DR. CHENEY CONVICTED HAMPTON INSTITUTE CLOSED BY STRIKE OF STUDENT BODY REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION Brooklyn and L. I. News DR. PERRY CHENEY CONVICTED OF 2ND DEGREE ASSAULT DR. PERRY CHENEY CONVICTED OF 2ND DEGREE ASSAULT Jury, While Finding Him Guilty in Lesser Degree Than Alleged in Indictment, Disregarded Self= Dr. Perry W. Cheney, 200 West 135th street, was convicted in the Court of General Sessions. Part 6, on Thursday of assault in the second degree before Judge William Allen and a jury, after a two-days' trial. The case was given to the jury shortly before three o'clock and the verdict was reached shortly before six. The charge was that on the 26th day of December, 1926, Dr. Cheney was engaged in a fist fight with Hyman Pincus at 145th street and eleventh avenue following a colision of their cars. John Torpy joined in fight with Pincus and was stabbed by Dr. Cheney in the region of his heart. He was taken to the Harlem Hospital, where he remained about thirteen days, the first two or three days of which he was not expected to live. He finally recovered, however, but claims his recovery is only partial. He gives his age as twenty-three years. Dr. Cheney pleaded self-defense and it is evident that the jury gave most careful consideration to his defense, for they were almost three hours determining that single point. After the jury was out for about two hours they came into court and asked to see Dr. Cheney, Hyman Pincus and John Tormy in order that they might judge their comparative sizes, and also requested further instructions as to the law of self-defense and after deliberating for about an hour thereafter declined to convict Dr. Cheney of assault in the first degree, but brought in a verdict of assault in the second degree. The point which the jury had to determine in the case was whether, in a street fight, Dr. Cheney could not otherwise have protected himself and defended himself from his opponents than by the use of a deadly weapon. Dr. Cheney will be arraigned for sentence tomorrow. The maximum penalty under the law is five years in prison or $1,000 fine. At the discretion of the court sentence may be suspended. He was defended by Cornellus W. McHughald. JUMPED BAIL 4 YEARS AGO; APPREHENDED Florence Quall, white, 3426 Atlantic avenue, Atlantic City, N.

On Sept. 2 Magistrate Douras sitting in Heights Court fixed ball of $1,000 upon Rucker to appear in Part VI of Special Sessions for trial on the medicine charge, and his conviction came Friday.

EXTRA REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION Trouble Precipitated When Lights Are Turned on at Movie Presentation in Ogden Hall, During Which Faculty Charges "Petting Parties" Were in Progress HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Oct. 17.—Following a strike of the majority of the student body and a series of events which started last Saturday night week, the world-famous institution located here closed its doors Thursday. Immediately thereafter the parents of the students were notified of the situation and the movement of 900 of the 1,200 students from Hampton Institute back home began. The situation is quite the most serious one with which the institution has ever been faced. Dr. James E. Gregg, the principal, announced his intention of reopening Hampton next Tuesday, at which time only students acceptable to him and the faculty will be readmitted. in an adjoining bedroom. When Dyer refused to sign the doctor's card as a receipt for the money, Carey is said to have raised his voice angrily, demanding to know if Dyer wanted to start an argument. Both turned to go and Dyer locked them in the room. At this point the detectives came out of the bedroom and asked the men why they were there. Boone said he was on a professional visit to treat a dog, and Carey declared he was accompanying the doctor. A search of Boone disclosed $120 on his person. When Attorney Low asked that bail he fixed Magistrate Dodge replied: "They were just as bad as the robber, for they were there to prevent conviction of a robber." Addressing Dyer, he continued: "You are entitled to the commendation of the public. Too many people are bought off." Boone has a criminal record in Boston. It is said. Both he and Carey pleaded not guilty. 20 PAGES—5 CENTS PER COPY STUDENTS FOR HOMES; ACTION SERIOUS When Lights Are Turned on at in Ogden Hall, During Which "Petting Parties" Were in TE, Oct. 17.—Following a strike of silent body and a series of events on night week, the world-famous in its doors Thursday.

The situation is quite which the institution has ever been the principal, announced his inten- next Tuesday, at which time only and the faculty will be readmitted. According to a statement sent to parents or guardians of the students on Friday that, since Saturday night, October 8, there has been so much "insubordination and disorder among the students as to make it necessary to close the Institute until further notice." The outbreak was precipitated by dissatisfaction with the lighting of Ogden Hall at a moving picture entertainment on Saturday evening, during which the faculty charges that "petting parties" were attracting more attention than the silver screen. On Sunday morning the college students in James Hall refused to admit the inspecting officers and the whole body of the students, aside from the choir, took no part in the singing at the morning and evening services. On Monday morning the serious consequences of this attitude and spirit were explained to the students by the principal, who also emphasized the importance of attendance, at classes and other scheduled work as an evidence of loyalty and co-operation. Nevertheless, a large number of young men, possibly four hundred, absented themselves from their classrooms and shops, some undoubtedly under intimidation by others. They had appointed a committee to present a statement of grievances to the Administrative Board; but this the board felt obliged to refuse to consider as long as the petitioners were "on strike." On Tuesday afternoon the strikers returned to their classes and on the same evening the board considered the committee's complaints. Some were not of great importance; others were distinctly noteworthy; several were impracticable; several were such as could not be adequately answered without investigation. The board willingly agreed to consider them carefully, it is reported and to confer again with the committee. On Thursday the Administrative Board voted to close the institution until next Tuesday.

Sorority College Courses Two scholarships of $150 each were presented Saturday night by the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority at a joint meeting of Tau Omega and Laudabla Chapters at the home of Mrs. Louise Jackson-Johnson, 103 West 141st street. The winners are Miss Ruth Ford, a June honor graduate of Hunter High School, and Miss Belle Tobias, of Wadleigh High School, also an honor graduate. Miss Ford is the 17-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Ford of 760 East 221st street. In September she entered Hunter College, where she plans to major in Latin and minor in Greek. "I, too, am majoring in Latin," said Miss Tobias, the 18-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Channing H. Tobias, 203 West 122d street.

These awards, based absolutely on scholarship averages maintained in high school and on character, are the second group awarded by the local chapters of the sorority. The other winners are: Miss Harriet Pickens, now a sophomore at Smith College, and Miss Elizabeth Belfe, a sophomore at Hunter College. Officers of the local chapters are: Tau Omega—Miss Florence Thomas, basileus; Miss Mabel Bickford, anti-basileus; Miss Isa M. Gittens, grammateus; Mrs. Ann Cox Greene, tamiouchos.

Women as Leaders Negroes' Hope, Says Dyett That women as leaders are the Negro's new political hope in Harlem was emphasized by Thomas B. Dyett, Assistant District Attorney, in an address on politics before the Intercollegiate Association last Sunday afternoon at the Urban League Building, 202 West 126th street. The importance of having a good economic backing when considering politics, as well as the allying ourselves as a group with the major party and the selection of a leadership not so much on the basis of political officeholders but upon the basis of principle, were the other main points of Mr. Dyett's talk. "The time is always ripe to elect colored people to political office," the attorney emphetically drove home to his hearers. "The time not ripe theory" is due to slave-psychology and we must rid ourselves of such ideas and face the facts. Politically speaking, we are never going to get anywhere other than what we take." Others on the program were Miss Arnetta Jones, who played a piano prelude, and accompanied Miss Marjory Johnson, who sang a solo. TEL.

G. ```markdown ``` 10TH BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK More than ever housewives appreciate home-like Bond Bread TEN REASONS WHY THEY DO: 1-Flavor. You recognize instantly the home-likeness of Bond Bread's flavor. Many housewives, recalling their own skill as bakers, declare they can distinguish no difference between the flavor of Bond and that of their best homebaked bread. It is the flavor of sheer goodness, telling you of quality ingredients and perfect baking. And when you toast Bond, its rich, delicious flavor is emphasized. 2-Purity. Only the purest and finest ingredients—the best that money can buy—are ever used in making Bond Bread. Read the list of these ingredients on the wrapper of the Bond loaf. They are the kind you would use if you baked your own bread. They are the kind that housewives used when they showed the General Baking Company how they wanted bread made. For ten years the bakers of Bond Bread have kept their pledge to these housewives that this loaf would have the purity of the best home-baked. Every day more than a million housewives see the pledge renewed. 3-Texture. When you cut a loaf of Bond notice how firm and close-knit the texture is. Evidence again of quality ingredients and extreme care in baking. Bread cells such as these retain flavor and moisture. The slices do not crumble, as they will when texture is uneven. Cut them ever so thin, into whatever shapes you desire, the surfaces are compact, the edges clean. And sandwiches? Where hostesses are most charming and YOU and your friends are cordially invited to inspect any of these Bond Bread kitchens: Bronx Blvd. & Rosewood St., New York Telephone: Olinville 3796 120 East 144th Street, New York Telephone: Mott Haven 4207 540 East 81st Street, New York Telephone: Butterfield 1700 10010—91st Avenue, Richmond Hill Telephone: Richmond Hill 2800 495 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn Telephone: Flatbush 9621 314 Mercer Street, Jersey City Telephone: Montgomery 3012 248 Waverly Avenue, Newark Telephone: Terrace 0400 Please telephone in advance of your visit so that arrangements can be made to take care of your group. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY, OCT. 19, 1927 BIRTHDAY TH than ever ho e home-like REASONS WHY T their parties most successful, you will usually find the sandwiches made of Bond Bread. 4-Crust. Of a brown which indicates exceptional value in food ingredients, the crust of every Bond loaf is delightfully appetizing. That inviting look tells you of perfect baking. And so pleasingly crisp and tender is it to the taste that you will want every morsel. One doesn't trim away a Bond Bread crust. 5-Size. When housewives baked their own bread they preferred a loaf of Bond Bread's size. They knew from experience that too large a loaf showed over-fermentation. It looked bigger, but it was less substantial. Unsightly air-holes appeared when it was cut. Most important of all, the rich, delicious home-like flavor left with the quick drying of the loaf. And so, following the example of truly economical housewives, the bakers of Bond Bread have held to the loaf of greater values. 6- Uniformity. Wherever you buy it, Bond Bread is always the same in appetizing appearance, firm, close-knit texture and homelike flavor. It is the same loaf to-day that it was when housewives first welcomed it to their tables, made from the same pure ingredients, with the same purpose of making it unnecessary for these housewives to bake their own bread. No other bread sold to-day has such a record of unchanging, uniform excellence. Brun 7-Freshness. Bond Bread is delivered fresh from the oven to most grocers every day. This promptness and regularity of delivery enables you to make your bread purchases according to your requirements at home and at the same time to be sure that it will be fresh for your table. 8-Nourishment. Because only the purest and finest quality materials are used, Bond Bread is wholesome and nourishing. Children thrive on it. Mothers write of its beneficial effects upon youthful appetites and digestion. Robust bodies and good dispositions testify to its high nutritive value. 9-Freedom from labor. Before Bond Bread came, women had to keep on baking at home. They could not buy bread that was as pure and flavorful as their own home-baked. Today Bond Bread gives thousands of women physical freedom. It has taken them out of their kitchens and given them an opportunity to devote their time to wider, happier pursuits. 10-Guarantee. On the wrapper of every Bond Bread loaf is the "bond" of the General Baking Company that only the pure ingredients listed and no substitutes are used in making Bond Bread. Bond Bread gets its name from this "bond." It is the same "bond" that was on the first loaf of Bond Bread bought by housewives ten years ago. Since then more than two thousand million Bond Bread loaves have carried that guarantee. FOR those who do not know the firm, close-knit texture and home-like flavor of Bond, we add a second, unqualified guarantee: You will like Bond Bread better than any other bread—except the best home-made—or you may have your money back—every cent.

"HOW to make my kitchen attractive is my greatest worry in the home. I have used blue and white for several years. My landlord will decorate to suit me. Please tell me what colors I should use?" queries one of my readers. In our present-day apartment houses the majority of us have no dining room and the kitchen answers a twofold purpose. Consequently, it is very necessary to use good taste and care in making it as pretty as possible. Have your walls and ceiling a pretty light green. No doubt you have an old table with a drop leaf discarded in your pack-room. Paint your table and chairs orange, decorate in black. Then hang orange curtains and orange shelf oilcloth. Gather your curtains to one foot in width, thus exposing a white sushi curtain of daimyo mate. If you cannot use the above, your kitchen would be very pretty in yellow, or even red, with white walls and ceiling. Furs Now is the time to select your furs for the coming season. In buying furs there are many things to consider. First of all, which is the most becoming? A number of women who wear them should not. It is not necessary to have a fur coat to be well dressed. Cloth coats are very popular. There is always some kind of fur collar that is becoming and it is the most important feature of a coat. Let us not always be guided by style and fashion, but by that which makes us look best. I would suggest raccoon or muskrat for the business girl, or for general street wear. These will wear well and are not matronly. The stout woman must limit herself to the short-haired furs, for they are noater than the shaggy ones. Red fox is still very popular and is effective as a trimming on cloth coats. Squirrel is the most youthful of all dress furs, but is very perishable. For a dress coat, seal is the old standby and looks well at all times. A good, inexpensive coat is dyeed cony and wears well, if care is taken in choosing your pelts. Now, girls, do not wearermine, mole or heaver to football games or other sport events.

Can they be dyed? MRS. E. WILLIAMSON. Dear Mrs. Williamson: Please let me know the color of your walls and floor covering. It is essential in getting the desired effect.

CLEVELAND, Oct. 17.—Jack McVey of New York, recognized colored welterweight and middleweight champion, whipped Dave Shade of California in a twelve-round bout at the Public Auditorium here last Wednesday night, but the best he could get for his efforts was a draw decision, rendered by Matt Hinkle, local boxing promoter, who refereed the contest. A consensus of the newspaper opinion at the ringside credited McVey with winning practically every round and the decision almost caused a riot, as the 12,000 fans present booed long and loud for fully ten minutes until policemen could make them leave the auditorium. The New Yorker speared Shade with lefts to the body until it appeared as if the Californiaan would wilt from the punishment. McVey seemed to have Shade's bobbing and leaving style down to a nicety, for as the latter tried his tricks he was met with terrific left hooks to the body under which he was almost paralyzed. All through the twelve rounds Shade fought in the peculiar crouching style that brought him to the top among the middleweights, and almost won for him the welterweight championship when Mickey Walker.

FANS PROTEST CLEVELAND RING ROBBERY Amateurs Still Hot; Barrett K. O's Abrahams the Toy Bulldog, was cock o' the walk of the 147 pounders. Although Shade tried every ring trick he ever learned in six years of campaigning among the topnotchers, McVey made him look ridiculous as he kept pounding lefts and rights to the body with monotonous regularity. It was McVey's fourth appearance in a Cleveland ring in a period of nine weeks. Jack knocked out Wolfft Langford, of Chicago, in ten rounds, and was awarded a draw with Bob Sage, of Detroit, and Pete Latzo, ex-welterweight king, although his margin of victory over the last two was almost as decisive as that he scored over Shade last week. The bouts were promoted under the auspices of the local branch of the American Legion. McVey and Shade both scaled at 15 6 pounds at 1 o'clock. PHILA.

Ruth estimated the loss at 40 baseballs. The game was an extremely slow affair because of the many periods taken out to permit Ruth and Gehrig to shake clinging boys from their legs. Bases were stolen several times while the catchers chased boys feeling with a ball that fell from their gloves. Fielders were forced to untangle masses of fighting unclips to get at the long drives. The final score was Ruth and Gehrig -6 and the Giants 5. Ruth hit a home run. Wins Over Dave Shade THE BATTLE OF THE WORLD JACK McVEY Whipped Dave Shade in Almost Every Round Last Wednesday Night in Cleveland, but. Was Robbed of the Decision and White Fans Staged Demonstration in His Behalf. Defaults Marred Fine Set of Amateur Bouts Last Week Two defaults in the finals marred a fine set of bouts conducted at the Maris Stella Knights of Columbus clubhouse at Far Rockaway last Friday night. Jim Davenisch, after defeating Tom Collins, of the Metropolitan Life, in the preliminary, was unable to continue because of an injury sustained in the Collins encounter. The other casualty, Tom Murphy, broke his hand while disposing of Oscar Hulford and was unable to meet Ed Calvin of the South Ozone Club in the final of the 145-round class. Charles Beckler, of the Astoria K. of C., and August Ferdinand, Salem-Crescent warrior, fought toe to toe for three rounds. Beckler copped the verdict. Beckler was a bit more the aggressor throughout, and but for a short period in the second round, when Ferdinand rocked him with well-timed blows to the point of the jaw, Charley had the situation well in hand. The bout was a special one, both boys being 138 pounds. In the other special, a 128-pound tussle between Jack De Santi and Patsy Silvestri, De Santi won by a knockout early in the final stanza. The summary: 118-Pound Class—Lou Simmons, One Hurley, Patsy Silvestri, M. C. A., knocked out Sid Platlik, unattached, first round; Jim Davenport, Salem-Crescent A. C., defeated Tom Collins, Metropolitan Life, three rounds. M. C. A., knocked out Sam Breishand, Commodore A. C., defeated Tommy Thomas, Salem-Crescent A. C., three rounds; Joe Corey drew a bye. 145-Pound Class—M. Calvin, South Carolina, Metropolitan Life, Pat Dardenko, Reesch's Gym, second round; Tom Murphy, Veteran Foreign Wars of Far Rockaway, defeated Oscar Hulford, Salem-Crescent A., three rounds. 182-Point Class—Jack De Santil, South Ogane A.

Holmes Loses to Delmont BOYON, Mass.—Gonnie Holmes, featherweight of New York, lost the decision to Al Delmont of Dorschester in a fast and furious sight round bout at the Suffols A. A. show in Mechanic building, Friday night. Two weeks ago Holmes knocked out Delmont in four rounds. He was not a fortunate Friday, for the white boy came back strong and in a manner surprising to the game little colored man. However, many of the experts who saw the fight declared that the referee could have easily declared the bout a draw. Herbert A. Allen IMPRESSARIO Artists furnishing for all occa- sions.

The Seward Gym bantamweight won a special 118-pound class bout over Alfred Valent, unattached, in the amateur boxing show at the Columbus Council, K. of C. Levine was extended to the limit to earn the decision. Carl Hansen won the 128-pound class laurels by knocking out Al White.

Tickets, $1.65 - $1.10, at Box Office PACE WAS TOO FAST FOR VOGEL PACE WAS TOO FAST FOR VOGEL Bruce Flowers Rose to Great Heights at the Garden Last Week In the semi-final of ten rounds between Bruce Flowers, fast flash from New Rochelle, and Sammy Vogel, Harlem, to the Delaney-Renault bout at Madison Square Garden last Friday night, customers saw another bout won by Flowers by a big margin. Vogel in the second round sent Flowers sprawling to the canvas. In the sixth and seventh Sammy had Bruce hanging on the ropes. Flowers rose to great heights in this battle and took the show by storm. His punching at close range and clever boxing proved too much for the rugged Harlemite, who had an advantage of six pounds in weight. Flowers took seven of the ten rounds, Vogel scoring in the second and fifth, while the eighth was even. After Vogel had clipped him with a long right in the second Bruce elected to box carefully, allowing Vogel to come to him. Sammy kept coming in all through the fracas but he was met by a straight left jab that sent his head back repeatedly. Vogel tried to bring his excess weight to advantage in the clinches but Bruce punched too fast, forcing Vogel to give way continually. The New Rochelle fighter, who seems destined to become a lightweight of renown, set an infernal pace throughout and after the second round the ultimate result was never in doubt. Vogel was clearly outclassed but his aggressive tactics made it a fine bout to watch. Vogel weighed 141 while Flowers scaled the beam at 135. TRENTON, N. J.—Babe Ruth broke up the old ball game here last Tuesday afternoon when his third homer of the afternoon put the Brooklyn Royal Giants to rout by a score of 9 to 4. The Babe and Lou Gehrig played as members of a specially formed Trenton team against the Royals. The field was taxed to its limit by fans anxious to catch a glimpse of the famous fence busters of the American League. Twice before the eighth as Ruth poled, the ball over the right field fence, hundreds of youngsters swarmed into the field to romp from third to home with the King of Swat, each time holding up the game for 15 minutes before the field could be cleared. After his third homer in the eighth with two on base, however, officials found it impossible to get the fans from the field and the game was called with the score 9 to 4 in Trenton's favor. Lou did not fare as well as the Babe, collecting a double and a single out of four times at bat.

HELM-Baritone ING, NOV. 16th, 1927 What "The Blues" Also Brought Clarence FOR SALE Stage and Film Hits at Lafayette "What Price Glory" and Jessie Smith Draw Record Crowd One of the world's greatest motion pictures and one of the finest revues in the road share honors on this week's wonderful program at the Lafayette Theatre. In spite of the terrific downpour which deluged the city Monday afternoon, a crowd that overflowed to the sidewalk greeted this offering at the opening performance. Both stage and screen show were acclaimed by the audience. Never before has any single act received the ovation accorded to Bessie Smith when she sang and danced and made merry with the other members of the company. And never before has an audience sat in such sense anxiety or burst forth in such wild laughter as the inspiring scenes of "What Price Glory" were reeled off. Resale Smith heads by far the best revue she has yet led. Aided by Clarence Scott, The Taskiana Four, Dinah and Gertrude Scott, Clarence Smith, Hooten and Hooten, Darling and Philips and several other well-known entertainers, the revue, which is entitled "Harlem Follies," is as pleasing a show as one would want to see. And the work of Miss Smith places it at the head of the many shows of this kind now touring the country. Encore after encore held the revue on the stage until the dinner hour had long passed. The show was shedled to end at 5 o'clock, but it was after 6 before the applause of the audience ceased and the tired company was permitted to set off the stage. The chorus deserves particular mention. Twelve of the fastest, jolliest, peppest girls it has been the pleasure of Lafayette audiences to see went through the numbers in a way that brought storms of applause. These girls probably could not get into the chorus of a Broadway night club—but they certainly can dance and sing! The musical part of the program was rendered by a twelve-piece band under the leadership of Fred Longshore. As to the picture, "What Price Glory" certainly deserves the tribute paid by the critics, who have called it the world's greatest motion picture. As a spectacle, as a romance, as a story of adventure, and as an example of hilarious screen comedy, "What Price Glory" is by far the greatest production yet given to the world. It is greater than the stage play which caused such a sensation, for the unlimited scope of the screen has been used to the utmost. Scenes of unbelievable magnitude form the background for a most remarkable story that carries the spectator around the world and through the World War. To miss "What Price Glory" is to miss an event that comes once in a lifetime. When presented on the same program with "Harlem Follies" the Lafayette is certainly offering its patrons one of the finest programs possible. LAFAYETTE PACKED DESPITE BAD WEATHER Many Novelties at the Alhambra Theatre Performers and Others Should Turn to Our Long Island Page We take pleasure in presenting another side of the colored performer in The Amsterdam News today. Many years ago when the dramatic editor of this paper came to Harlem to record the doings of our people on the stage, one of the things which we pointed out was the readiness of the average performer to throw his earnings to the winds. We felt that the performer, earning, much more in a shorter period than many of his brothers in other walks of life, should look to the furture and not to the forced "benefits" which are the result of a heedless life on the stage, counting not the cost of refusing to save for the rainy day. In recent years good fortune directed our activities to Brooklyn and Long Island, and realizing that a home was the first step towards that independence to which the thinking among us aim, we directed every ounce of energy towards pointing out the advisability of our people on the stage securing their own homes before prices became prohibitive. The answer to our plea can be seen if the reader will turn to the Brooklyn and Long Island section of The Amsterdam News today. When the work of these people is done they will always be in a position to look forward to the comforts of their own home. Let others take heed and follow in the footsteps of those among them wise enough to provide in time of plenty and "make hay while the sun shines." "PORGY." "PORGY."

Here we find Porgy, a crippled peddler, pathetic in his ingenuousness and likable for his many qualities. During a deco tossing contest a player is murdered by Brown, a black blazer. The blazer is to the positions of the palmato jungle, leaving behind Brown, the dusky lady of his illicit affections.

Underlined for Presentation Next Week There is something new and novel at the Alhambra this week—what is believed to be the first trained animal act to be presented by a Harlem girl. During the course of the revue, "Seventh Avenue Strollers," Gertie Moore presents an amusing act with trained seals. The intelligent animals play ball, juggle, balance various articles, and catch in their months firebrands tossed by Miss Moore. "Look at the sealskin browns!" exclaimed an amused patron. The odd pets are well known to vaudeville folks as Roderick's Seals. Gertie Moore devoted a week to making friends with them and they perform beautifully for her. Another surprise at the Alhambra is Mantan, known as the "California Nut." He is a protege of Punchon and Marco, the eminent producers of the West Coast. Mantan's eccentric comedy and whirlwind dancing, added to the funmaking of Slim Henderson, Emmett Anthony, George W. Cooper and George Green, makes "Seventh Avenue Strollers" a remarkable laughing show. Lena Wilson, who made a great hit in London and Parts with Florence Mills in "Blackbirds," leads the Alhambra girls in "Got Everything but You" and was tumultously applauded. Rose Henderson scores a success in "Varsity Drag" and Kitty Browne archly renders "Did You Mean It?" A domestic tangle in song by Slim and Rose Henderson goes over big with the crowd. George Green and Billy Petway lead the score of Pretty strollers in "Chocolate Brown." The height of the merriment is reached in the playlet. "Ice Cream Charlie," in which Emmett Anthony and Mantan, supported by the entire troupe, have a hilarious time. The photoplays for the balance of the week are: Leo Maloney in the action drama, "Border Blackbirds"; the Hal Roach comedy, "Hired and Fired"; the Aesop's fable, "The Big Reward," and, as always, the Pathe News on the very day of issue.

One of the principal episodes in "Satan's Day Off," the locale being the inferno; but everything that happens is comic. The costumes will be grotesquely artistic, as befits the surroundings, and the music most unusual. The management of the Alhambra says it will be the most ambitious production they have staged, and that there will be an abundance of surprise features. The rehearsal hall is buzzing with activity in preparation for "Flaming Follies." Monarch Band in Rare Program Simpson to Interpret Contributions on the Masters on Nov. 4 When Lieut. Fred W. Simpson's Monarch Band appear in their next concert Friday night, November 4, at Manhattan Casino, the public will be given an opportunity to hear the crack band play selections which, it is claimed, have never before been played by a Negro band in New York City. This concert is the annual affair that the band gives each year. Some of the distinctive selections which will be played that night include "Cavalry Charge," a descriptive fantasia by G. Luders, with special arrangement by Lieut. Simpson. The piece opens with the entire band singing. The bando part in "Cavalry Charge," is particularly good and the beating of the horses' hoofs may be easily distinguished. The selection has a vivid ending with the discharge of several revolvers. Recently the hand purchased at considerable expense a handsome set of chimes. They will be heard for the first time in public at the concert when "Cathedral Chimes," a reverie by Arnold and Brown, is played. Charles Brooks, wilt-known drummer, plays the chimes. One of the outstanding numbers on the program and one of the most difficult band selections ever played will be the "1812 Overture" by P. Tschalkowsky.

Still another musical gem that will be played is Victor Herbert's "Favorites," comprising an arrangement of some of the best selections by Victor Herbert. Rachmaninoff's Prelude will also be played. It is said that this prelude calls for an exhibition on the part of the musicians who play it of rare talent. Burleigh's "Deep River," in a special arrangement by Leit. Simpson, will complete the program Lovers of good music and the most severe musical critics will find that program worthy of hearing. The lieutenant has his men rehearsing faithfully for the concert, as the band has a national reputation to sustain, having met and defeated the finest colored bands in the country for first prize at the annual Elk conventions for the past five years. This year's concert will likely be the finest and most successful the band has ever given. ROBINSON TO PRODUCE NEW REVUE SOON Urged on by the spectacular success of his "Jazzmanla." Clarence Robinson announces that he is casting for his next revue, which will have an early presentation at the Lafayette. The splendid entertainment which Robinson organized in his last revue stumps him as one of the most able and most enterprising of the younger producers. He will be well worth watching.

Last week it was the motion pictures of the Dempsey-Tunney championship fight which the Alhambra boldly presented, in spite of the activities in official circles to prevent it. The Alhambra management knew the law—and the august District Attorney didn't—which he now admits. The harlem public clamored to see the light pictures, and the Alhambra supplied the demand, despite threats and attempted intimidation. Several days after the Alhambra broke the ice" other theatres mustered the courage to follow suit. The answer was that the Alhambra was crowded constantly, as the public seemed to realize the courage and initiative which it required to be first in the field. Even Tex Rickard, with all his legal staff, was cowed into keeping Madison Square Garden dark after the most elaborate preparations had been made and great expense incurred. Madison Square Garden didn't have the Dempsey-Tunney pictures, but Harlem did—at the Alhambra.

Esgman, unattached, in the second round, closely followed by another Salem performer in the person of Dave Miller, who laid low Eugene Collins of the Silent Four A. C., also in the second round. The outstanding fight of the night was that between Gus Abrahams, of the Holy Name Club, and Joe Barrett, unattached, in the 157-pound division. In the first round, Abrahams had Barrett groggy from a series of hard blows to the midsection. Joe could not seem to land a blow on the elusive Abrahams and was missing with lefts and rights. It appeared that Gus would stow away his opponent by the second stanza. In the second heat Barrett rushed from his corner and nailed Abrahams with a right to the head. Gus toterted for the moment and Barrett followed his advantage with another right to the chin that spun Gus around. Before his victim could recover, Joe sunk a left to Abrahams' stomach and Gus went to the canvas. He arose without taking a count, a little dared, and Barrett punished him with three rights to the jaw and he was down again. He took a count of seven on one knee and as he arose Barrett rushed him to the ropes and caught, him with another right to the jaw. This time Abrahams fell flat on his back and did not budge while the fatal count was tolled over him. The summary: 112-Pound Class—John Van Putten, Salem-Crescent A.

Invitations for Postos Club Dance All Out All is in readiness for the fall invitational dansant of the Postos Club, the first organization of postal clerks to give high class entertainment in New York, when they greet their friends at Manhattan Casino this Friday night. This being the ever popular Fletcher Henderson's first appearance in Harlem for the season, he is striving hard to make that one that Harlemites and the other folks who may be invited to the popular Postos' affair, will long remember. Just so, Bill Vodrey, who but recently returned to this country from London where his Plantation Orchestra was the rage, will strive hard to make the folks "at home" long remember his home-coming and that of his orchestra, for this, too, will be Vodrey's first appearance in Harlem for the season together with his celebrated Plantation Orchestra. In addition to the crack orchestras, the young men who handle Uncle Sam's mall by day and entertain by night, have arranged several surprise specialties for Friday night and all who respond to their invitations are certain to long remember the evening. The Postos Club, of which John N. Wilson is now president, have a record for enjoyable evenings which every member claims will be upheld this time in a manner that all will enjoy.

OCT. 19. 1927 LEAGUE STARS TO PLAY HERE Renaissance, in Big Opening, Down Hebrew Giants Before Monster Crowd Sunday From far and near the crowd gathered in Harlem last Sunday evening. The occasion was the official start of the popular Renaissance basketball five season and more than two thousand fans went wild when the boys hit the court to mingle with the crack Hebrew Glants from the Bronx. And it was like old times at the home court of the local players, for many an old star eased in to be in at the big doings and Manager "Bob" Douglas gave the gathering the promised surprise. This surprise came when Bruce Flowers, one of the most promising lightweights in the game today, threw out the ball that started the game. The victory of Flowers over Sammy Vogel last Friday night was fresh in the minds of the audience, and when Bruce stepped to the center to start the boys on their way a great big hand was the result. Old favorites appeared in the lineup of the Renaissance team and when the referee called a half the colored players had the lead by a sale margin, having secured 32 against the 22 score which the Hebrews managed to ease through. The coming Sunday night will find another bumper house on hand to witness the game, for the American League All-Stars are coming to Harlem, bringing such well-known players as Ripley of Washington; Denhert of Celtics; Meuser of Chicago; Cliff Anderson of the Long Island Pros, and Russell and Hickey of Cleveland. It is going to be a big night, if you ask us. In the premillinary game last Sunday night those fast-going Majestic Cubs defeated the boys of the Indian A. C, by a score of 27-17.

EIGHTH AVENUE Athenians Open Season Nov.11 The Baltimore Athenians, one of the oldest basketball organizations in the east, have gone into hard training to be ready for the opening game on November 11. Old age having pretty well wrecked last season's team, young blood hsa been secured to fill the gaps. Joe Jackson and Veney remain from last years squad. Around these two, the team will be built. A month of practice has brought results. Prospects point to a team equal to the sensational 1925-26 machine, which cut such a wide swath in national basketball circles. The Carlisles will open the home season. Out-of-town games are wanted with teams anywhere. A few home dates remain open. Write Wm. S. Harris, 1801 Madison avenue, Baltimore, Md.

NINE DRY GOODS Men's Shirts Bolster Sets Blankets Curtains Portieres Household Goods SPECIAL ARTICLES Keeping Fit By E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M.D. Future Health of the Negro THE death and sick rate of the Negro in the United States has been reduced in the last ten years. Statistics have proved this. But what has caused this improvement in health and the reduction in deaths? I believe that it is due to the better municipal hygiene and sanitation forced upon the ignorant and thoughtless Negroes. It is not due to our individual health measures, since the majority of us today are still lax in personal hygiene and the application of fundamental health laws. Popular health intelligence among us is low—and this is the crux of the health situation. Unless we apply the laws of health to our everyday life, certain prevalent diseases are bound to occur. Take, for instance, syphilis, gonorrhoea, kidney disease, heart disease, arterio-sclerosis (hardening of arteries), apoplexy — these are the prevalent diseases that are causing most deaths today among us. Many of these are preventable. Some are curable. All can be treated and prevented from getting worse and developing serious complications. But we seem to think little of these diseases, and take either no treatment or very little treatment. This is the difference between us and the white race. White people have these diseases too, but they treat them to a finish with scientific medical measures, and the treatment starts early. Today we are reaping the benefits of modern municipal sanitation. In towns and cities there are now sewers and sanitary lavatories. There is prompt removal and disposal of garbage and refuse. There are no stables, due to the lack of water. There are paved, cleaned and sprinkled, thus the fly as a source of contagion is diminished. There is pure water, a pasteurized milk supply, household ice boxes and public cold storage plants. All these are a part of modern municipal and community sanitation. All the people, white as well as colored, receive these blessings of the municipality. Death and sickness are rare in this city, it is about a fair in health matters. Government can go to safeguard its people. Beyond this, the individual must "watch his step." Individual hygiene has to supplement municipal sanitation. We are deficient here. Diseases of inheritance, pregnancy, delivery and infancy are too prevalent among us. There is lessened fresh air and sunlight for us.

CONTINUING in my self- vant, I respectfully call ment Eve made, and one have kept living. They neve- tion with me whether the par- due to respect for Eve or for inclined to say it is both, but ask, "Is that nice?" Woman says man is now the aggressor. It is he, she the one who sought out—whe- ously seeking, "while our sex have to protect ourselves." CONTINUING in my self-appointed task of a public servant, I respectfully call attention at this time to a statement Eve made, and one which her wonderful daughters have kept living. They never will let, it die. It is a question with me whether the perpetuation of this statement is due to respect for Eve or for protection of the sex. I am inclined to say it is both, but fear that some woman would ask, "Is that nice?" Woman says man is now, has been and will always be the aggressor. It is he, she charges, who has always been the one who sought out—who hunted and who is continuously seeking, "while our sex has been on the defensive; we have to protect ourselves." There are two classes of aggressors in the eternal warfare of the sexes: the active offensive and the passive offensive. And when it comes to passive aggression any sensible male will pin honors on the woman. Take the youth and the maid on a June moonlight night. Why is it that she will suggest that a better view of the moon may be had in the garden? Why will she seemingly be led to a seat which she was thinking of when she made the suggestion? Why is it that she and groups desperately at the youth's arm, and, when he rights (?) her on her feet, she murmurs something about his being "so strong" and then, as if it were an afterthought, he hears her wish she was a man? Now I ask you, is that a nice thing to say? Cught that youth's ego be infailed thus? Should his imagination be started off on a mad rumble, in which he visualizes a life of blissful demonstractions, strong even being a harbor to which clinging-vine ship may always run into in the time of storm? And women say men are the aggressors. What is as powerful as the psychological actions and statements of women? They don't make love to man—women prepare the stage and let man do the love making. And what is so amusing for women? They think he is forcing the issue when there is no issue—the fact has been long settled. Life is full of examples of woman's passive aggression. Take any case—the poor fellow in the never realizes how much like he he is in the hands of the man who likes and admires when he "happens in" in love; the day, woman "just have the coolest saliva water." The mere especially for the babies. We should demand more playgrounds and parks in our communities. You cannot get these if you do not vote and demand them. We should think more about the hygiene and economics of marriage. Poverty, low wages, overcrowding with large families breed disease. I have seen more disease in our people after marriages. We have to give the responsibilities and its obligations. We marry too young, under our present economic standard, and so the babies do not get the best care. They are artificially fed while the mother goes to work; there are too many babies for a tired and worn-out mother; there is not the proper medical care because the parents cannot pay for adequate medical services; the husband drowsens his worries with drink, and the family budget is increased in cost and cost of living numbers. Thus disease thrusts its poison into the bodies of many of us who otherwise would be well. Our death rate can still be further reduced, but only through individual care and hygiene. Each of us must do our part along lines of social and individual health laws. Dispensaries, health centers, milk stations, visiting nurses are all good, are all helpful, but unless the majority of us apply to our individual bodies the rules, laws and regulations of personal and social hygiene, the death rate among us will continue to be high. storms, People and Theories HAMILTON * Ought to Done* appointed task of a public sentiment at this time to a state-which her wonderful daughters will let, it die.

If it is in winter, with a cutting nor-wester coming around the corner at "umteen" miles an hour, and he calls, does his chilled senses, ever warm up to the thought-out arrangements of every piece of furniture in the living room? No. The dumb sap walks in like the brave 600 rode. First, feel the comforting temperature. Next, how convenient the table or chair is for the man's hat and overcoat. Now look at the lights—subdued and seductive. The chairs are full of magazines and newspapers—no place to sit except on a davenette. Gaze over my shoulder as I word-paint this seat: Pillows are strewn all over the desk and SEAT PLACES of the end—and I can sit but there? The man sits, smiling, like the simp he is, over the fact that the woman must move the pillows or sit very close to him. AND SHE DOESN'T MOVE THE PILLOWS. And try as he might, he can never tell just how it happened. he remembers the arm next to her became cramped. He recalls he lifted this arm up to place it on the back of the davenette behind her. These preliminary facts he can recollect with distinctive niceness, but he racks his dulled brain in a futile effort to figure out just how his arm got on her shoulder and she got into the crook of his arm. And there she is—a smiling, altruizing, desirable piece of humanity. There she rests in his arms like an infant, looking up into his face with those eyes reminding him of the glowing fire; the subdued lights, send a mellow re- Belgium's Race Problems While Not Based on Color, It Is Acute BRUSSELS. "O U1, monsieur," said the man who sat opposite man who sat opposite me as we rode from Aix-la-Chapelle to Brussels, "the Flemings are the oppressed people of Belgium. For every Walloon killed or wounded during the war there were two Flemings, but no sooner was the war over than they began to call us "Boche." The above remark, reported exactly as uttered, is by way of saying that Belgium has a race problem of its own—a genuine race problem—in so far as it is possible to take any group of the human race and speak of it as a race. Here are two people—the Walloons and the Flemings: The former of French descent or with a leaning to French culture; the latter of Teutonic descent, with a language, or more strictly speaking, a dialect of its own, who won't blend with or accept the ways of the other. Each believes his traditions to be the better. Another striking fact is that both are of the same color, and their features are so similar that it would take an expert to distinguish a Walloon from a Fleming. Here indeed is a genuine race problem, for every sociologist worth his salt these days is insisting that the difference between man and man lies not so much in their skin color and facial features that it does in the ideas in their brain. For instance, the Negro in America has been thoroughly absorbed mentally, he is so much of a white man within, that as I said in my last article, even the newsbys in Europe recognize him for an American the moment they see him. Further, the Negro reared in Europe or America is at once called "a white man" by the genuine Africans when the former goes amongst them. Many interesting elements—social context—enter into this problem and I shall endeavor to give them as best as I understand them. A thousand or so years ago, Clovis, King of the Franks, or what is now the French, Invaded Flanders and settled it. At about the same time certain Germanic tribes they became next door neighbors of the French colony, or the Walloons, as they were known. Centuries passed during which English, Spanish, Austrian, Burgundian, French, Dutch and other invaders swept over or possessed the land, but jover in a degree strong enough after the mature of the two original colonizers. The latter statement, must be modified, for while the Walloons gradually adopted the modern French language in the place of Walloon, which was a mixture of election over her features; her lips are half parted, half smiling, inviting, questioning, challenging.—CURTAIN Epilogue: He leaves, believing she let him kiss her. After they marry, he proudly walks down the streets of time congratulating himself that he wooed and won her.—(Preston News Service.) Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN "No One Shall Understand Me" His boast is, "No one shall understand me." He refuses to tell his wages to the girl to whom he is engaged. He fully believes that he has the privilege of changing his mind without giving any explanation. Whatever he does is his own business. BUT. Just let his sweetheart try that stun! She's got to be perfect. She must have her past to him so that he can have the satisfaction of turning her away or tormenting her by bringing it up every time he feels like hiding his own guilt, he boasts: "That kid thinks the sun rises and sets in me. My word's law with her. Why, man, she couldn't live without ME." The writer of a letter which I received yesterday knows all, this, but still asks: "Should I marry him?" My answer is! "Yes. If you join to the throne of neglected and cast-aside wives, go ahead." "Yes again. If you want to spend sleepless nights wondering what he's angry about. God only knows." "Yes. If you want him to hand you a few cents a day for food for you and the babies and him. You don't know how much he earns. Amsterdam News By J. A. ROGERS When independence was won, the Walloons, the leaders, for some reason did not make their language the official one, and in time there began a struggle for supremacy, with the final result that both languages were declared official and legal in all affairs. But as we Negroes know only too well it is one thing to declare a thing legal, and quite another thing to be strong enough to a sort its legality. The Walloons remain in power and the French language is dominant at least in those circles where money talks. The simple fact seems to be also that the Walloon is the most populous of the two. Of the 13 or so per cent of illiteracy, the Flemings furnished about 66.2 per cent, proportionally; of twenty-four leading dailies only one is Flemish. The Flemings are rather of the farming type and seem to furnish the most of the laboring class. I asked many persons which of the two outnumbered the other, and was told by some that it was the Flemings; by others, the Walloons; looked up the figures and these were what I found: Flemings, 318,500; Walloons, 2,850,825. Speakers of both languages: 967,813. To find which really outnumbered the other in the library, how much of the last named are Walloons, and how much Fleming. I think, however, that the majority of this last-named figure must be Flemings since they would need it to get positions from the Walloons. For instance, the Fleming who would get work on the railroad must know French. The same holds true for all government positions and the French plains. The Fleming who is used in the universities and in only one of them are the two languages taught, the University of Ghent. As I said in the opening, my traveling companion said that the Flemings are the oppressed people of Belgium, nevertheless I was unable to find any evidences of oppression, such as we know it in Amsterdam. As we were conversing the conductor came around for tickets and, seeing the Fleming smoking in a compartment reserved for non-smokers, he made him stop, whereupon the Fleming told me indignantly that if he were a Walloon the conductor would not have anything, that the fact that he had crossed the German border, and while the French and Belgians do not observe the rule as to smoking, the Germans strictly do. Nevertheless, the Fleming position is not without justification. It is a very difficult thing to learn another language, especially one unlike yours. In the case of the fleming, it is an economic loss, and here there is cause for complaint. The older generations of Fleming's hold on to their traditions. They say: "De tail is gansch hot volk" (The language is the life of the people). Their children grow up speaking Fleming, to find new metaflections and mentioned they must speak French. And growing up in Fleming traditions, they naturally feel that those are the best. All the Fleming's need do is to change their language. To us, who are asked to change our faces and undo the wounds that we have, this is a hair in the soup. There is something much deeper involved; October 19 is a birth date that does not promise very much to its children in the first half of the birth year, but the latter part should be more full of good fortune. The women will be inclined to quarrel with the source of their bread and butter, and this will be a distinct disadvantage. Those who are in business and those who are in the health care year, but they must use care in spending money, since they will be inclined to spend too much. October 29 promises a year that will require care of the health, and care in regards to real estate and property. Elderly people will cause much annoyance. These people will not gain satisfaction through any legal adjustments understands and the best policy seems to be in making things quite and going about accustomed duties. October 21 does not promise very much to its children, except to those who follow artistic trades and pursuits and to those who are in love, but their love affairs will be rather lively. Business and employment are not favored, but those who are already in business or employed should use care and good judgment to hold on. Finances will not be so good. October 22 is a good year for those who are on the screen; who are 'celloists; and for those who are in business and employment. These accidents, sudden ideas, and lack of ready money because of these sudden ideas to spend money unwisely. The year is one of advancement. October 23 begins a new sign, the Scorpion, and is a fiery, warlike, and progressive sign. These people, are represented by the primitive French and that of the natives Clovis found there, the others (now the Flemings) held on to their language. This, of course, was also mixed in with that of the natives among whom they settled. Only a very small percentage of Belgians now speak Walboon. This rather dry detail is necessary to what is to follow. The Flemish language now is really Low German, being strikingly like the language spoken in Holland. Both languages in turn M. — J. A. Rogers — are very much like German. The fact is, Flemish and Dutch are really German dialects, no matter how much they may dislike the idea. Incidentally, I might add that a large number of English words are precisely as they are in Flemish, and at the movies I could sometimes read the Flemish part of the sub-title, instead of the French one, and get a pretty good understanding of it. For example, the child of the sign would read, "Arret des Trems," while the Flemish half read, "Tram Still Stand." All public notices and signs are written in the two languages, and Belgium is the paradise of the printer, the sign-painter, and the interpreter. Just imagine the people of our North speaking one language and the South another and both carrying on commercial, political and other intercourse, and you'll have some idea of it. Here also it is a matter of North and South, for the Flamings are in the North. I might add that this North and South problem seems to exist in America, in India, in Italy, in America, and even in France there is a certain rivalry between le Midi (South), and le Nord (North). People of the North - sometimes call those of the South "Moke", which, by the way, is no term of affection. To return to our theme, Belgium, as is known, became in time an independent nation, winning its independence from Holland. The revolt was also the result of a conflict of language—the Dutch insisted that the Belgians should use the Dutch language. To this the Flemings offered little opposition since their language is almost the same as Dutch, while the Walloons strenously objected and took the lead in the revolt. therefore how can you judge how much to demand? "Yes, if you want to be lorded over, punched in the eye, occasionally sneered at and treated as if you were far beneath him." Go ahead, sister. You can have him, and luck to you.

Your Horoscope By THEARCHER Flemings and Walloons Furnish Study for Sociologists the Flemings are staunch Catholics; while the Walloons incline toward the anti-clerical and the liberal ways of France. Hence, to hold on to their religion more strongly, the Flemings hold on to their language and their traditions. In a religious land like Belgium, politics is, of course, strongly mixed with religion. The two strongest parties are the Catholics and the Socialists. According to the latest figures I was able to obtain the former former nate slightly in the Senate, while the latter have a very slight majority in the Senate, both being present in a matched, a fact that matches the struggle keener. This contest between Church and State has been going on since independence was won in 1830. A third party is called Liberals. These Liberals unite with the Socialists in putting the blame for the alleged high illiteracy of the Flemings on Catholicism. The Catholics, in reply, insist that they encourage education, since before young people are admitted to their first communion they are taught to read. Needless to say, education is not compulsory in Belgium. One Walloon said to me that he felt sure that if the Flemings were a little less religious they would be much further ahead. And this seems to be sound sense. One has to choose symbolically between good and evil. That is, between things that have to do with the hereafter and those things that have to do with the here and now. And usually the man who is experienced in the one is ignorant in the other. In my "salal days" I was very religious, and while I could tell quite positively such things as where Cain found his wife, and what happened in heaven, I knew far less than I do now of such things as scientific farming, of life as it is actually lived, of hygiene, in general of those things that make for a healthy, well-informed, competitive life on this earth. Of course, in the life beyond, provided there is one, the religious man will be the expert while the earth one will be a greenhorn. In that time the Flemings will be ahead of the Walloons and the Negro ahead of the Nordic. Geographical position has also something to do with the dominance of the Walloons. They are in the south, while the Flemings are in the agricultural area. It is astonishing what some mineral, as coal, iron, gold or oil, will do to mold and even to change the ways of a people, as for example, the Indiana of Oklahoma. It is difficult to tell how this problem will end. Because of the nearness of Holland, with its similarity of language, it might go on for still more centuries. Then, too, Holland is near Germany, with its language, which is really low German. Germany, it is said, is destrous of seeing the Flemings retain their language, here will seen the Fleming-Wallock problem has a deeper political significance than appears on the surface. water element, and like water, they can and do mix easily with every one. The undeveloped Scorpions are ruthless, and utterly disregard the rights of others, whether loved ones or friends. Nearly all of these people, even those who are highly developed, keep the right of self-interest and their interests supreme. The men and women do not make very good parents, and the men are especially inclined to be thoughtless in using force upon their children, because they rather command obedience than to understand the child. "Me and you" is a typical quotation of some Scorpions. These people can become less lethal, doctors, and social workers, because they are fearless, when working for a charity. This date promises a birth year that is mixed with blessings and annoyances. The people who deal in real estate are favored. There seems to be an indication of travel, but care should be exercised to avoid accidents and injury. Affairs should prosper with good judgment and forethought. October 24 brings its children a birth year that favors domestic happiness and regular duties. New plans or ideas will hardly be worth the effort expended. These people should have money enough for all their needs, if they do not gamble or enter into new enterprises, for they are well aspected financially. Those who follow professional pursuits are most fortunate. Sudden ideas and plans will cause trouble. October 25 is a birth date that gives its children an active and energetic year, although there will be much inclination to illness, and care in this respect will be greatly to the advantage of these people. Regular duties and affairs are favored. A very good year for regular business. All of these people should learn a deeper consideration of others. The tendency to ridicule and hurt others MAGAZINE PAGE NOW that the fall season has arrived, social functions are in evidence and invitations are winding their way to our mail boxes. Whether or not it is possible for us to attend all of these functions, we feel honored to know that we have a place on the social list of our friends. If the affair is a formal one or of a limited number, it is proper to acknowledge receipt and advise the hostess of our acceptance or regret. Many invitations carry the phrases "R. S. V. P." "Please Reply." Some authorities claim that all invitations should be answered; and that, therefore, these requests for a reply are a reflection on the good manners of the people invited. But such is not the popular understanding. All invitations that are plainly limited to a certain number of hosts, parties, and cards and certain exclusive receptions—should be answered at once, in order that the vacancies may be filled. Whether or not the invitation is accompanied with the request for a reply, all thoughtful people will recognize the propriety. But on many occasions where numbers are not necessarily limited, only the hostess can say whether or not the reply is urgent, since it is a question of her personal convenience, the limits of house room, or some other limitation. A note invitation to a dinner requires a written note of reply within twenty-hour hours. Those who entertain often and in a formal manner may use a card invitation, engraved in script, with blank spaces in which may be written the name of the guest, the words "at dinner" or "at cards", etc., and the date and hour. If a special event is to follow the dinner or cards, the words indicating it are written on the lower left-hand corner of the invitation or across the lower part; "Musical Program"; "Outing"; etc. Card invitations to a wedding are issued in the name of the bride's parents, or; if she is an orphan, by a guardian or some relative or friend who gives her the Man's Poor His Slav Man's Poor Relations His Slaves in Africa (Preston News Service.)

FREETOWN, Sierra Leone, Sept. 30.—Poor relations have always had a hard time of it, according to the story books, but in this tropical section of West Africa a man's poor relations are his slaves. Dr. G. W. Wright, bishop of Sierra Leone, declares there are 219,000 slaves in the British protectorate of Sierra Leone, whom the British Government, because of treaties with native chiefs, is unable to release, except by payments of $20 each. "Slaves are inherited," the bishop says in a statement calling attention to the evil, "and in most cases are relatives of the family. Last February my cook came to me and wanted to borrow $10 to complete a sum of $40 with which to buy freedom for his stepbrother and sister, who were slaves in the protectorate area. Can You Tell? 1. What is the approximate value of church property owned "I pointed out that these relatives were actually in my house in Freeport as his visitors when he made the request, and therefore, being in the colony and not in the protectorate, were, lpso facto, free. My cook, however, insisted that they should be properly paid for, and went back the next day with them to get their freedom certified before the district commissioner. They are now working as foreigners in the protectorate. Many of the men who are slaves, Bishop Wright, said. One chief I know has fifty wives. Most of them he has inherited, and his first duty to them is not as husband but as protector." Domestic slavery, however, will last only another generation. Under the 1926 ordinance of the legislative council, of which the three leading chiefs are members, all persons born or brought into the protectorate are free, and all slaves are to be freed on the death of the master. The Sierra Leone slaves live under primitive condition. They are cotton on tiny spindles twisted between their gers and weave it on easily inadequate looms of stick and rope. They are scantily clothed and one of the chief modes of travel is in dugout canoes. Pen Pointers Pen Pointers By Clifford L. Miller.

They are sent in two envelopes; the inner one contains the invitation itself—the flap of this envelope is not much enlarged. The outside one bears the name and address. A popular method of inviting guests to small affairs is followed by the use of the visiting card. It may serve to request one's presence to an informal dance, a musical, a dinner, to bridge, etc. The hostess merely writes the date and hour and "Bridge at 6 o'clock, or "Dancing at 10 o'clock," etc, and in the lower corner, R. S. V. P., or if she is entertaining in honor of someone, "to meet Miss Mary Smith" is written above her name. Wednesday, October 20, "Dancing at 10 o'clock" to the left and always two lines. Even visiting cards must be answered formally or worded in the third person. Short notice invitations are often issued over the telephone, at which time acceptance or regrets are usually final. It is permissible to ask for an invitation to a luncheon, card party, or club dance for a friend who is visiting one's house. When regrets are malted, it is not necessary to give the reason for declining. Invitations once accepted are binding obligations. If illness or any other cause arise, the invitation should be dinner or luncheon after the acceptance, an immediate note, of explanation or regret should be sent to the hostess. If one finds it impossible to attend a wedding, a telegraph of congratulation should be sent immediately after the hour for the ceremony.

Mock Trial Realistically Presented Before Large Audience in Brooklyn Young Lawyers, Much to the Delight of the People Present, Apparently Took Matters Seriously and One Witness Wilted Under Cross-Examination The Brooklyn Chapter of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity packed the newly purchased Nazarene Congregational Church with an audience of the socially prominent, who had turned to witness the mock trial of "Dr. Wayne G. Cooper" for murder in the first degree last Friday evening. It proved to be one of the most highly entertaining performances staged by the young people of the borough for many a day, and will long be remembered for the rare ability and knowledge displayed by the participants, as well as the close approach to reality in the conduct of the trial itself. Attorney Stanley M. Douglas had taken the murder mystery plot of S. Malcolm Dodson and constructed out of it a splendid court scene. The defendant, a dentist, had been accused of murdering one of his patients by planting a capsule containing deadly cyanide poisoning underneath the filling of a tooth of the patient, which resulted in his death the following day.

As counsel for the prosecution, Mr. Douglas proved a brilliant showman from start to finish, and in a fighting, strong, silver voice, blazed away at the defense throughout the trial. Associated with him were Cecil A. McCoy and Henry Ashcroft of the Brooklyn Law School, who displayed the technique of natural-born lawyers. The defense also showed spurs of cleverness fitting for the actual courtroom. Its legal battery was headed by Clarence N. Johnson, graduate of Brooklyn Law School and president of the local chapter of the straternity. He ap- his associates were quite at home in the presence of the large gathering as they both contested with the prosecution various points involving the law of evidence. Perrey E. New- bie and Mehlin Coleman of the Purdue and Brooklyn Law Schools, respectively, added in the defense. During the course of the evening several well-known young members of the medical profession in Brooklyn, who were also members of the fraternity, were called as witnesses to determine the cause of death by leading their knowledge of chemistry, medicine, pharmacy and dentistry. They included Drs. V. Leonard Williams, St. Elmo Taylor, Henry Jackson and Gerald H. Seon. Miss Namile F. Branche and Miss Gladys Smith made pretty and alert witnesses for the prosecution, as the other two were also the other two and told the story of the terrible discovery of death, and the persistent attempts made by the defendant to steal the widow's affections, since school days, from the deceased. Alexander F. Miller as the defendant took the chair in his own behalf and denied nearly everything that might connect him with the crime." But his fiancée, at the trial, Miss Carrie Dunlap, wilted under cross-examination by the prosecution. The mock trial was not without its humorous moments that at times brought uproars of laughter from the throng. The defendant did not seem to know that his being taken to jail constituted his arrest. He forgot the name of his sweetheart and she forgot his address. Dr. Seem, from the witness stand, resented defendant's counsel's calling him "Doc." Mr. Douglas referred to the defendant as denying everything and was certain that he would have denied that he was born had he thought it would incriminate him to admit it. Mr. C. W. McDougall, who acted as judge at the trial, deigned to take the right to ask the defendant's sweetheart whether he ever made love to other women, on the ground that it would be impossible for her to answer the question intelligently. James Holbrook was the Sherlock Holmes of the evening and told how he had tracked his man from the discovery of cyanide poisoning in the victim's body right back to Chronec Pope's drug store, where the defendant had purchased it. However, the jury brought in a verdict of "not guilty," which was apparently a popular one. ATTORNEYS FOR THE DEFENSE Stanley M. Douglas (A. B.), L. I. B. Cecil A.

PENN RED CAPS IN LOSING FIGHT PENN RED CAPS IN LOSING FIGHT 一 Dropped Both Ends of Double Header to Bay Parkway Club The Bay Parkway Club closed its season at Erasmus Field last Sunday afternoon by defeating the Penn Red Caps in both ends of a double-header, 7 to 5 and 1 to 0. The home team showed class in both games, but was hard pressed by their colored antagonists. The Caps got off on the right foot, but soon fell prey to the slants of Ike Gold, who gave away to Rube Zellers in the seventh inning. The score of the first game should have been a little more decisive but for the wildness of Gold, who walked nine men. Taylor, the opposing pitcher, got four walks in as many trips to the plate. In the third inning the colored haltitossers gave a great exhibition of hunting and, only for a double play, they may have been doing it still. Cottingham lined up a twin killing. The home team's five runs in the fifth inning were a little tainted, for only two were earned. Scott, who was playing right field, lost two balls in the sun which meant three runs. Johnny Enzman and Slim Reeves hooked up in a pitchers' battle in the nightcap and both were at their best. The lone run of the game was scored in the third-inning on two hits and an infield error. Enzman handled seven chances in this game. Willie Jurgess and Whiff Malay starred with spectacular catches. Thomas, the visitors' left fielder, really was the fielding star of the game, however, with five catches of the sensational variety. Jurgess, Schreiber and Malay were the batting stars, with three hits, as their contribution to offense. Reeves and Scott did the best with the stick for their team. The scores: PENN RED CAPS. A.B.R.

Bring Back Its Natural Color, Gloss and Attractiveness Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur added will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxurant. Just a few applications will prove a revelation if your hair is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get a bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound at any drug store all ready for use for only 75 cents. This is the old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft anduxurient.

Laboratory Technician and Director Indigestion Relieved "I drive a car for hire," says Mr. Ike Sabel, of Gadsen, Ala., "and have to get up and go, early and late. Consequently I can't have regular hours for eating and sleeping. I occasionally have indigestion and find it necessary to take a laxative. I had heard of Thedford's BLACK-DRAUGHT Purely Vegetable for a long time. The druggist told me Black-Draught would help me. I bought a package and had it made in to tea and take it any time I feel the need of a laxative. It always helps me. I have much better appetite after I take Black-Draught. I can eat about everything I want and feel full of pep. I would not be without it for double the price." Black-Draught can be taken dry or made into a tea, as you prefer. Either way, it costs only one cent a dose. Sold Everywhere PAINS of Bladder Weakness Relieved by Santal Midy Be sure it is Genuine Look at the word MIDY.

Wednesday, October 19, 1927 Hampton Students Go on Strike Hampton Students Go on Strike HAMPTON INSTITUTE, one of the most famous Negro schools in America, has been closed temporarily by a student strike. Four hundred students refused to attend classes, to take part in chapel singing, or to admit the inspecting officers of the school to their dormitories. Dr. James E. Gregg, president of the institute, suspended all classes and told the students to go home, furnishing their transportation expenses. When classes are resumed only students acceptable to Dr. Gregg and the faculty will be readmitted. THE CAUSES of the strike, according to Dr. Gregg, were insubordination and disorder. According to the students, the immediate causes were a faculty order that the assembly hall should be illuminated during the showing of motion pictures, to prevent "petting" between young men and women; also the policy of confining the student body to the school grounds from an early hour in the evening. The students contend that these orders are reflections on their morals. IF THE CAUSES given are real ones this is the most surprising school strike in history. The young men and women who attend Hampton are known for their seriousness of purpose; it is incredible that they should throw away their purpose simply because they are forbidden to "pet" at a motion picture show. Besides, they knew what the rules at Hampton were before they went there. Behind such a wholesale strike there must be deeper reasons than those given. It may be that the way the Negro student was handled thirty years ago is not the way to handle him now. Forcing Darker Races Together Forcing Darker Races Together CHINESE were barred from white public schools in Mississippi last week by a ruling of the Mississippi Supreme Court. In the case of Joe Tin Lun the court said that friction, disorder and general unhappiness would result if efforts were made to associate the Caucasian race with the colored race in the Mississippi schools. The court defined as colored any race other than the Caucasian, and held that it would be necessary for Joe Tin Lun to enroll in a Negro school. IF THE CHINESE and Japanese ever thought that the Anglo-Saxon did not class them with Negroes they must know better by this time. Many years ago the United States passed rigid laws against Chinese immigration. Twenty years ago, in spite of a treaty between this country and Japan, the Californians tried to keep out Japanese farmers an rid of EDITORIAL PAGE those who were already in California. At the Peace Conference following the World War President Wilson stood out against the recognition of Japanese as the equals of white people, voting to give them the rich lands of Shantung, with forty million population, rather than call them Mister. A FARSIGHTED statesmanship, fearing the rise of the black race, might conciliate the yellow race with the object of using it as a buffer against the black race. But the white race, at least the Anglo-Saxon part of it, seems determined to isolate itself and make enemies of all other races. As a gradual but inevitable result, the darker races will come to feel that they have a common cause. With the white race lowering its birth rate and killing itself off in terrible wars, the rising tide of color will mount higher and higher. Room for More ACCORDING to Government statistics, more than 217,000 Negroes in the South own their own farms and more than 700,000 are farm tenants there are 254 Federally aided Negro agricultural schools, with an enrollment of more than 6,000 students. Dr. E. H. Shinn, the Government specialist in agricultural education, says that these schools are overcoming many of the problems in social adjustment in the South. FARMING might also overcompete some of the problems arising from the tremendous Negro migration to the North. With the rapid development of manufacturing in the last thirty years and the consequent crowding of the white rural population into the large industrial center, the farming districts of the North have grown poorer and poorer in lack of labor. New England is full of abandoned farms and there are many of them in the State of New York. THE NEGRO is still primarily a farmer. If many of the Negroes migrating from the farms of the South to the cities of the North could be diverted to the abandoned farms, New York and New England it would be a good thing for them and for the country. They would find work, which they are skilled and they would escape the fierce competition and high living expenses of the large northern cities. Here and there, New York State is found a Negro farmer who came from the South not hold of an old farm and work himself up to prosperity. There room for many more of them.

Indicted for Alabama Floggings (From Thr World ) After laying itself open to the reproach of doing nothing to bring to justice those responsible for masked-gang floggings. Alabama is in a fair way to vindicate Itself. In Grenshaw county, where more than twenty-five such outrages were committed in less than two years, a Special Gurdy has returned 102 indictments against twenty-eight men in that county and eight others in Butler county. The indictments purported through the intimidation of public officials or other tacit confluence no longer holds good. after laying itself open to the reproach of bring to bring to justice those responsible ked-gang floggings.

Only after long and bitter agitation in the state has a conviction. Bane Only after long and bitter agitation in the press was this action of the Grand Jury taken. Because of the circumstances the Ku Klux Klan was directly under suspicion, and in Alabama the Ku Klux Klan has been all-powerful in politics. At any rate, many months passed and nothing was done. When the Special Grand Jury had been sworn in, Judge A. E. Gamble denounced the rule of the "mask and the lash"; while assuming not to know whether the "outrages were committed with the sanction of the Ku Klux Klan," he called on the officers of the Klan to come to the aid of the officers of the law. Just what assistance, if any, they rendered does not appear, but one conspicuous leader, the Rev. L. A. Nails, Exalted Cyclops of the Georgian Klanver, promptly left home when the Grand Jury met and has not since been found. Other Klanmen of high rank are sharply rebuked by name in the Grand Jury's report. New forces have been at work in Alabama; a changed spirit has been created under pressure of public opinion. In charge of the investigation, now so vigorously prosecuted, is Attorney Charles C. McCall, himself a Klanman. He promises that within two weeks the first case will be called. It looks at last as if Alabama were aroused to the fearless administration of justice in dealing with offenders of whatever class. A True Reformer AN APPRAISAL OF NEVAL H. THOMAS COLORFUL "MOVIES" By THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE A REFORMER is born, not made. Mankind is divided into two types of temperament — the conservative and the progressive, the reactionary and the radical. It is pathetic to see one trying to enact a role for which he is not adapted by nature. I know a number of persons who are conservative, cautious, even timid, but who assume the role of the agitator for reasons of profit or prudence. On the other hand, others of radical, restless spirit hold themselves in lamb-like submission, in order that thrift may follow meekness. But not so with Neval H. Thomas, the true reformer, whom the race is compelled to honor for his regular and recent accomplishments. Washington is a city of conservatives. Here radicalism is not even respectable. The Government sets the conservative pace. The citizens follow. It makes little or no difference whether the Republican or Democratic administration is in power, the citizens shape their government. That of the people. Our local government has no politics, but are always administration organs. We are governed by three Commissioners, one of whom is supposed to be of opposite political faith to the dominant party. But one citizen in ten cannot tell the political differentiation. Everybody is either dependent upon the Government or at times finds himself in a political favor. Conformity is the price which all seekers after favors must pay. The Negro contingent is in a plitable dependent position. The whole race is dependent in some form or other upon the crumbs of political favor. Negro politicians, whether in office or seeking it, live with the finger of silence permeated on their lips. Government functionaries are either too coward or too eager to give up their grievances. Noval H. Thomas lives in Washington. He succeeded Archibald H. Grimke as president of the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Mr. Grimke was independent and foot free; Mr. Thomas is dependent upon the powers that be; for his daily bread. And yet he lags no whit behind his emphatic predecessor in demanding equality for the black man. It "crossed. It requires indomitable table courage to do this. The issue now uppermost with Washington Negroes is the question of segregation in the Government departments. This serpentine movement has been making headway since the days of President Harrison. At first it was all but imperceptible. It made bold headway under Woodrow Wilson, which momentum it has maintained under two subsequent Republican administrations. President Coulidge solemnly presides over the memorial by the fictitious Mormon Trettor that he would gradually put an end to the complaint. But he must have had a reservation of mind by which his words did not convey to us their ordinary significance and meaning. After more than a year we are wholly unable to see the effect of his effort. Indeed, the practice has become greatly emphasized. Our conservative Negro popula- "Drop-Kicks" "And who is so poorly shod as the shemaker's wife." THE lusty pigskin boys of Howard, University's football squad kicked against Mother Hubbard's training cupboard, and were forthwith dropped by Howard's courageous president and Board of Trustees, who still cling to the ancient but sensible idea that education—not football—should be the principal activity on Howard hilltop. Upon being informed that the training table was to be abolished this year in favor of sensible economy and the stretching of funds for education, the football squad decided that a strike was the proper way of expressing their pouling minds and lack of collegiate grade. Such a high-handed, farre could not, of course, be permitted by a struggling university which, through self-help and the aid of Congress, is availing to provide trained leadership for twelve million Negroes—that is to say, leadership in this pig iron world, not on the pigskin Krilltron—and the strikers were directed to put their football logs in cold storage in the basement for the time in classroom and laboratory. As we said above, Howard University is partly supported by Congressional appropriations, which are 'insufficient to meet all the By KELLY MILLER tion, when it wants any reform accomplished, usually sits still and lets "Neval do it." It was so when we sought equalization of public school provisions. Single- handed and alone. Mr. Thomas fought and secured the right of Negro lawyers to be accommodated in the restaurant set aside for members of the bar. But after he had secured the right from availing themselves of the privilege for which Mr. Thomas fought, fearing, supposedly, that they might offend the judges before whom they would have to appear. The DEAN KELLY MILLER. same' Neval Thomas frustrated the attempt to segregate Negroes in the baseball park, the only unsegregated place of amusement in the District of Columbia. For years we have heard of segregation and rumors of segregation in the Government departments. Sundry ineffectual attempts have been made to educe the evil, but no substantial effect has been recorded. It was exceedingly difficult to get at the facts. The Jim-crow parties sidewash, evade and sometimes deny that segregation exists. They were intimidated by the imperative requirement of bread. J. (C. Napier resigned as Registrar of the Treasury rather than become a member to m-crowning his own race. But he did not make the nation ring with condemnation of the injustice of it. It was Wilson's administration that boldly proposed the scheme to set aside a bureau to be offered from top to bottom by a Negro staff. This proffer was declined by the late Bishop Walters. And yet this process is taking place insidiously with less advantage than the Democratic regime proposed. Many Negro clerks, especially those who profit by being promoted to chiefstaff, approve this policy. About two years ago I induced the N. A. A. C. P. to send an investigator to inquire into discrimination in civil service appointments. The matter was frustrated because that was some time ago that this be yoked with investigation of the question of segregation. I insisted that the two issues were separate and could not well be handled by the same formula. But at that time we found it very difficult to ascertain clear instances upon which to base action. But Novel Thomas has smoked out the facts. He has put courage into the face of deers' attacker. Department. who stated the situation to the secretary over their own signature. needs of the universities. Further funds are obtained, of course, through tuition charges, athletics, and donations. But, in all, Howard's financial cupboard is none too full to supply its many needs. Unfortunately, at times many students are unable to supply their individual share of the actual cost of their university life and education; and not a few leave unpaid bills each year, which the college financial authorities have a delicate collection. Yet sympathy and mercy are freely extended in all cases, and the delinquent student is given every chance to cancel his worthy indeedness. Upon those who remain, however, there is the patriotic duty to assist the University in every way possible; to keep alive the college spirit and to send down encouragement to those who are behind the Howard lines. Just where this patriotism had concealed itself in this recent spectacle of the football strike it is difficult to know; but it is a blessing that the Howard authorities, without delay, brought to the mind of every student at Howard the fact that education—not football—is the main job at Howard. If other words, it football and strikes interfere with the regular curriculum, objectives in University, it was high time that those "pastimes" were given "the air." for which the majority of the twelve million Negroes whose future leadership is in the embryo LETTERS Not only this; but he ascertained that the number of examiners in the Pension Office has dwindled from twenty-five to five. This bears out my oft-repeated assertion that, under the present policy of the civil service machinery of the Government, the Negro clerk will soon pass away with the buffalo and the dodo. The question of segregation will then be solved by elimination. When Mr. Thomas confronted the secretary with these facts of segregation in his department he at first indignantly denied it. He has obviously been deceived by his advisers, aided and abetted, no doubt, by certain adaptable eminent men. But, under a further investigation, the secretary admitted the situation and undul the iniquity of his own doing and returned the situation to its previous status. This is the first effective step that has been taken in fifteen years to halt or check segregation in the Government departments. Now that Mr. Thomas has indicated the way, the matter is squarely up to the race to urge the President to redeem his promise and wipe out the infinity altogether. This is more than a local victory. It is national and racewide. The national Government should set the pace. There should be no discrimination whatsoever at the part of the Southern Government. There is not even the excuse of numbers which the Southern States allege. It is a cheer surrender of the democratic principle at the behest of race prejudice. I have often said that Neval Thomas is doing the essential work of the central office of the N. A. A. C. P. Instead of dealing with sundry instances of discrimination, which occur at widely scattered places, it would be better to get at the heart of the matter by issuing a warning center here in Washington. If we can keep the fountainhead pure, the streams which flow from it will be pure also. Here in Washington we have all of the forms of race discrimination which obtain in Mississippi, with the exception of the Jim-crow cars and anti-miscegregation laws. But separate coaches roll into the District of Columbia from the State of Virginia. Residential segregation by tricky contrivance was first legalized by Federal courts of this jurisdiction. Separate schools have become so adjusted to the acceptance of both races that they no longer furnish a subject for discussion. True, anti-miscegregation laws are not on the statute books, but bills are pending in Congress housing the ten colleges in the city jointly controlled by Jim-crow municipal links. In places of amusement the races are as separate as in Georgia. Restaurants, barber shops and hotels are operated for whites only. Judgment should begin at the House of God. Neval Thomas is trying to precipitate that judgment. Some say that he is rash and too heement. But we must judge a hero by his success. If I by Belzebuh cast out devils, by whom do you cast them out? Let those who criticise Mr. Thomas's methods compare their results with his. Neval Thomas is no doctrinaire reformer; he is no parlor preacher of abstract right; he does not conceive of the poor attitude of his culture and refinement to pity the poor and desplised, from whom he feels himself removed by an impassable distance. He is no pinkte agitator; but, like every true reformer, he takes the risks, the hardships and the perils which every genuine reform demands. stage at Howard will be fervently grateful. Citizens' Union of New York THE Citizens' Union of New York City, a powerful civic organization, which asserts that it places no price upon race, religion, or party, has just proved itself true to this creed by endorsing six Socialists, six Republicans, and four Democrats for public service on the Board of Aldermen for the coming term. Nor was the Citizens' Union's interracial promise ignored; for its committee unanimously endorsed, in the Twenty-first district, our own race candidates, John C. Hawkins, Republican, prominent attorney and counsel for the U.S. Shipping Board, and Henry W. Shields, Democrat, who has served his district creditably in the State Legislature. Of Mr. Hawkins, the Citizens' Union said: "He is endorsed for the office on the creditable record he made as a member of the State Legislature;" and of Mr. Shields, the Union said: "He is qualified by experience." He is recognized that the two-party political system, as set up in America, is the best means of carrying out the wishes of the people, yet it is both safe and sane, particularly in a great cosmopolitan city like New York, to have an influential group of politically-neutral citizens, familiar with the municipality's governmental and administrative needs and watchful of the officials to be charged with their consummation, to designate efficient men, roarheads and leaders, to vote the ballot, the people may delegate the performance of acts of good government for all the people all the time. "Portraits in Color," by Mary White Owington The Viking Press, in this city, has published "Portraits in Color," by Miss Mary White Owington, chairman of the board of directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The book, which is composed of a series of intimate studies of colored men and women of distinction, will all personally known to Miss Owington, is dedicated to Moorfield Storey, president of the N. A. A. C. P. In her introduction to the book Miss Owington says: "Thirty years ago it might have been possible to choose the twenty Negroes who could properly be called the most distinguishedressed women of today to one can make such a choice.

Garrett Minturn A vivid picture of life as it is lived in Catfish Row, Charleston, S. C., is presented at the Guild Theatre in the dramatization of Du Bose Heyward's widely discussed novel, "Porgy." The joys and sorrows of these simple folk are portrayed in a gripping manner. "Porgy" is a crippled beggar who unwittingly falls in love with Bess, Jebebel of Catfish Row and sweetheart of Crown, a young fugitive murderer. There is a continuous conflict with Porgy, Crown and a sleek dope pedler known as Sporting Life, struggling kills Crown and during his short absence from Catfish Row the vendor of "happy dust" takes Bess to New York, where she becomes again an unhappy victim of dope. The curtain falls upon Porgy, having heard of Bess' departure, heading North in his little goat cart in pursuit of her. The settings are admirable, several scenes being almost unforgettable. Possibly the most outstanding one is that in which Crown returns in a raging storm to regain his erstwhile mistress. While the Catfishers pray and moan in terror at the storm, that bold heaven assassin laughs and defies Heaven to destroy him. The contrast affords a thrilling moment to the spectators. The wake for the murdered Steve Robbins is also impressive. Some fine sinking of old-time spirituals is heard. Frank Wilson portrays the character of Porgy ably and with sincerity. This somewhat reticent role forces him out of the picture and at times he is engulfed in the mass. Rose McClendon does well with the characterization of Serenna, Catfish Row's lone discipline of Christianity as taught by the white race. The work of Jack Carter as Crown and Evelyn Ellis as Beas is commendable. Georgette Harvey is entertaining as Marle, keeper of the cookshop, Leigh Whipner as undertaker and later as the crankman, and A. B. Conatham as Lawyer Frozier afforded the few amusing moments of the play.—W. G. N.

Picked Cotton Nearly One Hundred Years (Preston News Service) SHELBY, N. C., Oct. 17.—Few people like to work at any single task for a day or week. When you do anything for three-quarters of a century with a few years thrown in for good measure, you should become an adept for turning out that particular work. Mrs. Caroline Arnold, aged 102 years, has been picking cotton each season well over three-quarters of a century and at her advanced age she can still hold her own with most of the work. Last Thursday Mrs. Arnold, the aged worker, picked 145 pounds of cotton in one day. Just how long she has been picking cotton the time-worn woman does not know. She started many, many years ago as a cotton picker on an old southern plantation when a child. One guess is that she might have been five years old when she started as it was the custom in slavery days to start the slave children picking cotton as soon as they were big enough to toddle. If she started as was the custom she has been picking cotton for 97 years, just three shy of a century. Albon L. Holsey Writes on Business One of the clearest and most illuminating expositions of the present status and problems of Negro business in the United States is contained in an article entitled "Negro Business: Its Real will Ahead," by Albion Lholsey, senior of the National Negro Business League, which appears in the November number of The Messenger. Mr. Holsey contends that the real test for Negro business is in the retail field, and that "in order to successfully enter this field the race must divert some of its better trained young men and women to the retail field and finance the enterprises with the surplus capital of Negro banks, insurance companies and fraternal organizations." Homely Philosophy BY GEORGIA, DOUGLAS JOHNSON Get a Little Joy GET a little joy out of life. Don't sit in the corner and dig in the ashes, nor turn your face to the wall with a sigh. Make laughter. Turn your tears into smiles. It's hard at first, but it pays and pays in the end. Old friends are drawn nearer and new ones made. The whole world is seeking the sunshine. Make it. Get a little joy from life. MUSIC Ernest Hemby, tenor. leaves the city next week for a recital tour of the South. He is a pupil of Prof. Caska Bond. 71.
