-f,eyK VISIT to the "tOl-
n land House," as we
~ n shall call it, until the
4 3k n owner gives it an
- other name, these
days is a delight. To see how
this lovely old home is being re-
modelled in order not to spoil,
in any way, the old architecture,
will be very pleasing to those
who have looked upon it as the
show place of Milford. True it
is, that the rooms are being put
to different uses to conform to
the needs of Capt. Wilson Vim
yard and his family, but it has
not been spoiled in any way,
and will still be of historic
value for generations. A modern
touch is the converting of the
left wing into sun parlOr down
stairs and a sleeping porch on
the second floor. 1t was a sur
prise to Capt. Vinyard when he
decided to remove the two fire
places in the large living room
and make one, to find that the
original fireplace was there. The
thickness of the brick walls, and
the construction found in this
old house were revelations to the
men in charge of the remodel
ing. 1t was lamented in one of
the daily state papers that the
old slave quarters had been
torn down, thus destroying an
old land mark, but Capt. Vim
yard, because of the request of
one of his daughters, did not do
this, and the two buildings are
standing in a good state of pres
erVatiOn. 1t was necessary to
raze two buildings of the same
type, and perhaps gave rise to
the rumOr that the slave quart
ers were no more. 1t is a beau
tiful spot; ideally located, and
the townsfolk are happy that it
is to be a home" again.

During their recent trial their at
torney admitted that they batter
ed down the door Of the jail and
abducted the colored youth,
claiming that they intended tax
ing him across into Kentucky.
They denied that they were res
ponsible for his resulting death.
And so one speculates, is
there anything in a name?' Does
fate intend for persons named
Massie to be lawless, participate
in activities which result in death
to brown men, and regain their
freedom after trial?
Similarly theatrical circles won
der if the name Samuel Davis
hasn't some sort of a jinx on It
for colored actors, the third per-
former by that name having been
the victim Of tragedy and sudden
death recently.
The first Samuel Davis died last
fall in an automobile accident i'll
indianapolis, where he was play
ing the role of Gabriel in "Green
Pastures. The second leaped
from the roof Of the apartment
house at 400 Edgecombe Avenue,
where he made his home. leaving
a note stating there is nothing
more in life. This Samuel Davis,
a well known actor had played in
Shuttle Along" and the Keith
Orpheum Circuit.
A few days later the third Sam
uel Davis, died suddenly in Sara
toga Springs where he operated a
popular night club. He was wei
known in the theatrical world
and was one of New York most
popular showmen.
Around the "Tree of Hope
performers gather and discuss the
fates Of their three "Samuel Dav-
is" friends, and the Davises and
the Samuels aren't looking any
too bright as they wonder if there
is anything in q name.

WHAT'S IN A NAME?

New York, (CNS) Does the
name "Massie" bring luck to ac-
cused iynchers? Does tragedy
stalk the footsteps of actors nam
ed Samuel Davis?' Is luck,
~lawlessness, tragedy determined
by name? The freeing of the
fourth "Massie" after trial for
lynching and the sudden death of
the third actor named "Samuel
Davis leads to such speculation.
What in a name?
In Hawaii two months ago, a
sailor named Massie admitted
numbering a brown man whose
guilt of any crime had not been
established in court. The self
confessed lyncher was convicted,
served one hour and after a few
weeks vacation in which he made
a triumphant tour of the United
States, returned to duty in the
United States Navy. The world
thought sailor Massie of Kentucky
was lucky.
a few days ago, just across the
river from Lieut.. Massie's home
state. three more Of the Massie
clan gained their freedom after
standing trial for lynching a Ne
gro. They admitted participation
III the jail-breaking and abduction
of the young chauffeur, who was
found dead in the Ohio river, with
his neck broken, but denied kill
ing him. The dead brown man,
Luke Murray had not been found
guilty OF any misdemeanor by any
court. Three other white men
we're tried with the Massies by a
white jury.
Their luck in gaining their free
dom after participation in lawless
activities will be further tried,
however, as these Massies along
with their three co-defendants.
face new charges of jail-breakiQg
and abduction in the same case.

Americans will find it difficult to
understand why the Japanese should
become incensed at Secretary Slim
son because he dared to hint at the
truth about international affairs.
The text of the secretary's remarks
in New York city is not available, but
1t is clear that he said nothing not
corroborated by the facts and moth
ing which would offend good taste or
the international amenities. What he
did say should have been said long
ago.
Why, then. does Japan get excited
and express indignation when any,
thing is said about her actions in
Manchuria?
1t is because she knows full well
that she is in the wrong, that she has
violated at least three sacred treaties
in invading China, and because she
does not intend to give up her loot,
come what may.
Apt imitator Of the white mans
methods and psychology, Nippon has
adopted as her own the theory that
the best defensive is an offensive and
SO, at the slightest provocation, she
is ready to pick a quarrel with any,
one who mentions Manchuria. BY so
doing she hopes either to bluff the
world into doing nothing about her
rape of defenseless people or else
to serve notice that she means bust
ness when she says she intends to
hold what she has unfairly taken.
It is as likely to be one as the other,
for Japan has become inoculated with
a virus of national dominance more
severe than any other modern ma
ton has known.
She appears to be the mad dog of
the Far East-and with a sore paw
to boot.
