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.

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.
Liberty Hall Goes Under Hammer Today
Once more the Garvey "Cradle of Liberty" goes under the hammer at public auction, and today may see the last of Liberty Hall in West 138th street, between Lenox and Seventh avenues, as Joseph P. Day auctions it off to the highest bidder.
For ten years Liberty Hall has been the home of The Universal Negro Improvement Association. It is being sold today at 56 Vesey street to satisfy a judgment of foreclosure brought by the Real Estate Holding Corporation and Charles Schimmer against the U. N. I. A. and others.
According to E. B. Knox, personal representative of Marcus Carvey and president of the Chicago division of the U. N. I. A., an arrangement has been made that is agreeable to all parties. The Garvey "Cradle of Liberty" will be sold today, Mr. Knox said, but the use of it for the organization will be continued.

FINAL RITES FOR LIEUT. THOMPSON, NOTED BANDMASTER
Musician Was Born in Sierra Leone, West Africa; Received Training in England; Led Band of First West Indian Regiment
Military funeral services over the remains of Lieutenant E. E. Thompson, former bandmaster of the 367th Infantry Band, who died in Paris, were held at 2:00 p.m. last Wednesday at Duncan's Funeral Parlor and St. Mark's M. E. Church, 138th street and St. Nicholas avenue. The Rev. John W. Robinson officiated. The interment was at Woodlawn, Charles Thompson, 157 West 138th street, brother of the deceased, is the only living relative.
The body was surmounted on a horse-drawn military funeral caisson in charge of Sergeants Allen, Poters, McMullin and Currin of the 105th Light Infantry, and surrounded by a guard of twenty men from the 369th Regiment under the command of First Sergeant Frank E. Wallace. The trumpeters were Gross and Dickerson of the same company, who blew taps while all stood at attention. Arthur "Strut" Payne sang a bass solo.
Standing guard at the bler were Captain Rufus Atkins and Lieutenants Jacob Porter, Herbert Wilks and Ralph Mizelle. The band from the New Amsterdam Musical Association, under the leadership of Lieut. Fred W. Simpson, accompanied the funeral procession. When the cortege reached 143d street and Seventh avenue the body was transferred from the military caisson to the Duncan hearse, and the funeral cars carrying the mourners and a dozen soldiers proceeded to the cemetery.

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.

HARLEM "MAYOR" FAILS TO APPEAR ON SUMMONS
Close Friends Declare He Left City to Raise $200 Mrs. Ruth Morgan Alleges He Withheld Unlawfully
Prof. S. R. 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.

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.
Janitor Saves 80 Single- Handed in Hotel Fire
---
BOSTON, Sept. 12.—Verde Hardin, janitor, was the hero in the great fire which swept through the exclusive Wadsworth Chambers at 52 Brattle street, Cambridge, early Friday morning. Mrs. Laurie L. Burgess, white, who occupied a suite of rooms on the sixth floor, was the heroine of the blaze. Harding rescued eighty people single-handed from the fire when he on his elevator through smoke and flames, carrying load after load of terrified lodgers to safety, until that vehicle caught fire.
One fireman, who was overcome while working on the sixth floor, was saved by comrades after he had being helplessly across a window still unconscious from inhaling smoke. Mrs. Burgess discovered the fire, aroused the jantor and others in the building, and then, not contented, waited until the firemen arrived. On summons of Mrs. Burgess, Harding came with extinguisher, but could not enter because of terrific heat and smoke. Meanwhile, he shouted to the frightened tenants to get into the elevator. He took them all down until he was forced to abandon the elevator when it caught fire. However, everybody was safe.

Carload of Liquor
Came in as Hay
BOSTON, Sept. 12.—A freight car load of contraband liquor in the disguised form of hay was seized by Patrolman Haddock and Sergt. Arthur Bliss in the freight yards at Needham on Saturday. The car arrived at Needham Heights from Rutland, Vt., consigned to J. H. Hinsdale and Son. No such firm is known in Needham. A party with three trucks was waiting for it. One, who gave his name as J. B. Harris, paid the freight and asked to have the car put on a siding to unload the hay. Something looked "fishy" about the way the men acted. Officers grew suspicious, and an investigation revealed that the hay was only a blind and that the car was loaded with Canadian ales, wines and liquors.
Those arrested gave names as Harry Meltzer, 491 Beach street, Revere, and Roderick D. MacLean, 251 Webster street, Newton; Harry Lewis and Harry Clayman, 14 Ivy street, Boston; Arthur Rowe, 36 Dickson street, Somerville, and Frank Smith of Bay street, Nantaskett.
B.S.C.P. 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.
A traffic violation in Strafford, Conn., proved a Nemesis for Charles Sullivan, 33, 197 West 134th street; Clifford Cody, 25, 267 West 144th street, and Kennard Johnson, 24, 108 West 141st street, who are charged with stealing a $1,000 Nash motor car from the garage of Moses J. Jones, 2501 Amsterdam avenue, on August 26. The car belonged to Florence James, 39, white, 500 West 196th street. The trio was arraigned in Heights Court last week before Magistrate Albert Vitale, who held them in $2,000 ball each to await the action of the Grand Jury.
The Strafford police arrested them when they failed to produce a license for the car they were driving. It is said. New York police were notified and the description of the car fitted that of the one which had been stolen from Mrs. James. Detective Reardon of the Automobile Squad caught a train to Strafford immediately and brought the men here for trial. They all pleaded not guilty to the charge of larceny.
Tennessee Woman Freed of Gun Charge
Further investigation reveals that Julia Booker, 45, 162 East 103d street, is a colored woman and not a white woman, as, reported last week in the story, concerning her arrest immediately after her arrival here from Tennessee, when a revolver was found in her trunk by Detective Bransfield when a taxi driver brought it to the West 135th street police station after he had failed to find the woman at home, following his instructions to deliver her trunk from the Pennsylvania Station.
Mrs. Booker was arraigned in Heights Court again Friday before Magistrate Vitale, to whom she explained her ignorance of the law
incorring the possession of a revolver, is she had found it. O. K. to carry a gun in Tennessee without license. Mrs. Booker was discharged and the police kept the gun.

Teach Third and Fouth Year Subjects 4 Sameeeee a pm In custody at 136th street and |during the leat twelve months. | Four Exec Howard Cradcate Appointed
The Evening High School Annex in the school build-
ing in West 140th stfect, between Lenox and Seventh ave-
ues, 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 Haw-
kins, 142 Morris avenue, who was in charge of registration,
“and if they had given us a little more time we would
doubtless hiave reached our quota. The great majority of
the students who had registered were new and there iwere
about 200 old students who were going to register. Mon-
day night’ was our largest registration night and the stu-
dents who registered-that night were not counted toward our
Guets:
, Only two students of the entire
attendance at the Evening High
School Annex were white. There
‘Was every indication that the reg.
istration of Negro students this
year would exceed that of last
term, when the attendance drop.
Ded far below the quota; yet the
#chool remained open.”
Albert B. E. Jenkins, accountant
142 Went 139th street, 2 member
‘of an impromptu committee form
ed to conduct an informal investl-
Fation, safd: “Another cause for
the diMeuity of reaching our quote
fs that the Evening High Schoo!
Annex did not teach third and
fourth rear pudjects. If that were
done, the registration of students
wonld far exceed the school’s ca.
Pacity.”
Principal Smerling of the Even-
ing High School Annex explained
that {t would be unfatr to continue
with a low attendance at that
achool and the one in 116th street
between Lenox and Fifth avenues,
60 he advised the students to at-
tend the 116th street butlding,
which is said to be very poorly
equipped. «

‘Waters, who was 51 years old,
ranked a6 sachem of the dwindled
nation of the Montauk, amounting
uow tow few scattered individuals
of mixed blood in Long Island and
‘a few more, perhaps of purer stock,
with the remnant of the tock-

quirk of time and fate Waters also
had been chosen sachem of the
residue of the warlike conquerors
of his people, the Narragansetts, 1
few of whom stfil survive on Long

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

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-

lready to spiritual meetings held in their auditorium. 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.

LINIT, when added to the bath, produces a creamy "feel" to the water which makes it less irritating in cases of certain skin diseases.
The effect of LINIT is immediate—two or more handfuls in the bath, dissolving instantly—and then instead of waiting weeks and weeks for some sign of improvement, you step out of your bath and immediately you sense a creamy softness in your skin.

Beauty Hints BY MINA TEMPLE
Natural Rouge for Checks
By NINA TEMPLE.
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. This is a secret well known to most actresses.

MUNN-BROADCASTS ON GODFREY
ONTE 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 ex-
tremely confident of beating Godfrey.
“ wanted: Godfrey,” said Monte, “and I made Dan
Hickey get the match. Perhaps old Dan fhought I was bit-
ing off more than I could chew, but I wanted Godfrey and
1 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 cham-
pionship 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 Ma-
loney in Philadelphia and right then and there I made up
my mind that Godirey is the man to meet. I believe God-
frey is the strongest contender for heavyweight honors, bet-
ter than any in what might be called the first flight. And
1 believe the Maloney battle proved that, If I can knock
aim out, and I’m sure I can, then I'l be in the spotlight.”
Munn has been training kard for this battle. Her always
‘is m great physical condition and seldom needs much work.
Put 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 Lit-
tle Boy Blue vs. Anderson Buster Martin; Murray Gitlitz
vs. Larry Bilello; Jake \Varren 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

The hard hitting of George
Seales, Alonzo Montalvo and Char-
lio Mason gave the Lincoln Glants
three more victories over the past
week-end, Saturday, with Montal-
vo pitching. the Lincolna shut out
the Farmers by a score of 4-0, and
Sunday they defeated the Philadel-
rhia Hebrews, 15-13, and the Bronx
Glants, 6-2.
The pitching of Montalvo on Sat-
urday and Rector against the
Bronx Glants were big factors fn
these eames. Montalvo allowed
bat two hits, while Rector let the
tival Glants down with six seatter-
ed hineles,

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

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.

Sandy Burns at the Lafayette Next Week
Sandy Burns will be featured in the musical revue which comes to the Lafayette next Monday. Billy Higgins, whose splendid work at the Lafayette last week gained him thousands of new admirers, will co-star with Sandy.
"Ginger Snaps of 1922" is the very appropriate title of the revue which is sponsored by Julius Suarez, prominent night club owner in Atlantic City. Lottie Gee, Mary Clemons, Ozie McPherson, Shakey Beasley, and other well-known entertainers are in the cast. A feature of the show will be Claude Hopkins' band—the same one that played for Josephine Baker in Paris and that helped the "countess" to her spectacular success.
The photoplay feature for the first part of the week will be "The Hour of Reckoning." During the last part of the week Edith Roberts will be seen in her latest starring vehicle, "The Jazz Girl."
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.

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.

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. C. and Howard University. De Bidgell is a finished stenographer and bookkeeper.
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. Anderson will come before the amusement loving public within the next two weeks as director of activities at the Renaissance Casno. Professor Anderson is well known to all the people of Greater New York and should meet with success in the new venture. The casino, which is ideally located, will install two bands, offering continuous dancing with a bevy of hostesses ready to cater to the terpsichorean demands of those attending the affairs.

Moose Brooklyn
Convention Marred
= to File Appeal Pre-
vented Parade and Out-
side Display
Because the supposed appeal to
the injunction obtained apelnst the
imaprores., Benevolent, tective
Order of Moose oy the Loyal Order
of Moose, the white organization,
had never been filed, the sched:
uled fourth annual convention of
the order, heldSin Brooklyn Sep-
tember 6, 7 and S, was far from the
kind of convention which the mem-
bers of Cosmopolitan Lodge and
Bethaisda Chapter of Brooklyn had
been planning for several months.
When Counsellor Thomas 1...
Higgins, who was chairman of the
commitiee, Jearned that no appeal
had been filed, ft is said that he
was greatly surprised, as It was
commonly thought among the fra-
ternity that Attorney Pope Billups,
grand legal advisor of the Moose,
had long ago taken that step.
As a consequence, no parade
could be held. nor could any out-
side display be made during the
entire session. It was informally
Sgreed ‘to meet next year in. To-
jedo, Ohlo. The Labor Day night
reception at Arcadia Hall was well
attended, but the picnic that was
to have been held at Dexter Fark
last Wednesday was cancelled.
‘When tho legal tangle of the
Moose is finally settled James Gard-
ner of Toledo will guide the des.
Unies of the order in place of David
W_ MeDantels of this city, and Mrs.
Octavia Washington of Baltimore
will continue to head the female

The American Negro in Paris
Absence of Color
Prejudice, Yes,
But---
PARIS.
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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A Key to Culture By LEOLA LILLARD
THE arrangement of silver, china and glass must be carefully studied, in order that the design of the table top may not appear confused. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

"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

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."

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

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:

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.

Proctor's Points
Condensed report of Sunday sermon of the Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Procter, Bishop of Neglectedian Church, Brooklyn, N.Y. The reality is not newness but truestness.
2. The repudiation of the authority of Scripture wherein is breathed the measure of the truth. The violation of the Sabbath by making it a day of crew-creation in institution and individuals.
4. The neglect of the church, which instruction, discipline and service is fatal.
5. The breaking up of the home, the point of the world, is suicidal.
6. The tenency to play with marriage by trial marriages and easy divorce.
7. The modern tendencies in dress, speech and the dance are no friend.
8. The reliance on materialism is a sure forerunner of ruin as it has always been.
9. The variation of the self into the varied forms of self-expression now prevalent leaves no room for that the necessary supplements, the weakness of the self.
10. The cure of all this lie in the
cross, the heart of all excellence,
the cross, the heart of all excellence,

AFTER SEVEN MONTHS of intensive work the Joint Committee on Negro Child Study in New York City, with the co-operation of the National Urban League and the Women's City Club of New York, has issued its report on delinquent and neglected Negro children who have appeared before the Children's Court. This report is the most detailed and conclusive one yet seen on the Harlem child and it has long been needed.

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.
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:

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.

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 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.

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. Dr. Blydon used to wet, dry or the South. LETTE

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. Many of the members of the conference, I am persuad-

Praises Fred R. Moore
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir; Honorable Fred R. 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.

declare that the Negro had an reasonable hope for equality in the land of the Anglo-Mexican Marquesa she cared about his program upon the same foundation. 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."

"In Abraham's Bosom"
Going on Tour
Plans to send "In Abraham's Bosom" on tour at the end of its current revival engagement here are being made by the Provincetown Playhouse. The Pulitzer prize play will probably go to the Pacific Coast and may later be staged in London. 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. Britons and Belgians will be found at the forthcoming Colonial Exposition at Ostend. It is a genuine African canoe showing the marks of strenuous use. Upon the stern it bears the initials A. I. A., meaning African International Association. This is the canoe in which Henry M. Stanley descended and explored the Congo River, thus opening a way for the development of the African International Association and the creation of the Free State of Congo. It was in this canoe that Stanley performed a large part of that work, paddling through a thousand miles of unbroken wilderness.

Oxley Answers Arthur Schomburg
To the Editor of The Amsterdam
News.
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.
