Wife Will Recover; Husband Kills Self DIAMOND CONVICTED
FLAG GIVEN BY JERSEY WOMEN OF KUKLUXKLAN RETURNED
West Asbury Park Welfare Association Resents Attitude of Hooded Order Toward Negroes
ASBURY PARK, Nov. 22.
An American flag "presented" by the Asbury Park Laries of the Ku Klux Klan to the West Asbury Welfare Association, an organization if colored people interested in uplift work, has been returned by the organization to the hooded order.
Accompanying the flag that the West Asbury Welfare Association returned to the organization of hooded women was a letter in which the "gift" was declined, "not the least because of any lack of reverence for the national emblem," but because of the Klan's attitude toward colored people.
Mrs. Montgomery Jones of 1206 Washington avenue, director of the association, said that the flag was fit at the welfare organization's ome at 427 Myrtle avenue by a woman describing herself as Mrs. Da Hopkins of 140 West Sylvania avenue, Avon, who said she was a member of the "Asbury Park Lies of the Ku Klux Klan." "The flag was wrapped in a fragrant piece of wrapping paper that wasn't large enough to go around the flag," said Mrs. Jones. It was a disgrace to the flag, for which I thought this organization ad more respect."

MOTHER'S BULLET WOUND NOT FATAL; RETURNS HOME; PAIR HAD ROW SATURDAY NIGHT OVER MONEY AFFAIRS; FATHER DIED INSTANTLY
At First Thought That Mrs. Mary Martin Would Die After Husband Shot Her and Jumped Through Fourth Floor Window to Death Below
Three innocently sobbing children stood on the verge of complete orphanage as one ambulance carried their father to the city morgue at Bellevue Hospital, a victim of suicide, and another rushed their mother to the Harlem Hospital with a bullet, one of three fired at her, lodged in her neck, Saturday night.
The children, Eliza, 11; Louise, 9, and Margery, 2, were those of James E. Martin, 52, 2137 Seventh avenue, near 127th street, and his wife, Mary, 26, whom he shot just before leaping from the kitchen window of the apartment of Mrs. Matilda George, in which they rented a room. Alma and Australia, two more of the children, are said to be living with a sister of the mother at St. Thomas, in the Virgin Islands.
Mrs. Martin, at first thought to be seriously wounded, is much improved, and returned home Monday, only to find that her children had been taken away by the police, exactly where she had not been able to find out.
Although she is up and walking around the house, Mrs. Martin complained that she was yet very weak. A three-inch bandage is wrapped around her head and covers the wounds in the neck.
Shots, Then Leaps.
Difference in opinion as to the appropriation of Martin's weekly earnings caused the dispute that led to the shooting and suicide, neighbors stated.
It had been his custom to give his wife his entire wages on Saturday nights, reports state, but this week there was a shortage of $13 and the argument ensued.
However, the sharp tones soon died down and Martin is said to have gone into the bedroom and lied down. After a brief relaxation, he arose and, after brushing his hair, went into the kitchen which was shared with Mrs. George, the children said.
Three reports of a revolver were then heard. One of the bullets was lodged in Mrs. Martin's neck while the two others went clear of their mark. Evidently dropping his gun immediately, the man jumped out of the window to the yard four floors beneath.
The wounded woman, in her dilemma, rushed through the hall and apparently fell bodily into the glass paneled door of the bedroom of Mrs. George, smashing the pane. She went into unconsciousness as she fell on the bedroom floor.
In the meantime, the members of the George family, as well as other occupants of the apartment house, hearing the shots and dis-

White, it is alleged, was engaged in an argument with Miss McMurtry when she became infuriated and drew a 32-calibre revolver and fired three shots at the man. Two of them entered the abdomen and the third found its mark in his left leg. Neighbors, attracted by the shots, sent for an ambulance from

Ask That Negroes Be Employed
The much talked of inactivity on the part of Negro Harlem in not urging the employment of Negroes in concerns where the colored population spends so much of its earnings was brought to an end with the formation of the Joint Committee for the Employment of Negroes in Harlem. This group was organized at the instance of the New York Urban League and is composed of representatives of all Negro organizations in Harlem. Under its supervision there is now being conducted a campaign of the many Harlem enterprises urging them to employ Negroes. A few stores in Harlem have seen the wisdom of this step, and have employed Negroes in many capacities with much success. At the same time the majority of the merchants have been either adamant or apathetic toward the proposition. The effort will be to show them that there are capable people available for the work, and that they are able to do it satisfactorily. A large number of concrete cases have been collected and will be presented to the employers during the campaign.
During all this week applicants for jobs are being registered at the office of the Urban League, 204 West 136th street, from nine to five o'clock and from six to eight in the evening. Any person who would be interested in the type of work demanded in stores, or who has had experience as stock clerk, sales-girl, switchboard operator, information clerk, stenographer and typist should register with the office during the week. Workers will be needed to distribute literature and collect information on the situation. Any one interested is asked to communicate with the Industrial Department of the Urban League for suggestions.

Youth, in New York but Three Weeks, Convicted of Robbery in First Degree
Mother of Defendant, Who Came Here From Philadelphia and Member of Y. M. C. A. Staff, Where He Lived, Appear as Character Witnesses.
Charged with robbery, grand larceny, and assault in the first degree, Isaac Sawyer, 19, formerly of Philadelphia and in New York City only three weeks, went to trial on Monday before Judge Koenig and a jury in Part Six. Court of General Sessions. After a trial consuming about three hours he was found guilty of robbery in the first degree and will be sentenced on November 29.
It is alleged that Sawyer, who was stopping at the West 135th Street Branch of the Y. M. C. A. and Hubert. Grant's address unknown, on the evening of October 29, robbed Benjamin Wise, a laundryman, at 320 West Fifty-seventh street, of $12.
It was further alleged that Grant held a pistol, which was the property of Sawyer, on Wise, while Sawyer emptied the laundryman's cash drawer. Mrs. Rhoebe Sawyer, mother of the youthful defendant, came to New York to testify to the good character of her son. Kathleen Burrell Jr. of the Y. M. C. A. staff testified that he recalled seeing Sawyer about the Y. M. C. A. lobby between 8 and 5:30 on the night of the alleged crime. It was claimed by the prosecution that the crime was committed about 9 P. M. on the evening of the 29th of October. The jury, in weighing the evidence, gave more credence to a confession written by the defendant at Police Headquarters after his arrest on October 30 than to the testimony presented on the behalf of the defendant.
Sawyer, who was represented by Attorney Joseph Traub, had worked as a waiter in the Victory Restaurant, 400 Lenox avenue, almost ever since his arrival in New York. H u b e r t Grant, co-defendant named in the indictment, pleaded guilty to attempted grand larceny on Friday of last week.
Angered when he failed to locate his wife, Frederick, Pinder, 28, 160 W. 144th street, proceeded to use abusive language. It was testified, last week by Mrs. Madge Cox, 262 W. 133rd street, when Pinder was arraigned before Magistrate McQuade in. Heights Court, charged with disorderly conduct. He was sentenced to ten days in the Workhouse.

The prohibition amendment is making strange bedfellows in law, if not in fact. Last week, after tenants had complained that a familiar odor was discovered in the hallways of the apartment house at 100 W. 119th street, detectives broke in a door on the fourth floor and placed under arrest a man who gave his name as the Rev. Joseph Dell. 47, white, a teacher of Hebrew, and Thomas Cotton, 25, 78 W. 132d street. Both men were charged with violating the prohibition law and, according to the police, have been turned over to the Federal authorities. According to the police, the wet goods on hand, that in the making and the equipment found in the apartment is as follows:
One 100-gallon still and two fifty-gallon stills, all in operation; three large vats holding about 1,500 gallons of mash; twenty-four fifty-gallon barrels of mash, two fifty-gallon barrels of alcohol; one forty-gallon barrel of alcohol, 400 pounds of sugar, three bags of grain, 250 feet of two-inch rubber hose, pressure pumps, metal pans, coloring extract, four one-gallon jars of alcohol, three five-gallon jars of alcohol, one five-gallon jar of whiskey, gauges, an assortment of tools and several hundred feet of lumber.

Former Sentence Was for Short Term - Stole Taxicab
A man whose crime was a fondness for joy riding in borrowed taxicabs was sentenced Wednesday for life imprisonment in Sing Sing prison under the rigid provisions of the Baumes act.
Judge William Allen in General Sessions expressed regret that he was compelled to revoke a sentence of one and a half years' imprisonment for Frank Redding, 39 years old, and send him away for life, a punishment once restricted to murderers.
"I am very sorry about this." Judge Allen said. "While you might be termed an habitual criminal you are not a dangerous one. The probation officer tells me you are not very strong mentally and were drunk when you stole the automobile. I will recommend your case

Charged with felonious assault, Maron Clanton, white, 23, 30 Post avenue, near Academy street, was held in $3,000 hall to await action of the Grand Jury when he was arranging last week before Magistrate McQuade in Heights Court. Thomas Harris, 33, 108 West 123th street, says he will lose the sight of his right eye as the result of being assaulted by Clanton on November 1. Harris told the magistrate that physicians "informed him there was no chance of his ever again being able to see out of the injured organ. Although the charge against Clanton was a felony, he was granted the privilege of ball, as he had no previous police record. Being unable to arrange ball he was sent to the Tomh.

Redding stole a taxicab September 10 while intoxicated and rode about in it for one hour. His record showed he had done the same thing twice before. At Sing Sing the warden discovered that sixteen years ago he had been convicted of a felony in Pennsylvania. This brought him within the scope of the "habitual criminal" clause of the Baumes act and the warden sent him back to the court for life sentence.

welfare of the Negro, such as the N. A. A. C. P., do and will find that the college trained man is indispensable, to their greatest success. The institutions of higher learning inspire ideals in their students and teach them the real meaning of the mission of life. Men with these things inculcated with their education are endowed with the leadership qualities which the Negro needs for more rapid advancement. Dr. Johnson said that his aim will be to make Howard University students think. His primary mission is the development of thinkers at Howard. With the alumni, declared the speaker, rests the duty of supporting this ideal of the institution higher learning. Howard, a pioneer and leader of this thought, must have the wholehearted support, he graduates in order to move the value of its service in producing well trained men and women for race leadership.
The other speakers who welcomed Howard's new president into office and pledged him the support of their particular followers, as well as the whole race, were Dr. Charles A. Butler, president of the Howard Club: Miss Frances Gunner. 15. executive secretary of the Y. W. C. A. in Brooklyn; Dean D. O. W. C. A. in Dean of the College of Education of Howard; Dr. E. P. Roberts, president of Lincoln University Alumni; Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, representing Pisk University; Paul Kellogg, editor of the Survey, and Dr. J. E. Moorland. 91. member of the Executive Committee of the Board oftees. who introduced Dr. Johnson. Letters were read from Theodore Boosees, former of the Board of Trustees; Julian W. Mack, Judge of the U. S. Circuit Court, and Chancellor Elmer E. Brown of New York University, expressing their regret at not being able to attend the meeting to speak.
An organ solo, played by Dr. Melville Charlton, Mus. Doc. "24," received an encore. Praak Harrison, Mus. D. "22," sang Handel's "Arm, Arm. Ye Brave," while Miss Alma Melba Brown also sang a solo, immediately preceding the benediction the entire audience stood and sang the Howard University Alma Mater. A banquet was given in Dr. Johnson's honor later on in the evening.

"My husband shot me and jumped out of the window," Mrs. Martin gained consciousness long enough to utter. She was removed to the hospital upon orders of Dr. Montelli, who arrived a few minutes later. Martin had been killed probably instantly, the physician asserted in pronouncing him dead. The body was carried to the morgue of Bellvue Hospital. The crying children were taken by the police to the 123rd street station, where they were questioned.

evidence, the defense began bargaining to be allowed to change ground plea of not guilty to the charge of murder in the first degree to a lesser crime. The State, through Assistant District Attorneys Brothers and MacDonald, accepted a plea of manslaughter in the second degree.
The testimony which caused the defense to withdraw this plea of not guilty presumes possession of the Souvenir of 33 West Fifty-fifth street, coroner's physician, Julius Pinkney, 564 Lenox avenue, who was shot in the arm and in the back by Green, and John MacDonald, 539 West 143rd street. It was alleged that Green got into an argument with a group of men including Mitchell, the deceased, and Julius Pinkney, one of the State's witnesses, from the attorney's party from the premises. There is no accepted version of the origin of the argument.
Green, who had no previous record, was represented by Attorneys Ralph C. Warrick, Joseph Rosalsky, and Alec Sidney Rosenthal. He faces a probable term of 15 years.
Man Dies in Hospital:
Woman Held as Slayer
Charged with homicide, Beatrice Bailey, thirty-six, 134 Edcombe avenue, was arrested following the death in Harlem Hospital of Theodore Gibbs, forty-five, of the same address. Gibbs died of injuries received when a vase was broken on the floor. The woman and Gibbs were in the latter's apartment, drinking and playing cards with three other lodgers of the house, when a $5 bill was missed by Gibbs. He accused the Bailey woman of having taken it, the police said. He also shook her. She retaliated by breaking the vase, over his head, and he fell unconscious.

N. Y. U. Students Want More Harrison Lectures
In recognition of the learning and ability evinced by a black scholar in the lectures which he had been invited to deliver before its students, New York University has assigned Dr. Hubert H. Harrison to lecture permanently for the full academic year on "Contemporary Civilization". The course will begin on Monday. The course being outside of the regular curriculum, is intended to afford the undergraduates of University Heights an opportunity to establish those broader contacts with culture which the pressure of their required studies prevents them from making. Dr. Harrison will cover from week to week such subjects as world affairs, science, literature, social economics, recent discoveries and, current events. Mr. Daniel Ecker of the M.A. department of music was instrumental in making the necessary arrangements on behalf of the students who attended Dr. Harrison's earlier lectures.
The students, including whites, Negroes, Chinese and Japanese, were enthusiastic and outspoken in regard to the enjoyable and instructive quality of the Negro lecturer's previous talks.
Dr. Harrison is also a lecturer for the Board of Education. He will speak at the 135th Street Library on Thursday evening of this week on "The World and Mr. Wells."

Fight Over Will of Late Brooklyn Politician Now Closed
Estate of $10,000 Involved in Court Proceedings Instituted by New Haven Woman
Mrs. Flora Brown, 97 years old, who stated that she was the first wife of the late William Henderson, a well-known politician and business man, lost her right in the case of the will of the deceased in the Surrogate's Court on Nov. 16. She also signed a release against the estate for the sum of $200.
The case which had been postponed until November 15, because Brown attorney, Counsellor Myles Paige, was in the midst of a campaign, came up before Judge Vingate and a jury. Mrs. Brown made a fight against the probating of the will, alleging that Mr. Henderson was not of sound mind when he executed it; but Attorney John McGinnis, white, made a successful effort in keeping out testimony to the sanity of Henderson at the attorney for Mrs. Emma Acco Henderson, the widow of Mr. Henderson.
Mrs. Brown alleged that she was the widow of Henderson, having married him many years ago in Washington, N. C., and it is reported that she had evidence to prove, but her attorney was unable to get that into the record, as the case dealt with the competency of Fr. Henderson to make a will at the time he died.
Mrs. Brown alleges that Henderson left her shortly after their mar

riage, and she was led to believe that he was dead, and that accounted for her marrying Mr. Brown. She has lived at 242 York street, New Haven, Conn., for a number of years, and with her is a son that she states is a result of her marriage to Henderson. He was remembered in Henderson's will to the extent of one dollar, "because of his lack of industry and behavior."
The estate is valued at about $19,000. There is over $4,500 in the bank, a house at 39 West Street, which is assessed at $4,500, and some lofts on W.L. Washington L. I., D. Nixon, a friend of Henderson, was made executor of the estate and was one of the defendants in the action. He was represented by Attorney Franklin W. Morton, who also drew the will.
Mrs. Emma Accoose Henderson, widow of the deceased, married Henderson within a year after Mrs. Janie Henderson, who had been married to Henderson, died. The present Mrs. Henderson had been in the employ of Henderson for over twenty years before she married him. Henderson died November 20, 1935. At the time of his death it was reported that he jumped from a window in the Long Island College Hospital, where he was a child. He had been sick for some time.
The release that Mrs. Flora Brown (or Henderson) signed was also signed by her attorneys, Dyrett, Hall and Patterson, of Manhattan, Mrs. Emma Henderson, John D. Nixon and Attorneys McGennis and Morton. The big reason for the signing was due to Mrs. Brown's age, as it is said that if she fought for her dower rights, she would not have received such more. Fifty dollars each was also given to the two sons of Mr. Henderson, Robert and Corpelius.

Brooklyn "Number Bankers" in Panic as District Attorney Starts Drive
Justices in Court of Special Sessions to Deal Severely With Culprits Brought Before Them
"Number runners and bankers," as a certain class of a alleged policy gamblers who collect numbers and who pay so much on the dollar to the winner are called. received quite a shock in the Court of Special Sessions on Friday, Nov. 19, when eight alleged runners were attended to days on Wednesday they were arrested Nov. 15. The men are: George Peterson, Dudley Mason, Oscar Pilgrim, George Ross, John Meeks, William Jones Noel Boyce and Joseph Armstrong. Hereford the runners have been able to beat the charges of policy playing or escape with a small fine, but not under the new Baumes law, which in the sections having to do with the technicalities through which the "technician" men have found an avenue of escape.
There were fifty of these alleged "bankers and runners" on the calendar for trial on Monday before Justice O'Connor, Matherney and others oaths. It was possible to place only eight on trial and they were convicted. The other trials were put on the calendar for Nov. 22.
Figures Indicate House Numbers.
On prisoner, when asked to explain the numbers on pieces of papers found in his possession, stated that they represented house number 1111, he had cleaned windows and the number of dows cleaned there. One number was 902. That, he told the court, was his code for 1002. He was found guilty.
The drive against these gamblers, who it is alleged had victims among the colored people of Brooklyn, is being carried out by Police Commissioner George V. McLaughlin, the District Attorney's office and the justices of the Court of Special Sessions.
Gambiers Were Confident.
From the way the gambiers were talking in the corridor of the court it was apparent that even in event of a verdict of guilty they would be allowed to remain in freedom on the ground they would not be jailed when they would look for a fine as the extent of their punishment. When the first man was remanded a visible change could be seen to come on the faces of the other defendants and their host of friends who had come to court.
In a talk with our reporter, Assistant District Attorney Louis Goldstein said: "This policy game is a plague on the colored people of Brooklyn. These leeches are sucking from some of their victims almost their daily bread. The real leeches are the group of higher-ups known as 'bankers.' They have collectors all over Brooklyn where they gather food and drink. They gather in over the 'bankers' the play of the poor victims and of the receipts given 10 per cent as their share. Only the severest measures will stamp out this evil.
It is stated that the drive is being carried on now with the determination to get hold of the "bankers". It is said that the chief of these "bankers" in Brooklyn is a character known as "Cuba." "Bankers" in Panic. It is reported that the "bankers" are in a battle at the outcome in court on Nov. 29, and have ordered the remaining "runners" or collectors to be tried to plead guilty. It is stated that it is the purpose of the "bankers" to have the cases disposed of as soon as possible, lest under the vigorous prosecution of the District Attorney's office, together with the known determination of the justices of the Court of Special Sessions to deal with the defendants weaken and give information that may expose those behind this game.
At the day of this writing there was much wailing and crashing of teeth in many sections of Brooklyn, for it is reported that number 510 came out and because of it having been played very heavily the bankers did not pay off on the night of Nov. 15. Whether the court cases had anything to do with it could not be learned.

It leaves one feeling better than when the cold began. HILL'S combines four of the greatest helps modern science has discovered. It was perfected by one of the world's largest laboratories. It is so efficient, so well-proved that the present owners paid $1,000,000 for it.

Utopia Neighborhood Club Matinee at the Cotton Club a Success
---
Presence of Harry Griffin, Who Welcomed Patrons, Adds to Enthusiasm of Occasion
What has become known as "The Spirit of the Utopia" seemed to have pervaded Harlem last Saturday afternoon and the elite turned out in full to the Cotton Club, where the matinee in behalf of the Utopia Neighborhood Club was being staged amidst an atmosphere that made those in attendance feel happy for the joy of being able to be present.
The affair was offered as a part of the big drive for $25,000 inaugurated by the club a few weeks back to carry on the work in behalf of 'child welfare in Harlem, which received its biggest boost when the beautiful new building was formally thrown open to the public. It was an animated scene that greeted the casual observer upon entering the Cotton Club, after being warmly received by Mr. Harry Griffin, the manager, who not only appeared to take unusual delight in the fact that the place was given by those under whose charge it is operated for the occasion, but because about each and every person present seemed to know the ever genial Harry, who reflected as much as any one else the "spirit of the Uttonia."

Standing before an audience of highly intelligent and cultured Negroes at the Utopia Neighborhood House last Saturday evening, Mrs. Mary McLeod-Bethune sounded a keynote that has long found its reflection in the minds of our best people. In her brilliant way she paid tribute to the wonderful accomplishments of this band of self-sacrificing pioneers, who faithfully struggled to raise the enormous sum of $20,000 from their own people to erect a lasting landmark and carry on the work of those who are truly moved with a desire for the uplift of their own.
What has been accomplished by these noble characters of the Utopia Neighborhood Club should stand as an example of inspiration to the ambitions among us. Instead of walking along the beaten path, which has always seen us securing help from the opposite sex, with whom we would have accomplished among their own. In spite of the many handicaps and almost insurmountable obstacles in their path, they have raised within the race this wonderful amount, which we believe should have its effect in bringing them a larger support from a wider circle, which should include those philanthropists of the opposite race, when they can with pride point to that which they have accomplished.
The Uptown Neighborhood House should be a monument of pride to the Negroes of this city and for those of us who have occasion to pass, this concrete example of bringing to trition, a noble idea. We should be proud of the work of our organization—one that has its iron goal that most encomium of all things in any community in any land—CHILD WELFARE.
To Mrs. Daisy C. Reed went a large share of the encomiums of this wonderful southern woman, Mary McLeod-Bethane, whose worth, as a woman of the race in America today, and that as it should be.
Through sheet and hall, through the summer's burning sun, through cold and bitter nights. Daisy C.

Reed to bring the story of her work, which will be a monument to her memory when she is called to the great One who made the things she has done in her allotted time on this muddane sphere.

The Soul of the Negro
From The Sun-Chronicle, London, England
"WHAT a pity she isn't white." This was the remark made by a woman as I left the stage door the other evening. It was not the first time such a comment has been pressed. It is the painful burden of the colored people—the penalization for an accident of birth—to be made to feel out of focus with the rest of humanity. There are some people I have met who appear to find it difficult to credit a Negro with a soul. Perhaps they are prepared to admit that soul of sorors" but that it is on the same plane as that of the White race they refuse to acknowledge.

They would learn something, perhaps, of the acute sensibility of his feelings, of his childish trust in human nature, of his humility and instructive generosity. For, when it comes down to a matter of solid fact, diversed from prejudice, the Negro instincts, all his feelings are white to the core. He may not be so sophisticated, developed as the white man, but he certainly not a human pariah whose rightful place is in the gutter.

A few years ago this attitude towards color people was ver. marked. Today, but so much in evidence, but it still exists.
Absurd and Unfair.
There are still people who think that a Negro has about as much sensitiveness as a brute beast that has no part, dominated by strange complexes and desires. To them a white soul in a black skin appears an impossible combination.
How absurd it all is—how utterly unfair! There is not a colorful man or a colored woman in this case not bitterly present the sentiment that drives them beyond the pale.
If only those who conscious; or unconscious; outrage the sensibilities of the Negro knew—a as I know—who wounds they inlict, what suffer and miser they cause, the would view a man of color from different perceptive. They

Soul of the Sun-Chronicle, London, England
BY FLORENCE MILLS
There is a little song I sing on the stage that indicates something on the Negro's attitude towards Harlem. He is very much like a small boy flattening his nose against a pastry-cook's window and longing for all the good things on the other side of the pane.
Never had no happiness.
Never felt no one's cares.
I'm just a lonesome bit of humanity.
Born on a Friday, I guess.
Then it goes on:
If the sun forgets no one.
Why don't it shine on me?
I'm a little blackbird
Looking for a bluebird, too.

MISS FLORENCE MILLS
There, in a nutshell, you have the inner feeling of the colored people. There is something plaintive about that little song that harmonizes with the tinge of melancholy which is always present in the Negro soul. He wants so badly to "belong" and as yet there is no place for "S him. But there is not the slightest the doubt that the status of the Negro ririe is generally not worse. Color harrere are oppressing and he is getting his foot on the ladder of equality. There are still Negroes who are tio

JoJo, the Dog-Faced Man! goes without saying, for the ladies are well known to the theatrical profession and would have no trouble inducing a large number of the leading white and colored performers to appear for such a benefit.
A number of well known men in the community have volunteered to work with the Utopia in trying to raise the $25,000 needed to carry on the work. Seldom has a drive by an organization of this kind been received with the enthusiasm which marks the efforts of those making sacrifices towards placing on a firm basis a charitable institution which comes before the public seeking aid after the heroic service which made it possible for the club to raise sufficient money to erect the building on West 120th street. The "Spirit of the Utopia" will seep into the innermost reaches of Harlem within a short time and a larger number of poor mothers forced to go out to labor will enjoy the benefits of what is being done in their behalf by this noble band of Harlem ladies.
lynched simply because they are Negroes, but there are also colored men who are barristers, doctors, prominent musicians, actors, poets and writers. And their number is steadily increasing. In America, despite the very real prejudice that exists, the Negro race is rearing its head in all branches of social life. In England where the color line is practically nonexistent Negroes have achieved a virtual equality. Only a few months ago a Negro poet in America produced a volume of verse that proved to be a best-seller. Critics were astonished at its insight and its delicacy of thought and feel.
But it is a hard struggle. I know for I have been through it. For years before I became a success and the poor smiled on me I struggled against adversity and prejudice. When I was born I was just a poor pickaninny, with no prospects but a whole kinney of sorrow. If parents worked hard for me a good education, and it was obvious that would have to

The picturesque, colorful, ever-absorbing atmosphere of the circus still grips us in this twentieth century as the fondest memory of childhood. The smell of the sawdust, the crack of the ringmaster's whip, the whole frenzied mass of joy usually found under the big top will envelop the Savoy Ballroom, 14th street and Lenox avenue, during the monster Xmas charity bazaar, carnival and circus to be held at the famous ballroom for one entire week, every afternoon and evening, beginning Monday, December 6. and continuing until Sunday night. December 12.
All the glamour of the circus: Pungent, memory-laden fragrance of the sawdust ring, thrilling growls from the animal cages, the smell of the sawdust, the hoarse cries of the barkers, the applause of crowds, a mighty, magnificent extravaganza scintillating with novelty, dominating with excitement, rippling with emotion, agitating with action—step up, ladies and gentlemen, and see the big show.
The Savoy Ballroom is giving to the people of Harlem what can honestly be called the biggest event in Harlem's history. A fund is to be raised from the proceeds of the circus week for the purchase of Christmas baskets for needy families of Harlem Ballroom in

established place in this large community, the management of the Savoy believes it a duty to create a fund for such a purpose to do its bit for those less fortunate people who depend for their holiday happiness upon the kindness and charity of others. As a result, a gigantic program embodying an entire circus, with the wild animals, freaks, crows, curiosities, concessions, prizes, contests, hands, peanuts, popcorn and pink lemonade, will delight the populace for one solid week in exactly the same fashion as a real honest-to-goodness circus.
A crew of fifty carpenters will commence working at midnight on Monday, December 6, erecting booths, concession stands and the like, a corps of electricians will light the exterior and interior of the Savoy, building in true circus glory. Decorators will busy themselves transforming the beautiful ballroom into a maze of circus environment.
Persons who visit the Savoy during the week of December 6 will stop and gasp at the wonders wrought in a few hours of intense work on the part of scores of workmen.
No event in Harlem's history can compare with this extravagant program. P. T. Barnum himself could give the public no more than they will get during Circus Week at the Savoy Ballroom.
Every afternoon during the week will be devoted to various children's groups, as well as to the crowns.

"Shuffle Along" Scoring Big at the Lafayette

Show Still Away Above
All Things in Its Line and
Due for a Big Week
Down at the Lafayette Theatre
this week they are presenting one
of the few shows you will have to
up sit forty-eight hours in attempting
to find anything even bordering
on the suggestive. And this same
show, when in the original, proved
better than any argument that a
clean, wholesome production could
hold the people in its grip better
than those things which must depend
up suggestiveness to get along.
We speak of the present edition of "Shuffle Along." One but has
to close his eyes and listen to the
music to be wafted to those days
when Miller and Lyles and Sissle
and Blake sewed up everything
down on Broadway.
The average person, learning that
"SHUFFLE ALONG" SCORING AT LAFAYETTE Read the Letters from Our Many Readers
that original cast is not with the show, would imagine that "Shuffle Along" has lost its attraction. Nothing further from the truth for a glance at the program will show a number of favorites in this edition who are more than holding their own and making it possible for us to say that this same show could easily pack 'em in for two straight weeks at the same house—if not longer.
Those of us who had the good fortune to witness "Shuffle Along" in the original will never lose our taste for the music and the story, a rare comedy which the first note by any orchestra will instantly recall. And for this reason, if no other, it does not take any prophet to predict that success will be the result of the showing at the Lafayette this week.
The long list of performers with the splendid list cast shows the following names that will add a share in drawing people to the house: like Paul, Louise Williams, Mary Barbee, Bob Hamilton, Coley Grant, George Nixon, Edward Jackson, Martha Copeland, Irving Jones, Paul Floyd, Angelaene Plenty, Sidney Easton, Joe Simms, Walter Crumbley, Claude Lawson, Addison Carey, May Barnes, Billy Moore, Reginald Yorke, Roy Holland, Bert Howell, Anna Smallley, with the "Smoky City Four" which includes Udell Davis, Billy Ralls, Johnny James and DeWitt Davis. With Johnny Woods putting over his dancing it will be like the old days to you when you see "Shuffle Along" at the Lafayette.
Dewey Wineglass Promises to Stop the Traffic
Dewey Wineglass will return to the Lafayette Theatre next week with what he tells us is a wow, entitled "Stopping the Traffic." The last time Dewey appeared in his own presentation at the same house he brought us a fine little vehicle which he assembled without having to resort to the stuff so many others seem to think is necessary.
A glance at the advertisement, appearing in another part of this issue will disclose a number of well-known performers supporting Dewey in this, his latest. Along with the feature photoplayers billed for showing the same week with "Stopping the Traffic," another banner week should be the result of the efforts of Manager Frank Schiffman.

I have just finished reading a recent issue of The Amsterdam News and of course. I thoroughly enjoyed your comments on my recollections of the good old days in Harlem. Those were the happy times. Lots of hard work, but we enjoyed it, and found our pleasure in the continual grind and the constant associations of our co-workers and patrons. You know that anyone who has spent as many years as I have in the old neighborhood cannot easily forget, and am like the old man who had about a dozen of friends that will not down, and the interest I still retain in the doings "up yonder" causes me to look for each issue of your paper with more than a little pleasant anticipation.
By the way, I am not alone in this respect, for my friend Billy Burke devours everything pertaining to theatrical comment in the Amsterdam News as eagerly as I do myself. His stay in Harlem was not so prolonged as my own, for he remained at the Lincoln but one year, and what a year that was, with his popular stock company, which presented many of his original plays as well as some of the Broadway hits. By the way, Romeo. I think he felt a little hurt at your ignoring his big type. I also attracted to the Lincoln whille you were the elegance and refinement of the patron who visited the Lafayette to view dramatic shows. For you know, and everyone familiar with Harlem knows, that the first effort along dramatic lines to be made by colored players in Harlem was under his guidance.
Don't get me wrong in this, Romeo. Billy isn't actually peeved, but he did say: "Some day I'm going to make it my business to drop in on my friend Mr. Dougherty and refresh his memory; sort of recall to his mind that the Lincoln stock company was the torrenter, the Lafayette company was the dealer, and that the Lafayette did not attempt to offer the drama until ten years company had been disbanded. The management of the Seventh Avenue theatre at once saw their opportunity and made the switch, and when they did they corralled all the popular players which Mr. Burke had trained, and of course a goodly number of lovers of the higher branch of entertainment followed their idols to the Lafayette. They worked extremely hard while the work was new to his company and he was of their success, as was Mrs. Downs, who had always been alert for anything that would raise the plane of entertainment she was offering, and she was keen to develop the talent for dramatic work among the colored actors. And, boy! what a company that was that Hilly put together—with my help—I fatter myself that I was pretty well posted the capacity of action and was popular in the secrecy and when they were lined up the first house aire, there wasn't much to be criticized in their work, and the cast was a hit from the start. We had an audience to be proud of at the Lincoln and a list of boxholders who never missed a show. I can recall having closed the box office on many occasions as early as 7:30, with seats all sold and the standing room exhausted. No wonder the stock company was loved. Think of the cast—Walker from The Times, Clarence Muse and his wife Ophelia Wilke and Al Watts each exhibited talent—whatever that means—but they could act, and they did act, and they delighted thousands during their season of one year.
I recall one thing in connection with "Bud Carey's Alibi" the play which Billy picked for an opener. It seems that he played the piece himself for many years on the road, and had written a star part that he would have played with Walt Disney. When he and so well did he fit the role that he became to be identified with the character. In fact he lost himself in the part, and he was often spoken of as Bud Carey. It became a part of him, as Joseph Jefferson merged into the character of Hip Van Winkle. I recall two or three other players, and of not the least importance either. They were Charles Oppen, and Dooley Wilson. Well, they each and their set of admirers and their following was loyal and kept the Lincoln Theatre packed nightly.
I read in another column of this issue a condemnation of the vulture of nakedness, which seems to be the main attraction in the modern revues, and I wonder if there is still an element who would appreciate clean, wholesome dramatic productions if offered them. I wonder. Well, old friend, keep up the good work you are doing, and have been doing for so long that you are not the only ones who are moving on, for we cannot stop the flight of time. Perhaps we wouldn't if we could, for it is so, ad pleasant to think of the days that are gone.
THE PUBLIC WANTS WHOLESOME PLAYS.
One of the most potent institutions of the day is the theatre. Its influence is wide and varied. Unfortunately, this influence seems to be of late exerted in the wrong direction by many of our producers. The theatre has become a commercial commodity and it is being dealt with as such. This is the reason for the present parade of salacious plays that grace—or rather disgrace—many of our New York theatres. When asked why he produces this kind of play, the producer answers: It is the kind of play that the public want. Is this the truth? Perhaps it is the play that a certain element of the public want, but certainly this element is by far in the minority. No one has demonstrated this fact more clearly than Anne Nichols with her production "Alice's Irish Rose." This simple and appealing story of love that is

If the immoral play is the kind of play that the producer account for the phenomenal success of "Able's Irish Rose"? One fact alone is responsible for the success that this play has achieved. It possesses a clean and wholesome appeal that the public in general desire in the theatre.
Some European Notes
By Ivan Browning
Liverpool, Eng. 29/10/26.
SAM WOODING and his mighty orchestra opened at the Holborn Empire, London, Monday, and were a lot of joy. They are making a short tour of England before going to Paris, where they open of a night club. They have been very successful in Germany for the past year or so. Some band, I'll say:
THE Versatile Three are in Ireland for three weeks, and cleaning up as usual. These boys are big favorites over here.
OUR good friend, Arthur (Strut) Payne, the well-known bassist, is in Wooding's Orchestra. Mr. Payne is enjoying perfect health and looks it. He is dinner guest at the Browning flat in Doughty street, W. C. L. I. last Sunday.
THE ever popular Scott and Whaley are in Newcastle this week, and holding their own as few teams can. It is indeed remarkable how will these fellows have done during their long years in England. They are a real drawing card everywhere over here and their heads are not in the least swollen. Regular fellows indeed:
THE Duke and Duchess of York. With the Prince of Wales, attended "Bluebirds" at the London Pavilion last week, and this makes the second time in three weeks that the Prince has witnessed the Florence Mills show.
THE revue is drawing some of the finest people in England, and since, dukes, lord, etc., are to be seen in the audience almost every evening. Besides Miss Mill, Johnny Hidden, The Three Eddies and the Southern Trio continue to be big features with the production.
THE Four Harmony Kings are playing Liverpool this week, and return to London Monday, playing the Holiday being over here. They opened November 5th in Birmingham for a tour of the provinces, returning to London this time being busy. Still going and always busy. Cheerio until next time.
AL BROWN, clever little fighter who knocks out his opponents at the Commonwealth Sport Club in Harlem when Jess McMahon ran it, arrived in Paris recently and is stopping at 3 June Sadilot.

The Populace Failed to Turn Out, but the Three Young Ladies Will Go to Washington
That Howard-Lincoln "classic" staged alternately in Philadelphia and Washington - has been the means of creating certain ambitions in the minds of ambition promoters and again we note the another one to draw an appreciable audience to gaze upon the "Bathing Beauties."
Long before "classic" affairs of this kind were thought of "Professor" Moses Fields staged the first big failure of its kind the New Star Casino, these at once updawn and with the same failure lack of it.
On Tuesday evening, at the Renaissance Casino the contest failed to draw as the promoter had expected. We admire the display of unusual nerve on the part of many entrants in these cases, which serves only to prove that nothing stop some of us on our vainful cry.
But everything was fine for the winners as they leave for Washington this afternoon. The fortunate ones number three, them the eleventh of the curls, Mr. Mitlam Walker, who won first prize and who is the same lady who won certain honors at another place some time ago, which were denied her. She was chosen of the people she incidentally thought she was entitled to first place. The others are Charlise Dogget, who took second honors, with Miss Bessie Mitchell taking third. May you root for the palm and we pray that you will not mistake Lincoln for Howard or Howard for Lincoln when you start to yell.
and said, "Take it easy, boy, take it easy."
I knew that I had hurt him. Whatever doubts I had entertained about beating the marvelous Harry Greb vanished. I felt in my heart that if I could get a fight to a decision with him I would be the next world's middleweight champion. I did not only feel it. At that instant I was sure of it as though the victory were already mine. I wasn't that, I underestimated Mr. Greb, it was simply that I had found myself, and that is an experience that comes only once in

Biggest Moment of My Biggest Fight
By TIGER FLOWERS.
(Philadelphia Public Ledger.)
One would think that the biggest moment of my little life must have come when I won the middleweight championship from Harry Greb in Madison Square Garden. It really was not though. That big moment dashed the first time I fought Greb in Fremont, Ohio. August 21, 1924.
It was a ten-round no decision bout, and I was training to make the middleweight limit, despite the fact that the only way I could win the title under those conditions was a knockout. Mr. Walk Miller, my manager, informed me that I must come in over the limit of the class.
"Tiger," he said to me, "I want you to win this fight, but not by too much of a margin. The big thing is to get a bout to a decision, with the championship at stake, and if you go too far ahead tonight we'll never get it."
I could see his point, and it was well taken. But I wasn't sure I would be able to win by a great margin, even if I wanted to. for Mr. Greb was one of the fiercest marvels of the game, and had lost only two or three decisions in some 300 fights. We was in the second round that my big moment came—a moment that I'll never forget as long as I live. We were mixing it up in a lively way when I shifted, and shot a right under the heart.
Mr. Greb tumbled into a clutch.

It was a year and a half later that my reward really came—when Joe Humphries lifted my right hand and shouted to the crowd. "The Winner and New Champion—", but it was an anticlimax to that moment of glory in the little Ohio town.

SUPERIORS AGAIN RETURNED VICTORS McVey at Last at Walker Club Saturday Night
Hoyt Moss, Former Star of Famous Boughs, Now in Lineup With the Popular Brooklynites — Next Game Carded for Thursday Night, Dec. 2, Against the Vonkers Professionals
A rumble of approaching storm was heard from across the bridge, threatening the supremacy of a certain quintet gallivanting on this side of the East River. The Superior "Lightning 5" made it two in a row, defeating the Long Island Whirlwinds by a 29-18 score at Arcadia Hall last Thursday evening.
The victory of the Brooklyn cagers was of the decisive and well-earned variety, proving beyond a doubt their arrival as a big time unit. The Long Island team, though threatening in the latter stages of the first half, never had a chance against their whirlwind passing and strong defense.
With about sixty seconds of playing time behind them, "Al" Thompson, the pivot man, tossed the leather from mid-court. The sphere left "Al's" hands and wended its distant way ceilingward, towards the heavens bent, then dropped like an arrow, surely sent with plummit-like grace and vim through the net meter even touched the rim. Capt. Herndon followed his center with a double from the side, his first of a total of eight.
The Whirlwinds, having great difficulty finding a hole in the Superior defense, resorted to distant hopping. Plate finally found the ring from center, but had his effort nullified when Holmes gave Herndon a long pass, "Sandy" cutting under the basket for a successful try.
With about five minutes to go, Thompson was forced to withdraw from the game when he injured his knee coming out of a scrimmage. Hartlett replaced him at center and registered his first field goal of the season. Culnello was playing fine for the Whirlwinds, making a play out under the basket; he tallied while being fooled, but missed the free throw. His play brought the score to 11-9 at part time.
fifty playing by both teams, the list of which was Plate's fine reeling of a long pass over Bartlett's shoulder, easily registering, Stevens, Herndon and Edwards were working together smoothly, Sandy and Steve divided seven field goals between them, keeping their team way out in front. Percy Holmes, the "little giant" of the Soon defense, showed at his best for intercepting passes and breaking up offensive plays. Percy is without a poor. Constantly with the Whirlwinds in certain scoring positions, they would find the little guard between them and the ball or moving it off the backboard. His playing has made him a great favorite with the fans.
This Thursday (Thanksgiving) the Superiors are idle. Thursday evening, December 2, however, will find them pitted against Louis Garela's "Yonkers Pros." of Westchester Co. Louis believes his team will step up the Brooklynites. His lineup shows: Louis Garela, "Six" Garela (greatly of Renaissance), Monte, "Spees" Moton and "Hop" Hubbard. If the Superiors get over this combination a meeting with the Renaissance team will be in order.
Another new face will be seen in the superior lineup. None other than Hoyt Moss, the Brooklyn favorite of Borough A. C. days, Hoyt hailed as the "boy wonder" of St. Borough-Alpha combats, has returned to basketball and is sure to be welcomed with open arms. Moss save the game up to complete his studies, but has now found it convenient to pull on his togs again. Watch him step!
SHAW AND BAYES LOSE
Billy Franklin of the 1920 Medical Regiment, weighing 157 pounds, closely defeated Henry Shaw of the 180th Infantry, in the six-round feature bout at the Twenty-seventh Division Train Armory last Saturday night.
Franklin led throughout and was in danger at no time. The colored veteran, outweighed by six and one-half pounds, tried hard to make the battle interesting, and once or twice succeeded. but Franklin quickly smothered Henry's offensive.
Franklin tired after setting the pace in the first three rounds and was content to coast through the fourth. Shaw opened this session with a rush, but, having taken a bad heating about the body in the early chapters, could not keep up

McVEY TOPPING WALKER CARD
McVEY TOPPING WALKER CARD
Jack McVey, claimant of the world's colored welterweight championship, and one of the most feared 147-pounders in the profession. will top the Walker Athletic Club's card next Saturday night.
McVey is paired with none other than Bobby Barrett, the redheaded thumper of Clifton Heights, Pa., and perhaps the hardest hitter in the welterweight ranks.
Whether or not Bobby will be able to connect with clusive chin of the shifty colored star is a question that remains to be answered. Barrett will have ten rounds in which to turn the trick.
A corking good semi-final also has been booked. Pierre Gandon, the socking French wetterweight, who celebrated his American debut recently by a technical win over Kid Alberts at the Walker Club, is paired with Babe McGorgary, the Oklahoma Cowboy, who is quite a socker himself.

Buccaneers Take Opener
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Nov. 22.
The Ashbury Park Elks went down to defeat before the Buccaneers, 36-16, in the opening basketball game at Waltz Dream Friday night. The Bues showed a powerful scoring machine with Stainfield, Queen and Pickles Howard, fourteen baskets. Green and Pendleton played good on defense, while the fans liked the floor work of Hayes, a newcomer to shore basketball.
The visitors lacked shooting form, failing to score easy shots after clever passing brought the ball within the fifteen foot zone. They were handicapped by the absence of Stout, former Ashbury H. S. star.
The Rinky Dinks won their opener in the preliminaries, deflecting the crack Trojans 26-18 in a thrilling contest. The Arctic Avenue Y. Juniors lost a heartbreaker 18-17 to the Ventnor Seconds.

Teaching Children to Lie
KATHARINE D. HILL
Most intelligent parents distinguish between the child's romancing, or sheer inability to know truth from fancy, and the actual lie, denying guilt or placing the blame for an offense on an innocent playmate in self-defense. There was a time when I was quite proud of the tact I used in dealing with the former, and of my severity in trying to cure the latter, but I have come to feel that in these latter efforts many of us — though well-meaning parents — have actually encouraged these very faults which we are struggling to correct.
One day when I was chatting with a neighbor our respective children fell into one of those petty quarrels so common to childhood, and my boy interrupted our conversation with some weeping accusation against his little playmate. To my friend's natural chagrin at any unseemly action on the part of her child was added annoyance at the interruption, and her manner was actually terrifying when she turned to the little girl and demanded. "Did you hit Richard?" Self-defense being one of the strongest instincts of the human race, the child cringed and said, "No!"
Evidences were against her, but still, and ever more emphatically, she protested her innocence. In vain I tried to persuade the mother to let the matter drop for a moment, and soon a hysterical mother was disgagging a hysterical child away, saying, "I won't have my child a liar. I'll make her tell the truth."
She was exhausted when she came back a little while later to say she was convinced her little girl had been telling the truth from the beginning, for she had clung to her story even under threat of the whip if she dared to lie.
Poor child! Almost forced to lie in the first place by the demand, "Did you do it?" and by the realization that confession would mean sharp and quick punishment, and then tormented into a hysteria in which she actually came to believe in the innocence she was claiming!
And so it goes. We threaten with hand and voice while we demand, "Did you do it?" or ask a group of children standing in trembling realization of the punishment awaiting the calpurn, "Which one of you did it?" We know there is no instinct stronger than that of self-defense, and yet we ignore that fact, practically forcing the little child to lie and remitting his older brother.
So with little children I have come to avoid these questions under most circumstances. They are having a hard enough time of it to learn to draw the line between fact and fancy without my tempting them in the face of one of the strongest instincts born in them. When it is absolutely necessary to learn whether or not the little one is guilty, I try to pry out the truth by some other method. And if the direct question seems advisable I ask it gently, trying to make it clear that my purpose is to learn the truth rather than to punish. There are very few occasions when it is either wise or profitable to ask which of a group of little children has transgressed. If we do so, they will very likely all claim ignorance or pass the blame from one to the other. And if by chance we discover the culprit, we are apt either to utter an anime warning not to let it happen again, or worse yet, to punish the offender before his comrades, tempting many of them to determine, whenever they are guilty, to lie cleverly enough to escape.
When they are older, with standards more fixed and true. I shall be glad to put them to the test, but in the meanwhile the guilt is mine if I tempt the little ones beyond their strength.
Orange Choir Heard In Recital.
A choir, trained and conducted by Wilson Lamb, gave a concert Tuesday night in the new Orange High School auditorium. Central and Lincoln avenues, for the benefit of the Musical Art Forum of Orange.
The choir gave numbers by Leslie. Hiles. Bach. Gretcheninoff. Coloridge-Taylor. Orlando d Lasso. Burleigh and Smith. Carroll Clark, haritone, sang two groups of solos. Cora Wynn Alexander was accompanist for the choir; Andrades Lindsey for Mr. Clark.
When a splinter has gone very deep into the flesh, try to extract it by steam. Heat a wide-mouthed bottle and fill it two-thirds full with very hot water and place under the injured spot. The suction draws the flesh down when a little pressure is used and the steam in a few moments removes both splinter and inflammation.
This method is particularly good when the splinter has been in for some time.

N. H. Hobbs, two remarkable volumes of Dr. W. E. B.
Dr. Hobbs, written while he was a teacher at Atlanta
University — "Studies in the History of the Negro
Church" — he was good enough to assure his readers
that the Negro Church and the Negro Ministry were the
two most powerful influences for good, or for evil, in the
Negro world. This was over twenty years ago. Nearly five
years ago another great scholar of Negro life, Dr. Carter
J. Woodson, told his readers in his book,
"The History of the Negro Church," that
"for years to come the Negro Church will be the greatest single
influence for good or for evil in the Negro race."
If these statements by these two most
eminent observers of Negro life are to
be accepted as true, and applicable
throughout Negro America, it requires

TROPIC DEATH" is a series of vivid pictures of the West Indies and Central America, pictures of the hot, devastating summer, when "the sun had moved the land of its juice and squeezed it dry"; when "hugs gasped for air, their white breasts, like fowls, soft and palpitating." Pictures of the coming of the rain, splashes of rain, the earth murmuring under it. "Gone the dust." Red mud flowed over the land." Pictures of the tropical sea.

"The row of lecherous huts, the faces and flanks of treatments," from which one looked down onto a galvanized room "that the sun bristled." Pictures of peasant units of an insect life that crawls over squirming bodies, of sickness and poverty and death. Always pictures of death.
For the title of this volume for shadows its contents. Each tale ends with the end of a life, it may be Beryl, her skinny body lost in her croucs bag frock, eating the dust of the earth in a time of famine, later lying dead, her stomach resembling a "windblown balloon." It may be the little boy Gerald, his father a heper, he soon to follow him to Palo Seco, or Ballet killed by a marine, or Ernest, diving for money and eaten by a shark, one thing you may be assured as you start in with a new acton, your portion, and death by honorable or disoblawnable means your end. Only once do you have a believing surprise, once the villain, not the virtuous, is taken.
To those of us who know the West Indies as a pleasant winter resort, who have rowed out in the harbors and watched the policans dive for food, who have gone inland and seen the navyment of the rivers, who have admired the strong peasant women on their way to market, Eric Watrond's picture is like a stunning blow. One asks oneself, can it be true? Is life so terrific in this exquisitely beautiful and seemingly happy land? We saw laughter but Watrond sees little but tears. When happiness does come it is of a poor sort, transient for us to remember in a gone in time to be succeeded in a terror. One wonders whether many people will have the courage to finish a book which by its very title promises death as a constant companion.
Mr. Walrond's style, while vivid and often beautiful, is at times trying. He has the modern method of making sentences out of words. Sometimes it is effective, sometimes not. He does not seem to realize that his milieu is unusual and that if he wishes us really to see the pictures that fond his mind he must take a little more paints in presenting them to us. He has so much to tell, such dazzling figures to show, such daring situations that he ought to do it in the way he may possible. I find, however, that he certainly condenses, his incoherence makes it necessary at times to reread not once but twice before the meaning is clear. Poetry, sickness and sorrow, these are the lot of the black people who move through "Tropic Death." Whether it is typical or not certainly each tale rings true. A sad picture of these British tropics. What a contrast to what Vanderbilt found in

A Busy Woman's Day Off
There are so many things that I might do:
Straighten the closets, tidy up the shelves,
Sew all the loose snaps on my dresses, glue
Clippings in my scrap book, or write letters.
The books need dusting, but that takes so long.
Because I always have to stop and read.
I might call up a few old friends;
it's wrong
To let things like that go—they may be ill.
I ought to wash my hair. I wonder how
Some women keep themselves so groomed. I mount
To shop a little, but it's too late now—
I think I'll have some lunch and see a show.

Hugging Blondes Costs
50 Marks, Brunettes 20
LONDON.—The world-wide authority of the slogan "Gentlemen prefer blondes" just received a vivid illustration in a sentence handed down by a court in Wiesbaden, Baden, Germany. A local burgomaster imposed a fine of 50 marks for embracing a blonde, but only 20 marks for the same offense against a brunette. What is apparently a methodical German attempt to give the controversy a definiteness it has hitherto lacked in the case of the vellan execution by parisans of the thesis "Why not brunettes?" The German court's decision is interpreted in these quarters as a kick against the taunts of foreign publicity agents, and is really intended to provide an opening through which brunettes may rush back to popularity.
Workshop Opened for Maladjusted Girls
Of intense interest to Negro girls of New York is the announcement that the Vocational Adjustment Bureau of New York City has reopened its workshop for maladjusted girls. The bureau attempts to place girls in the work best suited to their mental and emotional capacit
When white people desire to show some token of recognition of the Negro vote during a political campaign or convention, they invariably choose a preacher and make him an alternate delegate or spokesman. Dr. J. W. Brown, of Mother Zion Church, was alternate delegate to the Republican Convention in 1924.
In the last campaign the Rev. A. C. Garner was selected to speak at the largest meeting which the Republican party held during the entire campaign, which was held at Madison Square Garden.
When David Costuna, leader of the Nineteenth Assembly District, desired a colored man to make a speeck against the nomination of a colored man on the party judiciary ticket, as in the last campaign, he selected none other than the Rev. Dr. Emanuel Bolden, who, in eloquent voice, told the colored folk assembled that, "we must be loyal to the party and not raise the 'race issue.'" which was not true, for anyone with half an eye could see that the white people, through Costuna, had already raised the race issue themselves by refusing to designate a colored man on the judiciary ticket, and by insisting in naming a white man to that place, who, by the way, was a Jew, and who lost the office.
With all of this actual participation of the colored minister in the political affairs of the community, it ties and makes surveys, studies and experiments to aid in placement work. Girls are sent to the bureau from approximately eighty social and civic organizations of the city. Under competent supervision the girls are trained in the workshop in occupations which are of therapeptic and under conditions as nearly approximating actual industrial conditions as possible, and are kept until they are ready to take their places in the industrial world. It is expected that co-operation will ensue between the Vocational Adjustment Bureau and the Harlem Vocational Committee. Mrs. Gertrude Johnson McDougall, secretary, a highly efficient organization which has long since given marked attention to the vocational needs of the Negro youth of Harlem.

Plan Symposium on Race's Future
Plan Symposium on Race's Future
Negroes in all parts of the country are receiving these days a questionnaire on the future of their group and the sort of tactics that should be adopted. The "Messenger," a Negro labor monthly, is conducting the symposium.
Many interesting replies have already been received from various sections of the country expressing widely divergent views. A Negro on the editorial staff of a large daily newspaper says "Racial consciousness makes for unhappiness. It augments the shortens the perspective of those who practice it. It engenders hatred by nourishing prejudice."
This journalist holds that "Complete amalgamation of the whites and blacks is absolutely necessary to a solution of the race problem." The district manager of a large Negro weekly is "Neither for nor against amalgamation. It depends on the conditions under which it comes about."
A prominent business man is in favor of complete separation of the races in every shape and form.
The first group of answers will appear in the December number of the "Messenger," which is published in New York City.
Questions:
1. Is the development of Negro racial consciousness (a definite group psychology—stressing and landing of things Negro) compatible with the ideal of Americanism (Nationalism) as expressed in the struggle of the Afroamericans for social and industrial equality with all other citizens?
2. Will this ideal of equal rights and privileges be realized within the next century?
3. If and when this ideal is realized, will it or will it not result in the disappearance of the Negro population through amalagamation?
4. The struggle for the attainment of full citizenship rights and privileges, including industrial equality, is to result in the disappearance of the Negro through amalagamation, do you consider the present efforts to inculcate and develop a race consciousness to be futile and confusing?
5. Do you consider complete amalagamation of the whites and blacks necessary to a solution of our problem?
6. Do you desire to see the Afroamerican group maintain its identity and the trend toward amalagamation cease?
7. Can a minority group like the Afrikaners maintain separate identity and a group consciousness, obtain industrial and social equality with the citizens of the majority group, and mingle freely with them?
8. Do you or do you not believe in segregation, and if so, in what form?

As everybody knows, Old Umtali is the town that Cecil Rhodes gave to Bishop Joseph C. Hartzell and the Methodist Episcopal Church for a mission station. In 1900 Bishop Hartzell began Christian work in Old Umtali, the first mission station of the Methodist Episcopal Church in Rhodesia. From there under his guidance and later under Bishop E. S. Johnson, it has spread until today the Rhodesian Mission Conference has four districts. The Christian community numbers 7,500 and there are 6,000 Sunday school pupils enrolled in 90 schools, Hartzell Training School at Old Umtali is the chief center for these four districts. Radiating from here the Christian workers enter a territory of 62,500 square miles, the size of the States of New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts. They have access to several hundred thousand native peoples, as well as 400,000 Europeans and Asians scattered on farms and in small towns. The towns, however, where many natives work in mines and on farms and as servants are now connected by good automobile roads.
services of Hartzell Training School that each year it has a larger enrollment and a larger staff then before. It has now outgrown the buildings in which it has been housed since 1900. If it is to continue and increase in this training of well-equipped and practical leaders for Rhodesia it must have new and enlarged buildings. No new buildings have been erected in many years and old ones are crumbling away. The annual allowance of the British government for this institution was reduced this year.
The "hub" of the Old Umtall Mission center is the Central Training School, recently renamed "Hartzell Training School" in honor of its founder. This school was founded in its elementary departments in 1900; in 1921 the first four graduates of the higher departments received their diplomas. The first four graduates came from four different tribes in Rhodesia. They are now pastor-teachers among their tribes people. One has been received into membership in the Rhodesia Mission Conference. Three members of the 1923 class have been received into Conference membership. These boys, just out of their kraals, without the backgrounds of Christian homes, have been trained at Old Umtall to take their place in the Conference on equal terms with missionaries from America.
More than one hundred other men, all of whom have received training in this school though not all graduating, are serving as pastor-teachers in outlying mission stations throughout Rhodesia. Acquainted with the customs and way of living, they skilled in the native dialects, accepted not as foreigner but as native to the soil—they can carry on a ministry where the foreign missionary would often be seriously handicapped. THE CURRICULUM. The course of study at Hartzell Training School is largely designed to educate pastor-teachers. But the graduates are teachers not in the senior school. They are equipped to lead their people in their everyday life activities.
One of the outstanding contributions of the school to Rhodesia has been made in the training of practical dairymen, practical farmers, practical industrial workers. On the 2,000-acre farm of the school these leaders-in-training are taught to test soil, to use fertilizer, to rotate crops, to raise a variety of vegetables, to use modern plow and the harrow, to irrigate the soil, to select and improve seed for planting, and to introduce new vegetables and cereals. They are taught to improve the breed of cattle, of sheep, of goats. In the industrial departments they make brick and erect brick buildings, to do black-whitting, to make simple articles of furniture and household decoration. In the medical department all acquire the rudiments of first aid and of brineg and sanitation. Some become qualified nurses. THE PLANT OUTGROWN. So successful have been the ser-

During the last campaign the churches, as compared to other educational institutions in Harlem, contributed the following services to the political education of the Harlem masses:
Four mass meetings were held in colored churches: one colored church (the First Emanuel) made announcements at the general services that registration was essential to voting, and advised the members to register; two churches made special announcements that two colored men were running for office, and one pastor sent a campaign contribution to one of the candidates.

If it is to continue and increase in this training of well-equipped and practical leaders for Rhodesia it must have new and enlarged buildings. No new buildings have been erected in many years and old ones are crumbling away. The annual allowance of the British government for this institution was reduced this year because of "inadequate building and equipment" reported by the school inspector. This necessitated the discontinuance of three teachers.
Plans are already under way for erecting, as soon as building funds are secured, a central building to be used for assembly and administration purposes, and temporarily as a chapel for the large congregation, pending the raising of funds for a new church. The present church is far too small for present needs. The new central building will also have wings for the classrooms. And the proposed industrial department is needed for classes in carpentry, blacksmithing, brickmaking, etc. With a requisite equipment other trades will be added to the curriculum. The cost of these new buildings, outside of the library, including the making of bricks, which will be done by the men of the school, will be about $47,500. Funds for this enterprise are being received by Morris W. Ehnes, treasurer. Board of Foreign Missions. 150 Fifth avenue, New York City.
AN EDUCATOR PRAISES I
Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, chairman of the Commission of the Phelps-Stokes Fund which studied the educational conditions in East Africa in 1924, and widely known as a practical educator, has this to say regarding what he found in Hartzell Training School:
"The departments in this institution are literary, Biblical, teacher-training, agriculture and woodwork. The boys and girls board and lodge separately, but are taught together; the teacher-training has recently been made co-educational. All the men were preparing to be pastor-teachers. There is a practicing school with 400 pupils, in which each student gets two to three months' experience in the year. The fee for entrance is $20, there is no fee for tuition, but the boys give half of each day at work to pay for their board and lodging. This plan is approved both by students and by the authorities.
An interesting feature of the Mission is the Christian Natives' Location, where the people are being taught to live in clean houses in village fashion but with proper sanitation. In this location a Mothers' School is conducted by two missionaries' wives, where in addition to the ordinary injections, the household sanitizer are taught, and instruction is given in the care of children as to food, clothing, sleep and cleani-

ness. Mothers also learn to tell stories and are shown how to teach their children to play and to sing. The Mission has, of course, numerous religious activities. Mention should be made of the printing press, the laundry, the orphanage for babies and the large fields of corn under cultivation." The testimony of the Phelpa-Stokes Fund Commission, of which Homer Leroy Shantz, Ph.D., of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, was a member, regarding the farm-training is of interest. "The teacher at Old Umatil is a first-rate practical farmer who approaches this subject in a way that natives can understand. The experimental plots, where he illus

Christmas "Crisis" Publishes Second Article in Survey of Negro Schools
The Christmas "Crisis," out this week, publishes the second article, on Mississippi, in the series of surveys undertaken by Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois on the Negro Common Schools in Southern States, pursuant to the gift of $5,000 made by the Garland Fund for this purpose. The first article, on education in Georgia, has already been published. The article published this month shows glaring discrepancies in the amounts spent on Negro and white schools in Mississippi, the figures given for a number of typical counties being as follows:
In Mississippi, according to the "Crisis" report, there is no provision for the colored blind children and no school for colored feeble-minded children. In many counties Negro teachers receive less than one-third of the salary paid to whites, the Negro teachers' salaries in some Mississippi counties being as low as $20.13 a month.
Although the whites have voted themselves consolidated rural schools, with up-to-date buildings and equipment valued at $9.461.
The Bravest Man
The Bravest Man in South Carolina
By WILLIAM PICKENS
THE bravest man in all man - Attorney Frede cases of the Lowman get the cases remanded for vented at least the legal lyn was the first cause for briagery of the State toward it
THE bravest man in all South Carolina is a colored man — Attorney Frederick, who dared to appeal the cases of the Lowman boys and Bertha Lowman and get the cases remanded for new and real trials. He prevented at least the legal lynching that was in order, and was the first cause for bringing out the essential savagery of the State toward its colored citizens. Lawyer Frederick would have been lynched just like the Lowmans if circumstances had favored the lynchers. Frederick, as it happened, was not in reach when the lynching party was in action.
was ever held.
This proves again that Negro professional men are worth something to their race, even in the
It seems to me that we have overlooked the bravest man in the whole business, as we have gone about recording and commenting on the revelations of that Aiken lynching, none of which revelations could ever have been made if Frederick had not had the extraordinary guts in the first place to go from Columbia to Alken and risk his head by coming in between the State House and the courthouse, less three people who had Beetle railroaded to conviction by what the New York World correspondent terms as "farecal a trial" as

The Amsterdam News devoted seventeen inches of space to information concerning registration and devoted several articles and editorials to the issues of the campaign.
No one acquainted with the facts of the social life of the colored citizen would argue that the Negro press received as much support and esteem as the Negro Church. Yet, the colored press far outstripped the ministry and the church in stressing the importance of registering and voting.
The possible number of persons whom the church might influence in their political thinking and education is about 30,000. Yet, for some unknown reason, the church refuses to recognize and see it as its duty to urge the Negro to vote in larger numbers.
Even if it could be shown that the preachers have never had anything to do with politics, this would not excuse them from teaching the people their political duty. During an emergency all known and approved rules are suspended by nations and institutions. A great emergency now exists. The Harlem Negro needs political education, and every minister in Harlem should preach at least four sermons per year on the subject.
In the Protestant Episcopal and Catholic churches such a program does not fit in with their church procedure, but in the Methodist and Baptist churches this conception of church duty has ever been held.
trates the value of tillage, of the use of a fertilizer and of careful weeding, are really educative. Many of the pupils have made money by growing potatoes and onions. Useful lessons are given in animal husbandry. The crown of the agricultural work is seen in the native village where, with a splendid navigation, the natives have been taught to produce vegetable for market, with the result that all the market gardening in the town of Umatil is now in the hands of natives. Numbers of natives may be seen going into town late at night and early morning carrying their produce. The Mission has helped the natives to help themselves."
Phi Beta Kappa's Sesqui-Centennial
The 150th anniversary of the founding of the Phi Beta Kappa Fraternity will be celebrated throughout the United States during the week of December 5. This society, which has been useful in encouraging and developing scholarship and scholarly ideals, was founded at the College of William and Mary, Williamburg, Va., in 1776.
651, there is not one such school for, Negroes in the State. The State has spent for white teachers' homes $729,750 and not one cent for Negro teachers' homes. Many Mississippi counties are reported to run their Negro schools for only four months in the year, although in the same counties may be found consolidated rural schools for whites running nine months. For the only colored college in the State, the legislature declined to make an appropriation of $10,000 to a similar sum from a benevolent organization, although the legislature recently appropriated about $5,000,000 for the white colleges of the State.
"The Crisis" announces that the next article in the series, on Negro Common Schools in North Carolina, will be published in the February number. In the Christmas number, besides the article on Schools in Mississippi, there is a detailed account of the funds received by the "Crisis" from the Garland Fund. Other features include: a first prize poem by Ama Bontempa: "Thoughts in a Zoo," the second prize poem, by Countess Cullen's novel "Nigger Heaven": "The Shambles of South Carolina" by Walter White: "Swamp Moccasin," a prize story, by John F. Mathens, and poems by E. Ralph Cheyney and Edna Lou Walton.
was ever held.
This proves again that Negro professional men are worth something to their race, even in the South. There was not a white lawyer in South Carolina, perhaps not in all the South, with courage enough to do what Frederick did. Even the white lawyers who had been appointed by the court in the first instance to "defend" the Lowmans, so as to make their outlawed fight to the outside world—even these white lawyers, who did nothing, were afraid because their mere names had been on the side of the Lowmans—were glad for the judge to apologize for their being "compelled" to be named as lawyers for these victims.

Phi Beta Kappa's Sesqui-Centennial
Phi Beta Kappa's Sesqui-Centennial
The 150th anniversary of the founding of the Phil Bett Kappa Fraternity will be celebrated throughout the United States during the week of December 5. This society, which has been useful in encouraging and developing scholarship and scholarly ideals, was founded at the College of William and Mary, Williamsburg, Va., in 1776. The principal event in the forthcoming sesqui-centennial will be the dedication of the Memorial Building at William and College. Membership in the faculty is conferred in the leading colleges on universities who are among the best scholars, and is for scholarship only.
Today the total membership of Phil Beta Kappa exceeds 50,000. Not less than 5,500 of these people live within a radius of fifty miles of Fifth avenue and Forty-second street. The following Negroes are some of those who have been elected to the fraternity:
Edward A. Bouchet, 1874, deceased; Anna F. Broadnax, 1908; S Joe Brown, 1888; Sterling A. Brown, 1921; Roscoe C. Bruce; John W. Cromwell, 1906; James D. Carr, 1891; deceased; Countee Cullen, 1925; Collins Davis, 1924; William Allison Davis, 1924; William H. Dinklin, 1912; Bertram W. Doyle, 1922.
Also Samuel Herman Drer, 1918; George S. Ellison, 1920; Joseph F. Brundel, 1912; Jesse Fauset, 1906; Rudolph J. Fisher, 1919; Francis Grant, 1917; Herman H. Hostle, 1924; Dorothy M. Hendrickson, 1920; Alphonse Heningburg, 1924; Leslie P. Hill, 1906; Emile T. Holley, 1925; John Hope, 1919.
Also Charles H. Houston, 1915; Pery B. Jackson, 1919; William Jefferson, 1920; Ernest E. Just, 1920; Wily Lane, 1979; David A. Lane, Jr., 1971; Mercer Langton, 1901; Percy Julian, 1920; Alain LeRoy Locke, 1907; Carlyle Clarke, 1925; Mercer Cooke; Mary E. Ling, 1221.
And Rayford W. Logan, 1917; Alexander H. Martin, 1936; Robert N. Mattingly, 1919; Clyde C. McDuffe, 1921; Hortense Mitchell, 1921; John Mitchell, 1921; Irvine C. Anna 1920; Montgomery, 1917; William Pickens, 1994; Melva L. Price, 1925; Francis E. Rivers, 1915; Pan Robleon, 1919; Bobbie B. Scott, 1920; Clarissa M. Scott-Delany, 1923.

Jones showed in the Lorraine, Ark, cases, that a Negro lawyer is invaluable to the ultimate protection of Negro people. And very often these lawyers are doing people which do not come to the light of publicity. Many an humble Negro's property has been saved from economic rape by the honesty and loyalty of some Negro lawyer.
But South Carolina has always produced brave Negroes—as witness the slave insurrectionists and the great Shields Green, an illiterate Negro, who was at Harper's Ferry and, with the possible exception of John Brown, was a slaveholder. Let us all honor Frederick, the hero of Columbia and Alkame S. C.

Ancient Garrote Used in Cuban Execution
HAVANA. Nov. 22.—Quezado Castillo, a murderer, died Thursday in the clutch of the medical garrote. The long lever forced a steel spike into Castillo's vertebrae. According to custom, the body was to remain in the Santiago jail on public view still gripped by the garrote for four hours, when it would be buried. Castillo could not sleep during the night, but his calm was unperturbed as he walked to the execution chapel smoking a cigar. "Gentlemen," exclaimed Castillo, as though putting a toast, "until eternity." The garrote is a hold-over from the Spanish occupation of China. The head and body of its victims are held firmly against the back of the garrote by an iron collar which fits tightly around the neck.
In 1824 Castillo escaped from prison, where he had been confined for murdering his wife. He went home and murdered his sixteen-year-old daughter. It was for this crime that he was executed.
Jefferson Held as Forged Check Passer
Charged with passing forged checks amounting to $2,500, Samuel Jefferson, 18, 414 Lenox avenue was held in $2,500 bail for special sessions.
Jacob Raphail, white, who operates a grocery store at 1751 Third avenue, complained that he had cashed the two checks bearing the name of Sam Brooklin on November 5. The checks were returned by the bank as being forged.
Upon the grocer's complaint, Detectives Salter and Browne of the East 104th street station arrested Jefferson on the corner of 100th street and Third avenue. He was arraigned before Magistrate Flood in the Harlem court on Nov. 18.
Willis Hanks, age 16, won the physical fitness contest held under the auspices of the Citizens' Forum and was awarded a gold medal. The contest was held at Public School No. 126, which is the meeting place of the Citizens' Forum. When asked how he accounted for his having won the prize, "Hanks," as he is affectionately called, replied that he has been an active member of the West 155th Street Branch of the Y. M. C. A. for a number of years.
Suggestions
Cut four hard-boiled eggs in halves, crosswise; remove yolks, mash and add two tablespoons grated cheese, one teaspoon vinegar, one-fourth teaspoon mustard, salt and cayenne to taste. Add enough melted butter to make mixture of right consistency to shape into small balls of original yolks. Refill whites. Arrange on a serving dish, pour over one cup white sauce, cover and reheat.
Eccalloped Cabbage with Cheese.
One small head cabbage, two cups grated cheese, one and one-half cups medium white sauce, one-half to three-quarter cup bread crumbs. Roll the cabbage. Into a greased baking dish put a layer alternately of cabbage and cheese, then a layer of white sauce, until ingredients are used. Cover with crumbs, buttered, and bake 20 minutes in a moderate oven until crumbs are browned.
Grapefruit and Celery Salad.
Cut medium sized grapefruit in fourths, lengthwise. Remove pully, and add to it as much finely cut celery as possible and celery mixture, mask with mayonnaise dressing and garnish with celery tips and canned pimontes cut in strips.
Tunafish Sandwiches.
Two slices buttered toast, mayonnaise, lettuce, lemon juice, tunafish, crisp bacon, salt and pepper.
Toast and butter two slices of bread for each sandwich. Spread with mayonnaise and lay on a crisp lettuce leaf, a layer of seasoned tunafish and a second lettuce leaf and a slice of crisp bacon. Cover with second slice of toast and serve with strips of pickle as a garnish.
Crab and Tomato Salad.
Wipe and skin six large, firm tomatoes and remove the stem end and some of the pulp and seeds. Chop the cooked meat of one crank, mix with removed pulp, season to taste and fill the tomato shells with mixture. Chill for several hours. Place on crisp lettuce leaves and serve with a tablespoon of mayonnaise dressing on each tomato.
Corn Fritters
Two cups corn, one teaspoon salt, one-eighth teaspoon pepper, one egg, one teaspoon butter, one-half cup milk, two cups flour, one teaspoon baking powder, one egg, add salt, pepper, well beaten egg, butter, milk, flour and baking powder. Fry in deep fat until golden brown.
NEWYORKFALLS BEFORE ORANGE
Sustaining their first defeat in six years, the strong A. S. C. team of New York went down to defeat before the strong Orange A. C. last Sunday, the final score being 26-0.
It seemed as though the New York boys could not get starred against the picked stars of the East composing the Orange team and before many minutes of play in the first quarter Orange scored on down. They also scored in the second and last quarters on the fighting "A's," but during the last few minutes of play the New Yorkers displayed a little of the brilliance which has won so many names for them.
In that quarter Jackson got two passes working for repeated gains, but it was too late to start a rally, and the final whistle blew with the ball in the "A's" possession at midfield.
Gilmer, replacing Bolden in the first half, not in a couple of nice plays, as did Fuller. Ammons and Jackson. The New Yorkers' line failed to hold the plunging Orangemen, their backs ploughing through for consistent gains at will. Forward passes by the Orange team proved the undoing of the New Yorkers. The line-up:

JACK McVEY'S FINE SHOWING
Newark boxing fans saw Jack Moyes, the coached wetterweight, exhibit his boxing ability last week at the Laurel Garden Arena in his twelve-round match with Jack Hood, the clever Englishman, and Moyes earned the decision in a slashing fight before the largest crowd that ever jammed the arena. It was estimated that 7,000 persons witnessed the contest. Long before the final bout started, Building Inspectors ordered Promoter Laddie Kusy to close his box office. The entrance to the hall was jammed with persons who held pasteboards, but many had their money returned. It was estimated that 1,000 fans were turned away.
Mevey Wins nine rounds. Mevey earned the second in competition a draw, the first went to Hood, while from the third round on, a round in which Mevey scored a nine-count knockdown over the Englishman, until the eighth, all in Mevey's favor. The Englishman won the ninth, tenth and eleventh, but Mevey was again at his best in the final round. The coolled boy was a wizard in this fight, and Newarkers saw Mevey fight his best. He forced fight for nine of the show up in the tenth rounds, but he slowed in the tenth. The Hood opened his left eye, which was injured before he entered the ring. Mevey scored the cleaner punches, was the aggressor and boxed cleverly. The first two rounds saw both boxing cleverly, feeling each other out. But before the second ended both were whaling away.
McVey got down to his task in the third and, ripping a left hook to the stomach and a right cross to the jaw, he weakened Hood, who swayed up. McVey's right-hand punch just behind the car dropped the Englishman in the third for a nine count. He got up wobbling and McVey was forced to chase him.
From then on, McVey used both hands effectively, using a two-handed attack to the wind that slowed up the Englishman and at times made him appear like a preliminary boy. The punch that knocked Hood down seemed to take lots of "stance" out of him and he didn't show the form that whipped Paul Doyle three weeks ago until the ninth, when, with a long left hand, he cuffed McVey often in the face. Hood stuck plenty of lefts on McVey's left eye and wound open his first clever boxing and captured the tenth and eleventh rounds by wide margins, but McVey cut loose in the twelfth round and belted Hood until he sought cover or danced around.
Hood Takes Forcit
It was announced after the bout that Hood took McVey's forfeit. Both agreed to weigh in at 149 pounds and neither made the weight. Hood scaled in. McVey took the Broderbjb Hood's pilot, demanded the money or he wouldn't permit his charge to fight. So Broderbjb got it.
If You Should Scorch It!

STOKES COAL COMPANY, Inc.
FIFTH AVENUE AND 142D STREET
It was alleged that the defendants and one Edward Smith robbed Urith McCoy, 19 West 115th street of $15 on Tuesday, June 15, of this year. Smith will be tried later for the same offense.
It is said the men met McCoy at 126th street and Lenox avenue and got into conversation with him concerning the ease with which painters could secure work in New York. It is claimed that Wright then offered to take the group to see some fine girls whom he knew if the men had any money. In this way they learned that McCoy had a watch, and they induced him to pawn this watch with Joseph Roth & Sons, pawnbrokers, at Lenox avenue, near 126th street. The pawnbroker gave McCoy $15 on the watch. It is this sum that the defendants are alleged to have stolen.
The defendants claim that they won the money from McCoy in an honest 'crap game' conducted on the street game of 145th street and Fifth avenue, that same morning.
A pair of dice was found on the person of Douglas Jefferson. The dice, however, showed that one had two pairs of fours and the other had two pairs of threes.
The State alleged that the money was snatched by Jefferson, who divided with Wright, giving the latter $7. Ten dollars of the money was found in the pocket of Jefferson and in the back pocket of Officer Berschmidt of the Sixteenth Police Precinct made the arrest when his suspicions were aroused because the men fled from the corner when he approached it.
Said to Have Taught White Boys to Steal
Believed by the police to have taught white youths to steal after blackening their faces to make them appear as colored boys, George Jordan, 29, a colored janitor at 185 Prospect Avenue, near 175th street, was arraigned last week in West Parks Court on charge of receiving stolen property. Jordan was arrested. Detectives Paula Bauer and Mark of the Bathgate station, following an investigation into the actions of numerous youths frequenting his cellar apartment.
The specific charge is based upon the finding of a bag alleged to have been stolen from Mrs. Anna Welssberg, white, 2114 Clinton avenue, on October 30, which contained $20. The detectives say they learned of Jordan's actions, which caused them to describe him as a Fagin, when he was implicated by Frank Di Isoria, 14 white, 2144 Clinton avenue, convicted recently in Children's Court. Di Isorio was sent away for an indefinite term to the Catholic Protectory by Justice Hoyt for the theft of Mrs. Welssberg's property.
Woman Gets Thirty-Day Sentence for Intoxication
A tearful plea that she be given "one more chance" availed Sadie Brown, thirty-four, 224 West 135th street, nothing when she was found guilty by Magistrate McQuade, in Washington Heights Court last week, of public intoxication.
"Judge, I just want one more chance," she pleaded. "I will never get drunk again. I swear I won't."
Magistrate McQuade glanced at Mrs. Brown's record, which showed she had been found guilty by Magistrate Vitale in a similar chance on two occasions.
"This is what you told Magistrate Vitale and he let you off with a suspended sentence both times." Magistrate McQuade said. "I will give you a chance after you have served thirty days in the Workhouse."
HOLDING REVIVAL SERVICES
Revival services are being held nightly under the auspices of the American Bible Training School, at No. 31 St. East 125th street. The Rev John C. Cordes, formerly the pastor, is conducting the meetings, hopes to organize a Baptist church at this conclusion.
Both men have long records. Wright was convicted of felonies in the following years: 1920, 1921 and 1924.
Jefferson's criminal record started in 1913. At intervals of from two to three years he has been subsequently convicted of felonies. The defendants were represented by Attorney Louis A. Lavelle.

Thanksgiving
AGAIN we are on the eve of Thanksgiving, a day set apart by proclamation for the giving of thanks. To whom what, and for what reasons should we give thanks? Every man must decide these things for himself. The answer must come from his own heart.
IN SONG, one man said that he would give thanks unto the Lord for His goodness and because he believed His mercy would endure forever. Parrot-like, lions will repeat that song tomorrow without giving a thought to its significance, and without asking themselves if they really believe what they say, a miss the whole significance of the day.
APPROACH Thanksgiving with an open mind. Interrogate yours. Think of your parents, relatives and friends, and of your God. Most like you will find many, many things in which you should give thanks.
The Baumes Law
A SPIRITED ATTACK is now being made against the Baumes Crime Law enacted last year, which requires Judge to sentence to life imprisonment any person convicted of a felony for a fourth time. It is highly significant that the attack is being led by judges themselves and by district attorneys—the two classes of public officials whose sworn duty it is to uphold the law and protect the public from convicted criminals.
THE MOVE to modify the law will probably be a successful one. But what of the public? Does it want the law modified? Has it raised any objection against it? Would it like to see chronic offenders committed to prison for life. And, are four convictions of felons sufficient to stamp a man as a criminal?

ON THESE POINTS no inquiry what-
Carnegie Hall was, as usual, packed on Friday evening. November 19, to welcome Roland Hayes. He was greeted with more than usual enthusiasm. It was a memorable event. The cause is more interesting than the event. The world is not seeking mostly the perfect voice, but a great musical individuality manifested through a voice developed to exert a strong emotional quality. The most natural manner possible. The atmosphere and tone color which he imparts to his singing are of such remarkable quality that one feels his interpretation must of necessity be a thing of genius, unapproachable by other contemporary singers.

ever seems to have been made and none will be made so long as there is, ostensibly, so much corruption in New York Courts. The public be damned, say many judges and district attorneys.
BEFORE the Baumes Laws went into effect, it was an everyday occurrence for district attorneys to permit persons accused of murder in the first degree to plead guilty to manslaughter; persons accused of robbery and burglary in the first degree to plead guilty to lesser crimes and so on down the line. Sentences would then be passed on the criminal, not in proportion to the enormity of the crime, but upon the plea recommended by the district attorney and accepted by the Court.
THERE were two evil effects which resulted from such a procedure. One is that it tended to corrupt the courts and the other is that it soon released old offenders against the law from prison to resume a career of crime.
TAKE, for an instance, the case of Frank Redding, whose sentence of eighteen months in Sing Sing was changed to one for life. Redding was convicted of burglary in 1910, and in 1924, 1925 and a few weeks ago he was convicted of stealing taxicabs. We admit that a life sentence in prison is rather severe for stealing taxicabs; but what guarantee have we that Redding, if the eighteen months' sentence had been permitted to stand, would not revert to burglary or murder when he is again released. The Baumes Law would place such a man where his criminal tendencies may do the least harm to those who abide by the law.
IN TIME, more scientific and effective means will be found to deal with the criminal element of the population than the Baumes Laws, but for the time being we are not opposed to having persons of pronounced criminal tendencies committed to prison for life, even if, in a few particular cases, that punishment is too severe.
BECAUSE nine men have received sentences of imprisonment varying from four to twenty years for participating in a Georgia lynching, is not necessarily, proof that this State has decided to rid itself of mob rule. The man lynched was white.

"Nigger Heaven"--A Review of the Reviewers
THE review of "Nigger Heaven," which appeared under my name in The Amsterdam News for September 1, seems to have released the rush of Negro writers and set the pace for the expressions of critical (and other) condemnation of that book which it had prophetically described as a "breach of the peace." It has also provoked Mr. Van Vechten's Negro friends to fly to his relief—which is as it should be.
I should have been genuinely surprised if my own estimate of the book had proved to be the only estimate, and I set out now to summarize the critical output of its friends and foes without feeling any special animus against the former or any special friendship for the latter. I shall try, at any rate, not to misrepresent, not to falsify. My main motive is to shed some light on the character and quality of the book and pseudocritical comments on the book and to assess their merit in the light of reason and the sociologic background on which alone literature and literary judgments must rest their claims to validity.
But I must make it clear at the outset—in the face of much fog that has been raised—that in my review I did not base my unavailble opinion of "Nigger Heaven" on the popular ground that it doesn't present the Negro in a favorable light. I have always repudiated that point of view, and I do so now. It is no part of the critic's right to dictate to the creative artist what aspects of life he should select for presentation.
When I read the "Sixth Suttre of Juvenal I rest my critical opinion of its literary merits on its artistic excellence, as form, and on its sociologic truth, or lack of it; and this must be buttressed by my own independent knowledge of the state of Roman society when Juvenal penned his induction of it.
I condemned Van Vechten's book as a poor specimen of literary craftsmanship, and on the further ground that it is a viciously false picture of the life which he pretends to depict. Had its characters been more than mere lay-figures, lacking the breath of life, I should have praised it for that—no matter how it might have "shown up" Harlem Negro society. And, indeed, so far as it did that very thing—in spots—I gave it a modicum of compensating commendation.
We come now to the summary of the opinions which it evoked. Some of these opinions proceeded from white writers and appeared exclusively in the white press. These I shall pass over—for obvious reasons. But I may consider two by way of examples. Mr. Herywood Brun has guaranteed the artists, literary and sociological works of the book But for Mr. Brun is "to be" a critic. His naive, emotional reactions have not yet given any recognized critical value to his pontifical pronouncements and, except as evidences of friendship, or backscratching, they remain critically out of court. Then there is Mr. Harry Hansen's writing in the New York Forl. His validation of Van Vechten's book was, however, a curious contradiction in terms. He admits near the end of his review that he himself is unacquainted with New Harlem the character of the book, he states that, "after reading Carl Van Vechten one has the impression that other writers have merely scratched the surface"—and descends upon its "scientific" accuracy.
Now, it must be obvious that the one statement cancels the other. For if he doesn't know the locality, the type, the setting and the atmosphere which the book portrays, he cannot know whether that portrayal is accurate or not. The implications are disastrous. I cannot imagine Van Weyck Brooks, Ernest Boyd or H. L. Mencken thus sinning against their critical lights, and so lightly imperiling their critical reputations. The explanation which suggests itself is that, critically, one measure is used for white men's work dealing with white men and another for any man's work dealing with Negroes; these critical cases not above the surrendering themselves to the options of a cult" and entrenching something bisarre and "exotic" just because it falls in with the present ephemeral jazz idea of what "the Negro" is. That idea, as I have shown elsewhere, is largely a conventionalized expression of their own inner need for a new evocation and argues. as Spencer somewhere shows, the final exhaustion of the artistic impulse within the white race.
Before we can properly consider the colored critics of the book it is necessary to note Miss Ortonington's furious release on Nixler Heaven for which I am grateful. Oldfashioned trying unsuccessfully for two weeks to find it in New York. As was to be expected, Miss

Owington sings soprano to the charming tenor and baritone in her cultural corner, concerning whom I will speak further on. She seems to find it a hard job, though. In reality, what she does is to furnish the materials for one of the strongest indictments against the book.
"How good this picture is—I for all, for you, tells us—and by 'good' it is clear that she means accurate. But that puts her out of court as a validator on the soctolic side.
in the these above none ad a unit, partic cism yoke. an express book draws most intention.
Her opening paragraph is apologetic. "The colored reader," she begins, "who is not familiar with Van Vechen's other novels may think that in Nigger Heaven" the colored man is given a rotten deal. Now, since ninety-nine per cent of the probable colored readers of the book are presumptively "not familiar with Van Vechen's other novels." Miss Ovington's words suggest and imply that the book, as read, produces the impression, as Negro reader, mind that "the colored man is given a rotten deal in its pages. This view is hers—not mine. But that is not the worst. The concluding words of the sentence quoted above are these: "so largely is the book concerned with the Negro's sensual life" She goes on to cite the very books to which I had directed attention in my review of September 1 and she insists that they are even more devoted to the sensual life than this one is.
Thus, she established for the author a definite addiction to the painting of "sensual life," to dirt and disrepute. Again the indictment is hers, not mine; I had referred to them only for a comparison of literary form. And, as if that were not dammatory unmovable in the characters and atmosphere of the book without seeming to be aware of how much she is admitting.
"This novelist," she says, "loves the tale that seems unreal and impossible, repurgant to common sense," and she describes the author as "this modernist who likes to draw the impossible." Dear me, begins to look at the author's loosely oozing out between the clenched fingers of his amiable friend. One might well ask Providence to save him from such friends, who essay literary criticism without mental discipline enough to maintain consistency. For Miss Orington "boosts" the book, and in her closing sentence she advises us to "look in on the face" of Nigger Johnson, who reminds us of Mr. James Weldon Johnson's closing sentence in which he also recommends that we read "Nigger Heaven."
Miss Ovington's critique is "raw" work in a double sense. She writes as if she had been conscripted into a species or defensive warfare, which has neither aptitude nor inclination.
Mr. James Weldon Johnson in Opportunity Magazine for October flies to the defence of his friend's imperiled prestige with a vigor which dispenses with both discretion and the facts. With the disaffairing dogmatism of a Brahmin pundit he coolly assures us that "the story comprehends nearly every phase of life in the Negro metropolis". To which one may reply in the words of the sainted Brann: Excuse French Freewoman. If it were true, it would be interesting — and unique. In the very last sentence of his duty-to-a-friend, Mr. Johnson writes: "This reviewer would suggest reading the book before discussing it." It could be wished that he had taken his own advice more seriously. For one who reads the book in any other than the mood of a propagandist or a back-scratcher must see that, it doesn't even touch such vital and obtrusive "phases of life in the Negro metropolis" as the churches and their influence, politics, the labor movement, the lodges and fraternalism, economic penetration by whites, the lodger evil prostitution, organized superstition, this kind of misguidedness that these things should be in such a novel, but their absence proves that the Brahmin's ponderous dogmatism was not dictated by anything remotely related to the truth.
In the same paragraph he says that "Mr. Van Vechten is the only white novelist I can now think of who has not viewed the Negro as a type, who has not treated the race as a unit, either good or bad." This is exasperating—from a professional literate. Surely, one need not know as much as Macauley's proverbial schoolboy to have read Mark Twain. Joseph Conrad, or more recently, Mrs. Millin. T. S. Stribling, H. A. Sands, Certrude Sanborn and Panker, to mention But, perhaps Johnson doesn't read much about these lines. "Shands" "White and Black," Miss Sanborn's "Velled Artistats," Stribling's "Birthright" and Mrs. Millin's "God's Stepenchildren" have all appeared with
LETTERS
in the last four years. Three of these stand artistically miles above "Nigger Heaven," and in none of them is the Negro "viewed as a type" or "treated as a unit, either good or bad." Thus, partisanship and literary criticism are seen again to be bad yoke-mates.
And before passing on to other expressions of opinion on the book it may be worth while to draw attention to the fact that most of the dubious commendation of "Nigger Heaven" comes from a certain group of "guardians of the gate," which may explain some things. And, as to the critical quality of this food, the fancious nature of the action on the avenue sentimentalities, let it be borne in mind that not one of these "guardians of the gate" has ever known enough of either literary art or criticism to recognize unadied any product of genius from their own race, or any other, when they first met it face to face.
From Dunbar to Countee Cullen, from James Edwin Campbell to Claude Mckay, Hughes and Toomer—good, bad or indifferent—every Negro of real or alleged merit in literature or any other art has to be first pointed out by white critical opinion before they could say bury upon the trail. This is a shameful fact (and I challenge them to maintain any denial of it) which is symptomatic of the critical worthlessness of these "guardians of the gate" who are, indeed, so conscious of their own utter incompetence in this respect that they gladly resign the risks of ordination on the hands of a white spinster who rodders their group.
To return to Mr. Johnson for a moment. After Miss Orington's characterization of "Nigerian Heaven" as "so largely concerned with the Negro's sensual life" aud of its author as largely addicted to dirt—characterizations exactly coinciding with those made by writers in the New York Age, New York News, Chicago Defender, Pittsburgh Courier and Heeble Jebeles—it is with a sense of shock that one reads Mr. Johnson's description of the same book as "a scheme for the interpretation of Negro life in America that opens up a new world for colored writers."
And, curiously enough, he is the only one writing on the book who offers an explicit defence of its title. On this matter it must be remembered that Van Vechten went out of his way to introduce one single footnote in which he expressly tells his readers that, while the word "nigger" is often used among Nerges, it is by them considered the deadliest insult when used by a white man. Consequently, Van Vechten knew just what he was doing when he used the title—and he took pains to serve notice on the Negro boots that he knew. So that Mr. Johnson's labored defence of the title is—sort of queer. It was given to understand that Mr. Johnson was intended to enter the缸 in defence of his friend's book with a critical rejoinder to my review of September 1, but his appearance on the sand has been so long delayed that I am compelled to forego the pleasure of dealing with it—in the present summary.
In the New York Age of September 4, under the caption "A Novel With a Moral," there appeared an anonymous review of Van Vechen's book in the form of an editorial. Now, it is not customary to present book reviews, but reviews with a well-detailed weekly, was doubtless, aware of this. We are, therefore, driven to conclude that the authority behind the opinions expressed wished, for some unknown reason, to claim the protection of anonymity—to which, of course, he is entitled. But, it gives one furiously to think" as the French phrase it. Oddly enough, this Mysteriousous review compares with the same admission and defence with which Miss Ortington opens. "The average reader of 'Niger Heaven'
is apt to murmur disgustedly "rotten!" as he reaches the final chapter. He tells us: and, like Miss Ovington, he admits that "it is largely devoted to the delineation of the vicious and degenerate phases of night life in Harlem. (Page Mr. Johnson!) Most of the leading characters are frankly immoral in their sexual relations," which is but the plain and simple truth. But what a lurid light it casts on the mental processes of those who pretend to admire the book as comprehending "nearly every phase of life in Negro metropolis" and as furnishing "a scheme for the interpretation of Negro life in America that opens up a new world for colored writers."
The anonymous writer tells us further that Van Vechten "has painted with deft touch the pursuit of sensuality as the chief end of life of the queer characters whom he puts in his books. It was natural that, in seeking to depict a 'Nigger Heaven' he should people it with the same sort of abnormal characters

Sauerkraut — An Excellent Food
IN CERTAIN parts of France and in large portions of Germany where sauerkraut is a popular food, the people live to a ripe old age. There is a reason. The German School of Physicians is now advising people to eat more of this common and lowly article of diet. It has been noticed that among the people who frequently take this form of food, that the healing qualities of their blood is, exceptionally high. Septic wounds heal quickly and easily. It is believed that this acid food has some influence in the healing process.
travagant types, with their perverse characteristics emphasized by painting in high colors."
But the book, in this writer's opinion, is valuable because of its moral—an opinion for which I can have some sympathy, although I cannot share it. This review was, on the whole, well written; certainly, it was much better than the half-column article in the New York News of the same date, which condemned the book mainly on the score of its title, with a passing reference to outraged hospitality.
The "comic strip" was furnished by The Tattler, which printed Miss Orington's review with a host of typographic absurdities. We were treated to the "workings of rare prejudice." introduced to "Mary Love, a literate," and to "sycophants who drink and shout" and were finally informed that "His hero is no puppet, but a young man suffering from bitter disappointment."
The Boston Guardian outdid itself in demonstrating that the English language is an Eleusinian mystery to some Negroes who speak it more or less. I have room for only a few samples from its "review" of October 2.
"The characters are caricatured in lifelike simplicity, demonstrating the author's intimate association and inescapable observation of Harlem's Negro, keeping the treatise within the bounds of propriety.
"The delicacy of the noxious cabaret with jazz acountrements revealed an amazing finesse never attempted before by any author of fiction.
"An acute piece of a few chapters, when Rudolph (sic.) was being depicted a harrowing episode would happen and, with sudden abandon, the author obscured Rudolph into a realm of deliberate doubt."
"Books, furnishings and decorations were descriptively narrated with a conception of ability and judgment clearly demonstrating the author's intimacy of his surroundings". ::::
The scheme of rhetoric, grammar and punctuation belongs to Mr. Trotter, the Guardian's editor, a learned graduate of Harvard. What he meant to say I have not yet been able to ascertain, except that in his closing sentence he, too, advises us to read "Nigger Heaven."
The Walt The Defender and Hariie Bubbler of Chicago and the Pittsburgh Courier all carried critical comments of a quality higher than the average quality of the New York newspapers. Unfortunately, I haven't a copy of The Defender's review, but I can recall its pungency and thoroughness.
On October 2 Heeble Joeebles, under the caption "Nigger Heaven" Displuses Critics, declared that "no colored reviewer, so far has been able to swallow the work" as a whole. That was before Mr. James Weldon Johnson had written for Opportunity, H. J.'s article was an earlier summary of critical opinions—without assessing their value. To it I am indebted for valuable information concerning reviews from the Washington Tribune, from Bibb of The Whip, and a letter from Charles S. Johnson, editor of Opportunity, to Van Vechen, which last, being originally a private communication. I shall pass over—at present.
Mr. Webber, in the Courier, drew attention to the fact that I had for many years been prophesying exactly what happened, viz.: that if Negro writers continued to ignore the masses of human material available in Harlem and elsewhere, some white writer would come along and unilate the details of which Negroes might not approve.
Mr. Jones of The Defender remarked that "Nigger Heaven' easily takes its place at the bottom of the list. It is drilled, pure and simple . . . 286 pages of lurid details about women's undergarments . . . alshy scenes in Harlem cabarets . . . protesque character names . . . impossible dialect . . . and general confusion."
Mr. Bibb improved the opportunity to hurl some caustic content at Harlem's beribboned words which were well-described. The paragraphs devoted to this designation were classic and ought to be preserved.
The comments of The Courier in sheer quantity and persistence, surpassed those of every other newspaper. On September
Sauerkraut is also used for its help as an intestinal cleanser. There is lactic acid in the chemical composition of sauerkraut and this may have some influence on the bacteria in the intestines. Sauerkraut has been found to be excellent for intestinal worms. It should be eaten without cooking. Children are frequently attacked with intestinal worms which get into the system by the eating of vegetables, especially lettuce which has been planted and grown in manure. Sometimes these vegetables are not thoroughly washed and eggs of the worm are left clinging to them. When eaten, eggs do into the intestines and there develop into worms. If sauerkraut is eaten more frequently, especially by children, the intestinal worms will be removed.
Sauerkraut is made from cabbage, covered with an acid liquid. This preserves the vitamins A, B, C and D which cabbage contains and makes it an excellent food for divalized and debilitated individuals who need large amounts of these vitamins. Sauerkraut which you catch cold easily, who are inclined to develop pulmonary infections, should eat sauerkraut every day or at least three days of the week. It is rich in mineral contents so necessary for demineralized people and who so need large amounts of vitaines.
Sauerkraut should be eaten raw because cooking weakens the activity of the vitamins in the cabbage. The development is the growth of children. Sauerkraut therefore, has been found to be excellent as a food for children.
4 appeared the letter of Charles S. Johnson, already referred to on September 11 Harry B. Webber's formal review was presented, taking much the same ground that I had taken in The Amsterdam News. Along with it appeared a critique by Merle Sandam, a young Jew, who argued far above the critical level of the Jew's which was seemingly inserted in way of redressing the balance
On November's Mr. Floyd Cavin took his firing at Van Vechen and made the same score as to V. V. inclinations to fldth that Miss Ovington did. His closing sentence was worth remembering: "Recall who in high places commended the book and you will recall who is responsible for your world's greatest Nengo city being known as "Niger Heaven." Mr. George S. Schyler in the same issue found the book to be "good reporting about a corp devoted largely to reporting the activities of (Negroes) in the higher and lower grats of the underworld of the black city, as well as the unities and aspirations of the social 'arrivers.'"
Taken altogether, the collective reactions to Van Vechter's book were indicative of a keen appreciation of the relation which literature bears to life; for even those who took the wrong turning on the road to knowledge were found resting their commendations and demations upon this relationship. This outburst of critical may possibly induce Nesper O'Connor and white writers to recognize the existence of a critical leaven at the core of the unbaked cake of "The Negro Renadance."
I doubt that such fellows as Van Vechten ever suspected the existence of anything more in it than the monkeyfied reflection of themselves—which is what the beribboned boys of "The Harlem School" mostly amount to at present. Within the next ten years, to change the figure, the froth will be blown off the tastard and we will lift to our lips the real beer of literature with life in it, with snap and tang and color, brewed by Negro writers freed from the leading-stress of Greenwich Village stressors who, like Van Vechten, mistake near-beer for the genuine lager.
