was almost ridlculouSly easy. Brad'S system
was based on concentrating an animals
attention by arm cues, voice cues and
snaps of the whip - on the trick to be per-
formed. George used the same system, with
improvements. He gave more interesting cues.
George would saunter across the arena,
carrying his tail at rakish angle like girl
with parasol Or he might totter into the
big cage and sag down like dandelion gone
to seed. kali's attention would wander from
the trick she was performing, and pretty soon
she would trot anxiously to George. She
seemed to have accepted a wave OF his
feathery tail as cue to start washing him.
Several scientists investigated the phe
nomenon, and decided that it was sublima
ton of the maternal urge of the tigress. Re-
porters wrote, more simply, that George had
what it takes. Brad tried in vain to chase
George out of the building. He made hideous
noises behind Georges back. He threw buck
cts of water - and missed Gradually Brad
became thin and haggard. George seemed
thinner, too, but that was only because kali's
tongue rubbed off a lot OF fur. Actually he was
in the highest of back-fence spirits.
This sort of thing had been going on for
more than week when one morning, Brad
walked into Francescas office and tossed a
telegram on her desk 1t said:

Notes From the Inter.
DenOminatiOnal
Ministers Alliance

On Monday at IL a, m. the Min
isters' Alliance presided over by
the Rev. G. Wayman Blakelv, pas
tor of Bethel A. M. L. Church,
meets at Mount Zion Batist
Church. the Rev, Fred T. Guy,
pastor. The laymen would think
that ministers do nothing else but
dlscuss matters pertaining to their
own particular field. And some
laymcn would be all too eager to
hpll criticisms at ministers who
have the courage to call the at
tention of the public to some of
the conditions which handicap the
full development of worthwhile
personalities. The writer is hap
py to state that the members of
the Alliance do not recognize the
conpartmentali2ed life of the in
dividual rs was assumed some
years ago. What affects the So
cial, economic life of the individ-
ual has n very important influ-
ence upon his religious life,
Because Of this fact the ALI
ance has taken the lead in several
instances and cooperated with 9TH
or organizations of the city on
other occasions in endeavors te
change some Of The existing con
ditions. Two special committees
whose report will have far reach
ing benefits to the community at
large Were adopted last Monday.
The first, the Committee on Y. M.
c. A. For months this committee
has been making overtures with
the Secretary of the white Y. Nj.
c. a. SO successful have been
these discussions that two public
meetings were held on Saturday
and Sunday, May 1918 at which
time both Messrs. Withee and Eu-
banks spoke encouragingly of the
prospects for the reorganization
of the Tenth Street Y. M. G.. A.
A Steering committee, headed lV
the Rev Z. C. Dyer was elected to
confer with a similar committee
to be appointed by the white Y.
The second report is that COM
ing from the Inter-racial commit
tee in which it was stated that a
joint meeting of the Negro and
the white Ministers Alliance will
be held on Monday June 2, at II

WHAT HAPPENED WHEN
PETER AND CORNELIUS MET

Peter entered the home Of Cor
nelius, because he had learned that
God was no respecter of persons,
and would not withhold his pro-
vision of redemption from the
Gcntiles, any more than he would
from the Jew. Peter preached
to Cornelius and his friends, wit
Messing to Jesus Christ as Saviour
and Lord. While Peter was speak
ing, the Holy Spirit came upon
them just as he had come at Pente
cost that inaugurated the preach
ing of the Gospel to all nations.
PREJUDICE THE WORLDS

 Tokyo's six million conform re- luctantly to the old American say ing about rolling up the sidewalks with the sunset.
 They eat and drink by the clock and rule, and a midnight snack is out of the question, because all res- taurants are darkened and closed at 10 o'clock.
 The crowds are homeward bound early rather than late. The last transportation of any sort shuts down before a. m. Brown on Gaudy Clothes
 Partisans of the new order and a simple life frown on gaudy clothes, so many a frivolous woman has re- ceived a scolding as she strolled the Ginza in her finery.
 It was expected the geisha girls would be hard hit by the order that they could entertain only from 5 p. m. until Il at night. Instead their pocket books are filled with money. The passing of the dance halls and of the public restaurants of an amusement type virtually drove cus- toners the way. of the geishas.
 The movie houses still operate, with capacity crowds on hand, but native and German shows have re- placed the usual American features to large extent.
 Dances are out of the question, even in a private home, for a permit must be obtained from the police.
 Saves Electricity
 Another reason for the shadowy dark-riot SO frequently mentioned is to conserve electricity. The limit of beer which may be sold to a per- son is one bottle.
 Perhaps the greatest change has been wrought in the Imperial Hotel, which for years has been a haven for fastidious travellers. Solemn boy sans come pattering past at Il o'clock to switch off the lights, to inquire, as to whether last drink of Japanese whiskey is wanted and to say good night.
