Colonel Spingarn—who was commisioned a major in the
American Expeditionary Forces—is also credited with being
the motivating figure in the United States government's
establishing a training camp for colored officers during the
World war. Over 1,000 Negroes were so trained at the
camp established at Des Moines, Iowa.
Sincere, militant, uncompromising, Colonel Spingarn re-
mained, throughout the last quarter of a century, a deter-
mined fighter for justice and fair play for the Negro race.
The Race has, indeed, lost a friend.

ROPERTY RIGHTS
The term "property" is loosely
used. So in dealing with the
subject of personal property, jou
should remember that the word
property, in its preliminary and
true meaning, denotes the right
to certain acts, but the term is
usually inaccurately applied to
concrete objects of ownership
themselves.
FOR EXAMPLE
To show you what we mean
you own many things, don't yon?
Watch, clothing, fountain pen,
money, and so on. The chances are
that you would say that all of
these things are your personal
property; but such is not the case
in the legal and true sense—they
are only the objects of your per
sonal property. Your
PERSONAL PROPERTY
is the conduct which you may
exact from your fellowmen with
respect to such objects, and the
power backed up by the state to
compel all your fellowmen to re
fraln from doing certain things
with respect to these objects, or
to compel some particular fellow
men to do some particular acts
with respect to the objects.
THE SIM TOTAL OF ALL
is this: Your legal rights to
which you are entitled by author
ity of the stute to enforce from
others—restoration or compensa-
tion, etc. The greatest right which
anyone may have in any object
is composed of only three elements
—the possession, the use and en
joyment, and the disposal. That
is known as absolute property in
an object against all the world
except the state.

JUNE 4th: Today I'm leaving quaint little Rouen (France)
for Mont St. Michel, that 8th Wonder of the World. It
is hut 180 miles from Paris, but centuries away in its customs.
Rouen is thfc city noted for its burning at the stake of Joan
of Arc. It is in the province of Normandy, and it is apple
blossom time, hut I can't l>cg.
borrow, or steal « blossom for
my flower scrap book. My hotel
is next to the Grosse Horologe
(the Big Clock) put up in 1380
and still in use. The town itself
dates back to the year 841 and
has many, nrtiny old buildings
standing on these narrow, winding
streets. The cathedral had the
tallest spire in France, and one
of the most beautiful, though its
style of architecture is entirely at
variance with the rest of the
church. I have walked down the
Hue de la Republlque to the square
where Joan of Arc was burned;
seen the smaller churches of ,St.
Ma clou and St. Ouen; spent a
half hour feeding the usual pigeons
that are seen before every church
or park over here; seen the tomb
of Itlchard the Llon-Hearted,
whose heart is burl?d there; and
I've walked over cobble stones
until I think all roads should be
rough.
June 5th: I arrived at the
Mount after the harrowing ex
perience of riding on a fast-flying
stream-lined train that I was not
sure at all was going in the right
direction. This trip was not di
reeled by my agency as it is very
much off the l caten track made
by tourists. I passed through
Caen; Llseau, the home of .St.
Theresa of the Little Flower; and
Pontorson, from which place I
took a bus to the Mount as It is
commonly called.
The Mont St. Michel Is a city
built on a rock. At low tide it
sets in a sea of white rippled sand
with white sheep grazing over it.
The sheep have no shepherd, bnt
when it is time for the tide to
come in, they start their homeward
trek. When one sees the sheep
coming in thnjr con■ illt the bulletin
board at their hotel and get the
time of arrival of the high tide.
P.M.), then went to the tower. As
far as my eyes could see there
was nothing but sand. I could
hear the roar of the sea, and in
a few minutes see the wafer coin-
ing in. Within the next 15 min-
utes the whole place was stir-
rounded by high waves dashing
against the battlements of the
Mount. The sea that comes from
nowhere! So it seems, but the
water comes from the North Sea
or Manche. In five or six hours
I got up to watch it recede, and
to wait for the sunrise over the
sands. I went to the parish
church for mass, then to the abbey
which crowns the Mount. It was
erected in 841 and has been used
as an nbbey, a Xort, and a place
for pilgrims to rest during the
Crusades. The altar in the parish
church is solid silver.
The town ha* one winding street
that goes up, up, up. On it there
are 110 curio shops, 12 hotels, and
the homes of the 200-odd people
who live there. My hotel—tha
Poulard—was the home of Mere
Poulard who made the first ome-
let. As soon as you arrive you
are served an omelet in the style
in which she made them, cooked
in a copper pan over an open
fireplace. The dining room has
three walls only, the fourth be-
ing merely an opening against th*
huge rock wall of the Mount.
Whole sheep are roasting In the
fireplace, and I am so eager to
get started on my curio hunting
for my collector friends and my-
self.
Later: I am leaving the Mount
today, so I took my farewell walk
around the base of the rock. That
took an hour. I spent another,
hour laboriously scratching my
name on « rock under the west
side wtere my hotel window Is.
Under It I put "Jo revicn", French
for "I will return." I did not

ODE TO A COWARD
In this world of trouble and woe
Fate is sure to follow wherever you go.
Discouragement, disgust, pain everywhere
But odc, defeated, gives up all hope and carc.
In this world of turmoil and strife
One can't help but give up in life
Tis true triumph should be one's ambition
Bnt a defeated one loses all hope of recognition
To you with courage to battle on
The coward congratulates you
Though he Is forlorn.
May success and happiir?ss stay
Always with those who try,
While the coward admits his defeat
And says to the world his goodbye.
