.
