Leo Singleton, nineteen. 3 East 134th Street, and Beatrice Pennyfeather, twenty-eight, 2108 Madison Avenue, last week pleaded guilty in General Sessions to the murder of Louis Rothstein, an insurance collector, 204 West 19th Street, and Samuel Kearn, also an insurance collector, 592 Broadway, Astoria, in West 59th Street, west of Columbus Circle, September 14.

MANAGER OF AS8'N OF
TRADIE DISAPPEARS
William T. White, manager of the Association of Trade and Commerce, $230 Seventh Avenue, mysteriously disappeared on April 28, leaving apparently no trace to his whereabouts.
Beyond declaring themselves very much surprised, officials of the association were reticent as to the cause of Mr. White's disappearance. The Amsterdam News has learned from reliable sources, however, that many bills that had been due were left unpaid, al though the money to pay them had been collected. Among them are an electric light bill for $72, gas bill for $30, telephone, laundry and meat bills.

Admits in Court That He Is a Fake Magician
Hindu Salada, 50, magician and fortune-teller, of 118 West 130th Street, who had been held in $500 ball for a further hearing on a charge of vapancy, was dismissed in the Heights Court last Friday for lack of evidence. Salada had been accused by Detective White with having taken women into his place for immoral purposes.
The magician told Magistrate Simpson that he had been a fortune-teller all his life. He admitted that he had been in the habit of going to Elmer and Amend, wholesale druggists, at Third Avenue and East 18th Street, where he would buy lodestones for a few cents and sell them at from $10 to $15 each to his patrons. He was reading the horoscope of the two women, he said, when the detectives broke down his door.
Salada reluctantly admitted that he had been convicted of disorderly conduct and had been arrested several times before. The arrest, he said, was a "public robber. He didn't think about those."
Lightfoot Gets N. J. Nomination
Fearless Atlantic City Attorney Named By Third Ward Republican Club.
By Wilfred R. Bain.
(Special Correspondent)
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., May 7.—Thoroughly aroused over the recent wave of segregation, indignant and tired of broken party plagues by white candidates, Negroes have nominated Attorney James A. Lightfoot, as a candidate for a place in the Legislature of New Jersey. The nomination was offered Mr. Lightfoot at a meeting of the Third Ward Regular Republican Club, held here several days ago.
This action is the answer of the colored citizens here, to the two adverse decisions by the State Board of Education concerning the case of little Margarite Edwards, around whom the question of segregation in the public schools, has revolved for the past six months.
Since that time, and up to the present, the lawyer has doggedly stood by his guns and is still battling in the courts to have the matter settled. Two adverse decisions have been rendered, in which the issue of segregation has been disregarded and the question turned into a matter of "policy," which it is claimed, is the right of the Board of Education to decide. An appeal from these decisions is now pending in the State Supreme Court, and from there it will go to Washington, if necessary.
Significant, and most favorable, is the reported action on the part of white leaders of the Republican Party in Atlantic County, which embraces also Atlantic City. It is declared that they look upon the nomination of the attorney most favorably and will lead their support. If this is true, his election is almost assured in advance, as powers of control lay in their hands.
ord) Railroad Union, entitled "White Workers and Black: Theory versus Practice in the Labor Movement."
Wielding a frank and trenchant pen, Mr. Maya goes thoroughly into the existing relationship between whites organized labor and the Negro workers, asking fact after fact as to the existence of discriminatory prejudice against the democratic theories precluded by the A. P. of L. and closing his remarks with the advice that Negroes must look for relief from these conditions to the rural Labor leaders rather than to the countervatives.

FOLK SONGS ORIGINATED BY NEGROES
FOLK SONGS ORIGINATED BY NEGROES
Harry T. Burleigh, Noted Composer, Makes Reply to Southern Critic Who Claims That the Whites Taught Them.
Speaking on "The Negro's Contribution to Music" before the West Harlem Community Forum last Thursday on the occasion of the celebration of Music Week, Mr. Harry T. Burleigh, noted composer and singer, emphasized the fact that the Negro, and the Negro alone, was the originator of the only folk songs known in America. He told of the attempts of certain writers to take away the credit from the Negro and give it to early white settlers, who, it is now being claimed, taught the Negroes the songs.
Mr. Burleigh cited as an example the case of Judge Stanford, editor of one of the leading dailies in Montgomery, Ala., who had written an article to that effect. Mr. Burleigh said that a friend of his in Montgomery had sent him a telegram asking him to contradict the statement and that he had replied by wire as follows:
"The distinctive traits of the Negro songs could not have been learned from white folks' music of any kind, but came with the Negro mind from its own native lair.
"Krebhjel, greatest authority on folk songs in America, says: 'Nowhere save on the plantations of the South could the emotional life essential to the birth of true folk song be developed; nowhere else was there the necessary meeting of the spiritual cause and the simple agent and vehicle. The white inhabitants of the continent have never been in the state of cultural ingenuousness which prompts spontaneous emotional utterance in (Continued on Page 6).
Charged with altering a $100 Liberty Bond, James Gaines, 22, a chauffeur, of 20 West 133t Street, was held for a further hearing when arraigned in the Washington Heights Court last Monday.
According to Secret Service Officer John H. Deidy, Gaines was followed into the boothback parlor of Mike Cassella, 490 Lebox Avenue. Here, it is alleged, Gaines erased the name of Felix Carnival, original owner of the bond, and substituted it with that of Cassella's.
The bond in question is said to have been one of a number of Liberty Bonds, totaling $3,500, which were stolen from Carnival two years ago by two colored men.
Gaines is alleged to have told the police that he got the bond from Bressie Penneyfeather, who, with Leon Singleton, have been found guilty of the murder of two white men in West 59th Street last September, and are now awaiting sentence in the Tombs.

Stuff They're Selling Makes Friends Fight
"I am going to lay off liquor for keeps." Mrs. Rebecca Ross, 25, of 137 West 133th Street, promised Magistrate Simpson in the Heights Court last week after he had fined her $3 or 3 days for disorderly conduct. "The hooch newdays will make the best of friends fight," she said. "It isn't like the liquor one got in the good old days."
Mrs. Ross and her friend, Martha Tucker, 25, of 137 West 138th St. were charged with kicking out a taxi window while returning from a wedding feast on Seventh Avenue. Mrs. Tucker pleaded not guilty and was discharged. She said that she had been merely defending herself from the frantic kickings of Mrs. Rose, who, she said, was in a highly intoxicated condition.
Patrolman Erichsen of the 38th Presidet, who made the arrest, said that he came on the scene following the complaint of the taxi-driver, and that when he tried to quiet Mrs. Rose she used abusive language.
Posse Dynamites Miner From Home
Forced Out of Barricaded House and Slain—Two Whites Dead.
(Crusader Service)
HELENA, Ala. May 7.—Refusal of a time clerk to pay a colored miner on time, resulted in three men, including the time clerk and the miner, being killed and two others (both white) being wounded here yesterday afternoon and last night. After riot calls had been sent to the Shelby County Seat, at Columbiana, and to the Sheriff's office in Birmingham, the house in which he barricaded himself was dynamited and fired by a pose of nearly 100 officers and white camp-followers.
The dead are: Allen Abernathy, white; Charlie Phillips, white; John King, colored. The wounded are: J. W. Roy, white farmer and former Deputy Sheriff, and Colley S. Roy, also white.
According to witnesses, all white, King went to the office of the coal company and asked for his pay. After being told by Abernathy, the time clerk, that he would have to wait, he left without comment.
He returned in a few minutes, drew a pistol and shot Abernathy in the side and strolled back to his home and barricaded himself. His house is about 300 yards from the office.
Failing in their first rush on the house, the poose decided to dynastite, and fire the house in an effort to dhlodge the miner. King was slowly forced from the house by the heat, taking refuge beneath, but continued his fight until he was killed.
ELEVATOR MAN SHOT BY 2 MEN
Call At West Fifty-Sixth Street Apartment on Sixth Floor and Are Denied Admission—Fire When Asked to Leave the Building.
Awakened by revolver shots, tenants of the apartment house at 342 West Fifty-sixth Street early Monday found Percy Hutchinson, twenty-seven, elevator operator, lying in the sixth floor hallway. The, elevator was, only the ground floor.
The elevator man managed, as instructed to the elevator man, and entered the building and demanded to be taken to the sixth floor, where they rang the bell of an apartment occupied by Mrs. Regina Marks and Mrs. Grace Neberg. The elevator man suggested that the two leave the building, he said, whereupon they drew revolvers and shot him through the body. Leaving him on the sixth floor they ran the elevator down to the street level and escaped.
Hutchinson was attended by Dr. Shapiro, who lives in the building, and sent to Bellevue in a serious condition.
Mrs. Marks said she had heard the two men at her door and said one had asked her to open the door, saying:
"This is Charlie." She said she knew no one by that name and did not open the door. Both Mrs. Marks and Mrs. Isenberg were questioned by the police, but could throw no light on the shooting.

(Preston News Service)
MONTGOMERY, Ala., May 7.—It was a sad scene in court here last Tuesday morning when Roland Gordon, a former slave, aged 94 years, told how he had been cheated out of his life's savings, which amounted to less than $900. He told of how this white man, Rufus L. Holland, took $240 of his money and later threatened the aged man if he did not give him another $500. Gordon told the court that Holland approached him three times and told him that he was an attorney and had made it his special business to assist colored men who had served in the Confederate army during the civil war to secure a pension. "He told me that I had several thousand dollars coming to me from the government at Washington, but that it would cost me a little money. He told me to not say anything to anybody about trying to secure this money from the government, for jealous Negroes would tell white people about Negroes to have money, would probably put up a fight and this would cost it cost too much to secure the pension.
"I listened to the man and, after he had explained my savings and paid him the $40 to start the case. Later he told me he needed more money and told me not to breathe this to
HOSPITAL TO HAVE
COLORED PERSONNEL
President Harding has broken silence on the Tuskegee Hospital situation to inform the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People that the institution on Tuskegee grounds for the care of colored veterans of the world war is to be manned entirely by colored personnel, including colored doctors and nurses. This decision ende the fear that had prevailed for some time that an attempt would be made through the Veterans' Bureau to man the colored hospital with white doctors and nurses, leaving only mental labor for colored people.

Voodoo Tale Shown to Be Absurd
Justice pulled the bandage from her eyes long enough to see that Earl Green, 27, of 58 East 101st street, was exonerated when arraigned before Magistrate Ryttenberg in Night Court, charged with disorderly conduct, last week.
George Bett, who said he lived in Yonkers and was a soda dispenser in the Grand Central Terminal, appeared in court with his head swathed in bandages and told of the manner in which he came by his injuries that made it appear for a time as though Green would not be home for some time.
He was riding on a northbound Madison avenue surface car, Bett said, when Green attacked and knocked him down and then punched him with both fists, doing the damage he exhibited in court. Then Green was permitted to testify.
The car was crowded, Green said, and she was standing in front of a young woman who, he believed, was embarrassed for some reason. Then, he said, so saw that Bett, who got beside her, was annoying her by placing his hand on her arm.
Green said he asked the young woman if Bett was annoying her, and when she admitted he was, he warned Bett to stop before "things happened." Bett then rose to his feet, and thinking he was about to be assaulted, Green said, he struck first, knocking Bett down. Green was discharged.

CRINFIELD, Md., May 9.—Fantastic stories put out by white newspapers connecting up the discovery of the bodies of two infants in a pond near this town with the voodoo rites of Africa, whose significance the prejudiced whites insist of misinterpretations have been repudiated by the authorities here.

and well-being. The inventions of the twentieth century point to the marvelous forces which surround us. But for some reason, except for the researches of men spiritually inclined, the forces that control and underly man's true self, and their study, have been neglected by the average man.
Today, however, much interest is being awakened in these matters, and the ancient occult mysteries of Africa and India are being examined and accepted. This is as it should be.
Man is more than flesh and blood. His powers are marvelous. The Magic of Egypt, Chaldea, India and other places, well known to disciples, are today being assimilated by the Western man. We invite all those who are interested in things Occult to see us. To the Uninitiated, all things are impossible; but to the INITIATED, IT IS SO! He that can understand, let him understand.

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair
If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash it
with.
Many soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much free alkali. This gives
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
very harmful. Multifluid coconut oil
shampoo (which is pure and entirely
greaseless), is much better than anything
else you can use for shampooing, as this
article usually impairs the hair.
Simply put two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulishol in a cup or glass of water. Mix the hair with water and rub the Mulishol in. It will make an abundance of creamy lather, and cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. The mixture every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excess oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fir and silky. You can get Mulishol coconut oil shampoo at any drug store. It is very cheap, and a few ounces will last everyone in the family for more than a month. You can save your drugent gives you Mulishol —

Charles West, the famous athlete

and one of the finest ovations ever

West did not go back to Washington with the rest of the team, and was not present when the rest of the W. & J. men, who participated in winning the relay race, were greeted by the students and citizens of this city.
West had won so many honors
at the big events in Philadelphia

Champion of Spain in
Six Rounds
MEXICO CITY, Mexico, May 4
(Pacific News Bureau).—Sam
Langford, the veteran American
Negro fighter of 28 years' ring
activity, has, within the last 30 days
acquired the titles of heavyweight
champion of Mexico and Spain. A
few weeks ago Kid Savage, the
champion of Mexico, met defeat at
the hands of the veteran Negro.
Last week the idol of Spain was
diamonded in the sixth round.
Before an immense audience in the Mt. Toro bull ring, Sam Langford defeated Adrena Bala, the heavyweight champion of Spain, in the sixth round of what was scheduled to be a finish fight. Langford received a roaring reception. Kid Wang was at the ringside and faced a challenge to the winner; however, from the next manner in which Langford disposed of the two champions there is but little home of a return match or a likely candidate for Champion Langford.

Young America Greets Pugilist Harry Wills
Harry Lionized by Youngsters at Big Field Day at Ebbets Field Last Week
Harry Wills took a day off from stevedoring to 'e the guest of the Rotary Club of Brooklyn at their athletic carnival at Ebbets Field held in connection with Athletic Day of Boys' Week, and the giant Negro heavyweight was the center of attraction. Wills watched the relay races for high schools, junior high schools and elementary schools staged by the Public Schools Athletic League on a 220 yard track, laid out on Square Ebbets' immaculate lawn, and was especially interested in see the boys of his own color alternating with white youngsters on relay teams.
A photographer asked Harry to pose for a picture with the boys in the grappiststand, and Wills assented, although it almost proved disastrous for him. It seemed that every one of the 7,000 boys wanted to shake hands with Wills before the camera and he was soon lost to sight in a mob of howling, screeching youngsters. The races were halted while a couple of policemen got him back to the field.
Wills refereed a bout between Harlem Tommy Murphy and Peter Locke. Harlem Tommy, a good lightweight many years ago and now boxing instructor at the Crescent Athletic Club, went three rounds and when the two boxers continued to mix it after time was called. Wills tucked one under each arm and carried them to the dugout.
Commercial High School won the high school 880-yard relay, with New Utrecht High second. Boys' High, third, and Commercial's second team, fourth. Boys of Dewey School, No. 136, won the junior high school class competition with Junior High 147b first and second teams following.
Union Defeats Hampton
Heavy Firing by Union Siences Batteries of Hampton, Which Receive Severe Pounding
HAMPTON, Va. May 7 —Union gave Hampton a decisive trimming in the second and last game of the Hampton Institute season. The Richmond team won casually by a score of 8 to 3. Merritt, or Union, pitched great ball and with good support did not allow the Hampton team to score until the last of the eighth inning. St. Clair Robinson, pitcher for Hampton, was hit for an assortment of singles, doubles, and triples that amounted to nine hits. Poor fielding and numerous errors by the Hampton team contributed to its defeat. In the fifth inning, Hargrove substituted for Robinson and allowed only one hit to be made in the two and one-half innings that he pitched.
Both teams played under adverse conditions. Rain fell continuously all day and delayed the game an hour. The rain subsided long enough to let the teams get into action. Darkness soon came and halted the game at the end of the eighth inning, after Hampton had scored three runs off three hits. Score by innings:
Union ..... 2 0 2 0 2 2 0 0 x-8
Hampton ..... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 x-3
Batteries—Union: Merritt and Jackson. Hampton: Robinsen, Hargrove and Jackson.

WASHINGTON, D. C. May 11.—Athletes from the Panama Canal Zone may be America's hope in the marathon race to be held at the Paris Olympiad in 1924. During the recent maneuvers of the 42nd Infantry in the jungles, several of the regiment's long distance men were detailed as runners to deliver messages from the jungle camp to the divisional headquarters in Bailboa.
The 42d Infantry is composed of natives of Porto Rico, all naturalised Americans. Sergeant Cabellero is the long distance champion and Antonio Crus and Carlos Moreno have finished a close second and third in recent races. Arrangements have been made by Homer Baker, former international champion middle distance runner, to conduct a marathon run on the Baibca Stadium track to determine the possibilities of the soldier athletes.

Hilldale Club Wins Again
Crack Philadelphia Players Spike Rallies of Opponents for Big Game Saturday
Ed. Bolden's Hilldale Club won a hard fought game from the Doberty Silk Sox, nationally known as the Paterson Silk Sox at Hilldale Park here today by the score of 8 to 7, although the Sox did make rallies in the 8th and 9th innings, but they were one run short when Lohr hit to John Henry Lloyd for the final out. A Raymond who started for the Sox was knocked out of the box in the 4th innings when Hilldale unloosened a barrage of hits and aided by an error by Pletz sent six runs over the platter. They added two more in the 5th on a combination of a double, single error and a triple steal engineered by Lloyd, Santon and Carr. A fast triple play was also executed by Hilldale in the 7th, with two men on. Allon speared Reimann's liner, tagged Crowell out and throw to Captain Lloyd setting Lohr off the bag by a foot. Red Ryan was on the mound for Hilldale and although hard in spots was tight in the pinches and was accorded good support in the latter part of the game. Hilldale started after Raymond as if they meant to finish him right in the innertime but with a spectacular play by Lohr when he spotted a liner from the bat of Lloyd and doubled Briggs at second was the feature.

Johnson Knocks Out Lodge
But White Fighter Claims Foul and They Will Fight Again on Sunday
in Havana
(Special to Amsterdam News)
HAVANA, May 7.—The crowd gathered here to see the fight between Jack Johnson, former heavy-weight (titleholder), and Farmer Lodge were greatly disappointed when, in the fourth round Johnson uncorked a haymaker which landed as he directed and the Farmer went down claiming a foul.
During the entire four rounds the fight appeared to be very tame, as Lodge seemed to hold the former champion in great respect. Johnson appeared to be satisfied to "carry" the white fighter for a while but decided to end matters in the fourth round. At no time during the contest did Lodge appear to have a chance to even worry John Arthur, and when the fight came to an untimely end the crowd rose and demanded that the men continue.
At the end of a hot argument the fighters, with the approval of the referee and Boxing Commission, decided to fight again next Sunday. coupons held by the crowd to be honored upon presentation when the men again face each other. Negotiations are under way for a fight between Johnson and Sam Langford and Jack will leave here shortly after his setto with Lodge.

Howard Relay Team Made Good Showing at Penn. Relay Carnival
Howard Relay Team Made Good Showing at Penn. Relay Carnival
Brilliant Performance of Boys Representing Great Colored Institution When Stacked Against the Country's Best.
WASHINGTON, D. C., May 4. In the great showing made by Negro athletes at the University of Pennsylvania relay carnival, Frank In Field, Philadelphia, Pa., April 27-28. Howard's relay team composed of Robinson, Craft, Bright and Bridges played a conspicuous role. In the one mile college relay event against Bates, Bucknell, University of Montreal, West Virginia, Colgate and Brown, Howard finished a close second behind Bates in 3 minutes and 26 seconds, which was the second fastest time of the meet.
Bridges, who ran the first leg for Howard, got off to a poor start and was handled roughly going around the first turn. He recovered his long stride on the straight away and passed one after another of his rivals to finish in third position close up to the leaders. Craft took up the good work and ran a heady race, reserving his energies for the final spurt which placed Howard in second position, three yards behind Bates. Bright started out to run the race of his life. After hurdling a vaulting pole which had fallen across the track, he set sail for the leader, passed him on the farther turn and opened up a gap of seven yards on the field.
All the Howardites in the stand sat back and rested easily when Leo Robinson, "the old master," took up the running. He ran easily for 200 yards, confident that he could bent the field in the final dash for the tape. Both Brown and Bates passed him on the farther turn and there the fight for the tape began. With the crowd velling madly for a Howard victory, Robinson passed the runner for Brown, but the anchor man from Bates stepped heavily on the gas and was never headed. He broke the tape one yard ahead of Robinson in the 3 minutes and 26 seconds which was the second fastest time of the meet. Incidentally, Howard had achieved her greatest success by running the fastest race ever negotiated by a Negro organization at the University of Pennsylvania relay carnival.
Howard had two entries in field events—Jack Young and Thomas Anderson. On Friday, Anderson threw the hammer, the second largest throw of the meet but fouled by stepping out of the ring. The rain on Saturday held all disc records down and both Young and Anderson failed to place. Both made a good showing.
HOWARD'S ANNUAL TRACK MEET
WASHINGTON, D. C., May 4.—excelling by far all its predecessors both in quality and number of entries, the fourth annual track and field meet under the auspices of the Department of Physical Education of Howard University on the Campus. Saturday, May 12 bids fair to become the athletic classic

of the season. The list of events
includes all the championship con-
tests on the Intercollegiate Athletic
Association's program. In addition,
the city high school and inter-
scholastic championships give all-indications of being a battle royal between Dunbar, Armstrong and
Baltimore High Schools.
The feature event of the program, however, will be an exhibition of broad jumping by "Ned" Gourdin, ex-national pentathlon champion and holder of the world's record of 25 feet and 3 inches in the running broad jump. Gourdin will also run a special 100 yard dash against Cornellus Thompson, star sprinter of the Alpha Physical Culture Club of New York City.
A special 220 yard dash is being arranged which will probably include C. Thompson, New York University; "Jimmie" Moore, Pennsylvania State College; Kelly Perry, Howard University, and J. Irvine, Hampton Institute. In the relay championship, the public of Washington will have their first opportunity of seeing Howard's championship team which made the second fastest time in the mile championship at the University of Pennsylvania relay carnival pitted against Hampton, Maryland Normal and the crack Wilberforce team which is making a special trip cast to participate in these games. Hampton has entered 30 athletes, including the famous "Red" Dabney with the avowed purpose of capturing the point trophy. Howard is well fortified in all the events with such stars as Robinson, Nichols, Craft, Young, Green, Bridges, Bright and Anderson and should make the going fast and furious all the way.
STUNT NIGHT AT "Y"
Verily, me lads, Saturday evening, May 12th, will be the night of nights at the West 133th Street Branch. At that time the Young Men's Division promises to put over a fitting climax to its successful basketball season, in the form of "Stunt Night." Such wortles as the versatile Charlie Major, national junior high jump champion, and the redoubtable "Babe" Cooke, former peer of scholastic double furlongers, promises to "strut their stuff" in their own way. Besides, the "Married Men Wonders" of the "Y" staff have some queer notions about their ability, and so will tackle the "WMD Flive." In fact, these "Wonders" go so far as to say that they are going to teach the YMD quintet a thing or two about dropping 'em in. Verily, feathers are to die fly.

Williams and Jones Tied in the C. A. B. P. Billiard Tournament
In the closing days of the Anateur Billiard Players 10th Annual Round Robin of 18:2 Balkeline Billiards, George Williams, Ex-Club Champion of 1917 has staged a real come-back. Clarence Jones, a new starter in the Club's Annual affair has come through a field of ten with one game to play which is with Williams, while Williams has two more games, one with Vice President Nell and one with Adams.
Then for the play off between Williams and Jones. Owing to Jones being busy evenings, this play off will have to be played in the afternoon of Friday the 11th. to the disappointment of many their followers and fans. Robertson, with three games to go, seems likely to the Hougland, who has finished his string of 11 games. Manager Willis has been requested to arrange a Consolation Tournament in two classes, the winner of each class to be matched to decide who shall have the Consolation Prize. 1st Bunch.

In the Face of Many Obstacles Bold Captain Again Brings In the Famous Boat
Even "Cap" Wilson had his doubts about being able to steer the famous Moonlight Ship, successfully through a channel which had been for months blocked with a number of affairs and that he came through with colors flying speaks well for the only pilot who can in the hardest times successfully pilot a ship with enough passengers to make it a paying venture on a moonlight sail.
Leaving her moorings at New Star Casino on time, a full complement manned the boat and saw to it that all the passengers enjoyed the time for which they had been waiting. A merry throng hailed the captain as the boat went down the river and from early evening until the wee sun' hours of the morning the friends of the captain and their friends danced to the fine music of Allie Ross and his orchestra.
Going his competitors one better Captain Wilson introduced gas balloons which kept the air all during the sailing of the ship and with the decorations this new wrinkle met with hearty approval by those present as almost everybody insisted on holding a string to one of the balloons.

Drama Scoring at the With Big Music
Management Bars Rowdy Over Without a Hitch, M Of Big A
At the Lafayette Theatre on Monday night "The Unloved Wife" scored a big success and it is to be hoped that many who formerly patronized the drama at this house will again take advantage of the opportunity to witness the splendid work of the colored artists in the show.
It is indeed a source of great regret that we are denied the opportunity of witnessing the work of such performers as Evelyn Ellis, Hayes Proyer and others in the drama more often. "The Unloved Wife" is a strong story of a husband who thought that he could overcome his better side and carry through a hate brought about in the early days of his life when he fell victim to a social butterfly.
The unfairness of a person attempting revenge through the suffering of others were clearly shown and the regeneration of John Pennington as played by John Pryor was welcome by a most appreciative audience. The work of Evelyn Pills again won her that applause of which she is so deserving. Others in the cast include: Margaret Hibbard Brown, Cecil Gordon, Ethn Carr, Bessie Allison and Mone Hawley. The Lafayette management took drastic steps on Monday night to for the rowdy youngsters who have in the past flocked to the gallery with the object of creating a disturbance. The better class of people will gladly welcome this bit of news and applaud the Lafayette people for making a more that will mean so much to both the performers and auditors bent on an evening's enjoyment.
"Follow Me" in Return Date At Lafayette
Popular Marshall Rogers Now Leading Comedian With Production Underlined for Next Week
"Follow Me." after meeting with great success on the road, will play a return data at the Lafayette Theatre next week and from all reports this section of Harlem will see a much improved show although it was hitting high when last seen in these parts.
Clippings sent to this office from various cities where the show played proves that as an attraction "Follow Me" has not only held its own on the road, but surpassed many which went out and almost fell by the wavies. A fast up to date colored musical comedy at the Lafayette Theatre at this time is bound to meet with success and the production underlined for next week will without doubt meet with a hearty welcome while here.
The cast is headed by Marshall Rogers and Clifford Ross, who will be ably assisted by such well known performers as Ernest Whitman. Susie Sutton, Alice Gorgas, Bob Bramlett, Stafford and Watt, Iola Young, Jennie Dancy, the Follow- Me Four and the Three Struttin' Fools.

"How Come" to Remain on Broadway All Summer
Stories to the Contrary Denied by Sam Grisman Who Says Show Will Make Run
Stories to the effect that "How Come" the big colored production pow at the Apollo Theatre would close at the end of the present week were emphatically denied by Sam Grisman, one of the producers of the vehicle now holding its own down on the "Big Street." Variety, the theatrical publication, has been running stories for the past two weeks poking fun at the colored show and many believe that something is at the bottom of the attitude of this paper as the show is admittedly superior to "Liza" which closed at the Bayes at few weeks ago.
Mr. Crisman when interviewed by a News representative was emphatic in his denial of the things said by his publication of "How Come" and stated in an uncertain terms that the show will remain the Apollo for a summer run. Eddie Hunter continues as the bright particular spot in comedy now appearing before Broadway audiences, with Billie Higgins sharing the honors.
From sources we consider reliable, it is stated, that the powers that be on lower Broadway look with dismay at the coming of so many performers to the magic street in the theatrical world and variety is simply the mouthpiece of this element which would deny the opportunity to colored performers to sell their wares in the face of the closing of many of the big white offerings of the same kind.

Is "Adam's Rib"
New Cecil B. De Mille Picture Takes One Back to the Cavegman Period
A story with real human interest is "Adam's Rib." Coel B. De Mille's latest Paramount which is coming to the Lincoln Theatre tomorrow, Thursday. The theme of the production is the untanglement of the affairs of a husband and wife by their young daughter, a typical example of the sensible type of the modern girl.
Anna Q. Nilsson, as Mrs. Ramsay, the wife of Michael Ramsay, a prosperous Chicago business man, played by Milton Sills, has taken a fancy to M. Jaronur (Theodore Kosloff, the exiled king of Moranda). Her husband, fearing that he is going to lose her, hips upon a plan to have Jaronur's country recalc him to the throne.
Moranisa is in need of funds, and Rainsy, an enormously rich man, buys ups all the wheat in Moranisa and in return they recall Jaramir to his throne, and he is thus gotten out of the way. His wife returns to him, after realizing that her interest in Jaramir was only a passing fancy.

Thrilling Picture to Follow "Robin Hood" at the Roosevelt Theatre
Thrilling Picture to Follow "Robin Hood" at the Roosevelt Theatre
"Down to the Sea in Ships" One of the Most Marvelously Amazing Attractions At This Theatre Next Week.
What will be written in screen history as a masterpiece of its kind is offered in Elmer Cliffon's "Down to the Sea in Ships" - a romance of the golden days of whaling. Taking more than a year to produce, it presents mute testimony that anything extraordinary in production cannot be achieved by working per schedule. Here is a picture which exudes the richest kind of atmosphere, local color, detail and romance. It is authentic because Cliffon went up to the whaling city, New Bedford, and gained the cooperation of its people. The director has gotten away from the heath path.
While the picture brings forth the whaling industry of the fates with its dramatic moments revolving around this vital enterprise of winteryear, there is also intervention a romance, the background of which is colored with a rich glamour. The rolls and heliotrops of the dead past live again with all their picturesque atmosphere. It serves as an education as well as an entertainment. Everything seemingly, has been done to make it complete with the color and detail of the period in which it is laid. Painstaking cure is behind every touch—every incident. It's a heart story as well as a graphic one. And because it is so unusual in theme, characterization and production, it will be talked about as one of the sensations of the year. The biography is exceptional, and the acting is genius.
This picture follows "Robin Hood" with Douglas Fairbanks in the feature role and which is drawing thousands to the Roosevelt Theatre all this week. Keeping faith with the public the management inaugurated the new policy under the best auspices when full houses greeted "Robin Hood" on the opening night. The biggest and best features will have their first showing at the Roosevelt from now on and this means a policy which will draw hundreds who

Broadway Accepts Serious Play
On Monday night at the Frazier Theatre Broadway had a chance to pass on the work of the colored artists presenting Oscar Wilde's "Salome" and the verdict will be received with a great sense of satisfaction by colored America as we have at last been accepted in the serious drama.
Conspicuous indeed was the opening of this Ethiopian Art Theatre on Broadway and when it becomes generally known that Mr. Robert Levy, whose splendid work did so much to bring to the fore the Lafayette Players, is at the head of the syndicate presenting those shows in first class houses, the better class of colored people will show their appreciation by going to the Frazier like they went to his uptown home in the days when he controlled the Lafayette.

MONSTER PARADE
The Programme Committee of the four lodges of I. B. P. O. E. of W., Greater New York, plan to give the citizens of Harlem the greatest exhibition ever held by any organization during the week of June 17th to 22d. Aside from the Joint Ball, to be held at the 22d Engineers Regiment, N. G., N. Y., on Thursday, June 21st, preparations are going steadily forward for the street parade to be held during the afternoon of June 21st, at which time the Lodges and Temples expect to show a fraternal membership of five thousand or more, preceded by a mounted police platoon.
The Exalted Rulers have ordered the members to decorate their homes suitably for the occasion, that the parade may live long in the memories of those who participate. Boxes for the ball are going very fast and Chairman Joseph W. Albright states "that he is positive of a complete sell-out." Commencing the week of June 7th, the Chairman of the Publicity Committee will publish a weekly
RAGE JUN
list of boxholders, with names of their guests. Owing to the large number of out-of-town patrons of the ball, it has been decided that a Bureau of Information will be opened for the convenience of the public. This can be done by showing Audubon 5101 or by mailing communications to 2425 Fourth Avenue, where members and friends can get all the information desired from the Chairman of the Publicity Committee, Bri. George J. Fane, of Monarch, No. 414 (Advt.)

West Africans Contented; South Africa Britain's Problem, Says Writer
John H. Harris, student of British colonial affairs, writing on "Britain's Negro Problem" in the Atlantic Monthly for April, declares that Britain's problem is not on the west coast of Africa, but in South Africa. "British West Africa is contented." he says, "first, because the natives own the land; secondly, because there is very little race prejudice; and finally, because considerable effort has been made to meet the demands of the ever-increasing ranks of educated Negroes."
"The color bar" is the major problem of South Africa, and it excites bitterness in three main directions, either of which must, sooner or later, bring South African statesmen either to the very position which confronted Abraham Lincoln, when he made his famous speech in June, 1858. South Africa cannot secure permanent peace while she pursues a racial, economic and political policy, half-slave and half-free."
The cause of the recent rebellion in South Africa was the "color bar," according to Mr. Harris, and the struggle he thinks will go on until South Africa has become wholly slave or wholly free.

Self-government by natives has met with much success in Basutoland, he continues. The major Negro problem, after all, is that of franchise and self-government. Great British prides herself, and not without reason, over the Basutoland experiment. Basutoland is a tiny state—the Swissland of South Africa—measuring only 10,000 square miles and occupied by 40,000 of quite the most virile and advanced natives south of the Equator. The Basutos owe their unique position to their great ruler, the late King Mobesh, easily the greatest statesman that South Africa has produced. Basutoland was annexed by Britain at the request of Mobesh, and stands alone in the fact that it was later disbanded, and is now governed by a native Parliament, or Pitso, guided by English advisers. The Basutoland government levies its own taxes and, in fact, performs all the functions of a modern administration. White men are permitted to visit Basutoland, and, in some cases, to reside within the territory; but none may own land.

(Continued from Page 1). music. It did not lie in the native of the segregated agricultural life of the white pioneers to inspire folksongs; their occupations lacked the romantic and emotional elements which existed in the slave life of the plantations in the South from which sprang these spirituals.' These spirituals are the only considerable body of music in the United States which answers the scientific definition of folksongs. They are original and native products of the slaves. They contain idioms which were transplanted from Africa, but as songs they are the product of the social, political and geographic environment within which their slaves were placed in America; of the influences to which they were subjected in America; of the joys, sorrows, and experiences which fall to their lot in America."
Mr Burleigh also insisted that most of the music now being produced by Nearces tended to perpetuate the faire ideas about the race that were first disseminated by the Christy Minstra. "Negroes," he said, "are capable of producing much more ennobling music."
Others who took part in the very excellent program were: Mrs. Elizabeth Terrell, Mr. Ulysses Flam, Mrs. Murray, Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Tracy and Mr. August Koch. Mr. Clyde W. Jemmott, leader of the forum, acted as chairman.

He just read the letter and then told me that I had lost all my money, but that he

Randall, coworker with Dr. Holmes, speaking last Sunday at the Community Church, 34th Street and Park Avenue, on the "Myth of Anglo-Saxon Superiority," said, after an analysis of the arguments that have been advanced to prove superiority: "Nothing else but egalism makes the whites believe that they are superior to men of other races. If the Negro had economic equality with the white man, there is no doubt that he would equal the white race.
"History repeats itself. Many races that were once up and are now down, and vice versa. If a representative of the now leading Nordic race had told a Roman or a Grecian, when either ruled the world, that he belonged to a superior race, he would have been laughed out of court."

Century Magazine Publishes "Nemesis"
(N. A. A. C. P. Press Service)
The Century Magazine (353
Fourth Avenue, New York City)
for May), publishes a story by
Mary Johnston, entitled "Nomesi-
s," showing the effect upon the
white man in a small southern
town of the burning of a colored
man. After the lynching, hate
flames up in the town. One man
develops pains for which the do-
ctor can find no comedy. Another
comes to hate everybody and
everything. A third, after locking
himself for days in his house,
hangs himself after shooting his
dog.
The story, which shows the
breakdown of fellowship and of
civilization that are the con-
sequence of lynching, is a strong
argument against the lawless release
of passion in mob murder.
ABYSSINIAN BAPTIST
CHURCH

The Passing of a Beautiful Character
Book Chat by MARY WHITE OVINGTON
WHETHER it is my own or the publisher's neglect or whether the Negro is not an immediate theme for literature my book shelf is empty of new volumes to review. I have therefore turned to two small books of verse, each published four years ago, that the Cornhill Company sent to me but that thus far I have not noted. They are "From the Heart of a Folk," by Waverly Carmichael, and "Songs of My People," by Charles Bertram Johnson.

The Passing of a
in death of Mrs. Mary A. Scott, who departed this life Wednesday, April 25th 1923, at 2:30 A.M. New York has lost a historic character. Mrs. Scott was the wife of the late William Scott and daughter of the late Rev. and Mrs. Thos. P. Hunt, having been born in Schoolish Mountains, N. Y., in 1829, and living to the age of 94 years.
In the home to-day, at 2135 Seventh Avenue there is an awed silence. for grandma (as we loved to call her) no longer occupies the chair which became so familiar to us all, and from which she would greet her loved ones and friends with such a happy welcome
During her declining years, though weak in body, Mrs. Scott showed wonderful mental activity, and just a few years past one could find her eagerly reading some comforting fights of her Bible, scanning the newspapers, and discussing their topics with much intelligence, or writing her own letters, not with pencil, but with pen

I imagine neither made much impression upon the public but they interest me, as does all Negro poetry, for what they represent.
I gain from reading the introduction to his verse that Carmichael had little education, but he enters into the heart of the folk amongst whom he grew up, sturdy, simple-hearted colored man and women in Alabama. He tells, usually in dialect, of their daily doings, their play with their children, their excitement at the church service, their love-making. He speaks with the verity of a child. For some reason no one likes to be called a child, despite the scriptural assurance that tells us that unless we become as little children we shall not enter the Kingdom of Heaven. To some extent is this true of the kingdom of art. We must have the directness and veracity of a child if we are to represent reality not imitation.
The second volume, "Bongs of My People," shows from its very title the more sophisticated mind. Negroes are "my people" and the post talks about them reflectively. Still more he speaks of his own spirit yearnings and voices his persistent optimism. The robin that sings in the rain is his favorite bird. His verse is peacefully turned and reflects a bindsy spirit.

Though we loved her and though we miss her, we would not wish her back, for she wanted to go. And falling asleep her spirit took its flight to Heaven. She has tread the door of Darkness through and now reaps her rekard.

Vocational Schools Now Open to Negro Pupils
become a farmer can now receive practical agricultural training in the public schools of his community, says Calvin F. McIntosh, member of the Federal Board for Vocational Education. In fifteen of the seventeen Southern States which maintain separate public schools for Negroes, vocational schools of agriculture have been organized. In these schools, the colored boy is offered intensive training to fit him for all branches of practical farming.
At the close of the fiscal year 1921-22, a total of 165 vocational agricultural schools for Negroes were in operation. This number compares with 133 schools, reported for the previous year. Fupils enrolled in agricultural classes in 1921-22 numbered 4.064. In 1920-21 the enrollment was only 3.243. The increase for the year approximated 25 per cent.
The only limiting factor to the expansion of these schools is the lack of trained Negro vocational teachers, says Mr. McIntosh. To supply teachers, the states are maintaining teacher training schools. Last year 250 prospective vocational teachers were in training in these schools. In 12 of the states further assistance is given to vocational teachers by itinerant teacher trainers who spend part of each year traveling from school to school and adding in the organization of local work.
Negro vocational education is supported by combined Federal, State and local appropriations. Under the Federal Vocational Act, the States receive an annual grant of Federal vocational funds on condition that they match the Federal money dollar for dollar by State and local appropriations. All schools receiving Federal and State money must be public, and must be maintained at approved standards. The instruction in these schools must be of a character to actually fit the graduate pupil to successfully enter the vocation of agriculture.
The cost of such schools is almost completely reimbursed by the yield of farm products of the pupils, in supervised practice work. All agricultural pupils are required to put in six months of each year in practice farming, under school supervision. During the fiscal year 1920-21, farm projects were completed by 2,475 pupils in the colored schools. The total crop yield from such projects was $211,898.08. A new development in the vocational field is the organization of part-time and evening classes, for adult farmers. At the close of the fiscal year 1921-23 there were 64 part-time or evening schools in operation, with an enrollment of 1,035 pupils. Through the part-time and evening schools, vocational training is extended to the great group which is already outside of the public schools.
The Negro vocational schools are conducted directly by the states, with the co-operation of the Federal Board for Vocational Education. H. O. Sargent is the field representative of the Federal Board in this activity.

And He Wonders Why You Say "Please Speak More Distinctly"
YOUVE talked with him over the telephone and you've noticed the tone of surprise in his voice when you say "speak louder." Sometimes he thinks you are hard of hearing or else the connection is poor. The telephone is a wonder-worker, yes, but it cannot overcome failure to use it properly.
It works best when you talk straight into the mouthpiece, with your lips not more than a inch away. Each added inch between your lips and the mouthpiece is the equivalent of adding 120 miles to the distance your voice must travel.
Another suggestion: If you are told to "speak louder," get closer to the mouthpiece, use a full natural tone and take extra care to pronounce each word clearly and distinctly.

Although no more on earth you
Although no more on earth you are.
Yet, Mother dear. I know
You are in Regions blest by far
Than these you're left below.
Then calmly rest O Mother fear,
In the arms of Him you love.
No longer shall I grieve or fear,
For I know you live above!
Her family and friends are
equally affected by the loss they
have sustained in her death, for
not only were her motherly
principles administered to members
of her household but her
genital nature, her affable disposition
and her loving tenderness endared her to the heart of youth and age alike. May she rest in peace!

And everywhere for life is

Since you were called away,
it shall never forget the day you
left me all alone.
It seems that when you went
away, the sunshine left the
home.
I miss your kind and willing
hands, your sweet and
gentle words.
I miss you, and dear Robert.
I miss you, everywhere.

Parents and Sentiment
MENTIMENTALITY plays an important part in our lives. It controls about ninety per cent of our thoughts and actions. It makes us believe we see things that are not and causes us not to believe and see things that are. It permits us to certain virtues upon a pinnacle where no one reaches them and causes us to assign certain man vices to the lowest regions of thought and action.
IT IS IMPORTANT to notice that the grip held by sentiment upon the world, in beginning, break, and men and women are beginning to ask themselves for other actuating causes of women's suffrage, which has proven that "women" would not eradicate all of the world; the recent demands by both men and women to female offenders against the law be punished as male criminals; the nature of the crime committed by women; the entry of girls and women into industry, business and all of the profession; a tendency to prove that women are primarily beings, much like the rest of us.
THE COMING SUNDAY the people in this nation will pause to pay tribute to their mothers and mothers, bad mothers, all mothers, who can only will get around to a Father's Day. Naturally children will ask themselves why their mothers and fathers should be honored. Such action will be casting all sentiment and bible reading aside and will be looked upon by men who are afraid to motherhood and fatherhood, and the question of the commandment to "honor thy father, thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the earth" and raise the question as to whether or not there is excellence, par se, in motherhood.
EVEN though it may seem brazen to broach a question at this time, if it tends to be put a desire on the part of the parent to warn respect of the child, it will serve a new purpose. There are too many mothers and faith in the world today who do not love their child if they do love them, show their love in pearls. Permitting a child to run the streets to stay out of school, to be impolite to the child, to shield it in crime, may please the child the time but it is certainly not calculated to ease the child to honor its parents when it becomes aware. There are too many parents leading in such set had examples for their children. Even in prison for crime, all inmates of the state, every man leading a disgraced life, mind, and every woman leading a life of intolerance is the son or the daughter of other. Who knows but that their predicament actually, at least, the outgrowth of the same heresy and mothers? "All that I am or hope to love to my darling mother" may be taken in hand.
THE CHILD is indebted to the parent and parent is indebted to the child, and since the parent does the child into the world the greater responsibility rests with the parent.
FLORIDA Suffers a Change of Heart
THE TROPICAL State of Florida has decided to not yet and ready to do away with the waging of prisoners in her convict cause. Immediately the exposure of the brutal and fatal death of Martin Talbert, one would have thought it regardless to what had happened in the past. State would face the future with a clear conscience and with a determination to pass such would make the repetition of such an incident almost impossible.
PUT FLORIDA suffered a change of heart. The intentions were good but she had traveled to Hall so long she found it impossible to come from it. The investigation went along until she began to think of her colored girl. Then hang! She throw her reputation wind and like a drunken harlot returned to the infamy and disgrace.
THE STATE of Florida is not alone in her profession of Justice. Most of the Southern State is placed in the same category. They have diagrams themselves that treat their fellow human beings. Need one have a better plot condition in Florida than the one pottered pottery of one of her special officers would his receiver in Jacksonville in order to fulfillhes to testify.
SENTIMENTALITY plays an important part in all of our lives. It controls about ninety per cent of our thoughts and actions. It makes us believe and see things that are not and causes us not to believe and see things that are. It permits us to set certain virtues upon a pinnacle where no one can reach them and causes us to assign certain human vices to the lowest regions of thought and action.
IT IS IMPORTANT to notice that the grip so long held by sentiment upon the world, is beginning to break, and men and women are beginning to look about themselves for other actuating causes. Woman's suffrage, which has proven that "notes for women" would not eradicate all of the world'sills; the recent demands by both men and women that female offenders against the law be punished came as male criminals; the nature of the crimes committed by women; the entry of girls and women into industry, business and all of the professions, had a tendency to prove that women are primarily burdened, much like the rest of us.
THIS COMING SUNDAY the living people in the Nation will pause to pay tribute to their mothers; good mothers, bad mothers, all mothers, who have sons and daughters will be honored on that day. then we will get around to a Father's Day, and eventually children will ask themselves why all mothers and fathers should be honored. Such a question will be casting all sentiment and biblical training aside and will be looked upon by many as an affront to motherhood and fatherhood, and a violation of the commandment to "honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the earth," and raise the question as to whether or not there is excellence, or so, in motherhood.
EVEN THOUGH it may seem brazen to broach such a question at this time, if it tends to bring about a desire on the part of the parent to warrant the respect of the child, it will serve a useful purpose. There are too many mothers and fathers in the world today who do not love their children or, if they do love them, show their love in peculiar ways. Permitting a child to run the streets at night, to stay out of school, to be impolite to its children, to shield it in crime, may please the child at the time but it is certainly not calculated to cause the child to honor its parents when it becomes of age. There are too many parents leading lives which set bad examples for their children. Every man in prison for crime, all inmates of insane sayma, every man leading a disgraceful life of any kind, and every woman leading a life of latency and disgrace is the son or the daughter of a mother. Who knows but that their predicament is partially, at least, the outgrowth of the aims of fathers and mothers? "All that I am or hope to be. I owe to my darling mother" may be taken in two ways.
THE CHILD is indebted to the parent and the parent is indebted to the child, and since the parent precedes the child into the world the greater responsibility rests with the parent.
Florida Suffers a Change of Heart
THE TROPICAL State of Florida has decided that it is not yet ready to do away with the brutal whipping of prisoners in her convict camp. Immediately after the exposure of the brutal and fatal slugging to death of Martin Talbert, one would have thought that regrettions to what had happened in the past, the State would face the future with a clearer conscience and with a determination to pass have which would make the repetition of such an ugly incident almost impossible.
BUT FLORIDA suffered a change of heart. Her intentions were good but she had travelled the road to Hell so long she found it impossible to turn off from it. The investigation went along pretty well until she began to think of her colored prisoner. Then hang! She shed her reputation to the wind and like a drunken harlot returned to a life of infamy and disgrace.
THE STATE of Florida is not alone in her pronunciation of Justice. Most of the Southern States may be placed in the same category. They would rather disagree themselves than treat their followers as human beings. Need one have a better picture of condition in Florida than the one potrayed in the justification of one of her special officers who burgled his retainer in Jacksonville in order to go to Tennessee to testify.
He said:
"I didn't want to see Eberhard Jones bus-ished alone, when Judge Willis was just to
bad. I've seen Judge Willis drunk on two occasions, once, about Christmas when he talked as though he had two knots in his tongue, and again on the night of March 2, when he sat in his office about two hours making goo-goo eyes banging the table with his fist and wagging when he tried to walk.
The Mullen-Gage Law
IN THE REPEAL of the Mullen-Gage act, designating our State lawmakers to enforce the Volunteer National Prohibition act, the wets in this state have scored a victory. The repeal of this measure does not mean that residents may openly imbake, wine and beer. We say openly imbake is an open secret that the state and particularly New York City, and especially Harlem, is well equipped with bad and worse harleycorn. Then, the Prohibition Amendment is still a part of the constitution of the United States.
WE ARE NOT now or have we ever been aware of prohibition. There is something about which seems to unnecessarily take away the risk of the individual. Nor, are we in favor of the gas because it at all times had a tendency to graduate into common dive where crimes of all kinds were bred.
HOWEVER, WE cannot help but view the repeal of the Mullen-Gage act as a step backward we will consider the conditions which brought about this. Chief among these conditions, is the knowledge admission that it is impossible to force the law, and that it had a tendency to corpse the police powers of the state. We do not believe that honest public servants are so easily corrupt, we would rather believe that the enforcement is served to demonstrate just how corrupt the police powers of the state are. No sensible person doubt for one minute but that there are and officers of the law in the state to enforce the measure. If the law worked too great a hardness on the citizens of the state, they could have passed from the statute books.

"Signs Of the Times"
THREE WRITERS, Major Robert R. Moton, W. DuBois and Lester A. Walton, special report the World, have contributed articles dealt with the migration of the Negro from the 80 North. Writing in to-days issue of the Magazine, Dr. DuBois, under the heading, "at of Black Labor" says:
We may envoy four hosts who must deal with them—the planner, the manufacturer, the union laborer, and the Northern Negro. The planner inherits a tradition from which he seldom escapes. The tradition regards the Negro laborer as a serf, without a vote, with little education, low wages, and medieval conditions of work. The manufacturer, North and South, has as his ideal a surplus of common labor, whether black or white, which will keep wages low by severe competition and periodic unemployment. He proposes so to restrict and monopolize skilled labor to compel the employer to grant a living wage. These three hosts are pretty well known; but there is a fourth who is not so often thought of. He is the Northern Negro, the representative of the 1,735,141 Negroes established in the North either a generation or more ago or by more recent migration, who have, except in the case of the newest comer, found an industrial place and a racial philosophy and who are the first to be affected by a widespread migration from the South.
THREE WRITERS, Major Robert R. Motton, W. E. B. DuBois and Leater A. Walton, special reporter on the World, have contributed articles dealing with the migration of the Negro from the South to the North. Writing in to-day issue of the Nation Magazine. Dr. DuBois, under the heading, "The Host of Black Labor" says:
We may envisage four hosts who must deal with them the plantar, the manufacturer, the union laborer, and the Northern Negro. The planter inherits a tradition from which he seldom escapes. The tradition regards the Negro laborer as a serf, without a vote, with little education, low wage, and little conditions of work. The manufacturer, North, has his ideal a surplus of common labor, whether black or white, which will keep wages low by severe competition and periodic unemployment.

These three hosts are pretty well known; but there is a fourth who is not so often thought of. He is the Northern Negro, the representative of the 1,725,141 Negro established in the North either a generation or more ago, by whom he has, except in the case of the newest camera, found an industrial place and a racial philosophy and who are the first to be affected by a widespread migration from the south.
The Nothern Negro, therefore, faces a similar dilemma. He knows that his Southern brother will and must migrate just as he himself migrated either in this generation or the last. He feels more or less acutely his own duty to help the newcomer, and the Negro churches and charities of great cities like Chicago and New York have done a marvelous work in this direction even though it has fallen far below the need. But on the other hand, the black Northerner knows what this migration costs. In the years past, the Negro has been average of a race riot in the United States every year, half of them in the South and half in the North. Serious encounters have been threatened in a half dozen Northern and several Southern centers. In these same years, 1.663 Negroes have been lynched; since the war thirty-four Negroes have been burned alive at the stake. In other words, the race war is not simply a future possibility—it is here.
DR. DUBOIS concludes his article with the assertion that the South must reform its attitude toward the Negro and that the North must reform its attitude toward common labor.

A calm investigation both of causes and results will disclose this fact: that the migration of Negroes to the North has undoubtedly produced beneficial results to the North, to the South and to the Negro himself in spite of whatever conflict or confusion has been incident to the requirements made necessary by the movement. It has not been without reason that the Negro, which must inevitably attend to large a movement under such varied circumstances; but it is safe to say that the problem of the Negro in the North does not begin to be as serious in this section as the problem of the foreign born emigrant and the non-English speaking elements of Northern population. From all reports the Negro has proved himself as capable, as dependable and as fractable a labor element in the North so he has been in the South and as efficient as the foreigner he has replied. His development has been that of the nation's population, and perhaps a little purer than some. He is not unresponsive to the larger opportunities that are accorded him in the North.
THE ARTICLE of Lestat Walton which is more in the nature of a special report, states that the small farm "cropper system" is the primary cause of emergency and unrest and that empty stomachs rather than crowded Jim Crow cars have been the chief motive impelling thousands to move to Nothern industrial centers.
READ THIS FIRST
John Walton, an aspiring Negro lad from a Southern village, wins a scholarship at a Northern university. Here, he encounters Philip Brockenridge, son of a rich man from the same place. John, being very poor, secures work with Prof. Bruce and one night while in the Bruce home he overhears a mysterious conversation between Mrs. Bruce and a strange man. There is a contest at the university in which John and Philip are the leading competitors, and an intimate friend of Philip, Gaston Leigh, suggests that he offer John a certain sum to凑够. John also meets Lucile Page, a girl at the university. Both girls first sight and are very happy until one evening John sees her in an automobile sitting beside Gaston Leigh. Philip admires the girl and asks Gaston Leigh about her.
Now go on with the story
Fifth Installment
SO, YOU don't believe me about the girl," said Gaston, gazing absently meanwhile at the dim outlines of the houses. "The Nigger lives at the Stewarts', doesn't he?"
"Yes, the house on the left nearest the lamp-post.
Gaston drew up on the other side of the street.
"He's in there now," said Philip.
Gaston continued, as he dismounted and closed the door of the car: "As I was saying about the girl, I was at the Gordons' and Betty wanted a hair-dresser to fix her up in a hurry, so she begged me to call at the beauty parlor and bring her up."
"Oh," exclaimed Philip. "Get in touch with her again and let me meet her. I might have better luck." He added as Gaston started off:
"Give him the fifteen hundred, if necessary."
"You leave it to me."
The last two weeks had been wretched ones for John. He had written Lucille a stinging letter that same night on which he had seen her in the car with Leigh. Crazed with jealousy he had torn his picture into shreds and destroyed all of her letters. But in vain. Try as he would he could not tear her memory from his heart. On one point, however, he was inflexible: her offense was unforgivable. But for the first time he would have left Nortonville at once even though it meant the forfeiture of his scholarship. He was through with women forever. Hereafter he would devote his life entirely to his mother.
"Beg pardon," said John, beaming with gratitude, "it sit down."
"I know how it is, Walton," began the other appassionately "I've a girl myself, I'll tell you this much. She's true blue. I tried to be friendly with her but she wouldn't even look at me. She's a splendid girl and pretty as a picture, too. You're lucky."
Ligh went on unctiously: "What I came to see you about is this. You are one of the eligibles for the Stanton Prize, aren't you?" "I think so."
"And you stand to win as you have the highest average?" "That's no proof I'll win though I'm trying hard."
At Geston Leigh's knock he went to the door half fearing, half hoping that it was Lucille who in despair had come to seek his pardon. Rapidly he ran over in his mind what he was going to say to her. He was going to show her that he was one Negro who would not tolerate such conduct on the part of a woman of his race.
"Now," continued Leigh, "for a certain reason—well, I'll be trank with you and tell you—certain fellows in my frat have picked someone else to win and we don't want to lose. They have asked me to call on you and put the matter up to "Race prejudice" enclaimed John to himself. "They don't want to take the chance of a Negro's winning." He waited for the other to continue.
When he threw the door open haughtily and saw the masculine figure looming against the darkness he embraced a shiver of disapointment.
"We'll make it worth your while."
"I'll have some glo to tell Luille," thought John remaining silent.
Inside under the light, when he recognised Leigh he boiled with rage. He felt like springing at his throat, but calming himself with great effort he waited for him to speak.
"We'll give you five hundred,
continued Leigh, brazenly.
"Till we pay the cash here to-morrow
morning as soon as the bank
opens."
"Walton," he began, nervously. "I've come to see you on a delicate mission—a friend of mine—" Had Lucille sent him to explain? John could contain himself no longer. He cut him short: "Leigh's he said advancing threatens safely, but I don't know. You'd never dream of marrying her. Not a word! Not a word! I'm through with her."
"Who are the gentlemen I'm being asked to obligate?" parried John. "That I can't tell you. In handing over the money I must stipulate that you keep the matter a seville that you leave Nortonville not later than the evening before the examination the next day. Until turn until midnight the next day." "How many fellows do you represent?"
Leigh gazeed at him stupefied. "With her? What're you talking about anyway?" Firmly convinced that the other had come to gloss over his conduct with Lacille he was unable to contain his anger any longer. He sprang violently at Leigh throat and began chaking Lacille. "What the devil is the matter with you, Woolf? Are you great?"
"About twenty or thirty."
"Well," said John, dryly, putting on his coat, "tender them my compliments. See that they, suggest they invest their sympathy in hay. They need it." He started to leave.
"I'll make it a thousand, Val
too."
"Pardon me, I must go."
"I'll give you the full fifteen hundred plus fifty for the medal. That's a generous offer."
"Do you think you can come between me and my girl, and get away like that?"
One thousand five hundred and
sixty dollars! John hesitated. That
was too much. He ever
dreamed of owning. What couldn't
be do with so large a sum.
"Your girl! I explained Leigh indiscreant, "I don't-"
Seeing that there was a misunderstanding somewhere the latter said cooly:
"Take it," commanded a voice,
and marry Lacelle right away
Anwalt your winning. Your win
your day of the examination.
"Come on, Waltie. let's hear
what's on your chest, split it out."
"I saw you out with the girl I'm
going to meet the Thursday
songed up of myself."
What! demanded another voice
sternly, "are you going to lay
there? There something, bigger
than that. There is the honor of your race.
No you simply mustn't do this.
You must go in and win."
Leigh burst into loud laughter: "Oh. that's what you're so sorry about! He! Him! That's a good one. So that's your girl! Yogo poor dawl!" Get out! Get out! yelled John, "or we'll throw you out!" He his arm. He was itching to have the other in double, but decided he would have to explain. He said in a matter of fact same:
Leigh saw his hostitation and added: "I'll have the cash for you to marrow at botany, timelike." "No," stammered John. Leigh continued to push as his argument continued to palpate. "Think it over and let me know to marrow," Leigh said as he left. "What luck" demanded Philia.
"I was taking her over to one of her customers, who begged me to fetch her, you poor step."
"You're lying" Beshed John, angrily.
"Well you go 'ak at the Cowboys
Road. That's
where I took you."
"I had to offer him the fifteenth."
"He took it, ok?"
"He as good as took it. He's to let me show to-morrow. Have no fear. Niggers have no high ideals of the moral values of things. I know them so well. You can depend upon him to fall when I show him the kale to-morrow."
As the apparent truth snake home a ware of remorse, swept over John. How unjust and cruel he had been! "The poor girl," the poor girl," he marmured, noting his hat and coat he started for the doctor. "Just a mastic Walton," demeaned Leigh. "I came to see you in another little matter when you lost your head."
John tare out to find Lecilia, his brain a maze of whirling emotions. He run all the way to the town and
aft ydollars! John hesitated. That store.
"She's not here," said a voice.
"Is she at the Montgomerys?" "Maybe. She left an hour ago."
He headed for the Montgomerys. He intended making the humblest apology one could ever make. How never, how cruel he had been: Never, how equal he would he doubt her. Why had he been so hasty, he chided himself.
He arrived at the Montgomerys and bounded up the steps. "Is she—in Luclie in?" he asked, breathlessly.
"Well, Mr. Walton, where have you been? What have you been doing to Luclie?" asked Mrs. Montgomery in concern.
"Did she say anything?" he demanded anxiously, as he entered saw a feminine figure quickly distracted a room.
"No, but I found something's wrong. What is there between you? Luclie, Mr. Walton's here. Take a seat. I'll see her."
He heard a murmur of feminine voices within. After a wait of several minutes—minutes that seemed utterter-Mrs. Montgomery emerged alone. "She begs to be excused. She says she isn't feeling well," said Mrs. Montgomery. "Tell her it's very important. I won't detain her a minute," pleaded John. Mrs. Montgomery went in and retreated. "It's no use, Mr. Walton. She seems a bit for you good and proper. Your kids now and see her again to-morrow." Torn with remorse and the fear that he had lost her forever, he stumbled a wounded man to the drug store. Here he procured paper and penned her a piteous apology.
CHAPTER XIV
When John awoke the next morning the world seemed much brighter. After his confession and explanation of the night before he felt sure that Lucille would accept his apology. The question now be his strange encounter with Leigh. He felt the latter would approach him again. What should he say to him. He debated the matter with himself as he swept off the porch of the Bruces.
Prof. Bruce came out for the morning paper.
"Well, Walton," he said, "there's quite some talk about you and the Statsman." "Yes, the race between you and Mr. Breckenridge is the talk of the town." added Mrs. Bruce, through the slightly opened screen door. "You and he are from the same place, aren't you?"
"Yes." John replied.
When Gatson Leigh approached him after classes, John promptly refused the offer.
Philip had been anxiously hovering in the distance, "What did he say?" he asked, as Leigh came up.
He talked like a white man. Said that he felt there was some higher principle involved, or some such roi', said Leigh, disgustedly.
"Yes, and you felt so cocksaure about it!" accused Philip.
"Oh, he's only holding out for higher money."
"That it," snapped Philip, "he's holding out for more money. You made a mess of it with your bigger proposition. If you had done the value of the plus a few hundred for the pretty it would then showed him how easy it would be to get the money without any further grind. I bet he'd have agreed. You have made a mess of it, and after that affair last night I am all in today."
"I'll try him again, Paul. I'll have better luck this time." As I told you, that affair about that nugger girl took me off my edge." No. Gasonation. you're made a mess of. I'm going to see him himself. I don't see so much now whether I win the prize or not, so long as he doesn't."
Back at home, John inquired eagerly if a letter or telephone call had come for him. Neither had come. He called up Lucille at the beauty parlor, and after much polling and persuasion she gave relational summaries to meet him later in the evening. He plucked that he wanted indispensable advice.
Two nights later she met him, and as they walked along the leafy avenue by moonlight he be pleased for forgiveness. "I've seen so many of the finest and prettiest of the girls of our race mistress of white men in the South—some times they go, because their parents, are threatened with death, of their own will—that when you enter that car I thought but one thing. I shall never doubt you again. dearest." She was silent. /
"One thing the separation has brought to me: more clearly, than ever is how much I love you, how impossible it is for me to go along without you, I have suffered the tortures of the damned, Lucille."
"You deserved it!" she said, coldly.
"My was great, love for you that made me do it." Won't you forgive me, deserves?
"I cannot, after such a letter, What was it you said you had to tell me?"
"It was first of all," he am-

The Peril Of Venereal Disease
FROM time immemorial venereal diseases have been prevalent. Human passion is in constant conflict with the will, and in most cases passion and sex desire overcome one's better self. It is therefore necessary to have the knowledge of certain ill effects which result, when we allow passion to master our will.
There are certain forms of venereal disease which are local, in which the venereal poison or germ does not enter the blood; the inflammation in this form is noticed at some point of the skin. There is another form in which the poison enters the blood stream and circulates to distant and innermost parts of the body. Thus the poison is present but is not noticeable. The person so affected goes on, not knowing the danger which lurks in his system.
This form of veneral disease is known as syphilis. It is the scourge of modern civilization. The poison remains in the blood five, ten, fifteen or twenty years before it begins to manifest itself in certain symptoms, such as falling hair, ulcers, chronic tonsillitis, chronic dyspepsia with nausea, inflammation, neuritis, paralysis, and insanity. In fact, the germ of syphilis may invade every tissue, producing the inflammation of that organ. The sad part about it is the fact that during the early years of the disease its presence in the blood may not be known, and then at some later time it breaks out with the fury of a volcano. This disease is transferable from one person to many. An innocent wife has been infected, unknowingly, by her husband, thus giving the disease to the one he has promised to protect
swered, and then he went to tell her of the attempt to buy him off. white men in the South—sometime She flaimed in anger. "And what did you say?" she asked. "I told him to take his money and go to a warm place." "The dirty hounds!" she said. "Do they think a Negro has no honor—that we do not know how to put duty above money, that we have not as fine sensibilities as they? I like their nerve." She squeezed his hand in token of forgiveness. Later she added: "John, I missed you so." "I am so happy to be with you again, dearest," he said tenderly. "You are going to win, aren't you John?" "I am going to win for you, Luclie."
CHAPTER XV.
John devoted himself to his studious more earnestly than ever. A few nights he heard a knock at his door and on opening it saw Philip Breckerdidge. Much surprised, he invaded him in. "Grinding away, I see," said Philip, unceasing, glancing at the book-strawn table. "I flat," said John, cheerily.
"John," said Philip, nervously peeling off his gloves. "I want to ask you a great favor." John instinctively felt the erand. It flashed through his mind that Gatton Leigh had inadvertently spoken of "a friend." John replied:
"If I can help you, I will."
"The Stanton prize," stammered John.
"Father, mother and the girl I'm to marry are, expecting me to win it—"
He hesitated a moment and pulled out a check book:
"I'll give you two thousand dollars to be absent the day of the examination," he said.
"I have parents and a sweetheart, too," replied John steadily.
"Come on; be a good fellow. I'll make it two thousand five hundred. That's a thousand more than you'd get if you won the prize. You need the money. I need the gift." John thought ruefully of the 55 cents in his pocket—his sole wealth.
"I can't, Phil. I'm sorry," he mumbled.
Philip wrote in his checkbook, and, tearing off the bit of paper, said: "See, I've made it three thousand." "No, no," gazped John, desperately. "Perhaps you want more," continued Philip, tearing up the check and preparing to write another. "Four thousand, then. Remember, you might not win the prize."
Four thousand dollars! Four thousand dollars! John felt his head swim.
"N-no," he stammered, with assumed defiance.
"五 thousand!" said Philip grimly. "I shan't go; any higher. You'd be a d—d feel not to take it. Think of the chances you're taking."
John began to reason desperately.
Five thousand dollars! With that we could buy a home, mary Louise, and continue his studies free from all interruption. No more sweeping sidewalks or tending fences. Up the other hand, what? Poverty and the chances of winning. "You might lose, anyhow," the voice, "and your race would be no better off. Besides, what does the race care about you for a while and soon forget you. You are other chances to win other prizes next year. Take this said you'll be in a better position to win them."
"No," said the other voice; "there's the principle of the idea: there's less than a million dollars."
nal diseases I have been prevalent, conflict with the will, and in most overcome one's better self. It is therege of certain ill effects which result, our will,
anearnal disease which are local, in does not enter the blood; the inimane point of the skin. There is anerule the blood stream, to body. Thus the poison is present to affected goes on, not knowing the and cherish. When the wife becomes infected with the malady, the germ enters the blood of future children born to her.
And thus, the poison enters into the social fabric of our home life, doctors are forewarned of the body for the disease and take Wasserman tests frequently. In no other way may one be sure of the absence or presence of the disease.
Young men should be warned by their fathers during the years of their early manhood of the ill effects of this social malady. Mothers should instruct their daughters, as they begin to bloom into womanhood, of the dangers of this disease. Sex instructions by particularly can prevent many a pitfall. Religion; science, and the absolute knowledge of the dangers of this disease are the only means to assist the will in its conflict with passion.
May down. No matter whether the members of your race appreciate it or not, you must be incorruptible. Besides, you'll have to lie about it. You'll have to lie to Lucille, to your mother, to your classmates. You're the only Negro in your class and you must hold the standard of your people. You'll have to respect yourself if you sell out."
And so the battle raged within him, now winning on this side, now on that.
"Come on, what's your answer," said Philip, holding out the check for five thousand dollars.
