The Quest for Real Civilization
DAVID WARK GRIFFITH, moving picture creator of the "Birth of a Nation," following that infamous picturization of racial hatred, next turned to the public with "Intolerance," a film showing that Selfishness, from B.C. to date, has been the motivating ill of all the generations of man.
Today represents the acme of triumphs of the God of Self. The Chicago gang war, the Carteret riots of New Jersey, the British strike, mob rule, and a thousand other exhibits demonstrate the flight of Love and the advance of Self.
Virginia, the State in which John Powell, American piano virtuoso and "race purifier," is trying to wash away the "sins" of color, worries about the visit to the South of Governor Al Smith, of New York, fearing that he might aspire to the Presidency of the United States, and noting that "there is a religious bar (Catholicism) against the Governor," which would make his candidacy the "sheerest political futility." A group of satisfied Americans spends sleepless nights fearing that the dark tenth part of the country's population might advance too far to be safely and judiciously "handled." A bloc of New Jersey labor trembles test black labor might get too firm a hold in New Jersey industry. The Communists' hands itch to handle the world's wealth; and Capital and Labor are at each others' throats daily and nightly. The Church has become so absorbed in the world's commercialism that it is fast becoming a tool of that institution, which is built upon wealth and influence.
Twelve million American Negroes are being "shunted" here and there, an almost negligible force, except when handy to help the gigantic "interests" attain their goal. And all this is the melting pot of civilization's content—while the quest for the real civilization, which every man recognizes, when he examines his own conscience, has become a mere dream.
Has the Self of Civilization become ballast? Who is responsible, the Church, by indifference; the (Continued on Page 2.)

DEFENDS WOMAN BELIEVED "FRAMED-UP" BY POLICE
Employer Tells Detailed Account of Way Stool-Pigeon Secured "Evidence" to Bring About Arrest of Mrs. Minnie Lynch
That police officers, with the assistance of "stool-pigeons," are willing to go to any length to make arrests on trumped-up charges, is disclosed in a letter to Walter F. White, of the N.A.A.C.P., from Mrs. James H. Kirkpatrick, 328 East Fifty-first street, for whom the alleged victim of the frame-up was formerly employed as a domestic. The case of the woman, Mrs. Minnie Lynch, of 486 St. Nicholas avenue, was scheduled to come up in Jefferson Market Court yesterday. She is charged with prostitution.
Mrs. Kirkpatrick's dramatic recital of the events leading up to the arrest follows:
"Mrs. Lynch is married and has two children, a son 15 and a daughter 10. Her husband is living and works for a piano manufacturer here in New York. They occupy two rooms and rent five to roomers.
"Some two months ago a man calling himself Thomas appeared at the house and asked for a room. He claimed to be chauffeur for some people from Atlantic City, who were in New York for a short time. At the time he called, Minnie Lynch's two sisters, Mamie Brown and Margaret Johnson, of 302 West 128th street were called on her phone and the man said the room was too small and dark and left.

Files Suit Naming Bank Employee as Co-respondent
Clement Agard, 180 West 134th street, through his attorney, Richard E. Carey, has started a suit in the Supreme Court for an absolute divorce from his wife, Isla Blanche Montrose Agard, naming Oswald Pilgrim as co-respondent. Mr. Agard has also started a $500 alienation suit against Mr. Pilgrim.
The couple were married about four years ago in New York City. They have no children.
Mr. Pilgrim is an employee of the Jamaica, L. I., branch of the Title Gurantee & Trust Co. Mr. Agard claims that he is a married man and has a wife and children, living in Jamaica, L. I.
Some time ago he engaged the services of the Boulnin's National Detective Agency, 110 East 125th street, to make an investigation resulting, it is claimed, in his wife and Pilgrim being found in a room at 116 West 117th street, under the name of Mr. and Mrs. Montrose. His attorney has in his possession several affidavits to prove his statement. Mr. Agard claims that his wife and Pilgrim lived as man and wife at the 117th street address from October, 1925, to April, 1926.

WILLIAM HARLESTON SHOT BY PATROLMAN IN HOME
Officer Says He Resisted Arrest and Pointed Gun at Him — Housekeeper Accuses Him of Attack
Resisting arrest and pointing a revolver at a police officer, William H. Harleston, 45, well-known church and fraternal man, 21 West 132nd street. was shot by Patrolman Charles Williams of the 135th street station and seriously wounded Monday morning, according to that officer's statement.
Mrs. Sadie Osgood, housekeeper for Harleston, was attacked by her employer around 10:30 in the morning. She ran out of the house and summoned the police officer. On entering the building, the police man said. Harleston levelled a revolver directly at the officer. Williams quickly pulled out his service pistol and opened fire. He shot his prisoner in the left arm and abdomen.
Mrs. Osgood took a taxicab shortly after the shooting and has not been seen since, according to other lodgers in the building.
Hartleston is a bondsman and was formerly in the employ of the Department of Public Markets. He is a trustee of Slemm M. E. Church and Past Exalted Ruler and Grand Traveling Deputy of the Elks.

Prison Keeper System's Victim
Prison Keeper System's Victim
Tells Amsterdam News Representative He Is Innocent of Drug Selling
Locked up in the Tombs Court, where he was formerly a keeper, Claude Nichols, who lived at 201 West 121st street, is wondering what will be his fate when he is placed on trial in Federal Court, probably today, on a charge of violating the United State narcotic laws. He has been held in jail because of his inability to furnish security for $10,000 bail. Nichols says he is innocent and lays the distressing situation he finds himself in to a combination of circumstances. These he told to a representative of The Amsterdam News, who interviewed him in the prison, a day last week. He says that it is customary to keep drugs on hand in the prison to be dispensed by a physician to addicts confined there, but that after the physician left, about 4 o'clock each day, the drugs were given over to one of the keepers to be dispensed, and for the past two years the job had been wished on him, despite his protest that his job as keeper had nothing to do with them. At times, he says, when a prisoner who was on his list as a drug fiend was discharged or admitted to bail, the surplus would be left temporarily in his care.
The two Federal agents who were locked up in the prison and who brought about his arrest were listed as drug fiends and the physician gave him drugs for them, he says. At the time he gave the drugs to them, he says, the agents proffered him a tip, which later was cited as evidence that he sold drugs in the prison.
Nichola, who has been a keeper for the past four years, was appointed by order of Mayor Hylan, after he had successfully passed the civil service examination and other requirements.
He says he knows absolutely nothing of the drug ring alleged to be operating in the prison. The case will be tried before Judge Golddard, with Assistant U. S. District Attorney Guttman representing the Government.
He lived with his wife, Louise, and his mother at the above mentioned address and bore a good reputation by officials of the prison.
FISTS FLY FOLLOWING SUNDAY MORNING SERVICES
Members of Baptist Temple Church in Free-for-All Fight Over Deacons' Right to Call Business Meeting
Disgruntled deacons, who in vain have attempted to have their pastor enjoined from filling the pulpit, resulted in a free-for-all light Sunday morning in front of the Baptist Temple Church, located in 132nd street, near Seventh avenue.
A decree in favor of the Rev. Charles D. Douglas, pastor of the church, was handed down by Judge Mahoney in the Supreme Court Friday, upholding his right to remain as pastor of the church.
Following the sermon Sunday morning, the chairman of the deacons' board got up and announced that a business meeting would be held this week. It was later reported by a church member. The pastor then pointed out the fact that the meeting could not be held without his consent.
At this juncture supporters of the church official and of the pastor hurled word-bombs at each other. When these bombs burst one blow was passed. Then the fun began. The entire body was then thrown in an uproar in battle-royal fashion.
According to waiters in the Tabb's Restaurant, who occupied grandstand seats, some of the women were seen with bloody noses and torn clothing. Men were fighting women and men alike, they said. A manager of the garage next to the church, the bleacher section, said that he judged that over 100 members were engaged in the fight.
The trouble, it was stated by one church official, was caused by a small group of men who have attempted to control and dominate the church and minister. They brought an injunction against the Rev. Douglas last week to restrain him from remaining at the church.
Another member of the church, who was brutally frank in telling what she knew about the situation, said that the small "fundamentalist" group of deacons have driven every progressive preacher away from the church. She declared that they opposed every progressive measure.

LOW-RENT HOUSES NOW IN SIGHT
ROCKEFELLER TO BUILD APARTMENTS IN HARLEM FOR NEGROES
Purchases Sixty Lots Between 149th and 150th Streets, Near Harlem River and Seventh Avenue
Purchase of sixty city lots in Harlem, one of the largest unoccupied plots in Manhattan, by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., for $500,000, is declared to forecast an improved housing development for those who need it most — the Negro.
It is Mr. Rockefeller's third venture in housing betterment at low rental in the city, and model apartments, with plenty of light, air and sanitary features, are reported planned by his architect, Andrew J. Thomas.
The site is one block from the Harlem River, between West 149th and 150th streets, Macomb's Dam place, Seventh and Eighth avenues, the car yards of the Interborough occupying the river front. Until six weeks ago the property was held by the Astor estate and was known to the locality as Ontario Field, an old athletic ground, vacant except for the westerly side, on which are a motion picture theatre, garages and some frame buildings. The whole area is 150,000 square feet, comprising a city block.
Some time ago a delegation of Negro leaders of northern Harlem sought to interest Mr. Rockefeller in housing improvement, which is neatly needed there, and this is taken to be Mr. Rockefeller's reply, although no announcement of plans accompanied that of the purchase. Mr. Thomas is understood to have prepared preliminary drawings, but is now in Cleveland.

Ragsdale was arrested at 1906 street and Jerome avenue, after the machine collided with a telegraph pole. He said he was simply "borrowing" the car for a ride.
Judge Barrett dismissed the indictment against Green, because it was shown that he had simply been invited to take a ride by Ragsdale and had no part in the theft.

Charge of Disorderly Conduct Against Victor Houtman Dismissed
Victor Houtman, 25. 117 St. Ann's avenue, near 133d street, was dismissed when arraigned before Magistrate Flood in Night Court Friday on a charge of disorderly conduct, preferred by Malachi Zucker, white, 570 East 137th street.
Zucker, the proprietor of a fruit stand at the 137th street address, appeared in court wearing several bandages and with his left eye closed and his nose bleeding. He charged Houtman had beaten him up.
The fruiterer testified Houtman's wife had gone to his stand Friday afternoon and taken several cherries therefrom without paying for them. He said he remonstrated with her and she went home, returning two hours later with her husband. The husband, he said, hit him several times.
Mrs. Rose Houtman testified Zucker had told her to sample the cherries and on finding them sour she did not buy any. She declared he then called her a vile name. Several white women who are alleged to have witnessed the incident told Mrs. Houtman not to stand for that treatment. She then went home and told her husband, who went to the street to learn what the trouble was all about. Houtman said several peddlers jumped on him and hit him when he began to talk to Zucker. Policeman Slekmann, of the Alexander avenue station, who arrested Houtman on Zucker's complaint, said when he arrived at the stand he saw several men stop beating Houtman and run away.

Officer Says Woman Attacked Tenants, Causing Serious Injury to One
"Please don't send me away;
I am all right," cried Mrs. Lotte Robinson, 35 West 132nd street,
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 12, 1926
when she was informed by Magistrate Joseph Corrigan in the Heights Court Monday that she was being sent to Bellevue Hospital for observation.
Last week she attacked several tenants living in the same apartment with here, causing serious injury to one woman, it was stated by Officer James Boyle, who made the arrest. Miss Beatrice Robinson, daughter of the alleged insane woman, said that she was afraid to trust her mother.
Isaac Robinson, a receiving and checking clerk, the husband, said that he believed that it was dan-
gerous for his wife to be allowed to go free. He said that although he had been separated from her for over ten years, he knew that she was subjected to fits at times. Robinson said that he gave his wife $7 a week for her support but could not be responsible for her actions.
When asked by the court if he would take her back and live with her, Robinson said that it would be impossible. The alleged demented woman will be held in the observation ward at Bellevue for ten days and then returned to the court for disposition.
Travel Conditions of Negro Studied
GREENSBORO, N. C., May 10. After considering the need of better traveling conditions for Negroes, the North Carolina Interracial Committee in annual session here appointed a committee to seek the improvements desired. Among the conditions complained of were the lack of separate retiring rooms in Negro cars, the use of wooden coaches, the occupancy of Negroes' coaches by white pass-
engers and railroad employees, and lack of prompt service at ticket windows sometimes resulting in the missing of trains. It was pointed out also that the buses now coming into general use offer no relief, since they do not carry colored passengers. The subject of health was discussed by a representative of the state board of health and a report by Professor A. H. Hook of Elon College emphasized the need of better housing for Negroes. Mrs. Kate Burr Johnson, state commissioner of public welfare, and L. A. Oxley, head of the bureau of Negro
THREB
welfare work, told of the State's extensive welfare program for Negroes, which employs eighteen trained colored workers. Dr.W.C. Jackson, of North Carolina College for Women, was elected chairman for the ensuing year.
Charged with having a razor in his possession, Valentine Newsome, 17. elevator operator, was held in $500 bail for Special Sessions Monday morning when he was brought into the Heights Court. He was arrested by Patrolman Harold Moore of the 135th street station.

thrilled a large audience Friday
evening at the Salem M. E.
‘Church, 129th street’ and Seventh
avenue,
‘The concert was given under the
auspices of the local members of
the Empire State Federation of
‘Women’s Clubs. Dr. Julia P. Cole-
man wes directly in charge of the
program.
Because of the long delay in be-
ginning the program, the audience
became restless, which later
showed its effects on the singer all
during the first part of the pro-
gram. It was 9:15 p, m_ before
Miss Anderson mounted the plat-
form for her first number.
Judging from the applause of
the audience, her best work was
done in the German numbers, ~
‘Her program follows:

As an introductory article on
how to become beautiful or how to
retain your beauty, I beleve that
attention should be first given to
Health Thought. The condition of
the mechanism of the wonderful
human machine of yours is the
most important factor to be con-
sidered.
Particularly at this time of the
year strict attention should be
given to your health. If your skin
is sallow; your complexion has
lost that youthful bloom; your
eyes are heavy or blackheads and
pimples mar that pretty face and
you feel sluggish and inacttve, take
warning, you're wrong inside. And
these are nature's methots of
warning you of your condition.
All winter long you have re-
mained mostly indoors with little
or no exercise except that you

Best Amusement Page in New York City THEATRES, DANCES, ENTERTAINMENTS, Etc. New Management at Douglas and Roosevelt Edited by Romeo L. Dougherty
New Management Takes Reins at the Douglas and Roosevelt Houses
New Management Takes Reins at the Douglas and Roosevelt Houses
Motion Picture Operators Will Be Forced to Join the Union, but Half a Loaf Is Better, Etc.
THE new management came into the Douglas and Roosevelt Theatres this week and all colored Harlem will center its eyes upon just what the outcome will be at these houses, where the colored motion picture operators are concerned.
Last week Mr. Pekelner took great pains to tell us that the new management would give our colored boys a chance to operate the machines in the Roosevelt and Douglas Theatres, but apparently Manager Pekelner also took good pains to keep from us the information that the union would step in and have a say about the matter, because they hold the whiphand over the M. and S. people, who control many theatres outside of this district.
Well, thereby hangs a tale, but better half a loaf than no loaf at all. Considering the Jim Crow stipulations in the rules as printed in this paper a few weeks back, it is hard to understand why the union seems to want to function in a district with people who are so hateful to them they are forced to make certain rules for the whites and different rules for the colored operators.
We understand that the union will be perfectly satisfied to allow the colored operators full charge of the houses within the next few weeks and then the white operators will be placed in houses where, union or no union. Negroes dare not even hope to enter as motion-picture operators.
On the face of it all, the whole matter is damnable, but far be it from us to even attempt to advise

our boys if they have decided on following along certain lines. They are the ones to judge and, if they have decided to enter the union and creep for a time, well and good. If not, we throw every ounce of what support we can give to them to fight a condition that is deplorable.
Negroes are reading their newspapers more and more and they are perfectly aware that they must stick together to get ahead. We await the decision of the motion-picture operators of this city to know whether we are to go into the highways and byways and cry aloud unto the Lord against continued oppression, or if we are to wait a while until such time as the union can be made to see its error by inserting rules which not only fall to jibe with the constitution of this country, but with the laws of this State, which stipulate that race, creed or color should not be a part of any condition wherein certain people are catering to the public.
The weapon of the boycott must be used among Negroes when their own are offended. The law which gives these boys the right to make an open appeal to the public for support can be invoked by sending speakers on the corners of Harlem to tell Negroes how they are being discriminated against, while the Greeks coming among us bearing gifts are fattening upon the sweat from our brows and the pound of flesh which they would ring from us without any return. The Lefayette Theatre, Lincoln Theatre, Franklin Theatre, Orient Theatre, Gem Theatre, Renaissance Theatre are all in line to do the right thing by our boys. WILL THE NEW MANAGEMENT OF THE ROOSEVELT AND DOUGLAS COME FORTH WITH A STATEMENT SHOWING THEY ARE WILLING TO DO THE SAME?
A William Hart Feature at the New Lincoln
When it is reflected that on one scene alone for William S. Hart's "Tumbleweeds," which comes to the Lincoln theatre next Thursday, more than $100,000 worth of cameras were used, fully nineteen being trained on the action, it can be judged that this is one of the world's greatest western pictures. It is Hart's own production for United Artists Corporation release, and is his greatest effort in the eleven years of his successful screen career.
The great scene referred to is the land rush which duplicates that which took place thirty-six years ago at the Cherokee Strip between Kansas and Oklahoma. Hundreds of wagons, people, horses and mules were utilized in this great dash—the most thrilling ever depicted for a picture anywhere.
The scene was enacted before a crowd of spectators and members of the press and all were thrilled as if by an actual happening in life.
King Baggot, director, with his assistant and thirty sub-assistants, staged the one of the event. It is notable that who was injured—not even a horse or dog.
Savoy Features to Appear in These Columns
Through the courtesy of the publicity department of the new Savoy, which has created such a favorable impression on thousands since the doors were thrown open, we expect to carry from time to time many features in connection with the place which we believe will appeal to our readers. That the Savoy is here to stay is evident not only from the wonderful support, which should occasion no surprise considering the kind of place it is, at the hands of our people, but from the evident desire of the management to please all hands.
ssance Theatre
"Ibanez Torrent," that famous Monta Bell production, starring Ricardo Cortez and Greta Gorbo, will be the attraction at the Renaissance Theatre Thursday and Friday. May 13 and 14. The story is by the author of the mighty "Four Horsemen" and deals intimately with that always interesting subject. Spanish love. It is one of the screen's finest pictures and will please all who see it.
"The Merry Widow," Eric Von
Stroheim's epic production, will be
the feature Saturday, Sunday and
Monday, May 15, 16 and 17, at the
Renaissance Theatre, with Mae
Murray and John Gilbert, supported
by a large and distinguished cast.

Concert and Dance for Benefit of School to Be Staged at Manhattan Casino Friday Night
Nineteen years ago the late David I. Martin started a series of concerts hoping thereby not only to show the result of the splendid work that he had been doing, but to try and raise funds to carry on that work which has attracted the attention of people all over the country.
When Mr. Martin died some time ago his mantle fell on the shoulders of his brave wife who has been carrying on the work with the assistance of sons who will yet make the impression in the world of music which will prove that David I. Martin did not labor in vain.
As a fact, the accomplished children he left behind already proves that, to say nothing of those scholars who have had the benefit of the Martin training at the school; hence it is easy to understand why it is such a pleasure to direct the attention of the public to the 19th annual recital and dance which will take place at Manhattan Casino on Friday night.
These events have been looked for by hundreds in the past, and the work being one of the most worthy in the city, it is to be hoped that thousands will from tonight also looked forward to the future of what can be accomplished with unselfish support.
"For the occasion Fletcher Henderson and his Original Roseland Orchestra and John C. Smith and his Modern Dance Orchestra have been secured to furnish the music for the dance at the conclusion of the concert. This is a big undertaking, and again proves the desire of the management of the school to go far in giving people a "run for their money."
The recital will begin at $:30 P.
M. sharp, and it is to be hoped that
lovers of the best in music be in
their seats at this time. All the
boxes have been sold and it is
natural that the management should
feel appreciative of this support by
trying to make it pleasant for all
hands.
Rector and Cooper Revue at the Alhambra
The revue headed by Eddie Rector and Ralph Cooper which went on the road some weeks ago will open at the Alhambra Theatre next week. This show is taking the place of the Mills show, which the place of the work and will be the big offering at this theatre for the next few weeks.
Bill (Bojangles) Robinson is one of the headliners who will appear during the run of the Rector-Cooper offering. Others to appear include the clubs Pig and Lillard. Adelaide Hnil and Margaret Simms.
We understand that the best of scenery will be placed in the show, which will be practically new. A number of other well-known performers will be added to enlarged chorus will vie with the others for first place honors.
Cotton Club Draws Big
The Cotton Club Revue got off to a big start at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday and standing room was at a premium. So far this revue brings to the Lafayette theatre for four hours of beauties seen even at this house where the best looking girls on the stage have been "carrying on" for months. Some years ago when Marlutch auditioned for a job at Coney Isle reformers went in the air and forced Miss Marie to take a steamboat for Sunny It', but today you can go to the Lafayette Theatre and see everything Marlutch and all the Hawaiian dancers with less clothes than was ever worn before.
Comedy, music, snap, ginger and everything is in the Cotton Club Revue and with those good looking men and women all reuses which have gone before them, the house should continue to do a big business.

With the Billiardists
More money is invested in billiards in New York by colored men than any city in the U. S., and yet they cannot see the advisability of organizing in a business way for the promotion and protection of their investment; to say nothing of advertising and promoting clean billiards for the pleasure of their patrons.
"Country Jess." who is known nationally by old billiard room managers, blew in one of Seventh avenue's best rooms last week with one of our young, ambitious business men who is owner of a fleet of taxis. The management discovered the little party just in time to save the young man from a cleaning out and incidentally saved a billiard patron who did not know the gun was loaded.
Just as every one was complimenting one of our best actor pocket billiard players on his improvement in billiard room ethics, it is said that he pulled an awful stunt in a Lenox avenue room last week on Derby and Buster Miller. Both are wondering what they shall do about it.
Edward Morton of Saulsbury, N.C., and an active member of the Colored Amateur Billiard Players' Assn., has gone home to visit his folks and will return about June 1. He is very sociable.
Compton Glover, Chicago billiardist, passed through New York en route to Paris. Incidentally he dropped in at the Lafayette Emporium and got a game on with "Shakey." While the games were even, 1—1, Compton got a little the best of it.
Ginger gave his pal Barney Young a good lacasting last week. Barney's alibi was that he was down home where there were no billiard tables.
"Tis said "It is a long road that has no turning." Pres. Scott of the Billiard Players' Assn. defeated Peekskill 3 straight 50 point 15-2 games last Saturday. President is happy now.

The affair will be one in which about everybody and his brother will be interested, for it is being fostered by the Renaissance Five any any time an organization can induce more than eight thousand to turn out to see their basketball team on a sultry, winter's night, it is perfectly safe and sane to predict that Manhattan Casino will be the place to hike to on the above mentioned date.
Of course, the average person reading these lines will naturally say the only drawback is that Henderson will not be on the job before the early morning hours. Such a state of affairs has held good at many of the affairs and not in the far distant past either, but this Decoration Day night affair is something different and one of the conditions under which Mr. Henderson has been engaged is that he be on the job from early evening until the early morning.

THE first step in the reconstruction of the local tennis structure, controlled and directed by the New York Tennis Assn., took place on Monday night, May 3 when at an election of officers of that body Dr. T. E. Hanson, one of Harlem's most popular dentists, of 101 West 101th street, was elected as president.
The election of Dr. Hanson was in response to the popular desire of the tennis fraternity, reflected in the fight this newspaper made during the past several weeks for the election of an executive with the ability to harness the cooperative power lodged in the associated clubs, but which has been dormant for the past years, one who could instill confidence and stability in the rank and file, and who, by his initiative and leadership, will show the way to command the respect that the New York Tennis Assn. deserves.
Dr. Hanson, who is a member of the Manhattan and Cosmopolitan Tennis Clubs, gave a sample of his ability in organizing and directing when he was appointed last year as chairman of the banquet committee of the association during the 1923 State Championships.
This banquet had never been a success, but the good doctor took charge, and for the first time made it a wonderful feature of the annual New York State week of tennis activities.
We feel sure that some of our sport loving men and women in Harlem will give the association financial aid in putting through this project, which will mean the building of better bodies and minds of some of our youth, and act as an inspiration to others who will no doubt follow.
Those desirous of aiding may now be with the Storries.
If the new President shows as much zeal in his office as he did as chairman of that committee, this administration is bound to be a success, and he will contribute to tennis a legacy that not only will not be forgotten, but will be a monument to the advent of real progress in New York tennis circles.
Other officers elected with Dr. Hanson are L. E. Spouner of the E. and S. Tennis Club, Vice-President; Albert E. Macdowell of the St. Thomas, Secretary, both re-elected. John W. Stephenson of the Wienna is Treasurer. Chas. Buchanan of the Cosmopolitan is Assistant Secretary.
The Executive Committee are as follows: Gerald Norman, Flushing Tennis Club; Arthur E. Francis, St. Thomas; Everard Edmund, E. and S.; Donald Crichton, Cosmopolitan; Robert N. Wood, Ideal; Lonny George, attorney, Grenville.
The second step of progress was evidenced in a resolution adopted by the body, making provision for a petition to the associated clubs, for the donation to the association of two paid up memberships from each club, to be used for junior players, these juniors to be recommended to the association through the delegates and assigned by the association to the various clubs.
If this is granted by the clubs, it will insure the start of about two dozen young boys and girls in the game this season. We cannot imagine any of the clubs refusing such a request and at the same time considering themselves loyal and progressive.
Plans are in the making to help the youngsters with tennis rackets, balls and other tennis paraphernalia, also the services of a qualified tennis coach to give lessons at

stated periods, and thereby starting them off right.
We feel sure that some of our sport loving men and women in Harlem will give the association financial aid in putting through this project, which will mean the building of better bodies and minds of some of our youth, and act as an inspiration to others who will no doubt follow.
Those desirous of aiding may get in touch with the Secretary, Mr. A. E. MacDowell of 554 Lenox avenue, or the President, Dr. T. E. Hanson, 101 West 140th street.
We have no apologies to offer, no do we have any misgivings for the part we played in arousing public opinion against the deficiencies of the tennis organization in New York. Our articles may have pluqed some of those concerned; this slight resentment will subside, however, as we feel that everyone wants progress, and we cannot correct a wrong by hiding it. We feel ashamed, as a tennis player, to be connected with an organization whose chief function seems to be one of satisfied indolence; we realized that the great Empire State was deserving of a representative tennis body in keeping with its importance as the leading state of the Union. To have kept quiet about conditions as they existed, would have been contrary to our conception of the loyalty we owe the game. Now that we have started on an era of progress, let us work for a coordination of the individual members of the associated clubs, their representatives in the association, and the officers of that body.
Rash Easily Defeated Sarvado at the 47th Regt. Armory Last Week
Kid Rash, crack bantam of the 369th Infantry, easily whipped Enrique Savardo. Filipino boxer of the 102nd Medical Regiment, in the feature eight round contest in the Forty-seventh Regiment Armory, Brooklyn, last Friday night. Savardo substituted for Dave Kanzer. Savardo stood up gamely under a severe pounding in the seventh. It was his stormiest session. Rash rocked him with lefts and rights to the jaw. Savardo appeared wabby, but made a game stand of it. In the closing seconds of the round Savardo displayed courage, wading in in fearless manner. Rash continued his attack in the final frame, beating his opponent to the punch to win by a considerable margin. Savardo finished none the worse for the beating he received, the judges awarding the verdict to Rash. The weights were: Rash, 118, and Savardo, 11916.
Danny Shugrue, crack lightweight of the U. S. Marines, won a hard fought battle from George Williams. Negro lightweight of the 369th Infantry, in the scent-final eight round tilt. This was a close waged affair. Shugrue won because he was the aggressor. He also landed the cleaner punches. Nevertheless, Williams gave a good account of himself. The judges awarded the verdict to Shugrue. The weights were: Shugrue, 137½, and Williams, 137.
Scotty Horsburg of the 105th infantry, Ansonia, Conn., stopped Murray Bresner of the Thirty-fifth Infantry, U. S. Army, in the seventh round of a scheduled eight round fracas. Bresner proved an easy mark for the hard hitting Horsburg. After two minutes and seven seconds Bresner's seconds threw a towel into the ring as a token of defeat. Horsburg weighed 117½ and Bresner 116.
In the two six round preliminary bouts Andy Masterlone of the Twenty-seventh Train Division and Red Roland of 244th Const Artillery fought a draw, and Al Gwynn of the 106th Infantry outpointed Hass Connolly, also of the 106th infantry.
In the opening four rounder Jimmy Empire and Roy Starke, both of the Twenty-seventh Train Division, battled on even terms.

Columbia Star Defeats Former De Witt Clinton High School Champ
Deck Took the Century by a Yard From Cooke, but Barely Won in the Furlong
Columbia's strong track team had no trouble continuing on its winning way when Coach Carl Merner's outfit faced Syracuse on Saturday in the first meet ever held at Baker Field. The final score was 74 to 48, with the Blue and White showing power in both the running and field events. The victors accounted for nine first places in the thirteen events contested.
Palmer Wright, Columbia junior, was the outstanding star of the meet, with three first places. The former Flushing High School boy easily won the 120-yard high and 220-yard low hurdles events and also was victorious in the high jump. In winning the high jump Wright topped the stick at 5 feet 11 inches, and defended Huber, of Syracuse, by one inch.
Stanley Deck, Columbia's star spinner, and Captain Carl Biggs, of the up-state forces, were double winners. The former won the 100 and 220 yard dashes, in each event defeating Cecil Cooke, ex-Dew Witt Clinton High School boy. Deck was victorious over the Negro luminary by a yard in the century, but barely won in the furlong. Cooke, of course, was at his best in the quarter-mile, his specialty, in which he holds the national senior and junior crowns.
In the feature race on the program Jim Loucks, of Syracuse, defeated Bill Schmid, Columbia's star.
The summaries:
100-Yard Dash—Won by Deck, Columbia; Cook, Syracuse, second; Denton, Syracuse, third, Time, 0:14:55.

Newark Stars Capture Both Ends of a Twin Bill at Jamaica Oval Sunday
Smith Leads His Players to a Walk-a-Way in the First Frame, but Found the Going a Little Harder in the Second
A' rally that netted six runs in the ninth inning of the second game was not enough to give the Jamaica Cardinals a victory over the Newark A. B. C. Colored Stars, the visitors capturing both ends of a twin bill, at Jamaica Oval Sunday afternoon. The first game was a walk-a-way for the colored players, who won by a score of 17 to 4. In the second game the Cards' ninth inning rally tied the count, but the A. B. C.'s stepped out to get four runs in the tenth.

Durgin then sent the ball into the center field bleachers for the circuit, scoring behind Ross and Wiley.
Four singles, a base on balls, an error, and a sacrifice gave the colored nine four runs in the first half of the tenth, while the Cardinals were unable to do anything with the offerings of Johnson, who followed Carr in the box for the Stars. Scales hit a home run for the Stars in the fifth frame.
The Stars had two big scoring innings in the first game, getting five runs in the third and eight in the eighth. The scores:

Good Colored Fighters Given a Chance in New York This Week
Chick Suggs Will Be at Madison Square Garden While Bruce Flowers Will Top Commonwealth Card
LOCAL fans of color were very much disheartened last week when they glimmed the offerings of the two places we have been taught to look to for the best of matches in the Greater City, to wit: The Commonwealth Sport Club and Madison Square Garden.
Down there, where so many of our good boys have been made to look bad through no fault of their own, Larry Estridge, who hasn't been the same since his last engagement with that former master of the ring, Panama Joe Gans, went in against Sergeant Sammy Baker, and the story told after the fight caused no sensation in Harlem.
It was expected that Baker would stow away the colored middle-weight champion. Better men than Estridge have fallen before the Mitchel Field soldier—men known to be able to assimilate oodles of punishment, and knowing Estridge as we do, we cannot see how anybody could think he had a chance against Baker.
At the Commonwealth Sport Club they promised Big Munn against Bill Bailey, and praise be it failed to materialize. Who Bill Bailey is we know not, neither do the fans in these parts, and the consensus of opinion was that Munn was being built up by being thrown a number of unknowns from the colored race. His first fight at the same club should not add any laurels to him, for who knew the unfortunate picked for him to murder?
But this week the story is different. Down at Madison Square Garden Chick Suggs, king of New England and the real champion of the bantams, will go in against Johnny Brown, while up here at the Commonwealth on Saturday night, Bruce Flowers will top a mixed card against Billy Palmer, son of the immortal Pedlar Palmer of England.
We are willing to wager that more colored fans will turn out this week than was the case last week, for when it wasn't a case of unknown and untried victims, as many believed, there was that poor, mighty poor, match that brought Baker and Estridge together. The old guard will most likely be on hand when the fireworks start at the Commonwealth this week and we hope that Matchmaker Eddie McMahon will be able to secure some other good fighters from among us to continue that splendid work started by his brother Jess, who for more than two years on a stretch not only gave our colored boys a chance, but went out of his way to secure promising material to put against the white boys.
The Hawtree Indians divided their twin bill with the Penn Red Caps at Community Stadium on Sunday, winning the first, 10 to 6, while the visitors copped the honors in the second, 10 to 9.
In the first game the homesters came from behind to tie the score in the third, getting three runs in this session. They kept up the onslaught on Stark till Revers took the hill and then scored three tallies in the sixth. In the last half of the seventh the home team had scored ten runs before one out was made and as the visitors were saving Wiley for the second game, Manager Sandt consented to halting the game and the score reverted back to the first half of the inning.
The second game found the colored lads a much improved outfit as they shifted around the players and this was a wise move, as they soon had Cullum on the run and pounded the offerings of Hokinson until he was relieved by Kaiser. Joe put a halt to the visitors' heavy stickwork and would have held them scoreless had a ball not rolled away from an outfielder. Kaiser is becoming quite popular with the fans, as he is the only Hawtree pitcher who is getting by in all his games. Joe has worked in three of the four games played. Wollweber is also giving signs of developing into a star as his catching is of the highest order. As yet no man has been fast enough to beat his throws to second.
Fred Mundhenk was the batting star of the day, getting two homers and three singles in eight times at bat. The scores:

Chicago Taking New Lease on Athletic Life Because of New Boxing Bill
And Recalls That Boxing Was Stopped in the Windy City After the Fight Between Terry McGovern, of Brooklyn, and Joe Gans, of Baltimore
CHICAGO. May 9.—The eyes of the world of fistlecuffs today are turned toward the city that hasn't seen a real boxing match in twenty-four years — Chicago — but which now looms as the scene of many of the leading bouts of this year.
Those same eyes have looked over, under, or around the mid-West metropolis for years because it wasn't legal to fight here. But the election of April 13 changed the whole boxing situation when voters of the city favored the legalization of boxing.

Batting Rally Gives Lincoln Giants an Even Break Against Bacharach Nine
Grier Puts Up Brilliant Mound Performance, but Had Streak Broken in the Ninth
After being defended by the expert pitching of Claude Grier in the first game of their double headed Sunday, the Lincoln Giants staged a batting rally in the second game and won an 11-7 victory from the Bacharach Giants. The Lincoln scored 9 runs in one inning of the second game and it required the whole pitching staff of the Atlantic City team to retire the side. Grier was in his best form for the opening encounter and almost pitched a no hit game. He held the local team hitless until the ninth inning. In that frame Singer and Hudspeth made singles and George Johnson made a two-bagger. The Bacharachs, on the other hand, hit Chambers hard, resulting in an 8-2 victory for them.
Manager Lloyd tried out one of his busher pitchers, a six foot boy by the name of Gillmore, in the second game, and although it was Gillmore's first appearance in league baseball the general consensus of opinion was that he made good. The visitors did their best to get Gillmore rattled but he was cool under fire as at any other time and it looks as though Lloyd has a real find in him.
However, he will be given a more severe test next Sunday when he faces the heavy-hitting Harrisburg Giants, whose manager is Oscar Charleston, the greatest player in the Eastern League, "Fut" Jankins, local basketball star, is also in the Harrisburg lineup.
The scores of the Lincoln-Bacharach games were:

CHICAGO. May 9.—The today are turned toward the boxing match in twenty-four y now looms as the scene of this year.
Those same eyes have le the mid-West metropolis for to fight here. But the elect whole boxing situation when legalization of boxing.
The boys in the Loop are already talking about the holding of a Dempsey-Wills fracas here. Floyd Fitzsimmons, the only man in the world who ever persuaded Harry and Jack to put their names on the same piece of paper, is known to favor this city for the match.
Gossip has it that some of the delay and dickering concerning this match has been due to a desire to see what Illinois would do with the boxing referendum before any action be taken regarding the scene of the battle.
Dempsey is also known to favor the Windy City. Willis doesn't care much where the fight is held. Another bout that quite likely will be held here is one between Sammy Mandell and Sid Terris for the lightweight championship of the world. It is also expected that Bud Taylor, the Terre Haute, Ind., flash, will appear here in a match for the bantamweight championship. Another match suggested is one between Young Stribling and Eddie Huffman, the rising young light heavyweight. These are only a few of the matches that should come Chicagoway, and it is quite likely that plenty of others will loom in a short time.
Already places in which fights may be held are at a premium. Jim Mullen, Chicago's leading promoter, has already bargained for the White Sox baseball park. The Colleum Athletic Club is a potential scene. Various promoters and organizations have already "scoped up" about all the available sights for holding the matches. It is the first time since 1902 that Chicago has had excuse to get excited about boxing. In 1902 the immortal Terry McGovern-Joe

Gans match was held here and is said to have resulted in the drastic law which was to forbid boxing.
Bout Fixed, Cry Fans.
A great deal of money had been wagered on Gans. When he lost the cry that the bout was fixed went up. Then a law was passed that made it illegal for even a father to box with his son in his own back yard, so airtight was it.
Then in 1900 Chicago boxing promoters learned that they could evade this law by holding "boxing matches." The prize-fight law did not say anything about "boxing exhibitions."
Carter Harrison, the mayor of the city at that time, permitted "boxing exhibitions." But the McGovern-Gans fight and subsequent developments stopped that and Chicago has gone without fighting since that time.

Negro Assistant to Peary in Pole Dash Recalls Story of Expedition
Matt Henson Interviewed by Brooklyn Times Writer and Recites Story of Frozen North at Request of White Publication This Week
MATT HENSON, Negro companion of the late Commander Peary on his trip to the North Pole and the only man living who ever laid eyes on that waste of ice up to the time of the successful Byrd expedition, recalled to a Brooklyn Times reporter the incident that he described as his life's biggest thrill.
Henson, who faced perils in the Far North such as try the souls of men, is working as a confidential messenger in the U. S. Customs House at Bowling Green, Manhattan. He is now fifty-nine years old and living quietly in the Bronx at 601 Grant avenue. He said:

"It is a wonderful thing that Commander Byrd and his companions have done. Just to think of it, in 15½ hours; less than a day's journey for us when we went, they reached the pole. I wish that I could make an aeroplane flight to the pole, but never again on foot for me. To go there by man power is killing and, then (with a little laugh), I'm getting altogether too young to try that any more."
Good-Humored and Affable.
Henson is a good-natured, very affable and frank man. He is slightly bald and has a small, dark mustache. He wears horn-rimmed spectacles.
In telling the story of his late adventure, he said:
"It took us from March 1 to April 6, or about 35 days, to get to the North Pole. When we reached there, the Pole did not live up to its press notices. All that we saw was a vast field of ice without any open water, broken here and there by a hummock, and with no animal life of any kind. It was an absolutely silent world.
"In fact, it didn't look much different from the way the North River might look if it were frozen over from shore to shore."
"We reached the pole, the commander, myself and four Eskimos who were with us, between S and R to cross in the evening, having traveled 413 geographical miles from Columbia, which we left on March 1. We were too tired to do anything except build igloos and tumble into them. But the next day Commander Peary made observations from four different quarters with a sextant and the use of mercury for an artificial horizon.
At the Top of the World.
"I shall never forget how he returned to me with glistening eyes and said: 'Well, my boy, in the more than twenty years that we have been together we have been trying to get to the apex of the earth. Today we can shake hands and say that we are two men who have reached at last the top of the world."
"At first it was hazy up there," said Henson, as his eyes took on a reexistent light, "but on the

"MY health wasn't any account at all," says Mrs. H. L. Cayton, of Washington, N.C. I would start to do my housework and I would give out before I had done anything at all. I did not have any strength, and if I did the least thing it seemed to me tax me so I could not finish. I was run-down enough. "Several of friends had taken Cardui and they said to me, 'Why don't you try it?' I knew I needed something to build up my general health and to increase my strength.
"Finally one day when I was recovering from a spell of sickness, I decided to try Cardul. I got a bottle and began to take it. I could notice that I was improving as my appetite got better and I did not give out nearly so quick. I took several bottles and I felt lots better.
"Two years ago I decided to take it again. It built me up and made me feel like a different person."
Cardul should help you, too.

He said:
morning of April 7 the Arctic sun came out and the weather was good. After he had taken his observations and made sure of the fact that we had reached the Pole—the first set of observations showed we had overshot it a little bit—Commander Peary made a record of the event and wrote all our names and the date and time in a little notebook.
"He put the record in a metal tube six inches long and one and one-half inches wide. Of course, that tube would not remain there, but would be carried away by the movement of the ice.
"In the first stages of our journey to the Pole we had our most difficult march. We walked eleighteen or twenty hours a day until we were ready to drop, and we had to stop time and time again to break through the huge hummocks of ice which confronted us. In spots they were 50 to 100 feet high.
Assistant to Peary.
"I was the trail breaker after Captain Bartlett turned back to the ship which we left on February 16, 1999, at Cape Sheridan. Grantland, 80 miles south of Cape Columbia. We went forward on snowshoes and after we had gone forward about a mile or so we doubled and picked up the sledges. Then we would leave the sledges and break a path ahead once more. "Often these hummocks shut out any view of the horizon in front of us and they were so difficult to contend with that at one time it took us a whole day to get over one of them. We went forward in twos, each couple close together. We had eight dog teams. I was in charge of the equipment. I ordered the whale boats used in the expedition and designed and made the sledges. I also did carpenter work. My job was that of an assistant to Commander Peary.
"Going out from Cape Columbia the first stages of our journey were mighty rough and we had to wield a pickaxe constantly to cut the ice. At one time the ice in motion sounded like thunder as it moved swiftly to the eastward and it cut right into our igloo.
"The rough going made it impossible for us to go more than 15 miles a day, so you can see how the flight by air compares with man power. Commander Peary often said that he thought that the real way to reach the Pole would be by air, and I believe that he set apart or offered Eagle Island as a base for aircraft.
"On that long tramp North, walking every day until we were ready to drop, and doubling back after trotting a trail so as to bring up our sledges, we lived on ternican, which is dried beef, hard tack, and each man was permitted one quart of tea a day.
"When some of the dogs grew weak and could not go any further they were killed, and the third quarters fed to the other dogs, while the forequarters were eaten by us. We called it terminican. It was not so bad, either.
"As we neared the region of the pole, conditions of travel improved and the last 125 miles or so were much easier going. Sometimes, one or other of us broke through the ice, but always managed to get out before we had sunk below the waist. We left the pole on the eighth, after sleeping at night in igloos on the ice floes.
"There was no place up there that offered a safe landing place for aircraft. On our way back we were able to go much faster, because we had the trail which we had cut on the way up. But, sometimes, it was rather difficult for us to find it, and we had to scout around until we picked it up again.
"We were able sometimes, with the aid of our slodges, to make no much as 50 miles in a day of 18 or 20 hours and frequently 25 or 30. "It was 25 or 30 degrees below zero at the Pole and there were soft drifts of snow there. Otherwise, it was just an ice waste, without any prominent features." Henson said he had been on previous expeditions with Commander Peary, the first in 1891, and from then until 1909, when the Pole was found, he went frequently to the Arctic regions with the American naval officer. Henson was born in Cape Charles, Md., and when he made his first trip to the Arctic regions with Peary he had just returned from an expedition to Nicaragua, where it is quite warm. He remarked somewhat succinctly that being unacquainted with conditions in the Arctic region, he failed to dress for his first trip and wore over his coat and waistband

only a sealskin coat, two pairs of woolen stocks and ordinary rubbers over his shoes. Pulled down over his head, he wore a woolen cap. "I froze my nose and the rest of my face, somewhat," he said. "But later I learned better and took measures to protect myself properly. On inter trips I suffered no more than anybody else. I was the hunter for the party, as well as being in charge or equipment."
Little Boy Burned to Death
HEMPSTEAD, L. I., May 9.—Thomas Coles, Jr., 6 months old, was burned to death and his brother, Roger, 2 years old, was seriously burned, here last week when fire destroyed the one-story house in which they lived. Roger was taken unconscious to the Nassau County Hospital, where it was said his condition was serious. The origin of the blaze was not determined.
Attorney Rufus Perry Bites Through Side of Flushing House
Popular Brooklyn Barrister Gives Unique Demonstration in Queens Supreme Court
"I have always been opposed to houses being sold to people on plans and pictures, and then, when built, not conforming to the representations made," declared Justice Mitchell May in the Queens Supreme Court in denying the motion of Mendel Presberger, an officer and director of the Flushing Lawns Corporation, to foreclose a mortgage held by Presberger on the premises of Charles V. Richey, 7131 1608 street, Flushing.
Director of Corporation.
The Richey premises is one of the so-called "paper houses" in queens. The motion was made by the plaintiff (Presberger) for judgment on the pleadings, that is, on the complaint and answer, without permitting the defendant the right to hear it. She is only authorized usually in cases where the answer of the defendants admit, or does not controvert, the allegations of the complaint.
Richie's answer, served April 17, to the torreclosure suit, alleged fraud on the part of Presberger in the making of the mortgage. Richie's answer further contends that Presberger is a director of the Flushing Lawn Corporation and that the mortgage which he sought to foreclose was given by the Flushing Lawn Corporation to Presberger, its director for the express purpose of writing on the purchaser of the house; to divest the corporation of its assets to which the purchaser of the house would have a right to look for redress and to otherwise render itself financially irresponsible.
Justice May, in denying the motion, said that fraud was alleged in the answer and that he would permit the attorneys to stipulate to try the cases next Friday. Takes Bite Out of Wall. Attorney Rufus Perris of Brooklyn who represents Riley, produces a piece of the material which he alleges, is "composition paper," that the sides and roof of Richey's house were constructed of, into Queens Supreme Court and standing before Justice May bit a large piece out of the material to demonstrate his claims as to its filmy qualities. Richey, in his answer, charges that the house, built by the Flushing Lawns Corporation, their agent, was built as represented. The affidavits submitted in his answer read in part:
"The sides and roof of sold houses were built and constructed of a composition paper, which is highly inflammable and dangerous to like and limb—sold house was built in violation of the Building Code of the City of New York and such was known to the plaintiff." Coleman
He further contends that while the houses were being purchased that, Presberger, through the agents, entered into a conspiracy with James Coleman, a building inspector, whose district covered the premises:
"To permit the erection of said house of faulty and inferior material, contrary to an ample by the painting, violation of the Building Code of the City of New York and caused the Queens Building Bureau to issue a certificate of occupancy on false reports made by Joseph Feldman."
James Coleman, the inspector named in the affidavits of Richey, resigned several months ago as an assistant to the charge of the charge by Richey was started by Borough President Maurice E. Connolly and Superintendent John W. Moore of the Queens Building Bureau.

Acquit Brooklyn Pastor of Charges Brought Against Him by Church Members
Almost Two Thousand Dollars Given Reverend Harten as a Testimonial of Confidence by His Congregation
THOSE members of the congregation of Holy Trinity Baptist Church, De Kalb and Franklin avenues, who last week testified against their pastor, the Rev. Dr. Thomas S. Harten, before Justice Callaghan in the Supreme Court, will not be proceeded against for perjury, according to the statement of Dr. Harten last week. Retaliation will consist only in their dismissal from the church.
Dr. Harten was acquitted Tuesday afternoon on five charges, including false arrest, slander and assault, brought against him by John Fletcher Paige and his wife, Ollie, former members of his congregation. During the trial, at which the Paiges were represented by Frank Harvey Field, and Harten by Rufus Perry, about half a dozen members of the congregation gave testimony against thir pastor. The church's Board of Deacon's is the opinion that these persons are the members whom Dr. Harten has described as "the disgruntled who wish to get rid of me at any price." That the sentiment of the church is at present wholly in favor of Dr. Harten was demonstrated at the services held on Sunday. There were loud and resounding cheers when several of the members verb-

ally declared their confidence in the pastor. Deacon Stephen Gray congratulated Dr. Harten on his victory and joined with Allan Dillard, another of the deacons, in commending him as the best pastor the church has ever had. R. Austin and Miss Lillian Corbett also made congratulatory speeches, while Mrs. Nancy White, president of the church's missionary society, presented Dr. Harten with a basket of roses, gift of the congregation. The only disturbance to mar the harmony was the apparent venom of one of the erstwhile witnesses for the plaintiff, a woman, who, as Dr. Harten entered the vestibule of the church Sunay, made a gesture as if to strike him and used abusive language, according to several of the bystanding members. A skirmish was avoided, however, by Dr. Harten's stepping out of her reach and continuing into the church.
Other testimonials of confidence were the gift of a purse of $700 from the congregation and the donation of a $1,000 bill by an individual member. Dr. Harten's sermon treated with "Mother's Day."
His only remark to his congregation concerning his plans for disposition of the insurgent members was: "Charges of perjury will not be brought against those here who lifted their voices against me in court. I have no desire to even collect those damages which are due me. My only wish is to return good for evil."
The Board of Deacons, which will meet within ten days, will consider the expulsion of the insurgent members.
Virginia Sons Hold Meeting

Haynes Emphasizes Church Strength
Speaking before the General Conference of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church in Kansas City last Friday night, Dr. George E. Haynes, Secretary Commission on the Church and Race Relations, Federal Council of Churches, said in part:
"The Negro group must meet the conditions of the Negro church or organization. What organization has the Negro comparable to the Negro Church? First, in the matter of numbers there are more Negroes actually enrolled in Negro church denominations than in all the other organizations put together except the secret societies. Look at the matter of the strength of age and the number of Negroes more than 100 years old and has survived and grown each decade.
What is the evidence when we turn to the matter of financial power and support? Today there is probably more money invested in Negro church property than any other one phase of Negro economic life and that makes more money for general and specific purposes than all of Negro business organizations.
clates, and Counsellor David C. Outlear, superintendent of the Adult Department.
Michaels University was the speaker at the J. C. Price Lyceum at 10 o'clock. He spoke upon "Training in Citizenship in the School and in the Home." Musical program was rendered by representatives of the Manhattan Temple, Eureka Temple, the Clarence Williams Music Publishing Co., Mus. Walters and other artists. Next Sunday Burgen, sobering in a full their of Philadelphia, Pa., at the Lyceum hour, Mr. Nicholson, bartonite; Miss Philth Burgen, sobering; Mrs. Bassie Thomas Russell, contralto, and others. Address by Supreme Court Justice Philip McBook.
"Turn, if you will, to the personnel. With all the criticism of its ministry, from local preachers to bishops and general officers, presidents and moderators there, and ministers begin and act within the ranks of the leadership of the church than in any other of our professional groups except probably the teaching profession. But, after all, where lies the organized power of the church? The church is the most unique of our institutions and agencies, which would be based on basis it does. Could the theatres last six months by giving everybody the privilege who came to make a voluntary collection for its support?
"The Protestant Negro churches have grown rapidly the past 60 years. With their bishops, their presidents of conventions, moderators, district superintendents, and central ministers they have made great headway in organizing and serving the people in many ways.
"What is the call, now, that comes as the great challenge of this our day to this giant organized power in the Negro church? There are two types of things that the two bodies of the Negro church must be to justify its place of power and responsibility. (1) It must realize its opportunity and begin to function in that opportunity as the great agent for dealing with the social and community conditions in the internal life of the Negro church, and every one of the great centers of population now numbering more than 70 cities where Negroes are congregated in great numbers the problem of their place in industry is no longer and can no longer be the question of the individual. The question of the nation can be met by organized labor, but the white labor unions would have taken a different attitude toward the Negro worker if the organized power in the Negro church had been a functioning factor in dealing with the wage and work conditions of the great masses. I know questions of the church; but my friends, these are questions of life and labor, and can the problems of life and labor be separate from religion? Is not the great function of religion to solve the problems of life and labor? If, then the church, or the government, it must deal with these practical problems of life and labor.
"Again, let us look at the great housing issues now so crucial in every one of our northern cities. This involves not only the question of the internal condition of the Negro, but involves his relationship with his white neighbors. If the Negro church in personnel and social service organization was today able to step out in the forefront of the problem of adjusting the housing, community conditions and conditions of Negroes in a hundred cities and towns north and south, we would immediately see a new day in both the internal community life of the Negro and his relationships with his white neighbors.
"Turn in another direction. Look at the great leisure-like needs of these teaming millions who are crowding into our industrial and commercial centers. They are havingings—mores money than they have ever known before. Their hours of work are shortening and their hours of leisure are lengthening. What is being provided to take care of this leisure? In many communities, their right and opportunity to furnish the outlet for these leisure-time activities."
Mother Zion Church
The largest Mother's Day celebration in the history of Mother Zion Church took place Sunday. Rev. J. W. Brown preached from Prov. 1:8—"My Son, Forsake Not the Law of Thy Mother."

IN MEMORY OF THE LATE Obertie F. Lawton
W. H.
LAWTON—One month ago my beloved husband, Obertie F. Lawton, of 257 West 136th street, New York City, departed this life to live in the great beyond. He was a faithful, true and Christian husband, being a member of Baptist Temple Church of New York, under spiritual guidance of Rev. Chas. Douglass, and a member of the deacons' board of that church.
His other affiliations were the F. and A. Masons, Excelsior Lodge of Odd Fellows, St. Luke's Council, Clubmen's, Coachmen's and Southern Beneficial Leagues and Knights of Pythias.
For five years he was a member of the dining car service, coming into contact with men on the road, who loved and respected him.
He left a wife, one sister, three brothers, nephews, nieces and a host of friends to mourn his passing.
"We shall meet to part no more on that resurrection more."
His loving wife,
MARY F. LAWTON.

Discrimination Against Colored Children by Rural Towns Charged in Report - Howard Long Flays Intelligence Tests
TRENTON, May 7.—Small towns of south Jersey discriminate against the colored children. This was the charge brought to the attention of the twelfth annual meeting of the New Jersey Organization of Teachers of Colored Children which met at the New Lincoln school of Trenton to-day. Swedensboro, Heverly, Glassboro, Cinnaminson, Salem, and Cape May were among the towns and townships of New Jersey which were declared by President L. B. Granger to be more typical of Georgia and South Carolina than of an unlightened northern community. Unequal salaries for colored teachers, unsanitary buildings, and text books in poor condition were some of the ways in which one or another of these towns were alleged to discriminate against their colored pupils.
Howard H. Long, Assistant superintendent in charge of Research of Washington schools, was the principal speaker of the afternoon. Mr. Long flagged the present method of using intelligence tests and of inferring from these tests that Negroes are inferior mentally. Annitting that according to the tests, Negroes rate lower as a whole, the speaker went on to expose the fallacy of many methods of application. For instance, Harlen Negroes average higher than southern whites of South Carolina, Georgia and Florida.
A filing was taken at the popular Nordic cult that is finding so much favor among pseudo and near scientists of today. Southern states, whose stock is almost pure in "Nordic" rate consistently at the foot of the ladder when it comes to statistics on venereal disease, criminality, feeble-mindedness, etc., while Massachusetts, Maine, and Vermont, with a racial stock of non-Nordic origin, rate at the head. Helen Weld, a white high school pupil of Englewood, was the winner of the organization's prize in the short story contest. The conditions of the contest demanded that each contestant write a story depicting the charm of the colored child. Miss Melissa A. Jones of Atlantic City was the chairman of the literary committee.
The following officers were repre-
ceded for the coming year: Lester B. Granger, Horntown, president; Gertrude P. Williams, Moorstown, vice-president; W. H. Johnson, Condon, treasurer; Cornelia E. Chamber of Atlantic City, recording secretary; W. M. Morrell, Horntown, corresponding secretary; T. Montgomery Gregory, Atlantic City, field agent.

"OCCASIONALLY I am troubled with spells of constipation," says Mrs. John L. Pence, Broadway, Va. "I always use Theford's Black-Draught when I feel a spell of this kind coming on, for it saves me a bad headache. My color gets sallow at times. I get real yellow. "I have found Black-Draught to be the finest kind of a remedy for this. I take Black-Draught and make a tea out of it, and take it, along in small doses for several days. I have never found anything that served me so well.
"Since I have known about Black-Draught, I have not suffered nearly so much with headache, caused from indigestion. If I find my tongue is coated, and I wake up with a bad taste in my mouth, I know I have been eating indiscreetly, and I immediately resort to Black-Draught to straighten me out."

Low-Rent Houses in Sight
THE ANNOUNCEMENT that John D. Rockefeller, Jr., has purchased sixty city lots in the northern extremity of Negro Harlem, on which he plans to erect low-rent apartment houses for colored tenants, offers the most tangible solution of the acute moderatelypriced housing shortage prevailing in this section of the city. While the area in which Negroes live has more than doubled itself since the war, the rents charged in apartment houses thus opened and in the new houses erected during the same period have been so exorbitant that honest working people of small means have not been benefited in the least.
WHAT HAVE BEEN THE RESULTS?
Summarized by the New York Urban League, they are:
"Exorbitant rents necessitate three, four and five average families living in a flat intended for just one family. In many cases children are forced to work to meet the demands of greedy landlords. Mothers also are forced to toil at actual manual labor, while their children are left at home neglected.
"Delinquency, immorality and other equally deplorable conditions are an inevitable offshoot of this mode of life.
"The menace to health presented in this situation is very great. The sanitary conditions resulting from this abnormal overcrowding have been responsible for the spreading of contagious diseases in the 'colored belt' and many consequent deaths."
THEREFORE, we know of no other humanitarian purpose to which Mr. Rockefeller could devote a portion of his wealth, especially that part of it he has devoted to Negroes, than the building of apartment houses people can afford to live in and yet return a reasonable profit to their owners. His philanthropic ventures in Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. building for Negroes, his generous contributions to Negro schools and colleges, social and charitable agencies, are not near so important in comparison as the providing of decent homes for the immediate relief of a condition which makes charity necessary.
THE CUSTOM of observing Mother's Day antedates the Christian era, though the specific designation of the second Sunday in May was but recently made in the United States. The worship of Rhea, great mother of the gods, was introduced into Rome, through Greece. 250 years before Christ, and elaborate ceremonies held on the Ides of March each year, since which time its significance has gradually taken on its present meaning.
"WHITE SERVITUDE in Pennsylvania" is the title of a book by Dr. Checsman A. Herrick, president of Girard College.
The British Strike
ENGLAND is now in the midst of an economic upheaval second only to the opening days of the World War. Already the miners' strike has involved more than two and a half million workers in the principal industries of the country. England today is an armed camp-armed against itself. Eventually, and unless the strike is called off, or unless the striking miners' and operators agree to arbitration, there will be serious consequences in every part of the British domain and the entire civilized world.
THE CAUSES of the strike are stated and restated from day to day and need no reiteration here, beyond mention of the fact that the wages of striking miners ranged from $1.62 to $2.62 per shift, and that the new terms, which the miners refused to accept, reduced the wage per shift by from twenty-eight to eighty-five cents, presenting an unattractive inducement for the importation of workers, white or black, from any section of the world other than those under the British domain.
WE ARE MORE INTERESTED in the consequences than in the causes of the strike. The population of the British Empire is about five hundred million, four hundred million of which is of the darker races. Should complete disruption set in—and it is sure to set in unless the strike is settled—a new day for these races will dawn.
H. R. 9694
HAVING WEATHERED a filibuster in the House of Representatives, the Hamilton Fish Bill for the erection of a monument to American Negro troops brigaded with' the French now goes to the Senate Committee on Military Affairs. With the exception of Representative Stephen G. Porter, of Pittsburgh, every Republican in the House is recorded as having voted for the bill.
WHAT the record in the Senate will be cannot be foretold. Senator James W. Wadsworth, of New York, is chairman of the committee and the same pressure that was brought to bear in the House should now be directed at Senator Wadsworth and other members of the committee to assure a favorable report on it.
ONE SOUTHERN Congressman, claiming to number many Negroes in his constituency, in opposing the bill said that they were not interested in its passage. Present such an assumption on the part of the members of the Senate Committee by writing them and telling them that you are in favor of the bill. Aside from Senator Wadsworth, the other northern and border Senators on the committee are: Francis E. Warren, of Wyoming; Ralph E. Cameron, of Arizona; Frank L. Greene, of Vermont; Hiram Bingham, of Connecticut; W. H. McMaster, of South Dakota; W. P. Pine, of Oklahoma; Arthur R. Robinson, of Indiana; William Cabell Bruce, of Maryland, and Lawrence D. Tyson, of Tennessee. Mention the Bill by number, H. R. 9694.
THE VALUE of public school building in Georgia has just been shown to be $58.72 for each white child and $10.02 for the Negro child; expenditures for new buildings per child, white, $2.84; Negro, 27 cents; expenditures for equipment per child, white, 40 cents; Negro, 3 cents. There is no corresponding disproportion in the assessment of taxes.
"White" Christians
"White" Christians
By WILLIAM PICKENS
THERE are white skins science will have it: t brown ones. But a Christians? Is color a qual seem so, else we should hape are all hypocrites and r seem to be "white" Y. M "white" Baptists. Methodist
THERE are white skins and black ones — or as strict science will have it: there are lighter skins and dark-brown ones. But are there "white" and "black" Christians? Is color a quality of Christianity? It would seem so, else we should have to conclude that white people are all hypocrites and not ever real Christians. There seem to be "white" Y.M.C.A.s, "white" Y.W.C.A.s, "white" Baptists, Methodists, etc., etc.
There is a school on Gramercy Park, New York, which has the erf宗tery to announce itself as TRAINING SCHOOL FOR CHRISTIAN WORKERS. That is a forgery: they have deliberately left out the word "white." They are therefore deceivers and swindlers.
Miss Carrie G. Hargrave, of Wilmington, N. C., seeing this forged label, wrote the school in good faith, as she desired to become a "Christian worker." and received the following letter:
"My dear Miss Hargrave:
Your letter reached me this morning and I regret to say that we do not accept colored students in our school.
I would suggest your writing to the National Bible Institute.
"I am glad to know you are interested in taking training for Christian social service, for there is an increasing demand for trained leaders.
"Will you please fill in the enclosed blank and return to me, giving me the names and addresses of three persons who know you well, to whom I can write for letters of reference?
"Will you also please send me your latest photograph?
"You will be interested in looking over the enclosed weekly schedule, which will give you some idea of our daily program.
"Very sincerely yours.
(Signed)
"CHARLOTTE A. PORTER"
Then the unsuspecting Miss Hargrave, with a heart full of Christian hope, filled out the blanks honestly, compiled with

The friends of Hon. Perry W. Howard, Republican National Committeeman from Mississippi and assistant to the United States Attorney General, were gratified to learn that he was exonerated from the charges made by Representative Jeff Busby, Democrat, of Mississippi.
It seems that Representative Busby, a disciple of Vardaman, does not take kindly to the idea of a colored man dispensing patronage in Mississippi, as all matters of Federal patronage are referred to Howard for a recommendation, which is always predicated upon the recommendations of the chairman and secretary of the local county organization of the county in which the office lies, who are, in the majority of cases, colored

He did not make any spread-eagle speech, did not attempt to play on the racial passions or prejudices of his hearers—but talked sense. In the course of his address he paid a tribute to Attorney Thomas Walker which "in felicity of
It is a law of physics that one and the same body cannot occupy two separate and distinct places at one and the same time, and it is equally true in psychic affairs that one and the same individual cannot be a lamb and a lion at one and the same time.
Now, this is the unique position which the Hon. Perry W. Howard seems to occupy at present. At the same time that a few colored men up North and out West are calling him an "Uncle Tom," a few Caucasians down in Mississippi are calling him a Czar and Dictator. How can we solve this Sphinx riddle? The Sphinx riddle was: "Who is the being that walks first on four feet, then on two, and then on three?" The answer of Oedipus was "MAN."
So the answer of the question, "How can Hon. Perry W. Howard seem to be an "Uncle Tom" and a Czar at one and the same time?" is that he is a "MAN." How can this be? Homer or some other Greek poet says of King Aeolus, the Greek god of the winds, that he knew when to hold in check the winds and when to let them loose. That is what every successful statesman does. That is what the Hon. Perry W. Howard does. He knows when to say: "This is a trivial matter; it does not involve the self-respect of my race or nation or my integrity as a man, and I can concede a point here"; and when to say: "This is a vital matter that involves the self-respect of my race or nation and my integrity as a man; I must hence make a stand here."
Any colored man who can become a political leader in Southern States, as Judge Joseph Lee did in Florida. Wright Cuney in Texas. Henry Lincoln Johnson in Georgia, and James Hill in Mississippi, and as Perry W. Howard does in Mississippi at the present time, must be another King Aeolius—must possess a blending of common sense and manliness. Hence, we solve our Sphinx riddle by saying that the Hon. Perry W. Howard is neither an "Uncle Tom" nor a Czar, but a man of the King vogue type.
I must heard Mr. Howard speak in public at the banquet in honor of Assistant District Attorney Thomas L. Jones last

all other requests, even sending along her "brown" Christian photograph, and returned the same to the pseudo-Christian school. And immediately from the so-called Christian dean there came the following revealing letter:

Now, in the name of Jeeus Christ, I wish to ask: Why don't the pure food laws compel these hypocrites and swindlers to label their canned religion for what it is by printing the important word "white" clearly and distinctly on their advertisements and their goods? Honest and innocent people should not be perpetually exposed to being double-crossed, embarrassed, sometimes burdened with expense, and finally politely and religiously insulted by these prayer-making "Christian" sharks.

July. I was first impressed by his manly bearing, his ease of manner and the note and ring of sincerity in his voice. I was next impressed by what he said and by what he did not say. He did not make any spread-eagle speech, did not attempt to play on the racial passions or prejudices of his hearers—but talked sense. In the course of his address he paid a tribute to Attorney Thomas Walker which, "in felicity of phrase," was worthy of Chaucey M. Depew. He talked not as a Negro speaking to a group of Negroes about Negro problems, but as a man and an American citizen talking to other men and other American citizens about the things that concern humanity in general and this country in particular. I saw then that Mr. Howard has a cool, level head and a good heart. He was something more than an intellectual machine. He was a man with a soul and a conscience.
"What the colored citizens need at present is not representatives who will crawl on all fours like a dog, tamely accepting segregation, or bray like the ass in the lion's skin in Aesop's Fables, making boasts and threats that they cannot carry out; but representatives who will feel that they are made out of the same clay as the rest of mankind and are created in the divine image, possessing those characteristics and attributes which differentiate man from the beasts of the fields. Such a man is the Hon. Perry W. Howard.

Know New York State
New York State was first seen by a white man when in 1552 Giovanni del Verrazano, a Florentine in the service of Francis I of France, sailed into the mouth of the Hudson River. This was nearly a century earlier than the arrival of Henry Hudson in the Half Moon. In the waters of the Empire State are found 375 different kinds of fish. Of these the oyster and the bluefish are the most important.
The boundaries of the state are 1,500 miles long, and it is only thirtieth among the states in area, though it leads in population and wealth. The 40,000 miles of high-power transmission lines in New York would girdle it 27 times, and the 20,000 miles of gas mains nearly 14 times. There would be an electric meter every 80 feet along each line and a gas meter every 40 feet along the circling mains.
New York State leads in reforestation, and since 1900 has planted 98,311,000 young trees, nearly as many as have been planted in this time by the national government in all the Federal forests.
The first school in the state was established in 1633 by the Dutch inhabitants of New Amsterdam. The common school system, approximately as in operation now, was not set up until 1812. The death rate in New York is steadily decreasing. The total number of deaths last year, 142,428, was only 200 more than the total for 1965, although the population of the state has increased by three million since then.
Know New York State
The Hudson, New York's greatest waterway, was originally known as the Mauritius, and later as the North River. In 1609 it was renamed in honor of the famous navigator who in that year sailed up the river in the good ship Half-Moon.
New York State's industries range from furniture to turs and from printing to peaches. Of a total of 28 industries listed for classification, United States Government, 242 are represented in the Empire State.
In 1925 the production of electrical energy in New York State for the first time passed the ten billion kilowatt-hour mark, and that of manufactured gas the one hundred billion cable feet mark. Both are records among the states, and respectively to represent, respectively one-fourth of the electricity and one-fourth of the manufactured gas produced in the entire country.
The most valuable mineral products of the Empire State are her clay products. Bricks, porcelains and terra-cotta together make up 30 per cent of the value of all the state's mineral production. In addition to seventeen state charitable institutions, there are new work about 900 other, maintained by counties, municipalities or private agencies. All are regularly inspected by the State Board of Charities.
Farm Population Decreases 1.5 Per Cent
A continued decrease in farm population in the United States is reported by the Department of Agriculture, which estimates that there are 479,000 fewer people on farms January 1 this year than on January 1 a year ago.
The Department estimates the farm population at 20,555,000 on January 1, 1926, compared with 31,134,000 on January 1, 1925, a decrease of 1.5 per cent. These figures include all men, women and children living on farms.
The movement from farms to cities, towns and villages in 1935 is estimated at 203,060,000 and the movement to farms at 1,133,000, a net movement away from farms of 991,000 persons. Births on farms during 1935 are estimated at 710,000 and deaths at 288,000, leaving a natural increase of 422,000, which reduced the loss due to cityward movement to 479,000. The figures for 1924 showed a net loss in farm population of 182,000 persons. The gross movement from farms to cities in that year was 2,075,000 and the gross movement back to farms was 1,336,000, a net movement, not counting births and deaths, of 679,000 persons.

By E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M. D.
CUSTOM and the social status have changed considerably. The old-time modesty of girls and young women is now looked upon as provincial and unnecessary. "Freedom" is the slogan of the new woman, and just now this "freedom" seems to be leaning towards the side of license, as far as sex matters go. Personally, I feel that this tendency of unguarded liberty in things social is causing moral delinquency among a large number of young women.
This new freedom in things social should be supplemented by a knowledge of sex hygiene. Every girl and young woman should have this knowledge imparted to her by a mother or some elderly guardian. Impressions should be given of the sacredness of the womanly functions and the injuries of disease that may accompany illicit indulgences. Impressions thus given will last long and will help the defensive power of their wills.
being has passions which, though dormant, may be aroused, and thus inhibitory inductions are necessary to act as a sedative against such stimulants. Sex education and knowledge of the dangers and the physical and mental diseases which may be a result of such illicit indulgences is as necessary to a young woman as the education and knowledge in things pertaining to business or household care.
Remember, your girl is developing. Physiologically, her sex organs will begin to function and, unless certain inhibitory influences are present in the girl's mind, the will-power may break down under sexual stimulations.
These are the days of free and intimate social contacts between boys and girls, young women and men. The dance, the theatre, the social entertainments, the intoxicating jazz music, all produce a familiarity that can easily develop into attempted liberties, once the natural modesty and reserve of the young girls is encroached upon.

IT IS interesting to note the type of English writers who have lately used the Negro as material for fiction. They are all men of delicate tastes. Leonard Merrick the novelist, with his "Quaint Companions"; David Garnett, writer of fantastic tales, with "The Sailor's Return"; Ronald Firbank, whose "Prancing Nigger" has been compared to "Alice in Wonderland," and Haldane MacFall, author of "The Wooings of Jezebel Pettyvier," whose other works concern themselves with such subjects as "French Pastelists" and "The History of Painting." It is a compliment to the African that such men have depicted him.
In America he has been used largely in burlesque. His humor has been depicted as buffoonery. Du Bols Heyward, with a poet's sensitiveness, sets the beauty and tragedy in Porgy, and his surroundings, but no one in the United States has revealed the wit and charm of the Negro as has the Englishman.
Full would see changes should he be put in command of a company of Zouaves in Jamaica today. But certainly he caught the wonderful imagery of the speech of the black men among whom he was thrown.
Ronald Firbank and Haldane MacFall have written of the Negro of the British West Indies. "Prancing Nigger" is a dream of an enchanting island in the West Indies, where the country malden wears a garland of flowers for clothing, and where the city, like other cities, beckons, and clothes captivate, and at last soils. The title is unfortunate. It leads one to expect burlesque to book the delicate suggestive, a scene appears only to fade away. Its laughter is fraught with pain. One's only criticism is that the book is far too short.
This fault can never be laid at the door of "The Wooings of Jezebel Pettyfer," which would be better if it were shorter. It falls off at the last, and one is a little provoked to find so many interesting characters all come to a bad end. To be sure Jezebel, whose name describes her perfectly, lives triumphant, but she is continually not much concerned with the fact that it is the setting and the wit that make Jezebel Pettyfer.
The major part of the book is laid in Jamaica, and the characters are black men of a company of Zouaves, together with the clerk and schoolmaster and loose women who freeride the saloon of the Negro Knickleback. The saloon has been made by colored readers that this is not a fair picture of the West Indian Negro. Of course it is not. But what story that revolved about a soldier's life would be? It seems quite as decent a crowd as Kipling drew in "Soldiers Three," and immeasurably funnier. At times the white man often. Moreover the book is a reprint, having appeared first in 1897.

being has passions which, though dormant, may be aroused, and thus inhibitory influences are necessary to act as a sedative against such stimulants. Sex education and knowledge of the dangers and the physical and mental diseases which may be a result of such illicit indulgences is as necessary to a young woman as the education and knowledge in things pertaining to business or household care. In no other way can self-protection be possible.
There is a little book, entitled "Ten Sex Talks to Girls," published by J. B. Lippincott Co. of Philadelphia, Pa., which I can heartily recommend to mothers. This book will help them to impart this knowledge to their daughters in both a scientific and pleasing manner. Many a "social outcast" has been made so through the lack of the required knowledge in sex relationship. Your duty and your obligation, therefore, is to send your daughter out into the world with proper knowledge, so that she may go through the fire unscathed.

Jezebel Pettyfer in her delicate muslin draperies is captivating. She makes a "Lin Belle" tawdy. Her justification of her life is too long to quote, but she brings Scripture, all too convincingly, to her aid.

There is culture in the book and much thievery. But the story is tawdry. One is concerned, not only with the comments upon the happenings. It ends with this philosophy: "For myself, said Wilberforce Gumma, the chemist, who had the reputation of being a thinker, "I don't hold much wud de idea that God made everything too good. I don't hold much other yo' is bound to lower de credit of de Creator."
