Sun Long Worshiped in Egypt and India Since nothing was known of the ro tation of the earth In the days of long ago, one can easily imagine how very real yet mysterious the movement of the sun must huve seemed and how natnrally It was an object of wonder and reverence. The sun’s daily jour ney, Its contest with the darkness and its final victory at the dawn of the new day are ideas which have led to endless stories. Ra, the great sun god of the Egyp tians, was thought to travel in a ship across the waters of the sky by day and return during the night through the kingdom of the dead. This god was always represented either as a hawk or as a man with a hawk’s head In accordance with the belief that the hawk always flies toward the sun. In India the sun was worshiped as the god Agni, who rode in a shining chariot drawn by blood-red horses. In ancient Hindu art this golden-haired god was portrayed as having a double face, seven tongues and seven arms. The number seven was held sacred by the Hindus and was thus employed to symbolize the numerous and varied duties performed by Agnl. Ear of City Dweller Has No Rest Period Between beats the heart rests, and between breaths the longs and dia phragm have an instant’s respite. All the nerves and muscles of the body have some time when they are re lieved of duty except those of the ear in the noisy city. This is pointed out by ear specialists, who say some thing must be done about it to low^er the amount of deafness. City noises going on day and night keep the ear drum and the tiny bones about it in a constant state of vibra tion. People accustomed to them sleep comfortably through normal night sounds because the nerves are adapted to something like a temporary discon nection witli the brain centers. Nocturnal periods of rest for the ears seem as remote for the average city dweller as the pot of gold at the foot of the rainbow. His days and nights are a bedlam of motor ex hausts and horns, the footsteps and voices of passersby and the thousand and one other noises of the city street. —Lebanon Reporter. The Birth of London No one can say when London be gan ; the beginning is lost in the mists of time. London is first mentioned in a passage In Tacitus, a Roman his torian whose uncle. General Agicola, spent most of his active military ca reer in Britain. Tacitus describes the Roman London of A. D. 61 when it was sacked by Queen Boadicea—the British warrior-queen. It is one of the strangest things In London's history, that she should first appear at the moment when she was sacked by a British queen, and that that queen’s statue should now stand in a place of honor under the palace of Westminster, looking down the Thames. It Is strange, but it marks that peculiar position of London as the meeting place of the races out of which the English people were made. Mental Transformation In the course of some investigations of epilepsy, a French neurologist se cured some specimens of writing be gun before epileptic seizure and con tinued during that state. His report is that the part written in a normal and lucid state is correct as to form and content, while the part written in an epileptic state is Incorrect In both content and form. The defects in the writing appear suddenly, with no transitional phase, and affect the penmanship and the composition. The letters have become curved, the out lines have been enlarged and the forms have been changed. The com position is a strange, Incoherent con glomeration of words and ideas. Wealth From “Scrap” By the system of reclamation of the scrap pile now being generally fol lowed by nearly all the railroad com panies, bright new tin backets, cups and other articles are being manufac tured from old metal roofing, empty powder and carbide containers and other junk salvaged. Old broom han dies are made Into staffs for signal flags, old canvas Is transformed Into curtains for the locomotive cabs and coaches, steam-pipe coverings and aprons. Thrift practices such at these save the carriers hundreds of thou sands of dollars annually. Personal Work Years ago C. 11. Spurgeon, advocat ing personal work, said: “If you had one hundred empty bot tles before you. and threw a pail of water over them, some would get a little In them, but most would fall outside. If you wish to fill the bot tles, the best way Is to take each bot tle separately and put a vessel full of water to the bottle’s mouth.” That ts successful personal work. Ju*t On* non Bobby, a live-year-old Irvington boy, has reached the Inquisitive age The other day he was particularly annoy ing, and his mother was busy an swering his questions. Finally she eould stand It no longer “Bobby, stop asking those foolish questions and run out and play,” she ordered. “Oh, Just one more,” pleaded Bobby. “Say, If I was twins, which one would I be?”— Indianapolis News. SAYS WOMAN TOOK MONEY IN HER SLEEP Senatobia, Miss., Dec. 7.—(A. N. P.)—A new defense against a charge of crime has been set up by attor neys for Julia Jackson, charged with the theft of |20. The money was found in her possession, but it is claimed Julia is a somnambulist, and her defense is that she took the money while asleep. ( 1 MARRIAGE RY MAIL ERROR, VERDICT OF PARTICIPANTS Husband Cost Price of Postage Stamp and la Not Worth It, Says Wife. Kansas City, Mo.—For a paltry 2-cent stamp Uncle Sam transports a letter and thereby changes the desti nies of perhaps a score of persons. No one knows what store of trag edy. romance, happiness, or anxiety is packed into a half dozen envelopes in a letter carrier's hands. Surely Nellie Wallace of Tchula, Mich., and Deacon Joel Seet of El Paso had no Idea how they were shaping their fu tures when they addressed their en velopes to the “Get Acquainted” col umn of a western newspaper. It’s getting ahead of the story to : mention It at this time, but—Nellie ' later reflected after Joe became her husband: “He cost me the price of a 2-cent stamp, and. believe me, he’s not worth I it to me!” Joe’s and Nellie’s was literally a “mail-order courtship.” Nellie’s first \ letter was printed in the magazine’s 1 column: “I’m not a flapper, but would like to i correspond with men and women be tween the ages of twenty-five and ! thirty-two." Out of an avalanche of replies Nel : lie singled out Joe Sleet’s as the most I interesting, and there ensued a cor , respondents that, within a month, he ! haved like a thermometer on an Au | gust day. “Dear Nellie” became j “Sweetheart.” Photographs and locks i of hair accompanied statistical de ; scripfions. Letters were signed with multiple “X’s" and pictures of bleed ing hearts, until Nellie found herself aboard a Texas-bound train to become ; the bride of the ardent deacon. The wedding took place in the home I of Joe and his mother. Joyous In ! their new-found love and in their es cape from the boredom if single life (each had been married before), the couple felt that a Cupid in letter car : rier’s uniform certainly had functioned i well. I Then the mother-in-law trouble be I gan; the young Mrs. Sleet and the el j der Mrs. Sleet found they had noth i ing in common except their last name, i Next tlie blissful bridegroom discov | ered he had failed to make sure of his I wife's cooking ability.

Prize Dramatist Is Found to Be Jailbird Turin.—Kiecardo Testa, the latest sensation in the Italian literary world, is known as “the Jailbird dramatist.” The magazine of dramatic art Com oedia recently organized a competition among young writers for the best comedy and offered several money prizes. Competitors were instructed to send in tbeir plays under a pen name and inclose a sealed envelope containing their real name and ad dress. When the author of the winning play was traced, it was found that he was in prison, serving a sentence for theft. Inquiries showed that the young dramatist had already been sentenced for theft on three former occasions and had twice been interned In a sana torium for the insane. informed of his success by the prison governor, the dramatist expressed his ■ i'f '<-tiiin and stated he hoped to be released from prison In time to itness tile first performance of his play, which is called "Conchiglla” or “Sliell.” Baby’s Chance for Life Twice Those of 1912 Washington.—The 1923 baby has twice’the chance of living his first year out and attaining a healthy, happy childhood than bad the baby of 1912. announces the children’s bureau of the Department of Labor. Birth registration now Is complete In about 90 per cent of the United States. In the first year the census bureau published birth statistics—1915 —of every 1,1X10 babies born In the birth registration area 100 died before their first birthday. Provisional figures indicate that only 64 out of every 1,000 Infants died before their first birthday In 1927. This means a saving of approximately eo.otxi infant lives last year. The 1928 baby, the children’s bureau points out. comes to a mother who is better pre pared to care for him than the mother of 1912, and who may supplement her own knowledge from community re sources to a greater extent. Sidewalks Unearthed in'Ruins in Ukraine Odessa Ukraine.—Archeological ex cavations near Nikolaev this year have yielded exceptionally important results. There was discovered 8 broad street with sidewalks and rem nants of buildings dating from the Sixth century. Workers als\ found a block of Hel lenic ruins. The expedition collected about 6,000 objects of historical In terest including crockery, accessories of religious rituals and rare frag ments. forty Russian archeologists participated in the work. MISSISSIPPI LAD KILLS STEPFATHER Prentiss, Miss., Dec. 7.—(A. N. P.) —Joe Solomon was shot and killed by his 13-year-old stepson at his home east of Prentiss. The shooting fol lowed a family row. The stepfather and the hoy grappled for possession of a gun and in the struggle it was discharged, the load striking Solomon in the chest and killing him instantly. " Pumpkin Put to Many Uses in New England Long ago, when vegetables were scarce, even in summer, and not to be had at all in wiuter, the pumpkin was put to extraordinarily diversified uses. With It New England housewives made pumpkin bread, now a lost art. Pump kin was also used In the making of beer, custard, molasses, vinegar and 5 pies. Small wonder the early New Eng landers, as It is related in Peter’s <Jen ! eral History of Connecticut, consid ered the pumpkin “one of the greatest blessings and held very sacred in New England.” Since earliest Colonial days the pumpkin has been the homely symbol in America of that season of mellow fruitfulness that separate summer from winter. Although its name is of French origin the pumpkin has be come an Institution typically Amer ican. The etymonogy of the word can be traced from the French “pompon” In use before the colonization of America, ! through the stages of “pompion" and “pumpion” to “pumpkin.” And except in print and among precise speakers one today will encounter the colloquial “punkin” oftener than the literary j “pumpkin.” Singing Insects Bred as Pets by Japanese It Is In the summer that Japan’s traffic in singing insects becomes most | brisk. The largest wholesale insect store in the country offers its cus tomers a rich variety of little singing I friends. The emmna korogi, or cricket, can be had for the equivalent of a dime, but the kutsuwamushi, a noisier crea ture, fetches a quarter. During the i early summer season fireflies cost about a cent apiece, but the price drops as summer advances and 100 of the merry fellows can be purchased for as little as 75 cents. The chief insect store in Japan maintains three breeding stations in the suburbs of Tokyo, and it prides itself on supplying the imperial house with is indispensable bugs. A really fine insect cage sells for as much as $100, occupants and all. Protection of the Insects’ eggs calls for the highest skill, and under no circumstances are visitors allowed to enter the breeding grounds, whose pampered occupants live on mulberry leaves.—Living Age. Equal to the Occasion With scarcely a sound the luxurious car pulled before the seaside hotel, and an old gray-haired man descend ed. “My doctor advises me to stay whore the south wind blows contin ually,” he remarked to the manager. “Does it blow here?” “It does, sir,” returned the other, j “You are very fortunate to have stopped at exactly the right place. ! The south wind always blows here.” The old man stuck a moistened fin ger in the air. “Always?" he repeated. “Are you sure? It appears to be coming from the north just now.” “You’re right of course, sir. It's on its way back!” Bachelor’* Lament Reunion night at a certain club had brought two old friends face to face after an interval of some years. In the meantime, one of the two had tak en a wife. “Well, Harry,” he remarked, “tell me why you’ve never married.” “It’s like this,” replied the single one. “When I was quite young I re solved that I’d never marry until I met the ideal woman. I was difficult to please, but after four years I found her.” “Lucky beggar! And then—" “Oh, she was looking for the Ideal man,” came the heart-broken reply. Britith Royal Succonion The throne of Great Britain la hereditary in .the British house of Windsor with mixed succession, the sons of the king and their descend ants having precedence of daughters, but daughters and their descendants having preference over lateral lines. Thus, when the eldest child of a king Is a daughter and there are sons, the eldest son will succeed, to the exclu sion of the daughter. This occurred i in the case of Queen Victoria—her oldest child was Princess Victoria, I but she was succeeded on the throne : by her eldest son. Edward VIL Mutual Taste | Little Leslie had been dispatched | to the village grocer’s and told to pur | chase dog biscuits for the new pet. He returned half and hour later, and offered his father eightpence change out of half-a-crown. “What!” exclaimed his parent "Did they charge you all that?' Then he noticed the bag contained assorted cream cookies. “You see, daddie,” little Leslie ex plained, “ I thought I might Just as well get somethin’ doggie an’ me could both enjoy.”—London Answers. Tribute to Labor Labor Is life: from the inmost heart of the worker rises his God Igiven force, the sacred celestial life essence breathed Into him by Al ! mighty God; from his inmost heart awakens him to all nobleness—to all knowledge, self-knowledge and much else, so soon as work fitly begins.— Carlyle. SHOT PARALYZES AGED MAN Shreveport, La., Dec. 7.— (A. N.

NEGRO VOTES BREAK THE SOLID SOUTH Lively Interest Shown by Colored Voters in Both Parties in Dixie. Raleigh, N. C., Dec. 7—(Associ ated Negro Press)—In each of the ■ states affected, the Negro vote was • a definite part of the political rev olution which threw four southern states into the republican column. In North Carol.na there was unpre- '■ cedetited activity among Negro vot- * ers, men and women. Not since * 1908, when the Wilmington riots s threw consternation into the political J leaders of the group here and made < possible the grandfather clause in the ' North Carolina constitution, have s Negroes gone to the polls in such ‘ numbers. s In Durham county there were be- 1 tween 1,500 and 2,000 voters regis- 1 tered. The work of the Colored Vot ers’ league, J. H. Johnson of Salis- f bury, chairman, and MeCants And- < rews, secretary, urged qualifying, j ! which could be done by the simple 1 pro. ess of paying a poll tax and reg- < istering. C. C. Spaulding, J. M. 1 Avery, J- E. Shepard, and other lead- 1 ers worked quietly, but in Durham 1 county neither the white republicans or democratic organizations made * any effort to register Negroes. It 1 j is estimated that most of Durham’s * vote went republican. 1 Greensboro had 1,000 colored re- 1 publicans on its poll books. The ( democrats made a drive and added 1 2,000 more, white women being par- ( ticularly active in this work. It is I said A1 Smith received the majority 1 of the added 2,000. In Raleigh, 1 3,500 Negroes registered. An active Smith club is said to have influenced ' one-third of them. Winston-Salem was another center of activity. In most instances where Negroes voted for the republican national ticket, ^ they are said to have favored demo- 1 crats for the local state office be cause of the higher caliber of the 1 candidates and thvir distaste for the ' lily white republicans. North Caro- 1 lina’s clause had a ten-year provision ( enacted in 1898. It restricted suf- 1 frage to those whose grandfathers . had fought in previous wars or whose parents were entitled to vote. Its terms expired in 1908. In Virginia a strong Negro organ ization headed by Tiffany Tolliver of Roanoke, who worked under the di rection of State Chairman Aryell and Bascom Slemp, reported great activ ity. Florida and Texas likewise reg istered and voted numbers of Ne groes, although in Texas as in other southern states, the regular republi- j can and democratic organizations re- c fused to encourage Negroes to ex- j ercise their franchise. i - 1 1 PASTOR OF ST. JOHN’S ILL t - t Rev. I. S. Wilson, pastor of St. j John’s A. M. E. church, Twentyt- , second and Wiilis, has been confined , to his bed for several days with ill- ] ness. He hopes to be able to assume j j his duties by Sunday. < Historians Unable to Place Queen of Sheba The nationality of the queen of : Sheba, mentioned In the Bible In con nection with a visit to King Solomon, ; is unknown for certain. It is supposed, however, that "Sheba," is merely a variation of the word “Saba,” which was the name of a country on the lied sea in southwestern Arabia. Tills I region is now known as Yemen. The ; Sabeuns were dark-complexioned white 1 people and belonged to the same gen eral family of mankind as the He brews. They had extensive colonies in Africa, where they mingled with the Ethiopians, with whom they are : sometimes confused. The Abyssinlnns ! have a tradition that the queen of I Sheba who visited Solomon was a i monarch of their country and their I royal family claims descent from Men ' elek, an alleged son of the queen of j Sheba by King Solomon. The queen ; who made herself famous by ber spec tacular visit to King Solomon was very likely the same person known in history as Queen Balkts of the Sa beans.—Pathfinder Magazine. Wild Dave and a group of other country lads were spending the afternoon try ing to yoke up a couple of calves. Try as they would, they could catch only one calf, so Dave volunteered to be yoked up with It The frightened animal Immediately bolted, as soon us the straps were tightened, taking the yoked and helpless Dave along with it Away they went, careening into | trees and banging against fences, bumping and thumping. As soon as the other boys could recover a little from their gales of laughter, they set out to capture the assorted pair, and were advancing toward them, when the human half, in a warning tone, bogged "Come up easy, boys I We’re wild as heck I” Animal Weather Prophet* The cat always has been regarded by observant people as a reliable weather prophet When kitty rashes around wltb her caudal appendage high in the air, they gay "pussy has wind In her tall, it’s going to blow.” Fishermen declare that the cat and wireless as a weather prophet cannot compare wltb pigs. A pet pig In the codflshlng bark Seawell foretold storing in the Far North with such accuracy, they assert, that It saved the lives of all on board three times. Honrs in ad vance of a storm, the pig would run to and fro on deck squealing and leaping sideways. The fishermen made their preparations accordingly, and on each occasion the storm failed to take them unawares. SPORTS and AMUSEMENTS IOWARD DEFEATS LINCOLN 12-0 BEFORE BIG CROWD Washington, D. C., Dec. 7.— (A. I. P.)—Some twenty thousand rabid ootball fans, gathered from all sec ions of these United States, saw a uperior Howard team down a re uvenated and detrmined Lincoln leven here Thursday afternoon in he American league park. The core board read Howard 12, Lin oln 0. Again, for the fourth con ecutive time, the Lions had been breed to concede that the Bisons cere superior. The game was thrilling from be rinning to end and those who came xpecting to see a rout were in for i rude awakening and those who emained away from the game be ause they thought Howard would un roughshod over the Pennsylvan ins missed one of the best games of he season. It was a real football game with wo well coached elevens displaying brand of football of the highest ype. Brilliant and deceptive run iing attacks were shown by each earn, mixed with a whole lot of un anny and accurate passing. It was n the latter that Howard showed de ided superiority, completing ten asses for more than 160 yards. In act, it was the passing of the Bisons hat spelled the undoing of the Lions. V1LBERFORCE AND W. VA. BATTLE TO 13-13 DEADLOCK Cleveland, Ohio, Dec. 7.— (A. N. j '.)—Two determined, well matched levens met here at Luna park, 'hursday afternoon, and after sixty ninutes of battling the score was: Vilterforce 13. West Virginia 13. Vhile every man on each team ac uitted himself creditably, the giant Vu Fang Ward of Wilberforce was the hero of the game. Coming into the game when his team was trailing by one point, he booted a perfect placement kic kafter touchdown and tied the score. Along with Wu Fang's feat was a dash of 97 yards by McConnell of West Virginia for a touchdown, in the thir dquarter. The half had end ed, West Virginia 7, Wilberforce 6. At the offset Wilberforce started a drive down the field to the three yard line. After three tries, Lucas shot a pass toward Tynes, but Mc Connell intercepted it an dstepped off the necessary 97 yards for a touchdown. Wilberforce, however, was not through yet. Their blood was up and immediately following McCon nell’s run, Frank Galloway blocked a West Virginia punt and raced 20 yards for a touchdown. It was here that Wu Fang, who had been re moved from the game on account of injuries was sent in to make the kick which tied the score.

A. A. C. P. Throughout the history of the Ne :ro in America, court decisions have larified his relationship to the white ace. The Dred Scott decision comes eadily to mind as an event crystal ling two forms of sentiment which ater struggled for supremacy. Since he Civil War, hardly an important onstitutional question has come be ore the Supreme Court which has tot had some reference to the still exed and disputed question of the legro’s status in this country. This 3 true to the extent that the entire luestion of states’ rights, involving nany court cases that had nothing 1 lirectly to do with the American Ne rro, has hinged upon differences in ttitude on these problems mainly ectional. The effect of the Negro, and his >art in white America’s legal fabric Las occasioned a number of books ind could easily be made the subject f an extended study. Such a study vould show, we are convinced, that to single other set of problems has tad such a profound effect in deter nining the structure and phrasing of American law, and court interpreta ion of the law, as the problems aised by the Negro’s presence here. Our subject is necessarily more imtied than this broad consideration f the form and tendency of democ acy as expressed in the constitu ional provisions and statutes. We .re to consider primarily a few out tanding aspects of the Negro’s legal tatus during recent years as show ng something of his organic rela ions in the social structure of the ountry. The cases that have arisen or adjudication, and that will be onsidered here, touch democracy at, ts roots. They concern the right to larticipation in self-government; the ight to safety of the person and iroperty; the right to due process of aw; and questions of social proced ire ranging from Jim Crow on south :rn railways to the right to dine in a ■lew York restaurant or to sit in a Chicago theater. Perhaps the detailed consideration hould be prefaced with a general tatement that in many parts of the outh, up to the present, whe na Ne pro has been accused of a major rime against a white person, or even tas been a party in civil litigation, hat Negro has had no rights, legal or itherwise, which the white communi y feels bound to respect. The crime if lynching or mob murder makes nanifest an attitude toward law in his connection, which was voiced by Senator Walter F. George of Geor gia, for five year; a member of the Supreme Court of Georgia (quoted n Liberty Magazine, April 21, 1928, lage 10) : No statutory law, no organic law, no military law, supersedes the law of racial necessity and so cial identity.
