save money without appearing to do
so. The few suggestions Of today may
prove helpful.
A good dressing table for cham
Der can be made of a wooden box
chosen for it's height and breadth
mainly. 1t should be low enough to
sit before and see ones reflection in
a mirror positioned above 1T. Wad the
top of the box and cover it with
chintz. Tack gathered or pleated
lengths of the same textile along edges
so that they fall in graceful folds
to the floor. A bench can be made in
this same way to form the seat be-
fore the dressing table. This style OF
furnishing is much in vogue today
so no appearance Of economy is sug
gested.
Boxes can be transformed into book
cases for den or living room by sup
plying the boxes with shelves. These
can rest on large screw-eyes at back
and front Of sides. On top of each
four so placed at exactly the same
height, one shelf can rest. -Four
shelves, or even three are sufficient
Paint the bookcase the color Of the
woodwork in the room or stain II
mahogany and give it coat of dull
varnish.
FootstoOl.
A small box with clothes hooks fol
feet makes a smart footstool. Cover
the sides Of the box with upholstery
fabric and the top too after waddins
it. Or chintz can be used for uphol
stery If the foot rest is for a chamber
or sun parlor.
In picking articles from rooms fol
the reclaimed attic or other ROOM b,
careful to choose those which accort
pleasingly in STYLE wood and finishes
Let there be nothing homogeneous abou
the new furnishings but happy har
mony.

PREPARING RICE
AND MERINCUES
Problem Not Hard Once You
Learn the Secret.
By EDITH M. BARBER

am going to let the reader Of this
column see the answer to NUMBER
of questions which have come to me
by letters during the last few weeks.
l have found, as l am sure you have,
that what is Of interest to one house
keeper is of interest to another.
"What is substitute for gelatin?"
asks questioner. am afraid that
do not exactly understand what is
meant by that question. If a vege-
table instead of an animal product Is
desired "agar-agar" can be used. 1t
needs longer soaking in contrast to
gelatin and must be cooked when the
jelly is made. The same letter asks
If marshmallows can be used as sub
stitute for gelatin. A combination OF
marshmallows, favoring and whipped
cream will mold if chilled in the re-
frigerator, and is delicious. A mar
low" is a frozen mixture of marsh
mallows, tlavoring and whipped cream.
Another request is for repetition
Of the directions for cooking rice by
the Chinese method. This am giving
below. AS told you before, am GER
tain that this is not the only method
used in China, but the recipe was CIV
en- me by Chinese woman and have
found it most satisfactory and easy
way to produce dry, tlaky rice.
Speaking of the Chinese, another
letter asks where the materials for
making chow mein and chop suey can
be purchased. These can now be
found at almost any grocery store
under the brand of a company which
specializes in this, and which furnishes
recipes with their products. Many of
the Chinese restaurants use these
same materials in their kitchens. OF
course, you know that these dishes
have not been actually transported
from China in the form we know them,
but have been developed to suit Amer
lean tastes.
Another letter asks for recipe for
lemon meringue pie-that typical
American dessert-and wants to know
especially how to keep the meringue
from shrinking. This is accomplished
by baking the meringue in slow oven
800 to 325 degrees T., for Is minutes
Personally / like meringue which Is
not too puffy but which is velvety, like
a frosting. This kind is produced by

The Household
By LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER

The retaining of rooms through
changed decoration is something which
at one time or another falls to the
lot of almost every home decorator.
This is especially true where homes
are houses rather than apartments,
although even the flat dweller has to
do it occasionally. 1t is she, really,
who has all the time to make one
room appear like another. 1t is amaz-
ing how successfully some home dec
orators alter appearances of rooms
at moments notice from living room
to bedroom, from kitchen to dining
room, etc. Such changes are transi-
ent, however, as the changing back
again has to be done daily also.
1t is when a room undergoes a
permanent change Of use that it has
to be reclaimed through change Of
furniture. Or it may be that some
unused room is needed and must be
made into some specific type, cham
Der, sewing room, den, ETC., with lit
| tie more furniture and furnishings
than are to be gathered from other
rooms in a home. Here the proper
selection of articles and the knowl-
edge Of the least furniture, etc., which
can possibly be bought, bring the
most thrifty results.
Ingenious Changes.
It is seldom an easy matter No
room can have too much robbed from
it to 60 into the new room lest Meth
er appears we'll furnished. To avoid
buying articles the home decorator
must be ingenious and inventive to

Whites for Demanding
Jim Grow Law Repeal

ANNAPOLIS, Md, April 24.-Four
Negro and two white workers were
sentenced to from 20 days to six
months in the house of correction
by Judge Nicholas Green Of the Cir
cult Court here, following an attack
upon TIL by police when they ap-
peared before the capitol to demand
passage Of the jim Grow repeater
bill, since defeated.
The delegation of IS was attacked
March 10, after they had left the
capitol and while they were boarding
a bus to return to Baltimore. Ac-
eording to the testimony in court of
Police Chief Myers Of Annapolis, this
attack was made on direct orders of
Governor Richie.
The trial, it was pointed out by
Bernard AIDES, International Labor
Defense attorney who appeared to
defend the victims of the attack in
court, was illegal, as it was held
without Grand Jury action. Judge
Green refused to permit AIDES to ex-
anime prospective jurors.
Those sentenced were Louis Ber-
ger, Baltimore organizer of the lid

law prevails, the first schools to be
shut down were the Negro schools.
AS there are 5,88s schools in the
state, and half the population Is
Negro, practically all the Negro
schools have been shut down.
Teachers Get Scrip
Teachers have been getting 50 a
month. Part of their salaries have
been paid in scrip. Merchants will no
longer accept this scrip. In some COM
nunities the teachers are working for
board and keep. Families of the COM
munity take turns in boarding them
In other places teachers sleep in the
schoolhouses and live on vegetables
given them by the parents, which
they cook on the schoolhouse stove.
The state owes these teachers ST.

TUSKEGEE, Ala, April 24-Rich-
ard II. Powell, S.. of the town OF
Tuskegee and the father of Richard
H. Powell, Jr., who will prosecute the
five TallapooSa Negro sharecroppers
when they go on trial in the Circuit
Court at Dadeville on Tuesday, is the
official attorney for Tuskegee Insti-
tute.
This was learned today by the
writer, and gives further proof of
the close connection between the
Tuskegee officials and the landlords
who are seeking to crush the Share
troopers Union by imprisoning its
leaders.
Walking into the spacious offices
Of Dr. r. H. Motion, head of Tuske-
gee, asked Motion point blank
whether it was not fact that the
Institute of which he is a director
had turned over the dying cropper,
Cliff James, to Sheriff Reilly of Ma
con County. after the Negro had come
TO the TUskegee hospital fer treat
nent following the murderouS attack
upon the troopers by deputy sheriffs
or December 10, last. With a bullet
in his back, weak from loss Of blood
and without food during the two days
and nights he had tramped the high
ways with the siaeriff's posse upon
his heels, Cliff James had come to
Tuskegee to seek medical treatment.
Replying to my question, DR.. Motion
said blsndly:
Cliff asked to be turned over to
the law; he thought he'd be safer in
jail"
Negro Choppers Know Better
A moment later-Seeking more
plausible alibi-Moton informed me
that according to Alabama law
we're compelled to report such cases
at once
Negro troopers in this section,
however, and particularly those who
knew Cliff James, his courageous
character and his implacabIe hatred
for "the law" say that DIR. Motion lies
and they say so without hesitation.
Tuskegee is the largest Negro in
stitution in the South. 1t has its own
Negro police and enforces compulsory
military training upon its more than
1000 male students. What is more,
Tuskegee boasts Of the highest rank

which Motion implies he feared!
Throughout the entire interview.
DR.. Motion revealed clearly his close
associations with the powerful white
landlords, bankers, politicians and
those who rule over the exploited
and starving troopers.

Sprinkled in his own Suaye talk
were references to the leading land
lords and merchants as my white
friends" while his mention of the
troopers Of his own race was made
gingerly and with unahashed conde-
scension.
Motion grows reminiscent as the in
terview proceeds. When first came
down here IL years ago some of my
friends had said to Inc before my
departure: Why do you want to so
down there among those savages?'
And I replied, I'm going down there
to live among them, suffer with them
and be lynched with them"

holdings, is $4,000, 0O0-and whose
donors include John D. Rockefeller

Dr.. Motion and his crew at Tuske-

the institution had turned over to
the authorities the names Of those
troopers alleged to have participated
in the clash which resulted in the
killing of Cliff James and three other
