The grand exalted ruler made what was generally conceded by the 2000 Filks present as the most brilliant speech of his whole career, and after he had finished, he was a remarkable demonstration, the cheering lasting fully five minutes.
NOT HERE FOR POLITICS.
"I am not here to play politics," said Mr. Wilson, in opening his remarks. "I am here to pay homage to loyal patriotic Elks, and if there be any here who are not, then I write their faults on the sand and their virtues on tablets of love and memory."
As authorized by the chairman of the banquet committee, Louis B. Williams, the purpose of the dinner was to awaken interest in the past exiled rulers' councils, to the end that the councils in the various States may become the deciding body for questions which might arise within that State, thus giving the rather body some official standing.
He then drifted back to the New York convention situation without directly mentioning the subject. "This is the first Grand Lodge Convention Committee that has never invited me to confer with them." And the stormy peerel in Elkdom. "I know the law; if they don't, I do. Let them read articles 5 and 6 page 6, 7, 8 and 9, of the Grand Lodge law and they will get all the information that they want. I shall stand pat until the appointed time has come."
"If someone else can get the votes for the head of this order, I will be the first one to shake his hand. But I will ask of that someone, what has he done; and he must be someone who has given service; someone who has accompanied something. I know of no place that I enjoy coming to better than I do New York. Give me credit, instead of throwing bricks; I defy any man to say that Finley Wilson was anything other than a square shooter."
In conclusion, Mr. Wilson recited, in a forceful manner, Longfellow's "Ship of State," likening the words to the situation of Elkdom and New York.

Mrs. M. Gordy Seeking Divorce
Action Follows Raid Thursday by Boulin Detectives
Miss Nora Bell Smith, a transient guest at the Emma Ransom House, 175 West 137th street, was found in a room with T. William Gordy, husband of Mrs. Margaret Gordy, when apartment 67 at 108 West 141st street was raided about 1:30 a. m. Thursday by operatives of the Boulin Detective Agency, 110 East 125th street. Until Sunday, Gordy is said to have lived at the Y. M. G. A., 181 West 135th street. His wife was a witness to the raid.
Mrs. Gordy is the niece of the late W. David Brown, funeral director, and conducts the business in company with her sister at 2315 Seventh avenue. Through her attorney, John Bradshaw Thorne, 101 West 135th street, she has started suit in the Supreme Court for absolute divorce, naming Miss Smith as co-respondent.
Miss Smith, who once lived at 666 St. Nicholas avenue, came to New York from Hattlesburg, Miss. and is said to be the daughter of a prominent family in that state.
A bottle of whiskey and a bottle of gin were found in the room, and the woman admitted having been drinking, and confessed also to intimacy with Gordy, the detectives said.
The raided flat is owned by Easley Stevens, who disclaimed all knowledge of the affair. Gordy said he rented the room for the night for $2 from Mrs. Ruth Brown, who told the detectives that the lovers had represented themselves as man and wife.

MARION ANDERSON'S RECITAL AT SALEM CHURCH NOT GIVEN
Singer on Hand When Scheduled Time Arrived Mixup as to Agreement — "Causes Beyond Her Control," Manager Announces
What was intended, before going abroad, to be the last New York concert of Marion Anderson, nationally famous contralto, at Salem M. E. Church, Seventh avenue and 129th street. Thursday evening, turned out to be a very regrettable affair. The concert was sponsored by the Choral Art Society Glee Club, under the direction of John M. Johnson, 252 West 143rd street.
According to the contract entered into between the artist and Johnson, one-fifth of the agreed amount was paid when the contract was signed and the remainder was to have been paid immediately before the concert, which was scheduled to begin at eight-thirty. At the time for payment arrived and passed no money was forthcoming, and the audience grew impatient.

"Whitewash" Capt. of Linseed King
Magistrate Dismisses Technical Charge of Manslaughter
Capt. John Rohwelder, white, of the ill-starred ferry launch Linseed King, reported dying of tuberculosis contracted in the icy North River when the launch sank last December, was exonerated Friday of blame for the death of fifty-five or sixty men who perished in the disaster.
In the case was called in Homicide Court for the sixteenth time. Frederick J. Sullivan of 51 Chambers street, the accused navigator's counsel, told Magistrate Corrigan that his client still was unable to attend court and probably never would be arraigned, for he was growing steadily worse. He is an upstate hospital.
Magistrate Corrigan ordered the trial to proceed under a statute providing for such action under the circumstances. James Trotter of 300 West 151st street, one of the

Enough money had been realized from the sale of the tickets to pay the artist, Johnson said, but the person with the money—a Glee Club member whose name was not given—failed to appear.
William King, accompanist and manager for Miss Anderson, told Johnson he would agree to proceed with the concert if he would get some responsible person to go on his note until Friday noon.
At 10 o'clock the audience became very restless and many people left the church. Johnson went out to "see what he could do." A half hour elapsed, and an expression of some kind to the audience became increasingly necessary. The people were leaving in great numbers. The Glee Club offered no explanation, but King addressed the audience.
"Miss Anderson is very sorry," he said. "She wishes to say that due to causes not within her control she cannot appear. It is not the fault of either the church, its officials, the Glee Club or ourselves. We are indeed very sorry."
Members of the audience then crowded around the members of the Glee Club, demanding the return of their money. According to witnesses, a man smashed one of the club members on the jaw and sent him sprawling on the floor. The church was throws into great confusion. Johnson returned, and gave part of the admission back to the people and gave tickets to the rest of them. These tickets may be redeemed, Johnson said, by applying to him at 252 West 143d street. Although the artist did not sink, the church was paid for before the concert, Johnson said. While in New York Miss Anderson was the guest of Bertha Des Verney, music teacher, 253 West 150th street, where a reception was given for her late Thursday night.
Clayton of Edgewater, N. J., a boat expert; Cornellus H. Smith of Rutherford, N. J., a steamboat inspector; Detective James Donnelly of the West 100th street station and other witnesses testified for the accused captain.
"They agreed that the boat was capable of carrying more passengers than it had aboard at the time of the disaster, that the wreck was caused by the craft striking a huge ice cake and that it was not the fault of Capt. Rohwelder. It was testified also that he gave himself up promptly to the police when he heard he was wanted. Magistrate Corrigan dismissed the technical charge of suspicion of homicide.
"Capt. Rohwelder is 29 years old and at the time of the accident lived at 635 Pelham avenue, Jas

CHICAGO, IL, May 30.—In Judge
Harry A, Lewis’ municipal court-
room last Tuesday afternoon a
wealthy white American begsed
the court to penalize his beautiful
white wife because she had been
associating with Prince Kojo To-
valon Houenon-of Africa, The
court pointblank refused.
“You'll have to show me," Judge
lewis insisted. “You'll have to
show mie that this Prince Kojo

fore 1 will decide that there was
anything wrong in Mrs. Zulme
Knowlton’s association with him.”
“It may shock sensibilities at
present,” he drove the point home,
‘if respectable Women entertain
and are entertained by colored
men, but... a few years
from now it may be the thing to
do! I do not know, Because the
prince is colored does not take him
out of society!”
For two years the name of Mrs.
Knowlton, social leader in Chica-
Bo's wealthy Gold Coast colony.

Prince Kojo. When Kojo sailed

in 1923. ceased his $290 a month
alimony payments as Mrs, Knowl-
ton’s ctientions tq the prince be-

neer was cited before Judge Lewis
to show cause why he should not
be heid in contempt for failure to
pay the stipulated alimony.

A NEW BEAUTY BATH
SECRET—Startling
in IMMEDIATE Results
t Yau s0uns gut or woman
I of today wants immediate
results after the use of
some beauty preparation. She
doesn’t want to wait days or
weeks forsome sign ofimprove-
ment in her skin. What she is
seeking is a beauty aid that
immediately after she uses it,
her skin will show the benefit
of her care.
Just imagine stepping into a
bath, soft as eiderdown, bath-
ing, then stepping out and
finding that your skin is soft
and smooth as rare velvet!
. That is the immediate effect
of a Linit Beauty Bath on the
skin. :
Merely dissolve two or more
handfuls of Linit (the well-
known scientificlaundry starch
sold by all grocers) in warm
water, bathe as usual, using
your favorile soap, step out and
dry off—and then feel your
skin—soft and satiny smocth!
Why Linit is Perfect
For Bathing
Skin is like a fine fabric. It
must be given the same care
that a rare piece of Gothic
Velvet would be given. Fine
preparations must be used—
preparations that are free from
hard mineral particles, Linit is
VERY IMPORTANT
The fact tnat LINIT is sold by
all grocers as a high class
laundry starch and is also
recommended for use as a
remarkable beauty bath.may
scem rather far-fetched to
some women — however. the
statements made above zre
not mere claims, but are
backed by iesding chemists
and dermatouogists, and the
use of LINIT as a beauty bath
is a common practice among
fashionable women ana cin-
ema stars.
Regardless of all this—
you are the judce of whether
'@ LINIT bath will give the re-
sults as stated above. LINIT
is so economical that at least
you should give it a trial. Let
the resuits speak for them-
selves.

Makes Powder
Unnecessary
On the average, women use
too much powder after bathing.
They usually dab it on in spots
and then the poresoften become
clogged—BUT—after a Linit
Bath, there is left.on the skin,
a thin coating of powder that
is evenly spread on all parts
of the body. This thin coating
of Linit absorbs perspiration,
is resistant to irritation and
gives the skin a soft, smooth,
velvety feeling.
When the skin is tender from
being chapped, or is excessively
dry from exposure to the sun,
it often becomes coarse and the
pores may enlarge. It is then
that hard water irritates the
skin. Buttwo or more handfuls |
of Linit in the bath water exerts |
a mild softening action on hard ,
water (without making it harsh-|
ly alkaline) that is less irritating
to infected skin.
“* Yon will notice that Linit ad-
heres well—never comes off
onthe clothing—~ eliminates
shine on the face, and absorba
perspiration; also that when’
Linit is added to the bath, it
produces a creamy “feel” to the’
water which makes ‘it leas irris

While he was doing time on the chain gang under the most ruthless of guards, Lowman said the hard-boiled guard knew he was innocent and treated him very kindly, but was obliged to tell tales of brutality over him, not only to keep his job, but to save his life. He would have been made a trusty, but the ball and chain was kept on him by the guard to prevent him from being lynched, he said. Lowman was later removed to the pententiary at Columbia for safe keeping.
N. J. Frederick, Columbia's fearless Negro attorney, obtained Low man's release Feb. 23, and he came immediately to Philadelphia, the home of his other children, Dozier, Lester, Birdie, and Bess. Except for his watch, the old man lost everything he owned, including a new Ford car.
The Rev. W. M. H. Sledge, teacher of Hebrew at the Hebrew School, 248 West Seventeenth street, opened the meeting with prayer. Charles Seifert read a short history of Negro accomplishment, and pleaded for a superior race consciousness.

At once, I began to pick up an appetite, my cheeks filled out and my complexion became healthy looking and I gained 15 pounds in six weeks and am very thankful for what McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Compound Tablets did for me.

Remarks were then made by the delegates present, chief among whom were: J. Clifford Hawkins; Armond Scott. of Washington, D.C.; Pope B. Billups; James C. Carter, grand treasurer, of Richmond, Va.; W. H. Shand, of Philadelphia, Pa., and others.
At the close of the conference it was legislated to inform the lodges throughout the United States and South America that the intention of the New York committee was to hold the convention in New York City. in conjunction with the other States' Associations, regardless of the outcome of the proposed action of the grand exalted ruler to change the place of the convention.

THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT

66! HE telephone and the telegraph have de-
stroyed the art of writing love letters,
and modern courtship has lost its charm,”
is the opinion of Mrs. J. Borden Harriman in the
current issue of the Red Rook Magazine.
“There is something shockingly’ appalling in the
crudity. the coarse familiarity, the sheer slang and
vulgarity on the part of some supposedly in love to-
day.” writes this so¢ial Icader.
“Is she just in saying these things of our way
of doing. things? No doubt, she is a pupil of the
“old school.” But has she considered - the many
phases of the situation? No longer do we'get a
thrill out of riding in ahorse and buggy through
the park, or down the long lane; no longer does
the coy, demure maid drop: her handkerchief as she
passes a man—just to a‘tract his attention; no
longer do the “maids in love” have. chaperons: in
the room while they entertain their lovers.
In this age of jazz,.when youth is in revoit and
women have their freedom: we can afford to lose
some of the seriousness and tenderness of sentiment
and vet have the purest trpe of love—T.E. B.

Nurses Urged to
Fight Death Rate
HAMPTON INSTITUTE. \a-.
May 30.—“The fact that twice as
chiany Negroes as whites are dyluz
jach year. which means twice as
| nuch sickness apd . double the
suffering, as well as an enormous
loxx of man-power, indicates the
field for service presented to the
sraduates of the Hampton Train-
ing School for Nurses.” Dr. South-
gate Lee of Norfolk declared io his
address at its fourteenth com-
mencement. Dr. Lee has been
active in civic health betterment
movements in Norfolk, and recent:
jy made n plea, before the Inter-
racial ‘Commission in Atlanta for
a constructive health program for
all groups of the South.
Dr. Lee was introduced by Frank
W. Darling of Hampton, president
of the board of directors of the
Dixie Hospital and the Training
School for Nurses, who presited
during the exercises. — Louise
Stevens, a graduate of 1902, and
now nurse for the schools of Eliza-
beth City County, Va. described
the conditions under which the
first graduates of the school re-
celved their training. “The new
Dixic Hospital is the consummation
of the spirit of the old Dixie.” she
declared.
‘The class addrees was made by
Ruth Folly. After repeating the
Nightingale Pledge, the graduating
class was given diplomas by Dr.
George P. Phenix, vice-principal of
Hampton Institute. Throughout
the exercises references were nade
to the devotion for the Dixie Hos-
pital of the tate Albert Howe of
Hampton Institute, whose son, Dr.
Harry D. Howe, fs now dean of the
medicat faculty.
The graduating class roll fol-
tows: “Helen Lewis, Yorktown,
Va.: Ruth Holly, Philadeiphia, Pa.:
Aurelia Purdie. Phoebus, Va.;
Rosa Ford. Norfolk, Va.: Mary
Mundin, Englewood, N. J.; Lillian

folk, Va.
The Cook Says---
A fork or esx beater is just the
thing to use when trying to mix
flour and water. The even heat
frees the mixture from lumps.
In choosing a bam atwate run a
ciean knife into the knucxle and
center. If the blade co:nes out
clean and swells sweet, the ham
is good. If the knife comes out
smeared and greasy-looking and
with a strong odor; tie ham is
bad.
Are you heavy-handed when it
comes to using salt? Remember it
is the use of too much salt in the
‘ough that often makes bread

| ‘There is positively nothing that
will ald beauty more than plenty
‘good exercise in the open. And.
‘peculiar; as it may seem, the sim-
‘plest exercise is the best, and that
is WALKING. It js said that many
persons allow themselves to grow
stout and unshapely because of the
automobile. It Is a fact that mo-
toring has made walking go out of
‘style. People are defrauding them-
selves if they allow this to be the
case. If they.*however. once -start
walking for the seke of their health
and good Jools. they will surely re-
capture the enthusiasm for it and
ride for convenience only, not as
a substitute for pleasure walking.
Learn to Walk properly. The
wrong way will tire you and will
not give you tho proper benefit.
Walking is the best possible anti-
ote for fat. provided you don't
let your resultant appetite undo
the good the exercise has accom.
plished. Remember, if you, are
stout. you have cnough surplus fat
stored away to fall back on and
that you won't starve even though
you Tay ve huegry enough to cat
shoeleathez
‘Also ramember that excess fat is
an uphealthy condition and in re-
storing your health walking will
desiroy a posible cause of the fat.
Finally, remember that anyone of
any age can walk, and that ft fs
the most inexpensive and the cast
est form of exercise. If you com-
plain that you can't “go in” for
sports, have no swimming pools,
van't dance whgdbt music, can't
afford to jofn tJe “¥" or clubs
where tennis,¢ golf, basketball,
hockey and bowling are supplied,
haven't friends to join you in win-
ter or summer sports, or hare
reached years where your Algnity
will not permit you to be too youth-
ful in your tastes, still and always,
while you have your legs, you can
WALK.
Soon you will wonder why you
feel so much younger and better
and why rou are bringing. forth
comment from al! your friends on
your good looks. Exercise is re
sponsibie. Don’t waste time think-
ing It over, Start those long walks

No, that is ner literally irue. Monte Carlo is not cov-

Tt is in the Little principality of Monaco. which is ia a
region about zs wild and rock-bound as is. to be found

great precipices and mountain sides so steep that they

that rock around Monte Carlo and you'll realize that the

Land is expensive becatse Monaco is the playground
of the cream of the world’s wealth. The principality is
only cight square miles in extent, a litle over five thou-
san acres of ruck, yet there is perhaps more wealth to be
found here io the square inch than there is to the square
mile in the richest European country. Society, the clite

What Age to Marry?
Ja answer ta a questionaire sent
to ministers asking them what
they consider the best age for
marriage the ev. James B, Adams
of Brooklyn answered as follows:
“From my observance of many
marriages, 1 would say that the
best ace for a weman ig between
22 and 26. and for a man from 26
to 30, é
“A woman between the age of
22 and 26 ix old enough to know
what she Js doing. and young
enough to adopt herhelf to any
change fn elrcumstances which
marriage may incur. She ts younz
enough to Bear several children.
whercas the woman over thirty
seldom has more than one or two.
Ubelieve that a family should have
just ax many children as can be
supnoried. It is necessary for tle
furtherance of our race.
__"A Woman who- marries over 30
is not likely to be a companion to
her children. By the time they are
in their teens she has become
settled.
“Tho man should be at least, 26
before he marries, unless he has
f good business, which seldom is
the case vefore 26,

Retired Teacher Here on Visit
Prof. Sprott, of B. W. I., ls Guest of His Former Students in U. S.
Prof. William Sprott, who for 47 years was a teacher in the Chapel School, Basseterre, St. Kitts, arrived here on the S. S. Dominica on Sunday, morning. While here Mr. Sprott will be the guest of a committee made up of his former students now residing in the United States.
Dr. E. Elliott Rawlins, a former student of Mr. Sprott, is chairman of the committee. Richard E. Warner is responsible for its organization. He is the present vice-chairman.
Mr. Sprott, who is now 72 years old, first achieved fame in his native country for the militant attitude he assumed against the educational policies of the government, which were changed mostly because of his insistence.
His greatest service was rendered to the teachers of the colony. After a struggle, which lasted for more than 25 years, he was successful in 1920 in having legislation passed pensioning aged teachers in the schools.
The committee has arranged to have Mr. Sprott, who is now retired, travel throughout the United States visiting his former students. Other officers of the committee are: Albert E. MacDowell, secretary; Edgar E. Mercer, assistant secretary; Albert Taylor, treasurer; Henry C. Mathews, assistant treasurer. Mr. Sprott is at present the home guest of Mr. and Mrs. Richard E. Warner, 505 West 142d street. He is to return to his home early in September.

"Union's Cause Dearer Than Life"
Sleeping Car Organizer Forced Out of Jacksonville by Police
Headquarters of the Pullman Porters Union in this city was to day anxiously awaiting news as to the whereabouts and safety of Bennie Smith, organizer for the union, who was forced early in the day to flee the city of Jacksonville, Florida. Smith, who has been in the South for three months on an organization trip for the union, was forced from town early today, the union was informed. Letters from Smith to A. Philip Randolph, organizer of the union, made public today, told of attempts by Pullman Company officials to incite white people into violence against him. Appeals to the authorities for protection were of no avail. Smith wrote.
Late Thursday night, Mr. Randolph wired Smith telling him to leave Jacksonville if he felt the situation to be one of imminent danger. Mr. Randolph was unable to say whether Smith left town of his own volition or not. The fact he has not wired the union was cause for great fear at the union offices.
Smith wired on May 22: "Am mindful of grave seriousness of situation and personal danger. Conscientiously feel Brotherhood cause is so righteously important that a firm stand should be taken. Have decided to remain and meet the consequences. This means that I am willing to make the supreme sacrifice. Have sacredly dedicated my all to the Brotherhood's noble cause. Being constantly intimidated by Pullman officials. Please advise."
"Organizer" Randolph advised Smith to leave Jacksonville.

Winters' Pitching and Stevens' Work in Field Turn Back Cuban Stars
PHILADELPHIA. May 28.—The southpaw slants of "Nip" Winters, his ability to hit Oscar's pitching and Jake Stevens' agile work in the field were entirely too much for Alex Pompez's Cuban Stars and the Hilldale Club tucked away a 5 to 2 victory over the islanders at Hilldale Park.
In winning the contest, Winters ran his string of Saturday afternoon victories to four, which incidentally takes in all of the weekend games played at the Dabby ball lot this season. While the Stars collected seven safe hits, so effective was Winters' hurling that except for an error on the part of Warfield the Cubans would have been shut-out victims.
With Winters taking care of the pitching end, Jake Stevens, the York, Pa., youth, put in a busy day around shortstop and time and again came to Winters' rescue with his spectacular fielding. Stevens also applied the punch in the way of a two-base hit to left field that sent three runners over the plate and practically clinched the contest in the first inning. In this frame Warfield singled past Alfonso with one out, Judy Johnson drew a pass. Thomas flied out to Fabre and then Oscar decided to walk Washington and pitch to Stevens. Jake showed him his error by promptly socking a line double to left that unloaded the bases. Stevens was charged with two errors, but easily atoned for them by accepting ten of his twelve chances on many difficult tries.
When the visitors threatened a rally in the ninth inning and had runners on second and third, with two men out. Stevens went across second to take Alfonso's hard hit grounder with one hand and tossed him out at first for the final put out of the game.
Oscar, the Cuban spitball pitcher, hurled a steady game, but the Farby Daisies bunched their hits in two innings to put the game on ice.

"NIP" WINTERS BROUGHT THE BACON Lincolns Continue Slump Without Montalvo
WE are quite frank in saying that we are not entirely satisfied with the lack of aggressiveness shown by the New York Tennis Ass'n in lifting the game out of the dilemma it has been placed in, through the lack of tennis courts.
WE are satisfied that the leaders of the organization have the game at heart and are quite earnest in whatever efforts they have pursued thus far, but we cannot accept a one-way policy that gets us nowhere.
AND it is our opinion that the leaders are committed to the purchase plan only, failure of which seems to terminate further activities, so far as arts are concerned this season.
WE have no枪管 with the purchase plan if it can be put over with no detriment to the game, but to close our minds to any other plan that will allow us to carry on is a mistake.
THE Association must keep in mind that its most important duty is to see that the clubs function as tennis clubs. The disorganization of the clubs means disintegration of the association, and the clubs will become disorganized if they do not function as tennis clubs.
FAILURE to provide courts, whether they be bought grounds or leased grounds, will certainly disrupt the whole tennis structure in the Empire City, to the everlasting shame of New Yorkers.
No one would like to see tennis in New York City put on a permanent basis through the purchase of grounds any more than the writer, and we are prepared to do all within our power to bring long, but these lines, but we put out in that last issue the purchase of grounds of this time means going out of the community, due to the prohibitive cost of lots in the city.
We have heard about educating the players and fans into going out of the gym. This is a be careful theory, which we trust will be found practical later on, but to our mind the game is not sufficiently popular at this time for this move, which will snuck of an attempt to remove the sport from the reach of the rank and title of tennis players and leaders.
We must have courts in the neighborhood, where the boys and girls can look on and be entrapped into playing the game, and where the parents can see their children and learn the benefits that come from it, which will induce them to give us their support.
In doing this we will be buying the foundation for perpetuating the game by keeping alive the interest of the older heads and creating new interest in the younger ones.
We trust that all the tennis players and fans will attend the mass meeting called for Wednesday evening, June 1, at 25 West 13th street, at which time the women tennis champion will be gone into

WE have heard about educating the city. This is a beautiful theory, this move, which will smack of an attack of the rank and file of tennis players.

Francis Gives Opinion Relative to Tennis Courts Here
By ARTHUR E. FRANCIS
that we are not entirely satisfied with the lack by the New York Tennis Association in lifting the game placed in, through the lack of tennis courts.
The leaders of the organization have the game at best in whatever efforts they have pursued thus one-way policy that gets us nowhere.
The leaders are committed to the purchase plan to terminate further activities, so far as possible.
The purchase plan if it can be put over with no need to close our minds to any other plan that will stake.
In mind that its most important duty is to see tennis clubs. The disorganization of the clubs in the Association, and the clubs will become disorganized as tennis clubs.
Whether they be bought grounds or leasedrupt the whole tennis structure in the Empire of New Yorkers.
In New York City put on a permanent basis grounds any more than the writer, and we are power to help along those lines, but, as pointed out of grounds at this time means out-of-the-prohibitive cost of lots in the city.
Getting the players and fans into going out of the theory, which we trust will be found practical, is not sufficiently popular at this time for an attempt to remove the sport from the reach of players and players.
In neighborhood, where the boys and girls can play the game, and where the parents can benefit that come from it, which will support.
Using the foundation for perpetuating the game out of the older heads and creating new interest.
Players and fans will attend the mass meeting June 1 at 25 West 137th street, at which will be gone into.

Penn. Red Caps Stop Long Island Farmers
Timely hitting with men on base enabled the Penn Red Caps to win from the Farmers at Farmer Oval Saturday by a score of 8 to 1. The only run the Farmers were able to score was a Ruthian drive by Frank Mottey, the former St. John's College star, who played right field for the Glendalers. The Red Caps scored their first run in the third inning. Lindsey led off with a single and took second on Cuttingham's sacrifice bunt. Wiley was out, Heizler to Krumenacker, Lindsey going to third and a moment later he stole home.
The visitors scored two more runs in the fifth inning. Wilson started with a walk, advanced to second on Saunders' sacrifice bunt. Cuttingham singled to left and when Kinney let the ball get away from him, Wilson scored and Cuttingham pulled up at third. Wiley was out, Miller to Krumenacker. Pryor then doubled and scored Cuttingham. The score:

BACHARACHS TAKE SERIES
Lincoln Giants Still in Slump That Hit Them Playing Without Cuban
In winning the final game Sunday afternoon, May 29, at Protectory Oval, the Bacharach Giants, pennant winners of last season, coped the three game series from the Lincoln Giants. The final game was won only after ten hard innings of fighting. The score stood 2-2 when the Bees came to bat in their half of the tenth and Gisentaner had put out the first two batters when Oliver Marcel, former Lincoln Giants player, came to bat.
Marcell hit what should have been a single into left field but Scott let the ball get past him and Oliver made it to third. When the ball was relayed to Robinson, he made a throw to home plate which enabled the visitors to score the winning run. Then to make sure of victory, Chaney White hit a two bagger and Manager Dick Lundy scored him with another two-bagger. The final score was 4-2.
The Bacharachs had defeated the local team at Mt. Holly, N. J., on Saturday by a score of 6-3. And in the opening game Sunday they won by a score of 12-7.
The Lincoln are still in the throes of the slump which struck them when Montalvo was taken from the lineup and unless another outfielder is secured soon they will be so far from first place it will be impossible for the team to catch up. However, Manager John Henry Lloyd is not discouraged and expects to remedy the present defects by next Sunday when the Lincoln begin their second series with Hildale. The scores of Sunday's games were as follows:

By ARTHUR E. FRANCIS.
The contest for the Capt. Joshua Cockhorn Trophy, emblematic of State supremacy in tennis, should take on added interest this season and bring out the best team tennis seen around these parts in many a year.
Last year the first of the contests for the beautiful sterling silver trophy were staged, the games being between teams representing the States of New York and New Jersey, the former winning by the score of seven to one, but only after the most brilliant and spirited effort on the part of the Jerseyites, who had out all their first-line defence. This year we are pleased to tell our readers that a Pennsylvania association has been formed, making that State eligible, and they are planning to place a strong team on the courts in the race for the trophy.
The games this year will be played at Plainfield, N.J., on the courts of the Plainfield Tennis Club, under the auspices of the New Jersey Tennis Association, June 25 and 26.
The articles governing the contests for the cup require matches to alternate between cities in the three participating states, the first being held in New York, this year's contest in New Jersey, and next year's contest in Pennsylvania.
The trophy was given by Capt. Cockburn, through Dr. T. E. Hansen, president of the New York Tennis Association, after this paper had shown the need for such a contest to stimulate interest in interstate team tennis and as a further means of cementing the bonds

BRUCE FLOWERS. New Rochelle lightweight, added another victim to his already long string of victories by trouncing Eddie Elkins in every session on Monday night, a remo on Monday evening in a week ago. The bout was the main attraction and drew a large crowd, under favorable weather conditions. The white had no major game, but Bobby Nelson, former Holy Name club amateur boxer, made a credible showing by outpointing Andy Davis of the west side in a four-round tilt.
KID RASH, weighing 120 pounds, and Henry Catena, the veteran Greene County champion, batted to a fast eight-round draw in the feature bout at the Rockaway Beach Armory last Tuesday night. Rash was licked in the early rounds, and the fifth and sixth sessions that gathered him an even break from the judges. Ivan Hawes, Harlem lightweight, defeated Chick Hawes, Mayweather Jr. and eight-round winner. It was an interesting fight, with Hawes getting in the more effective punches.
NEWSPAPER reports from the Coast indicate that Jack Dempsey is again in his favorite role, "ducking." According to this information, Jack refused Siskin to fight Goffrey. The former champion slide stepped this proposition by demanding $200,000, which the Los Angeles promoter declined to give him. One thing, Jack hasn't forgotten some of the things that Jack Reamrs taught him.

Rumor Says Burke Will Direct Drama at Alhambra
Directed Artists at the New Lincoln Theatre and Scored a Sensational Success
Dame Rumor ran up Seventh avenue last week and brought with her the information that overtures have been made to Billie Burke to take up where he left off when he was called from 125th street after successfully introducing the drama at Mrs. Maria Downs' New Lincoln theatre.
Mr. Burke's fine work at the 125th street house laid the foundation for the presentation of the drama on a larger scale at the Lafayette Theatre. Present day critics know not that the people laughed "out of joy in the early days here, but they soon "got the drift" and the time came when they actually smashed the door of the Lafayette Theatre to see Walker Thompson and Abbie Mitchell in "Madam X"
A people with the tractic background of the Negro can and will eventually wake up to that strong love for the dramatic in shows, despite the assertion to the contrary of wisedeces whose only gift to Negro journalism is their wonderful play of words which we might here remark loses its effect with the masses because of their being unwilling to be forced to travel with a dictionary every time they attempt to read what those wise birds have to say.
Those glorious days that first saw Clarence and Ophelia Muse, Charlie Olden, A.

Other Big Acts Offered at Big Keith-Albee House Starting Monday
One of those arrangements of vaudeville locally suited to the huge stage auditorium of the Hip-poprome has been booked for the coming week. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Giraard head a singing and dancing ensemble of fifteen girl singers whose volume of harmony will fill the wide spaces of the huge music hall with melody. Agnes Cain Brown is the featured coloratura soprano.
Jack McLallan, with "Sarah" and Fred (Daniel) Sanborn in "Laughs, Tricks and Tunes," will offer song, dance comedy, roller skating, a telephone recital and varied entertainment. This is a hit turn of the sure-fire order. A fine "flash" act will be Wilbur C. Swearman and His "wreck Revue in a diversification entitled "A Little Bit of Everything." Swearman is the popular phonograph artist. He and his merry band specialize in syncopation. One of his stunts is raging the reeds by playing two and three Bollar clarinets at the same time. A featured number will be "Battleship-Kate." The Royal Gas-collipse will do juggling and equilibration, besides featuring "Teddy," the balancing dog. The Kitaros will open the show with an exhibition of Japanese dexterity.
Fred Kinsley will give a recital on the big organ and Julius Lenz Berz and his symphony orchestra will play modern popular music "Toytown" has been again augmented and has new Illiputian novelties for the boys and girls. A photo-drama, entitled "The Closed Gate" with Johnny Harron; a photo-comedy, and other film features will complete the bill.
Great Human Interest Story at the Roosevelt
The sacrifices that parents, especially mothers, will make for their children is vividly shown in "Mother," the brilliant F. O. B. production which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre for an engagement of three days. "Mother" is suggested by Kathleen Norris' story, a most human document of a typical American family whose prototype is probably your neighbor. There is nothing fictional to the theme—it is life's story enacted every day and every week and every month, and one leaves the theatre after viewing it with a more pronounced idea of the sacrifices, the hardships, endured by parents, and the burdens, though innocently, placed on fathers and mothers by children.

New Colored Company to Invade B'way Soon
Will First Be Given Tryout at One of the Harlem Theatres
An announcement of unusual interest to residents of Harlem comes from the office of Ernest Pollock, stage director, play reader and theatrical producer at 1882 Broadway. It states that rehearsals of an all-colored company of 28 actors and actresses has begun for a series of musical comedies to be given in this section of the city, the first public performance of which will be given within a few weeks.
Mr. Pollock's company will be a permanent organization, which, according to present plans, will present a new musical show every three weeks. Those productions which merit it will be moved down to a Broadway theatre following their Harlem engagement.
The first production, rehearsals for which are already under way, will be "Buenos Noches," which is described as a miniature "Rio Rita" and in which several Harlem favorites will have parts. Pollock himself wrote the book of this musical piece, the scene of which is set in Mexico, with the colorful costumes and scenery native to that country. Albert Hackett and Warburton Gilbert wrote the lyrics and music. Pollock, who has been connected with many of the outstanding successes of Broadway, including "Heil's Belle" and many vaudeville hits, is personally directing the production. The theatre in which the new organization will be soon and heard is to be announced shortly.
"Paying the Price" at the New Douglas Theatre
A picture that will entertain and still give the audience something to think about is "Paying the Price." the Columbia drama that will be shown for the first time in Harlem at the Douglas Theatre. The story concerns itself with the tragedy that comes into the lives of two young girls through their one visit to a notorious resort. The theme is not entirely new, but the unusual treatment that has been given it by Director David Selman lends to the picture a novelty that is refreshing.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Gordon and their two daughters live happily in a small town. Their experiences in life are simple. So when the minister of the little community preaches against the evils that are prevalent in the neighboring city, and the girls see how many persons go there, they wish to see it too, just once, and prevalon upon their father to take them. They are greatly thrilled with what they see, and when Al, one of the frequenters of the resort, makes their acquaintance through the guise of being a long forgotten friend of Mr. Gordon, they join him and his friend, Michael Donovan. While treating the unsuspecting Gordons to drinks in a cafe, Al and Donovan have the waiter put something into the drinks. They leave the father asleep at the table and drag the unconscious girls away.
wide fame by her marvelous portrayal in "Stella Dallas" is the typical American middle class mother in this picture, and it is universally agreed that it is her finest effort for the screen.

Lawren and More in New Play Partnership
Revues, Musical Comedies
Plays and Special Productions to Be Offered
Joseph Lawren and Lawrence
More have formed a partnership for the presentation of revues, musical comedies, plays and special productions.
The first venture under this new partnership will probably be a musical revue of a somewhat unconventional nature, which will be opened in a Greenwich Village theatre. Contracts will be signed within a day and the piece will go into rehearsal next week.
Mr. Lawren, who is president of the Theatre Realty Company, is widely known for the Lawren Theatre Studio, which he established several years ago in his residence at 51 West Twelfth street. Scores of unusual productions have been presented in this little theatre, all fostered and guided by Mr. Lawren. Many famous actors and theatrical people have appeared or congregated here in unusual events. Such organizations as the Lenox Hill Players have used this studio as a stepping-stone to a more solid place in New York's theatre heart. Mr. Lawren has been associated in various ways with some of the leading theatrical men of the country and has produced many significant things in the drama.
Mr. More, who is a Harvard man, was with the Boston Stage Society for three years; has worked on the translation and production of many unusual foreign plays; has acted in a number of plays, and has been associated with Mr. Lawren during the past several months in producing plays and fostering various dramatic enterprises. Offices of the new organization are at 51 West 12th street, where candidates for the new plays are being interviewed.

Splendid House Greets Week's Offering at the Alhambra
"The Cat and the Canary"
Drawing Fine and Will
Be Followed by "Rain"
Next Week
If the people running the Alhambra Theatre came among us fully appreciating the sacrifice to be made for the first month or so in the presentation of the drama, then we make hold to assert their chances for success will be good. The continuation shows the hope for believing that the management will continue until such time as the people get into the habit of patronizing the house, induced by good shows and the fine acting of which the artists are capable.
On Monday night "The Cat and the Canary" got off to a splendid start, and from all indications the week will be even better than the previous ones which saw "Goat Alley" holding the boards. Next week brings to Harlem that much talked of show which made such a remarkable hit on Broadway and wherever presented, to wilt. "Rain," and with it comes the return to dramatic ranks of Edna Lewis Thomas. Additions will be made to the number of colored artists appearing at the Alhambra from time to time, and from what we can learn an effort is being made to secure the best Broadway productions to offer the people of this section. That day when a play written by a colored man or woman—and one worth while—is not far off, provided a continued effort to get the interest of the people here will not lose the warmth now so noticeable.
Harold Lloyd Comes to the Lincoln This Week
"The Kid Brother" Combines Comedy and Pathos and Is Another Hit
Much as he dislikes being classified as a "thrill comedian," any more than he aspires to be identified with any one type of character or picture, it is a fact nevertheless that Harold Lloyd has set the pace, not alone for comedians, but for all branches of picture production, in the art of chilling the spine and tingling the nerves. He engaging the illustrated master with the finished sequence in "The Kid Brother" his newest contribution to the realm of mirth, which becomes the logical successor to "For Heaven's Sake."
For years Lloyd has been carrying an idea that he wanted to create a scare or thrill sequence on a deserted ship. But not until "The Kid Brother" came along could he find just the spot into which to drop this idea. How well he has fulfilled it can best be judged by the thousands of theatrerepros who are anxiously awaiting the opening of "The Kid Brother" on Thursday, which will bring Lloyd

St. James' Church Has New Location
Congregation to Take Over St. Nicholas Avenue Edifice Sunday
St. James Presbyterian Church, in entering its thirty-third year of service in New York city since its founding, in 1855, by the late Rev. Pierce Butler Thompson, is to enter a larger and more commodoious church home on June 5. The people and pastor, the Rev. William Drayl Jones, who came to the pastorate in the fall of 1855, have been preparing diligently for this expansion and have not only been successful in raising a fund of over $50 toward purchasing a site at St. Nicholas avenue and 141st street, but have also won the confidence and good-will of the public in the city. The church office to which they go is the one formerly occupied by the St. Nicholas Avenue Presbyterian Church and was made available by the merging of that congregation with the North Presbyterian

"Should Seek Larger Satisfaction From President Coolidge"
THE Negro Press Association, in its last session, gave out a public address advising the race not to take sides in the preliminary decisions, but to wait until candidates and issues were set and selected by the ruling parties. I am wholly unable to persuade myself of the wisdom of this policy. If a subordinate group desires to have its wishes and interests respected, it must insist upon its claims in and out of season. Impressment of influence is much more easy and effective when imparted while matters are in a plastic state than after they have become crystallized in rigid form. The time to impress the public mind is before it has made up itself to a definite cast of thought and sentiment.
Where Tragedy and Comedy Walk Hand in Hand
VICKSBURG, Miss., May 28. TRAGEDY and comedy walk together hand in hand as the waters of the mighty Mississippi recede and as preparations for breaking camp begin. Now that definite promises have been made to close the crevasses to protect the slowly drying lands from the June rise of the river, local committees are asking planters to supply them with lists of their tenants, so they may be speedily returned to their homes. Announcements have been broadcast, stating that there will be no further free transportation of refugees. National Guards are being relieved of emergency duty and farmers are being urged to plant their crops as soon as possible.
The issues of the twenty-eighth campaign are at the present time more fluid than they have been in any pre-election year within the recollection of the writer. Nothing is determined, or easily determinable. There is a strong sentiment within in the office holding circles of the Republican party for the renomination of the present incumbent of the presidency. The National Republican Committee has been canvassed and has endorsed the President for self-succession, with all but unanimity. The occupant of the White House, of either party, can always renominate himself, if he chooses to do so. He controls the party machinery which
Where Tragedy Comedies Hail

Announcement that there will be no refugees. National Guards a duty and farmers are being soon as possible.
From the newly overflowed valleys of Louisiana come tales of the heroism of folk of color, and of convicts—the 'heroes of 27' they are being called—who are being cited for commutation of sentences because of their faithfulness to duty, their trustworthiness, and their valor in the face of extreme danger.
From day to day tales of heroism and acts of selflessness are coming to light as the Mississippi and Arkansas refugees tell of their hurried escape from flooded homes. At the same time tales of inhumanity and rapacity are being exposed.
The newspapers tell of lynchings in States that should be huddle in the presence of this disaster; there are other reports that no newspaper of the South would dare print, tales of raping and robbing—the offenders all white, the victims all colored. The heroism and gallantry of those colored refugees are worthy of the greatest applause, and the abuses and brutality of the whites are worthy of the most violent denunciation; but the most tragic situation here is the lack of faith to themselves and to the race exhibited by a few individuals, who for the sake of a small gain, make true the criticism that will inevitably be aimed at the whole race.
I have been told of the wholesale pilfering of fine clothing and silk stockings, things which might not be of much service to these destitute refugees, but are nevertheless sent here for them. If one person drafted into service by the Red Cross proves dishepest, the whole race must bear the blame, as in no case has the guilty person been found. Most of the people I have seen from the colored quarters have had on old, much worn clothing, though some of them say better garments are being saved for distribution when the refugees are ready to return to their homes. Many tales are told of young people in the camp who will have their choice of georgese dresses and high heeled slippers or nothing at all.
THE NEGRO IN THE NEXT ELECTION
is always responsive to his desires. He manipulates party patronage which is most persuasive to the thrifty politician it was interesting to see with what enthusiasm the two, or is it four, colored members of the national committee, seconded the motion. For them to have done otherwise would have been suicidal to their further political prospects. The race must take their advice with a grain of political salt. I clearly recall the case of Hudson W. Lyon, then Register of the Treasury. It was the question of Roosevelt's nomination to succeed himself. Mr. Lyons was sounded, and stated that he

A tragic incident offset this one a few minutes later. I met an excited man who had just escaped from camp and was on his way "somewhere," he said. His young daughter had been found dead just outside the city. The official report said accidental, but so firmly did the mother believe the girl had been misused at the hands of the guards, she died suddenly of heart failure. Such incidents are whispered of daily, but the inborn fears of these refugees prevent their making any open accusations.
Still another refugee, a woman, said that many of the stories of ill-treatment are true but she added that many of the younger people insist on being at all hours of the night and on the indiscriminate mingling of the sexes, so she considered the official orders providential which put all men to work looking after the camp welfare and protecting the waterfront.
Terrible tales come from Greenville. Men are afraid to return for fear of being put to work at the point of a gun. There is the big question of keeping thousands of men who are idle out of trouble. Only business men who can open their places of business are being permitted to return to Greenville, and as few colored men are in business, few of them can return.
If the blacks and whites of this section come one bit nearer a real, brotherhood, a real understanding of each other. God shall not have worked in vain. His hand wrought the havoc of this flood to avenge the crimes committed against these poor, ignorant farm hands by money-mad plantation owners. At the time of greatest misfortune the color line was often forgotten, and there is no reason why it should again be drawn.
It is to be regretted that there is a lack of guidance and advice for these refugees who are so much like lost sheep. To see them tagged and herded together for the return trip to debt and to darkness is unimaginable to one who has not held it. Even more is it to be regretted that there is no opportunist ready and willing to help prepare this host for the exodus that will inevitably follow this disaster.

"Negro Child Is Falling Back in Health Race"
THERE can be no problem in the life of the Harlem parent which may be so important just now as the problem of defective school, children. Every phase of the community-social, political, economic has shown steady and sustained improvement except this important and outstanding one of child health and child hygiene.
When we speak of child health we mean that balance in the bodily functions of the child between decay and repair. When we speak of hygiene we mean that conformity to certain standards of health aims and ideals which will serve to make the child least subjective to infection by certain health destroying bacteria and consequently affording the child a standard capacity, mental and physical, to do work.
Recent surveys based upon the Blinnet and Army psychological tests seem to indicate that the Negro child is falling behind in the race for adequate preparation for life's work. There appears to be a decided lack of appreciation on the part of the parents of the Harlem child of school age of the fundamental advantages which health affords the child.
The number of children of this community discovered after investigation to be physically defective was, up to 1920, within the bounds and limits of the law of averages. But since that time the health of the children has taken on the proportions of a complex problem which threatens to destroy the future of the community. So grave has this problem become that a special committee of physicians and experts was appointed by the Board of Education to study the health of the Harlem school child
This committee, which has subjoined its report to the general annual report of the Board of Education, presented certain facts which are genuinely alarming. It states that the Harlem parent appears not to have the slightest understanding of the importance of the problem; insinuates that the real difficulty may be traced to a lack of cooperation by the parents with the school teachers and school authorities in the community. Dr. Jay B. Nash, associate professor of physical education at New York University, one of the committee, declared that the colored child is fundamentally equal to the white child in all natural attributes, but that

far as permitted to do so. But when his term of office was up, another was chosen as Register of the Treasury.
I wrote Mr. Roosevelt as strong a letter as I could frame in behalf of the worthy official. The register was good enough to say that my letter was the best presented appraisement of his case and cause. But all to no avail. He had committed the unpardonable political sin of standing in the way of the sought self-incursion of the occupant of the White House.
Mr. Coolidge's record on the race question is now before us. This has been made during the last fifty-five months. It is for the Negro to decide whether his re-election would be for the best interest of the race, and to make that decision known, and as far as possible felt. It may be that he has done the best he could under the delicate and difficult circumstances which beset him. He may have done as well as any other person would have done who might have been elected President.
He has twenty-two months of his second term still remaining. There is yet time for him to give larger satisfaction to the race. If he desires a renomination and election a pre-election spurt in behalf of the Negro may enhance his chances. But up to date, it is but fair to all concerned to say that the good President does not seem to have found very much in the Negro's political favor that appeals to him.
The third term argument cuts no figure in the mind of the Negro politician. It makes no difference to the race whether a

the colored child suffered from the disadvantages of ignorance and carelessness in its home."
Dr. Haven Emerson, professor of public health education at the Columbia University, thought that the family of the Negro child, and not the Negro community, was responsible for the conditions which the survey had school life of this child, also declared that the most appropriations which we forded the schools which is inspected in the Negro county for medical examination and for health generally, woftely insufficient.
In a report which was dered by Miss Frances coer, special investigator for committee cited above, the
Edgar M. Grey
disclosed. He said: "The character and development of the colored community demanded that the individual family assume the maximum amount of responsibility, and that the family should be taught to regard the health of the school child as an investment in the same way that it regarded a life insurance policy."
Dr. Emerson continued to show that of 2,175 boys and girls in the schools in which the Negro child was in a majority only about 200 were blue ribbon children. That is to say, only about 200 were found to be without some mental or physical defect. He also discovered that in the Negro communities the system of medical examinations was a colossal failure, for the reason that there were thousands of Negro children in these schools for whom there had been no medical records
Dr. Louis I. Harris, health commissioner, said there had been discovered more than one physical defect for each child in examinations since May 20, 1926, in the schools carrying a preponderance of Negro children upon their registers. Dr. Harris further pointed out that in 1,418 examinations of Negro children there had been disclosed 4,250 defects in 2,175 children. These defects included the following: 150 cases of nervous ailments, 600 cases of malnutrition, 1,500 of had teeth and 900 of faulty vision. A re-examination disclosed that more than 2,000 of these defects had been removed by treatment.
Dr. Wade Wright, assistant medical director of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, said that physical faults found in the Negro child could be traced directly to lack of preventive methods during the pre-
given good President holds the office for one term or a half dozen terms.
Four years ago the knowing Negro politicians were assuring us that Mr. Coolidge was then filling out Mr. Harding's unexpired term, and that his attitude towards the race should not be then determined, but that we should wait until he was President by direct election. We were abundantly assured that then we should be more than satisfied. But alas, our political prognosticators have proved to be poor prophets. I suppose that now we must give them another chance. We must rely upon the hope that if given another full quadrennium the good Mr. Coolidge will make it alright with the Negro.
I said to one of my good political friends the other day that I was going to anxiously wait to see what eloquent arguments and persuasive reasons the Negro politicians would advance in the twenty-eighth campaign to convince the race to support the party and candidate of their earlier love.
Howsoever these things may be, now is the time for every good citizen of public influence to make it known whether he wishes Mr. Coolidge to be nominated, and why. This, I concede, is an unkind task to impose on the politician who loves a seat on the band wagon.
The only great issue of which I can now think, of vital importance to the Negro in the next campaign, is that of prohibition. Will either or both parties, with political cunning, be permitted to dodge this moral issue or will
school life of this child. He also declared that the monetary appropriations which were afforded the schools which he had inspected in the Negro community for medical examinations, and for health generally, were woefully insufficient.
In a report which was rendered by Miss Frances Blascoe, special investigator for the committee cited above, the following detailed facts are interesting: Of the normal group of 337 children only 167 cards with health records noted upon them were found. Some of these children had only one physical defect; many had several. Among the more prevalent and important defects were the following: Differfective teeth, 74; defective vision, 12; defective breathing or tonsils, or both, 36; weak throats, 1; heart weakness, 2.
Forty-eight were stated to be or normal health. Of 91 in the exceptional group, 41 had no physical record on their cards. Of the remaining 50, 10 had defective teeth, 3 tuberculosis and 6 various troubles. Twenty-one were stated by the physician to be of normal health. It is hard to believe that so large a proportion of this difficult group was physically normal.
In an interview with Willis Huggins, at present a teacher in the high schools but formerly a teacher at P. S. 5, Harlem, it was disclosed that in a class of 23 Negro boys, whose minimum ages were 13 and 15, 41 per cent of these boys displayed the mental age of a child 9 years old; 3 per cent, of children 8 years old; 25 per cent, of children 7 years old, and 25 per cent, of children 10 years old.
The class work of these boys disclosed that there was no uniform mental development among them. For instance, some of these boys had the mental capacity in reading of 4-A grade, others of 3-A grade. Each of them differed individually in arithmetical capacity of the 3-B grade, and a spelling capacity of the 2-B grade. In one particular case a boy of 15 years old showed the mental age of a child of 9, the reading capacity of a boy of 10, the arithmetical ability of a boy of 8 and the spelling capacity of a child of 10.
Mr. Huggins concurred in the opinion of Doctors Emerson and Ward that the chief fault lay in the neglect of the children's parents. He said that it was true that the parents had no idea of the need for proper supervision of the recreations, plays, diet, sleeping, posture, etc. of the children. He pointed out that the children were not asked by their parents about their medical examinations, and that whenever the school authorities failed to conduct the regular medical examinations the parents of these children did not complain. Mr. Huggins pointed to the low records of the Negro children in

they be forced to face it frankly and stand up for their moral conviction? There is no other issue between the parties of any particular interest or importance to the race. The Negro had as well determine his political allegiance by the tossing of a penny, so far as the economic and general issues are concerned.
Must the race stand off in moral aloofness while the two parties live upon the question of the integrity of the constitution of the United States. Now is the time to cry out and spare not. I have written and spoken so freely and frequently on this question that I can hope to do scarcely more than indulge in repetition and reiterate. But like the dark who strikes the right more the first time, I must rely upon repetition for the best effect.
The race should utilize all of its prenomination influence in favor of the policy and the candidate who comes out most definitely for temperance and law enforcement. Now is the time when press, platform and pulpit will have their great weight with public sentiment. It seems to me to be political cowardice for the race to sit supinely by while the great issues are formulating in the public mind.
The leaders of the race will be called upon as never before to determine the wisdom or folly of political unity and solidarity behind any party or candidate. For the last three or four campaigns the race has not been voting for the Republican party or for the Republican candidate; but against the Democrats. The
"Defective Teeth, Vision, Etc., Should Be Removed"
the intelligence tests which were conducted by the schools and declared that very few Negro children approached the passable minimums in these tests. He asserted that Negro children had fallen as low as 62 in a scale of a possible 290. He was of the opinion that the physical defects from which the children suffered were primarily responsible for their mental backwardness.
Dr. Leta S. Hollingworth, assistant professor of education at Teachers College, Columbia University, speaking of the Italian and Negro children, says: "Nearly all of the mentally defective pass as children through the schools. Under our compulsory school laws all except the lowest grade of feeble-minded come under the supervision of the teachers. And these are finally turned out upon the community to wreak their idiocy upon it. The problem may only be solved by the observation of certain prenatal laws and by the further observation of certain rules governing the care of the child after birth."
It would appear from the foregoing discussion that a new effort must be made by the entire community to bring to the attention of the mothers and fathers of the Negro child of school age the definite need for special interest on their part of the health of their children; their attention must be challenged by the Negro pupil, press and by all organizations operating in the community for self-betterment. For, with the appalling toll which disease is taking hold upon the mentality of the Negro child, it should not be long when the point of general inepititude should be reached by the Negro pupils in our school system.
The bath, the comb and brush, the general use of soap and water should be instilled in the mind of the Negro child; attention should be paid to the medical examinations conducted by the school authorities. Whenever a defect is indicated upon the report cards parents should follow up the records and recommendations of the examining physician in order to be certain that the defect indicated is removed as far as possible.
Children are allowed to grow up with defective teeth, with sores upon the body and face, running ears, poor vision, skin disenser of one sort and another. This is fatal. This does not afford the child the proper chance in the race for life. This problem of the health of the Harlem school, child must be solved. Cooperation from the Harlem parents is a primary need.
"Leaders Should Bestir Themselves Now and Not Wait"
traditional attitude of the two parties on the question of human rights made this one-sided alliance inevitable. But the reason for solidarity has grown weaker and weaker with each campaign. Some Democrats, usually from the Southern States, are more unfriendly to the political and civil rights of the race than most Republicans; while other Democrats, usually from the North, are more friendly than most Republicans. Will it forever be the part of political wisdom to carry all of our eggs in one basket?
The increasing approximation of the two parties on the question of human rights is releasing the Negro from the bondage of one party support which has held him in leash since the days of reconstruction. The ancient scarcrow of the Southerner's determination to override the black man's rights will not continue to scare. The fact is he has his own local way as completely under the national control of the Republican as of the Democratic Party. The so-called new Negro has declared his arrival. It remains to be seen what position he will assume and assert in the politi-
Race Prejudice
Race Prejudice in the North
By ELLA ALBERT BROWN (For Preston News Service.)
Very broad and unusually fair is the editorial, "Race Prejudice in the North," which appears in "The Christian Century" for May 12, 1927. This article shows that there are fair-minded Nordics in this country, who are willing to shift some of themselves as a race. To quote: "Race prejudice seems in fact to be a universal vice—universal, at least, among Nordic peoples—which is manifested in varying degrees of intensity according to the degree of provocation given by the social circumstances." From this we would glean that race prejudice is an inherent trait of the Nordic, exhibited against those who are in any way different from themselves, either in color, religion, or social and economic conditions.
Very broad and unusual Prejudice in the North," whi Century" for May 12, 1927. are fair-minded Nordies in to shift some of themselves prejudice seems in fact to be least, among Nordic peoplesing degrees of intensity accation given by the social a would glean that race prejud Nordic, exhibited against thier from themselves, eith and economic conditions.
The superiority complex and the "holier than thou" attitude of the Nordic takes it vengeance alike on those weaker in numbers, advantages and opportunities than themselves. Prejudice against the Jews is on the wane because they are advancing in wealth and opportunity. The economic condition of the Jew is improving, which raises his social status, leaving only religion as the chief barrier between himself and his Nordic brother—and even this barrier is being removed through greater religious tolerance on the part of fair-minded Christians.
When the Negro race is able to improve itself economically and thereby rise in the social scale, gain wealth and education, with the power that goes along with these, his color will be forgotten, and with the disappearance of this barrier the Negro problem will no longer exist. Reverting to the original article, the writer gives some of the causes for the spread of race prejudice in the North. The tremendous migration of the Southern Negroes into the industrial centers of the North has tended to "increase an insignificant racial minority until it becomes a significant one, and all the social phenomena which characterize Southern life begin to appear in the Northern areas," hence, race riots have occurred in Chicago and Detroit, the same as in the extreme South.
With this influx of the Negro into Northern cities the housing situation becomes the oux of the race problem. The Negro "must overcome not only the ostracism of white neighborhoods, but the discriminatory practices of the banks." With the usual overcrowding in colored sections there is the high rent problem. "Negroes pay from two to three times as much rent as white people for the same accommodations."
"If the Negro decides to avoid conflict with white neighbors and move into a Negro subdivision, he is exploited by real estate people who sell him plots of ground without a single civic facility, such as sidewalks, sewers and water connections."
The police and the general public declare "the Negro is a natural criminal," and attribute this criminality "to racial rather than to social and economic causes," but "bad housing, overcrowding, irregular employment, lack of recreational facilities, and some anti-social habits imported from the South and it
real arena. Will he continue the traditional allegiance, without zhyme or reason, because his fathers did so before him, or will he bring his own reason into requisition. Now is the time to revive and revise Mr. Matthew's famous fourteen points.
The race certainly should seek to be restored to its former prestige in public favor and should clamor for enlarged consideration in keeping with its growth in numbers, intelligence and substantial strength. As matters now stand the tendency is distinctively downward. Mr. Coolidge is, I believe, the only Republican President who has not made a single appointment, of confirmatory rank, except as a matter of replacement.
In the matter of the civil service, as I pointed out in my last release, the decline has been notable in the past five year. It is for the race, through its leaders and spokesmen, to say to the nation whether or not it is pleased with this state of things and is willing to vote for its continuance.
As affecting political policies, the Negro must speak now, or during the next incoming administration hold his peace.
y fair is the editorial. "Race

er in color, religion, or social

crime rate high." The Negro ob-
viously suffers handicaps in se-
curing employment and the con-
dition is especially bad for Negro
women.
The important matter of education is a rather bright spot for the Negroes in the North. Here "the first real chance to better their lot is the opportunity for a decent education." Because of the inadequate school facilities of the South, the children of these immigrants are "three or more years retarded," but the Northern school system is doing much for these children. While the church is spoken of as "the most important social institution in the life of the Negro, it is found to be lacking in facilities for their social life and educational program. Some of the white denominations have helped in erecting buildings for the Negroes, but what has been given its infinitima]m] compared either with their foreign or their home missionary contribution."
In Detroit, the mayor has appointed "a permanent race committee, which shall be charged with the task of liberalizing public opinion in the matter of race relations and of keeping a vigilant eye upon the various governmental agencies, in order that discriminatory practices may be discouraged and stopped." When such definite action as this throughout the entire North the "prejudices and bigotries of one race against another" will not only be exposed, but eventually ended.
The plain speaking, magnanimous writer of this editorial article prejudice in the North concludes by saying, "Race prejudice is one of the greatest challenges to the spirit of Christianity. The whole validity of the Christian faith is in the balance as men try to solve the race problem. Either there is in Christ neither white nor black or the whole Christian faith becomes absurd. Quite a generous admission for a Christian Nordic.

Property Owners' Association Holds Meeting
Counsellor F. E. Rivers of New York delivered an interesting and instructive address at the regular monthly meeting of the South Jamaica Property Owners' Association held at the club house of the Merrick Park Recreational Center on Friday evening, May 27. The members received timely advice concerning tax levies, which had been complained of as being excessive by some, and valuable instructions regarding various other matters in connection with their properties. Presidential selections were rendered by Wray McDowell and Messrs. Lester Still, Elwood Scott and Harry Nelson. The association is continuing its fight for better street conditions and police protection. Meetings are held on the fast Friday night of each month, and all owners of property are invited to join.
Long Island Man Charged With Felonious Assault
Adolph Petola, 42, was arrested by Detectives Van Riper, Carpenter and Patrolman Stephen Carpenter on Sunrise Highway, near Freeport, Thursday. Petola is charged with felonious assault on Robert Goodwin (white), 127, Sunrise Highway. Petola was remanded to the County Jail and Goodwin is in a serious condition in the Nassau County Minefield. Petola has been charged by Petola. A large knife saturated with blood was found on the prisoner police say.
No one appeared to have seen the after-event and it is believed that those who did it left the scene in autos. A large crowd quickly gathered but were dispersed by a policeman.
This demonstration, coming quickly on the heels of a meeting Saturday night in Town Hall of the members of the Allied Veterans Association, gave rise to a resentment that discord would mar the usual cam of the Memorial Day Parade. While none but K. Cohenly held their opposition to the Klan, an uneasy selling came to have prevailed among many closely connected with the memorial exercises.
At the meeting of the veterans a resolution was adopted which was sent to the Citizens' Memorial Committee. The resolution read:
"Resolved: That the Allied War Veterans, in meeting assembled, rested back to the Citizens' Memorial Day Committee our disapproval of the action taken by them in permitting any organization taking part in the Memorial Day parade to cause harm. And whereas an organization has been permitted to join their association without the approval of the veterans, body we suggest to their executive committee to promote harmony such as has prevailed herefore. Therefore, be it resolved that hereafter at all times no memorial association or party be permitted in the Memorial Day parade or service without the approval of the Allied War Veterans of the Fourth War Veterans of the Fourth War. The resolution was approved by the A.R. men present at the meeting and was sent to the Citizens' Committee. David Lewlyn of the G.A.R. presided.

Boosting Jamaica
-B: Dr. T. ROY PEYTON-
To be able to define the healthful advantages of the city of Jamaica, which is more or less a suburb in comparison to our neighbors, New York City and Brooklyn, does not require a lengthy description. The reasons are obvious enough. The "Own a Home" slogan has not been shouted in rain. Hundreds of families who were herefore cramped in city quarters are not enjoying the freedom and are of little bungalow or home which they have paid for, or are paying for. Here they have an abundance of fresh air, sunshine, green grass, flowers and every little convenience that makes a home a home.
I find in my daily travels through and around Jamaica new families making their homes here. These folks warn the fates of the unfortunate city dwellers. They express only the greatest satisfaction in getting away from the undesirable city environment. Many have told me since living in Jamaica their health has improved remarkably. They feel more fit physically, the appetite increases, the red-blood corpse takes on a deeper hue, and they are more contented. From a medical standpoint the patient has the advantage if he or she is being treated in a light airy room from the window, rather than in a dismal, dark room, with no windows, and only a small ventilator for air. This is especially true in long, chronic illnesses.
People who have children find Jamaica an especially delightful place in which to live. There is ample room on the grounds for the children's play. The parents are free from anxiety as regards the common and usual dangers of the city streets. And the proximity to neighboring parks and seashore and pleasure sites on the Island is ample. To those who want and can appreciate what a home really means, the pleasure of one's garden or lawn is possible in Jamaica. These features are an aid to health. One often sees the business man caring for his shrub or lawn or vegetables after working hours and he gets a "kick" out of it. And, incidentally, such practices encourage a closer contact with Mother Nature, insure a little exertion, and provide otherwise indulge, and stimulate deep inhalation of fresh air.
I have very often had the following history from a patient: "I had felt out of sorts for many months — no pain, but I had no interest in the things about me. I worried continually about trivial matters — my disposition was not the best. I had been losing weight, appetite poor, and, in fact, 'run down,' as the expression goes. I finally decided to call me my family physician who, using horribly examined, no, recommended a change in environment, such as lamata or some suburb. I chose lamata, and in ten months I feel like a person made away. Two J.
was under the doctors' care, but even he himself said the change worked the cure and the tonics that he gave merely aided me to speed up my happy recovery." This sort of thing is a common occurrence in suburban districts, and I feel firmly convinced that those folk who make their home in Jamaica will not be disappointed and, to say the least, their health will not suffer.
Knights of Pythias in Thanksgiving Services
Nearly 1,000 members of the Knights of Pythias, Order of Calanthe, and their friends attended the joint thanksgiving sermon of the six Brooklyn lodges and courts of Calanthe of the Knights of Pythias, A.

Mother of Well-Known Photographer and Decorator Buried
In the death of Mrs. Mary Bibbins, 73 years old, Brooklyn loses one of its oldest and best-known women. Mrs. Bibbins died at her home, 521 Herklimer street, recently. She had not been in good health for some time. She was the mother of William A. Bibbins, the well-known Fulton street photographer, and John Bibbins, the decorator.
Mrs. Bibbins was born in Baltimore, Md., and came here when a small girl. For years she had been active in church, fraternal and religious circles. She Joined Trinity P. E. Church a number of years ago. In the course of time she transferred her membership to St. David's P. E. Church.
Moral services were held from the home. Only a few friends were present as the deceased was known for her conservativeness and did not
They Marched With the Klan
Negroes, as Usual. Always First in War and First to Forges
Despite the confusion that raised away with the original plans for the fourteenth Memorial Day paddle in central Queens, because of permission sanctioned by John H. Hilliker, grand marshal of the parade, allowing the Major Emmet D. Smith Klan No. 28, Knights of the Knix Klan, to participate unloaded, some 200 or more persons four group, representing various organizations, headed by George W. Tunkins, marshal, took part, as in earlier years, Mr. Hunkins, representing a large number of Negroes of the South Side on the executive committee of the Citizens Memorial Committee, voted to permit the S. K. K. to march.
On just Wednesday he issued the following statement to the press after the Jamaica Council, Knights of Columbus, officially withdrew from the parade.
"Announcement that the K. K. K. will march will have no offer on tainahua's colored delegation, so long as they march unhooded. Our purpose is to honor past and present war heroes, and not to start unnecessary trouble. "I have been assured that the men and women will attend, rain or shine, for it is as much their parade as any other organization." The storm of protest was raised by local council, Knights of Columbus, who withdrew immediately from the field, learned the hooded order's application had been accepted. The ultimatum was decided upon at a meeting held at its clubhouse, on Herriman avenue. Janetna last Tuesday evening.
The parade assembled at 1:20 a.m. at Station Square. Exercises were held at the Soldiers' and Soldiers' Memorial Monument, Merrick road and Hillside avenue, by the G. A.

The line of march began at Forest Parkway, Woodhaven, along Jamaica avenue to Park street, Richmond Hill, and then on Hillside avenue, east to Jamaica, passing the reviewing stand at Clinton avenue. The parade disbanded at Grand street.
A majority of the colored marchers retired to the Filks' home at 111th avenue and 157th street, after the parade, where a kala time was the rest of the after noon and after the evening. Refreshments were served.

Corona Church to Celebrate
Reverend Hinton's Work to Be Fittingly Observed
The Corona Congregational church, which will celebrate its eleventh anniversary from June 5 to 13, was organized April 6, 1916, by a small group of people representing various denominations. He opened an institution that would appeal to people of all faiths. After very careful planning, they decided upon a Congregational church as being best suited for the community at that time.
The progress during the past eleven years has been all that might be expected of such an institution. There were added nearly four hundred members to the roll, many of whom are still with the church and are working to help put the program over. Property has been bought in the best location in Corona, the value of which is over $20,000. All mortgages have been paid off with the exception of a $000 second.

Brooklyn Man Faces Long Term
Up on Third Charge of Burglary Before Judge Nova
Robert Harris, 18, of 404 Llivonia avenue, who, according to the police, has been arrested twice before, faces a long term for robbery. He was convicted by a jury on a charge of burglary in the second degree in the County Court May 25. Judge Algeron I. Nova presided. Harris was sent to Raymond Street Jail, where he will remain until Wednesday, June 1, when he will be sentenced by Judge Nova. According to the police, Harris developed from a sort of "petty larceny" theft to a night prowler about larceny. He was sent to Albany Heights section before he was caught in the early morning hours of April 23, last, by Patrolmen Walsh and O'Brien of the Atlantic avenue station.
About 4:30 a.m., April 22, Joseph Friend, white, and his wife were awakened by the noise of somebody climbing into the window of their bedroom. Friend looked and saw a colored man standing near his bed. "Keep still and throw me those trousers." ordered the intruder. The white man did as he was to. The burglar took with him a diamond cluster ring. Mrs. Friend's wedding ring and $39 in cash. Friend's ring, with its diamond-studded Masonic emblem, was also taken.
Friend notified the police of the burglar's visit. It was well past midnight the next morning when Patrolmen Walsh and O'Brien, patrolling in an automobile along Union street, near Eastern parkway, saw a colored man seeking to open windows of homes. For eight blocks they kept the would-be intruder under surveillance. Then they arrested him. On him they claim that they found a screwdriver. He was taken at once to the home of Friend, who identified Harris as the unwelcome visitor to his home the previous morning. The police allege that twice before Harris had been arrested for burglary, but on each occasion he was allowed to plead to petty larceny. What was your first charge of burglary?" asked Assistant District Attorney Geochan of Harris. "I was with a young fellow who went into a house," explained Harris, "and when he came out he gave me something. I just took it and carried it away."
"What was the second burglary?" asked Geoghan. "Oh, just a radio," answered Harris. Under the Beames Law Harris faces a possible maximum sentence of twenty-five years in Sing Sing.

ON ALL DECORATION DAYS
Y E blacks who live, to you we throw
The torch; be yours to face the foe
At home; and ever hold it hign.
Fight for the things for which we die.
That we may sleep, where poppies grow,
In Flanders fields.
—Andrea Razafkeriefo.

So Endeth
WITHOUT even having to appear in
court in person, Capt. John Rohweider,
of the ill-fated ferry launch Linseed
King, has been exonerated of all blame
in a catastrophe in which about sixty
men lost their lives. Naturally. we
wonder why.
IT WAS on the morning of December
20 of last year that about one hundred
men — white and coiored — massed
themselves together on the west Ninety-
sixth street pier to be transported to
the plant of Spencer Kellog & Sons at
Edgewater, N. J. Some of the men
were already employed at the plant;
others, responding to advertisements
in the daily papers, hoped to find work
there. All of them were in good spirits.
The holidays were approaching and
meant that they would be able to make
their loved ones a little happier than
they could without work.
SHORTLY AFTER the Linseed King,
loaded down with its human freight.
shoved off from the pier and headed to-
wards Edgewater. It never reached
there; nor did many of the threescore
men whose dead bodies were picked up
out of the icy waters of the Hudson
River. From accounts of the disaster
given by eye-witnesses, the launch was
overcrowded. It was small. It was
not licensed to carry the number of men
on board—a circumstance which cer:
tainly looked like criminal negligence
at the time.
AFTER BEING CALLED fifteen times
the case against Capt. Rohweider.
charging him with suspicion of homi-
cide, went to trial Friday before Mag-
istrate Corrigan. in Homicide Court.
“Experts” were found who testified that
the launch could carry MORE MEN than
were on board and the charge against
the captain was dismissed. Prior to
this the Spencer Kellog company had
disclaimed responsibility. and the Fed:
eral Government had claimed inability
to take action. :
SOMEHOW the feeling does not leave
us that something is amiss; that jus-
tice to both the living and the dead
has not been meted out; that responsi:
dility in the case should be fixed—if it
is in any way possible to fix it —- and
this without persecuting anyone. I
government is to continue to mean any:
thing at all, it must protect the individ:
ual against such eventualities by stric
regulations, and by the prosecution «
those whe violate them.
Who’s Guilty?
IT IS ALMOST unbelievable that even
in Florida a man can he forced to leave
the State when no formal charges have
been lodged against him. Yet, that is
what appears to have happened in the
case of Bennie Smith, an organizer ior
‘the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Por-
ters, who was ordered ta leave Jackson-
‘ville by the police authorities.
| SOFAR as is known Smith committed
no crime — unless it is a crime for a
man to do the legitimate work for which
he was hired, and in which he happened
to be intensely interested, because he
believed that it would kelp advance the
interests of a number of the members
‘of his race.
A GRAVE CRIME has been committed
and since the authorities do not charge
Smith with having committed it, they
themselves must be the guilty parties.
BY ACT OF CONGRESS all firearms
capable of being concealed on the per-.
son are now unmailable. except as pro-
vided for by government regulations af-
jecting them. This is Jegislation
states in which it is a crime to carry
concealed weapons have tong advocat-
ed, for the-reason that their laws seek-
ing to regulate the sale and the carry=
ing of weapons were practically nulli-
fied by the sale and transportation of
firearms through the United States
mails. :
A CAPTAIN in the United States Ma-
rine Corps. stationed down in Nicar-
agua, says that in deiense of his life he
went to the home of a bandit chieftain
and killed the man and a native woman.
Make him prove it!
AT LAST a judge has been found who
stated in open court that because a
white woman associates with a color=
ed man it need not mean. necessarily,
that there is something wrong with the
woman,
EVEN FLOODS do not daunt the
Southerners lynching proclivities,

Dear Sir:

Miller, the honored dean of Howard University.
‘There are some facts in the dean's article worthy
of note and these I am not going to say anything
about, because they stand out us facts that are in-
disputable. But if the article ix to be viewed from
the Ight of criticism, 1 cannot help saying that it
hax heen a complete failure. Criticism to be use-
ful must be constructive and not destructive. The
article has made vers littie suggestion for an im-
provement of the status of Negroes in The Americas.
