WILLS LOSES FIGHT TO JACK SHARKEY IN 13TH THIRD ANNUAL CONCERT & RECEPTION o SISTERHOOD AND BROTHERHOOD OF Colorful News "Movies" By THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE Negro Death Rate WHEN, about a month ago, Statistician Charles E. Hall, of the United States Census Bureau, startled the Negro world with his statistical exposition of the high death rate of our group, not a few sand-seekers put on dark glasses and declared they could not see Hall's figures; that exaggeration beset the earnest expert's attempt: to point out the shadow of death enshrouding the ranks of the race, and that there was no cause for alarm. We wonder what these zealots are saying now since the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company has made the startling announcement that "tuberculosis mortality among the more than Two Million Negro industrial policy-holders in 1925 was approximately Three Times That for the White." The Metropolitan death survey went a step further by showing that "the East South Central states proved the highest of all in tuberculosis death rate." The company also found that the death rate from this cause among its 7,000 Negro policy-holders in Canada was only 138.3 per 100,000, as compared with 227.0 in the United States. Here are conclusive facts, which should bring both chagrin and pride to the good people of the U. S. A. white and colored, and in the latter they should stimulate the desire to eschew the "forget me" spirit and seize tuberculosis preventives by the forelock. That the Negro death rate should be so high and appalling in the East South Central states is quite unnecessary. If the Christian people would begin to treat the Negro as an integral part of America's social life, eligible to receive, indiscriminately, the health adjuncts and community benefits of national life, rather than segregated utilities which, for the Negro, are always inferior. The very fact that 7,000 Negro holders of Metropolitan policies, who have crossed the cold Canadian border, are living to the time of the low death rate of 133.3 per 100,000, is sufficient to prove that the talk about the Negro being unified to cope with the ice, snow and cold of the North is all applesauce. Too, it is proof that where public health utilities are available to all the people of the same (Confirmed 1st Page Second Section) Three Held as Auto Thieves Bail for Each Suspect Set at $5,000 — Plead Not Guilty Three men and a youth were held in $5,000 bail each for a further hearing on charges of stealing automobiles when they were arraigned in the Washington Heights Court, Monday, before Magistrate Rosenbluth.

According to information gathered by Detective Scott of the West 135th street station, the two men were at a dance at 9 W. 135th street. Sunday night. They were both making love to the same woman without either one of them having knowledge of it. Arnold became suspicious of Mills and it is claimed that he left the place and returned within a few minutes under the influence of liquor. As he observed Mills showing his girl friend with attention he asked for an explanation, it is claimed. One word brought on another and finally, the men began to exchange blows. Suddenly Arnold whipped out a knife, it is alleged, and began, slashing Mills. Some one rushed out and notified the police. Detective Scott accompanied by several other officers rushed to the scene. rushed to the office. When Arnold was arraigned Monday, the officer said that Mills was in a serious condition. NAL CONCERT & RECEPTION AND BROTHERHOOD --- Negro, Not White, Women Need Protection Following William Pickens, Field Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., who later nailed, in the columns of the N. Y. Tribune, the old lie that white women cannot walk with safety in the South for fear of attack, a white woman has written to the same newspaper. This woman, Dr. Carrie K. Barlett, not only reports that for years she taught and moved freely among Negroes in Arkansas and North Carolina without ever receiving anything but courteous treatment and assistance, but adds that it is the colored women who fear attack from white men, not the white women who need to fear attack from Negroes. Says Dr. Barlett: "I never received from a Negro man or woman anything but the most perfectly courteous treatment, but I learned from the colored maids of the friend with whom I was living of a situation for which I wish we might find a remedy. These colored women are afraid to go on the streets alone after dark for fear of attack by white men. Most of the maids go home at night. They believe that they do not have as good police protection as do white women, and for mutual protection get together and go home in groups. It seems to me that it is the colored, not the white, women of the South for whose safety we should be concerned." DETECTIVES DIVORCES. INVESTIGATIONS.

Arrested on a charge of felonious assault Mrs. Lowney was arraigned in the Washington Heights Court Friday morning on the complaint of the mother of Charles White, who is Mrs. Sarah White, 129 W. 137th street, and was held in $1,000 ball to await the action of the Grand Jury. She waived the examination in the magistrate's court. According to the story of Mrs. Lowney as told to Officer Mappos of the Children's Society, Charles has had a habit of following her daughter and annoying her every afternoon when she returns from school. Thursday afternoon the girl told her mother that the boy had followed her home and that he was on their stoop. She then went down stairs, it is alleged, where she found the boy scaled on the stoop. She ordered him away and asked him not to molest her daughter. As the boy got up he lifted his hands and Mrs. Lowney said that she thought he was going to strike her. With the intention of protecting herself, Mrs. Lowney stated that she struck at the boy with the hand in which she was holding a glass dish. The blow landed on the right side of his face. Charles told an altogether different story to the officer. He said that Mrs. Lowney grabbed and held him in her arm while she jabbed him in the face with the dish until it broke. H.

Railroad Pounced Upon by Several Men at 117th Street and Lenox Avenue After he was beaten up by a group of white rifflers on the corner of 117th street and Lenox avenue Sunday night, Robert Bailey, waiter on the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, who lives at 42 Batavia street, Boston. Mass., was himself arrested and accused with felonious assault. Herman Liebowitz, white, 18 Bay street, Brooklyn, made the complaint. He said that Bailey stabbed him while he was standing in a group listening to the defendant arguing with another man. Attorney Richard L. Cunningham, who was secured to represent Bailey, brought out on the cross-examination of Detective Boyle of the West 123d Street Station that the complainant falsely testified in several instances. The officer said that when he arrived at the scene Bailey took a small penkwife out of his pocket and gave it to him. The knife showed no signs of being used to slash the complainant, the officer testified. The white man said that he and a companion were on their way to the West 15th street subway station when they observed two men engaged in a dispute on the corner.

Tenn., Oct. 11. — Officers Saturday found the body of Herbert Bell, about thirty years old, who was taken from jail at Dover, Tenn., the night before and lynched, hanging from a tree near the scene where Rufus Joyner, forty years old, a white farmer, was slain last Sunday. The body was riddled with bullets. Four unmasked armed men gained admittance last Friday night to the Stewart County fail at Dover, where Bell was held, charged with the murder of the farmer. They overpowered Sheriff L. L. Ellis and forced Bell and the Sheriff to cross the Cumberland River on a ferry to the north side, where they joined an unmasked mob estimated at seventy or eighty men and left the Sheriff. The man was carried about ten miles away and lynched. He was praying as the men took him from the fall and kept up his prayers. Sheriff Ellis went back across the river to the scene of the lynching to conduct an investigation. Bell's wife, Mrs. Goldie Bell, gave testimony against her husband at a preliminary hearing before two magistrates at Dover Tuesday. The farmer was beaten to death. The theory of the police is that Bell and the white farmer got into an argument over a crap game which led to the murder of the late Preliminary Examination for West Point Academy An order providing for the preliminary examination to be held November 5 and 6, 1926, for the purpose of selecting candidates from among the enlisted men of the National Guard of this State to take the regular entrance examination to the United States Military Academy, West Point, N.

Entrance to the office was gained through the West 136th street alley, and a key was used to open the door. Last year the church was robbed of $105 in cash belonging to the poor. RENAISSANCE ---1926 CASINO GI, OCT. 18 RENA CA Granting of New Trial to Trio Previously Convicted of Slaying Sheriff Fires Murderous Spirit —One Victim a Woman —All of Some Family AIKEN, S. C., Oct. 17. At 3:45 o'clock Thursday morning a masked mob of between 100 and 105 men overpowered the jailor and sheriff at the county jail and lynched Clarence and Demond Lowman and their sister. Bertha, charged with the murder of Sheriff Henry H. Howard in April of 1925. The victims had been once tried and convicted, the two men being sentenced to death and the woman to life imprisonment. The State Supreme Court reversed this verdict and ordered a new trial, which started early last week in General Sessions Court. Judge Lanham, who presided, directed the return of a verdict of not guilty in the case of Demmond Lowman, one of the defendants, and this action apparently brought on the lynching. Demmond Lowman was killed with a shotgun, while the other victims, his brother Clarence and sister Bertha, were shot to death with revolvers. They apparently were released, ordered to run, and shot down as they fled. Immediately following news of the mob outbreak, Judge Lanham convened the Grand Jury in special session and ordered the most searching inquiry possible. A Coroner's jury endeavored to ascertain the identity of the lynchers, but returned the usual verdict that "they came to their death at the hands of unknown parties." The mob carried the three prisoners through the section of the city that colored people are in and out beyond the city limits and there shot them to death. Each of the prisoners was shot in the face and chest. Testifying at the opening of the Coroner's inquest Friday afternoon, Sheriff Robinson and the jailer Rupert Taylor, said that none of the men wore the regalia of the Ku Klux Klan, but that they had their faces blackened and wore handkerchiefs and masks to conceal their features. Charged With Sheriff Murder. Sheriff Howard, a member of the Klan, was slain by a load of shot fired into his back while he and his deputies were raiding the house of Sam Lowman, father of the three victims. Deputy Sheriff Robinson, now Sheriff, was beaten about the head and face. Annie Lowman, wife of Sam, was shot dead by Deputy Sheriff Shephard when she attacked him with an axe. When the trio lynched Thursday was arrested at the time of the Sheriff's murder a great crowd gathered at the jail, but Deputy Sheriff Robinson begged that the law be allowed to take its course, and there was no further demonstration.

ACCUSED OF KILLING HUSBAND Death Writes Final Chapter in Domestic Row; Man Dies of Wounds Death Writes Final Chapter in Domestic Row; Man Dies of Wounds Felonious Assault Charge Against Mrs. Mary Shandle, Slain Man's Wife, Changed to Homicide Arraigned Several Times Death wrote "finis" Saturday to one more of Harlem's innumerable domestic wrangles. As a result, Mrs. Mary Shandle, 29, was arraigned in Washington Heights Court shortly after and held without bail on a homicide charge, for a hearing in the Homicide Court. Early Saturday her husband, Row Shandle, succumbed to stab wounds in Harlem Hospital. For four weeks he had lain in a state of cona, while physicians and the police anxiously awaited the outcome of his fight for life. IWO Meantime, Mrs. Shandle was in prison on a felonious assault charge. A few hours after the death of her husband she was brought before Magistrate Goodman, the assault case against her was dismissed, and on a warrant sworn to by Detective Crestiano, of the West 135th street station, she was rearrested and arraigned on the homicide charge. It was her fourth arraignment in connection with the case. Until Sept. 11 last the Shandles lived together in an apartment at 341 West 133d street, near Eighth avenue. The police say their married life had been anything but roseate. On the afternoon of Sept. 11, according to the police, the couple engaged in a particularly furious dispute. Shortly thereafter Shandle left the apartment and was walking on 131st street between Seventh avenue and Lenox avenue. Sunddenly rushing up to him, according to other pedestrians who looked on astounded, a woman came, brandishing a large kitchen knife in her hand. Without warning, she began plunging the knife into the man's body. Shandle sank to the sidewalk, bleeding profusely from knife wounds in his left side and chest. Several persons who had seen the incident hurried to him and summoned an ambulance. He was taken to Harlem Hospital in a critical condition. The woman escaped in the confusion. Shortly after the attack on Shandle the police arrested his wife, charging her with the offense. She has been arraigned before three different magistrates on as many occasions, each time her case being adjourned when sworn statements were introduced from physicians attending Shandle, saying they were unable to ascertain whether he would live or die. He sank gradually until early Saturday morning, when he suddenly took a turn for the worse and, shortly after, succumbed. When brought into court, evidences of the strain of jail life showed plainly on her. In tears, she reiterated former statements that she had nothing to do with the attack on her husband. That she was at the time in the vicinity in which the assault was committed was a more coincidence, she said.

Six heavily armed deputies stood behind the prisoners when they were first arraigned, but later, as all seemed to be peaceful, this precaution was discarded. No extra guards were placed about the fall, as was the case when the Lowmans were first arrested. New York Democrat Urges Anti-Lynching Law WASHINGTON. Oct. 11.—Federal anti-lynching legislation was advocated Saturday in a statement by Representative Loring M. Black, Jr. Democrat, of New York. He said: "The recent lynching of three people, one a woman, by a Klan-infested mob, shows the necessity for a Federal anti-lynching law. Such lawlessness should not be tolerated in a free country. Such blood-lust tends to disrupt the unity of America and is destructive of a national spirit of harmony." President Coolidge was asked to denounce lynching and to do his utmost to prevent further manifestations of mob violence in a telegram sent him Saturday night by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, whose headquarters are at 69 Fifth avenue, New York City. The message was signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the association. It read: "Lynching of three Negroes in custody of officers of the law at Alken, S.

Attorney Cunningham debated for the privilege of putting his client and witnesses on the stand. This was denied. The counsellor then prevailed upon the court to allow him to outline the defense. Bailey, he said, came into the city Sunday night and had gone to his rooming place on Seventh avenue by 10 p. m. Shortly after 11 p. m. he decided he wanted an early edition of a newspaper to read about the world series. He went to 116th street and Lenox avenue, which is near his rooming place, to purchase a paper. On his way back home a man pounced upon him and several others followed suit, the lawyer explained. One of the gangsters yelled "He's not the man," but it was too late to check the violent spirit of the gang. One of the villains grabbed Bailey around the neck and while another punched him, still another slashed at him with a knife. Instead of striking Bailey, the ruffian landed the blow on the man's arm who was holding him, the attorney pointed out.

Insurance Policy concealer of the Knights of Pythias, with 2,615,510 votes, won the first prize, a free trip round the world and $150 in cash. Threatening the leader throughout eight months of the contest, taking the lead himself in June, is Dr. William P. Harris, youthful director of the Improved Order of Samaritans, Athens, Ga., whose 2,672,500 votes earned for him the second prize, a free trip around the round and $100 in cash. Catching the larger vision in the three months of the contest and permitting his organization to throw itself unreservedly behind him, B. P. Collier, of Philadelphia, grand chancellor of the Knights of Pythias of Pennsylvania, with 1,825,500 votes, swept over the top to win third prize, a free trip around the world and $50 in cash. Like a meteor sweeping up from the rear came C. C. Spaulding, president of the N. C. Mutual Life Insurance Co., and of the N. C. Baptist Sunday School Convention, who with 1,708,355 votes surpassed previous adversaries and won the fourth prize, a free trip around the world. Upholding the honor of womanhood and campaigning on that platform, Mrs. Emma E. Ingram, executive of St. Paul Mite Missionary Society, with 1,637,000 votes, earned the fifth prize, one free two years' scholarship of $500 value. Completing the list of winners of de luxe prizes and sticking within prize winning range throughout the contest, the Rev. W. H. Jernagin, NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 13, 1926 president of the National Race Congress, the Baptist convention in the District of Columbia and vice-president of the National Baptist Convention, Inc., with 1,601,480 votes earned the sixth prize, one year's free scholarship of $250 value. Eight other candidates won district prizes of $50 and $25 and all other candidates not winning any prizes earned a commission on all votes turned in.

Loaf 10c With That Real Home-Made Flavor Has Man Nabbed She Says Is Thief Alleged Hallway Robber Held in Bail for the Grand Jury After six weeks had elapsed from the time a man met her in the hallway of her apartment and held up and taken $5, Mrs. Penelope Wilkins, 102 W. 143d street, picked him out on the street and charged him with robbery Monday morning in the Washington Heights Court. Satisfied with the evidence produced by the complainant and her witnesses, Magistrate Rosenbluth held Alfred De Silva, 32, 321 W. 139th street, in $10,000 ball to await the action of the Grand Jury. Last August, Mrs. Wilkins said, she was entering her apartment building when the defendant approached her and at the point of a huge knife forced her to give him her pocketbook. As the man left the place, she said, she yelled "Murder" in order to arouse other tenants in the building. Running close behind the man other tenants joined her in the chase, she said. As they reached the corner of 133th street and Lenox avenue the man jumped into a taxicab and escaped. While she was shopping on Eighth avenue last week, Mrs. Wilkins testified that she saw the man. When she recognized him, she said, he darted behind a taxicab standing on the avenue. Mrs. Wilkins said that she then called a policeman and had the man arrested. According to the police the prisoner has a previous record. Death Leap From Bridge Frustrated Abraham Johnson, 33, 100 West 124th street, who attempted to commit suicide Saturday by jumping off the Brooklyn Bridge, has been confined to Bellevue Hospital for observation. He was prevented from leaping from the center span of the bridge by a policeman, a fireman and four citizens who fought desperately with him. Johnson was a passenger on a Manhattan-bound Flushing avenue B-M. T. trolley car. As the car neared the center of the bridge the man leaped to the roadway and began scrambling over the rail. The motorman jerked the car to a stop and four passengers and a city firemen lunged for the man. Johnson fought furiously with his rescuers for a few minutes. Not until Policeman Fruin, of the Bridge Precinct, rushed up was he subdued. An ambulance from Beekman Street Hospital answered the summons of the policeman, and took Johnson to Bellevue Hospital.

It's hell here." Says His Life Was Threatened Accused Man Held in Bail for the Grand Jury Jury Accused with threatening the life of his landlord with a big army revolver, Essie McLain, 400 W. 153d street, was held in $3,500 ball to await the action of the Grand Jury when he was arraigned before Magistrate Rosenbluth in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning. Benjamin Lockett, 400 W. 153d street, janitor, who made the complaint, said that McLain chased him for several blocks with the revolver. The compainant said that the prisoner flashed the revolver after he had resented the loud and bolsterous noises that McLain was making. Patrolman Ross of the West 152d Street Station said that he found the revolver in a St Nicholas avenue apartment where McLain had chased Lockett. The officer said that McLain admitted to him that the weapon had been sent to him by his wife from South Carolina. On the cross-examination of the complaining witness the counsel for the defendant attempted to establish an alibi that the charge was a frame-up because of McLian's-alleged relation with the complainant's wife.

Harold Crichton-Browne in the London Daily Mail. These fashions were I recollect, in vogue among the dusky ladies at the court of Lobengula at Bulawayo some forty years ago. Some of the Matabele beauties had their hair beautifully shingled and waved, the wave, however, being of the wild variety and not artificially produced. They had no tufts over the cars and were, therefore, in complete compliance with what I understand to be the "Eton crop" of today. Many of them wore a bandeau about an inch deep composed of many colored beads, in different designs, bound round the head, while among the hair were feathers of ee eaters' tails. A Matabele queen's mark of distinction was unique. All the queens shaved their heads and wore at the back a small inverted cup of about one and a half inches in diameter, made of red beads. Round the waist they wore a kilt of ox hide falling to the knees. In the matter of heads, necklaces and bangles, too, our women seem to have taken a leaf out of the Matabele book. There were no strings of opulent pearls at Bulaway, but all the women wore strings of beads, necklaces of beads and lions' teeth, and bangles of ivory, horn, copper and brass wire. But they had a custom which has not yet reached this country—that of wearing bangles round the ankle, calf of the leg and thigh, often with little bells attached to the ankle bangles, so that, like the Lady of Banbury Cross, they might have music wherever they went, and especially in dancing, in which both at day and night clubs, they vigorously engaged. In the constantly increasing exposure of surface our women seem to be approximating to the Matabele women of former days. The Matabele wore short black skirts made of wrought ox hide, leaving no necessity for "speculating about the knees." The clooche or beret was not unknown in Matabele long ago; some of the young girls wore a small knitted cap of colored wool, with a tuff at the top. I am quite sure it did not cost the Matabele belles $150 or $200 a year for shingling. "Old Maid" Vanishing. Woman Professor Says CHICAGO. Oct. 4. "The old maid" is disappearing, thanks to higher learning, says Dr. Nancy E. Scott of the Kalamazoo (Mich.) Normal School. The extra learning has not caused women to desire professional careers rather than a home, Dr. Scott says, but, on the contrary, has better fitted them for home responsibilities. Those who remain unmarried are not mentally incapable, but personally as attractive as their married sisters, but refuse to be stamped into marriage on the theory that odium is attached to the term "old maid." Fashion Hints In the coat line luxurious Bollias in deep rich tones and sport plaid fabrics are being worn. They are trimmed with flattering fur collars. The "tie-about" tam in velvet is banded with grosgrain ribbon, which crosses in back in two long loose ends. These ends are knotted in the front to suit the wearers own individuality. "MY old stand-by is Theodford's Black-Draught—I have used it off and on for about 20 years," says Mr. W. S. Raynolds, of R. F. D. 2, Arcadia, La. "I get bilious and have a bad taste in my mouth. My head feels dull. I don't just feel like getting around and doing my work. I know it isn't laziness, but biliousness. "So I take a few doses of Black-Draught and when it acts well, I get up feeling like new—full of pep and ready for any kind of work. "I can certainly recommend it." In case of biliousness and other disagreeable conditions due to constipation, Black-Draught helps to drive the poisonous impurities out of the system and tends to leave the organs in a state of normal healthy activity. Black-Draught is made entirely of pure medicinal roots and herbs and contains no dangerous or harmful mineral drugs. It can be safely taken by everyone. Sold everywhere. Price 25c. Thedford's BLACK-DRAUGHT Purely Vegetable BEAUTY FASHION HOUSEHOLD HINTS Locked-up Treasures THERE is a little chest where women keep Golden treasures locked away; They take them out sometimes when shadows creep At twilight's edge o' day. Strangers would view them in mute surprise; They'd never, never guess Wherein the beauty of those treasures lies— Their worth and preciousness. A moonlight walk; vows old, but fresh and clear; A kiss: love's ecstasy; Laughter of children; such the flotsam dear On which they turn the key. JULIA W. WOLFE. Beauty Secrets By Mme. Sara Washington The manicurist can keep the nails well shaped and polished, but the readily detected diseases of the nails are generally beyond the manicurist's power of treatment. Your health and blood condition are responsible for diseased nails, and the following are excerpts from a text book of a well known New York college of beauty culture: Most every disease of the nails arises from some blood disorder. When the nail is rigid, it denotes nervousness; when brittle it denotes weakness and poor circulation. When the nail is bluish and has no polish it denotes a sluggish condition of the heart. Warmth and high polish prove good health. When the nails look as if they are swollen and rise above the finger, there are symptoms of tuberculosis, but this does not come under the scope of the manicurist, so far as treatment is concerned. Hyperthrophy means enlarging. Oftentimes nervous diseases as eczema and serofula are carried to the skin by the vascular system and may cause a large condition of the nail. While the main body of the nail has an enlarged appearance, beneath the nail will be found a horny or callous condition of the cuticle. Such nails may be improved by oiling the cuticle slightly and keeping the free edge filed deep in the corners so as to give an oval appearance rather than a blunt edge. BEAUTY ANSWERS. Mme. Washington will answer questions concerning beauty sent to her by the readers of the Amsterdam News, Address Mme. Washington. The Amsterdam News, 2293 Seventh avenue, New York, N. Y. State request plainly, and send stamped addressed envelope. Mrs. Mae Miller; As eczema always implies a lack of vital powers, poor blood, poor nerves or bad digestion and unhealthy skin, a corrected diet of pure air and rest, together with mild shampoos of eggs and castile soap and an occasional oil treatment with pure olive oil has been adopted with considerable success. Always remember that the use of lemon, vinegar and even tar soaps or oils exaggerate instead of soothe in cases of eczema. That Baby You've Longed For That Baby You've Longed For Mrs. Burton Advises Women on Motherhood and Companionship. "For several years I was dented the blessing of motherhood." writes Mrs. Margaret Burton, of Kansas City, Missouri, a former teacher and a period of terrible suffering and melancholia. Now I am the proud mother of a beautiful little daughter and a true companion. I am grateful for the kindness I received hundreds of other women would like to know the secret of my happiness, and I will gladly reveal it to any Mrs. Burton. I will also advise entirely without charge. She has nothing to sell. Letters should be addressed to Mrs. Margaret Burton, of Kansas City, Missouri. Correspondence will be strictly confidential. APEX PRODUCTS The World's best Hair Preparations AOBIN IS WANTED MAKE ALL ORDERS DELIVERED TO THE APEX HAIR CO. The Permanent Hair Colour LOOK FOR THE APEX TRIANGLE Artie A. V. Atlantic City, N. J. THE FIRST WALL CLEANER NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 13, 1926 Household Hints To remove vegetable stains from your fingers dip them in very strong tea for a few minutes and then wash them in clear, warm water. Egg stains on table linen should be soaked in cold water before sending the linen to the laundry. The stains are easily removed when treated in this way. Hot water "sets" them and makes them difficult to remove. The continual ripping off of buttons by the clothes wringer can be prevented by folding the buttons inside the garment and holding it flat as you turn it through the wringer. Roughness on the top of the kitchen store may be removed by using sandpaper. Do this before putting on blacking. Lace that is strong and whole, but soiled or stained, may be dyeed a pretty color by steeping it in ten and ironing it while damp. If all dislaccloths are soaped and well rinsed out every time they are used there will be no trouble at all in keeping them clean. It is much wiser to have three or four clothes to use than one or two stained and greasy ones. Longing HAVE always been thought good. The right sort . I have stood looking out. Upon the sea. My hair is neatly braided. I stand in the oncoming wind. But I do not feel tendrils of hair upon my face. My hair is neatly braided. I wish that I could unlose my hair And let the black masses blow in the wind; I would wear a long, clinging gown Down to the sea and stand alone-- Not even a hobbing log or a ship in sight. I wanted to give myself to you. But I could not. My ancestors were men who sailed the sea. The sort who choked their hearts and grew silent. Their women, who are my mothers, watched the sea; When storms broke they sat quietly and prayed. and they broke their beads. Someone they broke their beads. But they never cried out. I am the daughter of such people. I am not free. To give in joyous abandon, as may some women. I leash my feelings to my soul and endure The aching of my heart. I live in my mind . . .

EXELEXENT MEDICINE CO. Atlanta. AGENTS WANTED EVERYWHERE THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT THE Florence Nightingale of America—Louisa Lee Schuyler—is dead. This woman, the founder of the New York State Charities Aid Association and of the first training school for nurses in the United States, was the great-granddaughter of Alexander Hamilton. She lacked only fifteen days of being eighty-nine years old. Her life, one of the many that exemplify what a woman can do, was a life of service. It was she who organized the first committee of physicians and hymen for the prevention of blindness, and later established the Society for the Prevention of Blindness. In 1915 Columbia University conferred upon Miss Schuyler the degree of Doctor of Laws, the second time in its history that Columbia gave this degree to a woman. All of us cannot be Louisa Schuylers. In the first place, we do not have her millions for philanthropic disposal. We, however, can have her courage, her attitude toward the unfortunate, her desire to serve. In every sense of the word was the late Louisa L. Schuyler an altruist—T. E. B. Suggestions Potato and Pea Salad.

Dr. FALK The Cook Says When making meringue add one teaspoon of cold water and one-quarter teaspoon of cream of tartar to the white of egg and beat well until it stands up lightly. A block of paper in the kitchen on which to jot down needed household articles is a great help. Cook strong flavored vegetables, such as cauliflower, cabbage and onions, in an uncovered saucepan. Adding plitted prunes to gingerbread batter improves the gingerbread. Plitted prunes, instead of raisins, cut in small pieces and added to the last kneading of bread make a very delicious bread. When plates and dishes have to be warmed on an oven top or in an oven, if a newspaper is put under it will prevent cracking. Always put a piece of crust into the frying pan before frying fish. This prevents the fat from sputtering and making the stove greasy, and shows by its brown color just when the fat is at the right heat for the fish to be put in.

The opening sermon was delivered by the pastor, the Rev. Dr. Sylvester L. Corrothers, from the text: "Arise and build and throw off the reproach of Egypt." The sermon was one of the most dogmatic and sensational that has been heard in these parts for a long time. The preacher said, in part: "Slavery and ignorance affected all members of the human race in the same way we had always the majority of the people, the idea of the inferiority of the slave, he said that this reproach had not been thrown off by the inculition and building of certain fundamental principles within the s "The Negro in order to destroy the belief in the soul of the white man of inferiority would have to race. There must be a higher moral standard built up, both for the home and for the church. There must be a sacrificial effort on the part of the Negro leaders, in the hands of the Negroes themselves of immorality. And the Negro boys must be taught that the virtues of their sisters are sacred. They talk, to talk of building up a great race upon a rotten foundation. The foundation of all that is substantial, lasting and perpetual is moral. And there can be no morality unless it is built on spirituality and the fear of God. "The Negro man that occupies the position of husband or father, and the Negro woman who occupies the position of mistress must learn that in order to make a success they must pull together, and both pull in the same direction. "God forbid the day that Negro leaders of this race of ours will discard or lightly esteem the prayers of the African chiefs. The white races of this nation of ours are rapidly degenerating, and the truth is traceable to the fact that they have substituted silver and gold for the fear of God the ease and pleasure for the practice of divine worship and respect for the laws of God. The greatest blunder that has ever been made by any people in the history of the world has left our of their plans the monumental fact that there is a God. "Let us pray that our race group will not be swept into hell by drifting away from the traditions and follow after the vices and collies of the so-called superior races. "The church is the voice of God in the earth and it is the duty of all men throughout the breadth of this land of ours to hold fearless before the people those fundamental ideals approved by lehovah, preach to the people a benediction to mankind, and who by preordination have been charged by the Almighty with the salvation of the human race. Every phase of human life must progress and for human happiness must be proclaimed from the pulpit.

Wrenn, of Anna, Texas. "I was so weak I had to go to bed, and kept getting weaker." "I suffered with my back so much. I was very nervous, couldn't rest good at night. I couldn't eat anything. I just wasn't hungry. I had read so much of cardui, I thought best to use it. I took seven cottle bottles, and by the time I had taken them I was stronger than I had been in several years. I can highly recommend Cardui."

"Every Negro preacher in the land must hold before the present and rising generals the church and the school house are the inseparable "trinity," without which our race group is doomed." The sermon on the whole was a wonderful stroke and the membership was seen in groups discussing Sissouelt Temple is the largest church among the colored people in the State of New Jersey. It has a membership of more than nine hundred. The Temple has become the foundation of Negro inspiration, Negro co-operation, and Negro co-operation. Dr. Corrothers believes that the salvation of the Negro is in his own hands and if the Negro is unharmed it will be his own fault. He concluded the sermon by telling the people that America, in spite of her faults, was the land of unharmed people. He steps to individual or nation that worked in harmony with God would find his place in the sky. Sunday, Oct. 17th, at 11 a.m. his sermon will be the Step Steps to Heaven, which will you take? S. p. m. the subject will be "Prayer is the Secret of Unlimited Success." Dr. Corrothers supported by a board of trustees, ten eny-seven men, twelve classes and fourteen auxiliary and a large choir. Opinion Sustained J. H. G. Corporation The case of the J. H. G. Corporation against the City of Kearney was reviewed last week in Newark Chancery Court. Vice-Chancellor Church sustained the argument advanced by Milton Pinkstein, of counsel for the complaints, that the case of municipality may properly interfere with the rights of a citizen in the enjoyment of his constitutional rights. A permanent infunction was granted the corporation enjoining the City of Kearney from ever molesting the corporation in the enjoyment of the property. The case is not closed, however, for the reason that the City Council of Kearney has approved the $124,000 it obliged, for the purpose of purchasing the property, with two other plots of land adolving. Speaking to a reporter for The Amsterdam News, Mr. Finkelstein said that he had advised his clients to accept $12,000 for the property. If the settlement were not effected this week, Mr. Finkelstein said that he would advise his clients to proceed to build and let the matter drop.

A Danger A Dangerous Habit By ELIZABETH COLE "There is no conversation no sociability, except in spittin fellowship around the stove w Charles Dickens. (and much in his "American Notes" after his 1842. We smile at such a smugly comment on how far a turtur over the nineteenth. And. "There is no conversation, no laughter, no cheerfulness, no sociability, except in spitting, and that is done in silent fellowship around the stove when the meal is over." wrote Charles Dickens (and much more on the same subject) in his "American Notes" after his visit to the United States in 1842. We smile at such a statement nowadays and rather smugly comment on how far advanced is the twentieth century over the nineteenth. And, of course, it is in many ways. But have you ever noticed as you walked along the main streets in your city or town how many deposits of sputum you see on the sidewalk? Not a very pleasant pastime, to be sure, but truth is often unpleasant and this is a truth that needs to be driven home 365 days in the year—namely, that we have not advanced very far in overcoming the dangerous habit of spitting. Aside from the fact that spitting is a thoroughly filthy habit its chief harm lies in the fact that it is one that threatens lives. Young children especially who play ball, roller skate, spin tops or play games on the sidewalks are in danger of picking up disease germs in the dried sputum. It has been found that from seven to ten per cent of the sputum deposits examined in one city contained live tuberculosis, the germs of tuberculosis, influenza, pneumonia, colds measles are other diseases that child children may contract from picking up sputum on their playthings and then conveying the germs to their mouths or the hands. No one can be positive that he is free from disease, for the seemingly well person may be a carrier of germs. Dr. Allen K. Krause of Johns Hopkins Hospital states that during early childhood (from 4 to 7 years) almost half of the infections from tuberculosis occur. This is the age period when children are running about outdoors and can most easily come in contact with disease germs contained in sputum. No one willingly kills a child. It is best to believe that those who carelessly spit on the sidewalk and in public places are ignorant of the serious danger. Until this dangerous as well as dirty habit becomes more universally conquered the campaign to stamp out tuberculosis can not be considered truly successful. The National Tuberculosis Association and its 1,500 state and local associations for the past 20 years have been waging a war against spitting to help in conquering tuberculosis. Their work is financed by the annual sale of the tuberculosis Christmas neaks. You can help to stamp out tuberculosis by buying and using Christmas seals. Dead Father Sends Birthday Message VINELAND, N. J., Oct. 11.—The sixth birthday of John ("Dickie") Stevenson, Jr., white, was Thursday and there came an anniversary message of love and counsel from a father who has gone to his grave.

John Stevenson, "Dickie" father, who was thirty-six years old when he died, last April, was Borough Recorder here and a World War veteran. He was three times gassed and his eyesight impaired during his service in France. "Dickie was allowed to remain home until recently, awaived the arrival of the "poetman." Sure enough, the letter from Daddy to "Dickie" was there. Guests registered here are: I. F. Shaw, Harry H. Johnson, Isadore Martin, Philadelphia; Julia Williams, Mr. and Mrs. L. R.

Mrs. Bullard finally got hold of an ice pick and hurled it at Bullard with nil her strength just as he was leaving by the rear door. She was arrested and held in jail pending the outcome of Bullard's injury. no laughter, no cheerfulness, and that is done in silent when the meal is over." wrote more on the same subject) in visit to the United States in statement nowadays and rather advanced is the twentieth cent of course, it is in many ways. "Dickie" hurried to his room with it for his mother to read to him. Mrs. Stevenson declined to divulge the contents of the letter. "The letters are my son's most precious legacy," she said, "and it is for him to decide whether or not others shall read them when he grows older." Prior to his death last Spring the elder Stevenson penned the letters to his son to guide him through the successive years to manhood. In an affectionate letter appended to his will he informed "Dickie" of them. "The last letter" he wrote, "will be handed to you on the day of your marriage." Provision was also made for messages and gifts to the child on each Easter and Christmas. MORGAN COLLEGE FINISHES REGISTRATION BALTIMORE.

Acid stomachs are dangerous because too much acid irritates the lining to gastrointestinal, often leading to gastrointestinal, accompanied by sorious stomach ulcers. Acid stomachs distract the distressing gas which distends the stomach and hampers the normal functions of the internal organs, often affecting the It is the worst of folly to neglect such a serious condition or the need for adequate acids which have no neutralizing effect on the stomach acids.

Best Amusement Pages in Greater New York SCHIFFMAN STUMPS UNION BY SECURING INJUNCTION Developments of Fight Show That Brecher Interests Have Swung Heavy Artillery Up to the Line and Are at Present Prepared to Battle All Winter Extends Offer to Sign Lafayette Theatre Until Thursday, Although Union Has Put Into Force Its Big Guns Against Other Houses — Chance Offered to Settle Entire Matter by Overtures of Schiffman The Amsterdam News in its last issue gave what we still believe to be a true account of the happenings surrounding the strike of the Motion, 'Lecture Operators' Union and the Brecher interests, with the exception of the statement to the effect that the union started to picket other houses under the control of Mr. Brecher, on which we were misinformed. While it is true that other men were called out at two other houses at the same time that the colored operators came out at the Lafayette, it is not true that these other houses in question were being picketed at the time. Since then, however, these houses are being picketed, but from the outlook of even a disinterested party it would appear that this won't last. STATIONERY, CIGARS, Etc.

Phone — 10489 Audubon Although the musicians were called out of the Lafayette Theatre last week. Mr. Schiffman has secured an injunction which in the future will prevent any move by the union to interfere with musicians at the Plaza and Lafayette Theatres—that is, until such time as the matter goes into court to find out whether said injunction shall be permanent. After reviewing the entire matter, we have come to the conclusion that the happy medium can be reached. Investigation has disclosed that the Brecher interests are prepared to continue this fight for an indefinite period, and as it waxes warmer we, at this time, entertain our doubts of the colored boys getting the best of it in time to come. Mr. Schiffman has personally made an offer to this writer to extend the time limit for accepting the conditions at the Laafyette Theatre, and believing that this would be the first step in laying the foundation for an understanding where the other houses are concerned. we can at this time say to our boys and the union that "collective bargaining" has served its purpose and at least one-side is now showing a tendency to make a move that will bring the opportunity that will be of benefit to all concerned. Even in physical battles between nations there are times when generals must meet and make concessions, one to the other, and in this case we have every reason to believe, since disclosures within the past few days, that the signing of the Lafayette is the first step towards an understanding that will mean much to all. Mr. Schiffman does not ask this from us, but upon our solicitation he has extended the time for accepting the offer to Thursday, October 13. War to us, on the whole, is a failure of diplomacy; but there are men still believing in the principles of what impels nations to this day to send Ministers, Ambassadors, etc., to foreign nations, and if those of us who have been allowed to look deep into this "war" between the union and the Brecher interests can come forward and ask that certain overtures be accepted, it is because we are fully conversant with the matter in hand and feel that the best interests of all will be served. We, at the initial stage of this fight, when the motion picture operators sought justice, took up their cause. We, at this time, believe that these Negroes know we have been for them right along. Upon these grounds, then, can we now rise to say to them that, being in a position to, for the first time, offer any advice in the matter, advise them to consult their co-workers and let the fight, for the time being, be withdrawn under circumstances that will see them back at work "without loss or honor." [From Monday's Daily News] By INDUSTRIALIST. Two temporary injunctions have somewhat deterred the motion picture machine operators' strike, now in progress. The first was secured against a mass meeting of unionists which was to have been held near one of the theatres affected. The other injunction was against the picketing of the Plaza theatre, 59th street and Madison avenue. Union officials announced that, though they had withdrawn pickets in front of the Plaza in obedience to the injunction, picketing was continued in front of other affected theatres. Every effort will be made to keep the injunction from being made permanent, they said. Another official announcement yesterday was that the assailants of Louis Feinstein, motion picture operator and picket who was taken to the City Hospital recently as the result of a beating he received while on picket duty, were known to union officials. "We will leave no stone unturned to prosecute the assailants of Feinstein," a union official said. "They have probably left the city until this thing all blows over, but we'll get them just the same." The Motion Picture Operators' Union is striking for a wage increase and complete unionization of all the theaters in the metropolitan area.

NEWS, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 13, 1926 In Leading Role THE NEW YORK TIMES THE BROOKLYN PRESS Julius Bledsoe Voodoo King in "Deep River" is on the The EWIS, writing in this month's Messes of the most outstanding articles on written... in the face of the call w Lewis on the Theatre THEOPHILUS LEWIS, writing in this month's Messenger Magazine, has contributed one of the most outstanding articles on the Negro Theatre that has ever been written. In the face of the call which has been constantly made by this writer for something uplifting, we consider this article from the pen of Mr. Lewis very timely and hope that it will be digested by those in a position to at least give us surcise from an overabundance of uncouth jazz and naked women. While some of our well-meaning but misguided friends are shouting of what they have contributed. It is well to note that the剧院 under their control come under the head of those catering to what Mr. Lewis has designated as a "deprived part of the public." Truth to tell, the majority of those theatres of which we read weekly in the sundown sheets and near-magazines would be unable to "get from under" in this light castigation of the brilliant Mr. Lewis. Culling from his article a part of his contribution we find him saying: It goes without saying that in a theatre controlled by a mercenary management which caters exclusively to an almost deprived part of the public the kind of performers we usually think of when we use the word "actor" will be few and far between. As this unwholesome condition exists perennially in the Negro Theatre, it will not surprise us to fill the acten with no talent for low comedy and no inclination to trade obscenity for applause, but cherishing instead a decent regard for the profession of Aldrider Betterton, Barrymore and Gilpin, the actor, for instance, like Robeson is virtually barred from practising his profession. Here we come to the fundamental weakness of the Negro theatre—the absence of actors with an understanding of the dignity of their calling. After all it is the actor who makes the theatre. The dramatist endows it with its enduring features and the audience and financial powers can influence it to an extent for better or worse, but it is the actor who finally establishes its contemporary status. The end of all acting is to lure the audience out of itself, to make it forget the ordinary business of life and give its whole interest to the scenes being presented on the stage. But an actor of power and vision will not merely tease an audience out of itself. He will lift the audience above itself, waking up in his spectators latent aspirations and longings for beauty they were not previously conscious of. He will graduate from a demand for a higher standard of entertainment. Such an attitude on the part of the audience reacts on the financial control and results in improving the general tone of the stage. "Actors capable of refining the public taste are never common, not even in the most pulsant periods or the stage. They are never in the majority in any theatre. But unless the personal role of the stage entails an activity which will remain stagnant in the uninspiring matter how free it is of financial restraint and regardless of the culture level of its public. The backward condition of the Negro theatre is at once the result and the proof of the low calibre of colored actors. "The most striking evidence of the general inferiority of Negro actors is the almost total absence of the dramatic actor from the Negro stage. Not only is the talented actor virtually non-existent on its boards, but even mediocre dramatic actors are rare. The best informed colored theatrical observer in America once declared to the writer that if a producer wanted to cast a single play requiring ten characters he would find it impossible to fill the parts with competent players from the ranks of colored professionals. This statement is certainly supported by the fact that recent attempts to organize colored companies the producer has usually recruited his cast from scattered amateur organizations. There is nothing which can be said in extenuation of this condition. It is simply an evidence of the marked lack of virility of the Negro actor and a rebuttal of his vaunted "natural" ability to excel on the stage. "No doubt there are many obstacles in the way of the Negro dramatic actor; the apathy of the public being one, the opposition of managers being another, the style of the theatres still another. But those obstacles are by no means insuperable. A handful of actors of courage and stamina, like Holcroft, the sturdy Englishman, or the robust American, Joseph Jefferson, would certainly have swept aside opposition tenfold as formidable in the course of which Negro actor has been published in the theatre. The Negro actor has been pressured hardness enough to face the grind of perfect selfishness in his art while carrying on a gruelling fight with an indifferent public and hostile managers. Only Gilpin has made the gallant sight of the true knight of the stage. "When we turn to the field of light amusement, the province of the disseur and the low comedian, we see the Negro theatre at its best. Here we find a long roster of performers who challenge comparison with any set of similar performers anywhere. On the top tier stand Florence Mills, Shelton Brooks and Judd. Under them, no creater. In no creater, the Negro in the theatre, and it is with an almost audible AMEN that we append the concluding part of his article which should be read by those interested in the theatre; and we hope there are still The Two New Plays The Two New Plays By CARTY RAUCK "BLACK BOY."

Brusard Hutchins It may be stated at the outset that Paul Robeson, that fine and intelligent Negro actor, is the principal attraction at the Comedy Theatre. "Black Boy" is a sort of hodge-podge garment that has been tailored for Robeson by Jim Tully and Frank Dazey. The latter, by the way, is the son of the man who wrote that famous old melodrama "In Old Kentucky." "Black Boy" is the story of a Negro rousabout who knocks out an aging professional pugilist and is elevated to ring stardom. He becomes the world's heavyweight champion and then, like so many of his race, proceeds to drink himself into an early decline. He falls in love with a woman whom he thinks is white and she, like a modern Delliliah, robs him of his strength by plying him with cheap whiskey until he loses the championship. Then she is sorry and tries to make it up, but in the meantime Black Boy has discovered that she has Negro blood in her, so he discards her and she passes out of the picture swearing at her luck, while Black Boy, once more a wanderer, is preparing to take to the open road once more. That is the story of Black Boy and the play has some tense moments, as, for instance, where the account of Black Boy's losing fight with a hard-hitting Irish newcomer comes over the radio, announced by no less a person than Major J. Andrew White himself. The acting of the little group around the radio made this moment quite thrilling. If "Black Boy" were not distinguished by the presence of this splendid Negro actor, however, it would be quite commonplace and tawdry. Jim Tully, once aighter himself, knows the lingo of the prize ring and he understands the stuff that goes into the making of ring parasites — those human leeches who fatten upon the fastest champion and then promptly desert him when the money censes to pour in. But there is too much swearing in the play. Everybody swears even when there is no occasion for it. The idea of many of our modern dramatists seems to be that cheap profanity is "punch." Well, it isn't. We knew one man who in the presence of great personal danger, merely grunted and said, "Oh, shucks!" Profanity is just a synonym for innuity. Paul Robeson, in the first act, sings one of his infinitable spiritus als and I felt like the girl in the play when she said to a ring parasite: "Can't you let him finish his song?" We would much rather hear Paul Robeson sing than fight and he says himself in the last act, as he picks up his harmonica: "I would rather sing than fight." He certainly can sing! When he opens his mouth and that organ-like voice comes forth you know that this is the real thing, no Al Jolson-Eddie Cantor imitation—but the real thing. quite a few left despite the inroads to ment. Concludes Mr. Lewis: "It frequently happens that do out enlightening comment is as no facts.

Concludes Mr. Lew's; "It frequently happens that describing a condition literally without enlightening comment is as misleading as a wilful, distortion of facts. There are times when extenuation is the better part of truth. In the final appraisal of the contemporary Negro theatre two general allowances must be made: first, the theatre everywhere always lags somewhat behind the cultural advance of the people it represents, and, second and more important, the Negro theatre is a primitive剧院. When we consider the spiritual intimacy existing between the actors who commonly come to their work fresh from the gin mills, and the spectators, who are plentifully supplied with flasks of liquor, the performances of the Negro theatre at once assume the aspect of Bacchalia, we readily recognize as homologues of the attic revels which preceded the advent of Aeschylus. This is a happy augury for the future." NEW MANHATTAN CASINO 155th Street and Eighth Ave. Tel. Edgecombe 2653 CAPACITY 5,000—DANCE FLOOR 6,000 SQ. FT.

Carla Carey, Alberta Dougal It is here at last—a real American opera—of America, by Americans and written in the native musical idiom of today—Jazz. The thing that many learned critics have prophesied for years could not be done has been done by Frank Harling, skilfully aided and abetted by Arthur Hopkins and Laurence Stallings. The result was an ovation recently for Mr. Harling, who conducted his own opera; for Mr. Stallings, who wrote the play, and for that intelligent and far-sighted producer, Arthur Hopkins. "Deep River" thrilled me to the core. The music is as fresh and invigorating as a cold shower and dynamic in its power to arouse primeval emotions and set your red blood a-tingle. Dramatic? Why, the music fairly pulses with drama and yet it also possesses the quality of poignant wistfulness and melodious beauty that one finds in the work of Stephen Collins Foster, our greatest composer of folk songs. Here is Arthur Hopkins' note, printed on the program, which explains more clearly than I can what the composer and his librettist have tried to do in this unhackneyed native opera: The New Orleans of 1853 offers a variety of themes for an American opera which no other field, setting or time in the history of our country presents. The Creoles were of mixed Spanish and French descent, a carefully preserved and sometimes regenerated aristocracy, brought bodily with all cultural and racial characteristics into the new Latin world organized at the mouth of the Mississippi. They were never possessed of Negro strains, as is the general misconception. The Negro society with which they mingled, and by the aid of which they established a half-world of society unparalleled in American history, was founded upon a general series of liaisons with quadron women. These women were decorative, intelligent, beautiful, and as a rule faithful to their Creole protectors. They were chiefly of mixed blood, with a Negro strain imparted to them by refugees from the Negro states of the Caribbean. Many travelers have left their letters and diaries to attest the beauty and magnetism of these quadron women, whose fortunes led them to liaisons with Creole gentlemen. The quadron woman, but never her father, mother or brother, were tolerated at the opera, the various cafes and haunts of the Creole gentlemen, in a special circle or sequestered place. The quadron balls were on a rating, for beauty and taste, of an equal importance with those of the high French-Spanish society of the time. At these balls matches were made.

This worship was brought into New Orleans, as into no other part of the South, by the Negroes from Santo Domingo, Martinique and other Caribbean states. In "Deep River" the cabalistic chants and filiums used are taken authentically from notes by Lacadio Hearn and other scholars who have endeavored to discover more of woodoo significance than ever they found. The choral influences in the second act are taken from Hearn and from accounts of the time left in newspapers. The "Huru Mande" and "Ah tingonal ya" themes were set down by Hearn as an eye-witness at a woodoo ceremony. The songs of the woodoo queen are taken from newspaper accounts. The words are a bastard idiom of Congo, Spanish and French. The Creoles, until the advent of General Jackson as the hero of the Battle of New Orleans, never tolerated the parity of other American breeds, Kentuckians, Tennesseeans and others of Tentative stockings filtering down into the city were always regarded as proponents of a democracy not to be countenanced in the Creole scheme. Only the War of Secession, when all strains of the South were confederated to defeat the oncoming of the democratic idea, brought an end to Creole glory. The abolition of slavery ended forever the quadroon half world that French and Spanish society had created for the more favored quadroon women bearing strains of Negro blood. Something of this sort was done by Henry F. Gilbert, that stalwart battler for native music, several years ago when he wrote his "Dance in Place Congo," a ballet based upon one of George W. Cable's descriptions of a native dance in one of his stories about the Creoles. This ballet, which was produced at the Metropolitan Opera House, aroused great enthusiasm. It might be called a musical pioneer clearing the way for "Deep River." Owner of New Lincoln Theatre Returns From Trip Mrs. Downs Now the Duchess of Agramonte -Says Josephine Baker Is Really a Sensation Mrs. Marie C. Downs, owner of the New Lincoln Theatre, returned to this country last Friday on the Borengaria, and as befitting one of her station, was met by ship news reporters who discovered that during her stay in Europe Mrs. Downs had traced her ancestry back to le Duc de Agramonte, one of the grandees of Spain. By right of succession Mrs. Downs is now the Duchess of Agramonte. Much of the time spent by the Duchess was in sightseeing, although this is not the first trip she has made to the other side. At the Hotel Du Palais in Venice the charming and popular owner of the Lincoln had the pleasure of meeting the former Russian Archduke, the Prince of Wales and King Alphonso and his consort. The Palace of Versailles, Westminster Abbey and other interesting places were visited by Mrs. Downs, Blairtiz and Vichy were among the places where she spent the longest time. In Paris Mrs. Downs went to see Josephine Baker in the big sensational revue and brought back a statue of Miss Baker, who is now the rage on the Parisian stage. In London she saw Florence Mills at the Pavilion and confirmed reports of the sensational success being scored by Miss Mills. At a suggestion from the writer that the owner of the New Lincoln would most likely seek the warmth of the sunny climes of South America this winter. Mrs. Regan, faithful, charming and over courteous secretary to Mme. La Duchesa, immediately voiced an objection which came from a heart overflowing with love for the turned traveler. She would like to keep Mrs. Downs here for while at least. Manager Snyder, Wm. Ressar and right on down the line they registered joy at the return of Mrs. Downs. It should be a source of great pride and satisfaction to the owner of the historic Lincoln to know that not only those faithful people with whom she has rounded herself and into whose competent hands she leaves the running of her theatre, but all those with whom she is brought into contact bid home" with a tinge of that warmth which can only come from hearts reflecting the love and esteem they hold for her. "SUBWAY SADIE" AT ROOSEVELT Dorothy Mackall and Jack Mullah, two of First National's most prominent young featured players, had a terrible squabble recently. It happened right out in the street, too, and passersby prepared to send in a call for the riot squad. However, it was all smoothed out and the young pair are now good friends. Director Al Santoll was the peacemaker. You see, it was all part of a motion picture, of course. This pair, with Charles Murray, are featured in "Subway Sailie," which will be the attraction at the Roosevelt Theatre this week-end.

Amsterdam News, New York City. Dear Doughtery: The fight being waged between the owners of the Latayette Theatre and the motion picture operators reached such pofat of interest that I wag attracted to the theatre Inst week to. see what ft was all about. After pausing in front of the theatre a few. minutes observing the picketers and the ef- fect their activities had ou the passing show, 1 purchased a ticket fo make like observation inside. Being of 2 serious trend of mind and so engrossed in the contro- versy belng waged by employer and employee, I did not even notice the nature of the performance un- tl the cuttaiz rose and I saw on one corner of the stage 2 pla- card, and read “Ethel Waters in | Mise Calico.” ‘As the performance progressed, my interest was suddenly diverted eg my mission and I found my- self engrossed {n a study tar more serious than the one of employer and employee. The scene bad shifted from # chorus of semi-nude girls to that of the interior of a Negro church. Here was euacted a scene of & church service typical lof $0 per cent of the Negro churches ot America. The preacher chose tor his text “The Almighty Dollar.” while his choir and congregation wero “messing around” and doing the “Black Bottom’ ’to the tune of the Negro spiritual “I Could Hear Nobody. Pray.” ‘A the preacher reached the citmax of his sermon. a crude washerwoman burst forth fu wild ‘ecstasy and whouted “Oh, God. Oh, God, gend they wrath on these sin- tul people for mocking Tay church and Thy worshippers.” She was in earnest. She was burt. She resented the act. Her whole eve- ning was spoiled. To this person the. act expressed one thing. to some another. I tried hard to see the woman's point of view. but be- ing intellectually honest with my- self, I saw differently. I saw the Negro church losing its serious- ness. becoming a Joke to the modern sophisticated youth of to- day, I saw the Negro stage ful- filling the work it fs destined to play in our group ife, that is. to mirror Ife as it is. This uct shold be seen dy the ministry of Harlem. To some of them the act will he viewed in the same light as it was by the woman in the andienee who took exception to it, because they ure too cioxe to the condition to understand it and appreciate its moral: but to others of the ministry it will be inter- preted differently. They will see the church losing {ts grip on the youth of today and probably will return to their work imbued with a desire to expand the program of the church to # point of serious. nese where it can comniand the at [tention of the modern youth. | Wishing you continued success, tam : Very truly yours.

A. U. boxing tournament in the New Garden last Wednesday night. Ernie Shafe of the U. S. S. Florida, who has raised ructions with the leading amateur heavyweights since his debut here last April, was disqualified on a serious charge after he had scored a third-round knockout over Marcel Desmeissel of the Holy Name Club. When Shafe's gloves were removed in the dressing room, Dr. T. P. DeNaouley, chief of the medical staff of the local A. A. U., reported to the judges Shafe's hands were found to be wrapped with black tire tape instead of the customary gauze and adhesive tape bandages. Shafe was declared ineligible for the finals and it is probable that further action will be taken. This tape, the medico told officials, rendered the general consistency of Ernie's hand somewhat approximating that of a block of concrete beneath the 10-ounce mitt end in addition to endangering the life of an opponent was contrary to the laws of boxing. This was considered sufficient testimony to place his standing with the A. A. H. in leopardy. Dessinez went out for the count after 1:16 of the third round and was knocked down twice before his final trip to the canvas. He was badly bruised and his face was swollen from constantly stopping Shafe's iron hand beneath the leather glove. After news had been brought concerning Dr. De Naouley's discovery, those at the ringside argued that a blow to Marcel's ribs in the first round had resulted in a sharp crack that suggested a broken bone. At the time it was struck some thought that Shafe had broken his hand, while others were of the opinion that it had been one of Dessinez's WONDERFUL NEW DISCOVERY WHITENS AND CLEARS YOUR SKIN AFTER A FEW TREATMENTS Banish Freckles, Blackheads, Muddiness, Tan, Pimples, Sallowness, Blotches and all Blemishes by this wonderful new scientific treatment, which positively clears and whitens your skin after a few nights' treatment.

Frank Morris, Ascension Parish House wetter, scored one of the quickest knockouts on record over Joc Cooper, colored, of Rogers Gym. Morris came out of his corner and landed two left hooks in rapid succession. Cooper dropped for no count, jumping right to his feet and was met with another duet of the same nature. This was sufficient and the time of the clean knockout was announced as 10 seconds. Ted Moses, brilliant colored fighter of the Astoria K. of C., put away Peter Ameduri, unattached, after 45 seconds of battling in the first round of another 147-pound class. John Pile, another Astoria Casy, flattened the good Lem Salmons after 1:54 of the third. Henry Lebenson, great flyweight of the Glencoe A. C., gave the rugged Johnny Gatto. Yonkers K. of C., a three-round boxing lesson and romped off with the decision.

Winners in the other classes were Harry Leibenson, Glencoe A.

Ted Moses, Astoria K. of C., was the victor in the welterweight class when John Pile, a clubmate, was unable to go on for the final, and Frank Morris, Ascension Parish House, won by default from Hill Brindle, unattached middleweight. Three leading amateurs left their 10-ounce gloves in the New Garden Wednesday night, never to be resumed in the roped enclosure, and set out to make their respective fortunes in the professional ring.

Johnny Cruz handed Jimmy Rappaport a three-round pasting in the 118-pound final and may have temporarily curbed Jimmy's alleged plan that this tournament was his last as an amateur and may set a new precedent by leaving the simon-pures with a defeat as his last act. Lee, great lightweight of the Salem Crescent A. C., has not tasted defeat in some time and has met the best in his division at every asking. Meyers has done well in the 126-pound class and should give a good account of himself, although he lacks the cleverness and class of the colored boy. The popular Rappaport did not expect a beat, but found himself unable to penetrate the lengthy guard of Cruz and went down like a man.

For a foul in the 13th round Wills was disqualified and the fight given to the young Bostonian, who will most likely meet Gene Tunney, white heavyweight champion of the world, at some open air park next Summer.

G. Alexander, Graduate Manager, 48 Webster Place, Orange, N. J. The night was an ideal one considering the cool weather of the previous 24 hours. Thousands of Negroes journeyed from New York City, Brooklyn, Coney Island and New Jersey to see the "Brown Panther" tame the new aspirant for heavyweight honors. Despite claims made by daily newspapers, Wills went into the arena a top-heavy favorite, and a great wall of disappointment broke loose when he was given the works in the unlucky 13th. The effect of trailing Dempsey for such a long time was easily apparent to those who know Wills, and the fact that he was made the goat in that he had everything to lose and nothing to gain played its part when the crucial moment arrived for him to show whether he was far superior to the third-rater or a man who entered the ring morally whipped by the unfair attitude of those running the boxing game in New York. No sooner had the fight started than the referee cautioned Willa Sharkey came out and jabbed a light left to the face and was met by a terrific right and left. From then on it could be plainly seen that Sharkey had been schoolled to play for the decision instead of throwing everything he had into a chance for a knockout. The men clinched often, with the Bostonian taking good care of himself because of 'Wills' evident fear of being 'jobbed' for the slightest and smallest fota of infringement of the rules. Wills appeared to be fighting the most careful fight of his career, and it is the opinion of the writer that Harry was face to face with a condition for which he was not prepared. Warned by newspapers, referee and others that his infighting was going to be watched. Wills waged The Eastern Colored Basketball League is open for applicants for the coming season. Write or call on Mr. Roy Randolph, 66 W. 140th street, Apt. 9. an almost listless battle as he was prevented from getting in the deadly blows that usually wear his opponents down in short order. About even up to the time the foul ended the fight was the consensus of opinion. There were no thrilling moments—nothing in the battle that gave the followers of either man reason for rising and shouting themselves hoarse. The men entered the ring with Wills weighing 26 more pounds than Sharkey. The exact weights were: Wills, 214½; Sharkey, 188. The man who will now be boosted for a fight with either Dempsey or Tunney was only knocked out once, although considered a third-rater. Jack Sharkey was born in Binghamton, N. Y., on Oct. 6, 1902. His only defeat by a knockout came at the hands of Romero Rojas in Boston two years ago when he was stopped in nine rounds. He has done most or his fighting in and around Boston, and the best men in the heavyweight division were brought in to try their luck with him. He defeated Johnny Risko, Jim Maloney, a Boston rival, Jack Renault, King Solomon and George Godfrey in 10 rounds. Two years ago he defeated Floyd Johnson, Al Roberts and Homer Smith in 10 round bouts. He lost decisions to Charley Weinert and Bud Gorman. He holds knockout over Billy Muldoon in seven, Pat Hace in two, Dan Lucas in two and Eddie Record in seven. Sharkey has never been a hard hitter. He depends on cleverness for victories and he handles the hard hitters and the clever big men with the same easy style. When he defeated Eddie Huffman in Madison Square Garden some time ago he took his time with such deliberation that the Boxing Commission held up his money for several days in order to investigate a rumor that he had deliberately held up his opponent.

Next Sunday night, October 17, will see a large crowd wending its way to the Renaissance Casino to usher in another basketball season, which bids fair to surpass previous seasons in spite of the thrills which marked the contests staged at the well-known hall. The Renaissance Five, colored basketball champions of the world, will swing into action against one of the big white quintets in a game that will furnish all the sensational angles expected by the rooters that will be on hand. Thrills will be furnished because the Renaissance Five is out to make an auspicious start. The men on the Douglas team feel that their entire season depend on the outcome of the game and they will have no stone unturned to bring victory in their initial contest. In the line-up of the colored team will appear Ricks, Fail, Slocum, Mayers, Jenkins and Saunders. Garcia is also expected to be among the Douglas men when they start. A story is going the rounds that the sensational "Specks" Moton will be in the line-up of the Renaissance Five this year. Moton is one of the best youngsters developed in basketball in recent years, and has had experience in the big time game which should stand him in good stead as a part of the champion outfit. Vernon Andrades and his Renaissance orchestra is an added feature that will mean much to the games at the Casino in that they have established a reputation. which will be the means of adding hundreds of spectators who will go to the Casino to enjoy the dance along with the games. Douglas is out for the championship this year, and will redouble his efforts in trying to bring the heretofore illusive pennant to the race. To that end he has put the Renaissance Five through weeks of intensive secret training, which will find the colored players at the very peak of their condition, and with an eye to the sharpshooting which will bring the expected treat to those thousands who will support the world's colored champions by their presence at the contest staged at the Renaissance Casino.

C., Saturday, October 9—In their first game of the season and the first game to be played in the new Howard Stadium, the Howard "Bisons" took the toll of the Livingston Collegio (Salisbury, N. C.), eleven by the score of 21-0. Saturday afternoon, October 9. Howard was master of the situation throughout the game, making untenet first down to the visitor's none. The best that the Living-sone team could do was to brace the line now and then and force Howard to try forward passes on the last down. The touchdowns for Howard were as follows: Tyson, 2; C. Smith, 2; and Young, 1. All of Howard's scores were made in the first and third periods. The "Bisons" line was heavier than that of the visitors and the backs had little difficulty in finding gaps to plunge through. Howard used the "huddle system" in calling signals and was snappy on the offensive. They also played an open game largely, trying sixteen forward passes and making six. Howard got off to a fast start, receiving the ball in midfield and going straight down the field in four successive first downs for the first score by C. Smith. Coles kicked goal for the extra point, the only one scored after touchdowns. Livingstone got the ball when Howard tailed at a forward pass on the fourth down after receiving the ball. The "Tartheelers" could make no headway and were forced to kick. Coles. Howard quarterback, tore off a first down on the first play and C. Smith ran the remaining 23 yards for the second touchdown. Both sides were forced to kick on downs during the remainder of the period. In the second quarter Howard shucked its pace and resorted to forward passes, making two out of four for one gain. Ross throwing. But the Livingstone line had unrestrained and Howard could not score in this period although making five first downs. Between the halves the Howard rabble made its traditional march around the field, led by the band, and formed the "H." In the third quarter, Howard come back with new viciousness. A attempted double pass by Livagstone around right end resulted in a fumble and Howard recovered the ball on the visitors' 13 yard line. Two line plunges, a forward pass and another plunge by Young took the ball across the line. Then a little later Howard started a march from midfield carrying the ball across on four successive first downs, and this in spite of a fifteen yard penalty. Most of the gains were made around right end and through right tackle. Another touchdown by Howard followed shortly after making three in one period. The last quarter saw Livingstone fighting desperately but vainly. Three of their players were forced from the field on account of injuries. Howard could make only two first downs in this period but was just about to score the sixth touchdown as the final whistle blew. The Howard backfield was strong and elusive, Coles and C. Smith doing particularly good work, and on the line Captain V. Smith, Kelly and Campbell starred. T. Smith. YES, SIR! IT'S A FACT!

Officials: Referee, Henderson, Umpire, Kellerman, Washington, Field Judge, Douglas Hon Charles Fred White to Be at St. Mark's Former State Boxing Commissioner of Pennsylvania to Be Officially Received After Lyceum Meeting. Hon. Charles Fred White, former State Boxing Commissioner of Pennsylvania, will be the guest of St. Mark's Lyceum Sunday afternoon, October 24, at 4 o'clock. Mr. White will be remembered by readers of The Amsterdam News as the stalwart member of governing athletic body of Pennsylvania who had the courage to refuse to countenance the Dempsey-Tunney fight in his state after it had been turned down by the License Committee of the New York State Athletic Commission. Former Commissioner White gained quite some prominence for the sterling manner in which he performed his duties long before Gene Tunney, white heavyweight champion of the world, and the former holder of the same title staged their act in what was called "The Battle of the Sesqui." More appropriately would the meeting of the two white fighters who have so religiously avoided a meeting with the world's real champion, Harry Wills, been dubbed "The Debacle of the Sesqui," but newspaper men of the opposite race must save their faces even after they have been dislusioned, and the justice of White's stand was never more evident than in the result of the so-called fight. We believe that New York will do herself proud by honoring White on the afternoon of October 24, and we would not be surprised if a move is not made by other organizations to do honor to the man who so ably represented his people on the Pennsylvania Commission and at the same time brought added glory to a race which, we again repeat, must be ready to make great sacrifices before it can reach the goal of its ambitions.

NEWARK-AFRICA FLIGHT PLANNED Fireproof Plane Being Built at Port Will Carry Two to Liberia Aero experts at the Flyad Flying School in Port Newark were putting the finishing touches today on the body of a seaplane in which two colored aviators hope to fly from New York to Liberia, the Negro republic on the west coast of Africa. Leutenant Hubert Julian, formerly of the Canadian air service, and Mechanic Delahouw will undertake the flight, backed by the Colored Elks of New York and Standard Oil interests. The trip will be made in hops. The first stop will be at Philadelphia, then Washington, thence to South America, with several intermediate landings. From the most casterly tip of this continent the fliers will strike for the Canary Islands, and will then go down the coast of Africa to Monrovia, the capital of Liberia. the plane, thirty feet long and with a wing span of fifty feet, is equipped with twin Wright whirlwind motors similar to those used by Commander Byrd on his North Pole trip. The scaplane is of 400 hosepower and carries 500 gallons of gasoline. There is ample room for food and other supplies. The longest single hop on the projected flight will be 800 miles. Gasoline depots will be established at the various landing points along the African coast. A salient and novel feature in the construction of the plane is that it is covered with fireproof paint. Not only will the paint not burn, the builders say, but will act as protection for the wooden frame, making a recurrence of the Fonck disaster impossible. The plane will be taken to New York, where the wings will be put on. The flight will start within the next month. An auspicious ceremony on the banks of the Harlem River will mark its beginning.

This bout was the most thrilling clash staged since the Caseys opened their doors to the simon pures. White opened up a fierce two-handed attack in the first round and had Cosentine groggy before the stanza was half over. His hammer-like right kept boring in and Cosentine was on the verge of a knockout at the close of the round. The second canto was a reversal of the first. Cosentino tearing in at his opponent, letting both hands go for all they were worth. At the end of the round the lads received a big hand from the fans, and they well deserved it for the slugging match they displayed. It was all Cosentino in the third, White being unable to stop the two-fisted attack that was coming his way. Through sheer grit White hung on to the final bell. This was White's last fight as an amateur as he is turning professional. Jim Anderson, from the Salem-Crescent A. C., scored an impressive victory over Manny Marcus of the Foxdale A. C. in the final bout of the 125-pound class. Anderson lft-jabbed his way to victory over the Foxdale representative, who was unable to get under way. Anderson was slugging wildly in the final round and it looked like curtains for Marcus, until Referee Doc Kelleher stopped the bout to save Marcus from further punishment.

Watch Your Frail, Puny Child Grow Strong--Take on Weight Cod Liver Oil in Sugar Coated Tablets Puts on Flesh and Builds Them Up In just a few days—quicker than you ever dreamed of—these wonderful health building, death making tablets called Cod Liver Oil Compound Tablets will start to help any thin, underweight little one. After sickness and where rickets are suspected they are especially valuable. No need to give them any more nasty God Liver Oil—these tablets are made to take the place of that good, but still need to be getting medicine and they surely do it. A very sick child, age 9, gained 12 pounds in 7 months. Ask any druggist for McCoy's God Liver Oil Compound Tablets—as easy to take as candy—60 tablets, 60 cents, and money back is not satisfied.

West 132d Street, New York City Fisk's New President Sounds Keynote in First Talk MAGAZINE SECTION THIRD SECTION THAT Flik is to stand on the fundamental principles on which she was founded more than 80 years ago was declared by President Thomas E. Jones in his first talk to the student body in their school principles are free discipline, open-mindedness and religion. President Jones speech follows: We are met here today at the beginning of a new school year, slay have come for the next time, while upper classmen have returned to the school they have learned to love. Although many of us are little acquainted with the personalities and polices of the school we are hoping great things. We are undertaking a high adventure with large expectations in the face of serious difficulties. This adventure is made possible because we are living in a new world with new problems and opportunities. We are confronted with the privilege of establishing anew the spirit and the achievements that made Fisk University known throughout the world a generation ago. To appreciate the task that lies ahead of us it might be well to consider the principles upon which this school was established a half century ago. --- In the first place Fisk University was a free school opened in the barracks of the Union Army, where soldiers had ebed their lives away for the cause of liberty. It was made up of a thousand happy children who faced a new world with new life and possibilities. And it brought forth a spirit and a music that were heard throughout the world. A chance to strive to become the best educated men, with the highest character, inspire all of us. The joy of a newfound freedom was manifest in their songs, in their prayers and ways of life in this, the home of the Jubilee music. In the second place this was a school of standards. --- "In 1569 Adam K. Spence, a keen-minded professor from the University of Michigan, brought college standards of the most rigorous order to this school. He was thrilled by the ebullient joy and the creative idealism in the institution, but he believed this could be made most effective by the stern processes of scholarly discipline. In Greek, Latin French and mathematics he drilled his students until their work was of a quality equal to that in the best colleges in the country. "Fisk became a school of quality under his leadership. And in the third place this was a school of cosmopolitan outlook. In 1875 Erastus Millo Cravath, the first president of the university, began his endeavors to make this an international inter-racial liberal arts college of the highest order. He strove to direct the attention of his students from their troubles and limitations to their large opportunities in the world. He showed that difficulties suffered here were similar to those endured by peoples elsewhere and that the problems of one people are probabilities to greater or less degree of all people. The statesman who should help other citizens of broad outlook to see the significance of giving the best possible education to the leaders of the Negro race. He enabled them to feel that this was an investment in the highest form of patriotic and religious service. Students increased, departments grew and buildings multiplied. Under the instruction of men like Professors Chase and Bouett, science and religion were raised to the high place previously occupied by art and the classics. Fisk stood out as a first class college throughout the nations. Its position was especially noticed in Nashville and throughout the South because of its prosperity, while state schools were almost prostrate for decades following the war. Howard and Lincoln were weak at time and Tuskegee and Hopton institutes were scarcely known. Fisk had no serious commiters in Negro education." "Pacts compel us to paint a rather different picture today, Jubilee quarters, Glee Clubs and special singers, and building number. Howard, Lincoln, Hampton, Tuskegee, theoney and many other schools send out Jubilee Singers to advertise their school and ask for funds. The unique idea made concrete by George L. White has become so common as to have lost much of its appeal. In education Howard and Lin- lake have forged ahead. Hamp- ton and Tuskegue have establish- ed college classes. State normal college have sprung into exis- tence and have been awarded ment funds to establish exis- tence buildings and equipment and valuable teachers. The South Carolina made such phenomen- tals in school buildings from the last two years that Fisk in summer stands out for the exis- tence of its plant, but has to fight hard to maintain a credible standing of any sort. "And in outlook Fisk has been going through a period of introspection. She has been looking at and plying herself so much that much of her breadth of vision and cosmopolitan spirit of former years have been diminished. As usual this malady has manifested itself in symptoms of distrust, repression, conflict and revolt. Students, faculty, alumni and Board of Trustees have all been affected. Happily Fisk is emerging from this condition but dregs of the disease are yet found throughout its entire system. Every part of its body is affected and it does not behoove any part to find fault with any other. Let us all face the facts as they are, accept them and resolve that nothing can be done. It is answered. In what direction should we then face for this most serious and most inspiring task? We must direct our efforts to the speedy restoration and improvement of the conditions fundamental to a healthy college. These fundamentals are essentially the same as those established by the founders of the institution. "The first fundamental for the restoration and expansion of the Fisk idea must be freedom. It was granted without equivocation or quibble when Dr. Cravath called the school into being and he and his successors brought it to its high state of efficiency. Whatever may live in the pathway of Negro students at other schools or places, at Fisk they should have freedom to pursue truth to its fartherest limits. No devitalized or ambiguous type of education should be expected here. Trusts worthy of consideration in the most enlightened and emancipated colleges and universities of the world should not be withheld from students at Fisk University. Together with freedom goes creativeness. To think, to dare, to dream and to plan for the biggest and best life possible has always been at the heart of Fisk traditions. Not merely opportunity to strive but to so fill the college with the enthusiasm of a chance to delve, to explore and to discover that all will be inspired to make a new world within itself and to achieve myself and this world about, should be our aim. This freedom should lure faculty members to launch out into their subjects. They should love them, gain a great thrill out of studying them and should rejoice in telling their new discoveries to eager minds. They should know their subjects and be able to stand on that knowledge without finching. They should be protagonist of the new and sometimes the difficult way. This freedom should awaken ambitions in those not yet privileged to be students to look forward to the days when they can so become. "This spirit of freedom in the search for the truth has been and must remain the cardinal idea of the school. And this freedom should enable students who wish a voice in their own education to consult and cooperate with the faculty in forming a curriculum that we will be interesting and practical. It should replace insincerity and formalism in teaching with fact and originality. It should permit the development of a sociological attitude towards the dignity of womanhood, and a mutual respect between the sexes. And it should emphasize the importance of conference and co-operation, rather than suspicion and conflict in the settlement of economic and political problems. "A second fundamental to the health and well-being of Flisk is discipline. It is the handmade of Freedom and without it freedom has little meaning. Freedom is a relative term. Where there is life there is limitation and necessity to conform to some standards. I am free to choose kinds of foods and times to eat within the limits, but I am not free to eat poisonous die or foreign eating for long periods of time. Freedom to think what one pleases and to do as one likes is conditioned upon one's past experience and the place in which he lives. It is manifestly of little use to attempt to think a rational thought in utterly different concepts and language from what one knows or has experienced. As experience expands, as vocabulary grows, as precision in definition is enhanced emanation of ideas and freedom of the soul become a reality. As a method to freedom, therefore, one must object himself to discipline and trill discipline. Discipline only becomes irksome when freedom is thwarted and freedom only becomes unbearable when discipline is ignored. This is a truth in education and yet more uncertainty has been manifest, in the application of this principle to the theory of education than almost any other. "In the early years of collere "Handicap of Wealth" Is Beaten by Ogden Mills education the student was told what to study. The curriculum was worked out in detail. The subjects were few and every student had to take them. Mathematics, classics, grammar and language constituted the major courses. There was time to drill, to define and to cram each subject well. Then came the scientific awakening. The curious mind began to hunt, to bore, to blast, to boll, to cook and to dissect. Rocks, plants, animals and men were collected, classified, arranged, compared and described. Fancy gave way to fact. The atom was broken up into the atom, the cool setting was placed by macroscopes and antiscient injection and a theory of fortuitous creation yielded to the theory of orderly change from a less dependent type of life to an independent, more versatile mode of behavior. So rapid has been our increase in knowledge and so insistent has been the demand for specialists to deal with new processes and products that the University has been forced to expand its curriculum until its courses are numbered by the Finishers. Further education usually resulted in added earning capacity and greater social prestige, students have crowded upon the curricu- Candidate Tells About Life and Ambitions. Br CHARLES S. HAND. If you had millions, a city and a country home, motor cars and unlimited opportunity for world travel and indulence, would you study law, practice before the couris, become an election district captain and ultimately work yourself into the State Senate and Confer- No? Well, that is what Oden L. Mills, Republican candidate for Governor, has done. Energetic and diligent, he overcome the handicap of wealth. He learned politics from a grounded group and had sufficiently perfected what is recognized as about the best brain in his party in this section, the nomination for Governor was thrust upon him. Because Mills is not nearly so well known to the people of the State as his rival, Governor Robert S. Smith, a writer of news to Smith, gave an idea of the man and some facts of his career. INHERITED VIGOR Mills' friends say his vigor, courage and independence came down to him from his progenitors. They recount the story of his grandfather, Darius O. Mills, clerk in a Buffalo bank, when there was rush to the California gold fields in 1849. Grandfather Mills, who came from a family of Long Island and Westchester farmers, came to New York and dug up sufficient capital to fit out two merchant vessels with groceries and other necessaries of life. Then he sailed them around honeysuckle to San Francisco, a shrewd businessman, he laid the foundation upon which the family's fortune was built. When Oden, the grandson, was born the Mills family home was at No. 2 East Sixty-ninth street, corner of Fifth avenue. The Mills name was recorded among New York's 400 and, it so happened, New York's 100. The airport instead of at Sixty-ninth street, where he has lived ever since. REAL NEW YORKER About this Mills vouchsafed this comment: "Al Smith can lay no more justifiable claim to being a New Yorker than I can. Certainly nobody can take that distinction away from me, not even my opponent, despite the fact that he has lived on Oliver street, in the heart of the East Side, and I on upper Fifth avenue. "My grandfather my grandfather before him lived in New York and were of New York. Here I am living in the home that my grandmother occupied for so many years. And next door to me is my father, a resident of the city since his birth." From the brownstone steps of his Sixty-ninth street home, where Mills posed for camera cameras, the candidate started for school each day when a boy in his early teens. At seventeen he was in Harvard, from which he was graduated two years later—a thing almost unprecedented in those days. LAW SERIOUS WORK. Three years of association with Blackstone followed at the Harvard Law School and young Millis was back in New York. Let him tell what followed: "I became a clerk in the office of Stetson. Jennings & Russell, the first firm which President Gerrard had been associated. Ultimately, I became one of the partners. "I practised law very seriously. There was a reason. I was pos- THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY. OCT. 13. 1926 hum makers until the self-protection many schools have been forced to do as President Frank of Wisconsin University says in his illustration of the bragging hay stacker who was forced to yield his bet that five pitchers could not cover him with hay. When nearly suffocated by mountains of hay, he jumped from the stack and said with an oath, "Stack it yourself." Harvard University, under Ex-President Ellot, was one of the first schools to adopt this tree for all elective system. It was quickly initiated by other schools having less reason for such action. But recently, the growing demand that the faculty assume their rightful responsibilities in helping bewildered Freshmen find their way through the maze of courses offered in the college catalogue. This is being attempted in two ways by college orientation courses and courses in contemporary civilization. "The first endeavors to explain why a man comes to college, how he finds his way into the method and the work of the classes, and how he furtherst the purpose and meaning of the college. The second endeavor is to give a brief introduction into all of the different subjects which sessed of a fortune, but I wanted to put myself, as a master of personal pride, in a position where I was not dependent upon the income which I had inherited. In other words, I was determined to become self-supporting, and I became just that. "And then you went into politics?" Mills reflected a moment, before answering: "I did. I did so partly because I had a bent in that direction, but move so for this reason: I concluded that a man with money should justify his existence, because he boat and take a burn at the ears. BEGAN AT THE FOOT. "First I became a worker at the poll, right here in the district where I am still living. I became the captain of my district. I went about and canvassed the voters—pulled doorbells all day long and far into the night. "I thought that more useful—I mean political activity in behalf of good government—than the task of devoting myself to the accumulation of more wealth. I started my political life in the block where I have lived all my life and there I shall continue it." One defeat for Congress and Mills became a member of the State Senate, gaining prominence in political activity and influence at Albany in 1915, 1916 and 1917. Along came the World War and American participation in it. Mills resigned from the Senate. He wanted to fight. How well he succeeded it told in his own words: "I applied for entrance to the Plattsburgh camp. The doctors turned me down, saying my eyes weren't good enough. I appealed to the police. Washington, telling him he would have to set me in." TRAINED AT CAMP "Stimson, through the President, got me a commission as a captain. I went to work in the War College. Then I asked for permission, in spite of my eyes, to train at the Fort Myer Camp. It was granted. "I went through the course and was given a certificate, saying my showing had been satisfactory enough to entitle me to become command of infantry, excepter for the drawback of my impaired sight." Subsequently Mills was sent to Europe. First he was assigned to headquarters, thereafter to the First Division when it first went into line. A course at the staff school followed. Then he was assigned to the Second Division with the Marines in their noteworthy battles." When the war ended he was in the Argonne with the 36th Division. Mills' adult years have not been given over entirely to the law, and politics. He plays between times. He was asked: "Surely you go in for recreation. What form does it take?" SHOOTS AND SAILS. The candidate answered: "I like a little of everything, I play golf and tennis. I like to shoot when I have the chance. I like to go out in a small boat and sail. "I don't play any games nearly as well as many other folks, but well enough to extract a lot of fun from them." And I like horse-racing. I get down to Retinol Point. Appetul and Jamaica as often as I can. Nothing appeals to me more than a good horse—and a good horse- race." N.Y. AMERICAN JANF 1940 TOBACCO ONLY CLOUD—The Republican candidate enjoys a cigar as he describes his life and his work. the college faculty consider necessary to a general education. This is supposed to acquaint the student with a wide field of general education before he begins specializing. This overcomes somewhat the drawbacks of the elective system, but it has weaknesses of its own. It may give a student but a superficial training in the subject, and further study in a particular line in which he might have become an expert had he gone far enough. These methods are being worked out by Assistant Dean Ambrose Caliver for Fisk University and are beginning to claim considerable attention in educational circles. Colleges which are devoting most attention to leading students into a well rounded concept of responsible citizenship are saying, come all teachers who love the truth and wish to work for it fearlessly and fully. Your teaching and your subjects shall be your first consideration. You will be taken care of by those who are seeking to liberate you to do the thing you love and not by those who are trying to drive a hard bargain to squeeze work from helpless victims of the educational system.

He has extensive libraries at his Long Isl and estate and his city home. He does not go in for rare editions or the thin books. "Joob bookshare" all—books of which one can get enjoyment." EXPERT ON TAXATION. Mills, who in Congress is recognized as one of the country's foremost experts on taxation, stressed that if he is elected Governor he hopes to "do a man's job" at Albany. He considers the post offers a splendid opportunity for real public service. With his eyes on the State capital, here is what runs through the Republican candidate's mind: "I have qualified myself for the office. I think, not only from the soundpoint of our study of State government affairs, but through practical endeavors in the field of politics. I have worked up from the bottom of the ladder. "I hope I won't be arraigned for vanity if I say, with all humility that I could have devoted my walking hours to the accumulation of more money or just loafed my life away. MUST OBEY PEOPLE. "I have decided notions about the Governorship. The head of the State must be a good man of the State's affairs. His second duty is to carry out faithfully the will of the people and he must have a thorough familiarity and sympathy with the people and aspirations of the people. "That can come to him only by mingling with them as I have EDITORIALS --- SPECIAL ARTICLES REAL ESTATE AND FINANCIAL ADVERTISEMENTS colleges are saying, come all who wish to be free and unhampered to work and love and roam and ascend the peaks of learning and truth. No seekers after mere social standing or personal popularity need apply. No insincere foplish dandies who wish to spend their parents' money and make a show need apply here. But to those who hunger and thirst after knowledge, who are burdened by ignorance and servitude, these colleges are saying; come and let us go up into the mountains of truth, let us climb and struggle and be longsone and be thrilled with each new height scaled and each new panorama that opens before us. Here is the music of adventure. The road is narrow and projections are keen but if follow our best wishes we shall arrive safely. This is the ideal of discipline laid by Professors Spence, Cravath, Bennett and Chase. It is the ideal of the best education today. It does not lead to Bolshevism but to responsibility, to self-respect, to scholarship and to manhood. "The third fundamental to the health and expansion of the true life or FISH is open-minded tolerance to pollution. In essence this spirit is fair, and under- MY AMERICAN STAFF PHOTO Republican candidate enjoys a cigar a life and his work. and working up from a humble position in the party ranks." As to his aims, in the event of election, Mills outlined them thus: "I found when I wont to the Legislature that virtually every one up the State was against New York City. But I found it poor to be a governor with the up-State group. "I believe it is possible for a Governor who is possessed of the right spirit to end the antagonism between the rural communities and New York City. I feel, too, that it is possible to unite the Republicans and the commonwealth and wold them into a barmonious entity. INTERESTS IN COMMON. "No New Yorker, be he governor or plain citizen, should make political capital for himself by accentuating the existing differences between the metropolis and the country. "If I am elected Governor I shall not divide a population whose interests are in common. That gues also for the Legislature and my treatment of it. I won't try to be a great Governor at the expense of the State's legislative body." Mills is forty-two, eleven years younger than Governor Smith. He is not hard on the eye. He is just about the right height and weight. He is five feet ten inches and tips the scales at 165 pounds. He is blond, red-checked, clean-shaven and wears turtleneck glasses. And when he speaks of his opponent, Governor Smith, for whom he has a high personal regard, will still have hope that he will suspend his position on the result until election day, adding: "This is a bad year for champion." standing. It is the rich heritage which Erastus Milo Cravath brought to the institution. It is that attitude of mind which awaits to make a judgment until it has been all around a question. It studies the negative as well as the affirmative side of the argument. It idolizes balance in judgment and pulse in conduct. It is at the base of all true culture. Propagandism cannot thrive in its presence. It is cool, steady and far seeing. It is not responsible, it faces duty without reservation. "The college that emphasizes the open mind will seek the point of view of other nations and races. It will attempt to understand the exact facts about those peoples thought to be strange, unreasonable or dangerous. It will seek to know them, to evaluate their culture for what it is worth, to recognize good points as well as its weaknesses and will endeavor to hold fast to that which is the good. With pride in America and all of the best for which America stands it will be loyal to her institutions to the limit, but will distinguish so-called non-heroes and will endeavor to lift America up to a place where it will lead and inspire but not intimidate or unjustify treat any nation or people on earth. The open mind bears malice towards none, charity for all, and firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right. "In the classroom it places the teacher in the position of an arbitrator. He will present the facts on both sides of a question. He will reduce blasts to as nearly a minimum as possible. He will listen in to the thoughts of the sages on these subjects and to the new flashes of light that glint back from students' minds who have first come in contact with them. He will weigh and balance, classify and compare and then he will know. A scholar with no conviction is almost as bad as one who is all conviction, plus the open-minded or careless not brood over imagined alights, potential enemies and disagreeable policies. He will seek facts in open, free and frank discussion. He will weigh and discuss and sympathize. The open minded man can usually co-operate without relinquishing fundamental beliefs and practices. He is ready and glad to grant to another the right of a point of view as he claims that for himself. On the campus, athletic field and in college halls the open minded point of view should be striven for, even though oftentimes it is difficult to attain. Students full of idealism and given to working out their philosophy of life, as the teacher, the teacher, as patient, the dematic and critical in this era of rebellion which is sweeping throughout the youth of the world this tendency is heightened. We must recognize this and deal with it fairly and in an understanding way. Fairness will beget fairness and trust carefully and wisely placed will likely produce honorable conduct. "Open mindness is no sentiment or wish-washy doctrine of a pacificist. It is the mature judgment and balance of a research worker. Many who pass for scholars are but propagandists and dogmatists of the narrowest sort. Further reading, healthy glands and a good dinner are sufficient in many cases to maintain healthy. Open mindedness is firmly fixed in the attractions of Fisk. It is a priceless heritage and it is most needed in this period of reconstruction that is going on throughout the world. "And, finally, the fourth fundamental in the establishment of Fisk traditions in the modern educational world is religion. Belief in a superhuman power is undoubtedly the most inclusive and the most effective of all the fundamentals required for the largest advancement of the University. This belief in a power in the universe not in ourselves, that makes for righteousness, inspires confidence in the results of effort furnishes new drive and accomplishment of a task that is entirely unique. It furnishes an anchor in the storm and turmoll of decision. It comforts a feversish and distracted mind in its effort to relinquish a belief that has been proved impossible by the examination of facts. To students with a warm heart it furnishes a guide in the presence of a cold and bloodless intellectualism which attempts to explain human values in terms of statistical formulae or mechanistic theorems. To adventurers and dreamers religion will inspire and lead the way. I am unable to agree with those who follow Ronan's famous statement that Belief's a foolish dust in the eyes of the student is reversible that this result must follow if in following God one closed his eyes to facts and new truths, if not, then, as President Angell says, "Modern science will give religion new meaning, immeasurably enlarging the boundaries of the universe." revealing undreamed of marvels in its structure, and showing man the most ephemeral fragment of its immensity, gradually mastering its secrets with his mind and dominating its laws with the majesty of his soul. Always undergoing attack, always battling its way forward, the sense of this superhuman power reappears again and again as a prepossession on behalf of himself, a conviction which once established transforms his attitude towards life, generating fresh energies, fresh hope and fresh confidence. "Religion calls for freedom because it rests on love. It calls for discipline because it is the expression of truth. It produces the open mind because 'It endures all things, believeth all things and vaunteth not itself' Religion always has been the inspiration, the guide and the power to, understanding at risk. It is the reason for looking to it as the chief corner-stone in the new Fisk that we all are building in our minds and souls. "Can Fisk University again attain her former position of prestige and service? Without the slightest question I know that it can. The college must go on; the world cannot afford to lose such an institution. America needs it as no other nation in the world today. It is an experiment station in reconciliation and research that America because of her growing international and interracial responsibility must have. And the Negro group in the university must not let it die. There is no more choice. There among the institutions of the race and there is no place for higher learning that gives surer guarantee for enlightenment, ammunication and achievement than Fisk University. Yet we must face sad fact that our Alma Mater is carrying a $100,000 debt. It needs $100,000 in repairs and $100,000 must be found to cover running expenses during the coming year. Teachers of marked ability are working on salaries far below what is paid in schools of this size and quality. Students are living in rooms inferior to those in their own homes. The campus shames us with its weeks. Can we find our way to the difficult? The spirit that sent the Tublieve Singers out to send Fisk五年 ago is not dead. It is living in richer and fuller measure in the hearts of their children and grandchildren. As our opportunities are larger than those who sacrificed their all for the school, our responsibilities are greater to save it to them, to ourselves, and to those who come after us. Islands of West Indies Have Ideal Climate WASHINGTON. — During the Autumn season many people plan mid-Winter trips that will take them away from the severe Winters of the North. The West Indies are frequently thought of in making such plans, but the common idea is that the climate is unhearably hot. That is the inconvenience is inflected from a recent report of the U.S. Weather Bureau, which points out the cooling effect of the West Indian elevations. Mountains on the west coast of Cuba are 2,500 feet high, while those on the east are 8,200 feet; Loma Tina in Haiti is 10,300 feet high; Jamaica has a peak of 7,400 feet; the islands have peaks or ranges of more than 1,000 feet elevation. The effect of these mountains is to lower the mean annual temperatures considerably. At sea level they are between 7.5 degrees Fahrenheit and 9.5 degrees over almost the entire region, and at higher levels may drop to 65 degrees Fahrenheit. In January or February the minimum-monthly means are from 75 degrees to 77 degrees at sea level, and higher up may be as low as 60 degrees. While maximum temperatures of over 100 degrees have been recorded, in many places 95 degrees is as high as the thermometer over climbs, and there are places where temperature even higher than the temperature exceptional. In fact, the highest tolerate temperature of the West Indies, combined with bountiful rainfall received on the windward sides of the mountains makes for a climate ending to the tourists who are seeking healthful and pleasant sojourns during the Winter season.

Socialist Candidate Proposes NewLaw Judge Panken, Named for Governor, Would Merge Departments Judge Jacob Panken, Socialist candidate for Governor, in a speech Sunday evening at Carnegie Hall, pledged himself to a measure which would merge the Tenement and Health Departments and give the latter supervision over all tenement houses here. "In the last analysis, supervision of the tenement buildings, in which the major portion of the people of this city and the major portion of the people of this State are resident, must concern itself with sanitary requirements," he said. "The Tenement House Department must reflect with the Health Department on what should be required of owners of buildings in the maintenance of safe and sanitary conditions. Under our law the Health Department has great powers which are not within the province of the Tenement House Department. "I propose and pledge myself to a measure which will merge the two into one, giving the Health Department supervision over all the tenement houses in New York City, with a view to making the dwellings of the people of the City of New York cheerful and sanitary, fit for human habitation." Judge Panken, discussing the present situation of the milk quarantine with the supply of milk to the people of this city is directly due to the greed of the milk distributors. It is high time that the distribution of milk be made a governmental function, thus helping the farmer and at the same time assuring wholesome milk to the city dweller." Says Man Threatened to Sever Her Head "I am going to cut your head off," shouted Edward Ward. 30, janitor. 149 West 142d street, it is alleged, at Mrs. Mable Crowley, 271 West 140th street, as she entered her hallway Thursday night. Accused with attempted felonious assault. Ward was held by Magistrate Henry Goodman in the Washington Heights Court for a further hearing this week. According to the police, he has no previous record. The complaint read that Ward had a large knife in his hand and, after he made the threat, lunged forward to strike Mrs. Crowley. His bail was set by the court at $1,000. Absentee Voters Must Apply Before Oct. 16 ALBANY, Oct. 11—Tens of thousands of men and women will be away from home when election day rolls around on November 2. And yet these men and women can express their preference at the polls if they will but remember to file a request with the Board of Elections for an absentee ballot. It's a simple proposition, but October 16 is the last day an affidavit for an absentee ballot may be filed with a Board of Elections. Florence E. S. Knapp, Secretary of State, is calling attention to the fact that requests for an absentee ballot must necessarily be filed with the Boards of Election between October 3 and October 16, inclusive. A Phillip Randolph, organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, is attending the Detroit convention of the American Federation of Labor, where he will present to the delegates of America's greatest labor organization the struggle for a living wage and improved working conditions being waged by the porters.

Smith has confessed to the. hold-up but not the killing. He was found in a place said to be a speak-easy at 132 Academy street. In the place where Smith was arrested two guns were found. Three men were held with him for investigation. McIntosh Assails Segregation in Bronx Eurene McIntosh of the real estate firm of E. McIntosh of 360 East 165th street, in a letter sent last week to 165 pastors of all Christian denominations in the Bronx, said that it is well-nigh impossible for a Negro to purchase property in desirable localities. No matter how upright or respectable the person may be, he is unable to rent or buy in a neighborhood already predominantly inhabited by colored people. Such neighborhoods, the letter goes on, "are ghettos and most of the houses and tenements in them have been long ago vacated by white people because of unsanitary conditions." Asserting that there seems to be a general understanding not to rent or sell property in the district, the letter continues: "As a Christian, it seems to me that oppression, no matter where or against whom, ought to have the attention of the Christian Church, and that the silence of the Church upon these and other oppressive conditions heaped against the colored people which are commonly known to exist not only in Brussels, but on the country, and the churches' own policy of circumscription for the colored man, are not only incompatible with true religion, but give aid and consolation to the oppressors." LEAGUE ANNOUNCES TWO FELLOWSHIPS The National Urban League announces the appointment of two social service "Fellows" to the New York School of Social Work for the school year 1926-27. They are Miss Eleanor E. Coleman, graduate of Fisk University, class 1922, and George Goodman, graduate of Lincoln University, class 1926. Miss Coleman is a native of Louisiana and has for the last two years been secretary of Girls' Work for the Y. W. C. A. of Germantown, Pa. Mr. Goodman has been playground worker in Hartford, Connecticut, for several summers, a member of the football team of Lincoln University for four years and is a public speaker of unusual talent. These Fellowships are for $1,500 each and provide for a year's study. Following the completion of their courses, these two young people will engage in professional social work. Accused of taking his employer's automobile without permission and running down a woman, and colliding with a horse and wagon, which caused the machine to be wrecked, Roland Thomas, 28, 65 West 140th street, was held in $5,000 bail by Magistrate Gordon in Harlem Court Saturday for a further hearing. Dr. George Lockwood, owner of the machine, 56 East 126th street, said that Thomas took the machine out of the garage at 105 East 126th street, and after visiting several "speakeasies" went on a joy ride. Thomas pleaded not guilty to the charge. Herbert A. Allen IMPRESARIO Artists furnished for all occasions. Special attention given Churches and Schools. 434 WEST 163RD ST. N. V. C.

Wednesday, October 13, 1926 A Living Death A Living Death THE USUAL condemnatory editorials in both the white and Negro press will follow last week's lynching atrocities in South Carolina and Tennessee. The usual protest meetings will be held and the usual resolutions sent to President Coolidge and others. THE CHALLENGE given by the mob to constituted authority in this most recent outrage is clear and unmistakable. The four victims were not hunted down by bloodhounds belonging to the sheriff and lynched while the heat of racial hatred was on the bloodthirsty mob. All four were taken from the confines of jails. In the South Carolina affair the three victims had been in custody since last April. They had been tried and convicted, the two men being sentenced to death and their sister to life in prison. New trials, granted by the State Supreme Court, were in progress, and the presiding justice had directed a verdict of not guilty in the case of one of the defendants when the lynchings took place. PREMEDITATED MURDER is the only phrase which can cover these three deaths. Yet nothing will be done to bring the guilty to judgment. The usual verdict, "by parties unknown," has already been rendered. The Tennessee affair is just as defenseless. The victim, according to the police, had had an argument with a white farmer while they were both in a dice game. The white man was slain. BUT WHY WASTE words and space recounting details. What is to be done about lynching? What are we going to do about it? What is there within our power that we can do about it? CONGRESS refuses to pass a law making lynching a Federal crime, and even if it did and the law was not enforced any better than the Volstead Act, what good would it do? The President says and does nothing about it. Meanwhile lynching goes, and will go, merrily on. MORE AND MORE it is becoming apparent that the cure for lynching must be found among the group which suffers most from lynching, even if it means retaliation and violence—probably the most costly weapon a minority group can attempt to wield. Though disastrous, fire can be used to put out fire. This means that each lynching would be followed by lynching and race riots all over the country with their attendant slaying of innocent people, WHITE AND BLACK, and the disruption of business and commerce. IN SUCH A STRUGGLE the Negro would be faced with complete extinction, but there would be white South Carolina victims, however few. With population odds ten to one against the Negro, his plight would be almost --- EDITORIAL PAGE hopeless. But it is almost hopeless now. Efforts of the Negro to work out his own salvation by working with his hands and brains, his acquisition of education and knowledge, even the sacrifice of his life in times of war, are not sufficient to cause the Government to come to the rescue and put an end to this national disgrace. HIS BACK IS AGAINST THE WALL. He is outnumbered. He is almost weaponless. Each time a Negro is lynched in America all Negroes come a little nearer that slow, living death, which is worse than death itself. How should he die?

(My commission expires March 30, 1928.) EXPRESSED BY OUR CONTEMPORARIES The South Carolina Lunching (From the New York Times.) Lynching at Alken, S. C. of three Negroes, who had been taken from jail by a mob, was a wanton act of savagery. The victims were released in a wood, aud, in Mexican style, shot down as they ran. Such is the statement of the Assistant Chief of Police. These Negroes were to be tried a second time, a new trial having been granted after their conviction for the murder of Sheriff Howard, who was killed while making a liquor raid upon a house in which the Negroes lived. On the first trial they testified that they did not know the raiders were officers. The two men were sentenced to death and the woman received a life term. On the second trial a verdict of not guilty was rendered in the case of one of the Negroes. He was then rearrested on a warrant charging assault with intent to kill and committed to the Alken jail. Judge S. T. Langham stopped the trial of this defendant, and it seems to have been his action that roused the mob spirit. The jail was stormed at night after a quiet day in court. "The crowd was the most orderly I have ever seen," said Judge Langham after the lynching. His intertwining was the result of a conviction that had been against the defendant acquitted. But there should have been no doubt that the law would take its course, with the probability that all three defendants would be convicted again. The only provocation given for the lynching is that "Sherif Howard was a very popular man and every one felt that his murder was a fearful thing." The lynching of the three Negroes was thus an act of vengeance. It was a more "fearful" thing and an ugly stain upon the good name of South Carolina. In 1955 it was one of three States in the South where no lynching occurred. In some schools among the Alken institute for whites the Schoolhead Normal and Industrial School for Negroes. It has a population of about 5,000, and is a winter resort frequented by Northerners. In Virginia when a Negro charged Robert R. Moton's Annual Report Takes Note of Negro's Economic Rise Robert R. Moton's Annual Report Takes Note of Negro's Economic Rise with the "unmentionable crime" was lynched in August, the State newspaper called the affair "Virginia's shame," and other newspapers demanded "swift punishment" of the guilty. The South is setting its face against lynching, and the crime will be punished for court that it will be denounced as an atrocity. Judge Langham has already summoned the Grand Jury to make an investigation. None of the conventional excuses for reversion to lynch law appear in the most recent Southern atrocity. The three Negroes who were shot to death at Aiken, S. C., one of them a woman, had received prompt enough trials, and one of them had just been cleared of the charge of conspiracy to murder before he was taken out and lynched. The South Carolinians who took part in the killing of these Negroes expressed all too plainly their contempt for the machinery of justice in their own State. It does not appear that the jailer and the Sheriff made any very determined effort to save their prisoners. The cold bloodedness of this particular lynching is the most disturbing thing about the reputed crime of which the Negroes convicted at their first trial occurred months ago, and, unfortunately it was, it did not even at the time of its commission have any of the usual elements which drive a populace to forget civilization and turn back to the law of the jungle. Other Southern States have proved that lynch TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala.—increased enrollment in Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute and other schools is attributed to the steady improvement made in economic conditions among Negroes since the war by Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, in his recently published annual report to the Board of Trustees covering the Institute activities during the academic year of 1934-1952. "Parents are increasingly able to provide educational facilities for their children." the report declares. During the year 2,304 students received instruction in organized classes. Of this number, 1,962 were registered in the regular school term. The remainder were enrolled in summer school, in short courses, in the school for practice teaching and in extension courses. Of the 1,862 students enrolled in the regular courses, 1,109 or nearly two-thirds were boys. BEGIN COLLEGE WORK The report calls attention to the development of regular college courses in home economics, business practice and education. These advance courses have been added in response to demand by public school officials in Alabama and other southern states for college trained teachers in public schools. In May, 1825, the Institute's first degrees were conferred upon six candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Science in the Department of Agriculture. In the college courses as in the normal and high school work the effort is made to correlate classroom work with the daily activities of life. Among the latter activities of the report lists the Department of Records and Research, publishers of the Negro Year Book, the General Extension Department which conducts the Annual Negro Conference and other agricultural gatherings, the business-league which sponsors National Negro Health Week and the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital clinic. NEED ADDITIONAL FUNDS The Hampton-Tuskegee Endowment Fund Campaign which was then being conducted and was not completed until after the period covered by the report is mentioned as the outstanding feature of the year's work. Attention is called to the fact that the endowment will not supply adequate funds for the current expenses of the Institute. "While this increased endowment will considerably lessen the burden of soliciting funds," the report reads, "it will nevertheless be necessary for Tuskegee institute to continue its usual campaign for contributions for current expenses as well as other needs of the Institute." Among the pressing needs of the institute in the way of permanent improvement are: A new brick trussed building, the grade cost about $75,000, to be used as community school and a practice school for students in teacher training: a $100,000 engineering building to provide for advanced courses in electricity, steam and mechanics; and a $250,000 auditorium and gymnasium. NOTES RACE PROGRESS Concluding the report. Dr. Morton notes the "evidence on every hand of steady and substantial progress being made by colored people in all lines of endeavor. Equality gratifying is the fact that out of this progress Negroes themselves are contributing more and more largely to the cost of education for their children. "There was never a time when interest in the welfare of the Negro has been more widespread and substantial than now. More and more space is being given in the public press to the positive side of Negro life, particularly in the southern press. There is an increasing number of influential citizens in every commun- (From the Evening Post. ) ings are by no means inevitable and thereby improved their standing among the civilized communities of the world. South Carolina could do much to remove this stain by punishing the men who so openly insulted the courts of law of the State, but that they will be punished is too much to hope for. If that were even remotely possible, the lynching would never have occurred. (From the New York World.) Three Negroes were taken from jail at Alken, S. C., Friday and lynched. The same night a Negro was taken from jail at Dover, Tenn., and lynched. Both mobs were armed and masked; both sheriffs plead that they were overpowered in jail; Coroners' juries promptly returned verdicts that the Negroes came to their death at the hands of "unknown parties." In both cases the law with due diligence had been put into operation and the prisoners were held in jail awaiting trial. For their purposes the South Carolina and Tennessee mobs did not need to know whether the three men and one woman were guilty of innocence. In defence of the law and the they murdered the prisoners myhow. It is all an old story. That is the disheartening part of it. There are sections of the South where the press and public officials on occasion refuse to condone lynchings in any circumstances. But that does not stop lynchings. The only way to stop them is by the rigorous punishment of the lynchers. How often does that follow? What do South Carolina and Tennessee in these instances propose to do for the credit of the State in the vindication of the law? ity who are concerning them selves directly with the matter of an equal opportunity for Negro citizens in all phases of life." BUREAU RECOGNIZES SLAVE MARRIAGES WASHINGTON, Sept. 27. Slave marriages finally have been recognized by the Pension Bureau. The case was that of Cintyh E. Brown, now living at St. Paul, Minn., the widow of Mathew Brown, a slave, who, after he was freed, enlisted with the Douglas Independent Battery, U. S. Colored Light Artillery. The Browns were married before freedom, according to the slaveustom. The widow wrote to Senator Shipstead of Minnesota that after the war they were informed they would have to be married again, which they did in 1872. The Pension Bureau had the record of that marriage. It at first declined to allow the widow an increase of $50 from $30 to $50 a month under the recent pension act, on the ground that the wedding took place after Brown's service with the Union army. After the letter explaining the earlier slave marriage the increase was allowed. SEEK ADVICE OF NEGRO DOCTORS PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 4.—Marked progress in tuberculosis prevention work among Negroes as a result of the employment of medical attendants of their own race is revealed in reports made public Saturday by Dr. Charles J. Hatfield, former President of the National Tuberculosis Association and now Director of the Henry Philps Institute of the University of Pennsylvania. The reports, compiled for the institute's Advisory Council of prominent physicians, scientists and educators, show that while fewer than 100 Negroes a year applied for treatment in the institute when work among their race was carried on exclusively by white agencies, the total now has reached more than 2,600 annually since the employment of Negro doctors and nurses.

LETTERS To Fight Michigan Attack on Rights Law An attack upon the Civil Rights law of the State of Michigan, in the form of an opinion by a judge that a theatre is not a public enterprise, "but is private property, with the right to conduct its business privately the same as any other private citizen transacts his own affairs," will meet with the determined opposition of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, at whose instance the Michigan Civil Rights Bill was enacted, in the case announced today at the National Office. The opinion in question was delivered by Leonard D. Verdler, judge of the Superior Court of Grand Rapids, Mich., in the case of Dr. Emmett N. Bolden, who was denied an orchestra seat, on account of his race, by the Grand Rapids Operating Corporation in its local theatre on December 14, 1925. Judge Verdler suggests in his opinion that, since a theatre is not a "public enterprise," but private property, it is a very serious question "whether the Civil Rights Act does not contrainseasures of the U. S. Constitution. The case, therefore, involves the validity of the Civil Rights Law in the State of Michigan as it applies to the theaters and other places of public entertainment. Addresses N. C. Univ. Audience Young Spaulding Speaks on "World Outlook" as Seen at Helsingfors Chapel HHl. N. C. Oct. 1.—Charles C. Spalding, 11. of the president of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, was one of the speakers at the recent. Y. M. C. A. Conference at the University of North Carolina. It was the first time a colored student had ever spoken at this institution. Just back from the World Y. M. C. A. Conference at Helsingfors, he spoke on "World Outlook" as seen from that notable gathering, where forty nationalities were represented. Among other things he said: My trip to Europe has inspired me. It has given me an increasing appreciation of my fellow-man and the Gospel of Jesus Christ; a Gospel that uplifts and beautifies the lives of men. As this Gospel is translated into unselfish and genuine cooperation the world outlook becomes brighter and brighter. Someone has said that the world is growing better and worse all the time. I thank God that it seems to be growing faster than it is growing better days. I better understand between all nations and peoples; and we are beginning to realize as never before our dependence, one upon the other." WOULD CHECK MIGRATION WASHINGTON — From Richmond, Va. comes the report that at the recent annual convention of the Mortgage Bankers' Association of America, held in that city, a resolution was adopted urging Congress to amend the immigration law by raising the quota of immigrants from two to six per cent for six years, beginning July, 1827. The effect of such Congressional action would be to check the migration of colored people from the South to the industrial centers of the North and to further retard the industrial progress of colored citizens.

Today the growing American youth has before him as shining goals the great champions in the various fields of sport. Our boxing champions, our golfing champions, our swimming champions are generally considered the champions of the world. But the physical perfection necessary to become a champion in any field of physical activity is not a matter of accident or chance. Back of every champion you will find a ground work of sound physical development which has been maintained by constant exercise and intelligent training. Every young boy has the desire to attain a high degree of physical fitness. Many, however, are handicapped by lack of proper information on training rules and care of the U. S. Public Health Service has prepared a publication to ill this very need. This publication, entitled "Keeping Fit," gives authoritative information on sound physical development, illustrated with numerous charts, diagrams, and pictures. Other important information on personal hygiene with special chapters on sex hygiene for the growing boy and young man are included.
