country where he was born. and

His first citizenship came by be-
ing born an American citizen, and
yet made a slave Ia America. The
18th. 1zth and 18th amendments
did not make Thomas Mcpherson
citizen, it only gave him and the
colored race an opportunity to see
and learn where the citizenship be-
gan. It started at the same time
our white brothers citizenship be-
gan.
When Crispus Attacks shed the
first blood for Americas freedom
In Boston, his blood made the first
red stripe Ia the American flag.
The other six red stripes were
made by the first six white men
that followed Crispus Attacks In
death for American freedom. This
completed the red stripes in the
American flag. The Declaration
Of Independence states: IAN men
are created equal" Yes. God Gre
ated brother Thomas Mcpherson,
and the colored race, equal to any
race. I take It that the 18th, 14th
and 18th amendments are substi-
tutes to the colored race for their
citizenship. God gave brother Tho
mas MCPHERSON the same citizen
ship that he gave any other man,
let him be white or black.
The other was an inheritance Of
citizenship of Africa, where God
made the Negro or the Hanite
Race citizens by alloting them Az
RIGA. David quoted it the Land
Of Ham," see Psalms 1O5;27. OF
this citizenship he win enjoy in the
future as circumstances have de-
prived him Ia the past; that is to
say, an nations will be carried back
to their native lands during the re-
construction period Of humanity by
God. Micah 4:3-4. Every man will
be under his own vine and fig tree,
according to Biblical history, and
geographical history of the races.
Africa will be the black mans
vine, Europe win be the white man
vine, Asia, Japanese, Chinese. East
Indians, and all of the Mongol rae
es. North America and South Am
erica win be the Indians vine, all
that are dead and all of those that
are living. This is Gods doings and
no man can stop it. J. M. Webb.

been told by other trappers Of the
cunning of Glutton, but in his own
mind he hadn't a doubt that he would
soon have Glutton's skin drying with
the skins of the other fur folk whom
he had caught.
So before starting out on a days
hunt for more meat he carefully set
three stout traps around that piece
of meat that he had found hidden
by Glutton. These traps he set with
all the skill he possessed. They were
buried around the meat in such a
way that he was sure that Glutton
couldn't possibly get that meat with
out stepping in one of them. Meat
and traps we're covered with snow,
and it was raked over so as to be as
near as possible as it was when Glut-
ton had left it,
Just before dark the trapper re-
turned. He went at once to see If
there were any signs Of the return
of Glutton. There were. The meat
was gone. Yes, sir, the meat was
gone. Worse still, the traps were
gone, all three Of them. There was a
trail which he could follow and this
led him to little pile of brush. Un-
der this he found the traps with the
drags to which they had been faS-
tened. And on those traps had been
left a little of that unpleasant scent
as if to tell the trapper just who it
was who had stolen his traps.
That trapper was too angry for
words. At the same time he was
chagrined You see he was forced to
admit to himself that this time Glut-
ton had outwitted him.

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPRoWLS.

THE stern, hard facts of living are
at times so real that one would
like to get away from them. Indi-
viduals differ enormously in their
methods of dodging reality. 1t seems
that ones methods of getting away
from difficulties are determined by
ones general personality makeup.
Each personality has history OF its
own.
Some have been known to go on an
emotional spree" of which there are
many kinds. Such people belong to
the excitable type of personality. Any
excitement will afford temporary re-
lief. But the bills have to be paid
later on, for the mind tolerates no
cancellations of debts, conducts no
psychological bankruptcy proceedings.
Others try to dodge reality by the
route of repression. They have been
known all their lives for their Child
iSh" traits. Such dodgers often have
several mansions in their souls. When
one mental retreat is threatened. they
regresS or withdraw to still earlier
stage of development, even back to
| cradle days.
A third method is to get sick. A
person of this type is recognized as q
hypochondriac. Successful hypochon-
driacs are able to get pain for every
occasion.
The fourth and most common
method is to rationalize. This means
a clever substitution of feelings for
reason. a discovery of rich reasons
| for poor excuses.

'1onge," in Maine the 'togue," and
the Canadian Indians always call it
the "maSamacush."
1t is the largest Of all our trouts,
and often reaches length Of several
feet, tipping the scales at 60 to l25
pounds. The average weight. how
ever, is 20 pounds. The lake sturgeon
is the only fish that exceeds it in
weight in the Great Lakes.
1t has a most ravenous appetite
and is extremely greedy. Fishermen
have been utterly astonished when
dressing them to find such articles as
fountain pens, spectacle cases and
closed jack-knives in their stomachs.
The trout darts after anything that
moves, and no doubt some angler,
in bending over his boat, lost one of
these articles and the trout caught
it as it plunged toward the bottom.
Anything they can swallow is
acceptable.
The grown lake trout are too fierce
and aggressive to have enemies,
though they are the victims Of para
sites. But their eggs and young fry
are preyed upon. and though the lake
trout lays from 5000 to 5000 eggs, not
a great number of them escape.
The reefs are selected by the trout
upon which to spawn. In Lake Su-
perior, the spawning begins the latter
part of September. In Lake Mich
igan and Lake Huron, it is at its
height in December, about 10 to Is
miles Of shore, in water that is from
to 120 feet deep. Records of sew
eral thousand eggs being laid by
mothers over "a pounds in weight
have been noted. The eggs hatch
in two to three months.
Commercially, the lake trout is only
exceeded by the whiteflsh of the
Great Lakes. They are caught by
gill nets, pound nets and hook and line.
In the Winter, it is considered the
greatest Of sports to spear them
through the ice. Surface trolling in
shallow water is q thrilling way to
catch your trout.
You can easily distinguish this
trout from others by the many small
yellowish dots which cover its body
from stem to stern.
Anglers differ greatly as to the
trout as a game fish. 1t depends al
together on what you consider a
sporty fighter, and then it would be
best to keep your opinion to your
self, unless, of course, you belong to
the league and love to thrash things
over.

THIS year smart shirtwaist frocks
have coats of their very own
voluminously swaggerish ones,
made with just seams enough
to give them style. Very excit-
ing ensembles show dresses OF plain
monotone, and coats in any one of the
gorgeous new shades of lightweight
yelveteen. This combination is recon-
mended, since the coat will be appro-
pirate later on, over Summer evening
dresses.
The model illustrated is an excellent
ensemble choice for Spring and Sum-
mer wear. The dress may be used
separately, and so may the coat. Both
are strikingly simple. ut when it
comes to putting on accessories,
there is no end to the effects we
can achieve with gay scarfs. trick
collars, interesting belts, bags, jew
elry, hats and so on.
The dress in itself is very quiet.
It fits smoothly through the shoulders.
The waist buttons straight down the
front, and this spells comfort to all
of us. Reserve fullneSs is supplied by
back and front insetS in the skirt
pleats facing toward the center rather
than away.
The swagger coat is triumph in
simplicity. A seam down the back,

3 Clubs Pass 2 Diamonds Bass Pass
e.csn Clubs Pass Pass 4 Hearts pass
1, A better distributional double.
West is surely willing to play the
hand at two spades, doubled or un-
doubled. And when South reaches
four hearts, I believe that West
should 60 to four spades. II North
makes his normal opening of the
ace of hearts, West can hold the
contract to down one by playing
South for both the ace and queen OF
clubs.
At any rate, this is all trifle too
late for West. He opened the queen
of spades. I should also like to
make q few nasty remarks about that
opening. On the bidding, why in
the world doesn't West lead trumps?
South can still make his contract be-
cause the queen of diamonds drops,
and West only holds two trumps,
but that it an unexpected and fortu-
nate break"
South trumped East's return Of a
spade Cast should have returned
trumps, but he may be excused for
believing that South held two spades
with possible discards on the diamond
suit), and laid down the king OF
diamonds. You can see that If the
club finesse is on, and the clubs split
three-three, South will make six
hearts. There is no reason for South
to jeopardize his contract for this
possibility, however. Dummy has too
few re-entries. In order to take the
club finesse, South must either over
take the king of diamonds with the
ace or use up the ace of hearts. If
the club fineSSe loses, his opponents,
however dull-witted they may have
