resent 62.8 percent of the total

AGA, the African Methodist Epls-
copal Church was second with
49,, 357; AMI AME. Zion Church, a
close third with 414,244. Of thu
mixed denominations the Method
ist Episcopal Church had the larg-
est membership with 193,761 mem
bers, while the Catholic Church
reported on 1884 Negro comm
u~nicants, mostly in the large cities
Of the North and Midwest.
That the Negro denominations
have made such a good showing
by comparison with other religious
organizations in the country, is a
tribute to their leadership. The
church still represented the larg-
est organized group Of Negroes ii
the country, and for that reason
is still our most influential organ
of public opinion.
Young college graduates would
do well to realize this fact and
join up with some religious body
if they would serve their race.
Working through SO powerful an
organization, they can be Of much
more service than through their
fraternal groups and small social
organizations.

Fruit Flduors
For Your Mill

One answer to your troubles in
getting fussy children to drink
more milk, suggested by chemists
of the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture, is "f1avor it with berry
juic s-raspberry, blackberry,
grape, cherry, or any other you
have on hand"
Department chemists recently
tried an experiment. They offered
a group of children a number of
different milk drinks, without say
ing a word about what was in
them. Some of the drinks were
combinations of fruit juice iiavors
and milk. Some were plain milk,
some were colored milk, some
sweetened and colored milk. The
children could choose any mixture
they wished. They were told to
drink whatever they wanted and
to leave what they didn't want in
the containers.
Nobody asked their opinion.

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

A long and interesting letter has
come from one of our Older readers,
Mr. E L. Shields, who lives in CraW-
ford, Nebr. Here is what he says:
."I am writing you to let you know
I have been reading your articles

a great deal of time making models
trying to invent perpetual motion
machines, but I think it's impos-
sible. I think the earth, with its
movement around the sun, is the
only perpetual motion We have, or
ever will have. l suppose the earth
has continued in motion ever since
1t was formed and no one knows
how long that has been

AS to perpetual motion, it is a
subject which I have ial mind to
talk about at some time later. 1t
Is true that no one ever has made
a successful perpetual-lnotion ma
chine.
1t is true that the earth has per-
petual motion or something like it..
Scientists say it has been going
around the sun for hundreds of
millions of years and there is reason
to expect it to keep going for hun
dreds of millions of years to come.

North had a good hand, but had
already bid his full strength when
West tried the sacrifice bid of four
spades. Furthermore, it was clear
to every one at the table that West
didn't expect to fulfill his contract
of four spades So if North had
passed. he could have been quite
sure that South would take some ac-
ton.
If South had a long heart suit
and good distribution, he would
probably bid five hearts; otherwise
he would double four spades and COL
lect a sure profit rather than try
for a doubtful one.
As it happened, South had no
chance to make five hearts, for the
bad trump break resulted in the
loss of two hearts, besides the club
ace If North had passed four spades,
South would have been delighted
to double, and four spades would
have been set four tricks for loss
of TOO points.

OWN THEIR HOMES

Washington, Aug. 6 -(UP)-
Fewer MontananS owned homes
in 1910 than in 1890, the u. s.
department of commerce indi-
Gated today, although the num-
Der of families in the state in
creased TIA per cent during
that period.
In 1880, 54.2 per cent of Mon
tana families owned their
homes. In 1910, the percentage
had fallen to So. OF the owner
occupied dwellings, 26.4 per cent
were mortgaged.
Dwelling houses in the state
in 1910 totaled 177,443, of which
1853, 1868 were occupied. OF the
houses lived in, 37.1 per cent
had private baths, while 62.9
per cent had no modern"
plumbing and 1913 per cent
needed major repairs.
Overcrowding existed in a
considerable number of homes,
the report said, in that 1873 per
cent had more than one and
one-half persons per room.
A shift from the farm to the
city occurred during the de-
preston years. Between 1880
and 1910 the number of urban
families increased 1868 per cent,
while rural families decreased
6 per cent.
M%ontanans living in cities
paid an average of 1926 month
ly rent during the 1O-year per-
iod, while people in smaller
towns and villages paid only an
average of $13.41. The average
rent for the state was $19.87 per
month. In Butte, the states lar
gest city, it was $23.33.
