The prospective Negro groom went to the Rev. Mr. Brooks Saturday night to arrange to have him perform the ceremony, but was told that time must be allowed for the Rev. Mr. Brooks to decide. "It is a very delicate question," said the Rev. Mr. Brooks, "this one of giving religious apprehension to the marriage of a young (white) girl to a colored man. "It is entirely up to my own discretion, and I frankly state that the only impediment to any such sanctionification of marriage is the color question." The Rev.

For weeks the people of St. Thomas had been preparing with intense interest for the promised visit of "Lindy" and the excitement reached high-water mark this morning when the Governor made public a radio from the American Charge d'Affairs at Caracas, Venezuela, advising that Lindbergh left Venezuela at 6:15 for St. Thomas, via the Lesser Antilles, to arrive at St. Thomas this afternoon. The murder and suicide were discovered Saturday morning by Lee Linton, 1 West 133d street, a friend of the couple, who called to visit them. He found the door locked and becoming suspicious that all was not well he went to the yard and glanced into the apartment through the window. The fact that an oil lamp was still burning caused Linton to enter the apartment through the window and upon entering the bedroom he found Mrs. Powell dead (Continued on Page 3.) spondence Lindbergh at St. T.

Fisher Duckett, 20, rooming at 32 West 131st street, Levy's sweetheart, was arrested by Detective Webber hours later at Harlem Hospital, where Miss Levy was going another operation to save her life. Duckett, who at first told the police his first name Samuel, is a redcap at Pennsylvania station. He was held by Dr. Stewart as a co-defendant on the abortion charge. He said to have paid the physician a sum of money to have operation performed. Miss Levy was also arrested and is a prisoner in the men's ward at Harlem Hospital, being held on a charge. Her condition is said to be very serious. Alleged Bigamist Commits Suicide Alleged Bigamist Commits Suicide Served Night Before With Separation Papers by Private Detective Having been served with separation papers Saturday night by what was said to be his third wife, Joseph Roberts, 32, 370 Greene avenue, Brooklyn, committed suicide and was found dead in bed at 2 o'clock Monday morning.

Jailed, Bailed, Jailed Again When Dr. Stewart was arraigned again on Saturday morning before Magistrate McQuade he was represented by Attorney Max Oelbaum, white, 1170 Broadway, who had succeeded Friday evening in having ball set at $2,500 for the doctor through Judge Cornellus Collins of General Sessions. The bondsman was Joseph Whitman, white. "What right have you to get ball for this man without first getting a certificate of the girl's condition?" the magistrate asked Attorney Oelbaum, who explained that the hospital refused to give him a certificate. "Officer Webber, take the stand!" thundered Magistrate McQuade. "What did the physicians tell you was the condition of Liza Levy?" the officer was asked. Girl Has Slim Chance to Live "They said she has one chance in ten." "I hereby dismiss this affidavit Officer Webber, I hereby direct to draw up a true affidavit of the charge," said Magistrate McQiade, while Attorney Oelbaum protested. "No ball!" said the Magistrate when the charge had been drawn up again. "I am doing this at the instance of Judge Collins and District Attorney Banton," he continued. "You had no right," he said, addressing the indignant but calm attorney, "to get ball without the hospital certificate." Doggedly refusing to accept defeat of his purpose, Attorney Oelbaum asked for another certified copy of the charge in another effort to get ball for his client. A hearing for the doctor was adjourned until Monday. Duckett, codefendant with the doctor, was arraigned yesterday and was represented by Attorney Louis A. Lavelle, 15 Park Row. Duckett and Miss Levy are said to have been sweethearts for quite some time and he is believed to have been the father of her unborn child. The lovers kept their plight in strictest secrecy, but the girl's condition soon demanded a solution (Continued on Page 2.)

The families were aroused from their beds about 6 a.m. by the roaring blaze. At 10 o'clock the embers and the hot brick walls were still smouldering. Tenants in 224 were able to escape down the stairway without arm, but in 222 the stairs were completely burnt away and scores were rescued by firemen of Trucks 1 and 30, who raised their tall laders and went about the work of escape with a cool deftness that enabled every fire victim to escape without a singe. Ambulance and Taxi Crash The excitement was augmented when the ambulance from Harlem hospital, driven by John Glimmartin, hite, and bearing Dr. Ghee, crash-1 broadside into a taxi driven by erge Pegara, white, causing the ambulance to turn upside down and arling driver and physician viously to the street. They were duly bruised and cut, and so was taxi driver. Robert Korman, white, 85 East 6th street, was hurt when the ambulance struck him just before hit the taxicab. Police said it as a miracle that no lives were st in the crash. Smoke Eaters" Badly Burned While assisting a woman and two children from the top floor of 222 reman Denny O'Hara was badly irred.

His head as in a pool of blood, which was reaming from a gunshot wound in a right temple. His right hand ill clutched a 32-calibre revolver which ended their lives. Mrs. Powell was in her night otes, while Comacho was fully oted. The fact that nothing in a bedroom was disturbed together with the position in which Mrs. Powell was found led the police to sledge that Mrs. Powell was unaware of the presence of Comacho, who entered her room while she asleep and killed her. Theuple had been dead at least eight hours, according to Dr. Ghee, who as called from Harlem Hospital, then discovered. After shooting Mrs. Powell, Coach placed the muzzle against is temple and shot himself. He aggered from the bedroom and fell sad in the kitchen. Detectives Tutt and Kelly, East 16th street station, learned from neighbors that Mrs. Powell was separated from her husband, who has astody of their four-year-old child, or the past three years she and somache had been living in the asement apartment. Comacho was a heavy drinker, it is said, and when under the influence of liquor he constantly quarrelled with Mrs. Powell. Neighborsated they were frequently awakened by screams from the basement apartment, which resulted from quarrels and fights between Comacho and Mrs. Powell. On many occasions Comacho was overheard treating the life of Mrs. Powell. Most of their quarrels, according to neighbors, was due to Comacho's aloysy of Mrs. Powell and this, the police believe, is the motive for the order. The police are making efforts to create Mrs. Powell's husband. Biggest Attraction FOR February 14th Complete Valentine Assortments DANIEL DRUG CO., Inc.

C., Feb. 6.—The case of Talley R. Holmes, a teacher in the Armstrong Technical High School, who was arrested on January 27 and charged with taking a newspaper from an "honor system" rack at Fourth and P streets, Northwest, without paying for it, was discussed in an executive meeting of the Personnel Committee shortly before the Board of Education met last Wednesday afternoon. In the open School Board meeting the personnel committee was asked to act on the question of a general policy to be followed by the Board in cases where teachers are charged with offenses involving moral turpitude. This question was referred to the personnel committee on December 21, 1927, when the Board voted to reinstitute Edwin B. Henderson, director of physical education in the high schools, who had been suspounded. Mr. Henderson is under indictment on a charge of using the mails to defraud in connection with the sale of fake degrees. Mr. Holmes was on his way to school when he was arrested. A crowd of school boys and girls saw him put into a patrol wagon. At the second precinct station house he deposited $10 collateral. He demanded a jury trial after Assistant United States Attorney Ralph Givens refused to nol pros the charge. He claims that he deposited two cents in the box for the newspaper. Two newspaper-route agents who were watching the rack say that it Charles F. Carusl, president, told the School Board that the positions of teachers who are charged with crimes should be made to depend upon their clearing themselves. They should not be allowed to forfeit collateral in order to avoid conviction and retain their jobs, he declared. It was intimated that Mr. Holmes has been told that the outcome of his case in the police courts will be reported to the School Board. $20 EXTRA --- EACH A DROP IN T TRA --- EACH WEEK --- DROP IN THE BUCKE $20 EXTRA --- EACH WEEK --- ISN'T A DROP IN THE BUCKET!

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, FEB. 8, 1928 WHITE ACCOUNTANT ACCUSED BY NURSE OF HARLEM HOSPITAL Says Man Attacked Her When He Came to Her Apartment to See Her Husband, Who Is a Physician Charged with assault upon Mrs. Helen Bakhtier, a student nurse at Harlem Hospital, where her husband is a physician, Ernet Gangarossa, 27, white, a public accountant, who was rooming at 251 Lenox avenue, near 123d street, was held in $5,000 bail for the Grand Jury on a charge of felonious assault when arraigned Friday before Magistrate McQuade in Heights Court. The Bakhtiers also live at the above address on the fourth floor. KANSAS CITY BLUES Looks like this boy is travellin' . . . and with a full house!

RACE OKEK RECORDS ELECIRIC At the time of his arrest Gangarossa was awaiting trial before the Grand Jury on a charge of rape. When first arraigned, early last week, Gangarossa was held without ball for a further hearing. When Mrs. Bakhtier appeared in court to press her charge against the white man she exhibited a badly bruised face, both eyes discolored and her right arm in a sling. According to the nurse's story, her husband had been treating the accountant, and on Monday night a week ago Gangarossa visited her while she was alone, saying that he wished to see Dr. Bakhtier. Mrs. Ekhtlier admitted him to the room and he immediately tried to embrace and kiss her, she said. When she resisted him Gangurossa brutally beat her about the head face and body with his fists and then threw her violently to the floor causing her to fracture her right arm, the nurse testified. The struggle did not end here however, as the white man evidently did not intend to abandon his purpose. Although seriously injured the nurse said she tried to fight him off and he hit her on the right thumb and arm. She finally succeeded in battling him off. In court Gangurossa confronted the magistrate with discolored eyes and a badly scratched face as evidence of the encounter. The screams of the doctor's wife were heard by several other tenants and Patrolman Rodríguez of the West 123d street station was summoned. The woman's assailant was arrested on a charge of felonious assault and Mrs. Bakhtler was taken to Harlem Hospital in a taxicab. A few weeks ago Gangarosa was arrested on a charge of attacking and severely beating Miss Gertrude Adams. 272 Manhattan avenue, at whose home she had rented a furnish- ed room. He is awaiting trial on this charge, which was brought against him in Heights Court January 29. Duse Mohamed Ali Addresses Africans Says American Negroes Will Be Compelled to Turn to Homeland "We, the darker races, have, had the origin of civilization and we gave it to the world," said Duse Mohamed All, historian, editor, lecturer, traveler, in addressing the first annual meeting of the Native African Union of America Sunday afternoon at the Venetian Studio, 224 West 135th street. "The darker races must ultimately come together," he continued. "If we separate ourselves from our own people we brand ourselves as inferior. We have been taught that we are inferior and this complex reacts upon us in the presence of our so-called superiors. In America here you have too much jazz and nonsense—you are not studying the fundamentals and you are worse off politically and in many other ways than you were in slavery. You are absolutely economically dependent upon the white race here in America. If the Klu Klux Klan should throw you all out of employment, within a fortnight there would be starvation, riot and bloodshed. "You call yourselves American AS CITY is travellin'... and citizens. You are not citizens; you are subject, because you have taxation without representation. Eventually you will have to turn to us in Africa. I am not advocating any "Back to Africa" movement, but it is your only hope for national independence. We want talented, progressive and constructive-thinking men in Africa and her door is open to you." Duse All was born in Alexandria, Egypt, in 1866, and received his education there and in England under Canon Barry at King's College, London. Olenick, White Realtor, Loses Civil Suit After deliberating a half-hour, a jury sitting before Judge Leopold Prince in the Seventh District Municipal Court brought in a verdict for $411.85 Monday in favor of Mrs. Georgia C. Smith, 215 West 138th street. Mrs. Smith brought suit for $700, the balance due on a loan of $1,200 made by her to Irving Olenick, white, a real estate dealer, with offices at 129 West 125th street. Olenick did not deny that he had failed to pay the $700, but contended that he had claims against Mrs Smith that wiped out all but $263.35 which he was ready to pay. Stroke Kills Man, 85 Selzed with a stroke of apoplexy, James Kelly, 85, 221 Ege avenue, Jersey City, died in his home last Wednesday night. Dr. McDede of 239 Ege avenue responded to a call for medical aid, only to find that the aged man had passed away. A City Hospital interne also arrived a few moments later. Depositor Loses $500 in Chelsea Bank What was first reported to be a daring hold-up Monday morning at Chelsea Exchange Bank, Seventh avenue and 135th street, proved upon investigation to be a plain theft. A depositor, whose name could not be learned, laid $500 cash on one of the wall desks and turned his back. A stranger picked up the money, ensed his way out, and then disappeared almost the moment he reached the street. Detectives from the West 135th street station were called in to investigate, but up to press time no arrest had been made. Officials of the bank declined to comment on the incident.

Dr. Lissie C. Carter, chairman of the North Harlem Dental Clinic, presided at the meeting, which was the first of its kind conducted by Harlem dentists. The speakers were: Dr. E. P. Roberts, who spoke on "Dentistry From the Physician's Vitwpoint"; Dr. E. D. Collymore, of White Plains, "Dentistry From the Dentist's Viewpoint." Both speakers stressed the need of proper dental care in relation to general health, and the necessity for co-operation between the physician and the dentist. They also showed the necessity of patronizing Negro dentists in the community. Direct reference was made to the work being done at the North Harlem Dental Clinic, founded by local dentists. Some of the other dentists present were: A. T. Robinson, C. A. Roberts, A. L. Donnellly, Ernest MacDonald, L. Falreclough, C. Ward, A. Scott, Louis Corbin, A. Asaglom C. 72 Ford, H. O. Harding and Robert C. Perry. The Red Cross unit sent a large delegation. This meeting was held under the auspices of the Community Forum of which Aaron Smith, deputy collector of the Second District, is president, Mrs. Mabel Doyle Keaton is executive secretary of the Harlem committee.

Along with Brunder, six of his collectors were sentenced to ninety days each in the workhouse. They were Nathaniel Joseph, 30, 17a West 141st street; Sidney Joseph, 52, 118 West 143d street; Albert Johnson, 43, 222 West 140th street; William Jones, 37, 108 West Forty-first street; Charles Clark, 58, 2463 Seventh avenue, and Joseph Isaac, 37, 117 West 141st street. Beauty College Holds Exercises Founder of Apex System Fred. Fraser, 40, 133 West 140th street, was up for a 30-day sentence but, after it was learned that he was only a player, he was released under a suspended sentence. Brunder's conviction and sentence was the culmination of a "numbers" raid upon an apartment at 2400 Seventh avenue on December 17 by Detectives Hunter and Kline of Inspector Ryan's squad. They confiscated a vast quantity of policy slips and the defendants were arrested at that time. It was learned that Brunder was at the head of the game and he was placed under arrest, also. Probation Officer Jacob Lichter, in his report to the court, said that Brunder had been running the game for years and that his collectors brought in $3,000 and $4,000 a day. Brunder is reputed to be worth a half million. Police were jubilant over Brunder's conviction and sentence, as they see in it some hope that the pernicious game of "numbers" playing in Harlem may be broken up in time.

Speaking before sturents, the North and South in the move the Memorial Chapel Sunday, loss of leadership to the nation and disease, and dwelt at length not only the younger generative are seeking no outlet in useful HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va., Feb. 6—Dr. Edwin Mims, professor of English literature at Vanderbilt University and author of "The Advancing South," delivered at Hampton Institute the Founder's Day address on "Lost Leadership," commemorating General Samuel Chapman Armstrong, the founder of Hampton Institute. Speaking before sturents, trustees, faculty and leaders from North and South in the movement for better race relations, in the Memorial Chapel Sunday, Jan. 29, Dr. Mims deplored the loss of leadership to the nation through premature death, war and disease, and dwelt at length on the potential leadership in not only the younger generation, but among intellectuals who are seeking no outlet in useful action. We have an aristocracy, said Dr. Mims, "who merely indulge in watching the struggles of democracy from the sidelines instead of playing the game. To my mind one of the saddest things in America today is intellectual smartness. In the revolt against duliness they have produced the cult of smartness; their revolt against convention becomes the convention of revolt; in the place of Polly Anna optimism they have put the direst peasimism. Those who would remedy the very conditions they deplore are considered by them merely "jitney mesalas" smitten with the cant of service." In speaking of the contribution of General Armstrong to American life, Dr. Mims declared, "I did not know him, but I have seen him and heard him ever since I have been on the Hampton campus. I have felt him at Tuskegee and have seen him in Rosenwald schools, and in the colleges where Hampton graduates have taught. I feel him in the autobiographies of his two most distinguished pupils—Booker T. Washington and Robert Moton—who have given us all the right to claim them as two of the most useful Americans of this generation." The evening before Founder's Day was given over to a historic summary of the work of those who devoted themselves to the raising of funds for the building and carrying on of the work of the school. Major Allen Washington, president of the Armstrong League of Hampton workers, introduced William A. Aery, who read a paper from Mrs. Sally Davis Thoroughgood of Norfolk, a member of the first Hampton Quartette. The struggles to make friends in the early days of Negro education, as well as to secure funds for expansion, were told by Mrs. Thoroughgood in a graphic manner. Photographs were thrown on the screen, including those of Dr. Booker T. Washington and Major R. R. Moton, who were active in Hampton's work. Ogden Purves, grandson of Robert Ogden, the organizer and director of the Southern Education Conference that drove the entering wedge for Negro education in the South, who is in charge of raising funds for Hampton, told of the methods used today and the re ARE YOU WILLING TO YOUR FAMILY—AN Is anything dearer to YOU YOU given any thought to and girl? ARE YOU WILLING Is anything dearer to YOU than your family? Have YOU given any thought to the FUTURE of your boy and girl? DO YOUR SHARE towards Helping YOURSELF and YOUR FAMILY. What the Negro League for Equal Political & Civil Rights wants is: ECQNOMIC BETTERMENT and ADVANCEMENT for the colored man! We want all the Stores in Harlem to employ Negroes as Salesmen, Salesladies, Bookkeepers, Managers, etc., etc. We Negroes support these stores and enable them to carn their livelihoods. Why shouldn't these stores employ us as their workers? FELLOW COLORED MEN: PATRONIZE ONLY—those, stores that employ Colored Help. If YOU will do this, all the stores in Harlem will be forced to give the Colored Man a chance in jobs of selling, bookkeeping, etc., etc. YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN will benefit from your doing this. They will grow up with better commercial possibilities for their future. Instead of growing up to become porters and elevator-runners, they will become Salesmen, Clerks, Bookkeepers, Executives, Store Owners—bigger and better mercantile workers.

The importance Negro folk melodies have played and still play was apparent throughout the evening program. William J. Schleifeln of New York, a member of the Hampton board of trustees and president of the Tuskegee board, declared that it was the belief of northern donors that Negro youth was sincere in its desire for education and that facilities provided would be absorbed by this interest as fast as provided. Senator Woodbridge M. Ferris of Michigan and president of Ferris Institute, Big Rapids, Mich., spoke in Ogdon Hall Sunday evening on the educational ideas that were behind the development of Ferris Institute. Senator Ferris's forceful delivery and entertaining presentation captured the students and the large number of visitors present at this, the closing exercise of the Founder's Day program.

Husband Kills Wife at Place of Employment PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 4.—While the street was thronged with passersby, a man of medium build, and wearing a light overcoat and hat, entered the laundry establishment of June Wah, at 1615 Pine street, this morning at about 10:30 and asked "Where's Mamie?" Upon hearing her name called, Mamie Myers, about 30 years old, looked from the room where she was working, and seeing the man, remarked, "Oh, that's my husband!" She made a hasty retreat into the backyard. The man had become enraged and followed her. The Chinese proprietor remonstrated with the man and advised him to be quiet, saying "We don't want anything like that in here." The man is said to have hit the Chinman on the head. Following this, he went where Mrs. Myers was standing and after a few angry words, fired five shots into the woman's body. She fell dead in the yard. The supposed husband left by a rear gate and made his escape. Stomach Troubles Headache and Dizziness Stomach Troubles Headache and Dizziness If your stomach is sick, you are sick all over.

To teaching eggs: A teaspoonful of vinegar in water, which eggs are poached keeps the milk from spreading. Vinegar also makes the whites cook over the yolk. To prevent the odor of boiling ham or cabbage: A few pepper pods or bits of charcoal in the pot will prevent this odor, or a little vinegar the cabbage serves the same purpose to the flavor. To cut marshmallows: The scissors in cold water and the work can be done very easily. To Clean Velvets, Velveteens and Plush The materials must be thoroughly brushed. Then they should be snooped with a weak solution of borax or bebzube. When very much soiled, they can be dipped in benzine. Hawaiian System of Sc Registered U. S. F.

February 22 (By FRANCIS.) Paul Berlenhach's All Stars tried to stop the Renaissance Five o'clock night at the Renaissance Casino, but had to be satisfied with the art end of a 52 to 24 score. Paul was supposed to have gone to Florida, but since he was advised to lead his team against the Renaissance, Paul appeared like the od fellow he is, and got a big band when he threw out the first ball. The colored champions, with Capt. Hilton Slocom back in the lineup, n rings around the Stars, and exhibited an air-ight five-man defense at stood them in good stead, for the visitors had a hard, fast, smar am that was not slow to take advantage of the least let down of the maissance to turn it into points for themselves, but the champions were at too much for them. With Saunders getting the tap, the Renaissance, by illumin passing and floor work, kept the ball in their own territory most the time, from which point at the slipshest let down of the defense of visitors, or by their fast passing, they sluded their guards, covered point ter point, and ended the first half 27 to 10 in their favor. In the second half Saunders, who has eloped into a most dependable and silent center, ran with, scoring four in each succession. Scutch and skins, however, stuck close to him and three each in this half. The best that the visitors could do to add 14 points to their first half of 10 while the Rens were milder it seems that no team can get them from making at least 10 his newadays. The Queens Professionals will be the fraction for next Sunday night, and are told that this quintet hosts of strong line-up, which will insure an id game. Tuesday night, February 22, ishaughen's birthday Night, the fessance will meet the Assumption Triples from Brooklyn, at the Newnhan Casino. This team needs no reduction to the fans. The preliminary game will be between the tibernal Girls and the Assumption Girls at the Renaissance Casino last Sunday night in the preliminary game the tri-Diamonds defeated the Monitors to 25 after being out of the short and long stretch of the game half.

Apt. 14 Bradhurst 3573 EIGHT --- TOM MITCHELL PASSES AWAY Was Father of Well Known St. Christopher Athletes and Lover of Athletics When the news of the death of Mr. Thomas F. Mitchell was made known recently hundreds of his friends were shocked and grieved, as he was one of the most popular men in the community. A great lover of athletics, his A. B. sons helped to carry the banner of glory and athletic triumphs of the St. Christopher Club just a few years back, when this well-known organization was opening a forge in athletics and helping to move the way for chess athletes in the ranks of amateur athletics. His sons will be remembered by thousands of the followers of the St. Christopher Club, and included Cilton Mitchell, St. Christopher Marathon runner; Clarence Mitchell, former manager of the track terms of the same club, and Andrew Mitchell, present exalted ruler of Manhattan Lodge of Elks of this city. Mr. Mitchell died on January 21st at the age of 83. He was born in Simpson, South Carolina, but was for many years a resident of Savannah, Ga. He was a member of the Southern Beneficial League up to the time of his death. Funeral services were held February 24 and conducted by the Reverend H. W. Church, the Marianthian Lodge of Elks furnishing an honorary program. Besides his three popular boys, who are as widely known as he was, Mr. Mitchell is survived by his wife, Helen F. Z. Mitchell and a daughter, Mrs. Mitchell. Carefully handled, Mitchell's House boys continue to carry on on track and field, on court and in the ring, many of the old-timers like Thomas Mitchell are passing, and that enthusiastic and moral support which enables youngsters is apparently fast, waiting. Majestics Trounce Eagles The crack Majestic Club soundly trounced the highly touted Washington Heights Eagles, recent conquerors of the Original Infflues and the Mother Zion Seniors. Minus the services of two of their regular players, Capt. Eldridge and Wally Plinn, the Majesties were up against it, but they played like champions and soon piled up a big lead they increased as the game progressed. The all-around team work of the Majesties had their opponents bewildered and the Heights boys, who have been running wild through Harlem, had to be contented with 16 points to the Majesties' 42. Carter, the Majesties' stellar pilot man, ran wild, dropping in ten field goals from all angles of center, center, center, continually meeting some of the strongest teams in the East, are piling up quite a winning streak and will be heard from in the future.

NEW YORK TOURNAMENT HERE SATURDAY International Inter - City Olympic Talent to Show Their Wares Frederick Taylor, Canadian Intercollegiate heavyweight champion from Medellin University, has been paired with George Hoffman, Holy Name Club star, in the International Inter-city Olympic and tournament at the Garden next Saturday. Sixteen contests are on the program featuring leading simon-pures from Canada, Boston, Buffalo, Philadelphia, New Haven and New York in competition embracing every division. Hoffman, the senior national worker, who won the national light heavyweight the last year, carried off the Metropolitan heavyweight championship at the Garden recently, defeating Carson and Sylvan in the in-ring semifinal and finals held on the same evening. Canada is also sending two Y. M. C.

FIVE YEARS A WINNER Last Friday night Captain Sealy led her Mysterious Five to Killahawk, N. J., where they met and defeated the Community Center team by a score of 19-10. The game was an exciting one from the start, and kept the fans on their feet. The team had a high score for the winners, scoring five goal goals, most of them long distance and from very difficult angles. The Mysterious Five had nothing but praise for the referee, Mrs. Taylor, who gave them the squared deal they've ever received on the road. The Mysterious have met the beat in the game and have turned in a record that speaks for it self. PRIVATE INSTRUCTION ELEMENTARY AND HIGH SCHOOLS CIVIL SERVICE PREPARATION Relocation for Groups R.

"WILD CATS" IN B'KLYN On Saturday, March 10, the Brooklyn V. M. C. A. basketball followers will witness one of the biggest games of the season. The Bordertown "Wildcats" of the Bordertown Industrial School will invade Brooklyn for the first time. The Bordertown aggregation can well be called the fastest young team in Jersey.

Plea for Fair Play (From The Brooklyn Daily Times.) An unusual feature was unexpectedly put over on WABC's wave. For the first time, through the air, the colored race pleaded for fair play, asking that the color line be not drawn in sports. Romeo Dougherty, well-known colored sports and theatrical writer, was the one who did the eatest talking and he had the facts regarding colored athletes at his finger-tips. To round out this program, colored artists provided their best, and the whole affair should arouse plenty of discussion. It was a dramatic method of arguing a case, but probably it will be effective. For one thing, stated Mr. Dougherty, Harry Willis did not get a square deal. Lots of fight fans, regardless of color, think the same. Machine Wins Again On Saturday evening, Feb. 4, the St. Christopher Red and Black machine traveled to Montclair, N. J., and defeated the crack Montclair Y. M. C. A. Big 5 by a score of 45-14. The game was well played before a large crowd, outplayed by the team from beginning to end. Their fast playing and accurate shooting were applauded highly.

Cora Byrd Left the City on Monday for the Nation's Capital Some people hesitate to drive an automobile far as far Washington, D.C., at this time of the year and, while there are others fond of the ovarinating exercise of walking, we cannot think of many who would tackle the proposition of hiking it from New York City to the nation's capital, even on a bet. But Cora Bryd is a young athlete who looks upon such a hike as but a mere incident in her young life and, appropriately dressed for the rigors of such a trip, she left New York City on Monday morning to cover the distance on foot just for the fun of it. The barographs of aeroplanes are officially sealed when an airman starts on a trip to prove the true distance covered, but Miss Bryd will carry no instrument to prove she has not hitchhiked on any part of her journey. However, we gladly accept her word, as she is a mountaineer and an amateur little lady, who without hesitation religiously sat down and mapped her route when we suggested it. At the end of her journey she plans to submit a written account of her experiences and observations for this publication. For this reason, when her letter seeking information on the route from the sporting editor appeared in these columns less than twenty-four hours after she started to receive mail from a number of those interested in her undertaking. The little lady is a great lover of the wide open spaces, and when asked to make some comment on the eve of her departure said: "Here we are in the world's greatest and richest metropolis, with its crowded streets and tall buildings, like mountains teering above. It is wonderful to live in such a bustling, busy city, but none so great and rare as those planted along the country road by nature's hand. It is by these that I am inspired to walk to a city that a nation has spared no means in beautifying. It is a place of beauty due to nature, for man cannot surpass nature. "This is all great and wonderful, but my ultimate aim has to do with the physical side of life. I hope to determine the effect of many days of contact with the earth on the human body. As for me, I have a great faith in the good effects of nature upon man, and though in a good physical condition at present, I expect a very vigorous condition on arriving at my destination at Washington, D. C." St. Christopher Meets Capitol Club Here Wednesday Followers of the Eastern League of Associated Basketball Clubs and more especially the St. Christopher entry will be assured of a rare treat on Wednesday, Feb. 18, from the Capitol Club of Akron Park with their complete cheering squad will invade New York for the purpose of knocking St. C. out of first place in the league standing. Although the boys of the 133rd street institution contest the first round for the Vandals the 14th, an altogether different idea is being entertained on the shore lads. Just now Joe Newman's charges are playing bang-up ball and with Harry Jones, leading scorer in the league, dismayed this is bound to be the most important battle of the current season. Included in the Capitol Club line-up is Bill Lawton, former Howard University captain of the team of 1823. Bill has worked himself into splendid team means anything the St. C. team will have plenty of trouble on its hands trying to hold this tricky youngster. Morehouse Takes Twin Bill From Alabama State ATLANTA, Ga.—The Morehouse five took both ends of a twin bill from the Alabama State quint Friday and Saturday, the first by a 41-25 count and the last by the tune of 30-13. The Maroon Tide jumped to an early lead in the first fray, with the vowels in the words "brawl" and the Staters were unable to even up the count. Lewis at forward was outstanding in the State game. Coach Lewis' charges were strong in the closing minutes of the second brawl, threatening at times, until Crawford, Brown and Sapp snowed them under with a heavy advantage. Capitol officials said of strength, so obdurate was his guarding that he was forced out of the brawl for personal faults. 1 Togged Out in Her Walking Costume, Miss Cora Byrd of This City Left Early Monday Morning on a Hike to Washington, D. C. TAYLOR LOSES TO JOE LA GREY Draw Verdict Was the Least They Should Have Given the Bout Joe LaGrey, the Johnston, Pa., weight battler, repeated his victory of a few weeks ago over Sandy Taylor, crack colored armor champion, in the feature eight-round event at the 160th Infinity Armory last Saturday night. He upheld a high-exciting battle. The scrap last week was rather slow, although interacting in spots. LaGrey scaled 155; Taylor, 1412. Taylor and LaGrey missed often through the entire affair, but Sandy's punches were not enough to offset the blows that did land. He danced and danced out of harm's way, while he tied Joe up in the clinches and didn't allow the Pennsylvaniaian to get in very much insurging. LaGrey never stopped coming in, against a less clever opponent, would have swarmed all over him. The colored boxer refused to slug with Joe, but of course he did. He kept his left in LaGrey's face, but never really hurt the out of town battler with that mitt. LaGrey's groundhouse right caught Taylor unawares near the close of the second season, and for a time it looked pretty bad for the veteran. Joe was too anxious, and missed three consecutive left hooks, any of which would probably have caused the dark-skinned boxer trouble. But LaGrey missed a right-hand uppercut that looked as though it had enough power to stop a locomotive. Taylor was a bit wary after that, but he still poked the left in Joe's face with regularity. The bout should at least have been called a draw. MOHAWK BOYS BEAT 'Y' The Mohawk Big Five defeated the Y, M, D, at the Abyssinian Gym on Monday evening by a score of 28 to 10.

Feb. 3.-Visions of the halycon days when the mighty name of St. Christopher threw fear into the hearts of her opponents were revived with all their former brilliance and glory last Friday night in the Titan Auditorium, when the proteges of Charlie Bradford routed the pride and joy of the Oranges to the melancholy tune of 43 to 28. It was a melodramatic sort of an affair. At times the sonnifying play of the visitors caused an ominous silence to befall the excited throng. Then, too, the speed and dazzling bits of play offered by the 133d street boys brought shrieks and grooming too. The poor queen waited with anxiety for the time when their favorites would solve the myfying passing attack of the invaders. Every time the stage was set for a hero to emerge and grab the honors of putting his team to the front a wily crafty St. Christopher man would jump in and hog the spotlight of attention. All the best laid plans of Richard Lee were cast adrift as the unrelenting, resourceful Red and Black machine carried on its work of destruction. On the defense both teams presented bulwarks of strength, but it was the ability of the New Yorkers to cage the pill from a distance that accounted for the Tigers' undoing. Capt. Jimmle Peacock, of the Tigers, strutted with all the pcomp and gracefulness that his name implies and easily carried off the high scoring honors for the evening. With six field goals and two fours, this tricky youngster proved a constant menace to St. G. It would be unwise to name any outstanding player on the St. Christopher team, as all the men acquitted themselves nobly and are a credit to the institution that they represent. If these boys continue their winning ways the Atlantic City Vandals, runners-up in the league, will find the going tough enough when they encounter the St. C. on the 11th of February. The team's loss has flown under the bridge since any Vandal team has played before the critical gaze of Harlemites.

We feel that this young man is deserving of a little attention at our hands, that is why he is occupying our feature columns today. During the past year he has brought three or four splendid revues to the Lafayette Theatre, and it is no fault of his that he has failed to keep them going. Usually his shows last but one week, and that week at the Lafayette, which forces us to the conclusion that the general manager of the house, Frank Schiffman, is not averse to giving Robinson the support which even Negro owner of the theatre in the East fall to give him. Robinson's revues have been among the best, if not the best, we have seen around. These argue Robinson has reptilian to the Lafayette shows entirely devoid of the suggestive stuff which so many tell us is necessary for success, and the ideas which he displays in these revues are original, to Harlem at least, and shows a creative ability which would usher in a new day and bring more wholesome entertainment to a field sadly lacking in the presentation of amusement without the stench of Philadelphia's South street, noted for its decaying fish and disease-carrying files. Noted Cast at the Lafayette Theatre Revue With a Number of Favorites Goes Over Because he has seen fit to cast his shows in a more wholesome setting, which, naturally, necessitates an outlay a little more than is called for in the average, with their cheap and at times expensive houses and other easily secured scenery and costumes, the road is exceedingly hard for Robinson. It throws him against that anag in Negro theatricals of which we have so often spoken, and that is the lack of any cohesive plan among the actors. Not even a working agreement between houses exists which would give such deserving producers as Robinson a chance. One would imagine that a show starting at the Lafayette would move, on into Newark, Philadelphia, then Baltimore and Washington. Exactly five weeks for these hard-working people, who must spend the better part of their lives while working in the theatre, for they must put on three and four shows a day, and lots of times during the week putting in many hours regularly. The decidedly cheap revue, with its much painted hoochie-kootie dancer, singers with raucous voices, comedians who are NOT comedians, and a lot of other things which prove we are not advanced one with the in-tech of cross-breaking friend of 135th street, are the best consideration at the hands of theatre owners, for the profits are much larger and they have no qualms, so they are not moved with any desire to bring back Negro theatres (the few) that place they occupied when a positive force was forced to at least attempt one semblance of a musical comedy. A lazzy indeed, and not so good, it Although their lot is cast in the same where we find certain theatre owners working independently because of the opportunity to bartier and then beat down the just demands of such promoters as modest Cressida Robson. The colored performers he can handle making the Florence Mills Museum fund the success it should be, if ever the hopes of those directly working for the building of the home realized it will perhaps afford a place for our entertainers, set over the best aisles, where they can get together and discuss means of believing their condition. Devices from under such aisles will be included theatrical that will allow the performers trying to reach in those heights in the Neo-Blackstone that will spell real accomplishment to the ambitious, such as the magister who inspired this article. The reached theatrical club of the present cannot and will not serve the purpose of their own reaching out to better thinks. The only inducement is to bring them into contact, bringing out the best among them for entertainment, regardless of its nature, without the opportunity for looking into minds in the right channels, taken thoughts coming from minds made of these places the shells of which serves as a contact for an easy interior. So much for today.

In this dynamic Clara, attired in clothes as snappy as she herself, wakes a winning contest with another who wears simple and extremely modest clothes as she herself.

Care Michael ROBINSON MOST PROMISING OF PRODUCERS Our Observers Say Local Revues Are Hitting Noted Cast at the Lafayette Theatre Revue With a Number of Favorites Goes Over Nicely Combining an exceptionally fine array of talent, a most pleasing musical comedy and one of the season's greatest motion pictures, this week's show at the Lafayette Theatre is a splendid entertainment. The stage play is entitled "Dilio Vagabond." It is a pleasing, closely-knit story of the lion operetta type, with a libretto singing, is libretto and comedy speculations. The cast includes Maud Mills, Evelyn Preer, Billy Higgins, Sandy Burns, The Lily Yuan Trio, Craddock and Shadney and other well-known entertainers. Miss Mills's singing was enthusiastically received. Evelyn Preer and Edward Thompson scored a real hit in a little sketch which combined drama and comedy. The Lily Yuan Trio was the first in a new exhibition of acrobatic and tap dancing and Craddock and Shadney sang with a vim and a sweetness which has rarely been exoiled on a local stage. And those two old masters of comedy-Billy Higgins and Sandy Burna—sent the audience into fit after fit of wild laughter. Burna, incidentally, is the author of the script, and those who saw "Dixie Vagabonds" at the Monday matines at the LaFayette Theatre showed that they appreciated his author as an author as well as a comedian. The music was furnished by Tim Brymian's Band. The chorus appeared and re-appeared throughout the play in some of the fastest and prettiest numbers we have ever seen. The somory was most elaborate, including a cool, illuminated ceiling, a cream pearler, a hallroom and a court room. The costumes varied from sedate ringtails to the darling abbreviations of the modern night club, and the girls who wore them are beautiful and vivacious a group as ever danced to the applause of a theatre audience. The photoplay is George Fitzmaurice's super production, "Rose of the Golden West." It is a romantic melodramma of the early days of California. A wonderful romance, in a romantic Spanish atmosphere, threads its way through a story of intrigue and treachery which endangered the safety of Union. Every minute of this week's program at the Lafayette is well worth seeing. Alhambra Revue for This Week Full of Comedy Our Observer Gives an Earful and Also Tells of Next Week's Offering The "Stop! Go! Revue" at the Alhambra Theatre is a real comedy show, interspersed with real singing and dancing. Four of Harlem's prime comedians are in the revue, namely, Sam Manning, Slim Henderson, Roscoe Montella and Mantan. They do a variety of comedic sketches and a number of other big hits with the Alhambra audience. Sam Manning and Anna Freeman do an extremely funny sketch outlining the trims of a Wild West Indian married to a wild Harlem lady. Slim Henderson holds forth in a Harlem sketch, and it is worth a trip to the Alhambra to see the girls who play the sixteen complainable wives of a temperamental king. Roscoe Montella "stopped the show" with a humbling song, and Mantan did some of his famous accents did some of his admirable dancing. Giant, George Green, George Booker and the sixteen little ladies. The feature picture for the last half of the week is "Mary Lady's Lips," with Clara How, the "II" girl. This is one of the best Clara Bowie pictures, and the best of all. The attraction at the Alhambra for next week is "Popper Sauce Revue," which is now in rehearsal. Mr. Hayes, the musical director, and Mr. Cary, the dance director, promises that the revue fast, popper show of laughs, harmony and the kind of dancing that has made the Alhambra famous. The feature picture for the first half of next week is "Rearing Brannon," with Buffalo Bill Jr. There will be a midnight ramble Wednesday, of course. "RANG TANG" AT THE LAFAYETTE NEXT WEEK "Rang Tang," halled by some during its Broadway run as one of the greatest colored musical comedies ever produced, will be presented at the Lafayette Theatre next week—for one week only at the regular low Lafayette theater and Loyles will be with the show or not hasn't as yet been disclosed.

A dual theme is carried out, one indicating the she's unquenchable love for an artist, sick and in poverty; the other bearing on love for her child and the extremity spent time in museums to which a woman will go if her child is taken from her through trilogy and force. While the picture is one of essential drama in the reminable scale, the fashion element will also interest many women.

(Onlon) Jeffry Stanley Brown...Joe Chapman Policeman...William Edwards Dr. Strickland...Oliver Sanderson Mr. Harmon...George McBence Meek Mose," a comedy drama of Negro life written by a Negro and played by Negro opened first night at the Princess Theatre, Thirteenth street near Broadway, Monday night. Mayor Walker, Otto H. Kahn, Morris Gest, Paul Block, Ferdinand Q. Morton, Fred R. Moore and Ray Cometock were among the prominent patrons who sat in the audience. The Mayor placed his approval upon the show in glowing terms in an address to the audience. The play is built around the beatitude, the meek infant in the earth" and the dramatic raise hung upon this premise. The modern opposite belief in this idea clashes with the Negro's passivity as exemplified in Meek Mose Johnson, who believes all of his Bible and in waiting upon the Lord. The scenes are laid in Mexico, Texas, where the white folks have shunted the Negro from one location to another almost without protest. The majority of them decide to remain and fight it the oldest and the most respected Mose yields to the will of white folks. They move to the "gut" and are ravaged by disease and discomfort and they blame Mose and make an attempt upon his life. Through the efforts of Mr. Harmon, a white friend of Mose, oil is discovered in the "gut" and Mose and his neighbors become rich, thus proving, at least, that the meek do inherit the earth. The acting is excellent throughout, although a few rough spots must disappear as the play gets under way. The cast is composed mostly of the old Lafayette Players, who became famous Harlem years ago with the Quality Company at the Lafayette Theatre. Charles H. Moore and Laura Bowman gave the audience a fine exhibition of character work. Miss Ruth Ellis, a newcomer to the dramatic stage, was well received and honestly earned her. She has a great future. J. Lawrence, the modern fighting spirit of the Negro in his clever characterization of Nathan, a young Negro who feared nobody, not even the white folks. The supporting actors dovetailed their work with the main characters in Harlem and the whole performance was really having the Mayor come out to see it. The story, however, lacks sufficient depth, we think, to bring us to the theatre for the second time. We hope that it will have a liberal run, but we doubt it. It is, however, a very important step in the right direction. Josephine Baker Gets $10,000 Contract VIBENA, Feb. 6.—While the Vienna authorities were deliberating as to whether they would permit Josephine Baker to appear on the Vienna stage, it was announced today that a group of Budapest promoters had arranged a contract with her for one month's appearance in Budapest.

When a Baboon Laughs Being a Few Lines by the Author of "The Negro Actor's Deficit" Will you believe it? I actually laughed this week, thus. I hope, permanently, distinguishing myself from a baboon. The cause of my mirth was "a well-known man's" criticism of my article on the Negro actor which you were kind enough to print some time ago. I laughed, or, at any rate I smiled, because the remarks of "a well-known white man fetched me an enoughe- includes the Caucasian state includes limbectes. At least it includes one. Baboons, says "a well-known white man," do not laugh, and neither do highbrows. I wouldn't know about that. The baboons and highbrows will have to speak up for themselves. In my own behalf I will say that if "a well-known white man" would not put me in the category of those who "view the gayety of average mortals with a sour stomach." If there is any one thing I raved over in my article it was Roost兰 play "Cyrane de Bergeras." Doesn't "a well-known white man" that play is one of the world's most glorious comedies? Doesn't he know that even a man can make an audience raid with it? Incidentally, the hero chokes on long words of Greek and Latin origin. More about this: laughing business. My little boy, aged 45 years, can't use Byron's "Don Juan." He gets his fun watching the antics of the apes in Bronx Park Zoo and the somewhat less diverting monkeyhouses of colored comedians. That is as it should be. He is a child. For me to think the same thoughts and laugh at the same things would be aburd. Monkeys and colored comedians amuse me, but they do not entertain me. I get my own out of "An Enemy of the People," a play with plenty of laughs, and "The Importance of Being Ernest," a comedy with at least five guffaws a minute. Of course it is up to every man to keep his own level of entertainment, but it is hard to tell known white men" to assume that what is good enough for low grade white people is good enough for high grade colored people. Thanks for your remarks in my defense. It is gratifying to know that at least one responsible man is in sympathy with my desire for a civilized theatre. Your support encourages me to bolster that there is a place where we can opinion but have no means to express themselves except privately. fill her contract with Budapest managers, escaping payment of a forfeiture by pleading that she was under age. Nationalist members of the Assembly have protested against Miss Baker's appearance in public performances and the matter will be threshed out in Parliament the coming week.

ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M.D. WE HAVE read recently much about a certain baby born to a woman who desired to be the mother of a "eugenic baby." As I understand this particular modern woman's affairs, the father of her baby is not her husband. He is, however, a very healthy man—strong, vigorous, an Apollo. I suppose such a man could have a very healthy and perfect baby, provided the baby's mother was physically and mentally fit. I do not yet understand, however, why she did not get married to the baby's father. This, I suppose, is just as much her own private affair as the private affairs of many other people I know—the modern "Helens of Troy." Maybe she just wanted a "eugenic baby." and that is a very fine desire for any mother.

Torrey Woodrow Wilson Teacher Statesman Jessie Woodrow Warren C. Harding Editor Publisher Phoebe Dickerson Calvin C. Clardie Lawyer Official Victoria J. Moor From the discussion in the papers, and in the parlor, one gets the impression that to have a "eugenic baby" the father must not be the husband of the mother. Are all the married men disowned, or are all the single women healthy? I know many married people who have eugenic babies, and the mothers are the wives of the fathers. I know other married people who have "sorry babies"—congenitally sick and down and out. If more attention were paid by men and women to the physical and mental condition of their partners in married life, this world would have more ogenic babies. This little private affair is not well planned by most prospective brides and bridgegrooms. The baby is not thought of. Baby's looks, baby's strength and baby's brain are not figured out ahead of time. The biological end product of most marriages is made in hell rather than in heaven. I believe they say "love is blind." The result is that this world of ours is full of babies born in wedlock, but sick with congenital diseases such as syphilis, gonorrhoeal eye trouble, tuberculous susceptibility, Dermitual disturbances, epilapia and mental deficiencies. They are too than "war babies" and the Cobber with the parents. H. Schwartz who bring such babies Chris Catalea already heavily burdened. Bern Broth are to my mind much Economy Gr. the woman who de-velops Elizbethenogenic baby and seeks Alterowitz is healthy and vigorous not her husband for innocence is not her husband for Sapphire such a woman is not Her Grade by Grade by Grade the health of her baby their only fault is the shattering of conventionality. By all means let us have more eugenic babies and if they can be born in wedlock so much the better. Two plus two make four. This will always be so. So also will a healthy husband plus a healthy wife make a healthy baby. To Observe Birthday of Joseph Charles Price SALMSBURY, N. C., Feb. 4.—This Friday throughout the country the birthday of Joseph Charles Price, orator and educator, will be celebrated. This celebration will have as its center the Price Day Memorial exercises that will be held on the campus of the school that be founded, Livingstone College. This day is also a milestone in the $250,000 building expansion campaign that is named for the founder. Joseph C. Price was born of a slave father and a free mother in Elizabeth City, N. C., on Feb. 10, 1854. After matriculating at Lowell Training School and Shaw University, he later was graduated from Lincoln University as valedictorian of his class, winning all of the prizes in oratory. In recognition of his ability as an oratory, he was selected to speak at the "Documental Conference in London, where he distinguished himself." In England he collected a considerable amount of money with which he began the establishment of Livingstone College. He was cut down in the prime of his life in 1883 before he had time to do a good many things expected of him because of the most promising beginning that he had made. Bishop C. C. Aleyne of Gold Coast, Africa, one of the greatest orators in his church today, has been selected as the speaker of the day. Confidences Questions and Answers BY EGYPSY ANN A Sure Way to Lose Him Do you talk too much and at the wrong time? When "he" comes in, tired and cranky, do you annoy him with a lot of jabbering? The sensible woman knows the value of holding her tongue at the right time. When a man is worried and worn-out, the least little harmless word is likely to far him. Don't insist on telling him about some play you seen. Remember that while it may have been wonderful to you, it may prove extremely boring to him. Don't question him too much. He'll tell what he wants to, anyhow, and the more you question him the more reticent he'll be. He'll tell you he wants much more and will regard you as a real understanding pal. A Man Wants to Know I want to satisfy my curiosity on this point. I am a young man who has had many experiences with women. In all my lifetime I have known but one whom I could trust and she was only a child of 17. Women are so deceitful and treacherous. If they can't make a sucker out of a guy, they call him slow and dumb. Nearly every woman I know is trying to make some man think she's the only one, while she is handling the other, the same done. I would like to have a girl for my own one—whom I could be proud of. She doesn't have to be pretty, but I'd like her to be attractive and have a magnetic personality. I want her to have plenty of admirers, but still be true to me. Am I unreasonable in my demand? Are there any true women left? TOM K. Dear Tom K: My, but you've painted a touching picture! All men are martyrs and all the women are tyrants, according to you. There are heaps of women who would be true to one man. If they thought it was worth while. Why is it that a man honestly believes that he is privileged to gad about whenever the spirit moves him and yet he can have a conspiction fit when a girl turns her eyes in another man's direction? I know many girls who have found that they were being made fools of by placing all their hopes in one man. That's one reason why I am opposed to hasty marriages and engagements. There are many girls who are looking for a steady-minded man. Here's wishing them luck. Any number of sensible girls figure that, since men want them for what they can get out of them, they'll feel that way about it. too. You see, Tom, very few men can stand good treatment—and women know it! There are any number of girls who are trustworthy. If a woman really loves a man and she can trust him, she seldom wants anybody else. Sinceely, EGYPSY ANN. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, FEB. 8, 1928 My "Watch on the Rhine" Writer Tells of Early Status of Jewish Race THIS Rhine territory, as I said in the last article, has seen another great tragedy. Migrating here, largely because of persecution to the South, the Jews had built up a thriving commerce with the East, thus becoming one of the wealthiest people in Europe. Then came the First Crusade, with the proclaimed purpose of taking away the tomb of Christ from the Moslem. The leaders, of course, were really inspired by the prospect of plundering the rich but decadent Mohammedan Empire, but the masses, credulous as always, believed them. A wave of religious passion swept Germany, and fanaticism ran high. Godfrey de Bouillon, one of the leaders, denounced the Jews as enemies of Christ. He classed them as one with the Moslem, and swore to avenge the death of Christ on them. The Jews bought him off with a large sum, but the feeling against them had been wrought to such a pitch that nothing could save them. At Cologne, Mayence, Worms and other Rhine towns, the mob descended on the sons of Israel and massacred more than 12,000 of them. Later came the Second and Third Crusades, with massacres along the Rhine, as well as in the interior. But the worst was to come. In 1345 a plague known as the Black Death swept Europe. It was caused by the very unsanitary method of living, but the blame was laid on the Jews—although they suffered as much as the rest. They had again become wealthy. At Mayence 6,000 were slain; at Strasburg, 2,000; at Worms 400 were burned alive; at Colgune the unfortunate appointed executioners among themselves rather than fall in the hands of the Christians. Similar massacres followed all over Germany, spreading into Belgium and Switzerland. As I said in my article on Geneva, a Christian pastor, who was won over to the Jewish faith, was burned alive by the mob. After the fifteenth century the massacres ceased, but stringent restrictions remained. In the walked cities they could enter only by Jim-Crow gates; they were forced to live in ghetto; they were forbidden to engage in any other trade save the peddling of old clothes, and all professions, except the desplaced one of medicine, were closed to them. They were permitted to engage in the "This Freedom" If a man would be free, He must conquer his soul And all evil desires Must bring under control: For the man who will sway To his spirit refuse. Is far greater than he Who a nation subdues! If a man would be free, He must victory win Over arrogant pride, Over weakness and sin. His own愿望 must rule, And subjected maintain; Over body and soul As a monarch must reign! If a man would attain Unto freedom's estate, He must vanquish all those: Anger, malice, and hate, And must over them win Such a victory complete, Till at last they shall lie Humbly prone at his feet. If a man would be free, Ever this the test: He must conquer the foes; Dwelling in his own breast; From their ruthless domain, himself he can save, There can no power to the sun That can make him a slave. B. A. ADAMS An Unwelcome Single Moral Standard FOR many years we have condemned the double moral standard which discriminates unjustly and unreasonably between the moral shortcomings of man and those of women. Loud and emphatic have been demands of a single standard—one that would apply to both sexes alike. And now that we seem about to have Amsterdam News By J. A. ROGERS money-lending business, which often proved but a convenient method of plundering them. Now and then a ruler, like Wenceslaus, hard pressed for money, would declare all debts to the Jews cancelled on condition that the debtors would pay to the rulers about a half of the sum owing. In time, great Jewish thinkers like Moses Mendelssohn, arose and helped to create a better sentiment. In Berlin two Jewish women, Henrielle Hertz and Rahel Levin, founded salons to which came the most intellectual personages of the day—salons that JOHN B. HARRIS ranked with those of Madame de Pompadour and Madame de Mainton in intellectual quality. Today the million or so Jews in Germany have no legal restrictions—the last having been wiped out in 1870. All of the above information will make rather interesting reading to those who recall that it was a Jewish lad who led the mob against a similarly defensive and unaffectionate people at Springfield, Ill., about sixteen years ago. Our southern Jewish brothers might also reflect perhaps with profit on this bit from their history. Both banks of the Rhine are dotted with towns among them. In addition to those already named, there are also Bingen, Coblence, Bonn, Cologne and Dusseldorf. The most beautiful part of the trip is between Bingen and Coblence, almost every mountain peak on both banks being crowned with a castle. Many of these castles were the strongholds of robber knights, who would descend from time to time on the shipping, passing caravans and the townpeople. It was from just such a type came the exkarsers, the family, the Hahenzoilers, who continued until they became supreme. With the exception of one—Cattle Marksburg—all were destroyed by the armies of Louis VIV, King of France. Many of them have a single standard, we are greatly alarmed. We do well to be alarmed, for the process and the results are indicative of moral degradation and moral retrogression, instead of the moral progress which we so earnestly have been demanding and for which we have been striving. Under these conditions, the new order of things is more immediately and ultimately destructive than the old order from which we would escape. The facts are that womanhood is about to put into operation a single moral standard, not by bringing the man up to the one previously listed upon for women, but by the preparation of womanhood to the moral level of the man, whose standard has been so seriously and rightfully condemned. Do you doubt this? Do you consider this a false alarm? Then here is the evidence: 1. Women drink and get drunk, smoke and carouse, in public places just as mon, and call it their "new freedom." 2. Women gamble for high stakes, chot, rob, fuss, curse and sweep over their games just as men have ever done. 3. Women almost as common for women to break marriage vows and to be divorced therefor as for men. 4. Women are as indifferent to scandal and disgrace in sex affairs as are men. 5. Young women are as defiantly fragrant in their bobbinism as are the young men. 6. In many cases women, even of the better classes, take the lead in sex suggestions and in strategy necessary to accomplish their purposes. 7. Women augur ill for the present and worse for the future generation. It means what Will burnt calls "The breaking down of marriage"; destruction of the -J. A. Rogers- been rebuilt, however, white others were built later. Among the most imposing of these great fortresses are Rhainfels, which was blown up by the French revolutionist; Ehrenbreitstein, most massive of all; Ehrenfels, near Bingen; the Mouse Tower of Bishop Hatto, who, according to legend, was eaten alive by the rats after he had robbed the people of their grain and stored it in his castle; Stolzenfels, one of the forty-eight palaces of the ox-kalser, and Rheinstein, near Asmanshausen. Of particular interest to Negroes will be Castle Schomburg, from one of whose four huge towers was flying the American flag. It was built in the twelfth century, is the birthplace of Marshal Schomburg, and was destroyed by the French in the seventeenth century. If the Alice-Klo romance had not gone on the rocks, a Negro woman might have been receiving the German nobility there, as it is the property of the Rhinelanders. Many of these castles are open to visitors—a fine excuse for my returning some day, as I only gazed up at them. One of my thinking of the purpose of labor it took to carry up the materials to build these castles, some of which are perched on the vory edge of the cliff. Between Blingen and Cobence is also the narrowest part of the river, where it sweeps around the tall cliffs of the Lorelde. It is very dangerous for small boats, which run the risk of being carried by the current on to the rocks. It was in this spot, as I said in my last article, that was supposed to dwell the beautiful witch who used to lure gallors and fishermen to their death with her music. The scenery, very beautiful in this region, became rather ordinary a little further on, and I began to turn my attention to my fellow-passengers, most of whom were indulging in the ordinary German postmime—eating! After making all the allowances for the increase in appetite when traveling, I found I cannot travel where having made a trip and drinking. It was one long round start to finish. Well, thought l, it is due them after a hunger of four years. Going in search of my two friends, I found them in earnest conversation with another young man from Utah. He was a Mormon and was telling them about the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith, its writer. My friends seemed carried away with the marvelous doctrines of Mormonism, as he was expounding it to them, but, as for me, in all he said I saw but the same old doctrines that lay at the base of all other religions. In other words, it was the same old story being told with a different arrangement of the words. Besides, too, I had been a good deal, Utah. I had ample reason for it pretty much the same as all the other religions practiced in America. Presently we returned to our seats to find two of them occulted by ladies, who turned out to Thomas J. Bel Retires Thomas J. Bell, of Denver, Retires With Honor NO CITIZEN who has ever Colorado, was more seient fellow-citizens to farewell banquet which was Board of the Central Y.M.C. On this Board are some of the politics in the State, including Governor Sweet NO CITIZEN who has ever retired from work in Denver, Colorado, was more sincerely honored by his most eminent fellow-citizens than was Thomas J. Bell at the farewell banquet which was tendered him by the Executive Board of the Central Y. M. C. A. on Wednesday, Feb. 1, 1928. On this Board are some of the biggest men of business and politics in the State, including our good friend, the former Governor Sweet. It was an interracial luncheon, attended also by the leading men of the Negro race and served by the white woman of the staff at the Central "Y." Twelve years ago Mr. Bell went to Denver from New York and started with NOTHING to try to build a Y. M. C. A. institution and plant for the Negro youth of the western city. Such a thing is a discouraging prospect in the face of misunderstanding and prejudice, even if it be prejudice of the native and non-venomous sort, as might be encountered in a northwestern city. Bell worked and pleaded, not sympathized with by some of the whites and virulently opposed by some of the colored people. Now Denver has one of the best Y. M. C. A. plants and organizations in the country for its colored men and boys. The "Y" is, of course, a segregated institution, as practically all-American religion is today, but Bell has certainly made out of it the most beautiful "thing that could be made. Now, Mr. Bell has reached the home; an orgy of "Free Love"; the deterioration of womanhood; social clues; the ultimate disintegration of our moral superstructure; and the utter collapse of our civilization. It is said that for this condition of affairs womanhood is largely responsible, for women have the making of men. That women continued to live above men and demanded that they second, they would unambitiously have succeeded in bringing men up to the higher moral standard. This new higher moral standard, is unceased. It is more destructive than the double standard, because in the latter case we had the influence of womanhood to help manhood, while in this new arrangement both are work, and one cannot help the other. By WILLIAM PICKENS Discusses Jos. Smith and Doctrine of the Mormons he English women. We asked them to keep the seats and my friends, full of what they had just heard, began to tell the women about the young Mormon missionary and his doctrines. Presently, thinking of the surplus of women in Germany, I said, jestingly, that I thought Mormonism ought to be popular there. Then one of the ladies asked me what I thought of the historical authenticity of the Book of Mormon. I replied that, for my part, I placed almost as much historical faith in it as I did any other Bible, whether it was the Koran, the Talmud, Manu or any other of the holy books. I pointed out that, as Joseph Smith had said, as the young Mormon had said he had, that it was the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel who had built the splendid civilizations of South and Central America, and he did not know what he was talking about. I said that I much preferred to take the word of the scientists, who are saying that the builders of those civilizations were of Mongolian origin, as the scientists had at least done some investigation, while Smith had sat at his desk and spun his out of his own neurotic imaginations, Smith, as everyone knows, was semi-illiterate and a near-lunatic. I further said that all sorts of claims had been made about the Ten Lost Tribes; that some writers claimed they were the ancestors of the 'Anglo-Saxon race, whatever that was; others had gone to the other extreme and said that they were the Australian bushman, the lowest of all types. I added that it seems that the Ten Lost Tribes had been absorbed by the other peoples whom they had lived with. My questioner at once bridled up and wanted to know whether I meant to include the Christian Bible in the same breath with the bibles of the non-Christian religions. The former, she insisted, was the only true one, and began to quote from it to prove her contention. Anxious to avoid a religious discussion, I reminded her that some of the holy books of the Hindus were at least 3,000 years older than the Christian religion and asked her whether she thought the Hindus had the right to put their chief faith in their own writings. I offered the product of Christians in the lands of these so-called heathens," but I did not, and soon found a pretext to get away. But I was not to escape. Some time later I returned to my seat to find that a tall man of serious appearance, who had been listening to the first conversation, but had said nothing, was still there. He looked at me as if he wanted to speak. Finally I addressed him, to discover that he was from Salt Lake City, was one of theers of Mormonism in Germany, and had at least been getting my free opinion of his hero, Joseph Smith. (To be continued.) of Denver, With Honor M PICKENS I retired from work in Denver, severely honored by his most man was Thomas J. Bell at the endered him by the Executive on Wednesday, Feb. 1, 1928. It biggest men of business and our good friend, the former with by some of the whites and virulently opposed by some of the colored people. Now Denver has one of the best Y. M. C.

The "Y" is, of course, a segregated institution, an practically all-American religion is today, but Bell has certainly made out of it the most beautiful "thing that could be made. Now, Mr. Bell has reached the retiring age and will return East to live with his wife in New York. The resolutions which were prepared by a leading lawyer of Denver and voted unanimously by the executive board of the Y. M. C.

MAGAZINE PAGE Age-Old Superstition WE PAUSE here for a while to explore the pages of the past, to traverse the centuries and come upon the cradle of the human race, to observe how customs grew of fear, superstitions and the ignorance of early life; to find out how these customs have been woven into patterns that we moderns observe and accept. Strange to say, they have changed so little in the centuries between! By painstaking research, primitive ideas (buried in impenetrable nists of antiquity) have been revived and recorded in the history of etiquette. They tell us not only what to do, but why we do it. Try to imagine what society would be without customs. Your Horoscope By THEARCHER The birthday that begins with February $ is full of unexpected opposition from and disagreements with elderly people, especially for the children of today who are connected with the church or any public organization. There is an indication of much inventive skill. If these people will persevere in work or employment, there will be much gain. It would be a good idea for these people to avoid giving cause for criticism. The birthday for the ninth is slightly better in the financial aspect, and, although there will be nearly enough money to pay the bills, the outgo will be larger than the income. These people can gain more by sticking to the accustomed paths in business and employment, as new ideas and plans will certainly cause much expense if no other worry. Feb 10 begins a birthday year that requires discretion in love affairs. The opposite sex seems to have it in for the folks of today, and very few of the people of today will come through the year without a tiff, at the least, with the opposite sex. However, those who like to work will certainly experience a wonderful year, for employment and business are well favored. Elderly people will be of much assistance. The eleventh begins a birthday year that will prove slightly annoying in a personal way, especially from writings. There is an indication of some happiness through the marriage partner or sweetheart. These people are likely to experience professional or business interests. The year as a whole will be conducive to much benefit for the people of the twelfth, and if these people can learn to hear patiently small annoyances they will advance themselves a great deal. The best things will come through the development of the mental facilities. The thirteenth promises some interesting romantic development in the affairs of the people of today for the new birthyear. Romance will be the biggest event business. And now! Work and business are ever more important. Invoiced. It seems that those who are fortunate in love are unfortunate in business. Yet, it does not seem as if the people of today are going to be broke. These people of today will have an attractive and persuasive personality that may be very hard to resist. The people born around the seventh of June, and the week following, are now feeling the restricting influence of Saturn upon their plans, hopes and fortunes. They will be more than usually nervous and irritable, and the best way that they can mitigate this influence will be to take things quietly and be patient with what money that comes their way. Employment will be a source of dissatisfaction, but it would be best for these people to hold on for the present. These people should take care to avoid contracting cold; avoid making any investments, buying real estate, or seeking new business or employment. Ask some of the people born the week before the seventh. They know! Know New York State There are four million acres of waste land in New York State, and the present forest area is only half what it was in 1850. It is estimated that one million waste acres will be reclaimed by the planting of one billion young trees before 1940. Empire State banks in 1927 broke all records with increased deposits of six hundred million dollars. They now have aggregate deposits of more than six and a half billion dollars. New York City is said to consume nearly two billion eggs a year. It would take a hen, laying one egg a day, five million years to lay the city's supply for one year. New York State, the richest in total wealth, has a new capita wealth of only half that of Nevada, the poorest state in total wealth. There is an emergency call for an ambulance in New York City every three and one half minutes, or 148,663 calls a year. Of these, 5,462 are unnecessary. As much building was done in New York City in 1927 as in the nine cities next in size all together, and it amounted in value to nearly nine hundred million dollars. Man in his primitive stage foared more than he reasoned. He feared animals, the elements and his kind. He was cradled in a world of bowwildering hostility and he saw danger lurking in everything and everywhere around him. Out of this fear came the germ called superstition; in spread quickly and was as contagious as any infectious disease. Witch doctors, medicine men, magicians, sorcerers rode in, upon the crest of the superstitious wave and marched through the ages. Some of their superstitions are still prevalent and popular. Some of the good-buck omens originated among the savages about the fourth century A.D. "The lucky horseshoe," which dates back into antiquity, was used to avert evil. Some said it would drive away the evil eye; others said it was good luck because it resembled the crescent moon. The Irish say that the horse was in the stable where Christ was born and that the horseshoe was, therefore, given magical power. The four-leafed clover" is believed to portend fortune and happiness. The old legend is that Eve, upon being ejected from Paradise, took a four-leafed clover with her. In the seventeenth century four-leafed clovers were spread before a bride to insure her happiness A curious luck custom was "spitting." Spitlite was esteemed a charm against all evil, to avert the influences of witchcraft. Spitting on a coin was accepted generally as a method of insuring one's property against theft from others. Casting the tooth over the shoulder was a custom widely prevalent among children and grown-ups. Certain Australian and African tribes knock one or more of a boy's front teeth out at the ceremonies of initiation, to which he must submit before he is able to enjoy the rights and privileges of a full-grown man. At the same time, had-luck onions were originated. Some of the early superstitions, originally concerned with customs for resisting or destroying its influence, had survived and are still observed. Survivals have taken the form of bad luck onions, such as the black cat, the spitting of salt, the number thirteen etc. The most widespread of these is the unlucky number thirteen. Some explain that there were thirteen persons at the Last Supper. Judas being frequently represented as the thirteenth guest. However, we are inclined to believe that this notion goes back much further than the number seven is considered good luck. Among various early peoples, the seventh son of a seventh son was believed with supernatural powers. The black cat is the traditional companion of witches. Because of this old tradition the black cat has become an omen of misfortune and ill luck and a popular symbol of the follow quickly in the wake of the black cat that crushes one's path. Then we have the mincky day—black letter days, blue Monday, first Monday before Lent, Friday's moon. They say it was on Friday when Adam and Eve took of the forbidden fruit, but the early Christians, designing the pagan goddess and the sexual rites, ate the fish at their feast on Virgin's Day, Freya Day of Friday. The broken mirror is one of the most common of modern superstition; it is believed that it invites death or seven years' bad luck. An early belief was that one saw the will of the gods in the mirror and breaking the mirror was looked upon as an omen of death. There are many phrases which we use constantly in our conversation without knowing what they mean or how they originated. Some of these phrases have become "shung," although at once they carried an important message. We are old and interesting traditions behind most of these popping phrases. It was many of these phrases and superstitions that inspired Aesop, who is supposed to have lived about 620 to 500 B.C. to write his fables. He wrote about the animals, but mirrored in his tales are the doings and sayings of human beings. And the animals and sayings of his day are not so far removed from the doings and sayings of today.

The moment this famous, old reliable plaster is applied over the aching part it brings relief—warms, soothes, and drives the pain and misery almost at once.

Advertisement An Old Recipe to Darken Hair BY JANICE RANDALL Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly o e m pounded, are the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture it home, which is P Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyot's Sage and Sulphur Compound." You will get a bottle of this old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients for only 75 cents. Everybody uses this preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark thick and glossy and you look years younger. A Message to Underweight Men and Women The one supremely good health building tonic that is also the one great weight producer known to be the country over is McCoy's Tablets. Take them for a few weeks and the hollows in your checks, your neck and chest should soon fill out and whether you be man or woman you will find plenty of "get there" energy in just a short time. Many times the increase in weight is astonishing—one exceedingly thin woman gained 10 pounds in 22 days. McCoy takes all the risk—Reckoning for the risk of getting 4 sixty cent boxes of McCoy's Tablets or 2 One Dollar boxes any thin, underweight man or woman doesn't gain the weight you and completely satisfied with marked improvement in health—the your drugstreet is authorized to return the purchase price. The name McCoy's Cod Liver Oil appears often shortened—just ask for McCoy's tablets at any drug store in America.

"She" Turns Out to Be a "He" in Court Fur-Coated "Woman" Gives Cop Liveliest Chase of That "she" was a "he" was discharged early Saturday morning when Herman Barnes, 21, 85 Worth 134th street, was arrested by Patrolman Isherore Kolsky of the West 123rd street station, who said that "she" could run faster than any "woman" he had dressed as a woman, wearing a large, expensive fur coat, blue dress, black stockings and green slippers. He also wore a black-and-orange striped sweater. "She" was arraigned in Helghta Court before Magistrate McQuade, who sent "her" to the workhouse for a detention for adultery duct. At the police station Barnes was identified by Albert Lazarus, white, 1160 Hoe avenue, the Bronx, as the "woman" who had "lured" him to an apartment and robbed him of $24, at 117th street and Lenox 28, at 118th street. Barnes told the police that he only "associated" with white men. Barnes caused his own arrest about 3 m. m. on 117th street, near Fifth avenue, when Patrolman Kolsky happened to peer into his face. Barnes thought the officer was about to enter the house, and Patrolman Kolsky chased Barnes to learn why he ran. The "girl" darted into a house nearby and scaled the steps almost like a phantom. The impromptu Marathon led over the rooftops and Patrolman Kolsky cornered his prisoner on the roof of 52 Wost 117th street. He conducted the Marathon "female" to the police station and discovered that "she" was a "he." Lazurus, hearing that "he" is colored woman, had been arrested when the police station and identified Barnes as the "woman" whose promises caused him to lose his money. Barnes has been arrested twice before on charges of disorderly conduct — once for degeneracy, for a false fire of $10, and once for mourning as a woman, for which he served three months in the workhouse. Postal Inspectors Nab Costa Rican Accused of Writing Letter Demanding $25,000 in Smith Girl's Disappearance The arrest Friday night of Vivian Collins, 27, a Costa Rican, 161 West 140th street, gave a sudden and unexpected turn to the mysterious disappearance of Francis St. College student and a 90-year-old College student and for whom a $25,000 ransom had been asked for her return. Collins is a painter employed at 260 Valentine lane, Yonkers. The parents of the missing girl, living at 129 East Seventh street, had been asked by Robert Brown, who wrote that Miss Smith was with him and his sister. The letter promised to return Miss Smith to her parents provided they left $25,000 and a ticket to San Francisco under a Stromberg and 25th street and Broadway promptly at 5 o'clock Friday afternoon. Postal inspectors D. P. Looney and P. Bliss carried a specially prepared package to the spot at the hour appointed. A few minutes later Collins drove by in a Ford truck. He saw Collins climbed down, got the package and made off with it, the inspectors said. They commanded a passing truck and chased Collins for two miles and placed him under arrest. The Tombs Prison Collins denied being the author of the "Robert Brown" letters and as well denied any connection with the case. Collins explained that he saw a man put the package behind the sign and that he took it for safe keeping in case there was an award reported. Yet, it is not known how he reported it. Collins was when the package was placed there by the postal inspectors. "Inoculate Your Child Against Propaganda" "Send your child to college, but vaccinate him first," said Aubrey Bowser, a teacher at Public School 82, addressing the J. C. Price Lycamina at Mother A. M. E. Zion Church last Sunday. "Inoculate him against the institutional propaganda that leads to race-contempt and self-esteem, who despises his race cannot seem." The topic of the afternoon was Negro history. Mr. Bowser said that the white race proudly records its own history and suppresses the Negro's, that it is more than possible for a child to go all the way from kindergarten to college without hearing of a single distinguished person or a practice of making shurring remarks about the race in Negro homes in the presence of children. "You may think such slurs as triling as snowflakes," he said, "but remember that snowflakes make a little germ of typhoid if he multiplies it is multiplied. The child's susceptible mind drinks in your every word for good or ill and, by the alter accumulation and repetition of contemptuous remarks he may cause himself and himself. Never, under any circumstances, allow a shirring word of your race to pass your lips." Stabs Younger Brother With Screw Driver During a quarrel "over a family matter," Robert Alston, 18, 2640 Eighth avenue, was rendered unconscious early last week by being repeatedly stabbed with a screwdriver by his brother Leroy, 23. The youth's life was probably saved by the safety intervention of Patrol SAFE, who was 13 years old, who said he had to break down the door in order to save him. Alston was held in $3,000 bail for a further hearing when arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate McQuade. Patrolman Safer soffited that in the scuffle with the older brother he was cut on the left arm and fingers of the right hand. Robert was removed to Harlem Hospital suffering from sepsis and a black right eye. Leroy will be arraigned as soon as his brother is able to testify. Norfolk Honors Editor P.B. Young Praise 20 Years' Service to Tidewater District NORFOLK, Va., Feb. 6.—More than 100 representative citizens gathered in a testimonial dinner here Friday night to do honor to P. B. Young, editor of the Norfolk Journal and Guide, in recognition and appreciation of his 20 years' service to the Tidewater district as editor and citizen. Besides the local guests a number of prominent out-of-town persons joined in honoring Mr. Young. In addition to the speeches professionally praising him, his paper and his work, the editor was presented a handsome gold-headed cane, Dr. G. Hamilton Francis making the presentation speech. Mrs. Young, wife of the editor, who has been associated with him in business from his earliest start, was presented a huge basket of American Beauty roses on behalf of the University of N.Y., N. V. Nelley, grand daughter secretary of Daughter Elks, making the presentation speech. The principal address was made by Dr. John O. Plummer, prominent physician and surgeon of Raleigh, N. C., who has been a friend of the family from childhood of both Mr. and Mrs. Young. Speeches were made by B. Noble, manager of the Southern Ald Society of Virginia; Dr. G. Hamilton, Francis, president of the Business and Professional Men's Club of Norfolk; Mrs. A. M. Ward, president secretary of the United Order of Tents; Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett, musician; Dr. R. Allen Washington, Hampton Institute, and the Rev. R. H. Bowling. Sanul Ryan, taskkah shaufeur, 653 Lenox avenue, appeared before Magistrate Goodman in. Harel Court last Wednesday as complaint against two men whom he charged attempted to rob him at the point of a revolver. The prisoners gave their names and Regueul, 18, white, 515 East 1212, 1220, childeuon, 20, also white, 519 East 117th street. They were arrested after a chase by Policeman O'Connor, East 128th street station. In the possession of Regueul the policeman alleges he found a revolver. Ryan justified that he was driving when he was stopped at Park avenue he was stepped by the two men, whom he thought intended hit his car. Instead one of the men pointed a revolver at him. Ryan said, and demanded his money, Ryan screamed and they ran, being overtaken by the policeman who arrested them on charges of attempted robbery. Magistrate Goodman held the two mothers without ball for a further hearing. John E. Earl's Wife Granted Separation A weekly allmany of $8 and $25 counsel fees was awarded by Justice Edward J. Gleannon in the Supreme Court of New York County last Wednesday to Allice May Earls, 235th avenue, who had brought a separation suit against her husband, John E. Earls, a man well known in Harlem political circles. Mrs. Earls began her action through her attorney, J. Douglas Wetmore, 1440 Broadway, on July 15, 1927. She asked a permanent separation, allmany and counsel fee. The motion was made Jan. 10 and granted Feb. 1. At the same time Mrs. Earls commenced a suit against Mrs. Ilyanne Burton, 116 West 122th street, for alienation of her 122nd apartment, for collection of $50,000. Her suit Mrs. Earls alleges that Earls lived with Mrs. Burton after he left her on March 10, 1927. "Jersey Justice" UNION, N.

Before Buying Your Car History Week Fostered Here Splendid Program Arranged by Members of Research The Brooklyn Research Society held its usual monthly meeting at the residence of the vice-president, Silhouet N. Crichlow, 262 St. James place, on January 26. The members, keenly inspired by the preceding meeting and forthcoming events, came well prepared to take part in the discussion of the main items of the event's program. Of special interest was Mr. Crichlow's discourse on "Civilization: An Illusion," the context of which demonstrated the author's amazing powers of analysis and irony in the development of his subject. His tool was published in leading from Brownwell's "New Universal." Lionel Richardson offered some suggestive material from contemporary Negro posts, while Mr. Ira Gibbons philosophized on the morals of Sange. This being Negro History Week, the members have looked with keen interest, in celebrating the event. Short talks on Negro Life and History will be given by members of the society before various clubs and associations during this week. On Sunday, February 13, the society will hold an extraordinary meeting in commemoration of Negro History Week. On this occasion various high school and college students of the city will be invited to participate. Letters have already been sent to several of such students. The Negro an artist, the Negro an poet, the Negro an expatriate, the Inventor and spokesman will be discussed, also Negro labor in the United States, the Negro press, ministry and the professions. Negro History Week is a national celebration and is observed everywhere in the United States. It is directed by the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History of Washington, D.C., the purpose of which is to popularize the study of Negro Life and History and to secure more support for its promotion. This is the third effort this organization has to what the Negro has thought, felt, attempted, and accomplished. It is gradually tending to find its way into all parts of the country where persons have manifested an intelligent interest in the promotion of the whole truth. A more serious study of the significant facts of the race is urged by clubs and other organizations. In brief, the purpose is not to suggest less attention to the achievements of other races, nations, but rather to the Negro life and history. Persons particularly interested in the celebration should write to the secretary, Mr. Winston Gibbons, 328 Bergstreet.

The Negroes had no problems then to divide them into schools and factions, no division upon the questions of the ballot, of education and of economics; they had no ballot and no education to fight about. All energies were concentrated upon the struggle for emancipation, and Frederick Douglass personified that struggle.

Douglass's object was bodily emancipation; Washington's was economic emancipation. Douglass was a destroyer because destroying was in order; Washington was a builder upon the ruins of slavery.

His tremendous personal force, his fire and magnetism, his lion-like courage, all finding voice in the most wonderful oratory ever heard from the lips of a Negro, made him a figure never to be forgotten.

Professor Speyer PROFESSOR SPEYER of the University of Brussels, Belgium, says that the falling birth rate among the white people of this country and the growing birth rate among the Negroes will produce a grave race of the Uni- cium, says among the ry and the g the Ne- rave race PROFESSOR SPEYER of the University of Brussels, Belgium, says that the falling birth rate among the white people of this country and the growing birth rate among the Negroes will produce a grave race JACKSON EDITORIAL PAGE problem which must be faced in the future. PROFESSORS, like other men, are of many kinds. Some are keen observers and others see everything but that which is right before their noses. With all respect to Professor Speyer, America has had a grave race problem for exactly three hundred and nine years. And she means to keep it. If a group of war-impoverished European countries, in need of man-power, offered to take all the Negroes out of America and scatter them through Europe, America would fight before she would give them up. Lincoln and Destiny "NEW BIRTH of our new soil, the first American!" So James Russell Lowell described Abraham Lincoln, and he spoke the truth. Lincoln's predecessors, from the aristocratic Washington to the dainty Buchanan, were English in practice, if not in theory. Exception might be made for Andrew Jackson and Zachary Taylor, but in the main our statesmen were English-minded, as many of them are today. Lincoln, reared in the native wilds of his country, tempered and sweetened by the sorrows that could not break him, sealing the bondman's freedom and the nation's union with his blood, was the first real child of America. OTHERS had talked of liberty for themselves and their own class and bondage for others; Lincoln dedicated his life to freedom for all, for the ragged slave as well as the powdered aristocrat. To all men his spirit said: "I am a man and so are you." Frederick Douglass said that Lincoln was the only white man he ever talked to without being reminded of his color. IT IS DIFFICULT for Negroes to speak judicially of a man who brought them out of the house of bondage and the darkness of Egypt, who raised them from the condition of beasts to freedom, who made possible the blessings they now enjoy, blessings which none but a fool would underrate. Yet one may speculate upon what would have happened if Lincoln had not died when he did. Though granite-hard against slavery, his heart beat for the South as well as for the North, and his-primary object was to unify the nation. Would he have approved of the constitutional amendments giving citizenship and the ballot to the Negro, which were certain to enrage the South? Before the Civil War he had a plan for gradual emancipation extending over a period of twenty-five years, and he probably would have had a like attitude toward citizenship and enfranchisement, keeping the ballot from the Negro for thirty years or more. With all love for Abraham Lincoln, we ponder upon the destiny which took him off so suddenly. EXPRESSED BY OUR CONTEMPORARIES Lindbergh at St. Thomas (From the New York Sun.) Colonel Lindbergh is once more among his fellow countrymen, receiving deserved plaudits from the people of an outlying possession of the United States. His duties as an envoy of those who dwell under other flags are for a moment interrupted, but he has had opened to him a domestic diplomatic opportunity of importance. If his presence in the Virgin Islands is utilized to awaken his fellow citizens on the mainland to the neglected condition of those spots of natural lowlands and arouses the lawmakers at Washington to survey with remedial intent the plight into which acquisition by this country has placed the former colony of Denmark, he will have earned again the gratitude not only of the dwellers on those small but beautiful isles, but of their well-wishers in this country. It is not to the credit of the United States that through operation of our national laws the economic structure of this community has been torn down without effective effort to substitute another and satisfactory one for it. What Price Amalgamation? 1927 Editorials Rated Messenger Announces Standing of Negro Press in 1927 After twelve months of appraising the weekly editorials appearing in the American Negro press. The Messenger has announced the standing of the various newspapers. The standard adopted for testing the editorials was, briefly, as follows: AM reminded of this title by the "Negro History Week," which Dr. Carter G. Woodson has inaugurated and of which we are now in the midst of race-wide celebration. Several years ago Mrs. May Howard Jackson, the well-known sculptress, was building a plaster of paris bust of myself, which was hoped would be finally cast in bronze. She had already executed the bust of Dr. Francis J. Grimke, Dr. Du Bois, W. H. Lewis and other Negro celebrities. During the period of my sittings an ex-colored man, then passing for white, visited the studio and seriously advised the artist to take all of these colored likenesses, load them on an ashcart and dump them in the deepest sink in the Potomac River. The purpose of the artist was to mould these colored likenesses, entrap whatever of talent or genius her skill might be able to catch, and preserve them for future ages. She believed in the perdurability of the Negro, in his own likeness and in his own image. On the other hand, to the exclored man, the preservation of the Negro form and features was utterly preposterous. He affected to believe that the Negro was shortly destined to be swallowed up in the white race, and the sooner the better. If his philosophy was sound, then his policy was wise. I happen to know the circumstances involved in his experience. He had served for a number of years as a Negro professional man and had married a woman unmistakably colored. But, having been bitten by the "color" bee, he first put away his darksome helpmate and then proceeded to obliterate every feature of physical and social identity which tied him to his mother's race. He sought to be lost without trace. I once knew a light-brownskinned man to marry a perfectly white woman of colored parentage. By some strange sport of nature all of the children inherited the hair and color of the mother. The father died and was cremated. Although his achievements had given the family its only claim to distinction, the suspicion prevailed among the knowing ones that the cremation was resorted to in order to obliterate all remnants and reminders of the children's relation to the Negro race. I have in mind twin brothers of colored co-parentage. By the atavistic law the one was born brown, the other white. They grew up in as close intimacy as twins ever did. They were one and inseparable until full manhood maturity. It so happened that the darker of the twins possessed the finer intellectual and cultural qualities. The albicant brother seems to have inherited not only the hair and color but the bluntness and cultural indifference of his remoter white ancestry. The two brothers became separated for a period of several years. In the meantime, the whiter one made up his mind to cross the divide for certain obvious advantages. Upon returning to the city the brown-skinned co-brother found that hit frater- 1. Is the source of the editorial clearly indicated? 2.

Does the editorial accomplish the purpose it set out to accomplish? (This summing up is not to be confused with number 3.) The editorial pages of fifty principal Negro newspapers in the United States were carefully perused each month, one "best" editorial was selected and reprinted in The Messenger, while twelve other editorials were given honorable mention in the order of the excellence from one to twelve. In all, 156 editorials By KELLY MILLER nal half had crossed the line, married a white woman, and shifted his social affiliations. Many a time did they meet on the street, but never spoke as they passed by. The estrangement became deep, hitter and abiding. The price of transition was the denial of his own flash and blood. I could recount instances without number of this type and character, but these must surface to point a moral and tell their own pathetic tale. Those who believe that amalgamation is to be the immediate or early destiny of the Negro race in this land can cer- A. E. — Kelly Miller — tainly not cherish "Negro History Week." It must always be kept in mind that the advocated amalgamation is not the blending of two mutually agreeable groups, but the clandestine intrusion of the one upon the other. The white race socially despises the slightest dash of Negro blood and will tolerate only such homeopathic fraction as can be concealed under a white exterior. The Negro, if he enters at all into physical and social unity, with the white race, must do so as a thief and a robber; he will not be permitted to enter at the straight gate. The thief always shudders at his own shadow for fear he may be betrayed by some unconcealed circumstance in the committal of the theft. Such amalgamation sows the seed of internal bitterness and hatred. It puts enmity between the father and son, mother and daughter, mother-in-law against the daughter-in-law. The near-white daughter, ambitious to "pass," becomes ashamed of her own mother. Sister is made to hate sister; the father is put at enmity with his own son. Almost any one of my readers can draw from his own observation and fill out a list of several newspaper columns. I am not at this time condemning those who adhere to the described point of view or those who are willing to try the ordeal of transition. I am merely describing the necessary process. Each one must judge for himself whether the goal sought is worth the price exacted. At any rate, those who adhere to this point of view can have no enthusiasm for "Negro History Week." Another class who could have no genuine interest in Mr. Woodson's proposition consists of those who would eliminate the word "Negro" for fear of being reminded of the degrading background which the term connotes. The reasons alleged for the disuse of were selected. This work was done by Eugene Gordon, a Negro journalist employed as feature editor of The Boston Post, oldest and largest daily newspaper in New England. The standing rating of the Negro newspapers according to the excellence of their editorials during the year 1927 is as follows: # THE JOURNAL TOURS Name of Newspaper: 1. The Pittsburgh Courier. 2. The Journal & Guide. 3. The N. Y. Amsterdam News. 4. The Chicago Defender. 5. The Kansas City Call. 6. The Philadelphia Tribune. 7. The New York Age. 8. The Afro-American. 9. The Chicago Rescue. 10.

LETTERS this term are too silly to mention, except in the sense of ridicule. They say that "Negro" means black and that all Negroes are not black. Neither are all white men white, nor all yellow men yellow, nor all red men red. In the very nature of the case the term must be generic. A self-respecting race wants to be judged by what it is, not by what it is called. I had a dear friend who died believing in the fatuous folly that if we would but cease calling ourselves "Negroes" and designate ourselves "colored people" we would thereby enhance our appraisal in the eyes of our white fellow citizens. A race would be in a precarious condition indeed whose good repute depend upon the name by which it is known. But all of this shows the inferiority complex. It leads the race to despise its history, its vicissitudes, its trials and its triumphs to please the taste of others more favorably circumstanced. "Patsy" does not enhance her good looks by changing her name to "Lily," nor would "Lily" become less handsome if called "Patsy." I wonder if Mr. Woodson would be willing to change the title to "Colored History Week" or change the title of "The Journal of Negro History" to "The Journal of Afro-American History"? A recent issue of the American Mercury contains an interesting article by Eugene Gordon on "Negro Inhibitions." The chief point brought out is that, when the Negro is environed by white people, he is apt to develop the inferiority complex and become ashamed of his own achievements. He cites numerous instances which are more than apt to prove embarrassing when brought home. I am reminded that, at a national gathering of undoubtedly the most advanced group of the Negro intelligentsia in the world, certain of the merrier spirits in festive frolicsomeness began to hum some famous Negro ditty. This occurred in a fashionable white hotel in a far Northern city. The natives, who, by the way, were all migrants from the South, with fingers on lips, cautioned instant cessation, lest the white folks would hear. I suppose they wanted to make an impression on the eavesdropping white ears that they could sing in French or italian. There could be no Negro History Week under such circumstances. Unless the Negro, with courageous insistence, holds up to the idealization of the young the best attentions of the race, his soul will become self-stultified by alien idealism. Everything that he holds in art, science, literature and practical life is under the similitude of a white exterior. When he goes to the movies he finds every noble virtue portrayed under a white skin. If the Negro enters, it must needs be as a clown or as a flunky. The white artist can make no other use of Negro personnel. There is not to be found a Negro lady or gentleman in American literature with high qualities sustained to the end. The moving picture concession of an interracial prize fight has no commercial value unless the white antagonist wins. It is deemed unethical to portray to the public the Negro triumphant over a white man. The soul thrives by what it feeds on. If the Negro is perpetually fed on white superiority he will come to look upon whiteness as the symbol of superiority and blackness as the badge of reproach. A race that despises itself will be desplied by everyone else. On with Negro History Week! the year 1827 were as follows: January—"Not Proud of This Record." Philadelphia Tribune, Janu- ry 8.

Each "best" editorial was given a value of 13, and twelve "next best" editorials were given decreasing values, in the order of their selection, from twelve to one. The Messenger is continuing the monthly selection of "best editorials." The department is again in charge of Mr. Gordon. N. A. A. C. P. Activities A titled Englishwoman, Lady Mary Cook, of Doughty House, Richmond, Surrey, England, has asked consent of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People "to organize a benefit in London in memory of Florence Mills" in aid of the N.

C., April 22, 1882, the son of Dr. Edward McKnight Brawley and Margaret Dickerson Brawley. He received his education in the public schools of Nashville, Tenn. Brawley wa graduated from Morehouse College (then Atlanta Baptist College) with the A.B. degree in 1901, where he taught Englilh for several years. In 1906 he received another A.B. degree—this time from Chicago University. In 1908 he received his A.M. degree from Harvard. Brawley was a professor of English at Howard University 1910-12; dean of Morehouse College in 1912-1920, and is now professor of English at Shaw University. Brawley is a writer of much volume. Very few Negro writers have been as voluminous as he. Whatever he composes is always fresh and he is always well acquainted with his subject matter. His style is easy and is scattered hero and there with beautiful thoughts. He thrilled for beauty and he found it everywhere—in the little as well as the grand. Because his heart is full to overflowing, merry streams of verse come pouring out with sweet music. His poems are superior in nature and tone. And they show finish, craftmanship and good moral significance. As a poet, he reveals a wealth of luxuriant and elegant spontaneity. His diction is dignified and his themes are always lofty—and adorned by rich fancy. To read Brawley at times considering the proposal, cabled its authorization. An investigator for the association has just returned from the city of Little Rock, Arkansas, investigating the unpunished mob hanging and burning of John Carter there last May, reports that many colored people have left the city and that brutalities practised against Negroes, including the killing of an aged Negro by two white boys as "a lark," have since then gone unpunished. Returning to this city after a recent tour of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois and Wisconsin, Robert W. Bagnall, director of branches of the association, reports finding increased assurance among colored people, greater power through their organization, and a determination to make themselves felt as a political voting block. R. R. Taylor, vice-principal of Tuskegee Institute, has contributed $25 to the association. "The work of your association is so far-reaching and important that I do not look on it as an act of generosity but one of duty which every one of us should perform. I am very glad to make this contribution," he wrote. James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the association, has conferred with Congressman George Holden Tinkham of Massachusetts on the resolution calling for an investigation of disfranchisement of the Negro in Southern States. The resolution is to be vigorously pushed in the present Congress and Southern legislators given full opportunity to explain how the Fifteenth amendment of the Constitution is being nullified at a time when they are demanding more rigorous enforcement of the Eighteenth amendment. MUSIC Mrs. Nellie Moore Mundy, pianist, and Minnie Brown, soprano, gave their lecture-recital on "Folk-songs of the American Negro" before the Twentieth Century Club of Richmond Hill last week. This club is composed of a group of prominent white women in the literary and musical world. Miss Brown also sang over WBRS last Friday. Miss Andrudes Lindsay was the accompanist. Penman Lovingood, tenor, has accepted the position of soloist at St. Mark's M. E. Church. The Hall Johnson Jubilee Sugars, assisted by Abby Mitchell, solist, will be heard in a recital at the Embassy Club, 151 East Fifty-seventh street, at 4:30 on Sunday afternoon. The list of patrons and patronesses includes Efrem Zimbalist, Princess Rospilosit, Mrs. Jay Gould, Miss Jane Cowl, Paul D. Cravath, Miss Mary Hoyt Wiborg and others. Homely Philosophy BY GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON Sheep SO many people resemble sheep — harding together and moving along without other thought than to follow the crowd. Pale, apathetic, lacking in vigor and prowess — they vegetate. Revell your life. Are you among the grazing sheep—do you live from day to day supinely? Do you lack the thrill of daring to do—daring to step out—daring to make an unhoard of goal? If so—take yourself to task, swing out of the stifling mob and learn to walk alone, erocet and unfaithful.

The emotions which he portrays are the most impassioned known to our nature—his descriptions at times are unparalleled, transcendently lovely, but sediment soothing and inviting. The serene middle path was rarely trodden by his muse. Our pulse beats faster as we follow him through peaceful chapters, but we are not won by those gentle and sweet fancies which make us forget the means in the end. Whatever may be said of Brawley's work—good or bad—he remains, upon the whole, the foremost voluminous figure in poetry and prose in Negro America. As an example of his poetic ability, I am singling out at random a short poem entitled "The Plan". Far above the strife and striving And the hate of man for man, I can see the great contriving Of a far more than human plan. And day by day more clearly Do we see the great design, And day by day more nearly Do our footsteps fall in line. For in spite of the winds repeating The rule of the lash and rod, The heart of the world is beating With the love that was born of God. His sphere is the visible which he renders with equal opulence and precision. He is certainly not a realist between the object and the representation; not thought nor passion, but the aesthetic emotion always intervenes. He sees life as a work of art, sumptuously framed. Of his other works in prose the most remarkable (purhaps the most remarkable of all, if originality of conception and breadth of design be taken into consideration) is his book "The Negro in Literature and Art" (1910). The book is useful both to laymen and students. And although it is not comprehensive and it complete enough, yet it is the first in the field of Negro literary criticism. It has a useful biographical section. It is both a critical and biographical book with portraits of nearly all the authors mentioned. The criticism is fair and sensible. It should be possessed by the masses of Negro readers. Last year Brawley published "A New Survey of English Literature." It was received with favorable criticism. His subject is well treated and his style is simple. His morals as a writer have been already indicated, and his defects may be easily divined, even from this brief notice. He is always adroit, often eloquent, sometimes remarkably clever; but he is seldom other than artificial, never always passionate, but generally sublime. His published books are: "A Toast to Love and Death," 1928; "The Problem and Other Poems," 1904; "The Desire of the Mouth for the Star," 1911; "The Dawn and Other Poems," 1911; "The Seven Sleepers of Ephesus," 1917; "A Short History of the American Negro," 1913—revised 1919; "History of Morehouse College," 1917; "The Negro in Literature and Art," 1918—revised 1926; "Africa and the War," 1918; "New Era Deckamations," edited, 1918; "Women of Achievement," 1919; "A Social History of the American Negro," 1921; "A Short History of the English Drama," 1921; and "A New Survey of English Literature," 1925. THE POETS' CORNER Poems submitted for publication in "The Poet's Corner" will not be returned unless accompanied with a self-addressed and tamped envelope. YOU came like wind The life-begetting. You went like fame At the sun's setting. You are swift as Time The unregretting-- But Time will be dead. When I'm forgetting. --Elizabeth Hollister
