TWO
Postal Inspectors Arrest Heads of Mail Order Concern Advertising in Colored Weeklies.
LOS ANGELES, Calif.
April 13. After three years of victimizing thousands of colored applicants for prospective positions as Pullman porters and dining car waiters. A. J. Churchill and wife, president and secretary respectively of the "Railway Dining and Sleeping Car Training Service," have been placed under arrest on a secret indictment recently returned by the Federal Grand Jury, charging them with using the mails in a huge scheme to defraud in connection with an assuredly fraudulent Pullman "mail order" school of international proportions. In default of $10,000, the two officers of the concern were placed in the local county jail.
Carrying the following advertisement: "Sleeping Car Porters, exp. Unsec.; send for the book Transportation Drawer Station of Los Angeles," in two of the leading Negro weeklies, caused applications to pour in weekly from prospective victims throughout the United States, Mexico and Canada. Big pay and unrivalled opportunity" in the Pullman porter profession, according to Federal agents, was the inducement held out in advertisements. Pamphlets of the service informed prospective porters that they would travel out of Los Angeles on western railroads who were said to be hard pressed for employees at from $200 to $300 a month. For $3 each, a twofoldum diploma was issued to the victims. According to railroad officials, "graduates" of the school by hundreds have been applying for work during the past year. Deposit Required.
Students are required, federal agents said, to make a deposit of $3 before receiving their book of instructions and examining questions. After answering the questions, it is said, each student was given a diploma and a letter of recommendation. Hundreds are said to have come to Los Angeles from distant states after taking the course.
geles about two years ago from Omaha, Neb., where they operated a similar school. Churchill has operated under the name of A. V. George and his wife's name appeared on the stationery as M. C. Peterson. They resided in a luxuriously furnished home at 1808 South St. Andrews place; and their office was in Room 492, Los Angeles Railways Building, and was evidently selected by the Churchills to give the impression that they were in some way affiliated with the various transportation companies or railroads.
Similar Projects Should be Investigated.
A survey of the classified advertising columns of the Sunday dailies and the Negro national weeklies will show numerous similar advertisements to that inserted by the Churchill, which should be investigated.
Most all of the railroad employing colored help conduct their own training schools and the Pullman Company, through its western headquarters in Oakland, conduct a training school under the supervision of efficient colored instructors, one in Seattle district and one in Los Angeles district, where all inexperienced applicants are given the necessary training without any hazes whatsoever. In fact, these schools continued by the Pullman Company are established in the principal district through the United States.
HELD FOR ASSAULT ON
COLORED WATCHMAN
George Donaldson 215 Downtown street and Frank Dannerwich 311 Powers street Brooklyn in both white were held in $1000 for a hearing charged with felonious assault on Fred Mayer watchman, at 916 Grand street.
According to Mayer four men entered the garage at a time he worked, apparently unconscious. They began joking and then ordered him to throw up his hands. Thinking it a part of the joke he engaged, when one of them hit him on the head with a revolver.
Hearing Mayer screams two policemen hurried to the scene in time to see an escaping automobile. After several shots had been fired the car stopped and the occupants started to run away. Donaldson stumbled and fell, and Dannerwich was arrested at his home later.

A few second-later he heard his wife, Olive, streaming and rushed in to find him grappling with both of them. Seeing him they started to run away and finally fled to the roof. Shouts from the neighbors brought Policeman Mahoney to the scene, who. It is said, saw them trying to escape through a skylight several doors away. They disregarded his order to stop it is said, and he tried two shots, the first of which went wild.

Klan Power on Wane, Report Says
Klan Power on Wane, Report Says
Civil Liberties Union Reports Factional Disputes One of Many Causes
A striking decrease in the power of the Ku Klux Klan is reported by the American Civil Liberties Union, in a report issued recently, based on the replies of correspondents in Klan territory to a proposal for holding meetings in behalf of tolerance in Klan strongholds. According to most of the correspondents the Klan is dying out owing to "factional disputes within the organization, failure of members to pay their dues and lack of interest in its objects." The Klan has been further crippled by political failures, "unmasking" legislation and "the general apathy on the part of the public." Practically all the correspondents advised against holding the proposed meetings on the ground that they would strengthen the Klan through opposition and publicity "on which it thrives."
"The growth of antagonistic fictions in the Klan is common knowledge out here," writes a correspondent from Indiana. "Many of the members have become discouraged and have quit paying dues." Another correspondent in Oklahoma writes that "the Klan is dying and if left severely alone will be completely dead within another year or two." The Oklahoma correspondent informs the Civil Liberties Union that the Klan's state paper, which had a large circulation, has been suspended and thousands who joined the organization are either publicly withdrawing or are refusing to pay further dues.
Similar reports have come from Arkansas, Georgia and Texas. In the latter state, the legislature that has just adjourned passed an anti-masking law that virtually puts the Klan out of business. The Texas correspondent also declares that "one of the Klan leaders, Bill Mayfield, who published a daily Klan paper that boasted of 200 per-circulation, and that one time cut out an issue of a million copies has just been sentenced to prison for two years," for slandering through his paper T. W. Davidson.
one of the candidates for Governor his paper suspended some time ago for want of patronage."
Correspondents from West Virginia, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York report that "the Klan is on the wane."
The Klan is reported to be still strong in Alabama, Colorado and in parts of several middle-western states. The conclusions expressed are summarized by the Civil Liberties Union in saying:
"The peak of Klan membership and activity appears to be reached the second year of its invasion of any section, and after that it declines rapidly. Local political, racial or religious issues have kept the Klan going strong in a few countries, but these are all exceptions to the general rule of decline and delay after the second year."
The Civil Liberties Union, as a result of the opinions received, decided not to arrange the proposed meetings in Klan territory.
Penn. State Industrial Survey Completed
WASHINGTON, April 1 — The Office of the Secretary of Labor has been advised that, under the supervision of Forrester B. Washington, Executive Secretary of the Armstronging Association of Pennsylvania, an exhaustive survey of the Negro population of the State of Pennsylvania has been competed for the State Department of Welfare. This survey was undertaken to determine not only the industrial contribution Negroes are packing, but to indicate to what extent Negroes are factors in the general community life of the State, and how their conditions can be improved. Matters of housing, health industry, education, property ownership and assimilation were studied and tabulated. Following the completion of the survey,涅斯 are being held in all the principal cities of the State for the purpose of presenting a digest of the survey, its findings and recommendations. Following these meetings the report will be published all distributed by the State

Commission on Interracial Co-
operation Atlanta, Ga.
Recently there has developed in
the South the well-founded conviction that cooperation is the method by which the racial groups here in America will achieve a better life and larger mutual appreciation. For five years the Commission on Interracial Co-operation, composed of influential white and Negro citizens, has worked systematically to discover in each community white and colored leaders who would accept conference and co-operation as the method of dealing with common interests.
The response to this effort has been encouraging. Public officials in most instances have been grump pathoeth. The most influential papers have given whole-hearted support. Church bodies have given unqualified approval. Especially encouraging is the growth of co-operation between white and color women. Hundreds of interracial committees are now in existence. Slowly the idea is spreading. It works. Never before were there so many white and Negro men and women sincerely seeking to understand their common life and by common effort to enrich the life of all. The community chests of Richmond, Norfolk, Atlanta, Savannah and Louisville include sums for the support of this work. Some of the great Southern church boards are also giving it financial support. The most important result of this method is the better interracial attitude encumbered as a by-product. Fellowship in work has been found the surest way to that appreciation and sympathy which alone can displace indifference and suspicion.

Advertisement Gas in the Stomach Is Dangerous
Recommends Daily Use of. Magnesia to Overcome Trouble Caused by Fermenting Food and Acid Indigestion.
Gas and wind in the stomach accompanied by that full, bloated feeling after eating are almost certain evidence of the presence of excessive hydrochloric acid in the stomach, creating so-called "acid indigestion."
Acid stomachs are dangerous because too much acid irritates the collate lining of the stomach, often leading to gastritis accompanied by serious stomach ulcers. Food ferments and sores, creating the distressing gas which distends the stomach and hampers the normal functions of the vital internal organs, often affecting the heart.
It is the worst of folly to neglect such a serious condition or to treat with ordinary digestive acids which have no neutralizing effect on the stomach acids. Instead get from any druggist a few ounces of Hirsutated Magnesia and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This will drive the gas, wind and bloat right out of the body, sweeten the stomach, neutralize the excess acid and prevent its formation and there is no source or path. Bisurated Magnesia in powder or tablet form never liquid or milky is harmless to the stomach, inexpensive to take and the best form of magnesia for stomach purposes. It is used by thousands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigestion.

Byrd, who preached the sermon, were three former pastors of the Lafayette Presbyterian Church, of which Dr. Cannon was one of the principals: Rev. Chas. H. Trusty, of Pittsburgh, Pa.; Rev. Chas. S. Freeman, of Philadelphia; Rev. W. Griffin, of Atlantic City, N. J.; Rev. W. S. Smith, pastor of the Monumental Baptist Church and a lifelong friend of the deceased.
Active pallbearers were the elders of the Lafayette Presbyterian Church, while the honorary members were representatives from all of the organizations and societies of which Dr. Cannon was a member. From Philadelphia came Mrs. Erank Potts and Rev. and Mrs. Chas, S. Freeman. Mr. W. P. Burrell acted as Mrs. Cannon's personal secretary for the arrangements. The three newly appointed Negro policemen—appointed mainly through Dr. Cannon's efforts—were assigned as a guard of honor. The Lincoln University football team also stood as guard of honor at the home and church. Interment was at Bayview Cemetery. John E. White was the funeral director.

A Study: The Democratic Party
By EDGAR M. GREY
THE history of the Demi Negroes is a jim-crow of ago, at a time when no ra any ticket but the Republican forced certain types of Negro party, as a protest against the Republican machine took York City. Strange to say stratum of the Negro voter w organized, at the direction of what is now known as the Un the days of its first chief. Mr been known as the harbinger criminals, and the partition element from our degraded.
THE history of the Democratic party machine among Negroes is a jim-crow one. Some twenty or more years ago, at a time when no race-conscious Negro would vote any ticket but the Republican, an incident occurred which forced certain types of Negroes to go into the Democratic party, as a protest against the patronizing attitude which the Republican machine took towards the Negroes of New York City. Strange to say, it was the so-called under stratum of the Negro voter who resented this attitude, and organized, at the direction of "Boss" Croker, the skeleton of what is now known as the United Colored Democracy. From the days of its first chief, Mr. Edward Lee, till now, it has been known as the harbinger of immorality, the protector of criminals, and the partition which divided our respectable element from our degraded. This opinion may have been true in the days gone by, but is not wholly true today.
true in the days gone by, but.
The Democratic party in New York City, like its sister, the Republican, is operated and directed by a machine made up of district leaders, with its domination in the hands of a leader or chief. The United Colored Democracy is supposed to represent among Negroes what Tammany Hall does among whites—it is in theory a miniature Tammany Hall. Its "leader," while not listed among the official chiefs or district leaders in the Democratic organization, is recognized by the Tammany chief as the spokesman for Negro voters. In Harlem, while the Negro votes in the same districts as the whites, the 19th, 21st and 22nd, he must be recognized by the leader of United Colored Democracy. If he wishes to be compensated for his affiliation with the party, this has developed sharp conflict between the regular district leaders and the Negro organization for control. If, for instance, a Negro resides in any of the adjacent districts and being a machine worker, he joins the white official Tammany Hall district club and is so efficient that the leader would compensate him, either in money, job or political favor, the approval of the United Colored Democracy must be obtained, or he may not be compensated.
The unfortunate Negro voter is, as it were, penalized because of his color. It is just as though he were not a native, English-speak-

Some twenty or more years face-conscious Negro would vote, an incident occurred which does to go into the Democratic the patronizing attitude which towards the Negroes of New York, it was the so-called under who resented this attitude, and "Boss" Croker, the skeleton of United Colored Democracy. From E. Edward Lee, till now, it has of immorality, the protector of which divided our respectable. This opinion may have been it is not wholly true today.
ing American, but was like an Italian, Greek, or some other foreign extraction; and even in the case of these foreign-born citizens, after they became Americanized—speaking English and acquainted with our institutions, they are never Jim-crowded into any hyphenated party affiliation, but allowed to work freely with other American voters. Whatever excuse, then, there may have been for the existence of the United Colored Democracy with its Jim-crow form of party affiliation 27 years ago, when few Negroes voted the Tammany ticket, there is none today, when there are thousands of Negroes claiming affiliation with the organization and voting the ticket.
It has been argued that this jim-crow organization is justified, because of the attitude of white district leaders to exploit Negroes, and to discourage their educated men from rising to power. We might as well argue that, because all American organizations and institutions are led by white people, that Negroes should set up similar organizations with Negroes at their heads and proceed to direct our life. The Democratic National and State Committees are led and directed by white leaders and heads; does any sane-minded, unselfish Negro argue that we ought to establish separate Negro Democratic National and State Committees and proceed to nominate Negroes for President and Governor? Of course not. We would accuse such a person of insanity and laugh him out of existence. What justification is there for the continuance of this jim-crow organization at the heart of Negro urbanity and civilization? None whatever, except it be to palliate the selfishness of individual Negroes. What progress has come to the masses of Negroes from this form of affiliation? None. As it is now, Negro Democrats enjoy a sort of twilight-zone recognition. That is to say, through the United Colored Democracy we have no official status in the party; the leader of the United Colored Democracy has no position on the executive committee of Tammany Hall; and therefore we do not help to direct nor shape the policies of that organization.
If Negroes were officially a part of this organisation we could demand that the party designate a Negro for the judicial bench. The first time Negroes were given rec

ognition to elective office by the Democratic party it came, not through the Jim-crow organization, but through affiliation with the regular district Democratic organization in the 31st Assembly District. As a matter of fact, in 1921 the leader of United Colored Democracy fought against the nomination rather than the designation of the present Alderman from this district by the regular district leader. And the former Assemblyman, Mr. Shields, owes his designation to the regular district leader and not to the United Colored Democracy.
Another reason why we ought to end this jim-crow affiliation is that it is unhealthy morally. Thugery, which has been a cardinal attribute of the Negro organization, would not be tolerated by the district leaders; for it would give the party a black eye in public estimation. The central policy of United Colored Democracy is to beat up an opponent. This is bad, and the party has lost votes on this account. The practice is to get professional thugs to beat up dissenters from its policies. Many white people have told the writer, and it is rumored in the community, that the chief reason for perpetuating the United Colored Democracy is to furnish jobs and a living to gamblers and incompetent, and to protect dives and beehives of crime. This charge, in the opinion of the writer, is not well-founded; but the point to be made here is that it is the result of jim-crowism.
If the Democratic machine is to function normally in Harlem, it must afford the Negro Democrat the same kind of affiliation it affords to whites. Mr. Banks, of saffron fame, is said to be the leader of the Democracy in the 19th district; Mr. McNiel, until quite recently, was the leader in the 21st District. Ferdinand Q. Morton is the present chief of the jim-crow organization. Mr. McNiel is endeavoring with the assistance of Mr. Cornellus Hughes to unseat him. The writer submits that what is needed is not the changing of one leader for another, but a break-up of the jim-crow system which no respectable Negro, however selfish, will impose upon himself.
The liberal reward of the party has been to help individual Negroes to rise. This gave jobs to the individual with the incidental salaries, but the masses have not benefited from this machine, for they are not represented in the party councils where they may aid in shaping the program of the party and direct the machine. The machine must be reorganized to eat the modern dignity of the Negro voter and his self-esteem and aspiration to political power, or the time will come when only ex-convicts, underworld men and persons who are afraid of the law and the police will constitute the workers of the Tammany machine in Harlem—the greatest Negro city in the world.
Lafayette Gleason,
Census Supervisor
ALBANY, N. Y.—Florence E. S. Knapp, Secretary of State, announced this week the appointment of Lafayette B. Gleason, of New York City, secretary of the Republican State Committee, as chief supervisor of the enumeration to be taken this coming June. The position will pay $7,000. Mr. Gleason will assume his new duties at once, taking a leave of absence from his present position.
All appointments, however, from supervisors down to enumerators will be made by Mrs. Knapp direct and will be announced from Albany from time to time. Mrs. Knapp is planning to visit practically all counties between now and the first of June. In order that she may personally judge and pass upon the fitness of such persons as are in line for appointment to the more important positions of supervisors who will be directly responsible for the count to be made in their respective districts.
The headquarters of the state census will be located in Albany, with a branch in New York City.
American Negro Labor Congress to Hold Convention in Chicago Soon
American Negro Labor Congress to Hold Convention in Chicago Soon
An American Negro Labor Congress is to be held in Chicago this summer. Lovett Fort-Whitman, well known in labor circles, is organizer, with headquarters at 12 S. Lincoln street, Chicago.
The congress will be made up of delegates from the various independent Negro labor unions, delegates from mixed unions (black and white), representatives from unorganized industries, delegates from Negro organizations of agricultural workers, and individuals of both races who will be invited because of their well known advocacy of the cause of the Negro working class. The congress will bring up for deliberation and action every outstanding social evil weighing on the life of the race in America. At the same time endeavor will be made to establish something of an international viewpoint in the congress
Mr. Gleason, who has just been named to supervise the gigantic task, served as clerk of the State Senate from 1905 to 1910, and has been secretary of the Republican State Committee for a number of years, serving in a like capacity at the last three Republican national conventions.
RHINELANDER CASE HITS ANOTHER SNAG
Issac N. Mills, former Supreme Court Justice, retained by Leonard Kip Rhinelander in an action for annulment of marriage against Alice Beatrice Jones Rhinelander, said last night there now seemed little likelihood that the case would go to trial until fall. Mr. Mills based this prediction on what he said was the failure of Judge Samuel Swinburne, of the New Rockleake City Court, counsel of record for Mrs. Rhinelander, to submit what he, Judge Swinburne, considered the issues of fact in the case.
PREVIOUS MARRIAGE BASIS OF DIVORCE
Suit for divorce was started in the Bronx Supreme Court by Mrs. Georgia McGee, 1878 Eastchester Road. She declares that when she married her husband, Henry, he had another wife lying. Mrs. McGee said that she married her husband in December, 1918, but discovered only last November that he had another wife, when McGee's sister called up to say his first wife had just died. McGee, it is said, married his first wife in August, 1914, and left her in April, 1917.
CALVIN JOHNSON
DIES AT AGE OF 80
(Preston News Service)
KNONVILLE, Tenn., April 13.—Calvin F. Johnson, aged 80 years,
former saloon keeper and race horse owner, died at his home late
Wednesday suffering from the infirmities of old age. He is said
to have been one of the most pictureque characters in this section.
Johnson gained national prominence back in 1893 when his famous
race horse "George Condition" set a world record at the Columbian
Exposition in Chicago. He was rated by many as one of Tennessee's wealthiest men.
Woman Fined for Intoxication.
Daisy Brown, 26, 1833 Seventh
avenue, was fined $10 or 10 days,
when found guilty of being intoxicated on the streets. According
to Policeman Robinson, she became abusive when ordered to move on.
Records showed that she had once served 100 days on a similar charge.
and there will be a number of fraternal delegates from distant Negro communities. All forms of, race prejudice, as well as the matter of equal pay for black and white workers, and discrimination in the union will be discussed, and endeavor made to remedy them.
"The American Negro," says the prospectus issued by the congress, "may well look with sympathy upon any plans to free Africa from the grip of French and British imperialism. But we cannot escape from the conditions here at home, and we must devote our best energies toward abolishing the social evils that daily affect the life of the Negro here.
"The strength of the race rests in its working class, and it alone has the power to lift the race out of the mire and break the shackles of the oppressor!"

ROGER BALDWIN GETS
SIX MONTHS IN JAIL
PATERSON, N. J., April 13. Roger N. Baldwin, of New York City, a director of the American Civil Liberties Union, was sentenced to six months in the Passaic County Jail by Judge James A. Daleney in the Court of Special Sessions here last week. Seven other men, all silk workers of Paterson, convicted with Baldwin on a charge of violating a New Jersey law passed in 1796 forbidding "unlawful assemblage," also were sentenced by Judge Daleney, who directed that they pay a fine of $50 each. Baldwin is well known in Negro circles.

Sulphur Is Best to Clear Skin
Any breaking out or skin irritation on face, neck or body is overcome quickest by applying Menthol-Sulphur, says a noted skin specialist. Because of its germ destroying properties, nothing has ever been found to take the place of this sulphur preparation that instantly brings ease from the itching, burning and irritation. Menthol-Sulphur heals oczema right up, leaving the skin clear and smooth. It seldom falls to relieve the torment or disfigurement. A little jar of Wonders Menthol-Sulphur may be obtained at any drug store. It is used like cold cream.

Granger Returned As Association President
Brooklyn's Popular Athletic Club Set for Big Time at Arcadia Hall Thursday
Present Day Youngsters Taking Up Where the Former Smart Set Club Left Off and People Across the River Should Give Them Their Support
Aside from the fact that the dance of the Superior Athletic Club, which takes place at Areadia Hall tomorrow night (Thursday, April 10), Brooklynites should turn out in full and give encouragement to the group of young men trying to bring back the days when the Smart Set held sway in the "City of Churches."
During the short time the club has been in existence they have made a most creditable showing and the members are desirous of branching out in every branch of athletics, hoping to some day secure a club house of their very own.
FOUR
This is a most commendable spirit and today we are gladly giving space to this effort because of what it will mean to the youngsters in Brooklyn. The youngsters of today are the men of tomorrow and if we cannot give them the attention they deserve when they are making every effort to do the right thing, then we are indeed lacking in those essentials that mean so much in the progress of any race.
At an enormous expense they have secured the largest and most commodious hall in Brooklyn with two outstanding orchestras to furnish music for the occasion. Fletcher Henderson and Maron Smith are two men at the head of orchestras holding their own in Greater New York and New Jersey and the appeal should be irresistible.
Any Brooklyn club with a promise of bringing back the days of the Smart Set Club can rest assured that every ounce of our support will be thrown their way for Smart Set stood for the very highest among athletic clubs of our race and not since those affirring early days has Brooklyn been treated to the kind of athletic meets as sponsored by the old Smart Set A.C. A packed hall will mean the first big step on their way to accomplish things by the Superior Athletic club and with the Henderson and health musicians turning on the very latest in jazz it is safe to conclude that Brooklyn will not fail the Superior.

Walker Baptist Drops One
AUGUSTA, Ga., April 13.—More than 2,000 fans saw "Chapple Gardner's Baptist Pets lose to the wonderful baseball machine of Morehouse College at Southview Park on Tuesday afternoon. For four innings Walker Baptist played good baseball, backed by the superb pitching of Coleman, the 17-year-old marvel. Errors and inability to hit spelled the downfall of Georgia's most popular school of ball tossers. Living up to their reputation of Southern College champs, Morehouse ran wild on bases, hit everything and executed inside baseball technique
Forlorn, pitching for Morehouse,
fanned 12; Coleman, for Walker
Baptist, struck out 7. Prof. Cade,
baseball coach for Palne College,
umpired the game. Coach "Chap

one of the squarer and fairest men
in college athletics. "Chappie's
long experience and knowledge of
the game places him in a position
to win."
SUPERIOR A. C. READY FOR BIG AFFAIR Lincolns Take Double-Header From Allentown
Lincoln Giants Win Double Header From Allentown, Pa., Team
First Game Goes Ten Innings—Second Is Won 11.0 in 5 Innings
Showing considerable improvement over their form of the previous Sunday, the Lincoln Giants outplayed the Allentown, Pa., team and won a double header at Protectory Oval on April 12. In the first game the splendid pitching of Hendrix, formerly of the Chicago Cubs, held the local team in check and caused the game to go ten innings. The final score was 4-3.
In the other contest the colored team showed that they possessed more stamina than their white opponents, completely outclassing them in five innings. John Taylor shut the Pennsylvania out with only five hits, while his teammates made 11 runs in four innings.
In the opening contest the Giants were able to hold a three-run lead until the sixth inning. Then Davis made a home run with Joseph on base and other hits by Hyde and Dell tied the score. Both Evans and Hendrix pitched aight ball until the tenth. In this inning Pryor made a three-bagger and Scries scored him with a single.
The Lincoln's scored nine runs in the first inning of the second game off Marro. Two more runs were garnered in the fourth, when Tom Fial, who is now playing center field for the Lincoln's, made a home run. The day was a good one for home runs, as four were made in the two games. Tom Gee and Marcel made the other two for the local team.
Both Gerard Williams and Cleo Smith quit the team last week to go with the Homestead Graya, of Pittsburgh, although Williams had promised that he would remain for the season. The absence of these two players from the line-up actually seemed to improve the team. Dave Brown filled in at left field in the absence of Orville Singer, who is expected to join the team next week.
In the first game, next Sunday, Ted Brogran, late of the Washington Senators, will pitch for the Highbridge nine.
The scores of Sunday's games were as follows:

High School-College Campaign May 11
Alpha Phi Alpha With 56 Chapters and 3,500 Members Plan to Reach Five Million Persons
WASHINGTON, D. C.—More vigorous than ever before will be the sixth annual "Go to High School-Go to College" campaign to be waged throughout the United States by the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity during the week of May 17th to 17th, inclusive, according to announcement just made by Norman L. McGhee, National Secretary of the Fraternity. Every one of the 50 chapters of the Fraternity, with a total membership aggregating 3,500, will devote its energies to the conduct of a thoroughly systematic drive to bring the gospel "Go to High School-Go to College" to the attention of the twelve million colored people—men, women, and children—in every part of the United States. The experience gained in the past five years, since the first campaign in 1920, has caused the Fraternity to come into knowledge of the best methods to be used in reaching the masses of the colored people with its educational campaign.
Aside from the information already in hand as to methods to be employed in the conduct of the campaign, Raymond W. Cannon, National President of the Fraternity and Director of the Educational Scales, as. 2 1 1 1 0

This bulletin will contain numerous inspirational messages from noted educators, both white and colored, and other material which suggests the value of thorough preparation on the part of the Negro child for a life of service to his race, his country and his time.
"Go to High School-Go to College" week has been pronounced by leading educators as the most forward looking movement ever inaugurated by a group of college students. The first annual campaign was held in May, 1920. In that year more than five hundred thousand parents and students were reached through circulation of literature, the display of placards, through the press, and the holding of meetings by the chapters and

members of the Fraternity in various sections of the United States. During the year 1924 the local campaigns conducted by the fifty-odd chapters reached some three and one-half million parents and students.
In 1930 the campaign was endorsed by President Harding who said: "The need for effective work to reduce illiteracy among the colored people is very great and manifestly it can be accomplished chiefly through the equipment of members of the colored race to do educational work among their own people." President Coolidge, in reply to a letter from the National Secretary, said: "I noted with the greatest interest the literature which you sent to me calling attention to the results of this campaign in behalf of wider educational efforts among and for the young colored people of the country. I cannot let pass the opportunity which you have opened to me of telling you how much I am interested in every movement of this kind. Our institutions will at last depend for their solidity and perpetuity upon the intellectual capacity of the people to deserve and maintain them. Convinced of this, I am profoundly interested in every such movement as this which you bring to my attention, and I wish for you and those co-operating with you the fullest possible success."

Suggs Gives Jackie Marlowe a Boxing Lesson at Commonwealth Sport Club
Fighting "Bob" Lawson to Hook Up With Mike Conroy Saturday Night—Bobby Risdon, Former Star Performer at the Commonwealth, Meeting Jose Lombardo in Panama on April 18
Chick Suggs, world's feather and bantamweight champion, but who is not recognized because of his color, and the story of whose life continues in today's Amsterdam News, came to town last Saturday evening and remained long enough to give Jackie Marlowe, of Far Rockaway, a boxing lesson at the Commonwealth Sport Club.
From the start of the fight until the end there was nothing to it but Suggs. The colored boy gave an exhibition against Marlowe that will be the means of keeping Charlie Rosenberg as far away as possible from a match with him.
Buck Arbuckle won the decision over Harry Gaba in the opening 10-round fray of the night. Gaba looked good at the start, but after having some hefty rights connect with telling effect the tide of battle changed. Gaba went to the canvas four or five times and on more than one occasion was practically out on his feet.
Arbuckle is not the finisher he was reputed to be before coming here, for he had the white boy at his mercy, but became terribly excited at the time when he should have been coolest and lost the opportunity of hanging a cleanout K. O. on Gaba, who, by the way, gave an exhibition of gameness that won him a host of friends. Carl Carter failed to keep up his knockout record against Jack DeMave, who incidentally holds two championships today after winning handily in Carter. The latter was hailed as champion by Cuba and DeMave, already champion of Hoboken, N. J., is flaunting the toga wrested from the "Cuban champion."
Heading the card the coming Saturday night will be "Fighting Bob" Lawson. Walk Miller's new sensation, who knocked Kid Norfolk for a row of apartment houses a few weeks ago. Lawson will meet Mike Conroy, of Rochester, in the main attraction and be a K. O. artist, the fans will be out early to secure points of advantage. In the other star attraction of the evening, Homer Robertson will meet Tony Sirocco, a local Italian fighter with a big following and a boy who never fails to keep the house shouting. One six and one four will round out a card which should be one of the best this season.
Risdon to Meet Lombardo.
Fans patronizing the Commonwealth Sport Club will learn with satisfaction that Bobby will hook up with Jose Lombardo in Panama on April 15, the coming Saturday. Risdon is a far better fighter than Lombardo and never received the recognition of which he was worthy while in these parts.
Had it been possible for this fight to have been staged at the Commonwealth Sport Club, an unusually large house would have turned out to see these Panamans in battle, as Lombardo had been press agented to the skies in the dalles while Risdon was a known quantity in these parts.
The last time Bobby appeared at the Commonwealth a decision was handed down which did not suit him and he not only refused to performorly shake hands with his opponent at the end of the fight, but decided he would leave the country for a while at least.
Judging by the success he has been here we expect Bobby to win handily from Lombardo on the 18th of the month.
The St. Christopher Club feeling that now is the appropriate time for all of the various amateur clubs in the metropolitan district, to get together and discuss the various phases of amateur athletics, would be pleased to have the secretaries of these clubs drop them a line giving the names and addresses of proper parties with whom to communicate. Mr. Eigbert C. Plie, 215 West 133d street, is the secretary of St. C.
It is desired that this meeting would take place during the first part of the coming month.

It must not be gathered from this fact that the "Tiger" has "let up" with his activities in the squared circle, for every day sees him at work in the gym and doing road work between "shots" on location.
Manager Walk Miller has secured a capable cast to support the "Fighting Deacon" in his first appearance before the movie camera and it is expected that the picture, when complete, will have a "kick" in keeping with the "Tiger's" brand of fighting.
Just to keep from getting "rusty" and at the same time give his friends and admirers in Braunwick an opportunity to see him in action. Flowers has agreed to fight any two men the promoters can secure for him on the night of April 22 and will go five rounds with each opponent. Other matches are now being made for him in Macon, Savannah and Jacksonville, while the picture is in the making to enable the fight fans in these cities to see "The Fighting Deacon" in action. The five-reel motion picture, while written around the life and career of Flowers, will have another nationally known character in its cast in Bob Lawson, the present world's colored heavyweight champion.
Lawson finished aiming his scenes in the picture Wednesday and left immediately for Boston where he fights George Cooke tonight.
Many of our leading boxers can be seen working out daily at the magnificently equipped gymnasium at the Commonwealth Sporting Club, 125th street and Madison avenue. The glove artists who work out at the uptown gymnasium are pleased with the facilities arranged by Jess McMahon for their benefit. Up-to-date showers and all modern ring paraphernalia, essential in the training of boxers, make the work pleasant for the fighters.
The afternoon workouts of the ring stars can be seen by the public, who will be sure to find a delightful few hours' entertainment. Shadow boxing, punching the bag, skipping the rope and speedy apparing matches between the men training there annares the raw of a pleasant afternoon and brings them in intimate touch with their ring favorites.
CLEF CLUB SCORES
"As big as ever," in the vexed of the many thousand joylovers who attended the annual concert and reception of the Claf Club last Monday night at Manhattan Casino. The occasion, one song to be remembered, splendid with taintful music, snappy entertainment numbers, and finally the Charlton Contest for the Al. Johnson Cup.
The famous musical organization ran things in perfect order, and the musicians were measured for real pleasure. They came in drove, and stayed to the end.
Looking More Deeply Into the Work of Harlem's Leading Dancing Master
Which Brings Regret for the Apparent Loss of the Finer Things in the Terpsichorean Art of the Past.
Valiantly struggling in the face of a jazz mad public Professor Charles II. Anderson continues to "carry on." Last Saturday evening we found time to drop in at the Elks' Auditorium to witness the introduction of some of his latest creations, and our mind went back to the days before the war, when dancing was more of an art than this thing of walking around to music, brought us by the infusion of jazz into our blood, which has brought us to something which, like jazz it self-savors of the unreal.
Coming on the heels of an era which saw the world at its most destructive period of the century, when the armies of all nations clashed and men went, wild with the lust of blood and consoled themselves with the empty phrase of "fighting for democracy," we took to jazz and in this jungle-like form of dancing we did the present generation the injustice of failing to hand down those dances which brought an atmosphere of wholesomeness to the ballroom.
We stood upon the brink of entering into this phase of our onward march with the enjoyment of what was known as ragtime, but even this was not strong enough to supplant those good old-fashioned schottishes, manurkas, the ever-authetic waltz and the quadrilles which our forebears, hanging on to the sills of "the big house" of the plantation with wide eyes, gased upon and enjoyed as much as the slave owners and their families. Professor Charles H. Anderson was a shining light in the early days when these dances held the fascination of our people, and even the nights at his ordinary classes were looked forward to with the pleasure now missing in the minds of even those who weekly attend Saturday night dances, whether it be in this city, Brooklyn, or in the little towns of New Jersey.
Professor Anderson introduced two new numbers at his reception night class last Saturday night that would in the past have brought him praise from hundreds. The joy of artistic motion for the ballroom was never more in evidence, and while the goodly gathering enjoyed it for the moment, yet the fear grips us that most of us will return to the "walking around to music" which is but an opportunity to hug the one of our desire under the guise of "dancing."
This state of affairs is, indeed, cause for deep regret. In the old days we could carry the old folks to our dances and they would get as much enjoyment from looking on as those who took part in the enjoyment of the art. Today the dance palaces are but for the jazz craved youngsters and their sapper friends. At Elks' Auditorium week-end, Professor Anderson maintains an atmosphere we would like to see come back. and if he should meet success he will have done a great deal to arouse a fuller appreciation for the art of private and public dancing among the better minds. His classes are truly worth the support of everybody.

SUGGS OFFERED BOUTS BY AUSTRALIAN PROMOTERS
Goldstein, about Went Glimmering When Cannonball Won Championship
EDITOR'S NOTE—This is the fifth installment of the story of the life and battling career of "Chick" Suggs running exclusively in The Amsterdam News. Suggs is without a doubt the most prominent contender for the world's bantamweight title, now held by Charlie (Phil) Rosenberg. A natural bantamweight, Suggs found it irksome campaigning among the featherweights where he was constantly giving away anywhere from three to eight pounds to highly rated opponents. After that memorable series of bouts with Charley Many in which he lost his championship and then persisted until he won it back again, Chick decided that his best fighting weight was around the bantamweight limit and that he would confine as much of his work as possible to the lighter division.
One by one he defeated many of the leading bantams, until he capped his surge to the front with an easy win in. New Bedford over Young Montreal. Rhode Island's claimant for the bantam honor wreath. Came then the thing he had been working for for months—a match with Abe Friedman, the acknowledged king of the New England bantams.
Displaying the same crafty ring generalship and relentless attack that enabled him to put Monty on a back shelf. Sugga jarred Friedman from under his bantam diadem. After that setback the clever little Bostonian hit the skids and every one who could lay claim to a New England residence immediately claimed the sectional championship by virtue of a victory over the then dethroned Friedman. Sugga did away with this trouble in a most expeditionous and satisfactory manner. He simply took on these pseudo claimants one by one and trounced them all into silence. Sugga' claim to the bantam and feather titles now is undisputed. With the ascension of Sugga to the bantam throne New Bedford could again boast of being the home of another dual New England champion. Not since Franklin Britt had ruled over the light and

walter divisions had any New Englander hold championships in two classes. Speaking in terms of educational championships, "Chick" had put New Bedford back on the pugilistic map. The next step in Sugga's persistent climb toward national prominence was to break into that Mecca of all fighters—New York. Many a manager has made a pilgrimage to that famed metropolis, but few have been successful in obtaining results from their supplications at the shrine of "big time" engagements.
All Suggs asked was a chance to do his stuff. His manager finally prevailed on the matchmaker of the Commonwealth Sporting Club to put Chick in on one of his cards. Needless to say, Suggs' preparations for his Gotham debut were more palestaking than ever before. The result was that he was in prime mental and physical condition when he met Nick Morber before the Commonwealth patron.
From the opening bell Suggs carried the battle to the New Yorker. Untiring and relentless he fung glove into Mercer until the crowd, which had been naturally
skoptical of the new colored boy, began to howl for him. In the fifth round Mercer succumbed to the inevitable and Suggs's first appearance in New York brought him a knockout victory and made him one of Harlem's static idols. After that splendid beginning "Chick" was in demand in the big town. He followed his good start up with equally impressive triumphs and developed into one of the strongest attractions on Commonwealth's list.
He began to attract considerable attention in the inner shrine of pugilistic solons and it wasn't long before Suggs received an offer for a trip to Australia. Full expenses both ways and a guarantee of five fights "down under" with minimum purses of $2,500 were included in the articles to which "Chick" agreed. Arrangements were made for him to sail in November, but at that time "Chick" had strong hopes of forcing Abe Goldstein, whom he had beaten in Fall River a few months before he became champion, to give him another date, this time, of course, with Abe's bantamweight championship of the world at stakes.
The Australian promoter could see the logic of "Chick's" argument that if he went away from the country just when his chances of getting his long awaited crack at a world's championship began to look bright, his interests would suffer accordingly; so he ambiably agreed to postpone the date of the sailing.
Then came another disappointment—Chick's life somehow seems to be spotted with its share of them—Eddie Cannonball Martin's unexpected win over Goldstein threw another monkey wrench in the machinery Suggs had set in motion to bring about his being given a shot at Abe's crown before the lustre wore off.
Nothing remained then to do but to fling a challenge at Martin hoping against hope that it would receive recognition. Only deaf ears were turned toward it. Hence negotiations were resumed with the Australian promoter and plans agreed upon for Chick to sail for Vancouver in January.
Just when it seemed that Chick was going to make his long delayed trip to the continent down at the other end of the world, Chick's New York friends tipped him off that the New York Boxing Commission might entertain a formal challenge from him for a bout with Martin.
His manager immediately departed for New York bearing a certified check for $2,500 in his pocket to post as a binder for his challenge. This occasioned another delay in the Australian tour but it went for little as the Empire State boxing moguls declined to accept any challenges for Martin's title until he had had ninety days in which to get his feet firmly planted on championship ground. They did leave an impression with Chiek's manager, however, that when the time came to consider challenges for the Cannonball, Mr. Suggs would receive favorable consideration.
While these negotiations were pending Chick let no moss accumulate under his shoes. He kept right on accepting dates. Chick had done a lot of things that have caused blaze critics to raise their eyebrows but when he stepped out and won three fights within five days, all against men rated as among the best, they sat up and took more notice than ever.
40 Kinds of Pain quickly stopped in this way
There are countless pains which one can stop—stop them a moment. The pains allied to rheumatism, to soreness, lameness and chest colds.
Millions of people have done this, and for 65 years, by rubbing with St. Jacobs oil they have saved cons of suffering. It may not do this the moment a pain appears.
St. Jacobs Oil acts in two ways. First, it causes counter irritation which relieves countless pains. Then it face to relieve the congestion which causes other pains and dangers.

Vaudeville Comes Into the Lafayette for Two Weeks Commencing Monday
Lack of Big Road Attractions Forces House Into Change of Policy Until That Time When Usual Attractions Can Be Secured for Entertainment of Those Who Have Found Enjoyment in the Past.
Commencing next Monday the Laiayette Theatre will return to the policy of vaudeville entertainment for at least the next two weeks. As in the past, inability to consecutively secure the big road shows again brings to the Seventh avenue house a form of attraction which will most likely find splendid houses after a long run of musical comedy.
srx
week will be "Ayes and Queens" in "Oil Scandals", which has been well received and which should do a much better business this week, as it is now after Lent, a time which we are told had much to do with the failure of the previous shows to draw as expected.
Among the acts underlined for most week are Williams and Brown, Carter and Clark, Thomas, and Reilly, World and Towel, Grant and Perkins, Dinks and McGinty, Brown and Stuffins, and Butler's Jazz Band.
Among those acts are many which have in the past made good at the same house, and their return will be hailed with pleasure by the many friends who have applauded their efforts in days when vaudeville held sway at the same house for a long period.
'Sundown,' 'Broken Laws' Features at the Franklin
Mrs. Wallace Reid Again to the Fore in Another Film Drama Meeting With Hearty Response
Mrs. Wallace Reid, widow of the late screen idol, Wattie Reid, occupies a position unique in filmdom. When Mrs. Reid announced more than a year ago that she would devote her life to the production of pictures that would make America a better place to live in, she was at once accorded the enthusiastic backing of people in all wars of the United States, ministers, humanitarian workers, civic leaders, public officials and many others pledged their support to her program of "better pictures with a purpose."
The first picture she produced was "Human Wreckage," a drama dealing with the narcotic situation. In this Mrs. Reid was putting her whole heart and soul, for she realized the necessity of curbing this dreaded plague that was gnawing at the vitals of America.
The picture was a wonderful success and it awakened this country to the necessity of taking steps to not only curb the narcotic evil, but to properly treat those poor unfortunate drawn into its meshes through sickness and suffering. Mrs. Reid's newest photodrama released through E. R. O. "is 'Brok on Laws,' which comes to the Franklin Theatre Tuesday and Wednesday. It has nothing to do with the narcotic situation. It deals with Mother Love and the Law, setting forth the necessity for law observance and respect of laws if our children are to grow up to become law-abiding citizens. "Broken Laws" however, is not a preachment nor a sermon. It is first of all—clean, wholesome entertainment; drama that is compelling and sincere, and a play for all the family.
The powerful and inspiring story of the conquest of our vast West—the rise and fall of the Cattle Kings
their lives, their loves, their fears, their hates, their passions—the human fires that impelled our race to fight and conquer—the same impulses that still stir our own hearts today pictured in the dramatic and historic setting of the gigantic drive of 100,000 cattle across the Texas border in an epoch of American life that is compelling, fascinating, breath taking. That is the theme of "Sundown" which will be offered Monday and Tuesday.

Sissle and Blake Returning to New York
Rumor Says the "Chocolate Dandies" Will Go Into the Lyric Theatre Very Soon
A rumor, and one which there is every reason to believe, is going the rounds to the effect that Messrs. Sissle and Blake will return to New York at the head of the "Chocolate Dapolies," which will go into the Lyric Theatre in this city for a big run. From sources we consider reliable we have it that while the show has been kept out and apparently going great guns, the financial returns have not been what was expected when the show left 16 take the road. However, the many friends of Noble and Eubie are hoping that they will meet with a greater measure of success upon their return to the city which first saw them enjoying the fruits of their labors at an earlier time, when 63rd street became the Mercy of those seeking the best in theatrical entertainment.
In spite of the roscate hue with which many have attempted to paint the theatrical horizon during the past season, few big colored shows have met with any unusual success, and we look forward with greater hope for the coming season.
Comedy Club All Set for Big Midnight Show
Many Well Known Stars on the Bill at the Lafayette Theatre for the Coming Tuesday, Midnight
Not only those who are promoting the affair under the auspices of the Comedy Club, but all the performers are enthusiastic over the coming midnight performance next Tuesday (midnight) at the Lafayette Theatre when a noted galaxy of stars will appear to make the night one long to be remembered by the theatre goers. Nothing has been left undone so far as the entertainment committee designated by the managers of the popular theatrical club to handle this affair is concerned.
A glance at the advertisement carried in another column of today's Amsterdam News will show a partial list of those who will positively appear and help to make the night one glorius one. While it is true that these artists always give of their best, it is a safe bet they will try to outdo themselves on the above occasion and the public will thereby benefit in a larger way than is usual.

Miller and Lyles to Be Starred in George White's Scandals Next Season
Offer to Go Abroad for Thirty Weeks Turned Down on Account of the Desire of Popular Comedians to Rest Up After Two Years at Head of "Runnin' Wild"
Flournoy Miller and Aubrey Lyles will be missing from the big colored musical comedies next season, and all because George White has decided that his two principal comedians had better go into his famous "Scandals" and help to make stronger one of the annual attractions in New York, which ranks favorably with the best being done by Florenz Ziegfield.

Word reached us the other day that a most tempting offer to Miller and Lyles to go to Europe for thirty weeks at the head of their big musical comedy show, "Runnin' Wild," was turned down because of the desire of the former stars of "Shuffle Along" to secure a much needed rest, and also to take advantage of the opportunity their work with the "Scandals" will give them in putting together something they feel will meet with success along their usual line season 1926-27.
Although none can deny that the music of Sislea and Blake had a great deal to do with the success of "Shuffle Along," those acquainted with Flournoy Miller need not be told that, apart from the brilliant work of the comedians on the stage, much was contributed by Miller and Lyles that can be considered the true groundwork that brought to these four men the success they eventually enjoyed when they placed Daly's 63rd Street Theatre on the map.
The colored theatrical profession has much to thank "Miller and Lyles for," for they inaugurated a craze that brought thousands of dollars to their brothers and sisters in the profession and even made it possible to recall many a performer who up to the coming of "Shuffle Along" believed they saw the "handwriting on the wall."
We expect many to differ with this opinion, but differences of opinion cannot change what we know to be the truth. Both Miller and Loyles have been the butt of some of the most ungrateful digs they have been forced to receive at the hands of those for whom they made it possible, but we believe after close contact with Flournoy Miller, covering a period of many years, he is fully aware that it is simply a part of the price for the success he and his partner attained after many years of sacrifice.
Aside from the things accomplished before the foodlights, there are numerous innovations made by these boys that really had a great deal to do with the hearty manner in which the colored performer was received on Broadway after a decade. Clean, upstanding and a youngster with the courage of his convictions, Flournoy Miller can
very well feel proud to look back on what has been accomplished.

Albert Howe Dies in Service
By WM ANTHONY AERY
HAMPTON, Va., April 13.—Acting for the Hampton Institute workers and student body, the Administrative Board recently recorded in its official minutes the serious loss which had come to the entire school through the passing of Albert Howe, eldest son of Enos and Mary Tolman Howe. Mr. Howe was born on December 14, 1860, in Dorchester, Mass. From the founding of Hampton Institute, Mr. Howe gave efficient and unselfish service and, above all, set an example of Christian good will.
Colored Typist Marvel Wins Diamond Medal
(COLUMBIAN Press Bureau)
WASHINGTON, D. C.-At a general assembly of the faculty and students of Dunbar High School, held last Monday morning. Cortez W. Peters was awarded the underdiamond medal emblem for accuracy and speed in a typing test given at the Washington office of the Underwood Typewriter Company on March 26. Mr. Peters is a graduate of the Department of Business Practice of Dunbar High School, and in the test maintained a net speed of one hundred nine five-stroke words a minute for thirty-six minutes, the requirement to qualify being only one hundred words a minute. The medal is 20-K white gold, platinum-plate, with alternating diamonds and omerals, and crownset. Mr. G. W. Ward, assistant manager of the Washington office of the Underwood Typewriter Company and the students' friend, presented the award and stated that Mr. Peters was the first student, and the only person in the District of Columbia ever to win it.
Mr. J. C. Wright of Dunbar faculty, who discovered the latent typing ability of Mr. Peters and trained him, was awarded the corresponding Underwood teacher's diamond medal emblem, Mr. Peters also has won the Underwood gold button insignia of the Order of Accurate Typists; Remington gold pin and a Remington standard typewriter; Royal gold pin; Woodstock gold jewel pin; and is known among the boys as the "speed king typist." Under Mr. Wright's coaching he is now in training to enter the international typing content for world's championship, to be held in New York next October.

Albert Howe, in death as in life, drew all men to him by the bonds of faith, hope and love. The appreciation of Mr. Howe's service to the citizens of the lower Peninsula of Virginia, both white and colored, brought together, in Memorial Church, where a simple and impressive service was recently held, members of the city government and civic organizations, white and colored citizens from the local churches, nurses from the Dixie Hospital, students of Hampton Institute and the Whittier School, military officers and soldiers, and many Hampton Institute graduates and former students.
Mr. Howe served as a rightarm in the best sense to Gen. Samuel Armstrong, who founded Hampton Institute in 1665, and Dr. Hollis B. Frissell, who served from 1893 to 1917 as the second principal. Mr. Howe helped these educational pioneers in laying the foundations of Hampton Institute.
Albert Howe possessed gladness of soul which expressed itself in good deeds. He built his life into the physical and educational life at Hampton. He took the Dixie Hospital and Hampton Training School for Nurses under his protection and made these institutions grow in usefulness. He, through his example as a Christian and a persistent, though quiet, worker, made men.
For Mr. Howe's life and service the members of the Administrative Board' recently gave hearty thanks to God and expressed to Dr. H. D. Howe and his family, through their official resolution, their sympathy in the passing of Hampton's faithful servant of God.
Doctor Gregg's Tribute.
Dr. J. E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, spoke in part as follows at Mr. Howe's funeral:
"Mr. Howe was everywhere and always, throughout his life, useful loyal, respected, beloved.
The familiar words of the Apostle Paul, found in the twelfth chapter and seventh verse of Romans, described him aptly and explained his unique place in this community, in this school, in our hearts and lives which it will be hard to fill.
"Mr. Howe believed in getting things done without waste of time. He worked hard himself and he expected others to work hard. He knew how to make the boys work hard for whose training he was responsible. He was brimful of energy even in his later years. He was a man of business, a keen man of business. He exemplified efficiency without telling about it. He was not, however, hardhearted.
"Mr. Howe was 'ferrent in spirit.' He had a temper, but he controlled it. He had a warm warm with essential friendliness. While he hated laziness, dishonesty, and slothfulness, he did not hate the offender. In all his work, in all his play, in all his thoughts, he served the Lord. He was simply, unaffectedly, and regularly Christian. His Christianity was practical and practiced every day. He was the kind of deacon that makes the church strong.

MARINE CAPTAIN TO TRAIN HAITIANS
WASHINGTON, April 13.—Captain John H. Cruige, of the United States Marine Corps, will take up soon his duties as commander of a division or district of the Haitian gendarmerie. He will leave for his new post early in August. Captain Cruige goes to Haiti, which has under American Marine control for a long time, to instruct the natives in military science, the Haitian gendarmerie being officered throughout by Americans. He will not take the rank of General. The head of the Haitian gendarmerie is the only officer of that rating connected with the establishment. As the commander of a district or division, Captain Cruige will have the rank of Major or Colonel. He is now one of the aides of General John A. Lejeune, commandant of the Marine Corps.
Captain Craige's service in Hattie does not necessitate retirement from the Marine Corps. He will retain his commission in the corps and is subject to recall at any time.

‘This Week
By Ernest Rice McKinney
- The gentleman mentioned
last week in connection with
a sermon preached, support-
ing the astronomical ideas o
Joshua, has replied in
lengthy brief surpassing even
his published sermon. This
college trained preacher says
that he is a “Fundamentalist.”
‘What is a Fundamentalist? Is
it necessary to believe that
the sun revolves around the
earth to be a Fundamentalist?
As a matter of fact, it was
the Fundamentalists, of His
day, who put Christ to death.
It was the Fundamentalists
who persecuted Galilee; who
instituted the Spanish Inquisi-
tion; the Salem Witchcraft;
and the Fundamentalists in
the Protestant Eupiscopal
Church who were the back-
bone of slavery in the South.
A Fundamentalist is noth-
ing more than the same old
reactionary strutting forth in
a brand new robe. Like the
reactionary in politics and
economics he is a barrier, an
obstacle to civilization to
climb over and batter down
He is the fellow whose eyes

A.M. E. Church in Good Financial Condition
PHILIPPINE FA. April 13
The fiscal year of the general departments of the A.M.E. Church closed last week. All secretaries are now busy getting their reports in shape for the various heard meetings which are to be held this month and next. In spite of the fact that this is the first year of the quadrennium and some of the general officers are now having had only about 10 months of actual tenure, the reports show that this is the best year of African Methodist history. The dollar money, which is brought by the ministers to the conference is more than a third of a million dollar this year.
The Book Concern, at Philadelphia, will report record business with practically all debts paid and over $500,000 clear assets, and plans for a new building well under way. The Mislonary Department with a new secretary, Dr E. H. Cout, and the Church Extension Department, also with a new secretary, are reporting in fine condition, while the new editor of the A. M. E. Review reports the largest sub-critic on list in the history of the parochial

COLUMBIA, S. C., April 13
Bishop W. A. Fountain of Atlanta,
has been called to aid Bishop

ed in 1852, the largest colored
institution in the state, with 1,058
students, having a plant in the very
heart of Columbia, and 30 acres of
land, valued at a quarter of a million
dollars, is operated by the A.
M. E. Church. Bishop Chappelle is
chancellor.

Southern Students Seek Steel Jobs
WASHINGTON, D. C. It is reported that the United States Chamber of Commerce has received a request from the representatives of about 400 Negro students of Georgia for assistance in placing the students in steel plants during the coming vacation season, where they may be given employment in both the skilled and unskilled occupations. In lieu of this type of work, the students would next prefer consideration for places in the railway transportation service or at northern summer resorts, hoping to save sufficient funds to meet expenses of the coming fall and winter school forms.

Standing room was at a premium in Mother Zion Church the entire day. At 10.45 a.m., Rev. Walter M. Howlett, preached to the Junior Church and a very large number of adults. Every available spot was occupied. Ten members were taken into the Junior Church, and two adults for the Senior Church. In the main auditorium, Dr. Brown brought to his hearers an exceptional Easter message. He preached from 1. Cor. 15: 34; his theme being "The Resurrection." Everyone forgot the inconvenience of the crowded building in their eagerness to hear him. Ten persons joined the church.
At the Sunday School hour, the same crowded condition existed. Appropriate programs were given in both departments. Parents anxious to hear their children helped to make up the interested audience. The proceeds from the rally amounted to $250.
At 3.30 p. m. Baptism and Holy Communion were administered. Seven children and three adults were baptized. Rev. Conrad Thomas preached a very fitting sermon, after which over 500 communed. The Junior Church contributed $150 to the Building Fund. The Intermediate C. E. Society gave a religious drama, "Ruth and Naomi," which was well rendered and enjoyed by all present. The Easter offering for the Building Fund, through the auxiliaries, was $4,000. Annual memorial services, under the auspices of Monarch Lodge, will be held Sunday at 3.30 p. m.

HARLEM SECOND S. D. A.
Sunday night, Pastor Strachan's talk was a historical one. He dealt with the circumstances, which led up to the appointment of Easter as a church festival years ago.
The pastor said, among other things, "What will the devotees of Easter say if the time should ever come that the modern ministers and churches generally got their eyes open concerning the origin of the day and abandoned it. One prominent Baptist preacher in the South this year declared that his congregation would not honor the heathen goddess Easter. What will the other denominations say, should the Baptists everywhere thunder from their palpits the words of Dr. Hiscock, that baptism
and baptism by immersion alone. is God's appointed way of showing faith in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ."
Lowery Institute, S. C. Purchases Farm Land
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Rev. C. H. Plummer, field representative of Lowery Institute and Industrial School, of Mayesville, S. C., announces that the school has made a thousand-dollar first payment upon a 200-acre tract of farm land adjoining the institute, upon which the students will receive actual training in farm operations and productivity. Qualified instructors will take charge of the tract, and upon it students will devote a part of each day, as a portion of their course in the scientific tilling of the soil and farm practice. Aside from the training phase of the experiment, it is expected to raise products which may be used as food for the students, thereby making the school partially self-supporting, Congressmen and Senators of the state have endorsed the project, and it is thought that the outstanding $5,000 will be promptly forthcoming from supporters and friends of Lowery Institute.

COLONEL LITTLE'S RESIGNATION
as commander of the 369th Infasitry bas
been followed by the appointment of
Colonel William A. Taylor to fill the va
cancy by Adjutant General Westcott, of
the National Guard Staff. By this action
it.would scem that the petition to Gov-
esuor Smith to appoint 2 Negro to the
command has fallen on deaf ears. Not
ealy this but a man totally unknown to
the colored population of Hariem and, so
far as we know, to Negroes throughout
the State, is to head the regiment.
WHAT ASSISTANCE can he, through
the regiment, give to the community?
What inspiration can be give the young
men of the race? What service will be
~~" to the city and state? Little,
SOHEREFORE, the fight must go on
2 ibated. If the regiment bad func:
“doned properly and efficiently im years
gone by; that is, if it had attracted race-
loving men to its ranks, and if there
had been no discrimination in the pro-
motions, there is very little doubt but
that a Negro successor could have been
found within the ranks to take the place
of Colonel Little, There are possibly
fewer colored officers in the regiment
now than at any time in its history, and
it is keenly to be regretted that these
few seem indifferent to their promotion
or to the promotion of one of their fel
lows to the colonelcy. |
NUMBER PLAYERS
THE POLICE DEPARTMENT'S com
tinual raid on policy or number players
‘resulted last week in the shooting of a
plain clothes detective, who is im a criti
cal condition in the Harlem Hospital.
The culprit will, in all probability, be
captured and dealt with according to
the law.
BUT, the policy game will goon and
on, until the police come to a realization
thet they are procectiog trom the wrong
end. Admitting that the game is an evil
infinence and that it should be stamped
out, its influence for evil is sot great
enough to afford detectives an excuse
to stop and search citizens om the street,
without first making absolstely certain)
that they are offenders against the law.
IN ORDER TO PUT AN END to-number
playing the evil must be attacked at its
source. This may be dose by arresting
and convicting its backers—so-called
bankers—who reap a profitable harvest
from it and who are the real offenders.
These men and women shoeld be pretty
well known to the police. The game will
fever be stamped out by searcting

--- The Oyster Percolator -:-
“Much Ado About Nothing”
By J. OTHO GRAY | ‘coed at once to the building
ZEKIEL BROWNER entered Izzy Cohen's delica-
E tessen store and asked for a pint of oysters.
“We have no: more: oysters today,” Cohen ex-
plained politely. . .
“Not even a small pint?” Mr. Browner asked anxious;
ly. Cohen looked at the clock, whose beaming dial plsin-
ly registered the time as 3: .
“At this time of day tl ain't a Ee of oysters
left in Birmingham. You see we sell ‘em faster than they
are caught, but I've got some nice cold beef if you:
want that.”
Mr. Browner was an inveterate and chronic con-
sumer of oysters, which would imply he was an oyster
epicure, and in all verity he was; in fact, he was a con-
noisseur orf the subject of oysters, whether fried, baked
or stewed, This information is set forth somewhat in
detail in order that you may more vividly visualize just
how pained and Sisappotnted he was when informed he
could yet no oysters his supper. not merely at Izzy
Cohen's, but, according to Izzy Cohen himself, not even
anywhere in the tempeh and breadth of Birmingham, that
blossom of the State of Alabama. You know yourself that
when a person is all set for a nice intimate little oyster
supper. cold sliced beef makes 2 profoundly unsatiatac:
tory substitute. So. Mr. Browner wended his way home-
ward cogitating on the oyster shortage and wondering
how it could be relieved so that an oyster lover could buy
the luscious bivalves at 3:30 in the afternoon as readily
