McGraw. Frank Carter, 5 West 133d street, and his wife, Alice, charge Pearce with extorting $100 from them upon a threat to arrest them on a charge of operating a policy game shortly after midnight Sept. 1. They reported the case to Police Headquarters and Peace was placed under arrest the night of Sept. 6 by Captain Daniel Kellar of the Seventeenth Division, stripped of his shield, and suspended. The ex-policeman said he was not guilty. According to the affidavit of the complaint signed by Carter and his wife, Peace called at their home on the night in question, and upon entering went through the apartment and seized a quantity of rent, light and grocery bills, together with silks of paper bearing numbers. They asked him what was the matter, and he is said to have replied: "This is enough to make you serve six months." "For what?" asked the wife. The two men then went into the bedroom and the husband ordered his wife from the room. They went into the front room, states the wife, and after a short while the husband returned and said to her: "You will have to give him $100." "For what?" asked Mrs. Carter. The husband replied: "He says that's what we'll have to do." Mrs. Carter went on to say that she gave her husband $100 cash—one $20, some tenses, fives and $1 bills, and he returned to the front room with Patrolman Peace. Carter stated that Peace told him that he could avoid arrest by paying him $100. "This goes three ways, I don't keep it all." Peace is said to have told Carter, who offered him the money. "Put it in an envelope." Peace is said to have instructed, "and come downstairs." Carter said he obeyed. "Give it to Louis," said Peace, meaning Louis Camillo, a grocer clerk at 3 West 123d street. Carter declares he gave the money to Camillo saying, "Give this to the officer who will call for it." Mrs. Carter said she looked from the window and saw her husband take the envelope with the money in it to the grocery store while Peace waited on the pavement below in front of a fish store. When Carter left the store, Peace is said to have walked in and gotten the envelope containing the $100 from Camillo. The Carters resented Peace's conduct and reported him to Police Headquarters, and his arrest followed.

Runs Amuck in Stolen Automobile Four Serious Charges Lodged Against Elevator Operator Arraigned in West Side Court Friday charged with stealing an automobile, operating it while under the influence of liquor, reckless driving and damaging property, Waldo Johnson, 26, elevator operator, living at 125 West 135th street, was held without bail for the Grand Jury. Johnson is employed as an elevator operator in the apartment house at 115 West Seventy-first street. Having finished his night's work he stepped into a sedan owned by Mrs. Mildred Zimmerman, a tenant in the building, and started to drive up Broadway. At the intersection of Broadway and 125th street Johnson smashed into a Sheffield Farms milk wagon, which was parked at the curb, while the driver, John Grote of 140 Vermilyea avenue, was in a building making deliveries. Johnson backed away and started off again, turning eastward on 125th street. He was arrested by Detective Van Valkenburg and taken to the West 100th street station. Arthur Briggs Sues Major Augustus Heise Arthur Briggs, now a steward, who while on trial along with several prohibition agents last summer on charges of bribery and violation of the prohibition law testified that Major Augustus Helse, former assistant prohibition administrator, gave him the "third degree" trying to force him to implicate the agents, brought suit in the Supreme Court today demanding $100,000 damages from Major Helse for that officer's part in the alleged "old Chinese method of punishment." The records show that Briggs was acquitted on the charge of bribery and that Major Helse was suspended pending investigation of the charges made by Briggs. A Federal Grand Jury, after an exhaustive investigation, exonerated Helse and he was subsequently reinstated. PERSONAL Your own story or ideas correctly composed in any form, confidentially.

BOULIN DETECTIVE AGENCY 110 East 128th Street Harlem 5812 (day) Brend, 0650 (night) THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News Asks $5,000 in Alienation Suit Legal Paper Served on Mildred Tillman in Hines Case Legal papers in a $5,000 suit for alienation of affections were served on Mildred Tillman. 1 West 129th street, Friday, by Mrs. Mabel Hines, 285 West 150th street. A week prior to the serving of the papers at the place of employment of Mrs. Tillman in Neposette, L. I., a divorce raid was conducted upon an apartment at 2420 Seventh avenue, where it is claimed Mrs. Hines' husband, Fred Hines, was found with Mrs. Tillman. The raid was conducted by operatives of the Boulin Detective Agency and the raiding party included Mrs. Hines and several witnesses. Through her attorneys, Mrs. Hines has begun suit for absolute divorce. The Hines were-married April 4, 1917, in Brooklyn, and have no children. Constant disagreement separated them June 22 of this year, Mrs. Hines said. OTHER DIVORCE Thomas Johnson, a Postal clerk, 25 West Ninety-ninth street, through his attorney, Richard E. Cary, has brought suit for absolute divorce in the Supreme Court against his wife, Priscilla, 131 Edgecombe avenue, naming one Joseph Watts as co-respondent. The Johnsons were married in 1921. There are no children. The husband has also started a $5,000 alienation suit against Watts. CHILD TAKEN Early Sunday morning the neighborhood near 298 West 149th street was awakened by the cries of a mother and child as a result of a raid staged by Robert James, 228 West 149th street, and detectives from Boullin's Agency. Mr. James claims that when the detectives visited apartment 19 they found his wife, Hildred James, fast asleep with one Clifford Dewendt. The husband was somewhat enraged when he discovered his 104-year-old child sleeping on a couch in the living room, and only portieres separating her from the mother's room. He at once took possession of his daughter, gathered up her clothing, and carried her away to his home. Both mother and child wept at the parting. Dewendt, detectives claim, has a legal wife living only a few doors from him at 244 West 149th street. Immediately after the occurrence both husband and detectives visited Mrs. Dewendt's apartment and notified her of what had occurred and as a result of this raid two divorce suits may follow.

MOTHER, The Florence Garnette School for Girls Located in the "Block Beautiful," 221 WEST 180th ST. Is just the place for your girl! Howard to Offer JournalisticCourse Five Courses to Be Offered Beginning Autumn WASHINGTON, Sept. 12—Beginning with the autumn quarter, courses in theoretical and practical journalism, including newspaper writing and reporting, editorial and feature writing, and newspaper practice, will be offered at Howard University under the direction of the Department of English, assisted by several experienced newspaper men connected with prominent daily and weekly newspapers. The university has realized for a long time the constantly increasing demand for the introduction of such courses into its curriculum, and as early as 1919 issued prospectus of a rather extensive course in journalism, but inadequate teaching facilities prevented its introduction at that time. During the past college year, however, at a series of luncheons give at the university and attended by the dean of the College of Liberal Arts, the head of the Department of English, and prominent newspaper men, this demand was so forebly expressed, particularly by W. N. Jones and W. O. Walker, managing editors, respectively, of the Baltimore Afro-American and the Washington Tribune, that immediate introduction of three courses in journalism was inevitable. The university is forunate in securing an able teaching staff for this work. In addition to three of its English teachers, Profs. L, D. Turner, Jason C. Grant Jr. and W. A. Hunton, it has secured the services of Prof. Albert S. Beckham, whose experience as a practical newspaper man has been quite extensive. He was trained in the theory of journalism at Ohio State University and at the Pulitzer School of Journalism of Columbia University, and afterwards was employed in the editorial offices of two New York newspapers and as a reporter for several others.

Williams, 41, known as "The Mayor of Harlem," failed to show up at Heights Court last Wednesday, at which time he was to answer charges of unlawfully withholding the property ($200) of Ruth Morgan, 531 Lenox avenue. Magistrate Albert Vitale, following a request for adjournment by defense counsel, Attorney Demerald Williams, refused an application for a warrant of arrest made by Miles Paige, attorney for Mr. Morgan. "Black Herman" Escapes Jail Term Magistrate Swayed by Testimony in His Behalf by Junius Green Found guilty of fortune telling, Herman Rucker, known as "Black Horman," 39, magician, prinar and publisher, 119 West. 136th street, was saved from six months in jail by the good work of a friendly neighbor. Rucker was arraigned in Helights Court Friday before Magistrate Albert Vitale, who fined him $50. The Harlem magician was taken to the cell room of the court and fingerprinted, and then set free. "Black Herman" is indebted to Junius M. Green, bondsman, 168 West. 136th street, for his freedom, and magistrate Vitale told him that because of the recommendation of Mr. Green, "for whose word I have the highest respect," he would not follow his intention of sending him to jail for six months, but would impose a fine of $50. Policewoman Nettie Sweatman (not Sweetman), who brought about Rucker's arrest, again narrated the details that culminated in the charges that culminated in practicing medicine without a license. On the latter charge Rucker now awaits trial in the Court of Special Sessions under $1,000 bail. Shoots Wife, Girl, 11 Then Takes Own Life WASHINGTON, Sept. 12. After shooting his wife and an 11-year-old girl as the climax of a quarrel at 778 Fairmont street last week, Joseph Smith, 33, ran from the house and, while police were searching for him, killed himself by sending a bullet through his right temple. The body was found in the rear of the stadium of Howard University after a neighbor had reported hearing a shot to Policeman W. L. Hunt. Mrs. Edith Smith, 22, the wife, is in a serious condition at Freedman's Hospital with bullet wounds in the right breast and right leg. Bernice Johnson, the child, was wounded in the right shoulder. It's Gettin' So You Can't Trust Anybody Peyton Johnson, 20, 446 Manhattan avenue, and Matthew Jones, 23, 68 West 138th street, alleged stick-up men, who are said to have held up and robbed two other hold-up men now awaiting sentence, were arraigned in Heights Court Friday before Magistrate Vitale on a charge of robbery preferred by Aubrey Gibbs, 20, 267 West 144th street, who declares that the men beat him and robbed him in the hallway of his home in the early morning of Sept. 6. Both men were held in $20,000 bail each for a further hearing. Patrolman George Green of the West 136th street station effected the men's arrest. On August 18 Prof. Williams was arraigned before Magistrate Well, who was about to send him to jail after a complaint of larceny had been drawn up against him, the magistrate having no power to fix ball in the absence of a fingerprint record. Because of the professor's good reputation, however, Magistrate Well adjourned the case on the summons, which completely changed the status of the case when the complainant appeared beore Magistrate Vitale last Wednesday. "As far as I am concerned there is no complaint before me for a felony," said Magistrate Vitale. "If you wish to make application for his arrest for failing to appear on the summons," he told Attorney Paige, "then make out the proper form of affidavit and I will pass upon it." He then denied application for a warrant for Prof. Williams' arrest, but added that Attorney Faige may get a bench warrant and effect an arrest. Although no word has been received from the "Mayor," his close friends declare that he has left the city to false for Mrs. Morgan the $200 she said she paid him for the purchase of some stock on May 24, 1924. Prof. Williams insists that the $200 he received was a personal loan granted at a period when he and Mrs. Morgan were very friendly. Mrs. Morgan declares, however, that Prof. Williams sold her the stock as a representative of the Robert T. Bess Corporation, 206 Broadway, who were at that time conducting a stock selling campaign in New Rochelle. Injuries Fatal to Hatchet Slayer Wife Ezekiel Reid, 34, 61 West 135th street, who split open the head of his wife, Inez, and then cut it off with a hatchet Monday night, Sept. 5, died at five o'clock the next morning in the prison ward of Bellevue Hospital, having sustained a broken back when he leaped from a fourth story window at 16 West 137th street. On the night of the crime Dr. Stern of Harlem Hospital treated Reid and diagnosed his case as contusions of the back. Physicians at Bellevue were therefore evidently unaware that Reid's back was broken (in spite of the fact that clothes lines broke his fall), and the man is believed to have died without attention for his more serious injury. The murder and suicide grew out of two years' alleged teasing, nagging and "cheating" on the part of the wife, police aver. Reid was not being chased by detectives when he made his death plunge, as previously reported. Instead, the man is said to have been completely overcome with remorse for his dood, and hurled himself out the window to "end it all." His body was found by Detectives Duano, Moore, Brown, Winterhalter and a half dozen others in the courthouse where he had fallen. FIRST SAVINGS DEPOSITOR A NEGRO Helped Found Institution Which Now Has More Than $200,000,000 in Assets H. H. Pace Asks Larger Opportunities in Banking Experience Sought for Negroes in Article in Savings Bank Journal That the first depositor in the first savings bank in the United States was a Negro is one of the interesting facts brought out in an article in the Savings Bank Journal of September, 1927, just published in New York City. Curtis Roberts, who was a servant in the home of Condy Raguen, who was one of the founders of the Philadelphia Saving Fund Society, is the man whose first silver dollar started that society on the road to deposits of more than $200,000,000. TWO Other interesting bits of history connected with the banking business among Negroes in America, beginning with the establishment in 1863 of the Freedmen's Saving Bank B. S. use Co. down to the latent interest in organizing a national bank in Harlem, are interestingly related in an article on page fifty-six of the "Savings Bank Journal," written by Harry H. Pace, president of the Northeastern Life Insurance Company. The article was written at the request of Mr. Frederick O. Shubert, editor of this magazine, who read Mr. Pace's article on banking and the importance of providing receipt of the finished article, Mr. Shubert wrote: "It is the most interesting article on this subject, that I have ever read." The growth of the banking business originating in the South is ousted and the difficulties under which the banks grew. It is noteworthy that the greatest development has taken place in two North Carolina, and is attributed largely to the dominant personalities of the heads of these institutions. Mr. Pace tells interestingly of the Binga State Bank of Chicago, growing out of the real estate agency of Jesse Binga, and the growth of the Douglas National Bank, also of Chicago, the only national bank of the Negro race in the North, presided over by the head of the Victory Life Insurance Company and the Overton Hygienic Company. A paragraph of particular interest is that which refers to the 75-year-old Negro bank president, Major Richard R. Wright, who established the Citizens & Southern Bank & Trust Co. of Philadelphia and which has become a depositary of the city of Philadelphia and the State of Pennsylvania. Mr. Pace closes with a plea to the bank to be in the banking world for a larger opportunity for bank training for young Negroes who are coming out of the universities and colleges of the country and who desire to enter the banking business.

Has Man Arrested, But Is Made to Pay Customer Days Dealer Failed to Return Correct Amount Showing a watch with Jewish numerals nearly cost Ernest Infin, 10 West 129th street, $4 and a possible jail sentence. Harry Jershen, white, who has a store at 2164 Fifth avenue, complained to the court that Infin became abusive to him when he ordered him from his store after Infin had demanded $4 change which he (Infin) claimed he did not get. Magistrate Vitale, sitting in Helighs Court. Thursday, then decided to hear Infin's story. Infinim told a straightforward story with never a halting moment. He went to the store to make a purchase with a $5 bill, he said. He first asked for chewing gum, but was told that they could not change $5. He then purchased a package of cigarettes, he said, and Mrs. Gershon waited on him. When she gave him his change, Infinim said he took out his watch to note the time and the Jewish characters caught the eye of the Hebrew woman, who made much admiring comment. He left the store, and when he reached a square away he noticed that he had been given change out of a dollar, but that the $4 were missing. He then remembered that Mrs. Gershon had not given him the $4. He returned to the store, he said, and asked Mrs. Gershon for his $4, and she insisted that she had given it to him. Gershon then came out and ordered him away, but he refused to go, he said, until he got his change. Gershon then called a policeman and had him arrested. "And, your honor," said Infin. "I did not curse that man, and I didn't strike him like he says I did." Magistrate Vitale furrowed his brow and said, "I believe this man's story. Pay this man his $4." Gershon paid, though very reluctantly. Infinl was dismissed. Skirts Fringe of Long Sentence Workhouse Reclaims Man Arrested Three James Powell, 30, 558 Lenox avenue, who has talked himself out of jail in Heights Court more than once, skirted the fringe of a long sentence in the Workhouse last Wednesday when Magistrate Vitale held him for investigation on a charge of disorderly conduct. He had been arrested three times before. Patrolman Ardiff had arrested Powell in front of 575 Lenox avenue after telling him to move on, which he claimed Powell refused to do. Powell told the Magistrate that Ardiff arrested him for nothing following a "quiet conversation." and he talked so convincingly that Magistrate Vitale let him off with a suspended sentence. As he was leaving the court, Powell began to argue with Ardiff, who turned him right around in the courtroom and brought him back before the magistrate, who then held him for investigation until Friday.

Appeals to Commerce Body Sets Forth Claim That Pullman Company Violates Interstate Act The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters on September 8 filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission in Washington, D. C., a petition calling upon that body to investigate the conduct of the Pullman Company in its relations to the porters and maids in its service, and to the traveling public. The petition sets forth the claim that the company is guilty of practices in contravention of the Interstate Commerce Commission Act, and calls upon the commission to investigate the conduct of the company with a view toward compelling the company to desist from its alleged unlawful practices. The petition charges that aside from the ticket price collected from the passenger by the Pullman Company it also receives an estimated sum of $7,000,000 annually, representing the amount paid to the porters and maids by the travelling public. The present wage of the Pullman porter is $72.50 per month, based upon a 400-hour work month. The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters is asking a minimum wage of $150 and a 240-hour minimum month as enjoyed by the other railroad workers. The Pullman Company, while recognizing the right of its conductors to organize and bargain collectively, has, it is charged, refused to grant to its porters and maids the same right.

EVENING HIGH SCHOOL ANNEX CLOSED Failure of a Sufficient Number of Students to Register Given as Reason Failure of a Sufficient Number of Students to Register Given as Reason Member of Impromptu Committee Says Another Cause for Small Number of Applicants Was Failure to The Evening High School Annex in the school building in West 140th street, between Lenox and Seventh avenues, was closed to Harlem students Monday night. Failure of a sufficient number of students to register was given as the reason—a registration of 600 students being required. "About 350 students had registered," said Elder Hawkins, 142 Morris avenue, who was in charge of registration, "and if they had given us a little more time we would doubtless have reached our quota. The great majority of the students who had registered were new and there were about 200 old students who were going to register. Monday night' was our largest registration night and the students who registered that night were not counted toward our quota. FOUR "Only two students of the entire attendance at the Evening High School Annex were white. There was every indication that the registration of Negro students this year would exceed that of last term, when the attendance dropped far below the quota; yet the school remained open." Albert E. E. Jenkins, accountant, 142 West 139th street, a member of an impromptu committee formed to conduct an informal investigation, said: "Another cause for the difficulty of reaching our quota is that the Evening High School Annex did not teach third and fourth year subjects. If that were done, the registration of students would far exceed the school's capacity." Principal Smelter of the Evening High School Annex explained that it would be unfair to continue with a low attendance at that school and the one in 116th street between Lenox and Fifth avenues, so he advised the students to attend the 116th street building, which is said to be very poorly equipped. Other members of the impromptu committee are: E. Beresford, Arthur A. Bellamy, Gordon T. Crooks, and A. F. Simon. Mr. Hawkins, winner of the New York Times Evening High School oratory contest, is president of the committee.

SECOND SECTION Tuberculosis Committee to Observe Fifth Year With "Open House Day" Exhibits to Show Progress of Health Work in Harlem Only One Worker Used at the Start The fifth anniversary of the Harlem Committee of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association will be celebrated Thursday, September 22, by an "Open House" day at the committee's offices, 202 West 136th street. There will be an exhibition showing the progress of the work since the committee's origin. During the committee's pioneer days one person only was needed on the staff. Now the staff includes Mrs. Mabel Doyle Keaton, R.N., who has been the executive secretary ever since the committee was organized; Miss Gertrude Mac Sheridan, R.N., field nurse; Mrs. Lillian Glover, dental hygienist; Miss Rita Toppin, office registrar, and twelve dentists of the community, who volunteered part of their time regularly every week to the dental clinic, together with several local physicians. Five years ago—August, 1922—a small office was sufficient for the committee's headquarters. Today the committee has a large office; a larger room, equipped with two dental chairs, an X-ray machine and up-to-date apparatus where the dental clinic is held, and a waiting room, all on the third floor of the New York Urban League Building. Each year over 1,500 people of Harlem had questions answered by the information service of the Harlem Committee. Over 1,073 children made an average of three visits each to the dental clinic; several thousands more were given health information through the lectures, health movies and entertainments given before various groups and by the literature distributed in the community. These health talks and entertainments are given in schools, in churches, before children and other groups requesting them. The committee conducts a nutrition class for children once a week. Every child who attends the dental clinic is weighed and measured. If he is found to be underweight, he is invited to join the nutrition class. Other children, whose parents have been asked for help in giving them proper nutrition, are also invited to join the health club and nutrition class. The children are taught the value of good, wholesome foods and given other important facts about proper nutrition in an interesting manner. Sometimes they have a health store, and often they give health plays for their parents and friends. The dental clinic is operated all day every day, except Saturday when it is open until twelve noon. Children whose parents cannot afford to pay private dentists are given Dental care at cost. The dentists of the community who寄生 in the community of their voluntarily to this work are: Dr. E. D. Collymore, who is at present on a temporary leave of absence; Dr. H. L. Bryant, Dr. W. J. Robinson, Dr. J. S. Forester, Dr. J. A. Williams, Dr. L. Carter, Dr. A. Donnelley, Dr. H. C. Roberts, Dr. D. V. Du Bols, Dr. M. R. Allen, and Dr. I. T. Donaldson. Several physicians of the community volunteer some of their time regularly for health examinations. These are: Dr. N. Whitemans, Dr. J. J. Jones, Dr. Alonzo deG. Smith, Dr. H. M. Embden, Dr. Reuben S. Young, and Dr. J. J. Thompson. All kinds of health questions are answered by the information service. "Where can I get free care for tuberculosis?" "Why should my children be vaccinated?" "What does toxin-antitoxin do?" "Where can I have my child examined?" "What shall I do for my little girl who has heart trouble?" "How can I find out why I feel listless and tired all the time?" These are typical questions. If the committee thinks some other agency could give better help for certain problems, it sends the inquirer to that agency. In addition to the work of the Harlem Committee all the services of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association are at the disposal of the residents of Harlem through the local committee. This includes the service of the heart committee, the dental committee, the children's service, the health education service, the hospital service, the associated out-patient's clinic committee, and the associated tuberculosis clinics. One of the outstanding features of the success of the entire work has been the hearty co-operation given to it by the community. In turn, Mrs. Keaton was secretary of the Harlem Fresh Air Committee, which gave information to all agencies regarding sending children to the country for summer vacations this year. She was also secretary of the Negro Childron's SILVER Furniture Co. 525 LENOX AVE.

Family on Foot Arrives From Va Befriended by Proprietor of Hotel Press—Leave for Long Island A family of three started about three weeks ago to walk from Norfolk, Va., to New York City. They reached here finally and were picked up in West 135th street Monday night by a stranger and taken to the Harlem Branch of the Salvation Army, 50 West 135th street. The farmer-trio, who did not give their names, consisted of a man about 50 years old, who looked his age and his wife of 42, and a 14-year-old boy. All three were very agged and dirty, the boy wearing a pair of heavy boots, the woman wearing a hat from the seventeenth century. The stranger called on Lambert Bailey, in charge of the Salvation Army Building, and is said to have explained that the Norfolk family was not asking alms, as they had a little money, but wanted a place to sleep. Mr. Bailey explained that the building did not furnish sleeping quarters, but was devoted en- Tan umps amples beckles notches Wildness : Spots kheads UGLY!

He then directed them to the Hotel Press for their night's lodging. Mrs. Annie Press, proprietor, admitted the family and provided beds and meals for them free of charge. So badly did the family appear that they attracted quite a large crowd in front of the hotel. The farmer-family slept at Hotel Press Monday night and insisted upon leaving yesterday morning, bound for Long Island. They told Mrs. Press, they were going to walk and didn't mind it, but Mrs. Press tried to prevail upon them to stay until she provided them with better clothes and a little money. She gave them their carfare, she said, and directed them to the Pennsylvania station. The trio told Mrs. Press that they had been farming in Norfolk but grew tired of the place and decided to come to New York. They bummed their way here on wagons or anything else that would pick them up, and begged along the way. They wanted to go to Long Island for employment on a farm thore, they said. The trio seemed to be in good health and spirits and seemed both eager and prepared to walk anywhere, regardless of distance.

Expedition Finds Negro Tribes in Caucasus SUKHUM, Caucasus, Sept. 5. A number of Negro settlements have been discovered in the Kodorsk district by an expedition sent out by Moscow University. The Negroes are said to have retained their type, language and customs, notwithstanding their partial assimilation with local Caucasian tribes. Many centuries ago their ancestors are said to have been brought from Africa to the Black Sea coast by Europeans. They use a peculiar language, a mixture of African and local dialect, though the first distinctly prevails. The Abekasian population's attitude toward the intruders has been hostile until recently, but is reported to be gradually changing.

Now, almost every woman has recourse to rouge to obtain the red checks that today's beauty demands. However, young school-girls and some women would like to have the glow of health in the cheeks without the aid of rouge. This is how it is done: Have two bowls—in one have hot water, and in the other ice water—with separate sponges for each bowl. Now sponge the face first with hot water and then with ice water. Keep up this alternate sponging through about ten applications of each, ending with ice water. You will find that your cheeks will glow naturally through a whole evening.

Hurt You Harrisburg Giants Continue Puzzle To the Crack Bushwick Team Harrisburg Giants Continue Puzzle To the Crack Bushwick Team Well Known "Fat" Jenkins Led Heavy Attack Against White Boys With Four Hits in Five Times at Bat Last Sunday Afternoon The Harrisburg Giants form one diamond-shaped crossword puzzle that the Bushwicks do not seem able to solve this season. The Bushwicks are not the only local team that has found the Pennsylvania colored aggregation unbeatable—as a matter of fact, they are the only team in the metropolitan district that has been able to hold Harrisburg to a tie—but they have suffered the most defeats at the hands of the colored boys. Harrisburg took two more flops out of the Bushwicks at Dexter Park Sunday, winning the first game by a score of 6 to 4 and the second by 4 to 2. Mammy Cooper's boys, David and Samuel, pitched for the Giants, Dave winning the opener and Samuel the nightcap. Bill Hockenbury twirled the opener for the Bushwicks and Stanley Baumgartner performed in the twilight struggle. TEN Jenkins, Harrisburg's speedy little left fielder, led the Pennsylvanians' heavy attack in the first game with four hits in five times at bat. The visitors banged out total of fourteen hits in this contest against eight for the Bushwicks. Jenkins got one hit in three efforts in the second game, while Ione Run Charieston came through with two hits in each tussle. First Game Hard Struggle. The first game was a struggle all the way, Harrisburg was first to score, getting two runs in the fourth inning. With one out, charleston singled to left and Canada doubled in the same direction for the first run. Dixon then hit one that eluded Jimmy Irving, and when Eddie Gerner fumbled the pellet Canaday tailed. The Bushwicks came back with a run in their half when Joe Welss walked, stole second after Eppy Barnes popped out, went to third on a poor throw by Gomez, Harrisburg's catcher, and scored when corner singled to left. Dave Cooper's Wildness Costly, The Dexter Parkers forged ahead with two runs in the sixth on Barnes' single, Gerner's triple and Dave Cooper's wild throw, but Harrisburg put the game in the refrigerator by tallying four runs on five successive clean hits after the first batter had expired at first. Jenkins tripled, Perez doubled, Brockwith singled, Charleston tripped and Canaday singled. The Giants made it a double victory by scoring two runs in the third inning and two more in the fifth session of the nightcap. With one out in the third, Brockwith walked, Charleston singled and the tour scored on Dixon's single after Canaday out. In the fifth, after Brockwith died at first, Charleston signed and stole second, Canaday tripled and tallied when Pepposki made a bad throw after O Stetson Hats STYLES TO SUIT EVERY TYPE WE would not sell you a style unsuited to your type—you'd never be satisfied and neither would we.

MUNN BROADCASTS ON GODFREY MONTE MUNN, the hard-hitting Nebraskan, who meets George Godfrey, the Black Shadow of Leiperville, in the feature twelve-rounder at Ebbets Field tonight, is rarin' to go against the big-time heavyweights. He told Promoter Humbert J. Fugazy the other afternoon that he intended to box as often as possible and that he was extremely confident of beating Godfrey. "I wanted Godfrey," said Monte, "and I made Dan Hickey get the match. Perhaps old Dan thought I was biting off more than I could chew, but I wanted Godfrey and I got him. Furthermore, I'll beat him. And after that I want Jack Sharkey, Paulino, Tom Heeney or any of the crowd. The closer I am to the man closest to the championship the happier I'll be. I'm ready now. If I can't beat every boxer in my path to the title, then I might as well know it right away "I'm not laboring under any delusions. I know that if I'm not good enough right now I'll probably never be good enough to cope with the champion. And that's why I sent Hickey out to get Godfrey. I saw him kneok out Jim Maloney in Philadelphia and right then and there I made up my mind that Godfrey is the man to meet. I believe Godfrey is the strongest contender for heavyweight honors, better than any in what might be called the first flight. And I believe the Maloney battle proved that. If I can knock him out, and I'm sure I can, then I'll be in the spotlight." Munn has been training hard for this battle. He always is in great physical condition and seldom needs much work. But for this battle he has been doing plenty of boxing, using twice as many sparring partners as heretofore. In the semi-final contest of six rounds Lou Barba, the Greenwich Village speedster, and Jack Moresca, of South Brooklyn, clash. Other sixers on the card are: Earl Little Blue vs. Anderson Buster Martin; Murray Cilitz vs. Larry Bilello; Jake Warren vs. George Gemmas, and in the curtain raiser of four rounds Joe Oliver crosses gloves with Al Brun, of Long Island City. SCALES HIT TWO GODFREY AND HOMERSSUNDAY MUNN READY Hebrews and Farmers Are Also Beaten in Week= End Contest The hard hitting of George Scales, Alonzo Montalvo and Charlie Mason gave the Lincoln Glants three more victories over the past week-end. Saturday, with Montalvo pitching, the Lincoln's shut out the Farmers by a score of 3-0, and Sunday they defeated the Philadelphia Hebrews, 15-13, and the Bronx Glants, 6-2. The pitching of Montalvo on Saturday and Rector against the Bronx Glants were big factors in these games. Montalvo allowed but two hits, while Rector let the rival Glants down with six scattered bingles. The first game of the doubleheader Sunday was a free hitting affair, with Chambers on the mound for the local team. Only the heavy batting of his teammates saved the Lincolnons from defeat. Mason and Rojo got home runs in this game and George Scales made two against the Bronx Giants. The Philadelphia Professionals will be the attraction against the Lincoln Giants next Sunday.

WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 14, 1927 Leiperville's Dark Shadow Easing Into the Fistic Spotlight Will history repeat itself? That is what they are asking down around Philadelphia, where George Godfrey, the "Black Shadow of Helperville," is regarded as the coming heavyweight champion of the world. Godfrey meets Monte Munn, the Nebraska lawmaker, in the main 12-rounder on Humbert J. Fugary's popular-priced card at Ebbets Field tonight. The Philadelphia fans are wondering if Godfrey will come along to the title even as James J. Jeffries did after serving as a sparring partner for James J. Corbett and then winning the championship from Bob Fitzsimmons. Godfrey served as a sparring mate for Jack Dempsey when the latter was champion. He was the main sparring partner on Dempsey's list and always gave him his greatest workouts. In fact, rumor has it that some of Godfrey's workouts with Dempsey were too good for the former heavyweight king. There was that story about the training camp in Great Fells, Montana, where Dempsey trained for his battle with Tom Gibbons at Shelby. Godfrey was summarily dismissed from the Dempsey camp and the story at that time was that he had knocked out Dempsey in a sparring bout when the champion had lost his head and the pair went at it hammer and tongs. Corbett's workouts with Jeffries were on the same order. They were behind closed doors for the most part and many were the stories of the day on what Big Jeff was doing to Corbett in these sessions. Godfrey, since his one-round knockout of Jim Maloney, is regarded as a great prospect for the next year of heavyweight activity. He is certain to play an important role in the winter caromble of the big fellows who hope to reach the challenging point by the next outdoor season. Before meeting Maloney, Godrey enjoyed the greatest season of his career in California, where he did not lose a battle. Huguenot Tennis Club Loses to Runyon Heights Tennis Club in a return match played at Macombs Park. John Calins lost to A. Gittens, 4-6, 9-6, 1-6.

Abdulah lost to B. Crosby and H. Myers, 6-1, 6-1. The Hulguenots defeated the Runyon Heights in the original match game, and arrangements will be made to play a deciding match in the near future. JACK JOHNSON IN TROUBLE JACK JOHNSON IN TROUBLE Stribling and John Arthur's Man Driven From Omaha Ring OMAHA, Nebraska, Sept. 8.—A crowd of 7,000 persons rioted last night and demanded return of the money they had paid to see "Young" Stribling of Georgia and Leo Delbel fight, Jimmy Drexel, the referee, declared the bout no contest in the sixth round. Drexel said Stribling wasn't trying to fight and Delbel, a Kansas City pugilist, "didn't know how." As a result, the fighters were to appear before the state boxing commissioner to explain their actions. Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion, who was "handling" Delbel, was to appear before a police magistrate because he attempted to interfere when police took the fighters in custody. Purses of both boxes were held up Stribling admitted he didn't fight as he should have, but said he had injured his right hand when he struck Delibel on the head early in the fight. The referee said he failed to see the blow which injured the Georgia heavyweight's hand and newspaper men in their accounts of the fight made similar assertions. Delibel, it was asserted, did not land a substantial blow throughout the fight. The bout was to have gone ten rounds. When the fight was stopped the crowd rushed for the box office, demanding return of admission money. Police controlled the situation, however, before it became serious. TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE.. Ala.. Sept. 7.—Negotiations are on foot by the Detroit-Tuskegee Association and the Detroit-Wilberforce Club to have Tuskegee and Wilberforce play a football game in Detroit on November 12. It was announced by the committee on the regulation of athletics at Tuskegee. EDWARDS AGAIN TO THE FRONT Mile Run Captured Last Saturday by Metropolitan Half-Mile Champ Phil Edwards, metropolitan half-mile mile champion, turned miler on Saturday and captured the mile run at the Brooklyn, Edison track and field meet at Poly Prep Field in 4 minutes 35 1-5 seconds. Willie Sullivan, of the Pauliet A. C., finished second, nearly 100 yards behind the colored streak of the Holy Name Club, with Harry Werbin, of the Milrose A. A., in third position. Danny Dauria, of the Central Y. M. C. A., made a ramp of it in the 100-yard dash, beating R. Corsble of the New York Central A. A., and Bernie Blannchard, former scholastic star, in 10 2-5 seconds. In the only other open event the Holy Name Club, with Edwards, Weisman, Carroll and Sober running in the order named, won the scratch mile relay in 3:37 1-5. The New York Stock Exchange quartet was second, with the Swedish-American A. C. third. In a baseball game that was pre- liminary to the meet the Brooklyn Edison nine defeated the Phila- delphia Edison team, 3 to 2.

Turn Your Spare Time Into Dollars STRAIT-TEX CHEMICAL COMPANY 689 SIXTH AVENUE PITTSBURGH, PENNA. 图 LINCOLN AGAIN ON SCHEDULE Sept. 15 Is Date Set for Initial Seaside Football Practice By JAMES B. CLARKE. HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Sept. 5.-The first practice in preparation for the hard schedule just ahead will be held, as announced by Coach Gideon E. Smith, on September 15. A few of the old regulars and substitutes will be on hand to start with the new candidates the pre-practice exercises, which are in the estimation of many, a very important part of football practice. Seven vacancies will have to be filled in the team that won the championship of the Colored intercollegiate Athletic Association for 1926. These are two ends, which were held down by McGowan and Davis, who was an all-C. I. A. A. selection; two guard positions formerly held by Banks and Robinson, who leave through graduation; center position, formerly filled by Reuben A. Munday, all-C. I. A. A. selection, who is lost to the team through graduation; tackle position, filled by Ruffin, who has played his time out in the C. I. A. A.; and fullback, filled by James L. Thatcher, lost to the team through graduation. These positions, Coach Smith realizes, will be hailed to fill, but on the other hand, he states, the abundance and quality of candidates does not warrant any cause to worry. J. Spencer Ruffin will probably devote his time to assisting in the training of line men. The four men of the 1926 championship team who are returning to form the nucleus around which Coach Smith is expecting to build a team fit to stand up under the heavy schedule are Captain William D. Williams "Bulldog" Williams) of Tulsa, Okla.; ex-Captain William E. Lee (("Wildman" Lee) of Petersburg, Va.; Elmer Baker, star triple threat of Phoebus, Va., and George Byrd ("Jazz" Byrd), brainy quarterback of Wilmington, N. C. These men are few in number, but they represent a bulwark of strength, brain, speed and experience, which will be necessary to weather the storm in the first two or three games of the season. Resumption of athletic relations with Lincoln University of Chester County, Pa., again brings them on the Blue and White schedule. The game will be played in Baltimore, on October 15, providing plans are carried out. The game looms up as being one of the hard spots in the Seaside schedule. Lincoln University has secured the services of Dr. W. E. Morrison, former Howard mentor, and it is expected that the team produced by him will be none less than the best. The game is scheduled for October 15, which means that both teams will have to work hard in order not to show early season form when they meet. The game is second on the Blue and White'menu, but Coach Smith hopes that his team will be rounded up by that time. The Thanksgiving tilt, as usual, will be played with Union University in Richmond, Va. Last year both teams went up to the final game without losing and, as a result, a pure championship game was played between Hampton and Union on Armstrong Field. Hampton's Blue and White squad won that game; who will win this year? The schedule of Hampton's games is as follows: Oct. 8—Lynchburg Seminary in Lynchburg. Oct. 15—Lincoln University in Baltimore. Oct. 22—Va. State College at Hampton. Nov 25 - St. Paul at Hampton. Nov 5 - Shaw University in Raleigh. Nov 12 - A, & T. College at Hampton. Nov 19 - University in Raleigh. Nov 26 - University in Raleigh. Union University in Richmond. FLOWERS WHIPS SO. AMERICAN FLOWERS WHIPS SO. AMERICAN But the Color'd Boy Failed to Get the Nod at Ebbets Field Last Week It was a hectic battle that took place between Bruce Flowers and Stanislas Loayza at Eibets Field last week, but there wasn't anything hectic about the decision when they handed it down in favor of the Smith American fighter. The colored hat put up one of the best battles of his career and the customers saw Loayza in trouble more than once. . During the course of the battle Loayza staged some of those beautiful furries when Bruce was up against the ropes—those furries that look so good to Barnum's faithful but don't mean a thing. Flowers had the situation well in hand and his trick of going up against the ropes and resting while Loayza wore himself out trying to hit him, was one of the best pieces BRUCE FLOWERS IN GREAT ENCOUNTER Homestead Greys and Lincolns to Meet Again of ring strategy seen in Brooklyn for many a day. A glutton for punishment, Loayza took plenty. The solid blows from the colored fighter had the Chilean groggy half the time and Flowers should have got the not signifying it was a great fight and a greater victory for him. They called it a draw and sundown readers will readily recognize what a draw decision means when a colored and white fighter—with the white fighter being groomed for the big shots—are on their feet at the end of a bout. Ramon Castillo, a Cuban boxer who made quite a hit in Chicago, outpointed Sammy White on the same card. Castillo won the international A. A. U. featherweight championship in 1924, after having appeared in twenty-two bouts, winning the majority. He has had fifty-five bouts since turning professional and some of the experts are predicting great things for him. He is a lightweight and, as usual in the case of a colored fighter, has been forced to give away weight, and plenty of it, to be able to get fights. Castillo plans to leave for Europe the latter part of September and will try his fortunes in the big clubs across the water. He will be paired with some good boy on the card at Ebbets Field the night Johnny Dundee meets Tony Canzonieri. An offer was made to Jimmy Goodrich to meet the crack Cuban, but the white boy turned it down.

Harloe, chairman of the arrangements committee, is putting the final touches to the boxing program. He has signed champions in four classes. The proceeds will help defray the expenses of caring for patients who are unable financially to pay. The Long Island College Hospital records show it has been doing a vast amount of free work. One phase of the hospital work that will be helped by the show is the blood fund. This fund goes to pay for blood for persons who require it and are too poor to purchase blood. PISANO SAYS HE WILL WIN Italian Mitt Pusher Says That Bruce Is Made to Order for Him Augie Pisano. Coney Island's aggressive lightweight scraper, is willing to fight anyone of his weight in the world. Augie is not sure that he can lick them all, bpt there is one fellow that the swarthy Italian believes is made to order for him. That person is Bruce Flowers, Harlem's great colored lightweight star, who meets Pisano in the stellar six-rounder at the Ridgewood Grove Sporting Club Saturday night. There is no mystery about Pisano's confidence in his ability to beat Flowers. Hasn't he defeated the colored star twice already? This may come as a surprise to close followers of the boxing game; nevertheless, it is true. Just two short years ago Flowers was rapidly making himself known to fastic fans by reason of victories over some real good performers. Pisano at that time was also traveling at top speed, having just beaten Johnny Vestri, Joey Celmars, Joe Ryder and others of like calibre. The pair were matched and after ten gruelling rounds Pisano was awarded the decision. Bruce didn't take kindly to the award and asked for another chance. The same thing happened again. Pisano won a ten-round decision and fans were convinced he was Flowers' master. But Augle will meet a far different fighter this time when he crawls through the ropes to hook up with Bruce. 2nd and 4th Mondays, 1st and 3rd Tuesdays, 2nd and 4th Wednesdays, 2nd and 4th Thursdays, and all saturday nights. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 14, 1927 FUR FLIES WHEN AMATEURS BOX Garrett of Salem Pasted Lew White Good and Plenty Murry Kest, of Seward Gym, battled his way to two triumphs at the amateur boxing show staged under the auspices of the Williamsburgh Boys' Club at the Coney Island Stadium last Friday night. In his first bout Kest outpointed George Rosen, of Willie Beecher's Gym, in fine fashion and in the 115-pound class final got the verdict over Tony Ambrosol, of the Trinity Club. Throughout both bouts Kest displayed brilliant infighting. Lew Feldman, of Willie Beecher's, scored a well-earned victory over Danny Levine, of Seward Gym, in a special 11S-pound skirmish. At the end of the usual three rounds the judges voted a draw and called for an extra frame in which Feldman was the aggressor throughout. Maxie Gold, of Seward Gym, won his final with Charles Gordon, of Willie Beecher's Gym, in the 12S-pound division by default when the club doctor would not allow Gordon to compete in the final because of a foul he received in his preliminary with Tony Scalafina, of the Elizabeth Club. In a similar fashion Ben Bonavita, also Seward, won the 138-pound final from Lew White, unattached, when the latter forfeited because of severe punishment sustained in his preliminary with Joe Garrett of the Salem-Crescent A. C. The White-Garrett affair was a four-round slugfest in which Garrett looked the better throughout. White made a strong finish in the third round and perhaps earned a draw, but in the fourth frame Garrett did all the leading and it looked as if the verdict should have gone to him. The summary: Prellinparles. 112-Pound Class—Sum Gelber, Seward Gymnasium, knocked out Hymie round, 3 minutes, Gymnasium, second round, 3 minutes, 118-Pound Class—Murry Kest, Seward Gymnasium, defeated Tony decision, three rounds, judges' decision, three rounds. 128-Pound Class—Maxie Gold, Seward Gymnasium, won from Charles Gordon, Beecher's Gymnasium, by default. 129-Pound Class—Ben Bonavita, Seward Gymnasium, won from Low White, unattached, by default. SMITH COMING TO THE FRONT BALTIMORE, Md.—Willie K. O. Smith registered his fourteenth consecutive knockout Friday night at the New Albert Auditorium when he sent Kid Sewell to the mat in the first round for the full count. Sewell was floored three times before he gave up the ghost. In the other feature bout "Iron Man" Dillard won a six-round decision from "Bony" Lipscomb. "Dellr." Campbell, Douglass High School Iad, won a decision over James Luke Dorsey in the semifinal. This was Campbell's first professional fight. In the prellminaries Hayes Scott defeated Joe Cook, Buddy Garratt defeated Al Jones, Tony Gibson defeated Kid Fat "Em Up, and Young Norfolk won from Bobby Franklin; all four-round bouts. Over 1,500 saw the houts. The weekly show is under the management of the Northwestern A. A. Garland Mackey, promoter, and "Della" Campbell, matchmaker. Friday night Young Harry Wills meets Humphrey Amboy of New Jersey in the feature bout of six rounds? Fine Program for Games At Ulmer Park Sunday By long odds the finest athletic program that has ever been staged at Ulmer Park will be held next Sunday afternoon (September 18), under the auspices of the Norwegian Turn Society. Topping off a full list of track and field events confined to Scandinaviaz-American and Turn Verein athletes and three open handicap events will be the A. A. U. National Pentathlon Championship, a five event all-around test, an all-around weight throwing contest between Matt McGrath, Pat McDonald and Elnar Halversen, and a soccer football game. The National Pentathlon Championship will bring together the leading all-around athletes of this country and will furnish high class competition. BECKLER WINS OVER HALFORD Many Salem-Crescent Boxers in Maris Stella Bouts Last Week Charles Beckler of the Astoria K. of C. received the decision over Oscar Halford of the Salem-Crescent A. C. in a special 138-pound bout at the amateur boxing show at the Maris Stella Council K. of C. at Far Rockaway last Friday night. Beckler outpointed and outgeneraled his adversary to gain the verdict. In another special. 138-pound clash. Jack Block of Willie Beecher's Gymnasium knocked out Jim McLaughlin of the South Oxone A. C. after two minutes and ten seconds of the third round. Harry Regal of the National A. C. knocked out Jim Flivano of Willie Beecher's Gymnasium, after fifty-seconds of the second round of their 160-pound semi-final, but in the final lost on technical kaye to Jim Anderson of the 135th Street Y. M. C. A. after thirty-five seconds of the second frame. The summary: 118-Found Class—Ten Benthan, Holy Name Club, defended Dick Duffy, National A.

WATSON BACK AT HOWARD Took Coach Course at Northwestern University This Summer WASHINGTON, D. C.—Howard's undefeated "Bison" coach, Louis L. Watson, has recently returned from a coaching course at Northwestern University, Chicago. The Howard mentor sports an enviable record, having coached the Laward University team three years without a single defeat and allowing only one score (a lone touchdown by West Virginia) in the last two seasons. Watson does not figure that he knows all about the game yet and takes every available opportunity to add to his knowledge and coaching ability. In addition to his professional training at Springfield College, he has studied under Knute Rockne, Bill Roper of Princeton, Tuss McLaughry of Brown, Jess Hawley of Dartmouth, Arnold Hoewey of Harvard, Judge Steffen of Carnegie Tech., J. M. Phelan of Purdue, and Dick Hauley of Northwestern. The local mentor reports gratifying results from his recent study. When asked how his system compares with those of the larger institutions, Coach Watson said his teams have given excellent exhibitions of the "Pop" Warner system as explained by "Dick" Hanley in the recent course at Northwestern. He figures his "huddle shift" to be an original contribution to offensive football and plans to use this style of attack again this season. Rockne and Watson are two coaches who believe in the effectiveness of the shift and both figure that the one-second pause will not nullify its value. STARS LEADING EAST'N LEAGUE Islanders Have Splendid Chance to Cop Pennant in the Race BY LLOYD P. THOMPSON. Alejandro Pompez's Cuban Stars have slipped into the lead in the Eastern Colored League, and with the present layout for the remainder of the league schedule have an excellent chance to cop the second half bunting and thereby gain the opportunity to play a post-season series with the Bacharach Giants for the league championship. While it's true that to date the islanders have engaged in less contests during the second half than any other club with the exception of the Brooklyn Royal Giants, Senor. Pompez, the Cuban mentor, is making it known in no uncertain tones that the Stars are fulfilling their schedule as staked out by the league solos. Sunday washouts, due to rain, have cut quite a swath in the Stars' schedule. Most of these contests were scheduled at David's Stadium, Newark, N. J., where the Islanders have been holding forth as the home team. Playing only Sunday dates at home, as several other of the league clubs, gives Pompez no opportunity to play off postponed games. The Bradley Beach, N. J., proposition was thrown over by the local promoter, which also affected the Cubans by a number of contests that were booked there. At the present time, with eight pins and six losses, the Cubans can afford to lose five of their remaining twelve games. The Bacharachs must win six out of nine to finish out in front. Both the Harrisburg Giants, and Hilldale, who are traveling at a 5,000 clip, have an outside chance to win the tag. Taking opportunity by the forelock Senior Pompez has added some youthful talent to his fast traveling Stars that will not only help him in the present dash for the pennant, but will add the ever necessary vigor to the veteran team. From the Havana Red Sox the Stars have secured Talelo Valas, an 15-year-old youth, who is sitting in at short stop. The other newcomer is Paul Pedvero, a young catcher, who is helping out from man Fernandez with the receiving chores. Both youngsters are agile and have shown great bursts of speed on the base paths, especially Valgas, who is credited with doing a hundred yards in less than ten seconds in full baseball attire. HOWARDSTARTS PRACTICE SOON Many Veterans Ready to Take Grid to Prepare for Season WASHINGTON. D. C.—Coach Watson has issued an invitation to forty candidates to return for preseason football practice, starting September 15 on the University Campus. Of this number thirty are veterans of last year's championship squad. The coach, who established himself last season as a strict disciplinarian, has indicated his determination to carry out his program with whatever material he finds present on September 15. He rehearsed last season's experience, when such valuable-men as Bob Miller, Harry Payne and others found it impossible to break into the first line-up because the first string had been selected before these men reported. "Knuto" as his men affectionately refer to him, believes in combinations. Veterans to recruit. In looking over the roster, it is interesting to note that ten veterans are already in Washington. They are: Capt. Smith, "Tick" Smith, "Pete" Tyson, Kelley, Hawes, Hall, Ben Brown, Louis Campbell, Sallie, Simpson, and Manager "Buck" Braden. Others expected to report are: "Jack" Coles, "Hoss" Ross, "Dan" Brown, Payne, Hinton, "Jack" Young, "Snake" Ewell, Capt. "Biff" Martin, Ellison, Hawkins, "Bob" Miller, Rainey, Webb, Thomas, Price, Hunter, Jefferson, and "Andy" Smith. In addition to this formidable array of veterans, a likely group of recruits will get a try-out. The Howard schedule for the The Howard schedule for the season follows: causea Oct. 1—Bluefield (W.

BestAmusementPages in Greater New York BestAmusement in Greater New AT HOME and ABROAD Being Comments on Our Entertainers In All Parts of the World GOOD THEATRE MANNERS. Never enter a theatre quietly, nor wait in line, but push, shove, fall in, run in or knock the door down. Your seat may walk away if you don't hurry. On entering, keep your hat on, and only remove it if you have to. Of course, you should only take it out of the seat you will and never if the person seated behind you should politely ask you to. On passing others to reach your seat, step on as many feet as possible and never apologize. Should the usher ask to see your ticket, claiming you are in the wrong seat, bail him out and refuse to budge. Tell him you paid for your ticket and will sit anywhere you please. If you are in somebody else's seat, that's their hard luck. Don't whisper to your friends, but talk politely if you have seen the show before and are telling them what's coming next. Don't mind the other patrons. You should worry if they are annoyed by your talk and can't hear the performance! Smoke all you please. The cheaper the cigar the better. If the ladies around you can't stand the fumes, let them move. Should you feel warm, remove your coat, especially if you have a silk shirt on. Prep your seat up on a vacant seat whenever you can. Chapping the hands is too tame. Tell, stomp and whistle when you applaud. If you are in a box or loge seat, attract as much attention as possible. Use gallery methods. Should your friends not see you, stand up and wave, hiss, call them; in fact, do anything to be noticed. Be a real "big timer." Take a pocket flask or a bottle along with you. Pass it down the alce to your friends if possible. Eat your dinner at the theatre. Keep the candy and soda man busy. If you can rattle a paper bag or crack peanut shells during tense mo- ments, the other patrons will be de- lighted. During the show, set up and leave your seat as often as possible, espe- cially if you must make others miser- able in doing so. The idea is to be seen; otherwise what's the use of go- ing to a theatre? TO STARS AND "WOULD-BE" STARS. When you're up on the top You can easily flop. 85% sure. Never "high-hat" a friend. Like a bird or a kite. For a while we take flight. But we all must COME DOWN in the end. SAM CRAIG. We peeked through the stage door of the Lafayette the other evening and said "Hello!" to a gentleman who has more than four cars. Sam Craig has seen them come and go. Here is a stage manager who knows his business. Sam never plays on the job nor allows others to do it. Windows is done in done quickly and quietly. If you want to see scenes set up and shifted correctly, light and other cues attended to properly, and rules enforced to the letter, Sam Craig is your man. Firenze McClinn, popular performer and wife of Frank Montgomery, the well-known producer, has opened a theatrical costume shop at 2143 Seventh avenue, Suite 106. The Bud Allen Music Shop at 2290 Seventh avenue is open for business. Performers who haven't the time to go downtown for music can be saved doing so, as "Bud" has the very latest and everything in musical line. SUCCESS Success is a happy conscience The knowledge that you have sought To do the right thing by your fellow- man, Although it has come to naught. Success isn't fame or riches, Nor gaining one's selfish ends; Success is to be respected And loved by a wealth of friends, POOLS. The man who knows he's been a fool And opens up his eyes Begins to lead his class in school And soon is rated wise. But he who's been and is a fool, And doesn't know nor need Will ever be Mistress's tool And meet a painful end. Certain leaders in the theatrical profession display a scupid narrowness that is appalling and often costly, artistically and financially. Time and again we will see an overly sweet, progressive and intollerable character. We often nose to spite their own face by allowing their personal feelings to overrule their better judgment. For example, A needs a good corner punch. B is the best in town. B who knows is the best in town, he gives the job to C, an unattune. The result is a weakened band and a cancelled contract. Ask A why he didn't like him, because the answer just don't like him, because about something a long time ago." Producers at Work A very busy and prosperous season is forecast by the various producers of colored revues who operate in this city and who practically make their headquarters at the Lafayette Theatre. Many are hard at work on their new season shows. Among those who will soon complete their productions LAFAYETTE CONTINUES TO PULL 'EM IN "Dixie Magnolias" Coming to the Alhambra Still Entertaining at the Alhambra THE DANCE COMPANY ANITA ALEXANDER Was Picked to Lead the Spanish Number in "Lucky Numbers" at the Alhambra Theatre. Incidentally We Would Like to Ask Why Those Picking Names for the Various Shows at the Above House Never Seem to Hit on Something in Conjunction With the Show Being Offered. Butterbeans and Sue Score Big Jimmie Cooper's New Columbia Wheel Show Gets Big Reception Jimmie Cooper's 1928 Revue opened at the Lafayette Theatre last Monday for a week's run and was warmly received by a crowded house. Butterbeans and Susie are the stars of the show, and the reception they received was exceeded only by the wild enthusiasm which greeted every appearance of Bill Robinson last week. The entire stage of the Lafayette Theatre had to be stripped to receive the two trainloads of scenery and lighting effects which this new show brought. The settings were nothing short of gorgeous. Every number was presented in a different scene and the result was a succession of "hit" numbers against the most beautiful scenic background which has been seen in a local theatre in many months. The orchestra gave the show a flying start with a unique and rousing overture in which the drummer, the saxophone and the banjo worked "specialties." Then Sonny and Eddie, two of the fastest dancers on the stage, joined the chorus and started the show on its fast, enjoyable, hilarious way. Butterbeans and Susie have a new act which is a real hit. They were called upon to respond to encore after encore. During a cabaret scene in the show, Susie rendered some of the old songs which made her famous. The audience just went wild over them. Butterbeans helped along by a display of the funniest antics indulged in by a comedian in the memory of the reviewer. Le Roy Broomfield and Aurora Greely came in for a liberal share of the audience's applause. Broomfield has a splendid voice and is a most artistic dancer. Miss Greely also demonstrated that the reputation as an acrobatic dancer is well deserved. Earl Tucker did some splendid tap dancing and Earl Edwards' contribution to the comedy helped things along wonderfully. The photoplay part of the program included Tom Mix's latest picture, "The Cirous Ace." On Thursday the feature picture will be "The Shamrock and the Rose," based on the theme of "Abie's Irish Rose." "Adam and Eyil" at the Douglas This Week "Adam and Evil," initial co-starring vehicle of New Cody and Aileen Pringle, which opened Saturday at the Douglas Theatre, may honestly be said to show these two players to the greatest advantage they have ever been seen on the screen. Two years ago Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer surprised the picture-goers by changing Cody from a "heavy" to a comedy player. Recently the same organization cast the sophisticated Miss Pringle in the role of a demure Swiss pennant girl in "Body and Soul." Both of the changes proved instantaneous hits with the picture-going public. Going a step further the executives of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer have ordained that Cody and Miss Pringle shall be co-starred in feature comedies. and announce their presentation at the Lafayette Theatre are: Irvin C. Miller, Dewey Wenglans, Leonard Harper, Billy King, Clarence Robinson, Frank Montgomery, Earl Dancer and Sam Manning.

De Bidgell Making Good Youth Holds Responsible Position at Downtown Night Club Hermann De Bidgell, 1842 Seventh avenue, is the 22-year-old secretary of the New York Frolic night club, 228 West Fifty-second street, which recently opened its doors to gay Broadway. De Bidgell holds his position following the failure of three white girls who are said to have wasted more stationery than they rendered service. De Bidgell called at the club one day to see a friend while preparations were being made for the opening. Julius Martin, white, owner-manager, was lamenting the serious delay in getting out a pile of important work from the office. He was actually sunk, they say. De Bidgell's friend suggested that perhaps De Bidgell could materially assist him and he was promptly put to work, and the task was quickly and efficiently done. Martin was so well pleased with the young fellow's work that he has retained him permanently. Now the entire business of the place passes through De Bidgell's hands. All the employees are responsible to the youthful secretary. He writes the checks and pays the bills, and takes complete charge of the Frolic's cash activities. He is given the greatest latitude and freedom of action in his work. De Bidgell says. Jack Mathews. Be Popular PLAY JAZZ We will Alhambra Has Splendid Bill "Dixie Magnolias" With Popular Fa.rrites to Be Offered Next Week Gales of laughter billowed out over Seventh avenue this week through the lobby of the New Alhambra Theatre, where the "Pulman Dandies" hold forth until the end of the week. There were crowds—and then more crowds. The funmakers have been increased in number by the addition of popular Emmet Anthony and also Walter Crumble and Onion Jeffrey. Their introduction to the Alhambra was the occasion of an enthusiastic reception. Many who knew that Emmet Anthony was just out of the hospital commented on the fact that he seemed funnier than ever. There is a "School Days" playlet that afforded much opportunity for clever acting by Tim and Gertie Moore and Bebe Mack. All the "bronze beauties" were school kids in the cutest of costumes, contrasting, in their dainty simplicity, with the very rich trappings worn in the ensembles and the numbers on the illuminated runway. The comedy throughout the revue is sprightly but clean. Even ministers are seen amid the Alhambra audience and have expressed themselves in favor of theatrical entertainment when kept on the plane of the programs so far given at the Alhambra. The entirely new revue which will begin next Monday is called "Dixie Magnollas," and the management claims to have a lot of surprises and novelities in preparation for the coming program. By the way, Harlem now has the opportunity, to see the famous Pathe News on the very day it is issued. There is no need now to go downtown to the Paramount or the Roxy Theatre, as the Alhambra serves up the news of the world on the very same day. white, is the business partner of Mr. Martin. Born in Vancouver, B. C., De Bidgoll was raised in conservative Washington, D. C., where he graduated from the Dunbar High School. He has studied at A. and T. College in Greensboro, N.

LAFAYETTE Fall Opening At the Savoy All Kinds of Features Promised at Popular Ballroom This Season The management of the Savoy Ballroom can very well afford to rest on laurels gained during the past two seasons, but they are not satisfied, in spite of the plaudits and the large gatherings which have graced the many affairs at this, one of the city's most commodious and well appointed amusement resorts. For the season now at hand arrangements have been completed to give many surprises to the patrons of the place, chief among the features being that Opportunity event which the entire amusement world will be looking forward to. At an enormous expense the ballroom has been thoroughly renovated, the colors of the rainbow arresting the attention of one as they enter the place. In keeping with the policy, the management will also strive to continue that splendid line of music which is not only featured at the room, but sent over the air from time to time. The name Savoy has come to mean a great deal in the amusement life of the community. Many Improvements Noted at the Lafayette With the opening of the new theatrical season, many noteworthy improvements are being made in the Lafayette Theatre. The most noticeable improvement is the new set of curtains and draperies which decorators are now hanging. These have added quite markedly to the good appearance of the house. The ornamental terra-cotta front of the theatre is being renovated by a gang of men who are using a secret acid formula. This is rapidly making the building look like new and showing it up as a really fine edifice. A very ingenious improvement now being worked upon is the conversion of the ventilating system installed this summer into a heating system, that is, a system of circulating the warm air evenly over the theatre so that every part will be heated to the same temperature. This system is the same as is now being employed in the Broadway picture palaces. A new hardwood maple stage floor has been installed. This was installed last week to the delight of Bill Robinson, who said that it improved 'tap dancing fifty per cent. New types of exhaust fans have been installed in the wash rooms. The management is trying to have the appearance and comfort of the theatre keep pace with the splendid shows, which so far this season have been bigger and better than those presented heretofore. Folks generally are now aware that the Alhambra is absolutely an "equal rights theatre" under the new ownership, and not only Harlem people but many from long distances come to enjoy the fast-paced programs. "For the Love of Mike" at the Roosevelt Here's a picture to laugh and to cry over—a picture that will go straight to your heart. It's "For the Love of Mike," the new First National attraction, which shows Saturday, Sunday, Monday at the Roosevelt Theatre. Robert Kane, who produced this new comedy-drama, gathered an all-star cast. Included in the acting aggregation are Ben Lyon, George Sidney, Ford Sterling, Claudette Colbert, Hugh Cameron, Richard Skeets, Gallagher, Rudolph Cameron and Mabel Swor. The story is about a foundling who is discovered by three men living in the notorious Hall's Kitchen district of New York. The men are an Irishman, a German and a Jew. All claim the little youngster but compromise at last by agreeing to bring him up co-operatively, so to speak. Anderson to Direct at The Renaissance Casino Professor Charles H.

PERHAPS the two peoples who have migrated least are the Eskimo and the American Negro. And for very good reasons. The first, because his climate is best a cold one; the second, because he lives in an economic environment, which, though not ideal, is perhaps, more advantageous than that of any other land. America for over two centuries has been the Mecca of the job-seeker the world over. Trace other than superficially the voluntary movement of any mass of humanity—Pilgrim Fathers, Huguenots, Jews, Irish, Bantu—and it will be found to be due, first of all, to economic motives, just as that of our nomadic ancestors who had to keep on the move, not so much because they wanted to, but because they wanted to, because they sought freedom to worship their God. That is true, because the God they sought most was economic betterment. Their opponents, Charles I and his party, held the economic power, and in a new land the Pilgrims hoped to be able to betray the ancestors of many of our leading American families even sold themselves into slavery in the colonies. As the Declaration of Independence implies, the majority of human beings will tolerate the loss of a part or even the major part of their rights, provided their daily bread is forthcoming. Most of us are like the bird in a cage, who will sing as long as he is fed and watered. Very, very few are like the bird of the forest, whose dominant passion is freedom, pure and simple. And the American Negro, North or South, by remaining at home in spite of conditions, is the distinct seeming irreducible, is only doing the human thing. The few who do leave nearly all return to become bigger boosters of their native land than ever. In Europe, the one and only white man's country, color prejudice is as rare as it is plentiful in Georgia or Florida. But here another problem faces the Negro, or any other immigrant, for that matter—a problem that is much sharper—the job. The Negro soon finds that Europe, with its surplus of labor, low wages, and keener struggle for existence, is no place for him. Some of the most bitter and disappointed human beings I have ever met are Negroes who have come to England or France, thinking that, because of the absence of color prejudice, they would be able also to get the economic essentials. Such have found that, instead of getting that, almost every hand seemed stretched to get or to take what they have. For Europeans, poorer or than Americans, are, as a rule, much keener. Americans in this country have been much maligned in this, it is not he, but the European, who is the money-chaser. Already with money, he is seeking social recognition. European immigrants have a tendency to accumulate money faster than native Americans. Homely Philosophy BY GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON The Fear of Ridicule THE fear of ridicule has halted many a man short of success. He could not face his family, his friends with his young, unrilled projects. They might laugh. They might not believe in him. The people who have carried the world's interests forward and placed them on higher ground were first jeered, then cheered. He who can walk solidly on two firm legs toward his goal, facing whatever comes of censure, blame or derision, has, by this alone, placed himself in the ranks of the brave who have no fear for ridicule. Politeness OUR relations with the world are mightily helped by means of the magic of politeness. A simple and pleasant "thank you" spoken at the right time and in the right way is often priceless in effect. princess if we search back through ... -By J. A. ROGERS- Perhaps the only Negroes who have been able to gain an economic footing in Europe are the dancers and musicians. These find themselves in a field all their own—a field in which their color is all in their favor. The result is that the majority of Negroes ans to be found abroad. Musicians. The jazz era created a vogue for the black musician and performer in Europe. Next to the Negro soldier, the Negro musician has done most D. R. HOPKINS — J. A. Rogers — to bring the Negro American to the notice of the European. There is also the Negro prizefighter, but his conduct has not always been above reproach. In Paris the Revue Negro, out of which came Josephine Baker, creates add of interest in the French Florence Mills is doing with her "Blackbirds" in London. But, without any desire to disapare, it must be noted that the interest so created is not an embracing one. It is highly popular, but it does not add prestige. Their art, if it can be so called, is evanescent. One is delighted by their dancing or singing, but on leaving the theatre one straightaway forgets. Match this up with the interest created by a great artist like Roland Hayes. The Negro American needs to cultivate more missionaries like Hayes and the late Edmund Jennings and send them hither. And as to the Negro actor, if he is forced into low comedy in America, here in Europe perhaps his only limit will be his ability. What Ira Aldridge did then can none again. His worst is its worst in America. Aldridge was playing Othello, being the only Negro in the company. In France, French Negroes play serious parts with white actors and actresses. At the Folles Bergere I saw the great Negro actor, Bengla, playing the role of Faust's "Mepistheles," his Marguerite being a white woman. Many Negro musicians have played before crowned heads and other leaders of European society. At Marselles I met Earl Granstaff, who had just landed a year's contract with one of the leading cabarets there. Mr. Granstaff has visited most of the cities he has played before the King and Queen of Spain, the late King of Romania, the Prince of Wales, and Kennil Pasha at Constantinople, where he also entertained Admiral Pristol and Mrs. Woodrow Wilson. In Vienna he played in an opera in which he was the only Negro person. He is also the composer of several songs which made a considerable hit. Mr. Granstaff is from New York City. He lives at Hiram Lodge and Ascension Commandery. He tells me, by the way, that he saw Negroes occupying more and higher posi- events of our lives we will find that many a happy or unhappy turning was influenced by some thoughtful or thoughtless act of ours in the past. We are the groundwork for our future success, let us not forget that politeness is a good investment. Pen Pointers By CLIFFORD L. MILLER. There are four ways to solve the problem of making a living: starve, sponge, steel or slave. Last August it seemed as if the Black Belt moved from Louisiana to Lenox avenue. In every organization there are workers, shirkers, jerkers and smirkers. No book was ever more popular or had more runs than the Book of Numbers. A man is always a pawn in a work's hand from the cradle to the grave. My but a horse must laugh at clumsy and Dancers and Musicians Have Gained Foothold tions in Constantinople than in any other place he has been. Rudolph Dunbar, another New Yorker, is having phenomenal success and has played before the King of Spain. He is a cornetist and tells me that he is having a golden instrument made. When last I heard of him he was playing in London. Josephine Baker is so well known that it will not be necessary that she has become except to that she has become and that her "Mémoirs" are being extensively advertised now at leading book stores. It would be impossible to mention all the musicians and performers in Paris at the present, but among those that may be mentioned are W. A. Johnson of the Johnson Trio and Quartette of 63 Rue Nemours, whose orchestra is a favorite at society functions at the Ritz and other fashionable places; Henry G. Walton, trumpeter of the International Five; the others being Opal Cooper, Harvey White, Palmer Jones, Nelson Kinkead, and Roscoe Burnett, all of whom are playing at Montmartre; the late E. E. Thompson, former bouncer of the Buffalo, played at the Bolles Bergere, at also Bill Taylor, Ben Marshall and Gay Murray. A Peters plays at Pigalle's Restaurant in Montmartre. Among the dancers are Harry Fleming of Philadelphia, who is a hit at the Moulin Rouge, and "Snowball," a youngster, who is the deli-hit of audiences at the Casino de Paris. At the Jardin d'Acclimation, in the Bols de Boulogne, is the Garland troupe of eight Negroes, a good many of whom are Americans. All are in a Negro village, which is supposed to represent a plantation scene in the South. They sing and dance, especially the Charleston, which is still a favorite in the Paris dance halls. These entertainers have been receiving considerable publicity in the daily press, and deserve it. One need not be surprised if, at the end of the seasons, some of them are offered contracts by leading music halls. Joe Boyd is conductor. While in the Garden I met A1 Brown, the boxer, who has since returned, an apleident, a well-known reputation besides he has won all but one of the eight fights in which he engaged, and that was a draw with Seeley, champion of Euone. Next in number to the entertainers are music students in the various conservatories or under private teachers. One of these I have met is Miss Katherine Yarborough of New York City. It was stated in our prominent papers that Miss Yarborough is in Paris opera, a statement she is anxious to deny. However, the paper in question doesn't appear to be so far wrong for. If one hears her sing, one wonders if Yarborough is very ambitious and says that she intends to take two years more of study under her private teacher, who is one of the best in France, and then a year or so in Italy. She recently gave a recital at Rheims. Among students are Andrew Posepond, formerly of the Martin Music School of New York, who is studying violin; Loula Jones, formerly of the New York Conservatory, who has also studied in Austria; Flora Conway of Philadelphia, who is studying piano; Roland Smith of Akron, O.; Henry Georges Walton, and William Lawrence, former acquaintance of Roland Hayes. 1.

Often to cure the heart God doth exert an entirely new man THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 14, 1927 A PROMINENT business man of Harlem consulted a doctor last week, and I am telling my readers about it because this business man was not sick. He told the physician he was feeling fine, eating well, sleeping right, and that his physical and mental powers seem to be all right, but that he desired the doctor to examine him thoroughly, because he wanted to "keep feeling fine." He did not want any disease to "creep upon him"; he wanted to be prepared to stop any oncoming disease. This was a new experience for this doctor. Negroes in Harlem do not consult a physician until they get a pain, a "misery" or a "weakness." In this particular case this business man was not too busy to get some "health insurance." He consulted the doctor to have his blood examined, his urine analyzed, his blood pressure taken, his heart and lungs examined, and a "heart to heart" talk with the physician relative to his personal habits. He wanted to know if he was "living right." his sleeping, his eating, his hours of work, his hours of play, all these things he desired regulated according to his physical powers and his age. He told the physician he did not want to die just as he began to live. This man is wise. He is the new type of Negro. May his number increase. Not so long ago a prominent Negro of Harlem died. He was sick only a week. He was not old. He was at the zenith of his business career. Everybody respected him; he was a big business man who had grown with the community. This man should be living today. He was too busy to think about himself. This community has lost a valuable citizen because he did not consult his physician at least once every six months.

The handles of all the flat silver placed to the right and left of the plate must be in a perfect line, with reference to the edge of the table. Service-Plates. — At a formal dinner it is considered correct to have a plate before each guest until the table is cleared for dessert. This is set in the center of each cover, one-half to one inch from the edge of the table, and is known as the service-plate. Upon this are placed dishes containing the first courses of the meal, such as fruit, oysters and soup. It is not removed until it is exchanged for the plate. This course after the soup is served. For less formal service the service-plate may be omitted. three-fourths full and place at the tip, or slightly to the right of the tip, of the knife. If two plates are used, they are placed side by side parallel to the edge of the table. Salts and Peppers. — If individual salt and pepper shakers are used, they should be placed directly in front of each cover. The newer method is to use not more than one pair for every two or three persons. Carving Knife and Fork.— Silver—All flat silver is laid in the order of its use, starting with the piece farthest from the plate on either side. Sometimes an exception is made and the large dinner knife and fork are placed next to the plate on either side. The two pieces of silver which come next to the plate should be far enough apart so that the edge of the largest plate to be used will not shadow over them. They are placed one-half to one inch from the edge of the table. The other knives, spoons and forks are placed close to the first ones arranged, but must not touch them. All the silver must be in the same straight line, compact but never crowded. Knives are placed to the right, the cutting edge toward the plate. Spoons are placed to the right with the bowl up. Forks are placed to the left with the tines up, with the exception of the oyster and cane forks, which are placed on the right, the knives are used by the right hand and no knife is used with these courses. Not more than three knives and three forks (not counting either butter knife or oyster fork) should be laid at one cover. If the meat contains courses enough to call for more silver, the additional pieces should be laid just before the course is served, or served on the plate containing the finger-howel and dolly. Ten and afternoon coffee spoons are laid across one side of the saucer, the handle of the spoon and the handle of the cup on the same straight line. Fruit spoons are laid on the fruit plates. The butter knife is placed across the rim of the bread and butter plate, the handle pointing diagonally toward the service plate or perpendicular to the edge of the table, making the same direction as the other flat silver. Bread and Butter Plates—At informal dinners bread and butter plates are placed at the tips or slightly to the left of the forks. At formal dinners these plates are usually omitted. Glasses—Always fill glasses.

WHEN boy the vicious in the home and his way day after The chronic kidney trouble which finally manifested itself during an acute infection would not have proved invulnerable if he had known previously of its presence and had taken the proper treatment for its cure. It is a significant fact that at the time of lifespan the peak of business and professional success that the death rate among such men is four times what it is in young manhood. This proves beyond a doubt the need for men in middle life to get a critical yearly examination. The Negro race needs its big business men; needs them badly. To have them die when their business and financial powers are needed is a calamity. The Negro business men are now advocating a yearly physical examination for the Negro business men Surgeon-General Ireland of the United States Army recently said that a yearly physical examination is at the very foundation of health conservation without which no true progress can be made. This yearly examination is in reality a "health insurance" and just as valuable and important as a fire insurance, and is far more protection than even a life insurance.

Carving Knife and Fork—The knife and fork on the table until needed; if placed on the table, the knife and gravy spoon are laid at the right, the fork to the left of the host. Finger-Bowls. — If needed after the first course they may be placed in front of the cover when the table is laid. Flower petals may be placed in each one. The finger-bowl is usually brought in on a plate covered with a dolly and placed directly in front of the guest after the last course. Napkins. — Always place napkins to the left of the cover, with the loose edges parallel to the forks and to the edge of the table, or fold in thirds and lay on the service-plate. The lower edge should be in exact lines with the lower tips of the handles of the silver on both sides of the plate.

Whereas tion, new 'Making Yourself Scarce' VERY few girls stop to realize the fact that it pays to make oneself scarce at times. Most men are conceived enough to believe honestly that their sweet-hearts can't live without them. They also try to make themselves believe that no woman means anything much in their lives. The most certain way to awaken them is to leave them alone. Give them a chance to phone; let them do the writing. A man likes to feel free to pursue and how in the name of Peter can he if the girl friend is hanging on to his coat-tail all the time? Most men are, not satisfied with what they have, but are continually believing all that gitters in the distance is gold. The very fact that they have something seems to make its value Slavery Days Phrase Is Applicable to School Days WHEN the writer was a boy his mother had the vicious habit of standing in the doorway of the home and, as he started on his way to school the first day after mid-summer vacation, waving her hand, saying at the same time: "Goodbye, Sonnie, your free-papers are burnt." The phrase had come down to his mother's generation from the days of slavery. It was the custom those days when a slave had been made free by his master, and had afterwards mishaved himself, to take him back into slavery by the simple device of burning his "free-papers" or his certificate of manumission. So his mother, believing, with undoubted justification, that the writer easily compared schooling with slavery, developed the fatal habit of taking the joy out of his life by uttering those dedeening words. It is true that the boy goes back to what to him in 90 cases out of 100 means slavery. There are few children who love to return to school after a long vacation. Children are the same the world over. During the coming week the 6,000 children in Harlem of school age will have bagged what to them will be the march back into slavery—the return to the school-houses and the tedium of learning. The slavery, of attending school, teaching, and of sending children to school is a new sort to the children, parents and teachers of Harlem. The responsibility which free schooling and compulsory education impose upon the Harlem of today is vaster and more important than any which has fallen to the lot of any black community in the world. Here in Harlem, where most parents must go out to earn the wherewithal—and parents in this case mean mothers in nine cases out of ten—the difficulty of giving to the school problems of the child the kind of attention which it merits is doubly evident. Some of the problems, for instance, are those involving proper co-operation between parents and the school officials; the supervision and encouragement of the child when it is outside of the school influence and directly under the eye of the parents; the mother's duty of imparting to the child respect for authority, thereby keeping ever before the child the duty of following closely the instruction which the school teacher would impart. It is important, also, that the parent encourage cleanliness and neatness of person in the child, impressing it with the importance of punctuality and quick response. The parents should realize that, from the standpoint of the teacher, there is nothing so devastating as the appearance of a filthy child in a classroom. There can be no excuse for sending a child to the school teacher with torn and soiled clothing; soap, a little patience and a riddle will keep clothing clean, without holes and with buttons in their places. It is true that the child usually has no regard for the clothing it wears and will soil it and tear it soon after it has been placed upon its back; but this is no excuse for permitting the clothes of the child to hang in rags. There are parents who will say: "What is the use of mending Johnne's things, he will tear them soon again." Sure sign of the lack of interest in the child on the part of the par- decrease. Today, the idea seems to be current that women must do the grabbing, chasing and holding. Whereas this is a mistaken notion, nevertheless we must give the devil his due by admitting a girl must take certain steps forward; she cannot sit by the window and pine for the passing swain and expect him to be smitten by the sight of her; nor is she likely to be very successful if she tosses down her dainty little glove, as ladies of yore did, with the hopes of his returning it. Nine chances out of ten he won't even notice it, and if he should, he'll think someone has got it in for him and wants to take spite by throwing things. In all ages past women have found that they must be tacful and this age is not an exception. Competition is keen and a girl cannot hide and expect Mr. Right to discover her miraculously. She must take an interest in activities and meet people. "She has met 'him,' she must remember that he'll appreciate much more if she doesn't get it. She doesn't get it, she gets a kick out of worrying. A. B. "So Long, Sonnie, Your Free Papers Are Burnt" MAGAZINE PAGE By EDGAR M. GREY ents; it is a sign that the mother is trailing her boy to be slovenly and careless when he shall have grown to manhood. The habits, good and bad, which are formed during childhood remain with the child, and many of the failures in life may be traced directly to childhood. The health of the child may be supervised by the school authorities; but it may be protected only by the parents. A sickly child is a sickly man and woman. For the Latin proverb, "A Edgar M. Grey sound mind in a sound body," still holds good with the child. The parents should insist, even where there are careless school teachers, that the child be examined by the school physicians monthly, as is required by the school regulations. Healthful sports should be encouraged for the child, and its companions should be, where it is possible, selected. Care should be taken in the home that loose and vile practices by the parents are not observed by the child. The teeth, eyes and skin of the child should receive the attention of the parents, and the home work prescribed by the school for the child should be supervised by the parents. The teachers are always glad to consult the parents upon any and all problems arising in the child, and parents should make it their duty to attend the joint parents' and teachers' meetings which have lately become a part of the general plan of education in Harlem. Every effort should be made on the part of those parents who are indigent to send the child to the high schools, and when it is impossible to send the child to the high schools, parents should see to it that the child is made to attend the night high schools. There is no greater disadvantage from which a boy can suffer than that of being denied the chance of a high-school education; for every step which he may desire to make, he will be obliged to send the fact of whether he has attended an institution of secondary education. The question of whether the boy should attend a vocational high school or one of academic preparation usually confronts the parents at this stage. It is important that they should realize that it is just as important that a boy be taught a trade as his ability to work as a doctor or a lawyer. The Negro parent takes the attitude, whenever a public-school teacher advises the parent to send the boy or girl to a vocational high school, that the teacher is prejudiced and does not desire to see Negro children receive the higher education. This is positively a superstition. In the first place, since nature has shared out its resources, the Negro child not only a children have brains which will stand the higher education. The mentality of many children, black and white, is inferior; they cannot be instructed in the branches of higher learning. For this sort of child a trade would prove more advantageous than a futile attempt to over a girl, wondering where she is and what she is doing. Just try "making yourself scarce" a little more often with the B.F. and see if he doesn't act much sweeter when he sees you next. Dear Ann: Recently you helped a girl friend of mine and now I'm coming to you with my problem. I am 17. Not long ago I met a man of 30, who works in the same building as I do. We were not introduced to each other, but got to speaking because we saw one another four or five times a day. He wants to keep company with me, but I don't know anything about him. He told me not to write at his home address, as his landlady, who is about 50 years old, is very jealous of him. He wants me to send his mail to his friend's home. Don't you think this sounds fishy? He awears that he doesn't care for his landlady, but looks upon her as a mother. He acts as though he really loves me and when I refuse to go Writer Discusses the Problems Parents Must Face instruct it in the higher learning, which would prove a failure leaving the child to grow up without the so-called higher learning or any sort of trade; leaving him, then, to scuffle along in life, catching here and there for a means of making a living. Secondly, if it were assumed that all children were endowed with the faculty for receiving the higher training, it would even then be advisable that some of them receive instruction in the trades, for the reason that, because of the peculiar arrangement which prevail in the social and economic life of the Negro child in the United States, and in the whole world, only limited number of those who possess the higher learning may be in a position to exploit or use it for their support. Certainly, the teacher who has had contact with a child for the many years of its common-school training is in a better position than parents to know the sort of secondary or high-school training which its mind should be exposed to. The advice of the teacher ought, therefore, to be followed in the selection of the kind of school the child should attend. The high-school work of the child is of vastly greater importance than is its public-school work—for the reason that this constitutes the crucial period of his education; this is the fork in the road. Parents should seek the advice and recommendation of friends and relations who have attended high school from have attended high school. The reason for this is that in many cases the child does not understand and seldom knows what kind of subjects should mainly be selected in the high-school course. For instance, there are Negro boys and girls abroad in the great length and breadth of the United States today who are unable to follow up their education for the reason that the subjects which they studied while at the high school do not represent credits in the courses which they would take in the colleges for a degree. The essential character of the department of the Negro high-school child cannot be too strongly stressed; these are the children who come in contact with the class of whites who are themselves to constitute the ruling and governing classes among white Americans, the majority. It is important that our boys and girls who come in contact with them in the high schools should be well behaved, hence the need for the ever-watchful eye of the parent of the high-school boy and girl. To the Negro college students who have come to the great City of New York seeking recreation and the opportunity to earn college tuition during the summer vacation period, the duty of leaving the bright lights of Harlem and its night life and streets may be to save the least, an infirm child, from the danger they realize that Harlem has nothing to offer them which might properly take the place of a college education and a preparation for life. They should say goodbye to the city and to their many acquaintances and run off to the campuses and to the class-work of their respective colleges. For they are truly the fighters of the future; they are the soldiers who shall wrest the power from the hands of those who have given up their world deny it to the black race. To them also the salutation holds: "Good bye, sonnie, your free-papers are burnt." out with him I know he feels hurt about it. What is your opinion, Eggypsy Ann? Thanking you very much, I am, Dear Girl, WORRIED. Dear Little Girl: I should say it does sound "fishy." First of all, he's too old for you. A man of 30 is no companion for a girl of 17. It seems clear that he's having a little affair with his landlady. He either likes her or he is under obligation to her. The fact that she is 50, if she is a bar or barber from being the case, if this weren't the case, could find someone to live with him? Heaven knows, he may be married for all we know. Leave him flat and find someone your own is equal to the advice of EGYPSY ANN. Famous Nassau Editor Visits U. S.

Brooklyn Bishop to Demand Retraction From Local Paper Brooklyn Bishop to Demand Retraction From Local Paper Barrow, Whose Speech at Pan-African Congress Created a Furore, Says He Is Not in the United States on Suffrance The activities of Bishop Reginald G. Barrow, of Christ Church Cathedral, Brooklyn, continue to attract the attention of Negroes all over this country. The activities of the Bishop reach back to the early days of the purchase of the Danish West Indies by the United States Government. Bishop Barrow, native of Barbadoes, B.W. L., brilliant theological student and stalwart divine of the Episcopal Church in St. Croix, Virgin Islands, of the U. S. A., apparently became persona non grata with the "powers that he" when he withdrew from the Episcopal Church and joined the African Methodist Episcopal Church in the same Island. Aside from his ministerial duties, he also became interested in the labor situation, which had previously induced even natives of the Virgin Islands to seek amelioration of the conditions from the Government at Washington, D. C. Bishop Barrow had the support of the best minds among the Negroes and certain whites in the islands. The United States Government, practically new in the administration of affairs in their colonial possessions, did not look with favor upon the activities of the young minister. To find Negroes questioning the government about their rights of procedure in dealing with a situation which had at one time become very tense was a shock to the Naval authorities. Threats of being placed in jail and running true to the form of forebears who had once voiced protest under the unfair rule of their European overlords. Bishop Barrow continued his activities in the islands of St. Croix. His friends asserted that when the time came the authorities in the islands insisted upon his deportation, and on September 15, 1922 he was forced to leave the islands his destination as decreed by the United States Government being the British West Indies. Shortly after Bishop Barrow came to the United States and continued his work in the African Methodist Episcopal Church until June. 1925, when he came to Brooklyn at the urgent request of the Christ Church congregation, African Orthodox Church. Pressure was brought to bear from the Virgin Islands and deportation proceedings were instituted looking towards driving the militant young preacher from this country. The matter was taken through the courts and successfully fought by Bishop Barrow and his friends. On March 11, 1927, a decision was handed down by Judge Knox of the Federal Court sustaining a writ of habeas corpus taken out by his attorneys. Messrs. Shorr, Brodsky and King of Union Square. This was against a final order of deportation which had been entered against Bishop Barrow. The following correspondence apparently bears out the claim made by Bishop Barrows that he is not in this country "on suffurance" as claimed by a writer in a local paper last week: Bishop R. G. Barrow, 121 Lefferts place, Brooklyn, New York. My dear Blahop: I enclose herewith a copy of a letter addressed to the Commis- sioner of Immigration, Ellis Island, New York Harbor, which officially closes your case.

Read and approved by Mr. Craw- and signed by Mr. Manley. Read and signed by Mr. Tuttle. Apparring before the Pan-African Congress at its sessions in New York City a few weeks ago, Bishop Barrow, it would seem, aroused the ire of some of his brother natives of Barbadoes when he proved that he had accepted the principles of American citizenship in holding his first naturalization papers by asserting that there were many things his Island home could accept from this country which would tend to help economic progress which natives of many of the islands are forced to seek in the Canal Zone, Santa Domingo, Porto Rico, and other places. Bishop Barrow asserts that in the face of the courts of the United States upholding him in his contentions, he feels that the unwelcomed propaganda by certain of his enemies should be stopped. Through the attorneys fully conversant with his case, he says, he is demanding retraction of an article appearing in a local paper last week, asserting that he is in this country on suffrage. Many Out to Community League Meeting A number of men and women prominent in the social, civic, fraternal and political life of the city attended the meeting of the Non-Partisan Community League of the Eleventh Assembly District, which was held at 352 Greene avenue on Sept. 9.

Local Minister to Meet Kern in Segregation Issue The segregation issue at Seaside, in the Rockaway Beach section, is still under discussion as was developed by a meeting of the white "Residents of Seaside" which was held at Francine's Club, on the boardwalk, Beach 103d street, Rockaway Beach, to effect a permanent organization for solving the situation. The audience of several hundred was called to order by Donald Gleason, chairman, who introduced the principal speaker of the evening, Dr. John Hewins Kern, Dr. Kern announced that he had been in communication with Dr. T. S. Harten, pastor of the Holy Trinity Baptist Church, who signified its intention of co-operating with him in effecting an amicable settlement of the matters in dispute. Dr. Kern stated that Dr. Harten would attend a meeting to be held, in all probability, this week. At this time the question of segregation will be discussed. James J. Sullivan, white, owner of a hotel on Beach 103d street, and others emphasized the need for immediate action. As summer draws to a close it is highly probable that the whole thing will die a natural death unless agitators among the white and colored people keep at it, was the opinion expressed by one white man who did not want his name used.

This report is the most detailed and conclusive one yet seen on the Harlem child and it has long been needed. Wednesday. September 14. 1927 Another Puncture! EVER SINCE the ink was dry on Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation the critics of the Negro have been busy trying to prove his inherent and eternal inferiority. First, they said that his mind was below the human level, and the Negro replied by graduating with honors from the leading universities of America and Europe. They called him immoral, but their own history and literature proved that in immorality he was an amateur compared with other races. They called him lazy, but their own phrase, "work like a nigger," belied them. They called him cowardly, but his military record made the charge absurd. They called him shiftless and improvident, but Negro business, though not what it should be, is growing by leaps.

They called him shiftless and improvident, but Negro business, though not what it should be, is growing by leaps. IT STATES that the rate of delinquency among Harlem Negro children has increased while that of white children has diminished; that on the basis of population it is much higher than that of white children; that the chief offense of Negro children is disorderly conduct, whereas among the white children it is stealing. It gives as the chief causes of Negro children's delinquency the lack of opportunities for supervised recreation, lack of parental control where mothers work outside the home, and retardation in school that results in truancy. The report offers many constructive measures to counteract the disorganization of family life which is brought about by overcrowded homes. ONE of their time-honored arguments has been the high rate of Negro mortality, which their medical scientists have offered to the world as conclusive proof of the Negro's physical inferiority. to other races. Now the Negroes have developed some scientists of their own and that belief is being punctured. Dr. Algernon B. Jackson, director of the Department of Public Health, Howard University, has this to say: TO TEACHERS, truant and probation officers, and all whose business takes them among Harlem children the committee's report is all too true. In the past ten years the population of Harlem has increased 400 per cent, with a staggering but natural rise of rents, to meet which the families have to fill their homes with lodgers and send the mothers out to work. And the children suffer. The citizens and city authorifies should do all they can to apply the remedies offered by the Joint Committee. "Conservative students of public health conditions in America are not alarmed by the present mortality rate among colored people. Strictly speaking, health cannot be considered in terms of race, but rather in terms of economics, environment and education. "Scientists today are generally agreed that there is no such thing as true racial immunity or racial susceptibility to disease, except in a relative sense." EVEN THEN, though conditions would be greatly bettered, the real root of the evil would be untouched. No remedy is as good as a preventive. The children run wild because the mothers are away at work. The mothers are at work because expenses are high and the father alone cannot meet them. He cannot meet them because he is denied the same chance at a living wage that is given his white brother. DR. JACKSON'S statement is corroborated by the figures of Dr. Louis I. Dublin, statistician for the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, which has more than two million colored people on its books. Dr. Dublin, in his article in The American Mercury for September, says that Negro mortality would be greatly better root of the evil woe ed. No remedy is preventive. The ch because the mother work. The mother because expenses a father alone cannot cannot meet them denied the same ch DR. JACKSON'S statement is corroborated by the figures of Dr. Louis I. Dublin, statistician for the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, which has more than two million colored people on its books. Dr. Dublin, in his article in The American Mercury for September, says that Negro mortality has so decreased that the life expectation of Negro males at the age of fifty is only one year less than that of whites of the same age. In Reconstruction days, he says, the Negro death rate was thirty-five or forty to the thousand; today it is seventeen to the thousand, about the same as that of most European countries before the World War. A NEGRO convict in a Florida road camp was too ill to work and was put in a "sweat box" for it. He died there. A coroner's jury said he had died from natural causes. Come on, all you people who were so eager for justice to Sacco and Vanzetti. ALL RACES, given equally favorable conditions, will have about the same mortality rate. But if any one race is constantly persecuted, forced to live under bad sanitary conditions, denied hygienic and other education, refused an equal chance to make a good living,compressed by adverse legis ACCORDING to an article in The New York Times, the voters in Tennessee think that Governor Smith, if nominated by the Democrats for the Presidency, might sweep the South. It is equally true that next month "might" be Octo- The Pan-African Congress and W. E. B. DuBois were merely seeking a talking point, without any serious meaning or purpose. One may search the whole output of most of the American attendees, their writings spoken and ad dressed, without suspecting that they processed the rumored in terrest in the land of their fere hearts. But we hope that their found zeal will be adding to our sold fairly of the F. DuBoiq that he contains a contrastive of qualities. Like Walt Whitman, he is large; he contains multitudes. It is unusual to find an ardent advocate of full manhood rights in the United States who, at the same time, casts his eyes towards Africa. The French Negroes, who are treated as 100 per cent Frenchmen, have no longing for their ancestral home beyond the seas. There were no representatives from South America, and none from the dominant thought of Haytil. I learn that the Haytian government interposed obstacles in the way of any Haytian attending the conference. Even the Liberian government, I am advised, was wary. The three Negro governments of the world—Haytil, Liberia and Abbysinila—stood officially aloof. The American patriot who feels in his soul that 100 per cent American citizenship is his rightful due, and shortly to be secured; rarely expresses any interest in Africa, except in a detached, philanthropic way. Frederick Douglass used to say "I have none of the banana in me." The N. A. A. C. P. sent out a full account of this conference in its weekly release. The account was much more copious than it is accustomed to report any other Negro gathering, except its own annual meeting, although I am persuaded that the cause espoused makes a faint appeal to the great body of its constituents. It is a little difficult to be patriotic for two continents at the same time. Equal rights in America absorb most of the ardor of its fervid advocates. Zeal for Africa has usually been in reverse ratio to the hopelessness of attaining equality in America. It was on this basis that Liberia was founded and fostered.

THE POTRIF DAN VIECAN Congress has been held. Delegates, rather spee-men Negro participants, were gathered from different parts of the world where peoples of African blood reside. They have sent their views and passed resolutions, and adjourned, as many a convention has done before. Let no one say that such meetings accomplish no good purpose. Every time people come together to compare and exchange experiences there results some residuum of good, albeit we may not observe the visible form and tangible effect thereof. --- The resolutions of the Pan-African Congress are most praiseworthy in their tone and temper and sweep of purpose. They were written in Dr. DuBois' best strain; although the conference has not the slightest power to put a single suggestion of these resolutions into practical effect, nevertheless, they indicate a deep-seated interest in the continent of our foremothers. I have followed somewhat closely the Negro press for the past weeks since the close of the conference. The general attitude has been in the main one of indifference. Some have been even critical to a degree verging on to unkindness, if not of hostility. I have not anywhere found any spontaneous interest in the real object of the conference. The reports have been scanty, and in no wise comparable to the universal interest such a movement might be considered calculated to provoke throughout Afro-Americandom. As a matter of fact, there is no real vital interest in Africa on part of the Negro intelligensia. I can count on the fingers of my left hand the intelligensia of my acquaintance who have any vital concern about the continent of Africa; nor would I have to use them all in the reckoning. I have heard of more than one Bishop who was assigned to work in Africa as an exigency of conferential assignment who went to his charge regretfully and returned home gladly. The fact is there is little interest among educated Afro-Americans in the dark continent. When I first entered Howard University as a student, we used to operate a missionary society once a month which stimulated the spirit of service to the foreign field. But to-day service to Africa is rarely mentioned and often aniggered at when mentioned. Our Professor Hansberry is conducting courses in African history and is thus reviving something of the former zeal for African knowledge. If not for missionary devotion. It must be said for Dr. DuBois, that interest in the dark continent is no new thing with him. His interest was expressed before Garvey came to America. But the movement is all but wholly a one man undertaking. The others for the most part borrowed their zeal from him.

Moore, who has been on the firing line for so many years, fighting for the rights of the colored people, has been nominated for alderman. There is no question of his integrity, his race pride, his ability and experience in public affairs, thus qualifying him to make a high class alderman, and it will be a lasting disguce to the race if he is not elected. The majority of voters in his district are colored, and all they have to do is register to elect him. He is the type of man of whom the race may be proud, because he has not only spent the better part of his life fighting for the race, but has reared and educated a large family, and is one of the men to whom we can point with pride, and, in my opinion, is the logical man to represent the race in the Board of Aldermen.

I very much doubt that the Jew would expire such seething for return to his mother Zion if his people were not persecuted beyond endurance by the nations of the earth among whom they return. The harvey Movement and the Pan-African Congress stand out as a comparison and a contrast. The Pan-African Congress is of Dullois a thing apart, the Harvey movement was its promoter whole existence. What the scholar handles with the little finger of his left hand, Harvey grasps with all of his might. What with Dullois is a pantheon, with Harvey is a passion. The one believes that the scattered sons of the motherland ought to show some interest in the dark continent as a philanthropic duty; the other believes that the repatriation of Africa is the only salvation of the race. The output of the Pan-African Congress is but an intellectual expression of principles; the resolution of the Garvey movement was the emotional expression of an immediate program. DuBois has chosen the easier part. It is always easier to set forth principles than to formulate a program. When the Pan-African reaches the point of translating its principles into a workable program, it will begin to appreciate the failure of the Garvey movement. The leaders of these two movements hate each other with mutual motives which the race in the future will repudiate. They are both aiming after an objective which neither of them knows how to accomplish. The one despises the other because he does not see it his way. Garvey has gathered about him the rank and file who follow him as the leader, as one who has shown them the new way. DuBois has corralled a few of the half hearted intelligence, who follow him as Peter did the Saviour—afar off. Either of these men would rather see Africa lost than redeemed by the other. And yet neither has any monopoly on African redemption, nor, exclusive right of trying an experiment. DuBois would not let the Pan-African Congress ask for a pardon of Garvey from the Atlanta Penitentiary: Garvey would hardly accept a pardon procured through his interest. The Negro's hostility against the Negro is deep and bitter. The race, however, cannot share in these personal hostilities. The respective movements must be judged on their merits. They are both grooming after the right way, if it might be found. Both may fail as many a well intended movement has failed before. But the pathway to success is strewn with failure. Each failure is made the incentive for a fresh start. No one can say that I am the truth, the light, the way—not even DuBols. And yet we honor him for putting in operation this worthy attempt looking to the redemption of Africa. For after all has been said and done the Negro people, everywhere, feel down in their-heart of hearts that Africa is their racial home. Some may try to suppress this feeling; some may CHARLES WADDLE, CHESSNELL, author, was born in Cleveland, Ohio, June 20, 1824. At the age of 14 he began to teach in the public schools of North Carolina. At the age of 47 he became principal of the State Normal School of Payetteville. In 1847 he left the south to do newspaper work in New York City, where he remained for a short time until he was called to the late in 1872. Chessnut is considered to be among the defiant story-tellers of the Negro. Home one has called him "second to the late Paul Laurence Dunbar." Chessnut's writing is simple, varied and interesting. In 1887 he contributed "The Conjure Woman" to the Atlantic Monthly. Since then he has been a contributor to various periodicals. Of late days, however, he has written very little. But what is his name already linked his name to the annals of great Negro literature. A long acquaintance with Southern problems and the Negro proved valuable to Chessnut. The life of the Negro in various Southern States gave color to Chessnut which he has artistically blended with the color of his fertile imagination. It is always a pleasure to read Chessnut. And what we lose in dear its existence. But a closer searching would be disclosed in the deeper recesses of the soul. There are few if any deep thiskers of any race who believe that the scattered fragments of the Negro race will find permanent satisfaction and full equality in the lands of their sojourn upon the face of the earth. The far call of Africa is the call of the race. The deep death unto the deep. It may not always be a clear clarion call, but nevertheless, it sounds and resounds "far, far away, like bells at evening pealing."

Inasmuch as the Provincetown group does not give Monday night performances, the New York cast will present "In Abraham's Bosom" for one showing, on Sept. 26 at Providence, R. I., prior to beginning the regular road engagements. Frank Wilson and Rose McClendon of the present cast will not be able to go on tour, as they are to appear in "Porgy," opening at the Guild Theatre on Oct. 3. Some of those taking part as extras in the Theatre Guild's production of "Porgy" are: Miss Dorothy West, Richard Bruce, Miss Dorothy Embry, Wallace Thurman, E. Glover Perry, and Mrs. Frank Wilson. The opening date of this play is October 3. To Exhibit African Canoe WASHINGTON—An exhibit calculated to interest Americans.

Dear Sir: In one of your issues of July there appeared a letter from Mr. Arthur Schomburg regarding my article on Jose Maria Y Campu- zano Heredia. . . A protracted absence from America caused my delay in answering Mr. Schomburg's letter. Most of my material regarding Heredia was procured in Havana, in the summer of 1920, when I returned to that island. It was there, too, that I met the librarian of the Maceo and the Havana public libraries. And to these gentlemen I am grateful for the facts regarding Heredia, the great singer of Niagara, Captain Delaney, of the British Army, who happened to be in Havana at the time of Heredia's troubles, calls him "a highly educated Cuban with a mixture of Negro and Spanish blood and a poet of considerable ability. " From what I have been able to garner through the cooperation of the librarians and writers of Havana, they have classed Heredia in the category of "a singer of color." And Lopez, the celebrated critic, calls him "an extract of the white and black race. with more white than black blood in him. but making him a true Moreno." Mr. Schomburg has probably forgotten that in 1823 Heredia was arrested on a charge of conspiracy against the Spanish Government, and was sentenced to banishment for life. He took refuge in New York, where he published in 1825 a volume of his poems. Later in the same year he left for Mexico, where he became a magistrate. . . Has Mr. Schomburg forgotten this little history of the poet? I do not intend to "paint a white writer black," as Mr. Schomburg has intimated in his letter regarding Heredia. The source of my information came from Heredia's own people, and men who have made themselves famous in the literary world. Captain Delaney, whose travels in Cuba and whose books on that island made him famous, lived with Heredia and his family for over six months. My purpose in presenting these weekly articles is not to "paint white men black," but to give the readers of The Amsterdam News the most authentic and comprehensive history of Negro literature in various parts of the world. And I do not think that because Calcagno failed to mention Heredia "as a Moreno or a writer of color" that I should abide by his sole authority. Calcagno too can be wrong, for there is a great deal of fallibility in the testimony of man. (Signed) THOMAS L. G. OXLEV. September 7, 1927.
