POLICE ROUND UP EIGHT 'HALL ROOM BANDITS' IN DAY
BY THE CAMERAMAN
American Negro
Labor Congress
THE American Negro Labor Congress, which has just closed its much-heralded convention in Chicago, was misnamed. It should have been called "The Rushing-to-Ruin Conventionski," for, beneath the veneer of protest against segregation, unequal wages, Jim-Crowism, and other evils, we readily admit exist in this country in overflowing measure, and which the A N. L. C. used as a smoke screen, there was the subtle and at times outspoken advocacy of the establishment in America of the Soviet Government of Russia. Sporadic outbursts of unrestrained applause revealed all too clearly the Communistic souls of the delegates, who, it was readily apparent, are instrumentalities of white Communistic leaders, who, having failed in their past undertakings among their own group, have now turned to Negroes, hoping to stir up such an unrest as will make "goats" of the Negro labor of this country.
The arguments that the aims of the Congress should be consummated AT ANY COST, and that the Government had failed in its unrestrained of the working classes even slinks into minor importance, compared with the resentful revolutionary spirit which rose among the mixed delegations of alleged workers from many of whose lips a foreign tongue or two. With the French pressless eyes of the white delegates was only equalled by the international drawl and quasi-Russian tongue of the leaders of the Congress.
For the sake of honesty, we would like to ask Organizer Lovett-Fort-Whiteman, alias, "James Jackson," who admits that he had to go across the seas to be properly "instructed" in the ways of American workmen, a few questions. Are there not enough organizations in America already at work upon the social and labor problems to make a proper vehicle for the desires of the A. N. L. C.? Is there such a vast gulf between the work rewards meted out to American laborers, that the questionable desires of Moscow have to be brought over here as a solvent? What of the American leaders, white and black? Are their life and labor absolute failures, withstanding the wonderful progress which all labor, white and black, is surely making under their militaristic guidance? Does not all labor, if properly nurtured, turn into Capital? And are not the American transitions good enough for us, without stirring up advances from Russia, Asia and Turkestan? We hoped that the A. N. L. C was on the square; but we find that it is another mushroom labor fantasy, weak in structure, meaningless in purpose, and in contravention to American progress.
Legislation in the Bud
WITH the opening day of Congress just a few weeks off in the distant future, ambitious statesmen and lobbyists among the brethren are beginning to sound their yearly remedies for relief by Congressional legislation in several matters which are of vital concern to the race. Various proponents of reform are talking of their legislative pets, but exhibits of bills are as scarce as mountain dew in the Sahara Desert.
For instance, we hear that a new anti-banking bill is to be ready by December, which will be minus all the pitfalls contained in the layer document. Next, we hear that a bill to establish civil government in the Virgin Islands, Sainte Samia's acquisition from Denmark, is to be introduced. Further, it is whispered that the brethren want some changes made in the functions and duties of the Railway Labor Board, and that a delegation of railway men, heading up at Chicago, are coming East to have Congress take up their positions. Too, Friends, who are fearful, each year the Howard University appropriation is stricken out by Congressman Thomas L. Blanton, Democrat, of Texas, say that this embarrassment can be avoided for once and for all by having legislation introduced which will give Howard a definite status in the stead of filing into the public treasury on the back of the Interior department. All these prospects sound mighty good to us; but we were told by "Margery" the psychic wizardess, that legislation calls for even stronger coalition among the 57 groups who are voluntarily carrying the brethren's burdens than any other type of initiative, which is in capacity at this time. "Margery" proved to our entire satisfaction that with Bill's gang throwing stones at Jim's group, while (Continued on Page 12)

Elsie Herbert Found Guilty of Writing Threatening Letters and Annoying Music Teacher's Wife
Elsie Herbert, unrelenting rival of Mrs. Laura Prampin for the affections of Mrs. Prampin's husband, Harry, who conducts the Prampin School of Music at 139 West 136th street, reached a climax Monday. Miss Herbert was found guilty of writing Mrs. Prampin threatening letters and annoying her over the telephone. She is now in jail awaiting sentence.
Magistrate Simpson, in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning, heard the case. During the testimony of the complainant the magistrate sustained all of the objections made by the defendant's counselor, Richard L. Cunningham, the law partner of Frank W. Stanton, but dented his motion to discharge his client.
Assist. Dist. Attorney Charles White produced letters that were said to be the handwriting of the convicted woman which had been sent to Mrs. Prampin. On one of the letters appeared a drawing of a woman in a coffin. On another letter was a pencil drawing of two women fighing. Inscribed above the drawing was: "You are fighting a losing battle."
Nat'l 'Y' Council Appoints Officers
Several Important Appointments Given to
WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 31.—High recognition was given to several leading Negro representatives by the International Convention and the National Council of the Young Men's Christian Associations, which have been holding sessions here during the past week.
A. E. Malone, of St. Louis, was elected vice-president of the International Convention; John I. Pinkett, of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, was one of the speakers; and Mr. Malone, Dr. John Hope of Atlanta, Ga., Horace Sudduth of Cincinnati, and Dr. Channing I.

The National Council elected
Dr. R. W. Moton as one of twenty-
one members at large selected
from the entire country; it chose
Principal W. R. Valentine of
Bordentown, N. J., as vice-chairman of the Council, and re-elected Dr. John Hope to the General Board, which is composed of thirty-six men from all parts of the country. The General Board carries on the work of the Council between the annual meetings of this body.

Upon the complaint of Mrs. Prampin, last June, Miss Herbert was put on probation for six months. Finger-biting was the outstanding sensation of the hearing. Three weeks ago she was arraigned before Magistrate Goodman and was held in $300 bail. Over a period of four months the young woman has pursued Prampin, his wife testified. She was bold enough to come to the Prampin's residence and ask for him. Mrs. Prampin said.... When the music instructor recognized the convicted woman's voice over the telephone and asked what she wanted. Mrs. Prampin swore that she said that if she was close enough to her she would stab her to death. Although the woman denied that she wrote the letters that were offered as evidence, the magistrate held that her own handwriting was similar to that in the letters. She was extremely nervous during the hearing. Miss Herbert was always composed, with the exception of an occasional burst of laughter at the testimony of her rival. After analyzing the evidence that was produced, Magistrate Simpson ordered that the woman be fingerprinted. He then had her placed in jail until further investigation was made. She will be sentenced Thursday morning.
Hotel Willard, where the sessions were held, provided accommodations for all delegates.
Lincoln Hospital Turned Over to City
Justice Lydon signed an order Saturday in the Supreme Court, the Bronx, authorizing the trustees of Lincoln Hospital to turn the buildings and equipment over to the city for $750,000, the sum to be used for the construction of a training school for nurses.
Mrs. Laudon K. Thorne, president of the hospital, made application for the order. The trustees sought permission to transfer the hospital because of an annual deficit of more than $75,000, which they held to be due to inadequate payment by the city for ambulance service and care of city patients.
The Board of Estimate authorized the purchase of the institution last June. The transaction must be completed by November 15.
"KID" NORFOLK WINS IN BATTLE FOR FLAT
Kid Norfolk, one of the outstanding light-heavyweight prizefighters in the world, convinced Justice Mu Tigue in the Seventh District Court, 220 West 125th street, that he was entitled to an apartment in the house he owns at 233 West 104th street.
In private life Kid Norfolk is known as William Ward. Recently he purchased the 1400th street house and secluded notice on James's tenant, that he desired his rooms for his family. Martin refused to vacate and Norfolk then brought a dispossess action.
The pugilist was granted possession of the rooms on consenting to give the tenant until January 1 to find other living quarters.

Fines Reduced While You Wait
"Fifty dollars fine!"
"Judge, I haven't got any such amount of money," said the prisoner.
"Twenty-five dollars, then, scowled the judge, a smile barely visible on his countenance.
"Judge, you're headed in the right direction, but I haven't $25."
"Ten dollars, five dollars, one dollar."
The last figure evidently struck the point because Sylvester, of 46, West 135th street, arraigned in the Federal Court by U. S. Attorney E. R. Buckner last week, dropped a finger-worn bill in the hands of the court clerk.
Not only was Simmons convicted of possessing five bottles of gin, but he made the mistake of offering a drink to a policeman on the street.
Ashley L. Totten, Employees' Representative, Fired for 'Insubordination'
It has just been announced that the Pullman Company recently summarily discharged Ashley L. Totten, chairman of Local No. 5 Pullman Porters' Benefit Association and Grievance Committee Member on the Employee Representation Plan for the "Company Uniform for Insubordination."
Totten, a very militant, outspoken and courageous man, had been a thorn in the side of the Pullman Company officials. It is said, because of his espousal of the cause of the men.
Totten was in Chicago at the time of his discharge, having been recently elected a delegate to the P. P. B. A. convention. It was suspected that he would raise the question of hours and wages.
Totten had been in the Pullman service six years and his record was perfectly clear. He is the third man to be discharged because of his advocacy of the men, the other two being Roy Lancaster and S. E. Grain, general secretary, treasurer and field representative, respectively, of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters.
Did Not Know He
Killed Three With Auto
PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 31.—Fried Thorpe, chauffeur, confessed Wednesday that he was the driver of the motor car that ran down and killed Isador Herman, his wife and daughter in West Philadelphia Sunday night. A charge of manhunger was lodged against him. "I knew I had struck something." Thorpe told the detectives in his cell, "but didn't know what it was. At first I thought it was a horse and stepped on the gas and kept on going. Then I drove to the center of the city, where I saw that the wheels of the car were spattered with blood. This frightened me and I decided to abandon the car." Thorpe sent for his former employer, Maurice Halmowich, owner of the death car, shortly before midnight, and made his statement before him and a number of detectives.
"Professor" Held for Practising Medicine
Accused of prescribing medicine without being a licensed physician, "Proof," Eatharin Monodu, 243 West 133rd street, was held in $1,500 ball in the Night Court by Magistrate Goodwin Saturday night. He will be examined in the Harlem Court, Wednesday morning.
Monodu was arrested by Pollen woman Sarah Bahr and Detective Mary McDonald, who went to the man's residence on October 2 and secured medicine with full instructions, they said, for $2,500.
One of the women testified that she pretended that her knee was afflicted. The man then gave her a rubbing oil, she said.

RECKLESS DRIVER
SENT TO JAIL
Charged with reckless auto driving, Harold Lloyd, 26, 2450 Seventh avenue, was committed to jail for five days by Magistrate House in the Manhattan Homicide Court, Thursday. Thomas G. Slagle, a jobber, 104 30th street, Jackson Heights, L. J. made the complaint. He testified that Lloyd collided with him at Eighth avenue and 43rd street while driving his car in a reckless manner.
Organizer of Brotherhood Questions Employment of Assistant Attorney General by Private Corporation
CHICAGO, Oct. 31. All Chicago was aroused over the heralded debate between Honorable Perry W. Howard; special assistant to the United States Department of Justice and recent appointee as a member of the legal staff of the Pullman Company, and A. Philip Randolph, editor of the Messenger, and general organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. The debate was electric throughout. It was replete with "high-light."
Randolph opened the debate as the champion of the Pullman porters' right to organize for their own benefit.
The question was: Resolved. That it is to the interest of the Pullman porters to organize under the plan of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters.
Mr. Howard took the negative position and argued that the existing machinery known as the Employee Representation Plan was serving adequately in adjusting grievances between the Pullman porters and the company. Mr. Randolph pointed out that the porters needed a union, because the Employee Representation Plan was under the thumb of the Pullman Company; that the local management and the local grievance committees, the zone-general committee and the Board of Industrial Relations acted as prosecutor, jury and judge. He showed that, in the wage conference under the plan the Pullman porters who were sent as representatives of the men in their districts received their transportation from their company; that their hotel bills were paid by the company, and consequently was morally unable to serve the interest of the Pullman porters.
Continuing, he charged that Perry Howard could not be trusted to protect the interests of the Pullman porters because he did not know anything about the problems and nothing about labor questions, and was thoroughly uninformed on economic matters. He also maintained that Mr. Perry Howard was morally unjustified in accepting a salary from the taxpayers of America as Special Assistant to the United States Department of Justice, and, at the same time, company a job in the Pullman Company, a private corporation, from whose unlawful acts it is his duty to protect the people. He forcefully pointed out that the low wage of $67.50 per month which the Pullman porters receive is sadly inadequate to give them a decent living.
MORGAN'S WATCHMAN
KILLED IN HOLDUE
GLEN COVE Nov. L-Charles Clayton, white, watchman on the estate of J. P. Morgan, died Saturday night in the Glen Cove Community Hospital from a bullet wound inflicted by a holdup man Friday night. The watchman, at the time he was shot, was within 100 yards of the house occupied by the superintendent of the Morgan estate.

Leaves $100,000 to School Children
When the will of John W. Underhill, owner of a two-room shack, where he lived and sold candy to school children, was filed for probate in Mays Landing, N. J., it was found he had an estate of more than $100,000 and that he left it all to be used in helping the school children.
"The money was left to the local school board with the simple instructions: "Spend it so that the children may enjoy the fruits of my years of labor."
Underhill took the profits from his candy business, invested it in real estate, but never gave up his shack, even when wealthy.
The Underhill funeral, held Saturday, was a community affair. He was the only Negro residing in the township, which is a Klan stronghold.

Body of Energetic Young Tennesseean Found Many Miles From Home
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Oct. 31.
—The finding of the dead and fast decomposing body of Charles Waterhouse, taxi driver, found in a patch of woods near Cleveland, Tenn., by Zollie and Vance Pruitt, white brothers of Cleveland, is still an unsolved mystery.
Waterhouse, a respectable and progressive citizen, disappeared from his home, 327 Peoples street, on Oct. 3, having been employed by two men, E. J. Serruggs of Johnson City, and A. M. Reilly of Jefferson, Ky., to drive them to Cleveland.
Waterhouse, who operated a taxicab from the Union station for years, had just purchased a new sedan. He was engaged regularly to carry the station policeman to his home and on the night of Oct. 3 when he was approached by Seruggs and Reilly to make the trip to Cleveland the policeman walked up and is said to have heard the chauffeur tell the men that he would return and make the trip as soon as he carried the officer home.
From that night until the dead body of the man was found nothing was heard of him, and foul play was suspected, resulting in relatives of Waterhouse and Sheriff Tom Selman of this county offering a $100 reward for him, dead or alive.
Saupeleton is directed toward the two white men who engaged Waterhouse to make the trip as having killed him, robbing his body of a sum of money and a watch, and fleeing in his new Dodge sedan. A watch thought to have been the one owned by Waterhouse was pawned in Cleveland. The men are said to have been seen together in Athens, several miles distant from the scene of the crime, and it is believed that they pursued such a course for the purpose of throwing officers off their trail. The men were employed as news butchers running

HELD WITHOUT BAIL FOR FURTHER HEARING WEDNESDAY MORNING
Ages Range From 17 to 53 Years Action Follows Robbery of Brooklyn Man in Hallway of Building
Admitting and signing confessions to over seventy-five robberies, eight hold-up men whose ages ranged from seventeen to fifty-three years old, were held without bail by Magistrate Simpson in the Washington Heights Court, Monday morning, for a preliminary hearing Wednesday.
The men were heavily guarded when they were brought before court to await their counsellor's plea for an adjournment. They were in single file. Each man was held in the collar by a detective.
The accused burglars gave their names as William Daniels, 17, 162 West 133d street; Paul Smith, 53, 23 West 133d street; George Simmons, 32, 55 West Ninety-eighth street; Solomon Bailey, 22, 262 West 132d street; David Watson, 20, 451 Lenox avenue; Winston Thorne, 19, 101 West 136th street; Edward Brown, 28, 68 West 133d Street; Leroy Reed, 21, 226 West 140th street.
Reed and Daniels were arrested on suspicion at 141st street and Lenox avenue, Sunday afternoon, by detectives from the 135th street police station. While the prisoners were being questioned at the station, Robert Colbert, 7 Pratt avenue, Brooklyn, came to the station and identified them.
Following the confession of Reed and Daniels, a concentrated effort was made by the police to round-up the other prisoners. Later during the night a number of insurance collectors who claimed that they had been victims of the hold-up men appeared at the station.
Aloysius Healey, 1 Post Road, Bronx, said that Saturday all eight of the men threatened to kill him in the hallway of 139 West 143d street, and robbed him of $30.
between Chattanooga and Jacksonville, and from the report that the car was seen in a Florida town, it is believed that they made their way to that section.
Sheriff Selman, through his deputy, Charlie Taylor, of Hamilton County, and Sheriff Baker of Bradley County, are active in an effort to apprehend the two men. Governor Austin Peay authorized Sheriff Selman to offer $200 reward for apprehension of the slayers.

"Once a crook, always a crook," Judge Mancuso shouted in the General Sessions when he sentenced William Green, 30, 122 West 134th street, to 20 years in Sing Sing prison at hard labor. A jury found him guilty of robbery in the first degree. Mrs. Jessie Holt, white, 319 West 150th street, brought the charge against the prisoner. Mrs. Holt testified that on September 23 the prisoner invaded her apartment, selzed her by the throat, and with a large carving knife in his hand, dragged her to the roof of the building, there as saulting her and stealing $7.75.

---Man of Action
QUIET, determined looking man, dressed in a worn
A gray business suit, low tan shoes and a shirt with a
soft collar; a man who is courteous and considerate
to everybody who meets him; a man ever ready to listen
and learn; a man of action rather than of words. Such is
Frank D. Waterman, the Republican-Citizens’ candidate
for Mayor.
While Mr. Waterman is a self-made and very success-
ful business man, the head of a huge manufacturing and
distributing organization, the home of which has been in
New York City, yet he has never grown out of touch
with the worker. the man who has to support himself or
his family on daily wages or a salary.
‘here is a reason for this. Frank D. Waterman has
himself known poverty, He was the support of his wid-
owed mother and small sisters and brother at the early
age of fourteen, when he became a wage-earner at $3 a
oe.
By his own efforts of hard
work, courage, and determina
tion he has built up one of the
lurgest businesses in the city.
But what Frank D. Waterman
ig especially proud of is tie
fact that his employees, and
there have been and are thon-
sends af them both men’ and
women, have been and are ‘ab-
solutely loyal to him, They
cnnsider hin as one. of them:
selves, and they know that !€
any one of them has a just
complaint or suggestion. to
wake, Mr, Waterman will see
that they receive fair play and
consideration.
In many big businesses there
is what is known as a “sity-
Restion box.” placed go that,
any employee or anybody else

ten complaint or suggestion,

Mr. Waterman has takes
prominent part. [e, wants 1.

Recentiy on this potnt Mr.
Waterman said:

Later T found that ther wero
waiting for me to offer my ser-
vices, When I did, 7 found
tint they wero gladly re
ceived.”
While able to afford to rida
anywhere {n a Mmousine, Mr.
Waterman during his work
rides dafly in the subway. His
experience in riding tn the sub-
ways during the crowded rush
hours made him, like every:
ody elso who has had the
Fame experience. disgusted
with the continued delay uf
politicians in ‘mproving | su-
way conditions. He started to
do what he could about it.
He got the signatures of citl
zens to a giant petition to pre-
sent to the Mayor and city au-
thorities, who were talking
but not doing anything about
the matter. Fe organized this
movement and presented this
petition with nearly 200.0%"
names to the Mayor and the
Board of Estimate, with the
request they Say it with shov-
cls." ‘This started digging a/-
ter years @f inactivity and
talk.
Mr, Waterman has taken the
awful conditions in subway
.travel to heart.” He feels that
it is & positive crime the war
men, women and children ure
forced to travel packed in like
beasts, He feels that this fx
especially hard on working wo:

Mr. Waterman said to him

to the modest apartment of

where Mr, Waterman changed

children, who, needless to sy,

Being essentially a worker

for Mayor of the City of New
York. he believes taat subwar

while still preserving the five-

And promises made by Mr
Waterman are very different
from the sort of promises that

with Ifutle idea of ever curry

Protecting Your Health
By PHILIP P. JACOBS, Ph.D.
Most peuple take health as a matter of course, like the
weather. Seldom do they think of it and never do they
give it very much concern until perchance they have lost
some or all of it, Then they are mightily concerned, Far
Jess do they realize what sacrifices have been made and are
being made every hour of the day to preserve this priceless
boon of health and life fer them.

Best Sport Pages In Greater New York RENAISSANCE DEFEATS ASSUMPTIONS Completes Plans for Howard-Lincoln Game Edited by Romeo L. Dougherty
Ricks Stars for Renaissance Sunday; Georgie Fiall Again in Line-Up
Crack Colored Team Stops Famous Assumption Five and Will Prepare to Meet Far-Famed Union City Five Coming Here for Big Game Sunday Night
Basketball has come into her own again this season, and with the added interest of white fans that will soon bring a large number of the members of the opposite race to Harlem to see the crack Renaissance Big Five, under Bob Douglas, in their games against the best white teams in the country.
Long before the whistle had started the boys on their way last Sunday night scores of white fans were on the side lines, and when the Assumption Five arrived from Brooklyn they brought with them another batch of rooters that helped to cep up the enthusiasm during another encounter that gave our boys an opportunity of appearing at their best.
"Red" Canarty, famed on the court these many seasons, put forth a brand of ball for the Assumptions that gave the thrill that brought forth applause time after time in behalf of the visitors, but New Jersey mosquito, "Tapp" Ricks, hns struck his season's form and he starred for the colored players, ably supported by the other men on the team.
The Renaissance players stopped the victorious drive of the Assumptions by a 29-20 score. Before the end of the last half news arrived at the Casino they Los Angeles stars had defeated the world champion Colts by a 22-20 score and those bearing the information needed honors for the Renaissance team; it will be represented that two weeks ago the Douglas-men defended Sunday night's competitor of the Colts by a score of 12-7.
The coming Sunday night at the Regalissance Casino the Regalissance Hotel will look up with the Union City Big Five. This team comes with a big reputation from Union Hill, N.J., and believe they can stop the drive being made by the colored boys, for their big game with the Celtics on the court before the season ends. The local players made the trip to New Jersey last Saturday night and had the tree of their dreams, the UConn Husky passers, lost this Sunday night they prepaRED to go after the white boy, who everything and the contest promises to be one or the most closely contested anyone this season as the visitors lost by only two points to the Renaissance, to later defeating them by a half score.
We understand that the Thanksgiving night game will be staged at the Reposalance Casino in which the local team will defend their home game, another star white organization. This will be the after dinner game to be offered at Harborside and the season will carry a gay throng. A fine house again turned out that Sunday night which is an indication of the popularity of the Sunday night games mentioned for the first time at the Reposalance casino.
Crack Vandals Take Opening Basketball Tilt
NIL NAPK, FYL. N. J.-The Vandersham teamed the local basketball season defeating the Flashes, Big Five of Philadelphia, 21-16. In the local squad were: Gill Howard, Back Dorsey, Babie Brown, Logs Lee, Crawford Gregory, Float Freeman, Rube Albey, Eddie Rimold, and Elmo Jackson. Freeman, Gregory and Lee returned after an absence of two years and were given a big hand by the immense crowd. Lee showed a flash of old-time form, with three baskets; Howard and Albey had two aplace. Runsome and Claxton starred for the visitors, scoring four times from the field. The game played on the open court at Waltz Dream Hall was clean and fast throughout, Sawyer vefteeing and Hailey of Philadelphia unimpiring in the first half and alternating in the second. But seven fools were called in the entire game.

Florida "Wildcats" Lose to Tuskegee by Overwhelming Score of 40-0
Florida "Wildcats" Lose to Tuskegee by Overwhelming Score of 40-0
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, ALA.
O. O. Coach Blackus of the Florida A. and M. College, Tallahassee, a former pupil of Clive L. Abbott, the early Tiger mentor who last year served as assistant coach on the Crimson team, brought his Widows to Tuskegee today and saw them smothered to 6 in a game in which the basky Tigers were never oblited to avoid themselves. Although unimpressed, the game was not without its thrills, and players on each team gave a good exhibition of useful teaching.
The honor of re-referring the first touchdown in the game today goes to Ernest O'Bailley of Columbus. Nice, who carried the ball over carry in the first quarter. Stevenson kicked goal. Bailley will also responsible for the next touchdown, which was made in the first quarter. Stevenson misjuded the try for point. Score, first quarter. Tuskegee, 13; Florida, 6. It was Bailley again who carried the ball over for the third count and Stevenson kicked goal. Stewart of the hard carrying midkick registered the fourth touchdown when he checked left and for eight yards. Stevenson kicked goal. Scoring crunched until the fourth touchdown. First half. Tuskegee, 13; Florida. The effort on the part of the Wildcats, to ad agree the ball through the air was of no avail. While several of their short passes were completed, the game were not worth it.
In the fourth quarter Jopper crossed the last mark, twice the contourleads, and it breezed on, was able to linger the more once for the extra point. Tuskegee, 40, died.
Streemann played in form. His running, passing and kicking were features of his work that kept the sidelines constantly thrilled. Smith, the quarterback, showed excellent generality; his recurring punts and broken foul work stood out. Taqlock, contain; Robinson, end; Duncan, Kitchen and Ellis did work of a high order.
Devereaux for the Wildcats did as clean a piece of tackling as has been seen on the local field this season when he brought down Stevenson from the rear after he had made a sensational run of 62 yards, Briggs, captain, and Moore a forfeited championship team, did some outstanding work for the Wildcats.
It was plain evident that the men from the land of fruit and flowers were no match for their heavier opponents, who, through the four periods, played with them like a cat might toy with a mouse and then, ferocious like, with a driving attack, engineer the ball to a vantage point, and a Crimson player would be detailed to go over for a touchdown.
In the campaigned the flashy Wild cat team, Tuckeegue were a group of forty teachers and students, including Prof. J. R. E. Lee, the president of the college.

Howard - Lincoln Classic Negotiations for Big Philadelphia Park Closed
Game Now Assured at One of the Best Gridirons in the Country and Ample Provisions for Handling Crowd Made
The Lincoln University Athletic Association has issued the following statement to Dr. W. G. Alexander, graduate manager: The delay in making any announcement regarding the annual football classic between Howard University and Lincoln University has been due to negotiations, which have been pending, for the park where the game will be played.
The management is pleased to inform the public that it has been fortunate in securing for the annual classic this year Shibe Park, which is the playing ground of the American Baseball Club in Philadelphia. This park is located at 21st street and Lolgh avenue, and is in the same neighborhood of the National League Park, where the games have formerly been played: shibe Park is only a few blocks distant from the North Philadelphia station, and is conveniently accessible to motorizing partners from out-of-town places. The outside surroundings of the park are very desirable. All of the streets, near the park, are wide, and there is ample parking space for automobiles. It is impossible to have any of the congestion which has prevailed at the former games in Philadelphia.
The park authorities are under contract to provide ample police protection for the large crowd, both inside and outside of the park, and an abundant of experienced uppers will insure the holders of reserved seat tickets, their proper seats, in the leaves and standstaff. Shibe Park has 2,500 box seats and the park accommodates, easily 10,000 people. The playing field has been so arranged that all box seats and reserved seats are on the side lines. Both the Howard and the Lincoln sections will be the equivalent seats. Box seats will be 2,200 each, reserved seats, 12 each and general admission, $1.50. Tickets will be on sale in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, New York and Pittsburgh.
Reservations may be made directly by writing to the Lincoln University Athletic Assn, ticket reservation bureau, Lincoln University, Pa. General information may be obtained from Dr. W. G. Alexander, graduate manager, 48 Webster place, Orange, N. J.
Monarch Band Ready for Concert at New Star
When the Monarch Band appear in their annual concert Friday night, November 6, at New Star Casino, the public will be afforded an opportunity to demonstrate its appreciation of one of the most famous bands in the world of our race.
For this occasion Lieut. Simpson has arranged an excellent short band concert, which in itself will be worth the price of admission. Following the concert, a selected orchestra of 2x musicians will play the finest dance music heard in many days at New Star Casino.
Monarch Band has reached the size that you can afford, an advertisement most fortunate for the need to bring a crowd. On Friday night it is likely that New Star Casino will hold a record-breaking gathering, as New York is proud of its crack band, and no doubt will do all it can to show its pride. An evening of rare pleasure is in store for all.

Howard University Eleven Swamps North Carolina State College 70 to 0
Howard University Eleven Swamps North Carolina State College 70 to 0
WASHINGTON, D. C., October 51. The Howard University football ball eleven scored an easy victory over North Carolina State College of Durham, N. C., in the game played between the two schools on the University Campus on Saturday October 31, the score being 70 to 0. The air was filled with Howard passes, with Campbell and Long the "Bisons" sterling ends, doing the receiving. The "Bisons" used two different teams, one in each half. Both were smooth-running machines, which gained ground through the "Tarheels" line at will and broke up every attempt of the North Carolinians' chance even to score a first down. Payne, stellar quarterback of the "Bisons," was in his element. He dropped a field goal from the 35-yard line and added four extra points after touchdown in the first half as the result of splendidly receiving passes. "Tick" Smith, halfback of the "Bisons," smashed through the
Schoolboy Champion Covers the Course in Fine Time in Cross Country Event
Despite Muddy Ground and Stiff Wind Gus Moore, Crack Harrier of Boys' High, Romps Home Winner
Gus Moore, star harrier of the Boys' High School, stamped himself as one of the great schoolboy athletes developed in the metropolitan district when he led home a field of about 275 bill and dancers in the first annual running of the cross country event under the auspices of Manhattan College at Van Cortlandt Park on Saturday. Hand trapped by muddy ground and a stiff wind that swept across the park, the colored champion was clocked in the fast time of 13.20 for the two and one-half mile course. Roland Ritchie, captain of the Schenectady High School harriers, placed second, fifty yards behind the leader.
Schemeday, winner of the recent upset R. P. I. run, captured the team trophy with the excellent score of 51 points. St. Benedict's Dip. of New Jersey, scored second honors with 138 points, while Newtown, P. S. A. L. team champions, in third position with 133 points, was the first of the local schools to finish. La Salle High School, of Philadelphia, displayed a brief show of talent with barriers in fourth, fifth and six positions, but the remainder of the team finished far in the ruck and the Quaker school had to be content with fourth place in the team scoring.
Moore left no doubt as to his superiority. He assumed the lead after a furling, followed by Ritchie, and Roth, of Stuyvesant. The trio easily drew away from the field and entered the final stretch. Moore enjoying a five-yard lead over his upstate rival. The colored lad's superior staying powers came to the front and he increased his advantage to 50 yards at the tape. Ritchie, who might have given Moore a closer struggle, had he been possessed of knowledge concerning the course, led Roth by more than 100 yards.

line for two touchdowns in the first half.
The substituting eleven had no trouble in piling up a score of thirty-three points in the second half. Tyson and Carter carried the ball over twice for touchdowns in the second quarter, and Dodson rushed it across once. Cole dropkicked three extra points after touchdowns out of five chances.
Williams and Meekins were the outstanding players of the North Carolina State aggregation.
All eyes of the football world are now focused on the game to be played at Washington, Friday, between Howard and Wilberforce, the team which upset Lincoln's hope for another championship among the "Big Three."

Ethiopia Failed to Stretch Forth Her Hand Saturday at Commonwealth
Ethiopia Failed to Stretch Forth Her Hand Saturday at Commonwealth
But Hopes for a Bigger and Better Night Rose With Announcement of Appearance of Young Dudley and Black Bill This Week-end
Ethiopia failed to stretch forth her hand last Saturday night at the Commonwealth Sport Club and the result was that all men of color retired sadder but wiser pugilists after the white boys had "struffled their stuff" and left the roped arena victors.
The four-round and six-round houts were easily taken by the white boys, then came Willie Makel of Washington, who will some day wake up to the realization that his opponents are blessed with mid-sections that openly invite but Willie, always intent on using the blow of which he seems capable, a sweeping right, believes that he has been required to run for the face, and the face only.
Two things were given to Willie Cunningham many nights. First, he was given a sound hearing by Al Gordon of Philadelphia, and secondly, he made a recipient of a draw session, when, by all the rules of the game, it should have gone to the Philadelphia. A wag in the machine witnessing the disaster stuck to the colored fighters' hongals' glue wondered why Tom Fahy seemed to be favored the kids and religiously irons in the corners of about all the colored fighters at the Commonwealth, Tom said, the wag a few days back of us, "and twenty-three fighters in his career. He lost seven, got a draw in four and may he won two." Our personal observation is that the majority of fighters seconded by Tom came to have the Indian Sign bung them by their opponents. This had been a lighter fight, he came to these, appears to be able to escape the attack at least at the Commonwealth Club.

Aslin Says Jazz Is Foreign
(Preston News Service.)
ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 27—In an open letter to the Atlanta Journal Charles Astin, of College Park, Ga., does not agree with those who claim that jazz music is a product of the American Negro. A few weeks ago Percy Grainger, a distinguished American pianist, returned from an extensive tour of Europe and reported that jazz music was exceedingly popular throughout Europe. Mr. Grainger said: "Jazz is the natural music of America, and owes its popularity to its thorough originality, and is the musical offspring of the American Negro." Mr. Astin says:
"The statement that jazz music originated with the Indians and Negroes is wrong. There is no such thing as jazz music, and the word itself is the ugliest word in the English language.
"Jazz was of Turkish and Egyptian origin. It was a dance in the dark. The only music was a muffled drum, the dancers making graveyard shrieks and groans. The Turkish government passed a law against the Jazznetts in 1825.
"The word 'jazz' has never been and never will be in a musical dictionary. The nearest approach we have had staged in this country to jazz was presented by Lewis Morrison in the shell" scent in Faust.
"The Indians had a war yell or cry, but their music was in a way very pretty and attractive. They cut canes of different length and tied them together, passing these across the lower lip and blowing into the canes—whooping now and then to produce a sound which the canes could not produce.
"In 1893, at the suggestion of I. E. Orchard, Dvorak wrote me from New York for some of the Negro melodies, and I furnished him eighteen original melodies. I have since found out that the Indians started some of these. Dvorak did not use any of the melodies I sent except to color the New World Symphony.
"When I was seven years old an old Negro woman, 103 years old, told me the sounds of the Indian quille. That was 53 years ago, so I have 153 years to go on in my knowledge of say. This old woman was born a month after her mother lanced the Negro Africa. She died in the Campbell County poor house in 1872.
"The Indians never used over five quille, and they were in a minor key, the second note being flat. Their phrases were short and swift."
the same club in his two appearances, will try to pull the same stunt on Manuel Flores. Oh, it is going to be a hot time in the old town this coming Saturday night at the Commonwealth and the festivity will be out in large numbers.
Urban League Launches 2d Annual Charity Ball
By MRS. H. BINGA DISMOND.
Friday, November 13, will be bad luck to all who do not attend the Second Annual Charity Ball under the auspices of the Women's Auxiliary of the New York Urban League. As last year, the dance will be held at the New Manhattan Casino, and to elude the jiw that is supposed to bound us on Friday, the 15th, the public is advised to appear in fancy dress. The hundred ladies of the committee who will appear as Shebaa, Gypsies and Queens are making elaborate plans for their personal costumes and for the decoration of the Casino. Everyone is urged to enter into the spirit of the affair and make Friday, November 13, a night of good luck and much merriment.
Mrs. Eva Parks, chairman of the committee, will be assisted by Mrs. Sol. Johnson, vice-chairman; Mrs. A. C. Dening, who has charge of the tickets; Mrs. Florence Detl. Richardson, sponsor for the boxes; Mrs. Esther Archer, chairman of the program committee; Mrs. Leah K. Walker, who will be responsible for the music; Miss Josephine Woolf, chairwoman of the Mrs. Lois A. Corbin, chairman of finance; Mrs. Binga Dismond, treasurer, and Mrs. L. E. Keneely, secretary.
Members of the Auxiliary who were present at the first meeting on Wednesday evening, September 30, at the urban League office, included: Mrs. Adelaide N. Griggs, Mrs. Esther Archer, Mrs. Antoine ette Deming, Miss Nelle R. Calloway, Mrs. Louis A. Corbin, Mrs. Hattie Ramsey, Miss M. Josephine Wooten, Mrs. Rosa L. Larris, Miss Andrades S. Lindsay, Miss Lillian Smith, Mrs. Mae E. Hubert, Mrs. Florence Del. Richardson, Mrs. Teresa Pelle, Mrs. Aelle Pelle, Mrs. Virgil Watking, Mrs. Binga Dismond, and Mrs. L. E. Keenury. On Friday, October 9, at St. Luke's Building, 125 West 130th street, the committee will hold a luncheon meeting. At that time complete plans for the benefit will be announced. Officers of the committee are desirous that each member notify the Urban League ent.

Saturday night last saw Eddie McMahon in full charge of the Commonwealth Sport Club as matchmaker.
Eddie has been associated with his brother Jess ever since the boys entered the sport world many years ago, and we look to see Ed giving fans at the Commonwealth the same good cards as has been the case ever since the McMahons took over the management of the Casino, built and owned by the Fordion Brothers.
As quiet as it is kept, the McMahons have meant a great deal to us in what little success we have gained in the amusement world. We did not have to rush and join the populace in shouting our congratulations to Jess when it was announced that he had taken charge of the new Madison Square Garden as matchmaker. Through the courtesy of position in a position to know we had it but that negotiation with McMahon as Jesse remained close-mouthed about the negotiations, we kept quiet in spite of the announcements which first came out in the big dallies.
Straking of the new matchmaker at Madison Square Garden reminds us that already the hand of the new incumbent is being seen and felt. A strong rumor comes to us that Jess is busy trying to arrange a catch between George Godfrey and Gene Tunney. Tunney, while Harry Wills and wife were enjoying a holiday in France, kept hollering for a chance to meet the Brown Panther. Let him fight Godfrey and we'll get a line on both of them, as George has also been making a great deal of noise about wanting to meet Harry. Our friend, Hollo Wilson, Philadelphia representative of the Pittsburgh Courier, has been Jim Lesterberry's man Friday in asking that Godfrey be recognized. Well, Rollo, here's a chance to boost a logical contest who is in the nature of a contest for center fielder, making his own optional captain for the heavyweight crown womby Jack Bommy. When they are all through well we'll step forward and put in a claim for John Lester Johnson, who is berring none and meeting all corners willing to meet him. We believe that Eddie McMahon will give John Lester another shot at the Commonwealth as soon as a prospect can be found who is willing to trade wallops with Johnson.
And now comes a white man who tells us a few things white people can appreciate from colored producers of musical comedy shows. There’s lots of truth in what Carl Van Vechten tells us in the October number of Vanity Fair. But we beg to differ with him an all-dark chorus, if the producer failed to secure that “rainbow chorus” of which he speaks, even Irvin C. Miller would hesitate at an all-dark chorus. And therein has a secret which even those of us belonging to the colored race have tried to hide from ourselves in the first place, because we are all black. We’re proud of our bright cabarets on Broadway and in Harlem for the past few years, and these same white men have been demanding nothing but “high yallers” for their choruses.
They have told us that their partners demand nothing but “high yallers” and this we can believe when we glim the male part of the white patrons who look with so much favor on the “yallers.” Aye, so much so many a wealthy son of high estate has spent many nights trying to get into the good graces of some of our popular cabaret and chorus queens. In fact, so far as the male part of the opposite race is concerned, they seem to be accustomed to as strong a leading for the “highs” as a male part of the lower class (this is the white) some white theatrical managers going so far as deserving their own race forever and, once they come under the spell of the “high yallers.”
So far as producing for our own people is concerned, even the colored small time prodigy has steered clear of mixing his chorus too much. The demand among our race is for anything from a sealskin brown up, the darker girls having a hard road to travel. If you doubt this, just watch the latest beauty contest and see how many among the darker girls will have a chance. This is a truth, unpleasant if you will, but you might as well face it. You confess to liking both black and white. On yes, we have seen the exceptions, but we are now speaking of the rule. In the meantime let us hearten unto Mr. Van Vochten as he is offering a few bids:
"Awaiting the appearance of a dusky Charlot or a chocolate Ziegfeld, permit me to offer a few hints to prospective purveyors of Negro revues. First and last: advertise for a dark chorus. I don't think it will be necessary to look for "chocolate to the bone" cues. Indeed, a fascinating effect might be achieved by engaging a rainbow chorus: six black girls, six "seal-brown's", six "high yellas" and six pale creams. With the proper costumes, and a director capable of contriving appropriate groupings, his disposition to see what might be dealt with with a bette, color, in case, for some reason, this scheme is found impracticable, as many dark girls as possible should be engaged. There are certainly many Negroes who prefer dark girls; white people who go to Negro shows expect to see them and are disappointed when they don't. Seek beauties who can dance and sing, and see that the lightest is about the shade of strong coffee before the cream is poured in, and I guarantee that your show will be a success even if you throw in all the old stuff, the cemetery scene with the ghost, the moon song, rendered by the tenor who doesn't know what to do with his hands, and the I want to be in Dixie, or the Mammy, or cotton-bale sons; it might be a stale force to deal with the repulsive liverlips and cork complexions of the comedians. I believe, if I were a Negro and it were my profession to make people laugh, that I could parry my material as successfully without these childish adjuncts as with them. At any rate it would be a welcome relief to see somebody make the attempt."
Coming back to where we left off, we do believe an all-dark chorus would be a novelty on Broadway in spite of any difference of opinion, and we join with Mr. Van Vechten in saying that it would be a welcome relief to see somebody make the attempt. If there's any colored person taking exception to these few lines from the typewriter of a colored writer, we beg them to look around carefully, do a little thinking, then open the things to be seen and tell Irvin C. Miller how come to the front and "glorify" the real dark girl like he has "glorified" the "high yaller" and "Sealskin Browns"? To be or not to be, Irvin? Ah! That's the question!

We shed a tear with W. Rollo Wilson at the passing of the great "Cum" Posey. Thirteen years ago the playing of Posey on the basketball court helped to lend inspiration to our pen and we shared the enthusiasm of countless numbers in the brilliancy of the work of the little Pittsburghian. Then time changed the order of things and season after season Posey furnished us, by his action and that of certain men surrounding him, with material which, while not in favor of the great "Cum," was eagerly digested by thousands of fans here and they never failed to give him the glad hand. So far as basketball in this neck of the woods can go, Posey joined that other well known character. The Little Napoleon, in exile, and on his last appearance not over a corporal's guard turned out to see his team in action. Ah yes, those thrilling days of basketball in old Gotham will never be forgotten. Those were the good old days. St. Christopher, Alpha, Spartan, Howard University, Monticello, Smart Set. Over night Pittsburgh came to town and by the splendid work of that giant crew, led by the beloved Posey, won thousands of friends. Those were the days when Brooklynites and New Yorkers travelled to New Jersey to see the subjects of no loss a personage than Jimmie Fultz, Czar of Newark, directing the attack of his famous Owls against the best we could muster. Then there were the Imperials with that widely known fashion plate as their spokesman, the homosexual Norman Goode, who made welcome to the friends of New York City in dance and with friends. From Jersey City to the Oranges we travelled in the interest of readers that had to have their basketball news served to them hot each week. Our thoughts would contain naught of Pittsburgh when time came for the boys from the "City of Smoke" to hit our town. There was Lewis, brilliant sport writer of the Pittsburgh Courier, ably assisted and abetted by Rollo Wilson, who still remains as Ambassador Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to keep up friendly relations between the State of Pennsylvania and the great Commonwealth,
W. Rollo Wilson, a player, ages ago the players inspiration to our numbers in the brief time changed the band us, by his action, led by white, led by black, led by the glad hand, So scared, it fell to out other well known on his last appearance this team in action both him will never Christopher, Alpha.

the Empire State of the Union. And now Rollo tells that Posey's
thoughts are like those of the Melancholy Dane, and with a dash of the
soul he says that Wilson says that outraged nature has decreed that it is NOT TO BE as she grins ardently on the emaculated frame of America's greatest colored basketball player, the once invincible Cumberland Posey.

The Sioux Indians took part in the greatest battle their tribe has fought for (fort) years during the filming of James Cruze's new Western epic for Paramount, "The Pony Express."
Not since the last battle of the last Indian war in the United States—the "Ghost Dance War" in Wyoming in 1955—have the Sioux been engaged in a battle of such magnitude.
"The Pony Express," coming to the Lincoln on Thursday next, features Betty Compson, Ricardo Certez, Ernest Torrence and Walter Beery. The screen play is by Winter Woods, from an original story by himself and Henry James Ferman.

DOUGLAS THEATRE
"The Coming of Ames" the Cecil B. DeMille production starring Rod LaRocque and Jetta Gould, which will be shown at the New Douglas Theatre Sunday and Monday, November 8, gives a long asked for opportunity to give vent to a whole column of pure enthusiasm.
It has surpassed fondest expectations. Rod LaRocque. In the leading role of Ames, gives a performance worthy of his role and of the story and has proven the trust which the greatest of filmmakers's producers bestowed upon him in elevating him to stardom. Jetta Goulda featured as the loading woman in the role of the beautiful Russian princess, takes every advantage to make her brilliant and colorful screen personality felt in her slightest move and action. Noah Berry as the villain is everything that a villain should be, could be and score.
This story runs along over the vast and spreading waste of an Australian sheep ranch; up and down the gay ways of the Riviera; in and out of beautiful nunsions along the path of love, hate, peril and intrigue.
Next Sunday, Monday and Tuesday the patrons of the New Douglas and Odeon Theatres will have an opportunity to see the world's famous Negro actor, Paul Robeson, in "Body and Soul," an Oscar Micheaux production.

Harlem radio 'sans will have a chance to see and hear the famous Clarence Williams Trio when they appear at the Lincoln Theatre, week of November 9. The trio will sing all of Mr. Williams' latest hits.
These numbers are published by
the Clarence Williams Music Publishing Company. This will probably be the last chance Harlemites will have to hear this famous trio for some time, as Mr. Williams is contemplating on making an extensive rudville tour over the Leew's Circuit. The trio consists of Mr. Clarence Williams, Miss Eva Taylor and Mr. Clarence Todd.
The Masquerade and Carnival of the New York Academy of Business at Manhattan Casino last Friday night experienced hard luck in that inclement weather prevented a large turnout at the affair.

There were some the representatives of all professions, business, college professors and presidents at the Colored Work Conference and the Fundings Committee brought out many points that will help to enlarge the scope of the Association work for years to come. The work of occupying unoccupied fields was given considerable time for discussion. On Tuesday evening, Dr. H. ii. Proctor of the Nazarene Congregational Church will begin a unique series of Bible studies in which he will interpret Biblical scenes in the light of his own travels, personal investigations and studies. The course is called "In the Footsteps of the Great From Cairo to Rome." The class will be open to men and the branch hopes that young men between the ages of 18 and 30 will take advantage of this study. Suppl will be served to members of the class promptly at 6:30 o'clock at a nominal cost, after which Dr. Proctor

The Employment Department, under the direction of Mr. Weatherless, is seeking applications for positions from men and boys who are dependable and want to work. We plans to open new avenues of employment so that our young men and boys may have higher types of employment. An attempt is being made to establish permanent relation between employers and the Employment Department of the Association, as well as a relation between men and boys of sterling qualities and the Carlton Avenue Branch.
The real "Y" spirit and a real service to the community are under invite all men and boys of Brooklyn to expect the building and join at once.

Harlem Woman Arrested in Brooklyn for Assault
Helen Brooks, said to be from Harlem, was held in $5,000 bail by U. S. Commissioner Rasquain, in the Federal Building, for action of the Grand Jury, on a charge of interfering with Government officers in the performance of their duty. Federal Narcotic Agent Collins, with a badly bitten and swollen right arm, told the Commissioner the Brooks girl had attacked him, and a partner in a Flatshut troller car on Oct. 22. The agents conducting a fugitive to Brooklyn Police Headquarters when the Brooks girl said to be a relative, suddenly attacked them and the prisoner followed her into action. Both yelled "Thugs!" and nearly escaped before the passengers in the car had discovered the men were Federal agents.

Spirituals Need Negro Voices for Adequate Interpretation
Spirituals Need Negro Voices for Adequate Interpretation
The announcement of Roland Hayes' next concert, coupled with that of the Fisk Jubilee Singers, brings to mind consideration of just what the new season will give us in the matter of presentation of Negro spirituals.
If any form of music has been overworked it is surely the Negro spiritual, which has been subjected to interpretations not only by members of that race, but also by every would-be "artist" of the concert and recital stages, as well as by radio.
At the outset of this dissertation let the writer make clear one point: Negro spirituals can never be properly presented in recital, whether visible or invisible.
We pause and await the onslaught that is sure to come after such a statement.
Now we present our reasons:
The Negro spiritual in its native heath is the outcome entirely of a great emotion, particularly under stress and evidences at times of great religious fervor. That atmosphere cannot be transported to any stage and therefore the interpretations cannot be representative of what these folk songs really mean.
The Negro spiritual in its entirety of a great emotion, par evidences at times of great religious cannot be transported to any other terrapetations cannot be represent songs really mean.
Our second point we also verser. It is that only Negro spirituals of their race. We are went to the extent that those in Southern States—the Old South, ed appreciation of the old slave are sincerely interested in this pathos and felling which these spirit

Perhaps the best concert we heard many—at least one that memory, was given to a house to even the most crowded public sell.
Picture a white pine, rainshares heart of a cotton plantation could be found in many places up-State and where really booms have not was not Dr. Hillis. Dr. Forshik He was a dark-skinned Negro of according to the modern intelligence emotion.

spiritual in its native heat emotion, particularly of great religious fervor sorted to any stage and not be representative of point we also expect to find only Negroes can practice. We are willing to that those born or the Old South, we mean of the old slave days, most rested in this form of which these spirituals at Home good fortune not so much the Negro spiritual. The Negroes perhaps retains of their race in our form of music for us to sing Northerner, to meet Jim Crow provisions in most concert we ever hear least one that will reen to a house that was provided public school in the pine, ramshackle chur plantation country, places up-State or in p rooms have not yet or this. Dr. Fosdick or our kinned Negro of the N modern intelligens. I only a good Methodist praying the days of Noah the midst of his "sermon" we can describe it—as parts, as true as though politian and an old folkoured forth.
Our second point we also expect to result in controversy. It is that only Negroes can properly present the spirituals of their race. We are willing to modify this statement to the extent that those born or brought up in the Southern States—the Old South, we mean—with an inherited appreciation of the old slave days, may possibly, if they are sincerely interested in this form of music, present the pathos and telling which these spirituals mean.
Spiritual at Home
It was our good fortune not so many moons ago to visit the land of the Negro spiritual. The South Carolinian and Georgia Negroes perhaps retain their heritage better than members of their race in other States. Being interested in this form of music for several reasons, our newspaper sense got the better of us and we made it a point, as an outrank Northerner, to meet this race, which is still subjected to Jim Crow provisions in parts of the Old South.
Perhaps the best convert we ever heard—and we have heard many—at least one that will remain long in our memory, was given to a house that was congested beyond even the most crowded public school in New York City.
Picture a white pine, rainshackle church building, in the heart of a cotton plantation country. Its counterpart can be found in many places up-State or in places on Long Island and where really booms have not yet come. The speaker was not Dr. Hillis, Dr. Forslick or our own Dr. Cadman. He was a dark-skinned Negro of the Negroes, an illiterate according to the modern intelligensia, but a man of vast emotion.
Exhorting as only a good Methodist brother can exhort, he was portraying the days of Noah: "Old Norah," as he had it. In the midst of his "sermon" came a wail—that is the only way we can describe it—and immediately we heard eight vocal parts, as true as though sung by an octet from the Metropolitan and an old folk song of the days "heir de wah" tourned forth.

Did our space permit, we would like to further describe that meeting; how the spirituals poured out in true emotion; how new converts were carried out unconscious, but still participating in one grand "halleujah"; how even the Caucasian landowners, seated in comfort outside the church, were moved and stirred as one song followed another.
That to our mind was genuine spirituals, properly interpreted and in the proper atmosphere, and cannot be duplicated. One might as well expect an E-skimo to give us German lieder as to hope that a Caucasian can interpret the spiritual as it should be done.
Negroes alone can give us that interpretation. Vocally they are adapted to this particular form of American music, and we sincerely hope that the white race will permit them to handle these folk songs. On the other hand, we wish that the Negroes who have outgrown their ancestry and are now multi-lingual in their speech will not forget that to them has been given a musical heritage of which they should be proud and not ashamed.

of Orleans desiring to join

News for application blank.
Such remarkable progress is be-
ing made by the Harlem Community
Chorus that members are be-
coming to ask when a public ap-
pearance is to be made. The
chorus has had only four rehearses,
which is far too few to set a
cate for a public appearance. Only
one thing is certain: The chorus
will not be presented in public un-
tility is thoroughly ready for such
an appearance. It is not the alm
of any chorus such as is in
any Sunday in all the
churches in America, but a chorus
which will compare favorably with
the best in the country, white or
black.
Once the members are convinced of this fact that the rest will be easy. Most of the members are beginning to realize that the Harlem Community Chorus is not to be just another chorus, and are making great sacrifices to attend each rehearsal on time, several members coming from clubs in New Jersey and Island. While the attendance so far has been good—very good when it is remembered that it has rained each Friday evening for the past three weeks—it is nothing like we should like to see it; or what it can't be if the chorus is to take its place in the musical world. Persons desiring to join the chorus should make application at once, because it may be found advantageous as a member, other than those with good preliminary musical training. The most urgent need is for good tenor voices. Applications may be secured at The Amsterdam News office.

Work of Harlem Tuberculosis Committee Praised by Hopkins
Work of Harlem Tuberculosis Committee Praised by Hopkins
"The Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee is a big part of our work and a creditable part," said Harry L. Hopkins, director of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association at the Christmas Seals Sale meeting held at W. W. W. 127th Street Tuesday for professional men and women, business men, social workers and interested lay persons in Harlem.
"There is scarcely another activity in this city." Mr. Hopkins continued, "that is receiving the marked co-operation of the professional men as the Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee at the present time. The work in this community will continue regardless of the amount of money raised locally, but the money will be dedicated to this year's Seals Sale the more shall we be able to spend on the fast-growing and much-needed activities of the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee."
Dr. Louis T. Wright, secretary of the Uptown Medical Society of Presbyterian Hospital, expressed the opinion that the secret of any successful campaign was to enlist the services of interested persons who were really "sold on the idea." He cited the recent Presbyterian

Dr. Alma M. Haskins, as the current topic reader, spoke on "The Young Negro's Opportunity in Harlem." A lively and interesting discussion followed.
Garland Anderson, author of "Appearance," and Charles Lane of the Dining Car Men's Home Association were introduced and spoke. Miss Elise Gordon at the piano, also Master Winston Collymore, vistinist, both of the Martin Smith School, rendered selections, while Miss M. Josephine Wootten served as the Forum accompanist. Mrs. Bessie Bearden, member of the local School Board, presided.

DOWNINGTOWN, Pa. Nov. 1.—Dr. Robert T. Kerlin, author of several books on Negro posts and literature and professor of English at West Chester State Normal School, was the speaker at the venerable services here Sunday.

campaign as an example of a drive that had developed itself through this means and suggested that the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee get five of the busiest men in Harlem to broadcast the Christmas Seals Sale.
"Always get the men," Dr. Wright pointed out, "who are making a sacrifice by going out on this job, because these are men whom the people know and to whom they will take the time to listen. I sincerely feel that by interesting some of our busiest men the Seals Campaign can be put over in this area with much success."
Dr. C. A. Norman, representing the dentists, gave the annual report of the North Harlem Dental Clinic.
A brief account of the progress that has been made by the Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee was given by Mrs. Mubel Doyle Keaton, the Executive Secretary.
"The work could not have progressed without the help of the many friends in this community." Mrs. Keaton said, "and I am confident that they will aid us again in helping to make our Seals Campaign a success." The need for informing the community as to the relationship between the activities of the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee and the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association was emphasized by Mrs. Katherine Wells Whipple, secretary of the Extension and Development Service of the latter organization. She pointed out that while city-wide as we as local publicity was given to the general activities of the New York Tuberculosis and with Association, it was important that the local people are informing their friends the specific activities which this organization is making possible in Harlem through its Harlem Tuberculosis Committee.
Thomas Dyett, well-known lawyer, who is chairman of Harlem's 1925 Seats Sale Campaign, acted as chairman at this special meet.

- Thanksgiving Proclamation
By the President of the United States of America
The season approaches when, in accordance with a long-established and respected custom, a day is set apart to give thanks to Almighty God for the manifold blessings which His gracious and benevolent providence has bestowed upon us as a nation and as individuals. We have been brought with safety and honor through another year, and, through the generosity of nature, He has blessed us with resources whose potential in health is almost incalculable; we are at peace at home and abroad; the public health is good; we have been undisturbed by pestilence and catastrophe; our harvests and our industries have been rich in productivity; our commerce spreads over the whole world, and labor has been well rewarded for its remerative service.
As we have grown and prospered in material things, so also should we progress in moral and spiritual things. We are a God-fearing people, who should set ourselves against evil and strive for righteousness in living, and observing the Golden Rule we should from our abundance help and serve those less fortunately placed. We should bow in gratitude to God for His many favors.
Now, therefore, I, Calvin Coolidge, President of the United States, do hereby set apart Thursday, the twenty-sixth day of November next, as a day of general thanksgiving and prayer, and I recommend that on that day the people shall cease from their work and, in their homes or in their accustomed places of worship, devoutly give thanks to the great majesty for the men we have received, and to seek His guidance, that they may deserve a continuance of His favor. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and

About the time that Grover Cleveland was ending his term of office as President of the United States, Sergeants John Hurt and Joseph Zimmerman, the latter white, enlisted in the army as back privates.
Active in service, with perfect records for thirty years, was the attainment of both men. Major-General Frederick Sladen, commandant of the United States Military Academy at West Point, honorably discharged them last week.

"Guardsmen Can Make West Point"
"Guardsmen Can Make West Point"
[Editor's Note]--The Amsterdam News reports herewith an important announcement from the PASMAN, a magazine published in the interest of the New York National guard, in the hope of securing an important area of the south infantry to attempt to gain entrance into the West Point Military Academy.
Enlisted men in the National Guard are to be given an opportunity to enter the United States Military Academy at West Point, after passing examinations, which are to be held November 6 and 7 next at various points throughout the State, to be announced later.
An enlisted man who desires to take the preliminary examination must forward through his company and regimental commander an application in the form of a letter so that it will reach the Adjutant-General of the State at Albany on or before November 2.
In the application the date of birth of the candidate, whether he is married or single, his grade and his organization, his previous service, if any, the date of enlistment and discharge and permanent post office address must be set forth. Applicants will be required to
Applicants will be required pass a physical examination similar to that necessary for entrance to the United States Military Academy before taking the preliminary examination. The order just issued sets form specifically the requirements the enlisted man must have to be eligible to take the preliminary examination for admission to West Point.
The requirements are as follows: "To be eligible for appointment from the National Guard, an applicant must, at the time of designation, be an enlisted man of a unit recognized by the Federal Government. He must, on the date of admission, July 1, 1926, have served as an enlisted man not less than one year; must be between the ages of 19 and 23, and must be not less than 5 feet 4 inches in height. The age and service requirements are statutory and cannot be waived or modified, but it is not essential that the service be continuous, so that former service in the National Guard may be counted in determining the eligibility of the applicant. Similarly, service with an organization prior to its recognition on the Federal Guard may be considered the date of enlistment of the officer governing, and not the date of the recognition of the unit. No candidate will be admitted to the Academy who has, at the time of presenting himself, any disorder of any infectious or humoral character. Candidates must be unmarried."
The office of the Adjutant-General will furnish to the commanding officer requesting the information a pamphlet issued by the War Department, giving all the requirements for entrance to the United States Military Academy and showing the nature and scope of the entrance examinations.
The candidates who will present themselves for examination at West Point, after the preliminary examinations, will be selected by Gov. Smith from the successful competitors. They will report for entrance examination which is scheduled to be held beginning March 2, 1926. Appointments will be awarded in the order of merit on July 1 of the same year.
While the number of candidates from the New York National Guard for the regular entrance examination to West Point has been fixed at thirteen, it is believed that additional candidates will be allotted to this State later. There is no limit as to the number of enlisted men who may take the preliminary examination.
The examination which guardsmen must pass to be eligible for appointment to West Point will include these subjects:
Algebra, including quadratic equations and progression; English literature, plane geometry, English grammar, English composition and general and United States history.
The examinations in algebra and history will be held on November 6, and those in grammar, geometry, composition and literature on November 7.

Business Principles
Business Principles
By C. E. ARMSTRONG.
More and more each year students of our race group are being graduated by the business school. We have learned through economic discrimination and disfranchisement that a group, community or organization must achieve a place among the other leading races through their ability to trade. In other words, a race rises to a pre-eminent place through its commercial activities.
Modern business is a science just as is medicine or dentistry, and to be conducted successfully it must be conducted along scientific lines. It was a very popular idea among people of our race to have a preacher, doctor, or dentist, or a lawyer head any organization ordered to have been successful in any of these professions and still have made a poor business executive because he was out of his element.
The conditions in business and the methods used are constantly changing. The method used one year might be obsolete the next. Machinery installed at the expense of millions is scrapped and sold for junk the next year.
All this cost must be met by business and has to be distributed pro-rata among every customer of the enterprise. So keen is com-
Racial Dealing in America Praised
King Amoah, Sailing for Home, Says France Alone Is Fairer
g in raised American Worker Most Contented
Excepting only France, King Nana Amoah III, of the Fantee, an African tribe of the Gold Coast, is of the opinion that Negroes are treated better here in America than anywhere else in the world. This statement was made just before the king sailed on the Cunarder Berengarh after a month's study of the relationship of the two races in the United States. The king denied reports that he was urging an emigration of Negroes to Africa.
"What I did say," the king explained, "was that the black people in America should be proud of the fact that they are Africans and they should adopt the name African and use it. I think that the place for the Africans already in America is America, where, through education and industrial advancement, they will in future generations be of great assistance to Africa."
A study of conditions here has convinced the king that the races cannot hope to develop along separate lines without an eventual clash. He intimated that intermarriage might be the solution to face problem here, though he admits it would be a mistake today.

petition that the price and quality of the product offered must be line with the price offered by other companies.
If the price is too high the firm will find itself in financial difficulties. To anticipate and be able to successfully solve these problem calls for keen business training. To put a man at the head of such an enterprise who has been trained in the medical science and expected to succeed is the height of folly. The many failures of enterprises within our group couple with the urgent need of commerce by our race group has been responsible for so many of our young men taking up the study of business as a life work.
There have been several lines of endeavor which our people have seemed particularly adapted to, such as poolrooms, dance halls and restaurants, these are starts in the right direction, but are too small in scope to afford much employment for our race, and until we get into larger scale business where we can enter the competitive fields of business and bid success against bargainers of other trades we cannot hope to recognition. We must be able to successfully compete in banking merchandising, manufacturing and foreign trade.
(Preston News Service)
CHICAGO, Ill., Nov. 1.—Commenting upon the American Negro Labor Congress, which closed here last week, Attorney Karl F. Phillips, Commissioner of Conciliation of the United States Department of Labor at Washington, who is making a brief review of the labor conditions in Chicago, said:
"The American working man or woman, white or black, native born or naturalized, busily engaged at a fair wage and under such normal working conditions, as are usually the rule rather than the exception, is the happiest, best paid, most contented worker in the world. This is the kind of a worker who, as the United States Secretary of Labor, James J. Davis, says has more gold in his teeth than other workers have in their nockets.
"This man or woman fully realizes that the Government of the people, for the people, and by the people holds just as high hopes out to him as it does to any other American citizen. He is satisfied to grow as his country grows, and to progress as it progresses. That the false hopes of some imaginary overnight transition do not disturb his work or his life is evinced every day in the happy homes and the many other rewards of labor, distributed all over America under the theory and practice of the most representative form of government that man, under the divine guidance of God, has yet perfected."

WASHINGTON, D. C. — One of the largest audiences of students and faculty that have assembled at Howard University this year greeted relatives of former presidents and other visitors from the National Council of Congregational Churches in Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel at noon. Tues-

of students and faculty that h
versity this year greeted rela
other visitors from the Natio
Churches in Andrew Rankin M
thay, Oct. 27.
The introduction of the guesty President Durkee was received with heart applause. The first to be introduced was the Cornellian son of former President W. W. Patton, and a graduate of the old academy. Mrs. Howard, wife of the nephew of the Governor O. O. Howard and an officer of the American Missionary Association came forward and great applause with the announcement of her presence. Later her husband, nee shew of General Howard and a son of one of Howard's earliest professors made her talk in which he spoke of the services of his father in the interest of Negro education in spite of the great hazard following the war. Mr. Bolfe, colleague, editor of "The Congregationalist" and a justice of Howard University, together with Judge McMillan of Chicago, an exmoderator of the National Council of Congregational Church, and a personal friend of General Howard, were introduced to the students.
The principal address was delivered by Rey Wynn C. Fairfield, a graduate of Howard University, who is now serving as missionary in China. He spoke very fondly to his experience at Howard from the early days of youth until his graduation from the preparatory department. He stated that while there might be others who could more fittingly represent the National Council than himself, yet he felt that one had a greater right to speak in the Rankin Memorial Chapel than himself, for he had owned its construction at the age of six years. He stated that he still measured in his archives one of the first competitions he ever wrote, which was at Howard University. He stated further that his educational foundation received at Howard enabled him to cope with other students whom he met from other schools and in country. He paid particular attention to the language and mathematical training which he had received under Profs. Lightfoot and Syriax. But more than this of getting value toward his fitness for his work in China was the spirit of brotherhood that was incubated on the Howard University campus. His eyes filled with tears as he recounted the experiences of his boyhood days at Howard.
Speaking of his work in China, Mr. Fairfield paid length on the theory of missionary, enterprise in the Orient, stating that the Orient has a history superior to our own and that any notion of racial superiority had been dissipated, finding in China, as he had found in Howard, that whether black or yellow, students having equal opportunities prove themselves equal in mental attainment. The answer to his query was both short and simple, yet most impressive from a humanitarian point of view. Said Mr. Fairfield, because the Chinese were leathal, but because they were human, squeezing that the great problem in China is the same as that of America, and the world over pumice.

The Choral Society, under the direction of Mrs. Lush N. Childers,endered the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel's "Nessiah" in mid-season form. Mr. Lester Dorsey sing "Tiring Home" as a baritone solo. His anguage was charmed with the clearness and range of his voice, revealing that wealth of soul power for which his race is particularly known.
At the conclusion of the services, the student body sang the alma mater with a feeling that more evidence of the inspiration received from the visitors and the old Howard spirit, which slumbered, can never dies. Following the alma mater, James F. Colb, a member of the senior class, led an appropriate yell, transforming the entire audience into a rejuvenated Howard vehicle.
Many other visitors in attendance upon the National Council of Congregational Churches, at the Washington Auditorium were present and were shown about the campus after the chapel services for special guides under the direction of the office of alumun and field secretary. The voluntary presence of such a large number of students with a most fitting tribute of respect to the founders and an evidence of appreciation for the privileges afforded to Howard.

on the sidelines, was shortening at both Bill and Jim, however their backs faced him; there was not little chance of Conrad heading out any legislative laws to the beachers, of whom there are humble one. And when he numbered those haleyon legislative days of the Lyer Bill, to nothing of the Spenser, Colter and McLean Bills, the last-named which was allowed to die in committee, we had to admit that associations had taken us a long way from the days of Thad Stewart and Charles Summer, when the civil Rights Bill was passed by congress and went to the U. S. Supreme Court for judicial interpretation before it became a "deadline."
What Is a Communist?
SINCE the Riffian and Moroccan disasters are receiving world attention, and masmuch as it is rumored that the arms of the Communistic Internationals are now endeavoring to enfold the black people of America, it is quite a fitting task to ask "What is a Communist?" A Communist is a member of the Communistic Internationale of Russia, the Constitution of which provides a number of striking activities, which make the articles of confederation of the seceding Southern States of pre-Civil War days seem like a mild-summer night's dream. Chief among the provisions of the Communistic manifesto and program are:
11. The proletarian class struggle is essentially a political struggle, the object of which is the CONQUEST by the Communists of the power of the State.
12. Participation in parliamentary campaigns, which in the general struggle of the proletariat is of secondary importance, is for the purpose of revolutionary propaganda only.
13. Communism does not propose to capture the parliamentary state, but to CONQUER and DESTROY IT.
14. In those countries where the conditions for a workers' revolution are not yet ripe, the same process will go on.
15. The Parliamentarism of the Communist party performs a service in mobilizing the proletariat against capitalists, emphasizing the political character of the class struggle.
16. The CONQUEST of the state is to be accomplished by FORCE and VIOLENCE.
(1) Strikes of protest are to develop into general political strikes and then into REVOLUTIONARY mass action for the CONQUEST of the power of the state.
An economist with the mind of a child, or a political scientist of morale knowledge, knows, of course, that since all labor is, at some time, capital, than an overthrowing of the Government in the fashion contemplated by the Communist Party, constitutes nothing more her less than the threat of a people seeking to destroy themselves. Such doctrines form no part of the principles of the representative form of Government, and there is no place in America for anyone who believes in force or violence as the destruction of property as agencies for the
!
overthrow or changing forms of organized human society.
Communication in America has failed among the whites, and that it will likewise fall among the blacks goes without saying. Hence thoughtless and disappointed human remnants of white communism, if they are tampering with America's loyal colored citizens, like a drowning man, grasping a straw, a straw which is far too weak to perform the Samson boat of pulling down the pillars of the temple of freedom to the destruction of self and of Government.
Steel and the Negro STEEL corporations. North and South, are reporting a tremendous swell in business, with corresponding profits and dividends to magnates, stockholders and investors. For instance, the Bethlehem Steel Corporation, with nearly half a million hands on its payroll, has just predicted a busy and profitable season. Birmingham and U. S. Steel are also feeling the steel market, which, because steel is such an important factor in manufacture, usually means a concurrent swell in the nation's business and commerce.
Under the partially-psychological presumption that because a black skin is superior to a white skin in the matter of heat endurance, Negro labor has enjoyed a larger participation in the labor essential to the steel industry than in any other single branch of industry. Under this weak guise, Negro labor has been employed in the steel plants at a good profit to itself and a better profit to its employers. Nevertheless, it is a happy truth that this black labor has been so largely included in the steel making occupations, regardless of causes and results.
Past United States reports, however, showed a disparity, prejudicial to Negro labor, of from one-half a cent to two cents an hour in its unit wages, as compared with the wages of white steel hands, working at the same occupation. Also, the dead water mark beyond which Negro labor has not beforeoften been able to advance into certain "choice" occupations, has been ever present in the Negro's history in the steel industry, to seem to us that the time is overdue when the powerful steel employers should shake up their consciences and raise their wage standards and conditions of labor to 700 per cent by giving the black steel hand his just due in an industry to which he has given Life's labor. The black steel hand has been "welfared" to death; and employment managers have cajoled him into false appointment; for just as many as penny or two is capped hourly from his wages, and just so long as his foremost representations are denied the goal of a single advanced occupation "reserved" for his white steel contemporaries, just so long will industrial inequality prevail in one of the nation's greatest industries—one which is creating the wealthiest operative classes in the country.
What unionization there is among the Negro steel hands has not been sufficient to bring about work equality. Nevertheless, if the union heads were sharply reminded they have not kept faith with Negro hands, some good might on site. In the meantime, however, and particularly now that the coffers of steel industries are overflowing with gold—the profit of honest efficient labor, the Negro
369th Bayonet Champions of 1925 at Peekskill
369th Bayonet Champions of 1925 at Peekskill
We present to our readers herewith (and it is going to be a surprise to some of them) the champion bayonet squad of the New York National Guard, that of the goof Infantry.
From time to time during the summer we have published articles on this course. The returns are now all in and the record for the year is truly a remarkable one, far above what anyone dared hope for when the course was started. One hundred and forty-nine men received the Bayonet Expert bar and many more missed by either a few points or a fraction of a second. With the interest stirred up this year, the practice obtained, and the new and improved run, which was completed late in August, 1926, should indeed produce some still greater results.
There was great interest in the number of qualifications from each regiment, both on account of the sporting features of the run and on account of the fact that bayonet qualifications carried a heavy pro-
tension toward the regimental ratings. However, when the 1926

Race Relations Committees Are Highly Praised
President Coolidge Commends South's Efforts for Racial Adjustment
WASHINGTON, D. C. Nov. 2. In an address before the International Y. M. C. A. Convention, in session here this week, President Calvin Coolidge paid a high tribute to the work of the interracial committees which have been operating throughout the South during the last six years. Commending the Y. M. C. A. as a unifying force in religion, industry and race relations, President Coolidge said:
"It was the American Association that established the interracial commissions, which it is generally agreed have been of great importance in the past few years in promoting better understanding and relations between the white people and the black people has been an inspiration to students of the problem of race relations in all parts of the world."
The interracial movement to which the President referred took form in Atlanta in 1919, with the organization of the Commission on interracial Cooperation and peace rapidly through the South, with the organization of hundreds of state and local committees. The purpose of the movement is to promote justice and goodwill between the races and enlist them in cooperative efforts for the common welfare. Similar commissions have since been set up in many northern cities, and in a dozen centers in South Africa.
Noted Indian Doctor Discovers Preparation That Grows Hair Two Inches Longer in Two Months.
Willing to Give Free Samples to All Readers of This Paper to Prove Merits of His Discovery
Several years ago in rural Valley Cal, two boys were playing a game of rock battle, and accidentally struck a middle aged woman. Dr. J. C. Delano, the founder of the World famous tattooed Thrasher This week called to dress the wound and found that the patient was suffering from a fractured skull and concussion of the head. Dr. Delano started in on his new case with a determination to belong to about satisfactory results; and at the end of the day completely cured but her hair over the brushed spot had grown such a remarkable degree that it crushed the curlyness of her hair so much so that the doctor questioned her as to what it was that she had been using on her hair during treatment. Her reply was that she had been using anointment prescribed by the doctor.
With the given information, the doctor started straightways into deep research to find the ingredients and its connections with the roots of the hair, and after experimenting for twenty-seven months, Delano announced in her herb, which when conceived with certain chemicals, and mixed together with pure Coconut Oil and California Pine Tar, would produce a healthy, luxurious growth of
After finding that the experiment had proved successful in ninety-nine out of one hundred cases, Dr. Delano placed his preparation on the market under the name of Dr. Delano's CocoTar Halb Grower. From that day until this present time the sale has been of phenomenal and uninterrupted success.
In Dr. Delano's research he discovered that falling hair was due to simple infections (Sehann) and that hair roots very seldom die. Remove the infected Sehann and the hair will grow for science has shown that under most bald scals the hair roots live.
Dr. Delano is so confident that his Coco-Tar Halb Grower is superior to any other on the market that he has decided to give a free sample to every trader of this power who will send him a order for the name and address to Dep 61 THE JERRIS COCO-TAR HALL S.M.C.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, NOV. 4, 1925
There was great interest in the number of qualifications from each regiment, both on account of the sporting features of the run and on account of the fact that bayonet qualifications carried a heavy premium toward the regimental ratings. However, when the 19th came along and qualified 16 men all members of the post staff said unanimously, "it is all over. No body else will beat that." This ophion held good for two training periods; the both and 14th and 15th, although doing good work, still failed to reach this total.
Than things began to happen. One bright morning the 15th arrived on the course, and when they departed, about an hour later, 23 of them had secured the covetable. Leaving Father Duffy behind to see that the 15th, who were to run immediately thereafter, should not receive any undue advantage from the presence of their own chapain, they departed to celebrate, everyone believing that the celebration would stand for a year. The 17th apparently did not share this opinion, for about an hour later they returned to camp, their head jointly playing "The Old Gag Man," and 11 bayonet experts marching at the head of the column.
What the 18th said to Father Duffy then, this most regrettable late, on his part, will probably never be known, but they took the fact as accomplished and only applauded the latter regimen of their breeds, saying that it was old in the family anyway.
When this brigade marched out the 160th marched in, took over look at the course, and said "We are oners. Here's where we are will shine." The post staff snubbed and waited for an awful tumbler's confidence. After observing the scene, they closed to suit and reserved inside seats for the qualification cut.
The 50th son was one of the features of the Summer. All realized that to beat the record of the 17th required two out of every three men must quality. Throughout the morning they stuck to the average, never far ahead, never behind, 10 out of 15.20 out of 50 and 20 out of 45 were called in turn. Then, with five men to go, one had to quality to tie and two to win. The first of the five failed. Amid great excitement the second man qualified. The record was tied. The third and fourth failed. It was all up to the last man, and he was equal to the occasion, leaving no doubt to cloud the issue and making 22 qualifications for the regiment.
The dignified colonel of the 50th at once proceeded to behave in a most undignified manner. He was enthusiastically followed by the regiment in "column of mob." A pleasant time was had by all.
Those were several reasons for the victory of the 339th. Fine physique and physical condition of the men selected to be trained, careful observation during their training so that the best 50 were selected for the final run, and, finally practice, practice, and still more practice, at all hours and under all conditions. Their final work showed the practice. Of the 15 men on all of their 40 who failed to qualify for least 50, 10 were prized and at best six more by fractions of a second. They earned all they got.
Take a look at the squad again and think how you would like to stand up in front of them in a final resort to cold steel. Those who saw them flash in and out of shell holes and finish with an assortment of red disks on their bayonets have no desire to be among those present on such occasions.
PENNSYLVANIA WOMAN
Discovers a Remedy That Grows Hair Almost Over Night.
Says She Is Willing to Give Secret to Anyone Who Wants Long Hair
After a long spell of sickness, Mrs P. O. Burton of 1337 Christian street, South Philadelphia, Pa., found herself in a terrible state and fell in handful and it was so short she could not fix it up in any style. She tried everything she could think of. Mr. Burton gave her the gift she gave up the thoughts of ever being able to get anything to give results, when she discovered that her hair had stopped growing and was gradually getting thicker. In the last preparation (which she made herself, and after a few months her hair was more enough to fix up in any style, Mr. Burton could buy it), she could be bought at any drug store, and that she is willing to give the secret to anyone who will write her the hair as a stumped, self-addressed envelope.
Note: Mrs Burton has nothing at all to soil, but of pure gratitude she is passing on the secret that gave her a send-stamped envelope to Mrs. P. D. Burton, 1337 Christian street, South Philadelphia, Pa.—(Adv.)
Howard Holds Third Annual Honors Day
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Ceremonies in connection with the Third Annual Honors Day of Howard University; were held in Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel, at the noonday assembly, Wednesday, October 28, 1925. Honors Day was inaugurated during the school year 1923 as an incentive to higher scholarship among the students of the University. The program for the Third Annual Honors Day included the following: Music by the University Orchestra; Roll Call of Honor Students, by Dr. Durkee, President of the University; Address, Dr. Charles Wesley, Professor of History, Howard University; The Honor Fraternity, a brief talk by Mr. Llewielw W. Davis, President Kappa Mu Honorary Society; and the singing of the Alma Mater.
The Grade "A" students for 1924-25 whose names were read on Honors Day are as follows: Theodore A. Austin, Demerara, British Guiana; Britton C. Baskerville, Newark, N. J.; Katherine H. Bingham, Washington, D. C; Ruth C. Brinkley, Washington, D. C; Charlotte Corbin, Washington, D. C; Llewelyn W. Davis, Hartford, Conn.; Melva B. Dier, Alexander, La.; Elijah H. Fitchett, Washington, D. C; John H. Harmon, Jr, Houston, Texas; Pearle H. Johnson, Washington, N. D.; Raymond A. Lemon, Washington, D. C; Glendon L. Logan, New York City; Genevieve L. Lonax, Blunfeld, W. Va.; Miriam N. Mulrow, Charlotte, N. C.; Percy E. Newbie, Brooklyn, N. Y.; Nolan A. Owens, Ashbury Park, N. J.; Enola V. Pettick, Baltimore, Md.; Carrie B.

Wright, Washington, D. C; and Edward Cheek, Camden, N. J.
An address, tracing the history of education up to the present time, was delivered by Doctor Wesley, of the Department of History. He pictured the new day when everyone will be serving for higher scholarship, and urged more students of the University to occupy places on the annual donor rolls. Dr. J. Stanley Durke, President of the University, in his talk, made the announcement that two professors of Howard have been awarded the degree of Doctor of Philosophy during the past year. Professor Motha Macleay, having received her degree from George Washington University, of this city, and Professor Charles Wesley, from Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts. The marked interest shown by the students of the University in Honors Day is indicated by the fact that there were only 13 honor students in 1925, 19 in 1921, and 30 on the roll this year.
Mr. Walter J. Upperman, a student of the University, in behalf of the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, presented a silver loving cup to the University, to be awarded each year to the freshman student attaining the highest scholarship that year. The name of the student winning this honor each year will be engraved on the cup. It was announced that Mr. Glendon L. Logan, of New York City, was the winner of the cup this year.

THE AMSTERDAM NEWS regrets very much that in its editorial last week we stated that the Democratic candidate for the State Assembly in the Nineteenth A. D. is a white person, when as a matter of fact he is John Milton Williams, a physician, living at No.46 West 131st street.
"How You Gonna Vote?"
AS WE GO TO PRESS (twenty-four hours ahead of our regular schedule, on account of the election), we ask this question: "How are you ganna vote?" After all, the question is rather personal and you are not obligated to tell a living soul how you are going to vote tomorrow morning. That's the reason the Election Commission provides private booths in which you are to mark your ballot.
THE MAIN THING about voting is to vote your convictions—what you really believe to be the issues involved and the candidates best fitted to put them into operation. If you believe with us that the Negro's interests and desires for political, economic and social advancement are best served by Republicanism, vote the Republican ticket, and vote it as STRAIGHT as is consistent with your convictions.
BUT, VOTING A STRAIGHT TICKET does not mean, necessarily, that you are called upon to support candidates for public office who have no convictions, even if they are flying the Republican banner. Voting a STRAIGHT ticket does not mean that you should vote for a man like Robert S. Conklin, candidate for Justice of the Supreme Court on the Republican ticket, who stands in the way of your advancement, who punishes those who aspire to leadership in a district — the majority of whose voters are Negroes, who holds office by creating dissension among us and rewards only those Negroes who are willing to keep him in power.
THAT kind of a STRAIGHT REPUBLICAN TICKET is CROOKED, and will remain crooked until you straighten it, which can only be done tomorrow in an election booth.
Amendments at a Glance
AMENDMENT NO. 1 provides that, "In addition to any other debt * * * the Legislature in each of the ten calendar years following the adoption of this section may authorize by law the creation of a debt or debts not exceeding * * * ten million dollars, to provide money for the acquisition by the State of real property and for the construction of buildings, works and improvements * * *."
VOTE YES.
AMENDMENT NO. 2 would authorize the Legislature, without further sanction, to create debts * * * not exceeding in the aggregate three hundred million dollars, to provide money for the citation, under State supervision, of railroad crossings at grade within the State, at the expense of
the State, railroad companies, cities, towns and villages." The State would contribute 25 per cent, communities 25 per cent, and the railroad companies one-half."
VOTE YES.
AMENDMENT NO. 3 involves virtually a complete reorganization of the executive departments in Albany. "The purpose and effect of this proposed amendment is to abolish the Constitutional offices of Secretary of State, State Treasurer, State Engineer and Surveyor, Superintendent of Public Works, Superintendent of State Prisons, the Canal Board, Commissioner of the Land Office and Commissioners of the Canal Fund and to establish twenty civil departments of the State Government."
VOTE YES.
AMENDMENT NO. 4 is another revolutionary measure which would practically make over the judicial system, particularly with reference to the city. Under this amendment the Legislature could alter existing judicial districts, increase the number of Judges and extend the powers of County Judges in Kings, Queens and the Bronx to other counties under certain conditions. The terms of such Judges would be advanced from six to fourteen years. Salary increases also are involved. A general revision of powers belonging to the Court of Appeals is contemplated, with the intention of expediting justice.

Expressed by Our Contemporaries
From the Boston Chronicle
Boston was "startled" this week over the report of the "line" draw at the Boston Athletic Association Club separating young Oswell from the white members of Boston University's football team solely because of his color. The "astonishing news" was neither astonishing nor news. It was not as unusual as some would appear to think. This line denominated "color" extends through many of the activities and is evident in most of the institutions here and elsewhere. We may close our eyes and pretend not to be startled when it is suggested or we may tend to be startled when it is emphatically called to our attention—but it is here.

We may close our eyes and pretend
It is here in the schools. Even in the most liberal of them color bars the way to almost all the privileges outside of the classroom. We have not forgotten the freshman dormitory affair at Harvard. Some of the Secrearial schools exclude colored students. A school of expression excludes colored students. Too many Negroes would cause the line to be drawn in a certain law school. It is here in business. Lack of experience, skill, honesty, temperament, etc., do not begin to disqualify like "color disqualifies for employment in any but mental unskilled occupations. Here and there we find exceptions to the rule but the number is small compared to the number of people unable to the job they are easily able to work out. It is here in the Christian Associations, both Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. A. Young man's color limits the number of his kind tolerated in the Y. M. C. A. An official of the Y. M. C. A. says: "If the number increases we would be forced to draw the line." A young woman's refinement, means and reputation is outweighed by her color in the dormitory or the swimming pool of the Y. W. C. A. "She can come into the classes or the cafeteria, but why should white girls be requested to sleep in the same rooms or swim in the same tank with colored girls?" This is a statement from a prominent official of the Y. W. C. A.
No, the color line is a fact in Boston and the most important thing is not what the white people are going to do about it. but what the colored people are going to do about it. And the apartheid people can do that down their hair would like to see that line blotted. Be not decoded by surface pretenses or fair words. In this soul the white man is a white man and the colored man is a colored man with all that that connotes to the white man.
To a self-respecting Negro it is nauseating to see the way some Negroes, in the face of the facts, still insist on playing the tolse to some white man's kite. Associated with him at best our position is secondary. Caesar preferred as he expressed it to the first in an Iberian village rather than be second at Rome. The Negro's status is going to continue low in the minds of others so long as he is contented to hang on to persons or places where he is not wanted. Is he too weak or tild to stand alone and to tell all go hang who would shim him as though he were a teper or a mad dog? When the Negro envises a justifiable pride in himself and his kind in the extent of preferring the association of his peers rather than insisting on tagging on to his self-appurions then will others think him a fit associator. When the color line quicker and more effectively by having him tag ourselves as the other group has in itself. We should not want to be with any man any more than he wants to be with us. When we can cease to pursue him or hang around his premises he will have more respect for us and less desire to be rid of us.
Perry Howard, Ex-Pullman Porter
ON 11TH. Pullman car where I am writing this word I have just heard a cheap passenger hawl out a vile epithet to the colored porter because the porter did not happen to hear the passenger call him as he was passing down the aisle. It happens that on this same car I had just had the nauseating privilege of reading Perry Howard's vile rot, as published on page two of our New York "Amsterdam News," of Oct. 14, in which he, as a hireling of the Pullman Company, opposes the efforts of Pullman porters to organize for their mutual protection and security. Long ago Perry Howard was a Pullman porter. He must have been one of the "good 'n——" kind—which explains many things in Perry's recent history that I had not understood until now. For instance, it makes no difference how much wealth or power a real "good 'n——" gets, he never ceases to be a "good 'n——" Once a "good 'n——" always a "good 'n——"
It has been a puzzle to me that a Negro of Perry flower's means and political position should crawl on his body and lick up the splitle of those who scorn and try to keep up his race. That a Negro who is well-to-do should do this for gain; that a Negro who has been honored should do this for favor. But how it is clear to me; that having been all his life a tawning tinkerer himself—both as a porter and as subsequent political slave—he can easily be hired to oppose the many effort of Sunday Pilman porters, who of their legitimate values tended and their manhood responded to as a little more independent of tips and the oaths of the boorish and even brutal section of the traveling public.
Not another class, of railroad workers, will accept either the wages or the treatment, accorded Pulman porters, and yet Perry Howard adduce it, in the name of his masters, and brought his opinion, to continue the twnn and be censured, and like
And, behold, Perry Howard calls the porters and their friends who would organize them for their legitimate advancement "Bolsheviks." We are prepared to bet Perry Howard ten dollars that, unless somebody else holds him, he cannot give and never in his life gave a sensible definition of what a bolshevik is. Why that Negro also called them who whispered for an antl Lynching bill "bolsheviks." The Pullman porters ought to good to have the same Negro to put them into the same class. It is a mark of honour from that source. Let no one feel excited because Perry Howard now allows the Pullman Company to hire him to fight the porters. He even allowed his political bosses, on whom his political job depended, to influence him to fight against an antl Lynching law. In effect he stood with the Lynchers, and in fact, he has hoped indirectly to Lynch every Negro since the antl Lynching bill was not allowed to come a law. The Pullman porters ought to feel happy and hoped to enjoy the opposition of this invaderate reiling.
He accuses those who are organizing the porters of wanting to get dues and "fees," and the brazen man has the nerve to acknowledge in the same article that he himself is accepting fees and pay from the Pullman Company for the special purpose of lighting the organization of porters. How in the devil is it right and honorable to be hired to defend the Pullman Company and yet wrong and dishonorable to be hired to defend the Pullman porters? The only difference is that the porters cannot pay as big a fee as the Company, the porters could, the Company they might secure the eminent services of Perry Howard, motorous co-workers, lynchers of Negroes. He certainly cannot accuse the writer of this article of taking "fees" from anybody, either the porters or the Company. Perry says, importantly, "the Pullman porter has no just guidance that in due course will not receive the proper consideration." Now, if an ass could make a speech he never could do better than

WITHOUT question the Negro is coming into his own. Here we have a Southern university printing a careful collection of hundreds of Negro songs, collected chiefly in northern Georgia and northern Mississippi, and promising us more books to come. We are assured that "for every song in this volume there are twenty that have never reached the ears of one who realizes their unexplored value for the sociologist and the social psychologist as materials for the objective study of race problems." This is the somewhat ponderous 'style of the sociologist and psychologist, and one gasps a little at such comments as, "The Negro employs synopsis in its freer usage," "Asyndeton is most marked, etc." But if the volume is a little heavy it is written in a friendly spirit, evinced, among other ways, in its capitalizing of the word Negro.

that in speaking up for his master who stood right behind him with whip in hand. Every worker of every kind knows that such a statement is a generality of hot air; "due course" is no time, and "proper consideration" is nothing unless the worker himself has a voice and a vote in the consideration. Further on in this obedient braying Perry Howard, as if he were the whole Pullman Company announces with fatality: "There can be no increase in wages at this time."
Still further on he says that the porters cannot get an increase until after other railway employees "who already enjoy higher wages and short or hours than the porter get increases. And then he indicates that the other employees increase because the Company does not want to earn any fewer millions of dollars than it now earns. What a great lawyer Perry must be to talk in so many different directions in a few paragraphs. We conclude the Pullman Company.
And Perry, who seems suddenly to know all about the Pullman Company, reports that the Company earned only $0,000,000 last year—on property, "water," and all, we suppose. But we have heard from a source much more reliable than Perry Howard that the actual earning of the Pullman Company last year was $4,000,000. That is nearly ten times what Perry says it was; which is good for Perry, since he is, as a usual thing, not nearly 10 per cent correct. And the most crooked thing of all in this whole speech and article is Perry Howard's opinion that the company organizes for more wages and fewer cuesings on the trains, they are trying to "deny the existence of God" deplete the pew and tender unless the pulpit, making a face of atheists, as can be

The social songs are the great contribution of this book. There are lovely lines given among the aspirants, new to Mark of us, as "Meas. Jesus gib me little broom fer to sweep my heart clean." "I was lost in de wilderness; Jesus hand me die candle down," and the Grade Song among the work group.

That is a plain effort to scare
the Negro preachers into line
by making them believe that if
the porters get more money
the preachers will get less.
But even the most ignorant
preacher is too intelligent for
that. More money for Negro
porters means more money for
colored preachers, and all
colored preachers. When a
dollar rolls out of the Pullman
treasure into the pockets of a
colored porter, it is ten times
neuer a Negro pulpit than it
ever before.
For all I know, Perry Howard may be an exception to the rule, but it is our experience that when one appends to religion in such a discussion, he is the grandest of grand rascals. Whenever you ask a fellow to pay you back your five dollars, and he yells for God and the preachers, why. God does not know that soundrel, and the preachers ought to ignore him. But it may be different with Perry. It may be that he thinks God is on the side of his salary and fees from the Pulman Company. We wish to tell him to his hypothetical son that the Pulman porters will better if those porters are organized; that Negro preachers get a thousand times more help today from Pulman porters than they get from Perry Howard; and that colored preachers will share in whatever advantages the porters may gain against the Company and Perry Howard.
Finally, even if Perry Howard were right in saying that the porters are well enough treated, that they deserve no more pay, and that they should enjoy the beels of the public and lick the hands of the Company—even if that were true and the right thing to do in the middle right thing can demand and do even that thing better if they are organized and cooperative than if they are unorganized and non-cooperative.

But the social songs have very much that will be a surprise certainly to the great majority of Mr. Odum's readers. Phyllodes have made us familiar with verses of Negro life, but here we have songs of highwaymen and habos. Stagelo may have originated with the whites, but he is essentially Negro as he is presented to us in this book. Stagelo, Stagelo, what's dar Nothin' but my Sunday clothes. I'm goin' to take a trip. Oh, dat man, bad man. Stagelo done come.
And there are the train songs, the K. C., the L, and N. Fireman, put on a little mo' coal; Run dat train in some lonely hole.
I confess that my amazement at the cleverness of the colored shows, particularly those in days of Williams and Walker, is not an anomaly it was. Men who were close to the Southern Negro must have found there difficulty in the very richness of their material, in knowing what to handle, hind, wild, alive. No wonder that Florence Mills, with all her charm, failed last year to satisfy New York in her 'Revenue,' written by white people New York and seen her in something far better and realized it.
Edwin Muir tells us that the Scotch poet, unlike the English, is a peasant uneducated in the snacks directs, not effectively. These Negro songs are like that and link these black peasants with the Scotch ballads and Burns.
Disease of the Kidneys
D ISEASE or inflammation of the kidneys is common The reason for this is that most of the poisons in the human body are eliminated through the kidneys This is nature's way of getting rid of poisonous irritants from the body. The poisons reach the kidneys through the circulation of the blood.
There are different kinds of poisons or irritants that enter into the circulation of the blood and thus irritate the kidneys. These are divided into two classes — chemico-toxic and organized infection substances.
The chemico-toxic group are the poisons elaborated within the body from abnormal metabolism, when certain organs are not functioning properly. Thus if the stomach, the intestines, the pancreas, the liver are not functioning in a normal way, by-products are formed during the process of digestion, assimilation, and elimination, which get into the blood and finally enter the kidneys, where nature tries to pass them out of the body. In the process of this elimination the kidney structure is injured. In this group are also found poisons which may be taken into the system through the mouth; these include carbolic acid, mercury, lead and arsenic; some of which are poisonous only when taken in large amounts.
feet, legs and body warm and dry.
There is another form of kidney disease which occurs when the heart loses its power. This occurs during the course of chronic heart disease; the heart fails to pump the blood with regular rhythm and the kidneys thus become engorged with blood, and the kidney cells become inflamed, and chronic Bright's disease results.
WESTERN EDITOR
FLAYS DEMOCRACY
WASHINGTON. D. C.—In a recent issue of Ryan's Weekly, the editor, Mr. John H. Hlan, a distinguished citizen of Tacoma, Wash. pays his respects to the Democratic party as follows: "The Democratic
The most frequent causes of kidney disease, however, are the poisons of the organized infectious group. These are the toxins or products, elaborated by germs and bacteria, in the course of a disease or sickness. Thus many a person has developed kidney disease in childhood when scarlet fever, measles or diphtheria raged within his or her body. The same result occurs from typhoid fever and smallpox; from septic tonsillitis, severe eczema and carbuncle. These infectious toxins get into the circulating blood and finally offend the kidneys. Thus the kidneys become a target, as it were, with the constant repetitions of injury to their delicate cells. In this way inflammation of the kidneys results.
There is a form of kidney disease which develops in some women during the latter months of pregnancy. The belief of medical science is that in some women normal metabolism breaks down during the stress and strain of pregnancy and thus poisonous products are formed which enter the blood and circulate the kidney and is the reason why physicians treat upon an examination of the urine at least once every month after the sixth month of pregnancy. In this way a beginning kidney disease is discovered, and appropriate treatment given early.
There is a type of kidney disease that occurs quite frequently in persons exposed to severe cold, wetness or dampness. Getting the legs and feet wet or the clothing damp, such as occurs on being caught in a shower of rain or when withering in snow, interferes with the function of the skin and the blood it is damaged by this sudden temperature cold and wetness, as it circulates in the small blood vessels of the skin.

(Written by a love-sick poet in his youth.)
EACH thing that mars the beauty of your soul
Is as a thorn upon a lovely rose;
And as love draws you nearer to my soul.
Deeper into my heart each cruelly goes.
And fills my joy with pain.
O yes, my soul has felt a deeper pang
Than torn flesh or bruised bones reveals;
Although the world around with music rang.
What piercing aches my bleeding heart oft feels.
And tears off shed in vain.
Will you remove the thorns or must I suffer.
Until my heart, grown used to pain, forgets?
O Love would never bid you let me suffer.
Or dim my happiness with sad regrets:
Love would remove the pangs.
Please, Rose, the thorns are not a part of you:
You are not conscious of them in your soul;
Your sweetness would expel them if you knew;
But still I feel these aches within my soul—
But Love shall heal the pangs.
Some day my soul shall clasp a thornless rose;
And sadness nevermore shall glom my heart;
There this sweet blossom that manhood chose.
Shall bloom forever as my purer part;
