SEES SWEETHEART KILLED
Nellie Lo Russell—The Devoted Housewife
Colorful News "Movies" By THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE
Vocational Guidance MISS NELLE SWARTZ (white). Vocational Guidance Expert and Director of the Bureau of Women in Industry of the New York Department of Labor, recently passed on to the public her excellent advice on the matter of selecting vocations for girls and boys. According to Miss Swartz, there is no reason why a son should be a carpenter merely because his father was one; or why a daughter should be a milliner just because mother was one. Thus, even the Negro boy and girl, in liberal states like New York, are being given the chance to develop a selective initiative; to attempt to find their work trend, and to cultivate the talent which in them seems most profitable and pleasant in their future work lives. This is an educational phase which is in its infancy, largely because parents, white and colored, are still insisting upon making a "plumber" of Johnny when he has a doctor's mind, or a doctor of Jimmy when his desires turn to automobile manufacture.
In America there are hundreds of thousands of Negro boys and girls who are missing vocational guidance, not only because of parental deflection, but, too, because of the trend of employers' minds to resist the justice of giving them chance to aspire to a general line of work in advance of that performed by father and mother. Jim's father was a cotton-picker, these employers reason that Jim is bound to follow the same line, anything in advance of that, to them seems ridiculous. They apply the doctrine to the group as well as to the individual.
To the ambitious Negro boy and girl, vocational training is the con of the day, when indiscriminately available. No one, as much as the Negro, needs to shake hands vigorously with Opportunity and to be given the chance to prospect himself or herself to the girl that dominant and suppressed tendencies may be quickened to their fullness.
The America of tomorrow will be in the hands of the American youth of today, white and black. Her progress and her measure of justice must be built upon policies shaped today. Vocational liberalism is the right of every American boy and girl, and employers as well as industrial experts and teachers of youth should pause and enough to give their workers' children, white and black, the chance to have a say in what their future shall be.
Georgia "Cracker" Sent to Jail

In announcing to sentence Magistrate Gottlieb it.

PERTH AMBOY SPORTSMAN FOUND FOULLY MURDERED
PERTH AMBOY, N. J., Aug. 9.—Julius Bennett, thirty years old, No. 301 Grove street, a well known sportsman of this city, was brutally murdered in his home.
Apparently using an axe, his assailants had chopped off his head, dismembered an arm and otherwise hacked and mutilated the body.
The murder was discovered when a white man, who had gone to the home on business, noticed a trickle of blood issuing from beneath the door of Bennett's house. No one responded to the visitor's ring and he notified police.
The house was bolted and barred from the inside. After police had effected an entrance by smashing a door, it was discovered that his assailants had entered by a cellar door, and locked it as they left. Bennett, according to police, had on a number of occasions been arrested on charges of operating a disorderly house.
'MORE THAN A WIFE TO ME,' SAYS JAMES, HER HUSBAND
Star Defense Witness in Hall-Mills Murder Case Came Originally From Virginia — Formerly Lived in New York
VOORHEES JUNCTION, N. J., Aug. 9.—Many are the unfavorable comments hurled at Mrs. Nellie Lo Russell. one of the star witnesses for the defense in the famous Hall-Mills murder mystery. And yet this woman, in spite of the many hours she is being grilled by the New Jersey State troopers and authorities, remains a devoted wife.
In the little Russell hut on Churchill avenue Mrs. Russell rises early enough to prepare breakfast for her husband, James, and then catch the eight o'clock train for New York, where she is supposed to be employed (and just where, nobody knows).
Mrs. Russell, a light brown-skin woman of about 40 years, upon first acquaintance is very cordial. Her fluent flow of speech makes one question the amount of thought and care she gives to what she is saying. She wears long, old-fashioned dresses. Her hair is woolly and is, therefore, naturally bobbed. "Nellie is more than a wife to me. She's a mother," said James Russell, in telling of the many times he has been ill and of how (Continued on Page 2.)

"WILL NEVER BREAK DOWN NELLIE RUSSELL'S STORY"
Husband Believed Officer Was a Burglar and Took His Gun Away From Him and Beat Him With It
"Stool pigeons" led, Detective Hart of the Sixteenth Inspection District into serious trouble last week. Upon the tips of the "stools" detectives entered the apartment building at No. 29 West 129th street, seeking prostitutes.
According to several witnesses, a woman who was being sought ran down the fire escape leading to the basement, where Levil Jacobe and his wife, Helen, live. Detective Hart alone pursued the woman.
Thinking that the woman had gone into the basement, the officer rapped on the door. Without explaining the purpose of his call and fashing a revolver, the officer ordered Mrs. Hill to stand back when she opened the door, she said.
Excited. Mrs. Hill screamed. Her husband, thinking it was a

"Candy Kid's" Wife
Retains Negro Lawyer
BALTIMORE, Aug. 9—Spurred on by a faint hope of saving her husband from hanging tomorrow, Mrs. Margaret Whittimore has retained G. L. Pendleton, a Negro attorney, to fight for "Candy Kid" Whittimore, who has been convicted for the murder of Robert Holtman, an aged prison guard.
Attorney Pendleton will contend that the element of premeditation, necessary in first degree murder conviction, was not properly established in Whittimore's case, and that therefore, the deam sentence
violates the fourteenth amendment to the federal constitution.
to the RULES.
Attorney Pendleton secured from Judge Robert F. Stanton in the City Court an order on a writ of habeas corpus directing Warden Brady to produce Whittemore in court today.
Pendleton contends he believes the procedure in the Maryland law whereby a jury is made the judge of the law and the fact in a criminal case is contrary to the United States Constitution. The lawyer also will charge that the State of Maryland and the State of New York conspired to convict Whittemore.

HALLOWAY SHOT DOWN BY GANGSTER WHO MAKES GETAWAY
Slain Man Was on Way Home With His Sweetheart When He Is Fired On and Fatally Wounded
Police are searching Harlem for a gangster who is believed to be the murderer of Edgar Halloway, 26, 65 West 135th street. Halloway was shot down and killed instantly last week while he was escorting his sweetheart, Miss Mabel Howard, 30 West 135th street, to her home.
The assassin fled from the scene and escaped without being seen. Halloway was pronounced dead by Dr. McCowan of Harlem Hospital when the ambulance reached 132d street, near Fifth avenue. The fatal bullet lodged in the victim's forehead.
Halloway and the Howard girl had been visiting in the building at No. 20 West 132d street just before the shooting. Evidently the murderer had been following the couple, for as soon as they advanced toward the avenue Halloway was fatally wounded.
Shortly after the shooting, Miss Howard fled from the scene, but was located later by the police. Whether or not she knew anything about the trouble that existed between her lover and the assassin could not be learned.
For two days the key witness in the murder mystery case awaited the coming of the troopers to place her under arrest. It is the belief of her husband. James, that the authorities are striving to intimidate her and force her to change her story.
"They will never break her down, and she will never change her story," exclaimed Russell in detaining the unbelievers of his wife's testimony about the presence of Mrs. Jane Gibson, the "pig woman," being in her shanty between 9:30 and 10 p.m. on the night of the dual murder.
"BIGGEST LIAR IN VOORHEES."
On the other hand, neighbors of Russell, who have lived in the sparsely populated hamlet for a number of years, declare that it is the "worst woman and the greatest liar" in Voorhees.
Lewis Blackwell and his wife, Mrs. Mary, who lived in a one-story frame dwelling almost directly in front of the Russell's place until recently, declared to representatives of The Amsterdam News that on the night of the murders they remembered distinctly seeing Mrs. Russell alone in her home.
Mrs. Blackwell asserted that her husband was sick at the time and in waiting on him she was up all night looking out the window most of the time.
"I don't believe Mrs. Gibson was in Mrs. Russell's house at that time (meaning between 9:30 and 10 p.m.). If she had been there on that night I am sure I would have seen her. I think she is lying about Mrs. Gibson," she said. Recalling her relations with Mrs. Russell Mrs. Blackwell said that her husband was slashed over the hand by the star witness after an argument over a cow. The Blackwells' cow was missing from home and the search ended for (Continued on Page 2.)
Corrections and Inaccuracies
The Amsterdam News has been informed by the occupants of the private house at 166 West 130th street that no one by the name of Edna Harrington, 23, who was held in $2,000 bail by Magistrate McQuade in the Washington Heights Court last week on a charge of felonious assault, lives there.

her, Mrs. Blackwell claims, in Mrs. Russell's premises. As Blackwell attempted to untie the animal from a post, Mrs. Russell attacked him with a large knife, slashing the hand that held the rope, she stated. While her husband stood beside the cow with his hand bleeding, she says that she went for the justice of peace. The Boulin Detective Agency, employed by the Amsterdam News, searched the court records and failed to find any account of disposition of the case.
BLACKWELLS' HOUSE BURNED
Prior to this time, which was after the murders, the two families had been on friendly terms, it was learned. The Blackwells met with serious misfortune. While they were away from home, their house caught on fire and was burned to the ground. The burning of the house is still an unsolved mystery. As the man and his wife were advancing down Churchill avenue towards home, they noticed huge volumes of smoke curling out of the roof. Baffled, they hastened their steps in the direction of the little hut and met their neighbor, Mrs. Russell, they asserted, coming down the road in a rather pleasing manner. There was not another person in the immediate community to be seen, they aver.
BACKED BY "WHITE WOMAN." A bachelor who lives a short distance from the Russell's place talked freely about Mrs. Russell. "Everybody is afraid of her," he asserted. Another family that lives in the little black colony by the name of Greenwood gave interesting information about the witness.

Mrs. Clara Greenwood declared that Mrs. Russell told her that Mrs. Hall was backing her. At the time Mrs. Russell was arrested for assaulting Blackwell, she told Justice of Peace William Chandler that he would never live to see her published. "Ten days later he died." Mrs. Greenwood said.
Mrs. Russell boasted to Mrs. Greenwood, the latter says, that she had no fear of anybody in New Brunswick, because "a big white woman" was backing her. Mrs. Greenwood's husband was also mentioned as a witness to this boast.
PROSECUTOR BELIEVES MRS. GIBSON.
Probably, with the substantiation of these statements, the story of the key witness in the murder mystery would crumble. Already the troopers have intimated to her that her veracity is questioned by her neighbors as to Mrs. Gibson's whereabouts on the fatal night. Senator Simpson has already expressed his confidence in the "pig woman's" story. In speaking of the progress of the case so far, he

"I am thoroughly satisfied with the statement of Mrs. Jane Gibson. I believe that Mrs. Gibson has told the truth."
MRS. RUSSELL INDIGNANT.
Flaring up like a spark from a
name, Mrs. Russellresented being questioned about her alleged remarks. So far as the Blackwells are concerned they are of the lowest type, she shouted. She slashed Blackwell when he insulted her. He attempted to take advantage of her while she was alone at home, she exclaimed. "The next time he won't get off so light," she predicted. Coming to the defense of his wife, Russell, who apparently is her only counselor, repudiated the statements by the neighbors. As he describes her, she typifies the very best in womanhood.
Since the reopening of the famous case Russell has given up his work "up to the other place" to become chief protector of the house. In order not to arouse the slightest suspicion, he is extremely careful. When both of them leave the house at the same time, they leave a sign tacked on the door telling how long they will be gone.
AEROPLANES CIRCLE HUT.
Although troopers are not on guard this week about the premises aeroplanes used by the authorities are constantly circuling over the little shanty in Churchill avenue. While steering reporters off from his wife as much as possible, Russell has been extremely hospitable to them. He talks intelligently about current social and economic problems. Often he digresses on his past experiences, which range
from a theatrical man to a writer. As he talks about his career as a newspaper man, he suddenly breaks off and begins talking about the Hall-Mills murder. In one of his spells, he said that he doubted seriously whether or not his wife has ever seen Mrs. Hall. He denied that she is acquainted with Mrs. Hall and spoofed the idea that Mrs. Russell had been paid by the accused murderer.

she has nursed him back to health.
Seven years ago, according to the Russells, they moved from New York City to Voorhees Junction, N. J. Mr. Russell's poor health, was given as the cause of this change of residence.
Mrs. Russell takes a delight in seeing her husband, a six-foot baritone, fashionably clad.
"Because we are in the country we don't have to be farmers," replied Mrs. Russell, when The Amsterdam News representative asked about Mr. Russell's tweed knickers and the white oxford shirt.
FROM VIRGINIA
Mrs. Nellie Lo Russell—and all the neighbors call her by her full name—is originally from Virginia.
Eighteen years ago she and Jae Russell, a native of Colum Ohio, were married. Little known of where and how couple spent the greater part these 18 years, as they refuse tell. Mr. Russell claims that he tended the Ohio State Univers worked on the New York We and other publications, and we several special feature articles conditions of the Negro for Saturday Evening Post
It is amusing to watch M Russell as she enjoys hearing his husband relate his varied and vivid experiences and claim an intimate friendship of such as Cyrus Curtis, Philadelphia publisher; the late Heary Lincoln Johnson; the late Senator Med McCormack, coeditor of the Chicago Tribune and the New York Daily News; Robert Churp prominent banker of Memphis Tenn., and J. Finley Wilson, altered grand ruler of the Elks the World.
Throughout the four-hour interview by starlight in front of the home of the Russells, Mr. Russell exhibited the highest form of courtesy for his wife, "Pardon Nellie," or "Have a seat. Nellie, or Don't get excited. Nellie," as frequently used expressions of her. In talking to her husband, Mr. Russell's conversation was co-stantly punctuated with "No. shi or "Yes, sir." as the case might be.

The last day of grace expired Friday for taking care of the mortgage. The building was to be placed on sale at once. The Garveyites refused to meet in a conference with the present group that is in its annual convention at the hall to consider means of staving off the loss of the property.
At the last minute, it is reported that George Western, president of the organization, appealed to Mr. Holstein. Convincing him that the organization was operating on a here in their 37th annual convention, paused in its deliberation to endorse the Pullman. Porters' Union.

At the last minute, it is reported, George Western, president of the organization, appealed to Mr. Holstein. Convincing him that the organization was operating on a strictly business basis and on a constructive industrial program, he consented to advance the large sum of money. Determined to carry out their motto, "Build from the ground up, and not from the air down," the assembly passed a resolution containing the reckless handling of money by the Garvey regime. Getting down to a more tangible platform, the association voted to drop the title of "Provisional President of Africa" attached to the general president's name by Marcus Garvey. William McD. Holder, secretary of the association, declared that the title of Provisional President of Africa was an insult to the African people.
Leaders of various movements have been invited to address the convention. Among them are A. Phillip Randolph, organizer of the Pullman Porters' Union; William Pickens, field secretary of the NA A. A.

During this week's sessions a great deal of debate will be given to the position that Marcus Garvey is to hold with the organization on his release, from the Federal Prison at Atlanta, Ga. One thing certain, he will never be the so-called President of Africa.

French Protest
Against Negro Artist French theatrical men are beginning to protest against the number of American Negroes on the French stage, according to an Associated Press dispatch from Paris. "Negromania" is what a writer in the principal French theatrical journal calls the new stage fashion. But the writer protests that he writes from no "negrophobe" point of view. What he complained of was that it should be American Negroes who are making the profits from the vogue, when France has her own "splendid colonies and consequently her own splendid Negroes." Envy seems, therefore, to be at the bottom of the protest, and not a new prejudice against the Negro in general.
Abused Policeman, White Man Fined
Same Man Was Sentenced to Workhouse in Traffic
Court
For abusing a colored patrolman, a white motorist was fined $10 in the Washington Heights Court by Magistrate McQuade Friday on a charge of disorderly conduct. When arraigned on summons in the Traffic Court Saturday the white man was sentenced to thirty days in the workhouse.
According to Patrolman Joseph Brown of the West 135th street station, Anthony Porcelli of Mt. Vernon collided with another automobile at 145th street and Lenox avenue, and attempted to drive away from scene.
Patrolman Brown said that he jumped on the running board of another machine and gave chase. Leaping onto the fleeing car the policeman pulled on the brake, stalling the motor.
Porcelli then abused him for interfering with his automobile. The officer then arrested him for disorderly conduct and gave him a summons for violating the traffic law.

MURDER
Pleading guilty in self-defense, Mrs. Jennie Chisholm, 459 East 171st street, was held without bail in the Bronx Homicide Court Saturday for shooting and killing her husband, William. An additional charge of violating the Sullivan law was made against the woman by Detectives Harris and Lenahan of the Bathgate avenue station, when they found a 38-callibre revolver in the kitchen of her home immediately after the shooting. According to Mrs. Chisholm's etory, her husband was released from the penitentiary only last Tuesday, after serving a term for slashing another man with a razor.
Her husband had beaten her several times before being sent to jail and failed to support her. Mrs. Chilholm said. She rented the 11st street apartment for herself, but her husband found out where she was living and came to the front door Tuesday night.
He had threatened to beat her, so she refused to open the door for him. Chilholm then left the house, but returned shortly afterward
and his wife heard him forcing the door with a long-bladed knife. She ran into an inside room and took the revolver from a bureau drawer. Opening the door, her husband rushed at her and she pointed the pistol at him. He refused to leave and flourished the knife at her. She fired three shots. One shot went wild, but the other two struck Chisholm. He dropped to the floor and, when police entered the apartment, was unconscious from loss of blood. An ambulance rushed him to Fordham Hospital, where he died on the operating table shortly afterward from loss of blood.
Actress Slashes Her Sweetheart
Youth, However, Relents and Pleads That She Be Freed
Because her boy friend failed to keep his engagement, it is alleged, Ethel George, actress, 129 West 137th street, slashed Sylvester Wilson, 20. 479 Morris avenue, Bronx, in the stomach.
Brought before Magistrate Douras in the Morrisania Court Friday morning, Miss George was held in $1,000 ball for the grand jury. In spite of the assault, Wilson pleaded with the court for the release of his sweetheart.
Wilson had disappointed the young woman the night before the alleged attack occurred. The next day she visited him at the Morris avenue number, where Wilson is employed as an elevator operator. An argument is said to have followed on her arrival. Miss George, it is claimed, then took out a penknife and slashed her friend. Wilson was so badly cut that it was necessary for him to be removed to Fordham Hospital for treatment.
street, a taxicab driver, it was alleged, drove the two other prisoners to the scene where silk valued at $8,000 was stolen. He was represented by Attorney Alexander Rosenthal.
Pointing out to the court that Hines was hired by the two other defendants who described themselves as Richard Doran and Richard Green, both of 1938 Edgecombe avenue, on the night of the robbery, he declared that he had no knowledge of the men's business.
In convincing the court that his client was not acting in concert with the other prisoners, the court granted the lawyer's motion to dismiss Hines. The robbers pleaded guilty through their counselor, Attorney Thomas J. Sullivan.
After remanding the two prisoners to the Tombs, he intimated that he would give them the maximum sentence, which is ten years in Sing Sing.
ALLEGED VACANT JAILED.
On a charge of vagrancy, Benjamin Scotland, 16, 172 Spruce street, Stamford, Conn., was sentenced to 30 days in the workhouse by Magistrate. Silberman in the West Farms Court Friday.

PARIS HITCHES GARTER TO GOWN WITH MANNISH TROUSER EFFECT
PARIS, Aug. 8. — Another step toward mannishness in women's attire is the trouser skirt. It is created by a garter, which is part of the gown, and is fastened just below the knee on one side. It gives a straight trouser effect to the side of the skirt.
The first example was shown by Paul Poiret at the opening of the fall styles, on a formal coat gown of black velvet. The garter itself was of red satin, heavily embroidered in gold.

In the varied collection he showed recently there were long skirts with tight blouses which are entirely different from the bloused backs which are going to be the prevailing Paris fashion. He uses peasant embroideries and trims sumptuous velvet costumes with goat fur. He used gold on sport suits and fine furs on cloth garments. Birds as decorations is another idea, silver ones being shown flying across a black satin cowl, with three on each pocket.

Household Lore
Knife handles can be kept white if they are occasionally wiped with spirits of wine.
To make an old brown leather bag look like new, first wash it with soap and water and then give it a good rubbing with a flannel moistened in oil. Three coatings of brown liquid shoe polish should then be applied. Finally apply a thin coating of white shellac, which will provide an excellent polish. A black bag may be treated in similar fashion by using black polish or gloss.
An excellent polish for mahogany is a tablespoon of olive oil mixed with a teaspoon of vinegar. Apply the fluid with a soft flannel after the wool has been dusted. Then polish thoroughly with a soft, clean duster.
Iodine should not be used when it has been kept for any length of time. This is because the alcohol in which iodine is dissolved evaporates rapidly and the tincture thus becomes concentrated and the strength is increased. It is best to buy iodine in small quantities and to use it sparingly.

Fashion Hints
Very smart for Fall is the black satin frock with the vestee. The frock is gracefully gathered in front above the shirred side-panels and the georgette gilet is embroidered in gold.
Frock With Bows.
A lovely frock! It's chic, it's distinctive, and, above all, has exquisite quality—the frock of flat crope made in summer and autumn colors—with bows on the left shoulder, the sleeves and the lower left waistline.
Dishwashing Made Easy
In less time than a good suds can be made in a dishpan, a batch of solled dishes are washed, dried and sterilized by the simple procedure of throwing on an electric switch at one of the exhibits of the Sesqui-Contenial International Exposition, now being held in Philadelphia.

Soft Hair In Latest Style May Be Yours

"Exelento Quinine Pomade quickly cleansed my scalp," she says, "and gave my hair a healthy glow it never had before, besides making it smooth and stylish."
"Exelento Skin Soap also gave me a new look," she says, "and all skin discolors leaving my face like skin."
No woman need be ugly because of hair or complexion. Through the daily use of Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento hair you may develop beauty in a short time.

THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT
THE passing of Theodora Bean, president of the New York Newspaper Women's Club, on August 5. after a three weeks' illness, took from the newspaper field a resourceful worker.
Miss Bean's work as a journalist was varied. She covered club news, worked in the sports department, took general news assignments, and learned how to rewrite. During the latter part of her career she was a special feature writer.
Her first position was with the Chicago Daily News; later she worked with the Morning Telegram and then with the Evening-Telegram. In 1924 Miss Bean founded the T-Bean Syndicate at 299 Madison avenue.
This woman, a charter member of the New York Newspaper Women's Club, helped to pave the way for all future women journalists.
Some authorities in the field of professional journalism agree that women, in time, will hold all the positions that a newspaper may offer.
Are you in the field? Are you thinking of entering the field? Let nothing stop you. Theodora Bean made her way and proved that women are assets to the "fourth estate."
Miss Bean's success, however, came through preparedness. Are you thoroughly preparing yourself for the profession?—T. E. B.
Suggestions
One fresh pineapple, one-half pound marshmallows, three-quarter cup heavy cream, four tablespoons powdered sugar, one tablespoon lemon juice.
Shred the pineapple with a fork.
Cut the marshmallows into small pieces, using a pair of scissors.
Mix pineapple and marshmallow and let stand on ice until thoroughly chilled. Just before serving, whip cream and add sugar to it.
Add lemon juice to the pineapple mixture and then fold in the whipped cream. Serve immediately.
Lettuce and Onion Salad.
Two lettuce hearts, one Spanish onion, French dressing.
Wash hearts of lettuce, pull them to pieces and drop into ice water to make them crisp. Peel onion and cut it into thin shavings. Dry lettuce as much as possible. Arrange alternate layers of the lettuce and onion slices, sprinkling on each layer a little French dressing.

That Baby You've Longed For
Mrs. Burton Advises Women on Motherhood and Companionship.
"For several years I was denied the blessing of motherhood," writes Mrs. Margaret Burton, of Kansas City, was terribly nervous and apprehensive and melancholia. Now I am the proud mother of a beautiful little daughter and a true companion and inspiration to my wife. I am delighted that women would like to know the secret of my happiness, and I will gladly reveal it to any married woman who advises her to be a devoted advice entirely without charge. She has nothing to sell. Letters should be addressed to Mrs. Margaret Burton, 258 Massachusetts, Kansas City, Mo. Dependence will be strictly confidential.

The Cook Says
When making cake measure your flour after slitting it. This means economy in flour and a light cake. Too much flour causes the cake to break open while baking. Don't use inferior butter. It is poor economy. Don't melt the butter as this will change the flavor and texture of the make. Don't allow cakes to cool in pans unless the recipe specially calls for such.
Strong flavored vegetables such as onions, cabbage and turnips should be cooked in an uncovered vessel in a large quantity of water.
"Left-overs" often make dishes that are more appetizing than some original servings. To be an efficient housewife, you must learn how to take advantage of left-over food.

The brush should then be washed in water to which a little ammonia has been added, or borax may be substituted for the ammonia. The brush should not be completely immersed in the water, nor should the back of it be wet, as that injures the fastening of the bristles. It should be gently moved up and down in the water and allowed to dry thoroughly. However, before the final rinsing, dissolve a little alum in the rinsing water, which will increase the stiffness of the bristles.

TO you it may seem surprising, but the majority of cases of dandruff are caused by the use of the comb and brush of a person infected with the disease. This may happen in one's own household, while travelling or at the barber's. Other cases are communicated by accidental contact with the heads or hats of an infected person. Dandruff is a more serious disease than the majority of persons think it is. The disease causes 50 per cent of baldness and it is assumed by the medical profession that dandruff is a germ disease, or one caused by the presence of a bacterium or minute parasite.
Dandruff is a more serious dis- Therefore, every person should have his own special comb and brush and should avoid using those of others. Do not permit others to use yours. The reasons for these restrictions are that, by using the comb and brush of one afflicted with dandruff, the person who does so will acquire it. There are also several other more painful and disfiguring contagious diseases which are transmitted by the same means. So avoid using others' brushes. Like most germ diseases which thrive on dirt and flth, dandruff cannot only be prevented, but in many cases can be completely cured by the simple means of keeping the head clean, with moderately frequent shampooings and the occasional use of a good hair pomade, oil or tonic. Care should be taken to clean
LADIES, DON'T YOU KNOW
Negroes employed in British merchant ships are marrying white women in British ports, according to a clipping from the Spectator. Although the writer of the article deplores the tendency, she states that her investigation disclosed the white women were well satisfied with their lot.
The Spectator's correspondent writes:
"The writer once asked a gentle, refined woman with three children of various shades of color, all with woolly hair, how she could have brought herself to marry a black man, and what sort of future she expected for her children, and this was the answer:
"They make good husbands, those men. They treat us like queens. They give us plenty of money; they don't drink; they are good to the children; the pay is regular while they are away, and they always come back to us. There's many a woman with a white husband worse off.
"The children? Well, there are such a lot of them now that nobody seems to think much about it; they don't mind them in the schools. They won't hurt."

High Price Paid for One Drink
High Price Paid for One Drink
Interesting Story, With First Scene Laid in Former Myrtle Avenue Club
A story of how one drink of good whiskey cost $165.77 was revealed recently, when a Supreme Court referee awarded this amount to Mrs. Gussie Bonner, widow of the late Robert Bonner, who was well known in the sporting world and an owner of the Royal Cafe, which was located at 175 Myrtle avenue some years ago.
According to the record in the case, one Bettle Booker, now deceased, went in to "Bonnie's," as Bonner was known to all his friends, and ordered a highball, for which she paid. Then she ordered several others, and when the waiter in the cafe, which was opened many years ago by the late John Bonner, could later to Bonner bought to collect Miss Booker found that she was short of funds. Mr. Bonner was called, and the young woman gave a tax lien for $57 as security. She had bought the lien for several dollars, and evidently did not know its real value. Bonner, however, took this. This occurred 17 years ago. In the course of time Miss Booker died, and Mr. Bonner died. His wife was made the administrator of the estate and found this account. She played Attorney Rufus L. Perry as the counsel for the estate and he advised Mrs. Bonner to keep the lien
Some months ago the owners of the property against which the lien was placed sought to sell this property, and when the record was searched it was found that a lien had been placed against it. The case was taken to court and Lawyer Perry was requested to locate Mrs. Bonner, who had left Brooklyn since the death of her husband. She was located in Canada, her native land. Mrs. Bonner came to Brooklyn and the case was called for trial. A referee was assigned by the court who decided that the estate of Miss Booker was responsible for the lien and all interest for the last 17 years. The original amount was $57,880 the grand total to $165,777.
bringing the grand total to $165,777. Old-timers who are conversant with conditions that prevailed prior to the advent of the law made famous by Mr. Volstead as sent that this one drink in those days retained at 15 cents, and concluded their comment by remarking how expensive this one extra drink was.
Miss Booker, who was well known in the downtown section, is reported as having left an estate of some size and the award of the referee will be collected by Mrs. Bonner in full.
Freeport Man Shot Dead Running From Cops
FREEPORT. Aug. 4—Henry Hamilton, 27, who was shot and killed while fleeing from Patrolmen George Carpenter and William Brosnan on Henry street, here had a prison record, says District Attorney Edwards, who exonerated the officers. Hamilton is alleged to have attacked Carpenter on Newton boulevard a few minutes before, hitting him with his fist and knocking him down. Carpenter called Brosnan, who pursued the man. After calling to him to stop and discharging their revolvers in the air, they saw Hamilton enter a dark allee. The patrolmen toddled to the leg of the leg, one of the shots, struck him in the back. Hamilton ran about 10 feet and was dead when they reached him.
Hamilton is said to have had a reputation of carrying a revolver, although no revolver was found in his possession. The District Attorney also said it would be impossible to tell who fired the fatal shot, and there would be no prosecution. Hamilton had an altercation with James Zeigler also colored of 42 Newton boulevard, over a woman. Zeigler told the police that Hamilton had a revolver. Carpenter went to the house and was struck by Hamilton.

"Learn to Swim Week" at Carlton Avenue "Y"
The boys of Brooklyn are urged to take advantage of "Learn to Swim Week" at the Carlton Avenue Y. M. C. A. August 16 to 23. During this week all boys between the ages of 10 and 16, whether members or not, will be given swimming instructions daily from noon to 10 a.m. Every boy in Brooklyn should be a swimmer and we must admit that there is not a single place which we might term as safe for a beginner. The "Y" pool is the place for the boys to learn the movements that cause the body to move through the water and remain in a safe position. Non-members are urged to take advantage of this opportunity for after the dates indicated, only those having paid-up memberships will be allowed the privilege.
Brooklynites for Sen. Wadsworth
The members of the David A. Simmons Association of the 11th Assembly District, which is the regular colored Republican organization of this district, celebrated the first anniversary of their removal to their new clubhouse, which is located at 78 Irving place. The celebration took place recently. A monthly meeting of the organization was held at the same time, and U. S. Senator James W. Wadsworth was endorsed for re-election.
David A. Simmons, standard bearer and president, presided.
This clubhouse is the second one in Kings County that is owned by the members and, is not subsidized by the write district organization.
It is a commodious two-story and basement building. On the first floor is the members meeting room, and on the second floor is the rest room. In the basement is the dining room which is presided over by Chef William Sellers, who is also chef for the Brooklyn Edison Company.
A feature of the club is that no gambling is allowed, and no member is permitted to bring intoxicating beverages or "number" ellips into the place.
The club for years had been located on Classon avenue. Last year members pooled their funds and opened this new clubhouse.
The other officers of the club are: Lester Eldsworth, vice-president, and William A. Bryant, secretary.
Brooklyn "Y" Boys' Camp Officially Closed Aug. 5
Carlton "Y" boys' camp closed Thursday, August 5, according to schedule, but 22 boys were permitted to remain throughout the men's period. Parents have noticed the benefits of camp life in the appearance and general health of their sons to the extent that they wished them to remain the entire summer season.
The boys' camp will be in a way separate from that of the men's and will afford the same recreative features and benefits of study that were to be had during the boys' period. Of 74 different boys at camp, 47 were taught to swim distances ranging from 100 feet to 150 yards. Nature and Bible study classes were conducted throughout the entire period and not a single serious case of illness developed.
Men are looking forward to a fine camp season and are signing up daily. The Carlton Avenue Branch welcomed the opportunity to serve the boys of the West 135th Street Branch, New York, and St. Phillips P. E. Church. Boys from these two organizations quickly partnered with the Carlton "Y" group and a fine fraternal spirit existed.
Carlton "Y" baseball team, while holding last place in the Brooklyn Y. M. C. A. Baseball League, is showing better spirit and better form and is certain to move up nearer the top during the several games that are to follow. Friends of the branch are urged to support the team and witness the games which are played at Prospect Park baseball field every Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock. A little more applause and encouragement on the Carlton side will do much toward developing team play and determination to win.
Very truly yours.

Opposition of Whites Overcome and Congregation Will Move in Sept. 1st
Despite the vigorous protests of a number of white neighbors, the members of the Boyle A. M. E. Zion Church, of which the Rev. C. F. Kirton is the pastor, have been able, after much maneuvering, to purchase the Third Unitarian Church, which is located at Irving place and Gates avenue. The price paid was $45,000. The church is at present located at Bergen street near Claston avenue, and since the pastorate of Dr. Kirton has outgrown its present quarters, the pastor and the trustees decided to look for another edifice. When they heard that the Unitarian Church was on the market their agent approached the officials of the church, made them an offer. They at first considered, Intimating that they did not desire to sell to colored people. A number of white people heard of the possible sale and became indignant.
Dr. Kirton when seen by a representative of The Amsterdam News stated that it was not his desire so much to get into an exclusive white neighborhood as it was to find a suitable church home for the large influx of our people who are now coming to this section.
After some alterations the congregation is expected to take possession of the church on the first Sunday in September.
This church will be located in the 17th Assembly District, which has a larger number of colored residents living in its connecns than any other district in Kings County.

Young Brooklynites
Arrested at Coney
Island Last Friday
Because they were walking abreast on the Coney Island boardwalk and were alleged to be making boisterous noises, refusing to break their "company front." 10 young colored men were arrested early Friday morning, Aug. 6, at Coney Island. They were charged with disorderly conduct, and brought before. Magistrate Golden in the Coney Island Court on complaint of Policeman Richard Mans. They pleaded guilty and were fined $25 each or five days in the workhouse.
The men said they were William Lawrence, 59 Troy avenue; Clifton Williams, 461 Carlton avenue; Reginald Spencer, 57 Putnam avenue; Theodore Spencer, 57 Putnam avenue; William Hines, 694 Putnam avenue; Le Roy Roberts, 984 Fulton street; Richard Puryear, 49 Putnam avenue; Ernest Neal, 482 Jefferson avenue; William Jones. 122 Putnam avenue, and Ivan Fisher, 500 Classon avenue.
Officer Manes told the court that when he admonished the young men and requested them to stop their noise, they not only refused to stop but became very abusive. So Officer Manes, Sec. of the magistrate decided to give them this heavy fine for abusing the officer.
Smith's Stay on L.I.Paper Short
Former Garvey Associate Leaves New Paper to Paddle Its Own Canoe
Rudolph Smith, a former adherent and associate of Marcus Carver, genial, honest, ambitious, industrious and a most personable young man, he keenened unto the call of a new sheet published in Jamaica, L, I, a few weeks ago, and as editor-chief carried to the fast growing suburban town the enthusiasm of youth when youth is unaware of certain conditions which, like a serial story, is only disclosed in the climax. Smith, in his travels with the story of his hopes and aspirations for the new organ, which many believe belong to the parasite element of such publications whose tenure of existence depends on political recognition, what the cannot deliver, wondered they, many of his friends insisted that his stay with the paper would be a short one. He quit about two weeks ago and it is said he has ceased to wonder.
Wagers are being freely laid by the "inner circle" of those supposed to know as to the length of time most likely to be spent on the paper by the only other member of the staff with a little experience in the business. White Democrats in New York City woke up ages ago to the futility of trying to maintain an organ to win over the colored vote, but apparently the whites of the same political faith on Long Island are "from Missouri" and must be shown.
That they will be shown is evident from the desperate attempt being made to make of the sheet a camouflage pictorial with news of every place but the town in which it was born, bred and will soon die, and but for the gasographic and verbose publisher the entire thing would be tragic but for the unconscious humor he injects in his attempt to be an unbleached Pulitzer, born, as he tells himself, to lead his people from the dark confines of Jamala's South street into the fastnesses of Vernon and far, far away from Charlie Weintraub the Millacolon Building Corporation. So, Rudolph Smith has shaken the sands of Long Island from feet that in his last days with the "Gazelle" became rather reluctant to make the daily pilgrimage to the town which we mapped, and once more his engaging and smiling countenance reflects the glory and grandeur of another trusting heart due to go wrong but for the timely escape of its owner.

Escaped Lunatic Preaches to Cops
Carries Religion Into Station House in Jamaica on Sunday
The police reserves of the Jamaica station house being on duty Sunday morning could not attend church, but they soon heard a sermon and a few religious hymns were sung in a deep hiss. When they went to investigate they found that Handy Merrill was being led into the station house by Officer William Toomey. Gathering in a circle in the back room of the station house, they listened for a few hours to the words of wisdom and religion that came from Merrill, mingled here and there with songs and religious quotations from the famous authors and poets.
Officer Toomey, according to the police report, had been tipped off that a innate was in the neighborhood, and while on post at South street and Rockaway boulevard he heard a large, booming voice quoting the Scriptures and prophagy. Here was his man. So he told him about a little real estate business that was waiting for him farther up the line, and the two, chatting about religion and greeting real estate, walked to the station. It later developed that he had escaped from Central Ilpia Insurgent Asylum last Friday, and had been preaching ever since. His enrolment was profound and held the police spellbound. He later was taken to the Kings County Hospital after he had partaken of a policeman's lunch.
ELLSWORTH BOYS PROGRESSIVE
From one small automobile truck to a fleet of automobile trucks, which they use in the plane moving and general truck business, is the record of the Elsworth brothers, who are located at 46 Putnam avenue.

The General Committee Meeting of the World's Student Christian Federation is now in session at Nyborg Strand, Denmark. The sessions will continue through August 25. The last meeting of this nature was held at High Leigh, England, in 1924. Delegates are present representing thirty-six nations and races.
Among the African delegation is Max Yergan, association secretary for native students of South Africa, John Dillingham, Shaw University and the Yale School of Religion, is one of the ten American delegates participating in the meeting.
Mr. Dillingham as the representative of Colored American students, men and women, is also the representative of the National Student Councils of the United States. Dr. John R. Mott, president of the World's Y. M. C. A. Alliance and one of the founders of the Federation, said, in a preliminary wording: "There are many signs that the Federation is gathering strength for a resolute move forward."
Music Teacher Seeks Apt Students
"The tone over the breath" is the tone that Gloria Adele possesses and teaches. In her studio at 612 West 112th street, Apartment 6, Cathedral 7966, during August by special appointment Miss Adele will examine voices of interested Negro men, women and children. "I am in search of students who are mentally alert, students who have some musical ability, and students who have the will to sing," said Miss Adele. "If I find the person who has these three qualities, and who does not have sufficient funds to study with me on the tuition basis, I am willing to sign a contract with the student and teach him or her to sing."
When asked why she came to the Negro race with such a proposition, Miss Adele said: "Negroes are said to have thick tongues—tongues not good for singing. I have gone to the hardest first—your group. My plan is to disprove this. It will then be possible for Negroes to have their own operets and present opera in the finest style."
Miss Adele, a former Metropolitan Opera singer, was hurt six years ago by a trolley car in New York. Since that time she has conducted a private studio at home. Her professional work, the tone over the breath, is what is called the bird-like quality.
"You can sing without using your throat. More than that, you can sing with more throat and can sing when you are a hundred years old," says Miss Adele. In the early fall she plans to give demonstrations of her work at such places as the Urban League Assembly Rooms, the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A.

Pullman Porters Want Referendum
Poll to Precede Presentation to Mediation
Board
It was announced at the headquarters of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters today that, upon the advice of Frank P. Walsh, Donald Richberg and C. Francis Stradford, attorneys for the brotherhood, a nation-wide referendum vote has been instituted as the preliminary to their presentation of the union's demands before the new Railroad Mediation Board.
The referendum is a carefully drawn ballot in which 12 definite questions are asked. If the porters and maids answer in the affirmative, the next step of the brotherhood will be to call for a conference with the Pullman Company. In the event of refusal an amic statement will be filed with the Mediation Board. Some of the questions the porters and maids must answer are:
Do you want the payment of a living wage and better working conditions?
Do you want pay for preparatory time, terminal time, delays and doubling?
Do you want a simplified time sheet?
Do you want the plan of employee representation of the Pullman Company or the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters?
The fourth question asked is causing a great deal of favorable comment among the porters and maids. This question deals with the matter of back pay. It is familiar to the organizers of the union that, if permitted to go into the matter, some very interesting things dating back for several years will be uncovered.

Owners of the pharmacy in the Lafayette Building, 131st street and Seventh avenue, along with 28 white druggists and 27 white doctors, and four white drug corporations, were indicted by the July Federal Grand Jury for conspiracy to violate the national prohibition act.
This action is the outcome of a drive against so-called "prescription bootlegging," which, it is alleged, caused the withdrawal by druggists last year of 500,000 gallons of whiskey "over and above the quantity for which legal prescriptions had been issued."

John Davis Discusses Students' Problems in Northern Schools
About four hundred and teachers attended the three sessions of the sixth annual educational conference of the West 135th Street Branch Y. M. C. A. August 5 to 7. John Davis, acting assistant editor of The Crisis, discussed "Problems of Negro Students in Northern Universities" on Thursday evening, August 5. He stated that the Negro student's problems are of two kinds: those thrust upon him, such as finding amusements for his spare time; those created by himself, such as "carrying a chip shoulder." Interested extra-curricular activities is a step toward leadership. Students should prove equality instead of preach equality," said Mr. Davis.
Commenting further on the subject, Mr. Davis said: "The position of Negro women in white colleges is terrible. White women will make friends with white and Negro men. Negro men will make friends with white and Negro men and women. Yet white men—and very often white women—will not make friends with Negro women. In addition to our problems in northern universities lies here: When in college our group must stop herding together. We must be natural and take part in all activities we can get into." Prof. Ambrose Calver, assistant dean of Flask University, in speaking on "Problems of Students in Negro Colleges," said that our problems are those of standardization, authority, scholarship and the increase in the cost of education. On Friday evening, August 6, George F. Hillill, secretary of the Fellowship of Reconcilation, and Frank T. Wilson, student secretary of the National Council of the Y. M. C. A.—sold of inter-racial forums that are being organized.
Miss Juliette Derricotte, national student secretary of the Y. W. C. A., in telling of methods used to organize forums between Negro and white Y. W. C. A.'s, said the vital question is "What to do next." On Saturday evening, August 7, White wrote in the National Association for the advancement of Colored People, discussed the development of Negro literature. "Negro life is a fertile field that has barely been touched," said Mr. White, in telling of the prospects of racial literature.
"Negro music had its beginning in the underworld," said George S. Schuyler, who spoke on the development of Negro art. In 1910, he wrote of the place to sing "blues," but now it is considered art. In short, Negro music is undergoing an evolution."
On each night of the conference guest artists appeared.

Harlem to Have Optometric Clinic
To Be Opened in September at Urban Lague Building
The parents of Harlem will welcome the news of plans for the opening of an Optometric Clinic at the Urban League building. According to a report recently published by the Eye-Sight Conservation Council of America more than 60 per cent of public school children have eye defects of sufficient character to warrant attention and correction. A visual acuity test revealed that 25 per cent have manifest defects of eyesight and symptoms of eye strain. This is verified by a study of the U. S. Bureau of Education. On Monday evening of this week Doctors R. J. Foster, V. A. Renwick and J. H. Jenkins, three of Harlem's colored optometrists, conferred with James H. Hubert, executive secretary of the Urban League, regarding plans for remedying these conditions. It was developed at this conference that the children of Harlem who suffered from defective eye-sight are without proper attention.
Beginning September 10, room will be set apart at the Urban League building, equipped with the necessary appliances for conducting a clinic. The doctors will volunteer their services, with the Urban League donating space and general supervision.
Registration will be open on and after Sept. 1.

To prevent more serious accidents, the police have started a crusade against bad boys who are jumping on and off moving trolley cars in Harlem.
According to the New York Railway Company, over 200 boys were arrested last summer and the police fired. The Sheriff the number seems to be increasing over previous years, in spite of the warnings given out by the company.

Harlem Porto Ricans United
Brotherhood Formed to Aid in Meeting Trade Competition
From the long, animated discussion in Spanish engaged in Sunday afternoon in Harlem Casino, Lenox avenue and 116th street, under the auspices of Porto Ricans and other Spanish speaking peoples, it was gathered that the recent race riot in Harlem between Porto Ricans and Jews grew out of economic rivalry.
For several years the Porto Rican colony between 110th and 120th streets, and between Second and Manhattan avenues, has been increasing rapidly. It was said at Sunday's meeting that this group's population is around 40,000.
In recent months, numerous business places have been opened by Porto Ricans, who have solicited the help of their countrymen with satisfactory results to them, but not to the liking of competitors. One result was a race riot that was not quelled until police reserves from four precincts had been called.
The meeting Sunday was referred to as "a movement to organize a community center." In the resolutions passed and in the speeches emphasis was laid on the necessity of Porto Ricans and other Latin-Americans living in the community getting together for the advancement of their cultural political and economic interests.

Dr. Garvin Assured of Police Protection
In response to a letter from the N. A. C. P., Edwin D. Barry, Director of the Department of Public Safety in Cleveland, has written giving assurance that "every possible protection" will be given to Dr. Charles H. Garvin, who has been threatened with death if he does not vacate his house, which has been the object of two bombing attacks.
"We are mindful," writes Director Barry, "of the fact that Doctor Garvin is a citizen of the United States and is entitled to his constitutional rights and it is our plain duty to see that he is given every possible protection. You may rest assured that Dr. Garvin will not be neglected."

This Week,
Lawyer for Jack Trotter, e
to Collect Moneys Bo
Into Alhambra Theatre
ers Declared Themselve
The culmination of the seething unrest which marked the appearance of Eddie Rector and Ralph Cooper some time ago at the Alhambra Theatre came this week when J. Gordon Dingle, attorney for Jack Trotter of the Amsterdam News, found that Rector and Cooper had gone into bankruptcy, declaring they were utterly unable to meet the liabilities amounting to about $4,000, it is alleged, with assets nil. At the time that Cooper and Rector were the opportunity to go into the Alhambra Theatre shortly after the appearance of Florence Mills and the Plantation Revue, Cooper sought aid from many friends and finally secured the aid of the writer, who was told that but for the scenery held at the Howard Theatre in Washington the dancers would be able to go into the Alhambra.
Jack Trotter was induced to lend Rector and Cooper $250, not knowing of the many other claims which came up against the team leader, and it is understood that with the moneys secured from the advertising manager of the Amsterdam News the boys were finally enabled to go into the Alhambra. Cooper suggested at the time of the loan that the money could be secured from the box office, but hardly any money went into that necessary department of the Alhambra, despite the appearance of Bill (Bojangles) Robinson on the bill. Funtle efforts to collect the money were made ever since the disastrous close of the Alhambra with the Rector and Cooper revue, and while all kinds of promises had been made for the return of the money, it has not as yet been forthcoming.
Cooper, up to the time he went into the Alhambra, had been driving around in what is claimed to have been his car. it is alleged, but it is claimed that the disappearance of this form of affluence indulged in by the dancer presaged his inability to meet the claim and the car returned to that unknown land where all good cars go in time of stress. So far, the dancers have failed to let Trotter or those responsible with them for the loan know just what disposition they intend to make in the matter since they have been given a clean slate through bankruptcy proceedings. They are appearing this-week with Ed. Daly's show at the Lafayette Theatre.

titled, "Union Says It Will Stand by Operators."
May I take this opportunity to assure you that at no time has this local shown discrimination, but that it was merely due to the reluctance on the part of your people and also the entertainment of thought that we were trying to keep them out. As a liberal minded organization we are at all times ready to stand by all men in the field, namely, "motion picture op-
erators." regardless of race, creed or color.
The feeling created heretofore that we refused to accept your men was simply a means of propaganda instilled by those who are anti-unionists. The statements regarding our refusal to allow your men to come in were absolutely fictitious rumors. Since we are out for 100 per cent unionism, you can therefore understand that we at no time would discriminate.
You may rest assured that it gives me, as well as the local us a whole, great pleasure to know that your former attitude towards Local No. 306 has completely changed, which assumption we have arrived at on the strength of your recent articles, and that you know our organization from a much brighter angle.
Closing this letter with the assurance to you that our fraternal spirit towards your boys is 100 per cent. I am.
Very truly yours.

Broadway Bound
WELL, folks, David Belasco has come through with the promised article "touchin' on an appertain't to" us in Liberty Magazine via "Lulu Belle," which has been a record success ever since it opened at the Belasco Theatre.
AND the one thing that stands out more than anything else to this writer in the article is the assertion of Mr. Belasco that he is "sold on the Negro." There's vast possibilities in those words, and we also notice quite some promise in what he has to say sayant Alex Rogers and play from the perspective of a producer which the great producer will read in the near future.
TRUE, there are wide openings for us to take Mr. Belasco to task like some of our thin-skinned folks who, because of a slip-up in dialect, see an attempt to poke fun at us. Tut. tut., David Belasco has said anything to lead us to believe that he things "Lulu Belle" something associated with the Negro, and the Negro only.
If he did not know at the start he is fully conversant now with the fact that "Lulu Belle" is a condition which exists among other races same as among us, for our learned writers took particular pains to tell Mr. Belasco that his show was one of the best on Broadway of our time. Lulu Belle up to suit the demands of the times. And the very novelty of the thing is what carries such a strong appeal.
AND why should we take Mr. Belasco to task because of this: "Boss-man, us craves to exercise our bones?" That, of course, means the rolling dice, and, knowing what we do of a certain theatre right now, we do of our churn girls slip into the mill in the areaway and the men "exercise their bones" not far from the spot, we do not believe that there was such a marked change because certain of us went to the Belasco to act in spots, and Mr. Belasco's knowledge of us as a whole out of tune, but why worry when it is possible that out of it all will come the true opportunity for that expression which we crave?
WE admit that for Mr. Belasco to know us in the short space of time he has been sold to us is somewhat ludicrous, but if he knows us well enough to give us a real chance after "Lulu贝拉" perhaps we will get the chance to the thin-skinned folk among us believe must be shown. But listen to Alex Rogers speaking to Mr. Belasco:
"We have our radicals. What people have not." But we of the people we must demonstrate our fitness for the better things before we can demand them. It is a place we must achieve from within ourselves by developing mertion, discipline, or posing as buffoons. Some clowns have achieved riches—but none is in the Hall of Fame. "The Negro has changed in his appearance, become ambitious, and he is demanding that his children fit themselves for the place he is trying to make for them. Our poets, musicians, playwrights and authors are struggling for recognition—but they are not fattering."
"But the Negro no longer looks to the Omnipotent for a miracle. He realizes that what he achieves must be from within, and he is striving—striving as never before."
MR. BELASCO says that he is convinced that Alexander Rogers speaks the truth. After that, why in the name of all that's holy must we continually rush into print and remind white for that we have not all been well BELASCO part of us, but as a part of any race? Of course Mr. Belasco thinks he is the first to show the Negro apart from caricature "and as he really is."
ROBERT LEVY gave us an opportunity to appear in dramas just as fine as "Luiu Belle" right here at the Lafayette Theatre, and few there are who witnessed "Mime, X," who the wonderful mannequin. Which did Negroes support the drama as they should have done, Lester A. Walton would have given us the chance to appear in dramas of our own race by this time. What Mr. Belasco has done is to present us in a way that made the pilgrimage to Harlem in those days, and if he is really honest with us and himself he would have seen then what he can only sense now. Sir Arthur Berrbohn Tree came all the way from Englewood to make efforts in the drama by being present the night the late Edward Sterling Wright appeared in "Othello." It would have done Mr. Belasco's heart good to have witnessed how an audience at the Lafayette Theatre presented an attempt at what he could not do, in the same race. This gentleman was made to understand that the time did not call for the buffoonery and ridicule which he attempted to put over in the presence of a distin-

LET David Belasco continue to learn and undoubtedly he will give us the chance we crave. The inconsistencies we find in his article in Liberty Magazine we can readily overlook, as the author of the American nation in its dealings with people of Negro blood. There are white men in higher places in the life of this country who can do simple justice to the Negro and give him a wider field for using the land, as the farmer doing it and our politicians are constantly coming before us with the slogan of "watchful waiting." If we must use such in another sphere of life, let us be consistent and apply it on Broadway, as opposed to the formalized narrative we allow David Belasco to believe that he knows the Negro after but a few months' contact with the cast of "Lulu Belle."

Robinson was conceded a distance of 25 yards in a distance of 100 yards by Bill O'Brien, says the dispatch, a former professional runner.

GOOD and NAUGHTY
Never Such Excitement as Is Found in "Born to the West"
"Colorado" Rudd, a cowpancher who had lived the rough life of saddle and gun, whose horse's hoof-marks had covered all the trails of the West from the head of the Panhandle to the snows of Montana, the colorful role which Jack Holt, popular Paramount player, enacts in "Born to the West," coming to the Lincoln Theatre for an engagement of four days, starting on Thursday. Holt has played many vivid human Western roles for the screen, but all admirers agree that, as "Colorado" Rudd, he gives his finest characterization to the screen. The picture is a visualization of Zane Grey's story and deals with an enmity between two men, starting from a fight in their schooldays and carried on in later years when their paths once more cross.
Thrills abound. There are some refreshing comedy moments, furnished by two real faceurs, Raymond Hatton and Tom Kennedy, remembered for their comedy work in "Behind the Front." "Art of the Paralel," a beautiful French player, and Marvaret Morris, last seen in "Woman-handler" with Richard Dix, supply the feminine beauty and romance. Daring escapes, terrifying hold-ups and a runaway stare coach furnish the pulse-quickening moments.
The supporting cast Includes such brilliant players as George Siegman, Edith Yorke, Bruce Gordon, Richard Nell, and a trio of college John Waters directed. The adaptation is by Lucien Hubbard. The production was made under the personal supervision of Hector Turnbull, associate producer for Paramount.
Deep Murder Mystery Gives Thrill in "Silence"
Which Comes to the Douglas for Three Days. Commencing Saturday
A luxuriously appointed drawing-room, three men engaged in heated argument beautiful girl of 17, a stream of reverent language in abuse of the girl's dead mother, a revolver shot, one of the men drops dead.
This is one of the tensely dramatic situations of Beulah Marie Dix's screen version of "Silence." a picturization of the celebrated stage success of the same name.
which will be shown at the Douglass Theatre for three days beginning Saturday next.
Who fired the shot? Not J. Warren, and yet Warren is convicted of the crime on evidence it has doctored in order to shift the blame upon himself. He is seceded to bang and, with the deal that he has rigid silence—he refuses to divulge the true story of the murder. Whom is Jim shielding and why?
H. B. Warner, who plays the featured role, that of the condemned man, also played the lead in the sensational Broadway stage production of "Silence." Opposite Warner is Vera Reynolds, who the role of his crooked pal, Harl Silvers, who is mysteriously killed by Reynolds. Booklake Fellows, Jack Mitra and Virginia Pearson are feature members of the cast, one of the strongest ever assembled for an picture.

Bathing Beauty Ball at Savoy Creating Interest
Beauties From All Parts of New York and Jersey Entered in the Contest
Nest Tuesday night, August 17,
the Savoy Dallroom will again
place forth with a unique affair
which is destined to add another
to its long chain of popularity.
This time it is the bathing beauty
ball during which a bathing beauty
contest will take place that from
a standpoint of interest can know
no equal in any other form of contest.
Excitement among the entrants
is running high and covetous eyes
are on the alluring rewards offered
by the Savoy management to the
winners. Foremost among the
prizes is a trip to Atlantic City
for the most beautiful girl.
She will be dined and fed for a
short week with a plenty
of expense at America's playground
and at this time of the year a
vacation like that is certainly worth
serving for.
To the second prettiest goes a hundred-dollar bill which, in itself, will keep Mr. Wolf away from the door quite a little time. Then there are plenty of ten-dollar bills and smaller prizes besides a hand-some imported gift package which will be given to each girl entering the contest. Girls from every part of New York and New Jersey have been given indications to a bevy of beauties, the like of which has never been collected under one roof before.
It is not yet too late to enter the contest and blankes can be had by applying to the manager of the Savoy, through the mail or by visiting the Savoy personally and securing an entry blank from any employee. The judges of the contest are being selected from among the prominent newspaper editors of the Harlem papers and every effort is being put forth on the part of the Savoy management to see that each girl is given as fair an opportunity to win as she deserves. If you are in the contest or are watching its thrilling moments from the audience you will indeed be gratified with the results of what promises to be the most exciting and gripping night of the year.

As told in our last issue, the place is being thoroughly renovated, and when the doors are thrown open to the public on Friday night,

Whitney and Tutt's Revue at the Lafayette
Popular Smarter Set Players Returning to Harlem After Being Away for a Long Time
The announcement of the return of Whitney and Tutt in their latest revue recalls memories of the days when as the Smarter Set Company the show with the popular comedians came to Harlem and set this part of the city by its ears. In keeping with the times and lack of that financial support which is so necessary to keep a big show going, the Whitney boys were forced to chop down and join the revue production element.
They will come into the Lafayette Theatre as the big attraction next week and we are of the opinion that things will continue just as bright. The Lafayette has met with a great deal of success in the presentation of revues and the foundation is laid for any which does not offer to hit it big. True, this will explode the theory of some that they are the ones responsible for the change of the times, but the truth of the matter is that about all the revues are hitting it big.

PASADENA. Culff, Aug. 9. (P. C, N.

Scenting a sensational murder mystery, four officers rushed to the scene and broke in upon a number of handcuffed men. nude except handcuffed men. eyes, "containing" others who were fully, even regally, clothed. The colored Elks were merely holding their initiation, and promised the police they would make less noise in the future.

"Mrs. Howard s Little Boy Garland"
Mrs. Howard had sixteen children, nine of them boys, and with one exception they have proven themselves orthodox offspring of the typical New England family, true as colored children can be to the traditions of a friendly community, which is to say that they were just about like all the other "kids" of the little Connecticut town in which they were born. It is the exception, however, with which we have to do. Everybody in town knew "Mrs. Howard's little boy," and liked him. Garland was the one meant when they said that. However, these thrifty and conservative old souls could not for the life of them in his lean graceful manner, his agile limb, his captivating smile, sor in the ambitions of his adolescent years.
Barring details, this is just what happened, Garland Howard, as a partner in the team of Howard and Craddock, became one of the earliest exponents of the modern stage dances. The team made rapid progress, and might have gone further had not the old spirit of 76 that is part of a New Englander's very existence not stepped in and sent the boys hastening into the war for democracy.
After war, then it was the wife, so that team went into the closed pages of history; Howard and Brown was the name of an act that began to be seen with increasing frequency on bulletins before inside the剧院. One after the other patrons who saw and heard their work told them how they should enjoy seeing them in musical comedy where their talents would have a less restricted chance.
Just about that time they heard of C. Smith's ideas, and in the conference room of the Colored Vaudeville Beneficial Association there was born a partnership that has become the production and the principals of "Eleven-Eleven," the show that Hurtig and Seaman, veterans in the handling of musical comedy, and among the pioneers in the Negro theatre, put into two of their theatres in succession in New York, and that Abe Erlanger pronounced upon first sight to be good enough for a tour of his distriment houses. The show with its fifty colored actors are playing at a Harlem Theatre. Incidentally, when Garland Howard goes home on a visit the follow townfolk in Norwich, Conn., vie with one another in trying to show how much they appreciate "Mrs. Howard's little boy."
Miss Snowden Gets Contract
Colored Cabaret Star Signs for Second Jewel Production
UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif., Aug. 9
(P. C. N. B.)—Carolyn Snowden, popular colored cabaret star of the Hollywood night life clubs, has been signed by Universal to appear in her second Jewel production.
The Sensation Seekers, a Louis Webert production from the story "Epiphany," Ernest Pascal, on which work will start next week.
Miss Snowden has just completed her part as maid in "The Marriage Clause," the first of the Jewel productions to be made by Louis Webber under her new contract with Universal. Francis X. Bushman and Billy Dove are the featured players, supported by a cast which includes Warner Oland, Harri L Garde, Andree Cheron. Carolyn Snowden and Oscar Smith, a colored actor who started in pictures at the Lasky studios as Wallel Rey's valet.
As the "Topsy" part in "Uncle Tom's Cabin" still remains unfilled, there is a strong possibility that Miss Snowden chosen for the coined notion. At least the consensus of opinion is that the "Topsy" characterization should be a natural portrayal rather than a black face substitution.
Carolyn Snowden received her first stage experience in San Francisco in 1823 in Sam Harris' musical comedy "Struttin' Along." Coming to Los Angeles, she became quite popular in the night clubs and cafes, heading several revues by Franchon & Marco. Before entering pictures she was the featured drawing card at the Club Alabam and more recently the Nightingale Cafe.

More Members Added to Sammy Stewart's Chicago Orchestra
Metropolitan Theatre Meeting Success, With Cary B. Lewis as Assistant Manager
CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 9.—The Metropolitan Theatre, 47th and Grand boulevard, will celebrate its fall opening Monday, Sept. 13, by adding three instruments to the Sammy Stewart Singing Syncopating orchestra. For four months Mr. Stewart will be the 'gang' have been entertaining the audience of this theatre with such satisfaction to the owners that last week he signed a year's contract for 1926-27.
The three new men start Labor Day, Sept. 6, making the orchestra the largest of any on the south side. Mr. Stewart promises some big things musically and will put on programs similar to that of the now famous Paul Ash at the Oriental Theatre in the "loop" since the installation of the symphony house and the joyful success. The stand out crowds in the lobby and on the streets have been the talk of the city.
Every member of the orchestra is a finished musician, trained to his finger tips. They rehearse daily and thereby are able to finish the patrons nightly a program of exceptional merit. Among some of the big number played were: "Tschalkowsky's Fourth" Symphony, "Paul Orrery's Tannahawke from Tannahawke, Faust and Alda. All the latest jazz numbers have been a part of the nightly programs and special ones on Sunday afternoons.
During the fall season, Mr. Stewart and his orchestra expect to take a "Trip Around the World" musically. This is being looked forward to with keen interest. At every night's performance a singing or dancing artist appears, and on Saturday afternoons pupils of the Hazel Thompson Davis School entertain. Under the guidance of Jack Hang, a seasoned theatrical manager, and Cary B. Lewis, his assistant since Feb 15, 1926, the house has made an enviable reputation

Daly's Revue Off to Another Big Start Monday
Jordon's Musicians Again a Big Part of the Week's Entertainment at the Lafayette Theatre.
"Fixin' to Leave," Ed Daly's latest along the revue line, opened at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday afternoon and got the usual big start by a "standing room 'only' crowd, which appeared as enthusiastic as the afternoon 'Shake, Rattle and Roll' breezed in to entertain Harlem.
Joe Jordon's band is a big part of the entertainment, as the boys play the kind of music that adds up to singing and dancing. Jordon belongs to the old guard and the stamp of superiority is on the stunt that he sends across the footlights.
The roster of leading lights with the show include: Leondis Simmons, Tim and Gertie Moore, Radcliffe and Radcliffe, Harry Lucas, Edith Spencer and Billy Andrews. A rollicking chorus of good lookers adds to the enjoyment of the show. Rector and Cooper are also on the bill doing their familiar steps.
Big Show Now in Its Second Week, With Added Features That Pleased With First Showing Here.
At the New Lincoln Theatre this week Howard: Brown and Smith go into their second edition of "Zigboo Land" and from all appearances this new edition offering bids fair; to duplicate the success of last week.
There were added features to the show that pleased immensely, and the same thing will hold good this week in the new edition. Although billed for a three or four weeks' run, the principals and others are putting forth their best in everything, done so fair.
They show with the intention of remaining such a long time at one of the local theatres bring forth their best in the last week. But Harlem has been good to the "7-11" group in the past and they are playing fair with their supporters by giving everything advertised.

Games Between Keenan's Stars Gives Lloyd a Team Into First Place Attract a Monster Thr
About seven thousand baseball fans saw Jim Keenan's Lincoln Giants wallop the Bronx Giants in a double-header at the Catholic Protectory Oval last Sunday afternoon, and the brilliant playing of the team under the management of John Henry Lloyd has naturally, attracted a great deal of attention.
Having returned to that place in the public eye they enjoyed years ago, colored people are more and more giving their support to the Lincoln and look with disfavor on the activities of others that had a tendency to interfere with the smooth sailing of the popular New York team.
The New York Age last week carried a story which, we are told on the best authority, was far from reflecting the true state of affairs where Nat C. Strong and Jim Keenan are concerned. Keenan will not consider dealing with Nat Strong in the future, and those who have given the popular Jimmie their support will send up a shout of joy, as Strong lost whatever hold he had years ago when he was forced out of basketball. Jim Keenan has gone out of his way to give New York a representative team in spite of many obstacles, and when he met John Lloyd in man and apologized to the Lincoln Giants the colored people of Greater New York felt that he made a move which would mean much to his team. That he made no mistake is seen in the able manner in which Lloyd has handled the team.
John Henry has brought the first essential to the Lincoln that gives promise of success, and that is harmony. He has taken material that others looked upon with disdain and whipped into shape a mithy good team. The only weak spot today in the line-up of the Lincoln comes from the mound, but we have every confidence in the youngsters' hurting and believe they will make good. It is hard to decision players and got them to fit into the perfect scheme of things in one season, and taking all in all, they have done nicely.
This week the Lincoln Giants will enter a five game series with the Cuban Stars which, if the former are successful, will put them in first place. If Lloyd can so

HILLDALE COPS FROM SILK SOX
HILLDALE COPS FROM SILK SOX
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 7.—The Hilldale Club staged another extra innning game at the Darby lot when it took the Daisies 10 innings to gain a 2 to 1 verdict over the Paterson Silk Sox. The game was a pitcher's battle between Bullet Campbell, the Boston butcher boy, and Frank Talcott, who was a collegiate star when he wore the blue of Yale.
The game, however, was marred by a serious accident that occurred in the 10th, inning, when third baseman Lou Zimmer of the Silk Sox suffered a broken leg when Robinson collided with him at third base. In this inning, Robinson, the first man to the plate, walked, Campbell sacrificed him to second, then Briggs hit to Talcott, who elected to make the play on Robinson at third base. The base runner had a good lead from the second play, and the ball reached Zimmer, about the same time and the baseman was unable to get set for the play, he retired the runner and then fell over. He was rushed to the Misericordia Hospital in a waiting automobile.
The Daisies put over the winning run in the 13th, when Otto Briggs led off with a double. Warfield bunted with sacrificial intentions, and Jimmie Eschen, who had moved in from the outfield to take Zimmer's place, fielded the ball, but first base was uncovered and both runners were safe. Thomas then laid down a bunt and squeezed Briggs over, with the winning run. Hilldale had a couple of opportunities to score as the game progressed, but the Sox fielded flawlessly at critical moment of the combat, with Peters and "S" Braun firmly scellinating. These two fielders accepted 21 chances without faltering. Braun went across second in the sixth inning and "filled" a base hit from the bat of Winters and completed the play for the third out as Mackey crossed the run.
Several extra base hits went to seed as the innings wore on. Warfield tripled with one out in the third and was out at the plate on an attempt to score after Peters had thrown Mackey out at first. Mackey tripled with none out in the sixth and failed to register. Peters also hit for three hases in the 11th with one out and was stranded. Campbell held the Sox to five hits and fanned six.

The Sportive Spotlight
BY ARTHUR E. FRANCIS
What is acclaimed by all as the best State open tournament ever held by the New York Tennis Ass'n came to a glorious close on Saturday, August 7, at the grounds of the E. & S. Tennis Club, up at West 146th street, New York City, before a very large and enthusiastic following of tennis fans, gathered from all the neighboring cities and states, when Ted Thompson, of Washington, D. C., national champion, again matched wits, courage and strokes with Eyre Saitch, of New York, recently crowned Eastern champion, and triumphed only after a battle of five noctite sets.
Play started on Monday, August 2, with one of the largest entry lists of contestants ever experienced outside of a national event, a total of nearly 200 entries in all events, with the veteran referee, Dr. D. Iverson Houge, in command, and the seven courts of the E. & S. grounds in tip top shape, and continued throughout the week under a blistering sunshine.
On Saturday, the day of days, when the finals of all events were scheduled to be contested, the day opened overcast, and many thought that a postponement was in order, but though it showered a little during one of the matches, the usual Honge luck manifested itself, and the sun came out and added a glorious climax to the end of a perfect week of tennis.
The field which included nearly all of the outstanding players of note gave some wonderful exhibitions of tennis during the week, and kept the fans kept up to fever heat throughout.
The feature match of the tournament brought together Eyre Satch, of New York, and Ted Thompson, of Washington, D. C., in the men's singles event, and like their recent meeting in Philadelphia, there was very little to choose between them when the smoke cleared away. In Philadelphia, Thompson triumphed in five sets, after Satch had shot his bolt at the beginning of the fifth set, and in their match on Saturday Thompson again triumphed, this time after Satch had lost heart when he saw a lead of three games to one in his favor in the deciding set steadily cut down by the stout hearted Thompson. The national champion did not play any better tennis than the Eastern champion, but his strokes were executed with a view of finality, the quick winning of the point, while the New Yorker, who had a bad habit of playing to the gallery, made many errors in an attempt of finesse of execution of his many strokes. Then Thompson's confidence in his ability to defeat the New Yorker, reflected in his every movement, with the psychological effect of undermining Satch's own confidence, Thompson played a good enough to win, but against Satch, the player he started service in the first set, and quickly ran into a lead of three games to love; Satch retaliated by winning his second serve at love, after Thompson had taken his first service at love. With Thompson serving, the fifth game went to defeat seven times before two sets by Satch gave Thompson the game for a lead of 4 to 1. Satch took the sixth game on his own service after deuce had been called twice on two nets by Thompson, then broke through Thompson's service for a count of 4 to 3 against him.
They each took one another's service in the eighth and ninth games. Saitch taking Thompson's delivery with three scoring placement aces, and an out from Thompson. Saitch then squared the count five games all by taking his own service and by some wonderful playing ran out the next two games for the set at 7-5. The Eastern champion had played some very good tennis, coming from behind at 1-4. The second set found Thompson again with the service, and by exceptional playing he quickly ran out the set for a win at 6-0, breaking through Saitch's service three times during the set. The champion made nine placement aces, and Saitch contributed seven nets and 11 outs, together with a double fault, a total of 19 errors.
Thompson still held the service at the beginning of the third set, and ran into a lead of two games to love, taking Saitch's service at love. The New Yorker squared the count by breaking through Thompson's service, and taking his own. Thompson, who was now going great guns, took the next four games for the set at 6-2.
The start of the fourth set found Thompson again holding the service, which he won, both players winning on their own serve up to the fourth game. Saitch then broke through Thompson's service, only to lose his own. Roth ben were now playing for the breaks.
With Thompson serving the ninth game, Saitch took the game after deuce had been called twice for a count of 6-4 in his favor; then he won the tenth game by two pretty sideline placements, a net and an out by Thompson for the set at 6-4, squaring the match at two sets all.
The fifth set started with players and spectators both keyed up to a high pitch. Thompson again led off with the service, but lost it, he, however, took Saitch's service after deuce had been called twice, the last point being a double fault by Saitch; the New Yorker then won the next two games for a lead of 3-1. At this point everyone thought that at last Saitch was to conquer his nemesis of the courts, but this was not to be, the old confidence came back to the champion, and he ran through the needed five games for the set at 6-3. Saitch fought, three of the five games going to deuce, but he fought on the defensive, as if he knew he was licked, while Thompson, behind at 1-3, took the offensive, and secured his first leg on the beautiful Savoy trophy, and the New York State championship with it.
Interest in the ladies from a New York standpoint were centred on Mrs. Frances Gittens, destined as one of the coming lady players of the Empire City, and to say that she did not disappoint her admirers is putting it lightly.
On her way to the semi-finals, at which round she was put out, she encountered and put out Mrs. L. V. Junior, of Philadelphia, No. 5 national ranking lady player, at 6-2, 6-1; also Mrs. E. Leonard, of New York, in two hard sets at 6-3, 7-6, 5 a victory which shows that youth will be served, for in a recent local tournament Mrs. Leonard won out at 6-3, 6-4. Mrs. Gittens was then put out by Miss Ora Washington, New York champ, only after she almost gave her friends heart failure, winning the first set at 6-4, and being ahead in the second set at 3-1. Miss Washington, however, let out a notch, squared the games and won out at 6-4, then breezed in in the third set at 6-0.
Another lady player of the Big City who caused trouble in the rap world was the mother of the real few promising lady players who has shown progress.
Mrs. Alston met Mrs. Conick, New York No. 1 player, and took her into camp in a hard match at 6-2, 6-3, then caused a surprise to many when she defeated Miss Alberta Ballard, of Philadelphia, No. 6 national rating player, at 7-5, 4-6, 6-4.
After brushing aside these two obstacles, in two of the hardest matches of the week, Mrs. Alston stood in the sole representative of the BLC club in the Indies' singles against Miss Washington, the present champion of New York. Miss Washington, however, showed her championship class by cleanly outplaying the New Yorker by a wide margin in every department of the game, winning at 6-2, 6-3, and securing her second leg on the Brathwaith trophy.
In the ladies' doubles event, Mrs. E. Leoon and Mrs. E. Alston represented New York, and lost to Misses Washington and Junior, of Philadelphia, at 6-1, 6-4.
The mixed doubles, which included quite a number of prominent partnerships, ended with J. Wilkinson, of Washington, paired with Miss Washington, of Philadelphia, defeating Tally Holmes and Miss A. Gant, of Washington, at 6-4, 6-2.
The junior event brought out some superlative tennis among the youngsters, and Masters E. B. Ashe, of Philadelphia; R. Wrel, of New York City and G. Norman, of Flushing, N. Y., showed enough to be classed as future greats. Master Ashe won this event from G. Norman, at 6-2, 6-2.
The tournament week included among the social events a dance at the Savoy on Wednesday night, whose Managing Director, Mr. Charles Buchanan, presented the Savoy trophy to the New York Tennis Ass'n. There was also a banquet and entertainment at Small's Paradise on Thursday, and a grand banquet on Saturday night at Craig's Dining Hall. Mr. Gerald Norman, Executive Secretary of the American Tennis Ass'n, acted as master of ceremonies and among those present were National Champions Ted Thompson, Miss Luhu Ballard, Tally Holmes, ex-National Champion Dr. Sylvester Smith, John Wilkinson, Miss A. Ballard, Asst. Corp. Counsel J. Watson, Capt. Joshua Cockburn, Rev. Chas. Martin, Dr. Rawins, Dr. Pottinger, Dr. Winters, of Pennsylvania; Dr. Reed, Dr. Banks, Dr. Hanson, Atty. J. Mercer Burrell, Secretary of the American Tennis Ass'n, and a host of others, several of whom made short addresses.
Much credit is due Mr. L. E. Spooner as Chairman of the tournament committee, also President T. E. Hanson and Secretary A. E. MacDowell, the latter doing most of the work, and last, but by no means without only Dr. D. I. Hoage, the referee, for a most enjoyable week of tennis.

HARRISBURG DEFEATED
HARRISBURG DEFEATED
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 5.—In a hurling duel that went twelve innings, Nip Winters was the victor over Sam Cooper and the Hilldale Club turned back Oscar Charleston and the Harrisburg Giants by the score of 4 to 3. Each team scored a run in the first inning, then Harrisburg went out in front when Cooper aided his own cause with a single in the fourth that chased Beckwith and Gamiz over the pan. The home team again tied up matters in their turn at bat on successive singles by Thomas, Carr and Washington and Robinson's sacrifice fly to Dixon. The Daisies put over the winning counter in the twelfth, when George Carr hit the left field fence for triple, and Carr scored on Robinson's slow, roller along the first base line. Six snapy double plays featured the contest, three by the visitors and two by the home team. Rapp Dixon featured when he captured Warfield's fly in the seventh and doubled Winters at the plate with a perfect throw to Gamiz.

Hicks and Garland to Open Symphony Club This Friday Night
Music and Entertainment Every Afternoon During Dinner Among the Features
This coming Friday night, August 13, will see the opening of the Symphony Club under the able guidance of Messrs. Lonnie Hicks and Clarence Garland, two well-known New Yorkers, who apparently know just what to give patrons of a place of this kind, if one must judge by the extensive preparations being made for the big opening.
The Symphony Club will be housed at 115 West 131st street, the purchase of the building being negotiated in March. Extensive alterations have been made at a cost of over $6,000 and it is inspiring to note that 9 per cent of this money went into colored hands. One of the rooms was decorated by David B. Costuma. A special kitchen, built out in the yard and far removed from the dining room, is a novelty that will surely serve its purpose, to say nothing of the two dining rooms with an aggregate space of 1,300 feet. The main dining room is made up of Roman stone, antique plastic ceiling, with Spanish lattice work effect.
The big opening night will find a la carte service in full sway, with dinner service thereafter starting Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock. Along with this there will be music and other entertainment every afternoon. Dooley Wilson, assistant with Peneton and Bairy Wiggs will comprise the singing trio, with Clarence Cummins, Harry Wiggs, H. L. Jeter, Lonnie Hicks and Leonard Saunders making up the instrumental part.
The upper dining room of the club will seat over a hundred comfortably, with no obstructions of any kind in the room and is most suitable for banquets, etc. Pantry, steam table and dumbbatter service are in hot rooms. After dinner, with music, dining and entertaining will be in order, although the place must not be considered a carbaret by any means.
A recreation parlor for men will occupy the basement, with pool, billiards, radio and the receiving of all sporting results being the features. John Knott, formerly of Jim Marshall's, who ran the well-known place on 33d street, is the steward, with Nathaniel Gavle, confidential man of the prize "Honest John" Kelly, having charge of the recreation department. Charlie Washington and Cassio Norwood will be the cashiers.

Cockrell Suspended and Fined One Hundred Bucks
ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. 5.—Taking the initiative among Eastern League managers, Ed. Bolden plastered a $100 line on Phil Cockrell and suspended him for five days when the Hildale pitcher punched Umpire Plackett in the third inning of today's game at the Bacharach Giants' Ball Park. Bolden's version of the affair was: "The attack was unwarranted and it is the policy of the Hildale Club to always discourage rowdy tactics and will not tolerate them on our ball club. As an organization we have been very lax in meeting out punishment to belligerent players who seek to intimidate umpires. In short, it is a matter for our commissioners. If the officials are unfair or incompetent they should be removed. The public supports baseball for its respective sporting quality, and a mixture of pugilistic display does nothing to enhance the game."
Braves Split Twin Bill
The New York Braves, formerly the Oriental nine, broke-even in two interesting games at the Jasper Oval on Sunday. The Spartans were crushed in the first encounter, the Oriental nine got not the bad end of the second and were nosed out by the score of 7-6 by the Opals.

Jack Dempsey Hissed and Black Challenger Cheered to the Echo When They Eased in to Witness Bouts That Saw Suggs Make a Chopping Block of Filipino Fighter Thursday Night
Lew Raymond refused to say a word when we cornered him last Thursday night after the big demonstration at Madison Square Garden, but Lew Raymond, for the first time to our knowledge, gave way to his feelings, took the over present cigar out of his face and hugged so heartily any person acquainted with Lew knew that something extraordinary had happened.

Chick Suggs won hands down from Pete Sarmito, the Filipino. Suggs hit the Filipino with everything and many believed that the colored fighter could have put Sarmito out did he so desire. At the present time the "Superior Nordic" is having the time of his life trying to prove his superiority by keeping Suggs and Wills out of meeting the men they ought to meet in logical contenders. There's only one way for the Nordics to remain superior, and that is to deny the colored brother a chance to meet them man to man.

Lew Raymond refused to say a word when we cornered him last Thursday night after the big demonstration at Madison Square Garden, but Lew Raymond, for the first time to our knowledge, gave way to his feelings, took the over present ogrant out of his face and laughed so heartily any person acquainted with Lew know that something extraordinary had happened.
Tex Richard, former backwoods scoutmaster riding on the crest of pugilist popularity because he staged two nights wherein colored boxes took leading parts, thought he would place another wedge in behalf of Jack Dempsey to night Gene Tunney last Thursday evening at his Madison Square Garden when, like a conquering hero, he led Dempsey into the Garden.
Lin Farley, chairman of the New York State Athletic Commission, who has been fighting for the chance to let Harry Wills go to f and knock Dempsey into Kingdon come, felt ill at case for about 10 seconds, for in that fleeting space of time he figured that Bickard was putting another one over on him and a house rising to give Dempsey a warm welcome was supposed to have been the signal for Farley to "lay off" and let Bickard go through with the long-term Tunney thing.
But the gods are with Irishman those hearts are true, for instead of the crowd rising to give Dempsey a vote of welcome it rose and issued, hooped and cat-called the heavyweight champion until a face turned red with mortification. Then came the capping of the elimax. Lew Ravmond and a another friends suddenly emerged if from nowhere accompanied Harry Wills, and that house almost as one and save the Black Panther" such a noisy welcome as a demonstration of joy in presence poor. Jim Parley was harassed, for it was all he did to keep from showing insistence and the sense of saturation he felt to see that those with him in his sup- port what is right and fair in feelings of the Boxing Com-
Baldoon and Brower ought to be been presented. Truth to all they been and were inferred from that ring the crowd had given them such a razzle to Governor Smith would kind their resignation the day and a timely act such that have been, because they are real right about face artists of the commission.

LEE STILL LEADS THE AMATEURS
Canada Lee, crack 135-pound ace of the Salem-Crescent A. C., boxer, added another victim to his long list when he knocked out Frank Tragill, of the Secured Heart A. C., after 1 minute and 16 seconds of the second round at the Coney Island Stadium last. Thursday night. From the opening gong Lee had the upper hand and had little trouble landing fierce blows, at the same time outgeneraling his adversary at every turn.
Jack De Louise, of the Seward Gymnasium, got the decision over Sam White, colored and unattached boxer, in their three-round tracas in the 138-pound division. White was as wild as could be and many of his hefty right swings missed their mark by many inches, some by more than a foot. However, White's fanning of the sultry atmosphere kept De Louise cool and calm so that the Seward boxer was able to get in several neat jabs to the body at the most opportune moments.
Stanley Cross, of the Trinity Club, scored an impressive victory over Phil Rose, of the Seward Gym when he got the judges' decision after four rounds of their 115-room clash. At the end of the third round the judges for some strange reason voted a draw and called for an extra frame in which Cross thoroughly outpointed his adversary. However, the vote was only 2 to 1 for Cross, one of the officials evidently still being a bit doubtful. The summary:
112-Found Class—Jack De'Donald, St. Bartholomew's Club defended Irving Permstein, Clark House, judges' decision, three rounds. Jimmy Burns, unattached, knocked out Leo Leguitus, unattached, second round. Time: 2 minutes 3 seconds.
115-Found Class—Stanley Cross, Trinity Club, defeated Philip Rose, Second Gymnasium, judges decision, four rounds.
125-Found Class—Pete Caesar, St. Bartholomew's Club, defeated Mike Samuelson, Norwegian Turn Society, judges decision, four rounds. Herman Reacher's Gymnasium, defeated Bill Wynck, Godwin Turn Society, judged decision, three rounds.
130-Found Class—Joe Sweeney, Glencoe A.C., defeated Jimmy Gary, Ozanum Association, judges decision, three rounds.
132-Found Class—Canada Leo Sa-Lol, President A.C., knocked out Frank Trugglini, Sacred Head's C. Second round. Time: 1 minute 16 seconds. Jackie Klein, Reacher's Gymnasium, knocked out Joe Garrett, Harlem Y. M. C. A., first round. Time: 2 minutes 3 seconds.
133-Found Class—Jack De Loutse, Sewad's Gymnasium, defeated Sam White, unattached, judges decision, three rounds.

The Gans-Callahan Fight Is Postponed
LOS ANGELES, Calif., Aug. 9
(P. C. N. B.)—A bad cut over the eye of Mushy Callahan has caused the Baby Joo Gans-Callahan match, scheduled for Tuesday night at the Vernon Coliseum, to be set back until the night of Aug. 24.
"Baby" Joo Gans, although anxious for the fight, which will be his biggest opportunity to date, was somewhat disappointed when informed of the postponement, but after considering all angles believes that an added two weeks will put him in much better shape.
The ticket sale indicates that the fight will be a sell-out, even though postponed for two weeks.
SAMMY BAKER GETS DECISION
Sammy Baker, the hard-hitting sergeant from Mitchel Field, won every round and the decision from Sailor Darden, who, despite his name, is a private in the infantry, in the main attraction of the soldiers and sailors' show at the Fort Hamilton reservation last Tuesday night. Baker forced the battle from start to finish, and, although he landed hard and frequently on the soldier-mariner, his blows had no great effect, and Sergeant Sammy was deprived of a knockout. in the scheduled 10-round semifinal. Eddie Earnbrook, army welterweight champion, knocked out Joe Zinck after 2:16 of the third. Sergeant Al Forman, army featherweight titleholder, outpointed Harry Brooks in eight smashing rounds, and Harry Duer won the verdict over Kid Ray in another eight. In the opening six Joe Curry outpointed Joey Huff.
If Baker's blows had no effect on Darden, it may also be said that the Sailor's terrific right swings did not seem to bother Sammy to any great extent. The Mitchel Field battler started off at a fast pace and finished at almost the same speed. Darden went into the ring with a bad left eye and it was not improved when Sammy got through with it. Sammy mixed these blows to the face with some fancy body-punching and when this failed to get results he sent wicked rights and lefts to all points of Darden's head, including the southern, or jaw. How Darden managed to stand up under the fierce punishment with which Baker was so lavish will remain somewhat of a mystery, but the Sailor came back after every furious rally of blows so willingly that the less observant members of the crowd of 3,000 thought him entitled to a draw.
The fact was that Baker did all the leading, landed the cleaner punches and landed oftener and on the score sheet was given every round, although Darden's showing in the seventh, eighth and ninth fell just short of earning him a draw for these sessions.
Western Auto Drivers to Pick Eastern Challenger
LOS ANGELES, Calif. Aug. 9 (P. C. N. B.)—For the purpose of developing a 1926 champion of the west who will challenge the outstanding driver of the east, the Western Race Drivers' Association of Southern California is planning a race meet for the last week of August.
Two race meets were held last year, in which Charlie Moore was crowned the long distance champion; Henry Lewis, the middle distance king, and Eddie Carlisle the sprint champ. Other drivers who placed or won races and who will face the starter's flag this year are Belton Hill, Bob Payne, Bill Hayes and Bill Bonner.
Not one of the drivers will be an odds on favorite, as there was less than a second's difference in their times for one circuit of the Ascot Speedway, where the races will be held.
Motorcycle and aeroplane races will also be a part of the program with Clifford Smart, the present speed champion, and Lincoln Bailey, his hard-riding rival, in a speed duel. Sergeant Maceo Sheffield, Los Angeles police officer, and "Ace" Foreman will pilot aeroplanes in races and do a number of stunts,

Jack De Louise, of the Seward Gymnasium, received the judges' decision over Jimmy Galllord, of the Salem-Crescent A. C., in one of the best skirts of a card of 10 amateur skimishes at the Golden City Arena, Canarsie, last Friday night. Do Louise, outpointed and outgeneraled his colored adversary throughout, Galllord showed well at times, but many of his punches fanned the air because of De Louise's cleverness in side-stepping them. They competed in the 147-pound class.
Bill Brown, of the Long Island K. of C., made short work of Murray Goldman, of Willie Beecher's Gymnasium in their clash in the 128-pound division, flooring -him with a series of rights to the jaw after two minutes and 22 seconds of the first round.

RUSSELL DAVIS, former secretary of the C. A. B. P. (and a very good one now of Chicago), is in the city for a short vacation, meeting old friends around the C. A. B. P. and the Emporium. He says there is no real billiard rooms in Chicago, as all rooms maintain card games. Therefore very little attention is given to billiards.

Preachers and Teachers Hold Eighth Annual Institute at Trenton, S. C.

and children.
HAMPTON, Va. Aug. 9.—One hundred and fifty Negro ministers — all eager to improve themselves — recently came together for the eighth annual institute at Bettis Academy, Trenton, S. C., held under the wise guidance of Dr. James Hardy Dillard of Charlotteville, Virginia, rector of the William and Mary College Board of Visitors and president of the Jeanes and Slater Boards, a man of broad sympathy and deep insight into the needs of men, women and children.
During the four-day institute the ministers received helpful, simple instruction in sermon-making; the handling of correspondence, including practical work in English composition; methods of improving individual and community health; pastoral services; church work, which considers the problem of improving community finance; the handling of church finances and records; and the reading of the BINe.
generous spirit was evident on every hand. The deeply religious atmosphere, as expressed in the early morning prayer meetings and in the singing of the Negro spirituals, was unmistakable.
The customary opening meetings for teachers and ministers were held in the morning at 11:15 o'clock and in the evening at 11:45 o'clock and in the college friends of Betts Academy brought
Those who gave courses included the Rev. Beverly D. Tucker, rector of St. Paul's Church, Richmond, Va.; B. C. Caldwell of New Orleans, field secretary of the Jeanes and Slater Boards; W. A. Aery of Hampton Institute; the Rev. G. Lake Imes, special assistant to Dr. R. R. Motton principal of Tuskegee Institute; Jackson Davis of Richmond, Va. field agent of the General Education Department; the Name of Tuskegee Institute, Ala. field secretary of the Jeanes and Slater Boards, and Dr. J. H. Dilbard
Many of those who attended the institute had been present in previous years. The ministers, as never before, showed their willingness to take part in the discussions and to express their own views on the problems which they thoe day by day in their difficult task of reaching vast numbers of people, help long many lines other than those that naturally radiate from the rural church.
In appearance, the men seemed more prosperous than in former years, although many reported that on account of the unfavorable weather conditions the farmers had had a hard struggle to raise their crops. They showed a spirit of friendliness and good-will which was heartening. They seemed to sense clearly the thought which has always been in the mind of Dr. Dillard and his associates, namely, that the conference is intended to bring some helpful information to those who wish to serve their neighbors in a Christ-like spirit and to express without any call or pretension, the desire of men to share their God-given blessings and experiences in true brotherly love.
The institute membership re-faced in the recovery of President A. W. Nicholson of Betts Academy, who through 40 years of unselfish service has served, with his devoted wife, the white and colored people of western South Carolina. The cooperative.

Hope to Bring Next Convention of Elks to New York City
All Factions Here Agree That Greater City Should Be Host to Antlers in 1927 — "Big Four" Lodges Hold Joint Meeting
At last New York Elks are working in harmony and unison towards one great object at the coming grand lodge sessions in Cleveland—that of bringing the twenty-eighth session to New York. All differences, all personal aspirations and all private quarrels that may have served to keep Elkdom somewhat divided in Greater New York have now been submerged and the battle cry from now on is "New York in 1927." and that battle cry will transcend any cry for exalted ruler or any other grand lodge officer.
The differences were finally fronted out at the meeting of the New York State delegation held Friday night at the home of Imperial Lodge No. 127. Robert P. Braddicks, chairman of the New York State delegation, obtained at that time positive assurances that the four big local lodges, Imperial No. 127, Monarch No. 145, Manhattan No. 45, and Brooklyn No. 32, together with all the lodges in suburban New York, would work as a one big thing, "New York in 1927." The matter of candidates will be secondary with the New York State delegation.

9. One hundred and fifty Neimprove themselves — recentth annual institute at Bettis under the wise guidance of Charlottesville, Virginia, rector College Board of Visitors and Glater Boards, a man of broad into the needs of men, women generous spirit was evident on every hand. The deeply religious atmosphere, as expressed in the early morning prayer meetings and in the singing of the Negro spirituals, was unmistakable.
The customary opening meetings for teachers and ministers were held in the morning at 11:15 o'clock and in the evening. Numerous white and colored friends of Bettis Academy brought greetings and helpful messages relating to the development of Christian living among rural people. Not a few influential men and women were present to endorse the work which Dr. Dillard in a pioneer spirit has undertaken, and to express confidence in present day Negro leadership. Dr. Dillard through the past eight years has brought to the rural people of South Georgia a message of hope through these institutes. He has urged Negroes to be themselves—their best selves. He has helped Negroes to discover the gifts which they can make to the building up a Christian civilization in America. He has by example shown men and women how to serve their fellow-men modestly and in Christian-like spirit.
What is said at an institute of this type is much less important than the spirit in which the words of hope and cheer and progress are spoken. What is done is less important than the Christian fellowship which lies behind the word and deed. One can only wish that such an institute might be conducted wherever men and women need to come together to exchange ideas and, in the spirit of prayer and humility, learn how to build God's kingdom in human hearts.
The 125 teachers—better prepared than ever before—who were attending the Bettis Academy Summer session, appreciated the opportunity of joining with the Negro ministers to find a way out of the maze of misunderstanding to a higher level of thought and action.
Quietly, effectively, lovingly, this Summer work at Bettis goes forward year by year. Sanity and Christian fellowship of a high order are characteristic of Dr. Dillard's work. Better homes, better schools, better churches, better farms, and better communities are the important by-products of this adventure into the task of building, here and now, the Kingdom of God in the hearts of the common people who are loved by the Father of all.

Where, ask the New York members, is there another city so qualified as New York? It has more Irishmen in it than any city in Ireland, more talians than any city in more news than can be found in Jerusalem, and more colored citizens than any city in America, and surpassed in its colored citizenship by but one city in Africa.
The commingling of all these racial forces has tended to submerge hatreds, caste proscriptions and religious bigotries, producing in Greater New York the highest freedom and absence from race prejudice found in any large city
of the American continent.
It is the ideal convention city, with unmatched transit facilities, halls and churches, wonder stores, beautiful parks. In addition, New York lays one more and very good claim to the 1927 convention; it has more members of the order than any other city in the country before. Its primary commercial and splendid living quarters, and its colored population is located in one of the most healthy and beautiful parts of the city, in Harlem.
"On to New York" and "New York in 1927" will be the slogans of every New Yorker at Cleveland this year.

By Edward Lowts, Age 12
In the mail we received this account from the Boys' Department of the Y. M. C. A. by Eric Mitchell:
"There was much excitement in the West 135th street Branch of the "Y" on the morning of August 6. The cause of all this unproar was the boys' preparation for camp at Pelham Bay.
"The group consisted of A. Robinson, C. Mitchell, S. Hawkins, J. Shriner, F. Johnson, C. Smith, E. Knight, W. Chavis, S. Willie, Wm. Jackson, Joseph Potter, Alfred Potter, Edward Cooper, Ernest Simmons, Carl Ball, R. Cooper, Willis Hanks and Thomas Skeeter.
"We hiked and hiked until the smaller boys that went with us became tired. After a fifteen minute rest we began walking again and continued until we reached City Island. A little less than two miles away from this point is where we stopped for the day.
"As soon as we got settled the boys relled: 'We want to go swimming.' We later ran into a large number of men and women from Harlem. Most all of them entertained us.
"It was a sad time when we were told to pack for home."
Imperial Band Elects Elmer Goodman Leader

White Methodists of South Render Substantial Aid
NASHVILLE, Tenn.—According to Dr. J. W. Perry, home mission secretary of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, that denomination directly and indirectly has contributed and secured for the educational program of the Colored Methodist Church nearly $700,000 in the last four years.
Among the principal items in this budget have been the erection and equipment of a building for Texas College at Tyler at a cost of $125,000; another, with its equipment costing $100,000; at Fairgood College, Arkansas; at building worth $40,000 at Boley, Oka, and one worth $10,000 at the Institute. Holly Stingins Miss; a dormitory worth $60,000; a $60,000 domestic Science building at Paine College, Augusta, Ga., and the projection of a $128,000 science building for Lane College at Jackson, Tenn. besides $30,000 in endowment for the same institution.
In commending on this assistance rendered by the M. E. Church South, which is the mother church of the C. M. E. denomination, Dr. Perry says: "Although our help to our colored brethren in their educational program has aggregated much more than half a million dollars in the past four years, we are not expending for them anything approximating what the church expended for its mission to the slaves in 1890 proposed to its strength in the ability to expenditure then was $160,000 annually. The meaning of all this our people should realize. We cannot minister to Africa and neglect the people of the same blood in America. The work we do for them here makes more effective our ministry in every foreign mission field."
Mother Zion Church
The Rev. Stephen G. Spotswood, pastor of the Gole Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church, Winston-Salem, N. C. was the preacher at Mother Zion Church last Sunday. A large number of visitors were present, including ministers who spent last Sabbath in this city en route to the Connectional Council, which convenes on the 11th at Philadelphia.
The Rev. Dr. J. W. Brown was the preacher at the Junior Church services. His sermon subject was "God's Out of Doors." Ezek. 34:35.
The Rev. W. A. Hamlin, pastor of Big Zion A. M. E. Zion Church, Pensacola, FL. preached at 8 p.m. Baptism and Holy Communion were attended.
Mr. T. D. Steele will address the Junior Church at 10.30 Sunday, Bishop J. W. Martin of Los Angeles, Callif, will preach at 11 o'clock. A sacred concert will be given by the Greenwood Jubilee Singers in the evening.
The sick: Rebecca Brumley, 2 West 133th street; Addle Johnstone, 201 West 138th street; Estelle N. Poote, Psr支伯斯医院, Dee Doe, 172 West 107th street; Cleo Stoney, 58 West 140th street.
Salem M. E. Church
The Rev. Mr. Butler, the first message bearer Sunday, preached on the subject, "He Is My Beloved and I Am His."
The Rev. Joseph Hill, the acting pastor, brought the other message of the day, under the subject, "There Is a Time to Keep Silence." The music and Literary program presented at the Lyceum by Miss Martha Harper was well received. The junior choir from Union Baptist Church, directed by Mrs. Reed, sang two choruses. James E. Harrison delivered a talk on the world's three greatest leaders and their creeds.
Dr. F. A. Cullen, pastor, in a recent letter, stated that he had reached his objective—the Holy Land. He has already travelled in southern France, the Mediterranean Sea, and Egypt. From Jerusalem he was to proceed to Athens, Greece, Rome, Italy and then back to Paris, which place he probably is in by now.
Rush Memorial Church
"The Magnetic Power of Jesus Christ" was the subject of the sermon preached by the Rev. Harold Kernon at the Rush Memorial Church, West 138th street, Sunday morning, August 8. In the absence of the pastor, Dr. Oliver, who is away on vacation, the Rev. John T. Matthews preached the sermon on Sunday night. His subject was "The Vision That Transformed."
Ebenezer Baptist Church
Services at Ebenezer Baptist Church. 165 West 131st street, Lafayette Hall, were very impressive all day Sunday. Dr. J. A. Whitted of Philadelphia preached at 11 A. M. Dr. Chas. D. Douglas, the pastor, preached Sunday evening.

"Who Killed the King of the Negro Underworld?" THE WHIRLPOOL
MAGAZINE SECTION THIRD SECTION
Read This First
While fighting with Richard Nelson, "Nero Brocker," king of the Negro underworld, is mysteriously killed with a dagger. Nelson, who had gone to see Brocker concerning the latter's insult to his fiancee, Laura Stevens, earlier in the day, was alone with Brocker in the room where he was killed. Nelson was arrested and charged with the murder. While in prison he is visited by his lawyer, Frank Greene, and later by Laura Stevens.
Nelson's trial, which started a few weeks later, was attended and followed with keen interest by all of Harlem. Several witnesses had given their testimony, both for the prosecution and defense, when Nelson's lawyer suddenly called Laura Stevens, the accused man's fiancee, to the witness stand.
Now Go On With the Story
CHAPTER FOUR
EVERY EYE in the court room was turned on Laura. She went gracefully to the stand without looking to the right or the left. Her modest dress of dark blue only heightened her beauty and dignity and her class showed in every movement. Obviously she had not dressed to produce an effect on the jury; she might have been going to work for all the attempt she had made at style. Most women in her position would have made up artfully like a schoolgirl, with plaits and ribbons down their backs to remind the jurymen of their own daughters at home. Laura disdained such artifice and stood forth for what she was, a young woman. Yet her poise at once impressed the jury favorably, and in the deepest silence her testimony began:
"Miss Stevens," asked Greene, "what is your relation to the defendant?"
"We are engaged to be married," she answered, slowly but clearly.
"Have you any male relations in this city?"
"None. My father is dead, and I have no brothers." "Then the defendant, as your fiance, is really your natural protector?" "He has the right to regard himself as such." "Miss Stevens, on June 16th, Mr. Ross, your employer, asked you to take some papers to Mr. Brocker's rooms?" "Yes, sir."
Why the Negro Has Lost Power in the Republican Party
By EDGAR M. GREY for cotton mills. The increase of the textile industry is one of the great indications of change in the South.
Then, too, the development of the hydro-electric power as an industrial facility must not be overlooked; for the swift flowing rivers of the South, with their capacity to provide millions of horsepower, have focused the attention of the industrial magnates of the nation to utilize their power as a source of industrial economy. Muscle Shoals is the most outstanding example of this phase. Along with these changes is the increase in the iron and steel industry, centred in Birmingham, Ala., a city which has grown from 36,000 in population to a little more than a quarter of a million in twenty-five years.
The problem of union labor in the North and the restriction upon the employment of women and children finds easy solution in the South, with its unorganized workers and lack of restriction upon the employment of children between certain ages. Tobacco, which was formerly grown in the South but processed and manufactured into smoking commodities, mostly elsewhere, has lately contributed to the reputation of Dixie as an industrial community. Besides all this, there has been large transportation of capital from Northern to Southern cities and wealthy Northerners have gone bag and baggage to reside and to carry on business in the South, because of its low state and capital tax.
We come now to a con-
From the year 1900 to the year 1926 the section of the United States which has undergone the widest possible change is the section beyond the Mason and Dixon line. This change has gone on year after year unnoticed by other sections of the nation, because the miasma of southern ignorance had met the nostrils of the rest of the republic for one hundred years and left a nostalgia, which has served to dull the perceptions of the rest of the republic to the capacity for change in the South.
The symptoms which are most indicative of this change are, the advancement from a purely agricultural community to an industrial and commercial area of no mean power. Between 1900 and 1926 the number of cities which have changed from small market cities for farm products to first rate manufacturing cities are 41, according to Mr. Frank Bohn, in a series of articles in the New York Times, April, 1925, while, as Mr. Bohn assures us, only 18 cities in the South were engaged in any kind of manufacture a little more than two decades ago.
Cotton mills have increased to a great extent, particularly in North and South Carolina. The total cotton crop for the year 1925 was 15,000,000 bales, raised on an average of 46,448,000 acres and cultivated upon about 6,448,433 farms. And while the figures for 1926 are not as yet available, some idea may be gained from the figures used as to the increase in the material, which, of course, increases the demand

"Did he tell you that Mr. Brocker was too ill to leave his rooms?"
"Yes, sir."
"Who was in Mr. Ross' office when you were asked to take the papers?"
"Mr. Binner. of the WEEKLY CHANNEL."
"The same paper by which the defendant was employed till a recent date?"
"Yes, sir."
"Following instructions, you took the papers to Mr. Brocker's rooms?"
"No, sir; I thought it was only a matter of pressing business."
"Had you known Mr. Brocker before?"
"I had only seen him once or twice when he came to Mr. Ross' office on business."
"Please relate what happened when you took the papers to Brocker's rooms as directed."
"I took them to the apartment house, found the flat and rang the bell. I was rather surprised when Mr. Brocker himself opened the door, as I thought he was sick in bed. He was fully dressed, and alone.
"He took the papers and sat at the table. I stood by him pointing out the places to sign. Instead of signing he snatched my hand and squeezed it. I broke away indignantly. Then he made insulting offers to me about dresses and diamonds and said I didn't need to be a poor girl. I attempted to leave the room: he sprang between me and the door, telling me how he had often looked at me in the office, and wanted to be my friend. I refused him and he grew angry and said I'd be his friend whether I liked it or not.
"He seized me. I screamed, but there was no one to hear. I broke away somehow and ran to the rear of the apartment. He pursued me closely. Then I found myself trapped in the kitchen and he was between me and the passage to the next room. He rushed at me. I picked up the nearest thing at hand, which happened to be a bottle of ammonia. I threw it at his face as hard as I could. He dodged it, but it smashed to pieces on the wall beside him and the glass and the ammonia were dashed in his eyes and mouth. Momentarily overcome, he staggered back. I opened the door and ran out."
Laura's narrative held the audience and plainly had its effect on the jury.
"Miss Stevens," said Greene. "when did the defendant first know of this attack upon you?"
"The next evening when he called. I told him about it just as I have related it."
No wonder then that Mr. Coolidge polled such an unprecedented vote in the South in 1924; no wonder then that Republicans assure us that "the Solid South has been broken"; no wonder that a Congress admittedly dominated by a Republican majority has failed the Negro in every attempt which he has made to have laws passed for his protection.
When the fact that within the past twenty years large contributions have come from the Southern cities to the Republican national campaign fund, from the pockets of leading Southern gentlemen, is taken into consideration, the process by which the Negroes' cheese of influence has been gnawed out of the Republican party basket is evident. It is a sorry fact that neither in the acquisition of big representative jobs in the Nation nor in increase of constitutional protection has the Negro gained anything in the past twenty years. He has, rather, lost in both of these fields.
The Negro ought to realize that the great political struggles which have taken place in the United States within recent years have not been waged between Republicans and Democrats, but between conservatism and progressivism without regard to party label. The Negro must realize this and change his political philosophy and outlook. He must vote as a Negro, using as his common denominator race and certain disadvantages from which he suffers commonly. He must vote for men and measures, which after all, is the dominant and deciding political consideration of all other Americans. This human and common-sense program must be embraced by him if he would survive; for the sentiments which bound parties and party leaders to him in the
"You didn't hesitate?"
sideration of the influence which all this economic and industrial change has had on the outlook of the upper classes of the South: and hence, what shifting has been undertaken in its political ideals and its party alignment. Every American schoolboy will assure you that the great difference between the Republican and Democratic parties is the same as exists between a rich and a poor man. If we accept this homely explanation of party difference without bothering to enter high arguments of political philosophy, we are forced to recognize that in direct ratio to the increase of wealth by the upper classes of the South will be the decrease in differences in political ideals regardless of party, and a consequent desire for change in party support and alignment. For the economic status of a group will and must dictate its political ideals.
The South underwent nearly two generations of bankruptcy since 1860, and its policies, political and economic, were dictated by its beggar status. Since then, wealthy Northerners who have moved South and Southerners themselves who have become rich because of the new boon are agreed that there are more ties which bind them into a common class than heretofore.
Ex-President Taft was the first Republican President to recognize the need for the new alignment; and since that time the Republican party's attitude towards the Negro has been a reflection of the new understanding.
"He was naturally in a rage. He took his hat to rush out of the house. My mother and I held him back at first, begging him not to do anything rash, but he said it was his business to protect me and he would. He would not stay: he left the house. The next morning I heard of the murder."
"That is all, Miss Stevens."
It was now the prosecutor's turn. Many of the spectators thought there was no use trying to shake a girl like Laura, but evidently he was about to try it.
"Miss Stevens," he began deferentially, "when you took the stand you disregarded the immunity of your sex and frankly gave your age as twenty-four. You admitted that you were born in New York, that you are a commercial high school graduate, and that you have been in the business world four years or more. Now, do you mean to say that a young woman of your intelligence and experience would not know what she was doing when she went to a man's rooms alone, especially when that man was a cabaret keeper?"
"I have told the truth," she answered quietly.
"Then, after a life spent in New York, you had no idea of Brocker's character?"
"Not definitely. I did not know him personally and had never been in his place."
"You expect these gentlemen to believe all that?"
"Yes, sir; to the same extent that they would believe their own daughters in a similar position."
At this the jurors sat up noticeably, and the prosecutor saw that he had better let Miss Stevens go.
The next witness for the defense was Mr. Charles Binner, advertising manager of the WEEKLY CHANNEL. Binner was a trim, spare, dapper young man of thirty, brown-skinned, with sharp eyes and features. He was supposed to be a witness for the defense, but before he concluded he had the defense gasping.
He said that he was in Ross' office when the message came, and corroborated what Ross and Miss Stevens had said concerning the telephone message. Greene was then through with him, and the prosecuting attorney rose with alacrity. He did not touch the testimony regarding Brocker's message, but plunged at once into the subject of Richard Nelson.
"Mr. Binner, you were employed in the office of the WEEKLY CHANNEL at the same time as the defendant?"
"Did you ever notice any signs of the defendant's hostility toward James Brocker, prior to the murder?" "Yes, sir."
Pittsburgh and Wylie Avenue
ALTHOUGH business in general is on the down grade, many things are happening in this city to keep the colored population active.
North Side and East Liberty come in for their share of publicity in the recent vice crusade by a committee of mixed denominations. Luther Zimmerman was accorded the title of Czar on the North Side, while the East Liberty magnate is unnamed or unknown.
The conditions protested against are not new, or of recent development. They have existed in the sections named for almost twenty-five years, to the writer's knowledge. In recent years, however, they have spread out over a wider area and affected the homes and lives of innocent and decent families. This expansion has been more noticeable to this writer in the vicinity called the Hill district and that famous thoroughfare known as Wylie avenue.
It could not be truthfully stated that houses of prostitution are greater in number today than they were under the "open town" Hays administration. But the effect is more noticeable because there is no attempt on the part of colored citizenry to segregate prostitution, whereas, prior to Wm. A. Magoo's first administration, there existed what was known as the "red light district" on Second avenue, Colwell street, Poplar alley, Sachem alley and the lower part of Wylie avenue. North Side was fairly clean and East Liberty was in the making.
Civilization and Culture Count--Not Racial Stock
drawn from so-called "intelligence tests." Those supporting the 'Nordic' myth have often been prompted by dislike of certain non-Nordic strains. Those opposing it have given velled expression to their resentment that certain races were looked down upon by the older immigrant stock." However, according to Mr. Gino Speranza, author of the volume "Race or Nation," the important thing for the future of America lies not in the assumed "superiority" or "inferiority" of the newer immigrant stocks, but in the differ

"That is all. Miss Stevens."
"Yes, sir."
past have been superseded by a harsh economic program which only recognizes self-interest and self-security.
MISSOURI PLANS
SOLDIER MEMORIAL
WASHINGTON. D. C.-A meeting in the interest of a statewide movement to erect a memorial building to colored soldiers, on the campus of Lincoln University, Jefferson City, Mo., was recently held at Hannibal, Mo.
Lincoln Institute was founded in 1866 by colored veterans of the Civil War, and was created a university by the general assembly of Missouri under the administration of Governor Arthur Hyde, largely through the work of Walthall Moore, a colored member of the House from St. Louis.
For many years the colored people have looked forward to a memorial building on the campus of the university in honor of its founder and the colored soldiers of the state. The present movement seeks to erect a modern brick and stone memorial building to cost approximately $50,000.
Lightning Strikes Twice
PARIS, Aug. 9.—Lightning today struck and injured Mme. Villevielle, of Lepuy, who afterward dragged herself home. While she was entering her kitchen lightning struck and killed her husband and mother, who were sented at a table.
WASHINGTON, D. G—In a recent discussion of the immigration policy, Roy L. Garis and V. F. Calverton raise once more the question of racial "superiority" and "inferiority"; and an unbiased observer says that the first writer adheres to the old norm of the "Nordics" while last maintains that it is a sake to confuse the problem immigration with race prejudices. The observer continues by saying: "Many erroneous and misleading conclusions have been
EDITORIALS --- SPECIAL ARTICLES REAL ESTATE AND FINANCIAL ADVERTISEMENTS
This was a new development, and a murmur ran through the court room. If a previous enmity could be established, there was small hope for Dick Nelson.
"What caused you to think that the defendant hated James Brocker?"
"He wrote several scathing articles against him and tried to have them inserted in the paper."
"Did the refusal of the editor to insert these articles cause the defendant's resignation from the staff?"
"I don't know."
"Was the defendant's hostility toward Brocker especially bitter?"
"It seemed to be."
"Did you ever hear him say anything which showed a purpose to injure Brocker?"
"Weli, one day when we were sitting at the office window Brocker passed by in his car. Nelson struck his fist on the desk and said, 'That man ought to be shot.'" At this the audience gasped again. Things were looking black for Nelson.
"Did you ask him why he said that?"
"He said, 'Never mind, you'll see. He'll get his, all right, and I'll see that he does!'"
The room was absolutely silent. The prosecuting attorney stood with his hands in his pockets, as if satisfied with the point he had made. The jury sat open-mouthed.
After that the testimony was practically finished. The few witnesses who followed added nothing to what had been said. The attorney for the prosecution at length began his argument, dwelling heavily on the point of premeditation and the fact that Nelson was found on Brocker's body.
Greene did his best, and made a good, ringing speech. He spoke of Nelson's past life at home, school and college, his good standing in the city, his love for his fiancée and the extreme provocation offered him by Brocker.
Then the judge charged the jury, as usual, telling them to consider the testimony rather than the lawyers' arguments. The jury left the room and were gone for what seemed a long time. At length they filed out and informed the court that they had reached a verdict.
"What is your verdict, gentlemen of the jury?" asked the court.
(To Be Continued Next Week)
prosecute. And so conditions went from bad to worse, until today it is not uncommon for a young girl to live a life of prostitution between Fullerton and Logan streets on Wylie avenue, while her parents represent the socially elite four or five blocks east—on the same avenue.
The cause for the gradual expansion of this condition on the avenue has been laid at the feet of the ministry, the press, the legal profession—and the politicians. No doubt these elements should come in for their share of the blame. But the people themselves, while claiming to be democratic in their reasoning, have sat silently by, waiting for some courageous crusader or calamity to wipe out the prostituted organizations which continue to grow systematically.
Failure to organize a protest against the underworld practice has evidently been accepted as an approving signal. And today it is not unusual to hear a bootleger speak of "his right" as compared to the "rights" of a prostitute or dope peddler. Dollar chasing has become a mania, and is even today holding firmly in its clutches many of our professional men and female beauties who, in their early teens, gave promise of a successful, yet honorable, life.
versive. The matthot that seeks to gain time for the nation to absorb the large masses of aliens with different traditions before the immigration bars are again raised must seek its justification not on the grounds of fictitious racial 'superiority', but on the realization that too large masses of unassimilated aliens may become a danger to the social and political organization of the United States.
Do What You Please!
Recipe for Long Life
Those who live longest do what, they please, eat what they please, and drink what they please, in the opinion of Michael Fallon, going on 90, who lives at 53 Preamble avenue, Paterson, N. J., "I started chewing tobacco when I was 16." he said, "and I even take a mug or two whisper when I can mug it."
"Were they inserted?"
"I don't know."
"It seemed to be"
"What was it?"
"What was his reply?"
By JOHN L. CLARK
(Preston News Service.)
Mayor Magee abolished the "red light" districts on the advice of reformers, and the owners and inmates of those resorts paid fabulous prices for quarters in various parts of the city. Abolition of those districts worked a hardship on the police, as well as the decent families residing in the same district with the prostitute. Police dared not raid until they secured evidence, and evidence was hard to get. Neighbors could protest, but in protesting could not supply sufficient evidence with which to
ences in point of view, tradition and social and political background of the peoples from southern and eastern Europe.
"Two hundred years ago Daniel Defoe, in his 'True-born Englishman,' went to no little pains to show his fellow countrymen, who at that time were scornful of 'foreigners,' that they were in fact a mongrel race, having in their veins the blood of Romans, Britons, Celts, Scots, Danes, and various Germanic tribes. This is true today of most of the Americans who are descended from the earlier immigrants. There has been a constant blending of bloods. The important thing is that at no time during the early history of America was there a sufficiently large influx of persons with alien traditions to undermine or overthrow the civilization and culture developed here. There have been changes and modifications, to be sure. But none has been sub

White Girl Tells Fantastic/Tale
(Preston News Service.)
Greensboro, N. C., Aug. 9.—That she circulated the report that a young man had choked her, made her take a pill and threatened her life early last Wednesday morning "just to excite my neighbor girl friend," is an admission made by Miss Virginia Holladay, white, 16-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Holladay, of Pomona, in a letter received by the Daily
Corona an Ideal Place to Live
Corona is located in the County of Queens and is a part of Greater New York. Among the principal thoroughfares Northern boulevard—old Jackson avenue—is the most important highway from the Queensboro Bridge to all sections of the North Shore of Long Island.
Corona is blessed with a large number of beautiful homes, consisting of one and two-family houses of brick and frame and in most cases with all improvements. The social and health conditions are ideal. There is in Corona a very fine tennis club with a well kept court, in 45th street, also a community center, in 50th street near Northern boulevard. These, together with the Aldridge Players, a dramatic association, and bathing and boating facilities, give ample opportunity for pleasure, recreation and enjoyment.

Boston Has Two Poor Men's Banks
An interesting statement appeared in a recent newspaper informing its readers that, although 59 white banks failed in the State of Georgia during the past two months, the eight or nine banks conducted by Negroes in that State remained solvent. After reading this statement one casually is reminded of the banks conducted by Negroes in the State of Massachusetts. While there are no regular banks or trust companies, as we know them, which are Negro owned, there are two cooperative banks conducted by Negroes in Boston and, as far as we can learn, these two co-operative banks are the only two Negro-conducted banks in the State of Massachusetts. There are approximately 220 co-operative banks in the State and nearly 50 of them are in Boston. Numbered among these are the South End Co-operative Bank and Eureka Co-operative Bank. The former is situated at 805 Tremont street and the latter at 936 Tremont street.
Before going into details relative to the growth of these banks it is necessary to find out something about co-operative banks, which can rightly be called "the poor man's bank." and are rigidly inspected by the State at intervals. In the first place, one can join a co-operative bank by paying in as low as $1 per month. This one dollar is really an installment on a share valued at $200 which will mature in about 11½ years. All co-operative bank shares are $200 each. Now you can figure out how much money you will have paid in during 11½ years at $1 per month and see what the return to you will be. One can buy up to 40 shares. Now suppose you decide that you will pay into the bank $5 per month for that five-year-child; when he gets to be 17 or thereabouts he will receive from the co-operative bank $1,600—which will help him to go through college and fit him for his life's work. Five shares at $200 each can be paid at the rate of $5 per month; six shares at the rate of $200 each, payable $6 per month, will be worth $1,200 when they mature.
There is this also about co-operative banks, you can withdraw your money at any time by applying to the bank. On the other hand, however, there is a small fine of about two cents per month if you are tardy in paying your monthly installment
The South End Co-operative Bank, $06 Tremont street, began business November 5, 1921, and at the close of business in October, 1923, according to the report from the Massachusetts Bank Commission, it had assets of $107,569.18. The rapid stride of this bank has been commented on publicly by Mr. Swain of Swain, Corpenter & Nay, who has been called "the father of co-operative banking in Massachusetts." The directors to the end of October, 1923, were: Edgar P. Benjamin, president; Milfred V. Benjamin, J. M. Burrell, E. D. Cooke, W. J. Fulcker, C. N. Garland, C. H. Greene, Jesse Goode, treasurer; J. B. Hall, J. H. Madison, I. L. Roberts, E. Z. Roundtree, A. P. Russell, T. G. Schuyler, C. J. Shepherd, S. A. Tasco, and G. A. Tell.
The Turekna Co-operative Bank,
at 1936 Montreal street, began business on September 1, 1910. In its report to the Commissioner of Banks it had assets of $28,890.50 at the close of October, 1923. The directors at that time were: G. H. P. Ganaway, president; David E. Crawford, treasurer; J. O. Crede, Walter Foster, W. H. Hamilton, W. A. Hemingway, F. N. Johnson, S. L. Merchant, H. W. Pinn, J. P. Shelton, R. A. Simmons. A. W.

Avoiding Collision, Man Injures Girl
Forced to swerve his automobile suddenly at the corner of Aldus street and Hoe avenue Saturday, as he was about to turn into Hoe avenue at that point in order to avoid a collision with a truck. Norman L. Jones, 19, white, 238 Butts avenue, Clason Point, ran the car on the sidewalk and struck Winifred Rovan, 10, 1001 Falle street. The child was taken to Lincoln Hospital, where her condition is described as serious. Jones' car ran up the curbing at the street corner and forced the Revan girl against an iron fence fronting a house there. The car tore away about four feet of the fence and careened back into the roadway. At the hospital the girl was said to have sustained concussion of the brain, fractures of both thighs, contusions and abrasions.
Policeman Schulz arrested Jones, Magistrate Douras of Morrisonia Court held him without bail for hearing.
HOWARD'S STADIUM NOT A FIRE MENACE
WASHINGTON, D. C.-Howard University officials have sent to the Secretary of the Interior a full and complete report covering the criticism of the District Fire Marshal, reference to which appeared in daily and weekly newspapers of Washington last week, regarding the new athletic field and stadium stand at Howard University. In the reply of the Howard University officials, it is stated that the Fire Marshal's report "is in error.
"Howard University's Athletic Field stands are in the class of frame construction which the underwriters and insurance companies class as 'mill or 'slow burning construction, which has been highly acceptable, even for buildings with inflammable contents, and the greater percentage of the country's mills and factories are of this type of construction," the report states.
Chicago Judge
Restrains Binga
CHICAGO, Aug. 9.—Great Lakes Lodge of Eks went into court last Saturday to restrain Jesse Binga, South Side real estate dealer and president of the Binga State Bank, from foreclosing on an alleged past promissory note of $4,600 which officials of the lodge had failed to take up at maturity. Judge Hugo Pam, before whom the lodge officials sued for an injunction, granted the officers' plea and issued orders that Mo. Binga nor any official representing him be permitted to interfere with the operation of the lodge and its subsidiary business at 3672 Michigan avenue.
Fifteen persons were drowned in New York and vicinity Sunday. One of the victims was Charles Melasee, 23, of 2411 Fifth avenue. Malasee's body was washed ashore at Rockaway Beach. Physicians said he suffered a heart attack while in the water.

Harlem Representative of
According to W. Burke Harmon, president or the Harmon National Real Estate Corporation, there are ten commandments to be followed by the successful investor in real estate, as follows:
1. Ask about time tables and location.
2. Investigate the building restrictions.
3. Inquire about the permanence of the improvements which are installed.
4. Have curiosity about your future neighbors and the class of people who are purchasing.
5. Investigate the developer as well as his development.
6. Remember that if the necessity ever arose for unavoidable delinquency in your payments or forfeiture of your property you would be helpless. Inquire about the history of the developer, in such circumstances—whether he would help you find a buyer for your holdings.
7. Think of competition. Remember that the developer is your strongest competitor. Inquire about his ability to complete his sales.
8. Find out about play space for children and the educational, social and recreational surroundings.
9. Buy within your means. Do not buy installment property for speculation.
10. Choose carefully only of the best, as you would with any other investment. Be sure that your investment is worth holding over a period of years.
Poughkeepsie Girl Wins Scholarship
Miss Grace Peterson, who graduated with honors with the 1926 class of Poughkeepsie High School, has just been notified that she was one of the winners of the state scholarships to Cornell University, through competitive examinations taken on June 5, 1926.
Miss Peterson made a Class A rating of 243½ points and stood a close second to a white boy who also made Class A. with 253½ points to his credit. Only five contestants in the entire state successfully met the Cornell tests, and Miss Peterson, who is only 16 years old, was the closest runner-up to first place. She will pursue the regular A. B. course, after which she will study medicine.
She is the daughter of Mrs. Sadie Peterson, librarian at the Government library in Tuskegee, Ala.

Wanted--A Candidate for Congress
Wanted--A Candidate for Congress
INDICATIONS are that Emanuel Hurtz, designated by the regular Republican organizations a week or two ago as the candidate for Congressman from the Twenty-first Congressional District, will not be acceptable to all, nor nearly all of the Republican voters in the district. Already it is rumored that at least one other Republican will oppose him in the primary election Sept. 14, but this will hardly prevent him from winning out in the primary.
IN ORDER TO WIN in the Nov. 2 election, though, Mr. Hurtz will need the united support of all white and Negro Republicans in the district and we doubt seriously if he will be able to get it, especially in the white election districts. While Negro voters are outnumbered by white voters in the Congressional district, it is probable that they would cast the largest block of votes for Mr. Hurtz, unless—
AN INDEPENDENT NEGRO CANDIDATE enters the race. Why shouldn't a Negro enter the race for Congress? Why shouldn't he get the united support of all Negroes—Republicans and Democrats—in the Twenty-first Congressional District, which embraces nearly all of the Negroes in Harlem? Why shouldn't he enter and win?
POTENTIAL NEGRO VOTERS there are in the district, far in excess of the white voters, which, together with the few white voters who might also vote for a Negro independent candidate, would insure victory, regardless of party affiliations, if they would enroll and vote for a Negro. There is no need to wait any longer for Republican or Democratic fair play in the matter of a congressional candidate. If either party wanted to see a Negro elected to Congress, both would nominate Negro candidates in the same election. White Republicans vigorously assert that a Negro should be elected when a white candidate is in the field, knowing full well that white Democrats and Republicans will unite against him. When a white Republican again succeeds in getting elected, the Democrats will run a Negro and the game will go on indefinitely, and prevent the election of a Negro even when Negro voters outnumber the white voters in the district. A straight ticket is not always a straight ticket.
THEREFORE, the time has come for Negroes to enter a Negro candidate for Congress and support like the Italians support and elect Congressman Fiorello La Guardia, as a Republican, Socialist or Independent.
An Object Lesson
NEGROES in Harlem should learn a quick, easy object lesson from the Porto
EDITORIAL PAGE
Ricans living between 110th and 120th streets, and between Second and Manhattan avenues, who on Sunday launched an organization for the protection of their community interests. It has been estimated that about 40,000 Porto Rican and Spanish speaking people live in that area. LIKE NEGROES in Harlem these Porto Ricans have neighbors and neighborhood enterprises conducted by persons not necessarily of their own race. There is absolutely nothing wrong with such an arrangement in a free country where citizens are supposed to engage in business and live wherever they please.
THE PORTO RICANS, believing that there was enough of this freedom to go around, began to engage in business themselves and solicited the patronage of members of their own race with success and such of their neighbors as wanted to patronize them. Their business competitors didn't like this very much and the ill feeling existing between them is given as the underlying cause of the race rioting in that section about two weeks ago. THUS, Sunday saw the organization of the Porto Rican Brotherhood of America for the advancement of their political and economic interests.
Is Coolidge Slipping?
(From the Atlanta Independent.)
This is a question that is being often asked by people of every class in this country. In most any group or class of men you meet, the question naturally ups. is Coolidge slipping? That is to say, the President losing his hold on the American people? It is not denied that Mr. Coolidge has been the most popular President the country has in two generations, and it is quite natural that people should wonder among themselves whether his popularity is on the increase or decrease. The question is a hard one to answer, and the logical determination of the question depends very largely upon by what standard is his popularity measured. it is hardly fair to say because certain Senators who were friendly to the President lost out in their reason local issues and conditions entered largely into the primaries. In Illinois, the defeat of Senator McKinley was charged largely for friendliness to the President, when in truth Illinois has been a World Court state. The late Senator McCormick was numbered among the ablest and most uncompromising preconceptions. And it must not be forgotten that Senator McKinley beat Mr. Smith in 1820 by less than one thousand votes. And another thing, Mr. McCormick was not a statesman after the heart of the party machine in the state. These are the things that cut deeper in the Illinois result than the popularity or unpopularity of the President. In Pennsylvania where Senator Pepper went down, the liquor question entered into comon with Mr. Kinley, of Illinois, was the victim of the party machine's spien: Party machines do not always take ability into consideration—efficiency but little ice. What they want is a rubber stamp man to do what they say: A man who has conviction, and will take his orders from the hosts and execute them faithfully.
Out in Iowa where Senator Cammings went down it was a question of sectionalism, or a question of self-blockism, where the people were largely deluded to self-interest. The people out West are largely drunk on vagaries, and believe that the Government owes them something. They think not of the country's good, but of sectional advantages. And any people laboring under such a delusion approach every question with a closed mind, and are not capable of thinking independently and wisely of national questions. So after all, when the national situation is analyzed, there are but few who can decide whether the President is slipping backward, or rolling forward. There has been no issue between Coolidge and the people. Then another thing, we must be into consideration that Mr. Coolidge is institutional President. That he recognizes the fact that our Government is divided into three-coordinate branches, each charged with separate and independent action, without interference with the other. Following this policy the President is not trying to run Congress, or dictate to the people who should represent them.
The colored man is a factor in the equation and he thinks the President is slipping because he has not given the race an outstanding appointment. They forget the fact that the race has not asked the President for an appointment as such. That there is no organization among us, no concerted action, no general understanding to march on the President, and present our rights to public place, or places in the way that he cannot ignore us. We forget that duty precedes rights and that every right carries a corresponding duty. The President has not always done what the Negro would have him do, no more than he has done what the white man would have him do. We admit in common with the majority of the Negroes that it was a political blunder for the President to sign the Segregation Bathing Beach bill in Washington City, but how many of us, approached the President and pointed out to him the error of his way? Coolidge is like any other man. He is human, likely to make mistakes, and does blunder as other men blunder: "to err is human, to forgive is divine."
The President may be slipping, but we are not willing to concede it. We do not know what his attitude will be in 1928. We do not know whether his friends will press him for a third term, but we do know of one truth, that Calvin Coolidge is a sound, safe, and sane leader; means well if he commits error; honest, patriotic, and above reverence; honest to be served. From race standpoint, do that to be kinder, better than Calvin Coolidge. There are many eminent men in the Republican party fit for President. Among them are Charles Evans Hughes, William E. Borah, James W. Wadsworth, Dave Reed and Nick
BOOK REVIEW
"Bursting Bonds"
"BURSTING BONDS," an enlarged edition of "The Heir of Slaves," by William Pickens. Boston: The Jordan & Moore Press.
"T THE first edition of this remarkable life-story of Mr. Pickens, which he gives as a representative of the descendants of the 1000,000 slaves who
of the descendants of the 3,000,000 slaves who were emancipated in the United States in 1865, was published in 1911. The additional chapters cover the last twelve years of his life. The author calls the history of his life a common one, in that it is typical of many people of Negro blood. His experiences may be noted as such—nevertheless, the grit and pluck with which he endured unusual hardships in his struggle to secure an education would mark him as an uncommon member of any racial group.
"Of Negro and Indian descent, William Pickens was born in Anderson County, South Carolina, on Jan. 15, 1851. His ma-
tress is a comical and a ludicrous phantom."
Unembittered.
"During Mr. Pickens' 45 years he has suffered from oppression, segregation and Jim Crowism in its most hateful forms and yet he has remained singularly free from the indulgence of hatred or resentment. He has the sanguine gift of humor, much of which sparkled throughout 'Bursting Bonds.' The story of his boyhood should prove an inspiration to all ambitious youth: the experiences of his manhood should serve to awaken the American conscience to present injustice which is delaying the true progress of the Nation.
"To advance your life," the author states, "is but to push forward the front of your battle to find the same inspiriting struggle still... I have been impressed, not that every single thought, and deed in the world is good, but that the resultant line of human life is in the direction of righteousness, and that human life and the world are on the whole good things."
E. Burton Ceruti
Born at Nassau, in the Bahamas, Edward Burton Ceruti came to the United States at the age of five years, receiving his education in Shaw and Howard Universities, then studying at Brooklyn Law School and obtaining the degree of bachelor of laws from St. Lawrence University. Mr. Ceruti was admitted to the bar of California in 1912, where he has taken a prominent place, especially in the defence of Negro rights. He has been a leading member of the Los Angeles branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and is a member of the national Board of Directors. Mr. Ceruti has been a prominent member of the Elks and Knights of Pythias.
Longworth, but we believe in the bridge that is at least most reasonably safe from experience.
Pulpit, Press and Vice
In these desperate days which convert yesterday's church deacon into tomorrow's hijacker much is being said about the cause for such a rapid transformation. Prohibition seems to be the goat. Politicians are to be seen or every vacant stump telling their adherents that Volstead's idea was all wrong and the Eighteenth Amendment is one that cannot be enforced.
Many dastardly crimes have been committed since prohibitory laws became effective. But then, too, dastardly crimes have been an historical part of every generation since records were first kept; the crimes are more noticeable today than yesterday because the Volstead administration has aided in the creation of more wealthy or notorious men from our own small circle of acquaintances and friends. On account of the probable or actual intimacy with the people involved, we naturally, take more notice, and consequent interest, than we would if the people were further removed from our social or industrial sphere.
All of the blame for the increase of these crimes should not reasonably be laid at the feet of prohibition. The criminal element operates in other industries or traffic different from illicit liquor manufacture and distribution. And it is in these "other" traffics that the pulpit and press have suddenly and disastrously gone blind.
Prostitution has been on the increase since the war period, when young and inexperienced wives and mothers found themselves dependent upon their own resources. At this point the press and pulpit adopted an attitude of tolerance that today almost amounts to approval of the most degrading condition that can befall any race or nation. That same attitude is being maintained today in the majority of instances, and where such is not the case, only a feeble effort towards connection is being made. The flapper craze and petting mania have progressed amazingly while we who should reckon with consequences have sat by, unconsciously giving our approval by our silence in the matter.
Crusading editors and fighting preachers seem to have been replaced by the college graduate trained to assemble words, and the mercenary theologian most interested in the "one-tenth" earning power of his flock. In fact, there are a large number of journalistic disciples who pride themselves on their ability to keep secret the manner in which social members take the downward grade. While some ministers advocate a single moral standard, or attempt to console heartbroken parents with the information that "men do not expect as much from girls as in former days."
One writer has described conditions at Fort Benning as a "smoothing volcano." We therefore join the N. A. A. C P. and the voices of a thousand other citizens who realize the threatening danger in an urgent request for a quick removal of the 24th Infantry from the confines of Georgia to a more congenial clima.
Entirely too much attention is being paid to the immediate dollar. Too much emphasis on the good graces of the prosperous middle class and the military and dinero and touring parties with the growups, and not enough interest in the
"Of Negro and Indian descent, William Pickens was born in Anderson County, South Carolina, on Jan. 15, 1851. His maternal great-grandfather was a Cherokee Indian, and his parents were poor but respectable and hard working farmers who knew the bitterness of the peonage system. The mother was typical of that fine body of Negro motherhood of the county districts whose main ambition until today is to educate their children. The boy's extraordinary love for study was likely inherited from this overworked young brown mother who passed away when William was 13 years of age.
From Cabin to Yale.
From Cabin to Yale.
"Virtually bound out to avaricious landowners in Arkansas, the willing father could do but little for his children. In order to secure necessary funds, the young man was compelled to labor as an errant boy, skiff-ferman, factory worker and a mixer of concrete in a railroad camp. His ambition and progress as a student from the little one-room Negro schoolhouse, "where the chief fountain of academic knowledge . . . was the famous old 'blue-black speller'" to Yale University, where he won the Henry James Ten Eyck Oratistical prize, and later the Phi Beta Keta, reads like a romance
—more interesting in that it is a true one. Of his ambition to win the Ten Eyck prize, Mr. Pickens says: "I had noticed that when I did my classwork among the best, more curiosity was awakened than when a Jew or a Japanese ranked among the best. The surprise with which I was taken struck me as due to a lack of expectation in my fellows, and I would succeed in order to cause others to expect more of the American Neroy.
"Of his earlier school days, the author says: "I had kept at school for eight years past because I felt sure that I could do. I had never failed to solve a problem in all my lessons, and I had never tackled one with the feeling that I should fail. . . . I had overcome many difficulties, never doubling that I should overcome. He adds, however, that "mere empty
children looking on. Too much pretension, and not enough courage to take definite stands on issues that are vital.
The writer has in mind a crusade against vice now going on in Pittsburgh, in which the Negro papers are not taking part—nor are the Negro ministers. They do not claim to be in sympathy with vice, and yet they fear to openly oppose it. They are neutral. What is true in Pittsburgh is true in hundreds of other cities.
The press and pulpit are to serve any purpose whatever, and the morality cannot do a better work than uphold the morals of our race, and in upholding these morals, be prepared to wake a relentless, unmerciful campaign against any and all persons who seek to destroy it. Concentrate on the objective, forget about individuals.
Prohibition has no doubt presented its quota of evils, but the lethargic mentality and cowardly spirit of our press and pulpit have aided in the increase of these evils in all proportions.—P. N. S.
Remove Negro Soldiers From Georgia
The national office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has written a letter to President Coolidge, urging the chief executive of the nation to use his official power as Commanding Chief of the Army and Navy to have that portion of the Twenty-fourth Infantry, now stationed at Fort Bening, Ga., removed to what it terms "a civilized community, where decency and justice are more prevalent than appears to be at Americas, Ga." This indictment against the State of Georgia, as to its place in the scales of civilization, came from the N. A. A. C. P. after it was learned that a white man had shot and killed a private soldier in "cold blood," and nothing had been done about it by the civil authorities.
We quite agree with the views of the N. A. A. C. P. on the question of the advisability of removing the Negro soldiers from such environment as is naturally to be found at Fort Benning, Ga. It is highly advisable that immediate action be taken on the part of the Government to get these men out of Georgia before something happens. These men, because of repeated insults by the white people there, are being gored to desperation. The Government owes to these men all the protection within its power. To refuse their call for relief is to heap injury upon insult. Let it not be said that Uncle Sam failed to do his duty toward these colored soldiers.

"ILL WIND" BLEW
SOMEBODY GOOD
WASHINGTON. D. C. After the Negro natives of Wattling Island in the Bahamas had added in rescuing the 68 members of the crew of the British steamer "Port Kemble," which recently grounded and sank on a coral reef four miles off the island, they salvaged a large portion of the $1,500,000 cargo, consisting of clothing, automobiles, musical goods, food, and beverages, following which they held a "Thanksgiving" celebration. It is said by the survivors of the wreck, who owe their lives largely to the native rescuers, that a motorcycle was the only article which the natives could not seem to understand. Paris liner, silk hosiery, foodstuffs, wines, and even pianos were quickly seized by the natives and put into immediate use.
Florida Has 71,871 Illiterates
Mrs. Cora Wilson Stewart, head of the National Commission of illiteracy, lectured to the teachers of the Florida A. and M. College this week. Accompanying Mrs. Stewart were: Superintendent Cawthon of the State Department of Education. President J. R. E. Lee presented Mrs. Stewart. According to Mrs. Stewart's statement, Florida has 11.811 illiterates, with Leon County having 2.854 and Tallahassee county having 1.945. She informed her listeners of the advances for the mitigation of illiteracy that had been made in other States and just what would have to be done in Florida to assist in its reduction.

KNELT by the window at nightfall,
when the world lay dark and still,
And the thought of a thousand little lives
Came drifting over the sill.
I thought of the lives of the forest,
And the lives of the field and sea.
And I felt the force of that silent Love
That created them . . . and me.
I thought of God as a Father,
And I felt the mystic bands
Of that brotherhood of living things
Which was moulded by His hands.
Till the rabbit in his burrow,
And the robin on her nest.
And I, who knelt by the window
Before I went to rest.
Seemed one in my sight for a second, And Heaven filled the space Where I knelt by the window at nightfall, With the night-wind on my face.
Keeping Fit
By E. Elliott Rawlins, M.D.
EVERYONE desires to be well in order that he or she may be free from pain, discomfort and economic loss. A desire of all human beings is happiness and comfort. Every person is only the means to the end.
A desire of all human beings is happiness and content. Economic prosperity is only the means to the end.
Ability to make money means work, either brain or muscle, and fear of chronic sickness with its debility, deformity and physical handicap has both a conscious and a subconscious reaction upon the nerves and brain of the individual.
Personality is therefore changed by this subconscious fear of being unable to make a living, because of pain, debility or deformity. Cheerfulness, enthusiasm, optimism, initiative and independence are the qualities of a pleasing personality, and these qualities of normal mentality fade away or are not developed by a continually conscious or subconscious fear that a permanent sickness is about to occur.
Such people become chronicickers. They are unable to stand in or discomfort when it really comes.

There are many such individuals, who not only know what personal hygiene and community sanitation are, but who are continuously fearful that they will make some error of omission or commission in this matter of keeping well. Their minds are ever perturbed by a vision of germs, illness and debility, and so their everyday existence becomes strained by an ever present fear of a contagion or infection, with its attendant illness and handicap.
Such people become neurosthetics. Their minds and nerves are oversensitive to the vigilitudes of everyday life. Even the weather affects them. In neurosthetics and overexcited individuals their sufferings can only be relieved by moral help rather than medicines. They need understanding, encouragement, and an educational redirection of the conscious and subconscious forces of their minds.
The best thing for them to do is to forget germs, disease, pain, discomfort and debility. If they do then nervous indigestion will fade away, headaches will stop, neuralgia and neuritis will never occur, and a spirit of general well-being will dominate them

For the first time in New York Schroeder's "Emperor Jones," an impression of Eugene O'Neill's play, was heard on Sunday night at the Stadium. The Philharmonic Orchestra, directed by Henry Hadley, gave a rendition of the number that was favorably received. Because of the descriptive character and the easily recognizable influence of Negro music and Negro jazz with the heavy drum beat throughout this musical setting, "Emperor Jones" has gained considerable comment.
