GLACKIN ReElected t tfce State Saaate . fUlkw As is known,. pneumonia is a deadly disease. It kills its victims in, short order. And because this is true and because enoagh is now. known aboat it to enable people to avoid it, it should command the -thoughtful attention of everyone. Pneumonia Is caused by a germ which is conveyed from obc to another: The patient or well persons with .the' germs in the mouth, throat or nose by careless coughing, sneez ing and splttiag can scatter the germs in the air for others to breathe; or on things where they can mingle with the dust which may be stirred up float in the air and be taken into the res piratory .passages and In that way reach the. Isags. It is : known that extremes, of tem perature either cold or 'hot, together with dampness, have a lowering ef fect upon the resistance of the indi vidual to pneumonia infection. In overheated and poorly -rentilated' liv ing places, and work places are fotrad the conditions which seem to be' fav orable lor. the spread pf the disease. Overheated air is always lacking in moisture and breathing it dries the mucous, membranes of the air -passages, thus causing the condition which invites not only pnenmoniabst other respiratory ailments. Here are -some seasonable sugges tions which, if followed, will h,elp yofu to escape pneumonia: 1. Be regular in your habits of liv ing as -to diet .and proper rest 2. Avoid undue and prolonged.ex-jreccnty pos,ure to wet and 'cold. 3. Get as much exercise in the open air as you can. 4. Dress so that you will feel com fortable hi the house and equally as comfortable when out -of doors in a lower temperature. 5. Keep your living rooms at a tem perature not exceeding 70 degrees. For people in normal health and prop- y from tke 17th Seaaterial District erly clad, 68, degrees is better. 6. Keep your feet dry and warm. 7. Do sot cough or sneeze in any one's face or allow others to cough or sneeze openly in jour immediate presence. S. finally, remember that pneu monia is highly contagious and that there are persons who are carriers and that when they sneeze or cough open ly in the air close to you, you are in danger of becoming infected. By observing these suggestions you can greatly lessen your chances of "catching" pneumonia ;and be more likely to get through the winter with out needing the services of the under taker. 0 In most cases pneumonia comes to those who do not take proper care of themselves; and those who have it, pass it on to others.

The" stench jdid not jcorae diredly into our nostrils. Had Hannibal triumped over Scip io the dark races today would be 'the ruling people and English would not now be the leading language Tiy which most of the 'civilized' "world m;Jces its wants known. There would havebecn no Dutch trading vessel .bringing black slaves to America. America; no doubt, would still Tie the refuge for the low brow element driven putiof England and continental Europe. Therefore The Chicago Tribune would never have become known. The Negro Is not crossing any line except the Mason and TJixon line? The line crossing is always done by the white race. Who invented the first mullato? Let the Tribnne an swer that Question. Whoever did it was nurturing a whirlwind from wliose reaping the white race cannot escape. Which is better, marriage or adul tery? Let .the Tribune answer that question. Is it always the Negro who will live in adultery with the white woman? Or is it always the white man who will not marry the colored woman? If' the Negrb marries the white woman it is not because he went across the line to get her. It is because she- came herself across the line. The conquering, money-making man filled to the brim with commercial ac tivity becomes brusque, cold, and morose, has no fancies, delights only in the hard, stern rules of trade and barter and forgets how to love, to be affectionate, starves out the human na ture of his souL and to-his women folks is not -genteel, kind, and con siderate with them, and is neglectful in the exercises of .those graces that gives to woman, her little world to inhabit When he is not sublime; he is most ridiculous. Take, for, instance, the bright lights, the "great white way, Broadway, the sportij night Jife, the orgy and the grand debauch, the dis tricts where veiled women maraud the streets. The Negro possesses a kind, tractile, docile nature, respectful, obliging, and inoffensive, friendly and cannot go enough out of his way to help you If he likes you. He dresses well, makes pleasant cosgoaay, m yieWiagand can sympathize, 'with women of any race, because the same brutal nature that repels the kindly and affectionate heart of women is also brutal tn his over lord spirit toward the Negro man. Business, trade and commercial ac tivity, and- wanting to know all things, and prove all things, he lias lost the vital spark of life, and love. The am munition of his animal forces he can not retrieve by further making him self a cave man, or a football star. There Is as much in being too mascu line as there Is in "being slightly ef feminate, . "Love is to man a thing apart, but it is woman's whole existence." She tires of the imperious overlord. His lack of prerequisite forces to gratify, satisfy, and make her happy in the way she determines, sickens her soul, makes him a loathsome creature when in her sight, and she .finds the love of her quest, womanlike, in strange and unexpected quarters. Having manners goes a long way. when a wbite man, has none at all what -chance has he with women? When a colored man shows all of those excellent qualities of both heart and mind what woman is. it that could not admire him? Differences in color have but Jittle bearing in the ease. Necessity, - they say, becomes the mother of invention and so the care worn, lovelorn, heart sick girl, disap pointed, seeing nothing before .her but a butterfly existence, a doll, or an un- loved creature, kills bersejf, drowns in the lake, or crosses over into the color line, marries, is happy in the freedom of her-spirit and-her will,' the reward of her heroism. The Negro Is virtual ly anew' man. Thosaads-of 'years of lasdviousness, harems, raormomsm and the res of k has-indeed made the wbite man stakalaest without any in fim'te variety- The Negro, may hare come down otit of the tree sinee the white man, but he. is down, aad the Tribune, waile- sufferhw a Aoasaad fits, fets loose some one of its South ern editors to write fussy nansense abost.what he thinks wiU happeit to the N"egro bedrase he marries a white girl aow'and ihen. The Tribune is really mad at the Hearst daily papers because they have; taken the jouraaf- ituc field, away from rt,-and chaoses to make the Negm race the goat.

Let us name, a few great men' whose very existence came from crossing ihc color line: Alexander Dumas, the great Russian poet laureate Pushkin, Frederick Douglass Booker T. Vaih ingtonj Alexander Hamilton, and a few bg mulatto white people here in Chicago whose heritage belongs on both sides of theline. Sometimes we think that they who make the most noise about color tare using the eraser themselves trying to wipe out traces of mixtures they are counscious of. in themselves. ' URBAN LEAGUENOTES- Mrs. Sayre Leaves The league regrets to announce that Mrs. Sayre, who has been connected with the employment departmentj for about .two jrears, .is leaving.' Mrs. Sayre," before coming to the league, was a volunteer war worker with the Red Cross. When the war closed she felt -that there would be other work for a woman to do who had been making bandages and doing canteen service and other work of the Red Cross. She organized, therefore, the U. S. Club, a 'group of women with no effort or purpose to raise money fpr the purpose of their own organi zation, but merely to be of service in post-war needs. One of the first of these post-war needs to come to the attention of the ,U. S. Club was the Soldiers' and Sailors' Club. These ladies helped to raise money to es tablish .this club, which later became the Community house at 3201 South Wabash, avenue, and Mrs.. Sayre be-. gan work at the Community House. The Urban League in the meantime had succeeded in introducing into Montgomery Ward & Company a number of colored girls to- do clerical and stenographic work. A welfare worker was thought desirable at the branch where these girls were em ployed. Mrs. Sayre was recommended for that position and served there with great success. The officials of :he company wrote a letter to the league in which they testified their ap preciation of her services and their regret that the business depression forced them -to close the unit in which Mrs. Sayre was working. From Mont gomery Ward & Company she came to the Urban League an'd has worked in the employment department in the placement of women and girls until now. Mrs. Sayre goes to another big industrial establishment where her services are needed to care for the working conditions of about 350 col ored women employees. The Urban League regrets her going, but feels complimented that when such a per son was desired the Urban League had the privilege of furnishing her. Mrs. Sayre has the respect and affec tion of the members of the staff and the - many friends she made while working with the league. Keith School Keith school has a real principal.

Five sets of triplets and two sets of twins, born to Mr. and Mrs. Frank Scott in ten years of married life, establish a record for the Middle West, perhaps for the entire country. Mr. and Mrs. Scott and thirteen living children boarded a westbound train in search of sufficient land to provide sustenance and employment for the whole family. "We can't carry a Sunday school class madam," remarked the conduc tor to the mother as she offered one fare. JIBut they are my children," Mrs. Scott replied. The family Bible was prodoced from a load of luggage and it dis closed the record. There were Ash bel, Archer and Austin, each 4 years old; Arthur and Arnold, each 3J4; Allen, Almon ind Albion, each 2J; Alfred, Albert and Adolph, each 18 months, and Abel and Abner, each 6 months. Mr. and Mrs. Scott are among the salt of the earth and i? the good Lord continues to permit them to live in this world they will soon be able to re populate the whole earth. Editor.
