SEGREGATION GETS O.K. Harlem Chorus Recital Friday Evening Harlem Promised Another Unique Recital Thursday ADVANCE sale of tickets for the Premier Recital Friday evening of the Harlem Community Chorus in Public School No. 136, 135th street and Edgecombe avenue, moved off with a bang Monday morning and has continued with increasing momentum. This has been due chiefly to the fact that all the seats in the Auditorium are reserved. Then, too, those who recall the splendid musical affair given in Town Hall last August, under the auspices of The Amsterdam News, have every reason to expect that the Chorus' first recital will be equally as artistic a presentation. At first it was thought that by giving the concert in Harlem an entirely colored audience would attend, but so far as many reservations have been made by white music lovers as have been made by Negroes. Jessie A. Zackery, guest-soloist of the Chorus, will probably be heard to greater advantage on Friday evening than at any time since she came to the city. This remarkable soprano is forcing herself to the front by the sheer beauty of her voice and the excellence of her training, received in Denver and here under Oscar Sanger. As long as they last, reservations may still be made in the Brooklyn and New York Offices of The Amsterdam News. What few, if any at all, are left Friday evening will be placed on sale at the Public School at 8:00 p.m. The program is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. The Vanishing African DR. H. H. LAUGHLIN (white), of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, states that within four generations the American Negro, now 9.9 per cent of the total population, will have shrunk to but 6.89 per cent. The good doctor further sings his swan song by saying that within the same span of time the United States will be dominated by descendants of present foreign-born residents, who, it is presumed, because of their prolific ways, will multiply more rapidly than native stock, black and white. Were this unhappy absorption to continue, the African would all but have vanished within the next fifteen generations, and the difficult problems of interracial adjustment in America would have disappeared. There is no galssaying the fact that intermixture in the South and intermarriage in the North are taking a heavy toll from the African ranks. Even so, Dr. Laughlin should take into consideration the tremendous trend now on foot to reduce the Negro to ghetto life. The Indianapolis ordinance, when coupled with all the other state and municipal enactments aimed to keep the Negro in the pose of half a man rather than a whole man, are bound, if nothing intervenes, to go a long way towards defeating Dr. Laughlin's prediction. At least, during the next dozen or so generations, the Negro apparently faces either (1) freedom and extermination, or (2) segregation and racial longevity; and just which one of these "colls" is the lesser, we cheerfully leave to Dr. Laughlin and his kinsmen—that is, of course, as we said before, if nothing intervenes. Of course, history teaches us that evil is usually counteracted at some time or other in connection with every base situation, near or distant; and within our own hearts we and our children shall look hopefully forward to some God-given solvent which will knock both of the above-named possibilities into a cooked hat, thus relieving the progeny of both Dr. Laughlin's race and of our own to some future days of peace, truth and justice. Union Baptist to Hold Services in Svynagogue The Union Baptist Church will hold services at the Synagogue at 114th street and Seventh avenue, Sunday, May 31, at 3 P. M. Rev. George H. Sims, pastor of Union Baptist Church. 202 West 63d street, will preach and Rev. J. E. Jeltz, B.S., the national gospel baritone, will sing, accompanied by Mrs. Georgia Hall. TO "BREAK THE BONDS" Patronize Only Stores Employing Negroes "ELDER" ROBERSON SENT TO PRISON PLEADS GUILTY TO VIOLATION OF MANN WHITE SLAVERY ACT; GETS LIGHT SENTENCE Made Gigantic Business of Prostitution, Assistant U. S. Attorney Tells Judge Goddard—Roberson Makes Statement in Court Chicanery, trickery, forgery, unheard of before in the history of Federal proceedings, were revealed Wednesday when Elder W. Roberson, alias the "Black Christ," pleaded guilty before Judge Henry Goddard in the United States District Court to violation of the Mann Act and was later sentenced to eighteen months in Federal Prison at Atlanta, Ga. He was indicted on three counts. All during the morning the jury was being selected by Assistant United States District Attorneys Frank Cartinella and Joseph Adler. When the court room was opened for the afternoon session, deserters of the religious cult and also staunch supporters crowded the PLEADS NOT GUILTY TO ATTEMPTED BURGLARY Fleading not guilty to a charge of attempted burglary, Leroy Robinson, 20, who did not give his address, was held without bail for a further hearing when he was brought into the Washington Heights Court Monday. Men with distinct Negroid features, having long beads resembling those worn by people of African origin, usually straightened hair, attracted a great deal of attention. Women Men with distinct features, having long beads resembling those worn by Jews and artificially straightened hair, attracted a great deal of attention. Women Atty. Cartinella, numbering about twenty, with babies in their arms, said to be the children of Roberson, were also present in court as willing witnesses against him. GIGANTIC BUSINESS OF PROSTITUTION. In stating his case to the court, the district attorney characterized Roberson as the organizer and operator of a gigantic business of prostitution. Mr. Cartinella declared that it was so skillfully developed that it had functioned perfectly in the larger cities throughout the country for over a period of sixteen years. In pleading for mercy, John B. Boddie of Chicago, counselor for the cult leader, pointed out that his client had pleaded guilty so as to save the government money. Fifty thousand dollars had already been spent in collecting evidence against the prisoner, he said. MAXIMUM SENTENCE TWENTY YEARS When a defendant is found guilty of violation of the Mann Act, the maximum sentence is twenty years in the Federal Prison. From eighteen months to five years is the usual sentence given when the defendant pleads guilty. Upon the recommendation of Mr. Boddie the court gave the minimum sentence to Roberson. The district attorneys did not object. Roberson was brought to the bar at exactly 2:24 p. m. He was wearing a steel gray suit and skull cap. With a long beard and straightened hair, he had the appearance of a Jewish rabbi. As the prosecutor recited his case, Roberson wiped his face, rocked and reeled, denoting extreme nervousness. ROBERSON MAKES STATEMENT. At the end of the counsel's plea, (Continued on Page 2.) "ELDER" W. ROBERSON and His Wife, photographed in part of his weird religious ceremony. Rev. Garner Elected Vice-Moderator of Congregational Conference Selection Follows Closely on Heels of Honor Conferred on Rev. H. H. Proctor in Brooklyn The Rev. Alexander C. Garner, pastor of Grace Congregational Church, 308 West 139th street, was unanimously elected vice-moderator of the State Conference of Congregational Churches at Walton, N. Y. Just a week ago the Rev. H. H. Proctor, of the Brooklyn Church of the Nazarene, recently was chosen moderator of the New York Association of Congregational Churches. Dr. Garner, who received his D. D. degree from Howard University, is chaplain of the 369th Infantry, N. Y. N. G., formerly the 15th Regiment, and is president of the International Preachers' Meeting of New York. He was assistant moderator of the National Council of Congregational Churches in 1913 and organized Grace Church three years ago, after having held a pastorate in Washington 24 years. Six Months' Sentence. Leroy Edwards, 145 West 144th street, was sentenced to six months in the workhouse by Magistrate John Flood in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning on a charge of pocket picking Child's Foot Crushed by Bus; Amputated Dolores Smith, two-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Molden Smith, 161 West 140th street, was run down and seriously injured by a Fifth Avenue Coach Company bus, driven by J. Smith, on the corner of Seventh avenue and 140th street, Saturday afternoon. The little girl was crossing the street in company with a larger girl when the bus approached the intersection. In vain, the driver tried to stop short. Dolores' right foot was crushed so badly it had to be amputated in Harlem Hospital. Her condition was still critical. JANITOR'S HELPER ACCUSED OF ATTACK ON GIRI Held in $20,000 Bail by Magistrate Flood for Further Hearing This Week — Mother and Teacher in Court Accused of impairing the morals of a little school girl, Joseph Skipper, janitor's helper in P. S. 157, 126th street and St. Nicholas avenue, was held in $20,000 bail by Magistrate John Flood in Washington Heights Court Monday for a further hearing. The 11-year-old girl and her mother appeared in the court to make charges against Skipper. Her school teacher also was present to testify in her behalf. Officer John Hennessey of the Children's Society recited the facts in the case as brought out by his investigation to the court. He said that the little girl was excused from class by her teacher to go to the girls' rest room when she was accosted by Skipper. On refusing to go with him, the officer explained, the man picked her up bodily and carried her to the basement of the school. Cries from the basement attracted the attention of other pupils who ran to the girl's rescue. A medical examination showed that there had been no serious injury as a result of the alleged attack. Skipper did not testify in his own behalf in the preliminary hearing. At his request, however, further hearing was adjourned until the latter part of the week. Girl Kills Chauffeur NEW ORLEANS, May 24.—After being questioned for several hours, Mildred Cooke, 18-year-old girl, confessed, police said, that she shot and killed William Simmonds, 37, taxicab chauffeur, in his home, when she believed he was going to kill her. EXTRA SUPRFME COURT UPHOLDS BAN ON SALE OF PROPERTY TO COLORED PEOPLE Sustains Agreement of Washington Owners to Sell Realty to Whites Only—Denies Contention Decision Violates Constitution WASHINGTON, May 24. The right of white residents of Washington to enter into indentures or agreements against sale or conveyance of property to persons of Negro blood was sustained today by the United States Supreme Court in decision delivered by Associate Justice Sanford. The effect of the judgment is to give legal sanction to practices established by white residents of the national capital to exclude Negroes from certain neighborhoods. Li'l Arthur, Not Jack, Praises Hot Dogs Looking remarkably robust under the circumstances. Arthur Pukiston, 13 years old, of 176 Warren street, Jersey City, surprised the police of the Grand street precinct in Jersey City Sunday night by announcing that he had subsisted for more than a week on hot dogs. Lil Artha was found wandering aimlessly about at Washington and Sussex streets, Jersey City, by Patrolman William Lewis. At the police station Artha was asked if he was hungry, and when a policeman offered to buy him a "hot dog" his diet of the last week was revealed. Artha said that his mother, whom he called Pearl Jackson, had left him at home alone about a week ago and had failed to return. His stepfather had died a short time before that, he said. Artha explained that he had left school after outlining the circumstances to his teacher, and since then had earned about 25 cents a day watching automobiles. "Hot dogs," he said, occurred to him as the most sustaining food he could afford on his income. The boy was placed in the care of the S. P. C. C. Hoboken Preacher Accused of Stabbing James Bullock, pastor of St. Oliver's Baptist Church, Hoboken, was held in $200 ball for the Grand Jury Thursday on a charge of atrocious assault preferred against him by Arthur Bronson, says the Associated Press. Bronson in the Hoboken police court testified that the preacher stabbed him several times in the head and left arm with a knife during a fight at the pastor's home last week. The wounded man said he went to Mr. Bullock's home accompanied by a woman. The preacher took a dislike to him, he said, and ordered him out of the house. An argument ensued, terminating in the slashing. Mr. Bullock admitted that there was trouble at his home, but denied cutting his visitor. In attempting to eject Bronson, he said, they fell to the floor together and Bronson was lacerated by broken glass. MAILS LETTER IN FIRE ALARM FIRE ALARM BOX Christian Yaster, whose aunt lives at 180S Amsterdam avenue, here from the Virgin Islands about a month, went to mail a letter and landed in jail. Yaster mistook a fire alarm box for a letter box. Four engine companies responded to his summons. He will know better next time. The Court dismissed for want of jurisdiction a case in which parties sought an appeal from decisions of the District courts, which had enjoined conveyance of real estate because of an indenture or agreement inhibiting such conveyance. Today's decision leaves the injunction in force and prohibits the sale of a residence in the northwest section of Washington to a woman described in the record as having Negro blood. The case attracted wide attention because of the prospect that the decision might have vital effect on racial segregation laws in operation in many States. It was docketed as that of Mrs. Irene Hand Corrigan and Mrs. Helen Curtis, otherwise known as Mrs. A. L. Curtis, appellants, vs. John J. Buckley. It was a suit in equity filed by Mr. Buckley in the District Supreme Court against Mrs. Corrigan and Mrs. Curtis to enjoy the conveyance of real estate from one of the defendants to the other. The record discloses that in 1921 several white persons, including Mr. Buckley and Mrs. Corrigan, executed an indenture under which it was agreed that no part of certain tracts in this city should ever be used or occupied by, or sold, leased or given to, any person of the Negro race. This agreement was to run for twenty-one years. In 1922 Mrs. Corrigan agreed to sell a lot with a dwelling to Mrs. Curtis. "Under the pleadings in the present case," the Supreme Court said, "the only constitutional question involved was that arising under the assertions in the motions to dismiss that the indenture or covenant which is the basis of the bill is void, in that it is contrary to and forbidden by" the Fifth, Thirteenth and Fourteenth amendments. This contention is entirely lacking in substance or color of merit. Following a discussion of these amendments the court proceeded: "It is obvious that none of these amendments prohibited private individuals from entering into contracts respecting the control and disposition of their own property; and there is no color whatever for the contention that they rendered the indenture void. And, plainly, the claim urged in this court that they were to be looked to in connection with the provisions of the revised statutes and the decisions of the courts in determining the contention earnestly pressed that the indenture is void as 'against public policy' does not involve a (Continued on Page 3.)

BOULIN DETECTIVE AGENCY 110 East 128th St. Harlem 8532 (day) Brad. 9650 (night) TWO Weird Cult Leader Sent to Prison (Continued from Page 1.) the court allowed Roberson to make a statement. He said: "Your Honor, I have done no wrong. For all the good I have done for my people (a pause)—I take this eighteen months." His voice was heavy, loud and distinct. Marshals then led him away. As he walked from the room he strutted as though he had won a moral victory. He looked casually about the room and silently expressed greetings to his worshipers. The court attendants had to force the people in the room to sit down as they watched him pass from the court. According to records in possession of the Department of Justice, Robertson has served several years in penitentiary on charges of burglary. The majority of his litterant arts, styled as his apostles, are either under bail for conspiring to violate the Mann Act or have criminal records, it was said. AIDES ALSO INDICTED. Each of them has been indicted by the Federal Grand Jury. With the exception of Elder Grossman, whose real name is Ernest Cross of Harrisburg, Fa., all of them are out on bail. Gross is in the Tombs waiting for extradition papers from Boston, where he will face a charge of grand larceny. Cartinella disclosed the fact that members of the cult all represented themselves as Jews from Palestine, Abyssinia and Jerusalem. According to him, they have duped the public out of about $800 a day. On the record he entered the names of fourteen aides to the leader as follows: Aaron Jonah Simmons, alias "A. J. Simons," of D. W. I.; Kirk White, alias "W. Kaufman," of Charlottesville, Va.; Christopher Johnson, alias "C. Stiffson"; Joseph Taylor, alias "J. Temberfield," of Washington; Edward Whittier, alias "David Lazarus," of Springfield, Mass.; Frank Stevenson, alias "F. Tannenbaum," of Texas; Charles Turner, alias "C. Rabinovitz," of South Carolina; Ernest Gross, alias "L. Grossman" of Harrisburg, Pa.; Alexander Walker, alias "Alexander Walderman," of South Carolina; Charles Harris, alias "C. E. Goldberg" of Virginia; Samuel Scales, alias "Samuel Rubinstein," of North Carolina; Newman Euhanks, alias "B. Newman," of Virginia; Mary Short, alias "Mrs. M. Shortfelder." Julius Streeter, former Pullman porter, was aspiring to become an elder, according to evidence secured by the government, Edgar D. Roberts, former newspaper man, acted as secretary to the wife of Roberson, it was alleged. INVESTIGATION LASTED FOUR YEARS. Numerous complaints made to the Department of Justice caused Special Agent James Amos, the man who put the handcuffs on Marcus Garvey, to be assigned to make an investigation of Roberson's business nearly four years ago. Since that time other agents, including James Haas, Theodore and McFeeters, have secured almost a room full of evidence on the mechanism of the organization, according to the district attorney's office. One agent secured a position as Roberson's secretary two years ago and travelled about with him from one city to another. Another worked in a grocery operated by the organization at 2367 Seventh avenue for the same period of time and went through all of the weld ceremonies performed by Roberson in order to fool his followers. Two large baskets of photographs showing the exercises were on hand at the calling of the trinal. ROBERSON OWNS MANSION. In explaining how Roberson and his right hand man panhandled the public, Mr. Cartinela said that they pretended that they were running a Hebrew Settlement Home for Negro children. Stationery and subscription blanks to this effect made up some of the evidence. The exact amount of the leader's fortune could not be ascertained, he said.

J., the district attorney stated. He said that it was the place where young girls were sent to become mothers of ltoberson's children. There was a group of young girls organized into what the cult leader called the "Yirgin Class," and was taught to believe that they were to only bear children for him and that some day he was going to create a beautiful vineyard for them. BABIES ARE NOBODIES. These young girls, according to evidence gathered by the government, were never attended by a physician, trained nurse or midwife at the birth of their children. Babies numbering about twenty have no birth record or certificate. So far as the law is concerned, they are nobodies. What caused cold hearts to soften was the fact that several mothers saw their grown up daughters for the first time since birth in the district attorney's office. They had been kept separated by the cult leader, it was claimed. About a half dozen pregnant girls ranging upward from fourteen years were in court as witnesses. Women with babies said to be those of Roberson were sitting side by side with their elder daughters, also carrying babies said to be those of the same man. CULT ORGANIZED IN 1908. Roberson, Mr. Cartinella declared, has made an organized business of prostitution since 1908. His chief aide has been a woman, he stated, who goes under the name of Fannie Roberson. Mrs. Roberson is now in Chicago fighting efforts of the government to bring her back to New York to face trial, he stated. A number of the children who were victims of Roberson are in the custody of the Children's Society. The majority of the women were from Philadelphia and New Jersey. Grave doubt was expressed that the present imprisonment of the leader of the cult will have any marked effect on breaking it up. Four Now to Die for Murder With-the-announcement-Friday of a verdict against Charles Goldson, West Indian sailor, Assistant District Attorney James E. McDonald established a record of having caused the conviction of four men for murder in the first degree within less than seven weeks for the killing of one person. Goldson, who is 22, and gave his address as 112 DeKalb avenue, Brooklyn, was one of four men charged with having broken into the establishment of Marcus & Co., 575 Eighth avenue, early Feb. 7. It was charged that on finding William P. Young, 63-year-old white watchman, sleep in a chair on the premises, one of the men shattered Young's skull with a piece of lead pipe. Under the law all shared responsibility for the crime. The others convicted and wa- ting execution are George "Bud" Williams, 26. 112 DeKalb avenue, Brooklyn: Ben Pradley, 22. 235 West 40th street, and Edgar Humes, 22. 227 West 130th street. Goldson was convicted before Judge Nott of General Sessions. He will be sentenced Friday. CHARGED WITH THEFT OF $51.26 FROM MAN Richard Brown, 29. 145 West 145th street, was held in $2,000 ball for the Grand Jury when an- nounced Friday before Magistrate Rosenbluth, in Harlem Court, charged with the theft of $51.26 from Samuel Richards, white, 399 Test 90th street.

Handy made it famous with his blues . . . Madame Hightower immortalizes it with her incomparable beauty preparations. Written especially for this paper by RAMSAY RAY Feature Writer (I. R. N. S.) A previous installment of this story related many incidents of the early life of Madame Mamie Hightower. It painted a vivid picture of her childhood, her maidenhood with its attendant social gaieties. It gave a keen insight into her character and revealed those admirable attributes that have been admired the world over. How Madame transformed the ugly woman into a kind and nantype of young womanhood and made her the envied of her social set is a tale of unselfish friendship that will linger long with those who read it. Selma was the inspiration that She Made It for Selma, Her Girlhood Chum The last installment told you how Madame Hightower first came to make her ointment for her friend Selma. Selma washer chum whose beauty was marred by an unsightly complexion. Madame Hightower's sympathetic nature and love for her chum caused her to create her first product that resulted in present famous line of Golden Brown Beauty preparations. gave our Group that which was eventually to be known as Madame Mamie Hightower's Golden Brown Beauty Ointment. The wonders that Mamie's "mixture" had worked with Selma's complexion was soon known to all who composed their friendly group and ere long much influence was brought to bear upon Mamie to try her hand in business. Several of the father's friends earnestly besought Mamie to open capitalize on her unrivaled ability. But Mamie turned a deaf ear to all such entreaties, at least for the present. However, she continued her tireless studies in chemistry and was gradually developing a knowledge that was to serve her in good stead through the years. Mamie Chooses Her Life Partner But such a talented and demure miss as Mamie could not hope to go far through the social realm without completely captivating the heart of some ardent swain and it was only fitting that after a season of unprecedented popu- When Handy Returned to Memphis! A mammoth gathering of both races greeted Handy's return to his old home town. The popular old Lyric Theatre on Madison Ave. was packed to capacity as the "King of Jazz" and his organization of talented musicians broke forth into the familiar strains of the "Memphis Blues," one of Handy's best loved compositions. Loud applause greeted this and all subsequent numbers and the Memphis that first knew Handy as a struggling young cornetist was only too glad to pay homage to its native son who had won the praise of the Great White Way. Irritity that Mamie, quite bashfully, was led to the alter by the highly esteemed and industrious Zack Hightower. The wedding was quite an event because the popularity of the principals was widespread. Handsome gifts were showered upon the happy couple because many were the grateful heartthat harbored only the kindest of thoughts for Mamie and her husband.

And who will be the next to come from this famous "street of celebrities." -R. R. Wedded Bliss for the Hightowers It is not the purpose of the writer to create extensive cataloges of the happiness of Mamie and her husband. It is not fitting that I paint a halo about their heads and characterize their domestic life as being "one long uninterrupted dream of bliss and contentment." At best they were human. They may have had little petty quarrels. Most couples do. But I am sincerely truthful when I say that both Mamie and her adoring husband were exceedingly fortunate in that they thoroughly understood one another and were sympathetic with their respective hopes and ideals. As Madame Hightower told me herself and certainly she is the one to judge: "Zack has always been a faithful, loving husband. He has been kind and considerate. He has helped me in my work. I am exceedingly grateful that fortune chose such a man for me." What greater tribute need come from lips. What a volume these few words speak. Any husband may be justly proud of such words prompted by the affection of a loving wife. Mamie was truly "queen of all she surveyed." A happy home . . . good husband . . . family . . . friends . . . all those things that go to make life worth living . . . Mamie was rich indeed. And with it all there was an inexplicable something lurking within the depths of Mamie's great heart. It seemed to her that she heard some faraway voice calling. The Still Small Voice That Called to Mamie One evening as the happy couple sat quietly together Mamie mentioned the matter to Zack and he seriously listened to her as she endeavored to explain the mysterious urge. After considerable thought upon the subject Zack conceived the idea that the faraway voice that Mamie seemed to hear was the voice of Our Group calling her to her rightful position and place. The aftermath of this conversation was that Zack persuaded Mamie that she must continue her developments in chemistry and that she must spread the benefits of her beauty blessings over a large field. Zack's ardor in the matter and his sincerity of purpose impressed Mamie to a marked degree and 'twas well long after midnight when Mamie finally made her decision to broaden the scope of her activities and devote considerable time to the creation of various beauty aids that would fill an urgent need of Our Group. ISaw These Remarkable Letters and Read Them: I had the pleasure of reading over some of countless testimonial letters that a grateful people have sent to Madame Hightower. In her own office and with her own hands she went over letter after letter endorsing and praising her for her work. I caught sight of a tear now and then as she read some of the affectionate expressions. There were letters from famous stars of stage and screen, from society matrons, from social belles, from working girls, from doctors, lawyers, in fact men and women in all walks of life . . . letters that rang true with sincerity . . . letters that this wonderful woman cherishes far more than fame and riches. Do You Know Where "Blues" Originated? There are different versions as to where the blues really originated. It has been said that the Barbary Coast in Frisco was the scene of their inception. But those who know best are unanimous in their opinion that the "blues" first saw the light of day on "Beale St." and that their "daddy" was the one and only W. C. Handy. The First Location on Beale Street From that night's discussion was born the first business venture of Madame Mamie Hightower. Once the decision was made Mamie's enthusiasm knew no bounds. The very next day found I Saw These Letters and I had the pleasure of reading o letters that a grateful people have her own office and with her own letter endorsing and praising her tear now and then as she read son There were letters from famous society matrons, from social b doctors, lawyers, in fact men and letters that rang true with sincer woman cherishes far more than her down on Beale Ave. seeking a location for her beauty parlor. After undergoing the various and sundry disappointments relative to getting a new business started Mamie finally opened her hospitable doors to her Group. It was an auspicious opening. Mounds of flowers were piled high. Crowds of Mamie's friends elamored to congratulate her and wish her well. And through it all, standing smiling and serenely happy by the side of his wife, was Zack, proudly sharing with her the joys of Street...f this momentous occasion. "Mamie Hightower's Beauty Salon" was soon the most popular spot on Beale Street. Success Attends the First Venture Young maidens and elderly matrons thronged the little shop in eager search of the rejuvenating beauty treatments. The women were making progress of willing workers was making progress. Madame Mame Nightier Golden Brown HAIR DRESSING FROM THE LABORATORY OF GOLDEN BROWN CHEMICAL CO. MEMPHIS, TENN.

Madame Hightower's Great Discovery This hair dressing was the result of a considerable number of her patrons requesting such a preparation. Harsh, unruly, kinky hair caused considerable vexation to many and Mamie with ever a consideration for the welfare of her Group, excelled even her fondest dreams, by perfecting a Hair Dressing that made possible anewer of hair loveliness. This hair dressing was one of the foundation stones upon which a thriving business was built. Hundreds came from miles around to share in this great blessing.

Kaplan, Optometrist, S11 Lenox Avenue. student body, which is composed of about 95 per cent of Negroes, is planning to strike before the close of the school. The situation is becoming more and more tense as it is viewed by those acquainted with the facts. College fraternities, both graduate and undergraduate chapters, met at the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity House, 203 West 138th street, Friday night and mapped out a course to bring about the principal's removal. It has already been stated by a reliable informant that Miss Kormann has expressed regret in making statements relative to the mental ability of Negro children. It is further claimed that she has openly admitted that she did not know that there were Negroes of higher standing than the bulk of parents she came in contact with at the school. A large number of the students attending the school are from the most prominent homes in the community. One father, a newspaperman, made public an unpleasant experience he had with the school principal. He said that his daughter on being transferred from a grammar school to the junior high school was put in an industrial class, where most Negro children are put when there is no protest, it is said. A number of instances where Negro children were believed to have been discriminated against have been reported during the week. The actual fight to have Miss Kornmann ousted from the school had its incentive following her refusal to allow a three-minute speaker representing the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity to speak before the school assembly during their "Go-to-High-School—Go-to-College" campaign. It is said that she believes that higher education should be discouraged among Negroes. Her experience as a result of the "I. Q. T." test, an intelligence examination, has been that Negro children are not susceptible to higher training. Miss Kornmann is quoted as having said. Criticism has also been directed at a pamphlet sent out by the principal to the parents of the pupils because, it is claimed, the wording is such as to discourage general education and magnifies industrial training. A committee of citizens are to meet with the principal tomorrow afternoon to get a clearer understanding of the situation and the personal attitude of the principal. FOUR PAY FINES FOR DISORDERLY CONDUCT Three men were fined $10 each and another $25 when they were arraigned before Magistrate Glatzmayer in West Farms Court Friday on charges of disorderly conduct.

Richard Reese Whittemore was found guilty of first degree murder in connection with the slaying on February 20, 1925, of Robert H. Holtman, a keeper To celebrate the opening of the 1926 picnic season we offer at specially reduced prices an assortment of fancy groceries appropriate for "that over the week-end outing."

He volunteered nothing, but haltingly followed the questioning of State's Attorney Herbert O'Connor and stumbled forth a story that caused Whittimore to flush and pale alternately. The witness swore that he saw the defendant strike down the 65-year-old keeper while the latter had his back turned to him and had his left hand on a key in the lock of a door. After striking down Holtman, said Bowie, Whittimore took the keeper's pistol from his hip pocket, covered him (the witness) and then took the guard's wallet and keys. The defendant then, according to the witness, forced him at the pistol point to go with him while he unlocked a door leading to the street and escaped. The witness said he was left standing on the steps of the penitentiary with freedom stretching before him. But instead he turned back and raised an alarm and then helped to carry the stricken keeper to the operating room of the hospital where he died later. "Why did you do that?" demanded Edgar Allen Poe, counsel for Whittemore, in cross-examination. "Old man (Holtman) always treated me all right, sir, and that's what I went back for—to help him." This artless reply seemed a deadly counter to one of the main parts of Whittemore's anticipated defense. Felonious Assault Charged Against Man. On a charge of felonious assault, Webb Kennedy, address unknown, was held for further hearing when he was arraigned in the Washington Heights Court Monday on a short affidavit before Magistrate John Flood. The complainant gave his name as William Winston, 196 West 135th street. Charge Janitor Withheld Rent Tenant Testifies She Gave Him $10 Deposit Falling to turn over to the landlord rents that he collected from tenants, it was charged, James Miller, janitor, of 446-448 West 135th street, was held in $500 ball for Special Sessions by Magistrate John Flood in the Heights Court Monday. Mrs. Mary Foley, a tenant in the apartment building, testified that She gave the janitor $10 as a deposit on an apartment and later gave him $32 as a balance of the rent due for the month of May. She said that later she was asked by the landlord to make the payment. Thereupon she produced a receipt issued by Miller. As Mrs. Foley took the stand to testify against Miller, the janitor gave her a note written on a dingy piece of paper in which he informed her that he would make good the money if she would withdraw the complaint. The note was offered in evidence against the defendant. He did not take the stand in his own behalf. Brides & Grooms Note These Furniture Values! Carol Moore, address unknown, was dismissed by Magistrate John Flood in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning on a charge of being a fugitive from justice. According to communications from the Metropolitan Police Department of Washington, D. C., last week that the defendant escaped from prison in Virginia, Moore was arrested by Detective Scott of the 135th street station and held without ball. Following the receipt of a telegram from the Washington Police authorities Monday, it was learned that Moore was not wanted on the charge. PICKPOCKET SUSPECT HAD GUN, COP SAYS While on his way to church Monday morning, Patrolman Joseph Brown of the 135th street station said that he observed a man attempting to pick the pocket of a drunken man on the corner of 132nd street and Lenox avenue. On searching the man the officer said he found a .33 calibre revolver in the prisoner's hip pocket. When the prisoner was arraigned in the Washington Heights Court later during the morning he was held without ball for the Special Sessions. He gave his name as David Simmons, 302 West 146th street. 14 Now Held for Labelle Lynching LABELLE, Fla., May 24.—Six more white men, making a total of 14, were arrested here last week. charged with first degree murder following the death of Henry Patterson, who was lynched by a mob last Tuesday. Among the prisoners were: Hurd L. Reeves, tax assessor of Hendry County, and Radford Edwards, town marshal of Labelle. The prisoners, guarded by a detachment of 116th field artillery, were taken to Arcadia. They were held without ball.

SURPRISE 4 BURGLARS IN SUNDAY ROBBERY Four robbers, said to be colored, entered two lofts on the seventh floor at 356 West 36th street Sunday morning but were surprised at their work and left behind them in their flight $20,000 worth of dresses and material. Charles Grushaw, of 1835 West 13th street, Coney Island, manager of the Faust Dress Company, surprised the four men when he investigated a light in an empty office adjoining that of the dress company. The men ran down the stairs. The burglars had cut a hole from the hall to the Faust establishment and from there had cut a similar hole to the Emerald Dress Company offices. THREE Court Upholds Property Ban Court Upholds Property Ban (Continued from Page 1.) constitutional question within the meaning of the code provision." constitutional question within the meaning of the code provision." It is contended by the defendant, Mrs. Curtis, that Sections 1977-9 of the revised statutes forbade such an indenture. The Supreme Court held that these statutes "do not in any manner prohibit or invalidate contracts entered into by private individuals in respect to the control and disposition of their own property." "We therefore conclude," said the court, "that neither the constitutional nor statutory question relied upon as grounds for the appeal to this court have any substantial quality or color of merit." The court also denied the contention of the defendants that the decrees of the courts below in themselves deprived the defendants of their liberty and property without due process of law. "The defendants were given a full hearing in both courts," said the decision. "They were not denied any constitutional or statutory right, and there is no semblance of ground for any contention that the decrees were so plainly arbitrary and contrary to law as to be acts of more apoliation." Justice Sanford concluded the opinion by dismissing the case for want of jurisdiction. FOUR Pern Colored Giants Go Down Before the Crack Springfield Team Coach of Thomas Jeffer- son High Nine Drafted for Duty and Made Good Springfleld won two slugfests from the Pennsylvania Colored Giants on Sunday afternoon at Recreation Park, Woodside, king the first gume by a score of 18 to 17 and the second by 9 to 3. Both teams used two pitchers and every one of them was hit hard, ‘The Giants accounted for 17 sufeties at the expense of Dutch Carlson and Att Robertson, while Springfield raced out 22 safe blows. Many of the hits were carried for extra bases by a strong wind which blew toward the outfield. Springfield opened with a five-run lead {n the first game, the result of poor infield play by the visitors. ‘Two double steals were attempted in this frame and on both o¢- casions Tuns were scored., The first was made with Alexander on third and Burman on first, and both runners were safe. On the second try after O'Connell's single had sent Burman to third, Burman and O'Connell were run down be- tween first and second, Tuck Delaney, who coaches the ‘Tkomas Jefferson High School nine, and who plays tho outfield for Springfield, was drafted for. mound duty in the second gnme.

Stage Set for Big Decoration Day Dance of Renaissance Five --- Henderson to Lead His Roseland Orchestra During the Entire Evening at Manhattan Casino THE stage is all set and everything complete for the big carnival and dance of the Renaissance Five at Manhattan Casino on next Monday night, May 31. No stone has been left unturned to make this the real gala affair of the club since its start some time ago, and we understand scores will journey from New Jersey and Long Island to join with the popular boys in making the night one long to be remembered. Many visitors in the city from points west have also signified their intention of being present at the big affair. Fletcher Henderson will, for the first time in a mighty long whilo, personally lead his Roseland Orchestra from early evening until his boys play "Home, Sweet Home." Renaissance affairs have made such an impression on the general gubilo it is safe to predict that one of the largest and most representative gatherings will be on hand to make it the end of a perfect holiday. The management of the Manhattan Casino are working in conjunction with the Renaissance Five in giving that touch to the popular dance hall which will remind those present of an auspicious occasion while they are tripping the light fantastic to popular tunes. All in all it will be a night wherein old friendships and acquaintances will be renewed, as the majority of the clubs will send large quotas to give Manager "Bob" Douglas the glad hand for the wonderful season which he brought to a successful close about a month ago. afayette Theatre Revues Continue to Draw Big A long line of revues have been fired patrons of the Lafyette natre almost from the first day manager Frank Schiffman took large of the house.

Morningside 4319 pointing out that Mr. Schiffman is making the success which we predicted when he first took charge of the Lafayette. This week the Club Alabama' Revue opened to a sensational start, when the Fire Department issued orders to stop the sale of tickets on Monday night, when standing room, was at a premium shortly after the doors were thrown open. This revue boasts an aggregation of singers, dancers, comedians and musicians that will, without doubt, keep the house jammed all week. Next week Barrington Carter will bring to the Lafayette his latest offering along revue lines, entitled the Rainbow Revue, and we expect to see the usual big opening on Monday night. Gertrude Saunders will head this bunch and, as Miss Saunders has quite a following here, the general manager of the Brecher interests can very well afford to retain the smile which illuminated his expressive countenance when even he found it difficult to get into the Lafayette Monday evening. Savoy Ballroom Now Has School of Courtesy for Its Employees In line with its policy to give New York one of the world's finest ballrooms in every respect, the management of the Savoy Ballroom, 140th street and Lenox avenue, has inaugurated a "School of Courtesy" at which each employee must attend twice each week. The purpose of this school is to teach those members of the Savoy staff who come in actual contact with its patrons the value of courtesy and intelligent means for handling the public so that patrons may be certain that here, at least, they will find themselves in an environment of refinement as well as beauty second to none. In an institution as large as the Savoy it is almost impossible for the management to watch each employee individually to see that each one is courteous and intent only on helping the patrons to get their full shore of the entertainment offered. Therefore, a merit system has been inaugurated which gives members of the organization an opportunity to prove themselves in an effort to secure part of the large rewards for courtesy and intelligence to be distributed each month. This is certainly a new departure for any amusement project in this section and should work wonders for the Savoy and the public alike. New York Musicians in Second Annual Billiard Tournament The Second Annual Handicap Tournament among the musicians of New York City will begin Tuesday, June 1, at 3 P. M., at the Lafayette Billiard Emporium, corner 132nd street and 7th avenue. Many new entries are noted in his year's contest. Clarence Jones, winner of last year's tournament, will have to step to retain his laurels. Billie Elmore is the runner up from scratch. The handicappers, Wilson Grey, Peters and Willis, are doing close figuring in their effort to make this year's game just as doubtful as to winner as last year's, when first and second places were in doubt up to the finish and the final results might have been different if Billie Elmore had not been called away to fill his contract with Al Jolson's show. Owing to the popularity of the entries and the games being in the afternoon, a large and interesting gallery is expected. As billiard players, they are not world benters, but as sociable good fellows and musicians they are near perfect. Entries up-to-date are Ginger, W. A. Tyler, Chas, C. Wilson, J. Rosmond Johnson, Eddie Wise, Joe Breon, Mitchell Lewis, Joe Grey, Billie Elmore, Taylor Gordon, Engene Jones, Frederick Peters, Joseph Scott, Stanley Peters, Clarence Jones, Walter Thompson, B. S.

Disaster at the Alhambra Theatre Last Week Down at the Alhambra Theatre last week disaster followed the efforts of those attempting to present the revue headed by Rector and Cooper, with Bill (Bojangles) Robinson as an added attraction. While the house gave promise on Monday night, judging from the optimistic statements of those in charge of the place, it fell down miserably during the week. On Saturday night the people felt nervous about getting their money; but hopes went over for securing what they had coming to them when promises of a settlement were made for Sunday night. But Sunday night came and there was no settlement and, we understand, they were told to report on Monday afternoon to get their pay. Whether they did or not we do not know at this time; but we do know that this paper failed to receive moneys due from those presenting the show (the white folks, of course) for advertisements carried. We do not believe in hastily downing performers when they have made an honest attempt to work at their trade and failed. While the wiseacres are now showing the world wherein it was foolhardy to put a show into the Alhambra at this time, it must be remembered that those of us seeking to work at the trade which we know best will entertain hopes even in the face of circumstances which will eventually spell disaster. ROGERS AND ROBERTS READY FOR BIG SHOW Alex Rogers and Luceyth Roberts are busy these days completing arrangements for the big show which they will open in the near future. Both these gentlemen had been at it all last Winter and signs point to another success.

New Lincoln Offers Another Fine Screen Drama Picture-goers who read Francis Brett Young's sensational best seller, "Sea Horsees," and are looking forward to seeing Allan Dwan's screen version of it at the Lincoln Theatre next Thursday may be sure that the best available talent was assembled to portray the characters which the author's imaginative genius developed. Florence Vidor is the lone woman in the picture—the lovely, charming girl-wife whose search for her missing husband takes her to an out-of-the-way port on the east coast of Africa and plunges her into a stirring series of adventures. Jack Holt has the virile role of the captain of the freighter—a part that gives him an opportunity to fight and love in his characteristically vigorous style. George Bancroft, who scored a distinct personal triumph as the smiling killer in "The Pony Express," is ideally cast as the semi-brutal second mate. William Powell, noted screen heavy, impersonates the sinister character of the degenerate beachcomber husband, from whose clutches Miss Vidor is saved. 123 ST RUSSIAN TURKISH EST. 123 SEP. 1925 VATIONS, 'PHONE MORNING ES, SI ING, INVIGORAT A GOOD YS SLEEP $1 BATHS BATHS n-Turkish Baths for SURDAY, MAY 2 through the courage of Holt and the sacrifice of Bancroft.

Brown Stops Ted Silva Al Brown of Harlem polished off Teddy Silva of California in what was supposed to be the opening ten-rounder. It took Al two rounds. A right to the chin dropped Teddy for nine at the close of the first session and a right hand chop to the chin delivered by Al as he swept by in a sort of side-step movement accounted for the knockout. Teddy took ten and could have taken ten more. He was out. And we mean absolutely.

PERRY, counsel for buyers of the so-called "paper houses" in Flushing Heights, said last week he would present whatever evidence he has to the Grand Jury of Queens County and would ask that steps be taken to punish those responsible for the alleged misrepresentations in the buildings. Mr. Perry had a two-hour conference in Flushing Court with Charles P. Sullivan, an assistant district attorney of Queens. He placed the facts in his possession before the prosecutor, including a small piece of "paper roofing" used in construction of the houses. One of his clients. William J. Ritchie, married, with four children, said he bought his house in the belief it had been constructed according to plans and specifications. After living in the house a short while, he said, he found the roof and walls were made of paper. Perry produced a photograph showing, he said, where the knob of a front door plunged through the paper side of the house after the door had been opened. Mr. Sullivan presented the evidence to Magistrate Giorgio in Flushing Court. Perry said he believed the Grand Jury would return indictments. Mr. Sullivan and Magistrate Giorgio agreed the matter should be taken before the Grand Jury and no action was taken in Magistrates' Court. Braxton Found Guilty in Crossing Death John Braxton, 24, of 213 West 142nd street, Manhattan, and Thomas Linneman, 44, of 62 Hempstead street, Cypress Hills, the signalman and gateman, respectively, of the 57th street crossing of the Long Island Railroad at Woodhaven, were arraigned in the Jamaica Court on Thursday on a charge of homicide, before Magistrate Wlenner, growing out of the death of Louis Zisklin, who was killed when a motor truck in which he was riding on May 1 was struck by a train at that crossing. It is alleged by witnesses that the signal was given, but that the gates were not lowered in time. Linneman was found not guilty and was dismissed. Braxton, the gateman, was found guilty and ordered held in $10,000 bail for the Grand Jury.

Church has there been more exilarating and inspiring sessions than those of this year. The conference convened at S John's A. M. E. Church, Howard avenue, Brooklyn, Rev. Cummings, pastor. The sessions opened on Wednesday, May 19, with reports from the church and the little church and cheered as the various churches reported progress, it showed that the spirit of African Methodism was everything but dead, even in Brooklyn. At the evening session Dr. W. S. Carpenter, pastor at Buffalo, N. Y., preached the annual sermon to the ministers. The conference continued its sessions. Representatives of the Allen Christian Endeavor Societies throughout the state arranged an interesting program for the afternoon. Dr. S. S. Morris, general secretary, was present and addressed the conference. Education secretary, B. S. Bresley, conference Thursday, Dr. S. M. Baxter, Syedes, and Dean Ge. F.

New York City, rendered the music. Friday was Missionary Day. The critical illness of the president, Mrs. Ophelia Lawlen, cast a pall over the conference. Mrs. Alesen Curtis, wife of the former American Minister to L.伯利亚, was a visitor. She spoke at both morning and afternoon sessions of the conference branch and so impressive and touching was her appeal that the entire body pledged her its support. Sunday morning at nine-thirty the church was filled. Busea from Freeport, Huntington and cars from the other state brought people to witness the conference closing. Bishop Heard preached the sermon. "Quit you like men," said Bishop Heard, quoting from his text. "I say that because it is so easy to be unmanly. To be manly one must have courage, fortitude, faith and courage. I do not mean by that you must be ready to fight because often the greatest courage is manifested when a man refrains from retaliation. I see the courage is popular to go the wrong and the crowd is going that way." "Fortitude," said Bishop Heard, "is needed by the minister of today as much as it was needed by Paul, Luther, Calvin, Ridley, Wesley, Allen and others. Not only courage to live but fortitude to hold on even in death." "Faith is also indispensable to the preacher, especially now when mentalists extend that so much of their doctrine is untrue," concluded the Bishop. The ordination of elders and deacons took place immediately after the sermon.

A list of special features has been prepared, not the least of which is the addition of Kenneth Roane's Musical Spades, a sensational orchestra direct from New Orleans and brought here especially for the occasion. This makes three orchestras which will provide three distinctly different, yet delightful styles of syncopation for all lovers of good dance music. The boast of the Savoy Ballroom management now is that their two regular orchestras, "The Charleston Bearcats" and Fess Williams and his Royal Flush Orchestra, are beyond doubt among the kings of syncopation in this country. This has been attested by the tremendous popularity they now enjoy in this community, having played to thousands of people during their short regime at the Savoy. On Decoration Day the Savoy will open its new wardrobe room which now occupies an entire floor by itself, so that the accommodation of the patrons will be as convenient and spacious as it is possible to be, thus providing ample room for the hundreds of its followers who have been unable many times to enter owing to the inability of the place to cope with the crowds. There will be no advance in prices for Decoration Day; as a matter of fact, the policy of this institution has been always to give you the very finest of entertainment, the choicest music, the cleverest features at a price that is exceedingly reasonable—so reasonable that folks wonder sometimes how they can do it. The same principle that has made Woolworth stores the success that they are, despite the fact that the cost of living has added 500 per cent in the last year, applies to the Savoy, the cement having proved conclusively that it is unnecessary to charge exorbitant prices in order to provide the high quality of entertainment that has been the rule here. That's why this nationally famous ballroom has counted among its patrons people who have come from as far west as Kansas City to see it. Carter and DeKuh to Meet at Ebbets Field Promoter Humbert J. Fugazy announced last week the opening ten rounder that completes his card for the Holy Family Hospital bene-fit boxing show that he will stage Bell & Delany, Inc. 202 WEST 135th ST. Near 7th Ave. at Ebbets Field on the night of June 3. Arthur DeKuh, sensational Italian heavyweight, will be pitted against Carl Carter, the Cuban giant of Harlem, in the ten that will go on before the Jack Delaney-Tommy Burns ten spot which will be the semi-final to the Tod Morgan-Kid Sullivan world's junior lightweight title test. The DeKuh-Carter bout has been one of the prizes promoters of out- NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 26, 1926 door shows have been angling for ever since the big Italian started his remarkable winning streak of knockout victories. DeKuh and Carter make a "natural" attraction of the first water. DeKuh has come up so rapidly that only opposition of the Carter order stands between him and the contendership ranks. Sheriff Frank J. Taylor of Kings County, who is chairman of the ex- executive committee in charge of the bouts, announced that the first day's sale of pasteboards had exceeded even his highest expectations. That the bouts will be a sellout is almost a foregone conclusion judging by the first day's sales alone. The various committees working under Sheriff Taylor are to start a ticket selling drive that will leave no doubt as to the show Lincoln Giants Win Double Header From the Newark Stars The Newark Stars, organized this season by Andy Harris, made their first appearance in a series of league games at the Catholic Protectory Oval Sunday afternoon, May 23, and were defeated in two games by the Lincoln Giants. They barely escaped being shut out in the first game. They were held scoreless until the ninth inning by Rube Chambers, the Lincoln's star lefthander. The score of the game was 5-3. Sol White, the veteran player who is coaching for the Newark team, was given an ovation by the players and fans alike. The second game was featured by the batting of "Highpocket" Hudspeth. Hudspeth hit a home run in each game and also made a two-bagger in the second. George Scales and Seay also hit home runs in the final game. Manager Lloyd has booked four leading white clubs for the holiday series on Sunday and Monday. Decoration Day. Sunday the Lin- eck Giants will play New Brunswick and Pottstown, Pa., nines and on Monday they will face Portchester and the Philadelphia Professionals. The Eastern League games will continue, beginning June 6, with the Earcharach Giants, Hilldale, Harrisburg Giants and Newark Stars hooked for return games during the month.

Battle this week than the hundreds of messages and letters that have poured into his home at 255 West 138th street. Working at odd pobs and as red cap In the Grand Central Terminal, Battle stuled "How to Become a Policeman" at night. It may be recalled that during the administration of the late Mayor Gaynor a delegation of citizens met at the City Hall asking for his appointment to the police force after being passed up by the then Commissioner of Police. Fifteen years ago when Commissioner of Police Rhnelander Walde appointed 45 new men to the force Battle was included. Up to several years ago the policeman has been attached to stations in Harlem. During a general shake-up all over the city by Commissioner Enright he was transferred to another community. With his advancement Sergeant Battle has been sent back to the 133th street station. He was born Jan. 16, 1583, at Newbern, N. C. NOTICE On Sunday, May 16, about 9 P. M., two girls were run down by a taxicab at 139th street and Seventh avenue.

Local Howard Alumni to Consider Presidency Howard University Alumni of New York City have arranged for a final meeting for the year to take place at a dinner in the Emma Ransom Dining Room of the W. Y. C. A. on Saturday evening, May 29, 1926, at 8:30 p. m. The alumni have been advised by the trustees that a choice of the president by the alumni would be given special consideration. The uncertainty as to the next president has forced the New York group to action as to the choice of the president. At the dinner given, the representative to the general alumni meeting in June will be selected, as well as the choice for president for Howard decided upon. Other matters of vital importance to the welfare of Howard will be discussed. The fee is $1.25 and all Howardites are expected to communicate with George E.

Lewis, Former New York Resident, Came to America 81 Years Ago CAMBRIDGE, Mass.; May 24.—Henry Charles Lewis, of 33 Parker street, resident of this city, who returned four years ago after living several years in New York City, died late Friday night in his 85th year and was buried this afternoon from Christ Protestant Episcopal Church. Mr. Lewis was born in Jamaica, British West Indies, and came to Bath, Me., at the age of seven years. Later he moved to Portland, Me., where he grew to manhood and in 1860 married Jane James, of Port La Tour, Nova Scotia. She died in 1906. Six children, all girls, were born of this union, three of whom survive. They are Miss Eva Lewis, an employee of the State House in Boston; Mrs. Raydell Carter, of Boston, and Mrs. Estelle Caution, superintendent of the Katy Ferguson Home, in New York. In 1911, Mr. Lewis married Mrs. Katharine Bradford, mother of Charles Bradford, in New York City, and made his home there for several years. His widow survives. The deceased also leaves three grandchildren: Mrs. Gladys Kelley, wife of the editor of The Amsterdam News; Lewis Butler Caution, a Government employee in Boston; Mrs. Rose Burgs of Washington, Pa., and two great grandchildren: William Burgs and Sinah Estelle Kelley. For many years the deceased was a ship cook during which time he traveled several times around the world. At one time he had a profitable moving business here. Mrs. Caution and Mrs. Kelley came to Boston Sunday to attend the funeral. New Essex "6" Coach $300 DOWN 1 Year to Pay Balance 1073 E. TREMONT AVE. West Farms Station OPEN EVENINGS AND SUNDAYS FORDHAM 5121 R. E. Mizelle Named Adjutant R. E. Mizelle Named Adjutant Attorney Ralph Eugene Mizelle, with offices at 200 Broadway, has been appointed as first lieutenant and adjutant of the first battalion in the 369th Infantry, according to an order made public by General Franklin Ward, Adjutant of the New York National Guard, last week. The appointment of Counselor Mizelle is said to be a further indication of a effort being made by Colonel William Taylor, commander of the infantry, to raise the standard of the regiment. Mr. Mizelle served as second lieutenant during the World War. Mr. Mizelle is a graduate of the Fordham Law School. He was attending the University of Illinois when the country declared war on Germany. Prior to this time, he graduated from the A. and M. College in Florida. After the war, Mr. Mizelle taught school for several years in North and South Carolina. Still more recently he was a member of the Lafayette Players and to add to his varied experience he managed a Canadian farm for two years. Attorney Mizelle is president of the local chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity and a member of the Mystic Shriners of Winnipeg, Canada. Colonel Taylor also promoted First Lieutenant DeForest D. Johnson to the grade of captain, and Second Lieutenant Ira Aldridge to that of first lieutenant. Annual memorial services were held by the 369th Infantry, Col. Wm. A. Taylor, Commander, Sunday, at Mount Olive Baptist Church, Rev. W. P. Hayes, D.D. pastor. Captain Alexander C. Garner, chaplain, was master of ceremonies. The address was made by Col.

Eckles, tenor, gave a joint recital at Town Hall Friday evening, May 21. In commenting on the recital, the New York Times said in part: Mr. Eckles was entirely in his element in the spirituals. In these he displayed the use of that indescribable natural plano, so beautiful to hear and so difficult to imitate. There were sweetness and pathos in the spirituals sung by Mrs Smith-Eckles. "Every Time I feel the Spirit" had to be repeated to please the audience. The radio audience will have the opportunity of listening to the Stadium Concerts of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, twice weekly during the coming Summer, says Charles B.

Sara Washington While gliding along life's merry way and keeping pace with the times, styles and fashions, there are other things of vast importance to be considered than just your personal appearance. How about your breath? Have you ever considered that it may be offensive? You may have a wonderful form, pretty teeth, flashing eyes, a beautiful complexion and be a strikingly attractive dresser, but a disagreeable body odor or bad breath will damagingly mar these attractions. In referring to these offenders, you must remember that such conditions are natural. Anyone may have a bad breath, and everyone has a body odor. Although you may not detect them ourselves, other do. Therefore it is your duty to correct these conditions. Bad breath is due perhaps to some stomach disorder or your teeth may not be Nervous hot flashes "SOME time ago when in a very nervous, run-down condition," says Mrs. Martha F. Marlow, of Broken Bow, Okla., "I tried numerous remedies to try at least to keep going, but I could not. I was weak and tired—just no good at all. My back ached and I had hot flashes until I was so very nervous I smothered. "I couldn't sleep and I was never hungry, and I kept getting weaker. I couldn't stand on my feet. This was an unusual condition for me as I had been pretty strong all along. I knew that I would have to do something, and that pretty soon. "Some friend suggested that I take Cardui, and it certainly was a good suggestion, for after taking one bottle I could tell I was stronger and better. I didn't quit. I kept it up and did fine. I felt like a different person after I began taking Cardui." Cardui has helped thousands of suffering women. Sold by all druggists.

A good mouth wash should also be used as it acts as an antiseptic and has a tendency to remove food from between the teeth where the tooth brush does not reach. Visit a dentist at least once a year! If you could only get a microscopic view of your mouth, you would be surprised. It is more or less an incubator for germs unless you keep free from food particles. If the dentist or a mouth mough to decay your teeth, why should your breath not be offensive? Don't be shunned because of a bad breath or body odor. Keep your mouth clean and bathe frequently.

HOT PACK CANNING CUTS DOWN SPOILAGE Hot pack canning is the feature of a bulletin by Dr. Louise Stanley, the State Department of Agriculture tolling how to can fruits and vegetables. Hot pack is a quick and easy method which combines all the good points of the other popular methods and the additional advantages of its own. Briefly, the hot pack method is to wash and otherwise prepare the vegetable or fruit for canning, cook it or in a microwave in water or syrup in a kettle, potting hot into the glass jars or tin cans, and process in the water bath or pressure canner according to the time and temperature cooking of the fruit or vegetable wilts and shrinks it so that it can be packed more easily. It draws out the air and makes exhisting unnecessary. Most canning pots do not cool potting hot into the jars or cans and put at once into the hot canner reaches the temperature required for processing far sooner than if it were packed cold and possibly possessed a hardened portofolds. Moreover, heat penetrates more uniformly during canning and the food in the center of the jar is more likely to be properly processed. This cut down on the amount of space for apples to proper processing more than all else that determines whether canned foods keep or spoil.

Wednesday, May 26, 1926 Friday's Recital THE SECOND STEP in the constructive musical program sponsored by The Amsterdam News will be taken this Friday evening when, in the beautiful auditorium of Junior High School No. 136, the Harlem Community Chorus will make its initial bow to the public in a recital, under the direction of Max Dutzmann. WHILE the Chorus has a depleted treasury, the proceeds of the recital will be donated to the Katy Ferguson Home for Girls, one of the worthiest charities in the community. Thus, in patronizing the recital, persons interested in music and its exploitation with the masses as a stimulant to cultural advancement, will at the same time make a contribution to a necessary and worthy institution. THE FIRST STEP WAS taken in Town Hall last August when The Amsterdam News presented what was believed by many to have been the most unique musical event in the Negro's history. Those who heard Jessie A. Zackery, soprano, on that occasion will have the opportunity of hearing her again, for she will be guest-soloist of the chorus on Friday evening. A Prison Vacation PLEADING GUILTY to indictments charging violation of the Mann Act, Elder W. Roberson, known to members of his weird cult as the "Black Christ," was sentenced to a scant eighteen months in the Federal penitentiary at Atlanta, Georgia. Investigations in the case covered a period of three or four years and cost the government fifty thousand dollars. WEDNESDAY, when the case was called in Federal court, there were on hand as silent witnesses about twenty children of all ages, by as many different mothers, which the government agents were ready to prove were those of the leader of the sect. The agents were also prepared to take the stand and testify that Roberson had spent at least seven years in prison and had swindled the public out of a fortune, under the guise of religion, since 1908 when the cult was organized. AND YET, in eighteen months, this man will be free to take up his nefarious undertaking where he left it off for a prison vacation.

Schomburg Negro Library Sold At the instance of the National Urban League, the sum of $10,000 has been appropriated by the Carnegie Corporation of New York to the New York Public Library for the purchase of the Schomburg Library. This matchless collection of Afro-Americana, consisting of several thousand books, many of which are exceedingly rare pamphlets, manuscripts, autographs and prints, represents the labors of Arthur A. Schomburg over a period of thirty years, and offers for the student of Negro life and letters a rich storehouse of information. A part of this collection has been on exhibition at the Forty-second Street Library, where it attracted widespread interest, and another section of it, including over two hundred volumes on slavery, is a loan to the One Hundred and Thirty-fifth Street Branch of the Public Library. In the collection are as a base practically every important book written by or about the Negro in America and an astonishing revelation of books on the subject in French, German, Assyrian, Latin and Spanish. One volume bears the date of 1550. There is a presentation copy of the great Ludolf's History of Abyssinia printed in 1691. There are the books of such early Negro scholars and poets as Gustavus Vassa, Jacobus Capitien, Paul Cuffe, Jupiter Hammond, Juan Latino, Ignatius Sancho, Prince Saunders, Dellaron Vastey and Henry Sipkins; complete first editions of Dunbar, speeches of Frederick Douglass and Absolom Jones, more than 100 manuscript sermons and speeches of Alexander Crummer, volumes from the Sansci Press of Haiti, with 40 or more orders and memoranda in the handwriting of Toussaint L'Overture, bound volumes of all the Negro magazines, past and present, from the Anglo-Merican to the present, a complete memorandum record of Ira Aldridge, the great Negro tragallian, with programs, posters and press comments on his triumphs from all over the world, rare prints and mezzotints, one of the most precious of which is that by W. Ward of the Cheveller St. George, famous Negro composer and one of the greatest fencers of Europe, born in Martinique. Long and patient search has drawn these things into one repository. The picture of Benjamin Banneker which appears in Woodson's "The Negro in Our History" is the result of a 12-year search. In making this library available for public use through the medium of the New York Public Library, Mr. Schomburg refused many private offers greatly in excess of that sum and the public is indebted to him for his public-spirited dedication of his collection to stimulate the aspirations of young Negro literary talent as well as his determination to use the funds received for his library in investigations and extensions of its usefulness. Mr. Schomburg's desire is to have this collection available for students of Negro life and those of the Negro race who take pride in the achievements of their talented fellow race members. The following is a part of the resolution passed by the trustees of the New York Public Library in accepting the gift: "Resolved, That the collection so purchased shall be known as The Arthur A. Schomburg Collection of Negro Literature and Art: that it shall be kept as a separate reference collection, to which additions may be made from time to time; that the collection shall be deposited in such library of the New York Public Library system as shall seem advisable for the purpose of making the collection of the greatest use to the interested public; and that this collection shall form a part of the reference library belonging to New York Public Library, and pending further directions as to its deposit shall remain for the time being in the building of the 135th Street Branch, and be it further Resolved. That this board of trustees, desiring the advice and continued interest of Mr. Schomburg and of others who have been endeavoring to make this collection available for public use, hereby requests the following persons to serve on and to constitute an advisory committee of the Arthur A. Schomburg collection, vacancies occurring at any time in such committee to be filled by the board of trustees upon the nomination of the surviving members of the committee: "L. Hollingworth Wood. Arthur A. Schomburg, Henry G. Leach, Mrs. Charles S. Brown, Jr. Eugene Kinclek Jones." Charles S. Johnson, editor of Opportunity magazine, conducted the negotiations between the League and Mr. Schomburg, and L. Hollingworth Wood, president of the National Urban League, made the appeal to the Carnegie Corporation. Harmon Awards Date Extended Know New York State Three hundred years ago the little Sea Mew, out of Amsterdam, dropped anchor at the lower end of Manhattan and Peter Minuit bought the island for $24, about a tenth of a cnt an acre. It is now worth seven billion dollars. New York now leads all the States in the value of her exports, having last year taken from the coast, the total of $104,000,000 against $755,000,000. Pennsylvania is third, with $302,800,000. The Empire State has more homes equipped for gas and electric service than any other. Of about five million gas and electric meters in the State, more than four million serve domestic customers. They assist electric meters and ten thousand gas meters are being added in the State each month. In 1892 the debt of the State of New York was entirely extinguished. It is now approximately three hundred and twenty million dollars, or thirty dollars for each inhabitant. The death rate in New York State was reduced from 20.98 per 1,000 in 1898 to 11.49 in 1925. The birth rate has also dropped from 28.38 per 1,000 in 1898 to 20.16 last year. As the death rate decreases, it tends to focus more and more upon the very young and the very old, increasing the lifespan of those who survive early childhood. The New York State Conservation Commission has undertaken a search for a chestnut tree immune to the blight, which has killed most of the old chestnuts. TO STUDY RACE INFLUENCES IN U. S. A series of studies of race influences in American history is planned by the American Historical Association, which is seeking an endowment of $1,000,000, according to an announcement made recently by John S. Bassett, Professor of History in Smith College and member of the Endowment Committee. Professor Bassett said that the association aimed to establish a number of small annual grants for these studies and to name them in honor of distinguished Americans. Professor Bassett added that history writing usually did not pay and that his endowment was sought as an amount of money for investigators and writers who usually receive little direct financial return from their work. This view was supported by Professor Frederick L. Paxton of the University of Wisconsin. "The few thousands of dollars that the American Historical Association asks," he said, "will bring encouragement and opportunity to hundreds of good men who are engaged in the great volunteer work of reducing the tangled record of the past." WHITE PLAINS, May 24.—To make way for the new Mannanoneck River parkway, the Westchester County Park Commission Saturday began demolishing seven old frame houses along Westchester rue. The project, known as 75 years past as "Blackberry Row," a station of the underground railway for fugi- Announcement was made Friday by the Commission on the Church and Race Relations, 105 East 22d street, that the date for nominations or applications of candidates for the Harmon Awards for Distinguished Achievement for this year has been extended until August 1. A large number of inquiries indicating desire for a longer period for proposing candidates led the Commission and the Harmon Foundation to hold the doors for entrance open until this date. A series of awards totalling $3,500 with gold and bronze medals has been offered to American Negroes by the Harmon Foundaation of New York, on behalf of William E. Harmon, for the purpose of giving recognition to Negroes Book Chat by MARY WHITE OVINGTON "Turbott Wolfe" By WILLIAM PLOMER. Published by Harcourt, Brace & Co., 383 Mudison Avenue, New York City. "TURBOTT WOLFE" is a book about South Africa and its native problem. It depicts an Englishman of fine qualities, an artist, a humanitarian, thrown with intolerably cheap colonials and Dutch settlers, with people who, if not cheap, are so odd as to be unbalanced. These ignorant, ill-mannered white settlers talk of the natives as nothing but animals, while the men have their black mistresses and their black families. They bring disease with them and they despise African culture. Turbott Wolfe finds the last word to be said of them and of the white man's civilization in Africa, whether it be trader or agriculturist or missionary, is "unclean." tive slaves before the civil War. The houses along Blackberry Row were erected, together with a Methodist Church. The latter edifice stands beside the house of the late Andrew Boyd, who was recently the oldest inhabitant of the row. Boyd had lived there for about 60 years. Concealed in the hill country hiding places of North Castle, the fugitive slaves were added by Qunkors living in Purchase and the outskirts of Carlsbad, where they guarded the earliest and safest hiding place and later they came down to Blackberry Row. Louis Marshall One of the foremost authorities on constitutional law in the United States, Mr. Louis Marshall, as member of the Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and as a member of its Legal Committee, has already appeared in the association's behalf before the U. S. Supreme Court, arguing the famous Washington segregation case. Mr. Marshall is a leading force in Jewish philanthropy in the United States, and has served on numerous official bodies.

Unlike Sarah Millin, who wrote of South Africa in "God's Stepchildren," he finds much that is beautiful and dignified in the African, though he also sees that the best in the savage is being destroyed by so-called civilization. He thus describes a native girl to whom he is attracted: "She was a fine rare savage, of a type you will find nowhere and now it has been killed by the missionaries, the poor whites and the towns. An aboriginal, perfectly clean and perfectly beautiful. I have never seen such consummate dignity. She was in ambassadress of all that beauty (it being be called holiness), that intensity of the old wonderful unknown primitive African life—outside history, outside time, outside science." A very different picture from the squatting savages in Millin's tale, or the incredibly dirty creatures in the French Africa of Batunla. The plot of the book is slight, but it is bold enough to deal plainly with miscegenation, and with the passion that a white woman may feel for a colored man. But chiefly it has given the author the opportunity to talk about the ever interesting theme of color. Of South Africa, the writer says through one of his characters: "Native question, indeed! My good man, there is no native question. It's an answer. I don't know whether people are wifely blind that they can't see what's coming. The white man's as dead as a door nail in this country." His three principal characters get together and form a society of Date Extended who have made worth-white achievement in literature, music, fine arts, industry, including business, science including invention, education and religion. An additional award of $500 and a gold medal will be given each year to a white or colored person of American residence who makes a noteworthy contribution toward the betterment of relations between the white and Negro people in this country. Nominations and applications will be received until August 1 by Dr. George E. Haynes, secretary of the Commission on the Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches, 105 East 22d street, New York, to which organization has been committed executive direction of the awards. Forms for proposing candidates or for filing applications may be had by writing to that Commission. ..Keeping Fit.. By E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M.D. Adult Health THE infant and the young child have their health engineered and protected by their father, mother and organized society—such as city, state, social, philanthropic and welfare agencies. The child is the ward of society. To the adult man and woman, however, is left the important necessity of taking care of his or her own health. The details in his or her health program are left to his or her individual care. It seems to me that the majority of adults in these days are not taking care of these details. The adult works from eight to ten hours a day at some specific occupation. This is necessary to provide for shelter, food and clothing. The reserve strength and vitality of this same adult in many cases is being wasted in six to eight other hours of strenuous pleasures and unnecessary excitement. Thus, there is not enough time in the day's activities for bodily and mental rest. Thus, we see young men and women with physiologically over-worked vital organs. The heart, lungs, stomach, liver, intestines and brain are tired, worn out, and feeble, soon bringing on acute or chronic Chat B.

The half caste world is coming and they believe that they will prepare the way. The new missionary, one of the three, counts this more suitable work than teaching the natives that Esau was a hairy man and other such Old Testament tales. Of course, disaster comes to all three, and Turbott Wolfe, for whom you have a growing affection, and whom the natives learn to love and trust, has to give up his work and return to England. It is he who tells the story as he lies slowly dying of African fever. Here is one of the conclusions that he gives to his listening friend: "I think if you go into the question thoroughly you will find that ultimately our civilization is obscene. It has always seemed to me to be the most obstacle of our time that we take for granted that science is a panacea. The chief tendency of modern science has been to produce noise."

Thus, there is not enough time in the day's activities for bodily and mental rest. Thus, we see young men and women with physiologically over-worked vital organs. The heart, lungs, stomach, liver, intestines and brain are tired, worn out, and feeble, soon bringing on acute or chronic disease and disabilities. The candle is being burnt at both ends. Nowadays the adult has many things in his favor for proper and normal health. These are less hours for work —union time; more sanitary work places and factories, better wages, better housing and more health education. These benefits, though, are being nullified by a large majority of adults today through over-in diligence in riotous fun and strenuous pleasure. Peace of mind, rest of body and quiet recreation are three essentials necessary for a healthy life. Fresh air, sunlight and proper food are the other requisites for a healthy body. The young adults today are fun crazy. Not once in a while but "every night" seems to be their limit of strenuous fun. They are all singing this song: "To the dance hall we'll go and play With the folks until break of day. There we'll Charleston, dance and dine With lovely girls and music divine." These same young adults will be sending for a doctor at an age when they should be well and strong. At thirty years they will be old; ovarian trouble, pus in the fallopian tubes, liver congestion, gastric catarrh, ulcer of the stomach, heart trouble, inflammation of the kidneys, womb inflation, sterility and impotence will be the cost of today's foolish pleasure. The reserve vitality which every human being has will have been prematurely used up through over-indulgence in fun, frolic and unnecessary activity. The individual cells of the bodily organs cannot keep up the strain. The brain and sympathetic nervous system is overworked, and disease results. Financially these young adults are also defunct. There is no reserve bank account to take care of the debts incurred through illness. The end of the tragedy is that—an "old young" person is very ill in a hospital.
