ROBBERY THWARTED Colorful News "Movies" BY THE CAMERAMAN Intersectional Amalgamation The white North and the white South are blending more and more each year, forgetting the great internal conflict of the sixties and the bleaching bones of Gettysburg, Antietam and Vicksburg when the Union was nearly torn asunder by the intersectional combat. It is good that friendship has taken the place of dissension in a nation which, as Lincoln said, could not endure half alave and half free; and it is good that this devout wish for an inseparable nation has been realized. Northern capital is being lavishly poured into the industrial and agricultural projects of the South. With more than one hundred and fifty million dollars invested in cotton woven, silk and cordage north of North Carolina now vies with Massachusetts. Birmingham steel is as carefully worked as is that of Pittsburgh. Northern inventions turn over southern soil. Southern students attend Yale, Harvard and Columbia; and Chicago and New York youth go to the leading universities of the South. These exchanges breed friendship, and in their continuation the one great fact becomes outstanding—the fact that the South is absorbing much of the North and the North is absorbing much of the South, including the all important factor in the life of the Negro, which is sentiment. Quite naturally the question arises as to just what kind of a balance will appear when it is struck. Which current will be the stronger in the tide of exchange? Will the customs of the Southland overbalance the tempered fairness and law enforcement which have long existed to a considerable degree in the Northland? Whether or no, there is a great big bet which the brethren have been overlooking during this pending transition between the white North and the white South. And that has been the failure to stimulate similarly friendly confidences within the race. North and South. Division lines in the majority group are being rapidly removed, and the brother. North and South must realize that in just a few more years his location will not amount, in importance, to an August zepbyr. In matters of national importance his problems will be the same in Georgia as they are in Massachusetts. Suspicion: —-sincere-ness. Friendship must prevail. The ballot must be secured for all; and respect and teamwork must be invoked intra-racially, from Florida to Michigan. The united front of the majority group must be met by a united front of the minority group; for eventually the Declaration of American independence is going to apply, without direct or indirect distinction, to all the peoples of America. The Japanese Move Southward A movement to place 60,000 thrifty Japanese farmers in the southland is reported as heading up in Crittenden and Mississippi Counties. State of Arkansas. It is said that a giant land corporation will buy several thousands of acres of land in the Arkansas delta region and colonize it with the little yellow men in an experiment to see whether or not they can do as much with Arkansas soil as they did in California and Washington. This prospective movement is southward of the Japanese hits the brothel of Arkansas right between the eyes for the following reason: Crittenden County has a total population of 29,369, of whom 24,650 or 84.1 per cent are Negroes. These Negroes operate 5,022 of the 5,496 farms of Crittenden County, of which they own 410, leaving 474 to the Arkansas whites, who own 148 of their group total. Farm land in Crittenden County is valued at $133.79 per acre. Inasmuch as cotton-raising is the chief activity of Crittenden County, an industry nominally carried forward by Negro labor since pre-Civil War days, the question arises as to whether or not the thrifty Japs can raise cotton. The little yellow man's most ardent enemies must admit that he has made good at everything he has ever tried, from making tracks to making battleships. At truck-kardening the Jap is a wizard, and at cotton-raising well, there is no reason to presume that he can't deliver. Mississippi County, Arkansas, with a population of 47,320, of whom 19,300 or 41.1 per cent are Negroes, presents a similar agricultural picture, with the odds even more wrongly not against the Negro farmer. That the Japanese are moving southward has a special significance to the brothems, in anuch as they are moving northward. The brother must watch his step, and not let go his land holdings and his abilities to master the soil left, the thrifty Japanese, all sorts some of the brother's American birthright. Northern capital, as never before, is flooding southern industry and agriculture. More northerners are taking vacations in Palm Beach and Miami than ever before, and more northerners are "doing" Broodway New York, and State Street, Chicago, than ever before. The Negro farmer, as well as the Negro factory hand, must closely watch the exchange of these later leather goods and needles, and to it OUT-OF-TOWN AGENTS WANTED EVERYWHERE Realtor Held For Larceny; Cabaret Owner Goes Edward Bolling Edward Bolling Held for Larceny Further Hearing in Case Scheduled for Tomorrow in Heights Court Edward H. Bolling, 31. 124 West 130th street, real estate dealer, was held in $1,000 bail for a hearing on March 19 charged with the larceny of $100 from Isaac Hawkins, 253 West 130th street, laborer. Hawkins, in his complaint, alleges that Bolling represented himself as the agent for the property at 25-27 West 134th street and that he gave him the $100 to bind the lease of it. When he went with the remainder of the money to take possession of the place he said that he learned from John Royall, owner, that the place had already been leased. He demanded the return of money and Bolling, he said, took in the receipt and gave him a check on the Chelsea Bank. The bank failed to honor the check. Hawkins said that he spoke to Bolling about it and the latter assured him that there must have been a mistake as he had over $1,000 in the bank. He then presented the check again to the real estate dealer. Bolling refused to make payment. Cullum Goes Free in Lake Killing Accused of the killing of Frank Lake, 4460 Third avenue, on September 11, Harold Cullum, 22, 123 West 42d street, white, was found not guilty of manslaughter by a jury in the Bronx County Court. Both men had been drinking in a hootch joint on Third avenue when a quarrel ensued. They were ordered to leave the place and on the sidewalk Cullum is said to have struck Lake, causing him to fall. Lake's head struck the curb, resulting in a fractured skull. Cullum pleaded self-defense. He said that Lake had reached for his hip pocket and, taking no chances, he struck him with his fist.

BERNARR MACFADDEN Editor of the Daily Graphic, Physical Culture other publications, who will address the F Calvary Independent Methodist Church, Edgecombe Ave., Sunday afternoon, at four Sister Harrell and Her Souls Crew Leave but Late Editor of the Daily Graphic, Physical Culture and several other publications, who will address the Forum of the Mt. Calvary Independent Methodist Church, 140th St. and Edgecombe Ave., Sunday afternoon, at four o'clock. Sister Harrell and Her Soul-Saving Crew Leave but Later Return Following Expose of Methods by The Amsterdam News Last Week She Does Not Seem to Be Such a Big Attraction. Following the account of her activities in the last issue of The Amsterdam News, Sister Mabel Harrell, former vaudevillian, flitted with her crew of soul-savers and healers for parts unknown, but returned later in the week. On Sunday afternoon she announced that she had come to stay for several weeks, and declared that she might even stay in Harlem permanently. Thursday night, when a reporter called at the Commonwealth Casino, he found a hundred or more of her faithful followers seeking entrance and wondering at the cause for her sudden departure. All of her signs were also gone from the building. Many of the disappointed ones expressed themselves in bitter terms for the exposure of The Amsterdam News, declaring their firm belief in God and His power to heal through Sister Harrell. As was said, the great majority of those who visit her revival meetings were of a low order of intelligence, if --- Physical Culture and several address the Forum of the Mt. Podist Church, 140th St. and earmoon, at four o'clock. Her Soul-Saving but Later Return indeed the word intelligence could be used. Sister Harrell very skilfully played upon their feelings by telling them that "the better class" despised them, but that in their firm belief in God and His power to heal, they were superior to the educated classes. She is a white woman and also brought in the color issue, telling them of her alleged persecution in the South because she insisted on taking the Word of God among colored people. Accompanying her in her meetings were her husband, her daughter and son. The latter put pep in the meetings by his jazzy renderings of the hymns. Rev Madden, a colored preacher of St. Louis, Mo., is her chief aide. Judge Samuel L. Levine of the Manhattan Children's Court will address the Parents' & Teachers Association of P. S. 119, 123d street, near Eighth avenue, Thursday (to-morrow) evening at 8 P. M. Admission is free. DETECTIVES DIVORGES, INVESTIGATIONS, Etc. BOULIN DETECTIVE AGENCY 130 East 8th Street, N. Morton, IL 60901 THE NEW YORK Judge Peeved at 2nd Degree Verdict for Highway Robbery When a jury in the Richmond County Court at St. George, Staten Island, Monday afternoon returned a verdict of assault in the second degree against Ellijah Barrett, of New Brighton, indicted for robbery in the first degree. County Judge J. Harry Tiernan told the jurors their verdict was outrageous and contrary to the evidence. Then he turned to the prisoner and, after sentencing him to serve from two and a half to five years in Sing Sing, told him he was lucky the jury had been so lenient. "Had you committed this crime in your native State," the Judge said "you would not even had a trial. You would have been tied to a stake and burned to death." Barrett was convicted of holding up Mrs. Odonelh Peters of 63 Portland Place, New Brighton, on the night of Feb. 22 last. Whon she delayed in according to his demand for money he struck her over the head with a milk bottle. Women Collide, Fight Ensues The question as to which had bumped the other first resulted in a lively scrap at 125th street and Eighth avenue Saturday, when Mrs. Louis Dore, 28. 270 West 132d street, and Miss Margaret Mahoney, white, 21. 20 West 137th street, came in contact as the former was getting off and the latter was getting on a surface car. After a calling of names and other angry accusations had passed between the two, it is alleged that Mrs. Dore reached down, slipped off one of her shoes and banged Miss Mahoney on the head with the heel. Policeman Charles Dorfman of the West 123d street precinct, who was in his vicinity, arrested Mrs. Dora and took her to the Heights Court. Miss Mahoney, however, failed to appear when the case was called and Magistrate Silberman dismissed the defendant. Prisoners Escape From Jail 2nd Time TRENTON, March 16.—Prying open a cell door, breaking through a plaster ceiling and knocking a hole in the slate roof, three more prisoners escaped from the Mercer County Workhouse at Moore's Station Thursday night. The escapes were not discovered until 6 o'clock Friday morning, when day guards went on duty. As a result of the jail break John Connell and Wilson Leming, guards, have been suspended pending an investigation by Warden Walter Firth. Two of the escaped prisoners, Charles Craft and Harry West, are the same men who broke out of the institution last January but were later captured in Philadelphia. All are colored. The three were captured Saturday in a cellar of a house on the Brunwick plike near Clarksville. LAD WHO MURDERED NEGRO CONVICTED BAVANNAH, March 16—Lewis Lightfoot, white, 18 years old, was convicted in the Superior Court here last week of the murder of Eddie Sharp. He was sentenced to life imprisonment in the penitentiary. This is the first time to many years, properly in the memory of local court officers, when a white man was convicted of the murder of a Negro. Through a regretted error in the headline of the last issue it was stated that the Rev. William D. Browder, 12 West 123rd street, was held for conductor a square hall without a house. Rev. Browder also says that he has no job but is a ministerry. PATROLMAN GETS THREE YEARS FOR ASSAULT PATROLMAN GETS THREE YEARS FOR ASSAULT Walter J. Hill Found Guilty by Jury in Special Sessions of Beating Two White Men—In Trouble Many Times. Found guilty of second degree assault by a jury before Judge Talley in General Sessions, Walter J. Hill, patrolman, attached to the West 135th Street Station, was sent to the penitentiary for a maximum term of three years. Hill's record was against him, also. He entered the police force in July, 1923, and up to the time of his arrest had been disciplined four times, and was on probation as the result of his wife's charges in the Domestic Relations Court. In addition, he had been held, prior to his entering the Police Department, on a charge of burglary, which had been dismissed by the Grand Jury. Hill's accusers were Frank J. Roulston and Louis J. Riley, both white, who were badly beaten about the head, it is alleged, by Hill, following a near-collision of a car in which they were riding with another driven by Lloyd Bernard, laundryman, 40 West 136th street, on December 11. Hill, who was on sick leave at the time, was in a nearby restaurant and, on hearing the altercation, rushed out. After firing several shots he chased the two complainants into a halfway at Seventh avenue and 123d street, where the alleged beating was administered. Much bitterness prevailed during the trial between Assistant District Attorney Unger and Leonard A. Sutikin, attorney for Hill. During Unger's summation he referred to Hill as "this brassier liar." Sutikin was immediately on his feet. "I move for a material," he said, "on the ground that that remark is designedly prejudicial and inflammatory." Judge Talley denied the motion, but warned Unger to use some other phrase. Sutikin also cut his summation short when Judge Talley suggested that he confine himself strictly to the case. He threw down his books and said: "Gentlemen of the jury, I submit my case to you." Hill's conviction automatically bars his return to the police department. The ex-patrolman called several character witnesses, among them former Alderman George W. Harris and Arthur F. Sullivan. Patrolmen John J. Casey and George Ericksen and Lloyd Bernard, also held in connection with the alleged assault, will next be placed on trial. WASHINGTON, D. C., March 16. —W. H. H. Hart, founder of Harvard Law School and for 36 years professor of criminal law at that institution, declared Saturday before the local branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association that Marion Curvey had been wrongly incarcerated and with proper legal procedure, could be released from prison within a forfeiture. 16 PAGES: Complete in Two Bindings 3c. IN GREATER NEW YORK ELSEWHERE 5c Says Officer and Not He Became Disorderly Monday in Cabaret. Cornelius Charity, real estate dealer, 208 West 140th street, and president of the Palace Garden Amusement Company, 2385 Seventh avenue, was found not guilty of disorderly conduct and discharged by Magistrate Barrett in the Heights Court Monday morning when arraigned by Officer Virnce White, of the 15th Division. Officer White said that he entered the Palace Garden at 2 A.M., Monday morning, and that he saw two men and two women drinking at a table with a bottle of whiskey before them. When he remonstrated with Charity about permitting liquor in the place, he said that Charity used abusive language to him. Charity pleaded not guilty. He said that it was White who had misused information in the treat of his wife and that he had checked him for that. The defendant further alleged that the trouble arose because he insisted on charging White and the other three officers for some drinks they had ordered. Collected $60 With Child's Squirt Gum When John Mayo, Filipino, of Edgeport, N. Y., failed to get $60 for which he had bargained with Edward Bailey, his manager, for a fight at the Manhattan Casino. Mayo started out to collect with a gun. And he collected, too, for Bailey, in a fright, handed him over the money, and then called a cop. Mayo played safe, however, for while the weapon had a most dangerous look, it turned out to be only a child's squirt gun. Mayo was discharged by Magistrate Barrett, who told him that he had better be careful or he would be sent back to the Philippine Islands. Cop Shoots Man In Heel After Chase When Frank Miller, 35 West 131st street, accused of drug peddling, was shot by Special Officer Virnack while attempting to escape, he fell on the steps of Under-taker Strerrett. Sterrett's assistants rushed out, but Miller was only shot in the heel. According to Officer White, he saw Miller on 143d street acting suspiciously. He followed him and at last stopped him. Miller ran away and after chasing him through 134th street, the officer fired two shots in the air. The third shot brought him to a stop. Miller, it is said, had two packages of cocaine. He is at present a prisoner in Harlem Hospital. A sentence of 30 days in the workhouse was imposed on Edward Morgan, 26, 844 Rogers place, by Magistrate Gladsmayer. Morgan was charged by Satellite Pole, a tenant, with using abusive language toward her 11-year-old daughter. Morgan pleaded not guilty and said that he had only gone to the apartment to collect money for cleaning windows. He had a previous conviction. MRS. GALLIE EVANS GETS SUSPENDED SENTENCE The junction of Special Roads gave a suspended sentence to Mrs. Sallie Brown, 28, 169 West 123rd street, when arraigned by the Children Society for permitting Leah, her 18-year-old son, to dance with the Club Alabam, at 219 West 46th street. READY WIT OF COLORED MAN SAVES $1,000,000 James Stephens, Building Superintendent of Provident Loan Society Thwarts Attempted Ribery of Vault. The ready wit of James Stephens, superintendent of the building in which is located the Bronx branch of the Provident Loan Society of New York — the world's greatest pawnshop—has probably saved the Society $1,000,000. Early Sunday morning Stephens was entering the part of the building in which the vault is, when he noticed four men following him. Instantly he ran inside and examined the door. Looking at the vanit, Stephens found that the doors had been damaged. Nearby he found acetylene torches, burglar tools, and a cell of rope. It appears that the men had been trying to break into the vanit when a fire engine that had come in response to an alarm from a nearby building had triggered them temporarily away. After the engine had left, the burglaries were about to return to their job, when Stephens prompt action barred their entering again. Three of the outer doors of the vanit had already been burst through. The burglaries had entered in the first instance through the skylight trapdoor and had made their way to the first floor. It is believed that they fed the first time because they thought that it was the smoke from their own torches that had brought out the fire engine. The rope, it is suspected, was to tie Stephens when he came on his rounda. J. A. DAVIS TAKEN BY JERSEY POLICE NEWARK, N. J., March 14—Jefferson A. Davis, realtor, of $99 Halsey street, was arrested by Detectives Sweeney and Ryan, of police headquarters, last night, following a search by Newark and Hackensack police since Dec. 4. On that day police were told, he misappropriated $500 in a transaction with Clarence Gallerine, of New Milford. Late yesterday a young lady who said she was Davis' secretary told Detective Sweeney she had been given a worthless check by Davis in payment for her services as monographer. A description she gave tailed with that of the man sought, and several hours later Davis was arrested. He was booked at police headquarters on a charge of false pretence, and turned over to Hackensack police. ERNEST MIMMS GETS STAY OF EXECUTION Warden Lawes of Sing Sing Prison has received a notice of appeal of the death sentence of Neet Mimms, which automatically stays his execution until the Court of Appeals either informs the sentence or grants a new trial. Minna, who has been in the Sing Sing death home only a week, was convicted in the Bronx of slapping Detective Hagen of New York. The war settlement is due in the electric chair in April.

RHINELANDER SCORES "400" "Leonard Knew All About My Family," Says Mrs. Rhinelander, Scorning Social Registry Entry "I don't want my name in that book," she said. "I don't want to be one of the 400. I want my man—my man!" said Mrs. Allie Beatrice Jones Rhinelander, in an interview recently, and continued: "I didn't marry Leonard to get into any book; I married him because I loved him. If the Social Register were to continue my name year after year, would that add to my happiness? "I do love him, and he loves me." "He used to call me 'Ma,' broke in Mrs. Jones, the colored mother of Mrs. Rhinelander. "And he used to call me dad," said Mr. Jones. "Leonard liked our cooking," said Mrs. Rhinelander. "Every night he'd dry the dishes while I washed them. We were so Happy I don't want to be in society. Even if Leonard and I were living together now we wouldn't want to be considered 'society.'

Dr. McCoum has been passing the Winter in the North in the interest of the endowment drive, and in his address he will tell of the progress that has been made up to the present. The drive will continue throughout this month, and perhaps no campaign relating to the education of the colored people of this country has attracted such widespread attention from prominent men and women of the nation. The recent gift of $1,000,000 by John D. Rockefeller Jr. was one of the notable events of the campaign, and brought the amount raised up to date to $5,533,000; $1,575,000 is still to be raised to meet the conditional gift of $2,000,000 from George Eastman, the million-dollar bookmaker of Rochester. N. Y. Stephen S. Hardness contributed $100,000 at a meeting Friday. Robert Told Lincoln, son of Abraham Lincoln, has taken a keen interest in the campaign and has sent a substantial subscription to the endowment committee. The colored people of Harlem are taking a lead in the campaign, and the associations of Hampton and Tuskegee graduates have pledged liberal contributions to the fund. Prof. Warren Lazen, who has been a member of the faculty of Tuskegee for forty-three years, is gone down in Alabama with Booker T. Washington shortly after their graduation from Hampton, has come to New York to bring the matter to the attention of the graduates and former students of Tuskegee and Hampton, and to organize a campaigned effort to reward people to assist in the drive.

Reports Marked Progress in Haiti American High Commissioner Tells of Budget and Modern Farming A balanced government budget has recently become a fact in Haiti, according to Brig. Gen. John H. Russell, U. S. M. C. American High Commissioner to that republic, who sailed recently for his post as Panama Jiner General W. C. Dergas. General Russell, who has just made his semi-annual report at Washington will lay on May 25 at Port-au-Prince the cornerstone of a College of Agriculture established by the Service Technique of the island government. He said that 36 students in a class of 50 at the college passed their last examinations with high credit. The others were deficient because of hookworm, which soon may be eradicated by "the excellent work of the International Health Board of the Rockefeller Foundation." The students are the sons of Haitian peasants. While the peasants still use their machetes in farming, according to General Russell, educational work is leading up to the introduction of modern farming implements. The Service Technique recently sent a shipload of fine livestock for breeding purposes from Texas to Haiti. "The cows are to be distributed to those peasants who seem most intelligent," the general said. "The first call becomes the property of the peasant; the second goes to the government; the third to the peasant, and the fourth to the govern- MODERATE FEES CONVENIENT PAYMENTS most. The fifth calf becomes the property of the peasant and at the same time the cow. We expect to put stock-raising soon on a fairly sound basis. "The peasants now have the services of a corps of experts of the Service Technique. They include botanists, veterinarians and animal husbandrymen, entomologists, pathologists, soil chemists, agronomists and foresters. "We are considering now a project to irrigate between 80,000 and 100,000 acres of good plains land. We have 700 miles of good roads which daily augment the peace and prosperity of the island. A general军医 of 2,600 men with 30 native officers is exceedingly efficient. And Haiti acknowledges her duty to mariners by maintaining 10 or more lighthouses. "Haiti last year started redeeming bonds in advance of maturity, thereby saving much to the taxpayer, and she turns the fiscal year with more than $1,000,000 in the treasury. "All she needs is a little more attention from the United States. Tourists will find excellent steamship service from New York to Port-au-Prince, a tour and one-half day run, almost entirely through tropical waters. With a few more hotels to accommodate an increase in tourists. Haiti will be found to have everything in her favor." Strange Tale Told by Girl Wife Says She Was Sold to Colored Man in France Before Coming to U. S. CHICAGO, March 16. A child wife unfolded a heart gripping account here of how she was spirited away from her home in Poland, sold into slavery and finally brought to America. She is Mrs. Rose Kamienny, the wife of Joseph Kamienny, from whom she is seeking a divorce. When fifteen years old, according to the girl's story, Kamienny, attracted by her youth and beauty, induced her to accompany him from her home in Poland upon the pretext that he would bring her to America. Instead, she charges, he took her to France, where he sold her to a French colonial. Feligning insanity she escaped from her purchaser and the authorities turned, her back to Kamienny. He took her back to her old home in Poland. She was about to become a mother. Her relatives wink. Bobe Brázsiný, compelled Kamienny to marry her; that was in 1923. In August of the following year the girl and her family came to America. They found a home in Chicago. A little later Kennyfenn, the husband, appeared. He hunted up his wife and told her he had obtained a place as a doctor in the Cook County Hospital and that he had a contract to write for a Jewish newspaper. She consented to live with him but when she gave up her job, she charges, he attempted to kill the baby and later attempted to strangle her to death with a towel. Then she decided to get a divorce. The case will be heard before Judge Joseph Sabath.

The jazz parties, the flamers, the cake-eaters, the slang, the life in the tearrooms and cabarots, and the yynchion of the growing generation are all pictured ably and entertainingly. Of particular interest is the life of "the hell-bound pace-setters of the younger generation," known as cake-eaters and flappers. Writing of the loves of "Perry Lannont, son of a dark avenue millionaire," Ljaccomb says. Pauline was his latest girl. She belonged in that graveless trade of girls and women who would take a fling at anything, regardless of the consequences, which were站到follow in its wake, and repent at leisure. She was only nineteen years old, but the sophisticated look in her autumn eyes made her appear much older than she really was in age and experience. Pauline wasn't what you would term a humely looking woman nor a lovely one. But, by painting and powdering her face up, she had become a treat for sore peepers. Pauline was resting in Percy's lap, with her legs shamelessly crossed at the knuckle, her ravened hand reclining on his shoulder and her arms encircling his neck. "Percy, darling, I love you with all my heart and soul," breathed Pauline rapturously, her lips on his. "And I love you, Pauline dear," murmured Pauline blessfully, as he ardently returned her ocuation. "By the way Pauline, what time was it when you arrived from the petting party held at my house last Saturday night?" asked Percy anxiously. "About half-past five in the morning," announced Pauline aptly. "Did your old man have anything to say to you when you came in?" asked Percy uncoagingly. "Bet your boots he had something to infer to me," went on Pauline smoothly. "He started to revile me for my tardy hours; but I pulled the sob stuff on him and he felt ashamed of himself for speaking so harshly to me." "Pauline. I trust you and the rest of the girls had a pleasant time at my petting party." "It may have been pleasure to you boys. Perry, but it surely was pain to us girls." "What's troubling you now, Pauline."

"Please, baby darling, do be more explicit and elucidate to me what yellow dogs you are referring to." "Percy, sweetheart, I have reference to those obnoxious young Chinks who are always on deck for your petting parties and unconventional dances. Not a single one of them has an ounce of decency in him. They assume for granted, since they wear good clothes and carry plenty of money around with them that they are irresistible in our eyeight, and that we should be obsequious to their diabolical designs. For example, take Lee Fung. When I oblastically refused to dance the Chicago salinity with him, he straightway flew into tantrums and demanded to know what had accelerated my refusal. I demonstrated by telling him that it was charming enough for me to have to dance the Chicago salinity with young men of my own once, less than to have it cut with yellow dogs like him. Afterwards he——" "Pardon me, Pauline, but just why do you persist in calling our Mongolian merrymakers yellow dogs?"

Sulphur Clears Skin Right Up Sulphur Clears Skin Right Up Apply Sulphur as Told When Your Skin Breaks Out. Any breaking out of the skin, even fiery, litching eczema, can be quickly overcome by applying a little Mentho-Sulphur, declares a noted skin specialist. Because of its germ destroying properties, this sulphur preparation boils at once to soothe irritated skin and heal eruptions such as rash, pimples and ringworm. It seldom falls to remove the torment and disfigurement, and you do not have to wait for relief from embarrassment. Improvement quickly shows. Sufferers from skin trouble should obtain a small jar of Rowley Mentho-Sulphur from any good druggist and use it like cold cream. ee .

This announcement will serve as a rare morsel for the next five weeks as it carries the information of the long looked for date of THE REAL FASHION SHOW, and that date has been decided on as April 24, and the place the New Star Casino, where many years ago the same Utopia Neighborhood Club made its first bid for popular approval. Greater New York and New Jersey will have something to talk about until the night of the big event, and from what we can gather from Mrs. Daisy Reed and the other well known ladies assisting her, this affair is going to top all other efforts in this line made by the Utopia. "CHICK"SUGGS,MARRIEDMAN, FATHER OF TWO CHILDREN From the standard set by this organization one would be inclined to feel that the ladies have set themselves a hard task, an surpassing their previous efforts will be something which will call for every ounce of their energy, as what they have done in the past has never been rivaled in any part of the country. The 1924 show will be introduced by a historical style pageant, with 75 people in the cast. Mrs. Dalay C. Reed will be assisted in the staging of this gorgeous spectacle by Miss Amanda Kemp and Mr. Clarence Yates. Among those who will take part in the pageant are the members of the Debutantes Club, the Plerette Club, Miss Kemp's Dancing Girls, Mr. Clarence Yates' Dancing Class, and a double quartet from the Dexter Male Chorus, of which Mr. Wm. C. Elkins is conductor. A bewitching group of 50 mankins will show the latest in styles from New York and Paris. The brides' gown will be made by Madam Pearl Crawford Craft. The promenade gowns will be made by the following modistes from among Fifth avenue's foremost dress artists. Mesdames Catherine B. Heed, Julia Ready-Donawa. Pearl Crawford Craft. Mable Whiteman, Lulu Field-Blimey, Laura Rollock, Bertha Green, Antoinette Black, Minnie Summer Patterson, Clarice Gimnes, Harrison, Walker, Mary field, Clara Capehart Peggy Goven, Margaret Telfair, Ruth Cantwell, Francis Dear, McCray and Hatcher.

Started Boxing Career at Early Age-Father Once His Chief Sparring EDITOR'S NOTE — This is the second installment of the story of the life and battling career of "Chick" Buggs running exclusively in Amsterdan News through courtesy of the New Bedford, Mass. Times. Buggs is without a doubt the most prominent contender for the world's bantamweight title, new held by "Cannonball" Eddie Martin. SUGGS RING PARADOX Buggs is a ring paradox in many ways. Only 23 now, he can readily be classed as a young veteran; but younger; a youth in years and aged in particular experience. Still imbued with the suppleness of show, and love of battle that only youth can know. Suggs also has the invaluable knowledge gained during the slow, tedious process of fighting himself up from the ranks of the five dollar preliminary performers to the select circle of leaders in his class. Wise inore of the same, equipped with all the legitimate tricks of the trade, a seasoned ring general, yet possessed of all the fire and dash of a youth of his 23 years. Suggs stands today as the most dangerous of all those aspirants for Martin's honors. During the past two years during which he literally jumped to the top of the heap, Suggs has also had to carry the responsibilities of husband and father. He is happily married and takes as much pride in his home and his two fine youngsters as he does in his ring work. Both his son, Eddie Junior, and his daughter Tabellebli a year younger, are being educated New Bedford's public schools. There was a third child, but sesumula snatched him from the happy family circle two winters. Born in Carolinas A glance back into Thick's biography is well worth while. One couldn't ask a better example of graverance and the will to succumb to the little town of Weeks. Contained in Page 51. LIFE OF GREATEST BANTAM CONTINUES Utopia Neighborhood Club's Fashion Show Dr. Fraelich Finds Broken Bone in Al's Deadly Right Which Accounts for His Last Three or Four Opponents Going the Limit With Al Brown, colored flyweight knockout artist, whose sensational string of knockout victories has placed him in line as the real challenger for a shot at either Panco Villa's world flyweight title or Frankie Genaro's American title, will be out of the ring for two months, on account of a broken bone in his right thumb. The announcement that Brown will be unable to box for some time came as a result of an examination made by Dr. Freechl驳 yesterday, which disclosed the injury. It was the physician's belief that Brown has had the injury for some time, which undoubtedly accounts for the fact that his last three or four opponents were able to go the full distance with him. While waiting to recuperate from the injury, Brown will take advantage of the lay-off by going away for a well-earned rest and will be fit as a saddle when he returns to the ring to take up his fight to land a match with either of the two champions. Brown has been one of the busiest boxers in the ring during the past year and it will do him more good than harm to take a rest. MARRIED MAN, TWO CHILDREN Will Alex Gibbons Get His Long Looked for Chance? Chick Sugge Defeats Wilbur Cohen and Carl Anderson's Left Is a Pain to Willie Duffy. We are not at all ignorant of the future the claim of Alex (Kid) Gibbons to a chance against "Fight- ing Bob' l. a w o s e w will stir up. *We notice that the Bulletin of last Friday in running an acc ount of Lawson's record has given him a win over Gibbon. The c tipping which came to us from Buffalo tells a different story and we are not e tirely dumb to how Walk Miller or any other manager can get his side into the papers when nobody is looking. Personally we cannot see Gibbons winning from Lawson. The "Alabama Bear" joke like a house adive to me, but in the face of the claims from Buffalo, we would like to see this man who defeated Lawson boarding him in the Commonwealth Club, for we can think of no other colored fighter, and mighty few white ones. In a position to give Lawson a real fight. At the Commonwealth last Saturday night Carl Anderson worked his left to good advantage again and it became a pain to Willie Duffy win. Many of the other white men who have gone against Am --- NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 18, 1925 When they start the work of tearing down Madison Square Garden a sigh of relief will go up from the colored boxers in Harlem and elsewhere. Tex Rickard's flatic arena has been the graveyard of the hope and aspirations of the colored fighters. Kid Norfolk bit the dust in the historic garden when he met Tom Gibbons. Twice in the same place "Tiger" flowers met defeat at the hands of Jack Delaney, while Larry Estridge got his early in the second round from Paul Berlenbach, and Friday night he also toot to Scholl. Last Friday night Battling Sikl, the wild man from Senegal, stood on the receiving end of some awful punches from the same Berlenbach and the referee was forced to stop the slaughter in the tenth round. Of course, we do not agree with a local scribe who "predicted" that the fight would be a set up and whose prediction proved that his stance on the flatic game is somewhat blurred. Figuring the matter on the same basis we wonder what became of our friend's panchard for predictions when Larry Estridge was knocked lice in the second round by Berlenbach. That fight, judging from the result, more readily bore the marks of a set up than the Sikl-Berlenbach affair. Fight fans looked to see the clowning proclivities of the man from Senegal at its height regardless of how he fared. Nene expected him to win from Paralyzing Paul as his victories since coming to those United States have been mighty few and far between, but his actice and ring color have made him one of the best drawing cards in spite of everything and the element of doubt which arose in spite of a feeling of defeat for Siki which forced itself in the mind draw almost twelve thousand fans to Madison Square Garden. "Cum" Posey, leader of the Loendi team of Pittsburgh, Pa., is up to his old tricks again. Renstly the Pittsburghburghian dispatched a communication to "Bob" Douglas, leader of America's best combination of Negro basketball players, and Posey in what he no doubt called a challenge, outlined terms, selected the date and told Douglas all about a game between Loendi and the Renaissance Big Five. Posey is either drunk from the gases of his native Pennsylvania or he has entered his dotage much earlier than is customary among man in the present century. Our advice to Douglas is to consign the undated and terribly constructed "challenge" to the waste paper basket and continue on his successful way without a thought of challengers who have descended to the level of the parasites of the game. The effort made by the Superior Club of Brooklyn is most commendable and we hope to see them functioning next season with the same enthusiasm as marked their appearance this year. The same thing can be said of the St. Christopher Club of St. Phillip's Parish and that famous New Jersey quint led by J. Richard Lee, of Orange, N. J. Splendid characters like Charlie Bradford, J. Richard and these fine upstanding young men behind the Superior Club are fully aware that to meet defeat on the road to a worthy goal is to be expected. While their basketball teams take the court with high hopes for victory at all times, these men are teaching the youngsters that there is glory in putting forth their best e'en though the fates decree they should lose, hence the honor of a clean-cut victory will be even more cherished when it falls to their lot to defeat their opponents. Because we have advocated a return to the drama for a time of least by the Lafayette Theatre we have drawn the fire of some of our friends. This is to be expected, for: Music and the art dramatic Bend low to the vulgar will: And the critic when emphatic Doth with rage imposters fill. In a clash of minds and opinions we have no fear. We stand on the firm foundation of TRUTH and when this thing is discussed without hatred, malice or rancor, we will have won a victory in behalf of a jaded public. In this day and time we must, as a race, be shown the serious side at times so that we can more readily roar with mirth after the aurease from the thrills of a "Madame X," the wonderful construction of which brought us to the doors of that same theatre in groves seeking admission to sit and enjoy the splendid work of the late Walker Thompson; to see Abbie Mitchell rising to heights she will never attain in any revue anapped together over night, the reconstruction for our edification of which is made almost before our very eyes in the experimentation of trying, under very unfavorable conditions, to hit upon those things the producers believe will please us. In our call for a return of those things which will help to "give us a rest," we are not fool enough to believe that the revue and the lighter things will be set aside for all time. On the contrary. This departure from the beaten track will give the revue and lighter things a better chance to shine forth, for the dessert of timel and music, dancing and comedy will be accepted more readily and with more warmth after the short absence of something with which we have been curled. A theatre, like a newspaper, can do much in helping "the better classes" supporting such a thing. And after you have spoken I laugh with the authority which comes from a better group of the psychology of the lay mind than you will ever have. Is it not a foot that the majority of us cherish a tendency to be accepted as among "the better classes"? Let it be thought that a thing is being fully supported by this same better class and those to whom you think you are making a play among the so-called "lower classes" will instantly fall in line. It is natural. It is human nature. And we would not advocate a sudden return to the drama. Complets plans must be made to bring out the people brasting with pent up enthusiasm for the things to be unfurled when the curtain slowly ascends to disclose the contribution to the world of dramatic art by the master minds whose names will live long, long after revue producers whose time worn, moss grown reproductions of things which enjoyed their best days when Hector was a pup have passed both from the land of make believe and life's stage. It is for this that Sir Arthur Beerbeirn Tree, one of England's best and one of the world's greatest actors, stood upon that same Lafayette Theatre stage. Verily, I am proud to think that we were in a receptive mood for the coming of this man with his wonderful message for us, for on that same night a packed audience rose as one and drove from the stage a discipline/buffoonery that had no place in the settings of that occasion. By all means let us have our revues and musical comedies, our light and comic operas, but let us include the drama staged under conditions which will bring to a most deserving man the success of which he is worthy, and the success which will mean a great deal to all of us doing our bit, whether it be in musical comedy, comedie opera, the revue or the newspaper. The writer seeks only to bring about a condition with a firmer foundation—a foundation that will keep all hands working over a much longer period than the short time allotted what is being done at the present. Tell me not in mournful phrases that I am wrong, my friends. Pull the cobweb from your eyes and look with undimmed vision upon the sine which point to the truth of my assertion. It is there for you to see if you are willing to be fair with yourselves and see it. Down with your personal jealousies and accept the truth of a new day and stop vegetating in a bygone age that saw so many of you a success because of the law state of our minds. Today we are READING. You saw the time when a Negro newspaper struggled in a low state with its lying praises from which no good came, and today you are witnessing the progress which gives you a journal that dares to tell the truth. In conclusion let me state for the benefit of certain performers in the immediate vicinity that the birth of the idea which we are adjoining upon from the outside of the thirteenth and twentieth into the office of the house by the writer. None of your associates must be charged with it. Direct your charges to one who is in a position to rise at any hour of the day or night fully prepared to defend himself with the logic which can be brought forward by a schoolboy, so simple in the answer to anything you can say. A drama this week, a routine next week, a sample open the next, a musical comedy the next. Why not? Chick Suggs and Family THE FIRST WEDDING OF THE MARRIAGE OF THE MISSING WEDDING GIRL.

Monster Affair of Superior Club of Brooklyn to Be Staged at Arcadia Hall Preparations Being Made for Biggest Spring Dance and Reception by Popular Young Athletic Club Next Month An idea which has been coursing through the minds of many New Yorkers will be put into operation some time next month when Fletcher Henderson and his famous orchestras will be carried to Brooklyn to entertain for one night at Arcadia Hall, one of the best appointed and commodious halls in Brooklyn. It was left to the boys of the Superior Athletic Club to grasp the trend of things on this side of the water and what is more fitting than that it should be Brooklynites to first offer something out of the ordinary to the many people resident on the wrong side of the many bridges which span the East River? In lieu of the support given the Superior Club in its infancy the affair being planned by the popular young Brooklynites is in the nature of an appreciation of their efforts by the folks of their own home town, and considering the manner in which New Yorkers have been received in the old city, we would not be surprised to find many at Arcadia Hall on the night to be set aside for this big spring event. in opening of visitors journeying to Brooklyn to share with certain of the residents of that city on a big occasion the joys which are usually unmeasured we might include many people from New Jersey, and, of course, scores coming in from the many small towns in Long Island. At a meeting to be held this week at the Carlton Avenue Branch of the Young Men's Christian Association, a committee will be formed to host after the various details necessary to make of this article the outstanding news of what will bring to a Sitting close a season befitting with many splendid affairs in Brooklyn. The date settled upon will be announced in the next issue of this paper. PLAYERS, ORGANS, PIANOS TUNED AND REPAIRED A. B. RICHARDS 102 WYCKOFF ST. Brooklyn, N. Y.

Fifteen years ago the late James Reese Europe organized the Cefl Club, at 134 West 53d street. In that same building the club has existed all these years, passing through many different stages, until today the Cefl Club is in better shape financially and in point of membership than it has been in all its career. With this in mind the members have planned to celebrate their fifteenth anniversary. this Easter Monday with one of the most brilliant receptions they have ever given. Down at the Winter Garden on Broadway 10 members of the Cefl Club, William Elkins, Arthur (Strut) Payne, Carl White, Caseo Williams, W. O. Howard, Moses Rosm, George Jackson and Walter Gray are regularly appearing with Al Jolson, the famous comedian, in his "Big Boy" company. Jolson values their service and the club to which they belong so much that he expressed a wish to aid in the Cefl Club's fifteenth anniversary. Gal." Dunbar's poem, set to music, is one of his best-known works. I am still hoping to see Mr. Johnson at the head of a company that will give him wide opportunity to show his fine gifts. He is an accomplished composer and has rendered distinct service to his race and country. There were some fine flashes in "Hilier Rounders" which showed Just now in the big Broadway cabaret the Charlestown dance is very popular and several contests are being staged. Jolson proposed a Charleston contest as a feature of the club's anniversary reception and offered a handsome silver tovling cup as a prize. The comedian's proposition and offer were accepted; so, when the winner of the contest is announced at New Manhattan Casino Monday night, April 13, no less a person than the famous Al Jolson himself will make the presentation of the Al Jolson cup to the winner. In addition, two boxes have already been reserved by members of the "Big Boy" company who intend to help the Clef Club celebrate. Plans already made include the conducting of an orchestra of 40 selected musicians by Nelson Kinkead. Kinkead is internationally known as a leader of ability and has conducted an orchestra in the Famous Ciro's Club in London and Paria. Heading the arrangement committee is Alex Fenner, business manager of the Clerf Club; assisting him are Sam Patterson, the club's president; J. Wesley Johnson, Willie Jones and Frank Beaudhuy, all of the board of directors of the Clerf Club. The membership of the Cletf Club is nearly 200 men, and the joining fee was recently raised to $250. The club last year did nearly a $100,000 business and owns its home free and clear. On the roll of the club are some of the names of the race's most famous and accomplished musicians. In many of the most exclusive homes and resorts. Cletf Club members are regularly employed, and it is said that nowhere in the country is there a similar musical organization that can rank with the one made famous through the idea of the late Lieut. James Reese Europe. It is expected that New Manhattan Casino will hold a record crowd Easter Monday night when the famous Old Cletfles hold sway there for their fifteenth anniversary. J. Rosamond Johnson by CLEVELAND G. ALLEN "Ione who attended the LaFayette Theatre when "The Hirten Rounders" were playing had an opportunity to see the marked genius of J. Rosamond Johnson, one of the foremost composers and musicians produced by the colored race. The name of J. Rosamond Johnson is pretty well known throughout this country and Europe, and his compositions have given him high rank in the field of music. One of his compositions, which was of a highly creative or- or, and is entitled to be called a classic, was his "impression of a Mid-Summer Storm." which came in the second act of "Harlem Boundern." This, to my mind, is one of the finest things that Mr. Johnson has done, and a more beautiful and effective story has never been told in simple than what is portrayed in this classic number of "Impressions of a Mid-Summer Storm." The whole story was told in music in a most graphic manner. You could actually feel the approach of the storm, and you at once visualized a Summer's day in August after the storm. The gradual passages of the storm, the appearance of the clear, blue sky, followed by the rainbow, produced a picture that fastened itself in my memory. When I saw this composition portrayed so well, through the skillful playing of the orchestra led by Mr. Johnson, I thought of the days, still fresh in my memory, when the name, Colin Johnson, ground the boards of the leading playhouse of America. The compositions of Mr. Johnson have shown their creative ability and a high level of musicianship. His VLJ .

There were some fine flashes in "Ilferlem Rounders" which showed the extent to which the Negro had planted himself in American life. The cotton scenes, which are the backbone of the economic life of the South, brought to mind the labor of the Negro that has gone in the building of this nation. There were a few suggestive songs and jokes, however, that could have been eliminated Miss Abbie Mitchell, who is known to America and Europe, was one of the delightful features of the show. If you did not hear Johnson's "Impressions" of a Mid-Summer Storm" you have missed a real classic. Fletcher Henderson and His Rose- land Orchestra Featured— Capability Crowd Present. Harlem's newest cabaret, the New Palace Garden Club, Seventh avenue, between 135th and 146th streets, opened its doors to the public last Saturday night. The opening night program was featured with pleasing offerings by popular artists and an abundance of music, which was furnished by Floezaar Henderson and his original Roseland Orchestra and June Clarke's Creole Orchestra.

Revue With Special Music by Johnson Offering at Lafayette Starting Monday Scenic Effects, Dancing and Other Things Said to Surpass "Harlem Rounders," Which Made Fine Impression Here When First Presented at Popular Seventh Avenue Theatre Some Weeks Ago. Regardless of what might be said one way or the other, there are many who will tell you that the effort of J Rosamond Johnson and Frank Montgomery stood out in "Harlem Rounders," which was produced here a few weeks ago. In spite of the handicap of lack of time in getting this offering together, a most commendable show was the result, and Lafayette audiences went away thoroughly satisfied. Commencing next Monday night another revue has been prepared for patrons of the house and others that should top anything done within the past few weeks at the same theatre, for more time has been given to the working out of the many essential details and we understand that a revue far above the ordinary will be the result. far above the ordinary will the Unlike their previous efforts, more attention will be paid to making this new offering something that will carry instant appeal to everybody, and bringing into play such scenes as are depicted in Hawaii when certain volcanoes spout forth ashes and lava in the fury of the demons that shake the earth and bring ruin and destruction to thousands, the opportunity for scenic splendor can readily be imagined.

HARLEM Near 119th St. Makers of Home Happiness TWO BIG STORES ON THIRD AVE. Open Monday and Saturday Evenings BRONX Corner 163rd St : Jersey City Notes. By C. BION JONES. Mayor Frank Hague Takes Stand for Rac. The Eagen Waste Firm was denied a permit by the Jersey City Commissioners to erect a factory for its business at the corner of Roosevelt Ave. and Marcy last week, and the dental was made on account of the residents' protest that it would make a fire hazard. The property owners claimed also that the erection of such a factory would materially depreciate their property value. Everette Garrison, president of the Egan Waste Firm, met the argument by saying, "A colored person could come along and build right alongside of the homes of these people who are objecting and there wouldn't be a word said." This statement is claimed to have been even more insulting, but was soon halted by Mayor Hague, who very pointedly gave the gentleman to understand that the colored people had the same rights as Mr. Garrison and that their rights would be protected.

Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, Washington, D. C. and the Hon. Ferdinand Q. Morton, Commissioner, Municipal Civil Service Commission of the City of New York.

The tests were given to 500 New elementary school children, ringing the year 1922-23, and the port says "the group is probably presentative of the Negro elementary school population of Los Angeles."

When one is inclined to become discouraged at the inroads being made by a certain form of music which will never find a place in the hearts of the lovers of the best in this art which has made the world akin, it is indeed refreshing to look around and find that there are hundreds who quietly uncover those things which appeal to the best in us and which will always find a place among those boasting finer sensibilities. It is that which coursed through the mind as we sat and enjoyed an unusual program offered by the Weir-Jeter Trio at the Grace Congregational Church last Sunday afternoon. Commencing at 5 o'clock, the music masters held away through the medium of accomplished musicians, whose proficiency long ago brought recognition from pens more able than ours. It is at such times as these that we long for the ability to express in words what such artists as H Leonard Jeter, Felix L. Weir and Olive Jeter can so ably express in music. The program was offered as arranged, with the exception of the 'cello solo, Andante from A Minor Concerto, by Goltterman, which was to have been played by Mr. Jeter. An illness, which has made it hard for him to perform with the ease and precision which came from his trained fingers in the past, forced him to forego the rendition of the concerto, but in its place he offered a brym that brought tears to the eyes of many in the audience, which packed the church. The appreciative gathering which surrounded the musicians at the conclusion of the program attested to the success which they scored. The expressions from their many friends were indeed well merited, and many voiced the opinion that the only fault that could be found was that so enjoyable a time had to come to a close. The program follows: I Trio (a) Slavic Melody...Dvorak (b) Boiero .....Moskowski II Violin Solo: Andante Mendelssohn III Trio (a) I was Away Down Yonder (b) Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child (c) Didn't My Lord Deliver Daniel...Coleridge Taylor IV Plano Solo (a) Etude, Opus 27, No. 1 .....Chopin (b) Wado in the Water.

Strickland, tenor, formerly of the Atlanta University quartette, at Grace Congregational Church, 308 West 139th street. His program included French, German and English selections, as well as spirituals by Harry Burleigh. He was assisted by Ramon P. Detore. Strickland is a former pupil of the late Sidney Woodward.

W. C. A. A large number of collegians were present, and manifested keen interest in the address of the distinguished editor. W. T. Andrews, president of the Intercollegiate Association, called upon Miss Mabel Byrd to present Mr. Kellogg. Mr. Kellogg told of what led to the idea of devoting a whole issue to the study of Harlem and the Negro and said that it was following the policy of the Survey Graphic to present various groups and their struggles before its readers. He told of the inspiration he received while attending the dinner of the Writers' Guild, in honor of the appearance of the novel of Miss Jesse Fauset, and said while there he had met so many interesting colored people, who had distinguished themselves in art and letters, that he was led to make a more serious study of the Negro life in New York. He told how he took up the quiz. Negro French Inter Allegheny PITTSBURGH, Pa., March 16.— Monte Leon Robinson, aged 47 years, died Friday night, March 6, at his home here after a short illness. Mr. Robinson was born in Washington, D. C., where he received public and high school education and after reaching his majority, went to France as the valet to General De Gompey. He later enlisted in the Foreign Legion of the French Army and served 48 months, during which time he saw actual service in the Boxer Uprising in China, 1899 and 1901. After receiving an honorable charge Mr. Robinson returned to the United States and in 1903 returned to France and served another enlistment in the French Army. He then traveled extensively through France and Italy studying these languages and became very efficient in them. Mr. Robinson returned to the United States and came to Pittsburgh and secured employment with the Westinghouse Air Brake A musicale of rare melody and interest, will be given under the auspices of the Girla' Service League Inc., who will present Mr. Edward Steele, the marvelous blind pianist, in concert, assisted by other noted singers and muscians, Sunday, March 23d, 1925, 4 o'clock.

Johnson, editor of the Opportunity Magazine, and Eric Walron, the well-known young writer, and they worked out a plan for the publication of a special Negro issue. The speaker said that it was the aim of the publication to bring out the cultural development of the Negro in Harlem rather than the seamy side. He said that the Negro in Harlem had come about as the result of the pioneer spirit and the new psychology of the times. He called attention to how the Negro had an opportunity to work out a great cultural life in Harlem, and that it was expected of him to measure up to this expectation. Mr. Kellogg said that he would like to see a great Negro museum which would properly record the historical achievements of the Negro. He told of how education is one of the four great border lines upon which the destiny of the world will be worked out. After the address there was a general discussion in which the collegians book a generous part.

His address was well received by the audience, which included many leading New Yorkers. Johnson said that the Community Church more than any other white one he knew of lived up to the spirit of Christ in that peoples of all races were made welcome, not nominally, but really and cordially. The work of John Haynes Holmes on behalf of the Negro was also stirringly commended by Johnson. "The name of John Haynes Holmes" he said, "is known and loved everywhere by colored people. It has penetrated even into many of the darkest parts of the South." On Friday evening, March 30th, at 8:30, Maxwell Bodenbein will read from his own poetry.

Else whence this pleasing hope, this fond desire, This learning often importality? This longing after immortality? Or whence this secret dread and inward horror Of falling into nought? Why shrinks the soul Back on herself and startles at destruction? *Tis heaven itself that points out a hereafter And intimates eternity to man. This famous quotation from Addison will find a resting place wherever a human heart is beating. In the length and breath of the world there is not a man that does not vibrate in unison with the thought it voices for instinctively we fear dissolution and the grave. We feel these things are foreign to our real selves for surely this splendid being that is ours shall know a better fate than to live amidst the beauty and animation of nature hoping, loving and achieving to no higher end than have to relinquish all this for a tragic extinction. Ingrained within is the belief that we shall not really cease to be. We are more than grass and fishes though we pass even as they do. Our contemplation of that event is sweetly pervaded by a constant faith that we shall die as the Nazarene did—to arise again triumphant over death. Before me as I write is a series of pictures illustrating a dragonfly emerging from its nymph skin, extricating itself from the body it has been imprisoned in, to wing through air with light and beauteous pinions. Its period of crawling over the ground is passed. It is released from such limitation. What a glorious change from being weighted by a carcase to the freedom of roaming through the sunlight at leasure on sure wings. This process typifies man and his entrance into a better life after passing from the physical one and attaining to the magnificent freedom of the spirit. Intuitively our souls aspire to be deathless. Who would barter sunlight and waterfall, meadow and ocean, for a cold and narrow bed in damp earth, where only silence and decay abide? Those who contemplate death with a wistful satisfaction do so because they secretly hope it may be the avenue to a better existence. They are not really weary of living, but are caught in the mills of circumstance and lack the faith and knowledge that would deliver them. Life can have no greater or surer verity than that we are immortal. It cannot be that our souls, which are capable of such lofty planning, noble execution and continual improvement, shall fall away into nothingness after a few passing years on earth. If this were so, life would be a mere travesty, a piece of irony, futile and heartless, invented to mock man and furnish amusement to some tyrannical power. Only in the grand hope of immortality can we find a satisfactory explanation of the problems of life and the stimulus that animates the mind to look up and look forward and to place its good in something more than food, ralment and abeler. It is a profoundly enobling thought to know that our dreams of everlasting life shall be fully realized. It becomes a weatherproof granary of faith and inner peace that is coursed unto the courses of destiny. Wealth may come like an avalanche or like a sunset, but an avalanche or like a sunset, it can find a portion of clay for the indwelling spirit in quenchless.

St. Louis was host during the three days of strenuous work, which was sandwiched in with social functions and features, the result of a perfect organization of a local committee, business men and organizations. Mr. J. E. Mitchell, the chairman of the executive committee and editor of the St. Louis Argus, had resumed in welding the interior of the local people who wired bermonials given that wired with the existing welcome. The high points during the week explained the importance of the Newspaper Association whose object and preamble has been as often played up for "the highest development of Negro journalism." From the opening day, Wednesday, which was spent in executive session at the St. Louis Argus Hall, to the closing hour, which was the scene of a brilliant banquet in the Pine Street Branch of the Young Men's Christian Association, there was not a vacant period except for sleeping and resting. St. Louis extended her welcome on Thursday night at the public reception held in the Poro College Hall, to the key of St. Louis, over to the editors, managers, reporters, correspondents and workers. There were many features, almost no brilliance, to be described in language extended to the press newspaper while they were here. Among these was the elaborate hospitality of Mr. Kent, the manager of the Calumet Taxicab Company, who placed his cabs at the service of every member of the association during the entire three days without charge. This was unprecedented in the history of the organization by a local man. Then came the St. Louis Negro Business Men's League, a national institution to each member, and near the Poro College management, who did not fail to seize this occasion to show courtesy to the pres. Bishop and Mrs. Cleaves throw their hospital and palatial home open. Representatives of every profession and business took this opportunity to visit the association and contribute to the pleasure of the stay. Notably among these was the Douglass Life Insurance Company, represented by Mr. McMahan; the Liberty Life, represented by Mr. Snyder, the Underwriters' Association of the St. Louis Negro Business Men's League, by Mr. Hayes; the Urbana League, by Mr. Simpson; the Young Men's Christian Association, by the executive secretary. The election of officers resulted in the re-election of Benjamin Jefferson Davis of Atlanta, Ga., editor of the Atlanta Independent, whose administration was no firmly endorsed, with the selection of the following: Jos. Bass, Los Angeles, Calif.; first vice-president; G. T. Edford, Birmingham, Ala., second vice-president; Henry A. Boyd, Nashville, Tenn.; corresponding secretary; E.

The various standing committees submitted their reports and received the endorsement for their year work by the association. At the close of the session the secretaries gave out a resume of the work of the IPS meeting. 1. A plan was worked out after some discussion, even though tentative, to combine the circulation of the Negro press of the United States that will give benefits herefore not enjoy. The need for advertising is to be alleviated which will in a measure standard advertising and enable the members of the association to receive pay for various advertisements based on so much per inch for each one thousand papers circulated. 2. There will be an exchange of courses with members of the association in publications. In addition to this, each standard college and university will be asked to give space in their libraries and reading rooms for publications belonging to the association. 4. A week's observance for the benefit of publications of the race will be named; this to become a national as well as an annual event. Children will be encouraged by famous presses themselves with the Nassau press. 5. President B J Davis issued a ringing address. 6.

Post-Graduate Courses for Physicians at Howard University Wilberforce Students Raise $2,146 Founder's Day During Celebration WASHINGTON. D. C. — For a number of years it has been the custom for Howard University School of Medicine to conduct intensive postgraduate courses in medicine and surgery for weeks immediately following commencement. The courses offered this year have assumed larger proportions than ever before in that the Medical School is working in conjunction with the School of Public Health. This arrangement gives a much wider scope to the postgraduate courses and affords the practicing physician an opportunity to advance his knowledge along the lines of public health that new phase of medicine which is rapidly pushing to the front. By the arrangement affected, students may have surgery in medical specialties which they most desire, and at the same time join them up with Pub WILBERFORCE, O. March 16.—The biggest event in the history of Wilberforce University, the oldest and largest institution for the education of colored youth and managed exclusively by men and women of the race, was held Tuesday, Feb. 24, in celebrating "Founders' Day" in honor of the Bishop School who built the church he knew when he purchased in 1556 from the Methodist Episcopal Church a small tract of land with a few buildings used for the training of children of slaves who moved from the Southland. In the early part of February, President Gilbert H. Jones appointed a committee to make arrangements, consisting of Miss Tressie Clarke, Chairman, Mrs. Anna M. Terry, secretary-treasurer; Supt. R. C.

Triggs, stalwart Tennessee, and former member of the Knoxville Board of Aldermen addressed the Women's Club of the Shiloh Baptist Church. This group and stressed a number of points important to the race. He emphasized the folly of having untrained, unprepared individuals heading up commercial institutions, and pointed out the sad truth that each year saw 25 per cent of the income of the race clicked into the cash registers of the installation. He said, "The national racial calamity, which is eating up the fabric of our economic standing." LOUISVILLE MURDER SUSPECT TAKEN IN PA PTTBUSHGH, Fa.

This affords the finest sort of opportunity, and from present indications, it appears that many physicians shall avail themselves of it. The demand of the public, which is growing daily, for complete physical examinations, makes it necessary that the up-to-date physician fit himself for Public Health practice. The U.S. Public Health Service has placed their most prominent cooperation in projecting this course, and many of their experts will give lectures and demonstrations throughout the term.

Wednesday, March 18, 1925 FOR THE FIRST TIME in the history of New York State a delegation of Negro voters from the Harlem section journeyed to Albany to attend a public hearing for the bill introduced by Assemblyman Pope B. Billups, of the Twenty-first Assembly District, to amend the benevolent orders act so as to include Negro fraternal orders. LANDLORD-TENANT WARFARE HARLEM LANDLORDS, the majority of whom have unscrupulously held colored tenants in the palms of their hands for the past few years, are at last getting some of the things we knew were coming to them. Decreases in rent have become so common that it is no longer a surprise to hear of them. The end is not yet, for Assemblyman Grenthal of the Nineteenth A. D., has introduced a bill in the legislature which would prohibit a landlord from starting an action for unpaid rent while there is a violation on the premises. Of course, tenants and judges should hold sway for about five years so as to even up the landlord-tenant war, but eventually the two combatants must cease hostilities and get together for their mutual benefit. CONVICTED POLICEMAN THE CONVICTION of Patrolman Walter J. Hill, of the 135th street station for assault in the second degree and his subsequent sentence to Sing Sing prison should cause police officers in this section to "sit up and take notice" lest they, too, find themselves on the wrong side of prison bars. The fact that he is colored and that the men he is accused of assaulting are white, does not lead us to sympathize with him. Nevertheless, we must confess that we are anxious to know the fates of the two white officers concerned in this case. EXPRESSED BY CONTEMPORARIES DR. R. R. MOTON "From the courier: People so soon forget that forgetfulness affords us such sweet reminders at times. Perhaps we forget in order to remember. A school urchin once said: "Memory is the thing we forget with." When Dr. R. R. Moton succeeded Dr. Booker T. Washington it was said by any number that the great leader had no successor. We often admitted that there was no one to succeed Dr Washington. How well we remember with what disparity the founder of Tuskegee was compared with his successor. How Will A KING am I, great Allah's whelp. Whom devils fear and angels help: A fool am I, a motley fool. A whip of sentence, fortune's tool: A prince am I, hewn from a rock.

It ought to afford us extreme joy at this later date to admit the very efficient service Dr. Moton is rendering Tuskegee, and not only that institution but the whole group. The recent donation by Mr. Rockefeller bequeaks the splendid contacts cultivated by Dr. Moton, even if we insist that many of them were made originally by Dr. Washington. At least Dr. Moton has wisely cultivated all that was left to him. For his wise and excellent executive work, let us forget our comparisons of former years, and accord Dr. Moton his unstinted mood of praise for doing well the things that came to his hands as successor to a devised leader still lamented. March "Southern Workman" The March number of the "Southern Workman" published by the Hampton Institute Press, contains as leading article an address delivered by Rev. John Hopkins Denison, of the Madison Avenue Presidential Church, New York, on Founder's Day, entitled "The Spirit of Armstrong." This address makes vivid the remarkable personality of the founder of Hampton Institute, laying special stress on the spirit which led to his success in establishing a system of education which trains "the whole man" for life. An interesting article entitled "Forty Years After" by Cora M. Polisom gives an illustrated account of the work of the Shoal Indians at Pine Ridge who were educated at Hampton. The People's Village School at Mt. Meigs, Alabama, is described in a short illustrated sketch showing the excellent work done by Miss Georgia Washington in her thirty-two years of service in the "Black Bell" of Alabama. The School of Education at Hampton Institute is described in detail in an article by William Anthony Aery, its director, and a vivid account of Louisville's welfare work for colored people in given John Marshall Rogaland a article "The Negro in Louisville." Editorials on the Philips Wheatley Campaign and the Tuskegee Conference also appear. LETTERS Venereal Diseases To the Editor of The Amsterdam News. Sir: If venereal disease control is to be successful, there must be public discussion of these diseases and of the problems incident to them. Prudish silence does not hinder—it aids—the spread of these infections. An effort is being made to focus public attention upon this problem. Your paper is in a position to be a decided help to the Government in this work. Judging from the space which papers designed for circulation among the colored population gave to venereal disease control topics immediately after the war, responses to this appeal will be more than generous. It is hoped that your paper will cooperate with the Public Health Service in placing the facts of venereal diseases before the public in a frank but wholesome manner. With this letter is included an article on the history and distribution of venereal diseases. It is the first of a series of four articles which will be sent to publications for your race. The second number of the series will demonstrate in dollars and cents the economic cost of these diseases to the nation and to the individual taxpayer; the third will tell of some of the physical effects of venereal disease, while the fourth will point out definite control measures to be taken by the community, the individual and by industrial plants. It is planned to send the successive articles to you at intervals of three weeks. If you cannot print them in full, perhaps you can at least publish them in part. From time to time the Division of Venereal Diseases will also send you miscellaneous articles of news and educational value for your use. By direction of the Surgeon General. Respectfully, MARK J. WHITE. Assistant Surgeon General White Man Writes Mrs. Warren Mrs. Edward A. Warren, President. The N. Y. Amsterdam News Pub. Co. My Dear Mrs. Warren: I am assuming the authority of addressing you at this date having perused, for the first time, your publication. The New York Amsterdam News, notwithstanding that I have been a resident of Harlem of long standing. The policy of your paper is "wholesome" and the editing staff deserve commendation. I shall be pleased to add it to the publications received in my home. Truth, my dear Mrs. Warren, is a standard according to which all things are to be judged. It is a foundation, although seldom recognized, of all knowledge, and of all people, and above all the cement of all society, regardless of man's race or creed. I have always been opposed to discrimination of the colored man. Why? The splendid showing of our colored boys during the late war, notwithstanding that history proves beyond doubt his value to the United States of America, as an American-born citizen, years previous, is convincing enough to the minority opposed to his wonderful rise from darkness into a light of recognition that he is worthy of "fair play and equality." His growth, in face of discrimination, has built for him and his people "a living monument that today is honored by God and man," the latter representing the majority—men with principle and education. In conclusion, I want to add that, during the past ten years that I have labored in educational work in this country and abroad with the colored boy at times. I have found it inspiring, because (1) I saw in that boy strength to the nation to come; (2) a strength to his people. After all, in the sight of God, we are one. While the New York Amsterdam News represents a colored people, it is my desire to see that day when the "white man," appreciating its value as "a wholesome publication," will open his arms to welcome it as a newspaper fighting for the interests of all. Very truly yours, F. PALMER GIBSON. 6 E. 126th street, N. Y. City. March 12, 1935 Music Composed by Negroes table information. Clip it and keep it. I are divided into two classes as and Indian music as a basis for of composition. Many believe cannot be evolved from the ex-roups. Others—particularly certify maintain the contrary view compositions based upon such of what may be the right or Negro and Indian music is of of Negro music are inclined to of Negro spirituals. They are of composition by Negro com-posed upon the spirituals and other social feeling or idiom. For that compendium of music by Negro not only to many of the colliar with all of the music that to Americans in general who (NOTE: This article contains valuable information. Clip it and keep it.) Musical people in America are divided into two classes as to the potentialities of Negro and Indian music as a basis for an exclusively American style of composition. Many believe that such a characteristic style cannot be evolved from the existing music of those racial groups. Others—particularly certain composers—just as ardently maintain the contrary view and strive to back it up with compositions based upon such thematic material. Irrespective of what may be the right or wrong in this controversy the Negro and Indian music is of great interest in itself. Many persons in speaking of Negro music are inclined to think of it as consisting solely of Negro spirituals. They are possibly ignorant of the wealth of composition by Negro composers, both those which are based upon the spirituals and other Negro themes and music of racial feeling or idiom. For that reason it is hoped that this compendium of music by Negro composers may be enlightening not only to many of the colored groups which are not familiar with all of the music that their race has produced but also to Americans in general who No one can hear the Negro spirituals, authentically performed, without feeling the deep spiritual significance of these folk songs which reveal so tellingly the religious nature and experience of the people from whom they have sprung. As Henry T. Burleigh, one of the leading Negro musicians and editors of the spirituals, has pointed out, "More than ever today the spirituals ought to be sung because they supply a note of spiritual exaltation that we need in the midst of the post-war materialism." The authentic interpretation of the spirituals, therefore, is one in which this motif of exaltation is preserved. Collection of Negro Spirituals. Groups desiring to take up the study and the performance of Negro spirituals may best utilize existing collections of this type of music. For instance, an inexpensive paper bound volume of spirituals is "National Jubilee Melodies," published by the National Baptist Publishing Board, 523 Second avenue, Nashville, Tennessee. The spirituals are also found in the following books: "Negro Folk Songs for Mixed Voices" Volumes 1 and 2, published by Work Brothers, Nashville, Tennessee; "New Jubilee Songs as Sung by Pisk Jubilee Singers of Pisk University," collected and arranged by Frederick J. Work, Pisk University, Nashville. Tennessee; "Religious Folk Songs of the Negro as Sung on the Plantation," arranged by the musical directors of the Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute, The Institute Press, Hampton, Va.; "Jubilee and Plantation Songs," characterizing favorite songs by Hampton students. Jubilee Singers, Fisk University students. Offer Disc concert companies. Offer Disc concert company, Boston, Mass.; "Negro Folk Songs," recorded by Natalie Curtis Buril, Books 1 and 2, Spirituals, Books 3 and 4, work and play songs, G. Schirmer, Inc. 3 East 43d street, New York City. The music of several of the spirituals is found in "Folk Songs of the American Negro," by John Wesley Work, published by the Press of Fisk University, Nashville, Tennessee. In this book Prof. Work traces the stories of some of the most of the beloved spirituals. Another book which illustrates the history and spiritual content of these folk songs is "Afro-American Folk Songs," a study in racial and national music. H. E. Krehbiel, G. Schirmer, Inc. 3 East 43d street, New York City. Many of the spirituals appear in the form of special arrangements. In the succeeding list of compositions of some of the leading Negro composers those arrangements cover both the form of solo songs and that of editions for choral groups. The composers are listed in alphabetical order and under each name are given the various subdivisions of musical form into which his compositions fall. One of the composers, Coloridge-Taylor, is an English Negro; the others are Americans. The compendium which follows in this bulletin is not to be taken in any sense as being complete, either as to the composers or to the compositions from this group. It does represent, however, compositions of leaders in the musical world from this group and suggests a fraud of material available. Harry T.

It is hoped that such better acquaintance with this music will lead to the performance of it by both the colored groups, which may perform many of such works with good effect. In the latter case, it is well for such groups to bear in mind a warning given by those who are best acquainted with the inner spirit of the Negro spirituals. The best way for a white group to sing Negro compositions is to sing them naturally and without any attempt to imitate the spontaneous performance of such music by the colored people themselves. Use by Churches and Clubs. For the past eight years there has been a steady increase in the number of services by church choirs given over to sacred compositions of Negro composers for vocal chorus, pipe organ and violin. Many of the women's clubs have devoted a few minutes of certain sessions to the performance of religious compositions by Negro composers, especially the simpler choral works. An effective representation is thereby given to the religious aspiration of the colored people through the contributions made by the Negro composers. Examples of Special Programs. Certain of the colored groups operating locally under community service auspices have presented special programs of Negro music that may serve as guides in the modelling of other such programs. For example, a "Festival of Negro Music" was presented in New Haven, Conn. by a community chorus with a visiting solist. The numbers listed were the following: 1—"America" (audience participating) 2—"The Viking Song." S. Coleridge-Taylor: "Dig My Grave." H. T. Burleigh. 2—"I Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray." community chorus. 3—"A Thousand Years Ago." R. Nathaniel Dett: "A Little Gray Road of Love." Turner J. Layton: "Oh. My Love." H. T. Burleigh, soprano solo. 4—"Listen to the Lambs." R. Nathaniel Dett, community chorus. 5—"I Want to Be Ready," community chorus. Part II. 1—"Every Time I Feel the Spirit." Carl R. Diton. 2—"Kaushair Song." H. T. Burleigh: "An Explanation," S. Coleridge-Taylor: "Ah. Wondrous Morn." Creamer and Layton (manuscript), soprano solo. 3—"Swing Along." Will Martin Cook, community chorus. 4—"Muscle in the Mine." by R. Nathaniel Dett, community chorus. 5—"Swing Low. Sweet Chariot." Frederick J. Work: "Steal Away." Frederick J. Work: "Steal Spangled Banner" (audience participating) community chorus. Another such program was presented in Augusta, Ga., as part of a May festival. It was not made up entirely, however, of music by Negro composers. The program was as follows: 1—"Lift Every Voice and Sing" (a national anthem), J. Rosamond Johnson, chorus. 2—"Every Time I Feel the Spirit." "Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray," chorus. 3—"Bamboo's," Coloridge-Taylor, solo. 4—"Unfold Ye Portails," Gounod, chorus. 5—"It's Me, It's Me, O Lord;" "Walk Together, Children" chorus. 6—"By the Waters of Babylon." Howell, solo. 7—"Lord, I Want to Be a Christian;" "Swing Low, Sweet Charlot" chorus. 8—"Swing Along," Cook. chorus. Songs for Solo Voice. Theodore Prasser Co.: Jean. G.

By Ernest Rice McKinney (PRESTON NEWS SERVICE) There is one feature of the failure of the Standard Life Insurance Company that I have not seen mentioned. That is the probability that no attempt was made to get aid from other Negro insurance companies. The sum that the Standard needed was relatively small. If the company could have been saved by refinancing or by a loan was it not possible to get the money from one of our own companies? And even if it were necessary to effect a merger was it not possible to merge the Standard with the North Carolina Mutual or the National Benefit Association? This is one phase of Negro commercial development that needs to be pushed. It is the way that it is done by whites. Earl and Wilson, shirt manufacturers, of Troy, N. Y., were an older firm than Cluset, Peabody and Company. They lost a suit to the Phillip-Jones Corporation for infringing that company's semi-soft collar. This put R. & W. on the blink and failure threatened. But they didn't fail and nobody walked into their board meeting with the majority stock in his vest pocket. Cluset, Peabody and Company was called in. Earl and Wilson was merged with the younger company. The president of Earl and Wilson became vice-president of the new company and all is well. Negro business must be caved by other Negro business. Our business men must learn what white business men have learned. That is this—there must be no old fashioned cut-throat competition. It is alright to talk about "competition being the life of trade," but it must be the modern form of competition which is practically and really co-operation. Of course, this calls for the elimination of all petty jealousy, wild-catting and commercial bumbe. It means that our enterprises must grow and not swell. There is another problem in connection with Negro business that interests me. That is the question as to whether or not publicly should be given to business failures. For example, one of our papers, operated by a man who is also president of a bank, carried nothing on the failure of Brown and Stevens. The theory of this paper is that it does no good to let us know that a Negro institution has failed. I see no reason for making a feature story out of such failures every time one occurs, but to submerge such news altogether, perhaps, worse than to run it in red headlines. There is such a thing as calling attention to yourself by silence. It is possible to get unfavorable attention and comment through a policy of silence. Progress, accuracy, carefulness and caution are generally the result of criticism, both favorable and adverse. We need that criticism which will make us too the mark and make us set our standards higher. The failure of Brown and Stevens, according to the State Banking Department, was due to lack of conservatism, real estate speculating and lack of commonsense. Men of this type had no business to be at the head of a bank and to be in position to handle thousand of dollars belonging to people who had more sense than those with whom their savings were entrusted. The proof of more sense lies in the fact that the depositors had sense and thrift enough to save money and the bankers didn't This type of failure, like that of the Standard Life, should be given pages on pages of publicity so that the people will be more discriminating in the selection of a bank. They will put their money in banks and other institutions headed by a central type of man. Then our best businesses will succeed and prosper while the fly-by-night schemes will pass into the discard where they belong. One doesn't hear quite so much talk nowadays about Negroes going into business solely because there are so many thousands and millions of their own folk to do business. That in, today we had more Negroes coming to the realization that when a man goes into business he enters a field patronized by all sorts and colors of people. It is a fact also that any man who goes into business to sell to Negroes only is preparing himself to be the head of a small enterprise to the end of time. There are some exceptions to this, of course—skin bleach, for example. And too why should a man make plans to deal exclusively with the poorest element of the population? Why can't Negroes lay plans to sell to whites just as the whites have very definite plans for selling to Negroes? This is something in think about. "Labor and Industry." Harry W.
