Albert A. Smi, Artit, Returns from Europe Past Seven Years Spex Abroad & Plans to Exhibit Painting Etching and Lithograph Here Albert A. Smith, the Ameri artist, has just returned to America. With him in a tiny material form are the fruits of seven years of keen observation above. Paintings, etchings and lithographs carefully planned and portrayed are doctments of his travels. Through Spain, Italy, France, Belgium, Luxembourg and Switzerland Mr. Smith has pash, sketching and painting his impressions. These impresses he will sertly present in an exhibition, doubtless the laest in size and scope ever organized to one Negro artist inmerica. The public will be impressed. The public recalls him as an etcher. His paintings are little known. And lithography—a field still stranger to the Negro he has mastered to an appreciable degree. His early studies were at the National Academy of Design, where in 1917 and 1919 he won the Suydam medal. He was likewise winner of three honorable mentions in draughtsmanship, various prizes in etching and painting. In 1919, he was awarded the Chaloner prize and the Tanner Gold Medal in the same year. He exhibited in the Paris Salon in 1921. While abroad his work attracted favorable attention from French critics. The Revue Du Vrai et Du Beau says "that each of his works contains a revelation of individuality, be it in landscape or portrait, and that this artist, unusually personal in his creations, has before him a delightful career." Les Artistes D'Aujourd'hui says, "it is the knack of this devil of a fellow to grasp the atmosphere of a place at a stroke and build it solidly on canvas and paper." His work is decidedly academic. No trace of the shorthand of art the primitive, or the crude, and childish modernism contaminate his work. As a writer, would go to the best for his guidance, be it Dumas or Shakespeare, so this young artist has followed to the best of his ability the teachings that silent hours before the paintings of Velasquez.

Start your week with a nice corned-beef hash. Some people think corned-beef is only good when boiled with cabbage or when served with onions and potatoes. The following recipe will prove a treat to your family. An equal amount sliced potatoes An equal amount sliced onions (or less) % teaspoon pepper 5 or 6 tablespoons cream 1 tablespoon minced parsley 1 tablespoon fat Heat the fat in the pan and put in the onions for five minutes, over the flame. Remove and add the corned beef, pepper and enough cream to moisten the mixture. Spread evenly on a well greased shallow tin and shake in the oven for 30 minutes. Remember, this hash must not be mushy. One of my readers from the downtown section writes for a good recipe for deviled crab.

If possible, use an aluminum kettle for cooking candy; gate or granite ware is the next best. 3. Take care in measuring ingredients to use exactly the amount given in the recipe. 4. Candy that contains cream, butter, molasses, milk or chocolate should be stirred constantly and must be cooked in kettles much larger than the amount of candy would seem to require, since the candy with any of the given ingredients boils very high. 5. Fondant candy must be kept in wall covered jars or crocks. 6. Hard candy must be kept in tirtight jars. 7. In flavoring your candy, do not take a chance of spoiling the taste by adding too much flavor. Truths and Half-Truths The modern girl is not one half as and as she is painted. In fact, and would be.

MARSON traveling on German, is not cheap, the cheapest in Europe. One may ride from Berlin to Munich, a distance of 600 miles, for less than $5, fourth class. There are four classes on the German trains, and the only difference worth mong between third and fourth is that the former goes on the fast trains and the latter on the slow ones. The difference between second and third is the matter of upholstery; the third class has wooden seats. From Berlin to Munich, the second class, which books a bit more pretentious than our day coaches, costs $12.61, or about one-third less than America. Third class is $8.17. I sampled the fourth class, expecting to find only laborers with bundles, but was surprised to see the quality and appearance of some of the people. The normal method of travel of the middle class folk seems to be third class, while only the very wealthy seem to travel first. From Amsterdam to Berlin I traveled third class, finding the accommodation very good for the price, only $10. The cars were kept very clean, and as to the toilets, one found in them what he does not even find in America, individual hand towels. One wonders how the railroads are able to do this, because, as I said, they are compelled to bear the main part of the burden under the Dawes separation plan. The trains, too, are fast and are usually on time. The nation is well connected by rail, a fact to which the German army owed much of its success. Unless I am mistaken, I think Germany has proportionately a rail mileage greater even than the United States. From Berlin to Leipzig is a two hours' ride through beautiful farming country. It was Sunday, but the farmers were in the field on week-days. All must keep busy to pay the heavy taxes. Leipzig is noted for its fairs, which date back several centuries. Among the most interesting signs are. The railroad station, the largest in Europe and one of the most artistic; the Church of St. Thomas, where Johann Sebastian Bach, the famous organist, once played; the monument of the Battle of the Nations; the Academy of Music (Leipzig is a great musical center, being noted for its Gewandhaus concerts); the State Academy for the Study of the Graphic Arts and the Book Trade—an international book exhibition was held in Leipzig this year; the University, noted as the alma mater of Goethe; and the Art Museum with Max Klinger's great picture, "The Blue Hour." Leipzig has an air of prosperity. The shop windows are filled with expensive articles, the cafes were filled with well-dressed crowds. The Market, or chief business square, looked spick and span. The buildings are a poem in modern architecture, though the square itself was marred with colossal advertising constructions. At the east end of the town is a combination fair and amusement park, with much the same kind of amusements one finds at Coney Island. As I said, except for the language, one can very well fancy himself in America in many parts Germany. There was an immense crowd, with the barkers at same tricks for getting the red into their side-shows. colored people seem to be very in this part of the world.

I think they are about to all from the former German colonies, and they said they had con- rtable difficulties in getting work because the white landlords were treating that Germans should be given the preference. They said that Germany had lost her colonies she had lost in the North. Some had moved to the German army and one in the army. Nearly all of them seem to speak English, many of them being played in England. Negro I saw in Berlin was at least well dressed as 14 J. A. Rogers I said before, though several of them said they hadn't been able to get a job in months. Please do not ask me how this is done, as I will be forced to choose between being truthful and being polite. And at this I am having a hearty laugh. I am thinking of the propaganda that was waged in Congress and in America against the French colored troops on the Rhine on the statement that their presence was a studied insult to the German woman. The simple truth is that in Germany, as in every other part of Europe, a very large percentage of white men and women find special delight in sex associations with Negroes, precisely as do white men and women in America, their descendants. The single difference is that in Europe, with no color prejudice, the couple appear in daylight, while in America it is like Nicodemus—by night. in my book on racemixing, for which I might find a publisher in the next fifty years, I quoted Maximilian Harden, leading German journalist; from Iwan Bloch, foremost German sexologist; from RED A Short Story of an Inc Place Down in THE honeymoon Ford noised Georgia road.

This habit he had of completely ignoring her in his more thoughtful moods had caused her serious annoyance in the otherwise flawless months of their engagement. What did he think about so seriously? What on earth did he think about? Did he realize he was neglecting her? On their honeymoon, too. She touched his arm lightly. "Whitney, what are, you thinking about?" Her gesture of impatience seemed strikingly immature—like the simulated annoyance of a child playing at being grown up; a beautiful brown girl-child, with brown black eyes and a saucy, crinkly, brown black boh. "Why, about you, Carol dear. About my wife." He was tender enough now. Her plaque vanished under his possessive smile. "Oh—nothing." The sad and not, thoughtfulness had returned. Bay She insisted, "Carol, I'm wondering if you are going to be happy here. Everything is so different from New York." "Different! Yes it is. I'm going to be happy." Linda Forster, and from England, report to the United States senate and of the fact that the women in Virginia had no one to run with the women when they were going to them through the because women. In one chapter of the book performed to, I quoted from not less than twenty famous white thinkers to show the fondness of white men and women for sex association with Negroes. Among them was the famous satirist, Juvenal, who lived in the first century, A.D. My investigations in Europe have everywhere confirmed, so far as I am concerned, what these writers have said. Still, I suppose well have to listen to what our white sociologist's say about antipathy because of physical difference. In the restaurant at Leipzig I ordered dinner, and what I got was enough for a small family. The leg of veal, deliciously cooked, would be live or six portions in a New York restaurant. I drank coffee, while the hundreds of others, either dining or listening to the orchestra, each had a schooner of beer. Schooners, forced to be submarines in America, haunt themselves quite brazenly here. As to being the one drinker of coffee, I consoled myself with the thought that they knew I was from America, and well, wasn't supposed to know any better. The Germans take an interest almost eccentric in eating and drinking, even more so than the Dutch. And although the old are gone when the table used to groan or moan, or whatever it is a table does, with Westphallian hans, Strassbourg ples, Pomeranian goose-breasts, Bronswick sausages, and Bavarian beer, still the zest in eating remains. One Roman writer (was it Julius Caesar or Tacitus?) said that the intestinal output of the German was double that of any other people. As I recall, it was put much more naughtily than that. And this is why I found it hard to believe those tales of German arrogacy. I know that the man who delights in a good meal is rarely brutal. Watch, however, the one who gobbles his food, who takes it a if it were medicine to be taken quickly. While swallowing it, he is probably planning how to cheat his neighbor or to lynch him. On the other hand, the man who is relishing his meal can't help thinking loving thoughts. He is usually fat. "give me fat man," said Caesar; "yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look and looks like a klansman."

She sighed happily, nalely. "But the white South?" "Why, Whitney, we haven't come in contact with six white people since we've been down here, and I don't see any reason why we should have to. The colored stores, colored doctors, colored dentists, colored everything! No Jim-crow cars, thanks to our little Ford. And our school. Whitney, with all those poor backward children—I think it's wonderful." "You're wonderful." His voice swore to it. "And besides," Carleasha reminded him, "You promised that if I didn't like it on our honey-moon trip we'd go back to New York." Whitney was silent. Usually in trying to win the girl he loves, a man makes at least one promise too many. Doubtless he had meant it at the time. But now he knew that, whether Carleasa liked it or not, how would continue his work at Baybridge. He however, it isn't necessary to say, just in. Perhaps he'll have hope, he would.

The word in English means—oh, well, I wish to prevent the rush for the dictionary. when he had made the foolish promise—anything to stem the tumultuousnes of that unexpected ed love shower.

He would like to recall the rainbow, if only he could forget the shower. Carol was so—well childish in a way. They were nearing an orchard of early peaches, golden peaches with rosy cheeks. Several boys were there—gathering them—stealing them, probably. They were scrawny, tow-headed youngsters, with watery blue eyes. A little girl was with them—a dainty mite, charmingly intent upon the peach she held in her tiny hands. Slowly biting into her peach with evident relish, her fresh pink dress crisply neat, and her short golden curls asstr in the breeze, she seemed to Carleasha a child from a story book cover. The car was quite near the little group now. Two men approached from the other side of the orchard. Typical "crackers." Tall, blonde and slow-stepping, they could have been the little peach pilfers grown suddenly a quarter of a century older. Suddenly they were seen by one of the boys. "Come on," he called to the others, and they scampered, shouting across the road. The little girl, hesitating just a second until her baby mind could grasp the situation, followed. Whitney stopped the car with a suddenness that caused it to bounce off the ground. There was a scream of pain and child terror. The boys were safe, but the little girl] of the story book cover—— "The dunn niggers. Get a car quick!" a nasal voice called out. The little Ford paused only second. No Ford had ever known such speed. "Why, Whitney," Carleashe voice was horror-husked, "Aren't going to stop?" Does He Care? Dear Eggy, Aunt Please tell me what you like of this. I am in love with a man about fourteen years my age. I am two-three years of age, but he tells me he cares for me a lot, but he has never a kod me to go out with him but once. He calls me up and comes around to a one all the time. He takes other girls out to parties and dances. Do you think he cares for me as he said? WORRIED. Dear Worried: If he does, he's got a mighty exasperating way of showing it. You know it's mighty cold outside these nights, and it looks to me as if he's using you as a little comfort provider. I know what I'd do if it were my case. I'd ask him point-blank why he didn't desire my company outside my house. He may be obligated to someone and he figures that it's best not to be seen out with you. When a follow cares for a girl, he wants to share his good times with her. Since your friend does take other girls out, I'd certainly ask him what was the matter with me. Ask him teasingly and pleasantly, though. If you act bossy, he may get stubborn and you won't know any more than you did before. Sincerely, BSYPSY ANN. Dear Egypt Ann: What do you think of this? I have been married for twenty years. My husband is 45 and I am 40. We've always been happy until several months ago when I discovered that he is having an affair with a young girl. He's infatuated with her and even calls her name in his sleep. He doesn't know that I know about it and I'm not the type to start a rumpus. I've never bothered with other men. We have a nice home in Brooklyn and I've always been true to him, but here's one time I'm tempted to be spiteful. What do you advise? Dear Friend: DISILLUSIONED. You know your husband is at the age where men act queer. They're afraid the world won't know that they are boys and so they'll do anything. I show that they still have young ideas. Just leave your husband and his affair alone. He'll fire of it when he sees that no one is particularly bothered over what he does. I wouldn't lose the opportunity of letting him know that I'm not unaware of his tricks, however. Don't let him believe that he's blushing anybody. As for you, well, it wouldn't hurt if you left some clear ashes around and aroused him a little bit. He's too sure of you. Go out with some of your women friends I'll make it through Shelterville to the paved road." "Jump as far as you can"—somehow she found herself polished on the running board—"They won't think of your getting out, but it just as well not to leave footprints too near the turning. Go to Dr. Jack." "Jump!" She obeyed. Standing bewildered in the middle of the Williamstown road, she watched the car speed out of sight. She had never been to Williamstown. Neither had she ever heard of Dr. Jack, Walking in the heavy dust was difficult, especially in high heels. Carleasha tried to hurry, but the road stretched before her, flat and unending, a relentless ribbon, Adam red, as far as she could see. It was only two miles to Williamstown, but it might have been twenty-two. The hideous landscape in screaming red and rose and pink! And Whitney a coward sheing from—Why? For the first time she realized what he was feeling from. Not the law. They were in Georgia. Bloody, Klu-ruled Georgia, with primal roads of Adam red, Cain red, dust! She halted, terror struck. Why had she left him? Why had she left Whitney? She might never see him again. Oh but she would. Surely she would. He was safe. He was so wise. Whitney was so wise. He could take care of himself. Yes, she was sure he was safe. Still—grusome tales of mob vegeance and clan terror thrust themselves upon her memory in vivid detail. He was not safe! What a curious swimming in her head. And that horrible red, red road. It screamed at her. She must scream back. Sometimes they—No, No! It had been an accident. Surely he would not be —she could not even think the word—for an accident! But in Georgia. What could not happen —what had not happened to a scream in Georgia! JULIA E. RUMFORD CLARK It might take him up a bit a painful worry if I were you.

The marriage partner or sweetheart will cause a great deal of worry and heartache. The government or the law does not favor these people. Money matters will cause concern. Patience will bring much benefit. January 5 promises a birthday that will be successful for business and employment, but money matters will be unsatisfactory, as it will be necessary to spend it as soon as it comes in, and it is likely that home affairs will be more than usually expensive and disturbing. January 6 offers a birthyear that will be full of disappointments, especially from journeys that are taken in expectance of gain. There will be good news for many of today's people from one high in authority, but there is likely to be a disappointment connected in some way. These people will have to earn all they gain from the year. January 7 will bring the people of today a birthyear that will prove doubtful in regards to promotion in business or employment. Most of these people will have money; and those who follow literary or intellectual vocations are most favored financially. These people should be very discriminating and thoughtful in making changes of residence, as changes are likely to be attended with adverse results. It would be better yet not to make any changes. January 8 brings the best birthday of this group. The year will be full of romance for the young people, and many of them will marry. The women are most favored, but the men can gain much from the year too. The year will be full of new ideas, new friends, new plans, and much that will bring success, but all these bene fits can be lost through, quarrelling and nagging. January 9 brings a birthday that favors those who deal in real estate, and those who follow artistic pursuits. The government and law are adverse. Many of these people will cause themselves much financial distress by too much confidence in others and by the desire to get some easy money. January 10 will bring success to the people of today who are willing to work hard for success. These people should be careful in expressing their political opinions. her head nched! What was the doctor's name? Dr. Dr.-wasn't it funny she couldn't remember it. Was that what she was laughing about? Was that what she was crying about? How funny to laugh and cry at the same time. And the people stared so. They must think it funny for her to laugh and cry at the same time. But they didn't laugh. No, they were asking her something. What were they asking her? Funny language they spoke. It made her laugh. She could hear but she couldn't understand. It made her cry. Perhaps if they knew who she was—so she began to call out again and again: "Tm Mrs. Borden—Mrs. Whitney Borden—Whitney—Whitney Borden!" Carleasha was right. Everyone in Williamstown knew Whitney Borden. Wasn't the Baybridge school the best one in the county? But why should his wife be trumpeting the road alone, and hysterical? Perhaps it was not really she. Some poor sorrow crazed woman, possibly. Well, never mind. The poor lamb, whoever she might be, in a bad way. They must take her to Dr. Jack. There were two reasons why she should go to Dr. Jack. In the first place she was sadly in need of medical attention, and Dr. Jack was the only colored doctor in Williamstown. And then, too, Dr. Jack was the man to go to when you were in trouble. If you needed advice or influence or money, or if your girl ran away or your boy was arrested, Dr. Jack would help you if he could. And he usually could. Thus it happened that Carlesha found herself in a cozy rocker in a strange room talking to a tall, brown black, white haired man that she'd seen some place before; she couldn't remember where. He was coating her in a soft, Southern voice to tell him something. She would like to oblige him. He seemed so kind and fathery. What did he want to know? Oh, yes. She remembered. He must want to know about the red, red road; about running over the picture hook girl and then running away. She could tell him, if she wied. It was so simple.

The sense of speed, which has mesmerized thinking of today, is evident in letters, which record tracts few people are interested in and which most people readily surmised.

Then she let someone named Annu put her to bed, because she was Whitney's wife and Whitney wanted her to. Carleasha was, well, childish in some things. The honeymoon Ford noted joyously over the red Georgia road. Peach gathering time was over. Clouds like slow moving cotton beds traveled in fluffy patterns across the vast blue sky. Bare, brown trees relieved the insistent red of the roadway. Here and there deceptive after-blooms reminded Carleasha of a ride and a flight she would never forget. Perhaps Whitney was thinking of it, also. He was so sober and still his broad forehead had ripped the usual three thought hills. He seemed in another world. "Whitney, what are you thinking about?" Carleasha's tone was impatient. "Carol dear, our honeymoon is about now. We'll have to settling down." "Yes, Whitney." There was a wifely thrill in her voice. "And the only fair thing to do after your terrible experience here is to take you back North, a I promised you before we came here, and again when I found you at Dr. Jack's." Whitney was disgusted with his weakness. He had recognized that promise as a mistake. Why had he repeated it? "And you don't want to go, Whitney?" "Carol, I can't go." "On account of the school, dear?" "Partly on account of the school, and partly—I don't know how to explain my wanting to stay here, Carol." "I think I understand. I feel the same way." For the first time, Whitney noticed in her eyes the haunting melancholy of the sorrow sona. "I think I understand. This is my country from Maine to Florida; from Ne'er" to California.

The sense of speed, thinking of today, is evident in acts few people are interested in, readily surmised. If the writer is result may be a rambling dissertation and clearly reveals the author's perhaps the newspaper, the telephone and the radio are responsible for some of these changes. Through these mediums events, ideas, entertainment and instructions are recorded and conveyed quickly and with less effort. Few people care to discuss by letter current events of a general nature, and there are such few people with whom one can discuss personal affairs that many consider personal letter-writing an unsalted and borneome process. When letters are employed, they should express the writer's individuality. They should be legibly written and worded grammatically correct. No one can line how intimate social no should be commenced or concluded, but it is always advisable remember that gushing parsers are mawkish and seldom ring-scereely. The deepest sentiment may be conveyed convincingly the simplest words. Never imp that the writing of your letter an effort, that you have had n time in which to write it, or that you must conclude it hastily. None of these excuses is complimentary to the recipient. They may be convenient, but they are not gracious excuses. "Gratefully" as a concluding phrase is permissible when it states a fact. If you are grateful for a favor, there is no objection to your saying so. The best way to conclude social notes is "Sincerely," "Very sincerely" or "Very sincerely yours." A social letter to a married woman must be addressed to "Mrs. Henry Johnson" never to "Mrs. Mary Johnson even should she be a widow. Notes and business letters usually have a specific message. Letters may be as long as inclinal permits if they are entertain but the writer should beware writing merely for the same "getting a letter off." Noble wants to read a jumble of mingled words. A letter must interesting and, as often as possible, cheerful news. A dream, dissertation of woes is never welcome; even one's most intimate friends will soon tire of such correspondence. The routine of most lives is sufficiently similar so that it may be guessed at without being penned. Malleable gossip is certainly not constructive and is often dangerous to put over one's signature. If you are blessed with a sense of humor which you can use to advantage, your letters are likely to be welcomed; if you have descriptive ability, and can give to your distant friends a clear-cut picture of some unusual circumstances or scene; or if you are among the gifted few who can crystallize your impressions sufficiently to convey them convincingly, you are an exceptional and entertaining correspondent. Lacking such ability it is best for you to write briefly, expressing interest in happenings in the life of your friends, possibly mentioning your own plans, but in the simpler words the language affords.

O. employees, from the boss on down, and let me at this time wish all Harlem a Happy New Year and all members of your family good luck for the next 100 years. Sincerely, F. H.

I. ver Worker "Choosers" at The Alhambra They Travel From Ail Over to See What They Can Filch Filch The old, old saying that "imitation is the sinestest form of flattery" applies nowhere to a greater extent than in theatreworks. At the Alhambra Theatre the players were the sinestest actors they were saving their own little joke over the steadily盛势 in the audience, week after week, of scouts from downtown theatres and directors from playhouses in the city. These visitors are engaged in the gentle art of "choosing," as it is called in show business. That is, they note the features that are the most popular among the audience, that they turn to their own theatre they attempt to reproduce or "copy" what they have seen. It is claimed that the Alhambra is particularly covered by the "choosers" for the audience, that these efforts of white actors. All the while the fact is that the stage material has originated in the fertile mind of a colored author, producer or actor and has himself unable to create and who can hold a job only by filching ideas. The wise newspaper critic happens to be a little irritation first, and most likely poorly played. But afterward sees the thing played by the originator he decries what he thinks is Anyhow, the Alhambra folks take it all humorously and say to the "copy" some come again next week. Well have some good stuff for you—if you can do it. Garland Howard, Mae Brown, the Pan-American Four, the Capitallans, Mozz Baz, Campbell and Furrow, Julia McGee, and the principal entertainers in "The Royal Flush Revue," which will be presented at the Lafayette Theatre in Michaels, who has for years produced an annual Hurtig or Seamun, is the producer of "The Royal Flush." The feature picture for the week will be "The Great Gatsby," starring Bille Love and Lloyd Hughes, young stars created a sensation in the theatrical world by their work in "The Stolen Bride" and screen critics are anxious in their belief that "The American Beauty" is an even greater picture. The popular Whitman Sisters Revue playing a return date at the Lafayette Theatre this week opened to a full house on Monday and from all indi- cated areas at the same house some attendee them at the same house some weeks ago. The Amsterdam News about a month ago pointed out that the productions offered by the dozen girls are among the few of their kind, making money, and their early return to this city bears this out. Another production of which we spoke at the time was the Drake and Walt Disney. The litigation surrounding the latter show the last time in town also bears out what we stated.

These are the formulas for the screen success of Chester M. Franklin, director of the Goldwyn-Mayer's new mystery drama which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre Franklin knows where he speaks. He is the best known amateur musician noted for his dramas of mysteries. "Theatregoons are always interested in a play that is thrilling or mysterious," says Franklin. "From the beginning, they have played it an important time, these factors have played an important role in its success. The early dramas were presented by travelling stock companies that used a sort of a playbook to create a play, and peded down on one side as a theatre and stage. As a rule, the actors were all members of the same family and lived in the wagon when not using it for a role. They would go on one town, they would move on to another, and thing like the modern vaudeville circuits. Almost all of these early play were weed and mysterious—and greatly impressed the audience—sometimes to the extent that they characterized as a means of brightening children when they were disobedient. "The Shakespearean plays owe much of their success to the use of wired scenes, strange noises, ghosts, repeated knockouts, dismal storms, etc., that are hard to imagine in real life. They trapezie. Despite the crude setting in which they were presented, audiences would often stand for hours in pouring rain to see "MacBeth," "Julius Caesar, or some other play. Imagine a scene, or some other scene, like that—the public today hows if it can't get good seats—much less standing room with no roof over them."

TANGO OUSTING JAZZ IN HALLS OF LONDON LONDON, Dec. 31.—The haunting rhythm of the Argentine tango has become more popular in London than the Yale blues and the now almost obsolete Charleston. In practically all the dance palaces the tango is a prominent feature on the program. There are at least four or more dances of this dance in a single evening. At private functions, where the chaperons frown upon the latest terpsichorean innovations, the grace of the tango also has found favor. Its intricate steps also are being introduced on the stage.

A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL Virgin Islanders Apt in Sport THE recent defeat of a crack aggregation of baseball players from the United States warship Wyoming in the island of St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands has served to again center attention on the people of these possessions of our Uncle Samuel down in the Caribbean. About ninety-eight per cent colored in these Virgin Islands, the naval officers and men sent down to conduct the affairs of government have had shock after shock administered to them by the natives on the diamond. The marines at the naval station have tried unsuccessfully to muster a baseball team with enough talent to defeat the natives, and some time ago when they realized the uselessness of their efforts, resorted to the old trade mark of their homeland by drawing the color line. The naval men went so far as to import a Rico Tican outfit in an effort to stay the strides of the natives in the national game, but without success. Recently the Wyoming, on her winter cruise, put into the little island of St. Thomas and one of the first things to take place was the arrangement of the nine composited natives, officers and men from the visiting officials of the government and others, the natives again rose to the occasion and when the Wyoming lifted anchor for other shores it was with a promise to return and again attempt to defeat the boys who switched from cricket almost overnight to baseball. But then the Virgin Islanders had a background in athletic endeavor that has given them inspiration whenever they have entered any form of competition in sports. Peter Jackson, of whom there has never been any greater in the roped arena, first saw the light of day in the island of St. Croix, while Jack Johnson's closest councilor and second in his palmy days also came from the island of St. Croix. To his friends in this country this man was known as Barney, but the writer recognized in him one Furey, who was a cab driver in the island of St. Thomas in his youth and the ringleader of the island from St. Croix. His aunt and his directive cook of many Danish Governors at a government house before the islands were purchased by the United States. Although cricket was the pastime of the people of the islands, the Danes having no national game they could have on to their subjects, for half a century these same Virgin Islanders have been successful in combating the invasion of cricket teams from the British Islands, made up many times with Englishmen who acquired the game in early youth in Great Britain. For more than half a century they have stood undefeated by those it is assumed would know more of their own game than the former Danish subjects. Lee Johnson, another islander, in his heyday gave great promise of acquiring the lightweight championship, and in his time he had the distinction of having Abo Attel and later the lightweight champion of the world, Bobby Leonard, one one Bern Stephens, known as the greatest defender of the English team around host. In devoting this spice to a little sidelight of the people in the Virgin Islands in sport we feel that we are not out of line, for today they are a part of the United States and it is good that our readers should know something about them in this line. Unusually been in sport, the young men of the islands have also defeated some good teams in soccer. The water will recall, and many still living will bear us out, that we were the first to introduce a football on the parade grounds in the island of St. Thomas some twenty years ago, later returning to the islands and for the first time introducing boxing on a scale that attracted all the people of the islands. It was at the Apollo Theatre that we appeared against Hicks Johnson, another native who had named the sea and acquired the art while living on the island. On the contrary, the British Government and other officials, we also made a trip to the island of St. Croix, where in the town of Christiansted and Frederickson, accompanied by her husband of twenty-six loces.

Local Billiard Players Hold Open House and Entertain --- In conjunction with the regular monthly meeting of the Colored Amara club, their club rooms on Monday evening, Jan. 2, the members and friends were entertained with an old-fashioned barbecue roast and roast pig, black-eyed peas and rice. Refreshments and cigars were served at the reception, the association presided as master of ceremonies while Joe Davis, club member and hotel steward, presided over the event. An old-fashioned good time was had by the members and their friends. This was a time when the club was at handling the annual affair of the club, and those present did justice to the occasion under his guidance, assisting Martin and the club's house committee. Music, music and merlery were present; Jones, Wiggs and Peterson, Edith, Barbara Thompson, John Moses and others. The members all renewed their pledge to the club and its activities during the year of 1928. A committee was appointed, with W. H.

M E M M M M M M I N G J G R (a A N S) (From The Baltimore Sun) Paw if any of the older generations, while an colored, have gotten the name of Joe Gans, a Negro boy who runs from the obscurity of an employee in a Baltimore fish market to the lightweight championship of the world. Gans undoubtedly was one of the greatest boxers who ever stuck his fist inside a glove. A natural fighter to some degrees, he was far above the average in intelligence. He participated in hundreds of matches, whipped the best lightweights of his time and held the championship for several years. In addition to this, his good conduct in the ring and in the ring both races. He was a hero in Baltimore more than elsewhere, and since he died in 1910 he has grown into a tradition. It is pleasant to know, then, that the memory of this courageous and skillful gladiator is going to be perpetuated and not allowed to die in forgetfulness. A group of Negroes have started a campaign to honor Gans through an endowment fund for the new Provident Hospital and Free Dispensary. This is for tubercular work, a disease from which Gans died in the age 36. The name of the hospital is perfect, fitting, better than any bronze or marble gesture that might be made. Gans himself would have been one of the first to subscribe to a similar movement on behalf of anyone else. He was more than a fighter; he also was a good citizen and a man. Majestics Cop All Games During the Holidays On Monday evening, Dec. 26, the Majesties traveled down to Ashur Park and defeated the Associated Basketball League, in a fast game by the score of 64-59.

Carlton "Y" Flashes to Meet Bordentown Team On January 11 by Y. M. D. Flasher will journey to Bordentown, N.J., for a visit to the Highland School. The Bordentown aggregation, known as the Wildcats, have been the most successful school in the record to prove a tie. Under the direction of Mr. Lester Granger, Bordentown has always held their own in every line of sport. Carlton is very much pleased in certain ways, but also in others, with one of our outstanding Negro institutions. Roth are institutions found in the South, guiding our group in the right direction so that they might take their part.

Dec. 23 — Cowboys' Cathy Washington represented a notable basketball club, took a mediocre league game from the Vandals of Atlantic City here last week.

It is highly fitting that this great universary of human freedom should be celebrated In Washington, cor it was in this city that Abraham Linevln issued that famous procla- mation that gave freedom tu three and a half million slaves in South- urn territory to be increased by an- other half silllon by the adoprion of che Thirteenth Amendment almost two years later. ‘The City of Washington had been the battle ground on the. slavery question for nwre than thirty vears prior to the Civil War, and the halls of Conxress had resounded with bit. ter and acrimonivus debate between the adherents of slavery and the champions of freedom aver since John Quincy Adams first attempted {9 present the petitions against ‘slavery back in 1835. Senator Charles Sumner of Maséa- chusetts was brutally assaulted and beaten unconscious in the Senate of the United States while portraying the crimes against Kansas by a Rep- vesentative front South Carolina, and verbal combats were the order of the day in the fifties. The City of Washington Is also noted as the birthplace of the first Emancipation bill signed by Presi- Jent Lincoin on April 16, 1832. The bill_ was introduce: by Senator Henry Wiison of Massachusetts and abo- ished slavery In the District of Co- lumbia, thereby striking off the fet. ters from three thousand slaves and teudering compensation to — their masters. But the Senators and Rep. Fesentitiives from’ tae’ boraeistates remaining in the Union pozred forth their viais of wrath and warning against this long delayed act of justice and predicted that the pas- sage of the bill wonld result in the exile oh extermination of the freed slaves. Time alone has proved how yash and extravagant were the pre dictions made by the upholders of ihut ancient and entrenched institu ‘Hon of slavery. | At is difficult for us living in these days to appreciate the power, ag gressiveness and tenacity of the champions of slavery in their efforts to maintain it against the onward march of justice, humanity and the free Institutions of the Republic. To day there is no one to raise his voice against the Emancipation Proclamation, but sixty-five year: ago even the North was lukewarm, Abraham Lincoln waa imbued from his childhood with a love of tree Institutions aud human rights, and naturally abhored human slav- ery. He said of himself "am uaturally anti-slavery, If slavery is not wronx, nothing is wrong.” On September 22, 1862, President Lincoln read the proposed Proria mation of Emancipauon to his Cabt net, stating that he had made promise to his Maker to issue the proclamation If the rebel army wa: King Solomon Masons Hold Quarterly Meeting | Members of the AL W.

A recent development has been ‘the influx of colored people into the large industrial citles of the North. New York has over two hundred Uousand, Chicago and Philadelphia. one hundred and fifty thousand: Wushington and Baitimore, one hundred and twenty-tive thousand, whereas New Orleans, with one hundred thousand, is the only South- en ity that has any sich numbers. It would not be surprising if ‘New ‘York and Chicago had half a mil- lon Negro population in another score of years. Consequently, the so-called Negro question {s no’ longer essentially a |Southera question, but affects the in- yjcitial North as well as the agri- %, wal‘Jouth, It will be solved in Wy North “ou tae gasts ut jastees and eventually f the South on the same basis, as that is the only solu- tion that will be lasting and briug about mutual co-operation between the two races.

THIS anthology, beautifully printed and in attractive binding, is the fourth collection of Negro verson to have appeared in five years. Nothing could better show the recent poetic output by Negros than the difference between this volume and its predecessors. Johnson's "Black of American Negro Poetry," 1924; Keelin's "Negro Poets and Their Poems," 1924; White and Jackson's "Poetry by American Negroes," 1924; contain in all one poem by Counten Cullen and one by Langston Hughes. Not because the compilers were indifferent to their genius, James Welden Johnson, especially, was among the first to greet these younger men, but because they had not yet begun to write. So the new anthology was needed, and after we read lovingly the longer-known poets, Dunbar and Cotter Jr., the Johnson's James Welden and Georgia Douglas---Braithwaite, Hull, Mkay, we come eagerly to the newer names. Countie Cullen leader of this young company, is modestly represented with a few short postings, doubles limited in his choice, as a popular poet is, by his publishers. Of Langston Hughes, there are eleven songs, not the ones I would choose, but how rarely do two persons choose the same verse. And then names follow that have been growing familiar to readers of "The crisis" and "Opportunity," among them Gwendolyn Bennett, Clarissa Scott De Dany (whose death has been shocked us all), Lucy Ariel Williams, Frank Horne, Arna Bontops, Gwendolyn Bennett is charming, sophisticated, with love) images: How strange that grass should sing— Grass is so still a thing. And strange the swift surprise of snow So soft it falls and slow. There follow Crispus Attucks, Toussaint, Othello, Jesus. Clarissa S. Delany's lovely "interim" is here. With the sunlight is courage, but For me the night is a gracious cloak To hide my soul's defeat. Among those with whom I was least familiar is Arna Bontemps, whose lines on death remind one of Stevenson and yet bring up a picture all their own: Go through the gate with closed eyes. Stand erect and let your black face front the West. Drop the axe and leave the timber where it lies; A woodman on the hill must have his rest.

The dormitory cases cited are those of the following students: Thomas W. Young, son of J. H. Young of Norfolk, Va., now attending Ohio State University, and Adm. T. Spalding, nephew of the Durham, N.C., banker, C. C. Spalding. Both of these men paid for a dormitory room by check and had one assigned to them.

Mr. John- In a letter sent to leading editors of white dailies throughout the South, James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, appeals for a united stand against lynching and its extinguators by all citizens, regardless of race or color. Mr. Johnson's letter is as follows: "An editorial published by a Bainbridge, Ga., editor and reproduced and commented upon in a number of newspapers, deserves public consideration at this time. This editor, E. H. Griffin, of the Bainbridge Post-Senatelight, still defends the barbarous crime of lynching. His utterance has relied, well-married children, on "The facts about lynching have been stated before, and to the entire country, but they do not seem to have reached Mr. E. H. Griffin of Bainbridge, Ga., who openly condones, defends and even advocates the abrogation of civilization in favor of the beastiness of mob murder. Let those facts be here restated. "There have been 92 women lynched in the United States during the past 40 years.

Rice, whose "To a Certain Woman," quoted in Caroling Brink, as The Bookman has pointed out, is taken bodily from "An Anthology of Asiatic Vorse."

"An editorial published by a Bainbridge Ga., editor and reproduced and commented upon in a number of newspapers, deserves public consideration at this time. This editor, E. H. Griffin, of the Bainbridge Post-Searchlight, still defends the barbarous crime of lynching. His utterance has received well-merited rebuke from such outstanding newspapers as the Columbus, Ga., Sun and the Daham, Ala., Eagle. Mr. Griffin takes the ground that lynching is the only meet punishment for the aberrant crime of rape. Does Editor Griffin feel, when a mob avenges the crime of rape by lynching or, as is frequently done, by burning a human being at the star while women and children lookon, that civilization is being saved."

ONE KILLED, TWO HURT IN PENNA, EXPLOSION WASHINGTON, M. Pa., Jan. 2.—David Grant, 22, in dead, and Mr. James Allen, 23, and Alfred Fauton, 24, were badly hurt, the latter in the custody of state police as a result of an explosion in Grant a home last Wednesday at the Frances Mine of the Bertha Consumer Coal Company at Hurgettstown. Fauton, who died after the explosion, was perished over the West Vyginia line and arrested by state police. He is held without warrant charged with being responsible for the blast. A. Big Help. If the youngster who is just starting to dress himself has trouble deciding which shoe is which, stamp the lining of the right shoe with a mark of red ink. That will solve his difficulty. As the rolling stone gathers no moss, so the roving heart gathers no affections.—Mrs. Jameson. corded victims of lynching mobs in this country, less than one in five has even been accused of the crime of rape; and it should beorne in mind in this connection that accusation and execution by a mob in the often whiskey-sodden atmosphere of brutal passion is not calculated to establish guilt or innocence, a function for which the entire structure of law and the courts is designed. "The crime of lynching shames the entire country before the civilized world. It can hardly be adduced as proof of the superior culture of the race in whose hands government and the courts rest when they deliberately trample their own institutions of law and orderly processes in the miro often making a holiday scene of act of luthuanity and savior. "Is it not time that apt states for lynching be recognized for precisely what they are? Namely, the most dangerous of churchists and advocates of the lawlessness against which all decent United States citizens of whatever race, color or section must stand united in their common citizenship and faith in America." --- The American Library Association is a national library and is a national library. --- Address all communications and make all changes and address possible only to The New York Amsterdam News 291 Revenge Ave. New York City Wednesday, January 3, 1928 Racial Decline PROFESSOR Henry Fairfield Osborn, the famous scientist, is gloomy about the future of the human race. He says in his latest book, "Manises to Parnassus": "Racial deterioration appears to prevail throughout the world today. We are for the race, even if the individual must suffer, must be the keynote for the future.

He says in his latest book, "Man Rises to Parnassus": "Racial deterioration appears to prevail throughout the world today . . . Care for the race, even if the individual must suffer, must be the keynote for the future. . . . Not quantity but quality must be the aim in the development of each nation to make men fit to maintain their places in the struggle for existence."

There are 2,268 students, and last June degrees were given to 252 graduates. The university now has nine colleges. FOR SIXTY YEARS Howard University has been one of the most famous institutions for the higher education of the Negro, and each year it has grown more important. In view of the illiberality often maniied at the large Caucasian universi Negroes are turning more and EDITORIAL PAGE more in their own universities. It is necessary, therefore, that the Negro universities should have the wholehearted support of the Negro people, and that they should be developed till they measure up to the Caucasian universities from which Negro students are often turned away. FOR OTHER REASONS, too, the Negro needs universities of his own. In the white universities, however liberal, the subject matter of the curriculum is taught from the viewpoint of the white race, and in such teaching, especially in America, the Negro's contributions to history and civilization are slurred over or ignored. As a result, many young Negroes come out of these colleges in ignorance or contempt of the achievements and possibilities of their race, and a consequent uselessness to their race. In spreading and acclaiming Negro history and culture the Negro university can give a great impetus to progress. Lucretia Mott THIS WEEK occurs the 135th anniversary of the birth of Lucet.

Hypocrites RUCE CRAWFORD, a yo editor of Virginia, is an able of the slowly-awakening chance of Southern whites. He weekly paper, and for some time made a determined fight aga BRUCE CRAWFORD, a young white editor of Virginia, is an example of the slowly-awakening conscience of Southern whites. He runs a weekly paper, and for some time he has made a determined fight against lynching. In this fight he has learned some things that people outside the South have always known. He,learned, for instance, the falsity of the saying that the upper class of Southern white people are against lynching, that they deplore it, but are helpless before the rush of the lower class mob. When he began his crusade the professional men of his community started a movement to get people to cancel their subscriptions to his paper. The National Birt Eagle or Jim-Crow THE eagle is universally re- recorded as a bird. He comes down to us through history and bravery, a em- bлемatic of dignity, strength and courage. The Roman eagle typifies the glory and grandeur of that far flung and far fanned empire. The eagle has been adopted as the symbol of the "hand of the tree and the home of the brave," and is stamped in has-relied upon our most sacred emblem — the Al- mighty dollar. On the other hand, Jim Crow is a spurious bird which finds a place in the real family only by the most curious coincidence of name and color. As the term has taken character from association and use, it computed qualities and characteristics are most clearly those of the American buzzard, whose name suggests acorn. The color is that of the crow; but the characters that of the buzzard. Many of living memory will recall the buzzard-eagle dollar of debased coinage, so called in dorsal contrast because of the imprint of the coin on the reverse side. The word Jim-Crow is as curious in its origin and subsequent meaning as any other term in English speech. In 1835 Thomas D. Rice, the original corked-faced Negro minstrel, was performing his mimic stunts in Louisville, Ky. Looking out from the window of his lodging, he observed a Negro hostler executing curious antics, accompanied with improvised words which fitted the action with fantastic aptness. The rhythmic refrain was well suited to the spirted action: "Wheel about and turn around, and jump, Jim-Crow." The comedian was at once struck with the comic possibilities of the performance. The resourceful minstrel composed a song and dance, called "Jim-Crow," which was first performed in the City of Washington. In 1841 the term was first applied to a railroad car set apart for Negroes in the State of Massachusetts. The name of the Negro, who is perpetuated by this incident, was actually James Crow, who was known by the inevitable sobriquet—Jim-Crow. His color was undoubtedly the same as that of the fowl from which his surname was probably derived. This unknown Negro has given a new word to the English language, which has come to denote the various forms of distinction and discrimination by which the Negro is separated from his white fellow citizens, either by law or social custom. When the Constitution was formed, one-fifth of the population was of Negro blood and servile status. And yet this document was rock-based upon the equal rights of all men before the law. The scream of the eagle was heard throughout the land; the croak of Jim-Crow was smothered and unheeded. The fathers and founders were fully aware of the presence and debasing influence of slavery, which was repugnant to the principles of the government which they sought to establish. They vaguely and vainly hoped that somehow, in course of time, this debasing institution and its harmful effect would become extinct. They hoped there would be found no trace of its former existence in the Constitution, which it was believed would survive the un- When he talked with a lynching they defended and vocated it.

But economic native played home with their hope. The cotton gin of the Com- mortheast Yankee frustrated their optimum for the early triumph of the principles of democracy as not far in the inscription of inde- pendence and artfully emphasized in the Constitution. Within the ensuing seventy-five years practically every state in the Union had attained the stature books with laws calculated to de- grade the Negro below citizenship equality. The four or five expe- ptions were found in states where the number of the presidents race JOHN H. HARRIS -Kelly Miller- was too few to be of any social importance. Jim-Crow was flapping his wings lustily and disputing the sway of the eagle in any part of the land. This triumph of the spirit of negation of human rights culminated in the Dred Scott Decision, which sought to place as sharp a separation between the races as the decimal point in arithmetic. Just then the eagle turned on Jim-Crow and challenged him to mortal combat. The nation rose up in its moral might and utterly repudiated the dogna that the Negro had no rights that a white man is bound to respect and sought to cheat him by specific terms of law, with all of the rights, privileges and prerogatives which the white man claims for himself. It was the clear intention of the Civil War Amendments to the Constitution to abolish all legal discrimination among citizens based on race and color. The nation, in its new-found zeal for liberty and equality, went beyond the normal limit of statutory law, passed the Civil Rights Bill, expressly forbidding the denial of civil rights to the Negro on account of his race color. There is no more need a special law forbidding civil discrimination against a group on account of race and color than there is of such partisan enactments in behalf of the red-haired or the left-hanled, if the fullness of their citizenship is recognized and upheld. Citizenship carries with it equal rights, legal and civil. But such was the zeal for the innate rights of human nature as aftermath of the war, which ultimated in the liberation, citizenship, enfranchisement of the race whose presence and statues had been the passive occasion of the defeat of the high conceptim of the fathers and LETT "No Peer Please accept the splendid O issue, in my and clearly in News has no p old organization mendation for ular issue ref ecellent issues.

Thomas Jefferson, who above the real entitled the spirit and purpose of the declaration of independence and of the Constitution, would have related to one that day. For the time being, Jim Stirrow was cozy, impatient and defiant, heathing his wings against the iron bark of his prison house. It did seem that all of his feathers had been plucked and that this almost truant, ungainly bird had lost his capacity to fly. Proscriptive law had been expounded from the sturge books of all the statues, or had been nullified by the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments and the Federal Rights Bill. The english was march of all he surveyed. Jimmy Carter in his age, alert and sullied. But as soon as the heated passion engendered by the war began to cool and the public mind became concerned with other vital issues, his feathers, like the Sampson board, began to sprout again. As result of the Hayes-Tilden compromise, by bargaining human rights for political advantage, Hayes refused to coerce the Southern States to observe the Civil War Amendments beyond their own inclination. The Supreme Court declared the Civil Rights Bill unconstitutional. Hubert Harrison: An Appreciation By HODGE KIRNON THINK that it was Thomas Carlyle who defined genius as the infinite capacity for taking pains, but another able thinker conceived it as the ability to do without effort what others have to labor to perform. Hubert Harrison's great ability took the middle ground between these two opposing views. He took pains with whatever he planned to do in his educational efforts to an extraordinary degree, yet he would oftimes say that he memorized, assimilated and transposed his wide range of reading upon technical subjects into their simplest and most understandable forms with little or no effort. Throughout his entire intellectual career, Hubert Harrison seemed to have been an outstanding personality. That thinking is the highest form of life expression was for him an actuality. His immense fund of knowledge upon the various branches of learning attested to the breadth of his intellectual sympathies and understanding. Unlike many of his contemporaries of lesser fame, he understood that there is an inextricable relationship between the arts and philosophy; the one being the medium for the expression of life, or through which life mirrors itself; the other, the instrument for its exploration. His discursive and discerning mind made it possible for him to appreciate and evaluate the drama, music and other forms of human expression, not only as the strivings of the mind in search for truth, but also as manifestations of social characteristics of the age. Hence, he was always able to catch glimpses of truth and of new ideas and to interpret them in both their ideological and practical aspects. Hubert Harrison spent a great deal of his time in reading a great number and variety of books, but he was able to preserve his in- (Signed) JOHN CLIFFORD HAWKINS Sincere Appreciation ts.

He received his education from the School, graduating with high honors in 188 getson came to the United States. The rebellionary spirit became emboldened. Jim Crow picked up new courage. He first asserted his customed away over the states recently in rebellion. Then he began to spread, his wings in quest of wider dominion. One state after another yielded to his complete or partial away. On the Pacific Coast, where the Mongolian race sought to gain a foothold, he found new food on which to fatten. There are now some thirty states which have one form or another of proscriptive laws based on race or color. There are a few poets—Ness poets—who have perfected the sonnet form. And among them who have written excellent sonnets, Margelson is the most prominent of them all. His sonnets are beauty; they sing always abundantly for the ear. His sonnets of velvet and the dusk, of bronze and granite, flashing light. It is among the writers of this generation who have enriched, or least variegated, the garden of Nero poetry with exotics. He has cultivated some rare plants poetry. Jim-Crow and eagle are now in mortal combat. Jim-Crow is gaining for the moment. America must be one or the other. It cannot remain under partial domination of the two. It is for the sober judgment of the people to say which shall it be—Jim-Crow or Eagle?

His poem lectual individuality and hold the critical ability intact. He was always the master, never the pedant. He always found time to do his own thinking. He carried many social and philosophical problems in his mind for years. He would examine and probe them for hours; then he would solve them for a short period, take them out again and again to be subjected to his rigid tests of critical inquiry, until he felt assured that he had reached some satisfactory solution. If none was forthcoming, he at least was made more aware of the difficulties and subtleties which surrounded such problems. No trace of the Brahmin spirit was to be found in Harrison. He lived with and among his people—not on the fringes of their social life. He taught the masses and he drew much of his inspiration from them. He became their most articulate intellectual expression. This was to be seen when in 1917 he founded the Liberty League and edited "The Voice," the first organ to express the new spirit of the Negro. It is to Mr. Harrison that the credit must go for being the first militant apostle of the New Negro. He assisted in molding and directing this new spirit and its accompanying ideals into their most effective channels. Harrison was a pioneer racialist and radical. He was the first to preach to the masses racialism and all forms of radicalism. He was the first Negro whose radicalism was comprehensive enough to include racialism, politics, theological criticism, sociology and education in a thoroughgoing and scientific manner. Harrison lectured before more well-informed and critical audiences than any other Negro in America upon such subjects as Socialism, anthropology. Negro history and contemporary historical events, especially in their relations to the darker races. His fine scorn and irony were anathema to those who carelessly or ignorantly challenged him without good reason. He was the possessor of an exceptionally remarkable and fertile THE POET'S Poems submitted for publication in 'The be returned unless accompanied with a envelope.
