A recent writer says his funniest experience at a banquet was when Caruso was called on to sing at one. "Caruso declined," he said, "but the people were insistent, and Caruso agreed to sing. He went behind a scereen and played one of his gramoâ€" phone records. The audience was spellâ€"bound.

Negroes in all parts are protesting against this revolutionary action, but their protests are having little effect. Negro fireac'hers are supporting the umferta ers.

The greatest ambition of the averâ€" age city Negro in the South is to so live that when he dies he can have a funeral on Sunday, with a brass band and his friends leading the procession.
