MAN LEAVES NOTE SAYING HE HAS COMMITTED SUICIDE
Told Landlord He Would Be Gone for a Week No Record of His Whereabouts
"I have killed myself. I are out of work, and life is no pleasure to me. My name is W. A. H.**
On the strength of this note, issued in the offices of William A. Hickey, a roomer at 191 First 19th street, who is now missing since April, the police are seeking light on his disappearance.
On the day that Hickey left his room, he told his landlord, Mrs. Elsie Frank, to look after his belongings, and that he would return in a week's time. When the man failed to return, Mrs. Frank searched his room, and after finding the suicide note notified the Missing Persons Bureau, and Detective Waterhouse was assigned to the east Waterhouse reports that the morgues or hospitals have registered no one of Hickey's description. Hickey is reported to have been married, but is thought to have been estranged from his wife, whose name is believed to be either Dotty or Dorothy. He was a veteran in the World War and formerly lived at 778伦 Avenue, 289 Alexander avenue and 548 East 16th street, it is said. Possible relatives and friends are being sought in the Bronx by the police.

Miss Scott had been in the employ of Mrs. Kosak for six weeks when the alleged larceny took place.

After discovery of the forgery the police were notified, and Harris was asked to find the man who gave him the check. Accompanied by Detective M. O'Connor of the 14th Squad, Harris went out on the street Thursday and pointed out Turner as being the man.
Turner told Magistrate Silberman that he not only did not forge the check, but could not, as he could neither read or write. The magistrate gave it as his opinion that Turner had been arrested as a stranger on the public highway and that, aside from his being unable to read or write, he could find no evidence upon which to hold him. Turner was discharged.

REMAINS OF DR. CAFFEY TAKEN BACK TO ALA. FOR INTERMENT
Harlem Retired Physician Died of Heart Failure Last Wednesday Before Medical Aid Could Be Given Meharry Graduate
Funeral services over the remains of Dr. Frank C. Caffey, who died suddenly of heart trouble at his residence last Wednesday morning, were held there Saturday evening, with the Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, officiating. Later the same day the long journey was begun with the body to Dr. Caffey's former home, Montgomery, Ma. In the party were the widow, Mrs. Dickie Terry; Frank C., Jr., and Dr. K. H. Terry.
Dr. C. E. Terry, of Denver, Colo., remained to take charge of the family's affairs until it returns.
Honorary pall bearers were: M. C. Brown, Mr. Kelsay, Mr. Hood, Fred R. Moore, Dr. H. Bluns Dismond, Dr. A. L. McGhee, George E. Haynes, Dr. Paul A. Collins, Dr. Gustave Henderson, Atty. J. Donglass Watmore, Atty. William Jones, Thomas Hope, William Wortham and Dr. A. N. Grant.
The morning of his death Dr. Caffey got up as usual and went down stairs to look after the general affairs of his home. He returned in about an hour and, in great distress, called Mrs. Caffey to his bedroom.
At the time Mrs. Tom Hope of Camden, N. J., the Misses Alice and Ruth Harris, teachers in the Washington, D. C., schools, house guests, and Frank Caffey Jr. were in the home and gave what old they could. Someone ran for a doctor, but before one could arrive the end game.
Dr. Caffey, who attended Livingstone College, Sallisbury, N. C., was a graduate in medicine and pharmacy of Meharry Medical College. He practiced for years in Montgomery, Ala. About eight years ago he had his wife bring Frank Caffey Jr., their only living child, to New York City, where she began to make investments for the family. He followed two years later after retiring from practice. Dr. Caffey's investments in and around New York City are quite extensive to say nothing of investments in Montgomery, Ala.
He was a Republican, and soon became captain of his district. He was a member of several secret orders. Dr. Caffey was a great athletic expert and trained and conditioned many of the stars in sports. He was medical expert for Jack Johnson's camp. Seal Rock House, Ocean Beach, near San Francisco, Cal., and Rick's Quarters, Reno, Nev.

Mixed Pair File Marriage Notice
Daughter of Brockton, Mass., White Man to Have Inheritance Cut Off
POSTON. April 25.—Elijah Mav Alexander, giving age 26, color white, and address as 59 Dammond street, Roxbury, last week filed marriage intentions with Ambrose Gomes Rodreques, 36. 225 Grove street, Brockton, who said he was colored and a Cape Verde Islander.
According to Rodreques, the marriage cannot take place at once because of a law of their church, the Holy Christian Church of the Holy Apostolie titin, and the date will be set by Bishop Harris of Boston, whereupon there will be a suitable ceremony in Brockton.
Miss Alexander is the daughter of John P. Alexander of 254 North Warren street, Brockton, who two years ago filed court action asking for an injunction against Bishop Harris and others to restrain them from inducing the girl to attend Holy Jumper services.
Mr. Alexander refused to talk about his daughter's marriage, saying he had cut her off and expects to have nothing more to do with her.
Here From Barbadoes to Give Lecture Series
Hon. Christopher Braithwaite, M. C. P., of the Island of Barbadoes, arrived here on the S. S. Vestree on Friday, to deliver a series of lectures under the auspices of St. Ambrose Community Church, the Rev. J. Elliot Durant, pastor. A large crowd welcomed Mr. Braithwaite on his arrival at the dock, among which was a delegation from the Sons and Daughters of Barbardoes, C. E. Carter, chairman. Mr. Braithwaite is the only Negro ever elected to the Assembly of Barbadoes who came from the ranks and hundreds of Barbadians here are proud of his achievement.
Aged State Department Doorkeeper Reappointed
WASHINGTON, April 25. Eddie Savoy, the venerable messenger who has been stationed at the door of American Secretaries of State since 1869, was retained Saturday to serve two more years. Savoy long ago reached the age of retirement as a government employee, Mr. Kellogg. In fact, has twice extended his retirement time because he is regarded in a large sense indispensable as the doorkeeper at the Secretary's office.
at the funeral services were: Mr. and Mrs. Hahn, Miss Sarah Schuyler Butler, leader of Republican Women of State and sister of Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler and Mrs. George S. Williams of National Republican Commi. ee. Telegrams were received from all over the country and floral offerings were numerous.
SENTENCED FOR PART IN $8,000 GOWN ROBBERY IN BOSTON
Prisoner, Said to Have Served Time in Sing Sing, Gets From 7 to 20 Years—Loot Recovered
BOSTON. April 25.—Walter Hucles, of New York City, was sentenced to State Prison for seven to twenty years, after he pleaded guilty in Suffolk Superior Court last Monday to the theft of $8,000 in gowns from the Patten Hat and Gown Shop, 472 Boylston street, on February 1. His previous record showed that he had served time in Sing Sing.
Hucles had been confined in Charles street jail ever since he was arrested and brought back by Officers Sheehan and Adair from Washington, D. C., shortly after the robbery. Charles Sampson, confederate of the sentenced man, has not been apprehended.
The two men came to Boston on the night of Feb. 1, and hired a room in Roxbury, according to the story told Judge Fossdick by H. McDonnell, assistant district attorney, and James Sheehan, special officer. They took a stroll along Boyleston street and decided upon the hat and gown shop for their operations. That evening they secured two trunks from their landlady and hired George Benders, a taxi driver, to haul them to Boyleston street, where the robbery was committed. Within less than twenty-four hours after the robbery all but a few dresses of the loot were in New York and Washington, where the $8,000 in gowns and dresses were found on "fences" by policemen. A number of New York women found at the place where the goods were discovered were arrested and sentenced for their share in the crime. George Benders, driver of the car, has since pleaded guilty to being an accessory after the fact, but his case has not been disposed of. He is now out on ball. Hucle's address was found to be in Washington and the officers went to the capital, where he was arrested. In his room there, $8,000 in gowns were found, but none from Boston. They were later claimed by New York policemen.
CHRISTIAN RELIGION CALLED HANDICAP TO NEGRO IN DEBATE
V. F. Calverton, Editor of Modern Quarterly, and Professor Kelly Miller Open Series of Discussion in Community Church
Does Orthodox Christianity Handicap Negro Progress? This was the subject of a debate of vital interest between V. F. Calverton, white, of the affirmative, editor of The Modern Quarterly and author of "The Newer Spirit" and "Sex Expression in Literature," and Professor Kelly Miller, of the negative, famous author, lecturer and dean of Howard University, Washington, D. C., before a representative audience at the Community Church, Thirty-fourth street and Park avenue, Sunday, at 3:30 p.m., under the auspices of the Messenger Magazine.
Abraham Harris, one of the Messenger editors, inaugurated this, the beginning of a series of debates, for the purpose of bringing to public attention, through prominent speakers, the various labor, social and economic questions concerning the Negro.
Charles Johnson, editor of Opportunity Magazine, was chairman of the debate.
Woman Released on Promi
ise to Return It
Charity Berry, 771 West End avenue, was arrested on a charge of grand larceny by Detective Short of the 14th Squall, when she removed furniture which she said was her property from the apartment of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Green, 225 West 123d street. When arraigned in Heights Court Saturday morning before Magistrate Silberman, the accused woman testified that she had sold the furniture to the Greens, who were roomers at her apartment, but that they had failed to finish their payments. After repeated demands for payments, she said she decided to take her property.
Magistrate Silberman ruled that the defendant, having once sold the property, could no longer claim possession, and that if money was owed her on the furniture, her recourse was in the civil court, where she may bring legal demand for payment. She was released by the Magistrate in $1,000 bail upon her promise to return the property.
Green charged that along with the furniture, $55 in cash was in one of the drawers, in addition to linen, four men's shirt, two suits of clothes and a fur coat. The Berry woman denied all knowledge of the money, and pointed to the coat Mrs. Green was wearing as being the one she was accused of taking.
JANITOR HELD FOR
SLASHING BUG KILLER
William Walker, 44, janitor at No. 31 West Tenth street, was arrested and charged with cutting Charles McEhlone, white, 101 West Ninety-ninth street, an exterminator. Case will be tried Thursday. The two men got into an argument following the white man's refusal to use the rear door of the house.

CENT LEADERS
Mr. Calverton, in opening the debate, emphasized that Orthodox Christianity is, and always has been, reactionary to the progress of science and the Negro Christianity, he said, was the pillar of slavery, and religion has failed utterly to put love into, or change, the hearts of men; and that only by changing and improving the economic and social condition of man can his heart be changed or love be put into it.
Christianity, never accepted by the upper classes, was created for the purpose of offering a way of escape of the masses from social and economic oppression, Mr. Calverton said, and it was thus that civilization was placed under the dictatorship of the pagan.
"The position of the Negro," said Mr. Calverton, "is, of all people, the most grotesque, tragic and bili-
tious. Nothing is more humorous than seeing black men worshipping a white man's God in a black man's church!" Negro slaves accepted the religion given by their masters, the speaker reminded he hearers, and they were told, in effect, "You'll get your pie in the sky." Never mind getting a little more faith in Jesus, but get set
Having no scientific acceptance, it is very doubtful that Jesus ever existed, the speaker said, and declared the story of the Garden of Eden to be an allegory. The Holy Bible was described as being an unauthentic and unscientific body of contradictions, both ludicrous and absurd. Religion and Orthodox Christianity, being grounded in ignorance and superstition, attacked science the moment it began to understand and control the universe, he said.
Other points emphasized were: Slavery is condoned in the old and new Testament; Orthodoxy hinders philosophy and precludes freedom of expression of the human mind; the World War was a conflict of Christian commercial interests, and the opponents each prayed to the same God for a selfish victory: preachers have changed their opinions for over 2,000 years, and the attitude of New York preachers is distinctly capitalistic; Christianity is an impotent ventilation of the emotions and a hopeless dream: Christianity cannot put love in the hearts of men.

PORTO RICAN WIFE SLAIN; HUSBAND SOUGHT BY POLICE
White Man Kills Common Law Wife He Found With Senegalese Downtown Apart Landlady Accuses in First Murder
Mrs. Charlotte Irrizary, 20, a Porto Rican, was found stabbed to death in her apartment at 2 West 113th street, southwest corner of Fifth avenue, Monday. Her husband, Primitive Irrizary, is being sought on information supplied by Mrs. Mercedes Chavez, the landlady, that Irrizary had recently accused his wife of accepting attention from other men and had quarreled violently with her.
Another murder was committed by Oscar Flierson, 28, white, who surrendered to the police after the fatal drunken brawl in his apartment on the second floor of 238 West Forty-third street, between Eighth and Ninth avenues. He admitted, the police said, he beat to death his common law wife, Mrs. Nina Williams, also white, because he discovered her with a colored man. The man was later arrested as a material witness. Jules Barnreza, 21, a Senegalese, was arrested at 359 West Thirteyninth street. He speaks little English and told the police through an interpreter that Pierson's account of the affair was correct. Barnreza has been here three months from France and intended to return shortly, he said.

RACE AGAIN BARS APPOINTMENT
New York Civil Service Commission Disclaims Control Over Discrimination
Vacancy Exists
A striking illustration as to how discrimination is practiced in the Civil Service appointments is brought to light in the case of Mrs. Nathalie Stewart, who, although repeatedly qualifying for positions of Social Service Worker in Hospitals in competitive examinations, has failed to secure appointment. Mrs. Stewart, who lives at 814 East 223d street, has received certification of appointment to various state hospitals, including Middletown, Poughkeepsie, Kings Park, Utica and Binghamton, only to find upon her arrival at the hospital that her services were not required.
The New York Urban League, in an effort to ascertain the attitude of the Civil Service Commission, brought this to the attention of its president, Mrs. Charles Bennett Smith, who writes as follows:

(Mrs. Charles Bennett Smith.)
The decision holds that, if a Municipal Civil Service Commission or the State Civil Service Commission were permitted to compel the appointing officer to take the person whose name is next within certification, the appointment would be made by the Civil Service Commission and not by the head of the department, bureau or agency where the vacancy exists.
It was further held by the Court of Appeals that a certification of the highest three on the eligible list gives the appointing officer reasonable discretion in making a choice.
In the case of a single vacancy in a department, bureau, agency or institution, this Department, under the decision of the Court of Appeals, is required to certify the names of the three persons highest on the eligible list. The

An excerpt from the decision of
the Court of Appeals referred to
by Mrs. Smith reads as follows:
The provision of the Civil Service Law that appointments shall be . . . by appointment of those graded highest in open competitive examinations conducted by the State or Municipal Commission "is unconstitutional, since the right of appointment of necessity involves the power of selection and the exercise of discretion and judgment and the limitation of the right of appointment to the person graded highest would transfer the real power of appointment from the local authorities to the Civil Service Commission, and thus clearly nullify that provision of the Constitution which confers the power of appointing city offices upon the local authorities of the m

Gives Quick Comfort
It is dangerous to let a cold go without attention. Influenza or pneumonia may result. If you have a cold, or feel one coming on, act at once. Get the old reliable, quick-acting Johnson's Red Cross Kidney Plaster and put it on the chest. This marvulous relief-bringing plaster is double the size of the ordinary plaster, and not porous. Kidney-shaped to fit. Gives almost instantaneous relief -- warms, soothes, protects -- helps to relieve congestion and stimulate circulation. Be sure to ask the drugstor for the big Johnson's Red Cross Kidney Plaster with the red flannel back. (Advt.)
nicholality. "The statute of 1883 and the rules adopted by the Civil Service Commissioners under it, which required that officers to be appointed should be selected from the highest three on the eligible list, was valid." The Amsterdam News, in its two previous issues, published two other cases where persons who had passed civil service examinations were denied appointment on the ground of color.
From now, henceforth and forever, those who bow before the altar in the Monumental Baptist Church on Lafayette street, Jersey City, to be united in holy wedlock must mutually agree to obey. The Rev. W. S. Smith, pastor performed the first marriage Thursday under the new plan. In the past the wife only promised to obey. Miss Ellise S. Brown, daughter of Mrs. Isabelle Brown, was married to Herbert V. Marone of New York City. After promising to "love, comfort, honor and serve" each other until death, the bride and bridegroom answered "We do" to the following question put by the Rev. Smith: "Do you both jointly and solemnly agree and promise to obey the marriage law of God to the best of your will?

ter social and economic conditions, was the speaker's advice. "Orthodox Christianity is a religion of classes," he said. "Science and sociology recognize no classes. Adhere to science and become defiant and revolutionary." "Zy opponent," said Professor Miller, taking the floor, "was very eloquent, very learned and very wrong! I will concern myself with the reaction of religion upon mankind and deal with it as an agency of social salvation. Orthodox Christianity must be judged not by the horrors of the middle ages, but rather by the great sweep of its influence. Religion has guided mankind through the centuries, and has enabled an oppressed people

to endure for over three hundred years. Religion has had a profound influence upon human evolution and it has always inspired social and economic progress. The Church is the vessel of the heavenly Messenger. Religion operates only through an immediate hypothesis. Wherever science has gained, Orthodox Christianity has adjusted its ideas in harmony with it." "It is human to err
"There is a great margin between the procex and practice of Orthodox Christianity, and the same is true of the application of the Declaration of Independence. But we can no more say that Orthodox Christianity is a handicap to
MICHIGAN
Negro progress than is the American Government. And if the American Government is a handicap, let us do away with the government and see what happens." The political victories of the Negro were then reviewed in support of this assertion.
"Slavery was not a handicap to the Negro, nor has his will ever submitted to slavery. If it had not been for slavery, the Negro would not have come into contact with the religion, literature, science and education of the most advanced people of the world. And if will be through these Negroes that he will reach his fullest emancipation.
"Philosophy is a protective device to the overburdened. We must undergo in order to overcome. It was the Christian consciousness of progressive Orthodox Christianity that overthrew slavery, and that planted the seed of intelligence among the freedmen. They planted a rose of virtue in the garden of dishonor and shame. There is no Negro in America today who is not a beneficiary of Orthodox Christianity." The tremendous, vital and far-reaching influence of the forty thousand, churches in Colored America was brought forth as proof of the mighty influence of the church in the economic, social, and especially the political, life of the Negro throughout American history. Close these 40,000
churches, and organizations like the N. A. A. C. P., the Civil Rights League and the National Equal Rights Congress would have no meeting place, the speaker said. It was fear of the Romans that caused St. John to transfer his revelations from earth to heaven, and Christianity does likewise until humanity can make real the kingdom of heaven on earth, it was pointed out. "A destruction of the 'Ys' and churches in Harlem alone," said Professor Miller, "would transform it from the so-called 'Nigger Heaven' into an abode of the damned. What, I ask you, would the Negro do, if they were denied all Christian support?"
In the rebuttal, Mr. Calverton talked mostly of the period of slavery, declaring that the Christians had found slavery unprofitable until the price of slaves went up. The American Government is one hundred per cent a handicap to Negro progress, he said, and that the Negro is told to accept Jesus, but not to ask for equality. In spite of the Fourteenth Amendment, which he classed along with vandowville, the Negro is still Jim-crowed, disfranchised and lynched, and is still a slave, a slave to economic and social oppression, he declared. In 1867 the Negro was a pawn in the hands of President Abraham Lincoln, who freed them, he said, solely as
a matter of political expedition. Professor Miller then demanded of his opponent to know what he would give the people as a "substitute for Christianity." The simplicity of Jesus, which swayed the world, if it will not bring peace, honor and harmony, then what will? There is no dispensation under the heavens that can save us except the dispensation of Orthodox Christianity properly interpreted and properly applied. Like Ghandi, of India, the Negro must employ passive, moral resistance until he is able to match power with power."
In closing the debate, Mr. Calvert asked American "generosity" why the South still denied franchisement to the Negro. The Republican Party was denounced, and the speaker went back again to the Civil War period for fresh material. Yes, he would destroy all the Y. M. C. A's., and the churches, and would free the workers of the United States from wage slavery, and reconstruct our entire economic and social systems.
Each speaker was given thirty-five minutes for argument, followed by ten minutes of rebuttal from the affirmative. Then fifteen minutes was given the negative for rebuttal, followed by five minutes rebuttal for the affirmative. There were no judges to decide the winner of the debate, and the audience was not asked for a decision.

Interdenominational Alliance Holds Session in Washington
Addresses Made by Rev. C. L. Russell, Organization Head; James Weldon Johnson, Rev. Anson Phelps Stokes, Rev. A. C. Garner and Others
WASHINGTON, D. C., April 25.—The delegates attending the Interdenominational Ministerial Alliance, in session at the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church last week, were extended a formal greeting by President Coolidge at the White House executive offices. President Coolidge expressed his faith in the leadership of the colored race by the colored ministry, and declared: "Your opportunities are large and your responsibilities great."

181 West 135th Street
The delivery of the president's annual address by the Rev. C. L. Russell of Washington, founder and president of the alliance, occupied the morning session Wednesday. The address was a plea for, stricter adherence to the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Constitutional Amendments, which, if adhered to, he said, would tend to promote the "civil, economic and political aspirations of the colored race." CANON STOKES SPEAKS. The Rev. Anson Phelps Stokes, canon of Washington Cathedral, addressed the alliance on "America's Need of Reilgon" Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Mordecail Johnson, president of Howard University, spoke at 4 o'clock.
"What Price Freedom?" was the subject of an address by James W. Johnson, executive secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People," at S. clock Thursday night. The Rev. David Wylie, president of the Lord's Day Alliance of America, also spoke on "The Fight for the Best of Days."
WOMEN ASSUMING LEADERSHIP.
A symposium was held upon the subject of Negro leadership. The Rev. D. D. Turpeau of Pittsburgh stated the "womanhood of our race is repudiating the leadership of the ministry, and assuming the leadership of their own."
He warned the colored ministry against participating in political affairs and characterized it as "some thing which is contrary to the promotion of our group." He said that "the realm of the ministry was in the field of moral ideals," and he advised the colored ministry to "purge themselves of political affiliations and creeds."
He was answered by the Rev.
On May 3 a campaign to raise funds for the modernizing program of the Y. M. C. A. will begin. It will end May 13th. Ten days to raise funds for an additional site, equipment and improvements on the West 135th Street Branch.

Garner of New York, who said that "as long as the moral leadership rests in the hands of the ministry all other forms remain there also," adding that "it is the colored minister who most nearly grasps the issues before the Negro voter, and can best interpret them to him." SAYS VOTE IS NEEDED. The Rev. W. B. Wiseman of Washington, the last speaker, made the statement that "the colored vote is badly needed in a close campaign and consequently of great weight in determining the results of elections which may be of great moment to the nation, and that the preacher who has the intellectual capacity, combined with the qualities of leadership, is in the best position to render this service."

"Educated Young Negroes Selfish," Pastor Holds
The Rev. Dr. John W. Robinson, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. Church, in his sermon Sunday morning, deplored the attitude that many of the young educated men and women take towards the problems of life. He said that many of them are concerned only with material gains, and not how much service they can render their community or country.
"It is difficult," he said. "for many of our educated young people to realize the great need of service and to live unselfish lives. They are concerned only with the easy things of life that do not require sacrifice." Dr. Robinson said that it is a rare thing for young men and women who are educated in the North to want to go South and teach. They are not willing to put up with inconveniences, but are looking always for the soft things of life.
Dr. Robinson told how young white men and women were willing to go South and be ostracized from society in order to teach the Negro. He said that they were not always thinking of the easy things of life, but of how much service they could render.

AGED WOMAN NABBED AS FAKER
30-Year-Old Rheumatic "Doctor's" Effective Work Halted by Law

By FANNIE POTTER
"I'm tired, child, tired." I Anthony say that. Despite I been gay and sprightly. But months and months of courts all the worry that accompanies Mrs. Elizabeth Anthony—known to the whole of the Ey was arrested the latter part of ing a fake doctor.

"I'm tired, child, tired." It was unusual to hear Mother Anthony say that. Despite her 80 years, she has always been gay and sprightly. But who wouldn't be tired after months and months of courts, investigations, lawyers and all the worry that accompanies?
Mrs. Elizabeth Anthony—or Mother Anthony, as she is known to the whole of the Evergreen section of Brooklyn—was arrested the latter part of last week on a charge of being a fake doctor. Two white women investigators, Violet Clay and Mary Jackson, were sent to Mrs. Anthony's home, 452 Clover place. They complained of rheumatic pains and were accordingly immersed in a bath of bran paste, to which was added hops, herbs and a liquid. The treatment lasted two hours and the fee was five dollars.
The court ruled that Mother Anthony and her daughter, Mrs. Carrie Hines, acted as fakers and they were placed in ball for working without a license.
However, it was proved that Mother Anthony had given only external treatment. All the doctors of Evergreen and Ridgewood spoke highly of her, telling how she had taken cases when they had given up. Their advice to patients suffering from rheumatism was "Go to the colored woman as many times as she will take you." They went. Mrs. Anthony averaged fifteen patients a day, most of them wealthy white people. One doctor travelled all the way from the West for treatment.
In answer to my question "Do you intend to sell the patent?" Mother Anthony said, "Yes, I intend to sell. The work must go on."
At that moment we were interrupted: "Mother Anthony, my mother wants you to come right over." A little white toot looked anxiously at her. Mother Anthony sighed as she gazed out of the window. She knew her duty. She knew the trust that hundreds of people placed in her. But the courts had decided that she must discontinue her practice of the past forty years. Mother Anthony has taken cases when the doctor has said: "No hope." She has prospered too. Mother Anthony owns five houses, several lots and three cars.
MAN SHOT IN BACK
OUT OF DANGER
James Mason, 55, laborer. 20 West 129th street, who was found last Wednesday in front of 44 West 129th street, near Fifth avenue, with a 32-calibre bullet wound through his back and chest, was reported by Harlem Hospital to be cut of danger.
Probation Agents Joseph Perengelo and Louis Decanto were questioned by detectives of the West 123d Street Station after Mason was found. The agents admitted they fired four shots at a bartender who fled from an alleged "speakeasy" at 2175 Seventh avenue.
No charges were brought against Perengelo and Decanto, as detectives could not link them with the Mason shooting.

Any subscriber wishing one of these coupon books may obtain same by providing his receipt to the campaign manager and receiving in return a coupon book, which will be properly registered. If you are having trouble in getting your paper regularly by mail and there is a dealer near you come in and get a coupon book.

Campaign Notes
We apologize to Mrs. Julian Tischman for an error in her last vote count. Her standing was a million votes short. However, an error of this kind would have no effect on the final count as all votes will be carefully checked and audited before the judges make the final count.
Miss Ada Adams is working hard and will surely be heard from when the judges open the ballot box.
Do not overlook William H. Booth. He is piling up the votes and making an excellent showing.
Mrs. Susie Mae Breathwaite has added a fine lot of votes during the past week. Her score is steadily growing.
Miss E. A. Dorey is coming along fine, she is piling in the votes on the shape.
Mrs. Henrietta Ferdinand added a fine lot of votes just in time to take advantage of the Second Period.
Mrs. Lottie V. Hammond is losing the time. Her vote score is easily growing and she will be better when the priggs make the final count.
Albert Hawkins is after something big and from the way his votes show he is in a fine way to get what he has in mind.
Miss Patsy Wilson is rolling up fine lot of votes. She will be heard from in no uncertain words.
You have ten days left to settle this election. There is no time to lose and all we can say is that the best hustler will win a Big Nash and others will win prizes in proportion to their efforts. Your fate is now in your hands, and after this Saturday no one but yourself will know what it is.
Good luck to you and may you make the best of these few remaining days.
Miss Ernestine Louder is coming right along. She is holding her own and will not be left behind.
Leland McKinney is forging to the front. His vote score is growing and before the last bell he will show his full strength.
Miss Elizabeth Nixon is keeping right in the running. Votes are what count and she is bringing them in.
Miss Nellie Taylor is also going strong. This is the time to pile up votes and she is doing her share.
Miss Tiffany Wanamaker has added a fine lot of votes during the race.

Adelphi Bowling in Post-Lenten Dance
Incorporated Body's Formal
Affair Attended by Over
1,000—Ladies Tastefully Gowned
The post-Lenten week came to a fitting close on Friday evening, April 22, when the Adeliph Bowling
Cash, Inc., gave its annual complimentary assembly at Manhattan Casino, 155th street and Eighth
avenue.
Over 1,000 people were present at this formal dance. At 12:30 the grand march—with all of its usual
form and splendor—took place.
The ladies were lovely in their taffetas, geartettes, spangles, crepe de chines and velvets of all shades and descriptions. In the fashion line were models from the wide, very wide skirts of colonial days to the narrow, very short styles of today. A few Spanish shawls and many Trills, scallops, fringes and beads were in evidence.
In this club are the following: Samuel A. Bentley, president; Frank Freed, vice-president; Joan W. Duncan, treasurer; Hilton W. Waller, secretary; James N. Anderson, captain; Willis H. O'Kelly, sergeant-at-arms; Ira L. Aldridge, Dr. William H. Allen, Richard L. Baltimore, J. Hillard Bowen, J. Arnold Cann, Dr. William J. Carter, Pharoh Davis, William H. Flood, Charles Hill.

Sidelights on the Dance.
Style was the keynote of the affair. A canopy on the sidewalk, a receiving line to identify and greet each guest, vellum dance orders for everybody are some of extra features that lent style to the occasion.
A troop of soldiers could not have exhibited a more orderly grand march than these 35 men did.
Two photographers were present to make a flashlight group picture. One camera was accidentally tipped over and the reflector was broken into small bits. Each year more members of the younger set are invited to this formal classic.

NEARLY all of my correspondents have versed grief over something done in the past or some future fear or present doubt. It oftimes seems as though the other fellow has all the good luck, while we trudge along life's way just barely keeping up. And that's just what keeps us down. Too much reflection, inaction, fear of failure. Not enough self-confidence, determination and hard work.
A successful business man has a maxim in his office that catches everyone's eye: "Success is one-tenth inspiration and nine-tenth perspiration." And the motto isn't on the wall only. It's in his heart, too.
If your life is full of past regrets and future forebodlings, remember the power of substitution; stepace worry with hard work. Fill the spare moments with a hobby. Get out and see something. Go out and do something. Na me is beautiful and calls us these days. It's surprising how good one eels with the blue heave; its right above his head and an inner satisfaction of having done his work attribuly.
Dear Madam; am a young man who, although possessed with a deeply innate incessant sense of humor, lives a very deep and serious anxious affection for a certain young lady who does not seem to see that side of me. She seems to doubt me, and consequently worries me to the utmost.
This young lady is a typical twentieth century modernist, well blessed in my edition, she has all of her own conjuring attitudes to be seen in my individual and I do not mind admitting that I have fallen a victim, but she has so many other miters that I am about to give up although the thought of it gives me the worst heartache. I have ever had, but I have never had, although she says that she cares. Shall I persist in my efforts or shall I divert my attention in another direction?
Dear C. A.:
You say you are possessed outwardly with an apparently innocent sense of humor, but have a very deep affection for a young lady who doesn't seem to notice that side of your life and consequently doubts you. Now, my dear,

I think the girl cares for you. She doesn't discourage you and is most likely trying to find out if you care, or are only "joshing." She can't read your mind. Don't forget. As you have discovered by now oveh has got a sense of humor, o why pretend that it has? Naturally, she thinks that if you see humor in everything, you're not serious.
Remember that "faint heart neer won fair lady." Much unhappiness caused because we canamouflage. Show her that you are human, too, and instead of soulliness, handle a little when she gets you jealous. She will like you much better. I'll wager my new Easter bonnet on that. The sincere opinion of

Doctors and good pharmacists know that Cod Liver Oil is full of vitamins that make flesh, create appetite, build up the power to resist disease and put good solid flesh on skinny men and women. But it's repulsive in taste and smell and nearly every stomach rebels against it. So now men and women who keep up with the times are taking McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Compound Tablets — rich in flesh producing, health building, strength creating vitamins, and as easy to take as candy. Try them for 30 days if you want to will out those scrawny hollows in chest, cheeks and neck and gain strength and vigor. And bear this in mind. If they don't help you in that time any drugstreet anywha' we will return your money. Bui demand McCoy's. 60 tablets 60 cents — (Advt.)

The Revival of "Goat Alley"
The Revival of "Goat Alley"
And "H. B." Has Seen Much to Admire in This Old Offering
The Toulssaint Players present "Goat Alley," a drama of Negro life by Ernest Howard Culbertson, directed by Egon Brecher of the Civic Repertory Theatre, at the Princess Theatre. The cast:
Lucy Belle Dorsey.....Evelyn Ellis
Slim Dorsey.....Edward Thompson
Sam Reed.....A. B. Comathere
Aunt Rebecca.....Ellizabeth Williams
Lizzle Gibbs.....Dorothy Paul
Jeff Bisbee.....J. Louis Johnson
Chick Avery.....Baron Bryan
Jeremiah Pocher.....Hayes Prior
Fanny Dorsey.....Margaret Petty
Israel Dorsey.....George Watson
Policeman.....Jack Carter
"Goat Alley" is a tragedy of a
hard working lone colored girl
whose life is marred by inopportune habits.
Negro-written and Negro-acted, this melodrama proved such a novelty at the Princess Theatre that it won fourteen curtain calls and repeated shouts for the author, Amateurish in many spots, it is acted with primitive zest in the love scenes and grand opera exaggeration in the tragic moments. It is naive and refreshingly brutal—worth going to see as a play and as a product of a race.
Lucy Belle, played with unrestrained feeling by the dark little Evelyn Ellis, begins by being married. Baby No. 1. Her husband deserts her and she becomes a slavey to the burly hard-bitten Jeff Bisbee. Baby No. 2. The rascally Jeff gets into a fight with Sam Reed, a steady, tolling Nero, and Jeff is sent to fail.
Lucy falls in love with Sam, who is a devoted and jealous Othello. Her life with him is interrupted by the return of Jeff, Sam stabs him as he tries to take Lucy away, and Sam is sent off for a long term.
Then Lucy's worthless brother, Slim, steals her money. She is forced to take in as a roomer a gay young barber, Chick Avery, and she has another baby.
Sam comes back from fall, devoted as ever. He has with difficulty forgiven her the child by Jeff, swearing that if she ever has another lover he will kill her. He knocks at the door while Lucy is nursing the latest infant. She rises in terror.
"Sho, now chile. Quit yo' crying," says a fat manmy. "Yo' ain't got nothin' to worry about!" Lucy hides the baby a moment before the overjoyed Sam takes her into his arms. Determined to keep him from knowing about the child, which she regards as a final curse, she takes it out and drowns it. While she is gone Sam is told by a jealous woman of Lucy's affair with the barber.
In a desperate scene Lucy convinces Sam that the story is a life. She has just won him over when the mummy comes in and inquires about the baby. Sam thrusts the woman out the door, locks it, and chokes Lucy to death.
The part of Sam is played finely by A. B. Comathiere, Baron Bryan wins many a laugh as the barber. H. B.

With the Billiardists
OWING to the coolness of the weather, none of the big billiard rooms are showing any effects of the baseball season as yet.
THE pocket billiard tournament, now coming to a close in Pittsburgh, should show good players of the amateur brand. An interstate pocket billiard match would be fine. The Colored Amateur Billiard Players' Association would be pleased to promote such a player, take home from Pittsburgh, Address C. A. B. F, 165 West 132d street, New York.
A NUMBER of the big timers are seen on the green cloth at the Lafayette Billiard Emporium these days—Muller, Lyles, Paul Floyd, Trent, Johnson, Gordon—having just returned from a successful game. Trent has just put over one of the season's song hits. Atta boy, Joe!
MILLER says it takes all of his time to figure how he can lose a game of billiards to Lyle. While that may be so, Lyle keeps Black Carl huddling to win one from him.
IN order to clear up and substantiate himself, the matchmaker of the Emporium will have to arrange a match game between J. R. Johnson and his associate, Taylor Gordon.
SOME of the patrons, noting the signs in and around the door of the Emporium, said they noted the new window decorations they let out a howl for new cues. All right, boys. May 1st is moving day, and there is going to be some cue moving done.
A PROFESSIONAL pocket billiard armament, the company that the Emporium to Include "Thulhidhela Slim," "Charleston," "Shakley."
And now that we have a minute in which to come up for air, we point with pardonable pride to another season just closed in which the sport and amusement pages of the Amsterdam News continued in the lead among Negro publications here.
With baseball taking the spotlight, we submit for your approval the only paper published by Negroes in this part of the world carrying ALL the important games. Do not take our word. Just get all the papers and we will be perfectly satisfied to abide by your judgment.
GILBERT IN "THE SHOW" HERE
GILBERT IN "THE SHOW" HERE
Will Be at the Douglas Theatre This Week in Fine Picture
John Gilbert, outstanding star who has been called "the screen's greatest lover," and who comes to the Douglas Theatre this week in "The Show," comes naturally by his historic ability. His father and mother were both celebrities of the speaking stage.
Born in Logan, Utah, he received his education in schools all over the country, wherever his parents happened to be. The finishing touches he received at the Hitchcock Military Academy, San Rafael, California. He played his first role on the stage when he was a year old under Eddie Foy. For some time he fluctuated between pictures, in which he had his first experience as an extra in short features in 1915, and other fields. Among other things he was a rubber salesman and a newspaper reporter.
The lure of the screen was too strong, however, and finally Gilbert devoted himself definitely to it as his life work. He worked himself up slowly through small parts to leading man for Mary Pickford in "Heart of the Hills." Then he free lanced as an actor, signing finally with Maurice Tourneur. Next he made his own productions in New York.
Popular Postos at Manhattan Casino Monday
A crowded house will likely greet the Postos Club Monday night at Manhattan Casino to hear Fletcher Henderson in his last appearance in New York before leaving for a cross-country tour with his Roseland Orchestra.
In addition to the inimitable Fletcher and his Roseland Orchestra, the popular Postos will offer Alex Jackson and his famous Plantation Orchestra after an absence from Harlem of two seasons. The two musical aggregations offer an exceptional evening to those who have been fortunate enough to be among the invited.
The Postos have made a name for invitational affairs, being the first post office club to inaugurate these dancesantes, and the usual high class evening is being looked forward to by their host of friends.

SEAONS may come, seasons may go, but the gentleman's game of billiards goes on for recreation and pleasure.

Double Feature at the Renaissance This Week
Thursday and Friday. April 25 and 29, will be bargain day at the Renaissance Theatre, when the management will present a double feature bill: Henry B. Walthall in "Confession" and May Allison in "Her Indiscretion."
In "Confession" the brother of a priest is arrested for murder. The real murderer has confessed but lips of the priest are sealed. Follow the interesting story on the screen at the Renaissance. "Her Indiscretion" has a brilliant cast. It is an intensely dramatic photoplay in which the movie makers have outdone themselves in providing thrills.
Clara Bow in "It" will be the attraction Saturday, April 30, and May 1-2. This is an Elinor Glyn-Clarence Badger production and in "It" one finds comedy, class, drama and love scenes, such as only Elinor Glyn can write. Antonio Moreno ably supports Miss Bow.
Classed as one of the season's outstanding hits, this picture will please all. See "It" at your favorite theatre.
FRENCH FARCE, "A KISS IN A TAXI," STARS BEBE DANIELS
Chester Conklin Featured Latest Clarence Badger Production
"A Kiss in a Taxi," Bebe Daniels' latest Paramount comedy success, arrives at the Lincoln Theatre next Thursday. Advance notices claim it to be equally as good as "The Campus 'Flirt.'" "Stranded in Paris" or "Lovers in Quarantine." And to give the farce added color "A Kiss" takes place in zat gay city on the Seine, Farce!
Perhaps you wonder the cause for such a provoking title? Strange as it may seem, "A Kiss in a Taxi" really has quite a bearing on the story it tells. As Ginette, beautiful Montmartre cafe waitress, Bebe has ample opportunity for the racy riotous comedy she has become famous for. It is the opinion of all the babe's frequenters that only one man can kiss Ginette's lovely face and he is Lucien Cambolle, her flame. But strangers come who do not know and so—Leon Lambert tries his luck, with a cockerery battle royal ensuing. Why question the results? Rather let us do a quick fade out from the field of combat.
A few days later, Lambert, riding around town in a cab, stops before a florist's shop and gets out to purchase a corsage for his comely companion, but while he is gone the bird also flies away. On his return, a figure crouches in the corner. Lambert offers his floral tribute and turns to claim a kiss. He gets it, but also receives a stiff right to the jaw. The occupant of the cab is not his former companion, but Ginette! How did she get there? What happens? These are some of the things "A Kiss in a Taxi" will divulge. Chester Conklin adds his bag of tricks to all those which Bebe puts over. Clarence Badger, director of a long line of hits, is said to present another masterly job. Douglas Gilmore, a new Paramount

Conklin is the timid secretary whose name is used in a love affair by a married man. Of course, when he discovers what uses are being made with his title Chester runs wild! And when the word "wild" is printed we mean W-i-l-d! A combo chase ensues with an outcome which is much too good to be divulged on paper and far too funny to be missed on the screen. Clarence Badger's sure fire direction clicks once more.

Mrs. Domingo in Fine Recital
Achieved Artistic Triumph at Imperial Auditorium Last Week
Just when we were about to conclude that the present musical season would close without the arrival of any new colored talent, Long came Mrs. Eulalia Domingo and her students, assisted by Mrs. Margaret Wets, of Steinway Hall. In one of the best piano recitals we have ever had the good fortune to attend, at Imperial Hall, on Thursday, April 21. The program was especially continental in its character, opening with Leybach's "Fifth Nocturne," and including items from Heller, Moskowski, Kreisler, Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Bohm, Grieg, Rheinhold, and several other well known European composers.
At the opening of the program Miss Doris Wint, at the piano, presented the Fifth Nocturne of Leybach. Her playing disclosed very excellent skill, both in interpretation and in technique. The playing of all of the students was of high merit, particularly that of Messrs. Dujon, Gonibourne and Hanson, and the Misses Brown, Barret and Hanson. All of the students gave evidence of technical talent and showed evidence of painstaking and finished instruction.
Mrs. Domingo showed rare judgment in presenting and preparing her program, for unlike the average teacher in recital with her students, she refrained from spreading her name all over the program, which gave her pupils ample positions in which to display their talent.
She appeared only twice in the entire program, her first number being Mendelssohn's "Rondo Capricoloso," which she rendered with exceptional skill. Mrs. Domingo played this number with startling proficiency, and demonstrated the fact that while her instruction has been largely under the direction of western teachers, she is essentially European in her technical ex

Aid Colored Flood Sufferers
Midnight Benefit Performance to Be Given at Lafayette Tuesday
A special midnight benefit performance will be given at the Lafayette Theatre next Tuesday for the benefit of the many colored families who have been made destitute by the floods now sweeping the lower Mississippi.
The daily reports of the disaster are most appalling. Hundreds have been left injured and starving, and among them are innumerable colored men, women and children.
The management of the Lafayette Theatre is planning to ask a committee of representative citizens in Harlem to assist in making the benefit performance successful. If there was ever a cause which justified the support of the public, this is it.
Announcement of the program to be given will be made shortly. Every colored actor of prominence in the city will be asked to participate. The Lafayette Theatre will be donated without charge, as will also the cost of advertising.
Give a helping hand. Make sure that you attend next Tuesday's midnight benefit performance.

Southland Revue Scores Big Hit
Tim Moore, Jean Starr and Mercia Marquez Head Unusually Splendid Cast
The second venture of the management of the Lafayette Theatre into the business of producing theatrical entertainment met with an unusually enthusiastic audience at the opening performance on Monday. And 'tis small wonder, for the cast reads like a list of some of the most popular colored entertainers in town: Tim Moore, Fred Johnson, Jean Starr, Mercia Marquez, Dewey Brown, Jimmy Johnson, Dusty Fletcher, Campbell and Farrell and other celebrities.
Comedy vies with beautiful dancing and sweet music to make the revue one of the finest seen in Harlem for many months, and wave after wave of applause greeted the numbers. Jean Starr "stopped the show" with her spirited rendition of "Nobody But My Baby Gets My Love:" Tim Moore and Freddie Johnson produced a continuous roar of laughter in a twenty-minute comedy sketch entitled "Malinda's Wedding." Miss Marquez's perfectly-timed tap dancing brought a hearty burst of approval.
One of the real surprises of the show was the reception accorded to Jimmie Johnson. Jimmie rendered a number called "A Good Little Gal." Part of the number is an impassioned address which a country lawyer makes in defense of a girl who has been arrested for a crime. The audience applauded for fully a minute when Jimmie finished.
The chorus of Southland Revue is excellently trained. They go through five numbers which are well received. One—a drill—is the finest dance number seen in these parts this season. There is a little girl who is new to Lafayette Theatre goers who contributes a little novelty to the numbers. Her name is Cora La Redd. She is a fine little "clown." Many who saw her predicted that her name would soon appear with the "Stars." Viola Speedy also does very creditable work, as does Mrs. Billie Mitchell.

Friends Mourn Loss of Well Known Performer
The death on Thursday, April 7 at his residence, 409 West 145th street, of Adrian Joyce (Parchment) was keenly felt by those of the sporting and theatrical profession. Joyce was 25 years old and started out in life to be a boxer and ended up being an actor. His career began in 1920 when still in his teens he appeared in "Bon Bon Buddle," and later with "Shuffle Along," where he afterwards became a favorite. When he entered "4-11-44" ("How Come") he took with him the same genial personality and never-to-be-forgotten smile which always pleased and was a distinguishing mark of his character. On Oct. 9, 1926, he returned to his home, and though he received the skillful attention of Dr. T. F. Reed, he died on April 7 and was buried at Woodlawn Cemetery.

Al Brown and Josephine Baker in the Limelight
The two Americans most in the public eye of Paris at present are Negroes, an Associated Press despatch of last week, tells us.
One-As the limber-legged dancer, Josephine Baker, and the other is a boxer, Al Brown. Not a day goes by but one of them is the subject of a sketch, article or funny story in some newspaper or magazine. Neither the White House spokesman nor Senator Borah fill half so many columns of the French press.
Brown, originally from Panama, expects to return to America as soon as he has knocked out a few more ambitious boxers on this side of the water. Jazz-mad Josephine is making so many francs, what with being the star of the Follies' Bergeres and the owner of the most chic "night box" in Montmartre, that she hasn't any idea of when she will go back to St. Louis.

Staved Off Defeat by Her-
culean Efforts at Psycho-
logical Moment
By THOMAS W. YOUNG.
| The spirit of the Young Men s
Division of the West 12h Street
FY. M,C. A. animated itself Satur-
‘day night in the Y gym, when the
ee M.D. quint, by undaunted cours
juge befure the Onslaught of the
older und more experienced play-
fers of the Y. M.D, Alumni, took
ja game chock full of excitement by
a one-point margin, score 22-22.
in those last few hair-raising
‘minutes the Alumni staved off de-
feat several Uimes when long shots
jymt them ahead. Determined to
have only victory. the Yy M.D.
ens om are Mad with 6
‘prilliant play and assume the lead
again, Agd when the whistle
sounded George Gregory's last, but
yuin. effort. Was descending into
the busket, but previous to thls
Baker liad’ received a pass from
the outside from Rainer and had
accounted for a shot that faltered
on the rim before . dropning
through. So Gregory's two points
could only reduce a three point
lead to one.
‘Whea the ¥. M. D. sharp-shoot-
ers returned at the beginning of
the second half on the less desic-
able portion of a 10-7 count, there
was blood in thelr eyes, Two shots
hy Jefferies and Baker put them in
the lead. The Y. M. D. remained
in the léad until Gregory recorded
a ghot and free throw to make the
count 15 to 14 for the losers.
‘But after u tense rally in which
the cheers of the partisan galleries
all but raised the roof. the destin-
ed quint forged ahead again on
Rainer’s shot. Reese und Gregory
each made x foul shot. and then
“Squack” Miller. Alumni’s forward,
stole the lead again with a loop
from the center of the floor. The
score Was 18-17, 7
But the Y. M.D. became desper-
ate. The trophy whieh designates
supremacy aniong the Y teams
sent its ghost across thelr horizon.
Thoy were doggedly clinging to the
sphere and advancing it down the
floor like 2 machine of many win-
ters,
Jefferies took a pass trom “Adams
and bottled it, bringing to his team
a lead that never was surpassed.
Rainer Increased the advantage
with another well executed shot,
but the most tenacious man on the
court when it comes to dribbling,
Dick Seay. then intercepted a pass
and sent’ tho sphere twirling
through the strings.
Nevertheless, the Y. ‘M.D. had
tasted of the vintage of victory. It
was delicious, Then camo Baker's
shot whfch removed all doubt
from the hearts of those followers
who shrieked for victory.

Miss Theresa M. Denning, 807 Nelson St., Knoxville, Tenn., (picture above) says: "I suffered quite a bit with weakness, and at times would have severe headaches and would have to go to bed. My limbs seemed to draw, and I felt so weak and shaky. This was just before I graduated, and I didn't want to lose any time in school. I was listless and tired all the time." Cardui was recommended. After the first bottle I felt better, but I wouldn't willing quit then. I took another and there was a great difference in my feeling. I do not suffer now with headache—in fact, I feel well."

By Scout Edward Lewis
Three classes of Scouts are included in the Scout program: the tenderfoot, second class and first class scout. The tenderfoot, a boy who has his first class scout, to know his first to know his Scout law, the Scout oath, the history of his flag, other events, and how to the knots. After thirty days have elapsed he may qualify for his second class test, which consists of how to cook potatoes, pancakes and other Droaking and observation. his ability to cover a mile in 12 minutes are also included.
After 60 days the Scout is qualified for his first class test, if he proves his ability to swim 50 yards, to be thrifty, to cook, to know the leaves and trees of nature, to know how to draw a map, to walk 15 miles and to make a hike. These things are included in the Scout program.
Merit badges are the next thing a Scout wishes to possess after passing his first class test, to become a Star Scout, a Lite Scout, and then to become an Eagle Scout. Then other boys in what he has learned.
In Scouting a reliable Scout never stays still. He is always alert to pass a certain test, to show his Scoutmaster or his brother Scout his ability. He tries to abide by his law of trustworthiness, loyalty, selflessness, friendliness, courtesy, kindness, obedience, cheerfulness, thriftiness, bravery, cleanliness and reverence.
Well, Scouts, May 1 will soon be here.
Easter Ege Hunt.
Monday night was a big night for
Scouts of Troop 776. Mr. Cobb,
their Scoutmaster, staged a dressing
contest. The winner was
wearing Easter eggs for his quick-
ness. The Scout was an Easter
egg hunt. It was for those
Scouts looking all over the
church for those eggs. Well,
they looked and looked, but no eggs
were to be found. Mr. Cobb almost
cracked his side laughing.
They said they could they
couldn't find any Easter eggs. A
cake was on the table and it looked
so good the Scouts were all rubbing
the stomachs, but that was
all. Finally the cake was cut by
Mr. Seens and there in the cake
the eggs were in. The bunny
had laid them there. Well, yum,
the cake and eggs were eaten
up to the Scouts' content.
Well, Scouts, summer will soon find you out in the open—not day hiking, but staying in the woods overnight. Some scouts will have a pup tent while others will make themselves a bed from the boughs and leaves of a tree, with the sky above. On the ground as their floor, the moon shines.
Some Scouts could grab their knapsacks right now, when it comes to talking about pancakes and flapjacks, which are something the hardtack when they are done. Beans and potatoes are also included in our menu; but what kind of beans? Well, just say Campbell's and add the beans onto it. Now, get set and go! We now have 20 months before all this eating comes off. Then our stomachs will begin to puff out and go down again after we've walked about ten miles. We see sorry, now. You will have to wipe your feet up; only 20 more miles to go.
Equipment.
The equipment for an overnight hike is follows:
Pup must eat kit, canteen, two blankets, kit, spoon, and cup, flashlight, towel, soap, toothbrush, tooth paste, notebook and pencil, bathing suit, raincoat or suit, uniform or suit, and some games.
The following are for patrol leaders only: Knife, axe, rope, first-aid kit, notebook and pencil, hat, badge, troop numeral, whistle (no Scout coats), shoes (tan), and compass.

that the Negro must build on his

therefore, urges the race to look

Frederick Douglass epitomized
this sentiment in the sententious

Dr. DuBois has been trylug for
a number of years to promote a

ficent bridges. from which one
geta a splendid view of the sur-
rounding buildings.
The most striking of these is
the Castel San Angelo, « formid-
able looking fortress, bult in

for its famous sieges, and for the
tradition that the ‘Archangel
Michael once appeared over its
great dome ta Pope Gregory

‘The first thing that strikes
me is the magnificent square
with its colonnade leading to tbe
very wide steps of the church.
‘The cofonnade is in two sweeps
of 142 columns each, with 00
pillars and 192 statues of saints,
euch 16 feet high. In the center
of the square, or piazza, as it is
called, is a towering Egyptian
obelisk, with two magnificent
fountains on either side, apont-
ing water high into the air.
But one must be sparing of
praise for the outside, or how
shall one ever find words to
speak of the Interior, where J ar-

would be if it weren't for these

to be disturbed.
I ghail certainly not attempt to
give a description of tha interior
of St, Peter's. except to say in
the most unqualified terms that
it ts the grandest. most thrilling,
most satisfying sight I have ever
beheld. I have seen some of the
mog magnificent creations of
man and of nature, but never
anything to equal it. Use ull the
adjectives denoting wonder, mag-
nificence, beauty and one would
dent the vast possibilities

The forerunner of the junior
high school Is the preparatory
school. which bridges the gap Le-
tween high school and college.

institutions of this type. state in
their catalogs that the aim of the
preparatory: school is to Introduce
college subjects taught by colleze
methods with the purpose of
presenting to the high school

training, For financial reasons,
this highly desirable course 1s

ave the students greatly alved vy
thelr high school instractors in
regard to the choice of collese

far loo busy to spare time for

may be. .
Realizing — theed difficulties,
the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity
has organized a three-fold plan:
To have talks with high school
seniors in order to give them a
clear and vivid picturo of college
education and Its values; to aid
and urge them in the selection of
subjects that will prepare them
for a definite position or jro-
fession after graduation from
college; and to provide worthy
students ith scholarships fn
order that they may achieve the
heights which a Nberal education
offers them. :

JAMAICA LEADS PENN RED CAPS
Five Run Rally by Long Islanders Had Much to Do With Victory
Jamaica won two contests from the Penn Red Caps at Carpenter's Oval Sunday afternoon. Jamaica won the opener in the tenth frame by a score of 7 to 6, but had an easy time winning the nightcap by a score of 11 to 5. These triumphs carried the Jamaica streak to six games.
It looked as if the Red Caps would snap the string of the homesters at four in the opening tilt, when they carried a 5 to 1 lead through the seventh session. A five-run rally by Jamaica, however, gave it the lead in the eighth, only to have the count tied again in the ninth.
Claude Soper's infield hit scored Charley Weigold with the winning run in the tenth.
Jamala shelled Wallace from the mound in the fourth inning of the second game and scored five runs.
Charley Welgold red the Jamala attack in the second game, getting four hits in five chances. Welgold made one hit in two trips to the plate in the first game. The scores:

April is the most treacherous month on the calendar. Day in and day out the weather man misses out on his calculations. When he says "clear and warm," you're sure to need an overcoat. "Rain and colder" is almost a certainty for bathing suit weather. To be really prepared for whatever turns up, wear a ROXY TO COAT. Well-made, stylishly fashioned, you're warm when it's cold, and comfortable when it's warm. Keep in step with the weather.

United Pantiers Also Taking Hand in Segregation Controversy
The Rev. George Crawley, together with the citizens and parents of Toms River, N. J., is a leader in the fight growing out of the school segregation scheme there, it is said.
The court has already freed the parents of the charge of negligence. Next week the State Board of Education expels a decision in the case, after which the test case to compel admittance of a child to the Dover school will come up in Supreme Court of New Jersey, with Senator Simpson of the Hall-Mills case fame as attorney for the child. The reports given out in the daily newspapers the conflict did not start over a disagreement between the Baptist and Methodist colored churches in Toms River. Upon a special investigation by a committee of United Panthers-the first church of any rivalry between the two churches.
The United Panthers offered to give the church an amount equal to the rent charged if the church would cancel the lease and in addition within ten days. The parents believe that if the teacher resigns it would make the fight much easier. All the parents are keeping their children from the Jim Crow school anything. The salary is said to be $100 per month.

Chinese Leader in Bordentown Talk
Chinese Leader in Bordentown Talk
Dr. Koo Says His Country's Plight Should Inspire the Negro
BORDETOWN, April 24—"The present situation in China should inspire the American Negro and oppressed groups the world over," declared Dr. T. Z. Koo in addressing an audience composed of students and teachers of the Bordentown Manual Training School, as well as white and colored townspeople. The distinguished visitor, who is representing in this country some fifty guilds, banks and commercial organizations of China, and who is one of the leaders of political thought in China, spoke along the lines of his article on the Chinese Nationalist movement which appeared in the New York Sunday Times.
He described the growth of national spirit in the Chinese republic and appealed for the sympathy and help of the Negro in America in behalf of that movement.
In part, he said: "The use of armed force in China by any of the powers is certainly not justified by present conditions. There is no antiforeign feeling in China as such, but merely a desire on the part of its people to redeem those rights which are theses by every moral law, but which have been stolen by the powers of the world. Retention by the United States of its naval and marine force in our country might easily bring matters to a standstill. But we would find itself at war without having declared it. And yet we are not discouraged. In fact, I think it should be an inspiration to your own people, the Negroes of this country, to follow the success of the Chinese group and to note their confident hope in spite of the difficulties that assail them."
Kao Koo paid high tribute to Dr. King of Gammon Seminary in Atlanta, who was a delegate some years ago to the World Student Christian Federation which met in Peking. No delegate from a foreign country was present. He impress on the affections of Chinese members, and the effect of his personality is still remembered in that country.
MAN SAID TO HAVE
MADE DEATH THREAT
Isaac Armstrong, 35, of 580 Jackson avenue, Jersey City, was placed under arrest last Wednesday afternoon for threatening the life of his wife, as the result of a trivial quarrel. Dr. matrolman Schafer of the Community Avenue Station took Armstrong into custody, but it required Sergeant James Jennings to marvel the tangle of conflicting statements regarding the near tragedy. At first Armstrong denied that he had fired at Mrs. Armstrong. A little later he insisted that she had fired at S. G. Warnick of 582 Jackson avenue, eye-witness of part of the attack, and seen Mrs. Armstrong fire two shots at the air while she screamed for help.
Sergent Jennings finally learned that the husband had first attacked his wife in their home, he took her to the police, volver out of a trunk and fired twice, she setized a stick and knocked the weapon out of his hand, Mrs. Armstrong grabbed the gun and shot it, then followed closely. There is, is said, he advanced, threatening to kill her. She screamed loudly and fired twice. Brian Schafer, at the corner of Communipaw and Jackson avenues, heard the commotion, and ran to the scene. The revolver and empty cartridges were found James Rutter locked for threatening life and held his wife as a material witness.

Aged Servant Wins $24,000 Back Pay
Amount Represents Salary for Her Lifetime Service in Family
MAYSVILLE, Mo., April 25.—Sarah Duncan, 65-year-old servant, was awarded $24,000 by a jury in Circuit Court here Wednesday afternoon from the H. Clay Duncan estate of Osborn, Mo. The jury deliberated about five hours, returning, with a 10-2 verdict. When the verdict was read in court many of those who had attended the trial gathered about the elderly woman and congratulated her. The woman, originally had sued for $80,000, the amount which she claimed was due her for life wages in the Duncan hold. Under the statute of 1865 interest, could not be compounded on money due through a verbal contract, and the petition of the plaintiff was amended, cutting the sum asked from $80,000 to $24,000, the amount claimed to be due her.
During the trial of the case the defendant, Mrs. Elizabeth Duncan, widow of Colonel Duncan, was placed on the stand and testified that no contract, either written or verbal, had existed between her husband and Sarab. Other witnesses included Mrs. Lulu Edwards of St. Louis, a daughter of Colonel Duncan, Mrs. Susan Thompson of Portland, a daughter of Mrs. Naunie Lyons of Kansas City, a third daughter; the Rev. Frank Loose of Liberty, Mo, and T. R. Shields of Kansas City, Mrs. Lina Gosnell of Pasadena, Cal., although present at the trial, did not testify.

The cupers directed by Prof. Barnett, the choirmaster. Rev. C. H. Steptoea is the pastor.

The basketball game between Harlem Five and the Athenians (Greeks) of Baltimore at Richmond Market Armory Easter Monday night was before an audience at home team to get roped for their home team to get roped for Gotham boys who overwhelmingly defended the Greeks early in the season at the New Albert Auditorium. The strategy of Coach Howard Wright was deserving of great credit for taking an opportune adder to the Gotham's great star, "Stretch" Grant. The coach substituted Morgant's shifty star, young Sheffey, in the place of Dr. Bill Harris, who was forced to be at home, due to the illness of his wife. The shift was made by the Greeks downed the Gothamans to the tune of 33 to 23. Sheffey accepting twenty-one chances and making nineteen baskets, which has never been surpassed by any basketball player here this season. He was only assisted by Simpson. He was barely a whole unit of the Greeks. Wheatley, the jumping center, also pooled seven points.
The play of Gotham was in every way good, but the audience could see the lack of their great strength. "Stretch" Grant, Garcia, Hubbard, Mondell and Moton played a great show for their team, but could not overcome the strength of the Greeks, which was wonderful that night. Attorney Robert Macbeth, manager, Howard Wright, coach, "Duck" Gibson, referee.

Through Co-operation
By working together these results have been accomplished, and the
future promises even greater prosperity—
BECAUSE we know that we can now depend upon the business ability
of ourselves—
BECAUSE we want and are willing to make sacrifices and work hard
for economic independence
BECAUSE our eyes are being ‘opened to new opportunities whereby we
can profit.

A Community Problem _.
PROPERTY OWNERS IN HARLEM HAVE BEEN OBLIGED
FOR YEARS TO GO OUTSIDE OF THE COMMUNITY FOR
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE — FOR THIS THEY HAVE BEEN
PAYING ENORMOUS BONUSES AND WERE OBLIGED TO MEET
EXCESSIVE PAYMENTS, AS A RESULT OF WHICH LOSS OF
PROPERTY WAS FREQUENT.
° ° .
Consider This Opportunity
NOW, for the first time, we, the people of Harlem, have formed our -
own Mortgage ‘Compeny to meet this condition. The company is as-
sured of plenty of desirable business, because it plans to lend its money
at such cost and terms as to defy all competition.
We thereby are able to render double service — A benefaction to our
éommunity and a profitable investment to our stockholders.
The success of the company is further assured because it is in the
hands of a Board of Directors composed of experienced financial, real
estate and business men and women of high standing,

We Can't Suppress News
THE FOLLOWING EDITORIAL is not our own; but it states so many of the things that we, from time to time, are called upon to say much better than we could possibly say them, that we see no reason why we should not adopt it and pass it along to you in the same style that we would if it were our own. Reading it cannot help but make for a better understanding between The Amsterdam News and its readers and advertisers.
WE CAN'T SUPPRESS NEWS
People are continually coming to newspaper office with articles they want published, or to keep something from being published. Usually they know much more than the newspaper man about what should or should not printed, and their modesty does prevent their telling him about it. Or they take it for granted that all the necessary to get something, or something out, is to make known to they want. Because they subscribe the paper or carry advertising in it, feel free to dictate its policy in threat of "stopping the paper" or continuing their advertising.
Such people forget that each of them is only one of thousands who are ming the publication, and that the tands may wish to read the very s the one wants suppressed. They get that a newspaper owes fair treatment to all its readers, and that it trays its trust if it "plays favorite printing news about some people withholding it about others. When they have done something that does reflect on themselves, they ask paper to protect their families or from publicity they have brought them, although it is as much the m

people of Washington today, tonight, might not be able to appreciate these modern verses any more than they. The old gentleman would certainly be shocked trying to find beauty in the idea of selling his "fine clothes to the Jew" for $1.50 and investing the proceeds in bootleg gin. Had the $1.50 been spent for ham and eggs or coffee and waffles to sustain life, perhaps the "best" folks of Washington might find the same poetic beauty in "Fine Clothes to the Jew" that they find in Committee Cullen's "I Have a Rendezvous With Life." However, as young Hughes has the admiration, support and encouragement of the Nordic group, who, perhaps, know more about real poetry and poetic beauty than our group, he should give little concern to the "unaccented" few of Washington who fail to measure up to his standards of poetic appreciation.
C. G. ALLEN DISCUSSES
FOLK MUSIC IN ARTICLE
Cleveland G. Allen, student of Negro folk lore, has contributed in the May issue of Current History Magazine an article on Negro music, in which he traces the historical development of folk music from its earliest stages to the present. The article discusses the classification of the Negro folk songs, giving examples of each type.

Uncultured
Washingtonians
LANGSTON HUGHES, youthful poet, and son of the late John Mercer Langston, has bereated the "frost" people of Washington as uncultured, and not loyal supporters of the young geniuses of their race. Mr. Hughes' bitter criticism would be regrettable, but coming from one so nexperienced in years and social contact it loses much of its sting. The young man seems peeved because the "uncultured" Washington folk, despite their love and gratitude for Lord Dunbar's poetry, fail to recognize the beauty and mastic harmonies in Jean Founer's "Crus" and his own "T: Worry Lines" and "The Cliffs" to the Jew.

paper's duty to print the news as it was the duty of the offender to protect those near to him by doing nothing that would cause them pain or sorrow. He tries to shift the responsibility to the paper instead of recognizing his own.
One individual's conduct brings him into contact with prohibition officers. He has read scores of like stories; but when his appears he cancels his advertising contract. Another has an unfortunate incident at his home that injures someone else and arouses outside interest. He cancels his advertising contract when the news is printed. A third violates a traffic rule, and when the public is told about it he stops taking the paper, "Which is a yellow rag, anyhow." None of them considers that no reputable newspaper attempts to sell its circulation or advertising space on anything but merit, that it believes it is giving money's worth, and that the cancellation is doing more damage to the person who loses the space or the paper than to the publication, if he needed it in the first place.
A newspaper must have and follow rules governing the character of the matter it publishes in its news columns. The best rule we know anything about is to print whatever has news value, no matter who is concerned in it, without fear or favor. We aim to print all the news that is fit to print, just as we aim to make our paper worth the subscription price and our advertising worth the space rate. It it's news, we must print it. And we must decide what is news.—Marietta (Ohio) Times.
WE CAN'T SUPPRESS NEWS without eventually either suppressing ourselves, or being suppressed. To live and prosper we must be fair to all of our readers, both great and small, rich and poor, educated and uneducated. We have no axes to grind with any individual or organization. We have no chip on our shoulder, except a desire to serve.

(From the Daily News)
Urban League's Report on Industry
Employment improved somewhat during March, the advance coming late in the month. The iron and steel plants, in which a large proportion of Negroes are employed, showed improvement in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Prolonged unemployment periods in the West were eased and the month closed with brighter prospects for April. Conditions Among Negroes. Reports from our associates in scattered parts of the United States tell of unemployment and curtailment in working hours almost without exception. This caused a general restlessness, with the result that workers moved back and forth among cities within easy reach of each other. Baltimore and Columbus, usually fruitful cities for Negro workers and among the last to feel the depression, reported large numbers out of work.
Specific reasons were given for the shortage of work among Negroes in certain cities. For instance, in Springfield, Ill., mine lockouts or strikes have forced some 5,000 men out of work, of whom 225 were Negroes; and in Florida work originally done by Negroes is being taken from them and given to whites; and wages have been cut. In Milwaukee the retirement of colored
THREE NEW K'S
A Famous Negro Violinist
By CLARENCE CAMERON WHITE
LUDWIG VON BEETHOVEN, the great composer, whose death occurred one hundred years ago and whose music still lives as perhaps the greatest ever penned by human hand, has special interest for the Negro musician, due to the fact that associated with him, both as a friend and as musician, was the Negro violinist, George Augustus Poligreen Bridgetower, son of an African father and German or Polish mother.
THESE three K's are correct, and they are Komrades in the West Chester Normal College tight for free speech. These three will stand or fall together; when Kerlin and Kinneman are kicked out, the Constitution is thrown out with them. The Constitution of the United States was made to defend just such liberties as Kerlin and Kinneman were exercising.
I know these men. They are my friends, and the friends of all of us, because they believe in justice and equality of opportunity for all.

Bridgetower made his first public appearance as a violinist in London at the age of 19. He became a great favorite in the English capital and was long in the service of the Prince of Wales, afterwards George IV. In 1802 Bridgetower obtained leave of absence to visit his mother at Dresden and to use the house of Toplitz and Carlsbad, where leave was obliged that 'he might spend a few months in Wien, his playing in public and private at Dresden had secured favorable letters of introduction.
They gained him a most brilliant reception in the highest musical circles of the Austrian capital. Beethoven, to whom he was introduced by Prince Lichnowsky, readily secured his aid in the public concert. The date of this concert was probably May 24, 1802, when Bridgetower was about 24 years old. The principal item on this program was the now famous "Kreuzer Sonata." This masterpiece had just been completed by Beethoven and was played for the first time at this concert by Bridgetower, with the composer at the piano. Bridgetower, when he was 18 years, talking with Mr. Thirlwall about Beethoven, told him that at the concert the Sonata, Op. 47, was composed he and the composer were constant companions, and that the first copy bore a dedication to him, but before he departed from Vienna they had a quarrel about a girl, and Beethoven then dedicated the work to Rudguth Kreutzer.

Organized Labor.
Here and there were incidents showing relationship with organized labor. In Baltimore, the Young Workers' Labor Party has been especially active—two colored speakers appearing at its open forum.
One-half of the brick masons of Lexington, Ky., who received a raise from $1.25 to $1.50 per hour, were Negroes.
In Philadelphia, through the Armstrong Association there, the co-operation of colored employees was sought and secured in a reebot labor dispute between the Manufacturers' Association and the labor forces of that city.
FRANK GIBSON GIVES
$8,000 TO ALMA MATER HARPERS FERRY, W. Va. April 25. The largest single gift made to Storer College by a Negro man just come to the institution. It will amount to almost $8,000, and is made possible by a bequest from Frank Gibson, a former student of the college. A hard working, frugal man, he denied himself that his small savings might grow and that he might thus pay a debt of gratitude to the school which started him on the upward path.
LIVINGSTONE SEEKS
$250,000 ENDOWMENT
Dr. J. Edward Mason, financial secretary of Livingstone College, passed several days here last week in the interest of the $250,000 endowment drive of Livingstone College, that the college needs that amount for new buildings and other equipments and to meet its growing demands.

ton. I have looked into the honest faces of those boys and girls and have observed their cagerness to get the truth from any source, even though it contradicted the myths and traditions of their elders. Their brains are not yet concreted and hardened like the brains of some of the officers and trustees of the college.
Negro Violinist
AMERON WHITE
OVEN, the great composer, one hundred years ago and was perhaps the greatest ever special interest for the Neet that associated with him, i.e., the Negro violinist, bridgetower, son of an Afri-lish mother.
The subscriptions for the concert amounted to 1,140 florins and the list of patrons was headed by the English envoy.
Bridgetower's father was known in England as the "African Prince." How the violinist's father got to Blala in Poland, where Bridgetower was born, or whether his mother was a German or a Pole, remains a mystery which has not been cleared up.
A letter written by Abt Vogler dated London, June 6, 1790, says: "Last Wednesday, June 2, I attended a concert in Hanover Square, where two young heroes contested with each other on the violin. The two played concertos alternately and both won the warmest praise. One of the violinists was Clement of Vienna, eight and one-half, and the other Bridgewater of Africa, ten years of age."
During Bridgetower's residence in England he played before George III and his court at Windsor Castle. The passport issued to him in Vienna for his return to London describes him as "A musician, native of Poland, age 24 years, medium height, clean shaven, dark brown hair, brown eyes and straight, rather broad nose." He received the degree of Bachelor of Music from the University of Cambridge in 1811. Bridgetower died in London at the age of 78 years (some say 80) honored throughout all Europe.
Library Notes
Over 300 persons listened to an original and successful children's program at the 135th Street Library on Saturday evening at 8:30. Miss Roberta Bosley, who staged the concert, dramatized six, of Dunbar's poems, which were acted that night. A group of boys dressed as farmers, ranging in age from 9 to 11, sang five spirituals with a deal of feeling, under Miss Bosley's direction. The whole program was well coached and tastefully selected.
Perhaps the most interesting number, for certainly it brought the audience, to its feet, was that done by little 4-year-old Jessica Clement Phonon and 6-year-old Michele Robinson and who lived in Dunbar's "Poet and the Baby." Other poems which Miss Bosley dramatized were: "In the Morning," "Life," "A Lullaby," "Little Brown Baby" and "When Malinda Singa."
The closing number, "Walked
Children, Children," was in pantomime form. There were about
thirty-five children in it, ranging
in age from 4 to 11.
Miss Bosley has been employed

for over two years and a half,

LETTERS
They are the impressionable material out of which "futures" are molded. Such traces of race and class narrowness as may be found among them have been made on them by the control of their mediaeval-minded elders. Sometimes I think the world could be quickly saved if the young people were not compelled to learn certain things against the superstitions of their gathers, not only in West Chester but in all the earth. And may the God of Gideon forward their fight. This Kerlin type of white man—often means what he says in politics and church, and who will not compromise with injustice nor He about his religion—is our pressing need and ultimate hope in both national and international affairs.
Kerlin was proven right in Virginia, because the Supreme Court of the nation ultimately freed the twelve colored men against whose threatened execution by the State of Arkansas Kerlin was Kerlin, who will be proven right in this West Chester case by the continued progress of the ideals for which he is sacrificing.
Hayes Concludes
American Tour
Roland Hayes' last appearance
in New York until the fall of
1928 was Friday night in Carnegie Hall, when the noted tenor
sang, as usual, to a sold-out
house; and, as usual also, his
program was enthusiastically
received.
The intervening months will
be spent in Europe, where occa-
sional recitals will be given.
In his recital Friday evening
he was accompanied by William
Lawrence.
A benefit concert for the Harlem Museum of African Art was offered Wednesday night by Paul Robeson and Lawrence Brown in Town Hall, H. T. Burleigh, J. Rosamond Johnson and Mr. Brown were represented as arrangers in the spirituals, and Messrs. Burleigh, Johnson and Will Marion Cook were the composers of the dialect songs in the second group.
The nucleus of the Harlem Museum is a collection selected from the Blondiaud-Theatre Arts of African Art recently exhibited at the Museum, placed on exhibition in Harlem as a first step in the project of the sponsoring committee, through the co-operation of the Public Library, with the 135th Street Branch as to place of exhibition. J. E. Nail is chairman of the committee; Mrs. R. Osgood Mason, vice-chairman, and Alain Locke, secretary.
"Seven Last Words"
Presented at Salem
"The Seven Last Words of
Christ," by Theodore DuBois'
were presented Thursday eveni-
ment at Salem M. E. Church by
the chapel toward the direction of
Prof. Rudolph Grant. Abbie
Mitchell, soprano, who was
to have appeared on the program as
a guest artist, was unable to
near. In her stead, Jessie A.
Zackery, soprano, appeared, sing-
ing as her first selection "Ah
Fors a Laut," from La Traviata.
Near the close of the program
she sang "Were You There?" by
Burleigh, and "Every Time I
Feel the Spirit," arranged by
Lawrence Brown.
As a whole—and without taking into consideration the vast amount of work required, probably under unfavorable conditions, both as regards material and time—the rendition of "The Seven Last Words" was mediocre, though not in the extreme. Possibilities only were revealed. The Fourth Word, "My God, My God, Why Hast Thou Forsaken Me?" by the baritone soloist, was the most outstanding bit of music by either soloists or chorus. Miss Olive Hopkins, soprano, and George E. Simmons, tenor, did not, seemingly, reach their own previous standards, Mrs. S. McGill-Greendage, contrataire, rendered splendid support
"I Waited for the Lord," Mendelsohn, with Miss Rush Green and Mrs. Christine David, as solist, was the most beautifully rendered choral number on the entire program. The only probable exception would be "Been a Listenin'" an excellent arrangement by Prof. Grant. Both these last came during the second part of the program, following the rendition of the oratorio.
The remaining part of the program included selections by Leonard Matthews, organist, and by the male chorus.
Compositions of William G. Still were among those of the five modern composers present-
ed by the New School of Social Research, 465 West Twenty-third street, at a recital there last Saturday week. Mr. Still's dissections—three dialect selections—were beautifully interpreted by Jessie A. Zackery, soprano.
The Creole Six, comprising five female vocalists and a male pianist, will give a half-hour program, consisting of ensembles and vocal pieces from opera harolodies and spirituels, at WGBS, Gimbel Brothers, tomorrow evening, beginning at 8:30. They all range from 17 to 20 years in age, the youngest being still a high-school student.
The group, already well known in radio, is composed of two sets of sisters and a sister and brother. Helen Wallace, a student of the Damrosch school, is soprano soloist and director and arranges all the songs for the five voices. The female quintet is unusual in that it has a real bass. Dorothy Walker. John Cralle, the accompanist, is a pupil of Dr. Melville Charlton, the noted organist. The other members are Jean Wallace, Pauline Cralle and Eldy the Walker.
Ina Grange presents and accompanies her pupil, Celia Lewis Lacey, lyric soprano, in a recital at the Renaissance House, 138th street, and Seventh avenue, on Monday evening. May 2. The assisting artist will be Andrades Lindsay, pianist.
Nell Hunter appears in a song recital on Sunday afternoon, May 8, at Grace Congregational Church West, 133rd street.
At present Miss Hunter is on a concert tour in Virginia and West Virginia.

Marguerite Avery, soprano, accompanied by Novella McCrory, will give a recital on Sunday afternoon, May 15, at Imperial Auditorium.
Hemby's Recital
In a five-part program on Sunday afternoon. Ernest Hemby, encomended his debut before a capacity audience at the Grace Congregational Church, West 129th street. His accompanist was Edward Markett.
"Il Neilge" ("Tis Snowing"). "My Menagerie." "The Roadside Fire" and "My Native Land were by far his best numbers. Mr. Hemby's stage carriage is one of ease. His voice, showing a surer and more melodic trend when used in a high or low, rather than in a middle range, is to be praised. He has a tendency, however, when pronounced plainissimo, promptly too for the size of the room and the audience. As a young singer, there seems to be a favorable future for him. At present Mr. Hemby is a pupil of Prof. Caska Bond, 50 St. Nicholas avenue. Before coming to New York he studied at Howard University.—T. E. B.
Our Eyes
DR. R. J. FOSTER
OPTOMETRIST
Eyesight of Young Children
EDUCATION is dependent to such a large extent upon vision that it is highly important that children have good eyesight. It is, therefore, requisite that eyesight conservation in schools be preceded by proper care of the preschool child in the home. In fact, eyesight conservation should begin in infancy and be observed all through life. One authority states that "the time to begin to preserve eyesight is when the baby is born."
The first thing is to guard against infection of the eyes of the newborn babe. The disease of "babies' sore eyes" is easily prevented by putting drops in the eye. This is required by a law in this State governing physicians and midwives. The eyes are not fully developed at birth. For this reason it is necessary to take particular precaution with the eyes of children. For the first two or weeks of life the best methods to sleep in a darken room. After that the eyes should be fairly light in the daytime, but when the baby is in it or when he is taken outdoors the eyes should never be exposed to the direct glare of the sun, and when in his crib his face should be turned away from the light.
Baby carriages for use outdoors should have adjustable tops which are lined with some dark-colored material. Keep the top up on sun-shiny days. Don't use snow-white robes over the carriage. An intolerable glare is reflected from it into the baby's eyes.
Another common cause of eyestrain in babyhood is the habit of hanging a rattle or other toy from the top of the baby carriage. These are suspended so as to dangle in front of the child's eyes. This is a bad habit and should never be permitted. Cross eyes can result from this.
practice also. The toys used by children should be big and clear. Letters on blocks should be so large that the child can read them with heavy strain whatever, and at. al. that requires close inspection in order to be enjoyed is not the proper baby's toy. And again in the kindergarten children are taught sowing, weaving and the like, but these tasks are harmful to such young eyes. Remember—the child who starts out in life handicapped by poor or painful vision has a constant and losing struggle.
Attorney Hayne Presses Toms River School Case
The legal fight against the attempt to exclude Negro school children of Toms River, N. J., from the regular public school is being vigorously pressed by Attorney Eugene R. Hoyne, according to the latest report he has made to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. In his report, Mr. Hayne writes: "Have just received service of demurre to writ of mandauan. Such pleading has been abolished in New Jersey. I am moving to strike out pleading and have judgment absolute on the writ at the opening of the court at Trenton the first day of May next. The pleandings in the case must be printed within the next ten days."
In addition to the writ of mannus, issued by a Supreme Court justice, which Mr. Haynes is seeking to have made absolute, thus compiling the School Board to reinstate the children. Mr. Haynes has proceeded against the School Board directly. On this action he reports to the N. A. A. as soon as he proceeds against the School Board before the Commissioner of Education I am advised by the Assistant Commissioner that demand has been made by the Commissioner upon the two Boards of Education to answer the petition heretofore filed by me within ten days from the 15th day of this April."

"Man's Common Lot"
I WALK beneath the clouds,
Darkness by way enshrens,
So that I cannot see;
Mine eyes are filled with tears,
My heart with doubts and fears,
And with anxiety.
Sometimes my path is steep;
Sometimes through valleys deep;
And, as my soul inspires,
Mountains that intervene,
Stand ominous between
Me and my fond desire.
Wecary am I of life,
Its constant toll,
Great burdens press me deep,
I cry, in my despair,
Is it my lot to wear,
Always a thorny crown!
But comes a thorny crown,
Against the despair,
Comfort and relief,
To return to the land,
And know the truth,
Is but much common law.
