Fisk Quartet Head Victim of Heart Attack STORY IJNDER "EXTRA" CONFESSION CLEARS NAME OF DEAD MAN

The School
Bell Rings
HESE September morns are witnessing the annual event of the opening of school. More Negro children, middlers, grownups and elderly folks will cross some classroom doorsill during the 24-hour day of the 1915-1926 school period than ever before. This prophecy applies to entrants all the way from the little red school house on the hill to the great universities of the world. Just yesterday a Negro physician whom we interviewed had abandoned his practice in South Carolina and was en route to the University of Edinburgh, where he will study intricate surgery for several years. His place in South Carolina will be rapidly filled by some youthful graduate of Howard, Meharry, or some outstanding Northern university. And, as John P. Davis, the Bates College orator, returns from his European triumphs as a debater, dozens of other youth with latent talent will begin the slow course of preparation for the battle of brains a decade hence, which will doubtless unfold even a greater proportion of Negro scholars fit for world recognition.
What should the intraracial transition from ignorance to knowledge mean to the world at large and to the Negro group entity? To the former it should mean that this dark tenth content will not, cannot permanently be denied a man's place in art, science, history, music and religion, as well as in the trades and industries. A President of the United States once said of a down-trotten group: "These people have by force and ability pushed their heads and shoulders through the tough top crust; and I will not be a party to any movement to keep them down or make their day more difficult. Let them arrest."
To the Negro, the past decade's demonstrations of educational efficiency mean confidence, self-reliance, independence, and the ultimate emancipation from bigotry. They mean a greater sympathy for the weaknesses of the contra-group, and a stronger determination to help that group purge itself of the color of race hatred. The school bell is ringing for the ambitious Negro all the way from the humble trade school to the operating room where a Caesartian section is being performed. And while this harbinger of knowledge is silent for the Negro at West Point and Annapolis, the other schools are grinding out graduates who are swelling the mighty ranks whose numbers are pledged to the pleasurable duty of throwing off ballast and making Negro education. Negro life, universally acknowledged, respected and acclaimed as one of the chief cornerstones of the builders of American democracy and civilization.
Negroes and Strikes
STRIKES seldom do anyone much good, and where Negroes are in-
volved, that group usually suffers the greatest hardships of the vexatious turmoil between capital and labor This latter truth is due to the fact that Negro labor has only its head in under the tent of organized labor, and is consequently bruised both from within and from without. When the western Kentucky coal strike was declared, more than a year ago. Negro union miners, although in a mixed local, were the first to meet with difficulties and the last to emerge therefrom. When colored girls were smilingly employed, during the war by Chicago manufacturers, they were harshly dismissed the very instant white girls were available.

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 8.—John W. Work, famous as one of the celebrated Fisk Jubilee Quartet which toured the world, fell dead here, while stepping aboard a train for New York City, Monday. He was fifty-two. Death came from a heart attack, for treatment for which illness he was going to New York.
Immense in stature, and with an instinct for music peculiar to his own race, Prof. Work contributed perhaps more to the survival and advancement of the old spiritual and folk-songs than any other man of his generation.
For twenty-five years he had been connected with Fisk University, where he had reorganized the Jubilee Singers, and made famous their quartet.

Mr. and Mrs. Granville O. Paris have returned from a long touring trip. Mr. Paris, last Spring, had a breakdown and was confined to his bed for six weeks. He decided to take a much-needed rest. On July 23 he left the city, accompanied by Mrs. Paris, motorized to Atlantic City, staying there until August 15, motorizing to nearby resorts and enjoying the bathing.

FIRE ENGINE RUNS DOWN BOY,8,ON SIDEWALK
Driver Avoids Collision With Another Piece of Apparatus and Taxi, But Seriously Injures Child With Its Mother
To prevent a collision with a taxicab after the taxi driver had struck a hook and ladder truck from the West 143rd street fire station, near Eighth avenue, a fire engine from the 137th street station jumped the sidewalk and ran down little Charles Wilson, eight, 267 West 144th street, Sunday afternoon.
Just as Charles and his mother and two little brothers had crossed the street to the sidewalk at 143rd street and Seventh avenue, the hook and ladder company from 143rd street was advancing East on the street in respond to an alarm. A taxicab driver, coming from downtown, failed to abide by the signal to stop and clashed with the truck.
When a fireman from the company leaped to catch the driver who attempted to flee, the traffic became blocked with automobiles and crowds of people began to gather. The fire engine from 1877 street was speeding up Seventh avenue. The truck driver swayed the engine from one side to the other trying to steer clear of the taxcab. To prevent a collision with the taxi or another automobile in which were four passengers, the fireman swerved his truck upon the side walk. Several eye witnesses declared that the little boy attempted to run out of the way of the huge vehicle, but it was in vain. Charles within an arm's distance from his mother was almost crushed to death. At the Harlem Hospital, where he was rushed, it was learned that the youngster was in a critical condition Tuesday morning.

The sole issue which the enrolled Republicans of Harlem will be called upon to decide on Tuesday, Sept. 15, is whether the Republican Party shall select its candidates or whether Tammany Hall shall be permitted to dictate them in the Republican primaries. The regular Republican organization candidate, Frank D. Waterman, embraces all that is manly, noble and honest and is mentally fitted to make a Mayor of whom New York can justly be proud.
The propaganda spread by Lyons against Waterman is a movement inspired by Tammany Hall. Lyons' campaign manager, Jack Lewis, is a life-long Tammany man, and his other manager, Fred E. Goldsmith, is president of the Tom Williams Democratic Club of (Continued on Page 3)

RAYMOND PIERCE KILLED DAY BEFORE GIRL WAS KIDNAPPED
Son of Well-to-Do New York Lawyer Held Also for Murder of Six-Year-Old Mary Daly
That Raymond Pierce, of 119 Willowdale avenue, Montclair, went to his death as the innocent victim of a demented kidnapper, and that he had absolutely nothing to do with the kidnapping and murder of six-year-old Mary Daly last Thursday in Montclair, is proven by the confession of Harrison Noel. of 295 North Mountain avenue, Montclair, a 20-year-old white lad, who committed both crimes.
Pierce was shot through the back of the head by Noel, who had engaged the Dodge taxicab he was driving Thursday evening, but his body was not found until Friday afternoon when the woods around Montclair were being searched following the kidnapping of Mary.
An alarm was sent out for Pierce when the license number on the auto used by the kidnapper revealed that he was the alleged driver of the car.
U. S. SAILOR MURDERED AND THROWN FROM ROOF
Had Been on Shore Leave
But Few Hours Before
Death—No Clues to Perpetrators of Deed
J. E. Allen, a sailor, who
was attached to the destroyer
Raleigh, was found dead
with his body mangled and
neck slashed in the courtyard between 28 and 30 West 136th street. Sunday morning at 3 a. m.
It was learned from the commander of the ship that the ship had just anchored in the North River Saturday night and that Allen had been granted a leave of absence.
Residents of 28 W. 136th street claim that they heard sounds of a struggle on the roof, followed by the thud of a body landing seven stories below.
They notified Deputy Chief Inspector George Lieber and Detectives Stapleton and Winterhalter of the W. 135th street station, who arrived in a few minutes and found Allen's body in the Navy uniform.
No clues have been found by the police to search for the murderer.
Capt. James F. Mason, chief of detectives of Essex County, gave out Harrison Noel's confession verbally. His statement follows:
"Noel said that on Aug. 24 he was living at the Mills Hotel, in New York. He went to Francis Bannermann's store, at No. 501 Broadway, and bought a pistol, saying he wanted it to use in case any of the Overbrook Aylum officials came after him and attempted to take him back to that institution.
"He paid $9.20 for the pistol and 15 cartridges. The firm would not deliver the pistol to him at the store. Noel had it mailed to him in the name of 'Wallace Payne, Falls Road, Little Falls'.
"Four days later he went to the Post Office and secured the package. That afternoon he went out in his car and tried out the pistol, firing 15 or 16 shots.
"On Tuesday, Sept. 1, he made up his mind to kidnap a child for ransom and drove over North Mountain avenue to Montclair, he looked for a handsome residence and selected No. 136 as looking like a prosperous home."
"On Thursday he went to a drug store on Valley road in Upper Montclair, near the Montclair Athletic club. There he telephoned Hanlon's taxi office to send a taxi to the Athletic club. When the taxi arrived he got in the rear seat on the left side beside the driver, Pierce. He told the driver to go to a number on First street in Little Falls. As they were going along Bradford avenue down a hill he took the pistol from his right hip pocket and shot Pierce in the back of the head.
Pierce fell over on the right side of the seat. Noel climbed over the seat, stopped the car with the emergency brake, pushed Pierce out of the way on the seat beside him and drove to Pompton Turn-

Colored Boy Beaten, Shot at, Father Lynched in Ga. in 1915
Colored Boy, in Jail Ten Years on Life Sentence, Seeks Release
A Georgia lynching ten years old, in connection with which an innocent colored boy, in jail under life sentence, seeks release, has been reported to the N.A.A.C.P. The lynching was not hitherto recorded. The imprisoned colored boy, Ulysses Coolsbys, is being aided by the Rome, Ga., branch of the association. Court testimony given at the original trial snows the following facts:
A white man, H. J. Villipigle, while driving along a country road near Blakely, Ga., met Ulysses Goolsby, a young colored man, driving a buggy in an opposite direction, having with him a young girl whom he was taking to an entertainment. Goolsby testified he drove as far to one side as the road would permit, nevertheless the white man Villipigle got down from his buggy, after ordering the boy to get out of his way and, holding a pistol in one hand, whipped Goolsby with a buggy whip, stirring him in the face, Goolsby making no resistance nor protest. The white man even struck with his whip the young colored girl accompanying Goolsby.
Goolsby's father, Granderson Goolsby, determined the next day to call upon Willipigne with his son and to make reparation for any offense which might have been alleged as justifying the brutal attack upon the boy. On the way, they asked Charlie Gleives to accompany them and show the way to Willipigne's house. Willipigne, when called upon, came out of his house. "Is that the bigger I whipped yesterday?" he asked Granderson Goolsby replied. "That my son, brought him down here to ask with him, talk it over and give you satisfaction." Willipigne said: "No. Look out, I am going to kill him." Immediately drilled two shots from a pistol. Goolsby then took a rifle from his begyg and shot the white man.
Granderson Goodsby was pigeon
gently laughed by a mob. The
son, Ulysses Goodsby, who had
been beaten, testified he had never
before seen the white man who as-
signed him, that he had done his
tumor to get his buggy out of the
way on the road. He said at his
trial:
"I was 17 years old and I never
have a white man a cross word. I
had nothing in my heart against
anybody. I never had as much as
you could hold on a pin point
against any white folks.
This young Goodsby is reported to
be an honest, hard-working boy.
He has been in the Georgia chain
gang for 10 years. Efforts are now
being made to obtain parole or pardon for him.

E. E. Harrison, of Lorain, O. colored labor foreman, claims he has a patent for a process by which pure copper can be made as hard as steel. Nation states, according to report, that an offer of $3,000,000 for the patent made by eastern capitalists has been refused.

COLORED COP CLEARS
UP JERSEY ROBBERY
Patrolman Henry Pryor of South Orange is being congratulated on all sides in the village, for it is doubtful whether the $8,000 robbery at the home of James W. Greene, wealthy furniture man in Center street. Monroe section would have cleared and had not Pryor left his pawn and gone to Greene home in time to detect three burglars in the act of making their getaway.
Pryor came upon the burglars as they were replacing a cap on a vacuum tank in an auto after they had ransacked the Greene home Saturday morning. He knew it was the cutoff of Mr. Greene's son-in-law, Frederick W. Radel, also of Center street, and believed Walter Gallagher, Rade's chauffeur, when the latter said he had arrived with Mr. Greene.
Pryor remembered the vacuum cuptop incident, however, and next day went to the Radel garage and found the same plug in the auto tank. Gatingsher arrest and that of his two pals followed.
"Me, with my eagle eye, did it." is the way Pryor puts it.

he cried "Thank God," then broke down and wept.
His wife and two daughters seven and eight, were visiting him when the news came.
The reprieve was grated through a direct request communicated to the Governor by District Attorney Banton, who had received an affidavit signed by one Jimmie Dephee, a witness of the murder of Will Gins and who swore he could prove Miller was not guilty.
The affidavit was obtained through Earl Carroll, the theatre producer, who has confessed an interest in the condemned man.

"He walked into the quarry, got Pierce's car out and drove out over Mountain road into Upper Montclair. He stopped in front of No. 136, saw some children playing, jumped out and requested a little ride. He grabbed her, picked her up in his arms, and threw her in the front seat of the taxi. Then he jumped in and drove off.

Notch station, to the first block on the left. There, a few hundred feet distant, or four men in a closed car came along. He drew his pistol and fired one shot, speeding on.
"He drove on but did not know where he was going. He finally stopped the car, where he later showed the police where the body was found. At that spot he said he requested the little girl to get out of the car.
"He then led her about ten feet from the road and shot her twice. After shooting her, he dragged her into the bushes where she left her; the little girl said nothing. While driving the car she kept crying, but he said nothing to her, just drove on.
"He then returned to Monclair, driving down to Glen Ridge depot, and there searched the telephone directory for the name of a person living at No. 136 Upper Mountain avenue, where the Bowers reside.
"A lady answered the telephone and he asked her if she was interested in a little girl dressed in pink who had been taken away in the morning. She answered 'Yes.' He then said, 'Get me $4,000 as ransom.' He told her she could get the money in banks in upper New York, in the theatre district. "She then asked who was talk-
ing, and he hung up the receiver and drove home. He said he remained around his home and in Montclair, until Saturday, when he moved to New York to quarrelers." Pierce bore in good reputation where he were employed.
AND FOUR CHILDREN
The funeral of Pierce, who leaves a wife and four children, was held Sunday and that of Mary Daly, Tuesday. Mrs. Daly sent a bouquet of flowers to Mrs. Pierce, which silently expressed their mutual grief—one for the loss of a husband, the other a dearly beloved child. Mrs. Noel, mother of the kidnapper-murderer, publicly expressed sympathy for both.
Investigations in the Montclair Police Court for the Pierce killing, Noel pleaded not guilty, and was held without bail.
Investigations have already been started in New York and New Jersey to fix responsibility for the release of Noel from the Essex County Hospital in New Jersey and from Bellevue Hospital in New York City.
The fact has already been established that Noel should not have been at large. It also developed that Dix W. Noel, a lawyer, with offices at 67 Wall street, your Noel's father, had signed an affidavit aawing responsibility for his son's acts and promising to return him to the Essex County institution.
Republicans to Reward Smith
Republican organization candidate for alderman.
Mr. Smith is and has been an election district captain for many years. He has always shown by his results on election day what good fellowship and close contact with his constituents mean. He is the type of citizen who believes in tackling any problem which confronts him with all the energy and optimism at his disposal. Through this method he has been singularly successful, thus endearing himself to his fellowman. He is looked upon as one of the most popular and straightforward men in this community. His word is his bond.
Mr. Smith is a prominent churchman, being a member of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church. He is also prominent in fraternal organizations, being president of the Coachmen's Union League Society, a member of the Southern Beneficial League, an Elk, Odd, Fellow, Free and Accepted Mason, K. of P., Independent Order of St. Luke's, Submens's Protective Union No. 1, Howard Union League Club, Beneficial League of Volunteer Charity Methodist Brotherhood, United Benefit Banquet Association and the National Federation of Federal Employees, affiliated with the American Federation of Labor.
Mr. Smith pleodes himself to work unarmed for the interest of all the people in his entire admirable district. He believes that the streets in Harlem should have as much attention paid to them as those in the Riverside Drive section of the city; proper protection for pedestrians at street crossings; sanitary and sufficient schools for children; up to date both houses and play grounds for children; reduction in the expenditure of municipal funds which will result in the reduction of both rent and taxes and the high cost of living. His candidacy should appeal to all classes of citizens in the community to whom he makes a special appeal for their vote on Primary Day.
To serve ten days in jail was the preference of Mrs. Agatha Hubert, 22, 215 W. 134th street, with the option of paying a $50 fine, when she was found guilty of disorderly conduct in the Washington Heights Court, Wednesday.
Mrs. Hubert attacked her husband, Vincent, from whom she is separated, with a knife on the corner of 134th street and Eighth avenue, according to Policeman Regan of the 155th street station.
Although Hulbert was bleeding from a slash on the top of his head, he was arraigned at once before Magistrate Francis McQuade with his wife. The charge against him was dismissed.
Three youths were held in $1,900 ball each for further examination when they appeared before Magistrate McQuade in the Washington Heights Court Saturday on a charge of robbing Edward Francis, 14. 151 West 140th street, of 75 cents. The accused youths are: John Simonds, 17. 243 West 137th street; Waldorf Way, 17. 126 West 130th street, and Arthur Hale, 122 West 139th street.
SUSPENDS SENTENCE.1
ON AUTO THIEF
Because of his sympathy for a convicted man's wife and four children, Judge Mulqueen, in the General Sessions Thursday suspended a sentence against Miles Bennett, a chauffeur, 417 Lenox avenue, near 131st street, after he had pleaded guilty to the theft of a taxicab on Aug. 17 at 137th street and Fifth avenue.
New York World Accuses Negro of Daly Crime
How eager the New York World was to fasten the Mary Daly kidnapping and murder on a colored man may be gleaned from the following front page leading column story which appeared the morning after the crime, under the following double column headline:
The body was found by Herbert, Matz, at a time when Mary's father, David F, Daly, treasurer of the Washington Hardware Company, No. 257 Greenwich street, Manhattan, and scores of motorcycle police and state troopers of a dozen towns were hunting the kidnapper.

"Hundreds of policemen and civilians were searching last night the fields and wooded sections of Cedar Grove, N. J., for Mary Daly, 6, who was kidnapped at noon near her home, No. 5 Prospect avenue, Montcair, N. J., by a Negro, who whisked her away in a taxicab. The kidnapper drove with one hand, stifled her cries with the other, and shot through the head a man who attempted to frustrate the kidnapping.
"Seven hours after kidnapping, the body of Raymond Pierce, 26, almost white Negro taxi-driver, of Montclair, who at first was suspected of having kidnapped the child, was found in Bowden's picnic woods, off Little Falls road, Cedar Grove. An autopsy by County Physician Martial of Essex County revealed Pierce had been shot through the back of the head with a 30-callibre steel jacket bullet.
"The autopsy revealed, according to the physician, that Pierce was dead four hours before the kidnapping. Pierce had been shot from behind, the bullet penetrating its skull.
"Little Mary had finished luncheon with her mother, kissed her goodbye and stepped out to play in front of the home of Joseph A. Bower, vice president of the New York Trust Company, at No. 136 Upper Mountain avenue, two blocks from the Daly home. She was playing with her brother, David, Jr. 4, and two other children, Janet Dix, 11, and Nancy Cix, seven, daughters of R. C. Dix of No. 2 Prospect avenue, when the taxicab appeared.
"The car halted just beyond the Bower home, A Negro leaped from the seat and snatched up Mary. He tucked her under an arm and as she scricamed and kicked, tossed her on the front seat and drove off.
"Fearful that Sandin was desperately wounded, Gould and O'Mara gave up pursuit. The Negro stepped on the gas and his car lunged on. in the direction of West Paterson.
Tammany O.K.s Lyons' Candidacy

Mr. Lyons does not deny. Lyons's
Publicity Bureau is advertising
Lyons as "Harlem's Own Candidate" and appealing to the colored voters in Harlem with the gossest misstatements and misrepresentation. Apparently he holds the colored people of Harlem in very low esteem if he thinks he can make them swallow this bunk. The facts are: Lyons parades as a Harlem man when nobody has seen him in Harlem in four years. He lives in
Neponsit, L. I., and in the winter months stops at the Hotel Ansonia; had a voting residence at 188 St. Nicholas avenue, which he lost when the people moved away, and he claims, since starting in this primary campaign, the Hotel Theresa as his home. He further claims that he and Charles W. Anderson secured positions for colored people under the administrations of Mayor John Purro Mitchel and President Harding, when the truth it: First, that Charles W. Anderson positively repudiates the statement that Lyons ever cooperated with him or helped him. Second: John Purro Mitchel never appointed a colored man to a salaried position during Lyons' leadership. Third: President Harding was elected in 1920, the same year Lyons was elected to office, at which time I was leader of the district. Lyons' entire absence from Harlem dates from 1920. I took this district over from Lyons with the club in debt for a year's rent and not a single Republican office-holder in the entire district, because Lyons was so busy looking out for himself that he had no time to give thought to the faithful workers. He now makes his re-appearance in Harlem in his old familiar role trying to uncoach the people for his own selfish personal advancement, backed by Tammany Hall. His first appointment when Secretary of State went to the brother of a Tammany Hall district leader.
The enrolled Republicans of Harlem are warned that Tammany Hall captains will solicit them in behalf of Lyons, for this is being

Roll of Bills Snatched While Making Change
To accommodate Elmwood Season, 27, 244 W. 63rd street, Joseph Robinson, 131 W. 139rd street, claims that he was robbed of $60 by him at 63 W. 138th street. This was learned when the men were arraigned before Magistrate Moquade in the Heights court, Wednesday. Session was held in $1,000 ball for further hearing.

Siki Again Cuts Up Before Leaving FIGHT FANS SHOULD STOP ROWDYISM Moonlight Ship in With Crowded Decks Douglas Getting Ready for Basketball
Rowdyism Threatened Mixed Bouts at Commonwealth Last Saturday
Continued Unsportsmanlike Conduct of Band of Unprincipled Roughs Said to Be Attracting Attention of Boxing Commission, and Colored Fighters Will Suffer if Drastic Action Is Taken
As we pointed out in these columns some months ago, it is not necessary to argue on the right or wrong in the premises when drastic action is taken by the New York State Athletic Commission and they put their feet down on mixed bouts at the Commonwealth Sport Club if the conduct of some of the unruly boys in the gallery continues.
In the present case might is right, as it has been in so many cases before, and while Jess McMahon, as fine a promoter as ever ruled over the destiny of any club, will plead before the Boxing Fathers for a chance to let the colored boys continue to earn a livelihood and the descent colored fans to enjoy the bouts at home in Harlem, by no stretch of the imagination can we blame the gentlemen if they say nay to genial Jess.
We have no sympathy with those eleven of the New York League by fans who deplored Levine's quick a margin of 17 runs and 5 wickets.
FOUR
And all because of some unruly roughs who early on fight nights secure the seats in the gallery overlooking the ring and show their disapproval of decisions and other things by throwing newspapers, orange peel and other missiles into the ring. Last Saturday night they went so far as to throw bottles.
True, Referee Gunboat Smith is not the best referee in the world, and from a reliable source we have it that an attempt will be made to urge the boxing commission to tall Patsy Haley to the Commonwealth. To the Saturday night, but nothing the fans can do will change the events transpiring in the ring and a resort to violence will spell trouble and a great deal of it for both the just and the unjust if this thing keeps up.
The person or persons throwing bottles into the ring because things are not going to suit them are not only the worst kind of sports in the world, but they are the lowest and most cowardly and their acts are induced by the mob spirit. If they stood alone in the open there was no need to about the least Shadow of doubt who the culprit happens to be, they would be the most meek and lamblike individuals on earth.
Of course, at the seat of it all is a condition which is the most deployable in this country, for in mixed bouts the true spirit of sportsmanship far from prevails and feeling is very intense; the white fans want to see the white fighter win regardless, and the colored fans share the feeling. This is unfortunate, but we are the "man furthest down in the scheme of intelligent colored men are giving all their time to suppressing in the South—and that is the mob spirit.
If Jess McMahon succeeds in getting by with a continuation of mixed bouts, we join in asking those colored fans, acting in an unruly manner, to restrain themselves and give their own fighters a chance. Being of the same tint and just as human as any colored fan, we ask the boys to follow this principle when viewing the bouts: Let the white brother shout as hard as he wants to for his man; but sit tight, say nothing and when the colored fighter comes through the victor, you will find the enjoyment so keen you can almost sympathize with your white neighbor who a few minutes before ranted and raved for "his boy" to win. We do this every Saturday night and get a lot out of it. Now boys, if any of you can prove to me any satisfaction you received by acting in a despicable manner or throwing bottles, hissing, hooting, etc., we'll gladly forfeit one-third of our weekly earnings and it won't be so small either.
Speaking to you, fellows, in a calm, cool and collected manner, let me tell you what's going to happen if a bottle lays open the head of a fighter or the referee: First you are going to bring about one of the worst scenes that ever took place at a fight club. Second, you are going to have colored fighters barred at all fight clubs; and third, this thing is so far-reaching you might light the match that will explode the powder that will even bar Harry Wills from getting his chance to fight another white man. Think it over.
Levine Whips McGale
There's no room for doubt in the matter. That boy, George Lovine, has the makings of a champion and his showing against Frisco McGale at the Commonwealth Sport Club last Saturday night stamps him as one of the best fighters of his weight performing in the ring today.
Frisco is a fine fighting lad, and for five rounds he carried the fight to Lovine and made a splendid showing. But the white boy had the reserve to unsuspected perch his closest follower from the sixth to the last round he lambasted McGale and even had the colored lad in distress on more than one occasion.
hitting on the breaks, "Frisco" was right in there with two good hands and he should have retaliated. Had Gunbun Smith, the "Unbeautiful and Dumb" referee, a better knowledge of his new profession, McGale would have benefited, for walking between the men after breaking them would have saved Walk Miller's man from many a snappy shot to the face.
This thing of "turning the other cheek" by a number of fighters of color is all wet. Let them wake up and do unto the other fellow those things "within the law" being done to them, and they will fare better. Cirillian Oriano won from Goberski, but he had to go the route to win as the latter was one of the toughest men the Cuban has ever met. Right shots to "Gobe's" jaw made little impression and the danger of his wild swings kept Orlando busy getting out of the way.
Manty and Hall Saturday
Charley Manty, New Bedford's entry for the lightweight title, and Joe Hall, the Buffalo colored lad, have been matched for the star attraction of ten rounds at the Commonwealth Sporting Club in Harlem next Saturday night. In another ten Joe Canamare, former A. Δ. U. welterweight champion, who is forging his way to the top of the division, will take on Mike Hellen, the aggressive and hardhitting Bayonne lad. The third ten will feature Barney Adair, the Harlem welterweight, and Sid uBrt, the Bronx lad with the terrific kick in his right.
Siki Will Be Siki Even Unto the Last
"Be Yourself," Somebody Said to the Battling One, and He Has Been That Ever Since
"Battling" Sikl, Senegalese light-heavyweight, who is facing deportation, had more trouble heaped upon him when Louis Ritter, representative of the Pacific Finance Corporation, 47 East 34th street, appeared before Magistrate McAndrews in West Side Court and obtained a summons returnable to tomorrow) charging him with criminally secreting mortgaged property.
Ritter told the magistrate that on July 24 Sikl obtained an automobile from his concern, the price of which was to be $700. Sikl, Ritter explained, paid $400 and the Pacific Finance Corporation took a mortgage for the $300.
Since that time, Ritter said, the former champion pugilist has failed to reburse the corporation the $300 or the premiums on the mortgage. When representatives of the corporation located the pugilist and asked him to tell them where the car was kept, which was part of the contract, he declined to do so.
Anderson Kayoes Hali in Third at Grove
Lee Anderson, colored battler of Harlem, knocked out Roscoe Hall, of Paterson, N. J., in the third round of a scheduled six-round feature at Ridgewood Grove, last Saturday night. It was a furious scrap.
Hall had Anderson down for the nine count on two occasions in the first round, but in the second Anderson came back and had Hall groggy.
Tony Socony won from Sld Goldie in the semi-final when the latter was disqualified in the third round for rough tactics.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 9, 1925
The Sportive Spotlight
SPORTSMANSHIP IN TENNIS
The recent national championships of the A. T. A. at Bordentown furnished striking grounds for comparison of the personalities of the two leading figures in the world of tennis prior to the victory of "Ted" Thompson in the men's singles. Talley Holmes of Washington, who had held the national title four times, went down to defeat before young Eyre Saitch. As a writer on one of our contemporaries said: "Magnificent in defeat, Talley exhibited the same imperturbable calm that has characterized him in victory."
Game to the core and a true sportsman, Mr. Holmes is still beloved by the tennis fans, whether they subscribe to his method of stroke production or whether they are exponents of the driving game. In the days when Talley was champion, a defeated opponent was always accorded courtesy after the match, and his sole comment on many occasions was: "He was a good player. I had to use everything I knew to win." Mr. Holmes realized the limitations of his game and never urged anyone to desert another style to pattern after him. He played the best game he knew and accepted victory without any change in his temperament and was therefore prepared for defeat. And we bow in tribute to the "Old Master," who has passed as the leader of tennis, but who remains—and will ever remain—the leader in courtesy and true sportsmanship, which is, after all, the greatest thing.
Edgar G. Brown held the national title for two years, was barred from competition in 1924 because of alleged acts of rowdyism on the courts in Chicago in 1923, and attempted a comeback at Bordentown in 1925. The world now knows of his defeat at the hands of Ted Thompson in the semifinals, but there are few mourners over his failure to stage a successful comeback. While the public admires his perfect back court driving game, they cannot forgive his unsportsmanlike trumpeting in the press over his defeat of Holmes and his unfair criticisms of his opponent's play in Chicago, where Brown twice defeated Talley. "I was only passed once during the match." "His backhandles, run around, push, pat balls." These were some of the statements broadcast to the press of America by the victor in a game supposed to be confined to those who, by their social and intellectual standing, are supposed to be ladies and gentlemen, and, above all, true sportsmen.
Tilden, Richards and Johnston play frequently and each has at some time been defeated by the others, but never has a personal, derisive attack been made on either by the victor in any one match. Yet there is much to criticize in the form of Richards. Tilden alludes to the faulty footwork of the Yonkers star, but comes back and praises his marvellous timing, which neutralizes this fault. Johnston's backhand is not the perfectly executed stroke of Tilden, but he is not alluded to as a "dub" or a "pat baller." Tilden has been beaten by Wallace Johnson, a chop stroke artist, and forced to five sets with the Kinseys, who depend on mixed lobs and chops, but no campaign of ridicule has been launched to discredit these men because their play is unorthodox. Then why should one of us because he happens to be master of ONE STROKE in tennis set himself up to defame and deride all other men who do not imitate him.
And the press of the country has been remiss in their duty to sports in rushing in to fill their columns with this self-praise and "knocking" week after week. We join with Brown in urging the reading of tennis books: we join with him in urging the use of a drive as the basis of the game, but we unequivocally oppose his setting himself up as the arbiter of all that is good in tennis, when he has apparently neglected one of the paramount features — that is, to be a real true sportsman on the courts as well as off.
Brown was beaten by a man who had developed an ALL COURT GAME and a repertoire of strokes, rather than a back court game, with one stroke, a drive with top spin. This is Tilden's advice. Be master of all strokes and be able to make shots from any part of the court. Bordentown showed that Brown cannot lob, chop, smash overhead or volley from fore court. Such a champion would be as lacking as Talley is with his push service and his push drive. Thompson has the best game among us and only needs a little more accuracy on his top spin drive. His service is much more severe than Brown's; he is great overhead, a wonderful volleyer, lobs high and accurately, has a perfect backhand with a chop drive, has a good forehand drive, both with top spin and chop, and is almost the equal of the great Sylvester Smith on short chops and angles from the net. Give Ted a top spin drive on his backhand and a steadier top spin forehand and we predict that Brown's cherished hope of "on to Forest Hills" will have a worthy competitor if the time ever comes. We believe that in another year Thompson will compare with any man below the first twenty in the U.S.L.T.A., and after considering the far greater number of players of the other race, this is no mean standing. Let us hope, however, that our young champion will take his lessons in sportsmanship from the "Old Master," Talley Holmes, rather than from the still "Ex-Champion," Edgar G. Brown.
Readers of the majority of the colored newspapers are so "fed up" on praise of shows that are fair, bad, indifferent, we pride ourselves on having the nerve to reproduce from time to time the kind of accounts kept out of "world's greatest weeklies" and others — this, naturally, includes the "tri-weeklies" (trying to get out). And his, despite the fact that Theophilus Lewis of the Messenger Magazine might be tempted to charge us with shouting about being honest.
We don't worry about Theo. and the other dear boys. Shout that name taken from the pages of some Roman law book and the populace will simply wear a bewildered look, but whisper our monica and more than one will recognize it, even if it is to denounce the owner for his brass in refusing to "stay put" in the beaten path of colored theatrical journalism. Here's some stuff taken from one of the O'Fay theatrical weeklies that was written without any regard as to whether it pleased or displeased:
Jack Reid's "White and Black Revue" at the Columbin this week is far from a satisfactory entertainment. The unmuch heralded addition of the colored revue which consumes the entire portion of the second act and closes the first act is by far the best and nephew die
partment of the burlesque, but doesn't measure up to the standard
set by his other colored artists who have preceded it at the house.
The entire show lacks comedy in both the white and colored portions. Joe Melino does his eccentric grotesque character, reminiscent of Bluch Landorf, getting a few laughs with mugging and business, but they could be counted on one hand. Harry Hopner, Hebrew comedian, hasn't a funny bone in his makeup. Reid does a little straight work, working on opposite Melino in a couple that missed widely.
"Cartoons From Life," revue flashes, also flopped. The producers are still suffering from the revue complex, despite the fact that not one burlesque show in ten has the people to put the illustrated anecdotes across for laughs. One of the flashes in this show is the "fur boat gag."
The numbers led by the soubret and ingonue died standing up, although a white chorus of about eight girls danced acceptably and showed pretty wardrobe. The nearest approach to a voice among the women is the prima donna's. Her specialty in one" got some return. Near the finale of one thirteen colored dress with preponderance of brass, speed up the proceeding for the finale. To this accompaniment, Ethel Walker scooted a couple of blues songs that in contrast to what had gone before, and the usual hard, wildworking chorus tossed their torsors about for the first genuine returns of the evening. Henry Drake led the musickers, using cork and big shoes for comedy effect. A trio brass arrangement of a classical number was a bit drawn out, but the band worked hard and sold itself.
After intermission the colored Drake and Walker Revue opened. The white musicians had given over the pit to the jazz band, now reduced to nine in number, and revue about six male principals of the company of nine colored girls.
Henry Drake was prominent here, handling a talking bit in one which clicked in spots and missed in others. He got most in a restaurant table bit as a hick squawking at the prices and cover charge. The scene holds possibilities for elaboration, but needs rewriting. William and Clifton Drake shot over a corking dance doubled, cecil buck and wing hooding that clicked and and waved a straight line, his diction about in a manner that would delight Octavius Roy Cohen.
Sambo Reed as a dame in the opening scene and later in a "nance" bit in a quartet number got some results. Incidentally this same "nance" bit was the funniest piece of business in the revue; old, but made funny through the handling. All four of the mon, including a tough cop, become inoculated with femininity, Sambo succumbing last. The spontaneous laughs in the revue occur upon the few occasions when the principals lapse into native Ethiopian dialect. When they stick to the book they don't do so we see. The chorus 60 takes the show and, like all colored choruses, sets a record for appearance and pep. The only white specialist to click in the first half was Will Ferry, the Frog Man, in his contortion act. The act was built up by a ballet of chorus girls in frog costumes. Ferry's own set was used, and made quite a flash.
Reid has made a valiant effort to give them something different, but neither his white nor colored section can be expected to draw attention to the question of people and material. The colored half needs direction also. Too much dancing and too little comedy as it stands.
Moonlight Ship Again In With Big Crowd on Deck
Skipper ..Satisfied ..That ..the Old Boat Is Good for Many More Cruises Before Retirement
Oh, we're a merry, merry band From a merry, merry land; We're happy roving sailors gay and free; And we come with lusty shout, From sailing in and out. Oh, we're merry, merry sailors we. Hi, ho, and a bottle of rum, me in out of the Moonlight Ship. Thooc day when the passed the grog is taboo and if anything stronger than ginger ale came from the galley to the captain's bridge we did not see it or we are fast asleep in a big city
It was last Monday night when we sallied forth to the dock at New Star Casino and saw that big crowd boarding the famous Moonlight Ship for her usual Labor Day night sail up the Hudson, and it was a bosun's mate that took us in charge and made us think we were on the good ship Pinafore when "Pat" and his boys started to make merry.
The captain hold stood on the deck which was far from burning, although the sweet tunes from the seaguing band, led by one John C. Smith, kept the dancers' feet a-shuffling all night long. And be it known that it was early morning before the good old tub was worked into her moorings by the steady hand of him who is known wherever mariners roam as Captain Henry Wilson. It was a happy crew that sung:
Away, away, we've a holiday,
And we'll off to the sea together;
We'll dip like the robins
That bend or the spray
And breast the worst kind of weather.
But when they returned the crew and passengers were shouting of not going home until morning, and morning it was, me lads, before they got there.
Rain washed out the double-header between the Brooklyn Royal Colored Giants and the Cuban Stars, scheduled at Dexter Park Monday. The games must be played off, as they are carded as regular championship games in the Eastern Mutual Colored League,

Mr. Thomas made St plain that

lt came to’us in a round-

one-time friend, Leigh Whip-

we did not care to accept the|
olive branch after many years
of an estrangement brought
about by a frank statement
at a time when Leigh was
connected .with one of the

which an all-colored cast ap-

what little finances, good-will
and experience we had and in
company with Alex Rogers
worked hard in promoting
one of those ventures in
which our people here in
New | York found interest
only in its closing days.
It will therefore come as a sur
prise to the new manager of the
Orpheum Theatre in Newark, N. J.
to find something of interest’ in
these columas anent his new ac-
uvides. Had we known that our
efforts would find a welcome with
him, we would have taken pains
and pleasure to seck him out and
assure him that we could entertain
only good wishes for his success in
this new venture.
Comes a time in the Ives of all
of us when differences should be
buried for the common good, and
with that Idea fn mind we would
call the attention of our many
friends in the State of New Jersey
to the fact that they are enjoying
an opportunity to give worthy sup
port to a theatrical venture, run
op a basis which we do not enjoy
even here in Harlem, despite the
promises of some ot our verbose
white friends.

Nothing responds to loving, careful building up of beauty so quickly as a woman's face and hair, when treated the right way and with correct, scientific materials that feed the tissues and create a healthful, peachy skin glow and give new life and elegance to a beautiful woman's hair.
Eva Summers proves this by the loviness that distinguishes her from a roomful of fine appearing women.
"Any woman can have supreme beauty of face, and hair that will give her the proudest delight," she says, "for the simple investment of a very small sum of money in Exelento Skin Beautifier, Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Soap, and a small amount of time each day applying these wonderful preparations as directed on the package."
"These are all I have used and all any woman needs; these and the determination to put her beauty first and to let nothing interfere with her daily applications of Exelento Skin Beautifier, Exelento Skin Soap and Exelento Quinine Pomade."

Health and Home
CAMPING AND PROBLEMS OF FOOD.
There is no healthier sport than camping. During the warm and balmy spring and summer days, it is real recreation. To get out in the fresh air and sunshine; free from worry aid care, enhances the health of anyone, be he office man, salesman or what not. He is therefore insufficient means for home cooking in the majority of camps, there is the ever-present danger of sickness from infected foods. The utmost
care must be taken in order that this may be avoided. Butter and eggs should be bought only as used. The milk is a problem in itself. Perhaps the solution lies in the use of a milk other than market milk, in order that purity and sterility may be assured. For such use, evaporated milk is ideal. Many people are wont to confuse evaporated and condensed milks, but there is no similarity between the two. Condensed milk is a combination of sugar and milk and can be used only when both of these substances are desired. Evaporated milk is merely pure fresh milk with about 60 per cent of the water removed and the nutrient content left intact. It is absolutely sterile and pure, having been sterilized before leaving the factory. The water, removed by evaporation, may be replaced very easily and the milk returned to its original volume. Evaporated milk may be obtained

in small cans, containing six ounces or in larger ones containing 16 and can be taken to the camp in quantifies sufficient for the needs of the entire period, thus assuring a constant supply of pure, fresh milk without the worry or the danger attached to the use of the market product. Following are recipes for a few dishes that are best adapted for camp consumption because of ease of preparation, purity and food value.
Tomato Soup.
1 pt. tomato pulp 1½ cups water or canned to Salt and pepper mato soup to taste
1½ cups evapo- ½ tsp. soda rated milk

The address of Mr. Charles
Brown Hughes before the
American Bar Association
with a significant statement
of fundamental principle
inference. This speech
should like the old-time
Brown before the days
when he was Secretary of
State.
Mr. Hughes did not discuss
evolution, but he did
mention the recent Scopes
victory and the law leading up
to this is what he said:
"Our curriculum in our
college and State un-

a question of conserva-

that the opinions of the
thesis should be taught

The question on which I write is the result of the research and examination of many men.

Soap Box Orator and Listeners Get Shower Out of Clear Sky
Soap Box Orator and Listeners Get Shower Out of Clear Sky
Deluge, However, Fails to Dampen Ardor of Frank R. Crosswaith, Who Continued Harangue
Just as Frank R. Crosswaih, executive secretary of the Trade Union Committee for Organizing Negro Workers, was asking a crowd of 500 people, who were congregated around a soap box on the corner of 138th street and Seventh avenue, from which he was speaking, where was Hylan, a big tub of water was thrown out of an upstairs window on the listeners Thursday night.
Crosswaih was deploring the owardice of Mayor Hylan and Governor Smith in denouncing the whole Democratic Party. The Democratic Party of New York is the same party as that of Texas, Georgia and Alabama, he said.
"You people migrated from the South as a protest against injustice, and you come here and en-renomination was made Sunday by dorse the actions of the same type of persons that persecuted you in its headquarters in the Waldoft the South by voting the Democrat-Astoria. Headquarters have been in ticket. There are some folk who established at the Poocohontas would rather work their souls than Democratic Club. 203 W. 136th use their intelligence." Crosswaih declared.
Harlem Women Back Hylan for Nomination
Announcement that 800 colored women in Harlem had been organized to support Mayor Hylan for vice, and you come here and en-renomination was made Sunday by dorse the actions of the same type of persons that persecuted you in its headquarters in the Waldoft the South by voting the Democrat-Astoria. Headquarters have been in ticket. There are some folk who established at the Poocohontas would rather work their souls than Democratic Club. 203 W. 136th use their intelligence." Crosswaih declared.
That the Mayor called to present the actions of Judge Tlerman in sentencing a colored man last March was severely criticized by the speaker.
Just as the speaker was beginning to ask questions as to where Hyland was when these things occurred, some of the tenants in the apartment building on the corner hurled a big tub of water out of the window on a part of the crowd. The crowd moved around more to the sides. The speaker hurled protesting remarks at the water throwers and then continued his appeal for the people to think and act intelligently in voting.
Penn. Red Caps Offer College Scholarship

Egan have established a scholarship to be awarded to the son of a station porter having the highest meritorious marks in English, mathematics, history and chemistry.

Harlem Women Back Hylan for Nomination
Announcement that 800 colored women in Harlem had been organized to support Mayor Hyllan for renomination was made Sunday by the Honest Government League at its headquarters in the Waldorf-Astoria. Headquarters have been established at the Pocahontas Democratic Club. 203 W. 138th street, with Miss Marie B. Colbert, president of the club, in charge.
"We consider Mayor Hylan an outstanding official, who knowing no race nor creed, has done much for the advancement of the Negro." Miss Colbert said, "No other official ever opened so many avenues of opportunity to our men, women and children. Under his administration our professional men and women have been given recognition. He installed Negro surgeons and nurses in Harlem Hospital. He made the widow's pension law really operative. He has thrown open breathing places for our people. Through his mayor's committee of women he helped us with free milk, ice and coal."

PHYSICALLY UNFIT
DENIED GOOD JOB
Because of physical unfitness, six Negro persons were rejected by the New York Edison Company for employment for a responsible position. This was learned after the employment bureau of the Urban League was called upon to send two more persons after others had been sent. Appearance and common sense are the big essentials that are necessary to secure the position. Another vital factor to be considered in applying for a position is the condition of the teeth, it was learned from the league's employment department.

WASHINGTON. D. C.—The American Druggist, a monthly magazine for Pharmacists and Drug Merchants, published in New York City, issue of August, 1925, contains an article covering five pages being "A History of the Negro in Pharmacy," by Miss Mozella E. Lewis, who graduated from the College of Pharmacy, Howard University, with the class of 1925.
Along with the article itself, is a picture of Miss Lewis and the following statement: "This History of the Negro Pharmacist in America is a thesis written by Miss Mozella Esther Lewis, winner of the Lehn & Fink Medal in Pharmacy this year at the College of Pharmacy of Howard University, Washington, D. C. As is well known, Lehn & Fink, New York, award a gold medal each year in some forty colleges of pharmacy all over the United States. Each medal goes to the student showing the greatest proficiency in pharmacy or who submits the best thesis, though this is not a requirement for the award, which is made entirely on the recommendation of the faculty. In this case, the medal was awarded by a committee of the faculty on the basis of originality in thesis, amount of work invested and conscientious effort." This article is largely statistical, but it is not abridged, as it is believed it will prove of value as a record to any compiler.

HUGHES RECITES
POEMS AT CAPITAL
WASHINGTON. — Langston Hughes, the young Negro poet of Washington, and recent prize winner in the literary contests conducted by The Crisis and Opportunity magazines, read from his poems, soon to appar in book form, at the Penguin Club, 1712 Eye Street, Northwest, recently. The title of the book—will be "The Weary Blues."
in Pharmacy"
of American Pharmaceutical History. The description of the part that the Negro has taken in the development and progress of the profession is well worthy of note and recording for permanent preservation and reference."
As stated by the publisher, the article is largely statistical, but it is probably the completeest story so far written of the Negro in Pharmacy, with an extensive bibliographical reference. An important statement contained in Miss Lewis' article is: "We have had approximately one hundred Negro pharmacists graduated from white colleges and approximately one thousand five hundred from Negro colleges. Of this number about 20 per cent. have taken medicine and are at present successful physicians and surgeons. About 10 per cent have taken dentistry and 20 per cent have pursued other lines of study, such as teaching, law, theology. The other 50 per cent have found wonderful fields in pharmacy. These statistics give us an idea of what the Negro has done in pharmacy, and should encourage the young men and women of that race interested in this work to improve the many branches of this science in which the Negro has become famous and further develop those phases in which he seemingly has not entered to any great extent, so that the Negro will be an outstanding light in the development of pharmaceutical science."

Lynchburg May Get Seminary
LYNCHBURG, Va., Sept. 7.—At a conference in this city of the officials and leaders for Lynchburg and its Chamber of Commerce, Secretary I. Garland Penn, Cincinnati, O., outlined the plans of the Women's Home Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church for the establishment of a seminary for women at some point in the South, preferably Lynchburg. As an inducement to locate the seminary here, the City, Council and Chamber of Commerce, agreed to guarantee land valued at $25,000.
Five years ago the society, at its National Council in Detroit, Mich., agreed upon Lynchburg. As the city and business interests are now ready to make good its guarantees, it is expected that the National Council, at its meeting in the First Methodist Episcopal Church, Pasadena, Calif., in October, will reaffirm the action taken at Detroit. The seminary is to be a select college for Negro girls, offering degrees and open to students from any section of the United States. Its main support will come from the Women's Home Missionary Society, which is the organization of leading, white and colored women of the Methodist Episcopal Church. This organization had an income last year of over $2,000,000.

When the shades of night are falling
And the day has gone to rest.
Then we seem to hear you calling.
Saying it was for the best.
Though our hearts are filled with sorrow.
And we miss you more and more.
There will come a glad to-morrow
When we'll meet on the beautiful rhore.
Mother, we did not know the palm you bore.
We did not see you die;
We only knew you went away
And did not say good-bye.

BAPTIST ASSOCIATION ORGANIZED IN CITY
In pursuance with a general call made, a large and enthusiastic meeting was held at the St. Andrew's Baptist Church, No. 136 9th Avenue, 129th street, Monday, Aug. 31, 1925, for the purpose of taking into consideration the wisdom of uniting the Christian forces. It was decided that an association of churches and ministers was a necessity and the New York City Baptist Association was organized with the following pastors as officers: Rev. M. B. Hucless, D. D., Moderator; Rev. E. Cook, Vice-Moderator; Rev Wm. M. Morris, clerk, and Rev. Benjamin Johnson, treasurer. The development of the ministry and a more vigorous prosecution of the work of the home and foreign missions will be the immediate work of the association.
Mother Zion Church
The closet of the vacation season was indicated by the large attendance upon the 11 o'clock service at Mother Zion Church on Sunday. Dr. Brown, the pastor, was back from his vacation and stated that he had spent quite a pleasant time visiting churches of various denominations in a number of cities. At 10:45 A. M. he preached to the members of the junior church and at 11 o'clock occupied the pulpit in the main auditorium and preached the morning sermon. He used as his text: "And, because he was of the same craft, he abode with them and wrought; for, by their occupation, they were makers." The theme of his discourses was "Work as a Mason of Obligation." He stated that the Bible teaches that there is a divine principle in labor. At the close of the sermon Rev. Morris extended the invitation and a number of persons connected themselves with the church.
At 2 P. M. the Sunday school convened. There was a fine attendance. The collection amounted to $9.25.
At 2:30 P. M. Rev. H. D. Morrison preached a special sermon to Classes Nos. 4 and 6.
At $ P. M. Dr. Brown preached, using as his subject: "The Value of Enthusiasm."
Thursday—Band concert by the Jenkins Crushage, under the auspices of the junior church. Silver offering.
Quarterly conference is next Sunday.
Minerva P. Williams, a member of the church, is ill in the Jewish hospital. Brooklyn.
RUSH MEMORIAL
Rev. G. M. Oliver preached the junior church sermon at 10 a.m. subject "Sacred Things." Four members joined.
The usual 11 o'clock worship followed that of the junior church, Dr. Oliver selected his text from Isaiah 55:2: "Right and Wrong Way of Living."
At 3.30 p.m. m. all assembled in the main auditorium to the commission services. Rev. W. P. Douglas delivered the message. His subject was "Love."
The evening services were conducted by Rev. J. R. Johnson.
HARLEM SECOND S. D. A
"Court is in session, and the clerk will please read the first case on docket for today." So said Pastor Strachan as he stepped up to his desk on the pulpit last Sunday night at the Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church, 106-108 W. 127th street. The pastor changed his audience and auditorium into a make-believe criminal court scene; and by means of an original allotment, he placed on mock-trial all the leading Protestant denominations, every one of the apostles of Christ, also our Saviour himself, to discover which of them was guilty of the charge preferred against them of changing the Sabbath day. All were exonerated, and the court adjourned to meet again next Sunday night.
Y. M. C. A.
Plans are being perfected by the W. 135th street branch for the biggest work that it has ever undertaken. Programs for the various departments have been worked out looking forward to the largest attendance at activities in the history of the work.
The board of managers, composed of the following: Messrs A. T. Anderson, Wm. H. Austin, Rev. H. C. Bishop, Rev. R. M. Bolden, Messrs E. A. Johnson, John E. Nall, A. S. Newman, Harry H. Pace, Alan L. Dingle and Henry C. Parker, chairman will meet on Sept. 11 at which time the policies and objectives, together with the goals and contemplated programs, will be presented.
Various members of the staff have attended Summer school in preparation for the anticipated enlargement of the program for 1925 and 1926.
The state convention will be held at the Yale Club on Sept. 16, and the following have been selected as delegates: Messrs. John E. Nall, Henry C. Parker and Wm. H. Austin.
September 21 is the opening of Fall term educational classes; Sept. 27, social visitation of church members; Oct. 1, opening of gym-
dianium classes; Oct. 4, Y. M. C. A. Bible study enrollment week and church Bible school rally week.
The Sunday meeting program will have some of the finest speakers in the country that can be secured.
A Camp Glenwood Club was organized at the camp and monthly meetings will be held during the Winter season, the first meeting being held on Sept. 25. The Association has in mind the enlargement of this camp and the extending of activities so as to include senior members next year.
Methodist Weekly Warns of Klan
In its leading editorial of Aug. 27 the Southwestern Christian Advocate, published by the Methodist Book Concern, condemns the recent parade of the Ku Klux Klan in the national capital, and utters a warning that the Klan is a dangerous menace to Protestant Christianity. The Southwestern Christian Advocate had previously published two articles defending the Klan and it is upon these articles that the editorial comments. Of the parade in Washington, the editorial says:
"It was an ignorant and defiant flaunting of the red shirt of religious and racial narrowness into the faces of the other scores of millions of law-abiding citizens and Protestant Christians who refuse to be carried off into bigoted pagan狂agaries and excesses of religious extremism or the certainty at the Klan's highest. However much it may voluntarily assume, it has no legal or allowed status or recognized role as mentor or guardian of the rights or religion of American citizens. We have a government of the people competent for these things. The Klan proposes either to usurp the functions of our government or to supplement them; if the former is their object, they should be stepped up by the government. The government is indeficient of the government as inefficient, and is equally blamable and un-American.
"If Klanism is synonymous with Protestantism, and this Protestantism is the vehicle of Christianity, in such a combination is the death warrant of Protestant Christianity. Christianity that, under dominance of the spirit of rampant radicalism such as the Klan espouses, arranges groups within itself against each other; and that not only opposes race against race, but sanctions race subordination and subservience, thereby repudiates itself at the bar of public opinion. It thereby disqualifies itself to become a universal religion, and its institution and status as a divine revelation. In its basic philosophy, Christianity is non-racial. It must remain so or be outdistanced and supplanted by some other one of the world's living religions.
"Who do now and will forever repudiate on ethical, historical, religious and racial grounds that Klan-ridden Protestantism being fostered by such fanaticism as was exhibited in the Washington demonstration already alluded to. It was in no sense an official Protestantism demonstration. It had not the official sanction of any Protestant Christian denomination. It is found too ornamental, reflection that the President of the nation was not bambooized into honoring it by his presence. As faulty as is the American church, it stands to her eternal credit that no branch of the church gave even racist approval to that large-scale expression of racial and religious animosities."
Re-election of Mrs. L. E. Williams Cheered
At the regular meeting of Eureka Temple No. 22 Wednesday, Sept. 2, 1925, there was great rejoicing over the re-election of the Grand Daughter Ruler, Laura E. Williams, a member of the Temple, who was unable to be present, having only arrived in town that evening. Many esteemed visitors stopped on their way to their various homes, among those being the newly-elected Grand Daughter Doorkeeper, Willie E. Jones of Haiwatha Temple No. 91 of Los Angeles, the guest of Mrs. Ethel Fraser; Past Daughter Ruler Daisy Peters' Daltry of Phyllis Wheatley Temple 22 of Boston, Mass.; Dgt. M. Watson Ruild, a member of Eureka Temple No. 22, who is organizer and deputy of the La Havana Temple No. 303, Havana, Cuba; Dgt. Josephine Anthony of Sunset Temple, Yonkers, and Dgt. Porter of Enterprise Temple, Corona. After very interesting greetings, the daughter Ruler, Rosa Sawyers, asked Daughter Annie Patterson to respond
The delegates who so ardently worked for the re-election of the Grand Daughter Ruler were: Dgt. Rachel Brauchie, Dgt. Lucy O. Brown, Dgt. Daisy Freeman, Dgt. Armenta Srtother, Dgt. Ella Lena, Dgt. Mclntyre, Dgt. Lucy N. Vallace, Dgt. Mamie Shriver, Dgt. aurencia, Dgt. Ella Mono, Dgt. Louisia Parrilla, Dgt. Martha Fields, Dgt. Annie Patterson, Dgt. Ada G. Day.

tacle of their labor group at those points during the terrible controversies between capital and labor. Future organization, so far as the Negro is concerned, cannot as it has been in the past, be half-hearted. Either it must be of the 100 per cent type or not at all, leaving the Negro free to bargain away his swarthy muscles and active brain under his own direction. Either the Negro must be given full protection, in and after strike periods, if he must be left alone, free to work when and where he wishes and subject to strike only when he himself so decides.
The anthracite coal fields now under strike have been a closed corporation to Negro labor, while the bituminous field has been open to him upon fairly good terms. The South carbon field of West Virginia was one of the most prosperous, healthful fields in the country, and the same can be said as to the western Kentucky fields, filled with happy Negro miners up until the time they were ordered to strike. As between capital and labor, the Negro has ever been a rubber ball, being batted from one group to the other, as might suit convenience. When potential strength in numbers and proportion, Negro labor could happily deal with either capital or labor, or with both, were it to him a 100 per cent square deal attitude.
Hercetore, however, strikes as directed by others, have been disastrous to Negro labor, whether an actor therein or a breaker thereof. And past experiences are clear enough, we think, to convince the Negro working group that until others evince an honest-to-gooodness interest in his work welfare, it is up to him to grant, bargain and sell his productive worth upon a plan which will safeguard his work welfare, both in opportunities for profitable employment and in the peaceful participation therein, void of riots, starvation, and other disasters with which his work history so pathetically abounds.
Camp Meetin's Over
"The weary ploughman homeward
wants his way."
Leaving the world to darkness and to me."
(From: Gray's Elegy)
NOW that the Elks, the Eagles, the Masons and the Knights have wended their way homeward, where they may face at least a temporary shortage of bread, butter and coal, which were PREMATURELY EXCHANGED for excursion tickets, gasoline, and circular Goodyear rubber, the fraternal brethren may well, in these few months which precede the home-coming of MR. WINTER and his hearty children, SNOW, ICE and COLD, take inventory of their stock and see what's what and why.
In the first place, bought brotherhood is somewhat like asbestos, which gets red hot in a minute and cools just as quickly. The social hour, when a brother would swim the English channel for his brother yields over night to the cold undeniable necessity of helping out with the rent or taking care of the insurance collector. The huzzas of Camp Meetin are supplanted by not a few "jolts" which are barren of the fine fellowship so previously prevalent.
In other words, we are slightly inclined to be pessimistic over the extended gusto, pump, and energy, to say nothing of the dollars and dimes, all of which might have been diverted to a great human brotherhood, or to Education, Industry, or Science. This humble writer thinks—and he is both a teacher and a NIH—that familial gathering should promulgate some great constructive project having as its aim racial endeavor and welfare, rather than a magnetic social session, following which there are naught but embers of what might have been.
The Elae announce the establishment of a bureau of Education to foster and promote educational facilities of the Race. This project, if consummated, will bloom into concrete results of far-reaching worth. Similar efforts along lines of business, race fellowship, land development, and the like, we think, would do much to fade the darkness which enshrouds a struggling race. Fraternalism, it seems to us, means more than the lodge room grasp and the mystic symbols of secret cohesion. Out in the open world it means the furtherance of those things upon which the development of a nation depends. Nor are its objectives confined to the burial of the dead and the care of the sick. They strike down into every element of Christian advancement, supple.

It is needless to say the City of Orange is following the line of progress daily and hourly. Its citizens and its government are constantly adding attractions. Alfred Costa, a Seven resident, property owner, and one of the business giants of Orange, has recently opened a high class delicatessen store on his premises, corner South and Hickory Sts. Thus giving luster and commercial culture to this famous corner, in the center of the First Ward. The homekeeper store is a thing of beauty, and equals any of the modern stores or its kind in the city and State of New Jersey. The very latest appliances have been installed. The best of products that include groceries, imported olive oils, vegetables, ice cream, candies, and the best of eatables from a variety of sandwiches to the luxuries of a banquet. Perhaps a notable feature is polite attention; quick and prompt service; moderate prices for all goods; predominate the situation.
Alfred, as he is popular called,
received many congratulations
from his host of friends. Likewise
those in charge who are thoroughly
experienced in every branch of the
work. From early morning to late
at night, no man nor woman need
go hungry. "Neither will his lord-
ship" be compelled to wait until
wife comes home to prepare supper.
The family can save money,
fuel, patience and time. The added
brilliance to the corner is not only
a convenience, but a compliment:

The country comes here to inspect and choose, because here it can be presumed to be capable on changes, combined with New York's extraordinary labor supply and can obtain here what can be got nowhere else so cheaply, in such prompt abundance, and in comparable variety. In the same way it is called a foreign city—with its misery, its disorder, its congestion, and at the same time its wealth, its push, and its appeal to the taste and imagination of the spender, manifests itself intensely in these inexpensive and community manager might almost consider them as a microcosm of New York problems."
The survey, of which only a few of the principal points have been touched upon, is one of a series of similar investigations into the conditions prevailing in the New York City its environs, conducted under the direction of Robert Murray Halg and Roswell C. McGrea, professors of business economics at Columbia University. These investigations are a preliminary the world's most comprehensive cover not only the five boroughs of New York City, but a network of municipalities and suburban areas around it reaching into New York State, New Jersey and Connecticut to a radius of 50 to 60 miles under the committee headed by Frederic A. Delano, and including Robert W. deForest, John H. Finley, John M. Glenn, Dwight W. Morrow, Frank L. Polk, Frederic B. Pratt and Lawson Purdy.

BETHLEHEM STEEL
HELPS EMPLOYEES
WASHINGTON—Believing that home ownership makes for better, happier, and more settled citizens and employees, the management of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation has developed housing plan activities in the construction of pany's major plants, and homes valued at $13,000,000 have already been purchased by 3,400 employees of the company. The housing activities are administered by a real estate organization at each of the principal plants. Special attention is given to the improvement of existing housing plans, the construction of new houses, where housing facilities are inadequate, and to the helping of employees in the purchase or erection of homes. Due to the fact that the Bethlehem Steel Corporation gives employment to hundreds of colored men it is believed that this system of adding to the labor turnover among this class of wage-earners whose desire for permanent employment and residence depends so largely upon the question of adequate housing and educational facilities.
Tuskegee Institute, in an effort to reach every backward community in the South, has been experimenting with an agricultural school in the school district of Booker T. Washington, is designed to bring the things a farmer should know directly to his farm, and in the automobile is equipment to demonstrate farming, sanitation, clothing making and other necessities. The farmer is shown how more efficiently to cultivate his crops, sharpen tools, inoculate stock, ventilate pits for preserving vegetables and anything else the progressive farmer should do. The farmer is shown how to prepare meals, preserve fruit, dress wounds, take batter care of the children and the practice of thrift and economy. Thus far the Booker T. Washington school on WH is has operated in Alabama. In Dallas County alone more than 10,000 were reached.

"Jersey Justice" in Order Now
HOW UNJUST and unreasonable it is on the part of police, detectives and the daily press to assume that all heinous crimes are committed by Negroes is clearly brought out in the confession of Harrison Noel, the twenty-year-old son of a New York white lawyer, that it was he who killed Raymond Pierce, a colored man, stole the taxicab he (Pierce) was driving, kidnapped six-year-old Mary Daly, shot one of his pursuers and finally fired two bullets into the head of the little girl.
PIERCE was shot through the back of the head by Noel, who was in the taxi as a passenger. The kidnapper then moved the dead body of Pierce over to one side, and, taking the wheel himself, drove two miles further on and dumped out the body of the man he had murdered. This was the day before the kidnapping of little Mary Daly.
THE KIDNAPPING took place in broad daylight and was witnessed by playmates of the kidnapped child. Not only this but several persons in the automobile which gave chase saw Noel and must have noticed that he was white. Yet, nearly all the daily newspapers in the city brought out glaring headlines accusing Pierce of the crime and persisted in this belief until his dead body was found. An official autopsy revealed that Pierce had been dead at least three hours before the kidnapping.
YET, the authorities and particularly the newspapers, were reluctant to drop the name of Pierce as having had anything to do with the crime.
IN THE ARREST of the young white man, who had escaped from an insane asylum as recently as June 28, and who was picked up in a demented condition in New York City the next day, the persons at whose door the two murders should be laid are still at large. There are the officials of the Essex County Hospital for Mental Diseases at Overbrook, N. J., from which Noel escaped after he was committed to its charge and who failed to recommit him after he was apprehended. They are indirectly responsible for the forfeited lives of Pierce and Mary Daly and should be held to account. Upon what pretext was he turned over to his family by officials of Bellevue Hospital in this city and not to the insane hospital from which he escaped?
FINDING A COLORED MAN, dead or alive, dark or light complexioned, rich or poor, does not always solve heinous crimes. In fact, it seldom solves them. And now that the actual murderer is in prison and criminal negligence shows clearly in the circumstances, will the law take its course, or will Noel be sent back to the asylum and the real culprits permitted to escape?

The great value of college athletics is that it enforces the lesson of team work. Hence it is of indispensable educational value; for nowhere in the college life is team work so undeniably necessary. The rowing team cannot win unless all men literally "pull together." Here the injunction of Paul, "bear ye one another's burden" and that other that "every man shall bear his own burden." So each member should not only build himself up, but help build up his fellow. So in baseball, no one man can win a game, it takes a team. No football game can ever be won by one man. It's team work it's follow your leader, it's clear headed leadership, with no axes to grind, no jealousies, no favorites, only one goal and that is to win by the rules of the game. The ability of each man is tested, thoroughly tested. He is put to do what he can best do, at the time when it is best for him to do it. Men are shifted, or retired and new men brought in as the needs of the game demand—there is only one thing to be considered—victory.
At the signal the team moves—it's a pretty sight to see eleven football players move as ONE MAN. At the signal they move—to the right, or left, or through the center, or elsewhere. They run, or kick, or throw, as the leader demands. There are no arguments, no holding back, no bickering—eleven men are ONE MAN and ONE MIND and they have victory ahead.
No wonder a surprising number of football and baseball and other athletes have made such splendid headway in life after leaving college—they learned the great lesson of team work.
The great need of the Negro race today is teamwork.
We have too many stars—grandstand players, looking for personal notoriety. Often in a city, to the shame of the church, the pastors of the two largest churches are at "loggerheads," because each thinks he is the greatest man. Often the doctor and lawyer and the teacher and the preacher spend much of their time running down one another. The weakness of Negro education is that the average Negro college graduate won't co-operate unless he is leader. The biggest and most effective organization for racial self-help in a great city died because the leaders got in a fight about the offices.
We need to turn ourselves to the task of service—to the task of making a great team in which all shall do his work to the best of his ability.
We must have more team work or lose.—Christian Recorder.
What Pullman Porters Want
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
Kindly permit me to bring to the attention of your thoughtful readers the fact that the Pullman Company has broken its agreement with the Pullman porters. According to Article 6, entitled "General Principles Which Are Recognized by the Company and Employees in the Adoption of the Plan," the specific wording of which in Section C is: "There shall be no discrimination by the company or by any of its employees on account of membership in any fraternal society or union." This agreement known as the Pullman Company Plan of Employee Representation for District Employees was effective October 1, 1820, and is still operative. The Pullman Company pledged itself not to interfere with the porters or maids if they engaged in union activities. But it has not kept its word.
Since the movement began to organize the porters through a series of articles in The Messenger magazine, the men have been repeatedly called into the office and questioned as to what interest they have in the movement. When a mass meeting was arranged to be held at the Elsa' Auditorium in New York City, Tuesday evening, August 26, at which Mr. W. J. Orr, Special Organizer of the Locomotive Company, spoke, he told the audience charges it they attended the meeting. One of those threatened was an old Pullman porter who had been in the service over 30 years, with only two more years before retirement.
The company, of course, wants to intimidate the men, so to prevent them from forming an organization for, and by themselves. This is downright discrimination against Negro employees of the company, for, the Pullman car conductors, who are white, are organized, and have been since 1918. It is distinctly unfair for the company to oppose the Pullman porters organizing. Every group of workers on the railroad is organized except the porters. The men are organizing to demand more wages, shorter hours, better wages, and better additions. They now have 567.5 workers a month. Wage sadly inadequate to ensure a decent American standard of living. And they are required to make 11,000 miles as a basis of this monthly wage. This causes a porter's hours to trench hard upon the inhuman work-period-burden of nearly 400 hours a month.
They want 240 hours or loss in regular assignment as a basis of their monthly pay, with compensation for overtime. They also want pay for "preparatory time," that is, the work they put in making ready the car to receive the passengers before the train leaves the terminal station. Now, though a porter may report to the yard at 8 p. m. and work a manhole at his own cost, the porter mightengers so as to leave at 7 p. m. his pay does not begin until 7 p. m., the time the train leaves the station. This is obviously unjust. No other group of railroad Pullman Company employees are subject to such an unfair condition.
They also want to abolish the doubling out evil, or the practice of compelling a man who has been on the road two or three days and nights without the proper sleep, needing food and properly to cleanse himself, to go right back out for perhaps another two or three nights' journey, thereby undermining the porter's health and preventing him from giving efficient service to the public for which it pays the Pullman Company. And not the least among their demands is that of being treated like men and not like children. As it is, porters with self-respect and pride dread going into the district offices last they be hailed as "George" by some 16-year-old whippersnapper, though the porter insulted may have been in the service some 40 years or more, and old enough to have great grandchildren older than the messenger boy humilating him. I am sure that public opinion, when properly informed, will rise in its wrath against these notoriously low wages and miserable conditions under which the 12,000 Pullman porters labor, and who produce the only commodity the Pullman Company sells—namely, "SERVICE." But despite the threats of the company, the men are happily rallying to the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Parters, which was organized at the above named mass meeting.
Very truly yours.

The Negro and the Finest
The Negro and the Finest
By E. E. HART Psychologist for the New York Police Department AT THE gateway to the greatest of Negro cities that upper Harlem colony which is famous the world over as the community of promise for the colored man—stands a figure emblematic of this city within a city. That gateway is the lively four corners at Lenox avenue and 135th street — the crossing of the Negro Broadway and Main street. Here focus the commercial, political, social and amusement interests of 200,000 colored people. At the exact center, conspicuous in the interlacing motor streams, stands that emblematic figure, commander of the traffic and of the gateway, a colored policeman.
Towering above the throngs afoot he is the emblem at once of the Negro capital behind him and of the prominence the colored people of New York have attained. This man is a symbol, too, of the things that have enabled the Negroes of New York to so progress that word of their prosperity has spread to the dark-skinned peoples the world around.
He is a symbol of the civic recognition of the Negro by the present city administration, a recognition that has been responsible for the greater part of the colored man's progress in Harlem. He is, too, a symbol of a new day in New York, a day of friendly co-operation between whites and blacks without the friction and strife that marked past times.
Especially is he a symbol of the thing that has most concretely proved, to both whites and blacks that fair play and equality in civic positions are the order of the day. This colored man, first of his race to be given such a responsible and conspicuous position, studies the regard and care that have been shown for his race by the Police Department under the administration of Commissioner Enright. His appointment to this key position is typical of the whole treatment of his race by the present Commissioner, who in six years has advanced the interest of the colored man five or six times as much as had all preceding police administrations together in half a century.
It has been Commissioner Enright who has given the colored people of New York, through their representatives on the police force, real opportunities to show their capacity as public officials and citizens in the mass. In no other time in New York and in no other city at any time have so many colored men been put in the position to demonstrate the race's worthiness in conspicuous public service. Here and today on the New York force the colored people have been given the greatest opportunity they have ever had anywhere. They are being given absolutely equal opportunities with everyone else. Promotion and prestige are theirs for the winning in free competition with men of all the other races and nationalities that make up the "finest."
The figures tell the story quickly. In fifty years up to 1918 appointments of colored men to the police had been so few that at the end of '18 there were just three of them in the blue uniforms. In six years since then Commissioner Enright has appointed fifteen times that number. Worked out in figures, Commissioner Enright has done for the colored race each year just fifty times as much as the average of preceding administrations back to the Civil War.
Each year since 1920 he has appointed more men than were appointed in fifty years before. He has been the first Commissioner to give the colored man real recognition; the first to promote members of that race to the rank of first grade detective; the first to give departmental commendation to Negro policemen; the first to give them conspicuous and vital duties both in traffic and in detective work, the first to appoint a colored patrolwoman. He has been the first to really recognize the worth and bravery of the colored citizen in public service; the first to appreciate the Negro's devotion to duty and patriotic desire to serve the people.
Above and beyond all this, however, Commissioner Enright has achieved a greater and better thing. In pursuance of his general objective of establishing and maintaining complete peace in the city he provided for the colored people the protection they had sometimes lacked and also the guard that was needed to prevent the flaring up of race difficulties. These have all been common because of the conflict he from the day of his invasion to power they vanished. In almost every other large city after the war there were eruptions of trouble—but in New York, none. The new Commissioner saw to that.
This amounted to civic recognition of the equality of the colored people in the body politic. Thus he was the first city officer of the coloured people in the sun. This accomplishment was far greater than the giving of places on the force to the colored men how

much greater can scarcely be estimated. The appointment of colored men on the force affected a few hundreds; the bettering of the condition of the whole colored community under the peace that Enright maintained here had direct effect on a quarter of a million persons. Never were the blessings of peace more strikingly manifest. Under previous administrations the colored people of the city had much cause for anxiety. Their white neighbors were too uneasy; agitators were busy in both communities stirring up bad blood. There was tension and distrust, occasionally warfare. But that was before 1918.
The story of today is one of peace that has ceased to need guarding. In Harlem, on Union Hill and in Brooklyn, Jamaica and Corona the colored communities dwell at peace with their white neighbors; in fact, they are on an entirely friendly footing. The firebrands and the shouters about the color line on both sides of the fence have been taught that their day is done in New York—that a Police Commissioner is in office who will have none of their trouble-making. So their respective races, having nothing against each other in reality have come to an accord that is approved by all, and most of all by the Police Commissioner.
So here we have whites and blacks dwelling side by side in peace; a healthy moral tone in the Negro community; success both financially and socially attributed to the civic recognition that has been given the Negro community the right's decree that the colored man should be treated precisely as all others.
It has not been without careful thought and much planning that all this has been achieved. Commissioner Enright has held many conferences with representatives of the colored people, preachers, political leaders, editors and educators, and has harkened to all of them with such good effect that he has the whole-hearted support of these men in his efforts to better the relations between the races and wipe out even from the slates of memory the old friction. They know that he has been sincerely and strongly in sympathy with all their efforts at the betterment of the Negro community.
What he has done in the way of appointment and preferment of colored men within the Police Department has been partly told. It has been shown that he has done more than had dozens of his predecessors in recognizing the position of the colored citizens in the city. For the same reasons he has done all that has been practically possible for the colored member of the force in the way of promotion and distinction. It has been only when positive police reasons have
A commission appointed by the British government to inquire into the matter of native education in Southern Rhodesia has words of commendation for the medical training given in Old Umtail and in Mutambra by missionaries of the Methodist Episcopal Church. One of their recommendations is that government financial aid be given to work of this character.
This medical work—especially the training of native nurses—has been carried out for 15 years by Miss Eliz. Ejbork.and, of Sweden, a graduate nurse working under the Bonaparte Foreign Missions. It was to this same work that the late Dr. Samuel Gurney gave 20 years of service. The report of the Commission is in part as follows:
"At Nutambra and Old Umtall the work of the trained, missionary nurses is hard to over-estimate. Although at the former station no definite training of nurses is undertaken, much useful knowledge is imparted. We were told of the daughter of a local chief who in an emergency, set a broken arm without help. The training of native
stood in the way that any colored man has failed of preferment. The race question has never entered into any of his acts; the colored men have been promoted, just as their white brothers have been, on their merits. This square deal policy involves not only the promotion of the colored officers on some of their punishment on the same basis as the whites. They are all on a par with the Commissioner.
Colored men have failed to pass the entrance examinations, for the departments, just as hundreds of whites have failed. Colored men have failed to qualify in the Police Academy, just as whites have failed. Colored men have failed of promotion just as whites have failed. Colored men have been tried and punished for derelictions just as have whites. Colored men have been transferred just like white officers, either because they were needed in the new posts or because they asked for the transfer, or because they were thought undesirable in their old positions. These three causes, one or all, may be covered by the well-worn explanations of a transfer, "for the good of the service."
Investigation shows that in proportion to their number colored men have been punished less than the average of the whites.
The percentage of colored men who fail to pass civil service tests for policemen is just about the same as that of their white competitors. In the last examination 540 failed out of 1,908 who took the examination. So probably one-fourth of the Negroes failed as well as one-fourth of the whites. As no record is kept of the applicants by races exact figures are not available. This condition probably contains also in the promotional examinations within the department
Following these promotional examinations which are conducted entirely by the Civil Service Commission and in which the Police Department has no say, the Police Commissioner is called upon to pick from the certified lists the men who have demonstrated in their police work the best police conduct and the best character. Naturally those against whom complaints have been made suffer in these police comparisons.
In a recent promotion of patrolmen to be sergeants it was necessary for the Commissioner, for police reasons, to pass over several men whom he could not promote. Several white patrolmen and one Negro patrolman, Samuel J. Battle, were not promoted. Battle only a short time before had been transferred to Canarsie from work in the Special Service Division, where he had been given a fine opportunity to benefit his people by helping to stamp out liquor selling and policy playing in Harlem. Each of these men of both races were passed over by the Commissioner for good police reasons.
How much Commissioner Enright must have regretted this necessary discipline is shown by his record in honoring colored policemen, two of whom are now members of the Honor Legion of the department. a body of men everyone of whom proudly wears the stars of recommendation or the medals of higher departmental honors. The men who have received commendations are Patrolmen Jasper Rhodes and Edward Green, both for brave arrests of hold-up men. Rhodes was honored as recently as March 18 of this year. They are two of the three men, out of the 52 colored men and women who have been on the force who were appointed before Commissioner Enright took command.
nurses at old Umtail is an interesting feature. Five hundred confidences have taken place in the little hospital, and a native nurse was proficient enough to carry on uninterrupted work for six months during the European nurse's recent absence in Europe. The record of cases of all sorts runs into thousands. Eighteen girls are said to have had thorough training. One hundred and fifty have had trainees of the two grave and deleterious native fallacies are shown to have been dispatched locally through demonstrations, and the general educative value of the work is undoubted.
"After a visit to this hospital the Chief Native Commissioner observed of the Matron, 'She is most sympathetic, with the result that a large number of native patients other than those connected with the Missions ask her aid. This is encouraging, and as an educative factor such hospitals will be of the greatest benefit.' "In confirmation of the universal opinion of missionaries we would quote the words of the Medical Director: 'It is very desirable to teach native

ASAN inspiration to youth and a guidepost to the mature I know of no character in American history more to be preferred than Abraham Lincoln. His life is a striking example of sheer grit, rugged honesty, good humor and sensible ambition. He exemplified the best traditions of strict integrity, uncontaminated honor, abiding faith in God and a humane attitude toward man. It is always provocative of thought to turn to the life of a good man and note how he met his difficulties and managed his destiny.
Born of humble parentage, reared in a wilderness, a child of toil, Lincoln was deterred by no obstacles. He strove hard to get an education, studied law and eventually attained the Presidency. With a sure and fearless hand he guided the nation through the most critical period of its history, proving himself not only a great moral leader, but an equally great statesman. Without personal beauty and somewhat awkward, he was loved and trusted because of his will-power, kindly disposition and knowledge of human nature. He was never swayed by passion or prejudice; he never juggled with his ideals when the going was rough and tried his soul. When occasion demanded he was resolute and his personal courage could not be questioned. He was a deeply religious man. It is a profoundly appealing spectacle to see him kneeling in prayer, imploring Divine guidance, through the dark days of the Civil War. It is moving, indeed, to witness his grief over the lost love when the girl to whom he was betrothed passed away. This was a hard blow and affected him to the imminent fibre of his being.
Lincoln knew men and they rejoiced to know him. It requires patience and firmness to handle men and wield authority. Life and success will not be servants to the weak and ignorant. The crises of destiny, whether of a nation or individual, can only be met by faith, vision, knowledge and tolerance. From the life of Lincoln we can learn many vivid lessons that will wisely counsel those who need inspiration and comfort. I recommend every reader of this to read a good biography of his career, and read it slowly and thoughtfully. Abraham Lincoln was a heroic figure, entitled to loving remembrance and the homage of the centuries. Measured critically, he stands forth clear-cut and commanding — a great man. He was true to the best that was in him and that best was memorably worthy. Neither the American Republic nor the nations of the world shall let his memory dim.

of sufficient importance to recommend that the Government should contribute to wards suitable hospital accommodation and equipment, particularly in the case of such approved institutions."
"It is clear to us that the missionaries are willing to be made use of, but it is also clear that it is unreasonable to expect them to bear the whole expense of advancement on medical lines. Further, the missions are unable to find the money.
"It is clear that through ignorance and superstition there is grave and unnecessary suffering among the natives. It is equally clear that to place medical facilities within the reach of all is impracticable.
"There is no reason, however, why knowledge of hygiene, of causation of disease, of preventative and curative measures should not go hand in hand, educatively, with religious, moral, scholastic and industrial training.
"Not only will the imparting of such knowledge result in improved health and better conditions of life, but a highly efficient weapon will have been forged with which to combat witchcraft.

(3) The Mission should receive a grant of £10 per annum in respect of each native girl receiving approved training as a nurse.

The Wonders of African Peoples
Modern speculative masonry has made what it calls secrets, but none of them are what were called secrets among the ancient Africans who practiced the mystic craft ages before England founded her York rite and France her Grand Orient. The Africans had secrets both operative and speculative which to day are either lost or still kept secret. What sort of cement was it they used that became harder than the stones it held together? What kind of tools did they use by which they carved the hardest granite as though it was mere chalk? How did they raise stones weighing 50 to 100 tones, or place capitals on the tops of pillars that weighed as much as the pillars themselves? What did the orientation of their buildings mean to them and how to set them so perfect that there is not the error of an inch? How did they make stone doors that moved to a touch as light as a feather and hide secret chambers so that none could find them except those who made them? What were their secrets of making colors that retained their brightness after 5,000 years.
These are but a few of the secrets which were known to ancient African masons and if they could know that modern pale-skinned men claim to have them, they would turn over in their graves and haunt Amenhotep II monuments alone speak and their speech is the speech of silence.
