Sell Hemes to
Come to America
Wahsington, Aug. 25.?The transfer
to foreign ports of a pert of the
machinery of the Bureau of Immigration,
as proposed in a resolution by
Chairman Johnson of the House Immigration
Committee, will obviate
turning back hundreds of immigrants
arriving at ports who have sold their
homes to come to America, Secretary
Davis said in a statement made public
today.
The measure proposes to manitain
two agents at each of the principal
ports abroad, one a member of the
Public Health Service and one from
the immigration bureau. The selection
of immigrants would operate through
the visa system, which requires the
immigrant to procure from his government
a passport which must be
vised by an American consular officer
before he can embark for the United
States. This visa, it is proposed,
wnnlil h#? franfi'd onlv a ft.pr inctnoc
tion by the immigrant and health inspectors.
At present the Secretary of Labor
said, the immigrant has no assurance
that he will be permitted to land in
this country. Many cases of a pathetic
nature are appealed to the Secretary
daily.
Recently a child of two years was
ordered deported in custody (t( his
mother on account of ringworm of
the scalp. The family had saved for
years, looking forward to life in the
United States, and had sold all they
had at a sacrifice, intending to become
citi"ens.
"The family thus separated," Secret-rv
Davis said, '"must cease to be
a happy family, must go back to Poland,
whence they came, to misery
and want, for they had used their
money from the sale of their possessions
in coming to this country."
Other cases, the secretary said
would be humorous if they were not
so pathetic.
"A certain Hebrew merchant," he
said, "'sent his brother passage mone>
and offered him $20 a week in his
store, the passage money to be re^
turned a little at a time. Upon arrival,
the immigrant testilied that his
brother had sent him money and
promised him a job. Technically this
was a violation of the contract labor
law, and the brother denied that he
had advanced the money and offered
the immigrant a job. Whereupon the
immigrant brother became indignant
and declared in effect that he had
been 'double crossed' little knowing
that he was signing his warrant for
deportation."
The illiteracy test in many cases
works a hardship, the Secretary said
but maintenance of agents abroad car
prevent much suffering due to ignor
anoe of the law.

1 Memorial Fund to Dr. n
And Mrs. Clifford t
i
A memorial in imperishable granite
to be placed at the graves of Dr. and c
Mrs. B. G. Clifford, of Clifford Semi- a
nary, is what we are seeking. This g
stono to be erected through the af- s
fectionate effort of the old Seminary n
! girls, and of those who have been r
helped by.the quiet sleepers below.
How fondly do our memories dwell B
on the old Seminary days, when we s
, studied in a real "home school." D?. d
and Mrs. Clifford so wisely and so g
lovingly taking the places of our pa- p
rents from whom we were separated, r
The oftimes needed reproofs, the gentle
admonitions, the affectionate urg- b
ings to do our best along all lines, v
the tender leadings towards Christ- a
like living, all these things we recall a
with moistened eyes, since "they have v
left us." v
After finishing school, how the old b
I Seminary girls used to love to go b
back "home" it seemed to us. How
i interested Dr. and Mrs. Clifford were
in us, and in what we. were trying to tl
i accomplish of good in the world. How G
wisely did'they still advise us and en- ii
courage us. After the lapse of 30
! years we see this so plainly today. n
| Are they dead? Nay, not so; they s
will always live in the hearts of more Ii
than a thousand girls whom they edu- ft
; cated with loving care. We wish to c<
I show our affection for our old teach- w
I ers by erecting a shaft to their mem- a
j ory, and we are trying to reach every :
; girl who attended the Seminary, for|cj
' we know how hurt each one will be if D
; she has no part in this last expression
I of our loving gratitude. Please send ci
i your contribution or pledge to Mrs. a:
W. H. Burris, Union, S. C\, who has fj
I been appointed treasurer of this fund, ol

Race Suicide Increasing
Boton, Aug. 22.?Is race suicide in
reasing among college graduates";
laurice Ricker of the United States
ublic Health Service says that it'is
nd quotes statistics. Some college
residents are inclinde to doubt the
inclusions drawn by the Health Serice
official and think his figures givt
wrong impression. Others say thai
"om lack of statistics of their owti
ley are not prepared to discuss tht
ibject. They admit that Mr. Ricker^
gures are startling and that thej
resent a disquieting view of the fuire.
Addressing the recent convention ol
he National Education Associatior
l Des Moines, la., Mr. Ricker was
uoted as follows: "Investigation bj
le federal public health service ovei
period of years indicates that the
rogeny of one thousand graduates
rom such institutions as Harvard
rale, Princeton, Vassar and SmitJ
'ill not exceed 50 in 100 years from
ow." He proceeded to compare the
esults of a similar canvass amon?
literate foreigners ena cni.l if ;-.a;
ated that in a like period the origina
housand would be multiplied at leasi
hundred times.
Frederick L. Allen, secretary of th<
larvard University Corporation pro
uced some figures of his o^vn fi'on
he Harvard records. He said:
"Mr. Ricker's assertion would seen
t first reading to give the impressioi
hat colege students have on the av
rage less than one child apiece. Thii
s not so among Harvard graduate!
t any rate. Among the classes 1881
0 at Harvard, the last ten classe:
fhose situations are available am
nay be considered fairly complete
he average number of men per clasi
iras2 48, of whom 183 married an<
ad 372 children, an average of 2.0<
hildren per married graduate, or 1.51
hildren per capita for the whoh
lass. The Yale figures for the samt
eriod are similar. The birthrati
mong Harvard graduates decline!
uring the past half century. The de
line, however, was less sharp in th<
lass between 1870 and 1890 than i
ad been previously; and a situatioi
rhich is disquieting at best, seemi
hus to be showing a gradual ten
ency to right itself."

1 Turkish Men will not
look at Unveiled Women
Angora, July 26.?Turkish men still
* refuse to look upon unveiled Turkish
i women when passing them in the
s streets or on the roads, despite the atj
tempt of the latter to adopt the
preachments of Halide Hanum and
: other workers for the freedom of wo,
man in Asia Minor.
According to our customs, it is im;
polite to flirt in public or address or
r look on the face of our women, and I
1 can't break the custom," explained a
; Turkist officer travelling with the cor
respondent.
In the Nationalist capital of An
gora Halida' Hanum Mufide Ferid Hanum,
the author and wife of the for!
| mer minister of finance, and many
uint'i womt'n wno cuiiie out irom i^oni
stantinople to support the Nationalr
ist movement, go about the streets or
ride horseback with their veils turned
j back and.folded into a handsome head1
dress, modelled after the Russian
f style.
But outside of Angora, despite the
- example set by American women of
charity organizations, or of the example
of Greek and Armenian women,
most of the Turkish women strictly
maintain the old custom.
This applies not only to women of
- the households but also to the many
' women seen working in the fields or
i along the roads, driving ox carts or
, donkeys laden with army supplies, or
i wheat being exported to Russia.
i The custom of veiling has long been
- modified to the extent that the face
! may be shown freely to the men of
t the village or of the party with whom
, the women may be working o"r travels
ling, but so soon as a stranger, wheth\
er Turk or European approaches, the
' veil is drawn. If the stranger is a
Turk he looks straight ahead, as if j
the women were not .present. If the
European or American turns his head
i to catch a glimpse of the women, they
5 hurriedly pull the veil closer, so only
r the eyes can be seen. The older the
woman, the closer the veil is drawn.
> As .the pretty gauze or .thin cloths
} of pre-war days, white, blue, black or
( brown cannot be had, the veils are of!
ten of coarse white cotton, and in the
! case of the working women, the cloth
. may be a stiff heavy cotton which
r Serves as a sun bonnet. Sometimes
1 the headpiece drops to the waist or'
1 further and can scarcely be distinl
guished from the loose, flowing garments
so characteristic of the Orient.
. If the wearer be very poor, the veil
and other garments may be but a
~ crazy quilt thing of patches of all
colors and* thicknesses, pathetically
mended and browned by sun and
weather. _

For twenty hours this ?ood is,
baked?one reason you like ^
it?another reason why it
digests so easily.
One of the Important things in connection vwith
any cereal food is to have \t thoroughly baked or
cooked. For baking or cooking changes the standi
of the grains. '
Grape-Nuts is the longest baked of all cereal foods.
It is scientifically baked at carefully regulated temperatures
for 20 hours. This is one of the reasons
why Grape-Nuts digests so easily; why it-agrees
with many people who cannot take any other form
of cereal without producing fermentation.
A goodly part of Grape-Nuts is converted into
dextrose, ready to be immediately assimilated by
the system, and yield strength and energy. A
further portion has partially undergone this change,
while there remains sufficient unchanged cereal to
strengthen the digestive organs. It is then in a
condition to meet the various requirements of the
digestive system.
If you want to eat a most strengthening and nourishing
food, and one that will digest more readily, go
to your grocer today and get a package of GrapeNuts.
Eat it with stewed fruit or as a cereal with
milk or cream; or make it into an appetizing pudding.

Every member of the family will eqjoy its delicious
flavor and wholesomeness.
