Blount was shot four times by a white man early on the morning of May 27 in front of 134 Haven avenue, after he had been lured to the spot, the police said, by Gladys McCarver, 25, a brunette white woman, and who was said to be one of Blount's erstwhile flames. But yet the blame was fixed upon a blonde woman by the police upon the description they were given by a taxi driver, James Wolf, white. West 168th street, who told his story to Magistrate McQuade in Heights Court on Monday. The case against Blount was dismissed. Mrs. McCarver was incarcerated without half since her voluntary surrender to the police four days after the shooting. The police reported that she told them a story of Blount's beating her with a strap and buckle and of having had improper relations with her. Blount was then arrested on charges of rape and felonious assault and released under bond of $2,500, although he was still confined to his lot in Columbus Hospital. In court Monday, Blount, who in reality never made a complaint against the white woman, even to the point of once denying that he ever knew her, told a very bright, funny and twisted story of the affair.

C., June 25—A sub-committee of the Republican National Committee will be appointed to hear the contest between Benjamin Jefferson Davis of Atlanta and Joseph H. Watson of Albany Ga., for the National Committeemanship for Georgia. James Francis Burke of Pittsburgh counsel for the committee At one point of his story he relied having been shot twice in the groin and then running around Wolfs cab in a game of hide-and-seek with his assailant, who finally cornered him and fired twice again. He said he had gone to the scene with a blonde white woman and not a brunette and that Mrs. McCarrer was never in the car with him that morning. The story told by the taxi chaute four and the arresting officer, who said he got his narrative of the affair from the lips of Mrs. McCarrer, agreed in nearly every detail. Anyway, the case against the woman was dismissed also. The white man who did the shooting has not been apprehended. He is said to be a hostleggar and the son of a prominent Buffalo merchant.

Move Seen to Oust Georgia Leaders White Man Slated to Head G. O. P. in Georgia WASHINGTON, D. C., June 25. A sub-committee of the Republican National Committee will be appointed to hear the contest between Ben- jamin Jefferson Davis of Atlanta and Joseph H. Watson of Albany, Ga., for the National Committee- manship for Georgia. James Francis Burke of Pittsburgh, counsel for the committee, made this announcement following the meeting of the special committee of the National Committee here last Thursday. No date was set for the appointment of this sub-committee or for the hearing. The announcement of this procedure has given credence to the report that has been circulated since the adjournment of the Republican National Convention in Kansas City June 15. This report is that the party leaders plan a coup to make a white man the National Committee man for Georgia instead of a colored man. Fear of causing a defection in the ranks of colored voters in the November election, however, makes it unwise to attempt any such move at this time. Postponement of action until after the election will afford the opportunity for the carrying out of this intention without any damaging reaction. The white man who is said to be slated for the post is Joseph T. Rose, Collector of Internal Revenue at Atlanta. After the meeting of the special committee, Mr. Burke also stated that the election of Mrs. George S. Williams as National Committee woman for Georgia had been ratified by the convention and there is no question regarding her status. Until a National Committeeman is selected for Georgia, Mrs. Williams has been assured by Dr. Hurbert Work, the new Chairman of the National Committee, that all matters pertaining to the Republican party in Georgia would be referred to her. Tribal Superstition Dooms Man to Death DURBAN, South Africa. — The tribal superstition of the Zulu people caused them to murder a deprived native because it was thought that he was "M. Tagatl," traditional dispenser of death, disease and misfortune. A young Zulu was convicted and sentenced to die while two others were exonerated for lack of evidence. The murdered man had been acting queer and had been noticed wondering about at nights in reduced clothing. Word went forth that he was "M. Tagatl," and, consequently, he was marked for death. The body of an "M. Tagatl" is highly prized as food by the natives, who believe that, by eating it, they will acquire some of its powers of witchcraft. THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News Roscoe Carter, 20, an unemployed laundry worker, who lived at 11 East 113th street, was sentenced to a definite term of forty years in prison by Judge Albert Cohen, in Bronx County Court Friday, on his plea of guilty to a charge of assault in the first degree. Carter attacked Miss Alice Duffy, a white maid in the home of Mrs. Emily Lowenstein of 1020 Gerrard avenue, the Bronx, at 164th street and River avenue, last Sunday week, while the girl was walking home from a subway station.

Age 15 An affectionate letter that a 15-year-old girl, who eloped with a 36-year-old man, sent to her mother, asking forgiveness and a blessing, resulted in the arrest of the couple. The husband, Robert Lee Brown, 146 West Fifty-third Street, was arraigned on a charge ofduction before Magistrate Goodman in Harlem, Friday, and held in $2,500 bail for a further hearing. The young wife, Mrs. Ella Morsell Brown, was charged with being wayward and was turned over to the custody of the Children's Society. Ella's mother, Mrs. Mary Morsell, lives at 235 West 126th street. She charged Brown with marrying her minor daughter without permission of her parents. Brown first met the girl, Mrs. Morsell said, when he was a roomer in her home. Brown moved out on Mar 1, Mrs. Morsell said, and the same day Fila disappeared. They went to Newark, where they were married. The couple then went to live at 116 West Fifty-third street.

No clue to their whereabouts was uncovered until last Thursday when Mrs. Morsell received a letter from her daughter asking forgiveness and a blessing. The letter was turned over to the police and Detective Kammeler of the West 123d street station located them at the Flitty third street address and arrested them.

The weapon was thrown down the dumbwaiter shaft, but only the magazine was ever found, it is reported.

With the odor of the atrocious lynching of Robert Powell in the nocturna, the convention will get under way later this morning. Powell was taken from a hospital where he was dying and hanged from a little-used bridge eight miles from town early last Wednesday morning. K. K. K.

Age Loses to Youth in Slaying Head of Man Almost Severed in Row Over Woman The love of a youth and an old man for a 35-year-old woman was said to be responsible for the youth nearly cutting off the head of the old man with a knife during a quarrel over the object of their affections about 8 o'clock Monday night. A telephone call brought Detectives Winterhalter and Boyden from the West 135th street station to the scene of the killing, and they found Cherry Crump, 67, lying dead in the hallway of his home at 36 West 132d street, his head nearly severed. The young murderer was said to be Henry Tolly, 20, a roomer in the same house, who escaped after the tragedy. The scene of the crime was the private residence of Marie Harris.

Police Say This Condition Is All Too Prevalent in This Community A death struggle between two women for the love of another woman brought into the spotlight recently a condition, the police say, which is all too prevalent in this community. The dead woman is Edna Washington, 28, who lived with Albora Mitchell, 24, at 33 West 136th street. The police accuse the Mitchell woman of stabbing the Washington woman to death last Tuesday night in their home, which was completely wrecked by the death struggle. Their object of affection was said to be Beatrice Ray Arvis, 24, 16 West 128th street, whom the Mitchell woman first accused of the killing and who was held as a material witness. Neighbors told the police that they heard violent quarrelling in the apartment around 9 o'clock, at which time the woman was killed by a fierce knife thrust in the neck. About five hours later Zena Tate and Emma Barrett, both of 36 West 136th street, called at the house and learned of the tragedy. They notified the police and Detectives Boyden and Winterhalter came on the scene and found Miss Arvis weeping and mourning while the Washington woman lay on the bed in a pool of blood. The windows were broken, furniture smashed, dishes dashed to bits and everything in a general state of disorder. The Mitchell woman was not around.

When he asked to see the records the reporter was referred to the Medical Examiner's office. In an interview with Brown, who is fifty-seven, in his basement home, where Peters was a roomer, it was revealed that the cutting was caused by an argument over twenty cents Peters refused to pay to Wade during a card game. Brown said Peters was cut more severely on the upper arm than on the forearm and that his arm was actually split open.

Peters was admitted to the hospital at 10:55 a.m. Saturday and Dr. Salero states that the Peters was treated at once in the hospital, but that further treatment was found necessary two hours later, and the man was removed to the operating room and treated. At 3:50 a.m. Peters died an unnatural death and the Medical Examiner was notified. After an autopsy upon the body it was reported that death was caused by poisoning. Dr. Salero emphatically denied treating Peters, although the records bear his name as having treated the case. He explained that, according to the routine, such was his duty, but that, instead, Dr. Polumbo and Bakkler treated Peters. Dr. Polumbo was interviewed and he passed the case to Dr. Bakkler, the reporter was unable to see. Dr. Polumbo was attitude was discontentous in that he spoke unruly and turned and walked hastily away. The reporter explained to Dr. Salerno that he had received reports that citizens coming to the institute for urgent treatment had suffered neglect. He branded the reports as false and added: "The people really don't appreciate what we do for them." Reporter Hears Threat Dr. Salerno said that very often the doctors there were cursed by accident patients while they were being treated and that they suffered other abuses. "But we don't care being treated and that they suffered one way or the other. The people continue to come here, anyhow." "Yes, but they are attached to the beat you can give them," the reporter replied. "You may no care what we say about you, but when we find anything here we'll hit it and it hurt." "So that's the way you feel?" said Dr. Salerno. "Well, don't forget, you might come in here yourself some day and it might fall into my hands and it may not be so good for you." His face had an angry look. "Would you stoop so low as to neglect your professional duty by seeking revenge in that manner?" The doctor did not answer and the conversation turned to discussion of the Maynard-Marshall incident of a year ago when a white intern at Harlem Hospital dashed a glass of water in the face of the colored house surgeon. A full and accurate account of the matter appeared in The Amsterdam News at that time. Dr. Salero thought that was important enough to write about" asked Dr. Salero. "We certainly did" replied the reporter, with emphasis. Dr. Salero walked away, signifying that the interview had been definitely ended. he called the superintendent of nurses, Saddo O'Brien, who addressed the reporter, saying no information to the press and if you desire any you will have to see the president of the board of managers.

Houston, presumably for a conference with the titular head of the organization, Dr. Hiram Wesley Evans. Just what are their intentions still remain a mystery, but the theory has been advanced that they intend to thwart the nomination of Governor Smith for President. The Lynching Robert Powell, 24, is alleged to have been in a crap game which was raided by Detectives Davis and Bradshaw. There was an exchange of shots and, after the excitement had abated, Davis was found dying in a pool of blood and Powell was later found at home with a bullet in his side. A loaded gun with one cartridge empty was also found in Powell's home, and his brother-in-law conceived and gave it to him to hide. Congress was placed under arrest and removed to the Jefferson Davis Hospital for treatment. About 3 o'clock last Wednesday morning a lynching party, which included A. B. Whealer, 27; John Kent, 27; Charles Oldham, 24; P. T. Schack, 32; Tack Reese, 55; Hubbard, 32; and Howe, 19; drove up to the lynching cars, overpowered Deputy S. Y. Q. Britzenbline, all white, entered the Negro ward of the hospital and, after dismissing Jackson McCarter, an orderly, dragged a rope around Powell's neck and dragged him out of his cot and to the cars. He was bundled in one of them and was dragged to the bridge, where one end of the rope was tied to the railing. Powell was then ordered to walk to the edge of the bridge and then pushed off. The rope was too long and his body hit the ground. The murders immediately dragged him up again, shortened the rope and pushed him to the bridge a second time. On this occasion his neck was dislocated. The seven men, who, so far as is known, were implicated in the lynching, have all been apprehended, except Bubber Kent and Howard Milton. The Harris County Grand Jury has indicated them all and the entire police force is on the lookout for the two who are still at large. The Houston Committee on Interracial Co-operation, with two Negroes as members, has been given an appropriation of $10,000 by the City Council to aid it in bringing the lynchers to justice. Know New York State When the British in 1664 took over New Netherlands from the Dutch, the entire white population of the colony was 12,000, and by 1700 it had reached a total of only 20,000.

The delegates to this convention will meet Friday to organize. William McRilburn, McRilburn member of Brooklyn Lodge, who has been endorsed by the lodge for the Woman Repudiates; Bess Back in Jail Man Had Been Pardoned After Serving 10 Years of 30-Year Term COLUMBIA, S. C., June 25—Sentenced to thirty years' imprisonment for an alleged assault upon a white woman and pardoned after nearly thirteen years upon the sworn statement of the woman herself that she was innocent, Ben Bess was put back behind the bars Friday while state officials considered what could be done about a parion issued under the law. Taking the woman's affidavit in good faith, Gov. John G. Richards said he felt he could not have acted otherwise, but now she declares in another, second affidavit that she never intended to say Bess was not guilty. She cannot read or write, beyond signing her name, and says that in the original instrument she intended to have Bess pardoned. Bess and thought that we what the document said, when she, signed it. The second affidavit was presented in the course of a Grand Jury investigation ordered by Gov. Richards. The jury reported that there was "nothing in the evidence" to support the contention made in Bess' appeal for clemency that he had been wrongfully imprisoned. The county authorities have referred the governor and the Attorney General of the state asking advice as to what steps should now be taken. The pardon, which was issued two months ago, is held to be irrevocable, and it is contended that to bring Bess to trial again would constitute "double jeopardy." Meanwhile, Bess was confined at the state penitentiary, for fear of mob violence, after the report of the Grand Jury. A warrant charging that he attacked a fellow prisoner has been issued against him, and charges of misconduct while in prison, the county authorities believe, will be sufficient to keep him in custody until all aspects of the case have been subjected to a searching inquiry.

Books Contain Advertisements of Unknown Sex Secrets Nine of Eleven Publications of National Baptist Publishing Board Present Obnoxious Products to Unsuspecting Youth of Church Advertisements of black cat wishing bags, underground treasures, magical herbs, unknown sex secrets, instant whiskey cures, lodestones, charms and the like are contained in a number of magazines published and circulated by the thousands of bariatist Sunday schools all over the country. Baptist Church A thorough examination of eleven Sunday school and B. V. P. U. publications of the National Baptist Publishing Board, Nashville, Tenn., of which Henry Allen Boyd is secre- tary, with but two exceptions, carry these obnoxious adver- tisements. One example was that of the Beginner's Quarterly, published, pre- sumably, for Sunday school children, which failed to exhibit any adver- tisements of the mentioned type. Naturally, it is assumed that the young- sters are not expected to understand the meaning of a black cat wishing bag; neither are they supposed to find hidden underground treasures even if they were handed a chart marked X and a list of in- struments as to how to proceed. Another instance was that of the Church Executive, devoted to the administrative problems of the Baptist Church and responsible for the guardians of the Sunday school school administrators, administrators and other church dignitaries. $160,000 Subscribed For Livingstone Announcement Made at New York Conference of A. M. E. Zion Church A total of $160,000 has been se- cured toward the goal of $250,000 now being raised in a drive by Liv- ingstone College, Salisbury, N. C. it was announced Thursday by Dr. A number of ruffled ones have advanced the supposition that exception was made in this case because church executives are, logically, graduates of the junior departments and have consequently had an earlier opportunity to acquire some of the riches, fame and success so liberally offered in a number of these advertisements. Nevertheless, the other magistrates the extravagance of the offers seem to be insulting to the intelligence of Negro people everywhere, especially when presented under the same covers that present the life story of Jesus. It may be interesting to the reader of this article to know that by sending $2.95 to a Chicago concern he may obtain a black cat wishing bag guaranteed to bring to its owner luck, riches, happiness and success. The bag is advertised as a magic sand, incense, oriental perfume and two extra large pieces of genuine lode- Besides the above the company that is making this liberal offer will also send you tree of charge a lucky-book containing so-called lucky numbers, lucky secrets, lucky days and a mass of information as to how to acquire a lot of sweatshirts, and to attain perpetual health and wealth. Another advertisement that may interest you is that of a mystic perfume guaranteed by the advertiser to secure the love of any woman, provided that the gentleman who intends to use it will spray a few drops of the perfume on his hand and start it on the face of anybody's sister, sweetheart or even his wife. There is also an advertisement guaranteed to stop whiskey habits. However, if you are not interested in lucky charms and the like, you surely would not pass up a chance to discover a lot of underground treasures. Another company, also particularly as to how and where to find them. The Sunday school lessons contained within these eleven magazines are a direct contrast to the advertisements. As a matter of fact, they bear a marked resemblance to the Sunday school lessons taught in other Christian churches which, after all is said and done, teach one not to covet his neighbor's wife or property. Woman Dies of Acute Alcoholism Too much stew of the Volstead kind is said to have caused the death of Lillian Johnson, 22, who was found dead in her furnished room at 2733 Eighth avenue, near street, late Monday night, 106 K. by afford. linda Tailor, 22, East Ninth Street, street. An autopsy of her body revealed that she had died of acute alcoholism. Miss Johnson was brought home by a man who was said to be known as "Big Boy" and three other men, explained to Mrs. Mabel Council handily, that she had been imbibing much too freely of the remote savage, sometimes called hostile men. After she was found dead, Detective Scott of the West 35th street station was notified and while searching the room for clues, one Timothy Flowers walked in and made himself at home. Flowers had been occupying the room for two weeks, the detective was told. He was questioned and tried to have no connection with the man's death. Her body was removed by City Morgue by Dr. Prizzo of the Hospital. The only mark upon her was a gash under one eye, said Medical Chamber Norris. $160,000 Subscribed For Livingstone Announcement Made at New York Conference of A. M. E. Zion Church A total of $160,000 has been secured toward the goal of $250,000 now being raised in a drive by Livingstone College, Salisbury, N. C. it was announced Thursday by Dr. W. J. Trent, president of the college, speaking before the 107th session of the New York Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church, which opened last Wednesday at Mother A. M. E. Zion Church. The conference closed Sunday night, at which time the appointment of ministers was made. About 200 delegates attended the conference.

Duke estate. Various Negro civic organizations contributed $0,000, he said. At the opening session the delegates contributed $500 to start the ball rolling. Negro education is being stressed as never before in order to train members of the colored races to compete on an equal basis with white men and women, Mr. Trent said in a talk on "Negro Education." "Livingston College, which has already achieved an A rating, is doing better in educating girls to get along better with their white neighbors. "One of the most encouraging signs of our times is the interest which our white neighbors have in the campuses of Negro education. John D. - Rockettler, Julius Rosenwald, B. N. Duse and many others who have contributed to our drive have also expressed their praises and well-wishes for this work. Shah A. C.

Two men they are said to have admitted the crime. They said they were George Taylor, 22, 13 Arlington street; Charles Dodson, 42, 113 Broome street, and Arthur Matthews, 30, 175 Broome street, all of Newark.

Two Men Accused By Girls in Court Charge of Rape Changed to Impairing Morals of a Minor The charge of rapo against James Whitehurst, 66, 248 West 144th street, was changed to impairing the morals of a minor when Whitehurst was arranged in Helghts Court Thursday before Magistrate Stevens. The court ordered Special Sessions following the narration of the story of the elderly man's alleged attack upon an eight-year-old girl. Whitehurst was arrested by Patrolman Dash of the West 135th street station on Sunday, June 17, when the child's mother approached him on the street and told her story. Whitehurst was arrested in the 144th street address, she said, but had left her daughter's doll and carriage in the old man's apartment and often sent the child around there to play. On June 14 Whitehurst attacked the child, she said. When subsequent examination of the James Society's physical indications of physical assault, the rape charge was changed to impairing morals. Whitehurst denied the charge. Accused by Stendaughter There was much weeping before the bar of justice on the same morning when John Loggs, 87, 103 West 143d street, was arranged on the accusation of assault on the schoolboy schoolmate. According to Officer Rodrick of the Children's Society Loggs admitted having had improper relations with the girl a number of times. However, he repudiated his alleged conspiracy, who held him in $1,800 ball for a further hearing today. Now it is remarkably easy to have a lighter, lovelier, clearer skin.

A-383, Atlanta, Ga. DR. FRED PALMER'S SKIN WHITENER Mr. Rockefeller's gift will be used in two projects: the establishment of a children's recreation center and non-commercial cafeteria in the Utopia Children's House to provide hot lunches for the children of this community, where a large number of employees are employed away from home throughout the day, and the establishment of a community center for the Columbus Hill District in the Hirnleitra School Building of the Children's Aid Society, at 224 West Sixty-third street. The projects will be administered by the Children's Aid Society, a voluntary committee from the Harlam and Columbus Hill communities. The center in each case will be under the direction of a Negro. The plans for these projects and the grant from Mr. Rockefeller are the direct outgrowth of the study of "Delinquent and Neglected Negro Children in New York City" conducted last fall by a joint social cooperation with the Urban League and the Women's City Club. This study revealed that the number of mothers forced to abandon home duties for outside work is four to five times as great among Negroes as among the white population, and that the family life of the Negro was being broken up by popcrowding, rent exploitation and the non-commercial recreational facilities. Concerning the situation in the Columbus Hill district the Welfare Council's committee reported: "Approximately 60 per cent of the total population is colored, many of whom come from the West Indies, Cuba, Central and South America. Congestion of population and wretched housing are areas that promote amenity to the health, morality and well-being of the residents. In addition, many mothers, for economic reasons, are obliged to work outside of their homes, leaving their children without care and supervision. This, coupled with the absence of facilities or play and the wholesome time, tends to increase the prevalent neglect and delinquency." Concerning Harlem, the report on "Delinquent and Neglected Negro City" said: "The increase in the number of Negro children in the court may be attributed, in part at least, to the increase in the No. 1 juvenile court and to the slow development of preventive programs and child welfare work generally among this group." The house in which the cafeteria for the children of Harlem will be established is owned by the Utopia Neighborhood Club, a group of 100 colored women, of which Mrs. Albert S. Reed is president. The members of this club will give volunteer service in operating the cafeteria. Preparation of the children's diet will be under the direction of a dietitian group, staff of the Children's Aid Society. The committee on plan and program is composed of the following members: Rachel Hopper Powell (chairman), Joliet Committee on Negro Child Study; Mary E. Downs.

This epitaph of John Gay might well be written over the grave, of Mildred Smith, 23, a lauredress, 645 Lenox avenue, who, believing that her life was a failure, plunged beneath the waters of the East River about ten days ago. She disappeared on the night of June 15 and her body was taken from the East River, at 136th street, on Friday. She lived with her mother, Mrs. Sue Dennison. In the death note she left her mother, and which revealed imagination and intelligence in every line, Miss Smith concluded it in a tone of trumpphant despair. She wrote: "I have caused you nothing but heartaches. This will be the last time I am at the opening of her tragic note she said: "To me life is like a merry-go-round to a boy who has only one nickel." The complete text of the letter is as follows: "Don't worry about me, because I shall be all right. I have only gone over to the other side. "They say only cowards commit suicide, those who are afraid of life and its trials. I have it all, and the too late to readjust myself to my niche in the world. "To me, life is like a merry-go-round to a boy who has only one nickel. He spends his nickel for the ride, intending to grasp the little ring as he rides, which will entitle him to another ride. He misses the ring and also the second ring. "My nickel was my start, the ring my opportunity to better myself in life, and I lost the satisfaction of living a life of duty to mankind, a life of which others could be proud, and not ashamed. "I had my opportunity before me, and I did not grasp it. So, rather than face an empty life, with no aim and no joy, I prefer to go to another one. I think I wondered whence we came and whither we go at death. I now go to find out." And yet, who knows but that, in a future far less distant than she supposed, there came rushing to meet her, many.

And how much stronger to have sung the poet's song: "I hold it truth with him that sing." That men may rise on stopping-stones Of their dead selves to higher things." Miss Smith was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Dennison and lived with her parents. Her father conducts a small restaurant at 360 Lenox avenue, at 128th street. A reporter tried unsuccessfully to interview Mr. Dennison. Mr. Dennison explained that the girl had been given every opportunity to succeed in life and that she throw away all her chances. She was not a high-school graduate, although she did attend high school, he said. One important element in the tragedy of her death was said to have been her love affair, but Mr. Dennison would not commit himself on this point. Further effort to get the parents to tell of the girl's life were entirely fruitless. Mr. Dennison would say nothing without the consent of his wife and Mrs. Dennison was so distressed that the mere mention of the girl's name would cause her to break down and woo. "I can give you no information; I am sorry," said when the reporter finally got in touch with her. "Was your daughter married" the reporter asked. "We would rather not discuss that," was the reply.

THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT Vacation Days JUNE brought us brides, much rain, and a few cold and hot days. What has July to offer us? Most likely a vacation, or at least it is the beginning of the real vacation period which ends in September. If you would have an ideal vacation, plan it before you begin it. Of course, the most carefully made plans are often changed at the last minute, but such changes usually have a beneficial result. The time of your vacation; the place or places you are selecting in which to spend it; the books you WANT to read and the books you MUST read in order to be "up"; the overdue letters you must write; the many shows you must see or else forego the pleasure of being an "authority" on Broadway and its bright lights—all of these things play no small part in vacation planning. Lest I forget—fit your vacation and your summer wardrobe to your pocketbook. An absence of financial worries at vacation time makes the whole time more pleasant.

The efficient housewife knows there is a special technique in selecting the garnish for the salad, no matter how inexpensive either may be. If the salad is decided in flavor, then a strongly flavored accompaniment or garnishment, like radishes, should be used. The following are suitable garnishments: Cooked carrot, fluted, sliced, quartered, cubed, or chopped. Olives, minced, whole, halved, or sliced. Tomato, diced, sliced, cupped, or sectioned. Plimento, shredded, minced, or cut in fancy forms. Cups made from tomato, beet, cucumber, or apples. Pickled onions, whole or halved. Pickle, split and arranged fan shape, sliced or minced. Green peppers, minced, shredded, chopped, or cut in rings. Minced or whole parsley; minced or whole mint. Radishes, sliced into wafers, rosebuds, or sectioned. Whipped cream, plain or pastry bag.

SOLD EVERYWHERE Fifteen-Year-Old Girl Sprained Ankle, but Continues on the Dancing Dash Toward the $1,000 At 9:45 last night the marathon dancers who are holding away on the floor of the Manhattan Casino, 355th street and Eighth avenue, had completed a little more than 168 hours of continual dancing, and as yet they show no signs of quitting. As a matter of fact they look fresher after dancing that many hours than the gyrating couples at Madison Square Garden showed after they had attained this stage in their endurance contest. The fourteen remaining couples are still determined that they will surpass any record established at the Garden and each one of them is firmly convinced that the contest at the Casino will still be going on two weeks hence. With one or two exceptions the entire bunch appear on stage and are all dressed in matching outfits. Many of them have won extra prizes given by the management, clubs and prominent individuals for neatness, endurance and fancy dancing. SIX Tom (Pussyfoot) Dash, champion of Pittsburgh, who won a marathon in that city when he established a record of 144 hours of continuous dancing, and his partner, Josephine Jefferson, also of Pittsburgh, who helped him to establish the said record, are still favored to win the contest, although Dash has grown very grumblesome and fusses continually about the food, sleeping quarters and everything in general. Dash claims that he has not alptet two hours during the whole time of his assertion with a week's growth of beard, sunken eyes and hollow cheeks. He admits that he would have called long quagga long ago, and partner, Josephine, who is always comfortable him and urging him to keep on. The miracle girl of the contest is Edna Younger, said to be only 15 years old, makes her own dances at 123 West Street.

It is composed of Mrs. Younger, 141st Street, and George Snowden. West 140th street. They have a little speciality dance of their own which they mix up with the 'Lindbergh' dance during practically every dance period, especially in the evenings. John T. Bell of Baltimore and Edna Pena popular hostess of the Edna Pena pop-up restaurant of this city, the No. 2 beach club in the contest, are staging an endurance duel with No. 1, Tom Dash and its partner, Edna Dorsay and Macdonald the man who made things easy with the expectation that unless sickness intervenes they will still be dancing on the Foyle. There have been many humorous incidents throughout the contest. For example, the case of team No. 25, Brooklyn's only representative, who was the man because each felt that dancing with the other was like pushing a truck around. Another couple was disqualified because the male partner had dancing more than 113 hours. Two others were disqualified for exchanging partners.

No. 10, $15 for the one of the "slow drag" and for heatiness. No. 12, $5 for endurance (the girl with a sprained ankle) and, finally, No. 26, $8 for an exhibition of the "Charleston." Several other prizes have also been awarded to individuals who have been contributing their specialties during the various rest periods. Much favorable reviews have been given on Saturday night when little Catherine a student at the Grace Gilles Daming School, gave an exhibition of the teams that still remain on the floor are: Tom Dash and Josephine Jefferson, Edun Peynado and John Taylor, Mattan Tallet and Sidney Stewart, Mattle Tallet and Snowden, Alceda Ross and Samuel Young, Dorothy West and Joseph Railton, Edun Dorsay and Machel Moll, Col.

John Arthur Picks Risko to Win FROM out of the West comes worm whom the title of world's heavy, heavier he happened to be colored, stating a argument at Ebbet's Field tomorrow if you can remember, used to go to world that Godrey Godfrey was his chap Godrey, having reached that pane the shaft of Niko, and who make bold to ask what he will do. Jolence. Despite our knowledge of the try to pull on the good-natured Godrey John Arthur has been so busy in West, we opine, that he hasn't seen or nothing of the improvement God years. George has improved to such while in Harlem these days, which, that George is wiser in the science. Bum Questions and Answers THE technicians will most likely to be the technical pages, but most likely to be the writers, after all is said and done, and when you do the next best thing, especially readers of a small weekly publication is parked. The dear old Pittsburgh Courterington, has been on our nerves for quawers aped from the white brother she the technical pages before rush given us a much more bounds when he asked who is a certaint to tell us was an outstanding that, Mabel, was the last stray lady in question was in the chorus Lyles show. And while we are on it the direction of "Smoketown." W passes away friend Sylvester Russ manages on him. The last time was the tune, dean of Negro journalists in the Sylvester saw him somewhere once. A few weeks ago when Alan Dan us that his friends used to liken it critic, but he, Sylvester, refused to us to impine to that brother Sylvester's gum we ought not to be burrow of the last time. Negro the class as the so-called contents also even get a grunt in the East. the West comes word from John Arthur of the world's heavyweight champion who is colored, stating that his choice in M. Scott's field tomorrow night is Johnny Riisember, used to go up and down the court. Godrey was his choice for the "Black Jack of Risko, and that it is not our to know that our knowledge of the tricks which they are good-natured George, we are stringing that has been so busy looking after his own that he hasn't seen Godrey in ages, as improvement George has made durd that improved to such an extent he was these days, which, to our way of thinking in the science of his profession the Questions and Answers From Pittss will most likely tell us that these few that he hasn't seen Godrey are going to be the right to remark that its a best thing, especially when you know that all weekly publication will find it regard to Pittsburgh Courter, superinduced by on our nerves for quite a while with the omnipresent brother who, running to it before the chorus, did not star, but last week he masked who is a certain young lady, then she is an outstanding star in "Keep Shuffler was the last straw, if you should ask was in the chorus and did not star, while we on it we might as well go "Smoketown." We notice that when and Sylvester Russell, writing on the stage in an attempt to have some of the best chorus, the late metro journalist in the United States. I him somewhere once and hastened to talk as when Alan Dale passed away, Sylvester used to liken him unto that once Sylvester, refused to be called the "Black that brother Sylves" is greater than Alan right not to be surprised at, for Sylvester was a Negro theatrical work was in called comedians about whom he burbs it in the East. FROM out of the West comes word from John Arthur Johnson, from whom the title of world's heavyweight champion was taken because he happened to be colored, stating that his choice in Mr. Fugazy's fistio argument at Ebbet's Field tomorrow night is Johnny Riske. John Arthur, if you can remember, used to go up and down the country telling the world that George Godfrey was his choice for the "Black Menace" position. Godfrey, having reached that position, we find John Arthur taking the field in behalf of Riske, and while it is not ours to question why, we make bold to assert that for once John Arthur is on the wrong side of the fence. Despite our knowledge of the tricks which they will most likely try to produce, the good-natured George, we are stringing along with him. John Arthur is not the best of the men, John Arthur, we opine, that he hasn't seen Godfrey in West, and knows little or nothing of the improvement George has made during the past two years. George has improved to such an extent he won't even linger a while in Harlem these days, which, to our way of thinking, easily proves that George is wiser in the science of his profession than many. Burn Questions and Answers From Pittsburgh THE technicians will most likely tell us that these few lines belong on the theatrical paper, but since they are going to be technical we might as well reserve the right to remark that it's all in the amusement world, after all is said and done, and when you haven't the space on one page you do the next best thing, especially when you know that the majority of readers of a small weekly publication will find it regardless of where it is parked. From older Pittsburgh Courter, superinduced by one Chase Washington, has been on our nerves for quite a while with those questions and answers sped from the white brother who, running to form, makes sure in a matter of this kind before rushing into print. Mr. Washington has given us a laugh more than once, but last week he went beyond the bounds when he asked who is a certain young lady, then blissfully proceeds to tell us she was an outstanding star in "Keep Shufflin'." That, Mabel, was the last straw, if you should ask, for the young lady in question was in the chorus and did not star with the Miller and Lyles show. And while we are on it we might as well get off another in the chorus, not notice that whenever a celebrity passes away friend Sylvester Russell, having managed to horn in an attempt to have some of the limelight thrown on him. The last time it was the late lamented Timothy Thomas Fortune, dean of Negro journalism in the United States. It would seem that Sylvester saw him somewhere once and hastened to tell us that he did. A few weeks ago when Alan Dale passed away, Sylvester Russell told us that his friends used to liken him unto that once famous dramatic critic, but he, Sylvester, refused to be called the "Black Alan Dale," leaving us to opine that brother Sylves' is greater than Alan ever was. Such back of that age who is not to be surprised at, for Sylvester is but a throw back of that age who is Negro theatrical page was in the same novelty class as the so-called comedians about whom he blurs and who cannot even get a grunt in the East. Nat Strong Will Say a Few Words THE thought came to us the other, anything to say in his own defending under the sun every time one of Nat, just as full of vim as he used, was not making any statements, but question at him and he will gladly to some of our friends to submit a think of so that we can ask Nat. "Doxter Park is going just as bored as we were and we team gets more money here than on a two big colored teams and a well awaits every fan and his brother to get in here. We recognize newspaper running around the country making Strong has been a storm center for many years. We were getting days when he was putting up the basketball teams to this city, until in some dirty work, which drank the label, we made money, we were making, but time is his duty to give both sides of any quest. Once we made arrangements with fifty placards on one of those games, this man, he printed about one hundred for the price of fifty as a token for seventy-five distributed and as a gift not doing the work as it should have been the field, played a greater New York than the basketball we had to front? Eh, wot? The Light Will Shine GOING back to the old days for a man cannot help but recall those who has hurried the obstacles and reel that directed the destinies of a thinking of "Bob" Douglas. We we fully appreciate what Douglas has when he has been able to keep to them during the winter months. Not many, one we has gone through, and that we have been closer to Douglas the born more than twenty years ago numberless times, when the outside of the many wars that have been we part. Those days when Douglas plays where he felt they belong less valuable fighter. Space is at a p point the history of the war begins to do to survive. If the Renault the winter months, Douglas is full which he laid in the early days as success of the present day. Douglas victions, played fair and can look and bound to shine on you when you are cases. come to us the other day to find out if Nay is in his own defense, since he is running every time one of our baseball league games, and he as he used to call on our statements, but if it is our desire, and he will gladly answer. This, then, friends to submit to us some question we can ask Nat. That is going just as high as it ever did." Nay is more than just you; you can tell the world what he wants here at any other place, and teams and a welcome as warm as any and his brother to the park. You don't recognize newspaper men. I have caught the country making statements."

Douglas. We wonder how many of what Douglas has gone through to be able to keep basketball alive and going the winter months. There is only one newspaper man that knows the Ransomers happens to be writing closer to Douglas than he does to the twenty years ago has remained ever since, when the outsider thought it was those that have been waged here in which Douglas sought to place his Spas felt they belonged would have tried. Space is at a premium, but some of the first time broadcast the things we saw. If the Ransomers big Five reap a right, Douglas is full deep of living of it. In the early days is what he was doing. Douglas was right, had the cool and can look any man in the face, on you when you are right, though it takes. THE thought came to us the other day to find out if Nat C. Strong had anything to say in his own defense, since he is charged with everything under the sun every time one of our baseball leagues goes on the rocks. Nat, just as full of vim as he used to be in the old days, opined that he was not making any statements, but if it is our desire, we can fire any team that we want to win. This is my answer. This, then, is an invitation to some of our friends to submit to us some questions we might not think of so that we can ask Nat. "Doxter Park is going just as big as it ever did," said Nat when we were about to leave him, "and you can tell the world that the colored teams get more money here than at any other place. Holidays we put on two big colored teams and a welcome as warm as at any other place awards every fan and his brother to the park. You don't need any pass to run around the country making statements." Strong has been a storm center in athletics as it concerns our people for many years. We were getting along pretty nicely with Nat in the days when he was putting up the money to bring the Negro college basketball teams to this city, until some of the ever-present crabs crawled in with some dirty work, which drove us far apart. We have always made, but time has forced us to lose secondrails who were envious of the strides we were making, but time has forced us to ways our duty to give both sides of any question regardless of personal factions. Once we made arrangements with a certain printer to deliver to us fifty placards on one of those games. Always throwing work in the way of this man, he printed about one hundred of the cards and gave them to us for the price of fifty as a token of his appreciation. We had about seventy-five distributed and did not need the balance. One day Strong leaved into the office and a good friend pointed out to him that we were not going to have should have been done and pointed to the cards. That gesture, Nabel, played the ball in Negro basketball in Greater New York than you'll ever imagine. They call me the Jean, but who'll ever know the hurdles we had to leap over in keeping our face to the front? Eh, wot? The Light Will Shine When You Are Right GOING back to the old days for a moment in the preceding paragraph, we cannot help but recall those hectic times and think of a young man who has hurried the obstacles and remains to the front as one of the finest that ever directed the destinies of a number of men in athletics. We are thinking of "Bob" Douglas. We wonder how many there are who can fully appreciate what Douglas has gone through to arrive at the place where he has been able to keep basketball alive and give entertainment to thousands during the winter months. Not many. There is only one newspaperman that knows what Douglas has gone through, and that man happens to be writing these few lines. We have been closer to Douglas than any other writer and a friendship has more than twenty years ago has remained ever warm despite the numbers times, the outsider thought it was threatened because of the many wars that have been waged here in which we have played a part. Those days when Douglas sought to place his Spartan Field Gim player where he folt they belonged would have tried the heart of a less vallant fighter. Space is at a premium, but some day we will write the history and for the first time broadcast the things which Douglas had to do to survive. If the Renalssance Big Five reap a rich reward during which he laid in the Douglas is fully deserving of it. The foundation of the present day Douglas was right, had the courage of his convictions, played fair and can look any man in the face. Yep, the light is bound to shine on you when you are right, though it takes time in many cases. Games in Pelham League Started Despite Weather The Royal C. C. met the Argyle C.

Brown was paired with Billie Shaw of Detroit for one of the big eight round contests, and as a big fighter she was the fighter after a long lay-off, he ended up with the avowed purpose of making up for lost time. The bout had progressed but one minute before he had lost when he worked his man around for the now famous left and when it went over it was the works for him. The bout had led down and stayed down until he was drowned over him, and Al had put in a good night's work in less than two minutes. Little colored fighter has been developing his left, and the result has been satisfactory, although the fans have been schooled to look for the right which gained fame at the old Commonwealth.

K. to seventeen open and closed tournaments scattered all over the country. Seven of these are in the East, seven in the South, and three in the West. The first of those in the East will be the New England open championships, which will be held on the beautiful college courts of Yale University, at New Haven, Conn., July 2, 3 and 4, inclusive. Last year the journey was held on the Divinity Courts of Harvard University, in Cambridge, Mass., and players from New York came back with all the major trophies offered for competition by the New England Tennis Association. Louis Jones of New York won the men's singles event; Mrs. Lottie Wade, also of New York, captured the women's singles championship, and partnered with Mrs. Emma Leonard, also of New York, annexed the women's doubles down. David Johnson and James Trottman, both New Yorkers, walked away with the men's doubles event. Besides these stellar accomplishments, Mrs. Elise Conkoll and Mrs. Emma Leonard, both of New York, received trophies for the runners up position in women's doubles and singles, respectively. It is expected that these players will be found defending their titles at New Haven next week. After the New England tournament comes the Pennsylvania State Open, which will be staged by the Pennsylvania Tennis Association at Fairmount Park. Philadelphia, Pa., the week of July 30 to Aug. 4.

The tournament committee of the New York Tennis Association will soon broadcast plans for the New York State Open, which has always ranked next in importance to the nationals, until the eastern section, Pennsylvania and New York collaborated, shared that position. This year, due to the fact that the nationals will be at Bordentown, N.J., the eastern will not be held, so that New York can come into her own. If the tournament committee does not sleep on the job.

Ready for the Long, Long Dance THE DANCE JOHNSON SEES RISKO WINNER Former World's Heavyweight Champion Picks White Fighter Jack Johnson, ex-heavyweight champion, is certain that Johnny Riske. Cleveland contender for the title, is the best heavyweight in the game today and a sure shot to win the title in 1929. Just after Promer Hammerton Fugazy posted the ten-round feature on the Cleveland and George Godfrey, of Laperville, which is scheduled for Ebbets Field Wednesday night, Danny Dunn, manager of Riske, told Promer Fugazy that Johnson wrote Riske wishing him success against the Black Menace. An exhibition with Riske five years ago in Cleveland. Dunn said: "the ex-champion has followed Johnny's progress. Time and again Johnson told me that he thought Riske was going to develop into the best heavyweight of his life. Whenever Johnson is in the neighborhood of Riske he always goes to the bout. I remember in 1925 when Riske was battling Young Stribilian in a no-decision bout out in East St. Louis Johnson was Johnny's greatest rooter. He never laid off Stirling for a minute." Johnson Likes Riska. Johnson has gone on record more than once as picking Riska to land the hardwired title as soon as he is granted the oppoition. Finally Johnson is one of the greatest judges of boxing and boxers in the game. It is said that he picks more winners than any other retired scrapper. He has been also touting Godfrey as a great contender for the past two years but would not allow his judgment on the impending swings to be swayed by any racial bias. Riska is a clutch to win and that there's a good possibility of his winning by a knockout. In spite of two postponements Matchmaker Andy Neidreiter's original preliminary program is still intact. Wowing Warner and Nando Tassel go in the six-round semifinal, George Levine of Brooklyn takes on Lloyd Hybert, of Cleveland in an eight rounder and Billy McElroy.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 27, 1928 DANCER HELPS "TOBV" JOSEPH DANCER HELPS "TOBV" JOSEPH Youngster in Pyle's Bunion Derby Made Happy by "Bojangles" Little "Toby" Josephs, barely 15 years old, who trekked the tortuous journey in C. C. Pyle's Cross Country Marathon from Los Angeles to the big town, was the lad who benefited financially via the route of public adulation. The lad finished out of the money, and Bill Robinson, realizing that he had staked all for the sake of a crippled father, unhe逃tatingly and in his characteristic maner thought upon the benefit plan. Robinson worked like a Trojan in order to put this project over, and it is only fitting and proper that we pin the garlands upon his breast now while he is able to inhale their fragrant odor, rather than to wait until he is cold in that sleep that each of us, great and small, cannot escape. A Durant automobile costing $1,100 was given to Josephs through the good officers of the hero of our story for the sum of $500. Some of those contributed other than by donations, but widely successful benefit. Tuesday might last were: Casper Holstein, who donated a $500 gold medal with diamonds and $100 in cash; William Holsey, $50, and Al Brown, famous little boxer, $25, enclosing the car. Bojangles saw it that the balance, aggregating close to $750, were given to the Cottons in cash, in addition to the sums donated and above enumerated. Alderman Fred R. Moore acted as master of ceremonies at the benefit and planned Casper Holstein' medal on the manly chest of Ilo-hearted "Toby" Josephs. Miss Lella Edmonds, well known social figure, was very kind to little Wesley, purchasing clothing and his clothes during his stay here. Mrs. Clara Parra Wesley in her home free of charge, Chris Huswoud, well known basketball official, also did his bit in contributing to the Cotton family. (Cotton family) (Cotton name.)

Lemuel Salmon, ace of the Salem-Crescent A. C., knocked out Hector Mender, of Baltimore, in the second round of the feature 147-pound intercity bout of the amateur boxing show at the Crescent A. C. in Bay Ridge last Wednesday night. Mender, who placed second in the Olympics in Paris in the 1927 pounded the New York bantz in the first and won it handily; with second session under way one minute and two seconds, Mender was working on his opponent aggressively when suddenly Salmon let loose a terrific right to the chin which dropped the Baltimore lad for the count. Tom Syrracte, of the Newsboy's club, New York State 128-pound winner, impressed impressive victory over William Laven of the Newark Turners. in a fast special hout. The skirmish was one of the fastest of the show. Syracuse dropped his adversary for a nine count in the first round but the Jersey boxer arose and came up first in the pop. He finished the first round and in the next two sessions gave the home town representative plenty of opposition. Lavery was full of vigor in the last two rounds and it was probably Syracuse's knockdown in the final. He gave him the decision.

BY EDGAR T, ROUZEAU De Mund's Recital The margin of contrast, between acquired genius and genius as a natural attribute is so negligible that we are forced to thank Ralph De Mund, tenor, for a lesson in the appreciative difference between the two. The occasion, of course, was rare, but it was the auditorium of the Y. W. C. A., which time we were also privileged for the first time to hear the offerings of the Florentine Troupe. As a matter of fact, we must perforce concede that there are singers whose voices are more musical and who enjoy a wider tonal range than Mr. De Mund's, but there are few who can rival him in his specialty of dramatic interpretation. He is here commended on all of his num- The Florentine Troupe is composed of Moses Felly, tenor; May Petty, contralto; and E. D. Baynard, baritone. Spirituals were their home when singing in a lighted home when singing in a lighted vein. Beatrice Wade is their director-accompanist and is also the composer of most of their scores. She is heartily commended for her composition entitled "A Jubilee Anthem." 一 The seventeenth pupils' rectal of the Groce Conservatory of Music will take place tomorrow evening in the auditorium of the Y.

HARRIS Made Manager of McAn Shoe Store Assistant Manager of Le ox Avenue Shop Is Also a Negro Another very encouraging demonstration of the Negro's executive ability is seen in the recent appointment of R. J. Kirkpatrick and Cloero C. Hairstun as manager and assistant manager, respectively of the Thorn McAn' shoe store, 459 Lenox avenue, near 133d street. This store is one of the 400 owned by the Melville Shoe Corporation of New York. They were first opened throughout the country in 1922. Stores are now operated in thirty eleven locations. Mr. Kirkpatrick first obtained employment with the corporation as an elevator operator in September, 1917, and within six months he was promoted to the position of assistant manager in the shipping department. In the fall of 1918 Mr. Kirkpatrick was placed in full charge as manager of the packing and shipment of shoes, and average of five and a half to seven million pairs of shoes annually. At that time Mr. Kirkpatrick had ten white assistants working under him and this arrangement continued until about 1824, when the white clerks were replaced with colored clerks. Mr. Halsturm was employed as one of the assistant clerks under Mr. Kirkpatrick in October, 1827. When the packing and shipping department was moved from New York to Massachusetts recently Mr. Kirkpatrick was promoted to the management of the Lenox avenue store, and Mr. Halsturm was pointed as his assistant. On May 3 the new colored manager went over the stock with his white predecessor, and the store reopened under colored management on May 7. The Negro public of Harlem has given the store splendid support, said Mr. Kirkpatrick, and many of their white customers have expressed their pleasure in seeing the store under colored management. White males realize in shoes for men and boys, a few of them carry women's shoes, and Mr. Kirkpatrick expects to persuade the company to add women's shoes to the stock at his store, also. Mr. Kirkpatrick is 42, a native of Jamaica. B. W. I., a citizen of the United States, and lives at 215 West Street. Mr. Hairstun is 33 and resides at 38 St. Nicholas place. He was born at Greensboro, N. C., where he graduated from Bennett College. He later taught school at the Alabama Institute, Birmingham, where he was also director of athletics. Both men are married, with chil CAMP COMMITTEE GETS $3,000 DONATION A check for $3,000 was donated to the Negro Children's Camp Committee and a similar amount to five other white committees by Sherif Charles W.

State A FAGE OF SECOND SECTION Many Attend Acme Meeting Oratorical Contest Won by John Ashurst Last Sun- day Afternoon In what was classed as one of the most brilliant oratorical contests ever held in Brooklyn, John Ashurat was awarded first prize by the judges Sunday after the affirmation of the conclusion of the contest, from the applause the verdict was a popular one.

Ashurat seemed to impress the judges. Count Arthur I. of Manhattan, re-affirmed his commitment to the Carlton Avenue I. of Camith尔尔 of the Carlton Robinson — because of the exceptional manner in which he delivered his remarks, plus the logic and the presentation of facts to back up his claims. The three victors united in stating that they believed that civilization was not being undergoing transition into a better day. They pointed out that progress is in the individual or in groups and when we make comparisons between that of other days and times we are constrained to admit that we are developing a higher and better civilization and that we are undergoing an ordinary change. The speakers pointed to the increase of tolerance, the hating of war, the improvements in the arts and the cultural charge from form to form, called attention to the progress of the Negro, who one of the speakers clashed as "one of the youngest race groups" emerge from form to form, a higher form and who has made more progress in a shorter space of time than any other group. The speakers closed with a picture of the future, when man by his higher civilization will have banished war, when there will be no poverty, to racial persecution, and mankind will live as one big brotherhood. The features of the program were: a soprano solo by Aaron Benjamin E. Smith; contralto solo, Miss Waldine Williams; violin solo by Gordon and Franklin Edwards, accompanied by the violinist Walker was the accompanist for the other artists.

Around Our "City of Churches" Now that the smoke of battle is over insofar as the members of Brooklyn Lodge are concerned in regards to the election of exiled ruler, we will write in general on the election of the exiled ruler. For example, in the first time that an exiled ruler has been re-elected for the third term when he had such opposition as Washington. Some years ago Exalted Ruler John Felder was re-elected for three terms, but he had no opposition. There are over 1,200 financial members of Brooklyn Lodge and over 1,000 legal members of the tribes, and thus it may be seen that a large proportion of the adult population of Brooklyn was concerned in the election when we consider the relatives and friends of these three organizations. Washington's most formidable opponent was George Zeno, who had one of the best knights of the lodge for several terms. He was one of the most popular members of the lodge and had as his supporter his brother, Robert L. Zeno, one of the most astute fraternal politicians in Elkidom. It so happened that he, being a Zeno, the Washington supporters raised the cry of "too much Zeno," and this seemed to react despite the political maneuvering of his brother and threw his strength to Coenman. Caleb Richmond played what was called good Elk politics and got out of the race for exiled ruler, but not before he had climbed on the Washington band wagon. In talking with the writer, Exalted Ruler Washington stated that the memory of the two temples, Excelsior No. 35 and Progressive No. 78, were greatly interested in this outcome, and that he and his friends were busy all next day answering telephone calls. We interviewed Daughter Elks and they stated that they were interested in the outcome because Mr. Washington was the exiled ruler of Brooklyn Lodge and threw his strength seems to lie in the fact that he is at the beck and call of every member and does not try to "high hat" his brothers after getting into office. He is a business man, being in the painting and decorating line. In fact, he has built in a machine in the lodge that impresses the old "Bill" McFarland machine. When asked about this Washington stated that he did not believe in Miss Jean I. Slimen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter A. Bimon of 283 Mason street, has been visiting relatives in the city for the last three weeks. Mrs. Bimon is expected to tend the commencement exercises of Howard University and of Minor Normal school and has splendidly answered an officer of the newly organized social, and literary club.

We aro led to believe this because tho Interstate Tatler (we prefer the English spelling), has often quoted us with due acknowledgment, just as its compatriot, The Amsterdam News, another Negro paper, has often done. All tho ame, the omission of all mentfon of the name, Encure, must [bo labelled as very bad Judgment, because we circulate extensively fn America, and moro especially in New York whore the Tatler operates, 60 that {t Is more than probable Tatler readers would know whence the article in question was culled.

Many of the American sBldiers will ramombor furing the war how the French fought to save this wonderful ehirch from the Germans, and T certainly don't blame them. Many of the Atver- dean soldtera landed in Marseille during the war, I have just had a card from Lieut.

All my ailments were the result of chronic constipation which caused my system to become filled with poison. "One day a friend suggested that I try Black-Draught. I began taking it right off. I continued the medicine for several weeks and since then I have felt fine. I am in better health now than I have been in years. "Black-Draught is a splendid remedy for constipation."

When mother's away the house is queer: Nothing's the same as it is when she's here. The clock ticks are echoes that go on and on. Each echo drones dully: She's gone, she's gone! You can't make it home when mother's away. Loving daughters, FLORENCE and PRINCE Loving sons, LOUIS WILLIAM JR. and CLARENCE.

Des Verney, who died June 18, 1923. "Assembling a cast for a colored revue destined for Broadway playgoers is fraught with greater problems than the casting of white children. The firm Lew Leslie has so declared Lew Leslie, whose "Blackbirds of 1922" is now playing at the Liberty Theatre. "Colored revues," said Lew Leslie, "are based on the fact that and therefore expert judgment must be used in the casting. Not only must the book, lyrics and music be dif ferent, but their very rendition must be used. The book must be used must be the best exponents in their particular field of endeavor. "Unlike the usual Broadway expravaganza, where names well known to the audience enter into the breach, the producer of colored shows, because names, except in rare instances, carry little weight with Broadway audience, is forced to work with the audience in an effort to get the best talent available. And not only that, he has to sign up actors and actresses who have not been seen too much around the theater, but also he will lose considerable of the colored patronage who know their stars only too well. This is no easy task and often a producer has to prepare talented Negro actors for the Broadway debut. "Then, too, there aren't as many stellar actors in the Negro ranks as there are in the mainstream theatre, because the opportunities for colored artists aren't as great. This, of course, limits the selection, with the result that the Broadway audience of colored revues has, in most cases, to develop his own talent. Boston Miss Carmen G.

Wednesday, June 27, 1928 Possible Trade With Stores in Harlem The Acrimination in the Selection of Their SMITH --- WHAT IS F Wherever possible Trade With Stores in Harlem That Do Not Practice Discrimination in the Selection of Their Employees. AL SMITH --- WHAT IS HE? (CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE) several administrations would cause us to change our opinion of him and his candidacy. EARLY IN JANUARY OF 1923, soon after he was inducted into office for his second term, we had the following to say: If we felt that he (Smith) could change the sentiment of the Southern element of his party, we would support him for President of the United States in the next Presidential election when he, in all probability, will be the logical candidate of the Democratic party. But when Al Smith steps out of New York State politics into national politics, he will be dominated by the same anti-Negro group of senators and congressmen from the Southern states who oppose every piece of legislation favorable to us. Al Smith will not be able to change them. Then, and only then, will the citizens of Harlem who supported him for Governor see their mistake. AL SMITH has not even waited until he reached the White House to bend the knee to the South. When he took office for his second term he bended one knee: In his refusal to appoint a Negro to the colonelcy of the 369th National Guard Regiment, whose enlisted personnel is entirely colored; in his refusal to look into the matter of the Wills-Dempsey fight; in his refusal to sign the Court bill because it "threatened" to make it possible for a Negro to be elected to the municipal court bench; and in his refusal to appoint Negroes even of his own political faith to public office. FOLLOWING the close of the Democratic convention in 1924, New York's Governor has not been satisfied to bend the knee to the South, but has gone down on all fours and his emissaries have constantly advertised him to the South. To leave no stone unturned which could possibly help him to realize his life-time ambition, Al Smith himself has made several trips South to convince the Southern Democrats that if elected President he will be regular—that is, he will not interfere with the enforcement of the liquor laws or the so-called Negro problem in the South. WE HAVE NOT OPPOSED Smith's candidacy because he is a Catholic. Thousands of Negroes all over the world have his same religious faith. Nor do we oppose him because the political bed from which he sprung has always reeked with corruption; for it is still a debatable question whether the Negro gets more out of corrupt politics than he gets out of clean politics — lily white in the South and aristocrats in the North. HIS ATTITUDE towards the Klan and liquor questions also sums up his attitude on the so-called Negro question: He is neither wet nor dry, hot nor cold, fish nor fowl, friend nor enemy. He is dangerous for the Negro and for America. HARD TO UNDERSTAND THE AMSTERDAM NEWS is the object of a curious accusation. At the memorial meeting in honor of the late Dr. Hubert H. Harrison, Edgar M. Grey accused this paper of hastening Dr. Harrison's death by rejecting an article which Dr. Harrison had offered. Though the charge is absurd, it may have been taken seriously by a number of well-meaning people, who have overlooked several obvious facts. THE FIRST is that there are six papers published in Harlem, not to mention the two magazines and the out-of-town papers. Of these, this paper should be the last to be singled out as a discourager of Dr. Harrison's genius. It has published more of his articles than any other Harlem paper with which he was not regularly connected; when a comprehensive reply to "Nigger Heaven" was wanted, this paper chose Dr. Harrison to make it. The week of his death the leading editorial of The Amsterdam News was devoted to the praise of his talents. Of all the Harlem newspapers The Amsterdam News did most for Hubert Harrison. Mr. Grey's accusation is hard to understand. The Negro at Kansas City The Hawaiian Islands THERE were fifty Negro delegates and alternates at the recent Republican Convention. A goodly proportion came from Northern districts. Their interests were mainly segregated and racial. The dominant issues of prohibition and farm relief did not arouse their emotions, nor stir their enthusiasm. After the manner of the Southern plan, the Negro representatives were shut in by domiciliary segregation. The Negro delegates did not seem to figure in any effective way in the general procedure of the convention. In the main, they were lined up on the winning side-long in advance! The Afro-American has an instinct for picking the winner and getting on the bandwagon. The chief concern of the Negro political leaders was to secure the insertion of a plank insisting upon the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. They were not even able to have these amendments bracketed with the Eighteenth, whose enforcement was especially stressed as a party policy. But, true to the verbal traditions of the party, some slight reference had to be made to the Negro and his claims. The insertion of the splinter of a plank on lynching was only a compilatory gesture. It serves to remind the race that the Grand Old Party has not altogether forgotten the black ally. A Negro delegate was assigned to make one of the four or five THE early history of Hawaii is known only through the ancient songs and poems handed down orally, like those of early Europe. The islands were settled about 500 A.D. by peoples from the Samoan group. A long period of isolation followed and it was not until 1100 that intercourse was again renewed with Tahiti. The first white man to visit the islands was Captain Cook, in 1778. Disease was little known until the white sailors brought in many forms of illness and left the natives with only fear and contempt for them. In 1819 idolatry was abolished and two years later the first missionaries went there. In 1819 the United States recognized their independence, but in 1843 they ceded themselves to Great Britain, who restored their independence after six months. Various kings ruled the islands until 1851, when the well-known Queen Lillianokalai acceded to the throne. In 1894 the republic was established; then, in 1898, due to complications with Japan and the Spanish-American War, American annexation was secured. The islands are in the very heart of the Pacific Ocean, 2,100 miles from San Francisco and 3,400 from Yokohama. There are twelve islands in the group, the largest being Hawaii, Oahu, and Molokai. They are volcanic in origin and owe their present rugged condition to the forces of erosion. On the leeward side are deep ravines and narrow valleys extending from the mountains down to the sea, while on the windward side the winds and rains have cut precipitous cliffs which rise sheer from the water thousands of feet into the blue sky. The northeast trade winds, blowing for nine months of the year, bathe the islands with much moisture. Though thunderstorms are rare, showers of rain fall almost daily. They are unlike showers in other countries, being soft, cooling precipitations, enjoyable to be out in; the natives call them liquid sunshine, because the sun continues to shine through the golden raindrops. There are about 300,000 inhabitants in the islands; of those, 24,000 are pure native stock, 19,000 are mixed blood, 36,000 Caucasians, 27,000 Portuguese, 6,000 Porto Ricans, 50,000 Filipinos, 25,000 Chinese, and 129,000 Japanese. The people are intelligent, imagi native, honest, affectionate, emotional, and have a decided love for color, as is shown in their dress and in their fondness for arraying themselves in flowers and bright leis. Most of the primitive native life has disappeared and the people are absorbing American ideals and essential traits, which are now the power behind the political and economic life of the islands. The natives have never been cannibals, as is often believed; it was only on rare occasions during the early life of the country that human sacrifices were made. If God had a working model when he created the earth, he must have used the lovely mountains, flowery valleys, fragrant forests, rolling surf, golden sunshine and wonderful climate of Hawaii as His pattern. Nowhere in the world is a boat greeted as it is in Hawaii. It edges its way through the emerald green and sapphire blue of By KELLY MILLER minute addresses, seconding the nomination of Secretary Hoover. This he did creditably. I believe that this is the only instance where a Negro functioned consciously in the proceedings.

This song is sung upon every occasion, either as a welcome greeting or a parting good-bye; and people wear the lef wreath everywhere. It is made of delicate scented flowers, paper, feathers, shells or seeds. If this is your first visit to the islands there may not be anyone among the joyous throngs to greet you, and you may feel a little little sad and disappointed, but as you watch the happiness of others who drink in the cool, fresh air, bathe in the bright sunshine and imbibe the joyousness of the atm- phere, you soon become hanu. When your stay in the islands is ended, you will find your parting tinged with sadness and regret, because you will have made so many happy friendships; and.

Place-cards are customary at formal meals, for convenience in seating arrangements. Guests do not go to the table as they choose, but rather, when place-cards are used, the host and the lady accompanying him usually lead the way, while the hostess and her escort bring up the rear. On less formal occasions, the host or hostess may enter the dining-room first and direct the seating of the guests. If the hostess is serving, she should be seated nearest the pantry or kitchen door for her own convenience and to avoid disturbing her guests when she goes back and forth to serve. However, if a maid is serving, the hostess should sit opposite the pantry door to direct more easily the entering and departing of the maid. side of the chair.

More than that, we of this country have a greater multiplicity of husbands and wives than any other professedly Christian country. later motives rather than in 3. Customs, fashions and ad- ments. 4.

One of the sadest features There are many reasons why there is so much of incompatibility and so many separations.

It was the emphatic and unswerving attitude of this bold black leader that determined the issue between Roosevelt and Taft, which put the Grand Old Party out of luck for the ensuing eight years. But there is a darkersemblance yet. The Negro was all but eliminated as a dominant force in any of the States. Walter Cohen, the little pelican war horse, was destroyed in favor of white leadership. He was personally allowed to retain his seat as a delegate merely to save the regnant party from throwing out a leading Negro without courtesy or consideration. Ben Davis lost the committeemanhip in Georgia. Perry Howard alone survives, but even his temporary success has no assurance of permanency. The fact remains that throughout the South the illly whites are in the ascendancy. The race owes President Harding an unrecognized political debt of gratitude. All had once before been lost to the Negro. When Judson Lyon was thrown off the national committee by Lincoln Johnson there was not a single Negro representative left in that august body. Lincoln Johnson fought his way to chieftainship. But when President Harding sozied the reins of power, he decided to turn over to Negro control the States of Mississippi and Louisiana. The national committeeship in Louisiana belonged to Cohen who, by abnegation, gave it to the very white man who has brought about his unhorsing. Such is political gratitude: but the outstanding fact remains, the Negro has been practically eliminated from trust. you, in turn, will be ladened with garlands of frangi panel, plumera and sweet malle-vine, as you mount the gangplank to sail away. The first impression of Hawaii is that you are truly in the Orient. Here is the blending of East and West. Dozens of native boys swarm around the boat, dive for coins or climb to the dizzy tops of the riggings and soar gracefully into the water. The long concrete wharf is a riot of color and perfume, the gay dresses of the natives blending with the brilliant hues of the scented flowers. The flowers and shrubs are in full bloom throughout the year and the trees and herbage are ever green, hence Hawaii is constantly like a flowery Paradise. The climate is mild and balmy and the sunshine is eternal. Next week we'll go sight-seeing in Honolulu. Culture LILLARD the placing of the guests is ar- hostess.

When the meal is finished, it is proper for the hostess to rise as a signal. The guest of honor, if a woman, is usually seated at the right of the host; if a gentleman, at the right of the hostess. At a women’s uncheon, the guest of honor is placed at the right of the hostess. At a public dinner, a woman is seated at the right of her escort. The chairs should be placed so that the edge of each touches or is just below the edge of the table-cloth. They should be close enough to the table so that little movement is required when the guests seat themselves or rise from the table. later motives rather than love. 3. Customs, fashions and amusements. 4. Easy divorce laws. 5. Sanction of moral laxness and plurality of wives and husbands by public opinion. 6. Almost complete surrender of the Protestant Church to this recklessness in separations and divorces. One of the saddest features of this situation is that so many people are separating after having lived together for many years. We read of persons seeking and securing divorces after they have lived together twenty, thirty and even fifty years. Not long ago a woman ninety-six years old secured a divorce. Where there are harmony, un- LETTERS teeship of the Grand Old Party. There is little likelihood that this power will be restored. The great Republican Party is a practical body and, excepting the Roman Catholic Church, it is the most efficient organization on earth. It has no sentiment that will stand in the way of efficiency. It desires to build up a functioning Republican party in every State of the Union. Nowhere has this yet been accomplished under Negro leadership, certainly not since the days of Wright Cuney of Texas. Negro leaders, for the most part, seem satisfied to traffic in delegates rather than build up strong local organizations which will induce every Republican to vote in local as well as national elections, even under restrictions by revised constitutions. In politics, as elsewhere, it is a case of the survival of the fittest. Now we face the coming campaign with eyes wide open. There must be devised an entirely new set of reasons and arguments for racial support of Hoover and the Grand Old Party. Appeals to Lincoln and Sumner and Grief will not sway Negro votes as it did aforetime. Extravagant prophecy of what the new administration is going to do for the Negro has been done to death in previous campaigns, with sad disillusionment. There are sufficient sound reasons and good-sense why the Negro should, in this campaign, prefer the Republican to the Democratic party, why Hoover should be chosen rather than Smith. But the Negro spellbinder must learn new speech. The one which he has used for the past forty years has lost its smell and potency. derstanding and, of course, love, the passing years will witness the strengthening of the bonds. That is as it ought to be. After a man has struggled to make his wife happy, and that through many years, she ought to love him more than when their married life began. After a woman has cared for a man, nursed him in sickness, borne and reared his children and proved herself true in all these gratitude ought to make him considerate of her comfort and general well-being. Let the prospective brides and grooms consider these important things. As they contemplate marriage let them decide in their own minds that each will share in the matter of service, of compromise, of adjustments, of self-control and self-denial. F. A. Byron, Register Clerk, Favored for Congress WASHINGTON, June 25.—The Army and Navy Register, Washington, D.C., in its issue of June 9, praises the record of Frank A. Byron as clerk of the House Committee on Naval Affairs. The article follows: There is a prospect, which political exigency has transformed into an assurance, that the late Representative Martin B. Madison of Illinois will be succeeded in Congress by a Negro. If such an opportunity for participation in national legislative activities is presented to a member of that race, it is not amiss to record the availability and fitness for such a public career for one who has already rendered valuable service in the congressional organization in Washington. Frank A. Byron, who has been connected with the House Naval Affairs Committee for nearly 27 years—beginning with his appointment as messenger, to subsequently perform the duties of assistant clerk and now clerk—would make a thoroughly competent and useful member of Congress from his home state of Illinois. A graduate of Howard University Law School, class of 1908, he has put into practical application his knowledge of law in the formation of service legislation and has been of great value to committee members, as well as members of Congress not with the committee, both Republicans and Democrats, by virtue of his familiarity with the affairs of the Navy as represented in the measures and reports before Congress. His has been a record in Washington that is entitled to the recognition of the colored voters of Illinois when they are seeking a representative of their own race in the House of Representatives. AFRICAN GIRL GETS DEGREE IN DENTISTRY WASHINGTON, June 25. — Dr. Dachel E. Hill, a native of Monrovia, Liberia, Africa, who was recently granted the degree of doctor of dental surgery by Howard University, won the distinction of being the first native African woman to enter the field of dentistry. Three other native Africans have graduated in dentistry from Howard University, all of whom have been members of recent classes. Kofi Tewaful intisful, a member of the class of 1916, is practicing at his home in West Central Africa. Peter Christian, who is a graduate of the academy and college, as well as the Dental School, completed his dentistry in 1925 after post-graduate work in Europe, and has returned to his home, the Gold Coast, West Africa. Aaron Folumbo Isaac DeWalt, of the class of 1926, is practicing in Monrovia. Keeping Fit By E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M.D. ISAW an elderly man the other day. I talked with him, laughed with him and enjoyed the stimulus of his jovial, pleasing nature. Most people dread that period of life called old age, because in so many cases it brings physical discomfort, mental degenerations, unhappiness and death. Yet these end results need not necessarily accompany old age. It all depends upon how one's early life is lived. Did you burn the candle at both ends? Were your work and play excessive? Were you careful with your eating and drinking? Did you work all day and then dance all night? "It all depends on you." The mind and body become worn out and dilapidated, not because of old age, but because of ill use. You can be old at 30. You can be young at 70. reduced to a minimum.

For example, in India the expectation of life today is about 25 years; in Australia it is 57; in France, 47; in Germany, 46; in the United States, 55 years. It all depends upon the standard of living, which includes personal hygiene and municipal and state sanitation. In all wide-awake countries, and especially in the United States, municipal and state sanitation are widely practiced. It is in the realm of individual hygiene that trouble and infirmities come. Medical science and surgery have pointed out the way to a healthy and vigorous old age. Each individual must do his or her part to keep the body strong. The agriculturalist attends to details, such as watering the soil, removing weeds, feeding minerals and chemicals to the earth. The stock raiser looks into the breeding, carefully attends to the food, the water and the environment of his animals. Human beings should attend in like manner to the details of personal hygiene, heredity and environment. In no other way can the body be kept strong through the passing years. With old age can go a vigorous body and an active mind, but the cells of the vital organs must be kept physiologically active.

The Grafton Press. New York SOME books of travel are about as interesting as rail- road timetables. This is because most people in this country do not travel for cultural improvement; they merely wish to be able to say that they have been here and there. They are like the newly rich mother, whose daughter had just returned from a European school. "Does she speak Esperanto?" someone asked. "Like a native," said the proud mother. Once a scholar said he had spent a week go- ing through the great art galleries of the Louvre in Paris, and a smart young American interrupted him: "A week! Why. I went through the Louvre in an hour, and if I'd had my running shoes on I'd have made it in fifteen minutes." There is another kind of traveler, the one who gives a mathematical account of his tour, reporting everything in numbers. He knows all the fares, the times and distances between places, the heights of buildings and the populations. There are many similar kinds, traveling like blind men, seeing nothing of the history, the romance, the meaning of the countries they pass through. They take no culture with them and bring none back, yet they have the nerve to write about their voyages. The result is that when an experienced reader is offered a travel hook his first impulse is to yawn. Caroline Bagley's has no yawns in it. She was prepared for her travels by a lifelong reading of the Bible and she was intelligently inquisitive. She is not a professional writer; indeed, this is her first book. She is not a historian or an archaeologist; thus there is no dust on her pages. Her book, with its simple undecorated style, is well suited to the average reader who seeks a fair acquaintance with Egypt and the Holy land. In Egypt she went up the Nile as far as Aswan, which was the extreme southern point of the old Roman Empire. She revealed in the picturesequences of Alexandria, Calire, Thebes, Memphis and Luxor. Her eager interest led her to look into the lives and customs of the people; she even visited a harem. Here and there she makes an inexperienced reporter's mistake of indefenseness. She says that the ROCKFELLER HELPS TO GET JOBS FOR NEGROES John D. Rockefeller Jr. has agreed to give the National Urban League $4,500 a year for three years for its Industrial Relations Department, providing a like sum is given by others. The money will be used for creating sentiment favorable to the employment of Negroes and for generally enhancing their occupational status. The League is appealing to Negroes everywhere to give $4,500, which then would assure the payment of Mr. Rockefeller's donation. reduced to a minimum. Streptococcal, staphylococcal, germs of syphilis, malaria, plasmodia, gonococcal and other disease-producing germs must not be allowed to live in the tissues. If they do invade the tissues at any time, they must be quickly and thoroughly eradicated through treatment or surgery. The accumulated poliens of such germs affect and destroy not only the local tissues, but produce constitutional disturbances or structural changes in other organs for removed from the seat of the original invasion. The proper died at regular intervals will prevent auto-intoxication. Regular and sufficient sleep is needed to retain reserve forces of the body. Wealth, power and social eminence call for excessive work, overwork. Cara in such activities must be used to prevent strain and stress to the heart, brain, liver and kidneys. Enthusiasm is a good thing, but over-enthusiasm can produce high blood pressure and apoplexy. Our lives must be thoroughly guided. Everyone should know what to do and what not to do. The advice in such matters of health should be ascertained from a family physician. He knows the laws of health and will impart them to those who desire to know. If one waits until sickness has come and lingered long before a physician is consulted, the chance for a complete recovery is lost. To live a long and useful life, a periodic search and survey of your body and the life you are living are necessary, as well as the utilization of the abundant means that medical science can supply to avoid physical and mental decay.

Conts, Christian descendants of the ancient Egyptians, are dark but she does not say how dark. Farther on, in her description of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem, she says that the paintings of Jesus and the Holy Mother in the chapels represent them as being dark in color. As this book was written largely for American Negroes, the author should have been more specific. Does she mean olive, tanned, black or brown? Are they dark enough for any gaspion of Negro blood? The author does her best in the second part of the book, which reports her trip through the Holy Land. In Egypt she was an intelligent observer with a romantic trend; in the Holy Land all the accumulated emotions of a religious life break forth. In the most touching scene of the book she kneels in prayer beside the River Jordan. To the cynical, matter-of-fact eye the River Jordan is a sluggish, muddy stream like hundreds in America; to her it is the sacred water where the Lord was baptized. Such a spirit makes this a good travel book. To be information and yet inspiring is not every writer's good fortune. At the end of the book there is a glossary of the Arabic language.
