sense of domesticity.
Party Lime GOz Hogs
We WERE successful in wangling pig sound
out of the French commercial attache and
as might be expected, it isn't Oink-Oink It's
Omeee-Oxeee, which is practically pig-par for
''yes-yes" in the French language. The party
line for Russian hogs is ch1oo-ch7oo M'roo-
h'yOO, deeply gutturaD.
We asked our Russian informant
whether Soviet children ever sing a song
entitled, ''OId Macdonald Had A COIIec-
tivized Farm, Eel, Eel, O." This ditty
it appears, does not exist behind the Iron
Curtain. And it's just as well, we say. for it
would sound like this: with Uas-rGs here,
h1OO-k'TOO there here Gas, there Gas, every
where c0S-U0S."

around for centuries uttering one measly
word. If you think people see eye-to-eye on
what that word is, you're sadly mistaken.
Moo is American. The French have the pi-
quaint notion that Bossy gives out with
nasal NsesGk (pronOunced as ''mur" in demr).
To give nseNh fair test, the writer's caves
dropped ON shipment of Normandy cattle
being unloaded from a transatlantic feighter.
All we can say is that these cows may have
been saying nseMh when they left Cherbourg,
but they certainly were ~sOO-isg like mad by
the time they reached Hoboken.
In India, a country where COWS are sacred,
they never say moo. Ganges COWS say moe
rhymes with sctmoe). This is pretty hard to
believe. In fact if America had cows who
said moe, we'd probably worship them, too.
Frankly we don't know what to make of the
rooster situation. Maybe Americans are too
sleepy at four O'Clock in the morning to give
a hoot what these squawky alarm clocks are
shouting. But Wen tell you one thing: the
rest of the world is sharply opposed to us in
the cOck-G-dOOdIe-dO department In fact,
Europe presents a more united front ON
roOsters than on any issue since Charlie
magne. Germany. Spain and Italy are all
agreed that what this bird is trying to say is
kikiriki Ckee-kee-ree-kee), qniQmiriqui and
chicckiriccAi. respectively. In Spanish speaking
countries. young roosters say quiqMiriqni. but
the old ones go qMiqssfriG OOOO. France devi-
ates slightly IN favor of cOcOTieO; Japan votes
for kOkekkOkO al far cries from cOck-G-
dOOdLe-dO.
Most of the Western world goes along with
the u S. conviction that ducks quack. But
you can't argue Chinese out of the certainty
that Cantonese ducks say Gb-Gb. Ducks in
Japan go around spouting gG-gG; Arabic ones
-6Gt-6Gt; Rumanian - mGc-NsGc. If you
should ever go duck hunting in Germany and

all right II but so do frogs.
The cats of the world present a fairly solid
front. Should you on trip around the globe
be suddenly awakened in the middle of the
night by nsi0OW, it would be pretty safe to
throw shoe at the back fence. You would
hit a cat. This holds true everywhere except
in Arabic-speaking lands and Japan. A diplo-
mat from the Land of the Rising SUN insisted
that Nipponese cats say nyGknyGh. In Arab
territory, felines express themselves under
ordinary circumstances with n0u-n0u, except
during the mating season in February when
they switch to the more romantic ns0sc-OO,w.
GaxAIed Message
lHE dog is supposed to be mans best friend.
That's why it's so flabbergasting how people
have managed to garble the message this poor
animal has been trying to convey all these
years. Spanish dogs. for instance; seem to have
some chronological kinship with American
Indians. In their native habitat, Spanish
cookers say how-hOtC OauJau written in Cas-
tilian). French poodles in Alsace sit on the
banks of the Rhine barking oXG-oita (wa-wa),
while lonely Dachshunds staring back at
them from the German side fill the air with
UGas-OGM. 0GM-oGu, rGA-pGu (vow-vow). It's all
very well for the Schuman Plan to interna-
tionalize coal. But we suggest they get busy
on the problem of standardizing the European
bark. OuG-om0 and OGu-uGu. only mile apart
geographically, are poles apart spiritually.
AS one goes progressively eastward, the
ways of the dog become more and more in
scrutable. The Turks are under the impression
that their hounds say hOo-hOU, hou-hov. Nor is
there any arguing with the Russians. Wolf
hounds invented barking. And believe it or
not, dogs in Moscow gather around the Krem-

of Vancouver Island claim that whales say
hwx under normal conditions, and beu-ca
when excited Surprisingly enough, the Rus
sian Eskimos living on the Siberian side OF
the Bering Strait are in perfect accord with
the capitalistic Nutka tribe on this point.
From the mouth of whale, then, comes
our brightest promise of world accord. His
htx is the only fact on earth regarding animal
sounds which observers accept without
quibble. If some day we could all attnne our
ears to accept hux as belonging to whale -
and not to the otter the sloth or the Afghan
istan loon i it might be the rallying point
for glorious era of peace on earth and good
will between men and all the animals in

Dressings By Ralph Stein
TEAFRlC through book in the Italian lan-
Ia guage the other day. we were suddenly
brought up short by the following passage:
The little dog ran through. the streets of
Naples barking bOO-bOO. bOO-bOO. bOO-bOO at
all the passersby."
We expected the next sentence to announce
that this dog who spouted bOO-bOO had been
whisked away to the nearest canine psyche
ward for observation But when the author
failed to comment on this pOoch's peculiar
behavior, a disconcerting thought dawned
on us.
Could it be that all the world doesn't see
eye-tO-eye on the fact that dogs say either
bOsU-,OOU or iUOot-sOOCf? Gould it be that
ROSTERS cOck-0-dOOdIe-dO in one country and
cOck-0- -dOOdIe-dOmt in another? We'had always
taken it for granted that even though the
world was divided on many issues, at least
everybody agreed that cows go moo and
ducks say qH0ck-QxGck.
Deciding that these questions merited
survey, we Immediately phoned the Italian
Embassy in Washington. Our question as to
how dogs bark on the Italian peninsula
caused furry of embarrassment at the other
end of the line A charge d'afaires refused
point blank to bark over the telephone.
Finally, however, an underling agreed to
bark. 1t came through sharp and unmistak-
able: bOOboO, bOO-bOO (spelled in Italian bI-bs).
IntexnatiOnaI Ba1nyaxd
The news that 100000 Italians are con-
vinced their dogs bark like Bing Crosby was
provocative enough to warrant full-scale
investigation of the whole international barn
yard So for the next few days. the telephone
wires between us and foreign embassies, con-
sulates and UN delegations buzzed while
diplomats alternately barked, neighed. mooed,
roared and meowed into the telephone.
We must admit that our hopes for world
unity have not been greatly heartened by
our findings Take the COW, for instance.

EDUCATION OF THE NEGRO
PRIOR TO 1900

Education of the Negro in Min
nesota was neglected until 1887.
One reason, perhaps. was that the
first Negroes here were an
older group. However. colored peo-
pie Just were not considered for
education until pressure was
brought by the Negroes them
selves and by philanthropic organ
iEations

the state by way of the under

his face.
He was a weeping mother. a
sickly baby, or a humble, childish
man, creeping eagerly. indifferent

80 NEGROES
The first census that recorded
Negroes in Minnesota was taken
In 1850, n males and IS females.
a total Of 80, were listed.
BY 1850 the census recorded an
increase to 259. During these early
days in Minnesota. the Negro
dominated the field OF barbering.
As early as 1882 the Minnesota
Pioneer commented on barber
shops owned by the Negroes
Their barber shops are frequented
by the bachelor whites who meet
there as on a social exchange
During this early period, the
1soos, the Negro was stin cowed,
and kept to himself. Wrote the
Minnesota Pioneer during that
period:

Such comment, sometimes COM

often written about the Negro.
Some thought II their civic duty
to concern themselves with the
Negro. They almost Immediately
looked on the black man as a pro-

year, the Black Law would have
required all persons having Negro
blood, who came TO Minnesota to
live TO give a bond Of three to
five hundred dollars as a guaran-
tee OF good behavior.
BILL LOSES
Through the efforts Of Watson,
Joe Roulette, Peter Roy, and Nor
rison, the bill was defeated at its
third reading Thus, Minnesota
was saved from the disgrace OF
having such law ON its statutes.
