MAY 24, 1912. Appeals Court Bars Negroes From Using 'Elks’as Lodge Name ALBANY. N Y. May 24. Negro 'f-'.lks'' have no right to use the name "Elks" and are restrained in an in- HJnetlon which the court of appeals to day sustained. The court says that the name "Improved Benevolent and Protective Orde r of Elks of the World,” adopted in 1907 and so closely resem bling that of the Benevolent and Pro tective Older of Elks, is calculated to deceive-. The opinion was written by Judge Bartlett who holds that the ne gro organization might use the titles of officers, lint that the organization of ne groes should take another name. “PUSSY-FOOTED" SENATOR QUITS Crane. Seeing Defeat for Re election Ahead. Says He Will Retire. By JAMES J. MONTAGUE. WASHINGTON, May 24. —Senator ; Crane, of Massachusetts, one of the , three acknowledged leaders of the sen- : |:cte. the richest member of that body j land the one living s-nator who never: i made a speech in his life, has an • nounced that at the end of his present I term he will retire from public life for i all time. Senator Crane said: "Some months ago I definitely decided not to become a candidate* for re-election, but I iti | fended to defer making a statement to that effect until after the national con vention. I here is, however, a propo sition pending in the Massachusetts legislature for the nomination of I I nited Stat'S senators by popular j'ote. If this proposed law is enacted, a much earlier campaign for this of fi' is will be necessary, and I therefore make known my position at this time, that those who may be interested in becoming candidates may have the i fullest opportunity." ' fane's defeat for delegate-at-large! because he stood for Taft in the Mas , sachusetts primaries hurt him deeply. No one doubts he is convinced that he I would not survive the coming senato rial primaries. Powerful t-rt he is in the party, lie has always curled up under criticism. And the fusillade of it that has been directed at him since he took personal charge of the Taft campaign tor re-election has really driven him out of politics before he ever had a real personal fight. ' rane became a power in the senate dining his first term. At the retire- i ment of Senator Aldric h, he. with Pen- j rose of Pennsylvania and Smoot of I'tah, took active command of the sen ate. ' His methods \ ere utterly unlike those I of Aldrich. He never made a speech. Ho never issued orders. He never bul lied. Silently he* flitted in and out of ih>* chamber and committee rooms, whispering suggestions and pointing out easy ways to get things done. His! still small voice was always for com- i promise Inside the party, never with ! the enemy, l-’i'om the beginning the progressives f'-ll Hie force of his keen intellect. Al- - ways from cover lie fought them stub- I hornly. and often successfully. They • oiild seldom t race the opposition ho ■ irganized, but they usually suspected from whence it came. And it is due :o hl.- stratagems and schemes that th' reactionary forces did not crumble wii'n the retirement of Aldrich. ''ran*-, was dragged into rhe fight for ] Taft largely because of his dislike of , lie 'sevelt. The colonel once called him a "pussy-footed busybody." And Crane never forgot it. Crane was bitterly opposed to giving Massachusetts direct primaries. When tlie Roosevelt people started the agita tion he sent out orders to head It off. But tip* colonel and Senator Dixon kept on howling that Taft was afraid of an out-and-out fight and the president finally persuaded Crane to yield. Crane was thus made the goat, for he was beaten for delegate-al-large. Sine- that time he has been pessimistic about Taft's chances, and a month ago he decided on the step he has now taken.

It necer occurre dto me that an inland city like Atlanta would be interested in this recreation. But since I have been out to Piedmont Park and have seen the magnificent facilities there and have noticed with what in terest the people of Atlanta are looking forward to the bathing season, I realize that I was sad ly mistaken. Os course I had no bathing suit-in my wardrobe, and I had another surprise waiting for me when I visited the J. M. High Company store and looked at the stock of beautiful bathing suits. Os course I bought one. It is the one in which the pho tographer happened to catch me just as I was preparing to take a dive. It isn’t as pretty and as fancy as some of those I saw, but inas much as I only expect to use it while in Atlanta and will not get a chance to take my vaca tion for many weeks to come, I did not get a more expensive one. 1 was so impressed, how ever. with what I saw that it is quite possible I will get another one before I leave town and use it later on in the summer when T do get a chance to quit the footlights for a little while and take a rest at the seashore. To those women who do not know of the delights of early morning bathing, 1 would say: Get a bathing suit at High’s and go out to Piedmont park tomorrow morning. I know you won’t regret it and I believe you will enjoy it. I know I did.
