Labor Day
ANOTHER Labor Day is about to take its turn in the history of American industry, when celebrants from the ranks of the toiling masses will gaze into the looking glass and note whether joy or sadness prevails over the features of Labor, the supplement of Capital and the chief parent of production. The black workmen of the country, during the past year, have made advancement despite the special menaces which have constantly beset them.
In the East and in the Middle West they have increased their membership, both mixed and separate, in organization units of a varied type, from the A. F. of L. to other special classes of unions. In New York City they have increased their entrance into a few trades and occupations heretofore and even now difficult of entrance. In construction work, in the steel industry, at the automobile plants, on the railroads and in the mines the Negro workers have advanced both in classification and in wage scales; while on the farms and in personal and domestic service, even though slightly increased numbers are noted, the proportion of inclusion of the Negro group cannot be said to show any marker change. Due to organization difficulties, founded in the hearts of their enemies by prejudice, the Negro labor group has been a target for propagandists, both radical and conservative, each of whom, as this particular group, has but I permanently been sincere with D. black masses of American workmen.
After all, what does the Negro workman want for himself in a realous endeavor to produce American wealth and at the same the realize a profitable return for is expended efforts of his muscur frame and willing brain? He was the chance that all American gr are presumed to have: A savg wage and the right to bargain with capital as he sees fit. He was the equal chance to become a public himself. He wants a havy home for his family and the chiee to educate his children according to the ideals of American educational institutions. He wants boy and girl to have the chance to serve apprenticeships at any ide or occupation they may cheer; and having served, he wants em pet to have to face the spect of disemination at the gates employment. He wants peace—fus.

SAYS FRIEND OF 15 YEARS ATTEMPTED BURGLARY
Sherman Richardson Held in Bail of $1,000 on Charge of William Lyles
After 15 years of close friendship between two men and their families, one is being charged by the other with burglary. Sherman Richardson, 327 West 52d street, is being held in $1,000 bail by the Grand Jury on a complaint made by William Lyles, a chauffeur for the Department of Street Cleaning, who lives at 201 West 146th street. Richardson was arraigned before Magistrate Brodsky in the Heights Court Monday morning. Lyles claimed that he left his apartment last Monday morning about 11 a.m. and returned shortly after noon. On his return, he said, the door had been forced open with a jimmy and that Richardson, had been one of his close friends for 15 years, was in the apartment. Articles valued at $500 were wrapped for transportation.
When Richardson was questioned by his friend for being in the apartment, he said that he had come to visit him. Lyles stated. Without asking more questions Lyles told him that he was going to have him arrested. He then called a policeman and had Richardson arrested. Lyles declared.

"To Err Human," Even for Police
Man Believed to Have Shot His Wife Proven Innocent
A charge against John Hoggins, 213 W. 142nd St., for shooting his wife was dismissed Friday morning, in the Washington Heights Court when it was learned that the conclusions drawn by police officers were false.
Blood which the officers took for evidence that the man's wife had been shot was the result of an injury Hoggins received when his head struck against a bed.
When neighbors of Hoggins heard two pistol reports, they notified the 135th St. police station. On investigating, the police said they found the carpet and bed stained with blood. Hoggins also had an empty gun holster attached to his trousers. The accused man was bleeding and was rushed to the Harlem Hospital. The police drew the conclusion that the man had shot his wife and hid her body. Mrs. Hoggins appeared in court Friday morning, but she made no complaint. Through Hoggins' attorney it was disclosed that the couple had had a quarrel and that Hoggins, being drunk at the time, fell, striking his head against the bed.
White Boy Accused of Murdering Girl
CAIRO, Ill. Aug. 31.—A well known white boy of Cairo, Ill., college student and graduate of the Cairo High School, where he played on the football team, is held in $5, 000 ball, charged with the murder of Frances Cherry, a young colored woman, who disappeared from her room on July 28 and has not been heard from since then. The warrant charging murder has been sworn out by the mother of the girl.
The boy admitted taking out an automobile on the night the girl disappeared and blood stains were subsequently found on the car, which the boy explained by saying he cut his head trying to lower the windshield. He denies ever having known the girl, but conflicting stories he has told of his whereabouts on the night of the crime are being investigated by the police.

ENOUGH POISON IN COFFEE TO KILL ALL 33
Intoxicated Inmate of Salem, N. J., Almhouse Charged With Attempted Murder—Quarreled With Cook
SALEM, N. J., Aug. 31.—Charged with putting paris green in the coffee urn in the kitchen of the Salem County Almhouse because the cook would not serve him supper ahead of the other inmates, Charles Yerkis, a 56-year-old inmate, is being held in the county jail here on a complaint of attempted murder. The poison was discovered just in time to prevent the poisoning of thirty-three inmates. Yerkis, according to the police of Woodstown and the authorities at the almhouse, appeared at the door of the kitchen Friday night intoxicated and demanded that Mary Shorter, an inmate cook, set a meal before him at once. She rebuked him rather forcefully and he slipped away.
Hurryting to the barn where the paris green was stored for use in a spraying mixture, according to the police, Yerkis took two large handfuls and ran to the kitchen. While the cook was out of the kitchen for a moment, the police said, Yerkis dumped the poison into the coffee urn.
The 33 other inmates, men and women, were seated at the supper table ready for their food and coffee, which was about to be drawn, when the stewardess, Mrs. James Newell, white, saw traces of the paris green, on the outside of the urn. She emptied the urn and found most of the poison in the strainer. The authorities at the almshouse said that there was enough poison in the coffee to kill any one who tasted it.
The investigation which started immediately resulted, according to the police, in the discovery of paris green on Yerkis' coat and hands. Constable Pencock was called from Woodstown and Yerkis was taken there and held in $1,000 bail on the attempted murder charge and remanded to the county jail.
Yerkis was said to have made a partial confession, but to have insisted that he did not mean to harm anyone.
Hearing of. Hudspeth Postponed Until Sept. 8

Bootblacks,
CHAUTAUQUA. N. Y., Aug. 31.
—Channing H. Tobias, senior secretary of the Colored Work Department of the National Y. M. C. A., delivered an address here before more than a thousand persons in the historic amphitheatre of Chauquaiu Institution on the subject "The Basis for a Forward Movement in Race Relationships." He declared that the first essential to proper interracial understanding was an open mind and deplored the existence of organizations that insisted upon a closed mind on any public issue. The speaker also urged his white hearers that they become informed concerning the worthwhile achievements of Negroes. In this connection he said: "You cannot know the Negro by talking with your housemaid or bootblack. You can only know him by communing in person or through the written word with those who are capable of revealing the soul of their people. In order to ac-

complish this you must visit Negro homes and public institutions and become acquainted with Negro newspapers and magazines. As you begin to know the Negro in this way you will think of him less as a problem and more as a national asset."
The climax of the speaker's address was an appeal for a single standard of personality in American life, in which he reminded the audience that if a man is discriminated against because he is ignorant or poor he could overcome the handicap by acquiring learning and wealth, but if he is discriminated against because of color the discrimination is based upon something which the man is powerless to remove and which if he is at all self-respecting he would not remove if he could.
Following the address an hour was spent by the speaker in answering questions which members of the audience were led to ask.
Because of his affection for domestic animals, Magistrate Glazmayer in the Morrisonia Court dismissed a charge against little Frankle Fields, 10, 410 East 156th street, Friday, for having his dog unmuzzled and gave him $1 to buy the dog's license.

N. ORLEANS COMPTROLLER PLEADS NOT GUILTY IN RUM INDICTMENT AND IS HELD IN $5,000 BAIL
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 31.—Walter L. Cohen, Comptroller of United States Customs for the New Orleans District, has been indicted by the Federal Grand Jury, with thirty-three white persons, including Dr. L. Meraus, white, Sheriff of St. Bernard Parish, on charges of conspiring to violate the National Prohibition Act. A plan to put a gigantic rum business into operation was on foot, it is charged.
President Coolidge to Get Full Report
WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.—President Coolidge will receive a full report on the case of Walter L. Cohen, Collector of Customs at New Orleans, indicted there on a charge of conspiracy to violate the prohibition laws, it was indicated Saturday by Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Andrews, in charge of dry law enforcement. It was explained that Mr. Cohen held office under Presidential appointment and Mr. Coolidge would have to begin any action which the Government may take. Mr. Andrews said that he had sent additional agents of the special service of the Customs Division to New Orleans with orders to make an immediate report on the Cohen case by telegraph. He expects the report within the next three or four days. Menunwhile, he added, Comptroller Cohen has not been suspended, as the Treasury has no knowledge of the facts. Upon receipt of the report, Mr. Andrews said he would make recommendations to the President in connection with the retention of Mr. Cohen as Collector. Considerable mystery is thrown about developments in New Orleans by officials here, but their attitude seems to be that "something is going to break loose."
Another 8th Regiment Victim Is Near Death
ROCKFORD, Ill. Aug. 31.—Military inquiry into the trench mortar explosion which killed eight members of Howitzer Company, 8th Infantry regiment of Chicago, until wounded 12 others, one a boy mascot, is still in progress at Camp Grant. No report has been made to General Foreman. Civil investigation by Coroner Fred Olsen of Winnebago County has been postponed till the military board reports.
The board is expected to call two who witnessed the explosion. Their names were submitted by Colonel Charles Nunan, ordnance officer of the division, and their story is expected to prove or disprove statements that the trench mortar shell had been tampered with.
Private James L. Cox, 3517 Gills avenue, one of those injured, is reported dying.
Pretending to be a police reserve officer. Moses Dickson. 268 West 144th street, claimed the right to possess a badge, revolves and blackjack, but Magistrate Levine. In the Washington H this Court disputed the authority of TM the
arranged, all pleaded guilty and gave ball.
The indictment specifies a single instance in which it is charged that Cohen, Sheriff Meraux and the 32 others conspired to transport 4,250 cases of liquor from Havana, Cuba, to New Orleans between June 1 and August 10.
Cohen is involved by allegations he was consulted by heads of the rum-running conspiracy on the movements of customs craft; that he advised when and how it would be "safe" to transport liquor from the Cuban capital into the United States.
That the principals involved believed they were buying "protection" for their traffic is indicated by a charge that $10,000 was paid to Patrick Needham, white, a Prohibition agent, with the understanding it was to be turned over to O. D. Jackson, also white. Federal Prohibition Director for Louisiana.
This money, officials said, was collected by Needham, who was operating under instruction to accept such payments, and is being held as evidence.
Mr. Cohen has been a figure in Louisiana Republican politics for more than 30 years, and became nationally known in November, 1922, when President Harding appointed him Comptroller of Customs of New Orleans over the protests of the Louisiana Senators. Although the Senate refused to confirm the appointment, Cohen was given a recess appointment. When President Coolidge took office he also appolated Cohen, giving him a recess appointment when the Senate rejected him. The Senate reconsidered and confirmed Cohen March 17, 1924.
The fight against Cohen was reopened last October, when a suit to remove him was brought in Federal Court on the ground that the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution never had been properly ratified and that Cohen, therefore, was not a citizen.
When told of his indictment, Mr. Cohen, who was out of the city at the time, seemed greatly surprised. He returned to the city immediately, pleaded not guilty, and gave ball

ELKS TAKE RICHMOND BY STORM DURING MEET
J. Finley Wilson Re-elected Grand Exalted Ruler— 30,000 Delegates Parade Behind 30 Bands
RICHMOND, Va., Aug. 31. As predicted last week, the supposed opposition to the re-election of J. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler of Negro Elks of the World, did not materialize, and the Washington editor was re-elected by a large majority. George E. Bates of Newark was re-elected Grand Secretary and Laura E. Williams of New York City re-elected Grand Daughter Ruler and Emma V. Kelley secretary.
The public functions of the convention were covered in a blaze of glory. Never before had a Southern city witnessed as large a convention, white or colored. It was estimated that 100,000 visitors and delegates attended.
The longest column of marchers ever seen upon the streets of this city—a line nearly five miles in length and requiring an hour and a half to pass a given polist Tuesday paraded to the plaudits of both white and colored Richmond. It was the principal public event of the convention.
Throughout the seemingly interminable line fluttered the American flag, not only the regulation colors which headed almost every company in the column, but great emblems carried by squads and in numberable flags in miniature waved by the legions of gaily uniformed Elks—men and women.
Never has Richmond seen a blue more colorful, never has there been a parade so liberally equipped with music, never was there a blither spirit than this extraordinary and mammoth event revealed. Marbling in rhythmic step to the abundant music furnished at frequent intervals by nearly forty bands, the multitude of colored Elks appeared almost marital in their order and in the execution of commands. Of particular note in this respect were the drill teams of the various lodges represented—lodges from New York, from Chicago, from every large city of the East and from many of the West, even from far away Havann. The Elks were applauded generously along the length of Monument Avenue and it was applause well merited. The parade was genuinely a memorable spectacle.
At the Intersection of Addison Street with Monument Avenue Governor E. Lee Trinkle and Mayor J. Fulmer Bright, with member of the Governor's staff and many State and city officials formally reviewed the colossal line as it passed on its way to the State Ground. It was before the reviewing stand
that the parade reached its peak of brilliance, and the band of each unit as it marched in review crashed out its melody in brisk, buoyant tempo. And it was here that the drill teams executed several of their more intricate movements. Not only was Richmond interested in the parade; it was absorbed.
Between 25,000 and 30,000 were in the line of march. The business of Richmond was virtually suspended during the entire afternoon and the city, excepting along the line of march, had rather an appearance of desolation so great was the crowd that viewed the affair.
The Grand Lodge met Wednesday.
The concert of the Mi-Tee Monarch Bank, New York's own, was heard by as many people as could crowd into New Leader Square.
The annual band contest was won by the Monarch Band, the Philadelphia band taking second place. Cleveland, O., was selected as the next convention city.
Famous Band Serenades U. S. Labor Secretaries
WASHINGTON. — The Monarch Band of New York City, returning from Richmond, Va., where they had played for the Elks, stopped off in this city long enough to pay their respects to the U. S. Department of Labor, presided over by Hon. James J. Davis, the labor member of the Coolidge Cabinet. The band, which was in fine fettle, faultlessly rendered "William Tell," which was followed by "Zampa" and a spirited popular melody. The Secretarial staff commended Director Lieut. Fred W. Slipson and his men for their spendid musical poise and interpretation.
Held as Robber of Insurance Agents
Charged with operating a gang that holds up insurance agents in the hallways of apartment buildings, William Patterson, 28. 228 West 52th street, was hold without hall when he was arraigned before Magistrate Levine in the Washington Helghts Court Thursday. The arrest of Patterson was caused by Paul Wittke, white, an insurance collector, 56 Lee avenue, Brooklyn, who said he was robbed of $9 in the hallway of the house at 26 West 135th street. He says the prisoner, holding his hand in his pocket, to give the impression he had a revolver, forced him to hold his hands above his hand while he went through his clothing and took the money.
Patterson then commanded Wittke to go up the stairs to the roof, said the victim, but when he refused the accused went up himself. Wittke ran to the street and waited in a doorway opposite until he saw Patterson come out of the adjoining building. Wittke started after him and the man broke into a run. Policeman Feudner of the 125th street police station joined in the chase and caught the fictive. The prisoner's record showed a previous arrest for pickling pockets.
Feribee Accused of Stabbing John Douglas.
Accused of stabbing John Douglas, 3s West 123d street, following an argument at 135th street and Fifth avenue, Julius Feribee, 133 Edgerson bove, was held in $1,900 bail for further hearing when he was arraigned before Magistrate Levine in the Heights Court, Thursday morning.

Reserve Cop Held on Assault Charge
Reserve Cop Held on Assault Charge
Arrested in Heights Court When He Appeared Against Victim
Victor Hamilton, 2568 Seventh avenue, a reserve police officer of the 135th Street Police Station, was arraigned in the Washington Heights Court on a charge of felonious assault when he appeared before Magistrate Max Levine as a complainant against John Faulks, 2412 Seventh avenue, on a charge of disorderly conduct. The police reserve was severely rebuked by the court for carrying a revolver when off duty and without uniform.
Faulkens had been confined to bed at the Harlem Hospital since July as a result of a bullet wound in his right leg, said to have been inflicted by Hamilton. On the night of July 19, according to Detective Stapleton of the 135th Street Police Station, an argument started in a restaurant at 2987 Seventh avenue, in which Faulkens participated. Hamilton disliked Crowd and Faulkens walked to his home, a short distance away. He started up the stairs when he was stopped by Hamilton and informed he was under arrest. Faulkens said he would not go to the police station and intended to go to his apartment.
Hamilton is alleged to have then fired his revolver, wounding Faulkus. Hamilton took his prisoner to the West 135th Street Station, where he charged him with disorderly conduct. A policeman, noticing blood coming from Faulkus' leg, notified the lieutenant. Investigation revealed that the man had been shot. He remained in Harlem Hospital 32 days before his condition permitted him to leave.

Suspecting something, she went to a handbag where she kept her money and found $115 missing, she said. Mrs. Rodesky accused the boy, who protested his innocence, she then called Policeman Fry of the West 123d street station.
Hoy still insisted he had not taken the $115, but Fry found the money hidden in the boy's shoe, it is alleged.

Three Remarkable
Paroled Woman Freed of Theft
Accused of Taking $105 From "First National Bank"
In dismissing a charge of grand larceny preferred by Mrs. V. Parlee, whose address is withheld, against Sade Atkins, 58 W. W. 140th St. Monday morning, Magistrate Brodsky in the Heights Court held that despite the fact that the defendant has a police record and is at present on parole from the state penitentiary, her testimony had the same value as that of the complainant.
The Atkins woman was charged with visiting Mrs. V. Parlee on the morning of July 30 in reference to a position out of town that Mrs. Parlee had previously been offered. After the two women had talked in the bedroom for several minutes, Mrs. Parlee went to her bathroom. Five minutes later Mrs. Atkins knocked on the bathroom door, she says, and told her she was going and intended to take the position out of town at once.
When Mrs. Parlee returned to her bedroom, she found a stocking in which she had kept $105 had been emptied. Two weeks after the money had disappeared, the Atkins woman was arrested.
Given Sixty Days for Theft of $60
Sixty days in the county jail for stealing $60 was the sentence imposed upon Cornellus Clayton, Janitor, 377 St. John avenue, Bronx, by Judge Gilbert Baker in the Bronx County Court, Fridley morning. Clayton was arrested by a detective from the Highbridge station about a month ago on the complaint of Morris Goldstein, 881 St. John avenue, who charged him with taking $60 in cash from a table in his apartment. The janitor confessed and returned the money, Assistant District Attorney De Luca claimed.

The State of Politics Before the Primaries
The State of Politics Before the Primaries
By EDGAR M. GREY
As we face the approaching primaries, both in the Republican and Democratic parties, the smell of powder and smoke is strong, for both parties are facing the greatest fight in their history.
For the nomination for Mayor the fight is particularly bitter. James Walker has been designated to wrest the nomination from Mayor John F. Hylan by the three spokesmen of Tannmany Hall. These men claim to have the interest of the city at heart. On the other hand, Mr. Hylan was designated by the two most fighting leaders in the city democracy. Both Hylan and Walker are backed by two powerful men. Walker is sponsored by Alfred E. Smith, the most "popular Democrat in the State," while Hylan is propped up by a vigorous and fighting newspaper owner. Both sides claim honesty and public service.
The issues as espoused by each side seem simple enough. Hylan persists in charging that the "traction interest" has taken a stranglehold upon the transit lines of the great city, with the avowed desire to raise the fare. He argues that Tammany Hall has entered into consort with the traction interests to raise the fares in the greater city. He points with pride to his erection of schools, bath-houses and the like for the voters' use and convenience, and proclaims that if he is beaten at the primaries the "traction crowd" will control the city.
On the other hand, Walker claims that he is also for a five-cent fare, the building of more subways and public utilities. He charges that Hylan has deliberately obstructed the building of more subways and that there are more children attending school on part time now than eight years ago. He accuses Mayor Hylan of favoritism in the administration of city government and points out that the various departments under Mayor Hylan's administration have degenerated into crime and corruption. We are to be the judges of these charges and countercharges.
On the Republican side for the office of Mayor, Mr. Waterman has been designated by the party. Mr. Lyons, our one-time leader in the 19th election district, is opposing him. Mr. Bennett says that he also will run if the party does not withdraw the name of Mr. Waterman.
What are the issues upon the Republican side of the fence? Waterman says that he has experience, as is shown by the efficient way in which he has managed the fountain pen company which bears his name. He also claims that he is in favor of a five-cent fare; he would erect more subways and schools, and give the people of New York a "good, clean city government."
Mr. Lyons insists that the Republican machine politicians picked an unknown and untried man to beat the Democratic nominee, who has no chance of winning, and charges the Republican bosses with ignoring his name in their selection. He points to his long record of public service, from the Board of Aldermen to the office of Secretary of State of New York. He insists that he is the strongest Republican and best party vote-getter in the city.
Locally, in Harlem, the fight has not abated, for, with the exception of the candidates for the Assembly and the Board of Aldermen in the 19th district, there is war all around. In the 21st district, which runs from the north side of 136th street to the south side of 145th street, the Democrats have designated a white man for the Assembly, a Mr. Grossman, and Mr. Henri Shields for the Board of Aldermen. This has caused a fight. Mr. Smith, the present Alderman, has filed his petitions and entered the race for Alderman in the Democratic primaries. On the Republican side the party designated Mr. Theodore B. Smith as its designée for Alderman. Mr. George W. Harris has entered his name in opposition, and there is the fight. Mr. Lindsay Alston, who had signed petitions for the same office, was denied a place on the ticket because of improper signatures appearing on his petition.
The flight between "Teddy" Smith and Harris is interesting because Mr. Harris once held the office and claims to be the "champlon of Negroes", while Mr. Smith is well known in fraternal circles and is sponsored by Mr. John C. Hawkins, the recognized "Boss" Tweed of the 21st district.
It is lamentable that the Republican Negro politicians will not bury the hatchet and give the Negro Republicans of the district honest leadership. The patience of the voters is sorely tried. Each faction, and there are three such in the Republican side of the 21st district, is swearing vengeance upon the other, and the best they can do is to tell us they hate each other, and to present the names of half-mad or half-educated men to the voters for their-approval. The time must soon come when the whole crowd must be thrown out and their places filled with men and women who are not drunk with the froth of their own importance, and who will find time enough to give us candidates who have taken the time to cure their madness and learn the alphabet right.
The party has used good judgment in presenting the name of Pope B. Billups once more for our votes. Mr. Billups is intelligent, fearless and attentive. All in all.

Mistake to Abolish Commerce School
Graduate of Howard Questions Wisdom of Columbia Professor
"The recent ruling of the president and the trustee board of Howard University in which the School of Commerce and Finance was abolished from the university is an economic tragedy and a handicap to the development of the Negro life in this country." This is a statement made by William K. Bell, a graduate from the business school and at present of the firm of Bell & Delany Haberdashery, Inc., New York City, in an open letter to the Board of Trustees.
"One of the most vital things that faces the Negro today is his economic welfare. There are not enough well trained men to manage adequately the business that has been developed within the Negro race. Business is a science, and unless there are well trained men there is no hope to retain the business that has been developed, nor can there be any hope for a future development along economic lines. If the Negro race is to grow stronger it means that our economic life must be made stronger and bigger from every angle," he declared.
"It seems a little queer as to how Dr. Robert J. Leonard of Columbia University, who made the educational survey of Howard, could make a recommendation to merge the School of Commerce and Finance with the School of Liberal Arts, which eventually means death in face of its growing importance. "I am not able to question Dr. Leonard's expert ability on educational surveys, but it does seem that he might not have acted too harshly with a department whose present and future spells success," Mr. Bell stated.
AUTO KILLERS MAY FACE EXECUTION IN WASHINGTON
Justice McCoy's Ruling Permits First Degree Murder Indictments Pair Held in Second Degree
WASHINGTON, D. C.
Aug. 31.—The electric chair may await death car drivers in Washington in the future as a result of Chief Justice McCoy's decision late Thursday upholding the indictments of Clifton Young and Estelle Robinson on every count of a second degree murder for running into and killing Sister Cephas of Providence Hospital last month.
In overruling the demurrer and motion to quash in the case of the two on the ground that they could not be indicted for second-degree murder because their automobile unintentionally killed the nun, Chief Justice McCoy set a precedent here that makes it possible for the district attorney to prosecute death-car drivers not only for second-degree murder but for first-degree murder as well.
"Murder is murder, whether it is done by a pistol, a knife or an automobile." declared Assistant District Attorney James J. O'Leary, who defended the district's indictment. "And, so far as I have anything to do with it, drivers of automobiles who are guilty of murder will be indicted and prosecuted for murder, and not permitted to escape with a light penalty."
Young and the Robinson woman were speeding through the streets of southeast Washington at 60 miles an hour, trying to elude pro-

ing in another car, when the fatal accident to Sister Cephas occurred. The nun was en route from Providence Hospital to obtain marketing for poor families' when the bootleggers' car crashed into one occupied by Sister Cephas, another nun and a chauffeur.
Sister Cophas was instantly killed and both other occupants were injured.
NASHVILLE, Teen., Aug. 31. When the seven graduates who received their diplomas from Fisk University last Friday morning listened to the words of Dr. Craig Roman, who delivered the address, they could not refrain from taking stock of the past four years of their school experience; and as they looked into the uncertainties of the future they must have had the same peculiar sensations, high hopes, ambitions, and ideals so common among all college graduates. The subject of the address was "The Wheat and the Tares," and the speaker, in his own peculiar and individual manner, brought a message full of wisdom and inspiration.
The Summer school graduation exercises at Flisk are characterized by their simplicity and lack of formality, the caps and gowns worn by the graduates being the main features. resembling commencement exercises.
Charles Beaver, 29, 130 W. 144th street, was held in $5,000 ball for further examination on a charge of violating the Suillvan Law, when he was arraigned in the Heights Court Saturday morning.

According to detectives attached to the Narcotic Squad who were passing in an automobile at the time, the man pointed the weapon towards them.

Durtug the week of pp es
FOUR
hibitions wero keen and spirited,
land some upsets were noted, chief
among them being the -vietory 02
Dr. L, Downing of Virginia over
Russell Smith of Chicago and the
victory of Misy A. Ballard. over
Miss ©. Washington, both of Phila-
delphia, Miss Washington having
won the Baltimore and New York
State open, was the favorite for the
national honors.
The real rensation was. however,
caused by the dashing playing of
Ted Thompson of Washington.
Who on successive days defeated
(wo of the greatest players of the
(ace; frst he eliminated former
jNatlonal Champlon Edger Brown,
who was picked to win the cham
pionship, in tive bard sets, with as
brilliant an exbibition as was ever
seen in Negro tennis, the scores be-
ing 6—4, 6—8, §—1, +—8, 6—0. The
next day he won the championship
by defeating Eyre Saltch ot New
York, who hal himzelf, by brililant
playing, defeated National Cham-
‘ion Talley Holmes at 10—8, i—3,
.t—4, and earned the right to con:
xest the champlonship with Thomp-
son,
Thompson completely outplayed
both Brown and Saltch, ‘the fornier
master of the modern forearm
drive and the latter one of the best
of the slice. and chop-stroke exec
Uionists, The new champion is
himself a slice and chop-stroke ar.
ist, but varies with u drive now
and aguin and. is deadly with his

Miss Lultt Ballard had an_ easy
time in winning over Miss 1. Chau
nels, the national champion, at
S—1, 63. Miss Channels has not
chown, anything near her form ef
two years ago, and has fallen prey
to Miss Washington of Phiadeiphia
twice this season: this, however,
does not take away from Miss Bal
lard's fine showing. Pnired with
Miss L. Hines of North Carolina,
Miss Channels also lost the wo:
men's doubles championship to
Miss L. Ba‘lard and Miss O. Wash-
ington. both of Philadelphia, at s—

The Hilldale Club, colored outfit from Darby, Pa., out-
pointed the Bushwicks in a brace of thrillers at Dexter Park
Sunday afternoon, winning the early struggle by 4 to 3, and
the nightcap by 8 to 6. The wearers of the peppermint-
striped hose have lost their last four’ games, dropping a
doubleheader to the Cuban Stars, another colored aggrega-
tion, a week ago. Max Rosner and Nat Strong will continue
to book colored teams, however, as their hirelings, unlike
Jack Dempsey, do not believe in drawing the color line.

Cuban Star Loses on Foul After Knockout of Filipino at C. S. C.
Orlando Also Successful in His Engagement With Carl Dietz, Who Was Knocked Out Early in the First Round of the Scheduled Ten-Round Bout
Young Dencio of the Philippines was the winner over Black Bill of Cuba on a foul in the seventh round of the main ten session contest at the Commonwealth S. C. last Saturday night, the bout ending after 2.31 seconds of fighting. Black Bill, after having the better of the going for almost the entire distance, landed a left and a right that out the Filipino out.
Dencio dropped to the floor in pain, but Referee Patsey Haley allowed the count of ten to be reached by the timekeeper before awarding the fight to the fallen man on a foul. Dr. Perry Lichtenstein, club physician, who examined Dencio after the bout, reported that he could find no traces of a low blow. However, the decision of the referee is final, so that the contest will go on the books as a victory for Dencio. Black Bill weighed 109 pounds and his rival joined the beam at 105%.
The semi-final ten-rounder was very short and to the point. Lew McFarland, who was originally slated to appear against Cilian Orlaido, Cuban lightweight, failed to show up, and Carl Dietz, of Jamestown, was offered as a sacrifice. Carl lasted just one minute and 29 seconds of the first round, which isn't so bad for him. A right to the stomach did all the damage. Oiano weighed 133 pounds, seven less than his victim. Adair Beats Reilly
They dug Barney Adair out of the past and put him in with Sator Mike Reilly, of the Bronx, in the first ten and the old timer handed the local youth a pretty trimming. Barney knew entirely too much for the persistent scaffar, and laced him with a leaf that caused a number of Mike's features to change round a bit.
Reilly, who was fighting his second ten round battle of his career, made a creditable showing in spite of the whipping that he took. He kept hurling in for more, and nothing seemed to phase him. Adair easily worked himself out of a few corners that the sailor managed to push him into. The six rounder was a one-sidedair from start to finish, with Tommy Jones, 125 pounds, of Atlanta, all but knocking Tommy Tuman, of Philadelphia, out. Jones slammed his rival with a wicked inside right that had him in dire straits in the third and sixth rounds, but the Quaker City entry managed to last the contest out. Bill Fischer, 165, of Harlem, slammed Frank Amolsky, 186, of Jersey City, to a fierce well, but could not bring him down in the four-round curtain raiser.
Frisco McGale and Buller Heading Bill This Week
Matchmaker Jess McMahon of the Commonwealth Sport Club has arranged another set of bouts for his home of swat that should again bring the faithful out early to secure seats of vantage before Peter Dunny stops in to make his introductions.
This Saturday night 'Frisco McGale will go in against George Loeane, while Tommy Ryan will crawl through the ropes to meet Anselm Pell. These bouts alone should hold out a promise of feathers to Evan the Commonwealth this weekend, but the card just bristles with other good offerings.
Joe Cannamare, that splendid youngster recently graduating from the ranks of the amateurs, will face Johnny Cullen in the six-rounder, with Joe Ferney blind to start the double hostilities with Harry McCarthy.

Saturday Night Crowds at Renaissance Casino Point to Another Big Season
Crack Basketball Team Will Get Into Action Early This Year on Account of Demands Made on Manager If such large crowds can turn out every Saturday night during the summer to the regular assemblies staged by the men behind the famous Renaissance basketball team, then it is fair to assume that the coming season is bound to be a success from every standpoint.
Already letters are flowing in to Manager "Bob" Douglas from some of the country's leading basketball teams seeking matches with his peerless five, and while "Bob" would rather devote all his time with his associates in continuing to see that the crowds at the Casino are kept in the best of spirits (no pun, this), the genial manager has been forced to hearken unto the call of the country. Between dances, for which the best music is offered by Andrade and his musicians, the "Smilfin One" found enough time to stare that he is indeed gratified at the continued patronage from so many people during the summer, the answer to which is that he will bend every effort to give the brand of entertainment along basketball lines which had so much to do in winning for the men behind the venture such a splendid following winter and summer.
The coming Saturday night will usher in the first big ball dance at the Renaissance Casino, this special affair being in the nature of a general good time for everybody in lieu of a Labor Day affair. The prices will remain the same and Messrs. King, Mercer, Sibley and Douglas will be on the job from early evening.
Billiard Notes
By OLD IVORY
Well, the Poor Fishes are retiring to 'Lill old New York, some well healed, others broke, but wiser. Rack 'em up. "Time on," is all they have to say.
Shakey and Bruce, old relics of "My Partner," spent a pleasant Summer around the Emporium exchanging ideas and laying plans for a brisk season of billards. Shakey expects to break into big time pocket billards if he can secure a good manager with long green.
Well, Jack blew out on the baseball score and sporting bulletin board after the Pirates came to town and gave the Glants Hail Columbia. We miss you, Jack, but the returns are posted just the same.
When Manager Huggins hung that $5,000 fine on Babe Ruth along with a suspension it was a home run hit, all the way back to 'Lil Old New York, and is recorded as a good hit, bringing to mind that old adage, "He who would rule must learn to obey."
Actor Champion Heavyweight Jack Dempsey is just about as Jess Willard was when he received the polite courtesy message from Jack Johnson just before their fight, which was "My compliments, Mr. Willard, may the best man win." It was a good shot, one ball in the side.
It is said that "Foots" gets inside information on all sporting events, which accounts for his regularity as a Bank Roll man.

Famous "FourHorsemen
19
These Popular Boys Will Again Make Merry at Manhattan Casino the Coming Monday Night, When They Ride Forth to Entertain the Populace Assisted by I. Rosamond Johnson.
Harlem's "Four Horsemen" Will Again Ride Forth to Entertain at Manhattan
Popular Riders Will Come Forth to the Strains From J. Rosamond Johnson's Troubadour Band in Extravaganza
The popular "Four Horsemen of Harlem" will again ride forth to entertain their friends on next Monday night (Labor Day night) at Manhattan Casino, and this time we are promised a musical extravaganza, the music being furnished by J. Rosamond Johnson and his Troubadour Band.
J. Rosamond needs no introduction at our hands at this time. He has been making good for years on the Keith Circuit and, when his band music became popular, he stepped right into line with some thing out of the ordinary.
On the above occasion a special program will be arranged, and it is safe to predict that it will be of a kind unequalled at affairs of this nature. The boys are making extensive preparations to entertain one of the largest holiday gatherings that ever turned out to help them make a night of it.
We have it on the best authority that no stone will be left unturned in the effort to give the people a big surprise when the doors of the popular Casino are thrown open. We believe that this will be the first time that Mr. Johnson's hand will be appearing at one of the casinos, and this alone should do its share in bringing out an unusually large number of people.
Sports Again Victorious
Another victory can be added to the list of the New York Sports, who defeated the City Island Comets 6 to 4 last week. The game was played with as much speed as could be expected under the conditions, the wind blowing rapidly, which made it difficult for teams to catch fly balls.
In the eighth inning Martin got on second on Canton's secrecy. Lindsay got to first on a fly ball. Choice: Harrigan struck filling the Griffith pitch, forcing the North Park hitting a double with three shorthand, scoring three runs. Frenchs whipped out.
Much credit cannot be denied the Sports' pitcher, Steinberg.

Cubs Win Hard Game
CENTRAL PARK, Aug. 30.—The Columbia Cubs won the hardest game they have had to play this season from the Coulton's B, B, C (white) today. It was a game in which errors seemed to be the only way either side could score. The fielding of both clubs was good, but the fielding of Robert Bourke of the Cubs was one of the features of the game, his judgment of long fies was errorless. The pitching of both clubs was marvelous, developing into a duel. both sides using two pitchers. (Lula) Monsanta winning for the Cubs.

Professor Enters Regular Fall Season Saturday
Prof. Charles H. Anderson enters his regular fall and winter season of Saturday night dances at the Elks' Auditorium the coming Saturday night. While the summer months did not bring with them the large number of people that formerly thronged the Anderson classes, the professor has built up a select little following that will, without the least shadow of doubt, be augmented during the coming months.
Favorable weather brought out a fine gathering last week, and the coming Saturday night should see quite a large turnout, as it will be a special occasion on which many well-known dancers will vie for the honors in special numbers.
The patience with which Prof. Anderson has gone about putting through his program for the benefit of seekers after the best along dance lines is commendable and should bring him his reward in the form of bumper houses from now on.

Lombardo, using a variety of punches to Mayrs's body and head, had Mayrs hanging on from the seventh round on. Mayrs' both eyes were puffed and cut. Three thousand fans were thunderstruck when Referee Buck Alexander announced the Baltimore battler the winner. However, the arbiter thought that Lombardo won, but the judges thought differently and overruled Alexander.

"Runnin' Wild" Revived in Second Edition at the Lafayette This Week
"Runnin' Wild" Revived in Second Edition at the Lafayette This Week
Which Recalls Days Not So Long Distant When Many in Harlem Regretted Inability of Downtown Whites to See Our Section of the Big City
Our good friend Irvin C. Miller is at the Lafayette Theatre this week and we honestly wish him all the success in the world. Among the younger generation of actors, Miller, who is blessed with a keen sense of humor, keeps to the fore, while others just barely break by when the going is hard.
We admire Irvin for his hustling ability. When Broadway expressed a desire to take us to the arms of the paleface brother via the musical comedy field, Miller landed in New York from nowhere and before the wise ones knew what he was doing he had arrived at the Town Hall in "Put and Take."
SIX
The fact that we were among those "putting" make no difference to us at this time. Time, the healer of those "illis," has mellowed the past and the fact that Jack Goldberg, who was the moving spirit behind the venture, failed to "come through" for advertising matter carried for the show leaves no sting.
The venture failed, but Irvin remained strong enough with the powers downtown to take Maceo Pinkard and return with "Liza." Of course Maceo will tell you that he took Irvin. The latter's tabs on the smaller time became legion long before Maceo arrived on Seventh Avenue. Be that as it may, Irvin came to town recently and working with the powers that be, revived "Runnin' Wild," the vehicle in which his brother Flournoy and Aubrey Lyles starred last season.
That the show in its early days was not the expected success is a foregone, conclusion, but even at the time when things were not breaking so forty nothing could induce the production to make the trip to Harlem to play the Lafayette Theatre. We remember how the Coleman Bros. used to dream of big houses when George White, so they said, told them that everything was alright with him—but.
To day the second edition of the life is running at the same Lafayette Theatre, but this after the original production went into the discard. Seekers after an evening's entertainment will doubtless find much in what is being offered to be enjoyed, but the fact remains that Miller and Lyles and those other well known stars are not today in the cast. Of course, Harlem is only being asked to see this edition at popular prices, but many will remember the time when they were willing to pay advanced prices just to welcome their own in a show which Broadway, if you believe the press reports, made much over.
The one trait that we believe has carried us a great distance is that of so deadly forgiving what at first we look upon as a grievance, and the fact that "Runnin' Wild" comes to us long after the halo has been removed will not mean much to hundreds that will turn out to witness it under the Leo Brecker instigates.
Sissie and Biake, Miller and Lyles and a few others were not "allowed" to play the Lafayette after their downtown success, but Florence Mills always seems to welcome the opportunity to come to Harlem. Oh yes, she'll return some day again, and while we admire the spirit of the management in refusing to boost the prices for her own people to see her in their own ballwick, remember that we speak of the Lafayette Theatre and many policies have been changed to meet the exigencies arising from that lack of full patronage, which comes to the Lafayette every once in a while at least.
In the meantime, those attending the theatre of which we speak in the days of Shapiro will miss Maitland Bush, brother of bank officer Bush, who, we understand, is not taking the paste boards at the door any more. Bush is an upstanding and clean young man deserving of a better fate at a time when Mr. Schifman tells us the house is doing nicely.
"Give us Lillian and Dorothy Gish in the same picture," has been the demand made by countless film patrons ever since the two girls appeared together in "Orphan of the Storm." And this request has been answered at last, with the overpopular Lillian and Dorothy doing teamwork in what has been called one of the great pictures of the year, "Romola." "Romola," which is Henry King's production of the famous novel by George Ellot, is coming to the New Douglas Theatre on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, September 6, 7 and 8. Besides the Gish sisters, the cast also includes Ronald Colman, William H. Powell, Charles Lauren, Herbert Grimwood. The entire production was filmed in Florence, Italy.

"Rarin' to Go" as Seen by Our Writer of Colorful News Movies
Who Also Speaks on a Known Problem That Has Many Virtues in the Theatrical Game
"Rarin' to Go," a sprightly musical comedy, which is now packing white theatres on the Columbia circuit, is the most convincing example we have ever seen of the white man's viewpoint of an alliance between black talent and white capital. "Rarin' to Go," with a wonderful singing and dancing chorus of colored girls who close the show with a deluge of applause following its opening by a capable series of white acts, is a striking lesson of how capital and brains can rout prejudice and certain forms of discrimination.
The capitalizing of Negro talent by white promoters is an old story. Yet, we admit, with bowed heads, that where we have capitalized our own talent too often chaos and crashes have come out of the experiment. The vivacious maidens of the "Rarin' to Go" company. If dependent entirely upon race promotion and race patronage, would frequently have to lay their talent upon the shelf and "hustle" for some sure-enough greenbacks in a more practical way, in which case the world would not know of their hidden charms and their matchless abilities. Yet, they are now playing for amusement-seekers in a solid Jim Crow area, which admits the brothren only to the gallery "heaven." The excellence of the performance draws such crowds to that "exclusive" section that segregation seems to be condoned rather than protested against, either openly or by non-acceptance. In all, "Rarin' to Go" and its counterparts exhibit a significant trend of popularity.
Negro promoters being unable in the larger sense, adequately to capitalize and portray the capabilities of their own performers, leave them free and subject to mild exploitation, at least by buck-seekers of the opposite group, who, however, it must be admitted, create helpful work and pay for our group, even though toll is exacted in the form of quass-regregation and loss of pride. The problem is at times a xenotical one; yet it has many virtues, foremost among which is the opportunity afforded to study the theatrical economy, process and language, and the some training long enough to be the lock and key upon a few almighty dollars, some talent, and some training long enough to be associate directors and dictators in the careers of our actor-folk and others who are "Rarin" to Go" up a few steps in the work-a-day world

Extricate Dobbin from his vehicular encumbrance known as the old ice wagon and let the pilgrimage start from "Elmira," a few miles outside of Philadelphia, for the venerable John T. Gibson, speaking through the medium of W. Rollo Wilson, of whom none better ever pulled a journalistic seance, has dedicated in fitting words his vast estate to members of this down-trodden race.
It is not fitting that we should here drag in comments from well-known performers, and others not so well known, that played their dates and made good at that palace of mirth hard by Philadelphia's far-famed fish markets, with their delicious odors from the finny tribe of the deep blue waters; nor would it be considered timely to question the "vision" which prompted the erection of this beautiful abode with its old world touches that sent the good Rollo into eestasies of appreciation for the benevolent "Little Napoleon" of the colored theatrical world.
For us, let us see: "Stop not by the palaces reared as show places dedicated to us with Napoleonic gestures of grandeur by those who would have us marvel at their wealth, for my brother and sister, without means, are seldom welcome inside the portals of these places with their Italian Gardens, Dutch Houses, German frankfurters, French frog's legs, etc. But to the holy shrines from whence hailed such humble souls as Booker T. Washington, Frederick Douglas, Paul Lawrence Dunbar, Phylliss Wheatley and others of their kind, make the stop as long as you desire and let us here drink in the inspiration which gave to America some of her greatest people, all members of this race to which we belong.
Let us, as we stand and gaze in rapture, recall with-expanding breast Douglas the statesman, the man whose Fourth of July speech at Rochester will go ringing down the corridors of time, carrying with it its silent rebuke at so-called leaders who, in this day far removed from the marts of slavery (Rollo spoke on the marts of the hinterland from which noble John sent representatives to secure old world treasures), dare not tell so ably the truths affecting us in their political race for personal preferment instead of for the race as a whole. Aye, does not the mind-receive a fresh bath of inspiration when it is sent to think of that monument reared to civilization known as Tuskegee? Silently now, my brothers. The shades of night encompass the world, and by a subdued light we again open the covers of "Up From Slavery" and there comes before us from the spirit world Booker, that boy who slept beneath the board sidewalks of old Virginia. "Thank God," he says, "my life on earth was not lived in vain!"
When empty palaces gratuitiously bequeathed to us have crumbled from the ravages of time, the palaces of the souls of our truly great men will continue to live to lead us on. They built no theatres to protect their other interests, nor mansions great, and in afterthought blatantly tell us how they reared their palaces of mirth "to the race." It is indeed to laugh. Sixty miles from us, as the crow flies, there's a grave enclosed by a simple iron railing on a little hillside to which the poor and the rich, statesmen, authors, actors, people from all walks of life make their pilgrimages yearly to pay homage. 'Ah. yes, this man reared no beautiful estate for us to gaze upon and grovel in the dust before all thoughts of his riches. He was no Midas of his time, but Theodore Roosevelt left a heritage to those of his blood, his race and the American people that will last as long as civilization itself. No journalist can add or take away from what he bequeathed, hence we rise to ask that the comedy be withdrawn so that he who gives of his blood, his treasure, his wealth of learning and his very life be given the true plaudits of the multitude instead of the vapid praise which we so readily give to the just and the unjust; the back line chorister and the star. There must be a line, my brothers.

A higher tribute could not have been paid Garland Anderson by the Mayor of San Francisco than the warm letter given him to present Mayor Hylan on his arrival in New York to supervise the rehearsals of his Broadway production of "Appearances," which will open Oct. 1 under the direction of Mr. Jack Hayden, who has just finished the direction of "Enchanted April" at the Morosco Theatre and who was also director of the successful "Show-Off." which enjoyed such a long run on Broadway. "Appearances" will be presented by Mr. L. W. Sagar, manager of the 44th Street Theatre. The drama is built up around hotel life and depicts the career of a colored bellboy showing his rise to playwright and, when staged, proves its theory that anyone can make of himself whatever he wills. The cast is composed of 11 white and three colored performers. The following is a copy of the letter which was a part of the official good-bye San Francisco gave Mr. Anderson when he drove across the continent with Messrs. Wilkinson, who were guests at the hotel during the time the playwright wrote the drama between bells while on duty at the switchboard. The Wilkinsons paid Mr. Anderson $15,000 for half interest in the play. The letter (copy of which is below) speaks volumes for San Francisco's appreciation for her native son. Mayor's Office.

Jackson's Decision to Settle in Washington Recalls the Late Richard Thompson
Former Billboard Writer Will Find His Work Cut Out for Him at Nation's Capital
The hospitality of many of the residents of Washington, D. C., extended to us during the time we spent on the Washington Sun, will always keep warm that little spot in our heart for the Nation's Capital, hence it is with a feeling of gratification that we see J. A. Jackson making the seat of the national government his headquarters for the future.
Jackson's work is cut out for him. While S. H. Dudley and others have done much to keep the colored performer interested in papers started at the capital, it has been a hard job to make those journals a paying proposition, and but for the printing plants run for job work standing behind them, few could last and at the same time serve the interests of the performers.
Which recalls memories of the late Richard W. Thompson who swung a trenchant pen in behalf of the girls and boys on the stage and who was truly Ambassador Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the court of the colored performer.
Thompson had no outlet in Washington for his writings. Chase was too busy keeping the sting of the Bee sharpened for those not in sympathy, with his policies, and the ever present school question always had first place in the paper which for so many years kept the "upper crust" of Washington constantly aggr. And this to the extent of sending Chase to jail and getting him a few beatings at the hands of trite Washingtonians. Ar-W-Tee, as Thompson was affectionately known to hundreds in the profession and those of us that duty called to share in his hospitality, belonged to that honored list of volunteer writers who received very little from the journals scattered all over the country for the work he did. Under these conditions, he saw only the lighter side and basked in the smiles of those who craved that empty praise which has left the majority of them in the same place good old Arte left them when he passed away.
We have differed with "Bilboard" Jackson in the past and will perhaps differ with him in the future, but of all men we believe that Jackson is the most logical to make the Washington Tribune a truly national organ with plenty of news of the colored performer.
Another Zane Grey Story At New Lincoln Theatre
Many legends are told about the Superstition Mountains of Arizona, where exterior scenes were made for Paramount's "The Light of Western Stars," a Zane Grey romance of the western cattle country.
One of these tales, as told to William K. Howard, director, is said to have originated with the Indians. It concerns long-forgotten persons who ventured into the isolated regions of the mountains and never returned. But some travelers brought back stories of ghosts who inhabited the peaks and filled the night with eerie sounds.

Richmond Remembers That "Bojangles" Lived There
And The News Leader Had Some Good Things to Say of Him During the Big Convention
(From the Richmond News Leader) Bill Robinson of the Keith-Albee vaudeville circuit, who will be one of the headliners in the Monarch Edge show at the Coliseum to light in connection with the colored Elks' convention, is a native of Richmond, and began his career as the premier, Negro buck-and-wing dancer of America under the guidance of Jake Wells, it was learned to-day.
Bill is now 47 years old, but still is going strong, and each year has new triumphs to record in his scrap book. He lives in New York, but when any one asks him where he's from he says, "Richmond, Virginia." He is a favorite on the big time circuit and is said to be the highest-paid Negro performer in vaudeville. He started to dance about thirty years ago, after graduating from a job selling peas at the Old Market to that of peddling newspapers at Seventh and Broad. He danced while he sold papers, and everyone knew him as "Snowbird." He developed an agility at that time which is still the marvel of variety entertainment.
Among the publicity stunts that has kept him constantly before the public in the larger cities and won him front-page space nearly everywhere he has performed as a backward race. He can run backwards 75 yards in 10 seconds, and has defeated some of the best sprinters in the country who raced in the nip proved style while he ran backwards.
As a child he lived for a time with Frank Ferrandini, now a large owner in Richmond.
Bold Skipper of Moonlight Ship Announces That All Is Ready
Famous Old Boat Will Again Shove Off From New Star Casino on Monday Night With Full Crew
Captain Henry Wilson returned from Richmond, Va., on Monday evening and immediately called a consultation of his officers in preparation for one of the biggest cruises of the famous Moonlight Ship.
The captain, ably assisted by his first officer, Walter Hunter, has been busy making preparations for the event which is usually looked forward to with pleasurable anticipations by a monster crowd of fun-lovers.
It will be moonlight on the water (this year when the ship sails), and the fact that she lives up to her name on this occasion should mean that every inch of her quarterdeck will carry its full quota of passengers. Labor Day night has reached a place with followers of the captain that nothing will interfere with

TUSKEGEE-HAMPTON
GETS $70,000 MORE
Headquarters of the Hampton Tuskegee Endowment Fund announced last week receipt of contributions amounting to $70,000 under a new plan called the "annuity gift". Under it, bequests which would otherwise go to the fund only after death of the donor are turned over at once, while interest of $5 to $ per cent annually is retained by the donor.
"The idea originated with the Hampton-Tuskegee Endowment Fund Committee after George Eastman had made his recent pledge of $5,000,000 conditional upon the raising before the end of the fund sought by the own institutions," says the announcement.
"The aggregate of subscriptions to the fund to date has been brought beyond $4,500,000, leaving less than $500,000 to be made up before the end of the year."

Iced Drinks in the Summer
On a warm and salty Summer day there is nothing more refreshing to the mind and to the body than an iced drink. Of course, when such drinks are being used, moderation should be practiced, because it taken in excess or too rapidly, they are liable to be injurious to the stomach. However, when taken in a sensible manner, they are refreshing and beneficial to the fatigued. In the manufacture of these drinks, care should be taken to avoid any combination that may be indigestible or hard to assimilate. The drink should be consumed in a slow and leisurely manner. The greatest danger present in the use of iced drinks is the one that involves the use of ingredients that are possibly impure or

"Why, there's a company that has a new method of selling—bearded priests they have UNDERWEAR, priests they have WRIST WATCHES—and you can have your choice of $10.00 worth of any of their goods for $1.00—here's how it works—.

contaminated in any way. This is very liable to happen if the juices that are used are allowed to stand until they become soured and unit for use, or if the milk or other ingredient used is not strictly fresh. The predisposition of milk to spoil quickly at Summer temperatures makes it oftimes necessary to use evaporated milk, which after all is just pure, fresh milk with more than half the water taken away, sterile and, therefore, always safe. For use in iceed drinks, it is ideal.
Following are several formulas used in the manufacture of iced beverages. If these formulas are followed religiously, the results will be found to be very satisfactory.
Chocolate Malted Milk.
1 cup evaporated milk
1 cup water
3 teaspoonfuls cocoa
Mix cocoa with water until syrup is obtained. Put all ingredients in Mason jar and shake thoroughly and serve with chipped ice.
15 cup fruit juice (currant or berry preferred)
Boil slowly the cinnamon, a lemon rind and orange rind in water for ten minutes. Strain and when cool add the other ingredients, once a mixture of the fruit shake well. Serve in tall glasses with chopped peppers.
Add salt to egg white and beat
to a stiff froth. Add the sugar,
the well beaten yolk of the egg and
the fruit juice and nutmeg. Fill
glasses with milk and cold water.
Sprinkle top with chopped nuts.

Near Hair is to your face what most clothes are to the rest of you. The finest clothes in the land will not hide an untidy head of hair.

Just pour a little SUAVELINE in the palm of your hand and rub into your head. There is no washing your head before you use it, and it is not harmful. SUAVELINE is guaranteed to be absolutely harmless, will not discolor the hair or injure the most tender scalp.

One ton in the basement is worth Two in the mine
That's the reason you should get your Winter's supply of coal now. It looks like another coal strike and it's hard to get coal from the mine when the miners refuse to work. The coal we have on hand won't last long after the strike starts, so we advise you to place your order now.

Age of Whiskey
This is the age of Whiskey. There is whiskey, whiskey everywhere, and many a quart to drink. I should have said hooch. What intrigues me is the inroad that hooch has made into the homes, the stomachs and the good graces of many supposed respectable and upright citizens. How are the "best citizens" fallen?
It seems that there can be no social affair worth attending unless the host or hostess passes out the word that there will be plenty of gin and whiskey. Good church members, upstanding business and professional men take their wives, sons and daughters to these gin and whiskey fests. The liquor flows, tongues are loosened, backbones wilt, heads droop, knees weaken and arms don't care whose wife they encircle. And this from our "leading citizens" all over this highly moral nation.
Perhaps the whites can afford this sort of thing. I know that Negroes cannot afford it. It is a terrible loss to them morally, financially and physically. On the economic side there is not one Negro in a thousand who can afford to lay out $25 for liquor. Morally and physically there is NO NEGRO who can do to such things. It is an awful thing when men and women who ought to know better begin to engage in these licentious revels. These men not only impair their usefulness to themselves and their families but they lessen their value to our group. And the women unfit themselves for motherhood and for the proper rearing of their children.
Of what service is the training of the schools to a man if he insists on drowning it all out in a sea of whiskey, thus wiping out his moral, financial and physical powers? And, too, a man owes it to himself and his family that he protect THEM from this sort of thing. There is many an off-color wife and daughter who learned it at home, and from her husband, or in the homes of her husband's friends.
If there is a Negro anywhere who feels that this sort of thing does him or our race any good let him cast the first stone. I'd like to get bit.
MR. RICHARD WASHBURN CHILD, who used to be ambassador to somewhere, has an article in the Saturday Evening Post for August 15 on the causes of crime in this country. He calls it "The Great American Scandal, Why We Have Crime."
The primary cause of crime in our midst, according to the erstwhile ambassador, is IMMIGRATION. Hear this new and super-heated crime chaser. "Lacking any sufficient statistical analysis of criminality in the United States, nevertheless it can be shown EASILY enough that one of the first causes of our crime is immigration." Mr. Child might just as well have said: "Lacking any sufficient information on the subject, nevertheless it can be shown easily enough that the majority of Americans favor the African empire ideas of Marcus Garvey." Most anyone who reads Mr. Child's article will wonder how an intelligent man can write four or five pages on a subject on
The treatment of applied science—"NU-LIFE"
which he lacks sufficient analysis.
Mr. Child says further that he is not talking about immigrants as a whole. He is speaking of the non-Nordic immigrant, the "hunny" roundheads of southern Europe, and not the blue-eyed, fair-haired gods and goddesses of England, Scandinavia and Germany. The south Europeans are the ones responsible for the majority of our 11,000 homicides and manslaughter cases of 1924. The azure-eyed Nordics from the north of Europe are all good, law-abiding children of the Most High. Thus intimates Brother Child in Brother Curtis' weekly Slush Post.
"I have collected from five American cities the data on 125 (mark you) persons charged with murder or manslaughter—25 random cases from each city in a specified period. The total of all white persons so charged not foreignborn or children of foreignborn is only 20. A study of total arrests for serious crimes in American cities of the character of New York, St. Louis, Detroit, Baltimore and white population, being about 75 per cent of the total, is chargeable with only 50 per cent of the arrests. You will notice that Brother Child has jumped from the matter of the proportion of crime to the proportion of arrests which, of course, is not the same thing.
Mr. Child got the data on 125 persons charged with murder or manslaughter. And yet there were 11,000 such cases for him to examine. The Negro has suffered from this same sort of investigating. Our increased death rate and our decreased birth rate have been proven by this same sort of childish figuring; this same sort of aprior reasoning; by similar blas and stupidity.
There are very few persons who know how to use the statistical method. A carpenter may have a very fine plane and yet fail to produce a smooth level surface; and when the plane is dull and the carpenter incompetent, all hope is gone. Mr. Child is an incompetent carpenter, trying to work with a tool that he does not understand. I draw this conclusion from his words.
The foreigner is very often the victim of prejudice. As a rule police don't treat foreigners with the same consideration that they do native whites. Very often some arrogant microbe sitting in judgment in a city police court helps boost the total of foreign criminality statistics. Once I saw five men arraigned for drunkenness. The first four were asked the usual meaningless questions and then discharged. The last said that he came from Russia, he was not naturalized and that he had been sent to a fined $5, with the alternative of days in jail. And yet I don't conclude from this and other instances of similar nature that the majority of foreigners are mistreated in our courts. I leave that sort of reasoning to the statistical, Mr. Child.
This sort of writing is less than BUNK. And yet Mr. Child warns us that there is more to come. He will write a book on the subject GLORY BE! PAGE THE WASTE-BASKET!

500 Enthusiastic Porters Loudly Cheer Proposed Porters' Union
A. Philip Randolph Given Tremendous Ovation Scores Apply for Membership in New Union
The greatest labor mass meeting ever held of, for and by Negro working men was staged in the spacious and beautiful auditorium of the Imperial Lodge of Elks, 160 West 129th street, New York City, on Tuesday evening. August 11, 1900, by Philip Randolph, well-known editor of The Messenger and forceful advocate of labor unionism.
Mr. Randolph told of the objects of the proposed union, the wrongs, insults and indignities inflicted upon the porters and the intelligent methods of getting justice, humane treatment and American standard working conditions and wages from the Pullman Company. W. J. Orr, special organizer of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers in New York City, assured the assembled porters that the railway unions were behind the fight and would help them in their fight. Frank Crosswalt, the forceful and eloquent executive secretary of the Trade Union Committee for Organized Negro Workers, followed him with an address that thrilled the vast audience.
Another speaker was George S. Schuyler, satist on the staffs of The Messenger and the Pittsburgh Courier, whose clever quips and jokes at the expense of the Pullman Company brought gales of laughter. Mr. Ross D. Brown, of Indianapolis and Chicago; S. C. Grain, field agent of the new union, and Roy Lankester, former secretary of the Grievance Committee of the New York district in the employee representation plan and former secretary of the local P. P. B. A., also spoke. The agencies claimed the meeting was one of the most enthusiastic ever held in the big city. A few of the company's spies and several old hat-in-hand porters were there, waiting to get information to carry back to the Pullman offices, it was said.

He received A in all of his subjects with the exception of one.
Nothwithstanding the fact that his Bachelor degree has not been conferred upon him, the social welfare institution has given him two points toward his master's degree for his meritorious work. The young scholar has also been awarded a scholarship by the institution. The director of the school in writing him a personal letter expressed keen regret that the institution was without a fellowship to offer him. The professor then commended young Blythe for scholastic achievements. His savant has taken an active part in athletics at Morehouse. He is the school's star quarterback.

Discussion of Negro Feature Historic
An entire session is to be devoted to the discussion of the Negro in business, at the meeting of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History on Sept. 9 and 10. M. S. W. Rutherford of the National Benefit Life Insurance Co. who will preside, deplores the fact that while we have learned much about the social, educational, and religious status of the race, nothing systematic has been done to present the economic achievements of the race and its possibilities for business. He says that it is all but shameful that business men have been compelled to grope their way in the dark, making the same blunders and failures as the pioneers of low ago.
Like other promoters of industry Negro business men must have information as to the status and possibilities of their own constituency. Mr. Rutherford, therefore, urges upon the Negro business world the importance of co-operation in providing for and making this the long needed survey. To emphasize the necessity for this investigation he mentions the case of the handicaps from which an insurance company recently suffered in extending its business into a certain state. If beforehand, said he, that company had had detailed information as to the number of Negroes in business, the amount of business which they were doing, the real estate they owned, the use which they made of their earnings, and the like, that company would have been in a much better position to launch its enterprise than to invade the field, finding its way the best way it could.
At a recent preliminary meeting discussing this matter, a number of Negro business men brought forward information showing what the research departments of various commercial organizations of other groups are doing. They expressed their astonishment that the Negro business organizations are doing business with such large organizations like the United States Chamber of Commerce are investigating and periodically publishing reports on insurance, agriculture, immigration, emigration, civil con-

MARYLAND FARMERS
IN CONFERENCE
WASHINGTON. — Cardinal Gibbons Institute, Ridge, Md., was the meeting place, last week, of 150 colored farmers of Maryland, who gathered from a radius of 50 miles to discuss food production and distribution. The conference was led by an expert, H. M. Rue, of Maryland University, and H. W. Watheen, County Agent, of St. Mary's County. Home gardening, poultry raising and livestock improvement were among the kindred subjects discussed, while the female delegates present assisted in special demonstrations and otherwise took a lively interest in canning and general home economics. At the close of the meeting a vigorous appeal was made by Rev. John La Farge for a permanent organization of the Maryland colored farmers for the purpose of presenting a united front in behalf of valuable state and federal benefits, such as farm loans and the like.
ro Business to cal Society Meeting
difftons, in fact, reports on business in all its ramifications. The gentlemen specifically pointed out, too, that although these treatises sometimes include the Negro, they give no specific information of special use to the Negro business man who is largely restricted to his particular group. Because he occupies a specular position he must attack his own problem in a peculiar-way. With Mr. Rutherford will join other noted men, who welcome the opportunity to take part in this survey. Mr. W. Gomez of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Co. who has already worked out some of such problems, will appear first on the program to show what such a survey should cover and how it may be worked out. Mr. W. Pearson, an educator and business man of Durham, a develoer to show him and why his business men often proceed blindly, having no experience of the experience of those who have gone before or of those who at the self-same time may be attacking the same problems, Mr. C. S. Caulding of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Co. will make his contribution to the discussion by showing the importance of this survey as expressing the new point of view in Negro business. He believes that in order to do one must know what to do, when to do, and how to do, if he is to meet the keen competition of the business men of today.
Responding to this appeal a number of business men are not only addressing the management encouraging letters urging that the survey be made. They are also planning to come to Washington to assist in working out this important problem. They say that this is one of the most significant projects ever brought before the Negroes of this country. Regarding it so, he heads a group grog carried throughout the country will give their hearty support to the effort. They insist too, that inasmuch as the survey will meet a long (elt want, it should be speedily carried out that the Negro business world may begin to profit thereby as soon as possible.

Since the lynching we have received reliable information that, not only did the mob's victim fall to confess his guilt, but that he asserted his innocence to the last; and, from conflicting accounts of the lynching and crime, we have doubt whether the assault of which the man was accused was ever committed. However, no one can pass on the innocence or guilt of the victim since the mob made it impossible legally to establish his guilt or innocence.

Negro Songs Express Art and Heart
By Catherine Gregory
PENN SCHOOL, ST. HELENA
ISLAND, S. C.
HAMPTON, Va.—So very often these days you pick up a magazine or a newspaper and you see an article on "Negro Folklore," or perhaps a comment on Negro singing. Sometimes the article is a plea to the Negroes, asking us to preserve our "spirituals" and folk tales. Then again, perhaps, some man or organization is offering a prize for the best collection of stories and songs. One of the reasons for the trained in your editorial which threatens the extension of lynch law if such organizations as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People do not stop their activities.
"I am calling the attention of the National Crime Commission and the Federal Postal Authorities to your threat."
The editorial which prompted the writing of the letter follows: 'Missouri's Lynching' 'The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, with headquarters in New York, is in a frenzied fury about the Excelsoir Springs Lynching. It denounces the ruffians and 'murders' and demands action Lynching is a bad thing. It is deplorable and cannot well be defended, yet it would be well for the Advancement Society to go more deeply into the question. With all its terrible wrath it says not a word against the Negro rap.
ist. The society would do better if it made war on rapists. As it is the impression must prevail that the society is half in sympathy with such Negroes. The Negro rapist must understand in Missouri, as well as elsewhere, that the law's delay is not for him. If he is caught in an attack on a white woman he will be lynched. That is the rule. It is bad that conditions are so. The ideal way would be to try a rapist a few days after the crime and hang him within six weeks. That's John Bull's way and it's a good way.

renewed interest in the Negro songs is that people have come to realize the beauty and the true meaning of those songs. They know that to sing these "spirituals" and to talk about them will keep their beauty and meaning alive. Negro music is typically American music. It grew out of the lives of enslaved parents. No other race in bondage has been able to express and comfort themselves in songs as have the Negroes. The Indian is fast becoming an extinct, unemotional race because he had nothing to offer in the time of trouble. The Negro who was brought from a distant shore and was planted in a terrible bondage song, yes he sang so loudly that the world had to stop and listen:
These "spirituals" express the religion of the Negro who believed implicitly in God and who did not question His being. He knew that some day God. Who sees everything as he expresses himself in this song, "Oh He sees all you do. He hears all you say. My Lord's riding all the time." would make the burdens lighter. I like this little verse that says: "For in our songs we tell our wees, Our sorrows, and our fears; They are the expression of our souls To a God Who always hears."
There is nothing comical about the Negro songs. There is a thought back of each song. The songs are full of real Christian sentiments. You may find a spiritual to fit practically every occasion. How perfectly simple Negroes expressed their sorrow in this "spiritual," "How can I pray when my heart is burdened down?" Then it is in this same "spiritual" that this beautiful prayer is offered: "Crown me, oh my Lord, when my heart is burdened down." In this "spiritual," "Steal away to Jesus," Negroes see God in Nature when they say: "My Lord calls me. He calls me by the thunder, the trumpet sounds within my soul, I n't got long to stay here." What is religion, if it is not the seeing of God in the every day things? Negroes had, too, their songs to celebrate the birth, crucifixion, and resurrection of Christ. They sang: "Mary had a Baby, sing Alleluia," "They crucified my Lord," and "The angel rolled the stone away."
During the time of hardship, it is not comforting to know that Negroes could lose themselves completely for a while and commune wholly with God? How much they唱 they sang? "Jesus is a comin'," don't you get weary, there's a great camp meetin' in the promised land."
There is also art in the songs of the Negroes as well as a great deal of heart. It has not ceased to be a wonder that music like this could be made by the Negro who knew nothing about the art of music. George Nicholas Ballanta, a native of Africa, is now engaged in intensive research work recording the music of his people in the primate world and in the museums of the world's music lovers. He spent several years in New York taking an advanced course in music in preparation for this work. He spent several weeks on St. Helena Island collecting spirituals. He collected and wrote the music to over a hundred of our island "swituals." This book of spirituals has just been published.
Marian Anderson Sings to Audience of Eight Thousand
Marlan Anderson, contralto, enjoyed a triumph at her appearance with the Philharmonic orchestra in the City College Stadium last Wednesday night, having been chosen for this honor from 300 competing singers. F.D. Perkins, critic of the New York Herald Tribune, asserts that the audience was estimated to be the third largest of the entire season of Stadium concerts. Mr. Perkins in his review of the event calls Miss Anderson's "a voice in a hundred thousand" and continues:
"A notable feature in Miss Anderson's singing was its entire naturalness; all that she had to do, apparently, was to sing, without any need of aparent effort to fill the Stadium spaces. In high and low notes, there was a full, rich quality that carried far; the singer had no more trouble, it seemed, in singing at the Stadium than in singing at Acolian Hall, but seemed more at her ease, in smoother voice, than in the Acolian Hall audition.
"A storm of applause followed the Donizetti number, very meritoriously sung, and Miss Anderson sang Woodman Terry's 'The Answer as an encore. But expressively, she seemed most at home in the three spirituals scheduled for her second appearance: Harry T. Burleigh's 'Deep River' and Honv'n' and J. Rosamond Johnson's 'Song of the Heart' in a performance characterized by what might be called expressive simplicity."
The New York Times, reviewer
paid Miss Anderson made an "excellent impression" and found her
"endowed by nature with a voice
of unusual compass" color, and
dramatic capacity."

H. A. Longworth's Work in Quessua
By W. W. REID.
Al A. Longworth, of Des Moines, Iowa, Methodist Episcopal Church in Angola, by drowning while on his honeymoon announced in a recent cable to the Board, was in charge of the farm and institute Angola, by the Methodist Episcopal one to Quessua in 1920 when a farm of ten over by the Mission to be operated demonstration farm. As a trained agrieioncering in a new field of mission serail of the school and farm work carried the result of Mr. Longworth's initiative. report to the
The Rev. Harral A. Longworth, of Des Moines, Iowa, missionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church in Angola, Africa, whose death by drowning while on his honeymoon in Sweden was announced in a recent cable to the Board of Foreign Missions, was in charge of the farm and institute operated in Quessua, Angola, by the Methodist Episcopal Church. He had gone to Quessua in 1920 when a farm of 8,900 acres was taken over by the Mission to be operated as agricultural and demonstration farm. As a trained agriculturalist he was pioneering in a new field of mission service. Practically all of the school and farm work carried on there today was the result of Mr. Longworth's intuitive.
In his most recent report to the Board of Foreign Missions he was enthusiastic about the porgress made by those to whom he was imparting agricultural knowledge.
"I am exceedingly hopeful of the future of agricultural work here at Quessua. The time has arrived for us to really make a beginning on constructive lines. The days of trying to keep boys interested in farm work at one place while they were in school two or three miles away are past. The stress of moving from the old site to the new is over. The building work is well in hand, and enough buildings are ready so that work goes ahead better than ever before. We see prospect of having within a few months some buildings orchards on the farm department has suffered for years. The school organization has been brought up to a point where we are able to have the institute boys at regular periods for agricultural work, and can begin giving them the kind of systematic training that we have been dreaming about; and the results can already be seen in their work and interest.
"The class work in agriculture last year was based almost entirely on a study of the most available means of increasing the production of crops of common consumption, under existing conditions. The one practice which seems to give most promise of a definite increase in crop yields and which is immediately available to the use of all the natives is the use of green manuring crops. As this practice is quite unknown to the average native farmer, it seemed highly important that it be taught thoroughly.
"The absorbing story of the way in which plants of the legume family, with the help of bacteria living in the nodules on their roots, can take nitrogen from the air, and store it in their roots in a form available for the use of other plants, was presented to the class. They were then taken to the field, and a dozen different leguminous plants were dug up, and their nodules examined; then they were shown fields in which leguminous crops were being plowed under, as green manures, in which the soil is the importance of nitrogen in the plant, and animal life was explained to them, so that now they are prepared to appreciate the reason for the differences that will appear this year between these fields and others adjoining that received no green manures.
"The next principle of farm practice studied was the selection of superior varieties of the various crops. Attention was called to the variety tests in progress on the mission, and special emphasis was given to the precautions necessary in securing uniform conditions for such tests, and in making an accurate comparison of results.
"Then came a study of the means available to natives of improving existing crops by breeding and selection. After explanation of the theory, the boys were allowed to harvest and weigh a number of individual ears to the row test plots of the common native corn. The remnants of the parent ears were at hand, and comparison of the yield showed differences ranging 221% to 68—the best ear producing more than three times as much as the poorest. The progeny of the best rows the plant this year, and the parent ears will be used for further breeding work. In this way we hope to produce a inferior strain of native corn, and at the same time a group of boys who will know how has done, and will be able to continue such work. Similar work was done with native cow peas (macundi), each boy selecting an extra good plant in the field, gathering the seed, and planting the seed from these selected plants in individual rows for comparison.
"Other farm practices studied in this course were better tillage, cultivation for conserving moisture, rotation of crops, use of animal manures, and use of oxen and farm machinery in cultivation. The last named was so placed in the list, because the average native cannot have cattle until after he has considerably raised his economic status—perhaps by practicing the methods previously studied.
"This is the sort of work we want to continue with our boys, and which we want to see spread to the villages, and eventually all over Angola. When mission-trained boys demonstrate the advantages of applying scientific principles on native agriculture, in their own fields and among their own people, we may be sure that our teaching will 'take.' Then will the people be able to build churches themselves, and support their own schools and send out their own missionaries.
"The need for continuing experimental work at the mission was forcibly impressed a few months ago. We had just been trying to
convince a group of native preachers, in their annual institute, the advantages of frequent, shallow cultivation to conserve moisture, when we received a letter from Washington with a reference to recent studies showing that this practice, so important in temperate climates, may do more harm than good in the tropics, at least under certain conditions. We hope always to have a number of experiments in progress here at Quessua in order that we may learn in God's own laboratory these facts that are not yet recorded in any book that man has written. We need to get this information ourselves before we can teach it to others, and we want to inculcate this spirit of investigation in the boys who come to our school."

Census of Religions
WASHINGTON—Next year the United States Government is going to take a religious census of the country. It is done every ten years, in the years that end in "6," and the object is to learn how many men and women are church members; how many ministers there are; how many children are enrolled in the Sunday school; how much property is owed to churches; how much affords a valuable check on the progress or retrogression of the various denominations and sects.
To get the desired information, the Government, through the Bureau of the Census of the Department of Commerce, sends out two questionnaires. The first calls for data on the church itself, the second concerns the minister, priest or rabbi in charge of each congregation. The results of the latest religious census, taken in 1915, were published in two volumes. The which consist of compares the ecclesiastical information which may be consulted in the larger libraries of the country. The scope and exact date of the census of religious bodies for 1926 have not yet been determined, says E. W. Koch, Acting Chief Statistician for the Population Division of the Bureau of the Census.

'Old Sol' Is a Good Baby Doctor
Old Sol is a good baby doctor, Let him have a chance at your child!
So says Dr. Martha M. Elliot, director of child hygiene of the Children's Bureau, U. S. Department of Labor, urging "more sunlight for babies."
Dr. Elliot is directing a demonstration of the control of rickets in New Haven, Conn., in which the Children's Bureau and the Pediatric Department of the Yale School of Medicine are co-operating. This demonstration has proved again the power of the sun in preventing and curing rickets.
"In the campaign for better babies and healthier children," says Dr. Elliot, "more stress must be held upon sunlight. The baby or little child who has been kept out of doors and tanned by the sun is strikingly healthy and vigorous in contrast to the pale, flabby baby or child who has been kept indoors."
"When the sun's rays are analyzed by the physicist, it is found that some of them produce visible light which can be divided by a prism into the well-known spectrum of colors—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. It is also found that beyond each end of this visible spectrum there are invisible rays; at the red end, the ultra-red rays, which produce heat; at the violet end, the ultra-violet rays and x-rays. It is these ultra-violet rays which have so powerful an effect on living matter, destroying bacteria, healing tuberculosis and rickets. When sunlight shines through window glass, it lightens the earth, but the ultra-violet rays穿透 but the ultra-violet rays penetrate beyond the glass.
"Sunbaths in the direct sunlight are the simplest method of giving the baby enough ultra-violet light. Sunbath should be when the baby is about three or four weeks old. On this day the baby's hands should be exposed to the direct sun for a few minutes. Care must be taken not to burn the skin of the skin each day will gradually can be customized to the sunlight from indoor. The first sun bath should be for 10 or 15 minutes only. Each day thereafter the exposure to the sun should be increased from three to five minutes until the baby lies directly in the sun sun bows in the morning and sun bows in the afternoon. Every few days the amount of body surface exposed should also be increased at first slowly, but as the Spring days grow warmer, more rapidly. After the face and hands have been customized to the sunlight the areas behind the head are heated at a temperature and the arms exposed, beginning with a few minutes and increasing daily. Very soon the stockings may be taken off, one at a time, for a few minutes each. Gradually the baby becomes accustomed to the sun bath and, in the middle of May or the first of June sun baths can be given to the whole body. In the heat of July and August must be taken to give the sun baths in the early morning before 10 o'clock or in the afternoon after 3 o'clock. The head should be protected when the baby is in the hot sun between 10 and 3 o'clock."

The list in its entirely ranges from absorbents of nitro-glycerine in the manufacture of dynamite to xylose, a kind of sugar. The value of the corn crop to the American farmer, the Department of Agriculture says, is greater than the value of any other crop grown in the country.

Hampton to Have Librarians' School
New Collegiate Work Will Count Toward Bachelor of Science Degree
HAMPTON Va... Aug. 31. With the approval and co-operation of the American Library Association and the General Education Board, a school for the training of colored librarians will be established this Fall at Hampton Institute. Work will begin on September 24.
The work of the "school" will be upon the collegiate level. Students will be given opportunity to qualify for the degree of Bachelor of Science. The Huntington Library, of over 50,000 volumes, will be used as the school laboratory.
The authorities of the institute feel that they are fortunate in securing as the organizer and director of the Library School Miss Florence Rising Curtis of Odgenburg, N. Y.
Miss Curtis was a student at Wells College for three years; graduated from the University of Illinois with the degree of A. B.; took her master's degree in economics and sociology at the University of Minnesota, and her professional training at the New York State Library School. After a year at the Ostherhout Free Library, Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Miss Curtis was for six years librarian and registrar at the Potsdam, N. Y., State Normal School; then for eleven years she was a teacher in the Library School of the University of Illinois, which is on a graduate basis. For three years she was vice-director of the Drexel Institute School Library Science. For a considerable period she was a retainer of the Association of American Library Schools. She has also had teaching experience in China and in the Philippine Islands.
In recent years there has been a noticeable and increasing demand in city libraries and in the libraries of educational institutions for trained colored librarians. Hampton institute is happy to be enabled to respond to this clear and important need.
E. V. Akroft, secretary of the Gold Coast Farmers' Association, and E. Tackey Otoo, also of the Gold Coast, are visiting in America in the interest of the agricultural development of West Africa. Through the Gold Coast Farmers' Association they are bringing together the farmers of West Africa into a strong organization that is doing much to help them better develop the land, and to save the resources of Africa. The organization has a membership of 12,000.

WALTER L. COHEN
IT IS RATHER UNFORTUNATE that
Walter L. Cohen, Comptrofler of Cus-
ztoms for the New Orleans District, must
defend himself against an indictment
charging conspiracy to violate the na-
tional prohibition act. Whether guilty
or innocent, a Federal indictment must
be taken more or less seriously even ii
it is true that the whole affair is a
frame-up. Federal indictments, North
or South, invariably lead to co.:viction,
which means that even if one is framed
upon a Federal charge, innocence is
more difficult to prove than in other
courts.
MR. COHEN’S nomination for Comp-
troller, like that of every other Negro
appointed to office, a little above the
ordinary run of Republican patronage
given the Negro citizen in the South,
was bitterly contested, and it was only
upon Mr. Coolidge’s insistence that his
nomination was finally confirmed. Con-
sequently, he has been surrounded by
enemies from the start; men even of his
own political faith who were only too
glad to see his removal from office
brought about, by fair or foul means.
UNDER the circumstances, it would
seem unwise for us to come to any con-
clusion as regards his guilt or inno-
cence until all the facts in the case are
presented. It is easier, though, for us
to believe that he has been “framed” by
his political enemies than to believe
that he is guilty, as charged.

Expressed by Our Contemporaries
The Monarch Band Concert
(From the Richmond News Leader.)
People begun to park their care on News Leader
Squore yesterday afternoon by 4 o'clock in order
(hat they might hear to advantuge the concert
promised by Mt-Tee Monarch Band, of Lodge No. 43
of the colored Elks. By 7 o'clock the audience began
to arrive, At §:30. the: hour of starting, those who
expected to stroll into Fourth street and stand close
to the band found themselves barred by a multitude
that filled News Leader Square from curd to curb
ané overflowed Into Franklin and, Grace street, No
throng that ever watched the world series on The
News Leader magnetic scoreboard, or listened to
the paper's loud speaker report of election returns,
or cheered the announcement of a prize ring knock:
out, was as large as that which broke off couversa-
ton and removed hats the Instant Band Leader Fred
Simpson started the nutlonal anthem.
‘And scarcely @ person in the crowd in any way
failed to appreciate the eplendor of the music that
followed. There was no Jazz. no wild ‘racing of
trombones up and down the scale, no mad roar of the
drums, no sales by adventuresome cornets, Control
did not relax in the least from opening note to the
findle. The sixty colored performers, with tbe strong
foundation of abundant bass, had faultless attack anc
release. In a program that conceded nothing to the
umateur—a program that was about as difficult aa
band music can ba made and still be effective—the
Monarchs did not for a moment lose pitch or time.
The comment of the crowd was that the band: de-
served the reputation {t enjoys for true mustctan-
ship. It 1s an honor to the American Negro. it is
so fine an organization, tn fact. that The News Lender
has prevailed on {t to give another concert on News
Leader Square tomorrow night, when a larger au-
dience can be more comfortably handled.
The crowd was interesting as ‘the band—and us
Bood an omen for the future. No crowd in Richmond
ever uncovered more promptly. or so generally when
“The Star-Spangled Banner" was played. No throng
of such proportions ever was more orderly. White
people and colored were in almost equal numibers.
Crowded as the square was, there had to be some
movement on the sidewalks, but there was no jostling
=-not even a frown or a muttered complaint, Good
temper there was and good feeling ay well. li was
Richmond's answer to those whose prejudice or
ignorance of racial relations made them vaguely ap-
prehend some untamed “trouble” during the Elks’
convention. Nobody that knew Richmond or the
vigiting order had ‘any fears or thought those of
alarmists were worth dignifying, but everybody in
News Leader Square last night must have gone
away with a new confidence that in Richmond, at
least. the races can lve harmoniously. The very
music seemed to augur more harmony!

tion and congratulation for your splendid editorial
in the last issue of your valuable paper concerning
ie recent lynching of a Negro in Excelsior Springs.
Mo.
It is indeed a pleasure in these days nf more or
less spineless Negro journalism to read those inspir-
ing words with which you closed that editorial. Your
reprint from the “Call” of the victim's story of the
case 1s a commendable piece of service to the race,
which ought to readily suggest to the many fraternal
Nesro organizations and individuals of the race in
the United States the need for a powerful journal
or news service which will girdle the world and serve
the race as the hig white newspapers serve the
enemies of the race,
It is known that the first version of that lynching
(rape?) found its way into every nook and corner
of the world, while the facts as told by Mitchell will
be known only to a few of the interested men and
women of the race and to a small group of their

‘The program covers a range of interesting topics, which
will doubtless attract large audiences of those who may
have general or specific interest in the movement.
During the past two decades a number of institutions
have arisen among Negroes for the general advancement
and improvement of the people in several distinctive fields
of endeavor. “Among these may be mentioned the Na-
tional Association for the Advancement of Colored Peo-
ple, whose province is the political and civil rights of the
race; the Urban League, which deals with social and in-
dustrial conditions in the large cities; the Association for
the Study of Negro Life and History, devoted to the
study and preservation of accurate historical knowledge
concerning the Negro during three centuries of contact

shadow of Dr. Carter G. Wood-
gon, Its ‘conception, inspira.
tion and development are due
to the’ output and outpush of
his personal genius.
Dr. Woodson by his own un-
daunted endeavor pushed his
way" up from the coal mines of
, West Virginia, through Berea
College in Kentucky, and then
through ‘Chicago “University,
winding iup with the doctorate
from Harvard. Ho gained a
wide range of teaching experi-
ence in the pubile schools of
his own state, He won appoint-
ment as teacher in the Philip-
pine sIslands through compett-
live civil service examination.
Dr. Woodson taught for a num-
ber of years in the Dunbar
High School of Washington,
and rose to the principalship
of the Armstrong Manual Tratn-
ing School.. From this. position
he was chosen as Dean of the
School of Liberal Arts of How-
ard University. ‘which he re-
aigned to reorganize the col-
lege department of the West
Virginia Collegiate Institute.
In the meantime his great
purpose was tuking shape and
direction in bis mind, -His
determined “aim was (6 turn
his historical training and
preparation to practical racial
account. His “Education of the
Negro Prior to 1861” is ‘the.oniy

Ten yeurs ago, while yet a
tencher in the public schools
of, Washington, he organized
the Association for the Study
of Negro Lite and History and
launched the "Journal of Negro
History.” . This fs a quarterly
scientific magazine which cov
ers carefully selected and ac-
curately’ worked out topics of
historival interest touching the
Negro people. There have
deen issued 40 numbers which
have found thelr way into
every important lbrary of the
. Nation and Indeed in mony Eu-
Topean libraries, where the in-
formation therein contained
will be preserved forever. The
Institution has abundantly jus-
tied its existence, and should
it wind up {ts affairs with the
tenth anniversary, Dr. Wood-
son's life nnd career would
have abundantly justified them:

shows every indication of long

hypothecated his career upon
this project. He is a bachelor
approaching 50 with a selfim-
posed buchelorhood. Lord Ba-
con says that he who has wife
and children has given hostage
to fortune. Had Dr. Woodson
entered early upon the blisaful
sea of matrimony, It would
have been {mpossible for him
to have made the requisite

‘The social importance of his:

deeds and doings of renowned

Ure field of ‘recorded action.
The ordinary activities of ordi-
nary people did not rise.to the
level of historians’ concern.
But in more recent years any
act or performance that has in-
fluenced the course of human

looked upon as bistorical art-
ists rather than as scientific
historians, Dr. Woodson is
concerned in digging out every
significant role which the
black race has played in the
great American drama. This
makes American history not
only full and comptete: but true
to the actualittes of historical
happenings.
‘There 18 a great conspiracy
of silence to Ignore the best
deeds of the Negro, and to ex-
plott his imperfections and mis-
deeds. If & Negro takes the

Feputation of the race suffers
serlously by the suppression of
its virtues and the exploita:
tion of fis faults, The treat-
ment which the Negro recetves
depends largely upon the ropu-
tation. The true historian holds
the balance true between the
good and the evil. Indeed the
true historian is not so much
concerned with the good and
evil of an act as with its effect
upon the after life of mankind.
The deeds of Judas are as full
ot ‘historical interest. and
meaning as those of John. In
the language of the tobaccon-
ist, Dr. Woodson “smokes ont
the facts.”
‘The Negro’s pride ts humtlt-
ated when he recounts the
great drama of this continent
and finds that he {s accorded
no honorable part in the great

The Wonders - of African

THE TEMPLE EL KARNAC,
"The wonder of the black
races,” says: Heeren, “is in the
immensity of thelr temples and
monuments. Surrounded by
grewt mountains, deep valleys
and far-reaching deserts, the
iden of vastness Ko entered into
thelr architecture that it bas
never been equaled.”
Very true of this is the Tem
ple El Karnue, the greatest ever
reared by man. Iwas built at
Thebes In Upper Egypt and
even in its ruins one wonders
if the people who bullt ft were
giants in their day. An avenue
more than-a mile iw length,
built.by.Queen Hatshepsut, led
to the entrance. and lined on
cach side» with - guardian
sphinxes, The temple itself
was 1.200) feet tong. 600 feet
wile and walls varying from
G0 to 125 feet high.
The Hall of Pillars, the
great wander of the temple,
was 329 (eet long and 170 feet
wide, It contained nine rows,
six in each row. the two cen:
tral rows being 60 feet high
and so Inrge in circumference
that six men with arms extend:
ed and fingers touching could
not encompass one. On the
tops of these pillars were
carved lotus flowers of granite
and welghed 30 tons each, How
were .these mighty pillars of
granite raised and how were
theye stupendous flowers placed
upon thelr tops? The secret
was lost with old Egypt.
Many were the wonders
which the black races of old

of Nordic Superiority
(Preston Newa Service.)
CHICAGO, Aug. 31,—Bishop
Edwin Holt Hughes of the Chi-
cago area of the Methodist
Episcopal Church calls the
claim of Nordi¢ superiority non-
sense.
In uddrexsing the first ses-
sion of the Central Swedish
Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church here last
Wednesday night he said:
“It is not Anglo-Saxon blood,
but the biood of Jesus Christ
that has made us what we are.
‘There is much heing said at
this time about Anglo-Saxon
Superiority. It was not so long
ago our ancestora came out of
the forests of Europe and when
they wanted a deer they did
not stop to cook it, but they
ate the raw flesh.”

UCK is something “that ain’t.”” It doeSn’t really exist
L and never will. You can carry a rabbit's foot or an
amulet, but all the charms in existence can't bring
you a tootipick’s worth. of good fortune, though you keep
them in your pocket forever.
What is called “good luck” and “bad luck” is not the
result of merely accidental causes, coming to pass casual-
ly, apparentiy without any deeper underiving origin. .\n
intelligent analysis of what occurs in life will almost al-
ways trace its source as lying in the mind — as the con-
sequence of efficiency or the lack of it and the attitude
toward life and humanity. The course of events hinges
not upon the play of chance. In all things and pervading
all occurrences the imperial mind of man is the dominant
factor.
T will explain the psychology of Iuck: As said befure,
incidents may occur that on the surface appear as if just
happening; however, if they are scrutinized understand-
ingly, it will be found they are produced by well-defined
causes that more or less reflect states of mind — certain
thoughts, desires or anticipations. When the mind thinks
a certain thing persistently and it lies within its. com-
pass, there develops g tendency to crystallize the thought
into-actuality if conditions are favorable. ‘fhe will to do.
a thing and the painstaking’ endeavor to accomplish it form
energized complexes - that’ may. outwardly ‘appear as’. op-.
portunity and-an advantageous flow of circumstance. This.
is not luck, but the working of mental law operating ‘con:
structively. and making possible what we thoughtlessly
call “(good ‘Inck.” i
We make Juck by what we think and Jong for and. fit
ouirselves. to. receive, by the intensity and. persistence with
which we pursue a coveted end,
Instead of believing in, luck. believe in yourself. But
how can you believe .in yourself unless you are equipped
to mect the demands and contingencies of life and duty?
You can't. meet competition and. resourcefulness. success-
fully unless you are able to act with facility and adapta-
bility. Don’t depend upon circumstances to further, your.
interests, but mold new and more auspicious circumstances
through the power of will, energy-and rightly directed en-
deayor. sel
‘The potentialities. of life “are many and varied, but
nothing can occur without adequate cause.
Destiny cannot be arbitrary and make a football out of
any,man unless’ he is in the football class. A weakling
can ‘do no more than work out a weakling’s lot; an igno-
rant man can-do no more than remain within the scope
of his limitations. ‘he world is rum by brains, not brawn
or mass., One. who is prepared. for the toirnament af:
fate with the panoply of education, will-power, humane
feelings and a sense of humor will fll his barns with goad

character, stendy habits and: thrifty industry will be an
impregnable defense against all the “bad luck" that igno-
