SANHEDRIN CONFERENCE UNDER WAY
Six Leading Civil Rights Bodies, Realizing Need Of United Front, Meet in Lafayette Hall to Begin Preliminary Work and Send Out Call.
From Kelly Miller's long cherished dream of a Sanhedrin, or centralized council, where the leaders of the various movements within the race would meet to discuss race policies began to assume shape when representatives of the leading organizations met in a two-day conference last Friday and Saturday at Lafayette Hall.
The following bodies accepted the call and were represented as follows: The National Race Congress: Kelly Miller; the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; James Welton Johnson and R. W. Bagnall; the African Blood Brotherhood; W. A. Domingo; R. B. Moore and Otto Eniwald; the National Equal Rights League, Rev. M. A. N. Shaw and William Monroe Trotter both of Boston; the International Uplift League by Dr. Campbell and the Friends of Negro Freedom by G. S. Schuyler.
- Purpose of Meeting.
Cyril Briggs, head of the African Blood Brotherhood the body that issued the call opened the proceedings by outlining the purpose for which the conference was called. He emphasized the fact that each organization was to retain its identity while sub-ordinating all interests of organization to the interests of the race of large and thus he able to present a strong united front to the foes of the race.
Dean Miller in a speech well fortified with facts called upon all Negro leaders and their organizations to sink their differences in the general good of the race at large. He pointed out that at bottom all were working toward the same end—equal rights. He went on to point out some of the many handicaps Negroes have to contend with.
"We are the only group in America who suffer legal discrimination" he said. "Twenty-nine of the forty-eight states have marital distinctions and in many others there are civil distinctions. The Jews, are objected to, but they are white, and for all practical purposes can identify themselves with the rest of the whites.
"Caste is on the increase in America. If Catholics and others who have already those rights that we are seeking are justified in maintaining their separate societies how much more so are we? A strong united body of Negroes is the great need. Congress has the power to force the Fifteenth Amendment but not the disposition. "Dean Miller also pointed the great necessity of the race's having an ideal toward which to work. Differences expressed
Difference Laggerger
James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. said that he thought one great handicap was the great noise that was made about differences among Negro leaders. "This is greatly exaggerated," he said. These differences are-not nearly so great as are (Continued on Page 2).

When he woke up James Hemley, forty-five, of 23d street and Third avenue, discovered he was a prisoner in the Charles street station charged with intoxication and disorderly conduct. When the charge was entered against him Hemley was dozing, peacefully, against Patrolman Strain.
As the stragglers from Greenwich Village resorts were making their way home, Patrolman Strain found Hemley hugging tightly a fire box at Washington place and Sixth avenue. He was fast asleep. A few seconds later there arrived a Battalion Chief, two engine companies, two hook and ladder companies, the rescue squad and a fire patrol. Hemley, still asleep, was taken to the Charles street station, where policemen managed to wake him up long enough to get his name, age and 23d street and Third avenue as his address.
"What's the number of your house?" Hemsley was asked. There was no answer. He had gone back to sleep."

William Nelson Colson Dies in Lincoln Hospital
Recently Graduated From Columbia Law School, He Planned To Begin Practicing This Summer.
Succumbs to Intestinal Trouble in the Hospital Where His Wife Was a Nurse—Had Great Many Friends. Harlem intellectual circles received a shock Monday morning when it was announced that William Nelson Colson, recent Columbia Law School graduate and prominent socially, had died in the Lincoln Hospital, 141st Street and Southern Boulevard. Sunday night. His rapid demise even amazed his attending physician, Dr. Louis T. Wright, who performed what was thought to be a successful operation at 11 a.m. m. last Saturday.
A week ago Mr. Colson was in apparent good health, but suddenly took ill with what is technically known as intestinal Adhesion. He was taken to the Lincoln Hospital Friday. Saturday he underwent an operation. Dr. White, one of the hospital physicians, was called into consultation by Dr. Wright, but no fear was felt for the patient's life. He was carefully watched over by his wife, Mrs. Adela Colson, who is a nurse at the hospital, but a release came, which proved fatal.
Mr. Colson, 33, was a highly esteemed young man, not only in Harlem, but throughout the country. The story of his life is not lacking. In interst. He was born in Pittsburgh, Va., Feb. 18, 1890. After graduating at Hampton Institute he went to Virginia Union University at Richmond, where he took a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1914. He came to New York in the summer of 1914 and studied at the School of Philanthropy in Columbia University on a scholarship from the Urban League. Then he returned to Richmond and was made professor at Union in 1915-16, holding the first chair installed of Negro history. In 1916-17 he was a student at Harvard, but his course there was cut short by the war.
Taking training at Ft. Des Moines, Iowa, was commissioned as Second Lieutenant and sailed for France in June, 1918. After seeing active service as an officer in the 367th Infantry he returned to America in March, 1919, and entered Columbia Law School, from which he emerged with an LL.. B degree in 1922. He had just completed his statio bar examinations a week-before his illness and was expecting to begin the practice of law this summer.
Mr. Colson was a member of the Richmond, Va., chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha and the Egelloc Club of New York City, composed of college men only.
The deceased is survived by his wife, of 317 West 128th Street, whom he married in 1918; his mother, Mrs. Kate D. Colson, Matron of the State Slater School, Winston-Salem, N. C.; two sisters, Miss Myra H. Colson, executive secretary of the Y. W. C. A. at Gernantown, Pa., and?Miss Edna M. Colson, student of Normal School Education at Columbia University; and two brothers, James M. Colson, Richmond, Va., insurance man Carlton Colson, student at DeWitt Clinton High School, New York City.
Mrs. Kate Colson happened to be in the city, having been here several days, convalescent; Miss Myra arrived from Gernantown early Tuesday morning.
The body will be interred at Woodlawn cemetery, New York City, Wednesday.

NEW ORLEANS, March 26.—A verdict of manslaughter was found by a jury yesterday in the case of William Shakespeare and Constantine Dyer, two followers of Marcus Garvey who were tried for the killing of Rev. J. W. N. Eason, an opponent of Garvey and one of the principal witnesses who were to have testified against Garvey in the Federal case charging him with fraudulent use of the mails. Dr. Eason was fatally wounded following a church meeting January 1.

AWAITING TRIAL FOR ABANDONING CHILDREN POLICE CHARGE WM. MULLINS HAD "SLIPS
George Newman, 29, 1 W. 136th St., indicted on the charge of abandoning his four small children, pleaded guilty before Judge Crain in Gendral Sessions the other day, but when told a sentence of two years in prison might be imposed upon him, withdrew the plea. Judge Crain remanded Newman to the Tombs to await trial.
According to his wife, Florence, now living with friends at 162 W. 144th Street, Newman, after neglecting her and the children for years past, deliberately abandoned them January 11 last and went to live with some relatives. He was arrested for playing policy, and while in jail was indicted on the testimony of his wife.
Probation officers told Judge Crain that Newman, who is a longshoreman, makes good money when he cares to work, which, according to them, is not frequent. Most of Newman's time, the officers told Judge Crain, was spent in devising means to beat the races and the police game.

Failure of William Mullins, a barber, to recall his boss's name, although he said he knows him for the last five years, gave the cliching testimony against him, when arraigned last Monday on a charge of having policy alips. It also developed that Mullins' alleged boss had been trusting him all that time to take ten per cent of the earnings of the shop with no cash register in the place.
Detective, Walah said that when he entered Mullins' barber shop at 203 West 14th street at 9 a.m., March 24, he found a large sheaf of policy alips on the shelf.
The defendant declared that the place wasn't his. He managed the place for his boss whom he sold saw, he said, and who also allowed him ten per cent.
"Have you a cash register there?" asked the Judge as he made preparations to hold him.
The defendant admitted that he hadn't to the loud laughter if the court.

Kent Island Minister Must Serve Eighteen Months in Federal Prison in Atlanta — Witnesses Say He Lived Exemplary Life.
BALTIMORE, Mar. 28 (Afro-American), Rev. Cyrus W. H. Briddell, Kent Island M. E. minister, with a perfect record of many years' work in the Delaware Conference, was found guilty of sending obscene letters through the mail Friday.
Monday, he was sentenced to serve 18 months in the Federal Penitentiary.
The jury was out half an hour and the verdict followed a trial covering two days in the U. S. District Court and attracting the attention of large numbers from Kent island, where the women who received the letters lived, as well as here in Baltimore, where the accused, had a large number of inducational friends.
Lived Exemplary Life.
One of the outstanding features of the trial was the large amount of evidence brought out by the defence that established the fact that Rev. Briddell enjoyed, a most enviable reputation in all of the places he had been stationed since his advent into the ministry.
Dr. John O. Spencer, president of Morgan College, testified on the witness stand that he had known Rev. Briddell 12 years; covering his student days at Princess Anne Academy, and his activities in the ministry and knew him to be a good moral man and would not believe him guilty of such an act.
Ministers on Stand.
The Rev. Ralph C. Jones, white, minister at Slavenville, stated that he had known Rev. Briddell intimately since his work in that place and since he was an exemplary character and was so thought of in his community.
The Rev. Pezavin O'Connell, professor of history at Morgan College, and who was at one time principal of Princess Anne Academy, where Rev. Briddell attended school, testified that he stood high as a student and never had a dewort mark against him.
Rev. Thomas Woodley, Easton, Md., who has been associated with Rev. Briddell many years, stated that he had a reputation without ablem.
Merchant Testifies for Briddell.
John C. Norris, white, a merchant of Stevensville, testified that in that town Rev. Briddell was known as a polite, pleasant, truthful and trustworthy man.
William C. Carter, white, Stevensville, assistant cashier of the Stevensville Bank, who was at one time accused of writing; these letters and who had an altercation with another white man growing out of them, was also called to the stand by the defense and testified to the general good reputation of Briddell.
Watermarks Proves Guild.
Under cross examination Rev. Briddell admitted writing a letter to Mrs. Susan Tyler on Friday, January 19, on a matter growing out of an errand for his wife.

PETITION HARDING.
Last Monday the Mothers and Fathers' Association, headed by their president, Richard Morris Lee, sent an appeal to President Harding asking him to issue a proclamation setting aside the week of May 6th to 13th as Mothers' Week, instead of having the usual, customary Mothers' Day. The aim of this association is to impress upon the minds of young people their duty to their parents, especially the good deeds.

TO DANCE OR WORSHIP CAUSES SUNDAY KILLING
Woman Expresses Horror of Buzzi Killing. Kills Husband Few Minutes Later With Rusty Revolver.
Following an argument as to whether to go to church or to the dance at the Renaissance Casino, Mrs. Evie Brooks was accused of shooting her husband in their bedroom at 130 West 142nd Street last Sunday at 5:30 p.m.
Immediately after the shooting Mrs. Brooks fled down the four flights of stairs bare-footed, jumped into a taxi and went to 154 West 133rd Street, the home of her sister, Mrs. Smith, where she hid herself. Detectives Redding, Boyle, and Nelson, who answered the call of Mrs. Gladys Grant, the landlady of the apartment in which Brooks and his wife lived, followed Mrs. Brooks to the Smiths' apartment. Here Lawrence Smith, her brother-in-law, denied that Mrs. Brooks was in. Some time later Detective Wesley Redding went to the apartment with a pretended message for the accused, and on entering found her hiding under a table.
Mrs. Shelton and Chinaman Guilty
Convicted of Statutory Offense by Jury in Jersey City.
Mrs. Eliza Strickland, Shelton, aged 21, housekeeper, a very comely woman of $47 Ege avenue, whose house was raided last Labor Day night, 1922, was found guilty last Wednesday, together with Charles Lung, who gave his address as 654 Morris avenue, New York City, in Judge Hyman Lazarus' Court, at the County House, and were convicted of a statutory offence by a jury.
On complaint of the Chinaman last Labor Day of being robbed, the police raided this residence and took Mrs. Shelton and the Chinaman to the 6th Precinct; Jersey City, where they were held for a hearing the following morning. Released on ball, they came up for trial last week, and were convicted.
The Chinaman claimed that he had given Mrs. Shelton about $2,000 to keep for him and that she refused to return it to him.
The State was represented by Assistant Prosecutor Thomas H. Brown, and Charles E. S. Simpson, of Simpson, Gordon & Sewell, represented the woman's husband, from whom she separated several years ago. Divorce proceedings will start immediately. They both entered general denials, the Chinaman claiming that he never made a confession of wrong-doing. The defendants were represented by Thomas F. A. Griffin and Hyman Brodsky. Mrs. Shelton was raised in this city. Her mother is still living. Her father is dead. It is alleged that her defiant attitude on the witness stand had much to do with her conviction. The humorous part of the entire trial was that Mrs. Shelton claimed that the Chinaman made these long trips from the metropolis to her home in Jersey City to scrub her floors and do her housework in her home.
MAN KILLED BY CAR STILL UNIDENTIFIED
The body of the well-dressed man who was killed by a trolley car at Lenox Avenue and 139th Street last Sunday night still lies unidentified at the morgue. The man is about 50 years old and weighs 160 pounds and is about 5 feet 8 inches in height. He wore a dark gray overcoat, blue serge suit, gray fedora hat, and button cloth top shoes. On a signet ring on his left hand were the initials A. T. L. In his pockets were $14.63 and a gold watch and chain.

The accused woman was taken to the 88th Precinct station. Smith was also arrested as an accessory for having refused to give her up to the detectives in the first instance.
Accused Talked of Buzzl Case Be
Tore Killing.
Mrs. Grant when interviewed by a reporter from the Amsterdam News said that she did not think the slight argument over Mrs. Brooks' refusal of go to a dance on Sunday was the real cause that led to the shooting. She hinted that there must have been some deeper motive.
"They didn't quarrel any more than any ordinary couple—or she said. I noticed however, that after the night of the Elkhorn fell something strange had happened between them. What is was I don't know. Once Mrs. Brooks told me that her husband had beaten her with a shoe.
"Yesterday she was lying in bed with her husband, reading the papers and when I entered the room she was talking about the Buzzi case and said to me, 'Can't it terrible the way these women shoot up the men?'
"Quarrel Over Dance.
"Later I heard them arguing about going to the dance at the Renaissance. She declared that she wasn't reared that way; that she had been trained to go to church on Sundays, but finally to please him, she promised to go to the dance. Some time after that I heard them arguing in a low tone, then she came out filled the bath tub; and bathed him as usual.
"After that she took her dress—the one I supposed she was going to wear to the dance—into the room where her husband was. Presently I heard a scuffling, then a report that really did not sound like a shot, and heard someone cry; 'O God! O God! Then Mrs. Brooks ran out terribly scared and started to run to the door but changed her mind, ran back and cried: 'Oh baby, baby, call a doctor!' First Degree Murder Charge. Mrs. Brooks was arraigned in the Homicide Court last Monday and held on a charge of murder in the first degree. Smith is held as an accessory. The accused woman is twenty-nine, very attractive in face and figure, well spoken and shows evidence of a considerable degree of refinement. The couple had been living at the address but three months and came from Louisiana to this city five years ago. The weapon with which the killing was done is a rusty one of small calibre. It seems to have been a cherished possession of Mrs. Brooks. "One day she showed it to me," said Mrs. Grant, and said, "if you knew I had this I bet you wouldn't have rented me this room."
NO COLOR LINE HERE
Persons at Myrtle and Hudson Avonnes, Brooklyn, yesterday saw a white and a colored man inviting passersby to try their luck as three-card monte on a table consisting of a board laid on a box. Detective Woofel of the Tenth Inspection District, passing by allowed his way through the crowd. At the hands of one, he later reported, three red-backed cards were thrown swiftly on the board while the keen-eighted onlooker lost their money seating their confidence in eyes which they soon became convinced were badly in need of glassen. Woofel introduced, arrested the two men on charges of disorder conduct. The colored man said he was Charles Martin of 30 Lawrence Street, Brooklyn; his companion was John Roosevelt of 30 Street, Brooklyn.

Master Jesus must come to the conclusion that He really meant
the contemplation of God within Himself, when He said,‘"Bo-

the time of Christ and His teachings. He was murdered by a
Jewish mob. ‘Why? Because He called Himscif ine Son of God.
The Jewa answered Him, “We have a law and by our law He
ought to die, because Me made Himself the Son of God.” Jesus,
theMaster, was crucified because He taught that God Iles within
a man and that man and God are on. | amvthe Son of God. The

would dare to teach or profess that God and man’s power (a to
help himself—there you have it—just think It over, and you'll

position towards the teachings of Christ as wero the Jews, King
Pilate, the Scribes, Elders: and Chief Priests who murdered
‘Christ. Still, we are told that this same God commanded, “Thou
thalt not kill.” If this be true, why did He excite mankind whom.
He was trying to teach to sin no more, to commit such a das.

Gans To Face "Cowboy" Williams Saturday Night
Williams Packs a Heavy Wallop
PAGE FOUR

Joe Will Have to Use All His Science to Stand Off the Cowboy.
Colored Fighter a Classy, Performer Who Can Always Be Depended Upon When He Fights
Classy Panama Joe Gans will crawl through the ropes at the Commonwealth Sport Club the coming Saturday night to attempt to stop the winning strides of Cowboy Williams, a recent arrival in this neck o' the woods who made a splendid impression from the first, night he appeared before a New York crowd. Not so very long ago Cowboy was sent in as a pinch hitter against one of our colored swatters by the name of Stewart and the fight went the limit of four rounds.
Rematched a few weeks later Williams hung a quick knockout on the same Stewart in the second round. The coming fight will present a fighter who carries a wallop against one who has been able to keep in the game all these years by his superior ability as a scientific boxer. The majority of Gans' fights of late years have been won and lost by decisions, although Joe departed from his usual style by knocking out Jimmie O'Gatty in their last bout at the Commonwealth.
Knowing that he is up against a man to whom he cannot so readily expose himself as he has been doing, Gans has been training faithfully for the encounter and will center the ring primed for the fight and will have no excuse to offer the Cowboy hangs one of those lucky swings, fraught with danger at all times, upon his chin.
The Prince of Entertainers
"Happy" Arthur Rhone and His Versatile Orchestra at Manhattan Casino Next Week
It is so gainsaying the fact that as a public entertainer who for the past few seasons have drawn thousands to Manhattan Casino, "Happy" Arthur Rhone leads the field and usually comes home on the bit. We have had all forms of entertainment since "Happy" went it alone and drew the big houses to Eddie Waldron's Palace of Mirkh, but "Happy" has managed to hold his own.
The happy person and his versatile orchestra will entertain the gang and friends at what he tells us is the best thing, he ever planned at Manhattan Casino on Friday night. April 6th. To that end he has arranged a program which will surpass anything of its kind, and when he sends sixty five musicians away on a sea of music by lifting his magic baton, at least four thousand will respond by each and every one attempting to harken unto the call of the entrancing strains and taxing the capacity of Eddie's spacious dance floor.
Kid Rash, the fast little colored bantam who fought a sensational draw with Harry London, the Crashing Ossack, at the Commonwealth Sporting Club a short time ago, has been matched to fight Mannie Wexler the fast flyweight of New York at the Knucklebocker A. C. in Albany on April 3rd.

Star Who Helped Defeat New
Yorkers. Will Appear
Against Celtics on
Sunday Night
The much improved and elongated Sessions who did much to help place our boys "hors de combat" in their two games against the Loenedi Club of Pittsburgh, Pa. has decided to wear the uniform of McMahon's Commonwealth for the balance of the present basketball season with an option of appearing with the team here all next season.
The addition of Seasons at this time will do much in bringing out another big crowd to sitness the clash as "Long Boy" is going like a house afire. The local players feel that with the pivot position materially strengthened they will have their best chance to wrest the laurels from the white players. The price of admission will be the same as the last time when the Celtics came to Harlem, one dollar and ten cents.
Sunday afternoon the Juntos tied the score against the Commonwealth but with our boys hitting their stride on their own home court in the evening, they set a fact face against the white players and maintained it throughout, leaving the visitors trailing, hopelessly trying, to stem the tide of what proved to be certain victory as seen by the knowing ones shortly after the game started. The score at the conclusion read Commonwealth 42. Juntos 22. Sunday night's game is quite an attractive offering with the colored boys having a chance of administering a defeat against the famous white players.
Frank Keenan As Himself in Film
Veteran Actor Seen in Important Role in "Hearts Afame"
As Luke Taylor, the millionaire lumber king in Reginald Barker's new picture, "Hearts Afame," at the Lincoln Theatre the latter part of this week Frank Keenan, veteran actor and screen favorite, creates of the finest characters of his career on the screen. Cast to play the part of a crabbed old individual who has more money than he can possibly spend, but who aches for activity and the life of a logging camp, as he known it in his youth, Keenan brings to the role the force and versatility at his command, according to those who have seen the picture.
Photoplay critics in the newspapers have commented upon the way in which he invests the part of the sour old man with a depth of feeling and understanding which inspires the admiration and sympathy of the audience, in spite of the forbidding manner of the character. Keenan lives the part of old man Taylor in this Metro version of the famous novel, "Timber," by Harold Titus. They ascribe Keenan's success in this role to the fact that the character of Luke Titus is in
"It's your time now"

B. A. C: Defeats St. C.
"Lightning Five" Smashes
Famous "Red and Black
Machine" Friday Night
at Labor Lyceum,
The B. A. C. "Lightning Flive" completely wrecked the St. Christopher Red and Black Machine in Brooklyn just Friday night and practically clinched the M. P. A. championship. Brooklyn champs started game with a rush and were never headed, winning by a score of 46, to 32. It was the second victory of the Boroughs over St. Christopher this season. Coach Bradford tried every means to stop the rush of the Boroughs, shifting his line up several times and using in all ten men, but they were all the same to the winners who played one of their best games of the season. This victory over St. Christopher almost assures Brooklyn of the first M. B. A. championship as the B. A. C. has defeated every team in the league. The B. A. C. Lightweights suffered another upset when they lost to the fast Tuxedos of Orange, by a score of 43 to 32. The first half of the game was close, the Tuxedos leading 17 to 14. In the second half however the Jersey boys got away and bringing many spectacular shots piled up a big lead.
The crowd was small but the enthusiasm was big when St. C. and B. A. C. took the court. B. A. C. lost no time in scoring. Wilson caging one from the floor. St. C. was unable to stop the swift attack of the Brooklyn champs in the first half, their floor work and shooting were both excellent and they were leading at the half way mark.28 to 13. During the second half they were content to keep pace with their rivals and continued to hold the big lead they had. Little Allel Wilson was the big gun in the B. A. C. victory, the star little forward of the Brooklynites played a brilliant all around game leading the winners in the scoring, bringing a number of sensational shots during the game. Wilson scored seven field goals while every member of the winners, except J. Brown broke into the scoring column. Cain and Garcia did most of the scoring for St. Christopher.

OUIDA'S IMMORTAL STORY IS FILMED
"Under Two Flags," the Universal Jewel film version of Ouida's immortal tale of undying love, which held the stage of the world for many years in a dramatized version of the novel, presents one of the great stories of all times through the superior medium of the screen. It comes to the Franklin Theatre on Thursday.
Priscilla Dean, the star, is directed by Tod Browning, the same combination responsible for "The Virgin of Stamboul."
Supporting Miss Dean are such geehrart artists as James Kirkwood, John Davidson, Ethel Grey Terry, Stuart Holmes, Fred Cavens, W. F. Balmbridge, Burton Law and Bobby Mack.
In the production of the picture Universal allowed Tod Browning unlimited scope. Even "Foolish Wives" had scarcely better sets and scenic effects. The gamut of Algerian architecture is run, from narrow alleys to brackets and buddors of Oriental splendor.

At the Renaissance Casino on Monday night the boys of the "Association" forming the Married and Single Mens teams had a big time.
Those enjoining single blessedness hung it heavy upon their "housebroke" married opponents by a score of 31-30.

Cook Shows Himself the Artist and Was Ably Assisted By Tyers.
Bessie Arthur in Artistic Interpretation of Oriental Dance — Harrison Recites as of Old
It is no secret that the only contribution of American music to the world and of which the European masters delight in speaking is that of the American Negro, hence when such as Will Marion-Cook comes to our midst after a long absence we would like to see this assertion clinched by the colored people of the community turning put in large numbers to the Lafayette Theatre.
On Monday night Mr. Cook again proved himself the master mind of whom the critics have spoken in glowing terms for nigh on to twenty-five years. Like the artist he is he has assembled almost overnight an array of musicians whose mark takes one from the humdum of every day life and you are waffled to a sphere of enjoyment which can only come through an almost perfect interpretation of this art that will never die as long as human beings remain on this mundane sphere.
It was surprisingly delightful. It was even more than that, for when they made their incursion into the classics even those of us not trained in the art could find appreciation and understanding. Even the "gallery gods" were held spellbound and paid Cook one of the highest tributes ever paid to a musicia here when they vocaciously appended every number. Will Tyers, whose music we have ever associated with the Orient, contended of his new numbers enclosed "Brazilian Butterfly" and if her name was apprehended, Mr. Tyers' selection of a title fits this beautiful piece. It has the swing of the composers of those entrancing Spanish-American tunes and we again found ourselves in fancy listening to a Miranda while enjoying the cooling breezes on some glauca. Superb indeed.
Lack of a prepared program forces us to tax our mind to recall those we fortunately know. "Lilail" as sung by Paul Robeson unobtutely made the composer feel gratified that his creation was being put over in a manner worthy of his brain creation, for none other than J. Rosmand Johnson sat in the audience. Richard Harrison, executionist, again won his audience by his brilliant recitations, while Miss Mickey's rendition of
Vaudeville and Motion Pictures Marion am at Lafayette
her sons were received with great applause: Tom Fletcher, the one and only Tom, is the same old cut-up of old and audiences this week will find much to enjoy in Tom's work. His burlesque of "The Selk of Araby" is setting the house by the cars. Miss Bessie Arthur in an interpretation of an Oriental dance is possessed of the charm which, when added to her artistic work, will mean that she too will be taking many hours, then some
more. The program as we remember, and which we hope that those responsible will condense to print in justice to those on the bill and the people in the audience, are as follows: "Swing Along," octette and orchestra: "Carolina in the Morning." instrumental: "Oh Mary," octette: "Hungarian Dance." orchestra: "When Hearts Are Young," instrumental: "Hot Lips," Farewell Blues," Lil' Gal." Paul Robeson: "Brazilian Butterfly," directed by the composer, Will H. Tyers: "Beautiful Spring." instrumental: "Love Sends a Little Gift of Roses." Georgette Harvey, Tom Fletcher: recitation, Richard Harrison; "Back Up Your Sins." instrumental: "Any Old Part," Rube Foster, muff set; Oriental Dance, Bessie Arthur.
Plantation Days Next Week
Coleman Brothers Offer Another Comedy With Forty People and Well Known Western Stars
For next week the Coleman Brothers have secured the "Plantation Days" with Eddie Green in the feature position. This show comes here with forty people which will include some of the most widely known stars of the west. Advance information states that this should be another banner attraction at the Lafayette Theatre as the principles are above the ordinary and supported by a jazzy chorus just bubbling over with "pen."
Among those billed to appear with the production who are known to hundreds here are the Plantation Four, Adams and Tunstall, Julian Mitchell, Smith and DeForest and Ida Roley. And added attraction will be Woodin's Famous Syncopated Orchestra. As usual there will be a big midnight show Friday. Matinees will also be given every day during the run of the show.

Music and the art dramatic
Bend low to the vulgar will;
And the critic when emphatic,
Doth with rage imposters fill.
We are not fighting men at
any time; we are fighting
measures and those critics who
continue to pick for feature
positions people of little of no
talent should be denounced. It
is not only an injustice to
those worthy of our applause,
but to intelligent readers who
have long since looked upon
the colored newspaper as a
joke.
Let the parasites continue to pick the chorus girl who contributes nothing and whose only claim to a position in the front line is her looks. We are satisfied to lavish praise on those of creative ability. Those who are contributing to our progress in the amusement world will never find it necessary to dig down for personal boosts, and those digging down are simply trying to buy the applause which they cannot earn and which will never be lasting. It is like bought friendship. We have a policy from which neither fullsome praise nor idle denunciation will drive, us for our foundation is founded on TRUTH.
Maceo Packs Them In
Arthur Allen Dismukes usually smiled but last Sunday night he wore: smile that refused to leave his fee and the later the night got the wider became Dismukes smile. It would seem that Arthur had a number of friends predicting failure for the "Liza" concert staged by Maceo Pinkard and as the crook piled in Dismukes knew that at least this once he had put it over his enemies.
An Earful From "Variety"
Wherein the White Theatrical Publication Tells Us a Few Things Anent Colored Artists and Colored Shows.
"How Come" Into the Selwyn
—Florence Coining Money
—"Plantation Days" and
"Plantation Revue"
(From Variety).
Colored shows may again invade Broadway during the slack season, one already having been booked for entrance sometime next season. The attraction is "How Coms" which has been playing in Philadelphia. It has contracted with the Selwyns for one of their houses on a guarantee arrangement. a certified check covering the first four weeks having been posted with the managers.
"How Come" gained areputation as one of the funniest colored shows ever presented during a six weeks' run at the Dunbar, Philadelphia. The admission was 75 cents top, the gross averaging about $6,800 weekly. Eddie Hunter or wrote the book plays the comic lead and is said to be a "find." The show is reported weak in score. It was brought back to New York Monday and will rehearse until the premiere here. Interpolated numbers are listed for insertion.
"How Come" was designed as the first production of a proposed colored circuit. Its backers are Ben Harris, who conducts the Hill Theatre. Newark, and Sam Grisman, also of that city, they having put about $30,000 into the play to date. Harris wrote the music and there was some internal arguments over proposed interpolations. "Liza," a colored attraction, is the first of the sable shows to secure booking on Broadway this season. it. having moved from Daly's to the Bayes last week.

employing the title "Plantation" for his new Empire show. Cochran revue from the Plantation Restaurant in New York will open March 27, the same date set for Butt's "Brighter London" to start at the Empire.
The court after argument, refused, to grant the injunction, stating that as Butt said he did not intend to call his colored show "The Plantation" no injunctive aid was required. Counsel for Butt during argument mentioned that Butt, to avoid confusion, intended to adopt the title of "Plantation Land" for his colored performance in the cabaret and "Plantation Days" for the scene in the show.
Charles B. Cochran engaged while in New York "Plantation," Harlem Conser
the colored revue with Florence Mills in the Plantation cabaret on Broadway; Sir Alfred Burt engaged "Plantation Day" in colored traveling attraction
Up till last Wednesday the Plantation cabaret show had not left its Broadway restaurant, leaving it impossible for the company to open in London March 27, although the show it is to appear with (Cochran's) could open without it. The colored group is to fill but a scene in that production, doing a cabaret show besides in another part of the same building (Empire).
Before the "Plantation" cabaret show has sailed for over here with its group of colored performers, Florence Mills, featured member and also colored, is being booked by Charles B. Cochran for social affairs at 100 guineas ($500) nightly.
Cochran is bringing over the "Plantation" floor revue.

Doctor Operates on Man's Heart
Doctor Operates on Man's Heart
Lad Stabbed in Brawl in Atlanta Will Recover.
ATLANTA, Ga., March 24—An extraordinary operation upon the heart was successfully performed recently by Dr. William R. Smith, a graduate of Cornell, with the Class of 1919, when he sewed up the heart of a young colored man stabbed in a brawl in Atlanta on Lincoln's Birthday.
As a result of Dr. Smith's daring operation, Glenn Freeman, a young colored boy, is now at Grady Hospital here on the road to recovery. His heart was lifted out of its normal position, a ragged knife wound sewed up and the heart replaced in its normal position, with the flow of blood halted.
The day after the operation, performed late in the evening, Dr. Smith predicted that the boy would recover and would suffer few if any ill effects as a result of his close scuffle with death.
As soon as Freeman fell, with a gash in his side that seemed certain to prove fatal. He was rushed to Grady Hospital and placed on the operating table. Dr. Smith, resident surgeon at the hospital, was called. Five stitches were taken in the heart. And after each was sewed, Dr. Smith had to replace the heart in its normal position for a while so that it would continue beating. Dr. Dan Williams, a colored surgeon of Chicago, is credited with performing one of the few operations on the heart.

It is the desire of the Supreme Lodge to dedicate their temple during the Supreme Session, in August. If each member of the order complies with the small request of the Supreme Chancellor for the eight months beginning January, 1923, it is an assured fact that the temple will be placed safely on its own base as to all carrying charges, assuring a handsome return. It is the desire of the Supreme Chancellor that a deeper recognition of our Pythian spirit be observed at our altars. New territories are constantly being opened to the E. & W. H.

Emphasizing the fact that the association's purpose is to serve Negro business men, II. Adolph Howell, made the address of welcome. He was followed by Secretary Thomas E. Taylor, of the Y. M. C. A.
Other speakers included Lester Walton, of the staff of the New York World; A. J. Hart. Col. Little, William H. Ferris and Miss Eva H. Bowles.
Fossibly the most interesting figure in the vast assemblage was Tom. Charles W. Cottrell, of Ohio, who recently declined a political appointment at the hands of President Harding.

Negro Voters to Decide Election
Newcomers to Detroit Register By Thousands Under Jerry Brock.
DEFROIT, Mich., Mar. 26.—This city is in the midst of one of the biggest and most bitterly contested political fights in the history of the entire state, as the Negro, for years a minor item at the polls, has awakened to his power.
In the wake of the big migratory movement, which has practically trebled this city's colored population in the last three years, and with the East Side lining up solidly behind their favored candidates, the City Government is literally shaking in its shoes, as it senses the enormity of the crisis which they confront.
Race against race and religious creed against religious creed is the slogan going the rounds as the second of April draws nearer. And with the colored citizens, under the active leadership of Jerry Brock, claimed by police to be a "notorious character," but admitted by all to be a recognized leader, registering daily, the District Citizens' League has called upon the white citizens to rally as never before and register in order to over-ride

CONFESSES TO ROBBING UNITED STATES MAIL
The mystery surrounding the theft three days ago of a registered mall bag from the station platform of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad, at Harmon, N. Y., was solved yesterday when Henry A. Moore, colored, of Rock Hill, S. C., confessed. Moore was brought here and arraigned last week on a charge of robbing the malls.
Moore was first arrested on a charge of trespass but after a grilling by Inspectors Kinsell and Cuman, of the Postoffice Department finally admitted he had taken the pouch and cut it open.
the "Black Wrote" which threatens disaster and political ruin.
The Detroit-Free Press, a white daily, appears to be the organ of the whites, and in order to stir up the pride of the white man, have stated that on last Thursday, 700 of the 1,000 persons who enrolled were colored.
They have picked the reputation of Brock and his lieutenants to shreds, painting them in anything but a goritous light. But notwithstanding this, the Negroes are registering daily. Some of them come to the Court House in cars, others afoot, others by trolley, but practically all of them have responded to Brock's clarion call, and are rallying to the colors.
Situation is Tense.
The colored vote in Detroit in the past has been comparatively light, but the concentrated effort of Brock and his co-workers to bring it out this year will have its results.

Will Re-Introduce Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill
Representative Leonidas C. Dyer of Missouri, who was sponsor for the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in the last Congress, will reintroduce the measure at the next session, according to an announcement last week.
Present plans are to have the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill introduced simultaneously in the Senate and the House of Representatives. According to Representative Dyer, the prospect is excellent for the passage of the bill a second time in the House of Representatives, and it is hoped that steps will be taken in the Senate to revise the rules of the Senate in a way to make such a filibuster was carried on by the Southern Democrats impossible.

Cincinnati U.N.I.A. Sec. Upfor Forgery
Pleads Guilty and Has Sentence Suspended—Will Repay Organization.
CINCENNATI, Ohio, March 26. Lawrence Ware, Secretary of the Universal Negro, Improvement Association, has no desire whatever to go to Africa. If he had to choose, he would go to the reformatory at Mansfield, or to the penitentiary at Columbus, provided the sentence was not too long, but Africa—no, siree. Ware put himself on record to this effect before Judge Fred L. Hoffman in Criminal Court yesterday, when he was arraigned on a charge of forgery, in connection with signing five checks on the treasury of the association.
He was arraigned before Judge Hoffman to change his plea of not guilty to one of guilty. After entering the plea, he asked permission to make a statement. In his statement he said he signed checks for $52 in order to get funds to assist his wife who was ill. He had every intention of paying the money back, but being in jail had been unable to work and obtain the necessary funds.
As secretary of the association, Ware explained at length, he had the impression that the object of the organization was to get better jobs for that is, to improve the status of the Negro. It seemed, however, some of the members had the impression that the object of the association was to go to Africa.
"I hope they're wrong in that, Judge, because I don't want to go to Africa." Ware explained.
"Which would you rather do?" Judge Hoffman asked him. "Would you rather go to Mansfield or Columbus or go to Africa?" "Well, Judge, if it wasn't too long I wouldn't mind going to Mansfield or Columbus," he said. "I don't want to go to Africa. I just don't want to go to that place." He was so positive in his statement that a wave of laughter swept the courtroom.
Upon Ware's promise to obtain immediate employment and repay the money he had obtained on the checks. Judge Hoffman sentenced him to one year at the Mansfield Reformatory, and then suspended the sentence. Ware promised to repay the money within 30 days.
Trenton to see to it that this bill went over and obtained the signature of the Governor.
Governor Silzer has at least shown this disposition to return appreciation for the able support he received from the race constituents during his last campaign for the office he now holds. Mr. Randolph is a Republican member of the House.

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo
If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with.
Meny scaps and prepared shampoos contain too much free alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle and is very harmful.
Mulled coconut oil shampoo (which is pure and entirely greaseless) is much better than anything else you can use for shampooing as this cannot possibly injure the hair.
Simply put two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsified in a cup or glass with a little warm water, then moisten your hair with water and rub the Mulsified in. It will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleans the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dirt, dirt, dandruff and excess oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, shiny and easy to manage.
You can get Mulsified coconut oil all you need any drug store. It is very cheap, and a few ounces will last everyone in the family for months. Be sure your drugstore gives you Mulsified.

He takes this opportunity to thank his many friends and patrons for their support in the past and for continuance in the future.

The individuals and organizations who partici- ded in the preliminary conference of Kelley Iller's Sanhedrin are to be commended for their itselfah devotion to the cause of the race. The ill couched in the simplest language must not be permitted to become a sounding brass and tinkling umbal.
"The world today has come to a critical period of its existence. Our race likewise has reached a crucial situation. The promis- bes of amelioration and of full citizenship so easily made during the critical period of the Great World War have failed to fulfillment. In this time of readjustment there is growing a very menacing spirit of animosity against the Race and a determination to thrust the Negro down into the most servile and degrading status and to maintain him there forever.
Now while world readjustment is in progress and when every other oppressed group is exerting itself to the utmost to gain its rights and liberties, the Negro Race must beat itself, must concentrate its best thought and energy to withstand the terrible onslaughts made against it and secure its due and rightful status: equal manhood rights and opportunities in every department of life. The Race must be stimulated to utilize all available opportunities for constructive endeavor and must be brought into harmonious working relationships with the white race.

The Race must be stimulated to utilize all available opportunities for constructive endeavor and must be brought into harmonious working relationships with the white race.
"The need is urgent, nay, imperative, then, for the assembling of a national all-Race Conference to consider the present position of the Race, to ferret out and unmask the hostile forces arrayed against it, to formulate a plan of defence and protection, to discover the forces, agencies and organizations which may be utilized in that defence, to effect a United Front of the Race, and to devise many ways and means for full and complete emancipation.
Siki
THE HYDRA-HEAD OF AMERICAN race judice has again shown to the world the leness attained in disseminating its veneal poison to lands when even the French are slowly but succumbing to the propaganda, against the brace-fostered by America.
THE ATTEMPT TO ROB SIKI of his well-crafted creates a pang of regret that this is not France that welcomed and made much of such a of the game as Joe Janetelle, the "Dixie Kid," late Sam McVey and others. France was perfect willing to accept Siki on his merits and show the glory upon him which she had given to former idol, Georges Carpentier.
BUT THIS WAS TOO MUCH for the America and where the propaganda failed in war, in the peace the French had time to listen and well this "land of the free and home of the brave," supported by England, hearken unto the cry of prejudice and today Siki is not the hero he have had there been no world's war, and close contact between our people and those for generations have found inspiration in the attentions of the younger and elder Dumas brook about by such a war.
MEN CANNOT TODAY WONDER at the strongly futile efforts to bring about peace and understanding between the nations of the world, when these nations refuse to give Justice to the races who wallowed in the mud of Flanders R and made sacrifices of blood and treasure hoping the oft promised "Democracy" it is too id expect that they will have reached that place where they can be just even unto themselves.

The Course of Civilization
(Chicago Enterprise).
A CAN CIVILIZATION STAND UPON THE PRINCESS, WORLD BASIS? Earth consists of six continents. The oldest in civilization is Asia, a triennial divided into the racial groups that Semitic Mongolian and the Malays of South Asia. The Semitic is the father of that civilization that still progresses but only in religious mediation. The Semitic nation independent of some other North exerts today; the Mongolian group Japan and China for its leadership, the former feared by white civilization as a success and the Aryan and Malay in India, where Britons have the strength of their wealth powers.

CAN CIVILIZATION STAND UPON THE PRESENT WORLD BASIS? Earth consists of six continents. The oldest in civilization is Asia, a continent divided into the racial groups that are Semitic, Mongolian and the Malay of Southern Asia. The Semitic is the father of that civilization that still progresses but only in religious meditation. The Semitic nation independent of some other nation exists today; the Mongolian group looks Japan and China for its leadership, the former nation feared by white civilization as a successor; and the Aran and Malay in India where the British have the strongest of their wealth and power. AFRICA IS DOMINANTLY NEGRO. A RACIAL GROUP THAT HAS IN ITS CONSCIOUS AFRICAN ODST CIVILIZATION
TION OF EVEN EGYPT. THIS GROUP HAS HAD EVERY ADVERSE CONDITION TO FIGHT, inconceivable heat, wild beasts, sickly jungle surroundings and the preying of brutish men from other continents upon them for the purpose of rendering them chattel slaves. This, group is forging through that darkness into a light that is the mastery of civilization, holding in its hand the sword that is patience and perseverance. Europe is the troublesome continent and the dominant continent during this generation. It is composed of waring, jealous nations, most of them greedy for territory and heirs of a system that thrived upon warfare. They are white people, divided into several racial groups, the Anglo-Saxon being the cleverest, and though not always loveable, the most assertive.
The Anglo-Saxon is now master of the largest part of North America. He has pushed aside the people he discovered there, the Indians, who cared for warfare and hunting but not for politics, and is face to face with only three troublesome elements to his desire to be the master of all he surveys and they are the Negro, the Mongolian and the Latin. He despises the shrewdness of the Negro who, unlike the Indian, is anxious for all he can obtain politically, and for even the mastery of all he surveys; he fears the Mongolian because of the rise of Japan and the tendency of the Mongolian immigrant to cheapen labor; he hates the Latin because the Latin is Caucasian and a competitor for land in the New World.
THE ANGLO-SAXON IS IN POLITICAL CHARACTER NOT DIFFERENT FROM THE ANCIENT ROMAN. His civilization has the same weakness. He is in form Christian but Christianity is with him merely a creed. THE ANGLO-SAXON WORKS THROUGH HIS BRAIN AND SUPPRESSES HIS SOUL. THE DESPISED NEGRO WORKS THROUGH HIS SOUL AND HIS BRAIN SERVES HIS SOUL. CAN A CIVILIZATION WITHOUT A SOUL STAND! AND CAN CIVILIZATION HERSELF DIE?
Newspapers For Class Rooms
(Savannah Tribune)
At the convention of the "National Educational Association, recently held in Cleveland, in the discussion of the curriculum of the country school it was charged that they were less than 50 per cent efficient. Among the constructive suggestions was "The use of newspapers in the class room to vitalize and modernize daily lessons." One speaker in urging its adoption stated that "We clipped 3,661 stories on biological subject from 492 newspapers in the seventeen-month period, and out of that number only fourteen articles contained an inaccuracy. That is a better record than most books can show."

It is well remembered when we wscholar in the eighth grade of the West Broad school. (It was an eighth grade school at time). Principal J. H. Butler who taught this had the scholars read each day, short artiws. This was not only enjoyed by the school it was also informing to them. It is a compliment to the late Principal Butler, to the leading educators give thought and apo to an event that he actually placed in expeyars ago.

Liberia Kicks on the Truth
(Pittsburgh Courier).
President King of Liberia, that far-away land of Africa, has registered his objection to a report given out in this country by Dr. Graham, after the latter's extended trip through the land of superstition and ignorance. We are slow to believe that President King is acting with the intention of killing the nation, we think his objection is the creature of jealousy, rather than its origin, right here in America.
President King of Liberia, that far away in Africa, has registered his objection to a report out in this country by Dr. Graham, after the extended trip through the land of superstitious ignorance. We are slow to believe that Pr King is acting from a sense of real injurer rather we think his objection a creature of jeal which had its origin right here in America. For how can President King justify his ranger and injured royal pride because, for Dr. Graham came back to America and true reported that President King lives in a rented room. That is the truth, and it was used Graham rather to arouse and stimulate a sympathy and help for Liberia than as a c of the country. And President King got me had the Liberian Legislature pass an act for further missionary work by the Lott Carey Missionary Society until the report made Graham is disavowed. Great stuff, this, for who have been the constant beneficiaries of the Carey for the past quarter of a century. And Dr. Graham did not tell the whole truth simply told enough to justify the plea his making for Africa. He might have emphasized the eating of lice is still popular in Liberia, of the work already done. He might have re report of the white man who came back to A and said a great deal more than did Dr. G. The whole truth might embarrass Liberia, is capable of embarrassment.
We account for the whole affair in two perhaps only one is necessary: Either Pr King has been listening to Negroes in this who never did a thing for Liberia, or he is because he did not get the five million he Congress to loan to his country. We are in to the former cause. Jealous Negroes would any time to destroy all hope of salvation? people rather than see others than themselves a well-garned reward for services actually re President King should use better judgement employ more courteous toward people who have unteered their all for the sake of his people a country.
For how can President King justify his reported anger and injured royal pride because, forsoothe, Dr. Graham came back to America and truthfully reported that President King lives in a rented mansion. That is the truth and, it was used by Dr. Graham rather to arouse and stimulate additional sympathy and help for Liberia than as a criticism of the country. And President King got mad and had the Liberian Legislature pass an act forbidding further missionary work by the Lott Carey Foreign Missionary Society until the report made by Dr. Graham is disavowed. Great stuff, this, for people who have been the constant beneficiaries of the Lott Carey for the past quarter of a century. And Dr. Graham did not tell the white truth. He simply told enough to the place his society is making for Africa. He might have emphasized that the eating of life is still popular in Liberia, in spite of work already done. He might have read the report of the white man who came back to America and said a great deal more than did Dr. Graham. The whole truth might embarrass Liberia, if she is capable of embarrassment.
We account for the whole affair in two ways—perhaps only one is necessary: Either President King has been listening to Negroes in this country who never did a thing for Liberia, or he is pouting because he did not get the five million he asked Congress to loan to his country. We are inclined to the former cause. Jeaulous Negroes would prefer any time to destroy all hope of salvation for any people rather than see others than themselves reap a well-earned reward for services actually rendered. President King should use better judgment, and employ more courtesy toward people who have volunteered their all for the sake of his people and his country.

CATHOLICS HAVE MANY 'NEGRO SCHOOLS. The Catholic Church in America is giving increasing attention to Negro education. According to a recent statement it has "eight special schools of more than local importance and about one hundred and twenty-five small parochial schools," with total values of a half a million dollars. Plans are made for the opening of a new school in Maryland—the Cardinal Robbins institute. The Catholic Church claims a Netro membership of 250,000 in the United States.

"Negro Year Book, 1921-1922"
BY MONROE N. WORK. Published by The Tuskeger Institute, Tuskeger, Alabama
PRESUME the Negro Year Book is known to the majority of my readers, but I doubt whether the majority know, what a mine of information this compilation is and how essential such an encyclopedia is to every Negro household.
This is the sixth annual edition; and it is better than its-predecessors in typographical make-up and in the extent of its information. It rises to the dignity of a first class book of reference.
"Neighborhood Secretary"
"Neighborhood Secretary"
I have never, until recently, been able to fathom Mr. Work's method of arrangement. He moves along in orderly fashion, and then, in the midst of a series of census figures, say on the property holdings of Negroes, occurs such an item as this: "Negro makes success at raising hogs. One weighs 1,000 pounds." Or after a long list of the bequests of whites for public education comes the news: "Negro makes new world's record laying bricks." But I have decided that his idea is to make a book not simply for reference, but one that can be read page after page without losing interest. Hence the interspersing of bright little news items. They stimulate the flagging interest.
The book opens with an optimistic note, an account of the various interracial committees to bring about, better conditions in the South. It then recites progress along economic, religious, educational and social welfare lines. It tells of the happenings of the year, of Harding's speech at Birmingham as well as of lynchings and of riots. There is considerable material, much of it new, upon East, West and South Africa. The book has no chapter headings and no divisions beyond headings of paragraphs, a confusing method of arrangement. But what is really the second section tells, in succinct figures, of the political, church and educational history of the race in America. This is followed by long lists of books written in 1921-1922 by the Negro and books on the Negro written by whites. There are paragraphs on music and art, on sports and on
IN ACCORDANCE with the statements made by former Presidents Wilson, Taft and Roosevelt, that to enforce public opinion in behalf of beneficial public measures it is necessary to inform and organize public sentiment before enforcing the public will, the Central Committee on Enforcing Public Opinion, of 32 Court Street. Brooklyn, is taking steps to effect a permanent and all inclusive organization in every public school neighborhood of New York City.
The immediate purpose of this move is to bring about the building of the Dickinson Safety Boulevard to minimize traffic congestion, which measure is now before the Board of Estimate for action; the introduction of Dr. Geccio L. Grell's plan for installing a very large number of roof playgrounds to remove the smaller children from the danger of fatal or crippling street accidents; the taking up of Mr. Harry E. Knapp's propositions to reduce the rising cost of living; the furtherance of Mr. Mayeil Q. Goldman's Public Defender Bill which has been before the Legislature in vain for years, and other measures that will vitally affect the general public. This practical program will also include such improvements and requirements as every neighborhood happens to need or want.
This plan of operations is patterned after the successful work of the United States Bureau of Education which has been found very beneficial in Washington, D.C. and elsewhere: A significant feature of this work

If you want to know of the Negro inventor, here is the place to secure all available information, or if you are more interested in learning what the Negro has done in business you will find many pages describing their fifty years of progress.
One of the interesting bits of odd information is that of the Negro towns in our United States. There are 68 of these towns. The largest, Buxton, Iowa, 5,000 population, has approximately 1,000 whites. That in itself is an interesting item, and one would like to know of the relation at Buxton between black and white. The next in size are Brooklyn, Ill., and Boley, Oklahoma, 3,000 each. Mound Bayou, of which we once heard much, has only 750. New Jersey has a Negro town, Snow Hill, with a population of 1,250. Another intensely interesting page is an estimate made by the editor of the extent of yearly sickness and death among Negroes. He shows that in the South about 450,000 Negroes are seriously ill at the time, and that this means about 18 days a year of sickness for each Negro inhabitant. It ends by proving that it would pay the South to spend $100,000,000 annually to improve Negro health.
The book has a remarkably full and valuable bibliography, not only of books upon the Negro, but of magazine articles. Indeed, it is a well of information, and the deeper one must be the more we find. One must be exceedingly grateful for such a laborious, painstaking piece of work.
is that its nature has caused the creation of a new profession, which however, has been in operation so far in a limited number of cases. This new vocational opportunity is that of a "neighborhood secretary" and as there exist more than 650 such neighborhoods in New York City there are of course openings for the same number of persons, so they young or old, of both sexes, to establish themselves in permanent and independent positions of trust and public work of their own making, provided they have the initiative to undertake such new work. Starting along these lines such persons co-operating with this committee will receive the necessary information and every possible co-operation from this Central Committee to enable them to go ahead of their own motion.
The kind of work in question being of an interesting and necessary nature and at the same time of a very utilitarian character in promoting the public welfare it should appeal particularly to young men and women looking for a promising career, as well as to men and women of an advanced age seeking an opportunity where competition cannot affect them, in fact, to any native or foreign-born resident, old enough to realize the importance of the task to be undertaken and the requirement that all neighbors of a neighborhood are necessary elements in the formation of a unified and effective public opinion. Detailed information and instruction regarding this work will be obtained at any time from the secretary of the Central Committee.

The resolution was passed.
Boy Prodigy Found In Central Africa
Boy Prodigy Found In Central Africa
14 Year Old Boy Is An Intellectual Marvel He Speaks Many Languages; Expert Interpreter.
CAPETOWN. SOUTH AFRICA. March 26.—The unlimited intellectual capacity of the pure Negro is again illustrated by a fourteen-year-old boy of the Alunda tribe in Darkest Africa. Mutumbu, for so this prodigy is named, lives in a district three hundred miles from the nearest railroad and where it takes a caravan or native carricles one month of steady trekking to reach it. He was taken in at age of five by Dr. A. L. Piper, a medical missionary at Masumba. There, while making himself generally useful, he assimilated all the learning that he could from members of the household.
Mutumba studied diligently in the mission schools and is now able to read and write English and his own language, Alunda, and speaks six other native tongues. He has translated the entire life of Christ, fifty Bible stories, and over one hundred hymns into the native language. He acts as interpreter for the missionaries when they cannot understand a chief of a distant tribe, he often takes charge of the services at the little mission, and is loved and honored by all his people. He also operates a typewriter. Miss Marle Jensen, a Methodist missionary in the Congo, has brought the report of this remarkable boy to this country. She says that the only thing Mutumba wants from civilization, since she cannot bring him a modern education, is a pair of shoes so that he may better travel from tribe to tribe teaching his people. Miss Jensen is also studying spinning of cotton cloth at Hampton with the plan of later teaching it to the native women who are too poor to pay the exhorbitant prices asked for the filmsest of materials by the Portuguese traders.

Our King Has Come To Life Again
An Easter Poem
By Rev. E. A. ABBOTT
HOSANNA be the glad refrain,
Our King has come to life again;
Hosanna let the people sing,
High praise to Christ their risen King.
Jesus has triumphed o'er the grave!
Jesus who died our souls to save;
Sing, all ye ransomed people, sing,
Loud praises to your risen King.
Chase all your fears, and tears away:
For Christ your Lord is risen today;
He's burst the bonds of sin and hell!
The monster Death before Him fell.
He lives! He lives! No more to die!
He lives! He lives! He's ever nigh;
Hosanna to the Lamb once slain!
Hosanna for He lives again.
He lives! He lives! No more to die!
He lives! He lives! He's ever nigh;
Hosanna to the Lamb once slain!
Hosanna for He lives again.
Victorious over death and hell,
Our Jesus has done all things well;
O praise Him, all ye heavenly host—
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

A Straight Talk To Father
By DR. E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS

THE responsibility of a father to his son is great, but his obligations to this same son is greater. Nature gave him this son, whose physical, mental, and spiritual care is in his keeping; and the father who shirks this duty will sooner or later pay a penalty, in mental ingush, in which he will be desolate indeed.
This obligation of a father to his son cannot be taken over by the mother. It is a father's job; it cannot be done by a mother. This obligation is to remove ignorance of things sexual, and in its place give knowledge to his son of the pitfalls and traps that lie in his path, as he develops from boyhood into the inexperience of youth and finally into early manhood.
To do this successfully the father should have a plan and scope; a guide for this delicate talk; the best book that I know of, and one that is both interesting and practical, is "Ten Sex Talks to Boys." This book is published by the J. B. Lippincott Company of Philadelphia, Pa.
knows that disease lurks there. If by accident he finds himself in such company, he gets out of it as quickly as he can, because he knows danger surrounds them.
The picture of misery, pain and disease is so forcefully impressed on his mind by the advice and knowledge given to him by his father that all the endearing charms of prostitutes have no effect upon his many power, and promiscuous and illicit indulgences are thus not a part of his youthful life. In this way he keeps his health and prevents chronic invalidism or even lunney.
There is another kind of a son.
If every father who has a son will get this little book he will then be in a position to impart knowledge of things sexual to the opening consciousness of his growing boy. Do not have a false idea of modesty that you will be putting dangerous notions into his head; your son's mentality is expanding; his physical body is growing; physiologically his sex organs will begin to function, and if you do not give him the necessary knowledge in the proper way, of the control of this function, he will not be held in check, and will go along the road of least existence and ignorance, leading to a life of immorality, pain and venual disease. What kind of a son would you like to have?
There is a son who respects his mother and sisters, and because of this, respects all members of their sex; such a son keeps himself clean morally. He does not seek the company of prostitutes, for he

The picture of misery, pain and disease is so forcefully impressed on his mind by the advice and knowledge given to him by his father that all the endearing charms of prostitutes have no effect upon his many power, and promiscuous and illicit indulgences are thus not a part of his youthful life. In this way he keeps his health and prevents chronic invalidism or even lunacy.
There is another kind of a son—I see him quite often. This son has no respect for his mother or sisters. He therefore has no respect for the members of their sex. This son is immoral. He cannot be trusted in the company of a decent girl. His ideas of life are always directed by the impulses of sexual immorality. This is the type of young man whose actions bring down upon his head the curses of some father for the dishonor and ruination of his daughter. He seeks constantly the company of prostitutes and finally he is caught in the clutches of venereal diseases, premature debility, chronic invalidism and a cloudy and dismal future life.
These are types of sons. It is up to the father to guide his boy, to show him the way. Do not let him be guided by 'ignorance, for she is an expensive teacher. Master of one's self has its early beginning in the accepted obligations of the wise father.
