Henry Lincoln
Johnson
THE inimitable Henry Lincoln Johnson, Republican National Committeeman from Georgia, and gladiator, for decade over decade, in the arena of national, racial and interracial politics, has answered his Master's call and left the world for the peace that knows no ending. "Linc," as he was popularly known by both friend and foe, was a political character, the model of whose counterpart has been lost amid these points of political strife. A skilled orator, a keen logician, an analyzer of men, and a man of uncanny foresight, Colonel Johnson was one of the most picturesque figures in American political and professional life has ever had. As a champion of the cause of the meek and lowly, either in or out of court, the deceased Georgian had but few equals; and as a consoler of the troubled "Linc" was loved the country over by those whom he had so often shown the silver lining of their clouds.

II. MERELY because of prejudice, a Negro tenant can be made to move out of a city block, upon the same theory he can be made to move out of that city, out of that state, out of that country, leaving naught but dozens of that time-honored principle that a man's home is his castle. Visionary though it may seem, this is just exactly what could continually happen to everyone of us, who, like Samuel A Browne, of Staten Island, N. Y., or Harry T. Pratt, of Baltimore, Md., as well as countless others, might seek to establish homes in accordance with the individual tastes and desires of a man's own choice.
This type of prejudice, just like the bootlegging game, laughs at both law and all the ethics of intelligent society.
Even as we go to press word comes from Detroit of another race riot, "caused," says the United (white) Press, "by the moving of a Negro family into a white neighborhood."

FUNERAL OF REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEEMAN HELD MONDAY IN CAPITAL
Postmaster General New, Secretary of Labor Davis and Senator Butler Pay Tribute to Him
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.—Funeral services over the remains of Henry Lincoln Johnson, who was for nearly twenty-five years an outstanding political leader, both in his home state and the nation, were held Monday from the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, attended by hundreds of men and women prominent in political and fraternal life.
Johnson died at 12:30 o'clock Thursday morning at Freedmen's Hospital, where he was taken after a stroke of apoplexy suffered at his home, 1461 S street, Sunday evening.
Mr. Johnson never regained consciousness following one stroke. His widow and two sons and a friend of the family were with him at the time. He was 55 years old, have been born at Atlanta
Johnson rose from poverty in Georgia, where he was born in reconstruction days, to a position of great influence. No man in recent years outranked him in political cunning and power. He held sway in Georgia when race leaders in other southern states were eliminated from the councils of the Republican party and the political arena. All efforts to oust him as leader of the G. O. P. forces of Georgia failed.

221 West 141st street, was shot by
an unknown man from West 133d
street early yesterday morning.
Detectives from the 135th street
station were rushed to the Harlem
Hospital about 3 a.m. when the
authorities were informed that a
man had been seriously wounded.

of the shooting had been over a
woman. When the man was
frowned to face Thompson in a

port given out at the hospital.
Reduce Bail of Chauffeur to $1000
The bail of Cecile Chambers, 107 West 142d street, a taxi driver, who is charged with assault, was reduced from $3,500 to $1,000 when he was rearranged in the Washington Helights Court before Magistrate MoQuada this morning. Chambers is being held on the ground that he caused a fire engine to jump the sidewalk on the southeast corner of 143d street and Seventh avenue to prevent colliding with the taxicab driven by him and caused the fire engine to almost crush little Charles Wilson, 267 West 144th street, to death last Sunday afternoon.
A certificate issued by the Harlem Hospital revealed the serious condition the child was in and stated that it would be at least six weeks before he could appear in court. For that reason, Magistrate McQuade granted the plea of Attorney Richard L. Cunningham, counselor for the defendant, to release the accused man on a $1,000 bond.
man to hold this position is Mrs. Georgia S. Williams of Savannah, Ga., who succeeds, temporarily, to the seat made vacant by the death of Henry Lincoln Johnson. Mrs. Williams will hold the post until the State Republican Executive Committee names Johnson's successor, who will serve until the State Republican Convention next April. It is said that Johnson's death has created a complicated situation in Republican affairs in Georgia. The party is said to be badly split into factions, whose alliances are constantly changing, and a heated scramble is said to be in prospect for the seat made vacant by Johnson's death.
UNABLE TO SUPPORT THEM, SAYS MOTHER
Left Brood With Woman and Failed to Return Decision Reserved Pending Investigation
When the mother of four little children failed to return for them the next day after promising to come back within two hours. Mrs. Mary Thomas, 237 West 143d street, who had been given S2 to take care of the children for two hours, turned them over to children's welfare officers at the West 135th street police station last Wednesday.
The mother, Mrs. Louise Reed, who gave her address as 04 West 143d street, was held in $1,000 bail on a charge of alandomment when she was arraigned before Magistrate McGuade in the Washington Heights Court, Monday morning.
Mrs. Thomas said that the mother of the children brought them to her about 1 o'clock in the afternoon, about two weeks ago, and asked her to care for them until she returned. She said that she did not become uneasy about the woman until the next morning when she didn't return. After notifying the police and taking the children to the station, she went to a place where the woman said that she would be, but failed to find out anything of her whereabouts.
Almost five days later Mrs Thomas said that she met Mrs Reed on the street. When she was informed that her children had been taken to the police station, she rushed away, pretending that she was going to the station. Special Police Officer Keane, who was assigned to the case, later found her and placed her under arrest. When the officer took the stand, he testified that the woman told him that she had been without any resources to support the infants since her husband had been sentenced to the state prison. When Magistrate McQuade asked the woman whether or not she wished to testify, she began to cry. A few minutes later the judge hurled the same question and the woman whispered that she had tried hard to support the children and that she had taken care of them for three years. To give the authorities an opportunity to investigate the condition of the woman the court withheld its decision and held Mrs. Reed in bail for further examination.

Bishop Scores Stupid Pastors
Tells M. E. Conference Every Preacher Should Keep Abreast of Age
NEWPORT, Ky. Sept. 14—Bishop W. F. McDowell, white of Washington, told the Kentucky conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church here today that "ministers have no right to be religiously commonplace." "Gospel preaching is the biggest preaching in the world and requires intellectual and earnest effort," he said. "Ministers have no conception of the gospel in the turbulent age, and preachers do not understand the word of Jesus Christ because they can repeat a few words committed to memory. "I read hundreds of books a year, and the supreme intellectual achievement is to keep able to grasp and preach the gospel. To preach the gospel intelligently requires understanding of the age in which we live." The bishop also declared that "too many country brethren try to be preachers in city churches, and that is one of the troubles with the church today. Some of the country brothers should go back to the country. There is no use to try to fool ourselves. Some preachers could leave their brain right out in a draught, and never catch cold."
Gambling Brawl Ends in Shooting
A man who gave his name as Thomas Resnick, 34, and said that he had just arrived here from North Carolina was grazed by a bullet fired by an unknown man following an argument between the two Wednesday night. The men were believed to have been gambling. Resnick was taken to Harlem Hospital by Detective McDonald of the 123d street station, who was summoned to come to a room at 215d Seventh avenue after the shooting. The bullets inflicted only flesh wounds, and the victim's condition was reported not to be serious.

Talking, Meets Pair Loses $600 Savings
Miss Peterson had drawn the money, which represented the savings of many years, from the Mutual Bank of Roseville. Instead of taking a Market Line bus and transferring to a Montclair trolley car at Bloomfield and Roseville avenues, she decided to save the five cents and walk the distance, about a mile. She started down Park avenue, across Branch Brook Park. As she reached Parker street, she told the police, two men stopped alongside of her, and threatening her with death if she made an outcry, grabbed the handbag in which she had the money and fled. Despite the threats, the woman raised a cry for help, but the men made her escape.

STANDARD LIFE INSUR. COMPANY RETRIEVED
一
St. Louis Underwriters to Take Over Entire Business of Atlanta Company
Announcement has just been made from the offices of the St. Louis Underwriters' Corporation, 2803 Fine boulevard, that contracts were signed this week, whereby the Standard Life Insurance Company, of Atlanta, Ga., becomes the property of this group of St. Louis business men, thereby bringing back to Negroes this organization which was their pride. It is understood that the business is to be turned over to the corporation on or about Oct. 1, 1923.
The deal represents approximately $24,000,000 worth of insurance in force. Together with the business comes assets of close to $3,000,000 and a monthly income of close to $100,000. The transfer is made, including good-will, the entire agency organization and clerical forces of the home office branch offices in thirteen States. The St. Louis Underwriters' Corporation, which is responsible for the redemption of the Standard Life, was founded by the president, who was formerly the agent of the Old Standard Life Insurance Company, and who cherished the hope of being instrumental in bringing this gem back to the colored people.
It will be remembered that, at the time the Standard Life Insurance Company passed into the hands of the Southern Life., a promise was made by Mr. Will G. Harris, president of the Southern Insurance Company, agreeing to sell the company back to any group of reputable Negroes within the next ten years. Several of the officers of the St. Louis Underwriters' Corporation, particularly the president, had been instrumental in disposing of a large amount of stock and insurance of the Standard Life, and were naturally interested in its salvation. With this in view, Mr. Harris was approached and, after several conferences in Nashville and St. Louis, the deal was finally consummated.
Among the personnel of the corporation are leading business and professional men. The officers and directors are as follows: Wm O. McMabon, president; W. H Mosby, secretary; A. C. Maclin treasurer; R. F. Crenshaw, C. A. Pitman, Dr. T. J. Jackson, Dr. C. M. Powell, J. E. Mitchell, Dr. R. C. Huskell, M. L. Sanford, L. S. Williams, Dr. S. P. Stafford, Rev. B. P. Abbott, Dr. H. B. McMechen, Prof. J. H. Coieman, Dr. Wm. J. Thompkins, Willese Moseley, and Attorney Jos. L. M. McLemore, counsel.
White Woman and Two Men Taken in Raid
Charged with violating the narcotic laws, a young white woman who gave her name as Grace Malloy. 22.11 West 108th street, and two colored men who gave their names as Henry Brown, 55.219 West 124th street, and Zeb Hill of the same address, and arraigned before Magistrate Smith in the Heights Court and were held in 550 ball each for further hearing Thursday morning. The trio were arrested Wednesday at 129th street address by detective attached to the Narcotic Squad who spoke into the room where their said they found them smoking an opium pipe.
The detectives also claim that they found several layouts of opium and powder they thought to be heroin in the apartment.

SHELVEPORT, La. Sept. 14.—An investigation into the origin of the big fire which swept the Allendale residential section Friday night night destroying scores of Nogro homes, inflicting a property loss variously estimated from $1,600,000 to $1,750,000, wiping out homes and leaving a 1,200 home less, has been under way since the night of the confaguration, it was learned Saturday from the Department of Public Safety.
Police Commissioner Stringfellow is reported as saying there is a grave possibility of two or more arrests being made in connection with the fire within the course of a few days. Several suspects are under close observation by the department and arrests are expected any time.
N. J. Has Another Kidnapping Case
Man With Police Record Is Held for Grand
Coincidentally with the clearing up of the Mary Daly kidnapping and murder by Harrison Noel, white, who also killed Raymond Pierce, the latter at first believed to be implicated in the crime, Lawrence Wright; of Paterson, was taken in custody and charged with kidnapping a five-year-old child. Paterson authorities claim that Wright confessed his gift, but the person claims the girl's guardian knew him with him. Conrad For, a white chauffeur, has also been questioned by police in connection with the case. Wright, who police claim has a record, is being held without bail for the Grand Jury.
No Knowledge of Opium Layout in Her Home
Mrs. Burchie Malloney, popularly known as the "Babe Ruth" of Harlem, 249 West 131st street; was exonerated on a charge of violating the narcotic laws when she appeared in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning. Acting upon the tip of a police stool pigeon" officers attached to Special Narcotic Squad raided the home of Mrs. alloney on October 1. She pleaded with a lay out of opium was found under the bathroom tub and was held in $2,500 bail. She pleaded not guilty and declared that she was ignorant of the presence of the drugs.
Under cross-examination by Attorney W. Stanton, counsellor for the defendant, it was brought out that the floor directly under the bath tub had been ripped up and that the optium layout had been concealed there for a long period of time. Counsellor Stanton pointed out that the cobwebs on the pipe disclosed that it had not been used recently. Magistrate McQuade discharged the accused woman.
Swimming in the East River of East 57th Street a day last week, Henry B. Ryder, twenty-nine, a chauffeur employed by Mrs. Anna Bruns of No. 29 Sutton Place, was drowned.
Ryder, swimming with others, offered to show a new kind of dive. He mounted the springboard and plunged into the river. Thinking him in distress, lifeguards went to his assistance, but were waved aside with the assurance that he was all right. The guards started for shore, and looking back, saw Ryder sink.

The contest between Lindsey and Graham was decided in favor of Lindsey by a margin of less than 100 votes.

Harlem Citizens to Hear First-Hand Story of Effort to Force Browne to Give Up Home
Since the white neighbors of Samuel A. Browne, a postman, 67 Fairview avenue, West Brighton, Staten Island, have issued death threats and demolished a part of the property, a mass meeting to discuss the outrageous condition will be held at Abyssinia Baptist Church Sunday afternoon.
The Browne family has been continually annoyed by letters signed "K. K. K." since they refused to sell their home in West New Brighton, following the incident of Musco M.

It began the issuance of policies with over a quarter of a million dollars of applications in its files. New business is coming in at a rapid and steady rate and President Pace states that the end of the year will show very satisfactory results in the amount of insurance written.
The company is issuing a series of policy contracts embracing new and liberal provisions to the insured. Among the most modern provision is the automatic premium loan, which after three years

Mr. Browne received the following letter Wednesday:

"The little protection you have now will prove a huge joke, as you each "Nigger" Stann Island, Are you aware of that? Apparently you are not, and neither is your District Attorney. He, too, will find out.
"Shortly now you can sell out as a profit to your neighbor, thus adding to the revenge you have already obtained. You can then laugh, at him. Hence now is the time to get out and—fast.

In addition to the 31 days of grace, if the insured should still fail to pay the premium, the premium automatically becomes a loan against the cash surrender value and the policy is kept in force and the insured is protected. Another unusual feature, never before issued by any other company, is the total and permanent disability feature, in which the Northeastern in addition to paying the payment before pre-payment, with the insurance company disabled, also settles the claim in full six months after proof of such disability is received.

"While hall is discretionary in murder cases, I do not think any judge will release these prisoners before trial, and this office opposes any such move."
Mr. Moll pointed out that in a first degree murder trial the jury may legally return a verdict of murder in any degree or man-slaughter.

A mass meeting of white citizens living in the vicinity of Davis Park held Thursday evening in Amity Hall, 5275 Amity Avenue. The meeting was called by officers of the Waterworks Park Association with the declared intention of asking official action that will prevent another outbreak of the race feeling in this section. Hochberg, who was wounded in the chest by the fire, will recover, according to Receiving Hospital physicians.

George P. Moore Returning Here With New Batch of Mittmen for Sensational Winter Campaign
Popular Manager Who Made Things Hum Here Not So Very Long Ago Will Arrive in Gotham After Going to California to Get His Stable Together
Among both white and colored people in the boxing game in this city the news of the early return of George P. Moore was received with joy a few weeks ago when the letter from the popular fight manager appeared in these columns announcing plans for the future that will give this part of the country an opportunity to glimpse some of the western stars now making history.
Drake and Walker to Appear for Popular Metropolitan Social Club at Manhattan Casino
Invitations Out for the Big Affair, Which Will Take Place on the Night of Oct. 9, and Which Promises to Surpass Everything Previously Staged by the "Mets"
The boys of the Metropolitan Social Club are making every effort to hit old Gotham with something entirely out of the ordinary on the night of Oct. 9 at Manhattan Casino when they offer their opening dance of the season, which bids fair to be a mighty busy one. The "Mets" need no introduction at our hands at this time. They are well known in Greater New York and New Jersey and they have built a reputation in the past which easily leaves them among the foremost staging their amusement affairs during the fall and winter months.

Word received from Mr. Moore this week brings the information that he will be in New York the latter part of October or the early part of November. Danny Edwards, who has never left the management of this energetic manager, continues to make good after a long rest, and had the satisfaction of witnessing the first run-out from meeting him of Frankie Genuro. Moore tried to arrange a match between Edwards and Genuro for Labor Day, but Genuro, no doubt still pining after his sensational defeat not very long ago, refused to meet Edwards, who would most unlucky push. Frankie another step backwards. Before returning to New York Mr. Moore will make a quick trip to the coast to line up his stable of boxers. Among the most promising in the stable is Chester Dienero, one of the best looking heavyweight boxers now in the light.
This Impuree has had 12 fighters losing one decision, winning eight by the knockout route, and three draws, which is splendid for a newcomer and which will give him quick consideration the moment he hits New York. There will be other fighters of note in the sections where they have been who will come here under the guidance of George Moore. We hope that plans will be made to bring this manager to the 15th Infantry Army, where he can again arrange the staging of hours at the new and spacious home of the famous half fighters.
In a personal communication to the writer recently, he asked to be remembered to its many friends in Glencoe, New York and New Jersey, these Johns will arrive from now on, tales of developments in the activities of the fight manager who came to New York, some months, age and won more friends in a week than any man in his position, black or white, even in a year.
Fight club managers wishing to get in touch with Mr. Moore can write to him to the Golden West Hotel, Portland, Ore. where he will be until the end of the present month, from which place he will head direct for New York accompanied by his lawyers who will most likely

Backed by some of the finest young men in the city, they have done everything in their power to give clean, wholesome and entertaining affairs, and the success which they gained was the natural reward of those willing to do the right thing in behalf of an ever-patient public.
For the Oct. 9 affair the boys have engaged Drake and Walker a far-famed orchestra to supply the music, and with other features which few can afford to miss, the night should be a big one for amusement seakers. It must not be forgotten that the ladies are also a great help to the "Metrs" for the club is made up of both sexes and spoke of "the boys" because of the fact that in the past we always had to do business for the club through male members.

Hall Easily Outpoints Manty at Commonwealth
Joe Hall. Buffalo lightweight, tall little trouble in winning from Charlie Manty, of New Bedford, last week in the feature ten-round bout at the Commonwealth S. C. After getting off to a poor start in the first three rounds, Hall pulled himself together and fought a clever battle that was too much for his New England rival.
Manty started out like a certain winner, using plenty of speed and catching Hall with numerous letters to the head. After the fourth round, however, Hall started a short right uppercase, going that clicked his rival's teeth a number of times, and also exhibited a short left to the body that gave Many considerable trouble.
In the sixth round. Hall landed a hard left that cut. Marty's right car and although his seconds worked on it, it bled intermittently for the rest of the way. Marty appeared to tlee in the last two rounds and Hall won much as he pleased. Marty tipped the beacon at 134 pounds, one less than his rival.

As it has been definitely decided that New York will not be represented in the world's series this season, plans are being made for an interracial series of games between an all-star white and all-star colored aggregation. Plans are being perfected by James J. Keenan for the colored team and his idea is to have the series played the first or second week in October. In addition to three or four Lincoln Giants players, the colored team will probably have such well-known stars as John Henry Lloyd, Oscar Charles

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 16, 1925 _
Connie Mack's Mascots
Cornelius McGillcuddy, popu-
tarly known as Connie Mack,
manager of the Philadelphia
basebal! team in the American
League, which haa been a stren-
uous pennant contender this
stagon, has added two colored
boys to his staff, as mascots for
hia fasttraveling Athletics. This
is the most radical move any
major league manager has made
in the annals of baseball, a!-
though no one has forgotten the
affection manifested by the New
York Giants at the bier of their
deceased Negro trainer; nor
can the fair mindedness of
John J. McGraw be ignored
when he sald that he could pick
a team of colored . baseball
players which could defeat the
pennant winner in either major
league. Connie Mack, however,
has actually performed.-the im:
poss'ble by conferring upon two
little cotored boys the unadutt-
erated mascotship of his team.
Mascots, of course, whether
dlack, brown or green, cannot
change the pleying qualities of
any team, Tney can, however,
slowly change the attitude cf
that part of the blundersoine

Do You Recall the People on This Page?
Again We Are Traveling Down the Scented Path Known as Memory Lane
And Bringing Back With Fond Recollections Those of Bygone Years Who Contributed Their Share Towards the Amusement and Entertainment of Many Thousands
Today we took from the stalk the last gladioli. The cannas are still in bloom, to say nothing of the sage, which will remain red until the last days of fall, and now we have the sweet scent from the tuberose to lend inspiration to these lines which again take us down that famous path known as "Memory Lane."
SIX
Give a look at the pictures on this page and recall with what satisfaction we enjoyed, the things they did for our amusement and entertainment in the past. Some of them have passed to the Great Beyond; others are still with us, but in other callings.
Some have trod the path and know nothing of pain and sorrow, while others have drained the cut of disappointment and would steer a different course did it rest with them to return "Down Memory Lane" and start again on life's course.
Among the pictures that carry an especial appeal to us on this page is that of Edward C. Brown, Philadelphia banker and estate operator, who recently suffered from the disaster of the failure of the Lafayette and Stevens' Bank. As we recall Mr. Brown as we knew him when he came here and took over the Lafayette Theatre, something within us swells up with sorrow that fate should have denit him such a severe blow.
Here was a man who came into the theatrical world with high ideals and hopes for lifting the profession to greater heights through the activities of their own people that he had learned. The teacher of the race can be laid the failure of Edward C. Brown to win the success he had hoped for as an operator of rare theatres and a promoter of shows by our people.
The Lafayette Theatre has never enjoyed such splendid patronage as in the early days of the drama. While it is true musical comedy shows have packed the house from time to time, few offerings managed to hold the boards and draw consecutive crowds as did the drama in the days of the Quality Amusement Corporation and the early days of the same company under Edward C. Brown. It is almost, with despair that we look, back down "Memory Lane" to the days of the Brown management. Lester Walton came back at that time as manager of the Lafayette and brought with him a certain dignity and intelligence that has never been equalled, far less surpassed. True, some of us thought Lester Walton a mighty hard man to approach, but after all is said and done, time has shown better than anything else that Walton maintained an atmosphere at this theatre which equalled that of any Broadway house.
We look back with despair to his time because we realize better now than at any other time the loss accruing to our people for their lack of that full support which would have kept us in control of the Lafayette. Things of lesser worth after Walton's departure seemed to find favor for a time, and it is no credit to us as a race that we failed to rise to the opportunity for maintaining a house that would have been the home for the true expression of Negro art along theatrical lines. Walton earlier in his career had courageously backed Mama by Laying the all fatal "Darkydom" he had done in his zeal to give our people the best to be obtained; he was the first to pay big money to a race artist when he brought Mme. Siseretta Jones to the Lafayette.
We hope those readers of the Amsterdam News reading our constant plea for the fulfilling of a promise for a Negro manager again in Harlem will understand that it was no fault of Walton's that he was forced to leave this house after it failed to continue to attract thousands. Certain white people in the amusement world in the community have been pointing to Walton as an instance of the impossibility of a Negro manager to win success at a colored theater here, but like in most of the things these same people advance in their arguments where we as a race are concerned they are unfair.
We know one white manager who has been maintained at a certain house under three different ownerships, one of them going out under cover of darkness and leaving behind debts which should have been paid. What about the failures during the incumbency of this man? If failure met the efforts of Walton it was of the most dignified kind and he lost nothing with the better class of his people. Yes. we are strolling down Memory Lane" and the happy moments must be coupled with those pt so happy.

Whitney and Tutt in Fine Opening at the Orpheum Theatre, Newark, N. J.
Tabloid Led by Well-Known Performers Now on Their Way to Fill Fall and Winter Dates
Messrs. Whitney and Tutt, in their newest tabloid offering, which was whipped into shape at Lafayette Theatre last week, had a fine opening at the Orpheum Theatre. Newark, N. J., of which Leigh Whipper is manager, Monday of this week.
As the majority of the newspaper men in these parts seem to refuse to enter the house once so close to us to, get information for their readers, it was not generally known until the latter part of the week that these two popular boys were breaking in their new offering right here in Harlem.
New Jersey will get the benefit of their new tab, for having spent a week in working it in here they are all set, and it was no surprise to us to learn that they got off to a splendid start at the only big house in this part of the country playing shows of this kind, and being managed by a colored man. Whitney and Tutt succeeded in assembling a fine little company and, as in the past, they should meet with favor wherever they appear. They are billed for Baltimore at the conclusion of the engagement and will not, rumor says, appear in Philadelphia until the later part of the season. They are the company besides Whitney and Tutt in Mabel Ridley, Arlyne Brooks, Frank Watt, Joseph Purnell, Charles Hawkins, Baynard Whitney, Ida Forsyne and the "bronzed beauty chorus," which includes Robbie Lee Fredericks, Janet White, Hilda Bendisher, Julia Wilbur, Tom Ridley, Milnic Gentle and Ruby Williams. Cuney Connor is the director.
A certain love and appreciation for Whitney and Tutt is maintained here in New York because of their early attempts to give their people shows out of the ordinary. Looking back over the period which first saw them in this part of the country, we can recall many offerings which came to the Lafayette in the early days and which drew big houses at every performance. What Whitney and Tutt had to offer drew as fine as anything that has ever gone into the Lafayette, and some day we hope to see them in another big show, but this time in the proposed theatre yet to be built and which is being spoken of at this time

Fletcher Henderson and His Orchestra Making First Appearance at the Renaissance Casino
Will Also Make Their Last All-Night Entertaining Stand at the Above Hall in October—Stage All Set to Give Them a Royal Welcome Home on Sept. 27
Considering the continued popularity of Fletcher Henderson and his musicians it certainly must be considered a wise move on the part of those who saw the possibilities and grabbed Henderson for his first big appearance in the city after his absence during the summer when he was kept busy entertaining the wealthy at their summer resorts.
THE FAMILY OF THE WESTERN WESTERN WESTERN
DOST REMEMBER WHEN Brown and DeMont First Arrived in These Parts and as Vaudevillians Helped to Turn 'Em Away at Every Theatre in Which They Appeared?
Henderson and his indicies will appear at the Renaissance Casino on the night of September 27, in what promises to be one of the biggest affairs ever pulled off at this hall. It will be in the nature of a right royal welcome to the man now holding the spotlight as the leading entertainer in the big dance halls of Greater New York and New Jersey. In honor of the occasion there will be special features upon the arrival of Henderson and his men from Baltimore where they are making their last stand before returning, og and baggage, to the scene of their early conquests.
By a strange coincidence, Henderson will also make his last all night appearance at the same casino on the night of October 2. On account of his regular work at a downtown resort, Henderson and his musicians usually arrive at the casinos where they have been billed to appear at midnight, but his appearances at the Renaissance on the above dates will be for the entire evening, which gives these
staging these affairs the jump on many of their rivals.
As already stated, features will surround the return of Henderson and many local and nationally known stars have been asked to appear so as to make the night of the 27th one long to be remembered even by those who have been in the habit of taking in everything big out of the ordinary.

Fight Scene in "The Street of Forgotten Men" a Bear for Realism
Herbert Brenon is a firm believer in realism. His belief isn't quite as firm as it was before he started "The Street of Forgotten Men," but it is still pretty well set. It was Percy Marmont's fast that nearly jarred his ideas and his teeth loose and left a large brushe on his jaw.
It happened this way. In an old-time Bowyer saloon constructed on the Paramount Long Island Studio a fight takes place between Easy Money and a FIGHT. In fact, it was a riot that wrecked the place. Marmont is featured with Nell Hamilton and Mary Brian in the cast of the picture, which will be shown next Thursday at the Lincoln Theatre. The story is a screen version of George Kibbe Turner's Bowery romance. There a strong cast playing in support of the principals.

Here is without a doubt one of the greatest pictures in the history of the screen! Lon Chaney, greatest character actor of all time, reaches the crowning triumph of his career as Prof. Echo, the ventriloquist, in his amazing underworld romance.
Never a moment without gasp on a thrill! It will send you away absolutely electrified and fascinated by its thrills, surprise, mystery romance.
It is a tale of three men of the side-show who unite their uncanny powers in a career of fantastic crime, until a woman, alone, fighting for the life of the man she loves, crosses their mysterious trail.
You'll say it is the most exciting picture you ever saw.
Packed with surprise, thrills, romance, comedy! It will keep you guessing!

Both Sides of Sensational Stabbing in Brooklyn Told for the First Time
One-Sided Account in White Dailies Not Borne Out by Investigation of Amsterdam News Representa tive Conducted Last Week
On Sept. 3, at about 9:35 p.m., one David Cohen was sitting on the doorstep of his home talking to some friends including his fiancée Selma Belfer, when Leslie Brown, one of the defendants in the sensational stabbing case of last week, is alleged to have approached the party, endeavoring to enter into a conversation with them. He probably observed that the party sitting on the stoop was disinterested in him, and thereupon, it is further alleged, began to use abusive and profane language, which was naturally resented by the party. One of the group, Michael Novello, is alleged to have struck Brown in the face with his clenched fist. Brown, who was intoxicated at the time, immediately left.

Brown, who was intoxicated an
About half an hour later the entire group, deciding to go away, started down Livonia avenue in the direction of Thatford avenue. They had not gone very far when Michael Novello observed that one Fentan Allette, presumably a friend of Brown, was engaged in a heated argument with David Cohen.
It is supposed that Fentan Allette, who was also intoxicated, struck David Cohen in the face and the latter, in order to defend himself against him and Leslie Brown, who had also come in the meantime to grow a piston and face Cohen, neither of which took effect. After the shots were fired Allette is alleged to haveOWN a knife and stabbed David Cohen in the abdomen and in the region near the heart.
Cohen immediately eroded out to his companions that he had been stabbed, warning them to loot out. He staggered and fell, being too weak to say anything else. George Scruells, a friend of the assailants, had been watching the altercation between Cohen and the other two up to the actual stabbing and, upon courting the outcry of the wounded man, rushed to the scene and is said to have hurried Brown away from the scene and rushed him to his home.
Cohen was taken to a drug store and later rushed to the East New York Hospital, where he was pronounced dead by the ambulance surgeon of the hospital. The three men were then rounded up by policemen and arrested. They are at present in the city prison at Raymond street, awaiting an examination.
That is one version of the story. Another is that the entire group was proceeding along Livonia avenue in the direction of Thutford avenue when Leslie Brown approached David Cohen and asked him for a cigarette, which David Cohen refused to give him. Brown, as a result, became abusive and began to use vile language, which Cohen resented, because he was in the company of his flames. Selma Delfer, Cohen theroupon is alleged to have bit Brown in the face when he was intrigued, pushed away immediately and run up to the house of his friend, Alette, for assistance, which came down in the company of Brown, holding a knife in his hand, it is alleged.
After some harsh words had passed between Allette and Cohen, a brawl ensued in which Cohen is slud to have pulled a pistol and fired two shots. Thereupon Allette jumped upon him and knifed him in the abdominal region near his left hip, warning others that after warning compassions that his assailant had a knife in hand, and when he was later removed to the East New York Hospital, died quickly from the wound inflicted.
George Scrubbs, a friend of both Brown and Allette, had been watching the entire proceedings from the opposite side of the street road, when he observed that Cohen had been stabbed to death, rushed over to the scene of the tragedy and pulled Brown away from the street and carried him to his home, where he treated his minor wounds and washed all the blood from his face and hands. All three were later caught by the police and locked up in Raymond Street Jail, charged with the crime of homicide. Attorney Rufus L. Perry has been retained to represent the defendants.

The Brooklyn Lodge, No. 32, I. B. P. O. E. of W., band, which is also affiliated with the Carlton Avenue Branch, Y. M. C. A., under the leadership of J. Milford Butchers, has just returned from a very successful trip to the National Elka' Convention, held recently in the capital city of Virginia, Richmond. The band gained much fame and prestige from the concerts which they gave at Richmond and Petersburg, the former being the home of the bandmaster, the butcher. The Brooklyn Lodge concert was given on August 25 at the Brooklyn Lodge convention headquarters. The Petersburg concerts took place on August 26 and 27 at the home of the Royal Lodge there.
The growth and progress of the band has been remarkable. About two years ago Mr. Butcher conceived the idea of corralling the scattered musicians of Brooklyn and forming a universal organization. At first there were 28 men, who did everything but harmonize, Despite bruises and knocks the band has grown to the size of 50 men. Another striking example of progress through difficulties! The band has given many concerts during its growth for different welfare organizations and has furnished excellent dance music on many occasions, and at all times it has exhibited competency. The on Avenue Y. M. C. A adds the band by allowing it to use its gymnasium as a place for rehearsal.

TO CAMP PROSPECT.
I will miss the emerald, endless rugged
The clear, cool, lapping water,
The sweet-scented lilies,
The twittering birds among the russet-knuckled leaves,
The blue sky
With its heavy mist.
A golden ball that shoots heated rays.
The dark water from a nearby spring.
The moth the butterfly and all curious things
I will miss the shack—sign of welcome:
The cheerful greetings from all I meet--

M. R. A. W. KINNEY, who signs himself, "Chaplain A. & M. Institute." Huntsville, Ala., has written to the Pittsburgh American that my article on August 28 was "unfit to print." This was the article where mention was made of our tendency to sleep in church and hope for the end of the sermon, so that we could get away to something more interesting, more elevating and more sincere and honest.
On course, I didn't expect the position of the long coats, big hats and itching palm to agree with me. Of course, they wouldn't. They are going to protect their industry just as judge Gary protects just as the bootlegger proclaims.

IMPOSING STRUCTURE IN WEST 137TH ST. ERECTED AT COST OF OVER $450,000
All Bishops of Zion Connection, Local Clergymen and Fraternities to Take Part in Ceremonies
With the increase in the population of Harlem the membership and activities of the Mother Zion A.M.E. Church, the mother of Zionism and the oldest Negro church in New York City, outgrew its church-building in 136th street several years ago. A beautiful gray-blue stone building of Gothic design, which towers seventy-feet, has been erected at 140-46 West 137th street, and will be dedicated Sunday.
The dedication of the new Mother-Zion marks the greatest achievement in religious activities and in the ministerial career of the Rev. James W. Brown, who has been pastor of the church for fifteen years. The beginning of the church's 127 years of useful and continuous service to the community has been put into brief form by Rev. Brown as follows:
"By those who are acquainted with the history of Methodism in this country it is generally conceded that its light first shone forth in the City of New York about the year 1765.
INTERIOR OF NEW CHURCH.
The building is 88 feet wide and 92 feet long, with a lobby 13 feet
"The John Street Church was the first Methodist Church erected in the city. There were several colored members in this church from its first organization. Between the years 1765 and 1796 the number of colored members largely increased, so much so that caste prejudice forbade their taking the Sacrament until the white families were all served. This, and the desire for other church privileges denied them, induced them to organize among themselves, which they did in the year 1796. This was the first African Methodist Episcopal church of which we have any account. In the year 1800 they built a church and called it Zion.
"This church, unlike the other colored Methodist churches formed about the same period, was, as regards its temporal economy, separate from the Methodist Episcopal Church, from its first organization. They drew up articles of agreement with the Methodist Episcopal Church under which she supplied them with ministers for about a year. So that, when oldest church of the country that has by general consent taken her name, must be conceded to be the oldest Methodist organization separate from the Methodist Episcopal Church in this country.
"As we have shown, the connection is generally called Zion out of respect to that first church; but the style and title of the church, as the founders tell us, is the African Methodist Episcopal Church; and if there is any body of Methodists in the world that has a pre-eminent right to this title it is the Zion connection, for she assumed it before there was any other to assume it." The church was built by Miller-Reed Co., 103 Park avenue, and the architects were Lawlor & Haase, 15 West 38th street. The

There are also deaconess' rooms, class leaders' rooms, Sunday school rooms, storerooms, toilet rooms, kitchen and service pantry, which are connected to the present church.
The main body of the church is entered by three doors from the street, with two entrances leading to the lecture room and three entrances leading into the main auditorium. The seating capacity of the main floor is 1,200. There are five aisles, the center one being five feet and the remaining aisles three feet. At the rear of the church there are two stairways leading to the gallery, with seating capacity of 300. This will make the total seating capacity of the church 2,100.
The pulpit is entered at the rear from the pastor's study, off of which is a reception room. The study has an outside entrance from the parsonage on West 136th street. At the rear of the pulpit is also the trustees' room, with stairway leading both to the lecture room and to the gallery. This floor is also connected with the present church in the rear. The gallery has four staircases leading to the lobby and church floor. The choir is directly above the pulpit and can be reached from either side of the gallery. Also, as well as the rear of the organ loft and motor room are back of the choir. On the gallery floor a ladies' room and men's room, with a stairway leading to the floor below and a door leading to the present church.

REV. J. W. BROWN, D. D.
The Rev. Brown was born in Elizabeth City, N. C., the oldest son of Jessie R. and Araminta Brown. After attending the public schools of his home town he entered Shaw University and graduated from the college department in the class of 1893. He taught in the State Normal School until 1900. He then entered the theological department of Lincoln University.
He entered the active ministry over twenty-two years ago, pastoring a church at Bethel, Pa. His next charge was Rochester, N. Y., where he built a new church and bought a parsonage and brotherhood house. In 1913 he came to New York to take charge of Mother Zion Church, then located at West 89th street.
In 1915 the church purchased and remodelled the Church of the Redeemer, at 151-3 West 136th street.
In 1922 the church purchased two lots on West 137th street, and in 1923 purchased two houses and lots, thus making a total realty holding of four adjoining lots on West 137th street—140-6 West 137th street.

Disappointments Galore Greet Musical Audience
A rather large audience that was present to hear Arthur P. Glanville's big musical concert for the benefit of the Oriental Literary and Social Club at the 187th Street Branch of the Y. W. C. A. suffered a number of disappointments, Thursday evening.
The first disappointment was when the program failed to begin at 8.50 p. m. It was exactly 9.25 when Ida Sterling, a contralto and pupil of Prof. Packer Ramsey, gracefully bowed before the audience to sing a solo.
The second disappointment came when Prof. Packer Ramsey, who was scheduled to render a teno solo for the third number on the program, failed to appear. Then there was almost a regular line of disappointments. A Mr. De Wenth, who was to have rendered a violin solo, did not appear. An address that was to be delivered by J. Shervington was omitted. The baritone and 'cello solos that were to have been rendered by Elton Beane and David Martin were also not given.
Mme. Estelle Leads Drive for Aged Home
A drive to raise funds to establish an old folks' home will be launched by Mme. Estelle, principal of the Nu-Life Beauty College, following a musicale which will be given at Abyssinian Baptist Church, September 28. The proceeds of the concert constitute the first rally toward the erection of the home. Because many old people who have rendered valuable service to the community are forced to go to the poorbouse because they have no means of supporting themselves. Mme. Estelle decided to lead the drive to supply Harlem with a much needed home for aged.

ITH Klansmen as pail-
W bearers, says the white
press, the funeral of
Samuel Obrey, a West Vir-
ini i was re-
ginia Negro minor, was:
cently. conducted at Roder-
field. near Welch. . The re-
port continues by saying that
as the coffin was placed in
a hearse to be taken to the
cemetery, a Ku Klux Klan
meeting, held in rooms over
the undertaking _establish-
ment, was dismissed. Noting
the ‘absence of mourners, sev-
eral Klansmen boarded the
hearse, while others fell in
behind and marched to the
cemetery, where they lifted
the coffin from: the hearse
and lowered it into the
ground, Each Klansman stood
in silence while the funeral
rites were concluded.
Just prior to tals epochal event
a Llan preacher. during its Wash-
ington, D. v.. festival. bad adve-
cated a Jim Crow car law for th
District of Coiumbia, ant a ew
days tater, to the writer's persena!
knewledse, distaste for local Ne-
sroes had heen manifested in the
vicinity “of a local Klan meeting.
AN of which points the fingers of
curlosity a’ the multifarious acts
of an organizatiun which is so cul
spoken ia its ideals. What. pray.
{s the motive of the Klan when ot
tenders a purse toa Negro church
or designates pallbearers for at-
tendance at a Negro funeral? Is
it the attitude of throwing a dox a
bone, or is it to try to veneer tir
true aims of this modern knigit-
hood organization?
I case of the latter, the an.
nouncemenis of the Klai lterature
too plainiy bespeak their estimate
of & large proportion of our.Ameri-
tan constituency; and. if it is the
former, ciurch purses and sympa-
thies for the dead might more con.
sistently be tendered to these
whose idealistic’ alliances are more
In harmony with the Klan than are
those of their colored brethren.
Altogether, the queer capers of
the Klan indicate that realizing its
axis if supporting naught but a los:

Police Called to Protect Shipping Agent From Disgruntled Colored Sailors. (Preston News Service.) LONDON, Sept. 7. — Southampton, which is the storm center of the shipping strike, is threatened with gravo disorder, and it is reported that the police and strikers are massed face to face.
The trouble began early Wednesday evening, when sixteen colored men brought from Cardiff paraded before the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company's office and demanded representative, who, they allega, missthem when they inquired for a ship unaffected by the strike. They found, they said on arrival at the ship, that they were expected to replace other colored men who ceased work, they threatened to sack them if they held the ship representatives, and the police were called.
Late Wednesday a strong force of police was stationed outside the building, while opposite them was the colored group, flanked by a strong contingent of British strikers.

What Price Victory?
HENRY LINCOLN JOHNSON, possibly the ablest politician of the old school, died last Thursday following a stroke of paralysis and, as the news of his death spread abroad, men and women of all political faiths paused to estimate the loss sustained by the country and by his race.
JOHNSON was a Republican and his Republicanism was as pure as that of any other man or woman of that faith, white or black. Yet, he never ceased to fight for what he believed to be for the best interests of his party and of his race. He held sway as the political leader of the Negro in the South for a period of twenty-five years against onslaughts of white politicians in the South and the more radical group of Negroes in the North. Many there were who disagreed with him and his policies but all men respected him because of loyalty to a cause and his ability as a wyer, orator and political strategist.
IN MOST OF HIS POLITICAL BATTLES Johnson came out victorious and his death followed closely on the heels of his most recent conflict, in which he was again crowned with victory, and which may have been a contributing factor in his death. Twice before, following such a victory, he suffered similar attacks. He won over his enemies not because the odds were in his favor, but because he always went into battle equipped with his full armor—his ability as a lawyer, his educational attainments, his knowledge of the enemy's plan of attack, his oratory and ready wit, his readiness to give and take and his unassuming good nature. He fought with every ounce of his ability—mental and physical. He merited the many victories he won in politics and fraternalism.

Expressed by Our Contemporaries
New Interpreters of Life
(From the Boston Post.)
For the second time this year prize winners have been announced in national literary contests among colored people. "Opportunity—a Journal of Negro Life," and an organ of the National Urban League, conducted the first contest. Awards were made early last spring, such well-known persons as Fannie Hurst, Dorothy Canfield Fisher, Clement Wood and Zona Gale serving as judges. The second contest was conducted by "The Crisis," organ of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the awards were made last Friday night. Some of the judges in this second contest were Sinclair Lewis, Charles W. Chasnutt, Edward Bok, Eugene O'Neill, W. E. B. DuBois and William Stanley Braithwaite.
It is about time that writers of the colored group in the United States were brought to the front. With the wealth of material to be found in the lives of these people, writers of and for them should be able to produce some worthwhile literature. Men like Irvin Cobb and Octavus Roy Cohen, while entertaining a large number of persons, are not truly interpreters of the life of the colored man. Their business is remunerative, therefore they write. Their products appeal to the great mass—imagination—that imagination which prefers the light, the burlesque on life, to the serious truths involving dramatic crisis.
While it may be true that a man who is "of" a certain people may always interpret them better than an "outsider." It is quite true that his very contact gives him many an advantage that the other lacks.
It is good for the young colored writers that "Opportunity" and "The Crisis" are discovering them; it is also good for the future of American literature.
When these young writers prove, through the value of their contribution, that there is a public which wishes to read them, there is no doubt that the prejudice which allegedly exists against them among magazines will be overcome.
Needs of the Virgin Islands
(From the New York Tribune.)
The appeal which is being made to the President for governmental changes to the Virgin Islands seems difficult, but the Virgin Islands and political motives, though it will strongly迟缓 receive whatever attention is its due. The demand for summary removal of the District Judge for refusing jury trial, for example, apparently ignores the fact that the Bill of Rights does not obtain in a territorial possession until the provisions of the Constitution are specifically extended to it. Thus in the case of Florida, a century ago, Daniel Webster successfully maintained that trial by jury might be denied in any matter, in the discretion of the court, or might even be entroly prohibited by act of Congress.
Nor is the denunciation of the administration of affairs by an officer of the navy in itself convincing. A naval officer, like an elected Governor, may be a good or a bad administrator. There is nothing intrinsic evil in the appointment of an officer. On the contrary, the general standard of character and capacity among naval officers is so high and their efficiency as executives and administrators has averaged so great, that the prima facie presumption in the present case is altogether in favor of the existing government of the islands.
The real question would seem to be whether the magnitude of the islands and the character of their social and economic needs require some other form of government than that which has prevailed for the eight years of our ownership of them. It has hitherto been supposed that their lilies, which are doubtless serious, are economic rather than political. Our prohibition law has ruined their rum industry, synthetic chemistry has impaired that of hay oil and hay rum, and beet sugar competition has proved disastrous to their cane plantations. With the three chief industries of the islands prostrated it isn't strange that their population is rapidly declining, chiefly through migration to the United States and, indeed, to this city.
We certainly owe it to the islands, on practical as well as sentimental grounds, to promote so far as may be possible their general welfare. The unanimous readiness of the people to be transferred to the sovereignty of the United States, entitles them as least to the privilege of having their citizenship status defined, a task which Congress has thus far neglected to perform. It would be a lamentable outcome of William Henry Seward's vision of a century and more ago to permit the islands to lapse into discontentment and material decay.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Gray's "Luck" Criticized
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Sir:
On the editorial page of The Amsterdam News of September 2 there appeared an article on "Luck" by J. Otho Gray. Will you kindly allow me space in your journal weekly to reply?
Experience teaches that Luck is something that exists and always will. This fatality exists, but it is internal; just as the fatality of a habit or a passion is internal when we wish to overcome it but are unable to do so. We hold the key to this determinism. Law, not confusion, is the dominating principle in the universe. That circumstances grow out of thought every man knows who has for any length of time practiced self-control and self-purification, for he will have noticed that alteration in his circumstances has been in exact ratio with his altered mental condition.
We now understand how our own mental attitude leads to success or failure. The luck that shapes our ends is in ourselves.
Yours truly,
THOMAS H. WITHERSPOON.
New York City, Sept. 6, 1926.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
The tenor of the language under the caption "Luck" printed on the Editorinl and Feature page of the Amsterdam News September 2 would indicate selfishness or over-confidence 'emanating from an intellectual unfortunate.
Please, when our informants write, write something; when they talk, say something; when they do, do something worthy of emulation and imitation.
It is apparent that the height of our leadership has retrograded to such an extent that their sayings have ceased to be a virtue, but have become a bane almost beyond consideration.
The article concluded, "now that you know what Luck is"; but if we know what Luck is, it is not because of the explicit information derived from the article mentioned.
The writer being one of the so-called common people, the lower strata, a horny-handed son of toll of the pick and shovel bivouac, kindly informs that the minority leaders are cogs to the wheels of progress of the majority, the laity.
Move up or pack up, unblock the highway ere we trend upon them in our forward march up the rugged steps to the goal.
Very respectfully.

Auburn Prison Appeal
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir; I am addressing you in behalf of the 200 colored inmates of Auburn Prison who are desirous of sharing in the commemoration of the one great historic event in the life of the colored race in America; that of Emancipation Day. These men and women in prison have no money of their own for the purpose, and the prison rules do not permit outside soliciting on the part of inmates.
Dear Sir; I am addressing you in behalf of the 200 colored inmates of Auburn Prison who are desirous of sharing in the commemoration of the one great historic event in the life of the colored race in America; that of Emancipation Day. These men and women in prison have no money of their own for the purpose, and the prison rules do not permit outside soliciting on the part of inmates.
In order to meet this situation, we have formed a Co-operative Committee among the people of our church which especially interests itself in the welfare of the unfortunate colored people within the prison walls. With the consent of Warden E. S. Jennings and with the co-operation of the Mtual Welfare League of Auburn Prison, Emancipation Day will be celebrated this fall to as full an extent as the contributions of friends on the outside will permit.

Your contribution, no matter how small, will be gratefully remembered by those whose lives it will cheer and will also be deeply appreciated by the committee.
Please address your check or money order to the Colored Committee, care of E. S. Jennings, 135 State street, Auburn, N. Y., not later than Sept. 25, 1925. Packages should be sent thus, also.

Louisville School Tests Kept Secret Which Showed Negroes Superior
Louisville School Tests Kept Secret Which Showed Negroes Superior
Tests of school children in the schools of Louisville, Ky., have shown startling results, according to an editorial in the October Crisis, which states that the authorities have been suppressing the results. Says the Crisis, editorially:
"A little bird whispered to the editor and he wrote a positive note to the Superintendent of Louisville City schools asking for the published results of the intelligence' tests. Since some of the local colorado school teachers were ill-education, The editor wrote again and even more politely, enclosing a stamp, and the reply came:
"I have your letter of July 17. We are constantly making tests in the Louisville schools, but this information is not available to the public."
'B. W. HARTY. SQU. 'What is wrong? Why all this heavy secrecy? Tell it not in Gath, but if the truth must be known, those damned tests went and came out wrong! In other words, instead of proving white children superior, they actually proved—but, no; we cannot write it;
Business Leaders Tell of Needs
(Preston News Service.)
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 14—Thursday's session of the tenth anniversary meeting of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, which convenes Wednesday at the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, was featured by addresses from men prominent in Negro financial circles and in the history of the organization.
Carther G. Woodson, of this city, director research and editor of the association, who presided, gave a short introductory talk on the lack of knowledge of business details among Negroes and the difficulty of securing information as to the financial standing of the Negro business men.
Better Training Urged.
S. W. Rutherford of Washington, president of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company and secretary-treasurer of the association, who was to have presided, was unable to appear. He sent in his place John Pinkett, also of Washington, who spoke on "Business Conditions as They Affect the Negro." Mr. Pinkett advocated better individual and general control of business organizations run by Negroes. He stressed the superior need of trained men to conduct research work which would facilitate some kind of business control.
In explaining the need of better organization he said: "It has not been so long since a man starting out for himself in any field of endeavor would have had a fair chance of succeeding by following the ht-orniss system. However, the day is at hand when competition is so keen that only those trained in their work will have any hope of success." W. G. Pearson, of Durham, N. C., president of the Bankers' Life Insurance Company and closely connected with educational work in his native State, spoke on "Why the Negro Business Man Often Fails." He attributes their frequent failure to four main causes. First, inexperience; second, lack of support; third, lack of capital and misdirected capital; fourth, fraudulent methods employed by some.
While he said the last two causes are not so prevalent, many failures are due to lack of support of colored business organizations by the colored people themselves. He cites the case of one colored banker who frequently overdrew his account in the bank of which he was a director while he had a large savings account in a white bank in another section of the town. Mr. Rutherford urges a financial magazine dealing with colored business conditions to aid the young men who are starting out in the business world. W. Gomez, of Durham, N. C., secretary and treasurer of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company, spoke on "The Necessity of a Survey of Negro Business." He feels that such a survey would bring into contact the theories and experiences in the Negro's methods of handling business.
After a luncheon at the Whitlaw Hotel discussions on "The Negro Press. Past and.
it's too awful.
"But what difference does it make, anyhow? Who needs psychology or evolution or anthropology or anything else to prove Nordic superiority? Doesn't everybody know it without proof? And if the new psychology in the hands of scientists, instead of army Bullards and academic idots, eventually fails our McDougals, Grants and Stoddards, need they worry? There's plenty of 'scientific' proof to come.
"McMontime, to Louisville in its misery we make the suggestion: Don't publish all the results; publish the parts you like best. Or, better, wait and publish only those which come out right!"
The October Crisis also publishes a list of the winners in the recent Amy Spingarn Literary and Art Contests, poems by Countee Cullen and Langston Hughes, two of the prize-winners, and contains in full the address on "Science, Pseudo-Science and the Race Question," delivered at the Denver Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People by Professor Herbert Adolphus Miller of Ohio State University.
"Present," was led by Robert S. Abbott of the Chicago Defender; L. H. King, of the New Orleans Southwestern, Christion Advocate, and Robert L. Vann, of the Pittsburgh Courier.
Wednesday's session was taken up with talks on "The African Background of the Negro." "The Negro of Today" and "The Negro Before the Civil War." The convention will close Thursday night with a final session at the church.
Emancipation-to-Save the Republic Day
BOSTON, Mass., Sept. 14.—"September 22nd is one of the greatest days in the history of Americans of African descent, being vied with only by January 1st which' cannot be disliked being New York State's greatest because of issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation in 1862. It should be annually noticed, not, however, as a reminder of race slavery but to remind all America that the Emancipation was declared as the only means to save the Union of States by using the fighting power of the colored race to rescue the Republic from destruction by the South." Such is the opening clause of an appeal to the race nationally to publicly observe. Sept. 22nd as "Emancipation-to-save-the Republic" Day in every county, town or city by race mass meetings or conventions.
CENSUS FIGURES SHOW
ALBANY HAS 116,750
ALBANY. Sept. 4—Latest figures for the cities, villages and towns of New York State will come soon. The first of the 1925 census figures announced by Florence E. S. Knapp, Secretary of State, under whose direction the count was made the forepart of June, show Albany as a city of of 116,750, while Syracuse has a population of 182,003. Binghamton is credited with 11,915. Albany has had a growth during the past five years of 8,406 while Syracuse has gained 10,286 during the same period.

NEW ORLEANS.—More than 800 white and colored long-shorenet met in joint conference recently to take action on the strike on the river front which has been in progress for over a year. Speeches were made by officers of both the white and colored sections and it is said that a determined effort will be made on an organization work in order that a united demand can again be made on the vessel owners for a living wage and recognition of the union. A representative of the American Negro Labor Congress took an active part in this conference.

ALTHEIMER, Ark. Sept. 7. —It is reported that James Jacobs, tenant on the L. D. Jacobs man plantation, near here, has picked 10 bales of cotton from 28 acres during August. It is said to be the finest grade and Jacobs is expected to make between 15 and 20 bales more from the acreage. He is regarded as one of the best farmers in the section
"Black Laughter"
By Llewelyn Powys. Published by Messrs. Harcourt. Brace and Company. 3$$ Madison Avenue, New York City. Price. $2.50.
HAVE already reviewed one of Llewelyn Powys' books,
"Ebony and Ivory," but this later volume of African
sketches seems to me more admirable than the earlier one, and I want to call the attention of readers of Book Chat to it. Moreover, the Powys family are so distinguished that one wants to keep in touch with them. The September number of the Century has an article by John Cowper Powys called "Four Brothers," in which he describes the four men of his family who have recently made their way, into print. They are of Welsh and Norfolk stock, rearer in Dorset and "displaying to the end of their days." John Powys writes, "a certain simple, rustic, naive, pastoral quality which mingles quaintly enough with our various sophisticated perversities." Llewelyn Powys, the youngest, is described by his brother as "a poetical materialist with an unconquerable zez for life—for life on any terms"; and again as "an incorrigible adventurer, the life-intoxicated world child." We who read "Black Laughter" find him all this, and in simpler terms call him a vivid story teller, who gives us a glimpse of of Africa that no one else has yet shown.
The Wonders of African Peoples
The Beautiful Temple of El Jerra.
Arabia Petraea is the name given to that part of the peninsula of Arabia that lies between the two guffs of the Red Sea. Here were the mountains of Sinai and Horeh from whence amidst the thunders Israel is said to have received her laws. Here, too, dwelt the Midianites, one of several black tries, to whom Moses fled from Egypt, and resided 40 years, keeping the flocks of his black father-in-law, Jethro. It is no wonder then that travelers who would visit the Holy Land come in great numbers to Petra and there wander among the scenes that hold such memories. But the wonder of all the wonders is the beautiful rock hawn Temple of Petra, reared not to any deity of the Bible, but to isis, the mystical black goddess of old Egypt.
The Arabs call it Ri-Khnahe (the treasury) from a legend that treasures were hid in the urn dimly seen at the top of the facade. This beautiful temple stands in the opening of the narrow gorge between the desert and the rocky hills of Petra. It is sculptured entirely from the living rock, not one piece of stone being added to that which nature left there. It measures 65 feet from the ground and even in its ruins stands as one of

Llewelyn Powys, in search of health, went to join one of his brothers (not one of the writers) in East Africa. He landed at a little wayide station, where, his brother failing to meet him, he had to spend the night in a woodshed by the side of the track. He was awakened by the roar of a lion who came near to him that he could hear its breathing. He slept no more that night, and learned in the morning from the stationmaster that it was a "polite lion" who disturbed no one, but had come down to the water tank to drink. So his adventures began. There are a long line of them told with the touch of the poet. There is the lovely portrait of the Masal malden whom he was tempted to buy from her father and take to wife. But the fear in the girl's eyes held him back. There is Merishu, the only Masal whom he found interested in European civilization, to whom he taught to write, and who, dying, strove to trace a message on the sands. The tropics are apt to breed cruelty in the white man, but our author feels sympathy and the life about him. He is an Englehman who looks with respect to the man who tames his face to the rinsing and setting sun and prays, though it deprives the master of an hour's daily work. He is an Englehman who feels the majesty of the animal life about him. He despises Paul Raney (whose moving pictures once delighted us) who could look upon a herd of zebra, with "sleek striped flanks and inquisitive mottled heads," and say "I would like to send a bullet into that little outfit." Who when his hounds got upon the scent of a lion cried out, "I see you, I see you, you son of a bitch." Not so Powys toward the king of all beasts. He sees the splendor of this great animal world in which man plays so small a part. He is no callous, unimaginative hunter of big game.
"O. Africa; Africa! how eagerly, how savagely, you avenge even so much as the cutting of a branch or the artificial manipulation of a single one of your stones! And yet the hour is fast approaching when even your stiff mouth will wince under a hideous double hit; when your stiff neck will be howed in ignoble subjection."
I presume that that, day
Keeping Fit-:- BY E. ELLIOTT RAWLING, M.D.
The Common Communion Drinking Cup
I have just come from a vacation in the mountainous regions of Pennsylvania and there I have been taught a lesson in health in a little church of a mining town. The sacrament of the Holy Communion is given to the members by a method called "Intinction." A wafer held by a metal tong is dipped by the minister into the wine contained in a silver chalice. This is finally placed into the hand of the communicant, who reverently takes it to his mouth and thus gets the body and blood of Christ according to the mandates of the Christian Church. By such a method there is no common drinking cup in the administration of the sacrament.

WHY waste life's fleeting moments in sleeping?
Life is too short—too swift winged are the hearts
To spend them in bed . . . while death comes creeping
To blight us as the winter blights the flowers.
Behold the wonders of our marvellous age
Think you that men asleep thought them to birth:
No! Men who laugh at slumber mould each age.
And hold the helm of onward rushing earth!
When I think not of mighty things, I sleep.
Away the bed while burns life's feeble glow!
For soon comes Death, the time arresting deep.
Thru whose dark waters sleeping I must go.
O. Wisdom, if the watching stars look down.
And catch me nodding at my mighty post.
Let old Time wake me with his darkest frown.
And dock me for each idle moment lost!
—By William D. Robinson.
I have often shuddered at the sight of person after person putting their lips to the same drinking cup in a promiscuous congregation, where my medical knowledge detected the most beautiful temples of antiquity. It is as classic as the temples of Greece, but the Greeks never carved a temple out of a hill. That is why travelers want to see RI-Khazneh and why they never forget it.

which Powys predicts will soon come. Already those who visit in comfort equatorial Africa know little of the roar of the lion in the laugh of the hyena. They tell us their native, discreetly clad, singing atrocious hymns. It will be in such books as "Black Laughter" that the dark continent, untamed, will remain for the future. And reading it, people will understand what life was to the men who lived among such things. As Powys says regarding a battle he once listened to between two lions: "Now that I am once more living among civilized surroundings I come to appreciate how liberating to my spirit the mere contemplation of such African incidents has been. When I am in danger of being engaged in this or that cleverly baited bourgeous trap I have but to think of that sublime battle, and petty considerations, petty preoccupations, fall into place."

When I think not of mighty th
persons suffering with bronchitis, tuberculosis and syphilis.
Medical science has shown that tonsilitis, diphtheria and scarlet fever, as well as tuberculosis and syphilis, can be contracted from a common drinking cup. The Board of Health of progressive municipalities has legislated against the use of a common drinking cup in public places or meeting rooms. This is done because of the knowledge of contagion in its use. Then why do the ministers of the Christian Church continue so unhealthy and dangerous a custom? Do they think that the alcohol in the wine destroys the germs and bacillus and thus prevents the dissemination among the communicants? Do they think that wiping the cup with a napkin after the lips of a person has touched it prevents contagion? If they do, they are wrong.
Bishop Lawrence, of Massachusetts, had an analysis made of the communion cup and of the napkin immediately after they were used in the administration of the Holy Communion at the pro-catholic in Boston; the bacteriologist of Harvard University sent back the report that he found active, living haecilim remaining upon the rim of the cup and also upon the napkin. This is proof conclusive of the danger to health in the common communion cup. I trustfully believe that many professing members of the Christian Church refrain from taking the Holy Communion because of the fear of contagion. There is a serious danger involved. In many churches of Harlem, I have seen people going up to take this communion cup to their lips whom I am treating for some such a disease as tuberculosis, bronchitis, tonsillitis, and even scabies. At these times I have felt it my duty to run to the communion rail, and in a voice cry out "danger, danger!" This would be the same as to cry out "fire, fire!" if I saw smoke and flames emerging from a house in which people within were sleeping. The Christian Church has many beautiful sacraments, ordained to lift the spirit of its people, and the Holy Communion is the most sacred and holy legacy left by the Founder of the Christian religion. I therefore believe that it should never be discarded. In the light of present day revolutions of medical science, however, this sacrament of the Holy Communion should be administered in a manner that no physical harm may come to the participants—no danger of disease or infection. This can only be accomplished by giving the communion without the lips coming in contact with the cup. This is the method called "intinction." It is clean; it is sanitary; it is without fear. It is right.
