WANTS RIGHT TO
eSPEND fire FUND

Privilege to spend all the funds
ncming to his department will be
baked by Alfred o. Hogston, State
kirw marshal, in bills to be presented
10 the Legislature shortly.
Fees from insurance companies
in the State furnish most
I'd the revenue.
More than half of the revenue re-
XSetved has been returned to the fire
Ernarshal's fund, according to Hogs
ION, because of the small number
Npf deputies assigned.
z The fees coming from the, insur-
hnce companies can be used for no
other purpose and result in a bali
Rnce each year which does not go
into the general fund Of the State.
With an increase in the number
Of deputies Hogston believes he can
cut the fire hazard Of the State and
In that manner get a reduction in

to make the assessment too hard on

they divide the cost in this manner

Nothing is more embarrassing to a
person, especially one of the younger
set, than to have face covered with
mass of pimples or blackheads,
which is not very conducive to pop

Many a good friendship has been
spoiled by just such a complexion;
but sometimes such conditions may
be confused with a more complicated
and malignant skin eruption. Such
being the case, one should use every
precaution in patronizing barber
shops whose dermaticians are able to
determine this difference by know

how it functions.

the pores, and each pore is capped on
the surface with dust from the OIL
Thus, those malicious little dis
turbances known as blackheads put
in their appearance. At this stage
the follicles are abnormally large due
to the pressure of dried oil, dead
cells, and microbe invasion, results
in infection, that causes a harvest of
pimples.
1t must be remembered the skin
must primarily be kept clean, other
wise very little can be accomplished.
Sometimes whole crop of pimples
may result from one lone infection.
The spot is tender and the afflict-
ed person may finger the irritation
and cause it to infect other portions
of the skin.
Care cAould be taken in this case
by using the best methods of treat
ment, also patronizing places where
strict rules of sanitation are prac-
ticed. The use of clean towels and
clean hands, sterilized tools, which
are sources of the precautions to be
used; as skin infections sometimes
prove more disastrous than organic

N. A. A. c. P. WINS AGAINST
GARY SCHOOL SEGREGATION
to Defeat N. A. A. c. p.
Injunction

New York City.-A determined
stand in the Indiana courts, financed
by the Gary branch and the national
office of the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored People,
with generous cooperation of color
ed attorneys, has squarely defeated
the attempt to segregate colored stu
dents in the Emerson High school of
Gary, Mayor Floyd E. Williams be-
ing quoted in the Gary Post Tribune,
a white daily, as saying, ''he was con-
WINGED the action of the school board
in appropriating the $4,000 for the
temporary building was illegal and
that it was useless waste of money
to try to defeat the Injunction"
The injunction against the appro-
priation of $4,000 for a segregated
school was brought in the names of
A. j. Terry, contractor and builder,
and Rev. Charles Hawkins, pastor of
the First Baptist church of Gary,
both colored taxpayers of the city.
The national office of the N. A. A.
G. P. appropriated $500 for this
fight, sending r. L. Bailey of Indian
apolis as its attorney to assist the
attorneys employed by the Gary
branch. The branch has spent an
unprecedentedly small sum on this
important case, less than $500 to
date, testifying to the loyalty and en-
thusiasm of the colored attorneys
who have helped to gain the smash
ing victory.
The N. A. A. C. p. entered the case
at the very outset, the branch under
the leadership of it's president, John
w. Russell, retaining attorneys to
fight the segregation attempt, acqui-
esced in by the city council in defer
ence to strike of Ku Klux Khan in
spired white students late in Septem-
Der. On the night of September 20,
the city council Of Gary voted $751;
900 for Temporary" high school to
house the colored students then study

ing in Emerson High school. On
Monday, October 8, the N. A. A. c..
P. filed suit for an injunction to re-
strain the appropriation of taxpayers
money for such purpose. The fol-
lowing lawyers of Gary, besides r.
L. Bailey of indianapolis, were asso-
ciated in the case: F. Lawrence An
|derson, Charles H. Mason, C. L. Car
roll, and Edward Mckinley Bacoyn.
On October Is, William Pick
ems, field secretary of the N. A. A.
&c. P, who had gone to Gary to assist
in the fight, reported by telegraph
that the case had been venued from
Lake to Porter county, as the mayor
reported too much prejudice for a
fair trial in Lake county.
On November 7, the original re-
straining order against the appropri-
alton for segregated high school
was continued as temporary injunc-
ton and final hearing set for Deem
Der II. At that time Attorney R. L..
Bailey reported Geographically to the
N. A. A. c. P. national office that
he did not believe the defendants
would let the matter come to trial.
On November 10, the mayor of
Gary was publicly quoted as saying it
was useless to fight the N. A. A. c..
P. injunction. James Weldon John
son, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P,
today reports by letter that the Gary
council met Monday night, November
I21, to act on the mayors recommen-
dation that it rescind its action ap-
propriating the $4,000. The motion
resembling the appropriation was
passed in its first and second reading
and the final passage is expected at
the next meeting of the council on
the first Monday in December.
The victory in the Gary fight is a
testimonial not only to the devotion
of the colored attorneys in the case,
but to the united stand of the col
ored people of Gary under the able
leadership of the Gary branch.
