No contrastive journals of Negro life—as it is in America and the other as it might be in Africa, respectively—we began to prepare to climb the ladder of thrills. The excursionists on board the train were typical of metropolitan life. Jew and Gentile graciously ended each other. There were no prohibitions against the transition, mixing of races, and Nobilies and Africans frequently exchanged cigarettes or ate a bonbon from the same candy box. As the commotion on the platform increased under the already tread of excursionists' feet, we noticed that either from choice or from necessity, some members of the center sex were sitting themselves in the smoker.

Hastily we choked out the final NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 1925 nees end of a great, big cigar, the smoke of which was drifting right over the seat occupied by the pretty brown miss. Here, we thought, as in the days of Moses, is a girl who's brown but comely—a creature akin to those described by John Ruskin—an Annette Kellerman and Isadora Dunner, with a brown-skin exterior. Surely, we thought to ourselves, as the big cigar snuffled a moment and then went out, we must offer to accord her into the ladies' coach aboard where neither the smoke of Haita tobacco nor the aroma of Virginia cigarettes will filter through her locks or inflame her nostrils. But, as we arose to perform the pleasant act of chivalry, did our eyes deceive us? No, not; for we reached the aisle just in time to see the dainty gloved hand of our brown-elin Ruskin girl reach under the car seat, deftly strike a match—and light a Plediment cigarette which was soon working full-time underneath the rainbow urban Ethiopia had stretched forth her hand. Land Grant College Conference Just as we go to press, the Land Grant college president, denied by Prof. R. S. Grosseau of Delaware State College, are holding their annual conference at Greensboro, N.C., where they are giving special attention to the question of economic opportunities for Negroes of the South. They are taking up with important issues as the demand for and distribution of skilled Negro workers, male and female, in the hope, it is present, of carrying back to their college more definitely formulated program for the training of colored youth, thoroughly in conscience with the present and future opportunities of Negro workers, the latter of which must be obviously forced by allied concentration in the cause of a wider field of labor and compensation for the black man and woman. Just at this time North Carolina has astonished him to the heights of necparity with Virginia in the seville industry, but it cannot be said that the civil worker is gaining any valuable entrance into the skilled textile trades of the Tar Heel State. It is to be hoped that the Land Grant Colleges presidents, holding their conference in North Carolina, let down their burdens where they were and impressed North Carolina textile industries with the great equity which could be brought to mass by permitting a wide inclusion of skilled Negro hands in their textile personnel. Similar advancement should have been requested for the tobacco hands of centers like Winston Gale, Lynchburz, Hopkinsville, Lougville, etc. with a wag commandeered with the high prices which tobacco growers are receiving nowadays. Similarly, pressure should be brought to bear in construction work, iron and steel, and the scientific phases of farming or agriculture; and the business of advanced training for Negroes should be whitewashed away from the visions of selfish whites who are afraid that the Negro may become too full of the so-called superiorization. Some one has said that money is power and training in money. It follows, therefore, that training is money, but in Nero life the equation has never arisen be a balanced one. Shapers of Nero advancement have tried to subordinate training to opportunity, imporing Abraham Lincoln's ACCUSES HUSBAND OF SLASHING HER With seven wounds on her body inflicted, it is alleged, by her husband, Mrs. Dalby Thomas, 420 St Nicholas avenue, was taken to Harlem Hospital. Raymond Thomas, 24, 265 Main street, Yonkers, the spouse, was later arrested at his home by Detective Winterhalter after hearing Mrs. Thomas' story. Thomas was held in $1,500 bail for a hearing. He pleaded not guilty. The pair had been separated for several months. homely philosophy of "I shall study and prepare myself, and some time my opportunity may come." Consequently, endervers have frequently been made to limit training to limited opportunities rather than to broaden training and let opportunities take care of themselves. The Land Grant College presidents should be commended for conferring upon economic opportunities for the Negroes of the South who are enforcedly a bit behind their brethren of the North in Opportunity, all of whom, however, should be given voluntary cooperation of all, to the end that the brethren's economic chances North and South, East and West, may be full and wholesome, based upon merit and endeavor. News! News! What Is News? When a Negro student of Dunbar High School Washington, I. C. touched up the keyboard of an Underwood typewriter at the rate of 100 words per minute, thereby winning the Underwood diamond gelat for speed and accuracy, which, incidentally, was the first throw that any student—ANY STUDENT—in America had performed such a feat. it was believed that the youngster's performance would be gladly accepted as news news of the absorbing progress of American youth. The days of Rose Fritz were recalled. 57 words-per-minute clip. Otis Blaiscoll and his speed Remington were recalled, whom tons of papers were used by the press to describe Blaiscoll's wondersfringers. Other typewriting kings and queens, whose exploits sent many a typewriter to bed with a headache, were recalled to our fading memory. But here, though, was a vanguard Negro student named Cortez Peters, still under instruction, who had typedwritten 100 words a minute. The news was rushed to the local press by an good friend J. C. Wright, who, incidentally, is the instructor of Peters a moulder of public opinion and a Christian gentleman overflowing with interest in the public welfare. The teacher, newspaper man made a nice story of Peters' amazing performance and sent it to the press for and near, particularly to the four great dallies of Washington, D. C. After a few days' visit, the story of Peters' triumph, bolted down to a miniature, appeared in a semi-erected corner of one of the Washington dailies. The other three turned in down cold. Also, to them once an item was not news. It had no value. But look in them all and we read: "They Raiders Take Party Nearly All the Prisoners Were Negroes." That's news. Color doesn't matter in crime; but in credit—well, that's different. That is not news. Electric Co. Says No Discrimination (Continued from Page 1.) acts of discrimination as petty as this, and more so, from which Harlem Negroes suffer in silence or concerning which their individual protests, however righteous, are ineffective for lack of support. But this perilous practice to which so many Harlemites are prey should be stopped and if we are blessed with a few public spirited citizens who would fight as zealously for the rights denied them here as they do to right the wrongs from which their southern brethren suffer, we should be stopped. The action of the electric company, a public service corporation, is not only vicious, but illegal. I would not, here, presume to advise or to suggest a course of procedure. However, it does seem that a civic organization that would investigate such cases that affect so large a group of individuals and which would institute the proceeding necessary to abate some of these many evils is greatly needed. 2005 Seventh avenue. April 16, 1925. Freed on Charge of Stealing Dresses Accused of the theft of six gowns valued at $140 from his former employer, Leo Steinberg, 1577 St. Nicholas avenue, Alva Cannon, 29, 4 East 107th street, was found not guilty in the Heights Court by Magistrate Simpson Monday morning. Steinberg said that a few days after Cannon had left him he missed the dresses and insisted that no one else but Cannon had had an opportunity to take them. Through Attty, Richard L. Cunningham, counsel for the defendant. It developed that other employees and even customers may have taken the missing garments, whereupon Magistrate Simpson said that since the only proof against Cannon was Steinberg's suspicions, he should beischarged.

AND THE NEGRO A Review of the Relationship of the Republican Party to the Negro By Edgar M. Grey The Republican Party, the "savior" of the Negro race, is now in control at Washington. The Democratic Party, the "traducer" of the Negro race and its rights under the American Constitution, is in a state of reorganization. The conservative element of the Republican Party is at the helm of the party's ship. The American Negro is hopeful. Calvin Coolidge has promised to be fair to all citizens, regardless of color or race. Marcus Garvey, the "Moses" of the Negro race, is safely lodged in a Federal prison. What are the indications, present, that the Negro will benefit, either from the fact that the Republican Party is in power at Washington or from the fact that the Democratic Party is being reorganized; or from the fact that Marcus Garvey is in prison. There are two elements in the Republican Party—a liberal and a conservative. In the past history of the party in its relationship to the Negro, the conservative and liberal element of the party, when in power, has meant nothing to the Negro. It has, however, been willing to barter away his rights when ever the stability of the party and the success of the particular administration were threatened. The conservative element in the party first gained power in 1857 and Lincoln was quite willing to leave the Negro in slavery, had no the Southerners fired at Fort Sumter. This last is evidenced by the fact that when in 1861 the southern congressmen were deserting their seats in the United States Congress, and threatening defiantly the authority of the Federal Government, this conservative element of the Republican party in the Congress, under the leadership of Charles Francis Adams of Massachusetts, organized a joint committee composed of 12 members of the Senate and 33 members of the House, to make overtures to the seconding southern Democrats. The whole meat of this diplomatic joint committee was a proposed "Seventh Amendment to the Constitution which would make slavery eternal and permanent in this nation, for it provided that no amendment to the Constitution or any other resolution affecting slavery, whatsoever could be lawfully proposed on the floor of the Congress unless its move or proponent had first obtained previously the consent of every congressman from the slave-holding states. Isaac Illinois's "Twenty Years in Congress." McPherson's "History of the Rebellion." Horace Greely's "The Great War." Prof. McDonald's "Select Documents of United States History" This proposed Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution is known to high school students as the "Crittenden Resolutions." This as is plain, would have left the work of the Abolitionists and Liberal Republicans high and dry. Again in 1876 when the Hayes-Tillen contest raged, the conservative elements in the party were, so strongly in power as to be able to bargain the Negro's security in the South for the electoral votes of Louisiana and other southern states. (See General Tremaine's Sectionman Unassisted.) For it was the solid Negro vote of the South which elected General Grant, both in 1868 and 1872, and after the congressional election of Rutherford B. Hayes over Tilden in 1876, the soldiers who were to protect the Negro in his voting rights in the South were withdrawn. As a Republican conservative congressman from New England said: "It was rob, hog, or die" for the Negro. Then again in 1830, William H Tait, the latest and most reclusive of the conservatives, gained thirst just vacated by that great liberal—Theodore Roosevelt—and laid down the pronouncement: That no Negro would be appointed to a Federal position if the southward objected, and all during his administration the rights of the Negro were trampled upon in the South without protest from the President. So much so that in 1912 each conservative Negroes as the late Bishop Alexander Walters went over to the banner of the southern Demo- Dr. Walters said: "Wilson talked more liberal than Taft acted" Grant was a liberal and did his best to help the Negro, and whatever restraint was put upon the mobriding Ku Klux Klan of the South in 1822 was the result of Grant's order to crush out of American politics this monster in all of its phases. Garfield was a member of the Liberals, and during his short term did all in his power to restrain the South and give the Negro such rights as would enable him to survive the post-reconstruction period. That great and good man, McKinley, was more than fair to the Negro, but was unable in his brief administration to undo the harm which his reactionary predecessors had accomplished heart, a sense of heart before. . The highest development of the liberal element in the Republican party was reached under that great American. Theodore Roosevelt. Not that he was perfect and absolutely liberal, but he sought always during his two administrations to entrench the Negro citizen in his rights as an American citizen and to intimidate and restrain the South by his vigorous insistence of equality to all. It is true that his attitude and decision in the Brownville case did not meet the apprehension of all Negroes, but this decision was reached only after all phases of the situation were balanced, including that of public policy. His invitation to the late Booker T. Washington to dine at the White House is yet unequalled in the effect in raising the prestige of the race in terms of equality and recognition. When a Negro lady was appointed United States Postmaster in the South, and the southerners resented this by burning down the post office. Roosevelt refused to have mats delivered at that rural point until the southern ers decided to furnish a new post office and to accept the same lady as the postmaster if she still desired to retain her position. In the Congress of the United States, such great Republicans as Joseph Benson Foraker carried the banner of liberalism to a high peak. The late President Harding made a magnificent gesture in his Birmingham speech in 1921, but had to be careful of his liberality towards the Negro, for the South had charged during his campaign in 1920 that he had in him a touch of the "tar brush." Now the present incumbent of the Presidential chair has promised to be liberal to the Negro. The Republican party in Washington has two species of demands addressed to it by the Negro. First, there is that represented by those Negroes who helped the party to success in the late election, and who are still of the opinion that big positions, which are usually small when compared to those given to white men, will solve the Negro problem. Second, there is that species of demands which involve rights for the Negro such as the antitwining bill; reduction of southern representation in the Congress; Federal supervision of Federal elections in the South; support for Negro education in Washington, D. C., a kind of Voistad Act which will put teeth in the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution and enable their enforcement. Much of the elements involved in the last species of demands depend for their liquidation upon Congress. It is true that the Republican party has a paper majority in the Congress, but when the recent behavior of certain elements in this majority is remembered, the majority cannot be said to be under the control of the Republican party administration. However, since such liberal Republicans as Borah Norris, LaFollette, Shirinadep, Pepper, Johnson, Couzens and others hope that the forces of conservatism and reaction will be restrained long enough to give the Negro a start towards advancement. The reorganization of the Democratic party may also portend good for the Negro in 1922, and for two main reasons. First, if this reorganization can place men like Al Smith in control, the reactionary Democrats of the South may be brought to see that with a little indication of liberalism towards the Negro, he may be induced to vote the Democratic ticket. Secondly, if the Coolidge administration leaves the Negro dissatisfied in 1922, a repetition of the Bishop Walter's debacle of 1912 may take place. Who knows? And further, men as intelligent in strategy as McAdoo may insist that votes are votes; and a Negro voting in the South might be induced to vote the Democratic ticket since the white South controls him economically This is no dream. The Negro in New York; Chicago. Boston and other cities has voted and will vote the Democratic ticket when sufficient economic inducements and legal protection are offered; for the Negro's political philosophy is changing and he is reasoning that what is good for white men is better for black men. He knows now that politics is not a game of love, played between him and heavenly angels, but a business between him and mere men. And the presumption is fair that the Negro might do political business even with a southern Democrat if he gives him TWO PICKPOCKETS JAILED FOR 6 MONTHS Found guilty of picking pockets, Cornellus West, 26, 122 West 129th street, and William Lewis, 24, 319 West 61st street, were sent to the workhouse for six months and four months respectively, by Magistrate Ryttemberg, in the Heights Court. Both were captured after several shots had been fired at them in the 133rd street subway station by Detectives Wick and Couch, of the Pickpocket Squad. It is alleged that the two were picking the pockets of Richard Ellis, 119 East 17th street, who was asleep in an interrogated condition on a subway station bench. The shooting caused great excitement in the station. West. It is said, ran for some distance on the tracks before he was halted by the shoots. the right to vote and affords him bread. All this talk about Negro domination of the South is not seriously believed by responsible southern Democrats like McAdoo, and certainly was never contemplated by any member of the Negro race. During the last Democrat's convention in New York City, Mr. McAdoo told the writer that this bogey of Negro domination in the South was all played out and overworked. Let us hope that the liberals get control in the machinery of the newly reorganized Democracy. Now that Garvey, the "Negro Moses," is in prison, the American Negro will have to address himself to the task of making himself strong and secure in the land of his birth, realizing as he must that only in proportion to the strength which he has in this, the land of his birth, can he help his brother in Africa or anywhere else to rise in the scale of human advancement. Some may scotch at the idea that Garvey held the attention of any considerable number of United States Negroes. To these it must be said that they have not studied the movement in its ramifications throughout this country nor read the words of praise from the pene of great American leaders like DuBois, Kelly Miller, William Pickens and others. WATCH DISAPPEARS AFTER TIME QUERY Accused of the theft of a watch valued at $50 from Victor Bevans, 266 West 154th street. Richard Murphy, 17, 273 West 146th street, was held in $1,000 ball for a hearing in the Heights Court. According to Bevans, he was at 148th street and Eighth avenue in company with others when Murphy asked him the time. He said that he took out the watch to tell him when Murphy queried its correctness. A discussion arose about the watch and it was passed among the present. Finally it disappeared according to Bevans. Believing Murphy had it, he followed him until he met Policeman Farrick, who arrested Murphy. The latter, it is said, did not have the watch when searched at the station. MRS. BOWERS HELD FOR GRAND JURY Mrs. Ulinda Bowers, 22, 63 West 125th street, was held in 81,500 ball for the grand jury when arranged in the Homicide Court charged with the death of Muriel, 7-month-old daughter of Mrs. Mota Suttles, 61 West 135th street. It is alleged that Mrs. Bowers struck the child from the hand of Mrs. Suttles during an argument over a pair of stockings on March 21. The child dropped to the floor; and was so seriously injured that it died some days later at Harlem Hospital. Arthur Brisbane, 49, 204 West 142d street, pleaded guilty to intoxication in the Heights Court and was sent to jail for one day by Magistrate Ryttenberg. Brisbane was arrested at 2653 Seventh ave uue by Policeman Kline. SICK MEN AND WOMEN Scientist If you need the services of a good doctor, go to the one who does the most good.

FOUR All Colored Fighters Won on All Mixed Card at the Commonwealth Saturday "Black Bill" to Share Honors With British Champ at the Same Club the Coming Week-End Bob Lawson, recent conqueror of Kid Norfolk, added another victory to his list Saturday night at Commonwealth S. C., when he outpointed Mike Conroy, of Rochester, in the main ten-round battle at the local club. Lawson was superior to his man from the start, using a right uppercut to the head that turned his rival's face into a smear before the battle had gone half the scheduled distance, and shooting hard left hooks to the body that shook the upstater in practically every stanza. Lawson weighed 185 pounds. Conroy was 188. Vincent Forgione, of the Bronx, lost the semi-final ten-rounder to Frisco McGale, of Panama, after a fairly interesting struggle. McGale proved to be an aggressive two-handed mauler, who followed his advantages closely, while the Bronx entry did not keep going when he had his rival flashing distress signals. Forgione was grueling a couple of times during the fray, but fought his head clear when closely pressed. McGale outfired—148½ points, half a point less than his rival. Alfred Marasca, substituting for Tony Sirroco lasted just two rounds with Homer Robinson, of Pittsburgh, in the first ten-rounder of the night. Homer unleashed a flock of wild rights and left to his opponent's head at the ball in the first round, and continued to slam them in until the closing moments of the second session, when Marasca went down. In making the landing his head connected with the floor and he was out for several minutes. The bell chimed while eight was being counted over him, but he was still out when the third round came up, and was not revived for several minutes. Marasca weighed 162, and hailed from Uruguay. Robertson was 15814 pounds. Ad Makel, of Washington, had too much of a left hand for Enrique Sarvario, of the Philippines, to contend with, and finished second in the six-heart preliminary. Makel weighed 124.1%, and Sarvario was 123. In the opening four, Alex Moore, 137 pounds, and Joe Martin, 123%, both of Harlem, engaged in a slugfest, with Moore winning the honors. Andy Griffin refereed the battles, with Charlie Dreykopf and Gene Sampson acting as judges. Eddie Munson held the watch and Pete Prunty was the announcer. This Week's Big Bill. Eddie (Kid) Wagner, claimant of the lightweight championship of Pennsylvania, whose knockout over Sid Terris and brilliant decision wins over Pal Moran, Louis (Kid) Kaplan, Tommy (Kid) Murphy, Danny Kramer, Mickey Travers and others makes him one of the outstanding figures in the class which Benny Leonard recently reigned over, promises to give Al Simmons, the English champion, a pleasant surprise party when they clash at the Commonwealth on Saturday night. 1 Wagner, through his manager, Max (Boo Boo) Hoff, is after the gang in the lightweight class and is confident that he'll cut quite a few capers and have much to say to who should wear Leonard's vacated crown. Eddie is going under a full head of steam these days and has been making life miserable for his opponents. He knows he is going to meet a clauses performer in Simmons, who recently gave Johnny Moseley, the colored wizard, a boxing lesson, but the Philadelphia feels sure he'll hurdle the foreigner. When it comes to discussing probable opponents for the two flyweight champions, Pancho Villa and frankie Gonaro, the fans should keep their eyes glued on Black Hill, the unrified-faced bantam and flyweight champion of Cuba, who proved a sensation when he met and whipped Bobby Ruttenberg at the Commonwealth two weeks ago. Black Hill is down on this week's show for a twelve-member with Anthony Taka, the Greek champion, and plenty of action is anticipated. NEW ENGLAND CHAMP READY FOR CHANCE AT TITLE NEW ENGLAND CHAMP READY FOR CHANCE AT TITLE Fine Record Compiled Durin 1924 Entitles Him to Recognition as Contender EDITOR'S NOTE--This is the final 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. New England has always had a spot in its heart for Negro pugilists. Still fresh in the memories of older fans are the wonderful performances of the great George Dixon, that remarkable colored-battler who made his headquarter in Boston when he was at the peak of his successful career. Sam Langford, the bane of all heavyweights not so many years ago, also hailed from the Bean Town. The "Boston Tar Baby" as he was familiarly known to fight fans in the flab, was a distinct static credit to Boston with his spindled ring record. Then there was Joe Walentt. "Joe the Giant Killer" was his nom de guerre, a pseudonym he gained by taking on anyone up to heavyweights while weighing not over the waistweight limit himself. But those stars have now disappeared from the flat farmland and New England, feeling the natural effect of the revival in interest in mixed bouts in other sections of the country, has claimed as its very own the new colored luminary from the Whaling City—"Chick" Bugs, one of the country's leading contenders for a title match with Charlie ("Phil) Rosenberg, recently crowned hantam-weight champion, has endured himself to the fair-minded lovers of boxing by his exemplary conduct both in and out of the ring, his clean, quiet home life, and the fact that his heart and soul are in his work he climbs through the ropes for a battle. Now, what factor has had more to do with "Chick's" rapid surge to the top of the nation's hantam ladder than any other? Consciences and rigorous training, not for one special host but for every scrap, no matter how comparatively unimportant, has told its story. His routine mode of living and love of outdoor exercise are standing him in good stead. Wife heads in his corner have helped out when the battle waned hot. But these are all handicapped to the one big thing—"Challenge" complete transformation from a clover but colorful defensive home in a dangerous, two-faced fighting wildfire, who has lost none of his speed and coverage in the transition. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 1925 --- The cumulative effect of the remarkable run of victories required in his meteoric rise to the top of his division had a surprising effect on this idiot who had been regarded as a natural defensive fighter. No less an authority than Jimmy de Forest, recognized as the world's greatest teacher of pugilists, has said that it is absolutely impossible to effect a complete change in a ringster's style without ruining him. Yet the metamorphosis has taken place in Bugsy and, far from being ruined, he is a greater fighter from every viewpoint than ever before. The psychological effect of victory after victory over hozers who a few months before he had only dreamed of meeting, spurred him on an nothing else could instead of letting the other fellow lead to him and set his own pace for the battle, the opening gong no sooner sounds now than "Chick" is flying across the ring to meet his adversary with a cyclonic burst of flying gloves. There can be only one result when a man fights like that Jack Dempsey and Pancho Villa are good enough examples of that school of fighting. Real levers of the ring game can find a parallel of "Chick"* starting transformation in that affected by Tommy Gibbons, the St. Paul light-heavyweight. Like Gibbons, "Chick" has been in the game many more years than most of the present crop of challengers. Both Gibbons and Suzanne by reason of the excellent care they have taken of their bodies and the absence of auses of their constellations, are old-young veterans. Gibbons always had the name of a clever defensive fighter. He lived up to this reputation by starting off Dempsey for 15 rounds at Shelby, Mont. A few years ago those who said "Chick" would never get very far against their opinion on his lack of aggressiveness and his tendency to lay back and let the other fellow do most of the work. As Gibbons found himself, the true fighting, fiercely aggressive, murderous punching Gibbons, in his recent battle with hid Norfolk in New York, so did Sunga discover that he was unconquerable when he gave Benny Bass the treasuring of his life at the Newport hall park last Fall. A ripping, tearing, tireless ag EXPERT PIANO TUNING AND REPAIRING GUARANTEED DISTANCE NO OBJECT JAMES B. JOHNSON 9001 77TH AVE. Apt. 21 Phone Aug. 1910 rressive fighter, who labbed, hooked, uppercut and swung with deadly accuracy and surprising power, describes the Suggs who confounded the experts by outclassing the Philadelphia lad who was beginning to demand attention from the champion. In this change Sugra has lost none of his speed, defensive cleverness or punching potency. The right hand that made Irish Johnny Curtin hop out of the ring, flattened Tony Thomas, and jarred Abe Friedman loose from his New England bantamwelter championship still retaliates its lethal punch. And when heights it is with a level head, a cool, calculating, resourceful, quickly functioning brain that directs the splendid set of muscles that control the panther-like movements of his perfectly proportioned body, or send messages to the supply sinews that drive those long, powerful arms of his like pistons at his adversary. That is "Chick" Suggs, the gentlemanly little colored lad from New Bedford, who hopes some day in the not too far distant future to have an opportunity to carry New England's fastie banner to its rightful place at the very peak of the bantamweight division. He has every qualification, mentally and physically. He has an absolutely authentic record of victories over boxes of such recognised and outstanding ability as to prove startling in its summary. A boy (in every sense of the word a boy) who has engaged in 37 bouts, winning 26 by the knockout pouts. by 47 by referee's decisions, and an unbroken string of 41 successive victories in his last 41 bouts, engaged in 24 bouts in 1924 without losing a single fight, endowed with youth, strength, speed, courage, keen intelligence and the fighting heart of a worthy and suitable opponent for the bantamweight champion. Only one thing stands today between New England's colored bantam star and a world's brown—a bout to a decision for the title; and that long sought and eagerly-awarded opportunity appears at last about to be realized. Superior A. C. Goes Over the Top With a Bang Arcadia Hall Packed to the Doors and Brooklyn Readily Responded to the Call We could utilize a column in telling about the success of the Superior Athletic Club at Arodus Hall last Thursday evening but it would be superfluous, for, after all is said and done, we could not add anything to what was accomplished. The boys issued a call and, looking at the strong swarming into the hall, you would be of the opinion that all Brooklyn responded.

TAKES: Rube Currie Hurls Hilldale to Win Over Camden Score 2 to 1 Rube Currie Hurls Hilldale to Win Over Camden Score 2 to 1 CAMDEN, N. J.,—April 18.—Rube Currie proved to be a stumbling block to the Camden team when Hilldale traveled to the Camden lot and nosed out the home team before a crowd of 5,000 fans by a score of 2 to 1. Sox Siebold, erstwhile Athletic hurler, who has scored one win over the Hilldale clan this season, essayed to repeat the feat, but the opposition offered by Currie and his teammates enabled the Darbys to tie up the series with their Jersey rivals. Hildale started after Selbold in a savage manner and the home team's hurler was lucky to get over the first inning with but one run scored against him. After Briggs had been thrown out at first to start the fray, Warfield drew a base on balls, Carr promptly doubled and Mackay singled, Warfield scoring. Carr and Mackey, however, were left stranded on the base paths when Judy Johnson and Thomas were the victims of infeld outs. Rube Currie inserted a double in the second frame that scored what proved to be the winning run. George Johnson priced open the frame with a double. Stevens laid down a sacrifice and Currie drove a long double to left that counted Johnson. Biz Mackey had a big day with the stick; the Hilldale backstop took all kinds of liberties with Setbold's stants and singled on each of his first three trips to the plate. On his one other chance he fled out to Curry. Camden injected Gilham into the fray in the seventh innning, he singling on each of his trips to the plate. In the seventh, his single, followed by Sebbole's sacrifice and Dembokhe's single, counted Camden's only tally. Gilham again started trouble in the ninth. He opened up with a single that George Johnson played badly and the runner advanced to third. Curry tightened up and the next three MOST WISE MEN WEAR GLASSES EXPERT EXPERT MANAGER DR.

Favorable weather and a record rule that necessitated ground rule of two bases in the throng that the entire playground field, greeted the Hilldale club on their initial bow of the season. The game was one of the exhibition games scheduled to put the team in trim prior to the opening of Hilldale Park and the ushering in of the Eastern Colored League season, slated for Saturday, April 25, with the Harrisburg Giants. Eddie Bareiss, who recently pitched the Philadelphia Professionals to a win over the Lincoln Giants, was on the hill for the Artisans. The home club's hurrier was the victim of a weird first inning, when the entire Hilldale team batted around. Ten men faced Bareiss in the opening frame and Otto Briggs, who socked the second ball pitched for a clean sling, for the final putout of the inning. This big inning netted the visitors six runs, virtually clinching the game. Five more runs were gathered off Bareiss' slants before he retired in favor of Gilroy in the seventh frame. Successive doubles by Mackey and Judy Johnson tallied the final Hilldale marker in the eighth inning. Seventeen safe blows, including eight doubles, were chalked up by the Buffalo Coach Leaguer, George Carr leading the a brace of doubles and a single, while Bizz Mackey reversed the coat with two singles and a dou- Three Hillside hurriers were slipped into the fray for a like number of fights. Luther, the Chicago southpaw, Balden's latest acquisition to the hurring corps, started the fray and stayed on the rubber three rounds. He disposed of the Artisans in easy fashion for the first two innings, only the allotted six men facing him. Luther developed a wild streak in the third inning, passing four men; this, coupled with Warfield's error and Balden's account for the tianse's scorers, would have escaped without having been scored on, had it not been for Captain Warfield's misuse. With one retired and a runner on first and second, Polish hit to Washington, who tossed to Warfield; the ball eluded the second sacker's grasp and the bases were spared. Phil Cockrell worked the next three innings and held the home team to two hits and no scores. Rube Currie finished the game without further damage. In fact, Currie showed the best form of any of the hurt. He toiled durably, hitting six home runs that faced him were retrained via the arthritic route. Charlie Bates, the Artisans' first snacker, was easily the star for the downtown aggregation. He collected three hits, two of them double, out of four tries to the plate, and made a spectacular play on Briggs line drive, leasing high into the air and pulling the ball down with his backing. Jake Stevens also executed a difficult play on Marse's low line drive in the fifth innning. Namon Washington, the Indianapolis insider, recently signed by the Hilldale team, made his debut in a local uniform. He beat out an infield roller in the third inning and fielded his one chance cleanly in day 3's work.

Interclass Meet at Howard University a Thriller WASHINGTON, D. C.—The first annual interclass track and field meet under the management: of the University of Department of Physical Education at Howard University, Washington, D. C., was run off Thursday, April 9th. It was a thrilling meet with the freshmen and seniors running neck and neck for top honors. The "dops" figured the freshmen to win with an abundance of raw material and it was not far wrong as is evidenced by the score: Seniors 44, Freshmen 42, Juniors 24, Sophomores 16 "Big" Anderson, the mainstay in field events and former captain of the varity track team, was the high point man, totaling 20 points. He was first in the shot, discus, javelin, and hammer. Harry Bright, captain of this year's varsity track team, proved his superiority in, amassing 10 points. Rembert Jones of last year's squad was equally successful in the 100 and 220 yard dashus. The Sophomore. Pendleton, pulled a big surprise when he won the mule event in spectacular style over the Senior's best bet. "Silent" Parker. Warring pulled a pretty nose dive over the last hurdle in the low hurdle race, and this spill saved the Freshmen all three places. The Freshmen were in a class by themselves in the pole vault, with "Texas" Shelvin leading. This kid Shelvin was a real sensation taking second in both the 220 yard and 440 yard dishes over "Country" Hill, who last year promised of being a find in these games. The Student Council will present the winners with a large loving cup which will be appropriately inscribed and contain the property of the Senior Class for one year. This cup is to be awarded annually to the winners of the Annual Inter-Class Meet.

Edgar t. Brown, the 1924 champion, because of his suspension, was not eligible to compete in the Nationals or any other sanctioned tournament and consequently was not considered by the Rating Committee. Eyre Salzman, who was No. 2 in the 1922 and 1923 Tour, and Ted Thompson, has moved up to the place formerly occupied by the New York champion. Tally Holmes, the Washington veteran, is given No. 1 on the winning of the National Tournament, although he lost in the finals of both the Philadelphia and Washington open tournaments. No. 4 goes to Ala Woolridge, former junior champion and the youngest player to ever receive a national rating. The "Wilson" Prize, at No. 6 is worthy of comment, as Anderson in a newcomer in "Big Time Tennis," and also plays with a decidedly unorthodox style. In the women's singles, Miss Iodora Channels, of Chicago, holds No. 1. Despite her defeat by Miss Lula Ballard in the Philadelphia open tournament. However, this defeat was revenged when the Chicago crack decisively defeated Miss Ballard in the National's, Miss Nora Ballard in the National's, and other player with a french style of play, occupies No. 3 position among the women, while Miss Dorothy Radcliffe, of Chicago, is rated at No. 4. Mrs. Wise, of New York, did not compete in the National's and consequently was not rated. It is thought that the ratings this year will occasion very little discussion as the Rating Committee, headed by Mrs. Wise, strictly followed in point system introduced in 1923 of the A T. A. Under this system no player can be rated who fails to compete in the Nationalists and in least one other open tournament The National Tournament this years will take place at Borden-town, N. J. during the week of Aug. 24 to 29 and all of the rated players are expected to enter, along with ex-Champion Brown, who will be fighting to regain his lost lourds. Brown's success will depend, in a great measure, upon the advance made by Ted Thompson. Woolridge and Salch, as these are conceded to be his most dangerous competitors, Brown is now coaching Miss Ballard and the ad-hoc team for the confidence and confidence acquired by her success of last season, the Philadelphia left-handed star may be expected to give Miss Channels a most strenuous battle for first position in the ranks of female tennis players. The ratings follow: 1600 RATINGS OF THE AMERICAN TENNIS ASSOCIATION. Winner of National Tournament finalist of Philadelphia Open Tourn- ment, finalist of Washington, D. C. Tournament.

George Williams and Bessie Brown Put Together Mighty Fine Little Vandeville Bill Which Is the Attraction This Week, With Miller's One Best Bet to Follow for Week of May 4. A long time ago we took exception to a certain writer in the community hanging the toga left by Bert Williams on the shoulders of our good friend Irvin C. Miller. In spite of this opinion, however, we rise to admit that Irvin is one of the best pinch-hitters in the show business today, and we are wondering if it will again fall to him to turn the tide when he comes to the Lafayette. Miller is underlined to bring "Broadway Rustus" to this New York house for the week of May th. In days gone by we have always been able to watch his one best bet and to appreciate it he resurrected the old show and has been doing good business on the road. tion to give us this higher form of entertainment once in a while, but in spite of it all we continue to look forward to that time when community interest will give us that opportunity enjoyed by other races. In spite of the many so-called new things being done around here these days, Miller's "Broadway Rastas" has something about it that leads one to believe that it is a standard article. While playing one of the down town houses, Miller made the mistake of allowing the show to be put on overnight and the result was disaster. --- This time he is coming to town after having taken personal interest in the production and appearing in his old part. "There are things about this show that will always stand out and if Miller has taken advantage of the trend of the times, there are little touches here and there that could be added which would not take away from 'Rastus.' We are included to be believe he has done all that is necessary to bring the show here and top some jone at the Lafayette for many moons. The writer and Miller differ all the time, but after Irwin has been away for a long time we find it possible to give him a warm welcome and for some reason which it hard for us to explain, we look forward to his coming like some long lost brother. The elongated comedian has confidence in his ability to some day hit it big, and possibly it is on account of this Our confidence we find ourselves going along with him even though we are at times on the houseets. You can bet all you own that Levin Miller is guaranteed to do business at the Lafayette time he has been away from New York as long as he has this time. At the Seventh Avenue house this week George Williams and Bessie Brown, record artists, are heading a vaudeville girl assembled by the ever likable George and is given a chance to act as acts standing out were Brown and Stuffing and Dinka and McGinty. Of course Butler's band came into their own, as did all the other acts, but the above two intentiated held our attention in that we must perforce give Daisy Pizzaro credit for always trying and her work with that clever little girl stood out. Williams will present: the vaudeville bill again next week, retaining Butler's Band, while adding some new acts among which will be Marie and Clint, Carter & Clark, Gant & Perkins and Smith and others. Their novelty got the big hand moment they came on and will continue to top the bill all this week and next. Midnight Dramatic Performance at Lafayette National Ethiopian Art Theatre Preparing for Big Event Which Will Be Staged Early Next Month Still battling in the face of obstacles—obstacles which are indirectly reaching out and to some extent retarding the work of the National Ethiopian Art Theatre—the association will stage a midnight performance at the Lafayette Theatre the second week in May. There is no denying that the effort is one of the best made in this direction in many years, and even now the good effect of the work of the Ethiopian School would be seen and better appreciated did we have a local theatre where no talent could be brought forward. The drama for almost five years found success in Harlem, and it was only when the Quality Amusement Corporation passed into the hands of Brown and Stevens that Harlem saw the passing of the drama which had been built up through the splendid work of Robert Levy. Mrs. Downs at the New Lincoln Theatre first made the attempt in a small way, found success and in a larger way, she opened a class of dramatic plays that appeared before houses so named the "standing room only" and had to be hung out outside. There are those at present in the community who, never having interact with the class of colored people who support the drama in the early days, have been misinterpreted certain people in a post- VAUDEVILLE CONTINUES AT THE LAFAYETTE Miller's "Broadway Rastus" Expected Soon tion to give us this higher form of entertainment once in a while, but in spite of it all we continue to look forward to that time when community interest, will give us that opportunity enjoyed by other races. The National Ethiopian Art Theatre comes before the public deserving of whole-hearted support. These people are trying to do something that would have tendency to lift us from the "slough of despond" in which we find ourselves at the present time. Watch for the announcement of the date of their midnight show and go out and send them all the support you can. "Christine of the Hungry Heart" Shows Popular Motion Picture Star at Her Best Of certain appeal to all audiences is "Christine of the Hungry Heart." produced by Thomas Hance from Kathleen Norris' great novel for First National. It combines all the elements found in the big pictures that have made screen hits, theappearance values, Richness of mounting, marvelously real and true acting, brutish and unfailing good taste. More than these, however, is the emotional pull of this wonderful picture. From the moment the first scene is unfolded the spectator is caught in the subtle undercurrent of emotion he feels is stirring the characters. Gradually it becomes more powerful, more compelling and irresistible. And when the great scene of "Christine's" supreme anguish comes, the onlooker's response is complete. He—or she—has become part of the problem "Christine" is facing, and feels the urge to console or counsel the unhappy woman who is learning life's lesson with tears and heartbreak. Never before has such a heroine as "Christine" been shown on the silver sheet. Never before have woman's secrets of the soul been so completely—yet so delicately—bared for the world to see, that the world may better understand—and sympathize—with its women. For "Christine's" history is the story of many a woman whose secrets are hidden forever. "Christine" is the eternal heroine, yet her story is that of a woman of today and tomorrow. Her throbbing drama could not have been portrayed yesterday because her desires, and the mistakes she made in yielding to her desires, would have been misunderstood. Ottie Graham Here for The Big Fashion Show Everything Points to a Big Success for the Utopia Neighborhood Club Friday Night. Miss Otte Graham, of Philadelphia, is in the city to again take part in the big fashion show of the Utopia Neighborhood Club at New Star Casino on Friday night. Miss Graham will do an Indian solo dance. Those who remember her clever interpretation of the "Boll Weevil" at the year's show will look forward with pleasant anticipation to her second appearance with the Utopia. The stage is all set and everything is in readiness for the night of nights when fashion goes on parade, sending forth her to the population. That they will resemble in large numbers is a forceful conclusion, as the sale of boxes and lakes points to another monastery-gathering.

April 16—The Commissioners of the Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs met here in a lengthy session at the Christian Street Y. M. C. A. Colosseol Strothers of Harriburg Giants, Hammond Daniels of Bacharach Giants, Nat. Strong of Brooklyn Royal Giants, George W. Robinson of Wilmington Potomac, Alex. Pompez of the Cuban Stars, Jim Keenan of the Lincoln Giants and Chairman Ed. Bolden of the Hilldale Club were all in their places. Many things of importance pertaining to the welfare of the Association were shaped up by the legislators. The fact that some of the league clubs will play another member team more than ten games during the season, prompted the Commissioners to decide that the first ten games played between league clubs will go down in the official average and any other games in addition will be classed as exhibition contests. Cannady Reports to Harrisburg. With each club making a determined effort to bolster up its team, Colonel Strotherh, pilot of the Harrisburg Giants, threw out lines for Walter Cannady, all around star who has seen much service with the Homestead Grays of Pittsburgh. Cannady has reported to the Colonel's camp and the versatile player has been most at shortest in several exhibition games. The team's homegrown infield appears to be just what was lacking during the past season. It enables Manager Charleston to station George Flall at the hot corner, where he seems to perform to the best advantage "Texas" Burnett, a former team mate of Cannady's has been assigned to first base. Dirk Jackson at second rounds out the infield. Shades of the old Olympic Park were cast over the Protecory Oval when Frank Wickware, a prominent figure in baseball of more than a decade age, appeared in a Lincoln Giant uniform. Manager Judy Gans figures there is still cunning in the aged wing of the veteran warrior and has signed him to balance his somewhat youthful staff. Dave Brown and Jack Taylor will very likely have to carry the breast of the hurting duty for Jim Keanan's team unless Bill Hedge or Bill Jackman, both Texas recruits, come through in a rush. Evans and Judy himself, who does a bit of flaging, since a broken leg and advancing age shot him out of the outfield, form the remainder of the staff. All of the league teams have been polishing up with the whit- independent teams to gox in shape for the league opening. In many instances the success of the Northen Leagues has been varied. However, reverses at this stage of the game will only aid the owners to find the weak spots before the barrier drops in the peanut chase. Lloyd, Dick Landy, Cummings, Shively and other stars. Dave Brown, pitching are for, the Lincoln, will take the mound in the first game and John Taylor is scheduled to pitch the other one. Billiards, King of Indoor Sports Past, Present and Future Billiards, King of Indoor Sports Past, Present and Future By OLD IVORY Now that summer is coming and bringing along, with its baseball and other outdoor sports, billiards, "King of indoor sports" since time immortal, gracefully retires; not to sleep, but to relax and review the past, present and future. For the good of not only billiard and sports, but for the human family is this review. "It has often occurred to me," says Old King Billiards, "and I have often wondered how many liquefies and false billiards to billiards since it became the popular winter indoor sport that it has." I wish to enlighten, if I may, the many billiard patrons, as well as admirers of billiards, as to just what billiards is all about and "how come?" No cleaner and better social game with that congenial spirit of rivalry was ever played than oilillards, whether pocket (pool) or carom billiards. Whether in the home or billiard room, the interest is just the same. Let refresh the original oilillards. How old is billiards? Some say the game was born Irish. and perhaps it was, for like the Irish, it has lived through many a hard battle and stands out today stronger and better and with a wider circle of friends than ever and it is one of the pastimes that has never been bemirched by real players, either in professional or amateur. It was played in Ireland hundreds of years ago, according to MacGeogheen's "History of Ireland," which relates that Catharine Moor, one of "the original king."

The Alpha Physical Culture Club will entertain with a Spring Dance and Sports Review on Friday, May 8, announcing the twenty-first anniversary of the A. P. C. Club, the oldest independent athletic association for Negroes in New York. The annual series of basketball games and contests, covering a period of many years, has inspired a fine competitive spirit in athletics among young men of the community, and evidence of the influence of the work is now apparent in our social service organizations, churches, clubs and private groups promoting athletics and recreational activities. Twenty dollars ($20) in gold will be presented by the club as follows: $10 to the lady and $10 to the gentleman wearing the smallest sport ative representing any one of the popular sports, i. e. tennis, golf, running, bathing, riding, skating, basketball, hiking, etc. Contestants must register on or before May 1, at the clubhouse 139 Wm Street, phone Audubon 1558, and report at a formal meeting to be held there at 8:30 p. m.

Archbishop Hughes very recently, while discussing billiards, said he had heard in the "Confession of St. Augustine," who lived in the fourth century, an allusion to billiards. The people of France, too, claim the game; say it was imported from France to England. The French say the word billiards comes from two French words: "billard," a staff, and bills, a bubble or ball. They are sure that Henrique de Vigne invented the sport 1571. It was, so it is claimed, in 1823 that the leather tip was invented by M. Vigne, a Frenchman, which caused the introduction of fine billiards and high scores in the same year they were introduced in the United States. The English lay claim to the establishment of thoroughbred horses raising, also billiards. They lay their claim on Shakespeare, who was born 1564 and who mentions billiards in Scene 5. Act 2 of his "Anthony and Cleopatra," where he pays a compliment to the game, when Cleopatra chose it over music when to Charmila, her companion the says: "Let music alone let's go to billiards." This was on B.C. Then, too, the game has been claimed by Greece as well as my Ireland, England, France and Italy. Beginning with the next issue I will tell of billiards in America, its development and growth in the last 100 years. (Continued Next Week.) appropriate sportwear is issued.

Livingstone found it hard going with the "Bisons" after the "Bisons" gathered 10 runs in the first inning, knocking Carter out of the box in the very first inning. Livingstone tried hard to hit Downing. Howard's ace pitcher, but had great trouble in doing so very effectively. The game was slow and uninteresting due to the poor diamond. Downing's pitching and the biting of Captain Baylor and his team mates were the outstanding features of the game. The second game was played on April 11, in Fayetteville, N. C. against the State Normal School. This game proved to be a great disappointment to the Howard coach and team, when they found that one official of the school had hired three men to win the game for them who were not even in school namely, Davis and Hotts who were pitchers, and Richardson a catcher. Even with these odds the team fought a hard battle, only to be an unscapped more by poor officiating and unsupermanlike conduct in team and spectators of State Normal. The game ended 11-10, after a long drawn out battle. Roy and Long pitched good for Howard, and the sportsmanship displayed by the Howard players working against odds was outstanding. Easter Holiday Howard was received with open arms by Durham State Normal, and every possible hospitality was extended the team. The game proved to be a semi-classic and before a crowd of 5,000 people the two teams fought a game never to be forgotten by all who witnessed it. Durham got away with an early lead scoring 5 runs in the first fanning, looking as if Durham was to have a walk away, but from that time on the game was marked by real clean, fast bareall.

Then Payne, Howard's left fielder, with two men on, knocked out a home run, tying the score. From here on for the next three innings both teams did all they could to win, and in the third Durham got to Slade and in the second Durham got to "18" and won a game that contained thrills not to be forgotten. Slade's and Stakes' pitching was superb, both pitchers leasing the whole 12 innings. At each place Howard played they found local alumni there to back their old Alma Mater.

With great pleasure I come some wonderful colored women never heard of. You may have white women, such as Joan of others; but there are women just as many dangers and did I could go back to ancient time of Ethiopia and others like her story to the great colored women A paper read recently before the girls and young women in the Katy Ferguson Home. With great pleasure I come before you to tell you about some wonderful colored women. Most of them you have never heard of. You may have heard or read of many great white women, such as Joan of Arc, Florence Nightingale and others; but there are women of the colored race who faced just as many dangers and did much for the cause of humanity. I could go back to ancient times and speak of Queen Candace of Ethiopia and others like her, but tonight I shall confine my story to the great colored women of America. Our first famous woman was Phyllis Wheatley. She was born in Africa about the year 1753. When she was eight years old she was brought to Boston as a slave and was bought by a family named Wheatley, from whom she got her name. She did not know one word of English, but she was so bright that 16 months after she came to America she could speak English fluently and read the most difficult parts of the Bible. The Boston people were amazed at her progress, and they encouraged her by lending her their best books. In a short time she was learning Latin. When 19 years old she had written a 120-page book of poems, which was published in 1773. At the age of 20 she was set free from slavery. She traveled in England, married, and died in 1780 at the age of 25. Six years before the death of Phyllis Wheatley a colored girl was born whose name you all know, Katy Ferguson. That was in 1771 one year before the Revolutionary War. She, too, was born a slave but was set free and married at the age of 18. She was very religious and refined, but at first she was known among the white people for her skill in cleaning fine laces and arranging the food and the tables for dinners. But her greatest ambition was to help fortunate children. In that day as now there were homeless children and Katy Ferguson made it her work to find homes for them. She did not care whether they were white or colored, she helped them just the same. She placed 48 of them in good homes. Then she started something than was greater than she realized. She invited children to her home every Sunday for religious instruction. The churches took up the idea and the great Sunday School movement began. Thus Katy Ferguson started the first Sunday School in New York City. If not in the world, that work should rank her with America's greatest women. Next comes Sojourner Truth. At first her name was Isabella and she had no last name. She took the name of Sojourner because it means a person who stays in one place only a short time; and she sent her life traveling up and down the country working for the freedom of the slaves. She called herself Sojourner Truth because she said God had sent her to tell the people the truth about slavery and its evils. She was born in slave like Frederick Douglass and she worked side by side with him for the freedom of her people. Then came the woman whose life was the most adventurous of all—Harriet Tubman. She was often called the black Joan of Arc. We have not the time tonight to tell her full story. She, too, was a slave and had to work in the fields. She developed such a strength of body that the men laborers often wondered at her. Finally, after much suffering, with her back covered with the scars of hundreds of lashings, she escaped from slavery and made her way to the North and to liberty. She was not content to remain You Too Can Have Beauty "I was not always as attractive as I am now. My hair, which should be woman's greatest charm, used to be coarse and unruly due to dandruff, and my face was sallow and often bore ugly pimples. "I had heard Exelento Quinina Pomade praised on all sides and I got a package and began using it as directed. The results were astonishing. My dandruff all left me and my hair began to get so soft and silky that it was a delight to comb it." "Then I began to use Exelento Skin Soap on my face and the results were equally amazing. All blisters disappeared and my face became soft, smooth and beautiful."

At the constant risk of her life she made 19 trips South and on each trip she brought back a group of slaves whom she had helped to escape. Fully 300 freedmen owed their liberty to Harriet Tubman. She was so dangerous to the slaveholders that they put a price on her head. They offered $12,000 toward to anyone who should kill or capture her. Sometimes, travelling in disguise, she would sit in a railroad car and watch men tacking in posters offering $12,000 for not death or capture. When the Civil War broke on she went South again and was of great help to the Union general by reporting the movements of the enemy. After the war she moved to Auburn, N. Y., and lived to a very old age. A young girl once told her she ought to read more. She said: "Honey, I don't read books; I read men and women." After the Civil War we had a number of great women who left their mark. You have never heard of Madame Selkia; she was one of America's great singers in her time, and could sing opera as well as folk songs. Another really great woman was Pannie Jackson Coppin. She was born a poor girl and became a family servant. She spent her spare time reading all the books in the library of the family she worked for. She traveled with the family, always learning. She grew up and worked her way through Oberlin College. Then she started teaching. Finally she founded one of the most famous schools in the history of our race—the Institute for Colored Youth, in Philadelphia. For many years, that school was the rallying center of Philadelphia and Pannie Coppin put a stamp upon Philadelphia life and character that still remains. One Negro lawyer used to say: "Jacolin University taught me to talk, but Pannie Jackson Coppin taught me to think."

(Closed Saturday) --- tute for Colored Youth, which was better known as Mrs. Coppins School. Some years ago Flora Batson, a colored singer, was stirring the hearts of the people. Only a few years ago Miss Maria Baldwin died. For years she was the principal of the Agassiz School, the finest public school in Cambridge. Mass. In New York City Miss Elizabeth Frazier died recently; she was one of the first colored teachers in this city. Of course, you know of Madam Walker, who won wealth and fame by her system of treating the hair. She started life as a washerwoman and had a very hard struggle. Another woman who was a famous teacher and lecturer is Mary Church Terrell of Washington. Twenty years ago Meta Warrick, a colored girl, won the praise of Rolin, the greatest French sculptor, for her work as a sculptress. Today many colored women are following in the footsteps of those I have mentioned. There is Maud Cuney Hare, of Boston, who is noted as an author. Alice Ruth Moore Dundar has written several books. Jessie Fauser is the late colored woman author. Her novel entitled "There is Confusion" has won the praise of the critics. In singing we have Charlotte Wallace Murray and Florence Cole Talbert in piano playing. Andrades Lindsay and Lydia Mason. The latest colored woman to distinguish herself in educational work is Elise Johnson MacDougall, who is now assistant principal of Public School No. 99, New York City. Another colored assistant principal was Miss Moriches Lions of Brooklyn. And let us not forget Miss Lucy Laney, for whose school a dance is given every year by the Lucy Laney League. In social work we have Miss Grace Campbell whose efforts have been a Godsend to many colored girls. Thus you will see that our women are still going forward and upward. Many of the women I have named tonight had no chance in life than you girls, good of them not as good a chance. But in spite of their disadvantages they made up their minds to do something. You girls, too, can do wonderful things if you work and to live up to the best that is in you. And now, as a parting benediction, I will close with a poem by Phyllis Wheatley: Great God, Incomprehensible.

This year those who come will find themselves in the land of the Arabian Nights Tales. They rub Aladdin's magic lamp; have their fortunes told by "the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter, born on the banks of the Nile"; spend a pleasant half hour at "The Arabian Nights Follies" or a thrilling one in the Turkish haram; they may feast their eyes upon the gorgeous water scenes in the pool or their appetites upon the lucious food served all over the building.

Chairman of the Brooklyn Boys' Work Council. There never has been a time in the history of the world when so many agencies were working against the boy—poolrooms, dance halls, hurdle moving pictures, etc. All of these are holding out facsimiles for the boy, lowering his ideals and leading him into false ambitions. The statistics of our courts show that most crimes are committed by those under 24 years of age, and that over 45 per cent of the boys spend their idle time joaing on the streets. Can we get away from the fact that the boys of today are the seed of our human harvest of The Madam A, L. Parker's Great Hair Grower Will Restore the Strength, Promote a Full Growth and Beautify the Hair. # the next generation? Where are our leaders coming from unless we give this our thoughtful attention? During the week of April 26 May 2 the entire nation's eyes are turned on the boys. When I say boys I mean all boys regardless of race, so you can see we should not expect any other race of people to take any special interest in the colored boys. This is our job. Let's tackle it like real men and women, for too long have we put the job on others. Too long has the home felt that its obligation has been met by feeding and clothing the boy and sending him to Sunday School. In the past month the church has had to stand the awful brunt of the responsibility in many cases when the boy goes wrong. Comparatively few of our boys join the Y. M. C. A., Boy Scouts and other such fine organizations which are serving as character builders. Many of the homes are giving the boy only the spiritual development, little thinking of the physical and intellectual sides, that are just as necessary. Boys are reaching and passing through the adolescence period without the slightest real idea of sex life and the sacredness of it.

AGED MAN KILLED CINCINNATI, O., April 20.—Edward Washington, aged 75 years, died here Wednesday afternoon from injuries he receivow when he was run over by an automobile March 20. By J. H. Oldham. Popular abridged edition, published for the Commission on Interracial Co-operation, 409 Palmer Building, Atlanta, Ga. Price, paper, 15c. The Commission on Interracial Co-operation has just brought out a special abridged edition of Dr. J. H. Oldham's "Christianity and the Race Problem," which is rated among the most important recent books on race relations. Ten of the more important chapters have been lifted from the original volume and put into an eighty-page booklet, with an introduction by Dr. W. W. Alexander, Director of the Interracial Commission. Some of the subjects treated are the Christian view of race relations, the causes of antagonism, the significance of race, immigration, segregation, social equality, intermarriage and political rights. The discussions are dispassionate, scientific and very interesting. Practical suggestions are offered for working out in safety and justice the various problems raised. The author's position in general is that radically diverse races who happen to be in contact should seek to develop parallel civilizations, in mutual respect and helpfulness, each preserving its racial integrity and making its peculiar contribution to the general welfare. Although an Englishman, whose more intimate concern is with the problems of India and Africa, Dr Oldham is nevertheless remarkably well informed as to conditions and attitudes in America. His viewpoint is broad, sympathetic, constructive and thoroughly Christian. The book will give offense to no fair-minded reader, but, on the contrary, will be enlightening and helpful to all. It should be very widely read. Doomed Woman Granted New Trial Doomed Woman Granted New Trial ATLANTA, Ga., April 20.—Mrs. Pearl Booth, under sentence to be electrocuted for the murder of J. L. Arendale, night watchman at the Patterson Lumber Company, on November 8. 1924, was granted a new trial by the Georgia Supreme Court Wednesday. The new trial was granted on the ground that testimony concerning other crimes having nothing to do with the murder charge was admitted as evidence in the case and was irrelevant and inadmissible under the Georgia law. Mr. Arendale was found dying on the floor of the office of the Patterson Lumber Company early at night on November 8. 1924. He had been beaten over the head and his eyes gonged out. The Booth woman was arrested after an investigation lasting several days, and it was charged that Mr. Arendale's watch and a blood-stained sweater were found at her home. She was the first woman sentenced to death under the new electrocution law in Georgia. Columbus Urban League Plans to Aid Newcomers (Pressman News Service). COLUMBUS, O. April 20.—With the opening of Spring and the industrial activity and prosperity that everybody is expecting, there will be a large index of colored people into Columbus, is the belief of a committee of citizens composed of professors from the Department of Sociology of Ohio State University and representative colored citizens here. Problems of employment, housing, recreation, and association underlie the problem of crime, the committee said. This committee presented a plan to the Safety Director of Columbus, J. P. McCune, and the Chief of Police, Harry E. French, asking for the assignment of a colored policeman to serve primarily as a social worker, who would represent city authority as a guide rather than enforcement of law. This friendly officer would make connections with the agencies that would be most helpful, and it would be his duty to build up organizations of friendly citizens in each local community. Through these community organizations considerable emphasis will be placed upon securing employment for the migratory Negro. Director McCune and Chief French appointed Lealie M. Shaw, a man who made an enviable record as a traffic officer in Columbus, to do this special piece of work. This phase of handling the problem in connection with the influx of Negroes was planned and put into effect through the installation of the Columbus Urban League, of which N. B. Allen is executive secretary. (Preston News Service.) LUNN, N.

It is said that more than a score of automobiles dashed out Lewisburg when it was learned that Sheriff Cromer had spirited Wallace away. It is claimed that at Chapel Hill the Sheriff's automobile was less than two miles ahead of the pursuing mob terrorists, which was being augmented along the way, who were in hot pursuit. The canny Sheriff commandeered another automobile—a high-powered machine—at Chapel Hill and was soon several miles ahead of the mobbists. The mob followed in hot pursuit until they reached Nolenville, where they lost traps of the fleeing Sheriff and finally decided to give up the chase. --- Kills Wife, Then Turns Gun on Self Kills Wife, Then Turns Gun on Self (Preston News Service.)

By Ernest Rite McKinney (PRESTON NEWS SERVICE) THE Pennsylvania General Assembly, recently ad- journed, has seen fit to let a Jim-Crow bill dis without passing. This was Sen- tate Bill No. 359 and known as the Cheyney Bill. The purpose of the bill was to make Cheyney Institute into a state normal school. This, of course, would have been only an entering wedge to go separ- ate schools all over the state wherever the Ku Klux or others desired them. I have been interested in this matter of Jim-krow schools for some time. I have tried to find one single argument in their favor. I have heard all the bunkum about Negro children needing the inspiration that comes from having colored teachers. I have heard the venal argument about having something for our girls to do; I have heard the bombast about separate schools elevating the institutional tone of the Narr college course of the liberal citizens, and I have heard the asinine statement that Jie- gro children get very valuable social intercourse in cooled schools. But, up to now, I have heard no single argument in favor of Jim-Caw schools that any free, rational, intelligent black American could make and retain his self-respect. There is no good argument in favor of separate schools, even in places where they already exist, not even in the South. It might be good policy to have them in the South, in its present state of surgery, but I feel that the mainance of this separation only prolongs the South's legacy into her barmen.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 1925 "Free and Equal" By J. A. ROGERS This picture deals with a term marriage. Written and printed of a Nation" was at the campaign, "Free and Equal", producer, Thomas Ince, to raise some reason or other, however that Griffiths' play was meet ten years, to be resurrected S "Free and Equal" is designed pure and simple, but, speaking language of the days before the flat as one of the silly songs of This picture deals with so-called social equality and intermarriage. Written and produced about the time "The Birth of a Nation" was at the height of its coin-collecting campaign, "Free and Equal" was no doubt intended by its producer, Thomas Ince, to rake in some of the kale. For some reason or other, however — probably the opposition that Griffiths' play was meeting — it lay in the attic for ten years, to be resurrected Sunday night. "Free and Equal" is designed as anti-Negro propaganda, pure and simple, but, speaking as it does, the anti-Negro language of the days before the war, it falls as dead and as flat as one of the silly songs of that period would today. But this is by no means the only point where it fails. It lacks all the subtleties and dramatic skill which made the Griffith play famous. "Free and Equal" is not only a hit of the crudest propaganda imaginable, but the construction, the acting, the subtitles, indeed the whole play, bears all the elements of the life of that day. It is like riding in a horse car. It best effect is to produce a snicker. The Story. The play opens with living characters—Negroes—sitting in bales of cotton at a levee in the South. They are acting in the manner Negroes are supposed to, singing "Swance River," and doing the Charleston, etc. In the midst of their merriment a gloomy white agitator appears on the scene and seemingly rebukes them for singing and dancing and being so generally unmindful of the fact that they are "free and equal" with the white man, having been made so by Abraham Lincoln and the Constitution. The Negroes laugh at the agitator, tell him they are content, and desert him in the midst of his harangue. The film story begins here. The opening scene is in the Surprise Club, Paladinjeh, where a typical gentled Southern catwoman is running against the Negro. One Judge, Malcolm Marshall, appears, Negro, takes up the dilemma and buets that the race has never had a chance. The counsel defends the judge and drives the latter up to a Negro into his home. Lawful dream of service, we are told, in seeing himself another Abraham Lincoln—goes to the commencement exercises of a Negro university, and takes the center of the day, one Alexander Marshall, as white as himself, into his home as private secretary on equal terms with his wife and daughter. This daughter—a be-occult innocent girl promptly deserts her brave and handsome lover and falls in love with Marshall. Marshall, however, is a regular ruler who makes love too often to the damnest man she meets and deserts the Lowell home at alights for Notre dame. Judge Lowell in the meantime persists that the Negro is equal to the white man and is hard at work writing a book to prove that intermarriage is perfectly proper and the only solution of the so-called Negro problem. Marshall and the white girl most often in the woods with much killing and one night they stay out until the wee small heath. Here the play drags along until Marshall tries to rape the girl, not in the lonely woods, but in Lowell's home, this for no argument reason, as it turns out in the end that the two had been man and wite for many months. The girl escapes from Marshall's embankment, and locates herself in her room. Marshall, maddened by fear, then attaches the mask, and finally strangles her. Marshall's nobilty is discovered in her dead fingers and he is brought to trial. When the feet of the marriage to the daughter in revoked Judge Lowell is restrained with difficulty from killing Marshall. Getting home he throws his book, advancing into marriage in the sun. Marshall by the way, is also found to have held a Negro wife all along. Here a number 100 new coat will arrive. After the marriage of the daughter to the first love the daughter and the love scene open again. It then turns, out that the whole play was the dream of the white angler in the first love scene, who now thanks God that he has discovered the truth before it is too late. He recounts all he said about Negro equality and urges the Negroes not to pay any attention to anyone who tells them they are equal but to be oblivious to their Anglo-Spanish business. The Negro length of hair and tall him that they had never taken him seriously so fast and that he should go on about his business. The white Negro is played by Josh Richardson, a movie villain of the vintage of 1967. As a Negro he never falls even during the moments of his most horrific social circumstances to convince that he is just an fair to the hero. The attempt to portray Negro characterization is rendered all the more ridiculous as Richardson himself in both heave scenes on the o-called social equality and introduced about the time "The height of its coin-collecting was no doubt intended by its like in some of the kale. For oer — probably the opposition ing — it lay in the attic for Sunday night. med as anti-Negro propaganda, ing as it does the anti-Negro he war, it falls as dead and as of that period would today. white agitator. After the national entoument of "All God's Challan", in which a bona fide Negro appeared with a white wife, Richardson, as a Negro, is hopelessly out of date and fails to stir a single spark of conviction. One suspects that Ine was tired of hearing this pre-war-rule clustering his attic and handed it out of charity to this broken-down celebrity to see what he could realize on it. The New York World speaks of "Free and Equal" as "a dramatic catastrophe." That is far too dignified a summary. It is rather a dramatic "dud." The house Monday night was almost as empty as the skull of Imperial Wizard Bran on a follower of Sister Harrell. There were less than 30 persons in the room, and management of the Anor is wishing that lace had imitated Loweil and chucked the whole thing into the fire. No, "Free and Equal" is dead—so dead that we fear that not even agitation to suppress it. by Negro james will be able to inject a spark of life in it. RECENT HOTEL OLGA GURTEA Dr. Geo. W.

Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., offered to give dollar for dollar. The people of Harlem will be interested to know that they have always obtained $2,500 of the $9,000 which Harlem was supposed to rule. The Execu- sion of this organization has just decided that while work on unmounting these buildings, should have been started before now, it is not warranted, however, in assuming this responsibility until at least $1,500 more is raised. We are sure that the community will stand back of the project and that the money will be raised. In the meantime, there is a more immediate need. For the past year the building at 203 West 190th street has housed the league and co-operating agencies. It has done this inadequately. Now the building, 204, is vacant and we are anxious to begin building a new building that will turn these two buildings into a first-class social center. When the funds are secured the places that are already completed can be put under way and carried to a speedy and successful close. the buildi are quar- ting epoxy, these two less social adies are sane are already under way and suc- ting to have a upon you be commun- itie it is com- feel sure that it seen an extension arried on by m League.

The quartette consists of Will Iam Oliver, first tenor; Wm. Lindsay, sweet second tenor; J. H. Brown, baritone and Clarence Gubb, bass. Assisting artists were Miss Alice Abbey, Miss Alice Browne, Mr. Waring, dramatic leader; Peter Brown, accompanist. COLRED PROFESSOR are reading the plays and compiling the prose for every year. How soon are we going to have this building? It depends upon you. The work belongs to the community. The building, when it is complete, will be yours. We feel sure that you want it and want it soon. You know how much an extension of the present work carried on by the New York Urban League, Henry street, and the New York Tuberculosis and similar agencies is needed. You want the work—only $1,500 is now required. Let every one help! The first affair to be given to help raise funds for the Harlem Children's Hospital will be held in the form of a veneer dance in St. Mark's Hall, 57 West 128th street, Wednesday evening, April 28. A well-made-up card from members of the Lafayette and Lincoln Theatres will be offered, while the music will be furnished by one of the leading orchestras of Harlem. Mru. Nellie R. Cooper, wife of George W. Cooper, the sitter, is chairman of the committee. "CARUSO" BROWN DENIES CHARGE Arthur Brown, 9412 Seventh avenue, known as "Carson," a street speaker, was found in N. Night Court by Magistrate F. Washington on the complaint of George W. Ninan, of 197 West 128th street, who charged "Carson" with using abusive language. "Carson," in his defense, declared that Ninan had it in for him be- TO OUR BEDS dour in the home. Coun- tibit, by re- served granted mur's Civic name. Learn plant. Sew- nunity will be the super- market. An undeniably interesting program of Negro music was given by the baritone, Paul Robeson, and his associate, Lawrence Brown of the Greenwich Village Theatre last evening (Sunday) before a large and enthusiastic audience. Mr. Robeson is a singer of genuine power. The voice is strong for his neon, mellow and soft, but it is his intense earnestness which grips his heart. His Negro spirituals have the ring of the royal valle, they hold in them a word of religious experience; it is this cry from the depths, this universal humanism, that touches the heart. The spirituals, arranged by H. X. Burdgeil, by Lawrence Brown and others, were all well known, but it was Mr. Robeson's gift to make them tell in every line, and first not by any outward stress, but by an overwhelming inward conviction. Sung by one man, they voiced the sorrows and hopes of a people. 1 + News of Churches, Fraternities and Organizations -- : aes | eens Pe | . a | ‘\ Mee UNDERTAKERS and EMBALMERS WOW AT 162-164 WEST (36th ST.

The regular Colored Republican Association of Hudson County, Inc. met last Friday night at Ideal Hall in their regular monthly meeting. The organization only transacted business of vital importance, and adjourned out of respect of the late Dr. George E. Cannon who was a member of the Executive Committee. Appropriate resolutions were drawn and a copy sent to the family. The chairman, Mr. Thomas, read a communication from the N. J. State Republican Conference. A committee was appointed to make plans for the memorial services to be held in Hudson County in memory of Dr. Cannon. Those appointed were C. Blon Jonce, chairman; Mrs. Elizabeth Thomas, Mrs. Alice Byrd, Mrs. Virginia Curry and Mr. Ed. Sears. Candidates for the City Commission were present, including Ex-Judge Philip Greece, Mr. Dowden and others. The campaign is officially opened, and a hard fight is on for the success of the Republican ticket. Mrs. Madaline Johnson, of late Protection Place, Pittsburgh, is now visiting her sister, Mrs. Ellen White, of Prescott St. Mrs. Johnson will soon be joined here by her husband, Mr. Samuel A.

Medical authorities state that nearly nine-tenths of the cases of stomach trouble, indigestion, sourness, burning, gas, bloating, nausea, etc., are due to an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach and not as some believe to a lack of digestive juices. The delicate stomach lining is irritated, digestion is delayed and food sour, causing the disagreeable symptoms which every stomach sufferer knows so well. Artificial digestents are not needed in such cases and may do real harm. Try having saline all digestive aids and instead get from any druggist a few ounces of Bisurated Magnesium and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This sweetens the stomach, prevents the formation of excess acid and there is no sourness, gas or paja. Bisurated Magnesium (in powder or tablet form—never liquid or milk) is harmless to the stomach, inexpensive to take and in the most efficient form of magnesium for stomach purposes. It is used by thousands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigestion.

He is a a York, a graduate of the Uni he received his medical degree. Writing recently to the from his isolated station in B the only physician for 125,000 gives an outline of his mornin What an M.D. Does in Africa By W. W. REID Dr. Arthur L. Piper, of Buffalo, has been in central Congo, Africa, for the past twelve years as a medical doctor under the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He is a native of Knopp's Creek, New York, a graduate of the University of Buffalo, from which he received his medical degree in 1907. Writing recently to the Board of Foreign Missions from his isolated station in Kapanga, Congo—where he is the only physician for 125,000 native tribesmen—Dr. Piper gives an outline of his morning examination of patients: *Patient A comes into the dispensary.* *morning, Miss Brass Wire.* *sit down here and tell me all about your sickness.* "Stomach and head, doctor, stomach and head." "How long have you been sick?" "Since the last moon appeared it began in my hand and went up my arm, then it divided, part went to my head and part to my stomach." After a little examination, the patient is directed into an adjoin room where two nautile girls from the boarding school, in unit forms of bise denim cloth, are waiting to give the medicines or administer treatment to the women patients. "Patient B is next in line. "Where are you sick, Powder?" "Abdman. It is biting, biting, biting. I am sure there are snakes inside. "I am sorry, but the medicine for snakes is all gone, and I don't expect to receive any more for a month or two." "Oh, cannibals! I am undone! What can I do!" "I will give you other medicines which may give you some relief then you return please in a month and perhaps the medicine will have an effect." Patient C had a different malady "Head, doctor." 1 begin by feeling the pulse. "No my hand all right, my head. My whole body is well only my head. I want something to rub on, some of the fire medicine." Further examination reveals the fact that the patient has quite a high fever, and is suffering from an attack of acute malaria. A few specific for malaria, quinine, and our patient feels quite all right. Patient D comes by proxy. "My father is so sick, he cannot come to the hospital. I can carry the medicine to him." "But how can I know what medicine to send him without seeing him? "I will tell you all about him. He is sick in the ribs and in the eyes." "Tell me about his eyes." "His eyes turn around, and he wants to fall down." "Does he cough, or spit up?" "Yes, he coughs much, and spits up blood." Very frequently people complain of their eyes when they are very sick, and feel dizzy and a faint from meningitis or pneumonia. People thought to be the probable disease, and the man is given a hospital hammock, and a workman to help carry in his friend to the hospital, where he can remain for treatment. "E feels and talks like a desperate case." "Doctor, I have much pain in my abdomen. I wish you would split me open and take it out." "Where is your pain?" "Hate." "But that is your spleen, it is enlarged." "Yes, doctor, please cut me open and take it cut." "But we cannot remove the skin." "Yes, I am sorry. What does it?" Than it is explained to him the cause of his trouble, and the fact that he must come to the dispensary regularly for quite some time, it is striking the readiness with which these people commit their bodily welfare into your hands for an operation.

Board of Foreign Missions Kapanga, Congo—where he is to native tribesmen—Dr. Piper ing examination of patients: They have corms around their nacks, and are chained to each other, and are guarded by a soldier. They are men who have been imprisoned for not paying their native tax to the government. In the prison they sleep crowded close together and have hard work to do, and not good food. Many get sick, especially with diseases of the lungs. Patient H had sleeping sickness. In the earlier stages they do not sleep, but show any of a number of forms of nervous symptoms. The diagnosis consists of finding the parasite in the blood or spinal fluid, or more frequently in the glands of the neck. Three marvelous drugs have been discovered, which give us hopes that the terrible ravages of this disease may be stopped and eventually wiped off from the face of the earth as yellow fever has. Case J, I want you to remember. It may be a case of a leg ailment, any other ailment. The patient has been in the hospital for some time, and is now well and wishes to return home. She has learned what is our custom here; she wishes to be polite, and she means what she says, so she stoops forward, and clapping her hands she says—"I give thanks, I give thanks, I thank God, I thank God, for I am well.

Co-operation Bears Fruit in Old Mobile Colored People Get Playground, Nursery and Improvement of Streets MOBILE, Ala., April—A playground for the colored children of this city was dedicated on April 5 in the presence of 2,600 people. The city commission delivered the principal address. The enterprise was promoted by the local interracial committee, headed by Mr. E. B. G. Rickarby and Dr. B. T. Belaw, the white and colored chairmen respectively. Through a member of the committee, the Harmon Foundation was asked for a donation to the project and a grant of $3,000 was made by the Foundation, conditioned on the raising of $1,000 locally for equipment and the assurance of an annual appropriation of $260 a year for maintenance. The committee started out to raise these amounts by subscription, but the city authorities being apprised of the offer volunteered to make the $1,000 appropriation greater. The playground is well located near a big public school, and will probably be enlarged later to the dimensions of a park. A colored day nursery also has just been opened in Mobile, under the auspices of the interracial committee. A competent nurse has been employed and provides made for the care of 20 children. The nursery will be raised by the white and colored people on a fifty-fifty basis. The best people in the city are co-operating in the project. In addition the interracial committee has been active in securing needed street improvements and fire protection in colored areas. The city administration has shown itself friendly and considerate.

A series of The Segregation Terror By WILLIAM PICKENS That segregation case before the Supreme Court in Washington is by far the most terrible threat the colored people have ever faced—it is far more menacing than it was the "Louisville Case" of 1917. The segregation which was overthrown in 1917 concerned the right of legislative bodies, like city council, to pass laws forbidding colored people, or any people, to live anywhere that any other people are permitted to live. But the present case concerns the right of private white persons to exclude colored people and then call on the law to enforce the enolation. If the Negro had lost the 1917 case, he would have been left in the hands of regular legislative bodies; while, if he had been in the Negro case, he will be left in the hands of the devil, for he NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 1925 annual room interiors, an English rose garden and a loan exhibit of exceptional architectural designs, prepared by the most celebrated members of the profession, are among the striking features. In accordance with this code, each division of the counties, and the county service committees, is cooperating in a campaign against unscrupulous contractors, poor construction practices and filmy materials and equipment, by showing the public the right way to build a house. A house in the process of construction, presenting striking lessons in how a foundation should be laid, plumbing installed and showing the proper use of various materials, will be featured in the program designed to cut down on the enormous annual waste in residence construction. Nor is the exposition confined to encouraging the buying and building of new homes, but urge those homes already owned be renovated and modernised. Such a campaign according to the Committee of Administration, will increase the value of the property improved and greatly alter the appearance of city streets.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is trying to win this case and defeat this worst of all threats against the Negro's liberty of life. If they win, every Negro wins; if they lose, every Negro loses. Era, it makes no difference whether he believes you think of any officer of the association, from the justice to the chairman—it he thinks well of his own interests and the interests of his children, he will help to win this case. This is a cause in which you can fight for the love of nobody but yourself, if you wish to see it that way. WORKMAN ASKS $75,000 FOR INJURIES Declaring that through the careless operation of a winch, used in loading freight into the steamship Finland. January 25 last, he was struck and hurled into the vessel's hold and seriously injured, Henry Jackson, longshoreman, of 137 West 143rd street, began suit in the Federal Court for $75,000 damages last week. In his complaint, prepared by his counsel, Abraham Oberstein, of 119 Nassau street, Jackson says he was at work on Pier No. 61, North River, when the unusual accident occurred. He declares that he was an inmate of New York Hospital until a few days ago and that his injuries have incapacitated him from working the rest of his life. Attorney Oberstein charges that the steamship company was negligent in not providing a safe place for Jackson to work and in failing to give proper signals of the movement of the huge winch, to enable workmen to avoid being struck by the heavy loads it carried. WILLS A MENACE TO WHITE SUPREMACY. And now comes the announcement that Jack Dempsey has "not" retired, but at the same time, accompanied by his movie nose and his movie wife, is planning on taking an extensive honeymoon trip to Europe, same to be concluded some time late this summer. And with this statement goes a glimmering the last hope of those over-optimists, who against all the statements of critics, who have watched the "dodging" champion's actions for several years, firmly be believed that Willa would sooner or later get his chance. They based their assumption on the fact that the public's idea of "fair play" would eventually force the match. They labored under the same hallucination that Willis and his ancient manager, Patrick Mutlin, labored under. But did they go back still further and realize that public opinion is, in reality, nothing but a constant repetition of news? And did they realize, that after all is said and done, Finance rules News? True, there are some fair and impartial sport writers who are willing to give the "Brown Panther" the due he so justly deserves. But to the majority of the sport writers, bigoted and narrow-minded creatures that they be, Wills looms not as a logical opponent for Dempsey, the only opponent there, but he is nothing more nor less than a living incarnation of a "measure to the supremacy of whiter." Fair play! It's the boast! Inhield all their screen-screen of fair play and the deep-rooted fear that Wills, Neil may beat Dampsey, a white mag.

We seek none now, but we do desire to correct any erroneous impression which may have been gleaned after reading the editorial in the New York Age of last week, following our own editorial of the previous week commending Major Moton for his part in raising a five million dollar endowment fund for Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes and recommending that he be awarded the Spingarn Medal. THE AGE. IN PART. SAYS THAT: More recently The Amsterdam News of this city announced on its first page, in a headline, that "Dr. Moton Rings True," while its back page carried an editorial in black face type crying. "Award Dr. Moton the Spinginger Medal." Coming from sources that have indulged in personal vilification of the Taukegee principal and nearly all of his previous acts and motives, this change to fulsome eulogy is rather startling. As Dr. Moton has not changed either his actions nor his speeches since his opponents have changed their time the change must be in them. It may be, to put a charitable construction on this sudden awakening, that the editors of these newspapers have just had their eyes opened at this late day to the great work that Dr. Moton has been doing, sometimes under unfavorable conditions. It may be that the Age was better informed as to his work than some of these other papers, or that it had a better understanding of the obstacles that Dr. Moton had to co. beat. The fact that his campaign was dislaborate, futile, but still in millions of dollars as contributions may have opened the eyes of our contemporaries to the lasting character of his work. The lesson to be drawn from this sudden awakening to the value of Dr. Moton's achievement is that our editors should not be too cock-sure in their judgments and criticisms. These captious critics may have been following an old practice of ambitious editors, in seeking out the most conspicuous target in the shape of a public character and bring at it, in the hope of attracting them. But there is a decent way of playing even that time-honored game. The editor may differ with his victim on questions of public policy, without converting his criticism into personal vilification or violent abuse, as some of Dr. Moton's critics have done. So long as criticism is couched in parliamentary language and is a question of measures and not of personality, the critic can change his tune without inconsistency. Courtesy and the preservation of the amenities of civilized interpersonal more often being in agreement with a policy or the decision. The sudden reversal of these editors in their treatment of Dr. Moton shows that they have either been sleepy for some time, or that their previous criticisms were based on ignorance or malice. FIRST: The comment published on the first page under the heading "Colorful News Movies" is contributed material which we publish each week, but which may or may not voice our own sentiments on this or any other question. We accept it for publication because, whether or not we agree with the writer, his column is always breezy, informative and in line with our policy to present not only two sides but all Knoxville Wins Debate Knoxville College won the annual triangular debate between Moravian College, of Atlanta, Talladega College, of Talladega, Ala., and Knoxville College, of Knoxville, Teen., which took place the evening of Friday, April 10. The question debated was the ownership and control of the coal mines by the Federal Government. The question was debated by the affirmative team on the home platform, and attended by the visiting negative team. The Knightsville College affirmative team won a three-to-one losing decision against the Tulane negative team at Knightsville. sides of a public question. Can the Age lay claim to any such policy? NEXT: We have suffered no change of heart as regards Dr. Moton, have never sought to vilify him or any other person in public or private life, and still believe that the Veteran Hospital at Tuskegee now has an entire Negro personnel not because of him, but in spite of him. We were not afraid to voice our convictions at that time nor would we be ashamed to reverse our decision should any knowledge come to us to the contrary. WE THANK GOD that we are still able to change our mind and live in the present without regard even to our own preconceived ideas of men or policies. Can the New York Age say as much? BILLUPS' COURT BILL THE FATE of Assemblyman Pope B. Billups' bill, calling for a redistricting of the Seventh District of the Municipal Court, is still in doubt. In a way, it is a test for Governor Alfred E. Smith, who while disclaiming any special consideration for the Negro, does proclaim in loud terms that he is fair to all elements comprising the citizenship of the state, without regard to race, creed or color. GOVERNOR SMITH has failed lamentably to convince us of his fairness. On the other hand we have outstanding instances of unfairness in his attitude towards the Dempsey-Wills fight and his more recent appointment of a white colonel to command the 369th infantry of the National Guard. Nevertheless, he received larger support in Harlem than any Democratic candidate for governor has ever received,' and for this reason we have been anxious to record any act of his which would prove him worthy of this support. WE DO NOT HOLD that the Billups bill would be of exclusive benefit to the Negroes of Harlem by enabling them to elect a judge to the Municipal Court Bench. The territory embraced by it runs from One Hundred and Tenth to One Hundred and Fifty-fifth Streets and is, by no means, a Black Belt. Within its boundaries dwell Republicans and Democrats, Jews and Gentiles, colored and white citizens, in such numbers that the election of a Negro judge would still remain to be effected. True, we would like to see a member of the race elected to the bench, but the Billups bill does not make this an absolute certainty. We have seen Negroes vote for white candidates in preference to Negro candidates of a certain caliber, which means that the Harlem Negro electorate would not elect a Negro to the bench solely on the grounds of color. MR. BILLUPS is as justified in seeking to have enacted a bill solidifying the Negro vote as politicians of both parties have been unjustified in cutting up Harlem in such a way as to always leave the balance of power in the hands of white politicians. No other racial group of citizens in the Greater City is denied representation to the extent that Negroes of Harlem are denied it. And if the Billups bill has a tendency to accord the Negro citizen a privilege he has been unjustly denied, Governor Smith will attach his signature to it. ville, and the Knoxville negative team won a two-to-one decision from the Morehouse affirmative team, giving Knoxville a clear title to victory. Knoxville College has won five out of six intercollegiate debates in the last three years. HAMPTON, Va., April Dr. Wilmera Gorman, assistant professor in the history of education, Tuskegee College, Columbia University, who was recently introduced by Dr. James R. Groun to the Hammond Institute workers and students at the Sunday evening church service held in Columbia. Hall, spoke on "The Transformer Power of Ideas." Doctor Goodwill, after an inspection of the - Institute, addressed a general assembly of the School of Home Economics, of which Mrs. Buncey W. Purcell is the director. Doctor Goodwill, in her chapel address, expressed her profound belief in this age and an age of remembrance of the human spirit. She referred to Hampion Institute as the realization of a dream. She discussed briefly the books of Proverbs on work, goodwill and industriousness and the industrial lessons for the workers, and models of life more beautiful and human for those who work in industrial contexts. : Self Training J. OTHO GRAY. The time is almost passed when a person of intelligence can advance a patched up excuse to cover the lack of a reasonable degree of education. There are so many incentives to study and such plentiful means to pursue studies any one with the basic groundwork of reading and writing can acquire a knowledge of cultural matters that will greatly improve every department of his life. This does not apply to the young man or woman alone, but almost equally as well to those of mature years who are desirous of something better in their mental lives. Age is no barrier to getting more education if there is a healthy regimen of living and such earnestness of purpose as will supply energy for persevering effort. Later years usually develop a slowing down of faculties but this natural tendency to inertia is partly psychological—the belief that one is too old to learn or to acquire new mental habits. If the mind is kept interested in some subject and the body in a sound healthy condition the faculties will retain a considerable degree of elastic activity—quite enough to justify thoughtful people attempting further self-training. It all hinges on the depth of enthusiasm and will power brought to bear and steadily applied. No man is ever too old to learn if he feels within him a real desire for a wider horizon. These are days of keen competition and widespread diffusion of knowledge and this requires that a person know his subject not haphazardly, but in an orderly and progressive way. It is to be expected that many admirable people may not be able to attend college or even finish high school. This need not cast a damper on aspiration, for the room you are in may be a university that, within its scope, can be made a worthwhile substitute for an educational institution. I could enumerate an array of notable men who were deprived of college training, but overcame the handicaps by preserving self-training. Although the value of collegiate study and associations is great and always eminent, deprived students that you don't get a creditable result unless you attend one, for you can do much yourself if you set about it with system and industry. If rightly guided a patient plodder at home will be able to hold his own and even brilliantly with highly educated people. In studies like literature, history and philosophy a thoughtful student of gneissine calibre may attain a striking quality, although living in a small town, if he has a diversity of good books, knows how to think, and mentally lives in an atmosphere of culture. It's just a matter of knowing what you want to do and endeavor to do with all the energy and resolution you can summon. The mind not merely liking the memory with a string of dates and facts; but storing the mind with such knowledge as will enable it to form adequate conceptions of life and its meaning and express these in efficient and constructive activity. It supplies a means to formulate a philosophy whereby to live and to better interpret the values of living. The secret of successful self-training is pithily summed up in this quotation from one of Bacon's essays: "Reading makeeth a full man, confluence a ready man, and writing an exact man. Books of oery topical treatises, of which the price is as to be an irresistible lure to the serious minded. Supplementing books are the four powerful aids—qbersion, reedition, discussion and experience. The highest training in substance teaches one how to utilize these so as to get the most out of them. The greatest preservation is great if carefully made. Learn to observe closely everything your eyes rest upon. The accurate observation of little things has led to important discoveries. What you learn discuss with your friends, for argument and discussion give facility to speech and quick reasoning and help to drill the subject more deeply in the mind. You have two minds and a third one which is sealed, but can be opened under certain conditions, so you are amply equipped to think. Develop your mind so it will stand on its own legs. Independence in thought is a Pearl of great priori and something to indicate intelligently enough personal vitality and it is from such minds that all achievement flows. The calm of reflection will enable one to comprehend many truths. Make your life as varied as possible. Don't fall into a rut and the colorless monotony of more routine. Take an interest in everything. The wider your interests the greater will be your stock of information. Curry a notebook to jet down stray thoughts. Some day you may think something of moment so be prepared to write it down before inspiration fails and if there is inspiration you may come across valuable bits of information. If you know how to ask questions carefully. One of the modes of subtraction is to it it needs to be worked in the mind. What is learned through thought-affect is not easily understood. I have been impressed with some pective' B. A.'s who are shockingly shallow considering them from a scholastic standpoint. The home student can be thorough within his limits and thoroughness is a quality many university students do not attain to in any subject they presumably study. If you don't believe this, talk some real history or psychology to the average student and you'll probably have it confirmed. I believe in knowing your subject, not in juggling words. It requires extra effort to reach real excellence, but that extra effort intelligent people have a right to demand from all who seek recognition on the score of achievement. Every man is fitted for some special study. If you have a mind for botany then botany is your field. I once worked on a job with a man who liked snakes. He made them and claimed they understood him. Apparently this man would successfully handle snakes. No matter how odd or unusual your field is that is the thing you should concentrate upon. If you can do anything learn to do it so well you can stand out. Oh, it's great to see someone who can do something with a master hand—with the assurance and authority that be speak a thorough knowledge of the subject! Ignorance is, to be feared, for it cannot weigh its motives nor see things in an intelligent light. Ignorance is to be pitted for the beautiful and inspiring treasure of wit, science and philosophy are denied it, the wonders of nature are unknown, the sublime and aesthetic are utterly unfelt and it lives in a narrow, monotonic sphere from which true light is excluded. All that God and man have done remains unappreciated and incapable of being justly welied. How barren and uninteresting must be minds which have not a knowledge of these things. Ignorance never settled a question, never inspired a man or people, never made a great move. Plato, the great philosopher, once aptly remarked: "It is better to be unborn than to be untaught, for ignorance is the root of all misfortune." Confess, the sage China said: "ignorance is the greatest of all night without moon or day." Isaak Walton counselled: "to long as they art ignorant be not ashamed to learn, Ignorance is the greatest of all infirmities, and when justified the chiefest of all follies." Ignorance is the mother of fear and久 Nurse of prejudice. There is no substitute for knowledge. Ignorant people cannot be apprised at the value of cultivated people. It is not too much to say the highest virtues, the truest capacities are found among the intelligent and hopelessly seldom with the illiterate. Character alone cannot alone for ignorance, for true character is the result of overcoming the self and actual temptation and this is achieved only through knowledge and experience. These things being established the consequence follows—ignorance must be removed and replaced with intellectual development. The ignorant student must matter what effort it may bring. If a man were to come to no and inquire how to go about improving himself I would suggest the following outline of home study: the daily reading of Works "Outline of History" which covers the ground well enough for the general reader, though a critical student would probably prepare a work of more detailed analysis. I would also suggest a good history of the United States and a deeper study of old Greek and Roman history after the "Outline" was carefully read and discussed. I am one individual who to the end of my life will remember this bit of advice into the heads of returned people—study Greek and human history. Then you learn in the elementary magnificence of Book Chat by MARY WHITE OVINGTON "Black Cameos" By R Emmet Kennedy. Published by Messrs. Albert & Chaz. Bonl, 30 West 6th Street. New York City. Price $2.89 Postpaid. "BLACK CAMEOS" are sketches of black people living in southern Louisiana and whom this author, a white man, speaks of with kindly affection. Mr. Kennedy tells us in his preface that he began to collect Negro spirituals at the age of thirteen, "and it was easy work, living, as I did, in a small town, where the primitive types of Negro were all about and showed great willingness to let me take down their songs and comments and conversations." This book is made up of notes, bits here and there, songs, sometimes with the music, amusing anecdotes. It takes its place with Gonzales" "Black Border," the collection of Gullah tales. Athens and Home when the world looked to them for everything pertaining to culture and genius. This is the knowledge you need and you can't get too much, for it represents the approach to true cultivation in its essence and nobility. If you could mentally live in the age of Pericles when Athena was at its height of inductual splendor what a contrast it would be for life as Harlem knows it. I would also advise reading Thompson's "Outline of Science," which covers the scientific field in a profound way. I would recommend the purchase of a set of the "Harrvard Classion" which sifts the field of literature with scholarly discrimination. These are the kind of books the masses should read—the cotton picker, barber, porter, seamstress, as well as the doctor and lawyer. A good textbook on English and American literature and one on economics should also be studied and also biographies of great men like Napoleon, Lincoln, Washington, Carnegie, Pulitzer, etc. Have a good dictionary of at least 100,000 words at your sbow so that you can read them easily and never let a word get away from you. A good encyclopedia should also be on the bookshell. Then you are equipped for the many little questions that may arise in your reading. Any man or woman who will take the paints to cover this outline of self-training at home will must surely splendidly acquire the essentials of an excellent education in five years. Five years' study is nothing to worry about. I have been studying and thinking daily for 25 years: can't see any end in sight after 25 years more. Does this program of study appeal to you? That will get the stuff in you that makes you build and builds strong nations. Neither life nor destinies care for any man, he must make his way by sheer grit and doggedness not only in forging his fate on the physical plane, but in developing his resources on the mental plane. Knowledge alone is true power. True knowledge always implies character, for you cannot contact the wonder of things without being uplifted. No one can be happy or useful in the best sense without the culture and discipline of education. Of the two kinds—that which is given himself—it will frequently be found itself—it will frequently be sometimes the more valuable. Book MARY WHITE "Black by R Emmet Kennedy.

This book is and there, song, sometimes dotes. It takes its place wi the collection of Gullah tales Mr. Kennedy's preface is so pleasing, his emphasis on the Negro's habit of "thinking in pictures," his naive, unharmed imagination, "h1 nature disregard for society and government," his graceful elusions and gentle eliminations of any harsh connotations," that one has a right; perhaps to expect more than one receives in the bulk of the book. For the stories that he tells us, while probably wholly charming when recited by a master of the dialect, are not extraordinary when read to a Turtle. That is upon the minutes of misunderstanding of English. Take, for example, this one, called "Clivarly." The Saturday night "tresh fry" was in full swing. Everybody was having a good time except one laiky, lonely looking colored girl sitting over in the corner of the room. She had been a wall flower all evening. After a while a tall, dandy, black velvet completed young colored man walked over to her and said: "Some me, Mia young lady, but isn't you' name Mia Maga nella Johnson?" "The, oh, mah, mah name Mia Maga Johnson?" "Well Mia Maga Johnson, and program all yet?" "No, oh, David, know what program all did?" "No, oh, all I had to get the owner was one nice of woman utter." It is in the collection of spirituals that the writer comes to to have some good vignette written. There are 20 Keeping Fit-:- BY E.

THIS condition is syphilitic disease inherited from one or both parents. The baby is born with syphilis. The Bible speaks of this as the "sins of the forefathers visited upon the children even to the third and fourth generation." In the early years of civilization such inherited diseases could be excused and sympathy extended to the parents, because the blessings of modern medical science and researches these "ancents" had not. They had no "Wasserman Test" for the blood. The father and mother knew not when syphilis coursed in their veins and arteries. To them "innocence was not bliss," but its results were at least excusable. To-day congenital syphilis is a crime, committed by one or the other parent upon the affected child. I believe that before married persons have children, each should have at least a "Wasserman Test."

This matter of "physical and mental Congenital syphilis is prevalent to day. Many a baby has this germ of syphilis in its blood and many types of this illness in young children are seen. Some of the most prevalent are children with snuffles; patches of ulceration in the mouth; enlarged spleen, ulcerations on the skin; eruptions on the skin; ulcers on the eyeball (called keratitis); poor nutrition; enlarged head; enlarged liver; swelling of eyes; pediatrical eye problems; ulcerations; eczema; defective teeth; jaundice soon after birth; inflamed syphilis; sore throat; hoarseness; discharging ear. These symptoms are not all present in the same baby, but any one or more of these symptoms is suggestive of congenital syphilis. When such symptoms are present in an infant or young child advice from a physician, baby or child clinic should be sought, a proper examination is thus made and a blood test taken. Only by such methods can the proper treatment be given. Intravenous infections of neosalivia Chat BY OVINGTON "Gameos" by Messrs. Albert & Chas. Bonl City.

In his preface Mr. Kennedy tells us "the spirituals or hymns, or 'ballets' of the Southern Negroes, are original productions which the authors go about singing from church to church, the congregations learning them by word of mouth. If they become popular, the authors have them printed on narrow strips of paper, and they are sold to the church members at five cents each. Many of them attain to almost gigantic proportions in number of stanzas, 15 to 20 being considered a small number to tell a Bible story with every intimate detail."

C., April 29.—North Carolina, which, together with its political subdivisions, has spent approximately $15,000,000 on four education during the four years 1924, 1925, 1926, and 1929, has become a model for British educators. James W. Q. Dougall, who will become director of Negro education for the British Government in Kenya Colony, East Africa, next fall, will arrive in Raleigh shortly to study North Carolina methods. He will spend the remainder of the present school year here in preparation for the work to which he will be assigned. He will be associated with Prof. N. C. Newbold, director of the Division of Negro Education, which is maintained as a part of the State department of public instruction. North Carolina's expenditures for Negro education have in the last few years made large appropriations to the Negro Agricultural and Technical College at Greenbore, and to the four normal schools, for both maintenance and permanent improvements. Pref. Newbold has been advised that Teachers College of Columbia University next winter courses on Negro education and accepted an invitation to conduct a lecture there.
