MILLER The African's Macedonian City last week while the fous in session August 21 to 24. To promote universal race equa was sponsored by the Circ tions, of which Addie W. Hu DuBois was the general presid e the secretary and interpreter The African's Macedonian cry went up from New York City last week while the fourth Pan-African Congress was in session August 21 to 24. The object of this congress was to promote universal race equality and full citizenship. It was sponsored by the Circle for Peace and Foreign Relations, of which Addie W. Hunton is president. W. E. B. DuBois was the general presiding officer and Rayford Logan the secretary and interpreter of the congress. Plans are already on foot to make the next Pan-African Congress more largely representative. Says Addie W. Hunton: "The women of this organization have already resolved themselves into a committee to finance the printing of the minutes of the Fourth Congress and to employ an executive secretary. It is the desire of this committee to have the West Indies, Africa and Europe as fully represented at the next congress as the United States." As all the sessions were well attended, Rayford Logan, who attended the second and third ones, said: "The Fourth Pan-African Congress was the most successful, most interesting, best attended and most encouraging of all." Hungry, Man Resorted to Theft Stole Six Shirts From Trunk in Trooper's Club Said to have stolen because he was hungry, Clarence Wenkley Already plans are being made for the Fifth Congress. While frequent spirited discussion took place, the atmosphere was one of harmony and unity. Definite ideas supported by great majority of opinion resulted from interchange of views, based not on mere hearth, but from actual study and personal experience in various countries. To convey the impression of the many lands in which the 150,000,000 of Negroes live an array of Harlem's fair maledicts at the call of W. E. B. DuBois marched and took their places in a circle before the audience. They each wore the flags of various lands and on each was pinned the total population of black folks of the flag she bore. This was at the opening session held at the St. Mark's M. E. Church on Sunday afternoon, August 21. The universality of the Negro was intensified by having representatives from many lands give greetings. The outstanding international speakers were Dr. Wilhelm Menzsch, a pastor from Pitzen, Germany, who spent four years in Central Africa; T. Augustus Toote of Nassau, a member of the House of Association of the Bahama Islands; Chief Amoah IX of Gold Coast; Adolph Sixth of Virgin Islands; M. Daniels Bellgrade, commander of the Legion of Honor, Halil. Among the national speakers were Charles H. Wesley and Len William Hansbury of Howard University, Washington; Bishop Ransom and Phillips; Mrs. Beatrice Cannady of Portland, Oregon. Chief among the local speakers were Williams Pickens, George E. Hayne, the Rev. John W. Robinson, Messrs. Moore, Huisvoud and Eugens Corbie. There were 200 delegates present; twenty states and thirteen lands were represented. Chief Amoah and M. Daniels Bellgrade proved very interesting personalities. The Chief is in America studying economic conditions. He is wealthy in his own name, having contributed $150 for the expenses of the congress. The chief industry of his land is the raising of cocoa. His country grows fifty per cent of the supply of the world, 200,000 tons being shipped annually. The Chief (Continued on Page 2.)

Miller's Troopar's Club, 115 West 133d street, Sunday night. Witnesses declare they caught the fellow "red handed." When Magistrate Douras heard his story in Heights Court Monday morning he held him in $1,000 bail for trial in the Court of Special Sessions. Weakley was arrested by Detective Joe Brown of the West 1338th Street Station. The man confessed his guilt to the magistrate, telling him that he was down and out and hungry, and had stolen only to get something to eat. Irwin C. Miller pressed the charge. The actor begged the court for mercy, but Magistrate Douras declared that he would have done better had he asked for voluntary contributions rather than resort to theft. Youth Sentenced to Death in D. C. Companions in Crime Sentenced to Prison WASHINGTON, Aug. 29 (By ANP)—Alfred Simms, 30, was found guilty of criminally assaulting Alberta Rice, a 23-year-old white woman, June 20, here Tuesday, and was sentenced to be hanged. The date of the execution will be set by governor. His companions in the crime were sentenced to from five to twenty years in prison, as follows: Herman Proctor sentenced to serve 30 years, Harry Proctor, the youngest of the group being 17 years old, must serve ten years, Calvin Ridley and Richard Brown were sentenced to five years. The prisoners denied their guilt and when asked whether they had anything to say, each one took the opportunity to declare again his innocence. In imposing the death sentence, Judge W. M. Diggs pointed out that this was the first death sentence he had imposed and had he known that at any time it would have fallen to his list to sentence a man to die, he would have remained off of the bench. Team were in his eyes when he pronounced the sentence upon Simms, who received it without any trace of emotion whatever. DOURAS LECTURES WOMAN. Kestle Walker pleaded guilty to public intoxication before Magistrate Douras in Heights Court Monday and was given a suspended sentence following a lecture from the magistrate.

'Orphans of Storm' Stopped by Police Lad Had Set Out on Bike From Bridgeport to North Carolina Indications are that the aunts have it this season, what with spall urchins attempting to pedal the old bike hundreds of miles to see them. The latest aunt exodus was started when Isaac Seller, 10, left his home at 190 Smith street, Bridgeport, Conn., late Friday night, with a capital of $2 and a bicycle, to pedal his way to his aunt in North Carolina—Mrs. Cora Long, of Franklin Town. The intrepid wayfarer was sighted late Sunday night by Patrolman John McLaughlin of Simpson street station, at Hoe avenue and 172d street, the Bronx, in the pouring rain. It didn't seem to matter to Seller that his cash balance stood at just 79 cents. "Hey there," called McLaughlin, "What's the big idea of riding in the storm?" Sellers didn't reply that he was an "Orphan of the Storm," but simply said, "R. I don't bother me none. I'm trying to get to North Carolina. Maybe you can tell me the best way." He was promptly shown the best way to the police station, where the customary feast proffer was made. "I don't mind having something to eat," he grinned, "because I only got 79 cents left." "How much did you have at the start?" asked the kind cops. "Only $2," said the lad, who explained that since his mother's death three years ago he has been living with a brother in Bridgeport. His brother, he said, gave him the $5 and told him to go as far as he liked. The daring chap was remanded to the custody of the Children's Society, who will investigate his story. His bike, though, remained at the police station. Only a few days ago, a barefoot boy of ten, Charles Downie, pedaled his way on a secondhand bike from Bowle, Md., to the Bronx, to visit an aunt who formerly lived at 160th street and Elton avenue. Porto Rican Bit Him on The Cheek, Cop Says Manuel Diaz, 28, Porto Rican, 14 East 118th street, was arrested about five o'clock Sunday mornings by Patrolman Gilmartin of the West 123d street station at 125th street and St. Claire place. The policeman charges that the Porto Rican resisted arrest and bit a chunk out of his cheek, and knocked breath out of him by sending his knee into his stomach with great force. Diaz was arraigned before Mapir- istrate Douras in Heights Court Monday morning, and held in $3, 500 bail for the Grand Jury on a charge of felonious assault. Although Diaz said he could not speak English, he entered a plea of not guilty. He was advised to waive examination for trial in the higher court. PRISONER BURNS TO DEATH IN JAIL GOSHEN, Ala., Aug. 29 (By ANP)—An unidentified man who had been picked, up by the police for being drunk burned to death here Tuesday when the local jail was destroyed by fire.

Snow Falla in Pennsylvania YORK, Pa., Aug. 27—Early risers in this city to-day observed falling snow flakes.

NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, AUG. 31, 1927 PASTOR'S VICIOUS SWING LANDS ON CHURCH SISTER Blow Intended for Deacon—Cambridge Fold Locked Out of Their Own Church — Judge Dismisses Case CAMBRIDGE, Aug. 29.—The Rev. H. C. Daniels, pastor of the Western Avenue Baptist Church, made a vicious swing at one of his deacons, missed him by a hair and the blow landed on Sister Julia Demby, knocking her sprawling, last Sunday evening in a church row. CAMBRIDGE, Aug. 29.—The Rev. H. C. Daniela, pastor of the Western Avenue Baptist Church, made a vicious swing at one of his deacons, missed him by a hair and the blow landed on Sister Julia Demby, knocking her sprawling, last Sunday evening in a church row. Daniels had attempted to lock the members out because they disagreed with his manner of conducting services. The matter was taken to court, where the minister was severely reprimanded by Judge Edward Counihan of the Third District court, East Cambridge. Thursday, testimony in court was to the effect that members of the church desired to hold a meeting to formulate plans for the best interest of the church and approached the minister for the use of it. The minister refused to admit his members and caused the doors to be locked against them. The members forced the doors open but were chased out by policemen whom the Rev. Daniels had sta- lioned on the inside. The minister than went into the courts to have warrants issued for the refractory members. The court clark was startled by the minister's procedure and refused to issue the warrants, but granted a hearing to see what the trouble was all about. After hearing both sides, Thursday, Judge Counihan dismissed the case by saying: "I am shocked beyond words to find that a pastor of a church should attempt to prevent its members from holding a meeting in their own church office. In fact, this proceeding is a reflection on a religious body. The case is dismissed."

Lee Long, 30. 300 West 153rd street, said this to Patrolman William Dash of the West 135th street station and proceeded to back it up with action. Nor did Patrolman Dash register inertia. It was a long time before Long came to. Long was arraigned in Heights Court Monday morning before Magistrate Douras, who found him guilty of disorderly conduct and fined him $20 or five days. He didn't have the $20. Patrolman Dash, who has been given the name of the "Kid Cop," because of his splendid physical condition and youthful appearance, told the court that Long approached him at Eighth avenue and 150th street Sunday night, and tried to pick an argument with him. Dash related that he walked away and told Long to go on about his business. When he returned to the corner, Dash said a woman with a child complained that Long had attempted to molest them. "Why don't you go on home, fellow," said Dash to Long, whereupon Long became exceedingly abusive, he said, and attempted to take his night stick from him. Well, a few minutes later Dash arrived with his man in a taxi at the police station. Changes Guilty Plea to Not Guilty Dudley Held for Special Sessions on Banjo Theft Charge Accused of stealing a banjo, Edmund Dudley, 19, 27 West 129th street, was held in $1,000 ball for General Sessions when arraigned in Heights Court Monday before Magistrate Douras who found him guilty of disorderly conduct and fined him $20 or five days. He didn't have the $20. When Long told his story to Magistrate Douras, he admitted being intoxicated, but denied that he had became abusive, and said that Danh hit him with his black-jack. Concerning the charge of molesting the woman and her child, Long said, "I saw the little girl by herself when her mother went in a store, and I just wanted to see whose little girl she was." "Long, I find you guilty," said Magistrate Douras. "Twenty dollars fine or five days." CORRECTIONS The headline in the issue of Saturday, Aug. 27, "Haitian President Received By Pope" should have been "Liberian President Received By Pope." The overline "Sailing" above the photograph of Dr. Mason Pitman in the issue of Aug. 27 should have been above that of M. Dantag Bellegrande.

Dudley first pleaded guilty, but upon advice of counsel he withdrew his plea. Charles Selae, 225 West 128th street, testified that he left his $157 banjo in his room on August 22 and that it was found missing two days later. Dudley had been in his room, he said, and he therefore placed the blame on him. He notified the police and Dudley was apprehended by Detective King of the West 123d Street Station. Patrolman Feeney of the West 123d Street Station was first called, however, and he arrived at Dudley's home to search for the banjo. Wilfred Osborne, who lives at Dudley's home, refused to let him in because he had no search warrant, it is said, and Feeney placed Osborne under arrest on a charge of disorderly conduct in that he interfaced with an officer in the performance of his duty. Magistrate Douras fined him $10, with the alternative of spending five days in jail. He paid. Dudley is said to have confessed to the theft to Detective Klag and led the detective to a pawnshop at 2158 Mighth avenue, where he said he pawned the banjo --- — Joseph Albright — Prominent Elk May Be Divorced Suit to Follow Raid Conducted by Well Known Sleuth Led by operatives of the Boulin National Detective Agency, 110 East 125th street, Marie Munroe Fray, 133 West 140th street, and several witnesses raided the apartment of Ruth Yarde. 200 West 143d street, top floor front, about six o'clock Friday morning, and are said to have found Benjamin Fray, husband of Mrs. Fray, entwined in the arms of Miss Yarde.

They gave their names as Albert Clicko, James Harper, William Fuller, Claude Greenlaw, Charles Walker, John Maloney, James Hurd alias Hard; Claude White alias Joe Whits; James Harper alias Mattle Harper; Edward Hawkins alias Henry Smith, and George Thomas alias Thomas Reno and Joseph Harris. Woman Jailed for Two Days as Disorderly Lena Jackson, 53, 560 West 1624 street, left for the jail house Saturday, having been unable to pay a sum of $10 for disorderly conduct when arraigned before Magistrate Farrel in Heights Court Saturday. The woman was arrested by Petrolman Molk of the Fifteenth precinct on complaint of George Isaac, white, who told the court that she came to the basement of his apartment house and raised a disturbance. Miss Jackson said she had been living with the young janitor in the basement, which explained why she refused to leave the premises upon Isaac's demand. WOMEN ARRESTED IN 134th STREET FIGHT During an altercation in the street with Norman Bates, 35, 242 West 187th street, Anna Leanard is said to have cut him rather badly on the right arm. The fight occurred about two o'clock Monday morning in front of the Leanard woman's home, 109 West 18th street. Patrolman Beverly of the West 188th street station arrived on the scene and placed the Leanard woman under arrest, although Bates told him that he did not want to make a complaint. EXTRA REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION WHEREVER Possible Trade With Stores in Harlem That Do Not Practice Discrimination in the Selection of Their Employees. WOMEN STORM IMPERIAL HOME; WANT MONEY BACK Housing Committee of Local Elk Lodges Had Collected $1 Each From Those Wanting to Rent Rooms---- Huge Money Loss Seen One of the quick aftermath was the besieging of Imperial hundreds of frate women, who registering their names to take their homes at $1.50 per head the convention, but who got no Joseph W. Albright, chairr tee, under whose supervision the names registered, was still on Monday, but so strong did they were their protests that the gen nothing to do with the failure of York, had to beat a hasty retre Elks Shocked by Dr. Atkins' Death Was Second Grand Exalted Ruler of the Order One of the quick aftermaths of the Elks' convention was the besieging of Imperial Home Monday morning of hundreds of frate women, who had paid their dollar for registering their names to take delegates and visitors into their homes at $1.50 per head per day during the week of the convention, but who got none to take. Joseph W. Albright, chairman of the Housing Committee, under whose supervision the dollars were taken and the names registered, was still on duty at the Imperial Home Monday, but so strong did the women come and so vigorous were their protests that the genial Joe, who, incidentally, had nothing to do with the failure of the people to come to New York, had to beat a hasty retreat. When the news reached the Grand Lodge session of the I. B. P. O. B. of W. Saturday morning that Dr. William E. Atkins of Hampton, Va., the second grand exalted ruler of the order, had passed away, the business of the session immediately suspended and the meeting resolved itself into a memorial one. Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson requested Dr. W. George Avant, grand chaplain of the order, to take charge. The Elke' service for the dawn was read, and brief speeches by those who had known the doctor intimately were made. "Steal Away to Jesus," was feelingly sung by the delegates. Dr. Atkins, who died in Newport News, Va., was head of the order back in the days when there were but 10,000 and less than $3,000 in the treasury. Today there are 100,000 members with more than $100,000 in the treasury. Breaks Jail to Prove Honesty Lad Had Been Charged With Stealing Auto; Returns TRINIDAD, Colo., Aug 29.—E. P. Watley, 18-year-old boy of Amarillo, Tazas, in order to prove that he did not steal an automobile found here in his possession, broke fall, "bummed" his way to Amarillo and back and flashed a bill of sale in the eyes of local officers. However, he was found guilty by Judge Lawson as a juvenile delinquent. Sentence was deferred. The boy was arrested two weeks before, when he was suspected of having played a part in local burglaries and of having stolen an automobile. With him was arrested his brother, T. P., and a companion, Elmer Johnson. Two days later he broke jail. T. P. and Johnson wanted to break with him, but he convinced them that it was their duty to remain in jail as hostages for him. "Ah'm going but ah'm also comin' back," he told them. It came out in court that two days after his jail break the boy returned, tired but jubilant, and showed the sheriff a bill of sale for the car. Hurt by Falling Plaster Viola Lewis, 24, 127 West 124th street, suffered contusions of the scapd Sunday when plaster fell from the ceiling of her apartment and struck her on the head. She was treated at Harlem Hospital and returned home. FLORENCE GARNETTE SCHOOL FOR GIRLS Send your girl to the Florence Garnette School for girls. 224 W. 139th St. Tenth term Returns One woman who gave her name as Mrs. A. Carrington, and her address as 180. West 137th street, said that she was a sick woman and that she had two orphan children to support. She said that she could fill afford to lose the dollar, as small as it was, and she insisted that her money be refunded. So persistently did she insist that her money be refunded, it was thought at one time that the police would have to be called. Many said that they had heard visitors had been sent to white hotels after the Negroes of Harlem had paid their money and prepared for them to stay at their homes. Albright vigorously denied this and said that if any person had been sent to the Hotel Theresa, as the story has it that is now going the rounds, he knows nothing about it. In fact, there is no proof whatsoever that any of the visitors who came to New York for the convention stayed at any of the white hotels, other than those few individuals like Robert Church of Memphis, who always stops at the Hotel McAlpin when in New York, and Dr. Purnell of Oakland, who makes the Hotel Navarre his home whenever he is in this city. NEW YORK' ELKS OUT. The truth of the matter is that the crowds that were expected here for the convention failed to come and as the result of this the three local lodges, constituting the entertaining committee, are already facing a deficit of $20,000. That this sum will amount to more is certain after all bills are in and the claims are all audited. The $20,000 mentioned does not represent the sums invested by individuals in various enterprises, all of which were failures. The three-nights' dance arranged by Johnny Carey and Mel Fraser at the Renaissance set them back a good sum; the reception of the Sea Shore Girls, under Sam Walker, also cost that individual a pretty penny. Less than 200 people wanted to take the boat ride around New York, one of the convention activities that was free to the delegates and visitors, and a still smaller number showed up for the scheduled excursion to Bear Mountain Friday, though the committee had to pay $1,300 for the steamer Clermont, which did not leave the dock until 3 p. m., although scheduled to leave at 10 a. m. Likewise, the bathing beauty contest that was to have been held at Manhattan Casino Friday night turned out a dud, about 200 people being on hand, sans the bathing beauties. All things considered, the convention, in so far as New Yorkers were concerned, was a flat failure. On the other hand, those who did attend report the hospitality extended by the people of this city to have equalled that of any other city that has ever entertained an Elks' convention. The convention committee will hold its first meeting following the session Saturday night.

Olivet Baptist Church, 201 Lenox avenue, while the Daughter Elks were in session last Wednesday afternoon, was held without bail for the Grand Jury on charges of grand larceny and petty larceny, when arraigned before Magistrate Douras in Heights Court Monday. Sadie Grant, 202 West 147th street, told the court the story of the alleged robbery. She related seeing Lanier brush past her into the pantry and enter a closet where the women had hung their wraps. Being collarless, she said, she thought Lanier to be one of the jailfors of the church, for she knew no men were allowed to attend the women's session. Los Angeles Narrowly Escapes Destruction LOS ANGELES, Calif., Aug. 27. (By ANP). Citizens living on the thickly populated East Side were much excited as the time drew near for the execution of Jacco and Vanzetti. This was because of the fact that the next day Her suspicions were aroused when Lanier stayed in the closet unduly long. She went to investigate, and Lanier squeezed himself into the closet further and closed the door, she narrated. She then called Mrs. Mary D. James, 305 West 127th street, telling her that she had caught a thief. When they opened the door Lanier was standing in the closet with a $5 bill in his hand, and in the other was a handbag belonging to Mrs. Anna Robertson, 549 Lenox avenue, said Mrs. Grant. They questioned Lanier, she said, and he became nubusive. "Young man, this is the church, and you should be ashamed of yourself. We will let you go if you give us back our money," she told the ex-convict. He refused, she said. Patrolman Ferrarl of the West 123d street station was summoned, and Lanier was placed under arrest. Attorney Oscar Garrett, 206 Broadway, defended Lanier Monday morning, and sought to show that before Lanier entered the closet, the women called out "This is the man" and pounced on him and had him arrested. In the courtroom hallway, Mrs. Grant's husband, a text driver, accused Attorney Garrett of threatening to slap his wife. It was all that everybody could do to restrain him, including a few cops. One woman in the Grant party was nearly arrested when she refused to leave the corridor.

Citizens living on the thickly populated East Side were much excited as the time drew near for the execution of Sacco and Vanzetti. This was because of the fact that the next day after the first date set a bomb weighing 70 lbs. was found in a vacant lot at Vernon, with its fuse intact and loaded with high explosives. It was said by experts to have been powerful enough to have not only destroyed all the oil industries in that vicinity, but would have blown up all the southeast part of town, which includes a large part of the Negro section bordering Long Beach avenue STEALING FOLLOWS HANGING IN LA NEW ORLEANS, La., Aug. 29 (By ANP)—Jesse Tollvar was hanged at the parish prison Friday for the murder of Joseph Thomas, whom Tollvar is alleged to have stabbed to death on the night of June 14, 1926.

Homicide Charge Against Man Fails But Bostonian Is Held for Felonious Assault in Attempt to Kill BOSTON, Aug. 29.—No probable cause was the decision of the Third District Court. East Cambridge, Thursday, in the case of Russell C. Banks, 20 Jay street, who had been charged with murder in connection with the death of Thomas Dignan, white. Testimony of the police was to the effect that a man had kicked Banks' dog on the street and that when he resented it a number of white men followed him to his home, where he got a pistol, came out and fired. Dignan received a superficial bullet wound in the chin. He died several days afterwards in the Cambridge Relief Hospital. Medical Examiner Charles Currier testified that Dignan's death was not due to the bullet that hit him in the chin, alleged to have been fired by Banks, but was due to pneumonia. Banks, however, was held in $1,000 bond, charged with assault with a dangerous weapon with intent to murder. The whole affair, police say, grew out of intense racial feeling which had existed in the Jay street community since several clashes between whites and blacks two weeks ago, and in which John J. Hayes, white, received wounds from an ice pick. "Family Friend In Odd Mixup "Family Friend In Odd Mixup Man Produces Pair of Bloomers From Suit Case in Court Carleander Neal, alias Ford, and her husband, Hubert, 159 West 133d street, were brought in Heights Court Monday before Magistrate Douras by Patrolman Luther Jackson of the West 135th street station, charging them with larceny from the person. Webb Kennedy, of the same address, the complainant, refused to sign a complaint against the pair, after he had changed his mind at the station house earlier in the morning, at which time he caused their arrest. He had told Lieutenant Cahill in the West 135th street police station that when he woke up that morning Mrs. Neal was sitting on his lap, and when she got up, he discovered that his left trousers pocket had been slit and his money stolen. Kennedy, it seemed, is a close "family friend" of the Neals. Kennedy also said something about his clothes being stolen, but they were recovered, although it appeared at first that Mrs. Neal might have been involved in that. Mrs. Neal said she knew the man who had stole Kennedy's money. Neal was not heard to raise any objections to his wife sitting on Kennedy's lap, however. Considerable comedy arose when Magistrate Douras called the case. When Kennedy explained why he would not press the charge. Magistrate Douras then asked to see the contents of the suitcase Kennedy had with him. When a pair of bloomers were shown Magistrate Douras said, "I know they don't belong to you." They belonged to Mrs. Neal, along with her gingham apron and a few other pieces, which Magistrate Douras requested she take out and carry home. The bag belonged to her also, but she permitted Kennedy to use it to take his things back home. When she wanted to put her bloomers, etc., etc., back into the suitcase, Magistrate Douras advised her take take them home separately.

Morse to Have Further Hearing Morse to Have Further Hearing Patrolman Walton Charges He Resisted Arrest After Rumpus Charged with felonious assault and possession of a dangerous weapon, Sam Morse, 35, 201 West 148th street, was arraigned in Heights Court Monday before Magistrate Douras and held in $1,000 bail on the first charge and $500 bail on the second charge, for a further hening tomorrow. Patrolman Walton of the West 135th Street Station was the complainant. Patrolman Walton received information that a rumpus was in progress at the Morse home. Arriving there, he discovered that circumstances justified the arrest of Morse. Morse, he said, resisted arrest and struck him in the left eye and gave him a terrible crack on the left leg with a piece of wood about 20 inches long and 3 inches thick. In Morse's hip pocket there is said to have been found a dangerous spring knife, the kind that files open by pressing a button. Walton said that Morse broke away from him, but after a short chase of fifty feet he was captured, subdued and placed under arrest. Morse's wife, Anna, was a witness to the affair. Aftermath of the Pan-African Meet (Continued from Page 1.) speaks good English and holds that the American Negro can help save Africa after he has worked out his own salvation. M. Dantes Bellegrade was the supreme orator of the the congress and his impassioned plea for the liberty of Haiti from the tolls of JRCH United States is one of the unforgettable memories of this occasion. At one time he was minister to France from Haiti. "Was the congress worth while?" The only deep and abiding impression—is the rich background of facts about the Negro given the delegates and the race pride that must be engendered as a result of such a wealth of information. The race problem was discussed with quiet confidence and with the emotional element almost at the saturation point. No plensure, no $50,000 pageantry could lure these delegates from the one thing that brought them to New York. Especially in the young men was discerned a new note of aggressiveness never heard in the old line leaders—an unyielding spirit which is bound to drag the Negro problem to the forefront in the years to come. The sanity of all solutions proposed—educational, economic, pacificism, missions, art and literature, interracial co-operation—showed a vital grasp of the problem.

Although several other cities fought hard for the next convention, including Baltimore, Montreal, Detroit, Kansas City, and Richmond, Chicago won easily and to the Windy City the Elks will go in 1928. The convention this year was less attended than any previous one in the past five years, though New York went to a greater expense than any other city has yet gone in order to bring the grand lodge here. Electric lights, brightly colored, and decorations numerous and lavish marked the manner in which the people of New York welcomed the visitors. Seventh and Lenox avenues from 145th to 125th street were beautifully decorated with electric lights, flags and bunting. The annual sermon Sunday night at Mother Zion Church was well attended. Dr. W. George Avant of Durham, N. C., grand chaplain, preached. Remarks were made by the pastor, the Rev. J. W. Brown, and the Rev. W. P. Hayes, pastor of Mount Olivet Baptist Church. Monday at St. Mark's M. E. Church the annual public meeting was held and the delegates and visitors were welcomed to New York by the acting Mayor, Joseph V. W. Kee. Smaller than usual, the parade Tuesday was spectacular, nevertheless. Fifteen thousand men and women, members of the orders, marched from Sixteenth street and Fifth avenue to 145th street in a pouring rain. Twenty-eight bands, four of them females, were in the line of march. Rain, the linx of this convention, spolled several of the affairs planned by the local committee for the entertainment of the visitors. At the grand ball last Wednesday rain 20,000 people filled the 369th Regiment Armory. The armory had been transformed into a beautiful ballroom. Late Friday night the proposition granting several raises in salaries was passed, among them being one raising the salary of the grand exalted ruler and that of the grand secretary to $5,000 per annum. In addition to the $5,000, the grand exalted ruler is granted $1,200 for clerk hire per year. The educational commissioner will receive $3,000 per year from now on, and the grand legal advisor will draw $1,200. The grand secretary's report showed a decrease in membership for the past year but an increase of $3 lodges. The treasurer's report showed a cash balance on hand of over $100,000. Judge Hueston, educational commissioner, read an interesting report showing that twenty-three young men and women had been helped through school and college the past year. Saturday saw the majority of the visitors gone, and Monday the decorations were removed from the streets of Harlem.

Mrs White told the Magistrate that he struck her when she stayed out one night a little later than usual. She wants to be separated from him, she said, and White agreed and apparently accepted the Magistrate's warning not to strike his wife again, and to stay away from her. "You take this to the Family Court," said Magistrate Douras, giving Mrs. White a domestic card; "and they will see to it that he supports you while he is away from you." White has the custody of their child and lives at 2373 Eighth avenue.

Sara Washington Usually a woman preserves her beauty until after marriage. Then she feels that she need keep her charms no longer. She allows herself to get careless about the hair, hands and figure, and spends less thought on her clothes. She becomes the slave of her household. For a time her husband may not notice this. Then probably as the result of meeting other women who have continued to cultivate beauty, the realization comes to him with a sudden shock. He forgets the wife has sacrificed her youth and beauty for him, and he returns to the other woman for what his wife can not supply. This is indeed very unfair, but it is continually being done, and most of us know it. So you (Mrs. Married-lady) can not afford to ignore the influence of looks. Look yourself over right now. Ignor there room for improvement. Those hands and nails are not as they should be, are they? Well, get busy, show some signs of taking care of your hair, skin and hands. Be well groomed at all times. Remember that your appearance is half your battle. Mr. Webb aroused considerable interest in telling of the habits of the people of the various countries. After he had completed telling of the many fine qualities of the people of Europe he said that America was the best. He said: "Europe is a good place to spend your money, but America is the place to make money." MAKES HAIR BEAUTIFUL A NEW APEX PRODUCT APEX LUSTORIA HAIR OIL AMZ HAIR CO.

The meeting was held under National Equal Rights League, and pastor of the Holy Trinity Baptist Church, pastor of the church, was my Dr. Harten aroused the audience thusiasm when he declared that "in over 300,000 Negroes in the city and Rights bill, we would be less than m tested, but took every lawful step While there are loose white men and whole race should not be punished Militant B'klyn Ministers Outspoken Against Attempt to Bar Negroes Harten Stirs Church Gathering With Fiery Speech William Monroe-Says Negroes Must Fight Jacobs Advocates Pitiless Publicity, Meetings and Money to Fight the Issue Despite the heavy downpour of rain Sunday afternoon, August 28, over 500 people attended the twoest meeting over the attempt at racial discrimination at Rockaway Beach, which was held at Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church. The meeting was held under the auspices of the National Equal Rights League, and the Rev. T. S. Harten, pastor of the Holy Trinity Baptist Church and national organizer of the league, was the principal speaker. Dr. W. C. Brown, pastor of the church, was master of ceremonies. Dr. Harten aroused the audience to a high pitch of enthusiasm when he declared that "in liberal New York, with over 300,000 Negroes in the city and backed by the Civil Rights bill, we would be less than men if we not only protested, but took every lawful step to maintain our rights. While there are loose white men and loose colored men, the whole race should not be punished because of them." Over 500 men and women attained the funeral services of Mrs. Emma Quick, 41 years old, which was held at Bridge Street A. M. E. Church on Tuesday evening, Aug. 23. The pastor, Dr. Edward K. Tyler, delivered the sermon. He pulled a high tribute to the life and character of Mrs. Quick, who had been a member of the church a number of years. Mrs. Quick., who was the wife of isham Quick, a trustee of the church, died at her home, 29 Fleet street, Saturday, Aug. 20, after four years illness. Mrs. Quick was a member of the Fannie Richards Tent of the J. R. Giddings and Jolliffe Union and the Bridge Street Church Relief Society. Representatives of both organizations were present and conducted their ritual. Interment was in the Evergreen Cemetery. 32, of 215 Varet street, who, Vitalo said, was acting suspiciously at Varet street and Bushwick avenue. Williams started to run when he approached, Vitalo said, and the detective gave chase. When caught and searched, the police say, a loaded 32 calibre revolver was found in Williams' coat. He also told of making personal investigations of the conditions at Stade in the Rockaways and made efforts to enter a conference with the principal white citizens of Rockaway but was refused a conference. He Harten read passages from the "Wave" and the "Argus," white publications which have done much to aid up ill-feeling against the colored people at Rockaway. The items from the "Wave" were exceptionally bitter. He made a strong plea for all present to read colored newspapers, as to be informed as to what the race is doing, and urged support for all activities conducted by Negroes. By doing this we will be able to have our own communities and will thus to a measure avoid conditions as now prevailing in Rockaway and other places. Mr. Barton scored the colored minis who had time to take part in this meeting but did not do so. He said: "I can preach about heaven as much as any min- ister, but there are times when we should preach about conditions on earth, and this is one of the Who Is This Preacher? Dr. Harten caused much speculation when he told of visiting a prominent white man relative to racial conditions in Brooklyn, and the white man told him that he Dr. Harten, was too radical and should be like a certain colored minor who catered to white people. Dr. Harten would not reveal his name, but stated that this minister had told this white man that Harten was too radical and if he did not stop the colored people of Brooklyn would run him out of town. While Dr. Harten would not reveal the name, he stated that this minister was practically selling our race in order to get into the good graces of white people in order to put over his program in Brooklyn. Dr. Harten was requested by our reporter to give the name of this minister but he declined to do so. He did say that if the reporter wanted to know he would read a certain weekly paper and there find out who the man was, so our reporter went over his files and there found an article which stated that a minister had advertised colored boys and girls at a local public school to be教养 to their white teachers and stay in their places. Dr. F. M. Jacobs, general secretary of the A. M. E. Zilon Church, delivered a fiery speech and urged all to get behind the movement not only with talk but with money. Dr. G. P. Kirton, pastor of the Boyle Memorial Church, spoke along shullar lines. William M. Trotter, national president of the league, was the new speaker. He also encouraged the movement and urged all to get behind the league in Brooklyn in order that it could be an instruction for good in "The City of Churches." Dr. W. C. Brown, in his closing remarks, stressed the thought that the which thing was a battle of brain, for the white man does not speak the language of Christianity when his welfare is concerned. He speaks the language of materialism, and we must do likewise. "We cannot solve any problem by protesting alone, but we must meet and plan to advocate pillless publicity to our workers, we must have confidence in ourselves, then the white man will have confidence in us," Dr. Jacobs concluded. Brooklyn Man Arrested; Charged With Gun-toting The vigilance of Detective Vitali of the Stag's street station this morning netted the police an alleged violation of the Billiton Law. Vitali arrested William Williams. Buried With Military Honors Long Service With Brooklyn Regiment Remembered by White Friends A number of white men, headed by Col. Thomas Fairpursiv, commander of the old 32d Regiment, now the 106th Infantry, and Capt. Eugene M. Cunningham of Company I, went to Manhattan Thursday afternoon, August 25, to pay the last tribute of respect to Charles Payne, 69 years old, who had been for 40 years an employee of the regiment. The services were held at Granville Paris' funeral parlors, 151 West 151st street. Charlie Payne's life with the 23d Regiment was analogous to Rudyard Kipling's Gunga Dhin, who was so loyal to his outfit. For 40 years he had been the guardian of Company I, looking after its accounts. In the Spanish-American War he saw his boys go out, and then in the World War he was the busiest man in the big armory on Bedford avenue, getting them ready. Time was when each of the companies in the regiment had its man, but this custom gradually ceased and only Payne remained a connecting link with the past. He was a custodian. A few years ago he was presented with a gold medal for his many years of service. Mr. Payne went with his boys to Peekskill this year and caught a cold which developed into pneumonia. Col. Failurservis had him removed to the Flower Hospital, in Manhattan, where he died Sunday. Mr. Payne was born on Long Island in 1850 and had at one time been active in a number of fraternal and civic organizations. He was a widower. The remains were accompanied by members of the regiment to Douglass, where taps were blown by the hugler of Company I, and his body was interred in the family plot there.

She was made unconcealed and was taken to the Coney Island Hospital, where it was stated that she had sustained a possible fracture of the skull. According to the police, Cave admitted that he threw the ascan, but only after the boys refused to move and had called him names.

Editor Says He's Threatened Dr. John Hewitt, Kern of Seaside, Far Rockaway, one of the leaders in the movement for the segregation of colored people and a ban against colored visitors to Rockaway Beach, claims that he received three telephone calls last Saturday night warning him to remain away from the anti-colored meeting called for Tuesday night and at which he is scheduled to be the principal speaker. These bring the threats against him, he says, to six, two Friday morning by telephone and one through the mail. Each warning, Dr. Kern said last week, was delivered by a different voice, and each voice was that of a colored man, he further claims. All calls were local. The warning through the mail, on a single sheet of paper written in a woman's hand in blue ink, read: "Beware; you life is in danger." The letter has been turned over to a Post Office Inspector by Capt. Dinan, in command of the Rockaway Beach police station. The corners of the paper were decorated with drawings of skull and crossbones, a dagger, a bomb and a pistol. Dr. Kern has been promised protection for the mass meeting of white residents in the Francine Club this Tuesday night, which will discuss ways and means to bring about segregation and the possible organization of an anti-Negro society. Capt. Dinan says he will detail a number of uniformed officers and plain clothes men in the club and about the grounds. Man Charged With Murder in South Caught Here MINEOLA, Aug. 30—Thomas F.

The crime was committed on July 18 last. Bryant was arrested in the Southern city as a vagrant, and was serving a thirty-day term at the Gulfford convict camp when he was identified as the man wanted here. According to Detective Emil Morse, of the Nassau County police, who brought Bryant back, the man confessed to the stabbing to death of Richards.

NINE Building operations have been going on in Jamica, by three concerns, and the next year will find few open lots left in the place which Brooklynites at one time considered nothing but a sparsely populated settlement occupied by a few Long Island Indians and deer. So rapid has been the strides of home ownership among the colored people in this particular spot adjacent to Brooklyn and the Big City, another concern which started to erect a number of homes for whites in one of the most desirable spots in Springfield, less than five minutes from Jamaica and not far from the exclusive St. Albans, with its beautiful golf course, has recently decided to turn, over the tract with its new homes to colored purchasers, carrying on the work and completing before the fall over two hundred new houses. There are a number of houses on the property already completed and bus lines run direct from Jamaica to this new Springfield development. We understand that the lots will be $30,100. The vicinity of these homes are already improved with sewers, paved streets, stores, school, and no assessments to be met. The new houses are larger than those which have been sold in Jamaica, with prices not exceeding more than five hundred dollars above the prevailing prices in the latter town for a much smaller home.

The judge told him he would not like to send him away for such a period because he would be released at a bad season. But the aged man still pleaded that he could not take care of himself.

A number of the policemen collected some money and bought a meal, but because of his condition he could not eat it. The servant kept him for the night.

Presbyterian Church, recently of the Jersey Journal, a white p that there is no truth in the a sue of The New York Age con church. The difference in opinion regarding certain matters between the old trustee board and the new is traced to the conflict over the purchase of a house for the pastor on Forrest street. The totalis of the purchase vary and involve differences of judgment. It is asserted by older members of the congregation that financial disputes have caused a falling off of members for the last three years. The old trustees feel that the old board was too obstinate toward the pastor's theories. It is asserted that the board was not formally notified of the meeting at which the election took place. During a recent visit from members of the Presbytery a meeting was called and the alleged illegal election took place. Some of the trustees were notified while others wer not The old trustee board consisted of J. T. Brown, president; James E. Abrams, vice-president; Henry C. Irving, secretary; Roland R. Abrahams, treasurer; W. H. Haney, Fred T. Smith and L. E. Mahry. The majority of the old trustee board while decidedly firm in their opinions have refused to make statements in an effort to keep the church from receiving any notoriety. A split is apparent but the proportions that it will assume will be decided at a meeting of the old trustee board this week, at which time a definite attitude will be expressed. The published story said "radical changes have recently been made in the affairs of the church," and former members of the board of trustees removed "because of lack of sympathy with Pastor Byrd's plans" intend to wage a campaign for Dr. Byrd's removal from the pastorate. The "radical changes in the church," said, are that the church, WK-11 NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY, AUG. 31, 1927 R.

Split Byrd, pastor of the Lafayette city stated through the medium paper published in Jersey City, article published in a recent is concernng an alleged split in his contly reincorporated under the religious Act, a change made necessary by reason of a trustee mortgage of $6,500 on the present church building, which the congregation wishes to have transferred to the new church. Under the rules of the Presbytery they could not take a trustee mortgage on a church incorporated under the Secularity Act and the relincorporation was made necessary. As far an opposition to erection of the new building is concerned, Dr. Byrd said the congregation as a whole, with the exception of the former members of the board of trustees, is heartily in favor of it. The six members of the board were not "removed" by the Presbytery, the clergyman said, but the congregation refused to re-eluct them. The new board consists of Robert S. Hartgrove, president; A. J. Bowley, secretary; W. C. Lee, treasurer; T. A. Sargagn, J. P. Saunders, James Coabard, W. H. Williams and Carter Atkins. In referring to the charge that his congregation is getting smaller, due according to the published article, because "he (Rev. Byrd) has outlived his usefulness to the congregation," the pastor said that since April the congregation had been increased by 15 and now numbers between 500 and 600 persons, instead of "less than a hundred," as stated in the article. The present Lafayette Prestierian Church building at Summit avenue and Ivy place is being renovated with the view of making the property more saleable, while actual construction of the new building will be commenced early in the spring. It was at first planned, Dr. Byrd said, to commence construction work this fall, but the contractor advised against this. The new church, property and parsonage when completed will represent more than $250,000, the clergyman said. A. - Edward C. Wells - Jersey Boy Wins Colliers Prize Edward Wells Wrote Best Letter on Censorship Edward C. Wells, 88 Turs avenue, Jersey City, received the first prize of $25 offered by Collars for the best letter on censorship. The contest was based on Pooth Tarkington's article, "When Is It Dirt?" More than 11,000 letters were submitted. Wells is a native of Jersey City. He was the first child of his school to buy a Liberty Bond during the late war. He is a lover of good books and lectures. He is active in the printing business in New York. The prize winning letter follows: No Censorship Wanted There is little doubt that the stage could stand a good cleaning up. I am not, however, inclined toward censorship as a very good method of doing this. If we seriously consider that the persons who would be intruded upon, or working would possess authority to omit anything THEY are fit, and that they would in all probabilities be seeking no particular qualification other than political gratitude, I think we would be rather reluctant to having, censorship imposed. Simple in the job of consoror apparently, we must be careful thought that it is a situation requiring the highest order of ability, and it is utterly one question to expect anyone of high standing to willingly imprison him gifts in such a calling. Even if it were to obtain the retain the book of eminent citizens, the book of censorship their work would still be of doubtful value. There are beats of single book of censorship could render only a sny judgment. And if this be so, a writer worse than useless—grave menace. If we try to cope with the situation by having many boards of censorship, all would be consolient. It may seem somewhat unfair that the entire theatre profession has a few mercenaries in the game have sunk to the depths of deception entirely unjustified. The feeble and irresolute efforts to clean up the stage have inspired very much public confidence. This accounts in no small degree for the growing sentiment of filthy shows to their senses. The captive of bringing the producers of filthy shows to their senses is the incredible effervency of some of the producers of lewd shows and the pervasive indictment as art. About the only thing they are sincerely concerned with is the art of immediate profits, recklessness, everything and everybody connected with the stage. Having no share in the profits derived from the subsistence and income of the show, they know their own interest, they will have no time in bettering conditions. Unless something is done to improve the fate, Consensorship, I fear, would您 agree to the evil, but it is public desecration lewd plays. Yet even if the theatrical profession is content to imitate its attitude of need, it is not need for a competence.

Both fighters went into the ring determined to win and from the opening round it was evident that the battle was going to be a thriller. Adams had never been stopped and many chilled that he just could not be knewd, Langford, however, believed otherwise. He attacked upon Adams' mid-section. He continued this for five rounds and in the sixth a pretty combination, a left book to the ribs and a hard right to the jaw, dropped the California for the count. Langford for a while last year was going like a house on fire, stopping Shuffle Callahan, Chief Elkhard, and other aspiring middle-weights. He was considered right in line for a match with Walker when Dave Shade stepped into his path and shaded him look into the crowd. Since Shade he fought with indifferent success and Thursday night was the first time that he has looked like the Langford of last season. BRUCE K.O.'S DOTY SAN DIEGO, Cal., Aug. 28.

CHELSEA BANK COPS LAST WEEK Last Wednesday, Aug. 21, the Chelsea Exchange bank defeated the United States Mgr. and Trust Co. in a game of baseball in Central Park. The Mortgage Company was completely outclassed by the Herlen bank's team. The outstanding men on the Chelsea Exchange team were: "Tony" Dinella, shortstop and captain; B. Fahner, third base; J. Hubschman, catcher, third base and pitcher; Earl Brown, pitcher. In fact, the entire team played remarkable ball. Only one error was made by them, and it was excusable, for the right-lder lost a difficult fly in a hard blowing Faber played a steady game at third. He gave the infield just enough balance to make a smooth working inner defence. "Tony" courteous around short in his regular style, knocking down hard drives and getting them to first playoffs. "Tony" to first Yankees. Klimke on first made some fine stabs--not making an error. The battery, Brown and Hibb schumann, worked like regular big-leaguers. Brown did not allow a hit. He had the mortgage boys baffled with a good assortment of curves and fast balls, with a floater sandwiched in now and then. His pitching was no doubt superb. He displayed the same ability that he showed at Harvard, where he pitched on the Varsity team for three years. Incidentally he pitched a no-hit game at Harvard. Hibbschumann worked Brown well, keeping him out of a hole on numerous occasions. Two men got to first, one on a walk, the other on an knee. The men worthy of mention on the Trust Company's team were: Gilman, shortstop, and Merle, third baseman. The Chelsea Bank team has two games this week; on Friday they play the Mortgage Company again and the Chase National Bank team on Saturday. Wahl will pitch against Mortgage and Brown against Chase.

Thousands of readers scattered all over the country will recall the student days of William Friend J. Leroy Jordan, who made the program to the nation's capital and attended Howard University, taking law and passing the New Jersey State bar examination on the first test. Since that time no other colored lawyer has passed, and J. Leroy is making good in Elizabeth, N. J. Truth to tell, he couldn't help but make good, for he is the particular side kick of that old rounder, Kirk Marrow, the only colored detective out his way. Mr. Jordan is president of New Jersey State Association of Elkia and district deputy of the Northern District. He was connected in a legal way with the recent injunction suit instituted by the New York Entertainment Committee of the Grand Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. W. He helped to kill the infamous "Grattian Law" of New Jersey, along with Grand Secretary George E. Intes. Mr. Jordan is also a prominent worker in the New Jersey Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. and finance office of the American Legion, Col. Paul P. P. and the recent state commission of the lodge held in Trenton, N.J., he nominated Irury E. Perton of Newark for the office of master-arms. Counselor Jordan is well known among the social set of northern New Jersey and few things of any importance among the people of the Monquito State take place without the popular young attorney and former Howard man being "among those present."

Bud Taylor? Yes you are—two champions who exu competitors like the Posey Jinx on "The worst he ought got was and yet always pregnant with truth PHILADELPHIA—That golden, glamorous world of the ring, squared circle of Kaulifhuis, has a new allib. You hear it when your visa-vis ploked neither wisely nor well. You read it when your favorite sports writer made a bad guess, as usual. Your friend, your expert says, "I thought he won, but the worst he ought got was a draw." It's the second guess of the gamblers, the sentimentalists, the form players, the "authorities." Yes, yes, I've said it too. In all the championship battles of recent years where the title changed on the combined nod of the judges and the referee there has been a loud squawk from the friends of the loser. And in non-championship battles the same condition has obtained. Take the 8d Terris-Phil McGraw fight of last week, for instance. "A draw wouldn't have hurt either of them," was wailed—by the friends of the loser. The Dempsey-Carpentier and the Dempsey-Firpo fights were two I saw in which there was no margin for a kick. (Both ended in knock-outs.) But have a look at what happened after the Berlenbach-Mo-Tigue, Berlenbach-Delaney, Sullivan-Ballerino, Flowers-Greb, Dempsey-Tunney, Flowers-Walker, Walker-Latzo and Lato-Dundee bouts. Following each of these titles quite a few newspapermen swore that the winner will be by chance. Personally, I scored Berly over Delaney, Grab over Flowers, Dempsey over Tunney and Walker over Latzo, as against the official decision. In each Instance, I was giving the defending champion the benefit of the doubt. With both men on their feet at the end of the fight and honors so even that there is a grave speculation as to the winner, "the worst he ought got was a draw." So say we whose nominees lack the necessary votes. The first Leonard-Tendler joust in Jersey City was "no decision" and Tendler won it, I thought, and so thought many others. But in the second meeting in New York the Leonard was Lefty Lew's master. No one had any kick about the Dundee-Criquil affair, for the French war hero was out on his feet at the end of the fifteenth round. The game has advanced beyond the roughnock stage of a decade or two ago and this is evidenced by the attendance of hundreds of women at every fight club. Wise commissions control the sport and try to crush dishonesty wherever it shows itself. Limited encounters and decisions rendered by two judges and a referee have played no mean part in this renaissance of boxing. And yet I sometimes doubt the wisdom of limiting championship bouts to a definite number of rounds. It's okay for all others, but I think a champion should be made to prove himself worthy of the laurel and the bay whenever he enters the ring. I think it should be a battle to the finish, and that finish one or the other contest on the floor. Then there would be less suspicion of crookedness, champion and contender would FIGHT, and the long-suffering, guilful fans would get something for the $2.20 up to $44.00 which had been invested in a seat. How many champions of today are considered the best men in their respective classes? Gene Tunney? No. Mike McTigue? No. Mickey Walker? No. Joe Dundee? Yes. Sammy Mandell? No. No featherweight champ. Bud Taylor? Yes. Fidel DeBarba? No. And there you are—two champions who exude class and stand out above their competitors like the Posey Jinx over Harlem. "The worst he oughta got was a draw," the prize allib of the ring, and yet always pregnant with truth. FLOWERS READY FOR BIG BATTLE Investigation Discloses That Kentucky Opponent Is Far From Being a Set-up Tiger Flowers makes his first appearance in the new Garden ring Thursday night after a lapse of a year and some days—August 19, 1926, to be exact—when he successfully defended his middle-weight honors against the late Harry Greb. Matchmaker Jess McMahon has paled him with Kentucky Joe Anderson in the feature of three ten-rounders. Flowers, who has visions of grabbing the light heavyweight championship now that Mickey Walker refuses to give him a return bang at the 160-pound mythical laurel, has a stiff task on his hands. Anderson made a fine impression on 40,000 old fans at the Yankee Stadium a few weeks ago where he fought Dave Shade to a standstill. The Anderson-Shade immigrazione was the semi-final to the Jack Delaney-Paulino scrap. Who is Joe Anderson who battles Tiger Flowers, former middleweight champion, in the Garden Thursday night? Aside from his glorious stand against Shade on the Jack Delaney-Paulino Uzcund card at the stadium little is known of Anderson. Johnny Dougherty of Delperville, Pa., who manages Anderson, supplies the information. Anderson is a former high school boy. He is married and has one child. 2½ years old. He first saw the light of day at Covington, Ky. He never boxed outside of Cincinnati and Covington until he celebrated his twenty-first birthday. In his first appearance in California Anderson became a popular figure overnight. He defeated Eddie Roberts and Leo Lomaski. He weighed 148 pounds for Roberts.

The sent-windup between Jackie Moore of New York and "Dummy" Williams of Denver was one of the fastest meeles ever seen in Kay-See. Throughout the entire ten rounds both boys stood toe to toe, but battled from one corner to the other. "Dummy" has long been considered the best boy on his weight around the thighs, his experience of Jackie was too much for the local lad, and he won by a clear margin. Both boys weighed 125 pounds.

Harlem 7826 RAIN WASHES OUT GAMES RAIN WASHES OUT GAMES Hilldales Among Teams to Meet Farmers in the Near Future Owing to the steady rain on Saturday and Sunday all the games scheduled to be played at Farmer Oval had to be called off. For the coming three-day weekend, which includes Labor Day, the Farmer owners have scheduled five games in the three days, bringing in as the Farmers' opponents two first-class white teams and one leading colored club. For Saturday's attraction the Farmers have secured the New York Fire Department nine. The visitors, since their last appearance in Glendale last season, have added several league players to their lineup and will doubtless give the Farmers one of the best games of the year. For Sunday's double-header the Glendale owners are bringing in from Philadelphia the Eastern League All-Stars, one of the best colored teams at the present time. This team during the past two months has been playing better than ever before. Sunday's visitors, although new in the section, are in great demand in the Philadelphia district. The All-Stars have in their lineup Washington, Downs and Allen, formerly of Hildale Club; Robinson of the Harriefburg Giants, Gillespie of Bacharach Giants, Gant of Philadelphia, Black Judy Gans, former manager of Lincoln Giants; Joe Wheeler of Homestead Grays of Pittsburgh, and Owens of Royal Giants. For Monday, Labor Day, the Farmers are scheduled to meet the Doherty Silk Sox in two games, which promise to be hard fought all the way. The Sox hope to even the series with the Farmers, who are leading with four wins out of six games played.

Dougherty A THUMB-NAIL AC- COUNT OF "SANDY" TAYLOR By D. V. KANE Just the other day I had a talk with a young man named Taylor—who, though he may be known so far, few hundredly by that name, is known to counties, fatic fans as 'Sandy,' bearer, and they need be told no more. I have often wondered how he came here with name 'Sandy' who has enlightened me in information name was given him by his grandmother in his early boyhood. Taylor back to his boyhood days, where he really started his ring career in preference to fighting on the street at a young age. This is where he was a matter of self-preservation and necessity. His has been a colorful career. His first job was a tailor, which he received the sum of $1, encouraged him and from that time on he worked in a factory, more experienced boxers, took hints from them and developed a style of his own, and fought on upward until well up in 400. During the years that he has passed in the roped arena he has taken on the role of a leader and won close decisions, and, although having never been completely knocked out, he has never registered against him, for which he offers no alibi, although in both instances he was not in the pink of humanity nor physically at for either combat. Taylor is a likable fellow, intensely interesting in whatever subject he has been asked to answer in words, classes himself as a student of humanity and adversity, and been a vain longing to become a lawyer, but somehow, things having not always gone aright, he has laid this ambition under his feet. Taylor pushed leather, simply because fighting him seemed second nature. In, street attire Taylor looks anything but aright, but anything that can be said to discredit his ability would grossly insult him. Taylor will remember his great encounters with such sterling warriors as Jack McVey, Sailor Darden, the Shade and many other brilliant performers. Taylor's hardest fight was with one McGregan, in New Jersey, where he was floored six times in three rounds. He claims that he was up and down so much that he felt like an elevator, but in the third round, after the sixth knockdown, he connected with his opponent and floored him and even then, while the referee, who chanced to be his opponent's father, counted off the fateful ten, he was on the verge of flopping over, he was that dogged tired. In making the statement concerning the fight Taylor did not boast of his rare gameness; he simply said that it was undoubtedly a lucky punch that knocked McGregan out and concluded by saying: "Anyway, I always try to give the spectators a run for their money—regardless." He related how he fought "Wild Man" Gould, a buttier who had compiled a string of twenty-five knockouts, making it a practice of trying unusually hard to whip every colored boxer he faced. Taylor at that time had a record of nineteen KO's and, to make a long story short, Gould whipped them all until he met "Sensit." Almost any day you will see this touring vehicle, the Harlem highways and chatting with his numerous acquaintances, but he would not think of him as a marvelous fighting machine, 128 pounds of punching power. That's "Sandy" Taylor. LANGFORD-MANCLIAN BOUT TONIGHT BOOT TOMORROW The Argonne A. A. posted until tonight. Tuesday, Aug. 20, its boxing bouts scheduled for Braves Field Monday night.

NO ORDER All Tailors nally Known" For 130th Street — NEW YORK Earningside NICKERS AND FLANNELS TO WEAR Edge From $30 Up BestAmusementPages in Greater New York TWELVE AT HOME and ABROAD Being Comments on Our Entertainers in All Parts of the World By R. L. D. WELL, now, what have we this day of our Lord August 21st in the year one thousand nine hundred and twenty-seven? Europe waving her hand to us through the Four Harbors change one without another to differ with some of the pupils of Americans spreading race prejudice in the old world. WE also have with us some opinions which will not go to all with the thin skinned, albeit it is upon us from time to time reproduce what is considered bad (by some) and what to be right, regardless from whence it comes. The judge ber of that famous order known as the I. P. P. (Puerile Praise and Publicity), we go from here and for the elevation of our own here and across the pond we wander to the next paragraph. HERE we find Burns Mantle, accepted in all the large cities of the United States and the hinterland, who is the master of his craft. Mr. Mantle, as you all should know, is a writer on the New York Times and someplendid things about about once in a while. This time he opens with the midnight show, that damnation of the city, and makes of this section of the city red-light district—at least to the extent of exploiting a people who are in the majority workers. Says Mr. Mantle: "The midnight show is an expanding enterprise. All colored reus now perform in the dark of the moon and can be seen in the daytime." "You can, being encamped the rest of the week, see 'Rang Tang' at the Royale after midnight any Wednesday or 'Afraauna', recently moved to national, after midnight any Thursday." "You can, being still wakeful and interested, see the picture 'Underworld' at the Paramount from 11am, on, and any time the vaudeville talk want to give a benefit without hurting the regular evening house show it at 12 and run it till 1am." "This early morning matinee habit is probably traceable to the night club influence. The fact that the colored reus out out out the night club idea. They may not be more rowdy club than the white shows, but they are at least more privately informal. For example, which I saw just night for the first time, is a 'spiral show' 'take'. In at the National and set it up in the middle of a stuffy dance hall with a buoyant free silhouette and it will be things a night club can relish for it." NONEBODY SHOULD HELP. "Strange the colored folk cannot get petroleum would be a real credit to their race. Theoretically they have everything to give that a revue needs. They have the stirring voices, the gifted dancers, the acrobatics, the acrobatics, the acrobatics of talent for the sketches. "But the thing they produce is usually in cheap imitation of a cheap act, in imitation of imitation. Once in 'African' they group themselves for the singing of 'Time Ain't Very Long' and the accompaniment to one of the voiceless Natives character songs called 'Smile.' "With a little intelligent direction a scene like this could be built up to equal any of those in which the Russians grouped themselves at Kurl's and the Germans at the German grouping COLORLESS SPIRITUALS. "If the Negroes try their spirituals, they do them by stringing an octet of professional singers across a stage barreles and singing to them. In what native groupings were spirituals first sung? "If they need a sketcher they lose one together as carelessly as a cheap barreles show is rehearsed and for them nothing but the basic idea to justify it. "Miss Waters, with a talent for singing character songs, even without a voice, creates it aside to do the rowdy lyrics, which brings the tone of 'Africanese' down to the level of the subbasements of Harlem. "There is nothing worth imitating in the white ruins of Kurl's, where the colored shows. Ask there a sympathetic Van Voorhees somewhere to dig it out!" REMEMBER, now, you have found praise in these columns, and if at some time somebody sees it fit to differ with the praise in the news, you have criticised out, the midnight show stunt was inaugurated when "Shuffle Along" was going great guns down at Daly's, and the praise in the news be entertained, and the midnight show came as the members of "Shuffle Along" acted as an indulgence to the colors shown into these midnight show. Carry them, of course, by reason of a desire of the less fortunate to hask in the limelight with the members of a real successful production. BUT—Oh, what's the use? Things of greater moment call. We parade on down to the next item, which will disclose that some of the British from their American cousins, but attempt to carry into London some of the ideas they relish in South Africa. Let us what we going on. From the Englishshire (Eastland) Evening News August 31. "NIGGER MUNIC FROM DEVIL" Reuters' Heathling Comment us. "Jim "Xigor's music comes from the "dileth" said Dr. Farnell, the rector of Exeter College, when welcoming the members of a summer school for teachers which opened at Oxford. Vulgar music might not be so criminal as murder, but it was far more threatened by our own law enforcement. our dreadful noises, our horrible moan, "laxx" music, "Don't take your muscle from America, or from the God, the source of all good music." The higher apostles of music must stop bad music because it was one of the greatest civilization. There was nothing more degrading than vulgar music, which was worse than poisonous drink. It was the summer school, said there was too much talk about music today and not enough making of music. We lived in one of those cranks who believed that we could not learn music unless we used our voice. We would and said that we should not put our music from the niggers, but from God.

Leonard Harper is the producer and the revue is entitled the "Pepper Pot Revue." Too much cannot be said in praise of Bill Robinson, who is popularly known the country over as "Bo-jangles." He is the biggest colored bendliner on the Keith circuit. He is said to be the highest-paid "single" entertainer in vaudeville. He is a perfectly-trained athlete, a remarkable dancer, a comedian and story-teller without a peer. Harper and Bolangles have been working for the past month staging the show, which will have its first and only showing at the Lafayette. The result is sure to be a revelation even to the most hardened theatre-goer. The company surrounding Bolangles is of unusual merit. Billy Higgins and Joe Byrd will supply most of the comedy. Earnest Whitman will lend his splendid speaking and singing voice. Pretty little Madeline Belt will go through some new numbers. Mary Preval and Ann Nichols will lead the chorus in some of the snappiest and prettiest dances which Harper has yet designed.

Gloria Swanson's latest picture at the Douglas Theatre, but they were obtained only after much difficulty. The script for "The Love of Sunya" called for scenes from the famous theatre. Several months before work was started in Miss Swanson's New York studio she sent Rene Hubert, her designer, to Paris to make motion pictures of the institution. Owing to an official ruling, the director of the Opera Comique at first refused permission for any pictures to be made but, after a special appeal had been made to the Minister of Beaux Arts, Miss Swanson's representative was allowed to use a "still" camer. Even then he was instructed not to use flashlights and, as a result, it was necessary to make the pictures through time exposures. One hour and a half was required in getting the picture of the main auditorium and two weeks were consumed in completing a series of one hundred photographs. swimmer. It is permissible to come alongside the swimmer for the purpose of supplying food when desired. On such occasion the rowboat must only stay alongside long enough to actually permit the giving of food and the swimmer must not touch the boat or oars or the person supply the food or nourishment.

Miss Rich is the star of "Dearie," the Warner Bros. production which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre next Saturday and Sunday for a run of two days. "Dearie" presents a glittering panorama of modern life. Broadway-playhouses, night clubs, mansions and tenements, hospitals, courts and college frat houssq make up the locale, and "Dearie" herself is the center of a brilliant company of players, among whom are William Collier, Jr., Edna Murphy, Anders Randolph, Richard Tucker, Douglas Gerrard, Arthur Rankin, William Demarest and David Mir, Archie Mayo directed. Miss Rich's star part is that of a mother who, having lost her fortune, takes up singing to keep her son in college. She sings the old favorite, "Dearie," winning the name for herself. The fact that she never let her son know that she is the cabaret singer of whom he hears so much causes complications which sweep the story on and up to a terrific climax. We Know Not, Brother A well known Harlemite has written in to ask if the Pittsburgh Courier meant the summer of 1927 or 1928 in staging the swim of a certain colored young lady down the Hudson River. The gentleman stated that he read a sensational article early in the spring in the above mentioned paper stating that under its auspices this brilliant achievement was to take place.

Miller started the 1928 theatrical season with his new show "Bad Habits of 1928" at the Lafayette Theatre last Monday, and judged by the enthusiasm with which the revue was greeted, the aggressive producer is off to a good start. "Bad Habits" pleased mightily, and sets a pace which other producers will have to travel fast to heat. Gertrude Saunders, Margaree Simms, Gallie de Gaston and Irvin Miller himself are the featured artists in this venue. Gertrude has lost none of the charm in singing and dancing which has kept her to the forefront amongst colored entertainers. She scores in her "specialty" and she leads the chorus of twelve girls with a vim which is most refreshing. Dainty Margaret Slimus danced to the unbounded delight of Monday's audience. She also sang two new songs in her most charming manner and sweet voice. Percy Colston and Archie Cross made a very good team and the work of the six dancing boys was as good as that of the best chorus which Miller has yet assembled for a show. The feature picture at the Lafayette for the first half of the week is "The Gallant Fool," starring Billy Sullivan. For the four days beginning Thursday, the photoplay program will include "The Heart of Salome." Alma Rubens plays the leading role in this underworld melodrama. "The Emperor Jones" Did Not Go at the Lincoln Place Where the Best in Theatricals Had Its Start Saw the Failure of O'Neill's Play When we speak of the drama and those little dramatic playlets, we always have in mind "Mme, X" as a big time attraction and "Bud Carey's Allib" among the smaller productions. When "The Emperor Jones" first made its appearance in 1916, Edgar M. Grey kindly consented to review it for the editor of these columns and when he came back to Harlem and voiced his opinion we knew that Mr. O'Neill's play would never appeal to this section. Hence when Mr. Robert Levy sought to revive "The Emperor Jones" at the New Lincoln Theatre, Julius Bledsoe in the title role, we had our misgivings and Monday afternoon the piece was not resolved in a manner to make the management feel satisfied that the venture could remain at the house. Monday night, the denouement came and a hostile audience in no mistakable manner made it clear that the famous Emperor could not reign even for twenty-four hours in a domain largely inhabited by people of his own race. The production was withdrawn and the Lincoln will return to the revue form of entertainment. No, Harlem hasn't changed so much, but the "Goat Alleys" and "Emperors" are not the kind of plays apparently wanted. The intellectuals of sun-down hue make believe they like them, but crude Harlem hasn't learned the art of walking out with no voicing disapproval. Too bad, wot? LOWE OFF FOR EUROPE LOS ANGELES, Cal., Aug. 26 (By the Associated Negro Press). James Lowe, famous actor, who played the star part in "Uncle Tom's Cabin," left for the East and a tour of Europe.

The Young Ladies We Take so Much Pleasure in Showing Above Constitute One of the Most Important Parts in "Harlem Rounders," at the Alhambra This Week. Violinist Leaving for England Next Month Will Continue His Studies of Medicine at Oxford University and Also' His Music On Saturday, September 10, G. Errington Kerr, lately a Bachelor of Science, College of the City of New York, will sail on the steamer Honeric for England, where he plans to enter Oxford University. He will enter the College of Medicine at the well-known British school. This gifted young man is perhaps better known in New York as one of the most accomplished violinists of his race. He has appeared in a series of brilliant annual recitals, at the same time maintaining a high average in scholarship at the City College. Kerr's efforts in the field of music will not terminate when he undertakes the exacting labors of a medical student, for already arrangements are being made through Professor Louis Dryedale, distinguished music instructor of London, for the debut of Kerr in London. Those of his well wishers in this city, who have watched young Kerr's development from the time of his arrival in this country from Panama, and in view of his past achievements, entertain no doubts as to his ultimately gaining name and fame abroad. "LUCKY NUMBERS" AT THE ALHAMBRA Beginning next Monday, the Alhambra stock company will present another big revue entitled "Lucky Numbers." Tim and Gertie Moore are heading a large cast in this now offering and from all reports this show will easily surpass what has been offered at the Alhambra during the past week of two. It has come to us that the people in the community has turned out in larger numbers than at any time since the Alhambra has been making a play for colored patronage, and this should act as an inducement of the management to redouble its efforts, which they most likely will, and even better shows will be the answer if success be in the offing. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, AUG. 31, 1927 "Bare Facts of 1927 (Revised Edition) By H. T. Bare Facts of 1827—A revue in two parts, Music by Otto Hensel, Lyrics by David S. Godberg Sketches staged by Charles De Lima. Presented by Kathleen Kirkwood, with a cast including Mary Green, Hensley Winfield, Richard Balline, Vera Loday, Lleyd Russell, Joseph L. Hattle and Kalsha. At the piano, Marfa Merova. Typically the intimate revue in all its best and worst aspects, the 1827 edition of "Bare Facts" was presented Monday night in the informal atmosphere of the Triangle Theatre. Beginning inauspiciously with a burlesque of the recent dramatic censorship, a skit reminiscent of all the horrors of amateur theatricals, rather amusing sketches followed at long intervals expiring scenes as scintillant and witty as my grandfather's old plug hat. Although many of the performers in this semi-tragic affair had better go in for stamp-collecting rather than dramatics, Mary Green did well as the charming young thing, and Hensley Winteld will probably be heard from later. With a fine voice, he put gusto and color into his performance and practically by his efforts alone raised the standard of the entire show. His interpretation of Negro spirituals, reminiscent as it was of Small's, was executed with feeling and a soupcon of art. "Africana" Features Being Sent Over the Air Now Every Tuesday evening at 7:30, over station WGBS, some feature of "Africana" is being presented over the air for those who tune in right after supper. This Tuesday the Africana Octette from the revue was one of the groups selected. They put over what is known as close harmony—singing with the orchestra and with delicately shaded tones, which never fail to register. Paul Bass, tenor of Africana, who sings "Clorinda," the love theme of the revue, contributes a group of popular numbers. Donald Haywood, who is now going the Count in the cabaret scene in the show, conducted the octette and played several of his more recent compositions. Mr. Haywood is also responsible for the musical score of "Africana." "Rang Tang" to Discontinued the Usual Midnight Show Miller and Lyles in "Rang Tang," having passed the 50th performance of the New York run at the Royale Theater last Wednesday night, entered the eighth week of the engagement Monday evening. This revue is peppered with good singing and fast stepping, and is featuring "Sambo's Banjo," the original banjo number on Broadway. Beginning this week, the midnight performance of Wednesday day evening will be discontinued and a popular-priced Wednesday matinee substituted. "Africana" Apparently Settles Down for Long Run "Africana," the revue starring Ethel Waters, has not dotted down its new home, the National Theater, to which it moved from Daly's. The cast remains the same with the exception of a few additions. The Two Black Dots have joined the cast and Donald Heywood, who composed the music and contributed the lyrics of the revue, is appearing in several scenes. Ben Lyon in "Dance Magic" at the Roosevelt Exceptionally Large Cast Will Be Seen in This Latest Kane Picture With a reputation for having received as detailed a production as is ordinarily given a two-million-dollar epic, Robert Kane's "Dance Magic," with Pauline Starke, and Ben Lyon heading an exceptionally large cast, is to be seen for the first time here at the Roosevelt next Saturday. It is a First National release. The new Kane picture is an adaptation by Adelaide Heilbron of Clarence Buddington Kelland's latest novel, recently serialized in the Ladies' Home Journal. Kane paid $5000 for the screen rights, after subbidding a number of other producers for the dramatic tale of conflict between New England Puritans and Manhattan jazz kings for the soul of Jebala, "the world's greatest dancer." Victor and Edward Halperin, who owned the screen rights to the story, made the picture in conjunction with Kane, the former directing, with his brother acting as production manager. Water-Carnival Outing a Success Many Visiting Elks on Excursion Trip Up the Hudson The first annual water carnival and boat excursion of the William H. Wallace Association to Forest View Grove on Thursday, Aug. 25, was attended by nearly a thousand people. At 10 a.m. the steamer left Jewel's wharf at the foot of Fulton street. There were a number of visiting Elks on the steamer and during the sall up the Hudson they were shown the various places of interest. There was dancing on the steamer and at the grove. The music was furnished by the 11th Regiment band under the leadership of Lt. Porter. William H. Wallace, the popular downtown business man and politician, is standard bearer of the organization. The officers of the committee were: G. Walter Lane, chairman; Walter Hardy, secretary; William H. Sykes, treasurer; Walter R. Lofton, sergeant-at-arms; Eugene Edwards, counsellor; F. Wheeler Morton, Milanda Moore; Edward Nixon and William Lucas.

P., Urban League and Organizations Akin Forcing Us to Remark, My Dear That Our Own George Schuyler Fell Off His Horse When He Opined That in Such Places the Races Mingle Freely, When Imbibing (Also Freely) and Dancing (Not so Freely) in His Mind A TERRIBLE fear has come over us. We find in our serious moments that we are coming to believe that those things which we accept and applaud from our learned writers we cherish because we want to believe them, and those things which we reject is because we do not want to believe. We have before us our Daily Amsterdam News of August 23rd and we find that brilliant satirist, Mr. George Schuyler, writing on certain conditions of our lighter side of life, saying: "The great point in favor of the cabaret and dance hall is social assets, the fact that they do what the church and the social organizations do not for they afford a meeting place for the individuals of the two races, where they can know each other, and good-will and good-humour. They are more valuable in breaking down racial barriers than all of the whoooping of the inter-racial leagues from one end of the country to the other. People who chat, drink and dance together are not apt to harbor ignorant and unreasonable prejudices or to indulge in lyrical ingles. The crux of the race problem in this country is getting white and black people to see each other as individuals, and not as race representatives. The cabarets and dance halls of Harlem are doing this to a larger extent, despite the fervent yawping of our distressing puritans." DENNING all around the column in which those few words appear, we find the "Cameraman" of the Prentice News Service commenting on Rudolph Fisher's "Blades of Steel" in the August Atlantic Monthly. Let us quote our "Cameraman": "The reading public has been regulated with two literary feasts this month from the pen of Rudolph Fisher, one "Blades of Steel" appearing in the August Atlantic Monthly, and the other "The Caucasian Storms Harlem" appearing in the American Mercury for the same month—and yet we are not initiated. "These two productions, differing essentially, tend to show the tenacity of our talented author. In the latter article he gives us a resume of his comeback to Harlem, in an absence of five years—and five years in these months. The author finds himself all at 'see.' He says: I was entirely unprepared for what I found upon my return. Upon entering one of the haunts, he says, the old familiar plankety-plank meet me from below. I looked about seeking familiar races. What a lot of "fays!" Then I gaped; I was told that I had been in the city for a night club. Then I wandered from night club to night club. I tried the Nest, Small, Couple's Inn, the Cotton Club and other rendezvous of Harlem. There was no mistake, he says. The best of Harlem's black cabbages had changed their names and turned Nordie." INCIDENTALLY, let us jump back to the Monday issue of the Daily Amsterdam News and we find Mr. Schuyler ending his first paragraph, written under the caption of "The Soap Lox," with a few lines that interrupted us. Mr. Schuyler is speaking of the tendency of certain people to always damn the city, but he does not mention the races of Colombo to "visit the cabaret and shine halls, where the two races mingle freely to the syncopated strains of jazz orchestra." NOW we have Mr. Edgar M. Grey speaking in the issue of August 26th, Daily Amsterdam News, under the caption of "Intimate Glimpse of Harlem." These cabbages do not cater to colored folk. Not so long ago one of the lady writers of the Neuro press was refused admission to one of these sacred places. She protested, but in no avail. The majority of these cabaret owners do not far away in deny admission to the residences of the comedy troupe, but the writer is not afraid to present his petroleum as a way as to discourage them from freestanding the cabbages. WHAT are we aiming at in our crude and non-intellectual way is that Mr. Schuyler, in pointing out the paradise on earth which is Harlem, fell off his horse in one of his most important points, for none would deny that as a race we have a strong feeling to the lighter things of life and he touched a warm people and dance halls, shown in the image we mean how is it possible for people to mingle freely when some of us are barred and the others among us fall to attend these places? AS for the dance halls, where we are supposed to mingle so freely, be it known that such is only in certain occasions, few and far between, and on such occasions we find a few of the long-haired men and short-haired women of Greenwich Village, both carrying a capacity for the guzzling of gin. The Students' Literary Guild is planning to give their first reception and set this week. The club is the latest of Brooklyn's many social and literary organizations. It has for its purpose the studying of Negro art, science and music. PRIVATE TUTORING PROFESSIONAL All Subjects—Reasonable Prices Dray and Erasing Reduction for Classes R.

Grauman, if you must know, was a great character in the little town in which we were born. From early childhood to late, very late, manhood he stood as a tumbling block to the old man, who was a man who had died at a ripe old age. Grauman could put away more liquor of any make or vintage than any three man or women, regardless of their nationality.

Which brings us things to accept what he desires to believe if the articles in question were placed before him.

EVILYL GREENE Sunday, Monday Nights REHABILITATION Friday Night And Other Mediums Messages to All NEWS OF CHURCHES AND FRATERNITIES With the I.B.P.O.E.of W. -By Charles Marill POST-CONVENTION THOUGHTS. Those who attended the twenty-eighth grand lodge session of the Biks must have been impressed by the disorder attendant at all times. The sessions were by the large number of delegates, the sessions are too large and the remedy would be to reduce the number of delegates to each lodge. At present one delegate for each one hundred members or fraction thereof over the one hundred is allowed. This makes for an unwieldy aggregation and permits politicians of the order to jam regulation. Laws are proposed to use closures and delegates sitting the third and fourth row vote, knowing absolutely nothing about which they are voting. A better plan probably would be one delegate to each 150 or 200 members. Such a plan would make for better order and certainly would be useful in the various lodges for the sending of delegates. WILSON'S SUCCESSOR. Who can wrest the grand exalted ruler's crown from J. Finley Wilson? One thing was demonstrated beyond a shadow of doubt at the meeting that man who succeeds Mr. Wilson will be chosen than the present past grand exalted rulers. It has been seen positively that not one of the past rulers of the order can ever come back. Nor does it seem that J. Dalton will be the next grade. Who then can it? it will have to be some one developed, from the present Finley Wilson coterie, to begin with, and it will have to be some one who can play to the masses in just such a way that Will was played to them. The man who has played to him in the high-brow will never make it.

Once again we register our objectives in holding the grand sessions of meetings. We registered the same objection following the session in Cleveland. The necessary actions and the necessary attendants which men are have to take them, especially at big gatherings, a chic highly improper for the holding of such meetings. In 1923, in Chicago, the sessions were held in a theatre. Likely the Wily City will still attain their sessions there next year. Let us hope so. HENRY LINCOLN JOHNSON MONUMENT A monument will be erected at Washington, D. C., in memory of the late Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, one of the best known Nescafé drinkers. The idea to do so was discussed at the recount grand lodge session of the order. It was decided that the monument would be erected by voluntary contributions from the community, including the meetings. Among the cash contributions made Saturday morning was $100 from Caspar Holstein and a pledge from Monarch Lodge for $200. Given the amount of the objection, the $5,000 granted the New York Convention Committee for money spent by the New Yorkers in the interest of legal matters in connection with bringing the convention here will aid the oral testimony of the objection. Not a single objection was raised to granting this amount. As if to rub it in, the rain that spoiled so many of the convention activities continued all day Sunday, marrying for many the trip to Camp Cedar Creek in the 1958 Regiment. New York National Guard, is now in camp. Likewise, the dedication of the new home of Pallisade Lodge at onkers was spelled by the rain Sondra and Michael Wilcox, and those of his staff who were still here were scheduled to dedicate the building after a parade through the streets of Yonkers. They provided models of the 11th street station house report that they did not make a single arrest during the entire convention week of any person connected with the fraternity. They said that it was a man who had been encountered, and added that it was all like a May party. Brooklyn Lodge's open house last Friday night attracted a fine audience, and made the journey across the bridge came back loud in their praise of the Brooklyn boys' hospitality. Exalted ruler Joseph M. Washington exalted ruler, together with the officers of the lodge, saw to it that "a good time was had by all." VISITORS ENTERTAINED.

The mortality report made by Dr. William J. Tompkins of Kansas City was the most interesting and most comprehensive grand lodge saslon. Dr. Tompkins's report showed that Negroes are still living in bad homes, particularly in the South, where the white health authorities, the survey conducted by the Health Committee of the order shows that the percentage ofidentified white higher among Negroes than it is among whites. "Undor present conditions," Dr. Tompkins concluded, "the tubercular Negro hasn't the first semblance or a chance. It is a severe mental health and strength among Negroes that they have survived at all." When the survey is completed it will be sent to every public health department in the state. Dr. Tompkins said, and an appeal will be made to legislatures for remedial legislation. At the same time pamphlets selling Negroes what they can do to their own health conditions will be broadcast. Mother Zion Church The Rev. D. Ordonde Walker, pastor of St. James A. M. E. Church, Cleveland, was the preacher at Mother Zion last Sunday morning.

None of my readers out of a limited knows where Winters Falls is. Neither did it until my itinerary brought me here. It is located near the northwest border of the State and was brought into prominence by the oil development which has brought a boom to so many Texan towns. By some strange coincidence all walks are frequently found on Negro farms. The owners receive the usual royalty which has suddenly transformed many a family from poverty to affluence. But in too many instances they were not ready for their newfound wealth. One hears of but few instances in Texas where it has insured to substantial personal or racial benefit. Either the white custodians reap the major advantages or extravagance or poor judgment brings on the usual results. I have had an excellent opportunity to study Texas conditions during the past two weeks. During this time I have covered the principal points in the state and have conferred with men in all walks of life who know most about local conditions. There are absolutely no racial troubles in the South, if one is to judge by the assurances which come to him from all sides by citizens of the several communities. I can recall visiting forty cities in the South and in each I am assured that this particular city is the best community in the South; that the relation between the races is peaceful, friendly and mutually helpful. The local citizenry seems to know nothing either to quickly forget the fierce racial outbreaks of which we of the North read so much in the daily and weekly press. A nationally known citizen of one of the greatest cities in Texas told me that he could not believe the accounts of outrages and atrocities which he reads in northern Negro presses, as they are entirely out of harmony with the observation and experience of a life-long residence in the South. I attribute much of this optimism and local patriotism of the Negro to his pacific temperament and long suffering and forgiving and forgetting disposition. The late Dr. W. T. Walker, perhaps the greatest preacher that the Negro race has produced, need to say that whenever the Negroes of the North held an indignation meeting for the outrageous treatment of the southern Negro, the southern Negro in turn held a prayer meeting for the pathetic impotency of his northern brother. I addressed a N. A. A. C. P. meeting in El Paso, jubilant over its fortuitly won laurels in the primary victory. But as a general thing one may converse for three hours with the normal Texas Negro, in high or low rank in life, without one word about disfranchisement, segregation or Jim Crow care. After waiting for a sufficient lapse of time for vol.

When people assume to entertain socially they are not expected to give a false showing of themselves or of their means.

I had inwardly to provoke comment by direct query. The non-chalent reply was invariably in this effect: "We have not yet had an election since the decision." The school system in Texas is unusually good. There is an abundant educational fund in which the Negro shares fairly well. The graded teachers are well paid in all parts of the state, high schools with a four-year course and of standard curricu DEAN KELLY MILLER lum are maintained in every city of considerable Negro population. of considerable Negro population. The secondary schools usually bear the name of Booker T. Washington, although in two instances they are known as Kelly Miller High Schools. The state authorities are alert to the requirements of the education of the Negro. The legislature has just appropriated $600,000 for the state college at Prairie View. I addressed one thousand eager, anxious teachers in attendance in summer session to improve their preparation for their life's work. The requirements are being steadily raised. Teachers from all over the state are attending summer schools at Chicago University and other northern institutions. Texas and North Carolina take the lead among southern states in the field of education. I am chiefly impressed with the activities of the fraternal orders in Texas. I presume that they are more energetic here than in any other state. The Masons, Odd Fellows, Pythians, and Pilgrims, a purely local order, have built great temples costing something like three hundred thousand dollars each. The total assets of the fraternal orders of the state are estimated at five million dollars. The chief motive for joining these orders is to provide for decent funeral arrangements. The average fraternity funeral. I am informed, costs around two hundred and fifty dollars. It has become a matter of psychology. A great funeral display has captured the imagination of the masses. Burial without funeral ceremonies has been considered the height of disgrace in all ages. To be denied the rites of sequitur is a stigma abhorrent to every Greek. The Catholic Church exercised control of the conduct of its devotees by threats about how she sacrificed her youth for me and this was all the thanks she gets. What's your opinion? A. M. Dear A.

The Negros often think more of the manner of passing from the world than of the mode of living in it. Insurance to protect his family from distress in case of the unexpected death of the head of the household in much less appealing than deceased burial after death. Many of the fraternity members have it understood that there are to be no Fords in their funeral processing. This inordinate variety for pompous burial, beyond the limits of common decency, springs from a vicious psychology. Death is a solemn sacrament which the church has always exalted into the chief ceremonial in the experiences of the deceased. This concept grew up in a reverential age, when religion related itself chiefly to the world beyond the grave. But as religion is becoming more and more a matter of living in the world that is, as well as or perhaps rather than supernatural existence in the world to be, the process of transition will dwindle in relative significance. Ebert Hubbard says that a smokestack is as sacred as a church steeple—Booker Washington declares that a bath tub is as sacred as a coffin. They were both unspiritually minded materialists. And yet they point out the direction in which the world is moving. The Negroes of Texas and of the nation, for that matter, bury too much money in the ground. The ceremonial motive obscures the economic waste. In case of the Negro the glaring discrepancy becomes ridiculous. To live in an alley in poverty and want, accumulating all the while sumptuous insurance for a pompous funeral display, verges on the outer rim of absurdity. The fraternities work in close sympathy and affiliation with the church. The prominent minister is called upon to preach the annual sermon when all of the pump and glory of the order is on display. The funeral always takes place from the church where the minister has the conspicuous role. Membership in these orders is based upon and presupposes acceptance of basic principles of the Christian creed. The church and the fraternal orders are both calculated to appeal powerfully to the imagination of a simple minded and highly impressionable folk. In Texas, as elsewhere, the Negro spends extravagantly upon the burial of the dead, but pays little or no attention to the upkeep and beautification of the graveyard where the remains are to rest. I have asked before and now repeat the query, "Why is it that the race neglects its burying ground?" I will return to the consideration of this query at another time. I had intended to take up the question of secret orders as a field furnishing an outlet for the talent for leadership and ambition for power on the part of those who are shut out from the political domain. But this also will be taken up at another time. I have still another week in Texas—why not wait until my itinerary is completed to dilate upon my observations? One does not have to eat a whole cake to tell how it tastes. that she improves each time. It'll hurt her, believe me; of course you can't expect her to become aylph-like overnight but if she diets—and it won't hurt her any—and exercises, she'll lose weight. Make her feel ashamed of herself. She must have some pride. There's no excuse for her looking sloppy. A woman can't afford to become untidy. There's too much competition. EGYPY ANN.

In most cases they may be prevented or, if early detected, by care and treatment, the clinical symptoms of pain, discomfort or inability to "carry on" your work or play can be completely eradicated. What are the early symptoms of beginning trouble in heart, blood vessels or kidneys? They are symptoms which in many cases you yourself cannot detect. The urine must be examined by chemical analysis. The blood pressure must be taken by an instrument of measurement used for that purpose. The heat of the heart must be flashed to by an instrument called the stethoscope. To wait until you get "in misery," a pain, some palpitation of the heart, dizziness, weakness and fatigue, is waiting too long before you start your treatment or change your mode of living. By a careful medical examination at least once every six months the doctor, by the scientific methods I have mentioned, can detect early signs of trouble. Traces of albumen in the urine, an increase or decrease of blood pressure, a slight murmur or irregular heart of the heart, a detection by inspection of thickening of the arteries, if present, any of these he will detect, and he will point out to you measures for treatment and methods of right living. Every individual is different. Everybody cannot act alike. What kills some people does not kill others. Some people are congenitally weak in certain structures of the body. Because one person smokes and does not develop heart or arterial disease does not mean that you can do the same. The nerves and the endocrine chain of glands in some people are easily affected by the stress and strain of ordinary life. In others "all is well on the Potomac." This matter of diet, exercise, sleep hence must secretly contrive to meet the past due charges for luxuries consumed. Of course, there are "red-letter days" in the homes of people of limited means; pathos is never more delicately suggested than when the poor man forgets his poverty in the wealth of a home-gathering and a feast of remembrance. Say, for instance, a wedding, the Christmas holiday season, or a special celebration for some worthy member of the family. There is a time when all the emergencies of the poor and usually frugal household may be concentrated to prepare for the occasion of feasting and rejoicing. But the folly of living beyond one's means and spending money lavishly on a few ostentatious "spreads" has no redeeming points. The guests are not at all deceived. It is a social blunder, and the host makes himself a legitimate object of popular criticism. The most expensive entertainment given by anyone should be merely an incidental illustration of his already recognized financial means. When people who are known to have only a moderate income give social affairs at home disproportionate to their daily mode of living, the people who are supposedly enjoying themselves instinctively question their taste and good sense. Hospitality is not measured by leaves and fishes. The personality of the host decides whether or not it is an honor to be his guest. If you should review your mental diary, you will find that many of your most enjoyable Arre By R. A. Arrows By R. A. ADAMS Beneficent Phase of Heredity HEREDITY is a fact; it is demonstrated and an inescapable fact, attempts at refutation to the contrary notwithstanding; but there is a beneficent phase which outweighs the detrimental phase of it. Often we quote "visiting the iniquities of the father upon the children," but even ministers are wont to omit the qualifying clauses "unto the third and fourth generations of them that hate Me, and showing mercy unto thousands of them that love Me and keep My commandments. HEREDITY is a fact; it is demonstrated and an inescapable fact, attempts at refutation to the contrary notwithstanding; but there is a beneficent phase which outweighs the detrimental phase of it. Often we quote "visiting the iniquities of the fathers upon the children," but even ministers are wont to omit the qualifying clauses "unto the third and fourth generations of them that hate Me, and showing mercy unto thousands of them that love Me and keep My commandments. In this connection it is necessary to explain that it does not mean that God would ever arbitrarily blame children or punish them for the sins and mistakes of their parents. This would be so palpably unjust that no reasonable individual could accept it, even from God Almighty. But it means that the sufferings of the children as the result of the misconduct of their fathers would be the natural result of a natural cause—that disease, inculinations, dispositions, physical, mental and moral weaknesses are inheritable. "Showing mercy unto thousands of them that love Me and keep My commandments" means by right living even children of erring parents can modify, in their own lives, the inherited weaknesses and the consequent punishment. "Them that hate Me" means those who ignore the warnings and pleadings and deliberately walk in the footsteps and work has to be regulated for each individual's physical status. Each one must know how far he might go in the taxation of the physical and mental powers. Examination and consultation with your physician at least once every six months will prevent you from either "wearing out" or "rusting out." Certain rules, are, however, necessary for one to know in this matter of preventing chronic degenerative diseases. Living habits: Avoid over-eating of rich and highly seasoned foods, and especially those foods containing high protein substances such as eggs, meat, fish, fowl. These should be eaten sparingly. Avoid overweight and too little exercise. Too much exercise of a prolonged and exhausting nature or excessive athletic sports should be carefully avoided. Do not use too much alcohol and tobacco. Avoid an excess of tea and coffee. * Avoid an excess of highly-seasoned or highly salted foods. Do not use too much salt at the table. Avoid diseases of vice, syphilis, gonorrhea. Avoid excessive mental strain and prolonged emotional excitement. Life must not be one-sided. With work must go some play, in the proper proportion. evenings were spent at a well-planned, but simple and humble family entertainment. The finest hospitality is that which welcomes you to the fireside and permits you to look upon the picture of a home-life so little disturbed by your coming that you are at once made to feel yourself a part of the little symphony—the rare bit of color just needed to complete the harmonic combination. The character of the entertainment should never be such as to involve a total departure from the regular household customs. The quality of elegant serving and mannerly eating should be just what is every day observed at the family dinner of the social household. The guest should get a correct idea of the home atmosphere of the house, even though it be slightly concealed by the formality and reserve which the presence of strangers naturally inspires. Whatever your entertainment, rich or poor, remember first of all to give yourself to your guest; then if he is appreciative he will not criticize your simple dinner, nor grumble at the flavor of your wine. It is delightful to find oneself financially able to entertain luxuriously, but one must dismiss the idea that a graceful and acceptable hospitality depends on material things. Some one reported 'that at a banquet in the Athens of America "the menu consisted of two baked beans and readings from Emerson." Perhaps this is a grotesque exaggeration, but truthfully, material things are of secondary importance on all social occasions. is demonstrated and an in- at refutation to the contrary there is a beneficent phase total phase of it. the iniquities of the fathers ministers are wont to omit the third and fourth genera- and showing mercy unto Me and keep My command- physical, mental and moral weaknesses are inheritable.

"Them that hate Me" means those who ignore the warnings and pleadings and deliberately walk in the footsteps ... Writer Ankn What In Wrong With DURING the month of August New York, or rather Harlem, was given an opportunity to compare the various sorts of leadership which are operating among the Negro division of the American nation. There came to Harlem two conventions, which represented leadership on two distinct planes of Negro social arrangement. There was a convention of those educated and enlightened persons, who have reflection enough to desire to come to some understanding of the character of the general and international phases of the race problem, and a convention of those who, being devoid of such capacity for reflection, are not interested in understanding it. The first convention, the Pan-African, under the frank leadership of the editor of the "Crisis" and his fellow thinkers and trained social educators and workers, was decidedly the more important of the two; the second, the Elks' convention, was made up of the rank and file of the masses of Negroes from all parts of the United States and from several foreign countries. Its leadership is composed of the distinctly less educated, yet the most sophisticated and understanding men of the race; those who have had no education at all, like the Grand Exalted Ruler, and those who, having had some form of education, desire to earn a living. At the center of this second sort of leadership are to be found men of rank in the political and religious fields. They are those with whom the wise and all-seeing J. Finley Wilson has surrounded himself. He is able, because of his wide understanding of the mob, to go out and bring in the means of subsistence to the professional politicians and preachers and other professional leaders. On this occasion he had as his head-men bishops of Negro churches, political job holders, doctors, lawyers of national repute, and orators of the first water. They lend to his leadership the educational tone, and he compensates them by giving them the chance to paddle their wares to the great masses upon occasions such as the late convention. In return, he exacts precise loyalty from them and relied upon their orations and other vocalisms to return him to office each year. To see the man in action is to have revealed to one the secret of power among the Negro masses, and to cause reflection upon the failures which occur in the leadership of the class of men who comprise the direction of the Pan-African Congress. After a close study of the two sorts of leadership in operation, as was afforded by their recent meetings in Harlem, the writer is of the opinion that the educated Negro shall always be ineffective as a leader of large groups of the Negro race. His leadership appears to lack the essential qualities which excite the loyalty and disturb the emotions of the Negro masses. of their wicked and robellous fathers! The progress of the world is due largely to the beneficent workings of heredity, for, otherwise, every generation would begin largely at the same place and did its predecessor and human development, if not impossible, would be infinitely slow in its progress. Considering the matter from this point of view, we should thank God for the benefits of heredity, for the privileges of blessing our children long before they are born, for the privileges of modifying the weaknesses inherent when otherwise would be doomed to inevitable circumstances. Moses was the son of a woman whose faith in Jehovah stands out most prominently. John the Baptist was the child of devout parents. Samuel was descended from parents both of whom were very deeply religious. Paul, in writing to Timothy, expressed great hope for him and faith in his integrity. He wrote: "When I call to remembrance the unfearned faith that is in the, which dwelt first in thy grand mother Lois, and thy mother Unice; and I am persuaded that is in the also." If one should take the trouble to trace the lineage of the great preachers, reformers, martyrs, statesman, writers and all contributors to human progress and fearless defenders of truth, it could be easily demonstrated behind them were long lines of intrepid, contributory ancestry. I would not minimize the seri- MAGAZINE PAGE BY EDGAR M. GREY One enters the various churches in which the sessions of the Pan-African Congress are held, and at once the coldness and general attithe of the situation is apparent. The good and learned Dr. Jufunda is at the moment delivering his splendidly eloquent address in the assembled delegates and spectators; his well modulated voice rises and falls in true cultural prelation, and the thoughts flow from his mind in words which paint a splendid and almost incomparable picture of the expression which the Negro has suffered at home and abroad. He retires to his seat while his hearers applaud. At once, from the motionless and almost Edgar M. Grey frigid audience arise criticisms of his meanings and phrases. Quite without time to have digested one-half of the historical and factual information which he has just imparted to them, they rise to their feet, grashing and slashing at his every word. In the end nothing has been accomplished and they go home to meet at his next call. During the deliberations the doctor is courteous, even pleasing, in repartes and response to the empty mouthings of his critics; he laughs joyfully, and at times sardonically, at the peculiar tangled character of the thoughts which are expressed by the obstructionists, who follow all serious movements like the bird of prey about a carrion. They succeed, however, in leaving the leadership of an intelligent man flapping at the mast and floundering about for wind in which to sail upon its way. The chief difficulty with intelligent leadership seems to be that it lacks the capacity to be tyrannical; it permits too much discussion, especially the sort that is common. Then, too, it falls, because of the restraint, which comes as a result of mental discipline and training to muster the nerve which stimulates overstatement and blah. It proceeds from the logical but fruitless proposition that truth is powerful in itself, and does not need the flowery paintings and trappings of the braggart to establish it. This is a mistake which is fatal to intelligent leadership. To say to a Negro that so and so is true leaves him without a grand mental picture and robs his imagination of its proper function. He wants to be told that so and so is the greatest truth of all time. Wilson, on the other hand, has no time for argument and discussion. He raps his critics down, threatens them with expulsion from the Romanish sanctuary, and proceeds to impress them. As Emperor Jones says, in O'Neill's play: "These heah bush Negroes the show; I gives 'em de show an Ah takes de money—the long, long green all de time, dat's ma." Wilson's leadership is based ousness of heredity; the responsibility of parents for the future of their children; the fact that each generation owes it to posterity to live so as to transmit good and not evil to posterity; and thus encourage indulgence. So, now's the time for you to do Whatever good you have in view, And this the time for you to say Kind words to cheer along their way Those who are burdened and distressed, Blessing and also being blessed, Proving yourself an angel, sent To comfort in discouragement. "J. Finley Wilson Is an Excellent Moh Leader" not upon reason, but upon force, or rather a show of force, and the number of associates whose high-standing names and titles keep his hearers in constant awe. He enters the rooms of the convention bejeweled and bedecked in all sorts of trimming and loud looking clothing. He takes from the table before him a large mallet, strongly made, and proceeds to pound upon the table until order is had, and a pin drop might be heard without ear-straining. Then he calls his strong men to the platform and gives out his instructionas like a Napoleon directing his officers before the hour to commance an engagement. They, in turn, hustle about collecting information as to the state of mind of the "boys," and return in military order to report and be assigned to strategic positions. Anyone who is not in harmony with his views, is, if he would speak, bawled down. Session after session is called and the program of the leader and his cronies is discussed for the "good of the order." At the proper time the assistants proceed to work up the general membership, and the time is then ripe to re-elect the big boss, J. Finley Wilson. This being accomplished with dispatch, the next thing in order is the passing of the vast sums of money for the maintenance of the "nice boys" in the interim between conventions. This done, the big convention is adjourned and the delegates are on their way home, rejoicing. Back of all this, large numbers of men and women are massed together under one banner; large sums of hard American money are collected and placed at the disposal of Negro banks in the South; millions of dollars of real property are invested in, and the emotions of hundreds of thousands of the Negro masses are allowed play and exercise. A place is secured to each and every Negro who belongs in the affections of every other Negro who also belongs. In this way real progress is achieved. It lacks proper direction, it is true; but who will deny that this is more than any leader of the college brand has up to this time achieved? All that would be necessary, in the case of the Elks, would be the vision of some of DuBois' henchmen. The material is now there, awaiting the proper direction by someone whose capacity for social and economic planning is above the level of the savages; and great good would spring from the leadership of this splendid mob leader, J. Finley Wilson. Of course there are men and women who now enjoy the friendship and confidence of Wilson at the present time and who might advise him as to what was proper and right to do with the organized material which he now has. But recalling Marcus Carvey, Napoleon and others of this ilk, it might be said that Wilson also would be suspicious of intellect and would seek to destroy it. After all is said and done, the way seems clear for the conclusion that any mass movement among Negroes must come from the brain and antics of the mobocrates, rather than from the reasoned position of the instructed person. But I do declare that a study of this question in this way will most certainly vindicate the judgment and the justice of God and afford enlightenment and courage and hope to many who have seen this from only one point of view! 6.

AIXTEEN "Get Converted; Then Join Church" --- Visiting Pastor From Cleveland Speaks at Mother Zinn By CLIFFORD L. MILLER. "No man has had the right to join any church as ordained conversion," said Dr. Iris to Father of Cleveland of the New Mother Zion Church just Sunday morning. He is the pastor of the St James A M. K. Church of Cleveland, one of the larger churches of that city he came to New York as a delegate both to the White Convention and the Irish American Congress. His text was from May 26, 1811. "At Midday I saw a light and a Voice. I find Fallen I heard a Voice. He began by compilating that Methodism is losing its enthusiasm, and old time convents were looked on with favor. Gentlemen of the church, too highlanded to accept the simple way Apostle Paul came to Jesus by seeing a light. Listening to bank reviews and "lightliness" features by highbrow will get no one into the kingdom of God. Every man needs a change of heart to see the light of God." "God has many ways of revealing Himself to different people. One needs His lightning language, another His thunder, while still another His 'still small voice'. It is the business of the Christian when once he has heard the voice of God to speak God's language in the redeemed life he lives, so the unloved one is not in danger if something you live by, religion saves one not in but from his sins." He accented the elites of Israel who are satisfied with "an up and down religion" and commanded a religion which is ever pressing onward to new heights. "Some members think that it is enough for the preachers to do all the living. The world will be saved when all live the life 'christ lived'. The effective appeal made by the Christian is 'Brown, which resulted in four persons joining the church. With deep emotion the chor song, 'It Fays to Servo Jesus.'"

Moose Ready for Convention Order to Convene in Brooklyn for Fourth Session Next Week All is in readiness for the fourth annual convention of the Improved, Benewald Protective Order of Moose, which convenes in Brooklyn September 8 and 9, the guest of Cosmopolitan Lodge No. 7 and Bethesda Chapter No. 10 of that city. Attorney Thomas L. Higgins, chairman of the local entertainment committee, hopes for the largest crowd yet that has been attracted to a Moose convention, though it is not likely that this will occur in view of the smallness of the attendance at the recent Elka convention in New York. Ample arrangements have been made for care of all visitors in the spacious and comfortable homes of the Brooklyn people. The parade, scheduled for Monday at 1 p.m., should be a spectaculair one. It will start from the home of Brooklyn Lodge of Elks at 1068 Fulton street and pass over the important streets where colored people live in the greatest numbers, coming back to the Elks home, where the parade will disband. Sunday night will mark the opening for the first time of the new Congressional Church at Lafayette and Grand save nause, when Dupont Proctor, will presch the annual sermon to the members of the Moose order. Monday night annual convention ball will be held at Arcadia Hall, and on next Wednesday at Dexter Park, annual convention plum will be held. Bus rides and a boat excursion have been planned for the entertainment of the delegates.

The Court declared that the law had always intended that slave holding in Sierra Leone, which is a British protecto: rate, should die out. Last year it was decreed that the children of slaves should be set free und that slaves should become free upon their master's death. THE MANCHESTER GUARDIAN, a sowerful English journal, asks how Zngland can show her face in the League of Nations with such a crime against freedom on her con science. The League of Nations is engaged in suppressing slavery and ‘Se Sierra Leone court's decision, the Guardian says, will give new trestige and power to slavery as an institution. : THIS NEWS is a blow to all who thought that slavery was long dead. England has always received credit for abolishing slavery thirty years before America and without the trouble of a civil war. Russia’s emancipation of her seris in 1861 attracted less attention because the serfs were of the same race as their masters. But in 1927 slavery still rears its venomous head. THE STUMBLING block in the way of immediate emancipation ap- pears to be the question of com: pensating the slaveholders. It will be remembered that Abraham Lin- coln tried to persuade the American slave owners to accept a plan of gradual emancipation with compen= sation, with the object ,of eading slavery in twenty-five years. But the slaveholders would not listen to any talk of emancipation, immediate or gradual; they chose to fight for their slaves, with the result that they lost them in two years without any compensation. England, like Lincoln, is trying to end slavery and leave ‘everybody satisfied. England, like Lincoln, will learn that this cannot be done. The only way to end such a sin against God and man is by immediate and decisive action. Pagans of 1927 SEVEN YEARS ago in Knoxville, Tennessee, a colored man named Maurice Mays was accused of mur= dering a white woman. In spite of the efforts of the National Associa« tion for the Advancement of Colors od Vanpte, in «pits of the evidence adduced (7 shew that he wae n mite away from the scone of the erime when it wae commitiad, Nuys wae convicted and execirted, SOW 4 WITTE WMA, harriod hy her conecicnco, confasaos ‘hat she was the mutdatess, that she killed the weman hecaise of foal- tisy. tn spite af hor confession she is set frea. fhe roasnn given for her release is that there is nu charge against her on the Knox: ville records and a Negro has heen executed for the crime, NEXT FOURTH of duly the Knox+ ville orators will glorify the justice and purify of American institutions as compared with those of decadent and worn-out older countries. The decriers of American institutions will point to the fate of Sacco and Vanzetti as proof oi judicial prej- udice and capitalistic oppression. BUT WHO WILL POINT to the farcical trial and undeserved death of Maurice Mays? Who will point to the pagan idea behind it? In pa- gan times a man was absolved from his sins if he sacrificed an ox. In Tennessee a confessed murderess is set free and the sacrifice is a Negro. . LETTERS TO THE EDITOR —$ Porters vs. Pullman Co. To the Editor of The Amsterdam News, Dear Mr. Kelly: Permit me to express my own deep apprecia- “don us well as the appreciation of my colleagues and the membership of the Brotherhood of Sleep- ing Car Porters for the ablo, atra’ghtforward and enlightened editorial entitled PULLMAN COM- PANY'S REFUSAL TO MEDIATE. which ap- Peared in your insue of wWednesiay, August 24. The Puliman Company's refusal to accept the Tecommendation of the United States Mediation Hoard and submit its case to arbitration ts the most eloquent testhnony to the fact, first, that the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters has d2- veloped sufficient strength an to draw the fear of the company to meet the porters’ representatives 4n conference; ant second, that the facts upnn which the Brotherhood rests Its ense are im- Pregnable. If'as the Pullman Company stated in tts reply to the Mediation Board, “thore 1s nothing to urbitrate,” then ft ought to be the most will ing party to establish that fact once and for ull Ume before an tmpartiat hoard of arbitrators, {ust ag it did in the caxe atthe.conductor, Tho vonipany’s claiin ta having "a contract with tho porters” fg nothing short of a cowardly attempt to folate the Watson-Parker Act without exposing itself to the contempt und distavor of the public which such w refusal warrants: o8- pecially whem ft Is known that the company, together with the otber railroad executives, help: ed to formuinte the law which crented the Federal machinery for adjusting all disputes arising be- tween workers and thelr omployrs in the trais- portation x)stem, It fx interesting to note that for once a group of white men havo made a radical departure from the contury-old custom, of thelr race in pursuing and inveigling Negroes into signing xo-culled contracts, foellng ‘sure that the Negro would be unuble to discover the numerous “Jokers” evor present in the doci- ments prepared by tho white men, It fs common knowledge that Negroes have heen made to sign away millions of dollars’ worth of thelr property and In many instances thelr lives without know- ing what thoy. were dolug The officials of tho Pullman Company knew, howaver, that in this instance they would moct group of Nesroes fully qualified to cope with any proposition that might have arison, 1 want cspecially to congratulate you upon the last paragraph in the above referred to editorial, “The general public cannot fail to sympathize with the Brotherhood in its fight for better working conditions.” For yenra the Pullman Company. while rolling up ite saug dividends, has forced its porters to collect the greater part of thelr wages from the public in tips and has given them working houra that would undermine any constitution, The additional wages that would give the porter fair compensation go into the pocketts of the company.

PERSONNEL: The pérsonnel at Har- tem Hospitai should be no different from that of any other hospital under the con: trol of the City of New York. Doctors. internes, nurses, orderlies, and other employees should be given appointments on a merit system which ignores race, creed and the color of the applicant for the place. Under such a system we be- lieve that Negroes would have propor- ticnate representation in all the hos- pitals in the city, and a larger represen- tation at Harlem Hospital, due to the iact that many Negro physicians would prefer to get experience and make con- tacts with those on whom their liveli- hood would most likely depend. If such a system is carried out in the city schools with a considerable degree of success. why is it impossible to use it in the city hospitals? WHEN NEGROES iirst began to make demands ior interneships at Harlem Hospital propaganda was circulated to the effect that if they were successful all the white internes would resign; that white physicians wou'd not work side by side with Negro physicians. Yet, Negroes were successful in their de- mands for interneships and we do not know of the resignation of a single white interne. : PREJUDICE: There is a prejudice and racial discrimination at Harlem Hospital, which, seemingly, at least. iias the approval of several of the mem= bers of the Board of Trustees of Belle- yue and Allied Hospitals, and by the superintendent at the hospital. Other- wise, most of it could be removed al- most overnight. Prejudice in all city institutions is easily controlled by those in authority, if they want to control it. Few white men in search of medical ex- perience could be found who would deny themselves that experience on the ground that they dislike to associate with Negro physicians. The relationship between a white doctor and a Negro patient is much cioser than that be- tween a white and Negro doctor in the same institution; so the white interne or surgecn who does not care to come in contact with Negro physicians should certainly be barred from a hos- pital where nearly all of the patients are Negroes. PATIENTS: An investigation is not: needed to prove that the conditions now: obtaining at Harlem Hospital operate to the detriment of the patient who goes or is taken there for treatment, either at his own expense or at the expense of the taxpayers of the city, and fails to’ get what is paid ior—an efficient medi-' cal service. . 2293 SEVENTH AVE.

CONDITIONS there are deplorabie and, in all probability, will continue sc until the root of the matter is got at and the causes removed. We believe that an impartial investigation of this city institution, approached from the stand- point of the superintendency, personnel and the patient, would reveal some of the disturbing elements which tend now to nullify its efficiency at the expense of the taxpayers of the city. THE SUPERINTENDENCY : We believe that the present superintendent at Har- lem Hospital should be removed and re: placed with a man of broader vision and a keener insight into the shallowness of the problem many would believe to be ever present when white and colored people live and move in close proximity. Under the present superintendent con- ditions have grown steadily worse, leav- ing no other conclusion to be reached than that he is not the man for the job. We cannot escape the thought but that a man who possessed, in addition to medical qualifications. a broad sym: pathetic knowledge of human problems and human nature, would be able to prevent much of the dissension now rampant there. We do not care what his color is, or what race gave him birth; so it must not be inferred that we demand that the hospital be turned over entirely to Negroes from top to bottom. It must be remembered that Harlem Hos- pital is an institution of the City of New York, and that the Board of Trustees who govern it are appointed by the mayor. It serves all races and the ap- pointment of its staff should be based on merit. NEVERTHELESS, we disagree with the Negro physician who, in an inter- view with a reporter for The Amsterdam News, said that there are not enough Xegro medical men skilled in the various branches of hospital work to man it.

May 18, 1927 The Elks' Convention THE AMSTERDAM NEWS has no apologies to make for the news story published in its issue for April 13, to the effect that New York City may lose the Elks' convention, because of an injunction secured by a white Elks' lodge under the provisions of the Grattan law. We have no apologies to make for publishing subsequent news stories to the effect that Elks here are in a quandary as to where the convention will be held here, and that a split of the order portends if it is not held here. We have no apologies to make for the story published in today's issue of the paper of the latest developments in the situation. Each of these news stories has been based upon information The Amsterdam News had reason to believe, and still believes, to be true. THE AMSTERDAM NEWS is not opposed to having the Elks' convention brought here in August, as a local newspaper tried to insinuate in its editorial columns on April 30. On the contrary, The Amsterdam News would be glad to see New York City entertain an Elks' convention. Nevertheless, several months ago information reached us to the effect that there was a definite move on foot to prevent the convention from being held here. This, too, has been practically verified by events which have taken place since that time. THE AMSTERDAM NEWS and all of the New York lodges had every reason to believe that the convention could be held here without any interference on the part either of the State of New York or the white Elks. The Grattan law and the injunction secured as a result of it prohibited even the use of the word "Elk" or the wearing of the Elks' emblem; but, in spite of both the law and the injunction, white and Negro Elks of the State have lived and worked side by side for many years, without the least conflict. Why, then, were the provisions of the Grattan law dragged forth at this particular time by the Negro Elks? Why should not the white Elks have been permitted to make the complaint, if they had one, that the law was being infringed? Why was there an attempt to throw an air of secrecy around the Elks' legal committee, which went to Albany to invite the Attorney General to give an opinion on the Grattan law? Was this action necessary? Why did the Grand Exalted Ruler attempt to brand The Amsterdam News story as "premature and inaccurate" when he must have known every word of it to be true? THE AMSTERDAM NEWS is not opposed to the re-election of J. Finley Wilson as the Grand Exalted Ruler; nor is it in favor of him. We would, in our way, however, most certainly support a New Yorker for the office he holds if one entered the campaign whom we believed to be capable and worthy of the EDITORIAL PAGE office, and who had the support of the Elks' lodges in this section. Pride in our own city and its citizens, pride in our local Elks' lodges, and the pride we would take in seeing a New Yorker hold the highest office at the disposal of the order, would dictate such a course. On the other hand, we would not hesitate to support, in our way — considering that we have no official connection whatever with the order J. Finley Wilson, or any other aspirant for the office, we deemed capable and worthy, and who had the support of New York Elks. THE AMSTERDAM NEWS believes that in making public the sinister things it unearthed, in its capacity as a gatherer and purveyor of news, it is rendering the Elks themselves and the public at large a service. We have no apologies, whatever, to make for pursuing such a course. Poro Safe PORO COLLEGE is now back in the hands of its owner and founder, Mrs. Annie E. Malone, where it would have been all the time but for Aaron Malone, her husband, who brought about the disgraceful receivership last January which threatened its life. His divorce suit is still pending, but no one cares about its ultimate outcome. It is his and Mrs. Malone's personal affair, and will not be much unlike other divorce cases. NEGROES everywhere, though, were concerned about the future of Poro College. From humble beginnings they had seen it grow, as a result of the patronage they gave it, to a million dollar institution. It was pointed to as an example of what a Negro woman could accomplish, unaided and under many handicaps. It was a credit to the entire race. To see it pass from the Negro's hands, no matter what the pretext, would have been a hard blow to all those interested in the Negro's commercial advancement. WEST VIRGINIA has set a precedent which should be followed by all Southern and border states which have discriminatory laws, which deny Negro students the right to study in State universities. Her Negro students are to be permitted to continue their studies in or outside the State at the State's expense—or such amount of it as would be allowed in the State institutions. While we do not wholly endorse such a plan—in fact, we do not see the need for it in a democracy such as we are supposed to live under—it is much better than the system obtaining in most Southern states of denying the Negro equal educational opportunities with other citizens, with no recourse whatever. SENATOR Tasker L. Oddie, of Nevada, is the last white American to come out of Haiti with nothing but praise for the American occupation. Granting that all the Senator says is true, what have the Haitians themselves got to say on the subject? After all is said and done, should not they be permitted to pass judgment on the occupation? What government officials, Senators and Congressmen, consider beneficial to the Haitians may be considered detrimental by the Haitians themselves. PRESIDENT KING'S recent election to serve a third term as president of Liberia should reassure pro-Coolidge forces in this country. God and the Preachers JEHOVAH NOT ON THE SIDE OF WEAKLINGS AND FAILURES By WILLIAM PICKENS MANY preachers misrepresent God. None of us knows anything about Him. But the Chicago preacher who recently discussed God in relation to the Mississippi flood displayed the greatest ignorance of all when he said: "God has poured His irresistible waters over the fields of the South to punish the white people for their mistreatment of the Negro." Now, this preacher does not deserve to be attacked. No preacher deserves to be attacked. But this superstitious idea does need to be attacked and destroyed: the foolish idea that God has any love for Mississippi Negroes which he does not have for Mississippi white people. Let us see: Eight out of every ten of the flood sufferers are colored people; in some localities nine out of every ten. The lowlands of the Mississippi Valley are inhabited mostly by innocent and largely ignorant black people. The fatal flood has swept away for them everything but left the white man's land. Colorful News "Movies" By THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE Bon Voyage A GROUP of notable Republican colored women has just closed a three-day political session at the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A., with a splendid representation and an enthusiastic wave which bids fair to have far-reaching results. Co-operating with the colored group at one session were such notables of the other race as Mrs. Alvin T. Hert, vice-chairman of the Republican National Committee, and Honorable James J. Davis, Cabinet member. Without attempting to name the delegates present or to tabulate the detailed events of the several sessions, which will doubtless be done by regular press correspondents, this column desires to comment upon what we believe to be of greater significance than names and events. The women who braved the venture of coming together to take an inventory of the political stock of their group; to formulate plans to strengthen the bulwark of Republicanism; and to serve notice upon all concerned that a vigorous, verile band of intelligent and determined women has resolved to have a day in the political court—a day of offering and a day of asking (offering their force and faith, and asking full recognition for themselves)—are indeed worthy of deep gratitude. These women are courageous and they have done a great service, as well as set a splendid example to the colored men, whose efforts to organize, determinedly and scientifically, have not entirely met the requirements of our group. We congratulate the female group which has just brought practical politics into play. We believe that their motives are pure and unaided by individual selfishness. And when they shall have consummated their plans for group organization, we are sure they will offer the hand and the example of fellowship and service to dormant man, whose ankles have long since been beaten by weeds of neglect and inertia. Bon voyage. Nearo Folk Songs Cones now R. W. Gordon (white), of New York, with his versions and explanations of Negro folk songs. We don't know whether it will cause joy or sorrow to the rank and file in noting that Mr. Gordon says that "Negro" folk songs are not distinctively Negro, but are the adaptation and assimilation of spiritual songs which were sung in the white churches long before the earliest date yet definitely ascertained for any Negro spiritual. In other words, says Mr. Gordon, the Negro "listened intently and thereby gained his investigation of the white man's spirituals. With all of which we heartily agree, and to the extent of averting that environment, opportunity, contact, and precedent have far, far more to do with shaping "racial traits" than do blood and skin tints. The Negro in America has followed in the wake of the white A.N.P. WILLIAM PICKER The biggest loser is the Negro. Not only the flood, but the Red Cross and the martial law will he his enemies, and "forceel labor" will mean black labor. Blacks will he put to work helping to clear the white man's properly without wages or reward. Being poor and homeless, they will be yoked with new debs in order to get a start. Except for the few who will be able to escape through the trap doors of man, absorbing both his virtues and his faults. Had the white man been thrown in Africa under similar circumstances, he would probably now be singing "white" folk songs in dark Africa; for he would have similarly absorbed the faults and the virtues of the black man, made so, not by Divine Providence, as Southern gentlemen so abstintly shout, but by climatic and other conditions over which man has no control. And this does not mean that we are evolutionists or atheists—quite the contrary. Father Adam was undoubtedly the size of both black and white, and the lyres of old probably gave the impulses which unconsciously are now guilding the vocal chords of all men of today, black, white, spiritual, sentimental, or "blues."

Ingraham, a former slave, is in New York to talk about the work and progress of the Sparta Agricultural and industrial institute, which he established in the heart of what is known as "the black belt of Georgia." He comes with the hope of raising an endowment fund of $75,000. LETTERS "martial law," they will all find themselves more completely enslaved than before the flood, "Relief" will be given to them giggly and lust after all the whites have been taken care of, in short, Mississippi after the flood will be simply a more extensive Miami after the hurricane. How in the name of God can a Negro preacher ascribe this horror to God and expect anybody to love God for it? It looks rather as if the devil took charge of this river and this whole business. Besides, it is a drawback to a people to be taught that some special providence is fighting their battles against their oppressors. That is a bad doctrine. People must feel the need of fighting their own battles. God is not "on the Negro's side." He thinks just as well, to say the least, of the white people. Furthermore, it is just as degrading a superstition to think that nature's perils are caused by somebody's sins as to think that storms and crop failures were caused by witches. Certainly if God meant to hit white people of the South by this flood, he made a wide miss on one of his biggest throws. God is not on the side of weaklings and failures. Marguerita Avery in Debut Recital The increasingly popular Sunday afternoon recital with which Negro Harlem has been besieged during the last few months evidenced itself this week in a sing recital by Marguerite Avery, soprano, at the Imperial Auditorium, West 129th street. Miss Avery, a former pupil of Harry Williams, and now a pupil of Alberto Blimbon, made her initial bow in a well-ordered program before an unusually appreciative audience that wildly applauded every number and several times demanded encores. The audience aparently was highly enthusiastic about Miss Avery's entire program. Several numbers she did splendidly, especially the Thomas "Ma Volsne" and the Brahms "Sapphische Ode." Her upper register is her best and often she was able to create beauty of tone that was actually thrilling. Fortunately or unfortunately, however, singers have to reckon with more than one register, the perfect blending of which is one of the biggest problems in vocal art. Here is Miss Avery's downfall. Her upper register is clear and often brilliant, her lower register, however, is rough and even rasping. Another unfortunate thing about Miss Avery's voice is her very rapid vibrato, which really borders on being a tremolo (one of the most disastrous circumstances that could befall a singer). Then the habit of singing flat was greatly in evidence, much to the agony of the musical ears present. The Coleridge-Taylor number lacked fervor and understanding. The tempo too slow and dispasionate. The Negro Spirituals should have been omitted since Miss Avery does not show to advantage here. She knew her people, however, as was shown in the fact that a large number of her songs terminated on high notes. Musically shallow folks like these and Miss Avery was generously rewarded with thundering applause. Novella McCrorey and Hall Johnson accompanied well. U. G. C. A. S. Helm, baritone, broadcast from station WGL, Hotel Majestic, West Solventy-second street, Sunday at 4:15 p. m. Miss Jessie Covington, who was recently elected to the Theta Chapter of the PI Kappa Lambda Fraternity, the honorary music fraternity at Oberlin Conservatory of Music, was the accompanist. Mr. Helm will be heard in his second annual recital in the fall at Steinway Hall. R. F. Quinn, baritone, gave a program mainly of Spirituals last week in Town Hall for a small audience, with Harry T. Burleigh the most represented arranger of his list. Monroe N. Work Returns FROM EUROPEAN TOW TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala. May 15—Monroe N. Work, director of the Tuskegee Institute Department of Records and Research and editor of the Negro Year Book, returned to the institute Friday evening after a three months' tour through Europe visiting libraries, where he collected 1,500 references for the bibliography on the Negro in America and Africa which he is compiling. He was accompanied on the trip by Mrs. Work. Mr. Work made researches in libraries, museums and Colonial offices in London, Brussels. Keeping Fit By E. Elliott Rawlins, M.D. "Damaged Goods" THE sins of the father shall be visited upon the children even to the third and fourth generation. Somewhere in the Bible the good old prophets made this statement. This is a biological fact, which is just as true today as it was in those ancient days. The only difference is that ignorance as to fundamental health laws was prevalent among the masses of the people in those old days, while today health education is given to the people even from childhood days. Biological laws as to the fundamentals of health are given to all who will listen and learn. I am having no sympathy therefore for this young husband whose ignorance has caused sickness to be inflicted upon his young wife. Before her marriage to Chester, Catherine was a beautiful girl, with form, face and personality that were pleasing and bewitching. She was one of the human blooms in God's garden. Our Eyes DR. R. J. FOSTER OPTOMETRIST THE term eyestrain is the common expression for a comprehensive group of symptoms which result from abnormal eye fatigue, when the eyes are compelled to do work beyond their physiological capacity. It may be defined as the effort required of the eyes to attain vision sufficient for the ordinary duties of life, which effort places too great a tax upon the nerves or muscles connected with the eyes and their appendages. Through causes understood only in part, its effects may be manifested in remote organs, as the head, stomach, neck and back, or upon the eyes themselves. By far the larger proportion of functional digestive disorders in the young are due to eyestrain. Eyestrain invariably results when more is required of the eye than should be reasonably demanded of it. The small delicate muscles of the eye are certain to rebel if imposed upon. Even though the eyes may be normal and free from errors of refraction, eyestrain may result if proper care be not taken. Uncorrected eye defects, improper lighting and general misuse of the eyes produce eyestrain. The bad effects resulting therefrom are headache, nervousness, general fatigue, faulty digestion, sleeplessness, inability to concentrate the attention, irritability, poor work, accidents and inefficiency. The evidence of eyestrain is usually indicated by such symptoms as crosses eyes; repeated inflammation of eyes or lids, sly, crusty lids, complaints of headache, head tilting, squinting, frowning, sensitiveness to light, etc. One of the most conspicuous symptoms of eyestrain is headache, especially in the first five decades of life. It has been estimated that 72.3 per cent of the number of persons with eye trouble suffer from some form of head pain. The pain may be in any part of the head, and although the use of the eyes causes the pain, the eyes themselves may be free from discomfort. It is important to emphasize this because the remark is often heard: "I'm subject to nasty headaches, but they can't be from my eyes because they never pain me and I see perfectly. Good vision and painless eyes do not exclude the organs of sight as a cause of mischief. Another fallacy resides in this sentence, so often repeated: "I read for hours without the slightest discomfort, but I wake up almost every morning with a headache; I don't suppose, of course, that it can be my eyes." Often headache and use of the eyes in reading are coincident. There is a general misconception that eyestrain results only when some eye defect exists. In the attempt to see clearly an abnormal strain is placed upon the eyes that are defective and it naturally follows that defective vision is one of the most important causes of eyestrain. On the other hand, eyestrain will inevitably result when normal eyes are abused, misused or subjected to faulty illumination. Some ways in which the eyes may be abused are too long periods of close application without frequent intervals of rest, too much fine work requiring an accurate discrimination of details; reading on trains, street cars and buses; wearing improper glasses, etc. Improper lighting is a prevalent cause of eyestrain. The light may be too bright or too dim, it may come from the wrong direction; it may flicker or it may shine directly in the eyes.

Of particular value, Mr. Work says, are references obtained in England on the slave trade. EYESTRAIN shall be visited upon the child and fourth generation.

I am having no sympathy therefore for this young husband whose ignorance has caused sickness to be inflicted upon his young wife. Before her marriage to Chester, Catherine was a beautiful girl, with form, face and personality that were pleasing and bewitching. She was one of the human blooms in God's garden that have grown to physical perfection despite the environment of congestion, poverty and "fast life" of Harlem. Catherine was born from sturdy Negro parents whose simple life in the rural Southland has been changed to the artificial, strenuous and crowded city life of New York. She was eager when she became seventeen to try her wings in the flight of womanly experiences outside her home. The call of the jazz music of the frequent dances enticed her to listen to the woofing of Chester, a lad of twenty winters, and so despite the improvements of her mother, she left home and married Chester. Three months of married life brought Cathrine a mixture of pleasure, happiness, sadness and worry, all because Chester, her husband, was too young, too impulsive, too ignorant of health laws to be a husband and expectant father. Cathrine was expecting to become a mother. This naturally gave her some anxiety, but this was also mingled with worry and sadness. An eruption, pinkish in color, covered her once beautiful skin; a little ulcer presented itself on a delicate part of her body; her doctor had told her she would be a mother, and that a serious disease had developed in her blood. The disease of syphilis had penetrated her system, and she was no more the perfect bloom, but a damaged flower. Her physician had told her how necessary it was for her to have this syphilis immediately treated. The physical and mental strength of both her and her unborn baby depended upon a thorough treatment of this disease. All this has made Cathrine very sad. Chester, her husband, was taken in hand by the family doctor and told of the condition. He hung his head in shame and admitted he was the cause of his wife's disease. He knew that he had a disease, but was not sure that it was cured. He admitted that he took some treatment, but that he never took the Wasserman blood test before he married his wife. Chester told the physician he was very sorry and that he would pay for all treatments in order that she fully retain her health. But he does not fully realise what he has done. He has crushed the spirit and scarred a once beautiful girl. The Drama "Jimjamboree" will be given tonight at the Little Negro Theatre, 103 West 185th street, by the Krigwa Players. Because of a fire in the projection room, The New Negro Art (Sekondi) Players have closed their bill at the Triangle Theatre. Seventh avenue at Perry street, until further notice. The Poets' Corner Press submitted for publication in "The Poets' Corner" will not have turned unless accompanied with marked address and stamped envelope. BEAUTIFUL flowers of every kind into a garland you may twine. Beautiful flowers, so rich and rare, kissed by the sunshine's tender care. Beautiful flowers of every hue, watered with rain drops and sparkling dew. Beautiful flowers, with sweet per fume. Bedecking the brow or encircling the tomb. Beautiful flowers we have today. To crown our lovely Queen of May. —J. LEE TIMBERLAKE.
