Dean Runnals Speaks in Delta
Sigma Chi
Dean Nettie M. Runnals spoke In
the Delta Sigma Chi meeting of Fri
day evening on the subject, Orient
ing the High School Girl"
Dean Runnals, speaking to a group
of prospective teachers, gave some
principles of helping to adjust a girl
in the teen" age to her environ
ment. A successful teacher tries to
teach her students to accept ideas
which will determine their future
conduct. Those values in any par
ticular subject should be emphasized
which are worth transferring to other
subjects and to life. An abundance
of good will, friendliness and under
standing between the pupil and
teacher is necessary. The purpose
of the teacher should be to promote
the practice of good conduct among
! her students. A teacher, by example
must lead her pupils to better ways
of living.

The assailants were unmasked. A
railroad section gang saw the attack
from their work site at Jaston, rail-
road station nearby, but were power
less to interfere. No clue to their
identity has been left by the mob,
but Texas authorities express the be-
lief that the killings were prompted
as revenge for the death of a white

New York, Nov. 1S-Asserting
that the lynching of negroes, one
OF them a woman, near Houston, Tex
as, brought the total to date for 1926
up to 81 lynchings as against Is for
the entire year 1925, the National
Association for the Advancement of
Colored People has telegraphed Pres
ident Coolidge urging a statement
from him to the country on this sub
ject and asking that he urge Con-
gross to take the appropriate action
within its power to end the lynching
evil.
The lynching in Texas is the sec
ond in which a woman has been
among the victims, the first such
lynching for the year having occurred
in Aiken, South Carolina, where a
mob on the morning of October 8,
lynched Bertha Lowman, her brother
and her cousin, the brother having
been ordered acquitted by the Judge
presiding at their trial.
The status of the lynching states,
as reported by the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Colored
People for the current year is as fol-
lows: Florida g.; Texas 5; Missis-
sippi 4; South Carolina and Arkan-
sas 3 each; Tennessee 2; and one
each in Georgia, Kentucky, Louisi-
ana, Maine, New Mexico, and Vir-
ginia.

NAME OF "GIRAFFE"
TRACED TO ARABIA
Animal Mentioned in Book
of Deuteronomy.

Where did the very first CRATES
name come from?
That's interesting in view of the
fact that we want name for Wash
ington's new giraffe, but it's hard
one to answer. We can only 90 back
as far as recorded history carries us,
and we must suppose that up to that
time they had no particular names,
although it seems reasonable to be-
lieve that the cavemen Of Africa called
them something.
Anyhow, about the first record we
find showing that men were interested
In CRATES is in the Bible. In the
Book Of Deuteronomy there is re-
peated reference to a creature which
the Jews called the "zemer." Liter
ally translated into English, that
means something like a channels.
So, probably the first known name
for a giraffe was "zemer." There is
not much apparent similarity between
the chamois of South America and the
giraffe Of Africa, is there? But that
name probably developed from the
fact that the CRATES skin is very
tough and very soft, something like
that of the chamois.
The first time giraffe was ever
known to be in anything resembling
zoo was in the days Of Caesar. An
cient history tells how strange, tall
animals were exhibited in the, same
amphitheaters, where the Romans
used to throw the defenseless Chris
tians to the savage lions. But the
Romans called them "camelopards."
In some parts Of the world that
name is still used to some extent. II
you have ever seen giraffe you can
easily guess how the Romans got the
name. "camelopard." A giraffe has
long legs and neck like a camel, yet
1t Is spotted like leopard. So it is
a logical name after all. But such
a name was only descriptive, 1t meant
nothing at all.
Our word giraffe" is really much
better. It is not only descriptive Of
the animals color, but 1t gives him a
definite place in the animal kingdom.
It was taken from the Arabic word,
"Zarafah," which means 'tallest of
all animals" The Arabs still call
CRATES "za-ra-fahs," and it is not at
all unlikely that their name is even
older than that used by the Jews, al
though we have no records to prove
that.
We are told that giraffes were once
plentiful over most Of Africa. They
were such inoffensive, friendly crea-
lures, however, that they became easy
prey for the natives and Arabs in the
old days, and where they once roamed
in great herds they have almost been
exterminated, representing now one of
the most valuable Of all animals.
Their flesh provided the natives with
ample quantities Of delicious meat,
and their tough hides, when cleaned
and dried, served numerous purposes,
from making good, tough ropes to
Offering an easy means of rainproof-
ing the roof of q native home. It
was not uncommon even a few years
ago to see as many as 40 CRATES in
a single herd. Six or seven Is about
the limit now.-Washington Star.

Queer Places for Money

Folks who distrust banks, like the
Sydney (Australia) woman who buried
100000 in gold in her garden, are apt
to choose strange hiding places for
their wealth. A few years ago a police
court case revealed the fact that a
London woman kept her money hidden
in her mothers grave in a suburban
cemetery.
Quite a number Of persons seem to
put trust in the security of cannon as
banking places. In gun in a fort
near Shoreham was found a parcel
of jewelry, and in an old Crimean gun
at Liverpool, England, boy discov-
cred roll of notes, wrapped in a SOL
dier's discharge papers, to the value of
over $500.

Having assumed the responsibility
Of the Legion Department in these
columns, the task is mine to make it
entertaining and instructive to read
ers of THE ECHO.
The Management deserves COM
mendation for the generous allot-
ment of space and the ex-serviceman
can best show appreciation thru his
active support of the paper. This
may be done in several ways, the
most important being a paid-up sub
scription and it is hoped at least each
Legionaire among us is, or will be,
subscriber.
Anyone desiring information as to
Legion activities or Veteran legisla-
ton of any nature is invited to send
inquiry to this Department Always
bear in mind the Legion is for the
benefit of, and intended to serve, Ev-
cry man who was called to the Col
ors. If any fail to accept the ad-
vantages offered, it is not the fault of
the Legion.
The annual membership is now on.
The quota of Leslie Lawrence Post is
rs. There are several times that
number of eligibles in st. Paul and
no adequate reason can be advanced
why we should not quickly reach our
quota. We can cop at least two priz-
es by being first over the top in this
District. There are eighteen other
Posts. One prize is donated by De-
partment Commander RUFF Rand
and another offered by Jess Marks
of Post 8. Come on Buddy! Let's
go! Set the pace and live up to your
war record. No Black Troops ever
shirked their duty, altho there be
those who fain would have the world
believe otherwise. Show 'em they
lie!
Considering it to be of interest to
the public to know just who are the
men supporting and UNFOLDING the
Legion among our group, an early
issue will carry the names of all 1927
paid up members. Next week we
will tell of the beginning of the Lee
gion, then why the Negro should
belong"

Open Air Is Best

The open air is better than any au-
ditorium ever devised, as far as clear
ness of hearing is concerned, according
to a recent report of University Of
California physicists. The walls Of
q room may increase the general loud
ness of speech sounds, but this Is
more than counteracted by the con-
fusing reverberations the walls intro
duce. A room that Is carefully pad
ded with hair-felt, or that Is built with
q porous, spongy wallplaster, will ap-
proach, though not equal open-air
conditions.
