GARVEY GETS BAIL 12 PAGES Complete in Two Sections 3c. IN GREATER NEW YORK ELSEWHERE 5c THE WEEKLY NEWS ODESSA'S HAT SALON, located at 2293 Seventh Ave., will have its formal reopening Saturday. Major La Guardia Says Harlem Should Elect Negro Congressman Former President of Board of Aldermen Addresses Appomattox Republican Club Addressing a meeting of the Appomattox Republican Club last Thursday Congressman F. A. La Guardia, former President of the Board of Aldermen, gave it as his opinion that Negroes of Harlem are strong enough to elect one of their own race to Congress if they will unite their voting strength at the polls. The fighting politician also said that this would be a great event in his life. VOL. XVII. NO. 37 ODESSA'S HAT SALON, loc will have its formal War Declared on Landlords At a meeting held in the home of Mr. and Mru. Lorenzo Florex, 101 West 136th Street, war was declared on gouging landjords in the Harlem district, both white and colored, the latter of which are worse than the former.

The fj this would be a great event in "I am not a drinking man," he continued, "but the day a Negro takes his seat in Congress alongside a Southern Democrat I am trying on a spree for a month." Speaking of women in politics Mr. La Guardia stated that they should not listen to the whisperings of the political bosses to go slow, but to take an active interest in all political matters. "The homewife," he said, "who tries to make both ends meet in a scanty pocketbook, performs a greater financial feat than the secretary of the United States Treasury." Major La Guardia predicted that it would be fatal to any party to dodge, soft pedal or avoid coming out squarely for the continuation of the present Emergency Rent Relief Law and making such laws applicable to tax exempt apartment houses. "There is nothing more important before the voter," he said, "than assurance to 50 per cent of the residents of this state that than are the white landlords, with the possible exception of 'absentee landlords.' Children are underfed, many mothers in poor health are forced to go to work, and misery and squalor prevail—all because of the exorbitant rents now being collected." It is further charged that storekeepers have been ousted from their rented premises to make room for bootleggers and gamblers. The following officers were elected: Mrs. Ricks, pres.; Mrs. Mitchel, vice-pres.; Mrs. Wilson, 2d vice-pres.; Mrs. Daniela, treas.; Miss H. Thornton, sec.; Mrs. Jackson, asst. sec.; Mrs. Peters, chaplain, and Mrs. Flores, organizer.

Tenants did not realize what that meant. They are now commencing to suffer unreasonable demands for increased rents. "The real question is not political. It is purely and simply an economic problem brought about by changed conditions. "The question is political in the sense that it spells disaster for all who dodge it. The time has passed and gone forever when God's sunshine and air can be doled out to a few favored individuals as political patronage for the purpose of exhorting the masses." Major Lei Guarda taught near direct primaries and state central of water power. THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News USES WHIP ON HUBBY WOMAN DIES IN FIRE Mrs. Anna Lynch, age 35 years, was burned to death in a fire at 322 West 54th street, Sunday night, at which address she operated a small store.

It is believed that entering his home under the influence of liquor he either fell or jumped out of the fifth floor window. Man Believed to Have Had Number Slips in His Hand Resists Arrest and Is Shot Down Supposedly in an attempt to break up number playing in Harlem, Inspector Thomas McDonald sent Detectives Frank Ertola and Arthur Cruise to this part of the city in a Police Department automobile to round such players up last Saturday. Arriving at Eighth avenue and 137th street, the two detectives saw Joseph Williams, of 229 Woolf 141st street, handing out what they surmised were policy alice. With no further hostility Detective Ertola approached the man and placed him under arrest. Williams, so the detective claims, restated arrest and knocked him down and kicked him. Meanwhile, Detective Cruise who was waiting in the car a li- (Continued on Page 2) NEW YORK, N. Y., WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 12, 1923 Miss Bertha Deaverney, 137 West 141st Street, arrested last week on a charge of complicity in the alleged burglaries of Harry and William Moor of the same address, was honorably acquitted of the charge Saturday before a justice of the peace. Miss Deaverney is a faithful member of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, located in West 136th Street, and it, was through the efforts of the pastor, Rev. Brown, that she was acquitted. Harry Moor, who, with his brother, is held in $20,000 bail, is charged with burglary and violation of the Sullivan law. William is charged with receiving and disposing of stolen goods. Harry Moor was arrested on August 31 last and is alleged to have admitted burglaring the home of Richard Lee, No. 4545 Boston Road, Pelham Manor, where it is alleged he stole jewelry valued at $2,800. After investigation the police of Pelham Manor went to the 141st Street address, where it is alleged they recovered the loot of a number of robberies in Westchester County. William Moor was placed under arrest, as was Miss Deaverney. Miss Deaverney denied any knowledge of the burglars and denied that she had received any of the loot. According to the police, Harry Moor is alleged to have said that he had been operating in Wexchester County since last December. Dr. H. O.

HACKENSACK ESTABLISHES JIM-CROW Young Colored Woman Appointed to Teach Class of Negroes Only When Klan Objects The Hackensack Board of Education, through its supervising principal, William A. Smith, dishonorably discharged its duty last week when it appointed Miss Nellie Morrow, a newly appointed teacher, to take charge of a backward class of colored children, because of the objection of white residents of the town to her teaching white children. Miss Morrow, who passed the regular examinations required by the Board of Education, will teach in the State Street School. It is understood that petitioned, signed by 1,500 parents, were to have been presented to the Board Monday objecting to Miss Morrow's appointment. Active also in preventing her appointment was the local Klan. It is believed that she is the first colored teacher to qualify. Her appointment could not have prevented without a violation of the law. For this reason the prejudiced Board of Education sought to stay "within the law" and satisfy the Klan. What action will be taken when the name of another colored teacher is reached was not stated.

Dies HORSEWHIPS WOMAN AND HUSBAND Unannounced Mrs. Adelena Brown Surprises Husband and Mrs. Mae B. Lundy in 142nd Street Room, Divorce Papers State. Armed with a cowhide horse-whip, Mrs. Adelena Brown, an active church worker, living at 248 West 133rd street, invaded an apartment at 102 West 142nd street and lashed Mrs. Mae B. Lundy. 144 West 130th street, whom she found in the room with her husband, Frank Brown, who lives at 50 West 129th street. Mrs. Brown was accompanied by detectives from a well-known Harlem agency. Not satisfied with whipping the woman she found with her husband, Mrs. Brown is understood to have lashed her husband. In addition she took away all of his clothing, including his shoes, hat, pawn tickets, suit cases, etc. What he had on when he ran out of the room was not stated. Mrs. Brown stated that she had trouble with Mrs. Lundy on account of her husband, on and off for over three years, and on several occasions went to her house and warned her, but to no effect. About three weeks ago, she says, both her husband and Mrs. Lundy dropped out of sight, leaving no trace of their whereabouts. She called to her assistance detectives from the Boalim agency, and on September 6, according to both the detectives and Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Lundy and her husband were found in the same room asleep at the 142d street address. Mrs. Brown is employed at the Army Base. Mrs. Brown, it is understood, has entered suit for absolute divorce through her attorney, Herman Hoffman, with offices in the Woolworth Building. ALLEGED FAKE DOCTORS FINED Erlin Sealo, 224 West 131st street, and Milton Moore, 255 West 131st street, who had been charged with performing a criminal operation on Mrs. White, 226 West 131st street, and with practising medicine without a license, were freed in the Washington Heights Court on Friday. Magistrate Frothingham ruled that the evidence was insufficient to prove that either of the men had performed the operation. Both men were skillfully defended by Attorney Vernal J. Williams, 145 West 45th street. Mrs. White spent several weeks in the Harlem Hospital following the operation. It was reported at first that she was not expected to live, which caused the defenders to be held without bail. On more favorable reports as to her condition ball was finally placed at $2,000.

When bail was signed by Judge Manton on August 31 the services of the Fidelity Deposit Co. were first enlisted. This company demanded $10,000 cash and the remainder in securities. Liberty Hall was offered, it is said, but on reading the charter it was discovered that the property belongs to the U. N. I. A. and could not be used as security for any individual. The Rev. W. W.

Further Reduction Possible The bonds were first held at $50,000 by Judge Manton, but was later reduced to the sum $10,000. The counsel George Gordon Battle, is making a further attempt to reduce it to $15,000. Garvey was sentenced last June five years in the penitentiary at Atlanta, and to pay a fine of $1,000 and the cost of the trial for using the mails to promote the Black Star Line, an alleged fraudulent concern. Ball was refused at request of Assistant District Attorney N. Mattuck, who told Judge Mack that he had evidence to prove that Garvey's followers were arming themselves. The stockholders of the Black Star Line nearly $1,000,000. Government accountants examining the books of the corporation found the total assets were $31.42 in cash and less than $250,000 in worthless investments. One of the strongest facts-mitating against Garrey was his own admission that on the night before he left for the West Indies-February 22, 1921—in a speech at Liberty Hall, later published in the Negro World, he declared that the Black Star Line had $750,000 of realizable assets capable of paying dividends of 10, 20 and 40 per cent. At that time his ships were wrecks; the books showed a debt of some $200,000, and a bank balance of less than $6,000. Upon this misrepresentation stock was being offered for sale. The appeals he heard in the United States Circuit Court of Appeals some time within the next two months, it is expected. Whether he gets balls or not Garrey may not appear in Harlem this week as it is rumored that should he be released during the week he will leave the city to appear at Liberty Hall on Sunday when a dollar admission will be charged.

Ertola then drew his revolver and shot Williams in the abdomen, and he is now in the Harlem Hospital in a very serious condition. A crowd quickly collected and some one telephoned to the station house that a policeman was killed. Four detectives were sent to the rescue in an automobile. The re-enforcements had to draw their pistols before they could get through the crowd. Then came Struck in Caharet. During a fight in a caharet at 575 Lenox avenue, George Monroe, 30, 78 West 134th street, was struck on the head with a bottle. His condition is not serious. In the Courts Franklin Carnoy, 20, 205 West 140th street, was held in $2,500 ball charged with being a fugitive from justice. He is wanted by the New Jersey police for alleged theft of clothing and jewelry, valued at $250 from Thomas F. Henderson, Highland Park. N. J. Carnoy was released from the penitentiary last month. The arrest was made by Detective-Sergeant Wesley Redding. Corinne Smith, 19, 105 West 183th street, was held in $1,100 ball charged with levelling a revolver at William Fowler, 128 West 139th street, an usher at the New Douglas Theatre on Saturday night. The defendant, it is alleged, threatened to shoot Fowler when he ordered her to behave during the show. She is also held under the Sullivan Law. Kelly Cummings, 61 West 99th street, was held in $300 ball for a further hearing charged with running a dance hall without a license.

Williams and Ertola were taken to the Harlem Hospital. The latter is suffering from internal injuries. Williams is said to be in a serious condition. The latter has been charged with felonious assault and the possession of policy slips. In view of the fact that these so-called number players are invariably discharged when arraigned in court, it is not known why the Police Department is so vigilant in making arrests. In the crowd which gathered after the shooting a man was heard to state that if the police would let the number players alone and would round up the thieves and robbers operating in Harlem, they would be doing something worth while. At the same time, it is charged that these arrests are not made with a view of securing convictions, but of extorting graft. The following were charged with policy playing last week and held in bonds of $500 to $1,000, either for General Sessions or for a further hearing: Thomas Maynard, 43. porter, 49.

And on this matter of demands for rights and protests. Bishop W. T. Vernon of the A. M. K. Church sounded the sense of the 1,800 who jammed the church for the opening reception when he said: "Not protest? Why, liberty is the child of protest." Without question the high water mark of the conference was the great mass meeting Sunday afternoon, September 2, in Kansas City's (Mo.), monaster convention hall, where 10,000 colored people gathered to hear the story of the Arkansas riot cases. Preceding the meeting a silent parade of protest against mob violence, distranchement and Jim Crowism was held. It was in the meeting that followed, however, in the hall, with its tiers and tiers of black faces, with its white-garbled chorus of 200 trained voices and its double row of dignitaries on the platform—here it was that thousands upon thousands of Kansas Citians, delegates and visitors were stirred to white hot enthusiasm by the drama that was enacted on the platform. For drama it was, with a prologue, a clash of opposing forces, a let down just before the end, and then a climax that brought thousands to their feet shouting and cheering. There on that wide platform the doctrine of Tuskegee again met the doctrine of DuBois. Governor Hyde of Missouri was forced to send a substitute because he had an appointment with President Coolidge the next day in Washington. The substitute, W. B. Brown, created a furore when he used the word "darky" before he had been on his feet one minute. Bishop John Hurst halted him sharply, handclapping prevented him from either apologizing or proceeding with his speech for five or six minutes. The crowd seemed determined to dap the speaker down, Chairman Arthur B. Spingarn and Secretary Johnson had to plead with the people to allow the speaker to go on. The speaker read a letter from Governor Hyde using "devotion to fundamental institutions," industry, thrift, individual achievement rather than the pursuit of so-called equality." Then, as the later afternoon sun streamed through the windows of the convention hall, James Weldon Johnson arose and carried the conference to its peak in a great tense climax. He told the simple, dramatic story of the Arkansas cases—how the National Association and its lawyers had fought through all the courts of Arkansas and through the supreme Court of the United States on the principle that if one neon in Arkansas can be railroaded to prison for hiring a lawyer, no Negro in the United States is safe from the same type railroading. He asked for 50,000 to be used solely to defend covered coopers from the association knows to be denivated of their constitutional rights because of color. The fund would not be used, the speaker explained, to defend every colored person who got in jail, but every one denived of his rights because of color. Mr. Johnson reiterated the statement that the only way colored SUFFERERS!

We know that patience is a foundation upon which we have to build. But who has been more patient than we? (Applause). Who has endured more hardships, suffered more insults, bent to more humiliation than we? Thrift and industry? Look around you, sir, at these thousands who by thrift and industry and by devotion to the church have made themselves worthy to enjoy the rights of American citizens, but, sir, do they enjoy them?" (Wild applause). Turning squarely to the Governor's representative and pounding upon the table the speaker declared: "We are here to serve notice that this is a fight to the death for rights guaranteed us as American citizens by the Constitution." The crowd rose to its feet and thundered its applause. Continuing, Mr. Johnson said: "The Star, a great, powerful paper which ought to know better, advises us to stop talking about lynching, stop harping on hardships' and talk about the great achievements of colored Americans. We would like the Star and Governor Hyde to tell the white people about your achievements. We know all about them. We have neither the time nor the money to meet together and congratulate ourselves upon our achievements. We are concerned with justice. "In this fight we are struggling not for distinction from America, but for onesess with America." The closing session was marked by the presentation of the Sninkarn medal to Dr. G. W. Carver, of Tuskegee. An outstanding feature of the deliberations was the condemnation of the practice of colored voters of selling themselves and their ballots to one party. It was evident all through the sessions that Negroes all over the country had forsaken the one party idea and were voting for men and measures rather than for a party label. T. G.

PAGE FOUR Panama McMahon Boys Off at Commonwealth Great Panama Joe Gans W Gans in Star Bout With to Wipe Out Decisi Ed. and Jesse McMahon, managers of the Commonwealth Sporting Club, will give their regular fall and winter season in boxing a auspicious start the coming Saturday sight when they will offer in the star boat of the evening two fighters who should pack the old Commonwealth to the doors. The big clash will bring together the great Panama Joe Gans, who has never lost a decision in the many fights he has engaged in, at the Commonwealth, and Italian Joe Gans, the white boy, who quite some time ago won the decision over Panama at another club. In that memorable clash of these two leading fighters, the white boy sent Panama to the canvas for the count of nine quite an accomplishment, which was made much of by the big white dailies at the time. If Panama is in condition, fight fights will get a real treat at the Commonwealth Saturday night, for he is going out to wipe out that defeat, if he can. Italian Joe is some pumpkins himself in the fistic art, and he is coming to Harlem with the conviction that he will be the first to humble the colored whirlwind at the Commonwealth. Panama Joe is popular with both white and colored fight fans, as he is in a class by himself when it comes to sharp-shooting. He is also fully aware that he will have to be at his best with from his reason beamed and the encounter promises the fireworks when the two Gans meet. A first card will be offered in support of the splendid star at- traction, which alone would be well worth the price of admission. Ar- treatments to handle the season's biggest crowd are being perfected by the management of the club. Edwards Fails in Crack English Sprinter Off Meet Last Saturday Only Race England's premier sprinter, Harry V. P. Edwards', showing last Saturday at the Wilco games, was a disappointment to the hundreds of colored athletic fans who journeyed up to the Yankee Stadium to witness his first appearance on the American track. The much-heralded celebrity was shut out in the first heat of the 100-metre dash, trailing C. R. Brookins, Iowa University, and Lewis Clarke, Baltimore. He faired much better in the 300-metre event, placing second in his heat behind Louis Clarke. Edwards, with second place clinched, took it easy in the home stretch, evidently to reserve his strength for the final. The final saw him matching his speed with Loren Murchison, national 100 and 220-yard champion; Eric Wilson, Iowa University, and L. Clarke, Baltimore, but he was unequal to the task, finishing last. The time for the winner was 21 6-10 seconds. Do Hart Hubbard didn't have any trouble coming home a winner, in the broad jump, at which event he retained his title in Chicago ten days ago. Hubbard, with a leap of 23 feet 4½ inches, had little or no competition from the remainder of the Bold, Gourdin of Boston, world's record holder, jumping next, four feet behind his 1921 form, showed up miserably. Hubbard looked like a sure winner in the hop, step and jump event, until K. Geist of 928 Street Y. M. H. A. and national junior champion, in his last jump, made a leap of 47 feet 2½ inches, which Hubbard could not surpass in his final try. This is the first time the Michigan University boy has been beaten in two years. Bart Johnson ran a fine race against Willie Ritola and Blondy Rooms in the 500-metre event until three laps from home, when Ritola pulled away from Johnson and Romig and caused the tape 100 yards in the lead.

Basketball Baseball Football na Joe Enter Sensational Card Club for Saturday Will Again Face Italian Joe In Colored Fighter Trying on Gained by White. No Truth to Rumor Barring Colored Fighters And We Can Take the Stand in Behalf of the McMahons, Who Have Always Been Fair A wild rumor hit Harlem last week, carried through. It is reported, by certain fighters who have been showing at the Commonwealth Sporting Club, to the effect that the McMahon boys were about to retain only two fighters, Jack McVey and Buddy Saunders, on their list for appearances the coming season, where the colored boys are concerned. We firmly believe that all good colored fighters will continue to get a fair chance at the Commonwealth Sporting Club, and the rumor which stated that the colored boys would not be allowed to show at the best time of the year, when the crowds would be much larger than during the summer, is false. All during the summer months we have had colored boys showing at this club, and knowing the McMahon boys as well as we do. it is hard to believe that they would even think of cutting off our boys at a time when their opportunities would be greater. Fortunately, the appearance of Panama Joe Gans against Italian Joe Gans, coming at the start of the regular season of the Commonwealth, nails this lie on the head. Even when they were not in the immediate neighborhood, the present managers of the Commonwealth Sporting Club went out of their way to give our boys a chance and we have personally found them with the same warm welcome at every place they have located during the past 12 or 15 years.

Danny recently le for the re "Greathes there a man" who did not know that Paddy Mullins had as much chance of stepping the Firpo-Gempey fight as Panama Joe Gans will have in seeking a match with the holder of the middleweight title? In this same column you will read an article from the pen of Mr William Pickens of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The Dean, who is usually outspoken whenever he puts his pen to paper, has been moved to say a few words because of the injustice of the white man who in the case of Harry Wills has shown that he will stop at nothing to keep fooling himself about his superiority. Read what the Dean has to say. We blame Paddy Mullins, the white man managing Wills, for the turn affairs took after Jack Kearns got back from Shelby. Kearns returned to New York City with the same old lie of Dempey being prepared to meet Wills and the first whack out of the bag they went and arranged a match with Firpo. Mullina, for a man supposed to be well versed in the game, has shown a child-like confidence that has kept Wills out of the money. Instead of hopping any kind of a steamer when Dempsey went to Europe, Paddy remained over in Long Island City enjoying the fights at the Queensboro. Had he taken Wills to the old world and appeared at the theatres and music halls and told them of his woes, he would have got some speed out of Kearns, but as elder Eatmore would say, "there was silence." At the last minute Paddy entered the arena and imagined that the New York State Athletic Commission, from which Tex Rickard had the word to go ahead with his plans for a Firpo-Dempsey fight even before any kind of paper was signed permitting Dempsey and Kearna to operate here, would interfere with the plans of Messra, Stoneham, Rickard and the rest of the bunch controlling boxing here in New York. If George Moore was manager of Harry Wills, the day Dempsey left for Europe he would have chartered a freighter, an oil tank or one of those ocean going tugs and ten thousand colored people headed by the band of the 369th Infantry would have been at the pier to make a noise so that the world could hear. Upon his arrival in Europe he would have hired the band of the Coldstream Guards, King Edward's own, and everywhere Jack Dempsey appeared the band would have drowned his voice until Harry Wills had been heard. Upon his return to America protest meetings would have been held in every city of any size in the union. The white newspaper boys would have been on the heels of genial George hanging on his every word and "carrying on" in the columns of their ofay papers, all because George would have known just what to do. Instead of telling the commission fish stories George would have been telling them the inside story of how the ban was lifted when Danny Edwards arrived in town all the way from California. DEAN PICKENS SAYS A FEW WORDS. (By William Pickens) I can't it a slight for the godd!—and a sensation for your funny bone!—that Harry Wills must even be compelled to go into court to try to make Dempsey stand up for a fight—and may even fail to catch the "Dodger" by this lawful method. Two years ago the New York State Boxing Commission said that Dempsey would be compelled by LAW, to fight Wills within one year. Then, later, it seems, that white folks got their heads together and Dempsey was allowed to dodge on till the present day. station for your funny bone to go into court to try to may even fail to catch the e age the New York State bid be compelled, BY LAW, It seems, that white folks beled to dodge on till the fight out of the white man, art of the State—but when a perfectly willing. When Just think of it! In order to get a fair fight out of the white man the Negra must appeal to the Supreme Court of the State—but ever it's one hundred to one, the whites are perfectly willing. When one hundred, or one thousand, whites can go with guns and chase one empty-handed black, the fight comes off promptly. But when there is to be a referen, a time-ball, a set of rules about "feuiling," and a one-to-one match, a court and a jury seem to be needed to get the white man to stand up to it. Oh, of course, it is different when there is a gang—when there is someone near to trip the Negra, to grab his leg and pull him down, or to attack him from the rear while the "brave" one attacks him in front. That is different—and it is dead easy to get a fight of that kind. And now Mr. Dempsey hurries to announce that "just because" Wills appealed to the courts, "I will never fight Wills." It seems to us that Dempsey was in just a bit of a hurry to make that announcement. It came so easy, that we suspect he was just looking for some good pretent to say that—for the last two years or more. What are courts for, anyhow, if they are not to be appealed to for the settlement of points at law? Is it a crime for Wills to ask the State to make Dempsey stand by his pledge and to make the white man's boxing commission stand by its own public pronouncements? Dempsey says that Firpe has "fought his way to the chance, and the whole world knows that Wille was standing front to front with Dempsey before ever Firpe was heard of. The world also knows that Wille was perfectly willing to fight Firpe first and eliminate him from the championship race. And few, if any, had any doubt about the outcome of a fight between Wille and Firpe. We are glad Wille is thus showing Dempsey up to the world, and making it known that it will take the State to make Dempsey fight him,—even if the State will do it. "I will never fight Wille,"—that's what we had been suspecting all along, Mr. Dempsey. That is no information to us. And we suspect that Wille has come to the same conclusion—and is therefore resolved to expose you. And here's a hearty wish that Firpe, or some other contender, will soon put Dempsey out, even if by accident, so that heavyweight boxing can become a sport again.

Manager Moore Swings His Stable Into Action and Predicts Big Season Three of His Best Men Will Be Sent Into Action Commencing Thursday Night and Round Out the Month at the Pioneer Sport Club. The first big gun in a season that promises great activity in fistic circles will be fired by George P. Moore, manager of a string of fighters who have been and will continue to attract attention under his able management. On the coming Thursday night Moore is sending Ansell Bell, better known as Kid Buller, after "Providence Terry" Martin in a return match at Simon Flaherty's Queensboro Stadium in Long Island City. The bowl went up by the fans is confident of defeating Goldstein when the decision was given this time. Having succeeded in against Buller in a bout which starting his smaller men for the showed Martin attempting all the month of September. Moore is now rough stuff on the calendar, induced the manager of the Queensboro to angle for the return engagement, which he was successful in landing and fans at the Long Gans, it will be remembered, island home of fattails will be treated to a fast and thrilling exhibition when these two crack fighters meet. On the same night! at the 102D Armory, Manager Moore is sending his little fighter, Bobby Risdon, against Joe Melito. Every time he starts, Risdon has made a hit with the fans and in meeting Melito he is stacking up against as fine a little white fighter as ever appeared in the game. That he will give a good account against Joe we all expect, as he in going in great form these days. Another fight this month that will keep the Moore stable in the timelight is the return engagement between Danny Edwards and Abe Goldstein at the Pioneer Athletic Club. Goldstein some weeks ago knocked out Edwards after putting up a slashing battle against the little colored crack who was not at his heat. Danny has been laying off and recently left town to start training for the return bout which he realizes means much to him, as he must wipe out the defeat suffered at the hands of Goldstein. Edwards is noted for his sensational comebacks and fans believe that he will again pull the 'thrill' as he is confident of defeating Goldstein this time. Having succeeded in starting his smaller men for the month of September. Moore is now busying trying to get his heavy artillery in action by seeking a return match between Willie Walker and Panama Joe Gans. Gans, it will be remembered, took Willie in the ninth round in their last fight at the Commonwealth, but Willie is telling the world that Joe cannot repeat and all he naks is a chance to get Flynn's man in the ring again. This should be a very attractive match at the Commonwealth, as both Willie and Joe are popular and hundreds believe that Gans will never be able to put up the same kind of battle against Moore's boy. Odell Still Confident Odell Crump blew in the other night to say that he is still an confident as he ever was over the ability of his boy Alex Gibbons to hold his own with the best of them and he is anxious and very much desirous of knowing why Alex is being passed up when he can question the right of any man his weight. Odell feels that with the first opportunity Gibbons will not only prove everything true his manager has to say of him, but will startle the fans with the improvement he has been showing in fights out of SPECIALIZING IN THE CORRECTION OF FALLEN ARCHES AND THE TREATMENT OF THE MINOR FOOT AILMENTS.

"If "Shuffle Along" At the beginning of the show season, audiences are fairly hungry for theatrical entertainment. And the more populal it is, the more virtifiable,舞ful, songful and carefree, the more appetishing is it. That fact was very apparent over at the Broadway last night where the colorful—no pun intended—"Shuffle Along" production of melody, mirth and stepology began a two nights' engagement. A ripple of laughter, of applause, of enjoyment is all the more apparent, all the more emphatic and indicative when it sweeps over a theatre-filling audience. So the offering also had that fact in its favor for it was a sure-enough theatre-filling attendance that gave every evidence of enjoying the show from start to finish. The fact of the matter is that a theatrical production, such as hot nights, presented by colored entertainers, is sure to be full of action from principals to the chorus, incitative, and back aats. No stalling anywhere. Everybody is on his or her toes and 'rarin' to go. If there is anything disrespectful in the theatrion it is to see a few stars in some musical affair trying to put the show across and most of the minor principals and the chorus indifferently lumbering through their parts as if wondering whether the apple sauce will be all gone before they can reach the restaurant, or if there is rhubard pie on the menu. "Shuffle Along" is not guilty of anything of the sort—far from it. It sometimes happens that in productions of this nature there is an outstanding star, perhaps several principals who carry the show, but generally these entertainments are a combination of many details that either make or break them. There are various specific instances of special merit that combine to make "Shuffle Along" a well worth evening's amusement—Mama Jackson, as "Jessie Williams," singing with verve and considerable ability; Theo McDonald, the "Fairy" of the band; the plight of the earnest endearment and good voice; Manton Moland, the "Onions" of the production, giving us damping steps that make us wonder how on earth one ever could think of inventing them; Al Saldwin, singing "When the Leaves...Come Tumbling Down! Higher...Walkie at the piano playing My Baldwin's accompaniments with a touch and rhythm that be speak five of music; Billy Dewey, the "Slave Jenkins" who is mayor for a jury; Edgar Connor, as "Sam Pock," who wants to be mayor and is a little giant of comedy; the quartet that was enclosed repeatedly and kept in the library for the lot of other details. (The dancer is clever, but we did what he would be a bit more pianis- son at times.) Away, humming it all up, we disposed to take the view of the audience in general rather than that of any (individual) critic who was out out to pick faws, and that audience in general uniquely liked the show very, very much. We string our bots on the audience when it comes to determine whether a fun, dance, and melody is getting over. Go over and see it. You'll like Go over and see it. You'll like it. We certainly did. "Rugain' Wild" The Pittsburgh Courier tells us the company with skills and ability: The enormous demand for tickets and the continued capacity boomed; for the rolllicking Dixie musical hit, "Shuffle Along," at the Stuhlbert-Pitt Theatre, where it has sung, played and danced into the playground an assured Pittsburgh success this week, has prompted the management to extend the annual event one more week, and next Friday night at the theatre it will begin the second and last week of the stay. One of the marked features of "Shuffle Along" is the smaller enthusiasm with which everyone works from the popular scare, Stuhlbert and Shuffle down to Drama and Comedy ed Peri Show They Are All success Everywhere "Can' Wild," "How Come?"

Be Along" and "Runnin' Wild." all these shows in return dates the girls appearing as the syncopating stenographer. All who see this sensational success talk about the pop and the infinite pains the clever Shuffers take to give the public its money's worth. Shale and Blake have written a number of tuneful melodies, among them "Wild About Harry," "Love Will Find a Way," "Bandana Days," "If You haven't Been Vamped by a Frown Skin, You haven't Been Vamped at All," "Honeysuckle Time," "Gypy Blue," The splendid cast of runmakers includes Lottie Gee, Edith Spencer, Lou Payton, the Four Harmony Kings, Joe Slimm, the Hann, I. H. Browning, and others. The Boston Globe in speaking of the new show of Miller and Lyles had the following to say: "Runnin' Wild," a musical comedy given by Miller and Lyles, the colored comedians who gained fame and fortune in "Shuffle Along." was the attraction at the opening for the season of the Selwyn Theatre yesterday. I like "Shuffle Along," which had such a long engagement at the same playhouse last season, it is spirited and characteristic and reflects credit on producers and performers. The high standard for darky shows established by "Shuffle Along" has been fully maintained in "Runnin' Wild." "There are many who will say the new comedy is better and fewer who will not be as good. It is equally good, has been so arranged as to preserve the Jimtown atmosphere and to permit the introduction of novelties, and embellishments. "Runnin' Wild" is full of dancing and singing, and both are excellently done. New comedy business by the stars. Miller and Lyles, adds a generous amount of riotous mirth so that throughout the audience is constantly entertained. "Runnin' Wild" is more than a title. It is an apt descriptive phrase for this tonn-motch colored festival. It is plainly evident that a sincere attempt has been made to make the show as lively as its predecessor and not stick too close to the original pattern. The audence at the Selwyn were friendly, which no doubt, encouraged the performance. Applause greeted every number—some numbers received more than half dozen encores—and jokes went over with a snap. The story, which is merely a background for the scenes between Miller and Lyles, and the splendid singing and dancing already referred to, deals with the ups and downs of a pair of likable scamps played, of course, by the stars. The first two scenes, dealing with Jimtown, have many of the characters remembered in "Shuffle Along." but there comes a violent shift from the Sunny South to the blizzard-stew St. Paul, Minn., where, as one of the comedians suggests, he "don't need no thermometer to tell him to put on an overcoat." "Rudin's Wild" proves there are as many varieties of eccentric dancing as there are shades of color. There is the "strutin'" of Pob Lee, the soft-sleeve dancing of Tommy Woods, the acrobatic slippes of a roustabout on the levee; the faxing of the pretty chorus girls, the lively stepping of the chorus men and numerous additional features. Of the musical numbers "Old Pashioned Love" seemed to make an undisputed hit. "Log Cabin Dawn," the female quartet, "Open Your Heart," "Every Day Blues" and others equally effective formed part of an admirable program. "Follow Me" In the meantime the Youngstown Daily Vindicator gives us an careful anent the new show headed by Billy Higgins, which will most likely come to the Lafayette in the near future: Every so often the monotony of entertainment is broken abruptly by the birth of a masterpiece, so to speak, which descends upon the theatregoers like a message from the dead, vividly recalling pleasant memories and happy hours spent in company with those who starred before the footlights in the days gone by. "Follow Me," just such a musical belt from where, opened a three day department at the Park Theatre Thursday evening, and for more than two solid hours a parked house held with law and measure NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPT 12, 1923 really high class musical comedy which easily equalled, if not surpassed, some which are now but a memory. "Follow Me," in two acts and 16 scenes, is positively the best. most extragavantly produced and entertaining musical comedy with colored actors that has been offered on a Youngtown stage since the halcyon days of Williams and Walker. A big house greeted and later roared with delight at this rich production which embraces a brand of entertainment just a little different, a trifle more classical and far more elegant than the best which has been offered here. The names of Billy Higgins and Clifford Ross, principal comedians, will finger in the memories of those who witness the show long after this company has gone. Their initial appearance here instantly excited recollections of Williams and Walker and the comparison grew as the performance progressed. It is not often that a Young town audience roars and shows with appreciation, but one did last evening with every appearance Higgins and Ross. Both are artists of the first string and their every effort clearly shows what elevated them to the heights of stardom they have reached. They have ample opportunity to prove their merit and do so emphatically. A mild plot, nevertheless intercating, runs through the play. The musical numbers are of the sort that compel you to keep time and unconsciously you discover yourself swaying in your seat, drinking in every note and totally absorbed in the tune. Artists gracefully handled the song numbers in legitimate style and scored repeatedly. The chorus is snappy, trained to precision and with an augmented pony ballat merit recognition for their excellent chorus work. The scenes are elaborately staged in rich plush drapes and beautiful backgrounds, creating a vision of rare beauty and harmony that would do credit to a top priced musical show. Higgins "study in black" is a feature well worth the price of admission, while Ross's impersonation of Bert Williams is remarkably clever and close to perfection. Both scored heavily in these offerings. Others in the cast who featured successfully with specialties and single turns were Valda Snow and Julia Moody. The former is a geniusul "blues" songster and Miss Moody a feature artist who demonstrated what caused the universal success of jazz in song, dance, and music. Ernest R. Whiteman scored with song numbers rendered in pleasing fashion. Sylvia Mitchell, Edna Taylor, Elvira Johnson, William Gunn, Colman Tytus and Ed Caldwell won favor with their various offerings which included sensational dancing, song numbers and repatriate. The versatility of Miss Snow was remarkable and predicted future stardom for this clever young artist. "Follow Me" is the sort of musical comedy which creates a call for more. It is a well balanced and cleverly arranged performance, costumed to perfection and presented in a manner to enable it to stand the test of the most exacting. The book is by Max Michaels and the music by James Vaughn. Thursday night's performance was thoroughly enjoyed, and a patronage less than a sell-out Friday and Saturday would be an injustice to the merits of this entertaining production. See it and satisfy yourselves. "How Come?" In speaking of the show as offered by the "How Come?" company with Eddie Hunter in the leading role, the Buffalo Inquirer said: A poppy chorus of dusky creoles, some clever scenes and exceptional dancing by Johnny Nit, make "Home Come?" the all Negro musical comedy which opened the Shubert-Teck theatre last night, a delightful entertainment of a callibre similar to "Shuffle Along." Opening with an especially pleasing first act, the show received a warmer welcome than that extended to it in New York at the opening five months ago. Lacking any attempt at plot, it is just a show of gizzer on the part of the cast. Carrying the comedy part, Eddie Hunter won the loud approval of the audience with his original and quick offerings plus a round of burlesque tricks. George W. Cooper made an excellent partner. As a dancer, Johnny Nit proved himself in a separate class that rates well among the best. Nina Hunter, Nona Cheater, Alice Brown, Alberta Hunter and Katherine Jarvis led the lusty- singing, high-stopping, "not-so- hard-to-look-up" chorus. Pleasant costumes added to the display of shapey figures moving in ragtime rhythm. She particularly clever scene bridge out a bodge station disgu- sed as a booth-shop shop. Count- ers, bottles and all are converted into a Sunday school room at the sound of a police whistle. A few such original incidents with the hard working and anxious to please must make "How Come?" It equals, but does not better "Shuffle Along," as a show. Lack of theme is largely to blame for the set back, but the show is one of a clever group of able Negro encounterers doing their stunt shows. Hunter is one of the best black face encounter in the stage today, and best the house in rears of housewife with his funny motif.

"Pa William's Gal" Discovered at the Lafayette Splendid Work of Artists in Production Well Received at Lafayette Opening Night Frank Wilson's offering at the Lafayette Theatre, which is playing here all this week, uncovered to a curious gathering on Monday night just who "Pa William's Gal" happened to be, much to the satisfaction of an appreciative audience. As we expected, the artists in the play again rose to the occasion and gave a splendid performance. This being Mr. Wilson's first big effort we hope that such support will be given the show in warrant him in keeping to his ideal and producing a drama that will some day be received in circles that will mean name, fame and fortune for him. Richard B. Harrison, an outstanding figure at all times and one of the race's leading executionists, lived up to everything said of him in the past, and his work drew the commendation of some of the most intelligent people in the audience on Monday night. Miss Dolores Haskins also came in to make great deal of praise for wonderful work all of the artists among whom were the authors F. H. Wilson, Marie Young, Walter Smith, Rosalie McClendon, Morris McKenny and II. Lawrence Freeman, directing his folk-song singers.

Going Into Effect Latter Part of This Week With the departure of Wilbur Sweatman's Jazz Kings from Connie's latter part of this week, announcement was made that another bunch of musicians who already earned name and fame are arriving and players will step in. This will that the first night of the appearance of Letroy Smith and his musicians will be in the nature of a big opening and every effort will be made to please the added through that will seek entrance at the Ing. The Rector, Grace and Eddie, will continue to put on their stuff at the fan and as their popularity seems to grow the longer they stay, the coming of Leroy and his players will add zeit to what they have to offer. These musicians are known all over as the real thing when it comes to dishing up entertainment such as they offer, and the musicians will prove true anything we can say of them at this time. Others on the bill still pleasing the big crowds include Coke and Parker and Mutt and Jeff. With smiling Harry Griffin to welcome you and Livestone Lyons, George Immerman's right hand man, on the job, nothing is left to be desired by the most extening. With but two more league games to round out their quota and holding more than a seven-game lead over the Cuban Stars. Ed. Holden's Hilldale Club has practically grabbed the first pennant of the Eastern Colored League. The leaders meet the Cubans for the last time of the season in a league game September 22, and have a postponed game with the Brooklyn Royal Giants vet to be played to round out their schedule of fifty games. The Brooklyn Royal Giants have its last six games and have embumed from down near the corner this position, and should have secured second. The Royal Giants have opened an eight-game series with the Cuban Stars, upon these games will hinge the title of second place. For the first time this season the Lincoln Giants have crawled out of the cillar, Jim Keenan's cohorts, by virtue of taking two games out of three from the Baltimore Sox, traded places with Spedden's crew, the Sox sinking deeper into the mire when they dropped a Joain-bheader to the Brooklyn Royal Giants in New York on Labor Day. Due to petty differences between commissioners of several league clubs, the schedule has not been balanced properly, although all of the commissioners agreed upon a fifty-game layout for each team, because of it being the first venture in organized ball, a portion of the schedule being left open for the benefit of a couple of teams. For this reason it was impossible to publish the schedule prior to the season's opening. * LEAGUE STANDING. W. L. P.C. Hilldale . . . 17 17 . . . 646 Cuban Stars . . . 19 13 . . . 594 Biklyn Roy.

Manhattan, at 126th street and St. Nicholas Avenue, has opened for the new term. There are three departments. viz., Common Branches, English to Foreigners and Industrial. In the Common Branches, men and women, boys and girls, who have not completed the work of the first eight years in day school, will find splendid opportunities to make up all deficiencies and secure their diplomas, which will admit them to High School. In the English to Foreigners department, all foreigners desiring to learn English, and those who wish to perfect themselves in the use of the English language, will find classes suited to their individual needs. Many of our students have successfully passed the examinations and are now in the High Schools. The Industrial Department has expert instructors to help women and girls in the making of gowns, wraps, hats, etc. Do not neglect your opportunities. Come to Evening School No. 157 and avail yourself of the advantages held out to you. Manhattan "Y" Notes The Branch extended its hospitality to the Grand Boule, which met in the Auditorium on September 6, 6 and 7.

A list of rooms furnished by trained worker—is kept on file. It is therefore possible, with a knowledge of room and of applicant, to make many satisfactory and happy placements.

PITTSBURGH, Pa. Sept. 10. The Coroner of Allegheny County is having considerable trouble in having a hearing in connection with the deaths as a result of the Ku Klux Klan riot at Carnegie last month. Nine residents of Carnegie at liberty on the night of the illegal connection with the riot on August 25, when Thomas R. Abbott, a member of the Klan, was killed. The hearing was set for Thursday, but had to be deferred because county authorities were unable to summon all the witnesses. PITTSBURGH, Pa., Sept. 11.—Five men were injured when 21 tons of steel and lumber, comprising the roof of a building under construction in Pean avenue, collapsed and fell 30 feet to the first floor last Friday morning. Among the injured workmen were: John Shanks, aged 47 years, 58 Crawford street, four ribe broken, cut and bruised, suffering from shock. Walter J. Franier, aged 38 years, 3 Glendora street, lacerations and bruises. Both men, are in the Homeopathic Hospital. The other men were white.

Ifill's Candidacy Thrown on Rocks Makes Motion to Compel Bd. of Elections to Place His Name on Ballots Argument on the motion of James P. Illl. 200 West 140th Street, a lawyer, for a mandamus directing the Board of Elections to place his name on the primary ballot as a Republican candidate for the Assembly from the state was heard by Supreme Court Justice Guy last Friday. Illl's designating petition, which bore 385 signatures, with 212 necessary by law, was thrown out by the Board of Elections at a hearing September 4 as defective. He planned to oppose the candidacy of John T. McNell, white, 600 West 142d Street, the organization's choice. The objections to the petition were filed with the Board by Henry Ernsthal, 500 West 142d Street, a collector in the Internal Revenue Department. Ill's petition to the Supreme Court declared he was notified to appear before the Board September 4 for a hearing, that he went there at 11 o'clock, the designated hour, and was refused permission to see the objections, or the petition of himself and his opponent, and told no hearing would be held because the court hearing was scheduled for the day. It developed at the hearing that the Board's hearing was held at 10 o'clock and that Ill's petition was thrown out. Justice Guy directed the attorneys to submit their papers. TIGER FLOWERS TOYS WITH JAMAICA KID (By The Dubb for Preston News Service) ATLANTA, Ga. Sept. 10.—Georgian Tarmace, Suite 503-509, to Hon. Linc Johnson, somewhere in the North: My dear Linc: Well, Linc, I was down to the auditorium Tuesday night to see Tiger Flowers, the man with a thousand arms, achieve another brilliant fistic victory before a great audience of home folks. For 12 rounds, Linc, the Tiger, whom I have nicknamed "The Atlanta Centipede." hurled gloves so fast into the anatomy of the Jaw that I could not hold wellowed, but the audience as well. I was still dizzy the morning, after from trying to follow Flowers with the naked ears. I took our mutual friend, Mr. R——J——, to the fight, and when we returned to his home after the battle to get a piece of watermelon that his good wife had promised us, we were both so dizzy from trying to keep track of Flowers' punches that his kind wife thought I had taken her husband out to several "little thirstys" for a wild party, and she threatened to hit us both over the head with a rolling pin. We had to assure her that we were still loyal members of the Agoga Sunday school class in good standing, and that we had taken nothing stronger than orange crush before she would supply us with water. Wally Linc. is Flowers' person, perhaps one of those whirling lawn sprinklers that sprays the water all over the yard. He literally sprayed Jamaica Kid with punches. Jamails Kid halted from New York City, and I'll say he came a long way to take such a beating. I think he must of thought he had come to the wrong address and had gotten mixed up in a Tokyo earthquake. As I was leaving the arena, Linc, I heard one guy, whom I will nickname "Probl," say to another, whom I will name "Ant-Probl." Probl "Wow. Flowers didn't know him out." Ant-"No, you can't knock out a good gile, but you can certainly chop it up into small pieces." I laughed heartily at this bit of regrets. It covered the situation like a blanket. It is true, Linc, that the husky gorilla from New York City successfully weathered the storm and was probably in no danger of being knocked out at any stage of the fight. But I'll venture the prediction that it will be quite a while before he is able to eat tobacco sauce on his lamb chop and that he will need the care of a specialist before he can find an opening in his noirstil for breathing purposes, and that he will difficulty in recognizing his friends, or enjoying a band concert. All his faculties were impaired. As a noted expert, Linc, I always try to keep an accurate tabulationanches and my statistics the morning after the fight showed that the number of times the Jamaica Kid was hit, reached up to the millions. Unfortunately, Linc. I did not get the entire number of punches, for I looked away for a half second and to speak to Mayor Sims, and my buddy says that Flowers hit him at least a million times while my head was turned. Well, Linc. this Tiger Flowers is about as good as they get to be. His skill is amazing, his speed dazzling and accuracy astounding. They are Harry Green the northerners in a faint hitter, but I (Preston News Service) HURT WHEN ROOF FALLS. Hurt in Fight.

EVERN GEORGIA IS ON KLAN'S TRAIL MACON, Ga., Sept. 8—At least five arrests will be made before eight, according to Roy W. Moore, City Court solicitor, in connection with information connecting Macon and Milledgeville members of the Ku Klux Klan with two invasions of the State Training School for Boys last month for the alleged purpose of kidnapping two colored employees. The information, according to county authorities, was obtained during the investigation of a conference of Klanmen, which is said to have been held in an abandoned house 18 miles from here last Monday. Its nature of the information was not disclosed. R. O. Dunning, chief of staff of the Georgia Ku Klux Klan, yesterday notified authorities here that he was coming from Milledgeville with information that might be of value to the investigators. The trial of seven men, held here in connection with recent floggings, are scheduled to be held here next week. Bollicitor Moore declared last night that the state "had an inexhaustible supply of testimony to be presented at the trials." NEWARK BOYS' MEET (Prairie News Service.) NEWARK, N. J. Sept. 10. The fourth annual athletic meet of the Newark Council of Colored Boys' Work will be held Saturday, September 22 at Weequahic Park. Former meets have been quite successful, due largely to the fact that the participants and their parents did everything possible to make it a success, together with the assistance of the business men of Newark. All colored boys between the ages of 12 and 18 years will be permitted to enter the meet if they send in their entries on or before September 18. Entries will be received at 107 Academy street, Newark, N. J., by H. M. Stewart, executive secretary. "BIRTHRIGHT" AUTHOR WRITING IN HARLEM E. S.

Labor · Day was auspiciously observed in by the Mamasas Col- lege in Baltimore Association, who bears ppt on display tons of horse- fish almost worth its weight in gold at the annual event which opened September 2, 1923. Blacks, bays, sorrels, chestnuts, grays, and every color or mixture of shod horsemen are welcomed, and whom- tled and hopped before a multitude of 10,000 admirers from Virginia and adjacent territories, all of whom, at the close of the eventful day, readily admitted that Virginia horse shows were classi- cals celebrations unequalled else- where.

Law a Rich Man's Profession By its trend of persuasive activities, the American Bar Association has shown its emphatic disposition to make the practice of law a rich man's profession within the coming future. The handwriting on the walls is plainly apparent by the association's regular publication to prolegal training and exceptionally high standards for colleges of law. The recommendations are good for the law student who has countless funds at his disposal or whose parents are able to advance him about $1,000 a year. In some university whose courses meet with the approval of the Bar Association, but what is going to become of the "Abraham Lincoln" type of law student, who without funds has legal talent of natural endowment, and who, after self-sufficiency, would have more ability than the student pushed through school by money power alone? Upon the colored law student, particularly, the proposed requirement to work great hardships. Few of such students there will be who can master up funds with which to attend expensive universities. For many, the only way to attend the only two colored law schools in the United States, and in the meantime, they must work extremely hard to present at each school. We do not doubt the good faith of the American Bar Association in endeavoring to place the legal profession upon a high potential, occupation, and ability, but we do doubt that the association has given consideration to the enforced denial of studying privileges which colored students must not get the American Bar Association, concurrently with its new recommendations, work out a plan for financing students who have abilities but no funds. Let not the legal minds be denied the legal minds which will be needed in the future progress of American law, order and rights. J. Finley Wilson, G. E. K. Bita. J.

ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS, N. J. Sept. 11.—Because he could not resist the temptation to take a vacation on money that does not belong to him, James Perkins, janitor of the National Bank here, was held in jail here last Thursday on a charge of having taken $600 in dollar bills from the bank several days ago. Perkins admitted that he took the money, claiming that he had an irresistible feeling to go down to Virginia to see his mother and friends. He had just returned from down home. During the two weeks he was away he had spent all except $33, which he turned over to the officers. of components of the sphere of the masses. Wilson made promises last year which he has kept. Therefore, he has made promises which he has made for the coming year. Last year's growth of the order is past history. This is certainly because, more and more, the meek and lowly look to kleddom for aid and comfort, and the dissemination of helpful activities dependent upon increased growth. It is characteristic of Elkdom that in conventions petty differences should be laid upon the table and North and South, East and West, and winning honor to whom honor is due. We wish Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson well, and we wish every Elk well. "Close-up" of "Rumpain Wild." "The Cameraman" took a "close-up" of "Miller and Lyles" "Runnin' Wild" at the Howard Theatre last week, from whence k is booked for Boston, and then for the big title "Runnin' Wild" at the New York. This comedy is without doubt the premier of all attempts to send out a company of colored performers which would captivate every audience in the land. The Miller and Lyles and their co-star, there is a feature of the show which is fully as great a drawing card as the comedians themselves. That feature is the orchestra, presided over by Will Cook, the colored music man. Will Cook, we haven't seen him yet; and if there's another theatre orchestra of the excellence of the one accompanying "Runnin' Wild" comprised of Felix Weir, Willie Carroll, Ainz Sewell, im Johnson, and we haven't heard it yet; nor have we even heard of it. To our unbiased mind, the story of the play is good; the comedy is great, and the music is great. And the other, in order to make "Runnin' Wild" what it is. The orchestral accompaniment and Will Cook's unequalled direction of the two songs is the heart and "Old Fashioned Love," would make even Victor Herbert and his orchestra go into a long series of rehearsals. The joy dance of the laves and the thrill of the show, standing features of the show, which is destined to astonish white and colored audiences a little throughout the present theatrical Phil H.

"You big baby! You would make me ridiculous? No, you won't; you'll stay here and meet my friends and act like a gentleman." With his inexperience of women and the world the Virgin had no words to meet hers; besides, he had already repented his childish act. "Oh, you know how it is, Beatrix," he said. "I just love you, that's all." "If you love me you'll have some respect for my wishes. Let me introduce you to Miss Roma Shields." "A martial name," said the Virgin, recovering himself with a laugh. "Roma Shields—it makes me see legions on the march." Beatrix led him to a alender, dove-eyed little lady who was an unlike Roman, shields as possible, and who greeted him reservedly as if she had not been eager to meet him for a year. Then she took him to Miss Victoria Green, who acted as if she had never heard of him, though she had been asking the boys about him for months. The Virgin, of course, knew nothing about it, and he ran the gantlet of introductions to many other ladies who, he would have been astonished to learn, knew almost as much about his life and habits as he himself. At last Beatrix introduced him to Miss Laura Worth. way. Nevertheless, they do more damage than is generally realised. It's a shame. "If you knew me better," he said hopefully, "I suppose you would point out some psychic cannibals, as you call them. I might profit by it, you know." "I wish you would," she said sadly, "but you wouldn't. Once, in true friendship, I warned a man against a cannibal. He immediately fell in love with her." "Did she eat him?" laughed the Virgin. "Indeed she did!" The Virgin went through the next few dances with various Just as he was presented, the cornet at the end of the hall gave a blare, the drum roiled, the violins shrieked, and then all of them swirled into a brisk two-step. A handsome freshman came up to claim his dance with Beatrix, and the Virgin was left alone with Miss Laura Worth. "Are you engaged, Miss Worth?" he asked. "Neither for marriage nor for this dance," she laughed, and they were off for the two-step. When the two-step was over she said, quite simply, "You are a very good dancer, Mr. Virgina." "You know my nickname, I see." "Who doesn't?" she saked, smiling. "I've known it for a year, and I wanted to meet a young man who deserved such a name. And you do deserve it." "Is that a compliment?" he asked doubtfully. "What else could it be?" "I don't know about that," he said. "I've often feared that to women it meant the same thing as duh." "To some women it does. There are women and women, and like loves like. I used to think that all women liked strong men, good or bad; but since I seen them, cling to specimens of the male sex who had neither strength nor hor- or, I've changed my mind." "So they like mod boxa." "Be they now good boys." "Yes. The real women like them for their principles, and the false ones like them as prey." "As prey?" said the Virgin. "I don't understand that." "I know you don't," she said, looking him squarely in the eye till he felt uncomfortable. "There are such things as psychic cannibals." "What a queer phrase," said the Virgin. "What do these psychic cannibals do?" "They feed upon your emotions till they are sated, then they throw you aside for other victims. Perhaps they cannot help it, for they are made that "What else could it be?" way. Nevertheless, they do more damage than is generally realized. It is a shame. "If you knew me better," he said hopefully, "I suppose you would point out some psychic cannibals, as you call them. I might profit by it, you know." "Wish you would," she said sadly, "but you wouldn't. Once, in true friendship, I warned a man against a cannibal. He immediately fell in love with her." "Did she eat him?" laughed the Virgin. "Indeed she did!" The Virgin went through the next few dances with various ladies he had met during the evening. All of them praised his dancing. Whenever he looked for Bentrix she was surrounded by admirers, among whom he saw his friends, Will Rocce, Nick Hartwell and Phill Worden. Joe Grimes alone seemed to be immune. Joe strolled up to the Virgin between dances. "Keep it up, Virgin." he said, amiably. "You're the hit of the dance. They'll have you for breakfast at every table in Boston to mowrow." "Oh. I don't know," said the Virgin, modestly. "You seem to be making pretty fast time yourself." "No, I'm no lady killer. I thought go once, but a few hard blades curved me." By the way, you seemed to be having quite a conversation with Laura Worth. "What do you think of her?" "Brave up, man!" said Joe. "Now's the time to show your gameness." The Virgin stiffened, and went down the balcony stairs with Joe, trying to look natural. "If you have a dance with anybody, take it," said Joe. "Don't show anything in your shoe, whatever you do." "I haven't any dance," said the sickened Virgin. "I only want to get out of bed and Joe will have no dance either. We'll go home together, that is, if you think you can stand any company." The Virgin nodded, and they went to the clockroom. When they emerged in their overcoat Costs Will and Nick and Will hurried up to them. "What's the hurry, fellows?" they asked. "There are two dances more." "The Virgin likes to go to bed early, you know." laughed Joe. "He's been yawning for the last half hour and I've been trying to keep him awake." Thus Joe accounted for the Virgin's long face. "But aren't you going to take anyone home, Joe?" "No," they all turned me down. Come to think of it, why aren't you follows dancing attendance on the bells of the evening? "That freshman, Fenner, has chased them all away," said Tom Storeham, joining the group in time to hear Joe's question. "And why isn't He's a new man, handmade as Leicester; comes from big people, and has plenty of money." "Surely," said Joe, in anecdote, "the superior Miss Markey is above mercenary considerations." "I'm not touching that," said Tom. There was a rattle of skids behind them. It was Leura Worth. "Boys," she said, "this is awful, going away without saying good-bye." "The Virgin is sleepy," said Joe, "he's not a night hawk like the rest of us." "But all the girls will want to know why you went away without saying anything. Didn't you like us, Mr. Virgin?" "Of course," said the girl, glimming a pitiful smile. "Bellamy, you must bring Mr. Virgin to see me." "Or he can come himself," said Joe. "That would be better." "Yes," laughed Laura. "I know only too well there is nothing dangerous about me." But behind her laughing eyes every-woman's nerve of her was on the alert. She knew that something or other had happened, or they would not be leaving. "Now, I do expect your job to call soon. Mr. Virgin. You've had a nice time, haven't you? Something in this straight-forward girl, with the broad face and neck, broke down the Virgin's dismiliation. He addressed her hand like a wrench, and all the misery in him came to his face. "Yes, Miss Worth," he forced himself to say, "a very good time." They said good night and left the hall. Lanna Worth stood looking after them, sabiling her numb hand thoughtfully.

Mortgages pay 1191AD-1191B REST News of Churches, Fraternities, and Organizations Judge of Alabam' to Uphold Courts Lest Private Malice and Racial Hates Actuate Motives of Mobs --- (PATTERN NEWS SERVICE). DECATUR, Ala. Sept. 12.—Persons who take upon themselves the task of inflicting punishment on others may be actuated by highest motives, but it is easy for them to deceive themselves, according to Judge James E. Horton, in a charge to the Morgan County Grand Jury on the activities of bands of men. Judge Horton pointed out that activities of these bands were few if at all in this section, but warned the citizenship that the jurisdiction of the court in meeting outishment should not be interfered with. The Judge said in part: "There has recently been an unusual number of attacks upon private citizens by masked bands and numerous persons upon one pretext or another have been taken out and whipped and severely beaten. But as a spirit of lawlessness is more or less epidemic, it is well we should be careful to immediately suppress any acts of this kind. "There can be but one place for the meeting out of punishment and that is through the courts. The courts are instrumentalities instituted by the people for the punishment of offenders against the law. No matter what the crime, how guilty the party and how united public opinion, there are no excuses for private persons taking the execution of punishment into their own hands. Suppose in one instance the perpetrators are actuated by the highest motives and are seeking what they believe heat for their communities. But our better natures are easily debased. Soon private malice and individual hate will become the actuating motive." Commissioner Brown Speaks Addresses Toronto Convention on Problems of Negro Labor (Preston News Service.) TORONTO, Canada, Sept. 10. Accompanying Assistant Secretary of Labor Henning and bureau chiefs and officials of the U. S. Department of Labor, Phil H. Brown, U. S. Commissioner of Labor, delivered a notable address today before the International Association of Employment Services, which is closing a memorable convention in this city on employment problems and policies. Cancellator Brown concluded his address with the following significant utterance: "I refuse to confess judgment that Negro labor is inferior. Inured to the language of our country, to its customs, ideals and traditions, it should have priority over distinctively alien labor. The simonpurity of its loyalty, its cheerfulness, and its availability weigh strongly in its favor. It asks only an opportunity to show its fine points. The labor is it is striving. What labor it is striving, catch with acknowledged stand- and when it catches up I pledge you that it will keep up." An appreciative audience, including the Premier of Labor of Canada, governmental officials, and labor experts from all over the country, gave close attention to the Commissioner's remarks. Says Cleveland Has Enough Negroes Editor of Louisville Daily Tries to Stem Migration From South (President News Service.) LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept. 11. Southern newspapers are making every effort to stem the tide of Negro migration from the South to northern cities. The Louisville Courier-Journal publishes the following editorial under the caption of "The Negroes Warned." The city authorities of Cleveland, through the Ohio Superintendent of Employment, have served notice that no more work seekers are wanted in that city. Third is already there, they say, a man for every job. This is directed especially to the southern Negroes, who for months have been pouring into Cleveland, as they have been pouring into other cities of the North. Cleveland has no work for them; does not want them; and if they continue to flock there it will be at their peril. And in this respect Cleveland is not alone among the cities which have been attracting the migration of the southern blacks. "It it was different a few months ago. There was a scarcity of labor in some of the manufacturing industries; advertising campaigns were conducted in the South; eloquent agents were sent there to lure the Negroes northward. So successful were these efforts that whatever labor markets there may have been across the Ohio have been glutted. And sounds a timely warning, and the Negroes would do well to heed it. Winter is coming. They had better stay on the sunny side of the river, where they have managed to live herelofo and where at least they know what to expect." Too Much Bible in District Schools (Crusader Service.) NEW HAVEN, Conn., Sept. 11. —Less Bible and more psychology, sociology and economics in the courses given by the theological schools is urged in a report on "Recruiting the Ministry." to be presented by a committee of the Unitarian Layman's League at the annual convention here. "Without unduly minimizing the desirability of a reasonable knowledge of the Old and New Testament," the report states, "we should hold upon these practical subjects to which, up to the present; the least time has been devoted." "We are convinced that any theological training by any school should be in conjunction with courses given in the universities of the higher type; that the main stress should be laid upon the study of sociology, political economy, political science, psychology and world history, and that the so-called biblical-theological training should supplement this work rather than make work of this nature supplement biblical-theological training." RUSH MEMORIAL The return of the parishioners of this church to the city was strongly emphasised by the large attendance at the eleven o'clock services last Sunday morning. The congregation assembled early and showed great interest in the services fed. Their wishs were highly gratified, for when Dr. Oliver introduced the speaker, Dr. J. W. E. Bowen, Ph. D., LL.D, the facial expressions indicated that all were sure of being spiritually satisfied. Dr. Bowen spoke from Acts 1, verses 7 and 8. His discourse was very clear and technical in every sense of the word. After having listened to him, no one who is serving God could think of turning back, sad surely those out of Christ must think more seriously of God's goodness. Dr. Bowen is vice-pres, of Gammon Theological Seminary, and he is highly respected by the leaders all of the leading men of the race as one of our born leaders. At the eight o'clock services, Dr. Oliver preached to an enthusiastic audience from St. John 10: 18. Subject: "Power to Rise Again." The speaker gave illustrations of man's power—the development of the times, etc., because that old Christ had the power to face death and at the given time pick up His life again. There is no doubt but that Rush Church will continue to hold its own, for the work which Dr. Oliver has done during his short stay proves what he can do if permitted to remain. The entire membership is with him, and all plans made by him are being perfected. The church assessment renovation must be done in order to entertain the Annual Conference convening there next year. The Fall Rally proceeds will be used in that direction. ABYSSINIAN BAPTIST The main auditorium was crowded to the limit last Sunday morning and full again Sunday evening.

Bowen, vice-president of Gammon Theological Seminary, Atlanta, A. F., took next Sunday morning and the pastor delivered the annual service in the evening to the sisters from the various churches in Greater New York.

He pleaded for united support from all of the members and friends that the work might continue without any interruption from lack of finance, the management, the choir rendered a selection. The sermon was prescheduled by the Bishop. He announced his last from Psalm 23:8. "The Lord is my Shepherd. I shall not want." The theme of his discourse was "The Wise Choices."

And great as this calamity is, nothing like as bad as was at first beaten wealthy Negroes have joined; the other American citizens and organizers wealth in rushing relief to her states and towns.

OUR HEARTS GO OUT IN SYMPATHY to the great Japanese nation at this time when a great calamity has been visited upon it. And great as this calamity is, it is nothing like as bad as was at first believed. Already wealthy Negroes have joined with the other American citizens and organizations of wealth in rushing relief to her stricken cities and towns. This is as it should be and is in keeping with the teachings of Christ, despite the fact that the American Government and the State of California do not accord the Japanese the same rights and privileges accorded peoples of lighter hue who come to our shores. THE SAME GOD who made the Negro and the Caucasian made the Japanese. He moves; even the world, which causes earthquakes, in mysterious ways. We are all His creatures—Negro, Caucasian and Japanese. But, it is only in times of adversity that we realize this. The world needs Japan and Japan now needs the sympathy and help of the world. A Piece of Paper HERE is a story-from a recent issue of the New York Sun and Globe, owned by super-Republican Frank A. M. which reads like a dime novel. The staged in this manner: HERE is a story-from a recent issue of the New York Sun and Globe, owned by that super-Republican Frank A. Munsey, which reads like a dime novel. The story is headed in this manner: NEGROES ATTACK DETECTIVES ON POLICY CRUSADE Beaten Down and Kicked by His Prisoner, Ertola Beaten Down and Kicked by His Prisoner, Ertola Shoots Him HIS PARTNER STANDS OFF MOB Police Reserves Arrive Just in Time to Save Both— Negro May Die THE STORY THEN PROCEEDS: "Standing over the prostrate body of a fellow detective, who had been beaten and kicked by a mob of enraged Negroes, Detective Arthur Cruise today held back 200 men and women with swinging blackjack until aid from the West 135th Street Station reached him." ENOUGH for the story, which is not at all borne out by eye-witnesses to the affair, who state that the detective was kicked only by the man he was attempting to place under arrest, and that the crowd collected to see what was going on. The man was wrong in resisting the arrest and may pay with his life for his indiscretion. But what crime had he committed? According to the detectives' own statements, they had been sent up from the Third Inspection District to round up policy, or number, players. Arriving at Eighth Avenue and 137th Street they saw a man with a piece of paper in his hand, and for no other reason Detective Ertola bounded from the police automobile and attempted to place the man under arrest. THERE ARE ANY NUMBER OF KINDS of paper a man may have in his hand and we do not believe that the police are justified in placing a man under arrest simply because he has a piece of paper in his hand. Now, the Sun and Globe makes it appear that the detectives accomplished a great feat by arresting a man armed only with a piece of paper, and that 200 men and women tried to prevent the arrest. Such a story is unfair to the readers of the Sun and Globe in Harlem; it is unfair to its read- ers who are so far removed that they are compelled to take the story on its face value: it is unfair to the two detectives, in that it places a halo around their heads for arresting a man with a piece of paper at a time when robberies and burglaries are so numerous that a large number of them are not given out to the press, and it is unfair to the indiscreet man who may pay dearly for resisting the arrest by an officer of the law. But the story has a deeper significance, and it is here that we call upon the Sun and Globe to help us. WHY IS THE POLICE DEPARTMENT so vigilant in arresting number players, especially when it knows full well that practically all of them are dismissed when arraigned in court? Playing these numbers causes few murders, suicides, and cases of insanity. Wouldn't it be much better if the same vigilance was shown in running down robbers, burglars and murderers? On the very same day daily newspapers carried an account of this affair most of them printed an item telling of the release of policy players when arraigned in court. Are these arrests made for purposes of extortion and graft? THE SUN AND GLOBE covers all of the courts in the city, and, if Mr. Munsey doubts the statement that most of these cases are dismissed in court, let him ask any one of his many court reporters. Yet, there certainly must be some reason for making these arrests. WHAT IS IT? Patience Ceases together the other de- vision to resist the hardlands of Harlem people of this com- titutionately higher titutions of the city e and repairs.

CUSSED BY CONTEMPO A FEW WOMEN gathered themselves together the other day and formed an organization to resist the constant gouging of the landlords of Harlem. According to them the people of this community are paying a proportionately higher rent than is paid in other sections of the city and getting less in service and repairs. They even go so far as to state that the colored landlord is harder on his own people than the white landlord. This is a serious charge. It ought to bring tears to our eyes, because it is all too true. Instead of making it possible for us as a people to take pride in the realty holdings of members of our race, we are, in too many instances, forced to look upon our landlords as we would look upon a burglar or a Shylock, who is not even content with his pound of flesh. IN LOOKING OVER the long list of landlords hailed into court for tenement house law violations, failure to provide heat and hot water, or to make repairs, there are very few from this section of Harlem; which proves that the citizens here are patient and long-suffering. We appeal to the landlords, white and black, to meet this patient Negro tenant half-way, before his patience is exhausted. Ere the long winter sets in, put your houses in repair. Keep them in repair. If you collect a rental which calls for steam heat, make some effort to live up to your agreement. THE WOMEN are organizing against you. They do not mean to let you get away with the things you got away with last year. EXPRESSED BY CONTEMPCRARIES Monkey Business (From the Chicago Whip) In accordance with the custom and with no other apparent motive in mind, the National Negro Business League met recently in annual convention and elected as its president one Robert Rusea Moton, otherwise known as the principal of Tennessee Normal and Industrial Institute. The election of Moton, who is in ill favor among his own people because of his lack of essential manhood qualities in general and because of his stand on the Jim Crow government hospital in particular, proves and adds to the proof that the "National Negro Business League" is engaged in "monkey business." in accordance with a apparent motive in my League; met recently as its presided earliest known as the Industrial Insti do is ill favor an this lack of essential i because of his st beautiful in earl dance with the custom and the positive in mind, the National Met recently in annual concerts his president one Robert I. Known as the principal of The Industrial Institute. The sleek ill favor among his own perp of essential manhood quality of his stand on the Jimical in particular process are What has Moton done during the last year to warrant his election to such an "exalted honor"? He journeyed to Washington on the Lincoln celebration occasion addressed the audience while his man segregated before his eyes and did not have moral courage to stand in his place. He journeyed to Ireland, across the sea, and stated that the white Americans treated the black people with due courtesy and that the southerners were their best friends. And to climax his record for re-election, he double-crossed his people by advocating a white personnel at a black hospital. Upon this record Moton was re-elected president of the business league. It seems that the black race has been engaged in the monkey business too long and that it has been persuaded by monkey influences long enough. It is time for the business league to function as an intelligent body. If it can do nothing toward improving upon our economic and business status, if it cannot become a clearing house for ideas, if it cannot deal in causes and effects and deliberate intelligently upon the vital problems of the day, it should be blasted "to pieces" and—reorganised. Moton's election proves that the league is engaged primarily in monkey business and twenty-three much business should digest the black people. If the league runs business and if its president follows in his past train, it is regretfully to be concluded that the National Negro Business League and its president, Mr. "Ram Robert" Moton, will be engaged in the monkey business during the next year. "FROM 'SUPERMAN' TO MAN" "FROM 'SUPERMAN' TO MAN" Seventh Installment DIXON continued: "Winwood Reade said that the Negroes on the West Coast admired a very black skin more than one of a lighter tint. Aghebi, a West African scientist, says, in his paper before the Races Congress (here Dixon consulted his note book): 'The unsophisticated African entertains an aversion to white people, and when on accidentally or unexpectedly meeting a white man, he turns or takes to his heels, it is because he feels that he has come upon some unusual or unearthly creature, some hobgoblin or ghost or sprite, and that an aquiline nose, scant lips and cat-like eyes afflict him.' "Dan Crawford, the famous African missionary, tells of an instance where a number of Negro women in Central Africa, on seeing a white man for the first time, nearly broke down a doorway in their frantic haste to escape. The Yoruba word for white man is not complimentary. It means "peeled man". Stanley, the explorer, said that when he returned from the wilds of Africa he found the complexion of Europeans ghastly, 'after so long caging on rich black and richer bronze." The brakeman, passing by, peered into the room, but only greeted Dixon and went on. When he was gone Dixon continued: "Oriental (des of beauty are also different from ours. The Japanese do not like the noses and eyes of the Caucasian, which happen to be the very parts of Japanese physiognomy the Caucasian likes least. Now, as Von Luosan aks. 'Which of these races is right, since both are highly artistic.'" "But," protested the senator, rather lamely, "since the white race is the superi- most developed—its standard of beauty ought to be accepted as the universal one." Dixon noted with satisfaction the other's hesitation at the word "superior." He responded: "Environment is largely responsible for facial contour. People's subjected to the beneficial influences of science and art have, according to the standard of civilised man, more refined features and are consequently more beautiful than so-called savages. "But facial beauty is only one side of the story. Venus and Apollo, as you will remember, are as famous for their beauty of bodily outline as for their facial contour, perhaps more beautiful beauty certain primitive tribes easily excel the white man. The Zulus, a black people, are the successors of the ancient Greeks in beauty of physique. J. H. Balmer, explorer and lecturer, says; "The Zulu are the physical superiors of other races. A male Zulu has the strength, endurance and body of a prize fighter in the pink of condition. Their shoulders are broad, their cheeks deep, their walsis slim. Their women are the strongest females propagated." wood Reade admired a very black lighter tint. Aghebi, a West paper before the Babi Conhis note book): "The unis an aversion to white peooy or unexpectedly meeting a to his heels, it is because he some unusual or unearthly ghost or sprite, and that an at-like eyes afflict him." ideas of beauty are purely individual, the standard of nobility of soul is universal. Character, then, should be the standard by which to judge human beings. After all, man is not like cattle which we rear for appearance's sake. I think that any face lift up by right living and high ideals is beautiful regardless of contour." The passenger seemed agitated. He got up and again paced the room. After a few turns he sat down and drew deep inhalations from his cigarette, blowing out the smoke very slowly. He was marshalling in his mind all the many points regarding Negro inferiority. Suddenly, as if struck by an inspiration, he said triumphantly, "I can positively prove the Negro is inherently inferior. The Jews were slaves to the Egyptians who, according to you, were Negroes, for 430 years. 430 years longer than were the Negroes in America.

They shut off the heat or light or telephone service, sometimes one at a time, sometimes all at once. Accordingly, in 1920, the Legislature passed a statute making it a misdemeanor, punishable by imprisonment for not more than one year or by a fine of not more than $500, or both, for any landlord, willfully or intentionally, to fail to furnish water, light, heat, power, elevator or telephone service, to any occupant of a building or part thereof, in which such service was necessary to the proper or customary use of such building, or willfully or intentionally to interfere with the quiet enjoyment of leased premises. This statute was found not quite broad enough to be effective. In some cases where there was a willful failure to render these facilities, the landlord claimed the responsibility for this agent or employee, for whose offense he could not be held liable. One court held that the language of the statute said that water must be furnished, and that this did not necessarily mean but water. represent the North, South, East and West-Harrison D.

This status, which is section 2040 of the penal law, reads as follows: "Any lessor, agent, manager, superintendent or janitor of any building, or part thereof, the lease or rental agreement whereof by its term, expressed or implied, requires the furnishing of hot or cold water, heat, light, power, elevator service, telephone or any other service or facility to any occupant of said building, who willfully or intentionally falls to furnish such water, heat, light, power, elevator service, telephone service or other service or facility, at any time when the same are necessary to the proper or customary use of such building, or part thereof, or any lessor, agent, manager, superintendent or janitor who willfully and intentionally interferes with the quiet enjoyment of the leased premises by such occupant, is guilty of a misdemeanor." HAMPTON INSTITUTE CONFERS DEGREE HAMPTON, Va., Sept. 3.— An epoch-making event took place in Place Hall, Hampton Institute. Thursday evening, August 30, when the degree of Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Education was conferred upon each member of the first class to graduate from the new agricultural college course. Five young men started this course, and of the five four remained to the end. These four By J. A. ROGERS AUTHOR OF "Blood-Money" Feature Service.) based condition of the Negro? No? Why? You also said that the Irish were slaves in New England, didn't you? Well, today these former slaves dominate the United States politically. Here's where the inferiority comes in. There are twelve million Negroes in the United States—a greater number than the population of Canada, greater than the combined population of Holland and Switzerland—and yet there is not a single Negro in any position of political importance in this country. A few, it is true, hold federal positions—mostly unimportant, however. If the Negro were not an inferior would he allow himself to be thus classified?" "I will first answer your question about the Jaws. When they emerged from slavery they had, according to their Bible, their Jehovah to perform wondrous miracles (or them, feeding them free, capturing cities, etc., didn't they? The Negro started with nothing and has had to fight his own battle every inch of the way. "Again the Negro inferior position isn't due to inferiority of human variety, but to inferiority of numbers." "To inter-racial jealousy, you mean; the surest sign of a consciousness of inferiority among any people. Race prejudice only hurts those who have a consciousness of their racial inferiority. The Negro can't trust himself. He hates to associate with his own people." "To Be Continued Next Week" Talks A J.

These four young men already have excellent positions upon which they will enter at once. The first becomes a teacher of agriculture in the State Normal College of Ellington, the second a teacher of vocational agriculture in a high school in Marion, Ark.; the third a teacher of agriculture in Langston University, Langton, Oka; and the fourth will become a farm demonstration agent under the Federal Government in Virginia. For more than half a century Hampton Institute had been known as a secondary school, and when it was proposed to add courses of college grade some doubted whether such a thing would actually be done. The conferring of degrees has conclusively answered all such doubts. Hampton Institute has now taken its place among institutions of college grade. LIBRARY NOTES In connection with the Art Exhibit, which is open daily, except Sunday, from 9 A. M. to 9 P. M., a collection of books on "Art Appreciation" has been formed. This includes histories of art, special studies of American art and sculpture, and books on modern tendencies in art, such as Eddy's "Cubists and Post-ImPRESSIONism." Meier-Graffe's "Modern Art" and Salamani's "Modern Woodcuts and Lithographs." Any of these books may be borrowed for home use. Do you like detective stories? You will find many good ones here—"Sherlock Holmes," of course, and J. S. Pfeiffer's latest, as well as "Whose Body?" by Dorothy Sayers, which The Nation describes as "quite the most delightful, jolliest crime story of recent memory." Keeping Fit:- By E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M.D. The Prevention of Simple Goiter GOITER is an enlargement of the thyroid gland, which is situated in the anterior portion of the neck. This gland is one of the ductless glands and has a potent effect upon the metabolism and proper physiological function of the organs of the body. There are two main classes of goiter — simple goiter and exophthalmic goiter. The latter form of goiter is rare and very severe. It often kills unless the larger portion of the gland is removed by a surgical operation. Simple goiter, on the other hand, it not so dangerous, is more prevalent, causes an ugly swelling in the neck, and may develop into the dangerous and toxic form of goiter.

It has been proven that normally this gland manufactures a substance which is rich in iodin; this juice enters the cir- By MELVIN J. CHISUM Field Secretary, the National We are Press Association. Much is being said by the press of the nation anent the appointment of the Hon. C. Bascom Slemp as secretary to his Excellency the President; many reasons, good and had, wise and otherwise, are being given as to why Mr. Slemp was chosen. We hold no brief for the gentleman in question, but this much we do know, Bacom Slemp comes as near being a stateman as any man who has sat in the lower branch of Congress in the last twenty years, and we give it as our opinion, backed by an experience covering a quarter of a century in Washington, that it is reasonable to suppose that President Coolidge consulted that greatest living American stateman, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, and two other estimable gentlemen of the national Congress, who are natural friends of the President; Speaker of the House and leader of the Senate. It is fair to further assume that these gentlemen cut their heels together and decided to advise the President to choose as his secretary a man who held close acquaintance of all the members of the lower branch of Congress, and who has a thorough working knowledge of how things are done in the House. If the writer's guess is correct as to what happened in this premise, then no better man could have been chosen than Mr. Slepem. "We regret that Mr. Slepem has been proven to be one of the arch enemies of the colored Republicans of the country; we regret that Mr. Slepem has been one of the chief priests of illlywhiteism; but wise men change, and Mr. Slepem, being a wise man, may, and we hope he has, enjoyed a change of political religion To those who know the mettle of the new President as does the writer, we suffer no fears that Mr. Blem will run the President. We feel perfectly safe in saying that, whether Mr. Slemp changes his attitude toward colored apples, Mr. Blem's idade will run the Government while he is President, and unquestionably, too, the President will run the White House. culating blood and exerts a vitalizing influence upon the cells and plaques of the body. This gland, therefore, takes part in the defensive processes of the body; it has to do with the immunity of the body. In the process of repair, against the ravages of any infectious disease, such as pneumonia, diphtheria, scarlet fever and severe tonsillitis. The juice of this gland also exerts a vitalizing influence on the growth of the cells of the ovary and womb during the period of adolescence in girls and pregnancy in women. When, therefore, any disease or bacterial poison is present, or any extra growth or repair of cells is necessary, nature, through the sympathetic nervous system, cells upon the thyroid gland to an increased activity of its cells. If this increased activity continues beyond a certain length of time, the gland becomes enlarged and a gitter is formed. The main object in the treatment of golfer is to lessen this overactivity of the thyroid gland as soon as possible. If this is done early, then only a simple golfer results, which, under proper treatment, will soon resume its normal size. To do this, it is necessary to remove from the body any toxic or poisonous elements and to supplement the folium of the thyroid juice with iodin given internally in the proper amount. The first practical attempt to prevent golfer was done in the school of Akroat, O. from 1916 to 1930. The thyroid gland of every girl from the Fifth to the Twelfth Grade was examined. About 5,000 girls underwent this preventive measure of taking three grains of sodium iodine daily for two weeks each Spring and Fall. At the first examination 56 per cent of these girls had golfer to some degree. After taking the iodin treatment, 60 per cent of this number showed a disappearance of the golfer. Not one of those who was normal in the beginning of treatment developed golfer. There were hundreds of girls who refused to take this preventive treatment; among them, 27.6 per cent who had normal thyroid glands developed, finally, golers, and many of them rather large. This iodin treatment, then proved helpful, both as a preventive and also as a cure. This method of prevention for golfer in adolescent girls is now being used in Switzerland, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin. Among adolescent girls and pregnant women living in crowded cities, this iodin treatment should be used more often, and physicians should pay more attention to the possible and frequent development of early golfers before permanent fibrous and bursal changes in the gland coars.
