Daniels, Negro porter of the Pullman Company, as he refused first aid of the doctors who sought to ease his scalding steam burns following the horrible wreck, on June 16, of the Erie Special, near Rockport, N. J. The physicians heeded Daniel's command and upon returning to his side found the Negro hero dead. He had given his last full measure of devotion that others might live. While memories of Daniel's funeral are still fresh, there comes news of the bravery of a nine-year-old colored girl of Hagerstown, Md., who, on July 1, flagged a Baltimore & Ohio passenger train just in time to avert a fifty-foot drop down the mountain side, saving, perhaps, the forty precious lives on board. The name of the little heroine has not yet been learned, but Engineer Albert B. Haller states it is probable she averted a terrible loss of life. Tom Lee, Oscar J. Lanlels, the nine-year-old girl of today. Roberts and his comrades of World War fame, Crispus Attucks, and all the way back to Simon the Cyrenian, who helped Jesus carry the cross, black heroes and heroes have adorned civilization's exploits of bravery. In war, in peace, and amid trials, when the souls of men are crying aloud, black men and women have risen to the supreme test, when one faces the terrible privilege of laying down his life for his friend. And yet there are those like General Bullard who say that the Negro is a coward—only half a man—and they take care to give him only half a man's chance. The color scheme, a barometer of alleged superiority, measures these black heroes and heroes and their kinsmen, not by their deeds, but by their color. History, though, just as before, is bound to repeat itself, and restore to the oppressed of today the fullness of their rights on the morrow. This dawn is what "supremists" fear most, lest the iron hand of retribution should clutch them within its grasp. Idle fears are these for those who flee when no man pursues. The prophecy is merely that Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hand—and that is all she is trying to do, in wrecks, in wars, in peace, and into the hearts and lives of her fellow-helings. And sooner or later the "beliefts" must come to know that God's prophecies never fall. Kapital Klan Kapers PRESS reports are heralding the August parade of the Ku Klux Klan, to be held in the Nation's Capital; and soothsayers are advancing divers motives for the 150,000 klansmen who will march up the famous Pennsylvania Avenue, triumphantly traversed by General Grant, Admiral Dewey, Presidential heroes and other national characters. Some say the Klan craves publicity; others, that it is trying to create a halo of psychological strength equal to that which hovered over the recent parade of the Holy Name Society. And fatalists say that the Klan is bent upon letting the world know that it is, at least, ostensibly in favor in America. In the wake of press announcements protests are beginning to pour in upon the District Government against the public spectacle of the invisible Empire. The local N. A. A. C. P., headed by the stalwart Lafe M. Herrhaw, has vigorously protested the klan karavan. And rumbles are being heard in Roman Catholic circles and in the synagogues. Others, alleging that public interest is being jeopardized, are registering their adverseness to the coming memoirs of reconstruction days. Just how much pressure the protests will (Continued on Page 2.) Large Single Store to Let 118 West 135th Street Rent $90.00 Suitable Any Business WALTER L.

QUARTERS IS SOUGHT Unpaid Interest and Taxes Invalidate Mortgage Held by Sophie Jacquin for $6,000; Ousted Officers Co-defendants Through her attorneys, White and Case, of No. 14 Wall street, Sophie Jacquin has brought an action against the Universal Negro Improvement Association, 56 West 135th street, in which she seeks to foreclose a mortgage bond for $6,000 on the property now occupied by the organization. The action is dated June 4 and is returnable within 20 days. Mentioned also as defendants in the action are Samuel Shillonsky, Cyril A. Critchlow, Adrian Johnson, John Sydney de Bourg, William Isles, John W. Fowler, Gabriel E. Stewart, William C. Matthews, Richard E. Warner, Thomas W. Anderson, Emmett L. Gaines, William H. Ferris, Ellie Garcia, Rudolph Smith, A. Leemington Woodley, Herbert Miller and James O'Mealy. It is significant that most of the defendants mentioned above have severed their relations with the U. N. I. A. and for one cause or another secured judgments against the association. The mortgage was executed in 1911 by one George W. Powers for the American Mortgage Company and assigned to Mrs. Jacquin. In February of 1928 it was extended to January, 1925, with the express agreement that it would become due after default of the payment of interest or taxes for 20 days. According to the plaintiff the interest has not been paid and no taxes have been paid since 1921. If the plaintiff is successful in prosecuting this foreclosure the once powerful U. N. I. A. will be bereft even of its present headquarters. The obligation on its property in 133th street, where Liberty Hall is located, is not mention in any way in the action. The Black Cross Line's steamer, the Booker Washington, was labelled soon after it reached port for unpaid bills. It, too, is a subsidiary organization of the U. N. I. A. Walter Bowen, 23, 1415 Longfellow avenue, met the description furnished to police authorities of the man who had been lettering around the basement of the house at 1016 East 176th street, which was later set on fire Friday night. He was held in $33,000 for further examination when he was arrested before Magistrate Vhale in Morrissia Court Monday morning.

Wednesday morning, according to several persons who say they witnessed it. A large crowd gathered about the corner when Patrolman Nolan of the 158th street station ordered Davis to move on, after punching him in the side, they said. Davis was intolerated and unable to give any explanation for his peculiar action and refused to move, it was alleged. He was then attached by two other patrolmen. The prisoner could not produce any witness when he was arraigned before Magistrate McQuade in the Heights Court Thursday morning and was fined $6. The fine was not forthcoming and Davis went to jail. PRESIDENT COMMENDS WASHINGTON JOURNALISTS Sends Letter of Congratulation to Crispus Attucks Press Association on Removal to New Clubhouse. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 6.—A letter of commendation from President Coolidge was among communications of congratulation read at the celebration of the Crispus Attucks Press Association, which was held last Wednesday night, incident to the recent purchase of a new headquarters at 1502 Thirteenth street, which was attended by more than 100 prominent citizens. The press association, which represents 34 colored publications throughout the country, will soon move into the new headquarters. Accompanying the President's letter was the gift of an autographed photograph, which he presented to the members of the club. The association, named after Crispus Attucks of Boston, the first colored man killed in the Revolution, is said to hold a special interest for the President. "Uncle Joe" Cannon Heard From. Others who sent letters and autographed photographs were "Uncle Joe" Cannon and Postmager-General New. A number of other distinguished persons are also patrons of the club. They include C. Bascom Sleimp, Commissioner Cuno H. Rudolph and Representative Frank Murphy. Several speakers addressed the meeting, among whom was Isaac Gans, former president of the Washington Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Gans highly praised the club and declared that its influence and ideals would be beneficial to the national capital. He urged that the organization lead the colored race in its development and work for tolerance and co-operation between the white and colored races in the national capital. The aims of the association are to unite the colored people in their progress and to stimulate achievement. It is the hope of the organization to engender a spirit of friendliness and close co-operation between the white and colored races and to bring about co-operation between white and colored publications. Assistant District Attorney James J. O'Leary praised the club and launched an attack on the "post-leaps of fanatical reformer." He charged that they were constantly interfering with the rights of people and would be the cause of a great deal of trouble. He declared that they claimed in their ideas a panacea for everything and were forbidden their opinion on everybody. Nine Year Old Girl Prevents Train Wreck HAGERSTOWN, Md., July 6. Congratulations are still being received by a nine-year-old colored girl for preventing the wreck of a Baltimore & Ohio Railroad train carrying forty passengers Thursday. The little girl flagged the engineer just in time to stop his train a few yards from where the limb of a tree had fallen across the tracks on a mountain pass near here. The train was rounding a curve that hid the obstruction from view and, had the girl not signalled him, Engineer Albert H. Heller said it was probable that the cars would have been derailed and thrown fifty feet down the mountainside.

The trouble seems to have started shortly after 8:30 a.m., when Mrs. Ross entered her kitchen and was in the act of preparing breakfast. Ross, it is believed, became impatient and set about to fix his own breakfast. Mrs. Ross then continued, she says, to prepare breakfast for herself and little daughter, Elizabeth. The door bell rang and when Mrs. Ross went to answer the call he, it is claimed, resented her closing the door behind her. Infuriated, he then jumped up from the table and began beating her. A roomer in the house pleaded with Mr. Ross to control his temper.

TOM LEE HERO FUND HAS NOT REACHED $3,000 (Preston News Service.) MEMPHIS. Tenth. July 4--There can be no fit comment on the way people are now donating to the Tom Lee Fund. The more fact that only two small contributions totalling $4 were received in so many days last week shows in itself that the white people of Memphis think little and care less about what Tom Lee did in saving the lives of drawing whites in the Mississippi River some months ago. At this writing a fund for Lee stands now at $2,000.45. Colorful News "Movies" (Continued from Page 1.) bring to bear no one can say. The District Government remains adamant, under the law, and, of course, no one can question its good faith or sincerity. Nevertheless, the bad taste remains in the mouth of Washington, where it is realized that exploitation is to be made of the organization which President Grant so vigorously quelled, in the bleak days of yearstime; and it is difficult to realize the grade of consistency which permits the invisible order to court cheers of approbation from a sector of the general public. The fact remains that precedents of Niles, O., and other places where the klan has met under similar circumstances do not brook much good to follow in its wake, and despite statute law which may permit the klan to trend upon Washington's most historic street, caution and care, it would seem, should lead the District Government to balance the good and the harm, as the case may be, which may come from the descendants of the hood and gown. And during such a consideration we think, the burden of proof rests with the klan to prove itself to be 100 per cent American rather than its foes to prove that it is not-at least this should be the case. if history means anything for history usually repeats itself. Mr. "Abolitionist" Writes: 1. 1925, Mr. "Abolitionist" goes to the bat on the question of race segregation. Says he: "It is an error to assume that segregation is an evil for the colored race. Rather should the Negroes welcome it as it affords them an opportunity to demonstrate their power to stand alone and their capacity to function alone and unaided in all life's activities equally with the white race. The Negro only degenerates by his contact with the white race. Alone, he can fight against the evil influence of those who undermine his character and morality in order to have him under their sway." Somewhere in the dim and ancient past it is recorded, notwithstanding Mr. Darwin to the contrary, that God made man in His own image—not men, but MAN—and in the ages since then it has been recorded how man became so dissatisfied with himself that Calm slew Abel, men warred against men, and selflessness against bigotry, following the original sin of Adam, superseded the scheme of God for man to live with man in peace and harmony. The trend of theory, at least, is for man again to Christianize himself and live peaceably with his brother, as his brother's keeper, loving his neighbor as himself. Race segregation is the banable barrier of some men to place self upon a pedestal and the other fellow at its base. It is not that the Negro does not yearn for the full chance as a race group that leads him to segregation. It is not that he objects to his own company that he dislikes the jim-crow coach or the segregated community. Nor is it that he disdains the opportunity to demonstrate his group power. It is, however, the shroud of inferiority which ever and anon accompanies the white man's scheme of segregation. This, coupled with selflessness and bigotry, which have ever accompanied sole group alignment, together with the reciprocal benefits which, under Christian civilization, play back and forth between races, makes segregation an undesirable policy. Then, too, were all the racial increments of America's melting pot of human beings to segregate themselves from each other, where, in the name of Heaven, would come the chance to exchange the emoluments of Christianized and civilized progression? Where the Jews, the Germans, the Italians, and all the other racial groups selfishly to separate themselves from each other, what would become of the descendants of the Oglethorpe, Peter Minuet and Roger Williams, all of whom are supposed to be promoting American welfare this day and time? What would become of the great interlocking American finan- FURS Remodelling Repairing reasonably A small deposit will start your account.

The Bird and Cage A FLAXEN - HAIRED white lady, holding aloft in her hands a beautifully gilded bird cage, ran frantically around the base of a tree on the city street, calling "Come back, Dickey" to a little canary bird who had abandoned his prison for a limb high up the tree, from whence he was pouring forth as sweet a song as we have ever heard from the throat of a canary. In his song there seemed to be a note of joyousness which we had never heard when the little fellow was safely locked in his cage next door. "Come back, Dickey; come back, Dickey." called the white lady; but Dickey's only reply was a burst of song and a flight to a higher limb and greater freedom, as he felt increased strength come to his wings and the, fresh air of outdoors go down into his lungs. Dickey's new freedom is not unlike that which has come to the million Negro migrants who have come to the Northland during the past 10 years out of the cage of neonage, lynching and the octopus-like prejudice with tentacles reaching into the home life, the schools, the public utilities, and, in fact, into every phase of southern life where the question of color can be used as a blindfold for equity and justice. Upon the Negro's abandonment of those areas of statified citizenship he "best friends" there, the owners of the cage, like the canary bird's keeper, wallingly cried: "Come back, Dickey"; but the migratory Negro freemen, overcome by the new atmosphere and the increased strength of privilege, have not heard the call. There remain "down home" however, millions of Negroes whose patience, while in the case, has not waned. They cling still to the hope that the meek shall inherit the earth. To them there is the Christian obligation and the warning signal of an enlightened civilization, pointing towards a deserved freedom, a higher appreciation of their worth, a knowledge that God is no respecter of persons, and a quickening of the skill to deal justly with those who remain in or close to the cage, the bars of which should be torn asunder. Then the freedom of this life will be theirs, and sectional lines will yield to love of cleavage between all the people of the good old U. S.

ALTANTA, Ga., July 6—Lewis Peasley, aged 20 years, learned Monday afternoon in the Recorder's Court that there is no open season for shooting up churches. Lewis must pay fines aggregating girl and must answer charges in the State Courts, having been bound over by Recorder Galloway. It appears that Lewis dropped in on two well attended church services in the vicinity of Foote street Sunday night and caused both gatherings to disperse hastily when he fired volleys of pistol shots to all points of the compass, according to the testimony. When Lewis was making the communicants of the second church he visited scamper to safety for their lives, the police arrived on the scene and suppressed the barrage that Lewis had laid down on the fleeing churchgoers. The officers hauled Lewis and his belching artillery off to the cooler. It is said that Lewis had visited several "little thirstys" during the hot afternoon and was well soaked when he started on his campaign of church disturbances. Hold in Auto Death.

Nat'l Colored Republican Conference Holds Annual Session in Atlantic City Mrs. Daisy Lampkins of Pittsburgh Elected President—Resolutions Are Passed. ATLANTIC CITY, July 4. The third annual meeting of the National Colored Republican Conference was held in the Jethro Presbyterian Church of Atlantic City on Friday, July 3. The session was called to order by Mrs. Daisy Lampkins, of Pittsburgh, Pa., acting president. Rev. Silas W. Broster offered prayer, after which the president, Mrs. Daisy Lampkins, made her opening address, in which she called attention to the death of the president and founder of the conference, Dr. George E. Cannon. The recording secretary, Mr James E. Keford, of Waterbury, Conn., presented his annual report in which he told of the activities of the conference since the last annual meeting, of the condition of the finances and of the action of the committee meeting held in Newark, N. J. in the month of May. He read a copy of the resolutions of condolence adopted at the committee meeting. Dr W. A. Byrd, of Jersey City, N. J., and chairman of the Steering Committee, presented his report, saying that through the efforts of the Steering Committee the Republican National Committee had selected Hon. Chrancie Matthews to head up the colored bureau in the last Presidential campaign and that the committee had had several conferences with President Coolidge on the subject of equal patronage for colored people and on the subject of departmental separation and segregation. The following resolutions presented by the Steering Committee were adopted: "Your committee feels the great task for this year is to get Congress sympathetic with our aims. What are these aims?" (a) Restoration of the ballot. This is difficult because so many who are deprived do not realize the value of the ballot, hence are unconcerned about it. The fact remains that because of this "Rape of the Negro franchise" by the South, a ballot cast by a white voter South is equal to ten votes by whites elsewhere in the country. Our fathers in forming the Constitution recognized this probable evil, and made it mandatory upon Congress to penalize by reducing the representation from such states both in the electoral college and in the House Representatives. We should ask for the application of the constitutional safeguard to balance the franchise. Therefore. We recommend that this conference approve of the reduction of Southern representation, and instruct its committee to fight for it before the present Congress. It is our opinion that the moment this is done, that moment the South will restore the ballot to all. Since the members of Congress are chosen under Federal supervision, we also recommend that this conference instruct its committee to take up the enforcement of this statute with Attorney General Sargeant and secure his active support in this matter. We question if one-third of the members of Congress from what is called "The Solid South" are fairly and honestly elected. The one great evil standing in the way of an honest and pure franchise in the South is the mob spirit. We recommend that conference appeal to the present Congress to pass an "Anti-Nob Law" so to safeguard liberty and life in this nation. We recommend that the Steering Committee, be empowered to get in touch with Chairman Butler of the National Republican Committee and with the chairman of the Congressional Committee and ask that a colored man be put in charge of a bureau for the purpose of assisting in the election of Congressmen in the same manner as Mr. Clarence Matthews and his bureau co-operated in the Presidential election. The roll of members was called and there were responses from 17 States. The president appointed the following Committee on Nomination of Officers: James E. Keford, Mrs. M. E. Burrell, Rev. H. B. Taylor and Judge W. R. Page. Mrs. George S. Williams, National Committeewoman from Georgia, was introduced and made a short address. Dr. John W. Robinson, pastor, St. Mark's M. E.

Blown Out Through Wall of Cellar NEW ROCHELLE, N. Y., July 6. Hurled through the cellar wall as the result of a terrific explosion, last Wednesday, which caused $8,000 damage to the home of Dr. Eugene T. Morrison, at 22 Locast avenue, Benjamin Boarman is in the New Rochelle Hospital. The explosion, caused by the igniting of gasoline flames, forced a big opening in the cellar wall, through which Boarman was thrown, and practically ruined every room on the first floor. Nearly every wall was thrown out of line and the plaster was ripped from the walls and ceiling. With Boarman in the house at the time was Frank Ulrich, both employed as utility men by Dr. Morrison. The Morrison family is spending a vacation out of town. Ulrich escaped injured. Goorman was extricated from the wreckage and rushed to the hospital. He was spraying gas line for the purpose of killing insects. Herb Doctor Sought After Woman's Death (Preston News Service.) NEWARK, N. J. July 6—Investigation is being made by the police into the sudden death of Mrs. Sarah Turner, who died early Thursday morning. Mrs. Turner was aged 39 years. She was found dead in bed by her husband, Frank Turner, about two hours after she had retired. An autopsy was performed by County Physician Martial, upon whose advice it is said that city detectives are seeking an alleged herb doctor, known as Dan Brooks, whose address is unknown. Turner told the police that his wife had been suffering from asthma for several years and had tried numerous doctors without obtaining relief. Wednesday Mrs. Turner obtained a bottle of medicine from Brooks and had taken two doses of it before retiring. The contents of the bottle have been sent to the state chemist to be analysed. KENTUCKY N. A. A. C. P PROSECUTES MURDERER The Franklin, Kentucky, branch of the N. A. A. C. P. reports that it has employed A. J.

Sentenced as Disorderly. John Johnson, 34, 456 Lenox avenue, was sentenced to the workhouse for five days on a charge of disorderly conduct made by Daniel Dublin, 218 W. 146th street. Burton Bolton Crushed to Death by Apartment House Elevator On the first day of his employment as elevator operator at the Woodrow Court Apartment, 645 W. 169th St., Burton Boulton, 28. 223 W. 168rd street, was crushed to death Tuesday night when he was caught between the first floor landing and elevator. Firemen of Hook and Ladder Company 34, of W. 164th street, under command of Captain William Foster, and members of Rescue Squad worked frantically for nearly a half hour to release Bolton, whose neck was broken. He died almost instantly. The firemen were forced to use acetylene torches to burn away the steel frame of the elevator to extricate Bolton and it was with considerable difficulty that they succeeded. In response to a call from one of the upper floors, Bolton stepped into the elevator and seised the controller which starts the car. He slipped while grapping the controller and the elevator ascended. Emitted One Scream. Bolton's body, with the exception of his head, was out of the elevator as it ascended. When the car reached the first floor his head was caught between the floor of the elevator and the first floor landing. Bolton emitted one scream. This attracted the superintendent of the building. Frank Grant. The latter summoned Policeman Edward Swainey of the Wadsworth avenue station. Beeing the plight of the man, the policeman immediately put in a call for an ambulance from Columbus Hospital. Pending the arrival of the ambulance Bwanye telephoned for the Hook and Ladder truck. When Dr. Longo arrived, Bolton was dead. Virtually all of the 53 families in the apartment were arrested by the tragedy. The noise and clamor of the fire apparatus and the general commotion that followed throw the entire house into a turmoil. With axes the firemen chopped away the wooden flooring of the elevator. Still Bolton could not be extricated. So Captain Foster ordered his men to employ an acetylene torch. With this the firemen burned away the steel frame work of the elevator and only then was his body freed. The superintendent of the building told the police that he had hired Bolton earlier in the day and that he had worked but a few hours when the accident occurred.

GRANGER Twenty-two innings of sensational baseball resulted from the double-header between the Bushwicks and the Bacharach Giants on Sunday at Dexter Park. The Bushwicks were victorious in both games. Leon Cadore pitched the Dexter Parkers to victory in the first game, 5 to 4, after thirteen innings, while Jack Warhop triumphed, 8 to 4, in the regulation nine innings in the second game. In both the games the Bushwicks were outhit, but in both games, they showed more ability in the pinches than the colored players. A more exciting game than that 13-inning contest has never been seen at Dexter Park. The Bacharach tied up the score in the last innings. The colored players scored what looked to be the winning run in the 12th, but the Bushwicks came right back and tied up the score again. In the 13th the Bacharachs again scored a run, and this time the fans were certain that the Bush wicks were beaten. But again the Daxter Parkers rallied, and won out by sending two men across the plate. Joe Waisa the Big Star. Joe Weiss divided the honors of the opening game with Cadore. Joe played a great game in the field, carried home the run that rattled the score in the 12th, and then hanged out the hit that scored the winniig run in the 13th. It was a tough game for Bill Natall to lose. The colored pitcher got away to a bad start, being scored upon in the first and second innings. The run in the opening session was a home run clout contributed by "Kewpie" Dean. The ball sailed over the right field face. Singles by Johnny McVoy. "Moonie" Miller and Cadore and an error by Cummings let a Bushwick run trickle across the plate in the second innings. Then, from the second innings right through to the 13th Natall, packed wonderful ball. In those nine innings the home batmen were unable to make anything that looked like a hit. It looked as if Cadore had "blown" the game in the 12th inning, when, with two out, Gatowood, Nuttall and Woods all singled for a run, but Weis doubled to start the Bushwick's half, and beat Lundy's throw to third on Steen's rap. McVoy lined a long sacrifice fly to right that permitted Weis to cross the plate with the run that again tied up the score. An error by Peploski put Cummings on first to start the 13th inning. Lundy was hit by a pitched ball and Lloyd cracked a single to right that sent Cummings home and Lundy to third. Reforced Lloyd at second. Lundy being held on third. Young popped to Peploski and Gatewood sent a fly to Steen. Dean Starta Rally. Dean started the Bushwick's half of the 13th with an infield hit and went to second on Lai's out. Peploski doubled to the fence in right field, scoring Dean. Spalding was purposely walked, but Welles came through with a single right that sent Peploski home with the winning run. Bad pitching by Clark and Roberts in the first innning made the second game easy for the Bushwicks. Clark walked Dean and Lail and then was taken out of the box. Roberts, who succeeded him, was also wild and walked Peplocki, filling the bases. Spalding banged a safety to left field and when the ball bounced over Young's head it went for a triple, clearing the bases. Weiss was hit by a pitched ball and Weiss and Spalding followed this with a double steal, the latter scoring. Hohman's slashing single to right scored Weiss. Warhop, while he was hit freely, managed to hold the Bacharacha in check in seven of the nine innings. Next Sunday the Bushwicks will play a doubleheader with the Cuban Stars at Darter Park.

The tough week-end schedule forced Fred Purchell to use Mamaux, who had pitched shutouts ball against Bayside on Saturday, against Chapple's team after the colored sluggers had driven Doc Durgin from the mound in the third inning. The ex-leaguer had to battle against a six-run lead and with Carter breeding them over his efforts were futile. Johnson and Smith found Al for two homers in the fifth, but these tallies were not needed as the five combed from Durgin in the third were sufficient for the colored team's fifth victory out of fifty-three starts. It was a four-base Ruthian clout by Ewing, big catcher of the up-state team, that brought about Durgin's downfall. The bases were loaded when his smash came and Mamaux took up what the big pitcher left unfinished. He allowed but four hits, two of which were home runs. Wednesday night the Jamaica club will introduce an innovation when they play the Savannah Colored Giants in a twilight game. FIRST GAME.

Two runs in the second and one in the third gave the visitors the lead again, which they held until the fifth, when the Recreation Park nine scored twice. The Giants tied the score in the eighth, but their efforts were ruined by the Springfield's rally. The scores: Pilha.

BOXING, BASEBALL, TENNIS, CRICKET, ETC. New Jersey Tennis Players Staged Tourney July 4th NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 1925 The Sportive Spotlight It seems to be a peculiar trait of some of our sundown brothers no sooner than they write a line for one of these sheets they demand a pass for everything from a Broadway show to a Yankee Stadium fight, or a world's series game. Such men like Arthur E. Francis and the others who in and out of season turn out matter looked for by thousands are satisfied about once a year to put in a slight request and appear to be satisfied when the pasteboards fail to materialize. Serve your apprenticeship, fellows, and when, with becoming modesty, you make your requests, something will be done. Tales have come to us of a "gate crasher" working with credentials from this paper that only called for solicitation of advertising. Promoters of dances, etc., are kindly requested to give him the air. Well, the white brother is now confessing to himself that Harry Wills carried no wraps in his fight with Weinert. We opine that Harry went right out and knocked himself out of another fight until such time as they can smoke up another hat for him. He has been willing to fight Dempsey for years, but Dempsey, apart from being a good dodger, is telling the folks in Europe that he will only fight on percentage and that there's no fighter at the present time that can draw a large enough gate with him. Apparently they fall for anything in Europe. Look at Dr Cook. Over here they are going to resort to another trick to get Wills out of the way. They think that George Godfrey has reached the place where he is prepared to meet Wills. Shucks! George at this stage of his career is no better than any of those white hopes. Throw him into the ring with Harry and he is going to hit the canvas in sheer fright. The "Baron of Leiperville." Jimmy Dougherty, is only schooling George for a lover's end. Well, George is as much entitled to it as Eartley Madden, Louis Firpo or Charlie Weinert. As a young-ter we had always been led to believe that watermelon and chicken were things to be associated with the race. As we grew older and became an expert indoor chauffeur we noticed that we as a race did not have a thing on the Jews when it came to a love for these delicious and succulent things. We now notice that a swimming meet will be held July 14th by the Jewish Community House in Brooklyn, which will be restricted to members. The feature of the meet will be a watermelon race. The melon will be greased, thrown into the water and will become the property of the entrant who captures it. We are willing to wager that a colored entrant wouldn't have a chance in this race against the Jewish boys, in spite of what they say about our particular love for these things. In an age wherein even the waltz, unfortunately, has become somewhat passe, we oftimes wonder if our good friend Prof. Chas. H. Anderson is on the right road to success. During the past few months we have made it our business to drop in once a week at his classes at the Elk Auditorium, and from our observations we have reached the conclusion that a fair opinion instead of that nauseating praise which is, apparently, a fixed habit of the brother in this newspaper game, would serve a better purpose than a call upon the imagination to remain in the good graces of the professor and continue to enjoy that flattery of which he is an artful exponent. Let us take last Saturday night as an example. The Professor entertained his largest gathering in weeks—one that came out because of the holiday night and perhaps on account of the entertainers billed to appear. Now, to folks with the access to witness the very best along the lines pursued by the professor on this occasion at a reasonable figure, we believe that the crowd out to enjoy a dance becomes somewhat bored at amateurs trying to deny them the opportunity to dance. Professor Anderson's entertainers were all so amateurish the two boys from "Kid Boots" came as a blessing. The response was lukewarm, judging from the applause or, more correctly, the lack of it. Even the professor's laudable efforts to keep alive the more artistic form of dancing fails in its appeal in this age of jazz. Saturday night after Saturday night we have noticed his futile efforts to appeal to the majority by introducing some form of a schottische which, so far as we can see, simply gives his assistants a chance to display their ability. More than half the time the outsiders refuse to judge to engage in this dance until insistently urged by Mr. Anderson and his friends. What, then, is the answer? We believe if genial Charlie is anxious to induce a bumper house to come out Saturday nights he will give them plenty of good music and let them do their own style of dancing. As we pointed out some time ago, the majority of the folks are satisfied with their jazz, and dances where even the old folks can "walk around to music" and "be in style" would bring them out. Considering that the professor has tried his method without any appreciable success, we do not think he will take the attitude that we are assuming to tell him how to run his business. This is but an opinion, and one based on a desire to see the former leader of the dance world enjoying the success of which he is deserving. True, it would be much easier to sit down and take the line of least resistance by saying he had a wonderful crowd, but we find it impossible to be that unfair. The size of the gathering of last Saturday night should be in evidence every Saturday night, and on holiday nights the place should be packed. Further up Seventh avenue where another Saturday night assembly holds forth the place was packed to the doors, and as one who tries to observe without making rash statements, we cannot say that we noticed any inferiority so far as the social standing of those attending the latter place is concerned. But here they are given the best of music and allowed to put into play their own fancy steps and on a sea of jazz it is truly waves of 'em that pack the dance floor at the first few notes from the orchestra. We, too, are moved with a desire to witness those good old artistic dances, but the old saying still holding true is that "business is business." Brown Captures Tournament of New Jersey Tennis Ass'n at Asbury Park Gladys Jameson, of Trenton, Won Ladies', With C Henry and W. Lawton Taking the Men's Doubles and Henry and Sister Sewing Up Mixed Doubles Ashbury Park, N. J., July 4.—William Brown, of Hackensack, fought his way through a strong field and captured the men's singles event in the third annual Class "B" tennis tournament of the New Jersey Tennis Association, the finals of which were played on the Ashbury Park Tennis Club courts today. Miss Glayds Jameson, of Trenton, won the ledies' singles; C. Henry and W. Lawton won the men's doubles, and C. Henry and Miss M. Henry won the mixed doubles. Brown drew a bye in the first round and then defeated S. Williams. Burrell and Lawton in the succeeding rounds. Cilton Henry, a 19-year-old Brown University freshman, was in the opposite half of the draw and upset the dope in the first round when he eliminated Mifflin Gibbs, the Trenton star. at 6-2 6-0. Henry won from Bingham by default and disposed of Duncy in straight sets. In the semifinals he had a narrow escape when Dr. K. A. Robinson took the first set and made a strong fight in the deciding set but Henry's specialty driver were too much for the Jersey doctor and the younger took the third set at 6-3. The finals brought out two styles of play. Brown depended on his accurate placements on the sidelines and short chops at the net while Henry used his forehand drive with top spin. Henry gained the lead in the first set but his opponent's steadiness in the pinches ended up matters and Brown speeded up on his service and ran out the set. The second was a repetition of the first with Brown pulling up from 4—I to take the set at 7—. Henry gained the same lead in the third set and Brown took it easy on the last games. dropping his service for the set game. After the rest period Brown came back strong using a flat drive on the sidelines and passed Henry for the points necessary to take the deciling set. Henry exhibited perfect form in his play and with more tournament experience will be a dangerous factor in the metropolitan tennis circles. Miss Jameson easily captured the first set in her semi-final match with Miss Mary Henry, sister of the runner-up in the men's singles, but in the second the Ashbury Park girl put up a memorable battle forcing Miss Jameson to a deuce set at 11—9. Mrs. T. C. Williams of Bordentown won her semi-final match from Mrs. L. Granger by default and met Miss Jameson in the final. Both ladies used hard low drives to the back line and both served well. In the first set each won on service until 4—4 was reached and when each lost service for six straight games. Miss Jameson began to mix in an occasional lob or chop when Mrs. Williams was in the back court and won her service at 10—9. After a long dance game Mrs. Williams dropped her service and the first set. In the second set Mrs. Williams uncovered a powerful backhand drive that was a sure point-winner and easily took the second set at 6—3. After the rest Miss Jameson recovered her chopping and lobbing and Mrs. Williams became a little wild with her long drives and the third set went to Miss Jameson at 7—5. In the men's doubles Brown was paired with Dr. I. Thompson and suffered an unexpected defeat in the first round, at 6-1 6-1, at the hands of Sampson and Gibbs. The winning team then eliminated Burrell and Dr. Robinson in the semi-finals. Lawton and Henry almost suffered defeat at the hands of C Brown and Briggs, a strong combination from Astbury Park. This match went three sets and Lawton and Henry finally took the match at 6-6, 6-4, 7-5. Davenport and Ven Gielen put up a thrilling battle in the semi-finals, in which Ven Gielen's net work was a feature. Lawton and Henry had to extend themselves to the limit to win at 6-4, 9-6. C. Henry and Miss M. Henry had an easy time in the mixed doubles winning the finals from Burrell Billiard Notes By OLD IVORY. At last, J. D. Payne has found his Betsie. She has been best ever since the club moved from Leenon avenue. Perdue, of pure silk sock fame, is not only a good sock salesman, but a mighty good billiardist.

Well, the managers of the Lafayette Emporium did just what they said they would do: Put on the best returns of a bost ever seen in Harlem. Everyone attending was agreeably surprised, even the ladies who occupied one side of the balcony all enjoyed a real fight minus boistering and blood.

As Louis Garcia, who sits in the offing to our right, fixing up the advertising for this paper would say, "polyglues are going to fly" when they start the ball rolling at the Commonwealth Sport Club the coming Saturday night. The dived-in-the-wool element did not turn out last Wednesday night, giving the lovers of the four rounders a chance to sit in and make believe they liked them. But this Saturday night they are going to be hanging from the rafters from early evening and it behoves all hands to get their seats early, as the card is one of the best arranged in some time at any club. Monster Crowd Packs Renais- There will be three big attractions. Black Bill, who has not as much as lost a decision since he came here from Cuba, will again perform. This time the little Cuban whirlwind will be sent in against Wee Willie Wood, as fine a little fighting man as ever drew on a glove. Wee Willie has met and held his own over such splendid ringers as Eddie Polo, Wee Willie Burns, Johnny Buff, the former champion, and Vincent Salvatore. Black Bill is a most satisfactory ring performer and gives the fans a run for their money all the time. Joe Hall. Buffalo lightweight, who has made a fine impression since he came down from up-state to fight. will stack up against Charley Manty, another good mitt man, who holds decisions over Lew Paluso, Johnny Drew and Tommy (Kid) Murphy. This should be another sizzling bout. For the first time since he arrived from Cuba Cirilian Orlando, lightweight champion of the "Pearl of the Antilles," will show his wares in Harlem. The few O'Fay writers, willing to be fair to our colored fighters, see in Orlando one of the best men in the game, and save as their opinion the thought that he would be banging for admission among the best in the same here with a little more schooling. Orlando will be meeting Andy Tucker from Yonkers in another of the big bouts and the fur should fly. Tucker is a hard man to get into account of what is known as an unorthodox style. When using this manner of battling he has made it difficult for his opponents, and the Cuban will be put to a good test. The six-rounder will bring together Dominstick Patrone and Pobly Defaldo, while in the four will appear Joe Smith and Johnnie Reid. With one sweep of his trusty pen for pocket also type-writer, Genial Jesse has arranged a card that will make up for the closing of the club. last Saturday night. Littlejohn and Reed Lose in Comic Bouts Last Week's Show at Commonwealth Not so Forty But Things Will Be Different Saturday A rose, they say, by most any other name would smell as sweet, hence, when Panama Dixie Kid crawled through the ropes last Wednesday night at the Commonwealth Sport Club to meet Al Vitoa and was introduced as Johnny Reed, we knew he would take the same old dive, although supposed living from Harlem on this trip instead of N'Orleans. Somebody must have told the Dixie Kid that Harry Willa halls from the southern city of the creoles, but they forger to tell Dixie that Harry is a perfectly good fighting man. Unleashing what he, no doubt, imagines is the scissors rough, the Dixie Kid lasted the first round, in spite of the dismay of the referee and ringersiders, who relied with him to "stand up and fight." Relief came early in the second epasm. The wiseacres laying bets that Dixie would be keyed in short order know what they were about, for, after being slammed around for a while he gracefully found his usual spot on the canes and his night's work. In the other hout in which a sundown fighter engaged colored Harlem did not receive the opportunity to esult. The best thing about Bertie Littlejohn, who lost the decision to Joe Silvani, is a decision from one which reinforced the evolution fight now going on. The white lad had no trouble running from Littlejohn, who appears to have long the punch he himself with masters thought he had when he made his in appearance in these parts. There were all four round houses last Wednesday night and not so many "BLACK BILL" SHOWING HERE THIS WEEK Cuban Lightweight Champ On Commonwealth Card NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 1945 SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE We are off on a six weeks' trip to cover 9,000 miles to promote a nation-wide interest in the finals of the United States A. T. A. tournament at Bordentown, August 23-29. From the Hudson to 'Frisco, along the Mexican border and back again in time for New York State to open the week preceding the Nationals! And what cheer to return and try to redeem oneself by gaining a little better place than the second round. Anyhow it was auspicious last week in the E. & S. Tournament, for which that noble sportsman, the Hon. Adolph Howell, whose business is one of New York's finest institutions, has donated a most beautiful trophy to fall before the drives of Mr. Phipps, an old-timer, who seems destined to come into his own. More power to him and all his kind who have determined to win with a real American drive the international crown. Monster Crowd Packs Renaissance Casino to Enjoy 4th of July Night It's a secret that all may learn. You are never too old or too young to start driving unless you have vowed to go down in the annals of Negro tennis as the champion push, pat and cut stroke artist. Best wishes for your eternal downfall. But let me add the sweetest bit of all—your drives, if you stick by them, will over night pass you from the mob of also-rans to the lionized hero of the gallery—first because they are surprised and secondly you have done the thing their favorite has many times with chop strokes come so near, yet never really registered in an undeniable way. Remember, tournament players, that you paid your entry fee to beat somebody and if he happens to be a former champion, so much the better. The dope was invented to be upset. You might as well win as anybody else. Why not? Fight to win and you will and when you have your man going serve an ace on match point and beat him a love set if you can. Rain Came Too Late to Interfere With the Hundreds That Stormed the Doors From Early Evening Until Late Don't forget though that a good studious tennis enthusiast when beaten goes back more zealously than ever to his brick wall and spends the last "two spot" for another copy of Blackmore's or Little's Tennis Tactics; and reads, re-reads, memorizes and goes out to see the great players of two continents win and lose matches, carefully analyzing the why and wherefore. Never miss an opportunity to see Tilden, Richards, Alonzo, Miss Wills, Mrs. Mallory or any of the top-notchers—to see them recover the ones always labeled by the "dubs" unreturnable opens up new vistas in the possibilities of your game. Try standing on your toes when waiting for service instead of flatfooted and you will not have so many aces put over; keep moving, when you make a return go for your next position near the center of the court, either three feet back of the base-line or about five feet back of the net. There are only two correct positions on the tennis court. Think about it and your opponent will not catch you off balance and so far away quite as often. The cardinal fault of rushing your shot at the last minute after a mad dash will not be necessary. The person who makes the least number of errors and returns the ball one more time than his opponent always wins the match. Decide to be that lucky one. Luck in tennis is concentration and persistency. For the first you must study off the court and keep your theory in mind on the court; in other words think and keep at it. You cannot accomplish this last requisite for winning matches—persistency—without training. You must have unrelenting stamina to win hard-fought, long-drawn-out matches. You will have to start for the next two months going to bed regularly before twelve and nearer ten, cut out smokes, sweets, cheap ginger ale and other beverages. It cannot be said that everybody went to the seashore or the mountains or to some country resort for the holiday. Looking at that crowd that stormed the doors of the Renaissance Casino last Saturday night from early evening until the wee morning hours, one would be forced to the conclusion that enough folks remained in the city. While it is true that this place houses anywhere from 400 to 800 people every Saturday night, it was taxed to capacity the last week-end, but it was a happy gathering that spent every minute of the time not only because of the good music furnished by an augmented orchestra, but by the thought that the next day would be one of rest. While it is expected that the winter months would see packed houses because of the appearance of the world's colored championship basketball team against the best white teams in the country, few expected that the summer months would witness such splendid turnouts to the Renaissance and last Saturday night capped the climax of large gatherings. Of course you don't have to do any one of these things, but remember, the winner of the championship in 1925 will be as in the past, one who comes most nearly to observing these necessary regulations. Only one night of unhearsay hot weather has taken its toll in attendance figures at the Renaissance, and with the continuation of cool weather the crowds continue to come out as usual. It is so wonder, then, that in future holiday nights will find the casino jammed to the doors under the management of the men who have always tried to give the people what they wanted. Six weeks have passed since we urged the neophytes to buy a rule book, Tilden's "Match Plan and the Spin of the Ball," a $15 racket, a box of championship 1925 balls, and to start concentrating on learning to play tennis, by reading the literature, memorizing the rules and practicing daily with first-class equipment, up against the stone wall building, the gymnasium bric-a-brac on the handball board and on the tennis court, with an intelligent normal friend who desired to improve his game and not to brag all over the town who his "fish" was yesterday afternoon. In passing, for the benefit of those ambitious ones who like rare gems each month we suggest investing thirty cents in the recent number of American Lawn Tennis, the monthly journal devoted exclusively to the game and edited by Mr. Stephen Wallis Merrihew since 1907, and the collaborator with Mr. Tilden of the new book Match Play. All those who wish to dope out how Mr. Vincent Richards beat Mr. Tilden in four sets two weeks ago in Orange, New Jersey, and why Mr. Merrihew called foot faults on Mr. Richards just like he did ten years ago on the then budding world's champion and supreme player of all times, Mr. William Tilden and, of Gernontown, Pa., will find the logic of this prediction: Mr. Tilden will again win in 1925. (This was written before Mr. Tilden decisively defeated Mr. Richards in the Church Cup tourney at Boston.) Jackie Gordon kept up his winning streak at the opening of the new fight club in Canarsie last Friday night when he defeated Anselm Bell in the star bout of the night. Bell put up a good showing, but Gordon was too much for him and the white boy was given the decision as the end of the bout. Benny Hall, highly touted new arrival here, disposed of his opponent in brilliant form. Although billed to go 12 rounds the colored ind smothered his white antagonist and made it a one sided affair, which forced the referee to stop the fight in the fourth round. The new Garden City Club got off to a big start, as a large number turned out to witness the bout. It is expected that a number of colored fighters will be given a chance at this new open air arena and readers of this paper can look to these columns for accounts of fights taking place there. But I have wandered afield. If you have been at your game for a month or so as well as some winter training, with the arrival of tournament time it is time to change the emphasis to start on a new line of attack. Before I go further, however, it is well to state that there are perhaps not over a dozen colored players in America who should not keep right on playing (I mean practising to master their stroke perfection) for the rest of the season, giving little attention to beating either your friends or winning tournaments. If you do not understand what is meant by this dictum, I again admonish you to read up and find out what are the first principles. NO ONE WHO CANNOT STAND THE GAFF AND OFTENTIMES THE HUMILIATION OF BEING TROUNCED BY THOSE WHOM YOU FORMERLY BEAT UP. JUST RESIGN YOURSELVES TO MEDIOCRITY.

You can only improve that game that has stood in one place for five or six years by thoughtful, forced, studious, methodical practising of one shot over and over again and done as the book says; whether you win at first or lose all the time, you undoubtedly must of necessity pay that price for mastery. It is a slow process, sometimes painful, but you will never really play and enjoy the modern, captivating game of tennis if you do not learn its art and science, and this cannot be without the foundation of the game. That is that, but playing to beat your opponent is something else again. A crowd of 1,300 cricket enthusiasts cheered on to victory the team representing the St. Kitts Cricket Club in the New York League match with the St. John's Cricket Club at New York Oval Sunday afternoon. St. Kitts won by 120 to 55. C. Francis played a good not out innings of 20 for the victors, other doubles being added by A. Francis, R. Yearwood, E. H. Margetson and N. Yearwood. The seeding of H. Leader was a feature of the play. J. Henry, 16, and W. Burton, 10, were the only doubles credited to St. John's batmen. You go into a tournament to win. There are successful tactics and those that fail. Look up the word "strategy" in Webster's Unabridged Dictionary. I mean it. Then read Mr. Richards' book on how geometry taught him the angling of his volleys. Go and look through the several tennis books in the library and note the chapters on the psychology of tennis, as illustrated in the analysis of your opponent's mental reaction to the shots you almost returned. This brain work will probably be anathema to most of our dilatory and self-satisfied tennis "mutts," but take it or continue to disgrace our traditional line of honest-to-goodness athletes of international renown with sorry exhibitions of pretty ladylike pat ball. New York Orients Beat Boston Cricket Team After dismissing the Boston Wanderers for a total score of 136 runs, the New York Orients responded with a score of 262, thereby winning the intercity match at Commercial Field in Brooklyn on Sunday. In New York this week we will see Saitch, Gomes, Johnson and Reginald Weir (the most promising scientific fourteen-year-old in America) in action at the first tournament on the E. and S. Courts, at 146th street, between Seventh and Eighth avenues). The Orients owed their victory largely to the fine stand made by L. Springer, who contributed 101. Seven of the Orients' wickets went down for 100 and they were 38 behind when a stand by Springer and Fodrigham saved the situation Next week at Wilberforce, Ohio, at the Midwestern, Ted Thompson, Dr. Williams, Richard Hudlin, Simons and Clark will show their wares. We will be able in about another week to pick the leaders for the title honors in 1925. By good batting on the part of B. J. Kortlang and B. E. R. South- ern, who scored 24 and 27 respectively, the Manor Field Cricket Club gained another victory at the expense of Newark in the annual championship competition of the New York and New Jersey Cricket Association at West New Brighton, Staten Island, Sunday afternoon. E. G. Hull and A. J. Totterdell helped along with a double apiece. Southern was also most effective with the ball, taking 4 wickets for 14 runs. L. Cabral of Newark alone made a stand for his side with a well-played 22. The totals were: Manor Field, 118; Newark, 61. St. George Cricketers Win The St. George Cricket Club gained a close verdict by three runs over Kings County in their Metropolitan League match at Highland-Park, Sunday, the former winning by 42 to 29. B. Hatch of Kings County led the batting with 17, his being the only double figure on either side. The bowlers had all the best of it.

"The Lost Chord" At Franklin Theatre Performers Did Not Grace the New Palm Garden in Jamaica With Their Presence on the Fourth But They Had a Good Orchestra and the Jamaicans Danced Until a Sudden Downpour Sent Them Scuttling Into the Club Rooms of the Former Midvale Tennis Club If they came we failed to see them. We mean those performers advertised to put in their appearance at the opening of the new "Merrick Park Palm Garden" in Jamaica, L. T., fostered by Perry Bradford and Frank Patterson. We took our stand a few feet from the grounds at an early hour in the evening, and the only ones whose names were advertised that we noticed in the vicinity were Perry Bradford and Clarence Williams. FRANKLIN OFFERS FINE FILM Clarence stood on the outside looking in, while Perry officiated as master of ceremonies and was both inside and outside. Neither did we see the creole beauties adding desire upon the part of the young men of the town for the hot dogs and the soft drinks, but in spite of it all a fairly large gathering turned out and we can say it without fear of contradiction that those present had a wonderful time. We will say for those musicians billed as the Original Jazz Hounds that the music they dished up for the affair was the best we have heard for a long time at any amusement affair, both indoor and out. Business in other amusement resorts called us to New York at a late hour, but in time to compare the crashing sounds of orchestras in the city as against the tunes almost soulful that entertained the folks in the country. We understand that Florence Mills sent word that an illness prevented her being present. What happened to the others we know not. A few minutes after midnight Jupiter Pluvius decided that he would make it the end of a perfect night for those residents of Jamaica that attended the affair, and the rain came down in torrents. Grabbing instruments in haste the musicians and all those present made a bee line for the headquarters of the former Midvale Boons Club, and here until the early morning hours, so we are told, they made merry while Jude deluded the land with a veritable tropical downtour. With that orchestra and a good night we opine that Messrs. Bradford and Patterson will find it unnecessary in the future to attempt to add lustre to their affairs by adding the names of performers unable or otherwise detained to make the trip to the suburban burg. They can confine their efforts to the Jamaicans and give them a weekly dance at the "Palm Garden" that would sook put out of business any dancing class operated at any of the halls in their town. "The Lost Chord" Underlined for Big Showing at This House Sunday. July 12th There is hardly a piece of music better known and loved than Sullivan's masterpiece, "The Lost Chord." The story is both simple and touching, and the music has an appeal that has made its popularity survive the passing years and the competition of other songs. The Arrow presentation of "The Lost Chord" comes to the Franklin Theatre on Sunday, July 12. That simple announcement will be enough to interest all music lovers. There is more to the picture than that, however. The production is a masterpiece of screen artistry and photographic skill, and the cast a notable one. Every one who enjoys motion pictures (and who does not, if they are good ones) will agree that Wilfred Noy, the celebrated director who was in charge of "The Lost Chord," has produced a great work. The theme of the story is that of the faithful love of a man that can outlive even death. The power of music to reach the heart of a woman is vividly presented and the tender paths of loving heart parted is softened and made sweet, by the promise of ultimate reunion. In the cast are many well-known names, among them Alice Lake, Faira Binney, Dagmar Godowsky, David Powell and Henry Sedley. These stars are not only celebrated, but they are exceedingly well chosen for the various parts in this picture. Patrons of the Franklin Theatre will use a picture in which every characterization is perfect, every emotion correctly registered, every climax handled with the sure touch of the genuine artist. No expense was shared in MIDNIGHT BENEFIT DRAWS MONSTER CROWD Performers Refused to Journey to Suburbs July 4th Pola Negri Returning to the Lincoln Theatre Coming in Another Splendid New Release Called "The Charmer" Which Will Be Shown Thursday Pola Negrí's latest Paramount picture. "The Charmer," which brings the star to the screen in her first big comedy role in a picture laid in an American setting, opens a four days' run on Thursday at the Lincoln Theatre. "The Charmer," adapted for the screen by Sada Cowan from Henry Baerlein's highly successful novel. "Mariposa," was directed by Sidney Olcott, who made "The Humming Bird." "Little Old New York" and others. The story has to do with a Spanish dancing girl, who is taken under the wing of a prominent theatrical producer and becomes the rage of Broadway. Robert Frazer and Wallace Macin in the production. MacDonald, recently seen with Betty Compson in "New Lives for Betty" has the role of a multi-millionaire philanderer, who becomes infatuated with Miss Negril, as the dancing girl. Mariposa. Frazer, as MacDonald's chauffeur, also is attracted to Pola. All through the picture these two vie with each other for her affections. Other big names in the cast include Trixie Friganza, noted stage comedienne, who plays Mariposa's mother in the picture and furnishes much of the comedy relief; Cesare Gravina, Gertrude Astor, in the role of a married in love with MacDonald; Edward Davis, who played in "Contraband" and others, and Mathilda Brunlage, MacDonald's mother and Manhattan's leading snob in "The Charmer." "The Charmer" brings Pola Negri to the screen in the type of role that first won her fame. It's a great story with a great cast and should prove great entertainment. filming of this great picture. The scenes in the little church and in the garden of the convent are beautiful almost beyond words, and everywhere the guidance of the true spirit of art is manifest. Farmers' Maces Bring Two Wins The Farmers gathered all the firecrackers left over from the Fourth and set them off under the Jamaica Club and McConnell's Colored Giants at Farmers Oval Sunday, winning both ends of a double bill. The Jamaica team was completely ruined in the opener, the Glendalers scoring a 16 to 4 victory. The game was curtailed to seven innings to allow the feature attraction to go the limit. The nightcap was a regular slugfest, the Farmers beating McConnell's outfit by a score of 15 to 12. The Farmers scored 58 runs in 26 innings over the week-end, which is probably a record for independent baseball. Heavy hitting was not the only attraction Sunday, however, the McConnell Glants giving Glendale fandom a thrill by pulling a triple play. Haddar cleaned the house with a home run in the Farmers' half of the fifth inning, making the score 12 to 6 with the homestores on the long end. Loechow walked and Sel- man singled. Mundebank slammed a hot one at Haukn, who grabbed it off his shootouts. Huecks hit Payne for the second out, after which Payne slipped the pill to Cooper, retiring the side. The scores follow: FIRST GAME Jamaica ..... 0 0 0 1 5 4 Farmers ..... 0 0 0 1 6 10 SECOND GAME McConnell Farmers ..... 0 0 0 1 10 12 About Things Theatrical Some incidents of the past few weeks focussed attention on the old-time performers and song writers which sends one "Down Memory Lane," a term lifted for the time being from our friend, Ira F. Lewis, recalling the worth of the old-time artists which some of our youngsters of the present day would deny them. The successful benefit engineered by Bill (Bojangles) Robinson naturally recalls good old Mae Kemp. We like to look back at the time Bobby and Mae, under the name of "The Kemps" were going like a house afire on the big time. Good old Bobby. We believe that his shade came to the Lafayette last Tuesday night in appreciation for what the folks were doing tor Mae. Up to last time Mae was seen on Seventh avenue she carried that same old bearing which even the stranger to her would instantly recognize as being possessed by a person of friendly disposition and even temper. Mae's smile was ready to break forth at the least provocation, and if a benefit was being given for anybody in the profession she made herself a committee of one to broadcast it. No wonder her brothers and sisters came out and made last Tuesday night something to talk about. Well known song writers, performers, musicians; etc., tendered Jesse Shipp a dinner two weeks ago and as a token of the esteem in which he is held they made him a present of a fishing outfit. Knowing Jess as we do, we make bold to assert that nothing could have pleased the brilliant collaborator on the former Williams and Walker shows better. Let Jess don an old suit and hie him to the brooks, streams and rivers and he is a happy man. One of the things of which we are proud, and which we hope our readers will accept as pardonable pride, is the fact that early in the newspaper business we lost no time in effecting a connection with such men as Jesse Shipp, Alex Rogers, the late Sam Lucas and John Hill, Bert Williams and others of the old timers too numerous to mention at this time. In Rogers and Shipp and the others we early recognized those sterling qualities which always endearced them to those with whom they were brought into contact. --- The Williams and Walker shows made a deep impression upon us, and we seriously doubt that the generation of today can boast of the same enjoyment, looking at present-day offerings, that we had when with the thousands that adorned the gallery we roared at the antics of those two great Negro performers, George Walker and Ebert Austin Williams. With a brilliancy equalled only by the late John Leubrie Hill, the Williams-Walker shows opened like a good book and carried one through connected stories that in themselves were entertaining. Add to this the splendid work of principals and chants trained by such bright minds as Jesse Shipp and Bill Elkins and realize the wonderland we of the past generation were carried into every time we attended one of these shows. The artistic ability of the late Aida Overton Walker, while perhaps rivalled by Florence Mills, has never been surpassed. Here was a woman whose art would have kept her at the very peak of the theatrical profession if she had happened to be born white. We have never since those days enjoyed song numbers so appropriate to the working out of the story, and even in the later years when Miss Walker went into vaudeville with her big act she did that which contributed much to her success, and that was to call in the same minds that turned out the successful shows of which she was an integral part. We would like to stroll "Down Memory Lane" and recall those names that lent lustre to the profession, but fear of forgetting many deters us. Some day we hope that Lester A. Walton will sit down and write at least a booklet on the accomplishments of our boys and girls of the past. We believe that the thousands of colored performers of the present day would gladly welcome such a thing. The death of Jas. M. (Aching) Thomas is another incident which keeps our mind on the glorious old days. Thomas, another member of the Williams and Walker shows, was one of the sterling members of that great combination of singers and entertainers known as "The Right Quintette." You hear of the wonders of the present day, but has anybody risen to tell us of anything superior to these boys led by Jimmie Lightfoot. The death of "Ink," which occurred suddenly last week, shocked his friends and at his bier memories will come rushing back to those who in the past traveled the road of success with old "Ink." Season after season those grand old song writers brought us numbers that remained popular long after the end of the shows for which they were written. To those who doubt the ability of such song writers as Alex Rogers, John Hill and the old guard functioning in those times we would advise the digging up of ALL THEIR SONGS. When you will have done this you will recognize in the music and lyrics a superior output of matter that came from minds which history will class as unusually bright. John Hill wrote the "Darktown Follies," staged it and found enough time to write enough song hits to bring Florenz Zeigfeld on the run from Broadway to the Lafayette Theatre. Poor old John! The Negro theatrical profession lost one of its most brilliant lights when he died, and Broadway lost a great opportunity when it allowed John to pass away without giving him the opportunity enjoyed by those of lesser attainment in later years. There's a certain halo attached to those good old folks of bygope days. We have not forgotten Ernest Hogan and the rest of them. For fifteen years we have enjoyed a certain confidence among these people for which we are grateful, and much did they contribute to what little success we might have enjoyed as a newspaper man. In trying to record the doings of these people in the amusement world we have nothing of which we need be shamed. Those long since gone to the grave will have no reason to turn over because of anything we might say. Our associates in this game will now understand why it is so hard to take some insignificant back line chorister or some would-be "hoofer" and give them the same recognition that should only be given to those who are fully deserving. Like good wine the majority of these old timers have mellowed with age, and again we rise to bow with what we can gather of Chesterfieldian grace to their accomplishments. The chorus of the Williams and Walker shows would have been principals for any of these late offerings. Talk about your ensemble singing, shades of Will Marion Cook and his cronies wielding their batons! Oh yes, we do live and not just merely exist. To inhale the sweet perfume of flowers, gaze upon the green trees, rest in the shade for a while and look back "Down Memory Lane" is indeed to live. Then, when the shades of night are falling to tenderly bring forth those records made by our friends of old and to which we listen in the quiet of a suburban retreat is an opportunity we would not exchange for all the glory of Seventh and Lenox avenues when their lights are aglow. Aye, we LIVE in the past for awhile, but unlike those "constructive" and "conservative" writers of our shade, we do not VEGETATE there. A number of colored newspapermen taking a day off in the suburbs were speaking of those impossible things which only happen in the movies. A wag in the gathering went the rest one better by remarking that certain things can only happen in Kansas City. "Take, for instance," said one of the hays, "the things accomplished by your friend Mirandy. Every time we speak of some accomplishment by one of the gentry, Mirandy horns in with an exclamation that he did the same thing, only, of course, when he was in Kansas City." Which recalls that old musical comedy, "It Happened in Nordland." No kid, now, Mirandy, "It Happened in Kansas"; also in the movies. JUN 24, JUL 8, 12 Midnight Benefit for Mae Kemp at Lafayette, Tuesday, Big Success Some of the Country's Leading Performers on Hand to Help 'Bojangles' Put Over a Splendid Bill In making this article a little longer than usual it is because we are moved with a desire to add our share towards making Mae Kemp feel that she is far from being forgotten by her old friends up here in Harlem. There are many points to the successful benefit of last Tuesday night which we feel will add to the joy of Mae and we cannot fail her. In the first place, we want to congratulate William (Bojanjles) Robinson for the untiring efforts which he put forth in this benefit, and the spirit which prompted it is but an example of that firm belief of the old timers in his fellows in the theatrical profession. Long before the regular show had closed a long line of people were in front of the Lafayette Theatre seeking to witness the kind of bill which they know only too well comes once in every blue moon. Standing room was at a premium long before the rise of the curtain, and when the overture by that splendid orchestra from the Palace Theatre sent forth its enticing strains even standees rested on the other foot expectantly. William Hahn, of "Shuffle Along" fame (you remember Bill, don't you? His work with the quirterie really stood out) acted as master, of ceremonies, and the spot was never more appropriately filled. "Usually of winning personality, Bill was in his element sparred on by what he had to offer that enthulastic gathering." And on they came to do their stuff. "There were Moss and Frye, Alberta Hunter and her boys, Williams and Tayler (recently returned from their Australian successes). Bill Robinson, Harry Fox, Tom Patricia, Ferry and Covan, the Supreme Four and others well known in and out of the profession. The occasion presented an opportunity for a move that tickled the fancy of those 'hundreds of eager, upturned faces, to say nothing of the same eager faces booking down upon the stage from the gallery, and that was when Miller and Lyles, Sisle and Blake, Florence Mills and "Bojangles" himself came on in a little offering all their own that almost had the result of taking the roof off the theatre. Mae. it was one of the grandest little touches you have ever heard of in all your career. The amusement world is fully aware of the part Sisle and Blake, Miller and Lyles and Florence Mills played in helping to make "Shuffle Along" the success it was, and when they WILDFEUER BROS.

This idea is for the leading folks to get together once a month, stage a big midnight performance and let the proceeds be deposited in a bank, withdrawals to be only for deserving cases among the colored theatrical profession. Great! Now let us see them carry it through. The benefit surpassed anything of its kind in that almost a thousand dollars were turned over, after expenses, for Miss Kemp.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WITH SUNDAY, JULY 8, 1, 45 Junior Red Cross Presents Program HAMPTON, Va., July 8.—Miss Edith Peckham of Washington, D.C., who is assistant to the director of the Junior Red Cross, spoke recently in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute, to the summer school students and instructors on "Education for Services." She said: "The trend of modern education is to socialize classroom work. The purpose of the Junior Red Cross is to help teachers train children for service. At present the Junior Red Cross is reaching some 6,000,000 school children who are at work in 30,000 schools under 150,000 teachers. The aim of the Junior Red Cross is that of helping school children express their ideas to other children through a description of their games, songs, customs, holidays and school studies. Just as children learn to do by doing, so they learn to serve by doing for others. At present the Junior Red Cross work is being carried on among school children in 40 countries. The Junior Red Cross brings into the school room an adapted program which has been made up by educators. This program seeks to develop a pure form of patriotism which teachers love for their own country, but does not tolerate hatred of other countries. The International League of Red Cross Societies, with headquarters in Paris, is now influencing people in 52 foreign countries. Miss Peckham showed some of the handicrafts which have been sent to American school children by school children of many foreign countries. She also brought with her to Hampton Institute a large collection of fine specimens of school work and handicrafts which had been made by children under the inspiration of men and women who lived as well as preached the doctrine of service and good-will.

Summer Program at Heckscher The Summer program of the Club Department of the Heckscher Foundation for Children, 1 East 104th street, went into effect July 1. There are many attractive clubs and classes for boys and girls at the nominal cost of 25c a month for two activities. Many know of the Heckscher pool, but few children know of the Heckscher roof. Here are slides, swings and teeter-tasters for the little ones; basketball, baseball and other games, under competent leaders, for the older ones. The library is open from 1 till 6 every day for all members. The Club Department has classes in the workshop where boys and girls may hammer and saw and really make things to their hearts' content. There are classes in painting, sewing, clay modelling, dramatics and dancing, all under competent teachers. A class in corrective speech on Fridays at 2.50 P. M. holds a good Summer opportunity for children of defective speech to have special attention. Every Tuesday afternoon and evening there is a good moving picture for children in the theatre and every Friday a free story hour in the chapel.

T WAS in the early Spring of 1923, while visiting a Reverend's wife in the city of New York, that I met a very lovely young man. He attracted me, as most girls are attracted, by his outward appearance. He was tall and handsome, well built in proportion to his height, neat and of a dark brown complexion. To me, he was my ideal of a perfect prince. After much anxiety, it seemed, on the part of both of us, we were finally introduced and we soon became very much acquainted. On my part, I was never so happy in being with any one as I was with him. But as the time was nearing for him to leave the city for the Summer, our pleasures were cut short. We kept in touch with each other through correspondence until the Fall, when he returned again. Let me hastily pass over the minor incidents which happened upon his return to the city. All our former happiness loomed up again, only to be short lived with the grave occurrence which I was soon to know. It was at this time that I learned he had another girl, with whom he was more intimate than he was with me, and that the other girl was urging him to stand by her as a man, for she was soon to become a mother. But I am yet to know all the particulars. In my early girlhood I had always pitted the woman who was ruined and deserted and determined if ever I should meet with such a ore I would help her to regain her place in the world, little realizing that I should some day come face to face with such a problem. This young man and young lady in question were schocirates in one of our prominent schools of the State of Virginia. It was after the school term that they secured employment at the same hotel and resort on Long Island. In the Fall of 1923 she went back to school, but the young man remained here in the city. After a time it was whispered around in school among the girls that something was wrong with the young lady, and she, fearing it might get to the principal and faculty, left school. It was then that she began to inform him of her plight. She also stared that she had heard that he was interested in a young lady in New York. That young lady was myself. "Although this he true," she wrote, "I think you should first consider me." It was now that he lost his mental equilibrium and was terribly perplexed as to what to do. He loved the girl, it seemed, but the girl did not love him, but wanted her good name saved. I loved him and he was well aware of that fact. I have seen and read of strange things, but the strangest thing I've witnessed was the way this man disclosed himself to me. Up to this time I was kept in the dark and was totally unaware of his subtle and wanton actions. The World's Children The World's Children Eighty-eight out of every 100 children brought before juvenile court officials in Omaha live one-half mile or more from the nearest playground, according to a study by Professor T. & Sullenger, of the University of Omaha. Omaha's juvenile delinquency rate for 1938-22 was 3.1 per cent, compared with 1938 rates of 3.8 for Washington, D. C., 2.4 for Boston, and 1.2 for Buffalo, it is pointed out. Remedies for juvenile delinquency urged by Professor Sullenger are more playgrounds, enforcement of pool courts, laws, censorship of motion pictures, fewer boys in street trades, more Boy Scouts, better enforcement of school laws. Safety Education Half the toll of children killed by accidents in the United States might be saved by a campaign of safety education in the schools, according to the National Bureau of Casualty and Safety Underwriters. Three university fellowships of $1,900 each for the study of safety education have been established by this Bureau. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM SUNDAY, JULY 8, 1921 To solicit my attention, he began to unfold himself to me as if he were going to relate a story from a magazine. He went on to say: "There were once two girls in love with one fellow. One of these girls the fellow brought shame to. In time the girl in trouble urged him to do the right thing by her and take her as his wife." He then confronted me with this question: "What should the fellow have done in this case? "In my opinion," I replied, "the fellow should have married the girl he wronged." When I gave him this answer he watched me through half-closed eyes, which revealed a sheepish expression, and said: "My dear, I am that fellow." After hearing the truth I knew that my love for this young man was in vain. I listened calmly to the story from the beginning and when he had finished I stood up with scarce a foot between us. I was certain that he had seen the change of my countenance, for in his climax there was a prolonged silence. Arousing from this melancholy and heart rendering reticence, I resolved to let him understand me more fully. Completely recovering my composure. I thought of what service I could be to them. Knowing that the girl cared nothing for him, I did not want to see him make his life miserable. Therefore I suggested that he write the girl and have her come to New York and I would shield her in my home through her troubles. When finally they should be over she could leave her child with him and return to the South with her secret and no one would be the wiser, except he and me. He would then be free to marry whomsoever he chose. To my surprise he absolutely refused to accept this proposition, saying, "that it would be too great a responsibility on my part not to reap a reward, which intimated that he had no intention of marrying me. After a long silence, he boldly said: "If I should marry the other girl, would you still be my best friend?" Reflecting a while, I considered this the most unpardonable question he could have asked. For, to me, the question implied a two-fold meaning of honor and dishonor. One woman was to be his wife and queen, the other his sweetheart and concubine. My answer was "No," and from that moment our relations were severed forever. How inarticulate we are when it comes to speaking of things that lie closest to our hearts. We hesitate and grow dumb, shrinking within ourselves, fearful of ridicule, of being thought sentimental and foolish. It is not pleasant to accuse one we love. In that significant, tragic moment of my life, intermingled with heartache and burning anguish, I ask my readers, "DID I DO RIGHT?" By MISS X spring of 1923, friend's wife in that I met a man.

Children's Commission, Pennsylvania Pennsylvania will continue for another two years its Commission appointed to study and revise the statutes of Pennsylvania relating to children, which was created in 1833. Thirty other states and the District of Columbia have similar commissions. One out of every 10 children working in Maryland establishments visited by child-labor inspectors in 1924 was illegally employed. The annual report of the State Commissioner of Labor and Statistic points this out. Infant Mortality, Religion An infant mortality rate in Belgium of 88.1 per 1,000 births in 1928 is announced by the Belgian Children's Bureau. This figure is contrasted with the 1923 rate, which was 107, and the rate for the years 1901-1906, which was 147.7. The Bureau attributes the improvement in the rate to the work of the child-welfare clinics and the various methods of teaching infant hygiene to the general public, introduced during the war. Child Immigration, Canada The Federal Department of Immigration of Canada has recently issued several new regulations affecting juvenile immigration into the Dominion. The new regulations provide that (1) there shall be a preliminary inspection by a Government inspector of the proposed home before placement of a child immigrant and a second visit within a month after placement; (2) no more subsidy will be granted. ed for the transportation of children under 16 years of age; (3) the department will endeavor to decrease the present proportion of girls among juvenile immigrants. Home Savings Must Begin in Kitchen Half of the income of the average family goes through the kitchen, and it is in the kitchen that the greatest savings can be made, according to a report of the American Gas Association based upon an analysis of domestic expenditures. "Overhead can be reduced in cost of materials, cost of fuel, cost of labor and depreciation, but the heaviest factor is the time and labor wanted because of antiquated kitchen equipment," says the report. "It has been shown that present day improved appliances for the kitchen cut down the cost of running the domestic table in every essential detail. Materials cost less, because less is wasted and less need be bought. Fuel is saved by the use of efficient oven heat controls and improved burners." "Oorkind in the kitchen cannot be limited to these items, however, for its real effect is found in the wayed strength and time of the housewife. "The kitchen is the one eternal thing in the home. It is the one room where purpose has never been changed, the most essential purpose of catering to happiness, health and well-being for the family." Thousands of families are using gas stoves as antiquated as a 1916 automobile, says the report. These old stoves are built too close to the ground for convenience, the ovens are badly placed and the burners require more gas than should be used. The replacement of such appliances with modern stoves would mean a material saving in fuel, with increased efficiency and ease of work. Dr. Hollis B. Frissell, Lut Principal of Hampton Institute, Is Honored on St. Helena Island, S. C.—Dr. J. H. Dillard and Company of Well-Known Americans Attend Dedication—t Gift Is Presented. HAMPTON, Va. — "The Frissell Memorial Community House" at Penn School on St. Olena Island in Beaufort County, S. C., which was recently dedicated, will perpetuate some of the ideals of community building and improvement that the late Dr. Hollis Burke Frisell, principal of Hampton Institute from 1893 until his death in 1917, taught so effectively and persistently.

Distance, 48 miles. Miss Rosa B. Cooley, in her report for the sixty-second year of the school, 1923-24, briefly described "The Fritzell Memorial Community House," which is built of oyster shells and cement. The main hall opens on terraces. The platform is part of the large dining room which opens into a well-planned, well-equipped kitchen. At the rear of the sanditarium are three connecting rooms which will house "The Laura M. Towns Memorial Library." In the basement are toilets and shower baths. The community house has been built on the site of the first school building, which for forty years was the workshop of men and women who were devoted to the cause of giving the elements of education to the Negroes of St Helena Island. The building is so useful, so simple, and so artistic that a hearty vote of thanks is due to the architect, John H. House, Jr., and his associate, C. W. Lowell, as well as the men trained at Penn and Hampton, who, with willing and loving labor, have produced a worthy memorial. George Foster Peabody, of New York and Saratoga Springs, chairman of the Penn School Board of Trustees, has given a splendid large copy of Paolo Veronese's "The Vision of St. Helena," which hangs over the great fireplace of the social hall. Another friend has given a beautiful grandfather clock. At one side of the platform is an excellent likeness of Doctor Frisell, an enlargement of a photograph takenen or twelve years ago when the Cope Industrial Building at Penn School was dedicated. With upraised arm and a serious expression of earnestness Doctor Frisell stands ready to say: "Struggle Serve." Dr. James H. Dillard, of Charlotteville, Va., president of the Jeanes and Slater Boards, described his first meeting in 1907 with Doctor Prissell, "a spiritually minded man," who desired to give all the children of all the people the opportunity to get an education so that they could live richer, fuller lives. Doctor Dillard reviewed the educational agencies as the General Education Board, the Jeanes and Slater Boards, and the State departments of education—the cooperation of many groups of both races both in and out of the South. Miss Coolay told the story of the conversion of a great pile of oyster shells—"the pile of faith," as it was long called—into a community house which embodies the ideals of Hollis B. Prissell—ideals for which he lived and gave his life—ideals which he talked over with the Pean School worker on his last visit. Mr. Feabody, who for forty years was a warm friend of Doctor Priesell, referred to the deep and abounding love which Mise Towns, Mise Murray, and all Pea School workers had expressed in their work for the men, women and children of St. Helena island and the neighboring territory. He paid a warm tribute to the "beautiful and abundant life" of Doctor Frissell - "a man with a rare mind, and a rich and abounding soul" whose thought and dreams have been expressed in this community house. Algernon S. Frissell, elder brother of Dortor Frissell, in a reminiscent strain, spoke of fancy as a day dream and imagination as an ideal toward which men work as did his distinguished brother Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, reviewed his long years of association with Doctor Frissell. He paid his measure of tribute to his teacher who had worked and suffered that men of his race might harvest the fruits of knowledge and Christian teaching. "Doctor Frissell," he said, "came as near living the life of Christ as anybody I have ever known. He never had a small, mean, or trivial thought. He always stood for justice and right-earnestness." Campbell College to Move to Mound Bayou MOUNT BAYOU. Miss. — As the recent meeting of the Board of Trustees at Campbell College, which has been located in Jackson, Mississippi, since 1898, it was decided that the location should be changed from Jackson to Mound Bayon, Mississippi, the Negro town founded by Isaiah T. Montgomery a number of years ago. The authorities of the city and of the county both white and colored, requested Campbell College Board to make this change and promised their heartiest support. Campbell College, named for Bishop J. P. Campbell, of the A. M. E. Church was founded about 38 years ago. It now owns 1,965 acres of land in this county, among the best farming acres in this section of the country, Bishop W. W. Beckett, 138 thousand acres of the school and chairman of the Board of Trustees, expressed himself as heartily approving of the move, in fact he was the leader of the movement to change the college. "I see a great future for Campbell College in its new location," said he, in urging the board to make the change: "It will be in the heart of one of the largest populations of our people in the United States, because there is no other section of the country more thickly settled by colored people than the Yazoo Delta. It will be near Mound Bayon, a Negro city, and can be helpful to it and receive help from it. In this friendly atmosphere and with its unusual physical advantages I believe Campbell College ought to come rapidly to the front, and soon rank as one of the leading institutions for the education of the colored race." Glen Cove Settlement Removes to New Quarters 113 N COVE, L. I. July 6-The Lincoln Settlement House has has removed from No. 33 Lak street to No. 113 Glen Cove con- sidered, while the building is smaller than the former premise, is much more desirable for the community activities conducted by the organization. The structure is of brick and comprises ten large rooms. The settlement was opened in 1919, sponsored principally by the late Mrs. George D. Pratt and Mrs. W. V. Hester. Its activities include a free kindergarten, baby clinic, boys and girls' clubs, athletic associations and recreation rooms. The work was brought up to his present high state of efficiency by Mr. E. H. Wilson, director, who resigned several months ago to head the Dove's Work of the Detroit T. M. C. A. The present director is Mrs. E. B. Lawrence, who is being assisted by Mrs. E. H. Wilson. CSIE Enacts Social Hygiene Law By a single stroke of legislative action, the Bills of Chile have recently joined the ranks of the nations giving special attention to the common venereal diseases. The law establishes the division of social hygiene which naturally differs from the division of venereal diseases of the United States Public Health Service by having police power for the enforcement of preventive measures. The Chilean division of social hygiene for its function the dissemination of information concerning general diseases, the creation of social hygiene professorships in colleges and universities, and the suggestion of types of elementary school instruction in social hygiene. The division is further vested with the power to control and repress prostitution. Any woman prostitute declared to have a venereal disease be to be confined to a hospital during the period of constipation. These refusing treatment are to be sent to a reformatory. Provision is also made for injection and abatement measures making it possible to close up as a nuisance any building which the owner permits to be used for purposes of prostitution. Advertisements relating to patent medicines for the cure of venereal diseases are not to be accepted for publication in newspapers and magazines, unless endorsed by the division of social hygiene. A medical certificate of good health is required from both men and women before marriage. Don't for Babies Don't expose the baby to fire. Files carry disease. Don't give the baby dirty, sour or stale stak. Don't feed the baby too often as too much. Don't let him have an easy bottle to a sink. Don't give him a pacifier or an other device to keep him quiet. Don't let him go for a day without a drink of water. Don't let him lie in wet clothes. Don't give him tea and never beer, whiskey, gin or any drink containing alcohol. Don't give him medicine or drugs without the doctor's advice. Don't let him stay up after o'clock at night. Don't pick him up every time he cries. Don't let any one kiss baby on the mouth. Don't hardie him too much; it's bad for him. Don't let his nose get clogged up. Guests in Cedarhurst. Mr. and Mrs. G. D. Jones Putnam avenue, Brooklyn. Mrs. Chas. Shaw of Washington Park.

WEINTROOB, Inc. 144 WEST 27TH ST., NEW YORK CITY Lehighwaukee 1773 By Ernest Rice McKinney (PRESTON NEWS SERVICE) T WOULD be a mighty fine thing if—this week or next—every Negro man and woman in these United States would write a letter to Oswald Garrison Villard and "The Nation." The address is 20 Vesey street, New York City. For this is the sixtieth anniversary of "The Nation." You know what that means, as to the period of its founding and the state of the nation and of the Negro at that time—1865. You may guess who Oswald Garrison Villard is when you think of that MIDDLE NAME. He is the grandson of William Lloyd Garrison, and, of course, there is not a Negro who does not know who Garrison was. It should be possible to say who Garrison IS, for he and his name should be very much alive in the thinking of every Negro child and adult. At any rate, Mr. Villard is the gentleman and in亲切 and simple manner the man who is an unpopular cause and his cause is an unpopular one. Edwin Lawrence Godkin was the founder and first editor of "The Nation." Mr. Villard says of Mr. Godkin: "He began by writing himself down as a 'nigger lover,' for the earliest issues of his paper were given to an ardent championship of the demand that the Negro be enfranchised forthwith. He, the aristocrat of the press, a man of highest intellectual attainments, actually wanted to have every last untutored black freeman given the right to vote in all his rags and in his ignorance, with his total lack of any training for citizenship except that provided by master and overseer." Such was the start of "The Nation." In spirit it is the same today. There is every reason to feel that as long as Mr. Villard lives this same spirit will dominate and breathe from every page of "The Nation" from week to week. Thus is "The Nation" and thus is the man who owns and edits it. But few Negroes know about this latter-day champion of their rights. This is the great shame of our racial life. We follow and hang on the words of cheap, tobacco spitting and lying white politicians, swallow the intellectual swill and gush of ignorant Negro preachers, wave our hats when a human cipher like Calvin Coolidge is made President and top it all off by crying "radical" when, perhaps, we see a friend reading "The Nation." The older Negroes will, no doubt, die steeped in this attitude. But it is time that the younger Negro broke away. It is time now that he know the difference between a gilded brick and a bar of gold. He should cease to be afraid of being called "radical." Any Negro with the sense of a beast must be a radical. That is, he should have the clear vision and the courage to look through the bunk and tommyrot of the Republican Party, of the capitalist employers who feed the strife that keeps white and black workers from getting together, of the white preacher who praises and encourages our "simple childlike faith" of the white platform windjammer who tells us—with tongue and cheek—of our wonderful progress. There is but one white man and but one black man worth following That is the white man or black man who believes in the actual brotherhood of all men; who believes in and practices basic human equality—intellectual, social, economic and political. OSWALD GARRISON VILLARD is such a man and "The Nation" is his mouthpiece. Whites' Silver Wedding Mr. and Mrs. Robert White, of 265 Clifton place, were given a sur- prise party recently by their five children on their 25th anniversary. The children are: John A. James H.

Mrs. Will Schomburg Speaks on Early Manhattan From $60 to $60 was the price paid for Negroes in Manhattan in the early history of New York. That was revealed Sunday afternoon by Arthur A. Schomburg when he spoke on "Phases in the Early History of Manhattan" before the St. James Prebyterian Church Forum. Mr. Schomburg briefly outlined the Spanish French and English history of New York with that background he has noted of the first five Negroes who matured in New York. The greatness of some of the Negroes in the early history of Manhattan was vividly depicted. The lives of Katy Ferguson, Francis Tarbin, Alexander Cromwell, William Hamilton, a descendant of Alexander Hamilton, were some of them that Mr. Schomburg described. To kill the early inspiration of the people a number of Negroes were hanged for an alleged conspiracy. What is Harlem now was merely a wilderness, a hiding places for slaves who ran away from their masters, he said. In 1757 the African Society, the oldest society in the United States today, was incorporated. About the same time Katy Ferguson established the first Sunday school in New York. The school was composed of 20 white and 20 colored children. For that endid work, Benjamin Lawson said this: "Ian't it a shame we have left this work for a poor colored woman whose mother was born a slave?" Prior to the talk made by Mr. Schomburg, a bass solo was rendered by Thomas Meritri and an instrumental selection was given by little Miss Cabey. Dr. Julia Coleman, president of the Forum, before initiating the speaker told of the psu pose of the organization. Edward W. Buckley to Speak for Hylan Tacts About New York City Hospitals" will be the subject of a talk by Edward W. Buckley, director of the budget, who acted for Mayor Hyland in the Harlem hospital situation, at a mass meeting under the auspices of the Harlem Welfare Council at Grace Congregational Church, Monday evening. July 13. The desire of the public to know why Negroes have no representation in city hospitals besides the Harlem and what the prevailing conditions are in these institutions is largely the purpose of the meeting. it is claimed by officers of the council. Other speakers to be on the program are the Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor of the church; the Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor of St. Mark M. E. Church; Counselor William L. Patterson and Mrs. E. A. Warren.

Mr. Sweet declared that the time had come to put an end to mob law in America and he directly attributed the increase in mobbism to the hatred and spirit of lawlessness shown by the Ku Klux Klan.

Among the states suggested as possible homes for the klan broadcasting stations are New Jersey, Indiana and practically all of the southern states.

The 369th Infantry, under command of Col. William A. Taylor, held a special review and parade at its armory in honor of Dr. Matthew V. Boutte, a former captain in the 92d Division and commander of the Col. Charles Young Post of the American Legion. It was the first time in the history of the country, to the knowledge of the writer, that an invitation was extended to a colored citizen to review a regiment, and the honor is regarded in military circles as a high one. The occasion was most significant both from a military and civic standpoint and was the first step on the part of Col. Taylor, the new commander, to bring the regiment closer to the community and to have it become more a factor in community life. The review was a brilliant military setting, and was attended by a large gathering of distinguished men and women of both races, many of them standing high in military and civic life. Strict military courtey prevailed throughout the evening. The armory was beautifully decorated. Special guests, invited by Dr. Boutte, were given special reserve sections for the review. The members of the Col. Young Post sat in a body on the south side of the armory. Dr. and Mrs. Boutte arrived at the hall under military escort. Mrs. Boutte, who had just arrived from France during the day, was met on entrance to the armory by Capt. Lucas and escorted to the section reserved for Dr. Boutte and staff. Dr. Boutte was met by the regimental and Col Young Post staffs and escorted across the armory to the reviewing stand while the band played a martial air. The members of Dr. Boutte's personal staff were: Dr. Louis T. Wright. William Service Ball. William H. Cooper. Dr. Ernest Alexander. Dr. Lisle Carter and T. B. Dyett. An exhibition drill was given by the non-commissioner officers' school under Major Kerney O'Connor.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 1928 Mother Zion Church The attendance at Mother Zion Church last Sunday taxed the capacity of the church, both in the main auditorium and the gallery. This was Auxiliaries' Rally Day. At 10.45 a.m., Junior Church services were opened in the Lecture Room. This being the first Sunday in the month, Baptism and Holy Communion services were conducted by Rev. P. A. Price and Rev. A. N. Watkins. In the main auditorium, services were opened at 11 a.m. Prior to the sermon, an opportunity was given for contributions to the Building Fund. The pastor announced his text from Psalms 61:2, his subject being "David's Cry for Help." The speaker eneavoured to show that at times in the life of a Christian there are many opportunities of the spiritual weakness of the individual. At its close ten persons came forward and were received into the church. The Sunday school opened at the usual hour. The session was largely attended. Mrs. firtha DesVerney, director of the Sunday School Choir, made a presentation of $54—the proceeds from the first annual Sunday School Choir recital, which was held on Wednesday evening, July 1. At 8 p. m., Dr. Brown preached an annual sermon to the Deborah Circle. The Auxiliaries' Building Fund campaign, beginning Feb. 1, closed last night with a total of over $20,000, $3,000 of which was laid on the table last night.

Society was called to order under the supervision of the new president, Rev. J. R. Johnson. The opening services were opened at 8 P. M. The sermon was delivered by Dr. Oliver. Salem M. E. Church The Rev. Dr. Thomas Bond, a member of the New York Annual Conference, was the speaker at the services at the church last Sunday morning. He discussed at length the topic of love, tracing all its ramifications and noticing various tints. Dr. Bond's selection of this subject was inspired by Christ's questioning of St. Peter. "Loveth thou Me?" How love manifests itself through the life and actions of the lover and how the lover in turn becomes like into the object of his love was the theme of the sermon. It is with pride that the Salem-Crescent Athletic Club received the news from the Const that one of its entrants in the national championship games, held in Pascadera Calif., was successful. Charles Major of Syracuse University, but wearing the Salem-Crescent colors, won the junior and senior national championship quarter-mile races. Cecil Cook was the other lad sent to represent the church club, but he was not so fortunate in his events. The Salem-Crescent Athletic Club enjoys the distinction of being the only colored club in the country to be represented in the games. St. Mark's M. E. Church The morning and evening services of St Mark's M. E. Church were attended by large congruations. The assistant pastor, Rev R. A. Bolden, was the speaker at the morning service and delivered a very eloquent and forceful sermon. The services throughout the entire day were held in the basement of the new church, situated at 137th and 138th streets, St. Nicholas and Edgecombe avenues. At the evening services a stер포션 lecture on "Liberia, Africa" was ally delivered by Mr. Henry B. Duncan, a native of Liberis. Following Mr. Duncan's lecture, a large stik American flag was civiled on the church by the Boy Scouts, Blue Birds and Rangers of St Mark's Church. Extensive preparations are being made for the Sunday's school's annual excursion to Forest View Grove on Thursday, July 23.

E. Church, Brooklyn. HARLEM 2ND S. D. A. "One of the reasons why, many years ago, the Jews in Palestine lost their political government, their crown and sceptre; one of the reasons why their beloved Jerusalem was taken from them and burned, was because; they trempled under their impious feet God's holy Sabbath," said Easter Strachan last Sunday night at the Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church, 106-108 West 127th street. Said the minister, further: "Among the holiest of all treasures with which the Lord had endowed his chosen people, none were so freighted with blessing as was the Sabbath. And when, in their pursuit of commercial intercests, the Hebrews blinded their eyes to the holy command, Jehovah wrenched from them both their power and their place; and he added an irrevocable decree that that power and place should never be restored to them again so long as time should last." Africans Organize Missionary Society A home missionary society, to be known as the "Society to Aid in Evangelization," has been organized by the African Christians in Quessua, Angola, Africa, according to a report made by Mrs. R. B. Kipp, missionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church in that district, to the Board of Foreign Missions. These African Christians have raised a number of money sufficient to cover the expenses of sending one of their own children to a distant outpost in a section of Angola where the Methodist Episcopal Church is not at present working. They propose to continue to help send out this and other home missionaries in years to come. "People are coming to us from long distances making for teachers and pastors," says Mrs. Kupr. "This last week two men came a distance of forty miles with the news that 190 of their fellows had given up their skills and was some one there to teach them. They say that, if the present location of their village does not suit the environment, they will indulge another in which they will move. At another point, where there is a cluster of small native villages which have hitherto been considered heathen. 21 men have promised to begin building at once a house for chapel and school, if we will send a teacher. The women and children want to help, also. At Quenan, after several days of prayer and preaching and instruction 100 persons were added to the roll of preparatory membership in the Methodist Episcopal Church and 27 were received into full membership recently. Mr. and Mrs. Kipa have just endowed twenty years of mission service in Africa. Mrs. Kipa was born in Adams, Mass, and entered missionary service from Lowell, Mass. She is a graduate of the Adams High School and of the Benedictine Training School in Boston. She was a teacher of music and church organist in Adams, Mass, before her appointment at a mastersian.

San Mateo St. FRISE BARREL 1200 Venereal Diseases Dcstroyers of Health and Wealth BY THE U. S. PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE While educational and legal measures for the control of venereal diseases aim through general public enlightenment and legislative enactment to lessen and eliminate exposures to infection, the medical measures have for their object the control and treatment of persons already infected. It is entirely erroneous to consider these infections solely the result of illicit relations. Congenital and innocently acquired infections are by no means infrequent, but in whatever way acquired the problem of the health officer is the same, namely, to prevent the spread of infection to other persons and to cure those who are actually infected. Not infrequently venereally infected persons have become a danger to public health because of financial inability to secure proper medical care. It is, therefore, essential to maintain venereal disease clinics for free diagnosis and treatment of indigent persons. Whenever it is found that persons who apply for treatment in a clinic are able to pay for such treatment, they are directed to private physicians. Care is exercised that public funds will not be used for the treatment of those who are able to pay for it. Clinics should be centrally located and operated at hours convenient to the success of a clinic to find the sources of venereal infection and to get such persons to the clinic for treatment, eliminating thereby further danger of infection to others in the community. At prenatal clinics prospective mothers should be able to receive examination and treatment with a view of preventing the infection of the unborn child. There is abundant evidence that such treatment, when necessary, reduces the possibility of the child becoming infected. Even though the newborn child of a syphilitic mother does not show active signs of infection at the time, it should be kept under medical supervision for examination and any required treatment and care. Small communities and rural districts may in many cases find it practicable to make use of the clinical facilities in a neighboring city. In such cases the country board may contribute to the support of the clinic. Should this be deemed inexpedient, a traveling clinic may be organized, or the community may furnish funds for the provision of drugs, or these may be provided by the State Board of Health. Provision should be made for hospital care of patients whose condition makes treatment at a clinic impossible or less effective. Special wards for the treatment of venereal cases should be established in municipal, county and city hospitals. Treatment should be made available those who are unable to pay for it. Early diagnosis and treatment of venereal diseases require scientific laboratory examination, analyses. It is essential that laboratories for this purpose be established for use of clinics, hospitals and private physicians. The insidious nature of syphilis and gonorrhea, the not infrequent development of complications due to the individual peculiarities of the patient make it imperative to the welfare of the infected person that he place himself under the continued care of a competent physicians. Hence, druggists should refuse to sell nostrums for self-treatment of venereal diseases and they should direct the person seeking treatment to a venereal disease clinic or a reputable physician. All cases of, renalene disease should be promptly reported as required by law to the State health authorities. The attending physician is responsible for instructing the infected person as to the nature of syphilis or gonorrhea, which over the case may be, the necessity of continued treatment, and the inherent dangers to the individual and the community. Should the patient fail to continue under treatment or should he subject others to infection, it becomes the duty of the attending physician to notify the State health officer, so that the danger to others in the community may be removed by the enforcement of quarantine and necessary treatment. The Conference of the Venereal Control Officers of the State Health Department and the United States Public Health Service, held at Hot Springs, Arkansas, in December of last year, endorsed a resolution recommending that greater efforts be made by official and voluntary agencies to devise measures for immediate disinfection of persons who have exposed themselves to possible venereal disease infection. Such prophylaxis, it is urged, would substantially reduce the number of cases of syphilis and gonorrhea. Immediate and continued treatment of venereal disease should be stressed. Both syphilis and gonorrhea best yield to treatment in the early stages, but even old or syphilis cases of these diseases may be arrested or cured by continued and competent medical care and treatment. Various diseases are responsible for an apparently great amount of suffering and for an enormous expenditure of money. This pain and this expense are largely available, for syphilis and genital warts. --- preventable and curable. We have seen that the situation is serious, but we have also seen that the remedy is at hand. Conservative citizens will see to it that all those communities to suppress systems and gorobrhes, the age-old destroyers, of health, wealth and happiness. Denmark Reduces Venereal Diseases According to a recent report by Dr. F. T. H. Wood, of the Health Section of the League of Nations Secretariat, syphilis has been reduced in Copenhagen, Denmark, from 8.8 per 10,000 in 1910 to 4.6 in 1922. The rate of infection with gonorrhea also shows a considerable decline. It is of interest in this connection that Denmark was the first country to introduce legislation dealing with the control of venereal diseases. As early as 1788 the plan of free treatment and compulsory medical care of venereally infected individuals was adopted. Since then the effectiveness of the eradication of syphilis and gonorrhea has been strengthened by limiting medical practice to qualified medicine advertising promoting clinical and hospital facilities, and establishing the "state Serum Institute," which has for its main functions the laboratory diagnosis of syphilis and the maintenance of a card index of persons so infected. Denmark has been uniformly successful in the control of venereal diseases, except in two instances. In the sixteenth century, King Christian III issued a decree proclaiming that persons infected with venereal disease were to be refused hospital treatment, so that they might suffer punishment for their immorality. At a later date, venereal disease prevention measures received another setback by the development of a feeling of public apathy, a feeling that enough had already been done, and that a degree of safety from the spread of venereal disease was at hand. Both of these instances were followed by an increase in the rate of infections, in which awakened a realization of the importance of continued effort in the field of venereal disease control, so that Dr. H. Hausstein, Assistant at the Charlie, estimates that during the current first quarter of the present century a decrease in new infections of 32% per cent has already taken place in Denmark.

RUTH ALLEN Pretty Girl to Enter Columbia Miss Ruth Allen Considered Best All-Round Athlete in New Jersey The beautiful Ruth Allen, 17, of Leonla, N. J., is attending summer school at Columbia College. She graduated this June from the Leonla High School. During her high school career she took an active and outstanding part in athletics. She is considered as the best all-around athlete in the State of New Jersey. The championship of Bergen County that came to Leonla High School in the annual interscholastic meet was admittedly due almost entirely to the remarkable versatility of the little track star. Competing with the fastest girl athletes of high schools for miles around, Ruth Allen flashed in first and second place victories that gave her school a total of 15 points and the championship, and made her the individual high point scorer of the day. She annexed, four gold medals and piled a higher point total than her own school captain. Her wins came in the running broad jump, the century and the 60-yard dash, while she ran as lead-off on the winning relay team. An ovation greeted her as she stepped up for her prizes. A varsity team member since 1822, Miss Allen is considered one of the best forwards in girls' basketball in this state. She has ex- Enjoy Life!

ANTHONY AERY HAMPTON, Va. — Dr. James Hardy Dillard, president of the Jeanes and Slater Boards, recently stated these facts concerning the county training schools for colored boys and girls in the South: Number of schools, 233; schools with boarders, 202; schools with dormitories, 51; average cost of dormitory, $4,851; number of dormitory boarders, 1,057; number of out-boarders, 4,541; total number of boarders, 6,198. Of the 31 county training schools without boarders there were six in Georgia, five in Kentucky, and four in Oklahoma. DORMITORY DEDICATION. At the close of the recent anniversary exercises at Hampton Institute a party of men and women journeyed by automobiles to the Gloucester County Training School, a community school, which is located about 10 miles from Gloucester Point, Va. Thomas C. Walker, a well-known Hampton graduate, a lawyer-farmer, is the principal. Duke Gives $15,000 for Crippled Negro Children (Preston News Service.) RALEIGH, N. C., July 6—Word has just been received that Buchanan N. Duke, noted North Carolina philanthropist, of New York City, has given funds to the North Carolina Orthopedic Hospital at Gastonia to establish a ward for crippled Negro children there, according to an announcement made by The people in the neighborhood of this county training school have come under the helpful influence of a considerable number of Hampton graduates who have worked with the Principal Walker to develop a fine type of school for the training of country boys and girls. Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, delivered the chief address. After expressing his pleasure at coming into the circle of Doctor Frissell's friends, he paid a warm tribute to the "simple, saintly spirit" of Hampton's late beloved principal. "Doctor Frissell's life," he said, "is going on . . . Who could ask a more satisfying reward, a truer fame, a greater glory, than that which has been given to Doctor Frissell! All of us if we will can lead the kind of life that he led." Doctor Gregg emphasized the idea that through the carrying of Principal Walker's arms and girls, his own people the boys and girls, came from the house of Gloucester. County now have a real school, one that will give every individual who accepts its advantages a start in the attainment of knowledge, trustworthiness, and ability to get on with all sorts of people. Dr. James H. Dillard said that the principals and teachers of the county training schools wish to have dormitories built so as to extend the good influence of the class room work. He made a strong plea to the young people that they should exert themselves to learn accurately what they are given the opportunity to learn. "It is the absolute duty," he said, "of every human being to be free, to be able to support himself and others." The State Commissioner of Welfare, Dr. J. T. Mastin, referred to the helpful influence of Doctor Frissell in suggesting a method of caring for dependent children drun. Dr. Robert R. Cotton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, said: "This school is to give people of their minds, their hearts and their bodies. It is here to help people learn to live honest, industrious, pure, useful lives. Doctor Frissell was a man of great power, a man of great force. He was always under perfect control. He amused at adversity." Jackson Davis. field agent of the General Education Board, referred to the memorial dormitory as being "dedicated to the service of young people of this county." In speaking of Doctor Frissell, Mr. Davis said: "You have a song, 'I Know the Lord Laid His Hands on Me.' This applies with great force to Doctor Frissell. When he took me by the hand I felt that I was shaking hands with one of the apostles. Doctor Frissell loved people who lived in country homes. This dormitory is a home which is a fitting and beautiful memorial to Doctor Frissell. It is to be used for the greater opportunity of young people. It is to be used for making people free. Because of this building the Gloucester County Training School can serve a greater area." TWO PAY DEATH PENALTY. HUNTSVILLE, Tex., July 6.

Duke Gives $15,000 for Crippled Negro Children (Preston News Service.) RALEIGH, N. C. July 6—Word has just been received that Buchanan N. Duke, noted North Carolina philanthropist, of New York City, has given funds to the North Carolina Orthopedic Hospital at Gustavia to establish a ward for crippled Negro children there, according to announcement made by Mrs. Kate Burr Johnson, Commissioner of Public Welfare. It is said that Mrs. Johnson suggested to Mr. Duke the great need of such a ward and Mr. Duke, it is said, handed Mrs. Johnson a check for $15,000. Mrs Johnson returned from New York City last week and handed Mr. Duke's check to Dr. R. B. Babbington, chairman of the board of trustees of the Orthopedic Hospital. Mrs. Johnson says that Mr. Duke's gift will enable the institution to build and equip a ward of ten beds and maintain it until the end of the year, when it will be necessary to ask for continued maintenance. SCORES NORDICS WHO SPURN CO-OPERATION "We Nordics who are inclined to suppress the Negro race forget that our own ancestors not many centuries ago were a horde of barbarians who swept across Europe to almost utter destruction of the Graeco-Roman civilization," the Rev. John M. Pearson, associate pastor of the Madison Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church, Madison avenue and 64th street, said in his sermon Sunday morning. "Christ's teachings were a Declaration of Independence for those of markind who followed Him," he continued, "but in our independence we must not forget our interdependence. The individual who attempts to live by himself finds that in modern civilization this is impossible. It is equally impossible for nations and races and, though we must always cherish independence, we must not be little the possibilities of co-operation." DR. TRENT ELECTED PRES. OF LIVINGSTONE The election of Dr. W. J. Trent of Atlanta, Ga., as president of Livingstone College, Sellebury, N.C. has so stimulated the Zion Church of which this is its chief institution of learning, that plans were inaugurated at the trustees' meeting in Washington in June to raise $100,000 immediately for 'the maintenance of a standardised college of arts, science and literature. This money is to come out of the humble earnings of members and friends of our own group and will be the first time such a task has been undertaken by Negroes for Negro education.

Dawes From Abolition Stock (Preston News Service.) MARTIANA, Ohio, July 6—On numerous occasions Vice-President Charles G. Dawes has shown himself to be fair and square on questions affecting the Negro. His usual frankness in expressing his convictions has caused many Negroes to study the life and habits of Mr. Dawes. While Negroes are studying his life it will prove of interest to them to read what Louis Ludlow has to say about him. Mr. Ludlow says in part: "During the recent anniversary celebrations of Paul Revere's famous ride the country became advised that Vice-President Charles G. Dawes' paternal great-grandfather accompanied that great horseman on his dash to sound warnings of the approach of the British. "It does not appear to be generally known, however, that the VicePresident's maternal great-great-grandfather, Menachest Cutter, after serving as chaplain in the Continental Army, put over one of the largest land deals ever consummated with the Government, and thus became known as the greatest lobbyist of his day, using that term in an entirely respectful sense. "Menachest Cutter, along with General Rufus Putnam and a few others, obtained 5,000,000 acres of land from Congress at one dollar an acre. The extent of the transaction may be appreciated from the fact that the area embraced in the grant was equivalent to one-fifth of the State of Ohio. Slavey Abolished. "The proposition which Cutler and his group succeeded in putting through Congress provided for the large amount of the money to be resold to Revolutionary War veterans, who should be allowed to pay for their tracts with the script or notes of indebtedness which had been issued them by the then almost penileless government, and which consequently were of little negotiable value at that time. Cutler formed a company for this undertaking, known as the 'Ohio Company of Associates', and also succeeded in including a provision for the exclusion of slavery, which he cleverly got through Congress before the southern members of that body considered the possible effect sufficiently to become allowed. The Rev. Menaesse Cutler and General Rufus Putnam were instrumental in establishing the first settlement at Marietta, Ohio, where many years later the present Vice-President and his three brothers were born. "In New York City there is a tablet commemorating the great land deal that was directed by General Dawes' direct ancestor. All of the original papers in regard to the Cutler purchase are now in the Vice-President's library. It would seem, therefore, that the financial abilities and success of the four Dawes boys are a natural inheritance." It would also seem perfectly natural that the splendid attitude General Dawes has taken in all cases where the welfare of the Negro race has been affected as an inheritance from this sturdy, true and Puritanic stock. OPPOSE COLONIZATION OF JAPANESE IN GA The movement to colonise idle farm land in Georgia with Japanese has met with each opposition that abandonment of the project is regarded as certain. Many Negroes, it is said, have returned to the cotton fields after journeys in industrial centers of the North, but the return movement has not been so general as the migration northward. Georgian farmers, it is said, are watching the Japanese farm employees experiment in Ohio, Arkansas and other states before trying it out on their own territory.

PHILADELPHIA — Commencement exercises of the Merry Hospital and School for Nurses were held recently at St. Peter Clavera's Auditorium. The brilliantly lighted, beautifully derated auditorium was filled to capacity with a representative gathering of old Philadelphia families supplemented by no inconsiderable number of visitors from other sections of the country who were present to witness the graduation of their friends. Miss Ethel E. Campbell, historian of the graduating class, created quite a portion of mith in the auditorium by her rendition of the class history, while Miss Clarice M. Blue, class poets, incited much admiration by her clever recitation which was founded upon the motto of the Nurses' School, "Labor Conquera All." Following this, Miss Claria Alice Ivory completely captivated her audience with the charm of her lyric soprano voice. Mrs. Adah B. Thoms, Registered Nurse of New York City, who was formerly Superintendent of the School for Nurses at Lincoln Hospital there, was the speaker of the evening. She delivered a simple yet all-encompassing, practical address to the graduating class, choosing as her subject, "Responsibilities of the Graduate Nurse." Mrs. Thoms is a charming woman of forceful personality, and all who come into contact with her hold her in high esteem.

Johnson, W. A. Fountain, A. J. Carey, W. T. Vernon, R. C. Ransom and A. L. Gaines. Those absent were Bishop S. Flipper and Bishop S. Flipper on account of Jay, Bishop John Hurst, who was delayed on account of the general of Bishop W. D. Chappelle of South Carolina; Bishop W. Sampson Brooks, who is now on route to West Coast Africa; Bishop John A. Gregg, who is in South Africa, and Bishop J. S. Conner, retired. The general officers present were Drs. D. M. Baxter, business manager of the A. M. E. Book Concern; R. R. Wright, Jr., editor of the Christian Recorder: John R. Hawkins, financial secretary; E. H. Colt, missionary secretary, and Ira T. Bryant, manager of the Sunday School Union. There were also many distinguished pastors present from various parts of the country. The object of the meeting so far away from the center of the African Methodist Episcopal population is to acquaint the leaders of the church with this section of the country, and all have expressed themselves as highly pleased. On Friday night a welcome reception was given by the citizens of Los Angeles, the welcome address being made by Rev. A. M. Ward, presiding elder of the North California Conference, on behalf of the presiding elders: Assemblyman F. M. Roberts, on behalf of the state; Rev. H. W. Proud, on behalf of the Interdenominational Ministerial Alliance of the city; Mrs. Charlotte Bass, on behalf of the press; Atty. W. O. Tyler, on behalf of the professional men; Mr. Wallace A. Clark, on behalf of the business men. Bishop W. H. Heard responded. On Saturday morning Bishop A. J. Carey prescheduled the annual sermon for the bishops, and the holy communion was served by the associate bishops. The bishops then went into executive session. Memorial exercises were held for Bishop W. D. Chappelle, who died in Columbia, S. C. June 18th and was buried June 19th, at which expressions concerning the life and character of this churchman were made. Among the important things coming before the bishops were the appointment of a successor for Bishop Chappelle over the Seventh Episcopal District, which includes the State of South Carolina; the appointment of a president of the Sunday School Union Board, located in Nashville, Tenn., over which Bishop Chappelle presided; the final approval of the project for the erection of a $300,000 Book Concern building in the city of Philadelphia which matter was presented to the bishops by Dr. D. M. Baxter, the business manager. Chicago, July 6. - For the first time in its history the Pullman Company has named one of its cars after a porter. The porter was Oscar J. Daniels of Chicago, who died in an effort to save the five of passengers on his car when a train carrying excursionists from Chicago to New York was wrecked, on June 18, near Boston, M. J. The excursion Hospital, the largest one since the founding of the institution in 1907. In the eighteen years of its existence, the School for Nurses has held fourteen commencements, graduating in all, excluding this year's graduates, fifty-eight nurses. Diplomas were presented by the late Dr. Henry L. Phillips, president of the Mercy Hospital Board of Directors, to the following young women: Elsie L. Harris, Chester, Pa.; Clarice M. Blue, Savannah, Pa.; Ethel E. Campbell, Philadelphia, Pa.; Lolla B. Harmon, Me.; Emily Arrington, Hatboro, Pa.; Lonnie E. Theus, Oberlin, Ohio; Mary E. Thompson, Belfonte, Pa.; Ruth E. Wright, Salem, Va.; Georgia L. Brown, Wilkes-Barre, Pa.; Myrtle M. Crigler, Willow Grove, Pa.; and Hannah Saunders Booker, Swarthmore, Pa. Miss Ethel E. Campbell was awarded the prize for the highest average earned during the entire three-year course of training, while Miss Myrtle M. Crigler received both the prize for the second highest average and the prize awarded to the best all-around nurse. Many other prizes were awarded to graduates and undergraduates. The Mercy Hospital and Training School for nursing fast becoming one of the largest and finest equipped institutions of its kind in the East. Under the superintendence of Dr. Henry M. Minton, with Miss Albertine Felts as superintendent of nurses, the institution, although comparatively young ranks well forward among the best the race has to offer. Episcopal Bishops er Council in Calif. Sirocco will bear the name Dau- nels when it emerges from the re- pair shops. At the time of the wreck Daniels was seated in the forward end of the frat Pullman, which left the rails, halting near the locomotive from which dense clouds of steam poured in through a door. Daniels braved the steam to close the door. He succeeded, but fell mortally injured. He still was alive when witnesses to the car, but after being taken outside he refused first aid, saying, "Attend to that little girl first." The doctors obeyed, and when they returned they found Daniels dead. PITTSBURGH AMERICAN IN LARGER QUARTERS (Preston News Service). PITTSBURGH, Pa., July 6.—Since the management of the Pittsburgh American Publishing Company came into the hands of John L. Clark, about two months ago, the job printing department increased so rapidly that the company was compelled to move into larger quarters to enable them to add sufficient presses and equipment to take care of the increased business. The plant is now located at 634 Wylie avenue. REMEMBERS AGED (President News Service.

Had the girl not had presence of mind enough to fiag the train when she saw that a tree had fallen across the track the engineer says it might have jumped the track and fallen fifty feet down the mountain side. FORTY passengers were on the train at the time, many of whom may owe their lives and certainly their safety to this little girl, Yet, the passengers whose lives she safeguarded have de- caged that this same girl is not good enough to ride with them and that when she rides a train she must be jim crowed. OSCAR J. DANIELS > WE NOTE with pleasure that the Pull- man Company has named one of its cars for Oscar J. Daniels, who volun- tarily sacrificed his life in the Rockport, New Jersey, railroad wreck that a little child might be given medical aid first. While we thoroughly appreciate the honor conferred upon the memory of Porter Daniels, we trust that his self- denial, his loyalty to his trust and the manly spirit shown by him may actuate the company in whose employ he died to open a little wider the door of oppor- tunity for other Negroes in its service. WORDS, THAT’S ALL “| WOULD LIKE to see every child born into the world given an opportu: nity for its fullest development. Chil- dren are a part of God’s plan; they come into the world without their own voli- fion, and every child has a right to all the advantages which life can give.” A NOBLE TRUTH, well told, by Amer- ica’s greatest comedian, William Jea- nings Bryan. . : A CRUSADE has been started for cleaner post office lobbies and neater post office boxes in apartment houses and residences.

F all the words in the dictionary the one word which comes nearest to describing and comprehending the “American Race Problem” ix the word segregation.

Every exam. ple illuntrater the truth that the more sexregation, the more trouble. In every Northern center where segregation enters, prof- udice ond inter-ractal troubles increare—tor the plain and homely reason that negrega- tion decreases the opportunt- ties of the peopie to know each other, and better knowledge of each cther is what they need in order to get along bettor together.

Biace thie deciston, however, the medinevalista have tur rowed from a new direction, making private agreements in contracts and deeds of sale to exclude some proscribed mi- nority from a specified terri- tory; apd, when this privats agreement is vioiated by any party to tt, the others propose to use injunctions of the courts of all the people to enforce thie privately determined seg- ‘regation. ‘This attack on the integrity of American citizenship must ‘be finally deveated.
