ANTI-GARVEY OFFICIALS CHARGED WITH BURGLARY "LOVE BURGLAR" GIVEN 70 YEARS TO REPENT GEO. WESTON AND HOLDER SAID TO HAVE Colorful News "Movies" By THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE THE tumult and shouting of convention and conclave are o'er; the triumphant chieftains have wended their conquering way homeward, and even the beach at Atlantic City, just off Indiana avenue, is almost a desert. The brethren and sisters have resumed the even tenor of normalcy. To everything, from janitorships to pastorates, from street cleaners to construction superintendents, they have returned, whether in Fords, Rolls Royces or drawing rooms, to the day's work to give battle to snow, ice, and cold during the coming Winter. What constructive results accrue from the camp-meeting days of August? Does the race formulate some definite plan to conquer the proving wolves-of constitutional indifference, segregation, educational negligence, Jim Crowish, or residential restrictions? Are old folks' and orphans' homes planned, by which the fleeting graces of Need may be succored? Is some great corporation formed which, besides producing something which America needs, will give employment to anxious Negro youths who are crying for a chance to be up and doing? Or are the sick and afflicted aided and comforted, that theirills may be assuaged and theirpassing days made more consoling? We think not. Economically speaking, the dimes and dollars paid for steam engine coal and automobile gasoline going chilly into the coffers of the "boss man" of America, from whom it came, make him even more secure in the close check he constantly keeps upon the aspiring blacks of America. A few useful lives are "snuffed" out from the fearful strain of convention life; night life reaches asbestos heat, and the Negro again faces America with winter waiting to give him the chilly "How do do?" This is the result of conclave plaitime. Even the Klan has a definite anti-Catholic--anti-Jew. anti-Negro program--but the brother, he is there because he is there, and he burns up enough potential force to move the State of Georgia up above the Mason and Dixon Line. And, while he is performing the burning process, the "big bosses" are figuring out how to make the world safer for themselves and "safewell" for the beaded and badged ex-delegates of the fraternal year ending in September, 1925. More Education DR. JOHN J. TIGERT, United States Commissioner of Education, frankly says that "The South, on account of conditions following the Civil War, has lagged behind some other sections of the country in economic progress, and has neglected the education not only of the whites, but also of the Negro. Clarity would have been better preserved, we think, if the Commissioner had said that the South has neglected the education of all the Negroes and also some of the whites. Be that as it may, however, it is a fact that semi-franciful efforts are now being made in the South to speed up education for the Negro-along agricultural lines, of course. It has just been "discovered" that the Negro can raise cotton, sweet potatoes, tobacco, corn, and spuds; that he has been the victim of a poor credit system; that he needs managerial training, higher standards of living, better school facilities, etc. In feverish haste the South is cooperating to bring about a vocational system in agriculture, to teach the Negro to raise wheat, oats and swine, lest he raise railway fares again and begin another gross northward, where he is not so well understood as he is in Dixieland, and, hence, is given increased advantages, just because "up North they don't know enough to keep the Negro in his place." Meanwhile, even in Georgia, they are admitting that it is not right to practice open peonage. They admit, too, that long since the South has developed habits of indolence General, Local and National News.....1, 2, 3 (Athens Pilot Page, Second Section) Feature, Section and Special Articles.....17, 20 Nearby Briefs.....7, 14 Sports.....13, 13 Amusements.....10, 11 News of Churches and Frater- nities Deaths.....15 News of Brooklyn and Long Island.....8 News of New Jersey.....6 News of Society and Women's Activities.....5, 6, 7 Marriage Licenses.....5 Financial News.....18 FERTILISING INDEX.

Monday morning, by Magistrate Maurice Gottlieb sitting in the Washington Heights Court. In fear of being charged with violating the Mann Act, Theodore Cook, the complainant, who lived with the Knighton family with a woman said to be his wife, was not in court and has disappeared. it is said. He was released over the week-end from the hospital. After the defendant's attorney had appealed to the court that his client he admitted to bail, Knighton was called to the bar to explain why the revolver was available in the apartment. It was his service revolver and is registered at the police headquarters, he said. Cook and the girl that he brought here from the South, it is alleged, had been living with the Knightons for several months as man and wife. He and the young woman became engaged in an argument and Mrs. Knighton asked them to be more out. The roomer became indignant, she said, and shouted out vile and vulgar epithers at Mrs. Knighton. The landlady then informed him that her husband, who is also a member of the 368th Infantry, was at Camp Smith and warned him that if he were there Cook would not attempt to take advantage of her. Upon the mentioning of Knighton, Cook it is alleged, became more abusive. Having some fear of the man, Mrs. Knighton summoned policemen from the Fifteenth Precinct and had him ejected from the apartment. All of his possessions were put out on the sidewalk. When the police searched him for the key to the premises they could not find it and it is now believed that he concealed it in his mouth. With a warning to move on the police left the scene. A few minutes clapsed and everything was apparently all right. Cook re-entered the place with his key and was standing in the door to Mrs. Knighton's bedroom when she next saw him.

Probably the best informed person today on the cost of caprice and folly is James Smith. 27, alias "Broadway," who lived at 205 West 135th street, and gave his occupation as elevator operator and lingerie salesman. If every charge pending had been pressed against Smith he might have been sentenced to serve ten times the seventy years in prison that were meted out to him by Judge McIntyre in General Sessions Friday for his preying upon defenseless women. The charges against the man included assault, robbery and rape. Obscene Letter Writer Sent to Bellevue Hospital for Observation Obscene Letter Writer Sent to Bellevue Hospital for Observation Smith, who was tried specially for robbing Mrs. Rose Davis, 134 West 112th street, passed most of his time in the courtroom reading from a pocket Testament. He also clashed this book when he stood up for sentence. After his conviction, Judge McIntyre was told there were 11 other indictments against the prisoner, all for crimes of substantially the same character. One indictment contained an additional charge to the effect Smith shot the compliant through the cheek because she screamed on being attacked. Assistant District Attorney William C. Dodge then said the Dis Obscene Letter Wr Bellevue Hospi Oliver Dillon Said by Employer to Be Mentally Unbalanced and Temperamental Oliver Dillon, alias "Chief Johnson," confessed writer of five thousand obscene letters to prominent white women, was ordered sent to Bellevue Hospital for thirty days' mental observation by Federal Judge Knox last week. Dillon pleaded guilty to the "poison pen" charge following his arrest. A letter from Dr. Aspinall Judd, 137 West 69th street, Dillon's former employer, was shown the court by Dillon's attorney. In it Dr. Judd characterized the man as one "mentally unbalanced, temperamental" and a literary lion "in his own estimation." Judge Knox requested David P. Siegel, Assistant United States Attorney, to ascertain whether there was a Federal institution to which Dillon might be sent if judged insane by Dr. Means Gregory of Bellevue Hospital. If Dillon is pronounced sane, Judge Knox said he would impose a heavy sentence on him. Attorney Siegel, following Dillon's plea, had asked for minimum sentence of ten years.

TOURISTS BARRED FROM STATE CAMPS Colored tourists will not be permitted to use the state camping sites along the National Pike between Baltimore and the Pennsylvania state line, according to Director of Public Works John N. Mackall. This action followed the complaint of Mrs. C. S. Alexander of Stephenson. Va., who was refused admittance to the state free camp site at Frederick, Md., and appealed to Director Mackill. The director replied that the camps "have the same status of hotels and you know colored people cannot use the hotels in this state." iter Sent to tal for Observation Former V. I. Governor Sued for Libel A libel suit for $10,000 damages against Admiral Sunner E. W. Kittelle, former naval governor of the Virgin Islands, was filed today in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia by Lucius J. M. Malmin, first American judge of the district court of the islands. Judge Malmin charges that Admiral Kittelle published, libelous letters in a national magazine and a Virgin Islands newspaper saying that "Mr. Malmin was dismissed from office for cause by Governor Oman." This statement, the plaintiff contents, implies that he had been guilty of a corrupt or dishonest act and that the temporary naval governor of the islands had authority to dismiss a judge holding office by life appointment and not subject to the jurisdiction of the governor. Judge Malmin was deposed by Governor Oman in 1921 during his absence in the United States. By a decision of the U. S. Circuit Court, approved by President Harding, Judge Malmin was sent back to the Virgin Islands. He resigned, however, as a protest against the "domineering, autocratic, and tyrannical" tactics of the naval administration. His resignation has never been accepted at the White House. Admiral Kittelle, who succeeded Admiral Oman as governor, attempted unsuccessfully to gain from the Colonial Council of the islands power to depose Judges Newmyer and King, James Hamil ton Lewis, and Arthur F. Odlin are counsel for Judge Malmin. PRINCE OF WALES AT "BLACKBIRD" REVUE LONDON, Sept. 29. The Prince of Wales attended tonight's performance of "Blackhirds," a Nego revue, featuring FLORENCE Mills.

Failed to Prove Fortune Was Told Mrs. Jane Prior, Arrested by Policewoman, Released Mrs. Jane Prior, 2400 Seventh avenue, was released from a charge of telling fortunes by Magistrate Gottlieb in the Washington Heights Court Monday when testimony by the prosecution failed to prove any criminal violation of the law. Policewoman Mary Vaughn, of the 13th Division, was the complainant and only witness for the state. She testified that she had gone to the Seventh avenue apartment and donated 50 cents on request after singing and praying with a small congregation. At the end of a prayer service which lasted over four hours, it was alleged by the policewoman, Mrs. Prior entered the room where she was alone. Mrs. Prior, she said, was garbed in a white dress with a large crucifix suspended from her neck. The officer said that she was then given a list of numbers and told to bring them back at another date.

GEO. WESTON AND HOLDER SAID TO HAVE REMOVED PROPERTY Case Adjourned Yesterday Until Next Week—Statement Issued by One of Accused—Court Crowded With Adherents The imprisoned hand of Mercurs, Garvey dealt a heavy blow to his "enemies" last week, when George A. Weston and Wesley McD. Holder, president and secretary of the anti-Garvey faction of the Universal Negro Association, were arrested and charged with burglary on a complaint of Uriah Gittens, executive secretary of the Garvey faction of the association. With the arrest of Weston and Holder it is believed that the cloud of trouble which has been hanging between the two conflicting groups will soon burst. The outcome of the present charge against the defendants along with the injunction that has been granted the anti-Garveyites will decide, which body is to be recognized as the real Universal Negro Improvement Association. The complaint signed by Gittens reveals that 20 men were implicated in the alleged taking of papers, books and $200 from the office building of the association in West 135th street. It is alleged that the group raided the Garvey headquarters early Thursday morning. When Holder was first arraigned before Magistrate Francis McQuade in the Washington Heights Court he was denied bail. Early Friday morning an attorney for him appeared before the court and asked that bail he set for his client. After a brief argument, bail was fixed at $2,000. Weston was not arrested until Saturday, and he was held also in $2,000 bail. The move of the anti-Garveyites to obtain all properties held at the present time by the Garvey forces, as ordered by the recent convention here, was bitterly denounced. When the case was called Tuesday morning for a hearing attorneys representing the two defendants asked for an adjournment until Sept. 30. It was vigorously opposed by the attorney for the complainant. After both sides had argued for 15 minutes, Magistrate Maurice Gottlieb granted the adjournment. Attorney Weber, of the Weber & Jacobs law firm, associated with Attorney Richard L. Cunningham, represented Weston and Holder, Gilton, who was not in court, was represented by Attorney Lawrence Brown. The court was crowded with members of both factions. Some women were robed in their black-cross uniform. They showed signs of being tensely interested in the affair. Holder gave a reporter of The (Continued on Page 2.

A more powerful Skin Bleach (Continued from Page 1) trict Attorney would accept a plea of guilty to one of these indictments in consideration for dropping the other ten. This offer was accepted by Counsellor Oscar Garrett, attorney for Smith. Smith was arrested on August 20 by Detectives Tierney, Scott and Ross of the West 123th street station after he foiled the police for over eight months. He owned a high-powered automobile and always was well dressed. in giving out the drastic sentence Judge McIntyre said: "You are a hardened and vicious man, a potential murderer, and I've no doubt you would have committed murder to accomplish your end," said the Court. "The crime of which you were just convicted was committed just before the Baumes law went into effect. I must sentence you under the old law to 20 years. But on the other charge, to which you pleaded guilty, I am going to set you out of the way for the balance of your natural life. I will make it 50 years." Under the two sentences, Smith will have to serve actually 51 years and eight months, after which he will be on parole for another ten years. WILL OF WEALTHY ARKANSAN_PROBATED (Preston News Service).

Officers Under Arrest (Continued from Page 1.) Amsterdam News an exclusive signed statement that explained his defense. It is as follows: "While passing 56 West 135th street, on Thursday morning between 5.30 and 6 o'clock, and on looking up I saw light in the building and persons moving about. I decided, therefore, that I would go up to make inquiries relative to the whereabouts of the illegally functioning officers since infunction papers were to be served on them during the day. "As I entered the building through the door leading from the sidewalk, I found a gentleman by the name of Alamandarez buying a Negro World from Greenidge, the watchman. There were two or three other persons besides those individuals and I asked Greenidge for the other watchman, since from him I hoped to get the information I desired. Greenidge immediately ordered me out of the building because, as he claimed, I was an anti-Garveyite. He was very insulting and abusive, and for this I called his attention to the fact that I was the secretary general of the association, and as such I demanded respect. "At this point Mr. Holder, the other watchman, arrived and after a heated discussion Greenidge slipped out of the building and returned with two policemen, whom he asked to throw me out. But the officers refused after I showed them my card as secretary general of the association. They said they would not interfere unless we became disorderly; thereupon they left the building. "By this time a large crowd gathered and among whom were THE EDITOR many members of each faction of the association. Mr. Uriah Gittens was among them and on his instructions, after being advised by someone, ordered Greenidge to cause my arrest. George A. Weston, president general of the association, who was arrested on the following day, did not arrive on the scene until the excitement was nearly subsided. "The whole affair is just a plot to get us in jail, so that the vigorous fight we are making for the benefit of the association will cease. The eyes of the members are kept on Africa, while a few individuals have their hands in their pockets. We are re-educating the members so that they will concern themselves with improving their social, civic and economic condition right here in America, and help Africa by financial and scientific contributions. (Signed) Wesley McD. Holder, secretary general Universal Negro improvement Association."

Drawing a huge flinch from his pocket, she said, he expressed his determination to kill her and his alleged wife. Frightened by the threat, Mrs. Knighton said that she ran to her dresser drawer where her husband's service revolver was placed and insisted that Cook get out at once. Cook is said to have advanced with his opened knife, and Mrs. Knighton opened fire. The bullet took effect in his right shoulder. Again Mrs. Knighton summoned the police, and Patrolman William F. McGoey responded. He called an ambulance from Harel Hospital which rushed Cook to the hospital. He then placed Mrs. Knighton under arrest. Because it was thought that the man's condition was critical, bail was denied her the following morning when she was arraigned in the Heights Court. When the case was called Monday morning Cook, who had been released from the hospital, did not appear. Attorney Richard L. Cunningham. representing Mrs. Knighton, explained the circumstances under which the shooting occurred and argued that ball should be fixed. Knighton was then called to the bar, and swore before the court that the revolver in the apartment was his service revolver and that he had a permit for it. Convinced that the case as presented to him was true, Magistrate Cottlieb said that he sympathized with the woman and announced that he would fix ball on the felonious assault charge at $1,000 and the gun charge at $500. After the hearing, Cunningham and Assistant District Attorney George W. Ewald hold a short conference to decide whether or not evidence was at hand to draw up a complaint against Cook on a charge of bringing a young girl here from another state for immoral purposes. The young woman who is involved has also disappeared. A warrant will be issued for her arrest if she does not appear on subpoena. Friday in the court.

GAS IN STOMACH HURTS THE HEART Thousands of Cases of Heart Failure Are Caused by Acute Indigestion, Says Medical Writer Gas pressure from sour, acid, upper stomach is not only nauseating and highly uncomfortable but some day it may prove fatal! When your meals are followed by blasting, a rising of fullness, a loss of breath and pain around the heart, you may be sure that the acid condition of your stomach is producing a GAS that is pushing upwards towards your heart, a reason for the shortness of breath and sharp, shooting pain. Whether young or old, the amount of stomach gas is truly serious and should always be given prompt and careful attention. To quickly banish gas, clean and sieve the stomach neutralize the acidity—nothing is better than initially acidified. Ordinary food, like Magnesia, it gives almost instant relief.

The trouble grew out of an altercation in a stationery store and soft drink stand on the southeast corner of 132d street and Seventh avenue, between Allen and the boy. Allen entered the stationery store about S o'clock and because of Wilson's behavior, which the intoxicated man did not approve, he picked up a soda class and hurled it at the youth.

Eagar gave chase, and over 2,000 persons followed close behind. In the middle of the block he overtook his man and was again in the act of placing the manacles on his prisoner when the mob pounced upon him.

"Organized music"—the term originated by Mrs. Isa Maud Ilsen musical director of the association—may be of inestimable assistance in curing the sick. In order to make music help the sick, words of songs must be chosen with care; the character of the composition, its tone color, rhythm and repetition must be combined in such a way that they may bring hope to the listeners, soothe rather than excite, and arouse interest in life. Absolutely taboo are jazz and doleful hymns as a part of the programs for curing the sick. Jazz is too jerky and unrestful; doleful hymns are too solemn and tearful, say the experts. Twas Florence Nightingale who sought to have music introduced into the soldiers' hospital during the Crimean War, and although her efforts went practically unheeded, today doctors increasingly recognize music to be of value in hospital treatment, and welcome it as an ally in their fight on disease.—T.

Sara Washington Situated on the banks of the Ohio, in the southwestern corner of the "Buckeye State." is a town called "Queen City." It's the home of ivory soap and Fielschmann's yeast, and better known as Cincinnati. However, this "Queen City" could boast of being the home of many beautiful girls, and in the Walnut Hills section there lived twins who were considered to be the belles of the State. The twins, Katherine and Mary, were twenty, well formed, and were possessors of charming personalities, pretty hair and eyes. They had many suitors and were well liked by everybody. Katherine was in love with Bob, a young mechanical dentist. But Bob seemingly was a "good-timer," a "ladyies man," and a spendthrift. He appeared to be one of those unscrupulous persons who heeded nothing seriously. Then, again, he had no handsome wife, a chap and a miser. With all his reckless ways "Kate" loved him. He was her type—tall and athletic. His smile was captivating. He was frank in his statements and a bit commanding. He was a real man—"Kate's" ideal. It was in the late summer of 1820 that the younger society set was shocked at the rumor that Mary, the other twin, raved as she never could "stand" Bob.

It's a sad mistake and should never happen," thus spoke Mary to her friends. However, it did happen. There is located in New York, in a beautifully furnished six-room apartment at 2 St. Nicholas place, a happy family. Bob, Kate, Robert, Jr. five years old, and Evelyn, three years old, are the occupants. Bob is not working at his profession as mechanical dentist, because there seemingly is a monopoly the work by a syndicate. The grade was too hard with his rebellious behavior, he is a clerk in the Customs House. He also has a little business of his own as a side line which neits him around $25 or $30 a week. This money, is being saved to buy that little home out on Long Island. But what has become of Mary? Mary who? Oh, yes. Kate's twin sister. Well, she did not marry the prosperous Dr. Green, as everybody thought she would. Anyhow, when "runnin' Wild" went through Cinemaat in 1923, Mary joined the show. She could not do much, but she loved her looks. She was really beautiful. It wasn't long before Mary landed in New York and she was much sought after. A new toy to be played with. Her associates seemingly influenced her and she strayed rapidly from the "straight and narrow." Men, money and more men. Her demands, needs and necessities became suspendous. Diamonds, fur coats, luxuriously furnished apartments, machines, wines and whatnot became to be "thrilling thrilled." Alknot parties that bore a freakish reputation were her delight. But soon the little pampered butterfly from Cincinnati fluttered its last. That fast life and late hours soon burned out the mechanism of her little human machine, and Mary's engine stopped. Mary's wants had been her downfall, while Kate's wants (Bob and family) had been like a blossoming flower. Kate's cheeks still were blooming, and even her eyes still sparkled. She is the picture of health, and then, too, she has something to cheer her—her kiddies. Great desires are often disas- LADIES, DON'T YOU KNOW The Wonde STORES, INC. Tel.

The desire to want, however, is not an evil itself; for the birth of certain needs is often a mark of progress. To feel the necessity of frequent bathing, of wearing fresh linen, inhabiting wholesome houses, eating healthful food, visiting the housemaster or treatments and cultivating our minds, is a sign of superiority. But, if certain needs exist by right and are despatible, there are others, like Mary's, whose effects are fatal. If one desires to retain her youthful appearance or improve it, she must follow the rules of simple life.

For the case against the Town Council of Kearney, which was brought by the HC Corporation of that city, it is alleged, and a settlement reached, that a court grew out of the action of the lawyer of Kearney and others who revoked the permit granted to a corporation of colored men to construct residences on one of the streets of Kearney. The lawyer for the corporation informed it representative of The Amsterdam News that he had advised his client to settle, and that the members of it would go before the Town Council on Tuesday evening, September 21, in an effort to make a settlement. "It is the best way out," the lawyer said. "If they attempted to construct homes on the plots they would be torn down before the Several prominent New Jersey lawyers gave it as their opinion that a colored attorney was wrong in the constitutional aspect of the case. POLICE SHOOT MAN ON BROOME STREET Arthur Grimley was shot and seriously wounded by a policeman. Thursday evening, when he and other members of a group of noisy boys in front of the Union Barber Shop at 225 Broome street were ordered to move on. The police officer first spoke to them and requested that they stop the noise. The officer then walked on down the street and was just about to turn the corner when he heard a shot. He returned to the spot and was told by the crowd that no gun had been disarmed there. He ordered all of the men assembled to move most of the crowd objected to Grimley refused. it is said and when the officer approached him he whipped out a pistol and shot at the officer.

I was weak and tired—just no good at all. My back ached and I had hot flashes until I was very nervous I smothered. "I couldn't sleep and I was never hungry, and I kept getting weaker. I couldn't stand on my feet. This was an unusual condition for me as I had been pretty strong all along. I knew that I would have to do something, and that pretty soon. "Some friend suggested that I take Curdul, and it certainly was a good suggestion, for after taking one bottle I could tell I was stronger and better. I didn't quit. I kept it up and did fine.

HAIR DRESS Colorful Movies and dependence, retrogressing economically—all because the poor, uneducated Negro was soil fodder for their availance. This educational reformation is all right, and Negroes the country over are glad because of its advent; yet, it must be twofold, so that the looking-glass can be turned upon the whites to the end that they will not only bestir themselves as to the Negro's agricultural future, but, also, as to his hopes, ambitions and rights in the country which claims to be the freshest country in the whole world. THE American Medical Congress has covered itself with glory by requesting London Hospital Medical School, of England, to give study facilities to seventy-five leading Negro doctors of America, who are planning extended courses in England next year. With Charlie Hall, eminent statistician of the U. S. Census Bureau, pointing out the glaring toll of Death among Negro mothers and children, it is fitting that every avenue of medical study be opened to those physicians and surgeons who must ply their knowledge and art most closely within the ranks of the race. Alas, however, the dean of the London Hospital says that he does not want a large number of Negro doctors dumped over in England, and is trembling in his boots over America's effort to care for her own doomed wife. He does not wrestle herself in the face of science, health and welfare. We believe that the American Medical Congress will remain courteously firm in seeking the privileges and advantages which the world recognizes are merely builders of humanity, not to be denied when the Special $1 X-Ray Examination Until September 27th Consultation, advice and examination of the Uroscope X-Ray Blood Pressure Test, etc., for One Dollar.

Audubon 3796 Brooklyn Man Commits Suicide After Heated Quarrel With Wife EIGHT Neighbor Summons Police When Body Is Found Hanging From Ladder All of the uptown section of Brooklyn was shocked at the news that William Hawkins, 40 years old, of 11 Prescott place, had committed suicide by hanging himself from a ladder on Monday afternoon, Sept. 13. He did this after a quarrel with his wife, according to the police. Hawkins was quiet, hard working man and comes from one of the older families in the old Weeksville section, as that portion of Brooklyn has been known for years. It is reported that Hawkins, who is a furniture mover by occupation, went home on the aforementioned day, after having a "session" with some friends where a quantity of potent beverages were consumed. He is said to have started to whip one of his children and Mrs. Hawkins remonstrated with him. Hawkins' response. It is stated that run her was to seize a knife and run her from the apartment. After he had quieted down, she went into the street and met his wife at the corner of Ralph avenue and Fulton street and asked her to return home. Mrs. Hawkins is reported to have stated that she would not return to the house. Hawkins replied that if she did not return he would kill himself. Knowing her husband to apparently be a man of a sound mind, Mrs. Hawkins later stated to friends that she was in the impression that she was joking. They addressed at the corner. Hawkins returned to his home and Mrs. Hawkins going in another direction. Shortly after he had returned home friends heard a noise in the apartment, and, having heard the argument between Mr. and Mrs. Hawkins, they wondered what had happened and Samuel Moore, a friend of the family, went into the home, which is on the third floor. There he found the body of Hawkins hanging from a ladder. The police were notified and an ambulance was called. Dr. Hill of the St. John's Hospital pronounced Hawkins dead. He leaves three small children. Hawkins was very popular in the uptown section and had worked for the Curb Furniture Moving Company for years. His mother is one of the best known church workers in this section and is identified with the Union Bethel A, M. E, Church at Schenectady avenue and Dean street. CORONA NOTES Miss Eva G.

NEWS OF BROOKLYN AND LONG ISLAND Brooklyn Office: 50 Hanson Place. Phone Sterling 1826 "Not Guilty" Because Lawyer Was Not Present It appeared that, Adele Watson, 20 of 336 West 115th street, Manhattan, would have been guilty if her lawyer was present, but inasmuch as he was not present she was not guilty, according to her statement when she appeared in the County Court on Sept. 17 to answer a charge of stealing $45 in cash and $752 in jewelry from the home of Mrs. Lillian Michaela, 336 Surf avenue, where she was employed several weeks ago. She has already served ten days, according to the police, in Manhattan, for a similar offense. When Adele appeared before Judge Nova in the County Court he asked: "Are you guilty, Adele?" "I am not guilty, because my lawyer is not here," she answered. "Were your lawyer here, then you would be guilty?" asked the judge. "Yes, sir," replied the defendant, with a broad smile. Adele pleaded guilty to petty larceny and was turned over to Probation Officer Mrs. Marle Mahon for investigation. Bishop Heard Suspends Two Aftermath of Sensational Internicine "Warfare" at Old Bridge Street Church The court order issued by Supreme Court Justice Charles J. Druban to Thomas H. Wood and Andrew C. Cole, members of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, and erstwhile class-leaders, has served as a boomerang, for Bishop William H. Heard, presiding bishop of the First Episcopal District of the A. M. E. Church, of which this church is a part, has stood loyally by the officers of Bridge Street Church, refused to hold services on Sunday Sept. 11, and not only has he given evidence of his support, but suspended the two men, Cole and Wooden, on Monday night, Sept. 12. They were class-leaders, and this action was taken at a church meeting following a motion by members of the church. This action is the result to the efforts of friends of Pressling Elder Montrose W. Thornton, or the Brooklyn District, to have him function as presiding elder at Bridge Street Church. These men secured the court order, but were not in court on Monday morning when Supreme Court Justice Dike was to hear the case; it was put off until Thursday, Sept. 23. It has been reported that the Thorntonites have asked for more time and want the case put off for a year. The rank and file of the members of Bridge Street Church applaud the action of the bishop and the officers in suspending the class-leaders. Some state that it should have been done before and the church would have avoided this uncalled for publicity. One member stated to our reporter that while it is not expected that every member should agree with the pastor or the officers, it is a self-evident fact that it is not good judgment to remain in the courtroom or any other person and not be in sympathy with his program or policies. This was the case with Woods and Cole, it is reported. At the last quarterly conference they attempted to file charges against the pastor and officers, but they were not received. Rumor has it that there are other members who have urged Woods and Cole on but did not have the nerve to come into the open; they have been pushed in the guse of "pulling the chestnuts out of the fire" for others. There was no evidence of any trouble at the services Sunday morning and evening. Sept. 19. From all indications, "Peace like a river attends the way" of the members of the church, and everything is very quiet, all awaiting in court this week or whenever they will ask that the case be called.

Walter NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY; SEPT, 22, 1926 Navy Street Man Held in Bail for Burglary The new popular defense against theft that the article stolen was really given as a pledge on a loan came up again in the County Court on Sept. 17 in the arrangement of Frank Walker, 30, of 142 Navy street, on a charge of grand larceny. It is alleged that Walker had stolen from the pocket of William Harris, 178 South Eliott place, a gold watch and chain.

Fatal Stabbing Out in Jamaica Fatal Stabbing Out in Jamaica "Black Bottom" District of South Street Put Into An argument resulted in the death, last Thursday, of Thomas Walker, 24, of State and Norris streets, Jamaica, when Sheppard Barnes, of 25 Ginsberg place, Jamaica, is alleged to have stabbed Walker in the chest with a jackknife. Witnesses say that both men engaged in a heated argument at South and Washington streets, Jamaica, following which both men threatened each other with pocket knives. Walker drew first blood when he is said to have cut Barnes' nose. In the struggle, Barnes managed to thrust his knife under Walker's chest and into his opponent's chest. As he did so, he twisted it until a gaping wound gushed blood from Walker's chest. Before help could be given the wounded man died, unable to give the police any information about the bravely. Patrolman Tulley captured Barnes after a chase of two blocks. The officer's attention to the argument was called by John McCormick, the Democratic leader of the district, who was at a polling place near Washington and South streets. Tully chased Barnes along South street and arrested him near Church street. The prisoner denied any knowledge of the murder, but admitted that he had a fight with Walker. When brought to the Jamaica police headquarters he again refused to say anything about the case, except to declare that he only had an argument with the victim. Assistant District Attorney Thornton, Capt McQueeny and Cap. Graham are conducting an investigation and declare that several witnesses to the murder have been found by the police. Detectives believe that the killing was done by Barnes, who acted in self-defense.

J. --- Every pew was filled to capacity last Sunday morning at the Nazarene Congregational Church. Troy avenue and Herkimer street, Brooklyn, in recognition of "Pew Day." Extra chairs were brought into the auditorium to accommodate many, while children found places around the altar rail. The message for the morning by the pastor, the Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor, was addressed to the 12,000,000 of the colored race in the United States. "The case of the American Negro," he began, "stands unique among all the racial groups of American life." "Snatched from his native land, transported across an angry sea, subjected to a cruel bondage, emancipated at the edge of the sword, thrust forth on the highway of freedom without guidance, disfranchised, segregated, mobbed redistributed, the career of the Negro is the romance of American history. In all this, the church has stood out as a beacon light for the race on the highway of freedom. By its light the 4,000,000 freedmen have become 12,000,000 fraternity. "In this racial evolution they have acquired $2,000,000 worth of property, and removed 55 percent of their illiteracy. It be said for the gratitude of the race that $90,000,000 worth of its property is devoted to the work of the church. Church's Message to Race. "The question has been asked, 'Has the church a message to the race in its present situation?' I was born of a Methodist mother and married a Baptist wife. I am a Congregationalist by choice. I think between major denominations of the church toward both. I have had the privilege of close touch with the 600,000 church members of the race throughout the nation. I may thus be pardoned for picking up the challenge thrown at the feet of the Negro church, and in her half attempt to give her message to the 12,000,000. "Recognizing that in our democracy every man is a citizen end that it is unbecoming to any citizen not to be interested in his government, believe that it is the duty of the man to study issues of the day and cast a clear ballot, for, in the last analysis, the people have the kind of servants they deserve." "Recognizing that the future belongs to Christian democracy and that the Negro American is the most advanced Christian of the colored races, which form four-fifths of mankind, believe that under God the future holds for the colored American a unique place, if he keeps himself steadily up to his best; for whoseword serves the Lord, him will the Father honor, Jesus' Ministry Threefold." "Recognizing that the ministry of Jesus will resemble in its scope, covering the mind, the spirit and the body, believe that the whole man must appeal to the whole man, not a part, for the church is the Divinely chosen custodian of the dynamic for the solution of every problem of humanity. "Recognizing that the abnormal death rate of the colored race is a reproach to many people and a menace to the community, believe that the church should regard it its prime duty to bend every effort to change this situation, for there is a close connection between mortality and morality. "Recognizing that money is a product of God's beauty and mankind industry, and is therefore sacred, believe that we should cultivate as a group those fundamental viruses of thrift, economy and cooperation, together with the practice of systematic proportionate giving; for no race can thrive today in this economic age that does not stand on a solid economic foundation. "Recognizing that there is no such thing as race in brain and the necessity of adequate mental training, believe that we should encourage in our youth all kinds of education from the kindergarten clear up through the highest university in the land; for, in the language of the German proverb, 'Despise the school and be a fool.' "This is the lamp the church holds out to the feet of a race toiling up the hill of American life. May God grant us strength to walk in that upward path until it loses itself in the City of City. In times of trial may we feel that freestyle rapture of the forward plains. Above all, may we be genuinely radiant with that love that conquers all. In this spirit a race that has never sung a song of hate sends the love-thought to all the world." Mr. and Mrs. William Carmen of 121 Orchard street, Hempstead, entertained for Dr. and Mrs. Bouroughs recently.

Urges Quiz of Senate Candidates Urges Quiz of Senate Candidates Should Find Out How They Stand on Anti-Lynching and Other Bills In a statement issued by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. he urges voters to quiz candidates for United States Senate as to how they stand on the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill; distranchement of colored voters in the south, and segregation in the Government Departments at Washington. "In the fall elections of 1926 the colored voters have an opportunity to show their power and to make that power effective in behalf of the race. "This has been brought home to the N. A. A. C. P. by numerous letters of inquiry asking about the record of candidates for office and seeking our advice about how to vote in the coming elections. "Our reply is very simple: make every candidate for election to the United States Senate state unequivocally and plainly what he intends to do. If elected, about the Dyer Bill, disgranchisement and segregation in Washington. As everyone knows, it is the United States Senate that has blocked passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynchning Bill, with the result that there have been more lynchings in the first eight months of 1926 than there were in the whole twelve months of 1925. "Our advice to colored voters everywhere is to vote for the Senatorial candidate, irrespective of party, who answers the three questions in a straightforward and satisfactory manner; and to vote against any candidate who fails to do so. If a candidate's past record does not record with his promises, demand an explanation.

LOUISVILLE, Ga., Sept. 20—Tom Johnson, under sentence of electrocution September 24 for the murder of Bessie Stone near here some months ago, made an attempt at suicide in the county jail here Wednesday morning, when Deputy Sheriff Clark Wright and M. M. Bargainer entered the jail to take him to Milledgeville. Johnson had made threats that he would never be taken out of the jail alive. Sheriff Thomas had made him change his clothes and be ready to go, but in some unaccountable way he had obtained a safety razor blade and when commanded by the deputies to come, he turned and slashed his throat, cutting to the hollow, but missing the jugular rein. Physicians say he has a slight chance to recover. National "Y" Membership Campaign Next Month The colored Young Men's Christian Association of the United States will celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of the initial gift of Julius Rosenwald to buildings for colored men and boys by a nationwide appeal for a capacity membership. This will mean the securing of at least 5,000 new members besides the renewals of present members. The dates of the campaign are set for October 15 to 25. There will be a competition between the skirt-eight city associations of the country to determine the one that most nearly approximates a fully rounded capacity membership, taking into account the quality as well as quantity of service the association is capable of giving.

Brecher interests, a parently fighting with their backs to the wall, have turned and practically placed the union on the defensive. Can Local 306 refute the strong charges made in this statement? Are the unions paraded to controvert what appears to be a solar plexus? That's now up to the local. Following is the statement: We have operated the Lafayette Theatre since June N. 1925. Since we have acquired the building, we have approximately $180,000 in wages. All of this money has been paid to colored people. With the exception of the manager (who has been in the employ of this theatre for a number of years before we acquired the Lafayette Theatre has been colored. The success of the Lafayette Theatre under our management is ample evidence that the colored employees have been satisfactory to the managers and we-man definitely state that our employees have always been satisfied with their wages and working conditions, and that suggestions from them for improvement had quick and fair consideration. We found a colored operator on the job when we acquired the Lafayette Theatre, and we replaced him with a colored operator whom we considered a better man and whom we paid a salary ten dollars man him his predecessor was receiving. We believe that the Lafayette was the only theatre in the entire city of New York that employed colored operators exclusively employed by us were non-union men. In fact all colored operators were non-union men because the union refused to accept colored operators as members. (We are informed that since 1915, the union decided to admit colored men, collect dues from them, but not allow them to attend the meetings of the union. This restriction, we are informed, has since been removed as a result of the union's efforts. Our colored operators were also ways satisfied with the wages and working conditions. We made many improvements in their working conditions, and at no time was the union rounding or wring, to which they raised any objection. The chief operator was slated for an increase of 55 a week in his salary and was given that increase in the beginning of the new theatrical season, in recognition of what we considered his loyalty. Salary increases were given to other employees, however, on Monday, September 6th, which was Labor Day, without any notice or warning whatsoever, the operators failed to show up for work. The performance was on Monday, 1:15, was delayed until 2:00 because it was impossible to get hold of operators on such short notice. In this way these men repaid the management by giving them jobs at a time when the union, which now pretends such friendship for them, did everything possible to keep a colored man in the workforce. Thus machine operator. It must be said, however, in fairness to these men, that they subsequently stated that members of the union had to sleep and send them at their offices, apparently against their will. As to the advantages or disadvantages of machine operators being members of the union, we are willing to let the union conclude its conclusions from the following facts: 4. Under the Lafayette non-union policy the chief operator works 11 hours, and from 7:30 to about 11:45, which is 4% hours, or a total of 8% hours per day. The chief operator is employed to give the upper and whatever other relief they can arrange between them, including the Friday night midnight show. Very often the chief oper- actor pretends to work the midnight show himself in order to earn the extra pay; but insults as he does it of his own volition, we do not interfere with it. At 3:45'-hour day the operator in the拉莱塔 is not continually occupied at the motion picture machine, as is the case in a straight motion picture house, where the motion picture show he has long resisted perishes. The stage shows run about one and one-half hours, while some of them run for two hours, and while during the time the shows are on the stage, the audience now and then, his work is not as continuous as operating a motion picture machine, and he does get on an average of two hours' input in a day out of the $2.5'-hours, besides his two hours for supper. The chief operator's salary up to this season was $55 a week, and, beginning with September 30, was in addition to this we pay the retailer. We consider $80 a week for a comparatively simple and easy job, with employment 52 weeks of the year, very fair pay, and well above the average earned by men who require far greater skill periods of preparation, and much harder work than is involved in motion picture machine operating. Any young man who is at all handy with machinery can learn to operate the course of a week, and be able to pass the requirements to enable him to obtain a license. All statements to the contrary are false, and are put forth merely for the purpose of arranging men from entering the field of motion picture machine operating. According to the union requirements, the operator would receive the same salary, but he must pay a $200 initiation fee, besides dues and other benefits. The operator would only be required to work five hours a day, but since when is five hours considered a fair day's work? How many trades are there that consider five hours a day to work? We do not know of any union-controlled theatre this rule is not applied uniformly. In a certain theatre in Harlem which runs a show similar to the Lafayette office, the chief operator, a union member, the other hour, eight hours a day. For the Lafayette union requirement is a five hour day for the men, the reason being that the Lafayette has a few more seats than the other house. The union works and the work of the performer is no different in one house than in the other, but because there are a few more seats in one house than in the other, this house is extra. We have a five-hour day for its operator in another house can have an eight-hour day. To sum up our case: 1. We have always employed colored operators, at fair pay, and work conditions. 2. We are working conditions. 3. We employ colored operators and pay them fair wages with satisfactory working conditions. 4. We are the operators under our conditions are higher than under the union conditions. 4. The colored operators have more to lose than to gain by being members of the union. This last statement we wish to simplify by calling attention to the approximately 4,500 registered operators there are little more than a dozen colored men having such licenses, although, as we said above, any colored man with a license in a short time to operate a picture machine and qualify for a license and a job. Schools teaching motion picture operators charge only $20 for the course. We have also trained a number of a colored operator being given a job by the union in any theatre outside of the, colored residential section. We several theatres controlled by the union in Harlem, we are formed that the union gives the jobs of chief operator to the white members, while the colored operators are given the relief jobs, and are working. As further basis of employment, we might state that, except for the East Side and other sections of the city inhabited by peo- people who are themselves members of different labor unions and thetheatrical majority of the theatres in Manhattan employ non-union operators. The salaries we have paid the col-lege are higher than those paid white non-union operators in other sections of the city. This applies to those in the department of the LaFayette Theatre controls in other sections of the city. Mr. Schiffman's Letter September 20, 1926 Mr Romeo L. Dougerty, Dramatic Editor Netherlands News Dear Sir: I am glad to hand you the statement which you have requested of Mr. Brecher concerning the present difficulty with the mo- tion of the play, *Fayette Theatre*. After a campaign in which pickets-platform orators, circulars and other means of pro- paganda were used, a campaign in free and fast, a campaign which was calculated to deceive the residents of Harlem and brand the Lafayette Theatre as the colored community of this community. I am happy that both you and Mr. Davis saw the unmistakable answer of the public of Harlem in their defense of the audience that was limited only by the capa- city of the Lafayette Theatre. This answer is particularly significant in view of the fact that the statements which have been handed to the newspapers and the speeches that have been made by the platform orators have gone practically undisputed until this moment. A great deal has been said in the last few days about the pattern and charitable attitude of the union in coming to Harlem to improve the condition of the motion picture operators. Much has been said of the protection they have promised to the men if they would quit their jobs. The paradoxical nature of their very aims is clearly brought forth in Mr. Brecher's statement. I know of dozens of incidents which would be quite illuminating on this question of their angelic interest in these operators. I only want to mention two or three: An operator named Gibson was threatened with arrest because he displayed on his automobile an inference forbidden by a Supreme Court injunction. When a police officer ordered him to the police station the two union delegates who were involved in his almost frantic calls to them. Gibson was saved from arrest and possible punishment only because he appealed to me, stating that he and the circular was placed on his car without his knowledge or consent. A speaker named Moore was arrested on Friday night for the disorderly manner in which he was conducting a meeting on Seventh avenue. The union delegates knew of the incident, yet Mr. Moore was on his own lawyer and his own houndstooth. A colored motion picture operator named Granville Dick applied to the Lafayette Theatre for a job, giving his references to the four children, one of whom was seriously ill in Bellevue Hospital, and was badly in need of a job. He was engaged at a salary of $60 a week. He worked from reporting to work. Yet white operators are employed in the Odeon, Roosevelt, Renaissance and Lincoln theatres, while poor Granville Dick has been pounding the city, which is now being denied him in other sections of the city, and kept out of "colored Harlem" by the union. This is the protection and encouragement which the union has given to the men, which is to them most unwelcome. Our own former operator, Mr. Sims, has repeatedly stated to me, both in private and once in the presence of the president of the union, that we have united a union under fear of bodily injury. No one knows better than you the attitude of the Lafayette Theu patrons, who colored the country. We have never posed as philanthropists. We have never pretended that our existence in Harlem was inspired by our own experiences, but we have always recognized that fair treatment of patrons and employees was not only humanly desirable, but good business. C. Miller's statement to you, that he considered the Lafayette Theu the very backbone of the colony, is a sufficient answer to the general fairness of our policy. I have no quarrel with men who try to improve their conditions, but I say frankly and sincerely that any attempt at this time to foist a five-hour working day upon any community sound and unwise. It can under no circumstances receive the support of any community. If you want to take up a worthwhile while, find out why there are only twelve colored members in the band which is a good one and in which hundreds of young men now doomed to operate elevators and to sweep floors can find profitable employment, has been practically buryed under the ground. When you go into this phase of the difficulty you will touch a subject which should and will find a responsive chord in the hearts of young men, and justice of an eight-hour working day is conceded, so long as a salary which is above that paid in other industries is enjoyed by these men, and by seasonal lays-off—so long must you admit that the position of the union in this controversy is indefensible, and that from their jobs without due cause, and that their obedience to the wishes of the group of men who have barred them from the union, who now suddenly profess friendship for them should terminate. Respectfully yours, FRAKN SCHIFMAN. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPT, 22, 1926 Hurtig and Seamon Knitting the Hunter Show? Well-Known Theatrical Producers Said to Be Cutting and Paring "4-11-44" to Dismay of Performers Hot off the bar came the information to us that all is not well in "4-11-44," the former "How Come" show headed by Eddie Hunter and which opened at Hurtig and Seamon's 125th street theatre. The production is in Massachusetts and going big everywhere. It is said that Gant and Perkins are being replaced by Jackie Melby, with other changes to follow. It would seem that it is the plan of Messrs. Hurtig and Seamon to chop down the show to the same dimensions as other Negro shows now on the hurlesque wheel. It is doubtful if these theatrical impressions will succeed in their plans when one considers the size and the intricacies of the production which has played as a musical comedy on Broadway and which remains as good an attraction as can be found anywhere at the present time.

"The Passionate Quest" at the New Lincoln Theatre Louise Fazenda Called a Disturbingly Clever Modiste in This Splendid Picture Thousands of fans all over the country, have expressed by letter their desire to see Louise Fazenda and Willard Louis again playing together. "The Passionate Quest," the J. Stuart Blackton production for Warner Bros., soon to be seen at the Lincoln Theatre, makes this a some true. The featured players are Fazenda and Louis, with May McAvoy, Cardinal James and other stars of distinction. Louise Fazenda in "The Passionate Quest" is a disturbingly clever modiste, presumably French, as her name is Mile. Mathilde Willard Louis is a designing, unscrupulous, get-rich-quick adventurer, one of the three who start for London on the Passionate Quest. What Louis the wily does to Louis the wise guy in thwarting his plans to win the hand of Rosina (May Meavoy), the feminine member of the quest, would fill several volumes. Fuzenda is the weather-vane of the screen. She is never the same. Only yesterday she was Flo, the minnequin in Warners' "Footsteps Widows." This, when the public and sourcedly stopped watching the mannequin of the manlyly sentient girl in "The Bat," You will remember her, too. In Warners' "Hogan's Alley" and in so many distractingly humorous parts. All of which is a far cry from the time of her black-face "Toys," which made her famous "panda panda."

Apt. 29 Word Comes From ETHEL WATERS AND COMPANY HITTING BIG Dewey Wineglass Harmony Kings Clarence Williams Revue at the Lincoln Revue Next Week Sissle Submits Statement of Funds Accruing to George Walker's Mother From Benefits Staged in Various Parts of the Country Recently Cincinnati, Ohio. Sept. 18, 1526. Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty. Dramatic Editor. Amsterdam News New York City, N. Y. Dear Romeo: Enclosed you will find a statement of the Mrs. Alice Myers (mother of George Walker) Trust Fund as has been sponsored by the theatrical profession throughout the country. At our request, Dr. Cabbell, the leading Negro physician of Lawrence, Kansas, very kindly consented to act as the president of the fund and to help Mrs. Myers to get her money invested so as to get situated comfortably and permanently. The enclosed statement is his report of the funds that he has received and handled on that end. Personally I might say that it was quite gratifying to note the universal support given this worthy cause, and the remarkable part of it is that the spirit was the same among the laymen as the professionals. Everyone seemed to catch the spirit and gladly rallied to the cause. Such a response marks a power in the progress of the race and is the greatest tribute to the Negro theatrical people in this generation. Our support could have been gotten from the laymen throughout the country, from our own people, from anybody connected with the theatrical life. Not that the performers of those days were not just as clever or as important an asset to the progress of the race as they are today, but they were still struggling to try to get recognition from the orthodox foreparents that believed that anything connected with the stage was kin to the devil and his works. God bless their memories, for their lives and their service have been built up in our race these viruses of Christian manhood and womanhood that will influence our lives, that will carry on through the ages. While in Columbus, Ohio, the other day it was my privilege, in the company of Lieut. W. T. C. Ayres, to visit the Governor of Ohio, the Hon. Donchay and one of the best tributes I have heard paid to the institution that I helped create was that he paid to "Shilke Along" company. In part he said that it was the clearest and most refined entertainment that he had ever witnessed on any stage; not a suggestive line, not an obscene situation, and he said that it was a pity that the white shows didn't pattern after our age. In the benefit performances we have given in the different cities great praise is due the local committees, because, coming like we do in a city for a week, it depends on the advance advertisement given affairs that makes them successful, and the fact that we are in most instances playing a local engagement great care has to be taken not to intrigue on contract America's Greatest Hatter America's Greatest Hatter $6.50 The Lengworth Style and quality must go together in good hats ... you'll recognize both in the junty raw-edge snap brim, the popular hat of the day. "and they never like the name" LONG The Custom Hatter Largest Retailer of STETSON HATS of the local theatre that brings us into the town. So it really is up to the power that the ones who represent us in the different cities have in stirring up interest that makes the affair successful. In some instances we have had to make a local charitable institution a part beneficial of the funds in order to assure the management of theatres that our appearance is for charitable purposes. In St. Louis the entire proceeds went to the fund. In Indianapolis half the proceeds went to the Band Fund of the Orphans' Home Kidnies. This benefit was sponsored by Ben Hollman and Rube Shelton, Frank Brown and the boys of Du Vals' Ten Black Birds. Some not band, I say. In Columbus, Ohio, Lleut, W. T. C. Aryes, who is vitally interested in things theoretical and has a tremendous follow-up, but there are no advertises; saged the benefit in the Memorial Hall, and with the co-operation of the Ohio Reunion Association of Ex-Service Men the whole proceeds were turned over to the fund. In Cincinnati we found a most unusual example of charity. Messrs. Ross and Whyte, two young gentlemen of color, who so successfully operate the Crystal Dansant, in fact, everything else that borders on big entertainment that elicits the social patronage of Cincinnati, had already taken over the big amusement park there for an Emancipation Day celebration, and that was to be the first time Negroes were to have the beautiful phone and they did the unbehind of giving the first entertainment for colored people at the park and shared half of the proceeds with the fund. These boys make their living giving dances and for them to give way for such a cause as this was charity in its biggest sense, and their whole ambition was for Cincinnati to beat all other inland cities, and it did. To our great surprise, Leitw. U. T. C. Ayres made a special trip down to the benefit from Columbus and on invitation of Ross and Whyte introduced Alex Jackson and his band, who featured along with us. It was a revelation. It being the first time we had chance to hear them play. They have set Cincinnati on fire and this is their third holdover week here. They came for one week only. Last, but not least, great praise must be given the Negroes led by Bill Robinson who put over that sensational success in New York. I have heard about it all over the country from the white performers as we meet them from town to town. That one benefit has done more to gain the already growing respect of his brother performer than any other one thing the Negro performer has done. There is but one thing I like to see come out of this movement, and I won't be satisfied until it is done, and that is for a National Negro Actors' Fund to be established to buy a home for the aged and infirm Negro actors, and to take care of such cases as this. We have got to do it. We cannot turn back now. Some week or weeks should be set aside each year like the white actors do and all our big and little actors should be set aside of white services and they do us and make it a national affair. I am sure that when the fellows all get in next spring to New York that this will be done. The interest in Mrs. Myers' case shows the spark of interest and appreciation is there. It needs to cultivate by those in position to do so. Yours for Sweet Charity's sake, NOBLE SISSLE For Sissle & Blake GEORGE WALKER'S MOTHER TRUST FUND. Date: 1926 Re. With- ceived drawn June 5.

Mr Romeo L. Daugherty. Dramatic Acting My Dear Mr. Doughey: I trust this will find you in tip-to- shape, believe this is my secon- d wife. I believe this is wha- been over here and I trust you received the first which was sent some time ago. This is just to let you know that we are still in the land of the living. This has been a great season for our people over here and the new season has started out in the most wonderful manner. All the colored aces have started the season booked up quite a bit. We are booked up past our "labor permit" time, which does not run out until the last of February, then we may run over to Germany, where we have a very good offer which holds good for any time that we choose. This week finds us in Portsmouth, a very beautiful summer resort, only 60 miles from London, and we are visiting the Paris' orchestra from London we are topping the bill. Believe me, this orchestra is red hot and big favorites in and out of London. We enjoy your columns each week in the Amsterdam News and wish you continued success. The Florence Mills show opens at the Pavilion in London on Thursday evening and all eyes are turned that way. Well, I 'shawnt' take up any more of your time as I am certain you are very busy. The entire quartette wish to be remembered to you. Guess you know by this time that I have a wonderful little baby daughter eight weeks old and both she and 'mother' are doing nicely. As the English say: Cheerio to you, with best wishes. Very truly. Ivan B. Browning, Mgr. Original Four Harmony Kings. C/o American Express, 6 Haymarket, London, S. W. Ethel Waters Opened to Big House at Lafayette Dewey Wineglass and His Revue Underlined as the Attraction at the Same House Next Week The popularity of Ethel Waters at the colored and other houses never seems to wane, and last Monday afternoon she drew a full house at the Lafayette when she appeared in her latest revue as presented by Earl Dancer. Miss Waters came to the Lafayette able supported by a cast which numbered some of the most widely known singers, dancers and comedians. Truth to tell, the entertaining Ethel came in at a most auspicious time as the Miller offering of last week did not seem to measure up to the usual Miller standard and many were the comments anent the lack of those qualities which made living C's previous offerings so popular. The Lafayette management announced on Monday that Dewey Wineglass and the latter's latest revue will be the big attraction at the 7th Avenue house all of next week. Dewey will come in assisted by another gathering of artists bound to please. If for nothing else than the hit the popular little dancer and his aggregation made the last time we believe we are safe in predicting success for him. home ..... 14 July 14, Charge from Plantation Girls, Chi. ..... 8 July 14, Mrs. Myers, for indemnity ..... 5 Sept. 2, Indianapolis Benefit ..... 5 Sept. 10, Columbus Benefit ..... 140 Sept. 11, Charge (C.

Oct. 1. The overwhelming success of the first Mandarin Ball, which was held in July, has been the cause of much talk, as a result of which those who were away for the summer will now have the opportunity to attend this Organical event which unquestionably the outstanding event of the Savoy's huge list of affairs. Visitors to the Savoy on that night will enter an entirely new and romantic interior, changed as it will be into a Chinese castle, where soft lights will cast their delightful shadows over a scene of Oriental beauty and where the sweet aroma of burning lilies lend their charming effect and so vivid that you will pause for breath as the wondrous beauty untolds itself before your eyes. Those who attended the previous Chinese Mandarin Ball will remember with keen delight the lavish program of Far Eastern acts that appeared, among whom were illusionists, gymnasts, comedians, singers, dancers and comely Chinese maidens in their native dances. This part of the entertainment will be repeated on Oct. 1, and now that the theatrical season has opened again in full force the management of the Savoy has been able to acquire the services of Sun Fan Tan's troupe which has an international reputation as the foremost exponents of Chinese theatrical art in the world. This troupe of Oriental stars has but lately returned to America after two years of sensational successes in London and the Continent and their first appearance in New York City will be at the Savoy. In addition there will be a return engagement of the Long Tuck Sam troupe which nearly made the audience collapse with ninth at the last bail because of certain mysterious magical feats they performed right under the very noses of the throng. The famous Chinese water trick will again be performed to give those who have been laying awake nights trying to fathom the secret of the trick another opportunity. It is planned also to present a band of 10 pieces consisting of all Chinese in a repertoire of jazz melodies as it is purveyed in China. This feature will be a distinct novelty and should add more thrills to an already thrilling occasion. Clarence Williams Revue at Lincoln This Week Well-Known Stars Round Out Splendid Bill at Popular 135th St. House With Eva Taylor, Willie Jackson, Lucille Hegamin, Simms and Crumbley putting over their stuff in big time manner at the Lincoln Theatre this week, things are humming around Lenox avenue and 135th street. A big crowd gathered on Monday afternoon at the request of Manager Raymond Snyder to witness weeks' bill and it was a most satisfied gathering that saw the above mentioned people and other big specialties at the popular little theatre. We have it from the management that "Shufflin" Sam From Alabama will be the big attraction next week, and if advance notices count for anything this show should be another big drawing card at the Lincoln.

DO IT NOW AND THE FIFTY DOLLARS IS YOURS SAVOY Worlds Finest Ballroom Lenox Avenue.140-141Street What They Are Saying About "4-11-44" Which Will Come to Miner's Bronx Theatre for the Week of Oct. 4 * (From the Evening Gazette, Worcester, Mass.) Eddie Hunter, colored comedian, an all-star cast of funnies and, a singing and dancing chorus introduced an all-colored musical production, "I-11-14," at the Plaza Theatre last night before an audience that packed the house. This production is as fast as a beam of light. Here one sees the modern southern darkey—Mobile and Birmingham brand—attempting to corner the cotton market. The officers of the trust go to jail for misappropriation of the cash assets and the scene moves to a bootlegging joint in the Chicago black belt. So much for the story. New York critics said Eddie Hunter was the successor of the late Bert Williams when they saw him in "How Come?" during its long run in New York. And they were right. He is the funniest colored comedian seen here in years. "Supporting him are Grayce Hector, a clever prima donna; Aurora Greeley, one of the bright spots in "Runnin' Wild" and "Liza" when these shows bid for fame; Billy Mitchell, comedian; Nina Hunter, a real Charleston dancer; Leroy Broomfield, who can sing and dance; Gant and Perkins, comedians, and a host of other, brownskin vampin' Sliebas, who certainly can dance, also the "Eight Dancing Spades." The score, which Leit, Tim Brynn wrote, is beautifully played by an enlarged orchestra directed by Leit. Brynn. The production will be staged every afternoon, and evening for the remainder of the week. Big Circus Picture at the Roosevelt Theatre Viola Dana Returns in One A powerful, heart-warming drama that gives an intimate glimpse on circus life behind the scenes on the set of "The Greatest Showman," a three-day engagement on Satur- day, Sept. 25, when "Bigger Than Barnum's," B. F. O.'s rattling melodrama of the Big Top, is shown for the first time here. Viola Dana, Ralph Lewis, George O'Hara and Director Ralph Ince take the four principal roles, and a finer combination could hardly be obtained by combining the motion picture production plants of all Los Angeles. The very circus smell that is insipient in the mind when seems to coexe from the screen, so faithfully have the producers caught the atmosphere of the threerest world. Arthur Guy Empey wrote the original story, which departs from the conventional type, of circus picture and yet retains all of the elements which have always gone to make that kind of screen entertainment most popular. J. Grubb Alexander adapted the tale and wrote the continuity. Comedy, too, has been injected in habit-farming doses; the lion's share in this regard going to Mr. Frace for his remarkable interpretation of the role of Ravelie, the braggadocio slack wire acrobat with love affairs in every town. Bert Lyteil Comes to the Douglas Saturday "The Lone Wolf," a Popular Vance Story. Which Shows Star at His Best Bert Lytell, perennially popular screen star, has played many big and interesting roles during his career on stage and screen, but of them all his creating of the leading character of Michael Lanyard, alias "The Lone Wolf" in the film versions of these famous Louis Joseph Vance stories, has been his greatest pleasure and pride. Lyttel comes to the Douglas Theatre in the above picture for three days commencing Saturday, Sept. 25. But they say that now Bert is sorrowing—unhappy and mourning because "The Lone Wolf" is dead, And the story is this. Louis Joseph Vance wrote four of these intriguing adventure tales of the underworld with "The Lone Wolf" as the romantic and daring crook hero. Then he wrote the fifth and what he decided was to be the last and called it "The Lone Wolf Returns." In this novel he attempted and achieved the difficult task of regenerating "The Lone Wolf" and making him a member of society once again, as well as providing him with a romance and wife of his own.

Sunday. Freddie Hohman's charges won by scores of 9 to 7 and 6 to 5, putting-up courageous battles in both games. The Dexter Parkers staked old Jack Warhop, the venerable underhand expert, to a three-run lead in the opener, but he promptly blew it and was replaced by Carl Dietjen in the third inning. Dietjen also twirled relief ball in the second game, replacing Joe Keiser in the sixth inning. The first victory was Warhop's, but Dietjen won the second. The Bushwicks went into the fourth inning of the first game trailing by three runs and came out leading by as many. The Hildaies had a three-run lead in the seventh inning of the second game, but the homesters tied the count in the eighth and won out in the ninth.

Eddie Goebel came through with three doubles for the Bushwicks in the opener, while Mackey lifted one over the right-field tense for the visitors, Capt. Joe Weiss, the Boy Lai and Dietjen got three hits apiece in the final, the last named having a perfect average. Win With Tow Out. The Bushwicks won the second game after the first two batters in their half of the ninth had expired. Campbell, who went the full route for the Hildaldes, brought about his own downfall by walking Jack McVoy. Paddy Smith then came through with a double to center, chasing McVoy in with the winning run. Singles by Smith, Dietjen and Lai, with Jimmy Irving's sacrifice fly, bad tied the score for the Woodhouses in the eighth frame. Going into the fourth frame in the early struggle on the short end of a 6 to 2 count, the Bushwicks put on their batting clothes and hammered out six runs. Dietjen started and finished this rally, getting on base twice. Irving Leaves Bases Full. Carr's fumble gave Carl a base. After Lai forced Dietjen, Irving singled to center and the Chinnman stopped at second. Lai scored and Irving went to third when Warfield misplayed Weiss' grounder, Irving trilled on Pee Wee Dean's sacrifice fly. Weiss pilfered second and went to third a moment later when Tod Dennehue beat out an infield hit. Goebel then smacked out his third straight double, scoring Weiss and putting Dennehue on third. Peyov duplicated Goebel's effort, bringing in Dennehue and Goebel. McVoy went to third on a wild pitch and Smith, hitting for Hohman, scored him with a single. Dietjen came through with a single and Lai beat out a hit, filling the bases but Irving fouled to Johnson for the third out.

In the first game two home runs by Dehigo helped the Cubans to win a 13-7 victory and in the other contest three homers by George Scales gave the Lincoln's Giants a 5-4 victory. The Cubans knocked Gesentan out of the box in the first inning of the two-game series and also hit the Lincoln's other star lefthander, Chambers, hard. In addition to Dehige's two home runs, he also made a two-bagger, as did Crespo and Fernandez. Oscar, who was also knocked from the mound, made a home run in his first trip to the plate. The Lincoln's hit Oscar hard for two innings but when San relieved him the heavy hitting was stopped, San struck out 10 batters in seven innings. Gilmore's pitching surprised the fans in the nightcap game. He held the visitors to eight scattered hits and seemed to get better as the game progressed. In the fifth inning Tom Finlay broke up a threatened rally when he stopped a high fly by Chacon. The scores of the games were as follows: Crespo, 2h. Palbo, 1f. Pelicano, 1f. Park, 2f. Chacon, ss.

Howard Prepares for NEW JERSEY TENNIS PLAYERS HERE SOON Big Grid Season Auto Drivers at the Indianapolis Fair HOWARD READY FOR THE SEASON WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 20. A preposition study of Howard's football outlook reveals an encouraging situation. Former Captain Alger, A Long, and Raymond takes have been promoted to the coaching staff. The passing of Deck Leon at halfback; Burrell, venturing with the probable loss of Bolt Jefferson and Price;acker; Dan Brown, "Pete" Taylor, Joe Johnson, fullbacks; Louis Ambulb and Dennis Simpson, due to economic and scholarly difficulties, presents a serious problem, but Coach Watson maintains his usual hopeful attitude and expects to develop successes as good or better than former stars. The coaching info for the first time will be made primarily of men who know the team to be used this fall. Both players and Long have played star setback under Watson's system for 20 years, 20 and 25. They are actually in accord with Watson's "When tires fail to stand the grind.

They promise to make an excellent team. The schedule is one of unusual interest and difficulty. Howard won from Livingstone last year 21-0; from Morehouse in 1922, 10-0, but the game with West Virginia has always been a bugle for the Howard Bison. The Yellow Jackets boast of having held the Blue and White to several tie games. Howard has never beaten them by more than one touchdown. This game will be a hummer. The Howard boys really want to take them into camp in an impressive manner. Then comes Fisk for her first visit to the National Capital. Not much is known about the Bulldog squad, but comparative scores of former seasons show the Bisons to advantage. Jack Walker, Conch Watson's brother-in-law, is captain and figures to launch a family feud to determine whether the Walker or Watson strain is supreme in the family. Then come the trips away from Washington, first to Wilberforce, then to Atlanta University, two of the strongest teams in the country. Howard has always won from Wilberforce, but for the last two years the games have been marred by a number of unpleasant happenings. All of this will be cleared up this season and the Howard group look forward to this game with the best spirit of sportsmanship as well as the best brand of football. Atlanta University was beaten last year in the last minutes of play. Naturally Atlanta plans to even the count on their home grounds, if it can. Lincoln! Well, if the Bisons come through this schedule in good form their winning ways should continue and beat the Lincoln jinx on Thanksgiving Day in the new Howard Stadium. The new gymnasium, athletic field and stadium will do much to help develop a fine spirit and make this the most successful season in the history of football at flowerd.

Abbott of the Crismon team has been driving his men hard since practice began in an effort to condition them for the game with the soldiers on September 23. Deficiencies revealed in the work of the men during the scrummages have engaged the attention of the coaches, Coach Ross "Charley" Owens, South Dakota State College star, the new addition to Tuskegee's grid staff, is constantly on the heels of the men calling for speed. The backfield has shown steady improvement and is working with a co-ordination that is gratifying. According to statements made by John H. Brown, the line will be as strong as it was last year. "The material on hand makes a very promising showing. I shall make no further remark until after our game with the soldiers." said the line coach. "Special effort will be made to develop the reserve material which has shown up in such abundance this year." was the comment of Coach Abbott. "The men are pointing for Lincoln and I have never seen such keen competition and such good-matured rivalry as is being shown by the aspirants for varsity berths on the team." continued the coach. Captain Kitchen, leader of the Crismon team, made the statement that his men will be in the pink of condition for the opening game. It is reported that Coach Abbott will use an open attack as this is the feature of work to which he has given most of his attention since practice began. His "mystery man" has shown such remarkable development in getting away after receiving a forward pass, and his hurler heaves with such unerring accuracy. It is thought that this is why this method has appealed to the cratty coach and has given rise to the thought that its use will be adopted. New York and New Jersey Tennis Players to Battle New York and New Jersey Tennis Players to Battle BY ARTHUR E. FRANCIS. The forthcoming battle for the Cockburn trophy between New York and New Jersey on Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 25, and 26, should be one in which tennis fans will see the most keenly contested games played anywhere among our race. It is true that in the past matches between the two states have always ended with New York on the long end of the games won, with but eight opposition, but this is most always due to a force of circumstances detrimental to New Jersey. We in New York feel that we have the better players, players who apparently look with keeper anticipation to matches of this kind, in which the tennis honor of the state is concerned, while the Jerseyites have always found some difficulty in getting out their very best players for these events, a fact which (without taking any credit away from our players) always worked against their chances. The annual contest for the Cockburn trophy should be a very popular one in the east and should be positively representative of the best tennis teams either of the states can produce. It is to be regretted that there is no association in the State of Pennsylvania this year, as this would make the contest ideal, but next year there may be one; however, New York and New Jersey should furnish a series of matches for the trophy this year that will set a high mark for tennis excellence in match play in the east, based on the performance of the best players of the two states during the present season. With such players as National Champion Eyre Saitch. George Smith, Fred Johnson, R. Ponder, F. Jones, L. Jones, E. and W. Phipps. Dr. Richardson, Young Reggie Wier, Mrs. Meston, Mrs. Conick, Mrs. Leonard, Mrs. Madison, Mrs. Reed and Mrs. Gittens for New York and K, and S. Worde, Butler, McWilson, Willis, Hill, Granger, V. Craig, Miss Marcellus, Mrs. Thornhill, Mrs. Suddler, Miss Vaughan, Miss Taylor and several others for New Jersey, provided the players will come out to represent their state, the series should be one that will linger long in the memories of the tennis fans. Among the white race the Church Cup match between Boston, Philadelphia and New York is an annual event that is looked forward to by the players and fans of those cities as a rare tennis dish, and we should make the Cockburn trophy among our race mean as much.

Joshua Cockburn, is in keeping with the importance the matches should develop, and whichever state wins it this year will have the honor as the first holder of the cup. Unlike the donor of the Church cup, Captain Cockburn is not a tennis player, but is very interested in any endeavor among our race that means progress, and when Dr. Hanson, president of the New York Tennis Association, spoke to him of the effort of the association to build up the same in the Empire City, he at once offered his services and the trophy as an initial step in stimulating more interest in tennis in New York City, and a better feeling among the three states. We feel quite sure that others in New York City, who appreciate our efforts to put New York City substantially on the tennis map, will follow the footsteps of Capt. Cockburn, H. Adolph Howell, Mr. Braithwaite of the Braithwaite Business School, and L. M. Cobbs of New Jersey, all of whom have helped substantially in our work of progress. SALINA FALLS BEFORE CANADA Canada Lee, crack Salem-Crescent A. C. weiterweight, received the decision over Joe Salina, of Grupp's Gymnasium, in one of the feature bouts of the amateng boxing carnival staged under the auspices of the Brooklyn Edison Company and M. J. Sloan for the benefit of the Flatbush Boys' Club at the Coney Island Stadium last Wednesday night before a crowd of more than 15,000. Lee held the upper hand throughout the entire three rounds, outpointing his rival at every turn. Still, one of the judges evidently did not seem to be impressed by the Salem-Crescent boxer's almost dawless ring generalship and voted for Salina. Charles Chilik, 160-pound champion of the Brooklyn Edison Company, won on a foul from Tom Easton of the Brooklyn Union Gas Company in another bout that met with the approval of the fans. The end came after two minutes of the second round, when Easton landed a hard blow to the ribs. Chilig doubled up and claimed that he had been hit low, whereupon he was declared the victor. Salem Man Continues to Win SALEM THIRD IN CHAMPS The Millrose Athletic Association on Sunday won the New York County track and field championship of the Metropolitan Association under the auspices of the Amateur Athletic Union at the City College Stadium before a crowd of 2,000. The winners piled up a total of 28 points, while the Greenwood Track Club in the runner-up position compiled 20 points. Third place went to the Salem-Crescent Athletic Club, which made 11 points. Jonni Myria of the Finnish-American Athletic Club and Olympic javelin throw titleholder. In an exhibition before the games started, failed to break his record of 214 feet. His best throw was 207 feet and happened to be his first of three tries. Louis Tikkanen of the Finnish American Athletic Club was returned the winner in the five-mile run with a time of 28 minutes and 17 seconds. Samuel D. Richman of the Milrose A. A. was second, beaten 29 yards. Teddy Swan, unattached, took third. Tikkanen jumped out in front at the very start and held the lead throughout, although he was challenged several times. He circled the track 25 times, lapping the last two runners. Harry R. Hinkle of the New York Athletic Club and national outdoor champion at the three-mile walk, led home a good field in the two-mile walk in 14 minutes 33.42 seconds. Harry Abranowitz of the 1924 Street Y. M. H. A. was second, and W. Modin of the same institution was third. Jinkle, a member of the 1924 Olympic team, won by 50 yards. COLORED AUTO DRIVERS RACE For the first time in the long history of the Indiana State Fair, one of the largest held in this country, colored people have had a major part in any one day's entertainment, when on Sept. 11 of Amer- THIRTEEN Man Continues to Win ica's fastest colored auto racing pilots supplied fairgoers with an afternoon of thrills and a demon- stration of speed. The races were the direct outcome of the insistence of the Indianapolis Colored Speedway officials, promoters of the famous nationally known Gold and Glory Sweepsteaks, that colored automobile drivers be permitted to demonstrate their grit and skill before an audience of people other than their own. The officials of the Indianapolis Colored Speedway are: William Rucker, president; Harry A. Earl, promoter and general manager; Oscar Schillings, promoter, secretary treasurer; Harvey E. Johnson, director of publicity, and Ernest Jay Butler, official track judge and outdoor advertising manager. More than fifteen thousand auto racing fans of both races witnessed the running of the races. State fair officials said the attendance mark of Saturday established a new last-day record. The series of races consisted of two five-mile sprints, two ten-mile races and a 25-mile derby. Malcom Hannon was the winner of the first sprint, "Wild Bill" Carson of the second. Carson won the first ten-mile race and Hannon, after crashing into the rail, took a new mount and captured the second ten-mile race. Ed. Brice of Indianapolis, captain of the famous Butcher team, beat the field in the big 25-mile derby.

The Knights of Pythias, E. W. H. has perfected a novel financing scheme for the financing of Pythian headquarters building, corner of Rungles and Washington streets, Boston. This property was purchased June 21, at a cost of $210,000, the two original owners taking back a second mortgage of $85,000, each owning $42,500. On June 1, 1926, five years from date of purchase, the first and second mortgages had been reduced by $88,000. The second mortgage, owned jointly by the two owners, had $22,500 had been reduced to $22,500 each. From the beginning stock had been sold at $5 per share to the members of the fraternity. Last May the idea was conceived of the Supreme Lodge buying the remainder of half of the second mortgage ($22,500) and selling same, bearing 6 per cent interest, to the members of the fraternity in such proportions as the members desired to purchase. On the 13th day of September, 1926, the entire amount of $22,500 had been paid in, notes issued, and all transactions were consummated by Thos. G. Schuyler, chairman of the trustee board, and Geo. E. Gordon, keeper of records and general knowledge to be the first instance of a fraternal organization giving its own members the opportunity to buy stock and own mortgage notes on the one piece of property.

The long winter night passed imperceptibly, and it was 5 o'clock in the morn- the company sat down to supper. Those who had with a good appetite: the others sat staring ab- their empty plates. When the champagne appeared, the conversation became more animated. How did you fare, Surin?" asked the host. I lost, as usual. I must confess that I am unlucky. I unwindole, I always keep cool, I never allow anything to come out, and yet I always lose!" And you did not allow yourself once to be tempted to the rock? Your firmness astonishes me." But what do you think of Hermann? said one of the painting to a young engineer. "he has never had a hand in his life, he has never in his life laid a hand yet he sits here until 5 o'clock in the morning making our play." Play interests me very much," said Hermann, "but I am in the position to sacrifice the necessary in the hope of the superfluous." Hermann is a German, he is economical—that is all." said Tomsky. "But if there is one person that I cannot understand, it is my grandmother, the Countess Anna Feeney." "How so?" inquired the guests. I cannot understand." continued Tomsky, "how it is my grandmother does not punt." "What is there remarkable about an old lady of so not mong?" said Narumov. "When you do not know the reason why?" "No really haven't the faintest idea." then listen. About sixty years ago my grandmother went to Paris, where she created quite a sensation. She used to run after her to catch a glimpse of the 'Musée Venu.' Richelieu made love to her, and my grandmother maintains that he almost blew out his brains in consequence of her cruelty. At that time ladies used to play on one occasion at the Court she lost a very considerable sum to the Duke of Orleans. On returning home grandmother removed the patches from her face, took her hoops, informed my grandfather of her losses at the dining-table, and ordered him to pay the money. My devised grandfather, as far as I remember, was a sort of muse-steward to my grandmother. He dreaded her like fire; in hearing of such a heavy loss, he almost went out of mind, he calculated the various sums she had lost, and sent out to her that in six months she had spent half a franc, that neither their Moscow nor Saratov escaped in Paris, and finally refused pointblank to pay My grandmother gave him a box on the ear and slept herself as a sign of her displeasure. The next day she met her husband, hoping that this domestic punishment induced an effect upon him, but she found him insulted. For the first time in her life she entered into reevaluations and explanations with him, thinking to be able to tell him that there are debts and debts, and that; there is great difference between a Prince and a coachmaker. But was all in vain, my grandfather still remained obduined but the matter did not rest there. My grandmother knew what to do. She had shortly before become married with a very remarkable man. You have heard that St. Germain, about whom so many marvellous tales are told. You know that he represented himself as a wandering Jew, as the discoverer of the elixir of life, of Christopher's stone, and so forth. Some laughed at a chariatan; but Casanova, in his memoirs, says that he was a spy. But be that as it may. St. Germain, in spite of mystery surrounding him, was a very fascinating man and was much sought after in the best circles of Venice to this day, my grandmother retains an affectionate recollection of him, and becomes quite angry if you speak disrespectfully of him. grandmother knew that St. Germain had large Solidarity of Workers By WILLIAM PICKENS or color. life is interested in rs color prejudice among the es workers only because it o keeps them divided into a o majority and a large minor- ity camp. hostile to each s. other—with the black and r resentful minority always r ready to undercut the white n majority when the latter de- s mands too much or get un- submissive. This primary lesson for black and white workers to learn in the United States is that a "color line" is of no importance. Color lines and other mere racial lines are instructions for the classes, not for the masses. A color line may bring some distinctions to philocrats, but can bring only division and weakness to the ranks of those There can be no real emancipation for black people, nearly all of whom are in the working class, and no permanent security for white workers until these two groups understand their mutual interests, form one camp and work together in harmony. For the blacks this division in the ranks of the workers is a desperate situation, indeed, for they become a mere tool of the employers who use them to beat down the status of all workers, including the black workers. And to the white workers these blacks become a great society where the primary aim is profits, color will never be permitted to tie the hands of the profiteers prior dealings with the la- gers.

PUSHKIN "Yes: everything went off very pleasantly, and dancing was kept up until 5 o'clock. How charming Yeletzkaya was!" "But, my dear, what is there charming about her? Isn't she like her grandmother, the Princess Daria? By the way, she must be very old, the Princess Daria." "How do you mean, old?" cried Tomsky, thoughtlessly: "she died seven years ago." The young lady raised her head and made a sign to the young officer. He remembered that the old Countess was never to be informed of the death of any of her contemporaries, and he bit his lips. But the old Countess heard the news with the greatest indifference. "Dead!" said she; "and I did not know it. We were appointed maids of honor at the same time, and when we were presented to the Empress . . . ." And the Countess for the hundredth time related to her grandson one of her anecdotes. "Come, Paul," said she, when she had finished her story, "help me to get up. Lizzaka, where is my sniffbox?" And the Countess, with her three maids, went behind a screen to finish her toilette. Tomsky was leit alone with the young lady. "Who is the young gentleman you wish to introduce to the Countess?" asked Lizanka in a whisper. "Narumox. Do you know him?" "No. Is he a soldier or a civilian?" "A soldier." "Is he in the Engineers?" "No, in the Cavalry. What made you think that he was in the Engineers?" The young lady smiled, but made no reply. "Paul," cried the Countess from behind the screen, "send me some new novel, only pray don't let it be one of the present day style." "What do you mean, grandmother?" What do you mean, grandmother? "That is, a novel in which the hero strangles neither his father nor his mother, and in which there are no drowned bodies. I have a great horror of drowned persons." "There are no such novels nowadays. Would you like a Russian one?" "Are there any Russian novels? Send me one, my dear, pray send me one!" "Good-bye, grandmother. I am in a hurry. . . . Good-love, Lizanka. What made you think that Narumov was in the Engineers?" And Tomsky left the boudoir. Lizanka was left alone. She laid aside her work and began to look out of the window. A few moments afterwards, at a corner house on the other side of the street, a young officer appeared. A deep blush covered her cheeks. She took up her work again and bent her head down over the frame. At the same moment the Countess returned completely dressed. "Order the carriage, Lizanka," said she, "we will go out for a drive." Lizanka arose from the frame and began to arrange her work. "What is the matter with you, child, are you deaf?" cried the Countess. "Order the carriage to be got ready at once." "I will do so this moment," replied the young lady, hastening into the ante-room. A servant entered and gave the Countess some books from Prince Paul. "Tell him that I am much obliged to him," said the Countess. "Lizanka! Lizanka! where are you running to?" "I am going to dress." "There is plenty of time, my dear. Sit down here. Open the first volume and read to me aloud." Her companion took the book and read a few lines. "Louder," said the Countess. "What is the matter with you, my child? Have you lost your voice? Wait—give me that footstool—a little neuer—that will do." Arrows By R. A. ADAMS I'VE DONE MY PART THO' I may not be called to go To lands far-distant, yet I know When I do what my hands may find.

When I have humbly done my best That fellow-creatures may be blest With all my heart. I've done my part. Altho' my talent may be small. When I in answer to the call. Have done the very best I can In interest of my fellow man. With all my heart. I've done my part. If suddenly my soul should hear The call in judgment to appear. At sunset hour and closing day. May it be mine, at last to say. With all my heart. I've done my part! —R.A.A. sums of money at his disposal. She resolved to have recourse to him, and she wrote a letter to him asking him to come to her without delay. The queer old man immediately waited upon her and found her overwhelmed with grief. She described to him in the blackest colors the barbarity of her husband and ended by declaring that her whole hope depended upon his friendship and amiability. St. Germain reflected. "I could advance you the sum you want," said he, "but I know that you would not rest easy until you had paid me back, and I should not like to bring fresh troubles upon you. But there is another way of getting out of your difficulty: you can win back your money." "But, my dear Count," replied my grandmother. "I tell you that I haven't any money left." "Money is not necessary," replied St. Germain. "Be pleased to listen to me." "Then he revealed to her a secret, for which each of us would give a good deal." The young officers listened with increased attention. Tomsky lit his pipe, puffed away for a moment and then continued: "That same evening my grandmother went to Versailles to the jeude la reine. The Duke of Orleans kept the bank; my grandmother excused herself in an offhand manner for not having yet paid her debt by inventing some little story, and then began to play against him. She chose three cards and played them one after another. All three won and my grandmother recovered every farthing that she had lost." "Mere chance!" said one of the guests. "A tale!" observed Hermann. "Perhaps they were marked cards!" said a third. "I do not think so," replied Tomsky, gravely. "What?" said Narumov. "you have a grandmother who knows how to hit upon three lucky cards in succession, and you have never yet succeeded in getting the secret of it out of her?" "I that's the dence of it!" replied Tomsky. "She had four sons, one of whom was my father; all four were determined gamblers, and yet not to one of them did she ever revenge her secret, although it would not have been a bad thing either for them or for me. But this is what I heard from my uncle, and he assured me, on his honor, that it was true. The late Chaplitzky—the same who died in poverty after having squandered millions—once lost, in his youth, about three thousand dollars—to Zorich, if I remember rightly. He was in despair. My grandmother, who was always very severe upon the extravagance of young men, took pity, however, upon him. She gave him three cards, telling him to play them one after another, at the same time exacting from him a solemn promise that he would never play at cards again as long as he lived. The young man then went to his victorious opponent, and they began a fresh game. On the first card he staked fifty thousand dollars and won; he doubled the stake and won again, till at last, by pursuing the same tactics, he won back more than he had lost. "But it is time to go to bed, it is a quarter to six already." And indeed it was already beginning to dawn. The young man emptied their glasses and then took leave of each other. The old Countess A—— was seated in her dressing room in front of her looking glass. Three waiting maids stood around her. One held a small pot of rouge, another a box of hairpins, and the third a tall cap with bright ribbons. The Countess had no longer the slightest pretensions to beauty, but she still preserved the habits of her youth, dressed in strict accordance with the fashion of seventy years before, and made as long and as careful a toilette as she would have done sixty years previously. Near the window, at an embroidery frame, sat a young lady, her ward. "Good morning, grandmamma," said a young officer, entering the room. "Good morning, Miss Lizanka. Grandmamma. I want to ask you something." "What is it, Paul?" "I want you to let me introduce one of my friends to gather, with no thought of color. Every one of the so-called "interracial" movements in this country recognizes this truth in fact if not in creed. They go on the assumption that white and colored people, of the various classes even, have the same interests regardless of race and color. Surely, then, the poor who suffer the same lack and are pinched by the same need, ought to see the community of their interests. menace. Thus the blacks have friction on the very plane where it would profit them most to have accord: for they must live and compete on the economic plane of these poorer whites, of the working whites: as workers and consumers. the laboring whites are their group—not the employer whites. Colored workers, in America, need not expect white employers to defend black workers against white workers, except, when the employers are at war with the white workers. When the war is over, the blacks are to be the chief losers, every time. Having great faith in heaven and other vast and unseen powers, the Negro has been expecting either God or these rich white people to settle his affairs and do him justice or see that justice is done him. He has even been in the habit of thinking and charging all his woes to the opposition of the "no whites." But in any and all cases, a division of labor on a "color line," or any other irrelevant line, is a loss to all the laborers—every time. It seems seidom to occur to him or to the poorer whites that there is but one real interest in this country for poor people, for working people of any color, and that they must pursue, defend and sustain that interest to The common cement of workers should be their labor, and neither politics nor religion nor the ancient superstitions about "race" should be permitted to divide them. EDITORIALS --- SPECIAL ARTICLES REAL ESTATE AND FINANCIAL ADVERTISEMENTS Lizanka read two more pages. The Countess yawned. "Put the book down," said she. "What a lot of nonsense! Send it back to Prince Paul with my thanks. But where is the carriage?" "The carriage is ready," said Lizanka, looking out into the street. "How is it that you are not dressed?" said the Countess. "I must always wait for you. It is intolerable, my dear!" Lizanka hastened to her room. She had not been there two minutes before the Countess began to ring with all her might. The three waiting maids came running in at one door and the valet at another. "How is it that you cannot hear me when I ring for you?" said the Countess. "Tell Lizanka that I am waiting for her." Lizanka returned with her hat and cloak on. "At last you are here!" said the Countess. "But why such an elaborate toilette? Whom do you intend to captivate? What sort of weather is it? It seems rather windy." "You never think of you are talking about. Open the window. So it is: windy and bitterly cold. Unharness the horses. Lizanka. we won't go out—there was no need for you to deck yourself like that." "What a life is mine!" thought Lizanka. And, in truth, Lizanka was a very unfortunate creature. "The bread of the stranger is bitter" says Dante, "and his staircase hard to climb." But who can know what the bitterness of dependence is so well as the poor companion of an old lady of quality? The Countess A——had by no means a bad heart, but she was capricious, like a woman who had had been spoilt by the world, as well as being avaricious and egotistical, like all old people who have seen their best days, and whose thoughts are with the past and not the present. One morning—this was about two days after the evening party described at the beginning of this story, and a week previous to the scene at which we have just assisted—Lizanka was seated near the window at her embroidery frame, when, happening to look out into the street, she caught sight of a young Engineer officer, standing motionless with his eyes fixed upon her window. She lowered her head and went on again with her work. About five minutes afterwards she looked out again—the young officer was still standing in the same place. Not being in the habit of coqueting with passing officers, she did not continue to gaze out into the street, but went on sewing for a couple of hours, without raising her head. Dinner was announced. She rose up and began to put her embroidery away, but glancing casually out of the window she perceived the officer again. This seemed to her very strange. After dinner she want to the window with a certain feeling of uneasiness, but the officer was no longer there—and she thought no more about him. A couple of days afterwards, just as she was stepping into the carriage with the Countess, she saw him again. He was standing close behind the door, with his face half concealed by his fur collar, but his dark eyes sparkled beneath his cap. Lizanka felt alarmed, though she knew not why, and she trembled as she seated herself in the carriage. On returning home she hastened to the window—the officer was standing in his accustomed place, with his eyes fixed upon her. She drew back, a prey to curiosity and agitated by the feeling which was quite new to her. From that time forward not a day passed without the young officer making his appearance under the window at the customary hour, and between him and her there was established a sort of mute acquaintance. Sitting in her place of work, she used to feel his approach; and raising her head, she would look at him longer and longer each day. The young man seemed to be very grateful to her. She saw, with the sharp eye of youth, how a sudden flush covered his pale cheeks each time their glances met. After about a week she commenced to smile at him. (To Be Continued Next Week.) MODESTY OF QUEEN VASHTI In the Book of Esther we find the record for the devotion, loyalty and courage of the queen for whom the book is named. The world has paid great tribute to Esther, but little credit has been given to Queen Vashti, whom Esther succeeded as the wife and queen of King Ahasueras. The king had made a great feast and invited many royal guests. Like "The Feast of Belshazzar and a thousand of his lords," the feast of Miasueras was a "Feast of Wine," and the attendants soon were drunken. When the king and his guests were well drunken, he sent for his queen. Vashti, one of the most beautiful women of all times, come into the banquet hall and make display of her beautiful form, for the entertainment of his guests. Vashti refused thus to degrade herself and cheapen her womanhood in the sight of the men, and because she refused to do the king's bidding and expose her person to the gaze of lustful drunkards, the king divorced and banished her. Let it be remembered that Vashti refused to degrade herself even to save her kingdom. Today, for small compensation, in cabarets, vaudeville, minstrels, fashion shows, studios and elsewhere women do not hesitate to expose their person to the gaze of men. Following the accursed fashions of today, and for no consideration, except the questionable pleasure of attracting the attention of men, women make shameless and reckless exposure of themselves. In doing this they know that they appeal to the baser passions in men; that they incite lust and invite advances; that they encourage impurity, immorality, and endanger not only themselves but the very civilization of which we often boast. Under these conditions, and for the preservation of our moral standards, it becomes indispensable that there should arise women of the Vashti type who will not "bow their knees to this Bani" nor kiss his despicable image. 40TH ST., 319 W. — Furnished rooms, private; heat, bath; kitchen privileges.

Wednesday, September 22, 1926 The Church Today WHILE there are those who claim that the church as an organized force for good is losing ground, we would rather say and believe that it has failed to adjust itself to its modern conditions and surroundings. The white church, particularly, has seemingly, at least, failed in its attempt to grapple with the moral problems confronting the nation and has resolved itself into a spineless, lukewarm literary society, where people go on Sunday to hear sermons the minister himself only partially believes in—or is unwilling to put into practice in everyday life—and leave no worse and no better than when they went in. WHITE CHURCH PEOPLE like to hear ministers discourse on the brotherhood of man, the injustice of lynching and discrimination, prohibition, governmental and social corruption and the like, but when doxology is sung all is forgotten and the parishioner resumes his oppression of the weak and defenseless of all races, including his own, relicts the blaze under his home still and goes on his way without the least compunction or fear of punishment here or hereafter. And yet, the Word is being preached to a larger number of people than ever before in the history of the world. THE NEGRO CHURCH as an organized force has concerned itself with pointing the way to heaven and with assuaging the wrongs heaped upon the race by the dominant race and acquiesced in by a perverted Christianity professed by it. Thus it began and thus it is today. MEANWHILE, the Negro, like his white Christian brother, is not thinking so much of life hereafter as he is of life here on earth, and has come to the conclusion that no amount of sentimental twaddle will cause the white race to practice a little of what it professes as a Christian and democratic nation. The Negro likes to hear the beautiful sermons preached by his ministers on race unity, but after noticing that his leader fails to put into practice the words he preaches, concludes that the time for race unity has not yet arrived, places his bet on the numbers, buys a pint of liquor from his white bootlegger and sits down to his player-piano. THE RESPONSIBILITY imposed upon the Negro church is greater than that of the white church because, in addition to salvation, the Negro needs many other things the white race already has with more limited means of getting them. It must not content itself with merely pointing the way to life hereafter lest many of its followers be overcome and fall by the wayside in the battle of life. Every sane and just concern of the Negro should be its concern because the prosperity of the church will, in time, entirely depend on it. It should become EDITORIAL PAGE more militant in its opposition to injustice on the part of white people and wrongdoing on the part of colored people. Already in the front, the Negro church must point the way by teaching and example to economic independence, race unity and a higher standard of morality. Harlem's Handkerchief Heads IN AN AFTER-DINNER speech William Pickens paid a glowing tribute to the Negro professional man in Harlem, basing his remarks, not on theory, but on his recent experiences when his son, William, Jr., was stricken with a serious attack of appendicitis at Lincoln University, necessitating an operation. THE YOUNG MAN was hurriedly brought back to New York City, where the operation was performed successfully by Negro physicians, in a Negro sanitarium. There is nothing new in this because Negro physicians administer to thousands of patients daily in their homes and in hospitals. Most of them have had the same preliminary training, attended the same medical schools and studied under the same professors, and met the same state requirements. THERE is, however, a small group in our midst that still believes that when serious illness comes, when a minor or major operation becomes necessary, one's life is more secure in the hands of a white physician—any white physician than in the hands of a Negro professional man. They forget that the average white physician is interested only in collecting his fee, while the Negro physician has a kindly feeling towards them that cannot be measured in dollars and cents. Most of the members of this group are men and women of supposed intelligence. Many of them owe whatever success they enjoy in life to the Negro masses. They are the real handkerchief head of Harlem. WHEN a man charged with several heinous crimes faced the judge for sentence a day last week he clasped a pocket testament under his arm. He had been reading from it all the while his trial was in progress. The judge sentenced him to prison for seventy years and he can now read to his heart's desire. A NEWS ITEM informs us that, out of the seventeen inmates of Sing Sing's death house, one has a bank account of two thousand dollars, seven others have sums ranging up to twenty dollars each and the remaining nine are penniless. EXPRESSED BY OUR CONTEMPORARIES ace Prejudice in England Race Prejudice in England (From the Evening World.) It is frequently asserted stoutly that race prejudice, and especially white prejudice against the colored race, is confined to this country. It appears otherwise, if the reports of English opposition to the plan of the American Medical Society to send seventy-five leading Negro doctors to study medical methods in English hospitals is true. "We do not want to have a large number of Negro doctors dumped on any particular hospital," explains Prof. William Wright, dean of the London Hospital Medical School. Naturally no one has thought of sending all of the seventy-five to one hospital. Behind the reasons given for the questioning of the project looms the real reason—a prejudice against these doctors because they are colored. This is all the more remarkable from England, which has long boasted that "no matter what complexion an Indian or an African sun may have burned upon them," all children of the race have equal rights and privileges in England. No doubt a satisfactory arrangement will be made, and the colored doctors will be given every facility of study. Nordic Jersey Justice "On the Trail of Negro Folk-Songs" BY DOROTHY SCARBOROUGH. Published by The Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Mass. Price, $3.50. MUST CONFESS to being somewhat late in reviewing this book. I have been deterred by the fact that it has no index, and one has a right to dread a book of research that is not indexed. However, once the first plunge is taken all dread disappears. The book is written in a sprightly, entertaining manner, and if one has to index it oneself, so much the greater familiarity with the context. Wisely, it does not deal with the Spirituals, but confines itself to less familiar material, though Talley. Odum and Johnson and others have been over a large part of Miss Scarborough's field. SITUATED in the southernmost section of the State of New Jersey is the little water-bound town of Cape May, famed for its ideal climate and renowned by the famous expression: "Twenty Miles at Sea." Naturally, vacationists are lured to this choice spot as the ideal place for rest, water sports and balmy weather. True, serene Cape May possesses these characteristics in a large measure, but in a still larger way she lays claim to an undue and unwarranted degree of "Nordic Jersey Justice." This can be illustrated by the following experience: Recently, on a languid September evening, while slowly pacing the boardwalk that fringed the majestic Atlantic, and idly gazing at the white-capped waves as they rushed to the shore, I came suddenly upon a "movie" theatre that portrayed screaming announcements of the picture, entitled: "Men or Steel." Evincing a desire to enter and having nothing to spend but the evening, I sauntered up to the office where tickets were being issued and asked for a seat. An abashed and utterly surprised ticket-seller BOOK MARY WHITE "On the Trail of By DOROTHY SCARBOROUGH University Press, Cambridge I MUST CONFESS to be ing this book. I have it has no index, and one of research that is not inde plunge is taken all dread di The book is written in ner, and if one has to index er familiarity with the cont with the Spirituals, but co material, though Talley. O have been over a large part The volume contains 203 songs, 106 of them with the music and many variations. The author has been years making the collection. She tells of how she has "loafed on side steps, hung guillefully over garden fences, broiled before cookstoves and ironing boards." She went into colored churches and colored homes; she even beguiled old church members to sing long forbidden and forgotten reels. She so bullied the students of Baylor University, Waco, Tex., that they facetiously declared she had arranged that they should not pass their finals unless they procured new folk-songs for her. Evidently she enjoyed her search. "If weary financiers but knew the fun there is in it," she declares, "they would quit their desks to go in search of songs." And if they cannot go themselves she suggests that they endow chairs for folk-songs in the universities. "There is no closed season, though if collectors do not burry up the season will be closed forever, as far as many precious old songs are concerned." The chapters tell of Negro ballads, dance songs or reels, children's game songs, songs about animals, work songs, railroad songs and blues. There is even a chapter on the Negro's part in transmitting the traditional songs and ballads. It is impossible for any but an expert to evaluate the importance of the material Miss Scarborough has gathered. As a scholar she must have done her best to determine whether the Negro song is Negro or an adaptation of a white song. Perhaps at times it is impossible to know. It was pleasing to see that many college gleees of the last century were Negro in origin. Some or those tired elderly financiers, who ought to endow folk-song as boys gathering used to sing to a rollingick tune "The monkey married the baboon's sister." They used also to sing "A grasshopper sitting on a sweet vine" very slowly when he was going to the funeral, very fast when he came back. They --- By JAMES EGERT ALLEN gave me a hurried glance and at once exclaimed: "Colored people never come in here!" "Why?" I asked. But there was no answer to be given. Just a repetition of the first utterance: "Colored people never come here." "Please let me see the manager." I interrupted, and soon I was ushered into the presence of a spineless specimen of "Nordic Superiority" who explained that he was the assistant manager and would hear my case. He had no argument to refute my question: "Is there a Civil Rights Bill in New Jersey?" I was only asked to read the back of the ticket which gave the management the right to exclude any undesirable person from the theatre. After a few threats he lowered the flag of "Nordicism" and sold me a ticket which I promptly tore into bits and walked away. I continued my journey until I approached another building, dilapidated in appearance, but staple enough to house an all colored population gazing in frenzied anxiety at Chestnut's popular work: "The House Behind the Cedars," with an all colored cast.

"Rhino- neros and the Kangaroo." They knew "Jay bird asittin" on a swingin' limb." And all these are Negro. The chapter on children's songs is slight. Miss Scarborough had difficulty in finding many. She has not "arms, arms, arms around me, pray little slissy will ye marry me" that we hear in New York. Her reels are the newest material to me, and she has a number of good work songs. But it is the presence of the music that makes the book not only a repository for the folk-lore student, but a delightful thing for all of us to have. Here are over a hundred melodies. We can dance and play and work to them. How delightful to teach a child to hammer while he sings "Who build de ark?" Noah build it, cut his timber down." Miss Scarborough has done much for her section of the country. When a Negro chorus appeared on the platform of Baylor University to sing folk music it was greeted with a riot of enthusiasm. After repeated encounters the program was allowed to continue only if the Negroes returned and sang again at the last. One is grateful for all Miss Scarborough does. But when she speaks of "awakened interest in Negro problems of education and service" and in illustration notes that Carnegie Hall was lately packed to hear singers from Hampton and Tuskegee, one is amused. The Fisk Jubilee Singers awakened such interest in Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, nearly sixty years ago. Hundreds of thousands of people in the North knew the spirituals before this century dawned, and they knew them because of the white Northern teachers who went into Southern Negro schools and ostracism. They had a beautiful volume of spirituals at Calhoun Colored School twenty years ago. Miss Scarborough had to study at Cambridge to find out what was at her back door. But she has generously given the Negro his due, and we rejoice at her help in bringing him into his own. --- ago and compared them with the present day situation. Not a change in the Nordic idea. When the little mulat-to lad, in the picture, plead with the aristocratic white judge to give him a chance to study law; the identical reply fell upon his youthful cars: "Colored men do not practice law successfully." No opportunity. The door was closed in his eager face. It was necessary to cross the "color line" to attain his goal. Here was a lad free, yet a slave! A citizen, yet denied the rights of citizenship. Today, there are other lads with a heritage of labor and patience who must listen to the same cry: "Colored men cannot plead law successfully: cannot practice medicine successfully: cannot teach school successfully: cannot control business enterprises successfully. And yet the "lie" is hurled into the Nordic's face day after day and still he will not be convinced. Whether evolutionary or revolutionary, this obnoxious myth must be destroyed, and intelligent, educated. Negro manhood stands ready to battle against the gigantic bulwarks of bigoted prejudice to insure real merit of justice for the black youths of generations yet unborn. Plan Association to Study African Mind An Association for the Study of African Languages is projected, according to J. Withers Gill, writing in the British Empire Supplement of The Outlook, of London, or Sept. 4, and the work of such an association he holds could not fail to throw light upon African psychology. "The conditions under which the mind of a typical African Negro works appear to us in aopsy-curvy light," writes Mr. Gill. "In material matters he is shrewd, sullen and childish; in spiritual matters he dwells in a state of panic. But sit down in a native court of jurisdiction, where the procedure is in the hands of a tribal chief and his counselors, and where the 'case law' is represented by some oral tradition or more often by a familiar folk talk. "You will marvel at the simple practical justice of the verdict, which may frequently be according to what the lion said or the elephant did in some worn-out table called from the lore of the folk. How much more genuine and effective is the equity of these judgments than those given under the elaborate procedure of alien courts adapted to a different stage of civilization where a high standard of evidence is imposed? Evidence of this latter character is readily obtained by jacobery or purchase at so much a head. With ease it decries the European but not the native judge who knows the mentality of his fellow men. Talk to natives in their own tongue, free from the restraints of official etiquette, and the shrewdness of their arguments and the keenness of their insight into the mental processes of their fellows will astonish you. If the superior person Blessings of Segregated Schools By WILLIAM PICKENS Arguments seem to count little with some people. But certainly facts ought to count with any same man. Those who want to find out for certain just how blessed it is to Negro children and teachers to be in "their own" separate schools in the South, or elsewhere, should read the article in September Crisis on the schools of Georgia. Georgia is a typical southern state; segregation is well established there. Just let any Negro "leader" who is trying to lead his people into separate school systems in Ohio, Illinois, or anywhere else read those facts and figures in the September Crisis and see what he is leading toward. Read those figures on page 253, or on any other page of that remarkable disclosure of facts, and see that the "separate" Negro schools in Georgia, where the colored people and children are nearly half the total population, get less than one dollar out of ten for their education.

The chief causes of death today are heart disease, the pneumonias (broncho-pneumonia, pleuropneumonia, lobar pneumonia), cancer, violence and tuberculosis. There are many factors that have contributed to this remarkable decline in its frequency. Tuberculosis is a germ disease, which develops and grows worse under debilitating conditions of dirt, darkness, dampness, lack of sunshine, pure air and a certain amount of leisure. The working class, because of better living conditions, better wages, better and more sanitary homes and a shorter working day, is in a better economic and improved healthy environment today than, say, forty years ago. Educationally and economically, therefore, the working class has improved to a standard where cleanliness, fresh air, sunshine and some leisure are common and considered necessary. port, the woman with the strain of pregnancy and child-bearing—these cares and burdens come in the full bloom of maturity from twenty to forty years age. It is This general improvement has lessened the occurrence and the growth of tuberculosis. It is the result of the campaign of health education. Periodic examinations of the lungs, the heart, the kidneys, the blood, have detected in many people the early beginnings of some deyitalizing disease, in which an early treatment and advice stopped the disease and brought the persons back to normal health. Tuberculosis is one of the diseases that develops slowly and unknown to the person. Many persons are infected with it in childhood. In fact, most people some time in their life have been infected with tuberculosis germs. The germs within the body will either die or live. If the tissues of the body are strong, and the person lives in a healthy environment, the tubercular germs will soon die. If the body tissues are weak, and the person lives in unhealthy surroundings, the tubercular germs will live, grow, multiply and finally produce weakness, fever, night-sweats, loss of blood, cough-active tuberculosis. Tuberculosis has three stages of development—the early or first stage, a second stage, and a third stage. When it is detected in the first stage, with proper treatment many, many cases will get well. Never let it go into the second or third stage. To detect the disease in the first stage frequent examinations are necessary. Always live in clean, healthy surroundings; be in the open as much as possible. Sunshine, fresh air and lack of physical and mental strain are the three things which will do much to prevent tuberculosis from developing. Many cases of tuberculosis become active because of severe physical and mental strain, Overstrain, therefore, should be avoided. Endeavor to keep your reserve strength. Late hours and loss of sleep, excessive drinking, indiscriminate sexual indulgences are the excesses that produce an overstrain to the body and lower its vitality.

All of these management and mismanagement salaries and expenses go to the whites. Where there are segregated schools for Negroes, the Negro school gradually becomes a school only in name—a sort of excuse to say to the outside world: "Yes, we have schools for the Negroes. The only reason why they are not up with the white people in intelligence and education is their natural inferiority, you see." They know that they are lying, and that in truth they are robbing and limiting the Negro schools that even if blacks were superior by nature, they would still have to remain inferior in educational attainments. Where there are separate schools for Negroes, those Negroes enjoy just one equality in the school system; the equal right to pay the taxes for the support of the whole school system, and mainly to educate white people. 1890 About Tuberculosis a prevalent and deadly malady, been reduced in fifty years from among the now most frequent chief causes of death today are (broncho-pneumonia, pleuro- cancer, violence and tuber- that have contributed to this frequency, disease, which develops and long conditions of dirt, darkness. are air and a certain amount of use of better living conditions. are sanitary homes and a shorter economic and improved healthy forty years ago. port, the woman with the strain of pregnancy and child-bearing—these cares and burdens come in the full bloom of maturity from twenty to forty years age. It is therefore necessary if one desires to have the strength for these legitimate burdens, that he or she conserve his or her strength in the adolescent and early adult years. It is only by such a method that tuberculosis is avoided during the stress and strain of adult life. Fewer Negroes, More Whites in Georgia Jails ATLANTA, Ga., Sept. 23—That the Negro population of Georgia is becoming more law abiding and the white population less so is indicated by a study of the county jails of the State just made, by Miss Rhoda Kaufman, secretary of the State Department of Public Welfare. The study shows that in the last four years the number of Negroes in Georgia jails has decreased 17 per cent, while the number of white inmates has increased 30 per cent. 1 "Some years ago there were on the average two Negroes in jail for each white man," says Miss Kaufman's report, "while now the numbers are almost equal. This is still too high a proportion of Negroes, since the colored population of the State constitutes only about 40 per cent of the total." Continuing, Miss Kaufman says: "The State Department of Public Welfare is working hard to improve conditions in the jails for white and colored prisoners alike. In about 100 counties local committees of interested citizens have been appointed by the Department to make regular inspections of the jails in the effort to see that the prisoners have clean, healthful living conditions and a sufficiency of good food. ```markdown ``` "From literature furnished by the Department these consults study the best thought and experience in jail construction, equipment and management, and measure their own jails by the most approved standards. They then make reports and recommendations to the officials responsible for jail maintenance and management. They are accomplishing great good through cooperation with county officials and by the stimulation of public interest in this subject." Negro Tradésmen WASHINGTON.—Taking into consideration the fact that time-training and reasonably cheap commercial loans are highly essential to the conduct of successful business enterprises, and that Negroes have had but a short experience in the development of such financial reservoirs as banks and insurance companies upon which our trained and progressive men can draw for the purpose of financing their business ventures and commercial expansion, it is rather encouraging to note the number of colored persons who are entitled as retail dealers in everything from agricultural implements to zithers. The United States Census of 1920 reported 23,526 Negro road dealers, among whom were 516 grocers; 3,009 burbers and more dealers; 910 druggists; 851 proprietors of general stores; 576 who conducted candy and confectionery stores; 362 dealers in dry goods, fancy goods and notions; 141 dealers in shoes and shoes; and 128 men who specialized in clothing and men's furnishing goods. There were also 34 department stores. These pioneers are paving the way for our greater participation in commercial affairs.
