Is This the Negro?
HOLLISTER NOBLE
(white), noted journalist, recently depicted Negro life as it appeared to him in the rhythm and meter of song and chord, spiritual and secular, the exudation, as it were, of overflowing Negro sentiments, of both joy and sorrow. Says Noble: "The Negro celebrates all things in song. Their music has a color, a flavor, a richness of its own which' has been wrong from the sweat of construction crews and chain gangs. Some of them are the product of painful improvement, hard labor, and crushing conditions of existence. Others shout simple joys and homely blessings."
That, as Hollister Noble says, Negro music has put a spell upon America is a potent truth. True Negro music is eagerly absorbed by American people the country over, regardless of station in life or degree of culture. Why, why, however, is it that Negro songs, with their background of sorrow, are such a delicate diversion? Is it because of woe; or the rhythm and natural harmony? Is it the song or the race that America praises? Is this musically depicted race the true race, as America would have it remain?
We think not so. For our proof we turn to Hayes, Harrison, White, Houlais, Briton and their musical contemporaries, who render and interpret Beethoven and Bach as faithfully as do the artists of the German, the Italian or the American schools of music, Marlan Anderson songs as sweetly and as soulfully Stainer's "Crucifixion" as does Anna Case or Frieda Hempel. The man and the woman, not the race, are at bar today where honors wield their pens of logic.
The chain gangs and the levees as builders of musical soul throbs are gone forever. The soul of the man speaks today in a new sphere and because of new strains of mental structure. Just as much as the world gives the Negro, just so much will his soul yield back to the call of justice. It is an error to try today to build a race out of the burdens of yeaterday. Witchcraft is gone; so is the "soft laugh of Southern nights and the chatter of pickin'ninnies and cotton pickers" so gloriously described by Mr. Noble.
To Him Who Waits
ASOUTHERN prospector,
whose eyes are centered
upon the money bag first
and the weakness of men
last, sees no ill in the past
decade's migration of one
million Negroes into the
Northland. In his opinion,
the scattering of Negroes
over all parts of the country
will prove to be the best
thing for them, for the country,
and, above all, for the
South, homeopathically speaking.
In another breath, the
prospector calls attention to
the rejuvenation of the Southland, her cotton, her steel,
her vast agricultural
resources, and the new pledge
of the new South that brains

Early Easter Morning Blaze Ignited by Firebug Under Stairs of Apartment at No. 6 Bradhurst Avenue
A mother and her baby and two children were burned to death in a suspicious fire Sunday morning that destroyed the interior of the five-story apartment house at 6 Bradhurst avenue, near 142nd street. Investigation of the blaze by the police and the Fire Marshal showed that it had been ignited beneath the stairs of the public hall on the first floor. The fire was discovered at 2 a.m. Another fire several hours later in a tenement house at 314 West 127th street, where the members of an entire family, and a policeman were hurt in efforts to escape to the street, had a similar origin. The similarity of these two fires to a series of recent blazes in crowded tenements in the district on Saturday and Sunday morning caused a renewed search for suspected incendiaries.
The dead, all of whom were burned in the top floor apartment, were Mrs. Julia Brown, 20 years old, and her infant, Ruth, a year old; Edwin Moore, 13 years old, and Bertha Robinson, 14 years old. It was reported that Allen Brown, the dead woman's husband, was missing, but no other bodies were found in the ruins after the fire had been extinguished. William Moore and his wife, who occupied part of the apartment with the Brown's, were away at the time of the fire. They identified the bodies at the West 135th street station.
It was found that a heavy bed and a trunk had blocked the path of the victims to a fire escape. The Robinson girl, who was a guest of the Brown's, was the daughter of a neighboring family, who got our safely. Most of the other sixteen tenants in the building fled from their rooms through the burning halls and stairs to the roof, to safety in adjoining houses. Policemen and firemen rescued others from windows on the lower floors.
All of the tenants lost practically all their personal effects and household furnishings. When Deputy Clerk "Smoky Joe" Martin arrived with additional firemen on a second alarm the apartment house was ablaze from top to bottom.
A chauffeur and Policeman John Cook of the West 123d street station awakened tenants at 4:30 a.m. in the tenement at 314 West 127th street. Here, too, the flames quickly blocked escape by way of the stairs. After Cook, Policeman Patrick Murphy and firemen had helped most of the tenants to the roots of adjoining structures. Cook worked his way down to the second floor and found a woman with an infant in her arms homed in by fire. Cook took the child, wrapped it in his coat and got out of a rear window of the hall, telling the woman to follow. The policeman,
with the child in one arm, then dropped twenty feet to the rear yard. Before he could recover himself and aid the woman. Mrs. Pedro Rodriguez, jumped, breaking her foot and suffering other injuries. Her husband, who had tried to assist her, was thrown over the edge of a fire-escape when she leaped from his grasp. His arm was broken in the fall to the yard. The policeman and the others were attended at the Harlem Hospital.
Break Ground for Masonic Temple
Building to Be Erected at Cost of $440,000 on Seventh Avenue
Ground was broken Sunday afternoon at Seventh avenue and 144th street for the Prince Hall Masonic Temple. to be erected by the Prince Hall Lodge of Masons at an estimated cost of $440,000. The ground-breaking was preceded by a parade of members of the lodge from Eighth avenue and 155th street, the marchers being headed by the band of Monarch Lodge of Elks.
A large crowd watched the ceremony and listened to speeches and music. Before lifting the first spadeful of earth, the Rev. Charles D. Martin, pastor of the Fourth Moravian Church, produced a small bottle containing water he brought last year from the River Jordan. The clergyman poured this water on the blade of the spade.
Speakers included Joseph Sullivan, Grand Master of Prince Hall Lodge; Edward T. Sherwood, Jr., Deputy Grand Master; Arthur A. Schonburg, Grand Secretary, and Louis A. Joppe, Arthur W. Handy was master of ceremonies.
The building is to be a seventy fireproof structure. Excavating will get under way today and the cornerstone will be laid May 30.
Dancer Arrested in Owl Club Raid
Friend of Two Girls Who Thwarted Robbery Few Days Ago
More than 100 white patrons of the Owl Club, a cabaret located at 125 West 45th street, were forced to leave early Monday, when the club was invaded by police of the West 47th Street Station and the indanger, a dancing girl and another employee were arrested. The patrons made no disturbance.
The manager, Joseph Rooves, white, 25 years old, who said he lived at the club, was held on a charge of keeping a disorderly house. The dancer, Irene Pryme, 23 years old, of 19 East 128th street, was held on a charge of committing a statutory offence, and Thos. Gomez, a white attendant, 32 years old, of 148 West 45th street, on a charge of acting in concert. All were taken to the West 47th Street Station.
The Owl Club was the scene of a sensational attempted hold-up a week ago, when four bandits were subdued by Policeman John Green of the West 47th Street Station, who has since been promoted to third grade detective by Commissioner McLaughlin in recognition of his bravery.
At the time of the hold-up the alarm was given by two girl dancers at the club, friends of the girl arrested Monday, Ruth Dayton and Dorothy Bellis, who saw the bandits at work and escaped by a side door to summon the police.
Patrolman, Chasing Man, Falls.
While pursuing an unknown man who attempted to break into a store Monday, Patrolman Cooper of the 1836th street station fell, sustaining a sprained ankle.
EXTRA SHOTGUN USED IN KILLING
ATLANTIC CITY, April 5.—Police here were searching today for Jack Johnson, 24 years old, accused of having shot and killed Charles Grant, 40 years old, Easter Sunday afternoon in a rooming house at 231 North Illinois avenue. Three persons who saw the shooting, all of whom were held without bail as material witnesses, said, according to the police, that it resulted from a heated quarrel, following an extended drinking bout, in which the names of several women were mentioned. Grant was killed by charges from both barrels of a shotgun. The weapon was found in the house.
UNABLE TO SEE OFFICERS OF U.N.I.A. AT 135TH ST. HEADQ'RTERS
Reported That Bourne and Carter Have Resigned, While William Sherrill Refuses to Quit
Whether or not there is trouble brewing in the Universal Negro Improvement Association as a result of Garvey's temporary lieutenants being ousted and replaced could not be definitely ascertained from their headquarters this week.
Neither the old or new officials could be seen at the office. It was reported earlier in the week that Clifford S. Bourne, Grand Chancellor, and George E. Carter, Secretary-General, had tendered their resignation. William Sherrill, Acting President, has refused to quit, it is said.
In tendering his resignation, Clifford S. Bourne stated he was so doing because of the irregularities existing in the organization and the unfavorable position in which he had been placed in his effort to serve the association.
F. A. Toots of Philadelphia, who was elected at Detroit several weeks ago to succeed Sheerrill, made no effort to assume charge. Levi Lord, former Auditor-General, who was elected Grand Chancellor of Exchequer at Detroit, took charge of the association's finances.
Williams to Be Sentenced to Death Tomorrow
George B. Williams, who was found guilty of killing a white watchman. William Young, during a robbery in the loft building, 525 West 42nd Street on February 7, will be sentenced tomorrow to death in the electric chair.
A jury sitting in Judge Allen's Part of General Sessions returned a verdict of murder in the first degree against Williams Friday.
5th Ave. Fashion Parade Had Nothing on 7th Ave.
Fashionable Fifth avenue had its Easter Parade, but it had nothing on Harlem's fashionable Seventh avenue. From 10 A. M. Sunday till Old Sol sunk slowly in the west after a astringent day warming smartly but thinly dressed young men and women, an Easter parade not to be beaten for its variety of color and galaxy of mood was in progress.
Milady wore gray in the lighter shades and achieved a stunning effect in her cape-coat, close-fitting hat and kid shoes. Of course, the ensemble was completed with most carefully chosen accessories, such as the popular pouch-bag, slip-on gloves and gray scarf. The older and wiser were quite comfortable in their Winter wraps and signed, perhaps, at the thought that they, too, in the bygone years had braved the chilling winds to participate in the big parade.
Held on Suspicion of Stealing Auto
Had Just Run Over a Man Knocked Down by Another Car
On suspicion of having a stolen car in his possession, Al Frazier, 236 West 14th street, was held without bail by Magistrate Bernard Douras in the Washington Heights Court Monday.
Frazier was arrested by Patrolman Alexander Johnson of the 135th street station, after the automobile which Allen was driving ran over the body of a man who had been knocked down by a taxi cab. The officer said that the man could not produce a license or any identification to show that he owned the car.
Allen testified that he had been hired by a white man in Jacksonville, Fl., to drive the car East, following the owner, who was in another machine. When they arrived in Washington, D. C., the man told him to come on to New York and remain here until he arrived.
The patrolman said that the license plates were from Washington, and not Florida. The prisoner said that he had sent his employer a telegram but had not received a reply.
VIEWS. BODY OF GRAND- DAUGHTER AND DIES SOON AFTER

When the body of Miss Carrie Peters was carried back to her native home here last week, it caused the death of her aged grandfather, Henry M. Stallings, one of the pioneers and most prominent men in the county. As Mr. Stallings, who has been inactive because of his 78 years, reviewed the remnants of his beautiful granddaughter he wept. He then prayed to the Lord to take him away with his beloved grandchild while he was surrounded by all of his children. On going back to his room he got into his bed as if to sleep. He was dead a few minutes later.
Miss Peters was buried in the afternoon following the death of her grandfather, Tuesday morning. A simple ceremony was conducted at the family home.

Pulled Woman From Street Into Taxicab
On a charge of attempted rape, William Taylor, whose address the police did not learn, was held in $3,000 ball for a further hearing Monday in the Washington Heights Court. Evelyn Arnstead, 446 West 163d street, the complainant, was unable to appear in court as a result of the alleged assault. A complaint signed by the woman said that Taylor pulled her into a taxicab at 139th street and Seventh avenue about 1 a. m., and with violent force attempted to commit the act. Patrolman Robert Graham of the 135th street station, who was on post at the corner, was attracted to the taxicab by the woman's screams.
Tenor of Union Church Beaten
Thugs Set Upon Him After He Had Attended Choir
On his way from his friend's home, Harold Matthews, leading tenor of Union Baptist Church, 63d street, near Amsterdam avenue, was attacked and severely beaten by five white hoodlums on the corner of 63d street and Amsterdam avenue Saturday night.
The police officer who reported the assault to the prefect station stated that Matthews had been run down by a taxi cab on descending from a street car. This false record was given the officer, who is believed to have some knowledge of the culprits who attacked the man.
Matthews had attended a rehearsal at the church for their Easter program earlier in the night and had gone around the corner to see a friend. Coming back to the 63d street corner he was suddenly knocked down by the hoodlums.
Although the five bullies escaped and the patrolman made a false report, the Roy George H. Sims, pastor of the church, has made efforts to have a complaint drawn out against the officer and have the gang captured.

William Washington Held for Investigation Before Being Sentenced — He Threatened Father Also:
Because his mother, Mrs. Rose, Washington, insisted upon him either getting a job or going back to live with his father, from whom she is separated, William Washington, 16, 2412 Seventh avenue, became furious and attempted to stab her.
Arraigned in the Washington Heights Court Monday, the youth was found guilt- and held in custody pending investigation before sentence. How her son had beat her and threatened her life was told pathetically by Mrs. Washington. She said that she had supported it for a period of two months. His father even gave him money or steward of her, she testified. The boy worked for a period of three months and used most of his earnings to buy clothing.
Since the boy has been out of work, he has pawned all of his clothing, Mrs. Washington said. He wore a threadworn suit and raincoat when he appeared in court. His mother said that she could not support him and pay her own necessary expenses.
Mrs. Washington testified that when she told her son that he would either have to get out and get a job or go back to his father, he sprung at her like a tiger. When the boy attempted to cut her with the penknife, one of the lodgers in the apartment ran to her rescue, and Mrs. Washington ran out of the house. She then summoned a policeman.
When the youth took the witness stand in his own defense, he said that he was mad because his mother was going to put him out of the house.
Attracted by Crowd Viewing Dead Father
While on his way to work Sunday afternoon William F. Jenkins, a waiter, 206 West 121st street, dropped dead on the platform of the 125th street elevated station. His 12-year-old daughter, Vivian, who was on her way to Atlantic City, saw a crowd gathered and upon investigating the trouble found that the lifeless body of her father was the attraction. Jenkins is survived by a wife, Mrs. Georgia Jenkins, a son, Percy, and Vivian. The funeral will be held at Mother A. M. E. Zion Church this evening. Rev. J. W. Brown will conduct the service. Mr. Jenkins was a member of the Odd Fellows and Masonic Lodges.

PRESIDENT OF HAITI PRAISES AMERICAN OCCUPATION
In Interview With Times Correspondent, He Says Some Mistakes Have Been Made, but Benefits Far Outweigh Them
PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti. March 15. — The serious attention of the American people and press to international writers who are endeavoring to create false impressions in the United States and to prejudice public opinion against the Government of Haiti was requested by the Hon. Louis Borno, President of Haiti, in an interview granted to a New York Times writer at the Palais National today. President Borno is completing the last month of his term in office.
"One of the curses of Haifa has always been a small group of professional politicians," said President Borno. "They make their living by stirring up dissatisfaction, disorder and violence. In the past they have been responsible for much of the revolution, strife and bloodshed that has desolated our unhappy country. Truth, honor, decency mean nothing to them. No story is too improbable or too malicious for them to publish and circulate, providing they think they can obtain the smallest advantage by it. In Haifa this has done, and is doing, much harm, but responsible people here have come to pay no attention to these activities.
"The greatest harm that such persecution can do at present is done in the United States. There they are endeavoring to circulate propaganda which not only libels the Haitian Government and myself personally, but attempts to be smirch the good name of the American people and belittle the idealism and altruism which they have shown in their relations with my country."
Calls Us Tactful and Efficient.
President Borno said he was highly pleased with the tactful and efficient policy that is being pursued by the American treaty and military forces in Haiti.
"The United States in its dealings with Haiti has given to the world an example of altruism, efficiency and unselfish efforts in behalf of a smaller nation such as history has seldom witnessed," he said. "Before the intervention in Haiti there had been no lasting peace nor general obedience to the law for generations, and as a consequence, we had amarchey and persecution. Intervention has given us uninterrupted peace and universal obedience to the law, and our peo
ple have fourized as never before.
We have now, also, good hospitals
and dispensaries to heal the sick
and teachers to show us better
methods of agriculture and more
efficient ways to work.
"Your occupational forces here
made some mistakes in the begin-
ning, of course, but I know of no
occupation in the world's history
where mistakes and injustices have
been so few or which has been re-
presented by men of such high moral character. I believe that all
honest people in Haiti will join me
in this opinion."
When asked about his own policy in regard to American intervention and occupation, President Borno said that it had always been one of cordial co-operation, and would continue to be until his four-year term of office will be completed in a few weeks' time. He reviewed briefly the years of chaos and disorder that preceded the American occupation, and stated he was convinced that the time was not yet ripe for the American forces to withdraw and leave the country to its own resources.
Educational Aid Still Needed.
"Education is one of the chief, if not the chief, necessities of my people." President Borno said.
"The vast majority of the population of Haiti are illiterates today. More than four-fifths of the population of the republic lives in the rural districts, in little touch with the cities. So agricultural education in Haiti needs particular treatment and wide distribution. The problem is being met by the American experts with their characteristic resourcefulness.
"Haiti's future, of course, is in agriculture. We cannot hope to compete with the rest of the world in manufacturing, for we have neither the raw materials nor the machinery necessary to make enough for our own needs, although there is an abundance of labor in the country. Haiti does not even produce enough sugar to supply its own people at the present time, although the country possesses some of the finest sugar-growing land in the world. That the situation of the country has greatly improved with American help, however, is evidenced by export reports, which show a larger total for the last four months than any year previously.
Why There Are Malcontents.
"Yet, for the dishonest politician and the dishonest political writer things have not gone so well," the President stated. "There have been no revolutions and so coupe for several years and, in consequence, the men who made a living by political disorder have not prospered, despite the general prosperity and progress. So they are endeavoring, and have endeavored with all their power, to discredit the policy of the American nation in Haiti with the American people themselves, and to persuade those who ought to be most proud of the actions of your representatives here to regard them with shamie.
"To do this they have taken advantage of the universal American love of liberty and the sportmanlike attitude of mind which causes the American always to take the side of the under dog. By representing their country as oppressed and themselves as persecuted they have aroused a certain amount of sympathy and inspired a certain amount of belief. As a matter of fact, Haiti, far from being persecuted, enjoys more universal liberty today than ever before in its history, and these poisonous writers are as far as possible from being persecuted. In fact, under the old-time Haitian President, in the days before the American occupation, they could not have said one hundredth of the things they have said and lived to tell the tale.
"The eyes of all Latin-America and, no doubt, the world are on this American experiment in Haiti." President Borno concluded. "I consider it a duty for all good Americans to support and favor
the work of true progress and prosperity which is being done in Haiti."
Charge Against Tynes Dismissed
White Pupil Admits He Told Falsehoods on Witness Stand
Magistrate George Simpson. In Harlem Court, yesterday dismissed a summons against H. A. Tynes. 314 West 125th street, a colored teacher in P. S. 85. East 117th street, who was charged by a white pupil. Frank Chambrini. 12. 421 North 125th street, having suited him the classroom by striking him on the head with a 38-inch ruler.
Harold S. Budner, counsel for Tynes, on cross-examination, had the boy admit that he had told several falschools to his teacher; that he had the boy he had played "hokey" and had gone to Central Park with other boys, and that he had previously been placed on probation for 90 days for truancy. Associated with Mr. Budner was Counselor J. S. fill, attorney of Tynes. The courtroom was crowded with friends of Tynes and teachers from P. S. 85, several of whom testified as character witnesses for him. Mrs. Natalia K. Sacks, white 62, was 55th street, a teacher for the past 4 years, was one of these witnesses.
The boy testified that the alleged assault was inflicted with the ruler on February 23 and resulted in his being continued to St. Luke's Hospital with hemorrhages of the scalp. The Magistrate said the boy's testimony implicated an investigation showed he was given to playing "hookey," had been on probation for truancy, and on several occasions had told falsehoods; on the other hand, the teacher bore an excellent reputation and had taken the stand and had denied the assault. For these reasons, the Magistrate indicated, his decision must be in favor of the accused mother. The accused appeared in court last week in response to a summons procured by the boy's father, Benadino Chamvinti.
Boy. Age 11. Hit by Auto.
James White, 11 years old, 251 West 130th street, was struck by an automobile and slightly injured Monday while playing ball in the street. The auto was driven by Preston Hayes, 224 West 141st street.

WHITE PLAINS SLAYER
ARGUES FOR APPEAL
ALBANY, April 5.—The Court of Appeals today heard the arguments of three men convicted of murder and now in the death house at Sing Sing. They were George W. Bittle, white, found guilty in Erie County of killing Rufus E. Eller, jewelry clerk, in an attempted hold-up May 10. 1924; Dillard Moore and Frank A. Daley, white, convicted in Westchester County. Moore was charged with the killing of Bonnie Harris, a daughter of his common-law wife, Geneva Moore, at White Plains, July 1, 1925.

'Red' Turner Held onHold-UpCharge
'Red' Turner Held onHold-UpCharge
Charles Patterson Believes He Is the Man Who Held Him Up Last December
Edward "Red" Turner, an alleged highwayman, was held without bail for the Special Sessions by Magistrate Bernard Douras in the Washington Heights Court Monday on the complaint of Charles Patterson, elevator operator, 19 East 129th street.
Patterson declared that he was not positive that Turner was the man who had robbed him in concert with another man on last December 19, but that he resembled one of the men. At the time of the robbery Patterson says that he was working in a "speak easy" in West 129th street, owned by Max Wexler, white.
About 1 A. M., while Patterson was talking to a customer, a man entered the place and ordered them to "stick 'em up." Patterson said that the gunman then ordered the customer to go through his pockets, taking $90. Then, in turn, the bandit made the waiter go through the unknown man's pocket, finding nothing. The two men were then forced into a back room and the lone bandit escaped.
Several days later the man returned to the place and informed the owner that he acted in concert with "Red" Turner on the night that Patterson was robbed and that "Red" had failed to keep his promise about the split, the unknown man receiving only 10 cents out of the $90.
Wlexler said that, with the description given of Turner, he pointed him out to Patrolman Siemers of the 123d street police station, who made the arrest. Since the time of the hold-up, Patterson has left the employ of Wlexler. The

Grenthal Rent Bill Killed in Senate
ALBANY, April 4.—By a vote of eight to three the Senate Judiciary Committee killed the Grenthal bill, the passage of which the foes of Samuel Koenig, Republican leader of New York County, asserted would mean his political downfall. The measure, sponsored by Assemblyman Grenthal, Republican, of Manhattan, was passed in the Assembly some time ago. Under it courts would be permitted to withhold rents until landlords made repairs ordered by the Tenement House Department. The Republicans voting to kill the measure were: Gibbs, Fearon, Dick, Karle, Truman and Pitcher, Nicoll, Republican, of Manhattan, and Russell and Schackno, Democrats, voted to report. The defeat in the Senate of a similar measure, passed in the Assembly last year was alleged by certain Republicans in Manhattan to have been due to Mr. Koenig.

Sheppard-Towner Act and the Negro
(Concluded From Last Week.)
Virginia organized classes for her midwives three years ago. At each class the midwife is taught the necessity for cleanliness, the danger of giving drugs, the importance of calling a doctor at a time of appearance of a hospital symp of silver-irritate in the baby's eyes to prevent "blindness of the newborn," and the prompt reporting of the baby's birth.
The State Board of Health has adopted a regulation bag with simple equipment and a white uniform which each registered midwife is required to use. The difference in appearance between the old type of midwife and the new one is almost unbelievable, and in a number of States the physicians have reported as remarkable an improvement in their practice. It is believed and hoped that soon or later the patient will painstaking instruction of the midwife will show results in lowered maternal and infant mortality rates, particularly among colored families.

Then there children who, and surgery, less cripples, that "some the Johnson's poor feet operet yet." Another loved her daa have her opera
Another type of work carried on with Sheppard-Towner money which is or special interest to Negro women is illustrated by the demonstration in Cincinnati, O., which ended last June. This demonstration was confined entirely to the colored population of the city and was intended to show what could be done to lower infant and maternal death rates among the colored people.
Five colored nurses devoted all of their time to colored people, two-fifths of their work being directed toward education in maternal and infant hygiene. The demonstration began late in 1923. A list of all babies born that year formed the starting point for home visits. Within a very short time after the birth had been recorded the nurses were in touch with the home. Working in co-operation with private physicians, the nurses visited babies and preschool children, infants, and whenever possible, found prenatal cases and gave help to the expectant mother. Two health centers were established where many children came for physical examination, advice and observation.
The period of the demonstration —only a little over a year—was too short to show marked results in mortality figures, but it is significant that there were only six deaths among all the children under observation at the time. Cincinnati received the first prize for the best observance of Negro Health Week during 1824. Stories of individual cases show that the demonstration has acco-

plished results. There is, for instance, the girl found taking care of her sick father and of two little brothers shut in the house because of measles, while doing the washing for her illegitimate baby in the house. The girl was untidy, of course the children broke quarantine and slipped out to play with other children—the whole picture was one of despair and hopelessness. Six months later the same girl, barely 16, was in the infant welfare station, her baby shining and spotless, her own proud, proud to be commended on the beautiful care she gave her baby.
Then there were the three little children who, without treatment and surgery, would have been hopeless cripples. One mother thought that "some time" she would have Johnnie's poor little crippled, twisted feet operated on, but "not just yet." Another mother thought she loved her daughter too much to have her operated on; another had not really thought about her child's handicap. It was the Sheppard's mother, and she announced the parents' consent and co-operation in having the children treated. Now a little boy is no longer unsightly and hopelessly out of things and two little girls are walking who have never even stood before.
This short article can tell very little of Sheppard-Towner work going on in all parts of the country, in isolated mountain districts as well as in prosperous farming communities, among all races and all economic classes. It is work which has already shown its value and which, if it is continued by Congress after June, 1927, when the original appropriation ceases, will undoubtedly produce even greater results. It is encouraging to note that the tendency of the infant mortality rate is downward, both among widest and among colored populations. In 1923 the Negro infant mortality rate was 117, as compared with 122 in 1929; a substantial reduction. The Negro maternal mortality rate was 11 in 1923, instead of 13 in 1929—a small reduction, but evidence, at least, that we are working along the right lines.

Because you have no one to blame,
Because you've lost out in life's game,
Don't sit and cry!
Rise up and try! Try, try again.
Because you've failed a second time,
Because you find hills hard to climb,
Because you have no peace of mind,

Perhaps, a good friend, a good name;

Fashion Hints
Gray is "the" shade. Coats, hats, shoes are gray. The materials for those fashionable cape-coats are twills, kasha, satin and crepe, the last two being lined with kasha and used on the reverse.
However straight the lines may be in wraps, a suggestion of a flare is still to be seen. Close-fitting hats at present hold first place. Felt, grosgrain and combinations of felt and straw are favorite materials. No doubt, with the coming warm weather, larger and lighter ones will come into their own. Various reptilian hides in footwear are quite the thing. Kid in various shades of grays and tans runs them a close second. The shoes themselves seem skimpy, than ever skimmed, displayed by the shorter skirts, of sheerest texture and brilliantly colored.
Scarves of as many colors as the proverbal "Jacob's coat" and flowers of bright hues and much charm to the ensemble.

Best Amusement Page in New York City THEATRES, DANCES, ENTERTAINMENTS, Etc. Picture Operators to Get Chance at Lincoln Edited by Romeo L. Dougherty
Lincoln Management Always in Favor of Giving Operators Chance
But Operators Made No Overtures Since First Attempt About Two Years Ago—If Colored Workers Are Ready to Produce Competent Men They'll Be Welcome at the Lincoln
IN JOINING the motion picture operators of this section in asking for a chance to work at those theatres catering exclusively to Negroes, we never for a moment entertained any doubts where the Lincoln would be when the matter came to a showdown. And while we have never discussed the matter with our good friend Mr. Eckert at the Franklin Theatre, we firmly believe that when the time is ripe he will give our boys a chance.
We admit that we have always had our doubts about those theatres in the section starting from 143rd street and Lenox avenue, going over to 1435th street near Eighth avenue. It has only been in recent days that the people running these houses have shown a disposition to bring back that bond which existed between the Roosevelt and Douglas when Messrs. Silverman and Sovina were the powers behind the box offices.
Manager Pekelner has done a great deal in trying to wipe out the feelings of hostility which existed in certain places, and while we do not know the attitude of Mr. Pekelner in the present agitation of the motion picture operators, we believe that he, too, will lend an ear to the appeal of the boys, especially when the house built by the gentle and charming Mrs. Marla Downs stands ready to welcome those among its competent enough to carry on the work.
We have it from Mr. Raymond Snyder, of whom there has never been any fairer occupying the position he does at one of the leading homes in the community, that Lincoln has never shown a disposition to deny the colored operatives the chance which he feels is truly their. But it is as we stated in our last issue. For years we would not furnish men to man the theatre here, and it would certainly be asking too, much for these people to be experimenting with a proposition representing the investment of more than two hundred thousand dollars.
An operator going into the Lincoln must be conversant not only with the operation of the motion picture machine, but also the spot and other things necessary in a Goodville house. If our suckers after justice feel that they are prepared to man the job in the manner in which it should be, they will find any hostile atmosphere when they approach the manager of the Lincoln Theatre. Manager Snyder informs us—and he is borne out by Mrs. Reagan, efficient secretary of Mrs. Downs for many years—that representatives from the operators have not been in to see him since that day since the years ago when the man was first brought up, hence it is impossible for him to know that he had reached the stage where they were prepared to do the work.
Readers of this paper have no doubt not that from time to time we take great pleasure in speaking of Mrs. Downs. Ever since the lady came here she has shown a disposition to do those things which have had a great deal to do with enduring her to those fortunate enough to be brought into contact with her. She has also had the happy faculty of placing those in charge of her theatre who seem to understand and appreciate our position. Without the ringing of bells or the blowing of horns, she has very long ago contributed one thousand dollars to the colored ornament. Mrs. Downs did not do this for publicity, and left to her we would not know it. But she did it because of the largeness of heart which has prompted her to give thousands of dollars to our charities since she has been here, hence it will be readily seen why we feel so sure in predicting that the Lincoln Theatre would at least be the one house where our motion picture operas would get the chance when the time came.
DE MILLE TO MAKE
BIG COLORED FILM
HOLLYWOOD, Cal.—For the first time in the history of the motion picture industry, a leading producer is to make a film with all colored actors. Cecil B. DeMille announced yesterday that he would make the film despite prophecies of failure and adverse criticism from rival producers. The picture will portray the human, every day life of the American colored man, his joys, his sorrows and will not, directly or otherwise, touch on the racial problems.
Why is it true that a woman whose face is masked is the most popular woman at any gathering? Robert Z. Leonard, Leonard-Meyer director, believes that man's highly imaginative mind is the role person. In Leonard's picture. "Dance Madness," the hero, played by Conrad Niegel, falls madly in love with

a masked Russian dancer, and when his own wife, played by Clare Windsor, adopts a similar discourse he unwittingly falls in love with her.
"This condition is true because a man is forever seeking an ideal that he never finds. If a woman's face is covered, it immediately allows a man's imagination to run riot, unveiling a beauty and perfection of face that is impossible of attainment.
"The Wanderer" at the Roosevelt, Saturday, Sunday and Monday
One of the powerful dramatic effects achieved on the screen was filmed recently during the making of the scene showing return of the prodigal son to his father's house in the production inspired by the famous Biblical parable. The scene, which is a feature of "The Wanderer," famous stage spectacle screened by Paramount, brought tears to the eyes of the onlookers, it is said, through the sheer force of its simplicity. William Collier, Jr., who plays the title role—that of the prodigal son—crawled up the steps of his father's home ill and weak and starving following the destruction of the Biblical city by the wrath of God.
Sissle and Blake Returning
Noble Sissie and Ruble Blake, International Stars of Sycopia, American ambassadors abroad in melody and song, are at last homeward bound. The writers of "Shuffle Along" and "The Chocolate Dandles" sailed from France, March 31st, on the "S. S. Park" and are due to arrive in New York the middle of the following week. Noble and Ruble are routed to appear in the leading motion picture theatres on a tour until September. They open April 24th at the Garlick Theatre, Duluth, the northwest theatrical syndicate making an un
location is sufficient unless an unusual contract to secure Sissle and Blake's first American appearance following their return from Europe.

Tan Town Topics With Rector and Cooper Off to a Wonderful Start
Popular Prices Kept Lafayette Theatre Packed Opening Day With Outlook for Record Breaking Week
THE Lafayette Theatre presented a scene of animation on Monday afternoon and evening which we have not noticed in quite a long time, and this because of the revue playing the house this week headed by Ralph Cooper and Eddie Rector.
Perhaps the fact that these youngsters grew right up before our very eyes had a lot to do with it, and then again it is because Eddie, a mighty good dancer long before the craze hit New York and one who came right along with the times and continues to hold his own, hooked up with Cooper, who, the youngest among the batch coming into prominence with the Broadway shows, has shown an almost uncanny grasp on the extricacies of present day steps. Of course we have not forgotten that many good workers surround the boys, but ever since they got together as a team they have been making 'em sit up and take notice. Heading their revue called "The Town Topics" they are sitting right atop of the world, and their opening was as big as they could expect. The Laffey Theatre drew full houses and extra big standing room crowds all day Monday, with a promise of one of the biggest weeks for the show.
Among those lending great support to the dancing stars are: Leonidas Simmons, a most personable young lady, who is doing nicely; Gulfport and Brown, favorites of the past and present; Adelaude Hall, who returned from Europe some time ago; Arthur Gaines, a songster of no mean ability; Philip Giles and Mand Mills, who knocked them off their seats at every performance, and the Tan Town Topics Orchestra, led by "Fats" Waller.
New scenery added to the attractiveness of the revue, which was conceived by Ralph Cooper, who furnished the book and dances, and Eddie Rector, responsible for the music and lyrics with Waller, Walter Brown, known as the "whistling scaaf." is another valuable member of the cast.
chorus also contributes to an evening's entertainment seldom seen even at the Lafayette, which has made it a habit in presenting revue entertainment ever since they said "let's have a revue." The choruses include: Goldie Sisco, Alma Sutton, Milford Brown, Thelma McGlonghill, Tina Curly, Hazel Valentine, Evelyn Keyes, Babe McClendon and Sadie Maxie.
Next week the Lafayette will offer Oro Club's Creole Follies in what is said to be another outstanding revue. Manager Frank Schiffman, when queried on why the charming Florence Mills was allowed to get away from the Lafayette since she had to come to Harlem, said that he did everything in his power to bring back Miss Mills, but absolutely refused to raise the prices.
Which should be a feather in Mr. Schiffman's cap, considering that he came up smiling when he was at his wits' end to find enough room to "jam 'em in" on Monday afternoon and evening. Well, they tell me that competition is the life of trade, and it is right here for us.
Debutantes' Benefit at Bamboo on Thursday
The Deboutantes, one of the most widely known clubs among the younger social set, plans a monster benefit at the Bamboo Inn on Thursday night, April S.
This affair is being sung in behalf of the Katy Ferguson-Soljourner Truth Home and the Hampton-Tuskegee Fund. The young ladies of the club, who can always be found to the fore in worthy efforts of this kind, has planned to transform the place into "Beauty Inn" for the occasion. They should not experience any trouble in so doing, as they represent the very highest in female pulchritude.
Talent has been secured to furnish an unusual evening of pleasure, which includes one of the best revues.
Lincoln Offers Another Splendid Film This Week
If there are greater heights for D. W. Griffith to attain, if there are additional honors for this directorial genius to win, if there are further laurels for the old master to gather, then surely he has retched those heights, earned those honors and gained those laurels with "That Royle Girl!" his latest screen creation which will be the picture feature at the Lincoln Theatre the latter half of this week.
Griffith has taken Edwin Balmer's vivid, ultra-modern story of life in the Chicago jazz belt and underword, peopled it with such fine artists as Carol Dempster, W. C. Fields, James Kirkwood, Harrison Ford and others, and made of it a heart-gripping epic picture of thrilling drama and hilarious comedy, richly woven with polignand pathos, typically American humor and a compelling love-romance.
Exciting as is the action of the plot which sweeps irresistibly through gripping scenes of lawbreaking, intrigue and murder, reaching a climatic frenzy, a spectacular, awe-inspiring cyclone, accompanied by the spirited acting of the chief characters, and dominated at all times by the master hand of Griffith.
Renaissance Theatre Offers "Bluebeard's Seven Wives'
"Bluebeard's Seven Wives," with Banche Sweet, Lois Wilson and Ben Lyon, will be the attraction at the Renaissance Theatre Thursday and Friday, April 8 and 9. This is a story of an actor who married his way to fame. Replete with funny scenes, yet with great interest, this picture is one that will please all and should attract a good attendance at each performance.
Saturday, Sunday and Monday, April 10, 11, 12, that big production, "Infatuation," starring Corinne Griffiths, will be the feature picture at the Renaissance Theatre. "Infatuation," as the name might imply, is a love drama adapted from the play, "Caesar's Wife," by Irving Cummings.

Eastern Colored League Will Start Fourth Season With Promising Circuit
Eastern Colored League Will Start Fourth Season With Promising Circuit
Will Officially. Get Under Way on May 1—Lincoln Giants Bolster Club by Getting Johnson and Lewis From Hilldale
By LLOYD P. THOMPSON
NOT since the bee of organization by the established colored clubs along the Atlantic seaboard in 1923 has the Eastern League boasted such a likely looking circuit to start the season. With the entry of Newark into the league to round out the eight clubs, it establishes a more compact loop and affords the New York clubs an easy jump with traveling expenses reduced to a minimum and also the benefit of Sunday ball. For many years the leading independents have recognized Newark as one of the best Sunday spots in the East. This city truly holds the distinction of being able to turn out a creditable baseball audience twice in a single day, for Sunday morning games flourish there with as profitable results as afternoon games return elsewhere.
SIX
Season to Open May 1st.
As in the past seasons the adoption or rather drafting a schedule has been a weighty problem and while it is yet to be completed, the league will adhere to the seventy game schedule for the season it will always be difficult with eight clubs and six parks and also the fact that Baltimore and Lincoln Giants play primarily Sundays at home, however the League has lines out for a sample of parks that will likely do so and in these neutral parks the Commissioners contemplate filling in games between member teams to complete the allotted quota. While it is not probable, nor would it be practical for all of the parks to get under way the same day, it is already understood that the Saturday parks will open May 1st and the Sunday parks drop in line the following day as per past custom.
Pre-season games will be played by all league clubs and the majority of the teams will have their players report April 1st or soon after that date. But over in New York where the season opens in March and lasts until November, Jim Keenan's Lincoln Giants are already in harness.
Suspension for Beckwith.
The rumor that is daily gaining credulity to the effect that John Beckwith has cast his lot with the Homestead Grays in lieu of his contract with the Baltimore Black Sox has been given due consideration by not only the Baltimore owners and the Eastern League but it also clamps the lid on Beckwith's prospects for a job East or West till a five-year penalty of suspension that he will incur. Manager Seadden of the Baltimore team has ordered Beckwith to report with the rest of the players and can not officially declare him a contract jumper until he fails to report.
Now that Posey has excreted his cunning wiles as well as the influence of his off-reputed fat bank roll to insignite Beckwith from his berth in the Monumental City. it is well that the belligerent Beck have the foresight as well as the business intuitive to pin Cumberland down to a contract that spreads over a period of five years at a figure in excess of his cunning capacity with the Baltimore team. Otherwise the Chicago billiard parlor proprietor may awaken to the fact that Cum Posey's think tank has worked too fast for him and will seriously affect his annual stend from baseball.
Judging from past occurrences it is highly improbable that Beckwith will terminate a single season in Pittsburgh; back in 1924 Beck hopped from the American Giants to Pittsburgh and before the season was half over Cumberland and his slugging hitreling had come to the parting of the ways. With the Eastern League as a haven Beckwith found a ready market for his wares. But in the event or a recurrence of this chapter the Chicago slugger will contract eye strain looking for another independent club willing to meet his fed up salary demands.

has experienced. Dating back to 1910 when genial James started his baseball venture the Lincoln Giants, pride of Harlem and the Bronx, have always sported a nifty aggregation, but the long lone took a twist-last season and for reasons over which the Bronx owner had no control the Lincolnes were buffeted by-the-other-clubs-till-they were classed as the doormark of the league.
Keenan made frantic but futile efforts to strengthen his club and his roster of players for the past season reached the seemingly fabulous total of 49. But with no seasoned players available the results were very ungratifying and the Lincolns finished seventh, simply because the eighth club had dropped out in mid-season. Distasteful as the medicine was Keenan took the dregs of the past season with a smile and is looking for no repetition in the fast approaching campaign. Realizing that some experienced players were badly needed to balance his young team, the New York owner has kept his car to the ground and when he got wind that Bolden was going to cut some strings he readily made a deal that secured George Johnson and Joe Lewis for the Lincolns.
In Johnson the New York club gets one of the best outfielders in colored ranks; the rangy Texan has an uncanny eye for judging fly balls and also swings a wicked willow. For the past eight years Johnson has been a fixture in the Hilldale outfield. Joe Lewis the Baltimore boy is a capable receiver and has been carried by the Hilldale team for the past two years. Joe has a good throwing arm and his ample disposition will be a great help in handling some of the Lincoln's young pitchers.
Alpha Phi Beats Omega Five 20-12
Fashionable Crowd Turns Out at Renaissance Casina Monday Afternoon
One of the biggest upsets of the amateur basketball season came Monday afternoon when the local chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity beat the Omega Psi Phi's local quintet 20-12.
Drawing their usual crowd, the Renaissance Casino was another fashionable showplace with beautifully dressed debutantes and smartly groomed young men. To the sweet strains of music, a huge mass swayed gaily during the intermissions and after the game. The game was checked with thrills. The biggest during the game was the "Great Season" games unsuccessful in getting him. He was later put out of the game. Outplayed by far, the Omega Five was buried in the glory of Alpha's dust. Probably the cause of the results was due largely to the coaching of the Alpha squad by Gerald Norman.
Norman, who is also coach of the Flushing High School team, whipped the Alpha Five into shape. To us his own words about the victory: "That was fixed Saturday at our practice." The line-up: Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity—Richard Harvey (Capt.); Howard Dash, Eddie Lowry, Johnnie Johnson, Frankie Pollitt, Harry Jackson, Quintin Hands, A.D. Oblennis, Ted Jendeouson R.H. Oblennis, A.D. Hunt Wen Saunders.
Omega Psl Phi Team—James Sessoms (Capt.); Stretch Grant, Bouchet Day, Harold McNichols, Percy Richardson, Bert Horne, Teddie Daniels, Hastings Tompkins.

ATLANTA, Ga., March 27.—Morehouse accepted the offerings of Guy and Young for 14 safe blows and again deefatted Walden today, 12-2. The veteran Starr was touched for six safeties, only one of which counted for an extra base. J. Williams had a big day at the bat, getting four hits out of five chances, while Riley drove the ball over the right field fence for a home run in the first inning, scoring J. Williams and McPherson. Russ was less fortunate. Sykes robbed him of a home-run fly in the

Florence Mills in "Black Birds of 1926" at the Alhambra Theatre
Sell Out at Opening Show Leslie Denies Discrimination Two Dollar Seats in Orchestra
Low Leslie presented Florence Mills, most gifted of all colored entertainers, at the Alhambra Theatre, 125th street and Seventh avenue, on Monday for a limited engagement prior to her appearance on foreign shores. Miss Mills appeared in a new revue entitled "Black Birds of 1926" with music by George W. Meyer and lyrics by Grant Clark and Roy Turk.
New York, Boston, Chicago and many other cities acclaimed Florence Mills' last production as quite the best revue yet produced, Mr. Leslie feels certain that in the new show he has far surpassed "Dixie to broadway" in costumes, settings, music and dancing.
Miss Mills is being supported by an all-star cast of 75 people, including the famous Plantation Beauty Chorus and the celebrated Plantation Orchestra, featuring Johnnie Dunn, the sensational jazz cornetist, and Shrimp Jones, the leader.
"Black Birds of 1925" is a typical revue, with all the atmosphere of the "Follies," yet retaining all the quaint humor, melody and dancing so characteristic of the race.
The entire production has been conceived and staged by Mr. Leslie. There will be a performance every evening, with matinees on Thursdays and Saturdays and a special midnight performance on Thursday. There was a sell-out at the opening performance on Monday. Rumors going the rounds of discrimination were hotly denied by Lew Leslie; at the same time, while not so announced, orchestra seats can be had at $2 a throw.

Catskills and Renaissance in Return Game Here This Sunday Night
Up-Staters Believe They Can Take Measure of the Douglas Men, and Coming Primed for Contest
THE players of the Renaissance Five did not have to extend themselves to remain out front last Sunday night when they took the Peekskill Caseys into camp by a 36-32 score. The
white boys did not put up the hard contest expected, and as it usually takes two to make a fight Renaissance was satisfied to keep just a few points ahead of the visitors and win without an extra effort. Although few suspected it at the time, the Douglas men really decided to take things easy as they have got another hard game on their hands for the coming Sunday night. Fans will hall with joy the announcement that the Catskill five which gave the Renaissance such a hard battle here two weeks ago will be playing a return date the coming Sunday night and even standing room will be at a prepium.
And all because this up-state bunch came hert and placed the local team in a position where they had to uncover everything they knew about basketball to win. The white boys sprung the season's surprise when they turned loose Byrnes after "Fat" Jenkins and for the first time this season Jenkins found a man worthy of his steel. Clarence tried hard to shake his nemesis, but Byrnes was unshakable. He clung to Jenkins like Bengal's glue and it was not until the last six minutes of play that Renaissance managed to come from the rear with that famous rush which has meant so much to them in the past. It is going to be a big night at the Renaissance Casino when the Catskills again make their bow.
ST. MARK'S ALUMNI SWAMPS ACME
On March 23, 1928, St. Mark's alumni basketball team engaged in its annual game with the strong Acme Five, contenders for the championship of Harlem, and gained an overwhelming victory by a score of 51 for the alumni and 26 for Acme. The Acmes give as an excuse for their defeat the absence of their forward and center—Frank Stoele and Adam Powell. St. Mark's led at half-time by a score of 23 to 13. Alfred Eldridge, strong guard, was leading scorer of the night for the alumni, cenging five field goals and four fouls. R. Campbell was the high scorer for Acme, making five goals from the floor.
They Are Even Putting Over the Rough Stuff in Billiards
Which Proves Conclusively What We Have Said Anent the Lack of True Sportsmanship
By OLD IVORY
BILLIARDS is a clean sport from the amateur standpoint, but a little given to sharp practice and clever manipulation among American professionals. Just give this the once over, with no discredit to the good playing of the matches: In December, Eduard Horesman, the credited challenger for the "World's Championship" 18-2 balke-line billiards title, by virtue of finishing second in the last world's tournament, defeated young Jake Schaefer in their title 1,500-point match by the small margin of 1,500 points to 1,495 — five points — owing to a protest made over a shot by Schaefer. He consented to play a return match against him in thirty days. Horesman is a Belgian.
Now, Hagenlacher, of Holland, should have been his next opponent, according to his position of third in the World's Tournament, but "No," says the good American promoters of professional billards, "Play Schaefer." Much against his will he did play Schaefer again and lost his championship, all within 30 days.
From a financial standpoint Horesman was all the loser as in the short interim of his holding his title he was only entitled to one month's salary of the $5,000 a year which goes, with this title, to say nothing about his drawing power in the exhibition games.
With the ever popular 18-2 balkline title held again by an American, after two chances in 30 days, Hagenlacher, of Holland, was the next to have his chance at the title—not against the winner of the first championship game, but against Schaefer. To the surprise of all Hagenlacher did defeat young Jake in their title match without any shadow of a doubt. Well, Hagenlacher of Holland is the second foreigner to hold the world's 18-2 title and he is recognized as the world's 18-2 balkline champion. This is all he can get out of it plus salary of $3,600.
Now for a little manipulation: Hoppe won the world's 18-1 title from Maurice Vignaux of France in 1906 in Paris. After several matches, the last one in 1911, this style and title has lain dormant. What happens now with Hagen-lacher, world's 18-2 balk-line title and Horesman with a challenge to play Hoppe for the 18-1 balk-line championship? Real propaganda is dished up to make this long dormant game the popular one of today.
Horesman is eliminated and young Schafer chosen to play Hoppe for the title. Schafer won the match. The word's record of 15-1 ballads was broken four times during the 2,600-point match, three times by Hoppe and once by Schafer. The one thing in my mind is: did Schafer see his defeat coming when he, as 18-2 champion, dictated such drastic terms to Horesman? Did Hoppe see his fall from the throne as 18-1 king when he disregarded Horesman's challenge and chose to give Schafer the first chance to wear the 18-1 crown? Mr. Hagenlacher proposes to do with the championship what Horesman should have done—take it to Eprope and cash in on it. Yankee potions can't be beat!
St. Paul Varsity Wallops the Faculty Nine
LAWRENCEVILLE, Va., March 31. The affair started with a muddy field, heavy balls and feet. The fray from the outset was rather comical as all of the Facultionans were off their game. Tallies were registered in the second, third, fifth and sixth frames. In the second, Budson singled and scored on Scribner's wild throw to third. In the third chapter Scribner drew a walk and advanced to third on Turner's sacrifice, scoring the only marker for the faculty nine. Three of the Varsity's counters were made in the sixth half with the heavy end of the batting order up. During the sixth the bags were loaded with two out, when Blackwell sacrificed and scored Jones. The contest ended with the score 5-1 and the Facultionans on the tail end of the numbers.

World Writer Tells of the New Athletic Club
ANEW athletic club for Negro track and field stars, says Charles E. Parker in the New York World, with DeHart Hubbard as a noteworthy member, promises to become a leading factor in metropolitan and national A. A. U. competition during the approaching season. It has been named the Century Athletic Club, has offices established at No. 328 East 36th street, and has just been officially accepted into membership in the Metropolitan Association of the Amateur Athletic Union.
Its founder and President is Hunter Johnson, former trainer at the University of Pittsburgh and the man who developed R. Earl Johnson, national champion distance runner and Olympic scorer, and several other Negro athletes. Its aim is to foster athletics among the colored youth of this section and to provide an athletic home for Negro athletes who, owing to the lack of such a club, have been forced to compete unattached and to make athletic trips at their own expense.
In DeHart Hubbard the club has one of the greatest athletes in the world—holder of world's outdoor and indoor broad jump records, joint holder of sprint records, and present national and Olympic champion in the broad jump.
Other athletic notables already holding membership are Adrian Buckner, former Buffalo sprinter; Ken Webican, Metropolitan 220-yard champion; Clarence Sherman and Charley Dickey, and there is possibility that Cecil Cooke, Syracuse runner and national 440-yard champion, Roberts, the University of Iowa star, and several other men now in college will enroll in the club upon completing their courses.
The officers of the organization are: President, Hunter Johnson; vice-president, Richard I. Jackson, Jr.; secretary, Charles Dickey, Jr.; treasurer, George Williams; manager of publicity, DeHart Hubbard; committee on admissions, A. P. Portas and W. Jackson.

Morgan College Defeats Buccaneers, 24-13
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., April 4. The Morgan College Quintet rompad home a winner over the Buccaneers at Waltz Dream Hall Friday night, 24-13. The collegians showed a strong defense and powerful offense built around "Lanky" Jones. The Morgan quintet, however, is not a one-man team. With the Buccaneers covering Jones closely. Young and Payne outwitted the shore passers, breaking through for a quartet of double-deckers. Clark, on rapid assists, scored twice from the field, while "Lanky" was sentent with a trio of markers. The passing attack of the collegians was impressive, drawing the plaudits of the spectators.
For the locals, Knox at guard and Pendleton at center showed best, while neither scored from the field; Capt. Knox made a trio of points from the foul mark and was a whale on the defense. Pendleton, while in the game, held "Lanky" scoreless and intercepted many passes.
The "Bucs" and the Vandals play the deciding game of their three-game series Friday night.

On Monday night, March 29 the basketball fans and sport lovers of Long Branch, N. J., were treated to a real exciting and interesting game of basketball, when the Buffaloes of New York City hooked up with the Atlas A. C., pride of Long Branch, at the Palace. The game was fast throughout, with the lead swaying from one team to the other, the first half ending 21-37. The passing and accurate shooting of both teams at the beginning of the second half had the spectators on their feet. With but a few minutes to play, the New York quintet took the lead and was never overtaken. The final score, Buffaloes, 57; Atlas, 53.

Chick Suggs Headlining Card at the Same Club This Saturday Night, When He Goes in Against Jackie Gordon in the Stan Bout of the Evening
THERE is a strong possibility that Tiger Flowers, the present world's middleweight champion, may have his path crossed by a member of his own race. If Robert De Keyser, former metropolitan amateur title-holder in the same division, who represented the Salem-Crescents in the simon pures, continues improving as he did when he defeated Paul Herman of Hoboken in their four-rounder at the Commonwealth last Saturday night, that specific thing might happen. It was Bob's first pro start.
Fine Bouts at the 156th Field Artillery Last Wednesday Night
Eddie Boyer, of 369th Infantry, Hung It Heavy on Jimmie Christie, of the 14th, in the Six-Round Semi-Final CHICK MORLANX of the Fourteenth Infantry, won on a technical knockout from Mickey McVeigh, of the
16th Field Artillery. Newburgh, in the fourth round of a scheduled ten-round boat at the 106th Infantry Armory last Wednesday night, when the up-State middleweight's seconds refused to allow him to come up for the fifth session. Morlano had a comfortable lead on points when the boat ended. He outsugged McVeigh from the opening bell and opened an ugly gash over Mickey's right eye in the first session.
The damaged opic bothered McVeigh considerably and, although Mickey's seconds doctored it at the end of the round, Morlano had little trouble re-opening the wound. The South Brooklyn boy added to Mickey's woes in the second session, driving home a left that cut the up-Stater's nose badly. McVeigh bolted out of his corner at the opening bell and landed the first few punches, but Morlano quickly showed him down. In less than two minutes after the start it was apparent that Morlano would have little trouble winning.
Though Herman put up a rugged, tough fight from the first round to the last and showed his gameness by coming up from a knockdown count of nine in the first round to stay on his feet and give and take on fairly even terms with the colored marbleite. Do Keyser packed entirely too hard a wallop. Both boys wingered the battle that pleased the good crowd that pleased the "now-talent" bill. The knockdown in the first round occurred when both dashed at each other, threw rights in their respective directions with Herman going down. Paul made an impression, but Do Keyser's form and punching power was in greater evidence. At 138, Do Keyser was three pounds lighter than Herman.
Almost as impressive as De Koevers' win was the one-round knockout Mitton Jampole, of the Bronx, scored over Phil Pittibaldi, of Harlem, in their scheduled four. The end came in 6.51 of the initial canto, and from all appearances Phil didn't have a turkey's chance on Thanksgiving to prevent being put on a pitch weighed 153. Pittibaldi, 1873.
The Seamon Bros. went away from the Commonwealth in a pretty happy frame of mind last Saturday night. Their new addition, Harry Traub, 115½, former Ascension Parish House and Holy Name Boys' club amateur ace, copied the verdict from Pete Ferry, 117. Fordham, who used to hold forth occasionally in the armories.
A four round draw that gave the fans considerable action, and was a fair one for four, between Al Mignog, 142½, of John and Jack Somers, 14, of the West Side. In fair four, Tommy Brady, 119½, of Brooklyn, grabbed the decision from Ralph Zeigler, 116½, of Washington Heights.

McYeigh was willing to continue when his opponent did the bounty the latter who paid attention to his pleas. Morlano weighed 132 pounds, while McYeigh scaled 143.
Eddie Boyer of the 369th Regiment, lightweight, knocked out Jimmy Christie of the Fourteenth in the second round of the scheduled six-round semi-final. Christie did not have much of a show with the chore'd boy, although he managed to open his first round. In the opening session, Fourteenth representative danced about like a puppet and succeeded in getting in some punches that made Boyer look rather foolish, but Eddie settled down to his work in the second round and drove home a few body punches that slowed his rival down to a walk. In a position where he could trade punches with Boyer, Christie was able and this he did, until Boyer finally battered him to the canvas for the long count. Eddie Nolan, of the 106th Infantry, and Roy McMahon, of Fort Jay,
SUGGS AND GORDON HERE SATURDAY NIGHT Former Salem Boxer Makes Impressive Debut
Chick Suggs Ready for Battle With Gordon
Click Sage, the greatest little piece of fighting machinery the colored race has turned out since George Dixon's days, who meets Jackie Gordon, the East New York star, in the main event of twelve rounds at the Commonwealth Sporting Club, in Harlem, on Saturday night, will shortly post $2,500 fortelt to bind a match with Louis (Kid) Kaplan, the feather weight champion. Suggs has been the most persistent buttam title chaser we ever had, of face of face he running Harry Willis, close toond. The latter has been trying hard to get Jack Dompsey to put an O. K. on a match. Chick has not only attempted to land the present title holder, Charley (Phil) Rosenberg, but also several of those who held the crown before.
Now, Chick realizes that he must wait awhile, but is determined to force the issue with Kaplan, who must defend his crown again in June, when his six months will be up. The last time the Meriden man faced his crown was when he boxed Babe Hermann in the New Garden. Therefore, Dave Luniansky, who manages Suggs, will file his claim before the boxing board shortly.
Sharing the spotlight with the Suggs-Gordon match is the twelve-round featherweight battle between Johany Flucci, the popular Harlemite, and Jimmy Sakamoto. Sakamoto's pect turned out in his neighborhood this year and looks like a sure thing to be in the big money very shortly.

Two fast eight-round exhibition bouts featured the weekly boxing show at Mitchell Field last week.

NEWS TENNIS WRITER CALLS ON MOGULS FOR ERA OF PROGRESS THIS SEASON
By ARTHUR E. FRANCIS.
WHILE tennis in the metropolitan district enjoyed a larger measure of popularity during the 1925 season than ever before, very little of it was played by true Cue players, with the fact that former National Champion Edgar G. Brown played among us the better part of the season.
WHILE tennis in the metropolitan of popularity during the 1925 real progress was made by the Empire the fact that former National Champ us the better part of the season.

BROWN, who is beyond a doubt one of the greatest exponents of the modern game in our race in America, is an asset to the community in which he plays, speaking from a tennis point of view, and while he does not dominate the game among us as Bill Tilden does in the white race, he is nevertheless an example for us to follow, and his style and technique are superior, best he has been teaching to teach others. This is not said us a boost for Brown, and it is quite possible that some will not agree with me because of personal dislike of him, but this is my opinion, based on facts alone, and to bring out the point involved.
THERE is no single achievement of note that New York can point to as a real progressive step in 1925. We tried to show the necessity of interesting the youngsters in the game and starting them in the right and modern way, thereby building for the future. We called on clubs, associations and individuals to inaugurate some movement towards those ends, but nothing was done. Outside of New York City it is a real pleasure to see the youngsters that are playing the game, and to see an exhibition of haute tennis for the New York City, the greatest city in the U. S., should be behind other cities is a puzzle to me.
But one ray of sunshine pierced our cloud of tennis darkness, and that was young Reggle Weir of the Ideal Tennis Club, who, under the guidance of Brown, improved 160 per cent over his 1824 game, but should like to see about a dozen or more such youngsters playing in New York City. This can be realized if we will be little less selfish and give a thought to the future of the game.
THE New York Tennis Association, who by all measure of reasoning should lead in any and all movements for progress in the game, by reason of their position as the ruling body of the sport in New York, is a highly impotent body and one over to try to enumerate their strengths, the most valuable that will help them accomplish and anything worth while. This is not said as a bitter criticism, but in an endeavor to rupture the complacency of their position.
THERE is something wrong with the association, whether they know it or not, and some way must be learned and put in on the way to progress. It is our opinion that they should make a change in their policy of making it a necessity to be a delegate from an associated club to be eligible for election to an office in the association. This policy narrows the field of candidates, and when the best qualified delegates decline to run for office, the organization is often forced to elect someone to hold well meaning men, with the result that another year slips by with nothing done.
WE feel that outsiders with real ability as leaders and builders, with personality and standing, can and should be recruited to lead New York out of her tennis mire and start and keep us on the upward trend of progress.
THE management of E. & S. Tennis Ass'n plans to start work this week in preparation for the opening of the season on May 1. Plans are in the making to start the season in a blaze of glory, and we are told, will the leaders informed as to developments. The ideal, too, we are told, will be opening soon, and have been making preparations toward those ends.

Royal Giants Did Not Allow Bushwicks to Strut Their Stuff
Royal Giants Did Not Allow Bushwicks to Strut Their Stuff
Nat Strong's Outfit Got All the Breaks and Copped From Dexterites by a 4-3 Score Sunday
IT WAS a dull and dreary Easter Sunday at Dexter Park Sunday. The Bushwicks had planned to show the customers the 'smartest things in singles, the very last sword in doubles, tres chic triples and hifalutin' homers, but the Royal Giants, a young gale and what is known as Fate in four out of every five movie subtitles prevented the exhibition. The score was 4 to 3.
The Bushwicks outfit the colored team, 8 to 6, but loosely fielding and opportune slugging give the utter the edge. All of the Bushwick blows were singles and Messrs. Holland and Redding, who divided the pitching chores for the Giants, kept them far enough apart to prevent damaging results. Jack McVoy, the Bushwick first sacker, was the chief offender in the fielding line. He made one costly error of the physical kind and was guilty of two mental blunders. The game was of a bad one considering the team's brand of weather which prevailed. Both teams went through their paces at a snappy clip and the result was a contest that was as well played as a midseason affair.
Manager Freddie Hohman worked the same trio of hurlers he used in the opening game two weeks ago. It proved too cold for Jack Warhop, who started the game by giving the Royals' four hits and three runs in three innings. The veteran's underhand delivery was frostbitten, and he retired in the fourth to let youth have its fling. Herb Steen got by without trouble in next three rounds. Carl Dietzen was touched for one hit and the winning run in the eighth frame. Dennoseh, the Woodhaven outfits' new centre fielder, corraled the new fielder fancy hitting honors, getting four hits in as many times at bat. Neither Hailand or Redding bothered him the least bit, but his pokes carried no demoralizing effect. However, this target work served to confirm the impression he made in his debut on opening day; Dennehue will not let many semi-pro hurlers look him.
Singles by Arlington, Dennehye and Spalding, with an error on the second named 'shit' by Rector, gave the Bushwicks their third run. The score:

ley at third and the batting of Scott, they won a 9-7 victory. Scott has the honor of hitting the first home run of the season. He landed one over the right field fence, which gave his team a one run lead in the seventh inning. Finley prevented a score by making a star catch of a foul ball, retiring the side, and by his batting. Robbins not only pitched a good game, allowing only three hits in eight innings, but also drove in a score by hitting a two-bagger. From his work in the first two games of the season he will be the principal twirler for the Lincoln's. Despite the cold weather a good-sized crowd was present and enjoyed the batting spree of both teams. Next Sunday the fans will be treated to the first double header.

Coming of President of Howard to to B'klyn Church Recalls Old Days
Coming of President of Howard to to B'klyn Church Recalls Old Days
Stirring Times at Edifice Made Famous by Beecher Abbott and Hillis-One of the Few Churches Where Christianity Is Preached and Practiced
ANOTHER milestone in the history of old Plymouth Church — Henry Ward Beecher's church — was marked Easter Sunday when the Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis, pastor emeritus, preached what may be his last sermon there.
Dr. Hillis, third of a line of distinguished pastors who have filled the pulpit of the famous Congregational meeting house in Brooklyn for seventy-six years, has been ill for two years. His successor, the Rev. Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, president of Howard University in Washington, D. C., accepted a call to the pastorate a month ago, and has been preaching every Sunday, although he will not take over his duties officially until July 1.
LIGHT
Dr. Hillis returned last Saturday from an extended tour of South America, feeling sufficiently improved in health to preach his last sermon.
The history of Plymouth Church has been the history of three men. First the great Beecher, who came in January, 1850, an inspired young man who was soon to make his name resound throughout the land; then, thirty-three years later, Dr. Lyman Abbott, already well known when he stepped into Beecher's shoes; then Dr. Hills, who carried on from 1899 to 1824.
Church is Plain and Steepleless. The church itself is a plain red brick building with a shate roof and no steepe. It stands in Orange street, near Henry, and looks more like a barn than a church.
In traditions no church in New York or Brooklyn is richer. Its fame still attracts congregations from Long Island, New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
Abraham Lincoln worshiped there the day he made his speech in Cooper Union on "What the Fathers Thought About Slavery." Lincoln, towering 6 feet 5 inches, shared his hymn book with a five-foot usher, and together they sang "The Shining Shore."
On the church platform on a Sunday in February, 1860, Dr. Beecher sold at auction a nin-year-old mulatto slave girl, Sally Marla Diggs. The price was $800. Beecher told his congregation if it was not paid Sally Marla must be returned to her owner in Washington. More than $2,000 was raised and women threw their rings and jewelry into the contribution plate.
Beecher's Great War Sermon. Fourteen months later, when Fort Sumter had been fired on, Dr. Beecher preached his greatest war sermon. There are greater cells than war, he declared. Yielding rights, one after another, was worse than taking up arms in a righteous cause, he said. This sermon was quoted repeatedly during the war period. Dr. Abbott was in many ways the antithesis of Dr. Beecher. He was quiet and dignified, tall, slim and frail, with a high forehead. Beecher was broad, big chested and boisterous, intensely human and playful. Both alike were bold leaders of thought. Dr. Hillis, who was still another type, also became one of the most famous preachers in America, and his sermons have been widely quoted.
Dr. Durkee was born in Nova Scotia and was a boss carpenter in early life. He has held pulpits in Malne, Massachusetts and Washington, D. C., and is a man of strong convictions. Dr. Durkee is 59 years old.
Real Estate Course at Bedford Branch "Y"
On Tuesday, April 6th, at eight o'clock at the third session of the Real Estate course, Bedford branch Y. M. C. A., Brooklyn, Mr. M. C. O'Brien will speak on "The Building Manager." This course is being given by the Y. M. C. A., in co-operation with the Brooklyn Real Estate Board and under the supervision of a committee appointed by that Board. This committee includes Lewis H. Pounds, Chairman; James R. Fisher, Bruce R. Duncan, Frank H. Tyler, M. C. O'Brien.
Two hundred and twenty-five men from Manhattan, Brooklyn, Long Island and New Jersey have taken advantage of these lectures every Tuesday evening. Any man interested may attend any session by making application to the Educational Department of Y. M. C. A.
Gibbs Birthday Party
One of the most elaborate entertainments of the season was given by Miss Ada Gibbs in honor of her younger sister, Miss Elise Gibbs, in honor of her birthday on Saturday, March 27, at their residence, $0 Edgecombe avenue, New York City. The home was beautifully decorated, a five-tube radio set furnishing music for the occasion, and a fine buffet supper was served and a very enjoyable evening was spent.
The Misses Gibbs are socially prominent in this city. Among the many guests who attended were the Misses Mills, Winifred Galne, Irene James, Dorris Stephens, C. Brooks and Louise Rodgers: Meadames Ramos and W. Richard: Mossers. Ashton Blackman, Randolph Tyson, J. Stephens, R. Peters, J. Thomas, A. Thomas, V. Elridge, J. Lyton and A. Gibbs.
Grand Jury Indicts Brooklyn Policeman Charged With Assault
Patrolman Thomas McAuliff has been indicted by the County Grand Jury for an assault upon a colored woman, it was disclosed on Thursday.
McAuliff's indictment became known when an assault charge against him in the Gates Avenue Court was dismissed by Magistrate Golden on the grounds that the Grand Jury already had acted.
Mrs. Stella Benson of 1723 Dean street charges that on March 4 at Utica avenue, near Pacific street, she was accosted by McAuliff in civilian clothes who, she said, beat her.
Miss Cecilia Thouloho of 51a Utica avenue said she interfered and was insulted and punched by McAuliff. The policeman denied the charges.
On Tuesday a delegation of several hundred colored men and women went to Borough Hall, carrying banners protesting against alleged failure of the authorities to prosecute McAuliff.
McAuliff is 27. attached to the Flatbush precinct, and lives at 1235 56th street.

Suspicious Looking Bottle Holds Memories of the Past for Gillis
Suspicious Looking Bottle Holds Memories of the Past for Gillis
Haled to Court for Non Support, Judge Suggests He Is Xmas Tree Decorator
THESE modern times affect some people to a great degree, some of them being astounded by the fashions and doings of the younger generation and others mourning for the fashions and styles of the past.
William Gillis of 54 Prospect street, Jamaica, belongs to the later classification. His thought would never have come to life had it not been for the fact that his wife got a summons for non-support against him and enlisted the aid of a court officer.
When Jenny, his wife, and the officer came to the house they saw a whiskey bottle placed in a prominent position on the mantelpiece, but the contents could not be identified as a liquid from a distance, so the officer got curious and decided to have a closer inspection.
"Why, what in the name of prohibition is this?" exclaimed the officer.
"Oh; that's just a collection of a few things of the past," answered Gillis. "I kind of like to save them and look at them."
The "hooze" bottle was full of what evidently is intoxicating to Gillis. Inside, the light shone on wispes of long blonde tresses interwoven here and there with strands of auburn locks and other shades, including a shade of deep black curly hair, which was by far the most prominent in his collection.
Gillis will appear in the Jamaican Court this week to answer a charge of non-support. When the summons was asked for by Mrs. Gillis of Magistrate Gresser, the
Magistrate questioned her as to the nature of Gillis' occupation. Mrs. Gillis said that he did odd jobs and hadn't worked since last Christmas. "I guess you had better put him down as a Christmas tree decorator," said the Magistrate to the clerk.
Prominent Brooklynite Will Fight to the Bitter End
George Wibecan Will Go the Mat With Fred Moore in What Promises to Be a Hot Engagement.
The die is cast and New Yorkers will be treated to one of the bitterest fights when the bell clangs that will send Fred R. Moore of the New York Age and George Wibecan, for many years a political power in Brooklyn, to the center of the ring to engage in a contest that will not resemble anything witnessed around here in ages, since the man will even refuse to shake hands.
Counsellor Albert A. Levin of 215 Montague street, retained by Mr. Whecain to institute civil and criminal proceedings against Mr. Moore for alleged statements made at a public gathering and in the New York Age, of which Mr. Moore is the editor, refused to comment on the case, except to state that he was present preparing the necessary papers that will be the first move in behalf of his client.
Friends of Whecain, it has been learned, have gathered around the Brooklynite, urging him to stand firm and fight with every ounce of energy that he can bring to play in the case. At the same time, the editor of the New York Age gives one the impression that he will be found in his corner when the bell clams.
Brooklyn Y.W.C.A.
A program of unusual interest has been arranged for the Association Vesper Service this Sunday, April 11, at 4:30 o'clock.

Music for the occasion has been arranged by the Frances Chase Club, of which Mrs. C. H. Vann is president, and Miss Sara Russell will

Brooklyn Fraternal Notes
At the last stated communication of Widow's Son Lodge No. 11, F. & A. M., Prince Hall, Worshipful Master S. B. Mayo conferred the degree of Entered Apprentice upon Ralph Johnson and a large class of candidates. Mr. Johnson was for years a prominent official of a group of alleged Masons.

Neval. Thomas Opposes Statue to

‘The students of New York Unt

selves a piquant addition to the
regular college course in listening
to a Negro lecturer. Dantol H.
Eckert, general secretary of the
Univeraity ¥. M. C. A, in @ recent
letter to this lecturer, wrote that
“there have been many pleasant,

outside the usual currieulum. I con:
gratulate you upon your*achieve
ment.” :
‘The lecturer was engaged to de-
liver a lecture on “Science and
Race Prejudice" and surprised the
students by omitting all reference
to the Negro problem, handling his
subject in the objective manner of

Last War Aid to Negroes, Bishop Says
Last War Aid to Negroes, Bishop Says
PITTSBURGH, Pa., March 29.—"Negroes in both the South and the North have been benefited probably more than any other group of people by the World War," Bishop Matthew Clair of Covington, Ky., of the Methodist Episcopal Church, told the Washington Annual Negro Conference in session here last Friday.
"During the war," said Bishop Clair, "Negroes were invited to come North and take the place of laborers who were serving in the Army, and in the North they found better wages, schools and social conditions."
NO RETURN SOUTH.
"At the end of the war," he said, "the Negro did not want to go back South. His letters to friends in the South caused more Negroes to go North.
ed by the chorister of the Sunday School, Miss Minnie Brown.
P. R. R. A. Bolden was in charge of the overflow service at 11 o'clock.
M. L. A. Green, first vice-president, was in charge of the Epworth League services.
The church was beautifully decorated with Easter Eggs, cut flowers and potted plants by the Floral Circle Sales. Here was in charge of the
"The economic system, to which the South is accustomed, needs Negro labor for its support, and the disruption of this system is threatened by the migration that has taken place in the last few years. The large migration of Negroes has forced southern industry and southern communities to better the conditions under which the Negro works."
Thus, according to Bishop Clair, a delithe improvement of the Negro's condition has come directly out of the World War.
Reporting the migration and its effects on the South, Bishop Clair said that in a single district of 1,500 Negroes in Arizona, 800 went Negro within last year.
Within Bishop Clair's diocese is the Republic of Liberia, on the west coast of Africa, and each year he makes a trip there.
UBERIA NEEDS CITED.
"Liberia," said Bishop Clair, "is a Negro Republic fashioned after the Government of the United States. Its officials are Negroes and it stands today as the only modern governmental organization independently ruled by Negroes. "At present there is no tendency for Negroes there to come to the United States because emigration from the republic is frowned upon and there is little tendency for those in the United States to leave for Liberia.
"The thing needed in Liberia to make the republic firmer is more schools, a better educational system and the Gospel of Jesus Christ preached and lived by clergymen and members of churches."
Mother Zion Church
The first Easter Festival in the New Mother Zion Church was fittingly celebrated by an audience of 5,000 on last Sunday. Overflow services were held in the Lecture Room at the Junior Church services. In spite of this, hundreds were turned away. The church was beautifully decorated with flowers, and sweet warbling canary birds joined with the choir in singing the glorious songs of the Risen Christ. Rev. Dr. Brown preached upon the subject "The Resurrection."
Prof. Nelson Williams spoke to the Junior Church congregation at 10:30 A.M.
Easter programs were rendered by members of the Sunday-school choirs in each department at 3:30 P.M.
Mr. George W. Hudges addressed the Lyceum on "Our Future Leadership" at 4 P.M.
"The Lord of All," a cantata, was rendered by the Christian Endeavor Choir, Mime, Georgia Berry, directress, at 6:30 P. M.
At $ 8 M. Dr. Brown preached an annual sermon to the Conchienna's Beneficial League, using as his subject "The Joy of Easter." They left a donation of $11.
"The Heavenly Gates Ajar" will be given under the auspices of the Zion Loyalty Club, Mrs. Rosa L. Davis, president, Thursday.
The sick of the parish includes: Caroline Reed, 259 West 129th street; Sarah Jones, 254 West 139th street; Gortrude Harleston, 212 West 129th street; Gertrude Twellman, 2400 Seventh avenue Ap. 11; Mary Seventh avenue Ap. 13; Robert P.

On Monday evening, April 5, the annual corporation meeting was held. Three trustees, B. W. Payne, James A. Hopkins and J. W. Watson, were re-elected for three years, and George Heartwell was elected to fill the unexpired term of the late Charles A. Davis. Other important business was also transacted.
Sunday, April 4, was a most eventful day in St. Mark's M. E. Church. Easter was fittingly and elaborately observed by the various departments of the church during the entire day. The day was used by the parish service of the Junie Church which was held at 6 A.M. The "Message" was delivered by Rev. R. A. Bolden, assistant pastor. The music was appropriate and sweetly rendered by the Junior Choir. The 11 o'clock service was so lovely attended that an overflow service was held in the Community House. The pastor, Dr. John W. Robinson, presched. His text was found in St. John X and latter clause of the fifteenth verse. "And Mary thought Jesus was the Gardener." Special music was rendered by their under direction of Choirmaster A. A. Jackson. Special Easter music was arrang-
led by the choriester of the Sunday School, Miss Minnie Brown.
Rev. R. A. Bolden was in charge of the overflow service at 11 o'clock.
Mr. L. A. Green, first vice-president, was in charge of the Epworth League services.
Mary was beautifully decorated with Easter Bells, cut flowers and potted plants by the Floral Circle. Mrs. Hare was in charge of the decorations.
RUSH MEMORIAL
Easter Sunday was appropriately observed throughout the day. The main auditorium was beautifully decorated and a large, enthusiastic congregation listened attentively to the sermon on "The Resurrection of Jesus Christ" 1st Cor. 15:14. In this discourse Rev. G. M. Oliver proved that Christ is risen from the dead, and notwithstanding the thought of the Modernist to rule out Christ, or the supernatural. It has been proven that He being, with slims and rose for our justification. Dr. Oliver preached again at 3 p. m. His subject was "Victory Achieved Through Christ's Death." Isaiah 53:12.
Special Easter music was rendered by the Junior choir with Miss Elizabeth Wilkes, the solist. In the evening "The New Life," an Easter cantata, was presented by Jas, H. Rogers. Mr. Noble Ross, winner of the Shelley Scholarship Prof Spivokowsky's School, and Mr. M. Malone's group of organists in the country, assisted with the training of the choir for the cantata.

In Memoriam
MRS. SUSIE B. JAMES.
JAMES—In loving and everlasting memory of Susie B. James, whom God called to eternal rest March 29, 1924.
Dearly loved and sadly missed. Loving and kind in all her ways. Upright and just to the end of her days. Sincere and true in heart and mind.
A beautiful memory she left behind.
FAMILY.
ANDREWS--In memory of Eugene W. Andrews, who fell asleep April 4, 1921.
Though you are not among us, sonny dear.
Our hearts are full of sorrow though we have no fear.
Still hoping and praying some day to meet.
And unite in prayer at Jesus's feet.
Mother, father and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Rivers and Mrs. Smith.
CROWDER--In memory of my beloved wife, Mrs. Margaret E. Crowder who departed this life April 7, 1924.
Gone but not forgotten.
JUNIUS E. CROWDER, husband.
HALEY—In memory of my beloved husband, William Haley, who departed this life April 9, 1923.
Three years today you went away, I never can forget.
Your loving wife with aching heart still longing for you yet.
Marton Haley, loving wife, and relatives.
JONES—One year ago on April 8, 1925, little Edward Randolph Jones departed this life.
Gone but not forgotten.
Sleep on, little Edward, and take thy rest.
We love you, but God loved you best.
Nother and father.
LEE—Elma Lee—In loving memory of our dear Elma, who departed this late March 23rd, 1928.
How sweet to sleep where all is peace
Where sorrow cannot breast,
Where all life's idle throbbing
cease.
And pain is lulled to rest.
Many thanks for the beautiful
flowers.
Mother, MARTHA LEE,
Sister, ADA STERLING,
and cousins.
MANIGAULT—In loving memory
of my dear husband, Thomas M.
Manigault, who entered into
eternal rest April 3, 1925.
Gone not in memory.
Gone not in love.
Gone not in love,
God in wisdom only recalled.
The boon His love has given.
Days of sadness still come over
me.
Secret tears so often flow,
But memory keeps you ever near
me.
Though you died one year ago.
The blow was great, the shock
sore.
I did not think your death so
Sadly missed by his devoted wife, Mrs. Anna Manigault.
McKOY—In sad and loving memory of my beloved husband, George B. McKoy, who departed this life April 5, 1925.
George dear, twelve months have
trains on life's fast flying
trains.
Only a few more years in the valley now remain.
Some day we'll meet in the Home
Eternal with its glories untold.
And stop at the last station in
the city built of gold.
OUR BROTHER—in memory of
our dear brother, who departed
the life of March 19, 1993.
Gone but not forgotten.
Sleep on, brother, sleep and take
your rest.
You loved you, but Jesus loved
you best.
Your loving sister, Mrs. Lillian
Hopper, and brothers, Thomas
and Robert Riley.

Boy Scout News
Well, well, I has the storm cleared away? I suppose that is what some boys, especially the New Yorkers, will ask when they see Troop 776 going to their hike tomorrow. So get ready by finding yourself a noise-proof house. You know, all the boys will be loaded down with signal flags, cooling supplies and firearms. Now boys, don't think that war has been declared and go hide under your bed, thinking that you will have to carry water for the soldiers.
I read an article in the Norfolk Journal and Guide about some Scouts in Norfolk, and it appears to me that, they are beating Manhattan Scouts.
Listen Scouts, next week tells the tale about that parade and theatre party of the cowpunchers.
I heard that Scoutmaster Perry of the troop is sick; so some of you Scouts should go and see him. He lives at 117 West 133th street.
Listen now, fellows, don't blame me if you don't see news about your troop in this column because it is up to you to send it to me.
Clang, clang, clang went the pots and pans at Troop 786 last Tuesday night! All the boys had their equipment. I thought they were going on a hike, but they

‘Such a ‘witness 1s the life
and spirit of Robert T. Kerlin,
now a professor in the State
Normal School at West Ches-
ter, Pa, Ho was forced out of
the state school at Lexington,
Va, because he dared to write
the Governor of Arkansas that
‘the twelve Negro peons of the
Elaine riots ought not to be
fudietally murdered .by that
state. Of course, the Supreme
Court of the United States de-
clded two or three years later
that Kerlin’s assertion was
right—but, Fe suppose, that
makes no difference to the
Angry-Saxon clubs of Virginia.
Kerlin would not compromise
in Virginia; be will not com:
promise in Penvsylvania. He
has a wife, a real helpmate,
who stands by him not to com-
promise—although they bave
three young daughters to edu-
cate, Katherine, Eisa and Con-
stance. If {t becomes neces-
sary, they will accept with
these children honor and ad-
veralty rather than casy pos!-
tlon and dishonor,

Fred ¢. Knollenbers. Texas at:

Association for the Advancement
at Colored People to fight the
“white primary” case which will
challenge bofore the U.S. Suprome
Court the dinfranchisement of col-
ored voters in southern atates, haa
gent a tentative draft of the brief

Goob. chairman of the Legal Com-
mittee of the Washington branch.
lutely square deal to tho
American Negro, in every sence
‘and particular. He {s 8 son
of the exslaveholding caste in
Virginia. He was brought up
on the {doa that "We know the
Nogro”—but_he decided early
to leara something about col-
ored people by reading their
papers and poems, hearing
them talk and observing thelr
life. Consequently. today he
knows aud can appraise Negro
achtevement and [ffe with an
authority and science to which
only a few Negro leaders havo
attained.
‘We have always maintained
that if real southerners ever
get converted to the truth on
fhe “Negro problem” ono of
them would be worth a hun
dred of their northern con-
freres—for by long habit they
have more Ruts to fight for
what they espouse, right or
wrong. Tt ts good to be right,
but by God ft 1s useless to be
either right or wrong tf one
has not the guts to maintain
his position. But although tho
South Is more uncompromising
than the North, the latter is
yet more civilized—although It
is gradually slipping backward
on the race question. Kerlin
can still work in the North,
though under great dificulties
and dangers; while {a the South
he cannot Work at all. When-
ever again we fall to doubting
an to whether or not all white
people are “Christian” hypo
erites and conaclencoless liars
fon raco issues, we mean to
jump on the train and run down
to West Chester, Pa., and have
A regenerating ‘day with the

Infanticide
WE ARE not so much concerned with
the two babies found in an ash can in
132nd street a few days ago as we are
with the conditions which caused them
to be placed there. Their lives were
forfeited so soon after. they were bora
that they could not have suffered very
much, if at all. Their Creator will take
care of them.
BUT where is the mother of these
twins, and where is the father? Dots
Harlem shelter them? Wherever they
are their hearts are either burdened
with grief, or will be ere long. They
may never be apprehended and brought
to justice, but the penalty for the mur-
der of innocents must be paid. <
THE SAD PART about infanticide is
that only a few of those who commit
this sort of murder are revealed; nor
are their victims found in ash cans.
Crimes of this kind, when practiced by
the rich, those of moderate means, or
the intelligent poor, rarely reach the
stage of the one mentioned above. These
three classes secretly practise birth
contro! or aborticide and get away with
it, apparently at least; while the ignor=
ant poor consign their unwelcome off-
spring to ash cans or. the river. . Ignor-
ant of nature's laws, they do not know
how to thwart pregnancy. Poor, they
are unable to buy the knowledge.
SOCIETY practices birth control but
refuses to sanction it by flaw. Society
practices abortion, but does not admit
it as a part of ethical medical practice.
Would a general knowledge of birth
control methods reduce the number of
inianticides, or would it act as a stimu:
lant to unrestrained immorality and
prostitution? All society must pay while
these questions are being decided; and
what is of equal importance, tlre deci=
sion must have weight with all classes
of society—the rich and poor.
OUR FIRST MILLIONAIRE
ACCORDING to a story sent out by the
Associated Press irom New Bedford
Mass., the Negro race may now boast of
a fulleiledged millionaire in Watt Terry,
a large real estate owner of New York
City and Brockton, Mass. It was in the
last named place that Terry- began his
career twenty years ago, with fifteen
cents in his pocket and his nerve. His
story is then told in the following
words:
Terry's father was emancipated when
his son was about three years old. The
father retained the name cf his former
master, a plantat'on owner who kept
hundreds ef slaves. The younger Terry
and his brothers worked bare-footed on
their father's small Virginia farm, which
consisted of “a patch of corn and a patch
of cotton.” When their perents died,
the children went to live with relatives.
A distant relative in Brockton suggest-
ed that Watt come to live with him,
An uncle in Norfolk, Va, lent him
money for the trip.
Terty mace his first money in the
North by digging holes for fence posts.
Late:, he worked successfully as wood-
chopper. kostler and coachman, and
finally became janitor fer the Young
Men's Christian’ Association in Brock-
a ton. Meznwhile he studied in classes
at the Y. M. C. A. Later he sought to
fulfill a long ambition to be a Pullman
porter. He obtained a job,”but soon
gave it up because, as he explained,
he didn’t “want to take tips.”
His first real estate deal was the pur-
chase of a six-room cottage in Brockton.
Soon he began handling real estate
leases in the Negro community where
he lived. He quit’his job in a factory
and started buying and selling real es-
tate in earnest. A Brockton banker
helped him purchase his first apartment
house and with tne success of this ven-
ture be began acquiring building after
building.
WE DOFF OUR HATS to Watt Terry.
He is an inspiration. The Negro race

never to be forgutten fact—the
apirit of ‘78 was not created by
the foment of white patriots
alone. It was the shedding of
blood! by all oppressed Amer!-
cans: it was the agitation of
and determination of all Amer!-
cans to get the rights denied

ation of Independence. which
meant a complete overthrow

In tho lines. He had no

that wus enough.
Gen. Washington wrote to
the President of the Continen-
tal Congress: "It has been
represented to me that the
free Negroes who bave served
in this army are yory much
Uissatistiud at being discarded.
T huve presumed to depart

Forty years after the Revolu-
tionary War & member of Con-
grest from South Carolina
said, speaking of the colored
soldiers, “to thelr hands we are
owing the erection of the sreat-
est part of the fortifications

our country; some of which,
partictlarly | Fort Moultrie,
gave at the curly period of the
inexperience and untried valor
of our citizens {mmortality to

Northern’ states numerous
bodies of them were enrolled
and fought, side by side with
whites." the battles of the
Revolution. Thus, though a
Rreat many of them were labor
ers, thousands . of them wore
soldiers.
In_tho Virginia Legislature
Iu 1783, atthe close of the
War, appreciation was shown
of their services by the passing
ot “an act directing the emanet-

had served ag soldiers in the

a marked increase. It is therefore imperative to push
the fight against this dangerous malady. Dict is an im.

‘Tubercular people, that {s,
men.” Rossiter Johnson In
History of War of 1912 says
that many of Perry's ment were
colored, especially at battles of
Lake Erie and Lake Cham-
plain, decisive naval battles of
the war. Many famous war
pictures show thom.
Cong, Martindale of New
York in 1828 said: “Slaves, or
Negroes who had been, were
enlisted as soldiers in tho
Revolution and I myself saw
@ battalion of them attached
to the ‘Northern army in the
war of 1812-1815 on the march
from Plattsburgh to Sackett's
Harbor, an important land
‘dattie.” But all the world
knows that 500 colored fought
and helped in the Rattle of
New Orleans, for Gen. Jackson
officially appealed to them and
then again officially praised
thelr valor.
