The trouble started when Mrs. Zerlene Chavis, 559 Lenox avenue, near 139th street, screamed for help as she was being attacked by one of three men in her home. She identified Donald as the man who beat and choked her, and Magistrate Dolge, sitting in Heights Court on August 14, found Donald guilty of disorderly conduct and sent him to prison for ten days, although three witnesses had refuted the complainant's testimony. "Near Riot" Ends Elks' Contest Sixth Oratorical Winner When Donald's case was first heard, on July 31, Pedro Suner, 21, 234 West 146th street, a native of Panama, who testified in Donald's behalf, was arrested by Patrolman Young, white, of the West 135th street station, one of the four officers who were injured during the street disturbance. Suner was charged with simple assault in that he, weighing only 120 pounds, took a strangle hold upon Young, who weighed 210 pounds, and tried to wrest his gun from him.

Anderson, who has a private residence there. "Near Riot" Ends Elks' Contest Sixth Oratorical Winner Causes Trouble; Va.

The judges awarded Miss Margaret Long of Hot Springs, Ark., the sixth prize. The audience thought that she was entitled to the second prize. As soon as the announcement of the award was made, the crowd began to hoot the decision and to shout to Miss Long not to accept the prize of $50. First prize was awarded to Joseph C. Waddy, a 17-year-old youth of Alexandria, Va. He was given $500 in cash. The second prize of $200, which caused the trouble, was given to Miss Alma B.

THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News Two Operators Charged With Driving Recklessly Two men charged with operating autos while intoxicated were held for a hearing in Traffic Court when arraigned Sunday before Magistrate Bushel in Harlem Court. David Johnson, 44, 42 West 136th street, was arraigned on complaint of Traffic Policeman Repeti, charged with driving an automobile in a reckless manner. When he questioned Johnson he says he found he was intoxicated and placed him under arrest. William Hall, 22, 156 Lenox avenue, was charged with operating a truck while intoxicated. He was arraigned on complaint of Policeman Cassidy of the East 126th street station. The policeman arrested Hall at 124th street and Fifth avenue, when he observed Hall driving the truck in a reckless manner. Hall was also charged with reckless driving and with operating an automobile without a license. Taxicab Company Denies Rumor Does Not Object to Negroes Owning or Operating "Paramounts" The general belief shared by taxi owners and chauffeurs that the Paramount Taxi Company will not sell its cabs to Negroes and will not permit the owners of such cabs to hire Negro chauffeurs is not founded on facts. Following several complaints received by The Amsterdam News to that effect, a reporter was detailed to make an investigation at the Paramount Taxi headquarters, 730 Fifth avenue. Mr. Seelid, the advertising manager of the firm, expressed surprise at the report and denied emphatically that the company was prejudiced against Negroes. He pointed to the fact that Jarvis McNell, 51 West 131st street; James B. Long, 411 West 131st street; Bessie Watts, 301 West 150th street, and Annima Roseman, formerly of 103 West 141st street but now of 465 West 163d street, taxi owners, had purchased a number of Paramount cabs. Mr. Freeman, manager of the individual sales office at 10 Central Park West, also denied the charge, but stated that whenever a Negro buyer came to his office to purchase a Paramount cab the buyer usually walked out in a "huff" when told that he would have to wait from six to ninety days for delivery. In explaining the delay, both Mr. Seidel and Mr. Freeman stated that the company's factories in Maryland were a bit backward in production and as yet unable to supply the huge demand. The company itself does not operate any of its cabs and, therefore, should not be held responsible if individual drivers refuse to rent their cabs to Negroes. The Paramount cabs are noted for their beauty and patrons often show a preference for them wherever possible. Harlem taxi drivers claim that these cabs seldom come up to Harlem, except during the winter months, when business is slow in the downtown districts, and that whenever it can be avoided the cabs will not rent to Negroes. A taxi driver suggested that patrons be urged to use only cabs operated by Negroes whenever it is convenient to do so. Hold Funeral Services for Oscar O.

Addressing a meeting of the St. James' Forum, of which Dr. Julia P. H.

"I would like to reopen the door that closed behind those shining lights: Bruce, Langston, Lynch, Revels, Long, Cheatham, White, Rankin, and others. Their lights should not be allowed to go out." In making a plan for support, he said: "Talking won't do it. You must register. . . Say what you want done at the polls, and it will be done." He stated further that at least 9,000 new voters were needed to assure his election. Mrs. Rosa H. Lampkin, president of the Women's Republican League, made a remarkable address in which she declared that the 400 women affiliated with her organization were about to launch a house-to-house campaign in an effort to increase the Negro vote. S. H. Dix made a contrast of the fact that Negroes in some parts of the South are unable to vote, while those in the North will not. Andrew M. Robertson, one of the or- ganizers of the Negro Democratic party, cited many instances in which white Republicans and Democrats cast aside their petty grievances to unite against a common cause. Cleveland Allen, Mrs. E. Hortense Warner and Charles Williams were the other speakers. Attorney Louis A. Lavelle, who is making an independent bid for the Republican nomination to Congress, took exception to some remarks made by the president of the forum and attempted to gain recognition on the floor.

According to the detectives, Redmond stated that Kaczmarski and two other white men started a fight after he, Redmond, had a match and the match wout out. This confession took the slain man's two white companions from the shadow of the electric chair, for they had been arrested and charged with the death of Kazmark, when they could not properly describe the colored men that they stated had killed or killed in the killing of the milkman. They have been released. Colmhail Macdonald, 11 of 112 Jefferson a ene, and William Hardy 21, of 162 Third avenue, were standing at Pourch avenue and Warren street early last Sunday morning, when an automobile drew up to the curb and the occupants asked for a match.

Slot, white, the Harley street pathologist, performed a post mortem examination and found Mrs. Bowen's appendix perfectly normal, it is reported. "Death," he said, "was due to respiratory failure due to surgical shock, and it is difficult to say if an operation on the kidneys would have had the same result." Dr. Edwards said that if he had been before the operation what he knew afterwards, he would not have performed it. An inquest was held by the court, at which time the judge stated that he resigned so unfortunate an occurrence to a visitor from another country.

Foster, 158 West 190th street, and Samuel A. Nelson, 232 West 190th street, who had filed protests to that effect with the Board of Elections last week. The Myles A. Palge committee on investigation of ballot frauds has also secured affidavits from scores of persons whose names are listed on Grenthal's petition, who assert that their names were used without authority. Among those are Martin J. Halney, Lauder Henderson, Eva O. Evans, Dr. James Thornton, George T. Evans and Constance P. Evans, all of 1990 Seventh avenue.

Mrs. E. J. Murray Complains Among the many complaints against Grenthal is that of Mrs. Emma J. Murray, 1980 Seventh avenue, who claims that she has suffered oppression at his home. She told oi has received notification to present herself before the Board of Elections to be sworn in for her new duties as an election inspector. Almost simultaneously she received a letter from Grenhalt stating that he wished to see her. She asserts that he asked her later just how she would vote in the Primaries, whether for Paligo or for him (Grenhalt). Mrs. Murray claims to have replied that she would vote for Paligo because, first of all, he was a Negro. Grenhalt is then allied to have told her that he that an inspector around the polls, who was gagging against him, Two days later she received another letter from the Board of Elections stating that she had been deposed from her new position. Insufficient Forgeries The general opinion of the boys who have lined up with Paige is that, even if they can secure evidence of 400 forgeries in Grenhal's disguise him, because he turned in a total of 750 names, whereas he needed only 250. However, it will bring to light some of the tactics that Grenhal is resorting to in an illegal effort to force his own rejection. It more or less voiced that should Grenhal lose to Paige in the Primaries, it will practically mean the death of his (Grenhal's) political career, because as a leader of his district the Republican organization will expect him to die his own ballot, and his failure to do so would public opinion fact that he is no longer wanted. Palice's cohorts concede that they are going to have a stiff fight with Grenhal. It is even rumored that 500 white voters will be brought from the Seventeenth and Twenty-first Assembly Districts to vote for Grenhal in place of the absent but still qualified voters who moved away from the Nineteenth Assembly since last year's election. They feel the state stands more than an even chance to beat out Grenhal if he gets a square deal and the support of his own people. 1 In the meeting, Grenhal continued to address letters to all registered members of his district in an offer to register his follow-up letters following a factual fall, and his following a formal fall, on August 6, when Grenhal and Paulie for the designation, the factual fall, and the bishopman, despite the factual fall, and the numbered the bishopman.

Been reading The Amsterdam News." This is said to be the manner in which Patrolman John W. Brown of the West 135th street station addressed John Brown, 21, 2 East 125th street, who was recently arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct, convicted and fined $10 or two days, and he paid the fine. The defendant Brown was not given a chance to tell his story in court, which is said to be as follows: He had left the house at the technical sergeant, on the night of his arrest, and while standing in front of the Savoy Ballroom, 561 Lenox avenue, he saw a white youth flick a lighted cigarette in a man's face. He admonished the white youth to be careful. Some cross words passed between them but no blows were struck. The young man walked off, talked with Patrolman Brown and never seen again. Patrolman Brown then walked over and questioned John Brown. When the officer saw Brown looking at his shield, he covered it with one arm and struck him in the face. "Because I put my arms down while he was searching me," Brown said, the officer remarked. "So you're one of them smart desklocks, eh? Been reading The Amsterdam News." Brown was locked up in the Prescinct house and not allowed to communicate with friends or relatives. When arraigned in Heilts Court before Magistrate Dodge, the court seemed inclined to hear the defendant's story until Patrolman Brown announced that he recognized him as a person who had solicited colored women for white men for immoral purposes. "That's enough," said the magistrate. Brown was convicted and sentence was imposed. Brown denied the officer's accusations. Believing that he had been convicted upon the officer's statement on a charge of soliciting, Brown sought the services of Attorney Yeron Riddick, 2003 Seventh avenue, with the intention of appealing from the magistrate's decision. Upon disorderly conduct and not for soliciting, Brown ceased action in the case.

Murrell Harper, 40, a janitor living at 138 Grand avenue, Brooklyn, who was also arrested while visiting at Washington's home, was dismissed. The arresting officer, Patrolman Hunter, of the Sixth Division, said that a white man by the name of David Bensham was by the Washington's home at the time of the arrest and that he had the musician's instrument under observation for some time, following complaints of improper conduct there. Washington's racket, said Patrolman Hunter, was to "state up" white and colored female habitats of night clubs with men and have them meet at his home after the cabarets closed.

Infant Died; Arrest Salesman Doctor Homicide Charge Changed to Practicing Without License Charged with representing himself as a doctor and causing the death of a child, Alphonse Rojamsen, 26, a salesman, 8 West 127th street, was arraigned in Homicide Court before Magistrate McCreary Tuesday, August 28, and held in $10,000 ball for a further hearing today, on a charge of homicide. The dead child is Leroy Samuels, two - year - and -nine-month-old son of Mrs. Beatrice Samuels, 206 East Ninety-ninth street. After an autopsy on the child's body, the police charged the Jameson be dismissed on the homicide charge and rearrested on a charge of practicing medicine without a license. Mrs. Samuels had taken her child to Bellevue Hospital, where physicians told her Thursday that it was suffering from an incurable disease and that they could do nothing for it. As she left the hospital weeping with her child in her arms, she was questioned by Rojamsen, who questioned her and finally told her that he was a physician and that he could cure the child, it was reported. The frantic mother seized upon this last hope and invited the man to her home, where he performed an examination upon the child and announced that the cost of the care $100 plus the fee of $300 posit and the remainder in instalments. So eager was the mother to recover her son's health that within a few days she had paid Rojensen as much as $115. The "doctor" gave medicine which the polite child had a strong odor of chloroform. The child's condition became gradually worse until Sunday. Aug. 26, when an ambulance doctor was called in and the child was rushed to the City Hospital or the Cifare Italian Hospital. The day Chief Medical Examiner Norris made an autopsy of the body. Mrs. Samuel's sorrow was complete. She notified the police. Detectives Lynch and Grippen of the East 104th street station arrested Johansen the next day, when he went to the Samuel's home to give the child another treatment. He did not retain some of the liquid which was believed to have been the cause of her son's death. It was examined by the city chemist. An autopsy performed on the child's body by Chief Medical Examiner Norris revealed that death was the result of the incurable disease and not the "medicine" which Johansen administered to the child. Therefore, Detectives Lynch and Grippen will recommend to the court today the charge of homicide. However, the police will rearrest the "doctor" on a charge of practicing medicine without a license and arraign him in magistrate's court.

The club was patronized by both white and colored pleasure-seekers. During the past year the Nest featured prominently in the newspapers following a shooting and an attempted holdup, the first by an East Side white gangster and the second by a group of bandits captured and sent to prison. Many of the club's patrons were said to be of very questionable character, making it an unsafe place to seek entertainment. Evidence of liquor law violations was gathered by detectives of Inspector Ryan's staff, who visited the place two weeks ago. The seizures which made me led to the Nest has to be a padlock rattle or threat to the case in court. After Mayor Walker's 3 a. m. curfew became a law the owners of the club purchased the building it occupied.

'Numbers' Business Still Prosperous Thirty-Nine Violators Arraigned in Special Sessions Court Harlem is fairly prosperous if the business of banking "numbers" may be accepted as an omen of financial peace. It is next to impossible to point out to a stranger just where the bank is located, the number of passes, however, the larger banks maintain headquarters in the most conient spots and are always prepared to change location whenever the police become too curious as to whether they are national or dime-loving institutions. The average banker is in office wherever you happen to see him. For the last year or so it has become customary to see a number of these "bankers" stroll into the Court of Special Sessions at least one day each week for the purpose of admitting, or denying, that they were conducting a business on which the Government was collecting no income tax. Thursday morning was not exception to the rule. Foreign violators were criminally but feloniously held. Herbert and Kelly adjourned most of the cases and the reporter was, therefore, not able to find out just what percentage divided the "bankers" and the bankrupts. Suspended sentences were given to three who were convicted of "numbers" playing. They were Alfred Osborne, 32, 259 West 143d street; Frank Johnson, 39, 369 Forrest street; Orest Jones, 39, 369 Palm Beach, 33, 279 Broome Street. The clerk of the court called out the following cases, omitting the addresses: John Worship, Henry Goodman, Clifton Clark, Alfonso Chase, Peter Simone, James Chapelle, Vincent Calderone, John Anderson, Dominick Becker, Dolphin Dauer, Vincent Ortlegt, Rocco Perretti, William Martin, Edward Jackson and Leoey Round.

Stowaway May Not Reach South Pole Stowaway May Not Reach South Pole Jersey Cityite Now on Probation on "City of New York The hope of being the first Negro to reach the South Pole may not be realized by Robert White Lanier, 29 Orient avenue, Jersey City, who stowed away on Commander Richard E. Byrd's ship, the City of New York, at his Hoboken pier recently, it is supposed that he would wait until two other stowaways and sail on probation until the ship should reach Panama.

HITER HITER Specialist HITER HITER Specialist New York, New York NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1928 HOUSEWINE EXCHANGE Now that the summer season is closing, one begins to think of card parties and afternoon tea. Afternoon teas are particularly charming when rid of frills. We seem to know very little about how to accommodate desserts to afternoon tea. Of course, we love them from our English friends, but we failed to take along the naturalness. We feel when we are invited to tea these days that we must make something of a ceremony of it. We must have a new rock, fresh gloves, a fresh marcel, or some token that are going to a party. When all of us are too tired and nervous to enjoy, you give or attend your next tea, informality and leisure, prevail. Teas do not require lots of food or the house decorated with flowers. (Money unnecessarily spent.) There should be perfectly blended tea, mostly with tea biscuits or toast for accompaniment; cigarettes and comfortable chairs. We put the party in tea party when it should be tea. Nerves have enough to withhold without adding an exciting hour at the table. You may use the dining room table instead of the low tea table. Show that your table is attractive. The tablecloth may be of Italian fillet and embroidery. If preferred, sandwiches and small salty ten wafers are placed on crystal dishes and the maracled bowl and candlesticks are also of the same ware. No mald is necessary for this informal tea. Green Peppers. The green pepper is one vegetable which may be used in a variety of ways. It provides an easy way of using left-overs by using stuffed peppers in some ways. The flavors scalloped potatoes, corn or cole slaw in much improved by the addition of a few chopped green peppers. The peppers may be cut in half or just the top removed and the seeds taken out.

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN Cheerful News "Twenty-One and Disgusted," you have brought an infux of letters from the better class of boys. I can not print them all because of the lack of space. However, it's good to know we have a large number of refined boys with high ideals. All they need is a little encouragement and appreciation on the part of the girls. If haven't your address "Twenty-One" but if you wish to forward it and your name to me I may be able to use it. There are many young men desirous of meeting you. So far, however this publication has not fostered an acquaintance bureau. My dear Egynsy Ann: I gas very much interested in a letter appearing in your column signed "Twenty-One and Disgusted." I was also interested in your able reply to that letter. I am indeed glad to know that there are still among us such clean and sweet girls as your corpulent sister. As she is disgusted with the conduct of our so-called gentlemen, so we men, or I should say some of us men, are beginning to be disgusted with the so-called "Ladies" that are going around these days. Dear Egypt Ann, please tell "Twenty-One and Disgusted" not to be discouraged. There are a few decent young men that are looking for a job, and the only difficulty is how to get in contact with them. I am quite sure that it will not be long before some worthy young man will be forming a lasting friendship with this young lady. I'm wishing her much happiness. Dear Widow B: Your letter only goes to prove that it is bad policy for a woman to lend or give a man money. In the end it is she who pays. You have helped a man to get on his feet and he has gone off with another woman. You blame the woman entirely. Perhaps she did try to get him, but it he had loved you or had any other backbone, he would not have been led off, especially since you care for his child. Now quit talking about wanting to die.

Household Hints If your bed springs are not of the box variety, they should be covered with a washable cover to prevent their rusting the mattress. The mattress will wear much better, too, if not resting directly on the springs. For red ink, ammonia and water usually will remove the stain, or, if the material is white or fast color, pouring boiling water over it will prove effective. If ink is spilled on a carpet, mop it thoroughly with milk, changing it as it becomes discolored. If the stain is old, cover it with white cornwall after the milk wash. Leave it overnight, and brush it off next morning. If it leaves a grease spot, wash it off with ammonia. Cooking Hints When poaching eggs have the water boiling, add the eggs and turn out the fire. The eggs will retain their shapes and when congealed may be easily removed from the water with the aid of a skimmer or pancake turner. Insert a silver fork for testing of jelly. When the jelly does not run out from the thees, it is done. Remove the pan of jelly from the stove during the test.

BestAmusementPages in Greater New York Los Angeles Gives Lafayette Players Remarkable Welcome at the Lincoln Lafayette Players Repeating Triumphs of the Past and Had to Find a Place in the West, as the East Could Not Appreciate Their Worth By ROMEO L. DOUGHERTY. It was left for California, three stretch her hand across the contine the most wholesome form of enter part of the country. The famous I on Seventh avenue before the com with it nothing that can stir the er hearts of the young in Harlem, got of August at the Lincoln Theatre in The opening performance found motion picture celebrities were on in full and went away awed and so colored artists. They are doing which will be followed by "Old Kes in the near future. It was left for California, through the efforts of Robert Levy, to stretch her hand across the continent and give to the West a replica of the most wholesome form of entertainment that we ever had in this part of the country. The famous Lafayette Players, which made history on Seventh avenue before the coming of a jazz age that has brought with it nothing that can stir the emotions or create an exhibition in the hearts of the young in Harlem, got off to a wonderful start on the 24th of August at the Lincoln Theatre in Los Angeles. The opening performance found the house sold out and many of the most picture celebrities were on hand in fact. Hollywood turned out in full force and the wonderful work of the colored artists. They are doing that list of the past called "Kick In," which will be followed by "Old Kentucky" and probably a musical show in the near future. From reliable sources we have it that Mr. Levy has spared no expense in the presentation of the shows at the Lincoln. The West is being given a thrill which they can now appreciate after having heard so much of the Lafayette Players in Los Angeles America. The following to say of the Lafayette Players: "Soul-satisfying shandon married the production of the Colton-Imhallibol Maugham opus, *Rainy*, which was taken with the Lafayette Players, an all-colored cast, shouldering the responsibilities of this important bit of sociological research among the Physiologist. "Painting in with broad strokes comes only hinted at in the Canadian productions of the melodraman, this interesting group of players presented an all-around cast, with each gave Slade Thompson a place in the bright annals of American drama. "Evelyn Preer, playing the vivid female from Honolulu, does commendatory work. "The two other 'tat' roles in the play, Prescher Davidson and his missionary wife, are very well taken care of by J. Lawrence Crimson and Cloe Desmond. "The two other 'tat' roles as Amore, Trader Rhorse's wife, gives the best comedy role of the production. "Others in the cast are George Laughna, Monte Hawley, Edward Thompson, John McCarthy and Babe Bosebent and Arthur Ray. "The exotic setting and well-known atmospheric effects are done colorfully enough to make the audience alternate between the tropical heat and shiver in his downpour. "A standing room audience, which included Charles Chaplin and Joseph von Schönberg, cheered the offering. The Lincott production of 'Raft' I regard as one of the most interesting stage items on the current calendar." In the meantime we cull the following from the Los Angeles Illustrated Daily, another white publication: "With Jeanne Eagels appearing in a edit at the Orpheum this week, it is an appropriate time as well as a nice gesture on the part of the Lafayette laysers to present 'Raft' as the opening attraction at the Lincoln Theatre. "Four types of actresses have played the dynamic and colorful role of Sable Thompson in the past two years before local theatergoers, Miss Eagels, Charlotte Trendway and Gloria Swanson. On the screen, Each has had a disc, tinct version of the role, so no odious comparison can be made. However, Evelyn Proer, beautiful Negress, owes no apology to anyone for her interpretation of the American prostitute who is quarantined in the Island of Tutula, port of Pago-Pago, in the South Seas, and who completely upsets the routine of the island, the life of a missionary, and the hearts of numerous sailors. "Rain," which is a poignant commentary upon repression and suppression, is a powerful metaphor, so a resume of the plot is unnecessary. "Laura Bowman, as Ameena, the native wife of Joe Horn, the trainee, gives her brief interpretation of this role, making her a hero, and snapping black eye furnish the comedy that words might otherwise do. "David Thompson, the leading man, is willing to forgive Sergeant O'Hara, who is willing to forgive the girl in joy of a future with him. "Well Done. "J. Lawrence Criner, as Reverend Davidson, the crusading missionary who eventually fell from grace while trying to save the woman, was exceptional well cast, and gave a good accounting of himself. "Cloe Dombason, as the missionary's girl and awoken in the footsteps of her 'daily job' in the theatre, while the Moody Blank Theater, who were an added attraction—happened numerous popular numbers that in numerous ways were worth the admission price. With Rain, the opening attraction, with after way, the Lafayette Players, colored after way are preparing to open the second week at the Los Angeles engagement at the Lincoln Theatre on LEARN TO DANCE SOCIAL and STAGE PROF.

"Sidney Kirchnatrick, who has one of the principal roles in 'Rain,' has the leading male characterization in next season. He is director of the Lafayette Players and supervisor of all productions at the Lincoln, is planning to stage 'Kick In' in a manner equipping the original New York production. The Lafayette Players gave to Harlem an era in the theatricals as it concerns the Negro which we feel in duty bound to remind our readers that the Negro generation will be prone to think there was never a time in the history of the theatre here when we had anything worth while. Success of Mr. Levy and the Lafayette Players." "Doc" Strain in Splendid Start Show at the Lincoln This Week Appropriately Named If a person had to form an opinion after witnessing the enthusiastic gathering that stormed the Lincoln Theatre on Monday afternoon and evening it would be that "Holiday Fantasies" could just be appropriately be named "Holiday Fancies," considering that such a large number of Harlemites "fancied" the Lincoln as the place to spend Labor Day. The popular "Doc" Strain heads a cast that includes such well-known entertainers as Cooper and Thomas, Freddie Robinson, Louis Dandridge and Winters and Merona. Fun aplenty must have been warmly received, for the crowd began roaring and soon the show until it closed. Jimmie Marshall, the cast responsible for the offering at the Lincoln this week. The McClain Sisters, who had been responsible to appear and went so far as to ask the audience everybody believing that everything for their appearance was hotly-totes, faded away at the last minute, much to the surprise of "Tillie" the Punctured Romance, which will be the screen offering at the Lincoln the latter half of the present week is one of the new productions to hold at the old times. There is no single newcomer in the east of this modern version of the defailed love deluxe of the redoubtable Tillie, produced christie for Paranont fourteen years after it first appeared on the screen. To begin with, there is W. C. Gould, the violinist role of the slightly violinated violinist which provides the setting for most of the story, even when the war is over. The veteran of the Follies and is known by playwrights in the bigger theatres everywhere, the film fans will also be familiar with the film, which is also in the cast of this picture. Commencing next Monday and continuing all through the week the Dixie Vagabond will offer the "Dixie Vagabond" with Grace Smith, a well-known movie star: Bob and Baby Goins, the Invisible Doc' Strain, the Three Snowmen, the Lincoln Steppers, who are simply stepping out this week, will offer some new steps to keep pace with the usual form of entertainment. Speakin' o' Black and White As Bill Robinson recently remarked, "Eventually the Negro will take his place with white players in straight dramatic shows." As shown in "The Salad," eventually why not now? "We said, 'Eventually, up to the fact that in 'Goin' Home,' the new play at the Hudson Theatre, Negroes do take their place along with players for the first time, as we recount the history of the American theatre. In addition to an ensemble of ten colored doughhouses who are home-makers, they enter the war, 'Goin' Home' enlists the Negro principals, the positions of whose names on the houseboards indicate the importance of their parts, the players Santa Sana and Santa Negro plays Santa Sana and Santa Negro has appeared in "Aphrodite," "Chiu Chin Chow," "The Miracle," and Kenko. "Thomas Moseley, the dearest of all home," last appeared in "In Abroad," and Leo Bailey and Breward Burnett, the colored comedy team, have been in Negro musical shows and in the Negro Negroes are taking their houses, eight white actors in "Goin' Home."

Crawley, Clarinetist in 'Blackbirds' SANDWICHED in between the tap dancing of Bill Robinson, the hoydenish prancing of delake Hell and the droll comicalities of Tim Moore, all in Low Leslie's 'Blackbirds of 1928' at the Liberty Theatre. Is Wilton Crawley, clarinetist extraordinary. Under ordinary circumstances there is nothing about a clarinet or a clarinet player to draw comment, but Wilton Crawley is probably the most unique clarinetist on the American stage, and as such deserves special mention. Crawley began playing the clarinet in the 1920s. There was something about the instrument which fascinated the primitive in him and very soon it was brittled about the southern town of Ashville where he was born, where he was the ablest clarinetist in the town, if indeed not in the entire state. Mayors and governors were happy to open their executive man Ethiopian, and before long dismine music critics too begin to regard him as the albeit instrumental one. But Crawley, much to his chagrin, discovered that the immutable law of accolades forced him into the art of professionalism, where concert hovers and even endeavored to perform for a christianist, even though he christened better than anybody had done before. Crawley, therefore, set about putting a bit of showmanishness into his music, just dawning at the time and he then and there determined to jazz his clarinet, which, when accompanied by a series of twisting body movements from an orchestra seat, of a novelty offering hitherto too seen across the footlights. And it was so. The popularity of Wilton Crawley grew leaps and bounds and soon he became one of the various stages of the country. Broadway loomed too far distant for the ambitious Crawley until Lew Leslie hove into the offing. Leslie at this time was gathering material for the play that he invited Crawley to join his troupe. The result has been more than satisfactory to both Lew Leslie, Wilton Crawley and the playwrights who for four months have been going to see "Blackbirds." All this goes to prove what a little showmanship can do in an economic crisis. "BROADWAY RASTUS" NEXT WEEK "Broadway Rastus" will be presented at the Lafayette Theatre next week, which comes to us, we are told, with "everything new but the name." Gathered together is an exceptionally large and able cast for this show. It includes Emmett Anthony, George Crawford, Ida Brown, S. H. Dudley Jr., Blanche Thompson, Boatner and Saltus, Arthur Allen, Gladys Thompson, Mary Clemons, Bernie Brown, Michael Sherrod, Helen Powell, the Four Broadway Rastus Boys and Sixteen Whitriwind dancing girls. Colleen Moore's latest starring vehicle, "Happiness Ahead," will be the feature photoplay. The rest of the colored contingent Includes Selft C. Pyle, F. Parley Trige, Ferdinand J. Accoe, J. William Maxwell, Frederick D. McCoy, Charles H. Brown, Charles Benlamin, Fred H. Jennings, Ray Giles and Sibley Mason. WinsNewLaurelsin the West A. L. MISS EVELYN PREER, Appearing in the Initial Performance in "Rain" Staged by the Lafayette Players in California, Has Drawn Great Praise at the Hands of the Los Angeles Critics. The Remarkable Manner in Which the Drama as Acted by Negroes Has Been Received Has Created a Sensation in Theatrical Circles All Over the Country. Robinson Show Goes Over Nicely "Arabia" Is the Latest Being Offered by Modest Clarence A camel, ponies, a donkey, colored men dressed up as Zouaves and Arabian horsemen, paraded the theater with all the animals he heralded the coming of Clarence Robinson's "Arabia" to the Lafayette Theatre for the week beginning February 14, the darker, more delicous novels in the new "Orlando Fantasy." Monday's record holiday crowds at the Lafayette were greeted by the applause and laughter than has been heard at the Lafayette Theatre for some time. Robinson certainly a credit to the producing genius of Clarence Robinson and Bob Williams. Against background of scenes he has been compiling of dancing girls, comedians, dramatic artists and musicians into a merry, timeless, snappy issue, which excels anything seen in the Lafayette in motion. The cast of "Arabia" includes: Earnest Wultman, Bob Williams, the Berry Brothers, Dorothy Rhodes, the Six Arabian Whirlwinds, George Moore and other celebrities. The music was arranged by a commission of fourteen musicians under the leadership of Billy Fowler. The feature picture for the week is worthy of special mention. It is the Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come" starring Richard Barthelmess. "Gypsy Love" Offering at The Alhambra Next Week "Gypsy Love" said to be a romance of the wild and lawless life led by the strange and mysterious will of the Alhambra Drama Players. It is a picturesque play of the great outdoors, especially written for the Alhambra company and repertory of the Alhambra scenery, costumes and accessories. "Tag Baby Dolle" will be the musical comedy revue. There will be a great number of new faces among the Alhambra's merrymakers and a lot of surprise sketches, numbered by the cast. Wednesday's midnight ramble will have several theatre parties, including some from out of town. "Keep Shufflin" At the Windsor Beginning with Labor Day, the week's attraction at the Windsor finds those favorite comedians, Miller & Lyles, with their own company and complete production in one of their latest successes since "Shuffle Along," which was the pioneer of all the colored musical comedies and up to date has not been equaled. With their new offering Miller & Lyles have been meeting with great success and the New York critics who witnessed its production last spring were unanimous in their praise. The book and staging by the comedians themselves is amply backed by the excellent lyrics and musical accompaniment which has been supplied by George Orwell, Jimmy McCoy and others. A company of seventy-five, mostly girls, and dancing ones at that, serves to keep the entertainment company away from the stage. An excellent mounting has been supplied with scenery by Cleon Throckmorton, who designs the settings of the Theatre of Music, and the life of which have not been seen before outside of Mr. Ziefgeld's well-known Follies. Some score of chorea melodies and actions to embellish the action of the piece and among the hits may be mentioned "Sippl," "Give Me the Sunshine" and "My Back Door Man." All together this merry melange of melody, comedy and dance should prove one of the banner attractions at the popular Windsor Theatre, where the prices remain at their lowest. Comedy and dance should Miller & Lyles have evolved many comedy scenes which rank with their best, chief of which is their Equal Gt Club, which never fails to have loud and hearty applitation. Johnny Hudgins Disc cards Witty Sayings for Pantomime JOHNNY HUDGINS, the internationally renowned Negro comedian who opened with Low Lillele "Blackbirds" and then with the witty salutes amounted to more than 100 comedians discovered, much to the surprise of both himself and his most ardent admirers, that he was funnier when he said nothing at all, and that he unintimidating and he has opened his mouth across the footlights ever since. Broadway, which paid tribute to the comedy of Johnny Hudgins in "Chocolate Dandies" several seasons ago, will now for the first time welcome the Negro comedian without the need for a comedian of Europe have already added hems of adjectival praise on the pantomime Hudgins where he is looked upon as the legitimate successor of the late Bert Born in Baltimore, Johnny Hudgins first came to the theatre at the age of thirteen as a curtain and call boy in a small motion picture house. It was here that the ambition of Hudgins and general toyfellow attracted the attention of his friends who said he ought to go on the stage. Hudgins forthwith resigned and joined a stock company in Pittsburgh. Thence he went to a skewed at Ford's Theatre on amateur nights. Here a burlesque manager saw him and enrolled him as a comedian in "The Monte Carlo Girls." Four years of this and Hudgins got an even larger role in town Scandal's," another burlesque troupe. Until this point in his stage career, Hudgins had appeared only in all Chocolate Bands' on Broadway for just two weeks and emerged the sensation of the Negro acting colony. After Broadway's most mottled role, he was sent to two years at the Club Alabama, Lew Leslie signed him for his original *Blackbirds* in London with Florence Wales grew excited about his dancing and prevailed upon Hudgins to teach him the "Charleston." The comedian remained in Europe for over two years, where he performed in the Ambassadeurs in Paris, the Kit Kat Club in London, and in other night clubs in Berlin and Vienna. His appearance in "Blackbirds of 1252" is his first on Broadway in three years. Talented Philadelphia to Appear in Concert Here Miss M.

They're thick as flies in a surge barrel. But the appearance of a real sureen- tough taxi cab as it comes honking and sputtering onto the stage at the Alhambra, the city's most famous city to rear with laughter and applaud to the echo. And to wonder, for Mudcap Dust Fletcher is the grotesque chauffeur, and the frightened passenger siting, and the shattered back on top of it is Roscoe Montella. That's how they start off "Night Owls," which undertakes to show humorously some phases of Harlem life. Danny DeVries, and then Skeeter Winston, who has just been added to the cast. Julia Moody, always popular in Harlem, also makes her Alhambra debut, joining Eloise Bennett, Amanda Judson and others in leaden in the teen girls. "My Dream of the Big Parade" is not new to Harlem by any means, but, done by stalwart Jimmie Baskette in a colonel's uniform and the Alhambra girls, it is a furious bite. Ted Blackman, Barry Carter and Charles Ray sprinkle the proceeds with songs, dances and comedy. The Alhambra will have to "go to the quality of the 'Night Owls.'" And oh! by the way, that gorgeous Alhambra beauty, La Roma Bradley, La Roma Bradley, La Roma isn't the world's greatest tango artist by any means but, with those eyes and other manifold challenges doesn't it matter. The Drama Players have an original mystery. "The Evil Eye." A diamond of fabulous value, which formed the eye of a sacred image in the Middle Ages, American crooks are involved, two of them posing as Hindoos and holding a seance attended by New York City police, much plotting and a murder and the stolen gem is finally recovered.

In the realm of composition Mr. Bornn is also busy.

Savoy Beauty Queen Chosen Theresa Jentry the Final Choice of Judges and Spectators Last Friday, Aug. 31, witnessed the grand finale of the bathing beauty contests, which have been held at the Savoy Ballroom for the past weeks. The 24 winners of the elimination contests, armyed in every conceivable hue, formed a pageant of color and feminine pulchritude the like of which has not been witnessed in fashion in many years. Those who were fortunate enough to witness the contest are no doubt still commenting upon the various types of loveliness that were paraded across the spacious ballroom and were two ways to consideration, the judges that the winners were chosen. Miss Theresa Jentry-was the final choice of the judges and the spectators as the 1923 Queen of Beauty, and Ms. Bessie Burchann, the popular managing director of the Savoy, presented Miss Jentry with the jewel bedecked crown symbolizing the queen of Savoy Beauty and prettiest cheers and plaudits of the crowd cheers the very rafters of the place. Miss Dorothy Boyd as "Miss Chicago," was what made her a star, what made her darn little lady she is. She is a different type than the first prize winner but no less beautiful to the casual object of her name. She certainly something about Miss Jenny that attracted the multitude and caused them to acclaim her. The Savoy Fullroom seemed unable to decide between Miss Selma Sampson and Miss Airline Townsend for the third, so so. Of Buchanan affinity too, she was able to award duplicate prizes to each. The prizes, totaling $250, ran from $150 to the first prize, winner down to $50, while the second sent to the runners-up.

It covered Works by Bach, Beethoven, Schumann, Brahms, McDowell, Chopin and others. A master display of memory, technology and muscianism followed as Mr. Borun appeared on the stage—bowed gracefully to the audience and sat at the favorite instrument to render the Prelude and Fugue in A major. In what was marvelous—the audience apparently hypnotized listened with marked interest. At its conclusion loud aphease followed, the skoog and proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that he is a musician of very great ability. Our song-bird, Phil Gomez, rendered two numbers. "Would God I Were the Tender Apple Blossom" and "True colors the ability of this singer." The pianist then played numbers by Beethoven in a masterly manner, thereby exhibiting the height to which he had reached in the interpretation of music. But the audience had still another surprise when Mr. Arthur Thraen played on the violin with good effect. The Spartan of the violin bowing is no secret to our friend. At least this is the consensus of opinion among many people who told us so. "Sweet Virgin Isles" and "Sylvia" were sung by Mr. Bormn in his usual puthetic and effective manner. The second part of the program the stars came on the stage and played to the audience "Ramona Waltz" by Mabel Wayne. At its conclusion the audience would not keep quiet, the cry for the stage and the rangement for tenor voices.

The activities included free play, quiet hour, kindergarten games, hand work and a shower on hot afternoons. Each period varied from thirty minutes to one hour. At free play, the children enjoyed swings, slides, ropes, see-aws, balls, bean bags and sand tables. The kindergarten games consisted of social and singing games, which helped the children develop their social skills with each other. The quiet hour consisted of reading and telling stories. The aim of this period was to develop the correct use of English, imagination and memory. Each Thursday the children visited the Open Air Theatre at Van Cortlandt Park. Every Friday they took an excursion to Bronx Park or Pelham Bay. At the closing party, Eugene D. Jones, employment secretary of the local Urban League, spoke in the absence of H.

GRANVILLE BAKER of London has offered the following suggestion during England's "sater kissing" campaign: "Use some thin medicated gauze which can be cut into suitable pieces. One of these could be placed on the lips before indulging and destroyed immediately after use. "In cases of long duration these lip-masks could be fitted with tapes to be tiled around the head. For those who object to it, suggest a trichlophenylmethylsilicium in a little water. This does not stain like lodine.

The presentation served to bring to the audience the subtle way the vital, and needless to say, sentimental legends of the Bible. If any doubt existed as to the utility of the players to impersonate the various Bible characters, it was claimed in the very outset. As early as the first scene Ruth Ellis did not players had gained the unruling definition of the angel by which she wished for the genius that is recognizable in Miss Ellis would be quite eager, in comparison with the players showed on her by her critics throughout the country. Nevertheless, it would be unjust not to accer her the reputation of a drama, as every clever actress she portrayed a time-tile and double Vagar. Martin Wallace must also be in his pursuit for her impersonation of Sarah Abraham of the Bible and Abraham of the Ruth Ellis Players, in our opinion, would have an unparalleled similarity to each other. There was just enough of blondness and sexity displayed by the latter to render him effective in the part. The player was James Moseley. William Chisholm is a "natural" in the role of "ishman." While the play was in rehearsal critics prophecled success for him and he fully used up to that production. Paul Herman posed well in his minute role as a shepherd, and William Daniels easily usurped the honors is an historian of quality par. MUSIC That the * choirs of Harlem churches are among the best to be found anywhere has long been a topic of discussion. The standards on which this claim is based have not and may never be thoroughly explained. We are prepared to admit that the materials of New York's choirs have driven during the past to elevate the general tone of their efforts. We believe that the meager musical attributions which, in most instances, the vocal components of these units enjoy, and the ungenerous monetary appropriation afforded for choral work by most Harlem churches, and for which they expect so much success, have been built to a most harmful consequence of the scientific side of music, and has been responsible for a number of programs of the liturgical type that were, literally, assimilate and anemic in form. There are many remedies that may be suggested. None, however, could prevail, unless the persons to whom the choir directors are directly responsible for the dispensing of the churches are willing to yield their cheap consideration for a "harum-scarum" choral program in favor of a more serious conception of the higher enjoyment to be derived from well-rendered divine music. The choir directors and their choristers are not to be held responsible for this lamentable state of affairs. Neither will it be amiss at this time to place the blame upon the trustees and the congregations of the churches, whose large majority are willing to listen to music, but who never know whether it is good or bad. As a result of a confidential survey, we found out some time ago that with only two exceptions the larger local churches pay their members a quarterly rent from $10 to $60 per month, and when they are expected to produce and maintain a well-trained choir. In addition, they give their services free during the frequent weddings, funerals, etc. compensation on the part of the church is emblematic of justice, then justice is a travesty. On the other hand, it is more or less known that most of the larger churches offer their soloists a compulsive gratuity as a hire around the rest of the choir. These gratuities range from $4 to $20 per month. Certainly, there is no harm in paying a solicitor. He or she has got to pay and pay deeply for the scientific evolution of his or her natural vocal talent. The courses that a solicitor courses average as a rule from $15 and upwards for a single lesson in theory and vocal instruction. The course once forced to pay for instruction has the rate of $12 per lesson and Mrs. Cain co-formerly director of the Tate Institute chair, considered him fortunate. As a matter of fact, unless a teacher is making a special NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1928 My Visit in Normandy Chateau de Parfondeval. ABOUT two hours' ride by train from Paris, among the beautiful rolling hills of Normandy, is the delightful old chateau of Parfondeval, where I have been spending a week with my friend, Harry Edwards, formerly of Wilberforce, Ohio. The chateau is the property of the Viscountess de Janze. Mr. Edwards manages the affairs of the household and through him I received a personal initiation from the Viscountess. Normandy is one of the most beautiful of the old provinces of France; its soil, one of richest, is covered with green velvety pastures on which cows are grazing peacefully; fine old apple orchards; neatly cut fields of rye, wheat, barley, which roll over and over the hills and all around us, and one still reminding you of some beautiful landscape you saw in some art gallery, but even more beautiful than any landscape a painter could depict. Parfondival, with its 2,000 acres, is one of the largest estates in France. Normandy, too, is rich in tradition. From it came the illegitimate son of Rollo, the Sea King, who, crossing the Channel, conquered England and became the real founder of the British Empire of today. Parfondival, too, is rich in historic memories. It was built in the town of Louis XIV, and the De Janszos have played a major part in the history of France before and since the times of the Grand Monarch. The Viscountess, who is one of the wisest persons in France, is one of the most charming, unaffected and altogether agreeable persons it has been my good fortune to meet. I understand she is fifty—but she looks twenty years younger with her fine physique and cheeks ruddy from the good Norman air. She is beloved by her household servants, some fifteen in number. There are those who are always at the chateau cooking alms, but none is ever turned away. I was treated as one of the family. Absolutely nothing to remind me of a difference of color. I could not at times help thinking of some of our chesty white folks in America, with nothing of tradition and social standing behind them in comparison. Truly, the would- concession to a pupil, the course that falls below 55 per lesson is hardly worth the serious consideration of a prospective student. Contrary to popular opinion, we believe that the choirs of larken churches are the worst to be found anywhere when facilities are considered; and we also believe that there will be very little material progress until the problem of proper compensation is undertaken and carried out by the churches. To avoid misinterpretation, we hasten to assure those interested that this article is not meant as a rebuke to the directors of the variegated choirs; neither is it meant as a shrewd statement to make up the membership of these units. What has been said should be accepted simply as a well meant suggestion to which The Amsterdam News stands ready to give its moral support, but which it believes, nevertheless, should have its inception with the church. Frank G. Harrison, baritone, has left the city to resume duties as head of the vocal department of Talladega College. Ala. While in the city this summer, he pursued special studies under Dudley Buck, eminent voice coach. He also sang before the National Association of Negro Musicians in session in Detroit last week, and after a few days' sojourn in Chicago will start South. En route to Talladega he will fill another engagement in Charleston, S. C. A voice of beautiful natural qualities and of a wide melodic range is that possessed by Rosa Garrett, soome, who sang so delightfully Sung in the meeting meeting of the Forum of St. James' Church, Mr. and Mrs. E.

No. 99, which was opened under the auspices of the North Harlem Community Council, in closing its summer activities participated in a boat ride to Bear Mountain which was tendered by the Community Councils, Inc., last week, to the children attending all the playgrounds of Manhattan. Over 15,000 children attended the playground during July and August. In the Negro Camp Committee, the Council sent a considerable number of boys and girls to camp. More than 2,000 children attended free shows at various Harlem theatres through the courtesy of the management and the Council. School to Give Free Advertising Courses The Washington, Irving Evening High School, Irving place and Sixteenth street, offers a course for men and women in the essentials of advertising, together with practical instructions in the preparation of advertements, the writing of copy, the details of mechanical produc- tion, etc. Students for this course, all free, will be held Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 7:30 to 9:30.

If those Americans who boast so much about, white descent had something solid behind them in the way of ancestry, they would certainly be less noisy and aggressive about the accident of a pale skin. Around the chateau are beautiful lawns, fine gardens, a tennis court, out-houses, the slides of which are covered with roses in full bloom, and farms in whose cows and pastures just such a place for a jaded city-dweller to come for reinvigoration. In the cheeks of the folk on and around the estate is Nature's own rouge. Just a few — J. A. Rogers — days and I, myself, have taken on a more youthful appearance, the tired, city lines in my face are disappearing. One cannot help thinking that the human race in general sacrifices much health by living in cities. As I said, the Viscountess has a son, Mr de Janze. Did not have the pleasure of meeting him as he was away at the time, but had the good fortune to receive an autographed copy of his book on Africa, which he very kindly sent me through Mr. Edwards. The Count, who served with distinction in the last war, has two very fine children. He has been a big game hunter in the mountains, and he has sides of the main stair of the boatcan are lined with silver mounted trophies of the heads of animals shot by him. Several are Keeping By E. ELLIOTT RAWLIN - Some Facts About Alcohol - THE use of alcohol in some reaction of alcohol depends the purity of the drink drunkenness. Temperance, and safe way to avoid drunk volatile substance are the two alcoholic drinks supposed to If the purity of the alcoholicgin, whiskey, brandy, champ standard, tonic and stimulait suit from the consumption. THE use of alcohol in some form is as old as man. The reaction of alcohol depends upon the amount used and the purity of the drink. Prohibition is no cure for drunkenness. Temperance, on the other hand, is the sure and safe way to avoid drunkenness. Fusil oil and furfurol volatile substance are the two chief chemical substances in alcoholic drinks supposed to cause bad effects upon man. If the purity of the alcoholic drink — whether it be wine, gin, whiskey, brandy, champagne or beer — is up to the standard, tonic and stimulating effects will be the only result from the consumption. The chief thing for people to do is to be sure of the purity of the drink and to know the amount to take. Taken in this way, alcoholic drinks are of use for human consumption. bolic drink of established purity and authorized amounts. Like many other things in life, an excess will injure. There will always be human beings who will The human system is continually being debilitated by the stress and strain of every-day life. A drink or two of good whiskey, brandy, rum, gin or beer is a tonic to this debilitated and understated system. It is medicine. It is food. When ethyl alcohol drinks of standard strength are contained in the drink is rapidly absorbed from the stomach. The time for this absorption is from one-half to two hours. The alcohol from the stomach enters the blood and is finally oxidized with the oxygen breathed in through the lungs. It is burned up in a chemical process, thus heat and calorie produced. Very little alcohol is produced in lung kings. Only about 2 per cent from an ordinary drink is excreted by the kidneys or lungs. Of course, the purity of the drink must be up to standard requirements and the amount taken must not be excessive. This is why temperature is necessary: knowing just how much to take. In these days of the past, only take too much, but they get over much alcohol in the drinks sought. Prohibition thus produces two evils. Standard alcoholic drinks stimulate the gastric cells in the stomach. They are a means of relieving fatulence. Alcohol taken with meals is therefore of benefit. Taken to the extent of one or two drinks around meal time, it does good to the body and cheers the spirit. In sickness, such as pneumonia, collapse after acute illness, in diarrhoea of infants, typhoid fever, during an influenza epidemic, in cases of diabetes, alcohol in standardized drinks is a medicine per excellence. When there is no actual disease, but the pressure and burdens of life are severe, alcohol of good purity, taken in the proper manner in a feeling of repose and well-being to the person of lowered spirit, its effect here is hypnotic and psychological. The body and the spirit of man are benefited, therefore, by an alco also mounted in his villa at Diana at theaside The Count's book, "Vertical Land," was recently published by Duckworth of London, and is recovering warm praise from the critics. Perhaps no other book since "Batoula" has conveyed so well the feel of Africa. The Count is a poet in prose; he is a master in English as well as in French. The book, which is in English, carries the reader along by its sheer beauty and truth of description. For instance, read this description of the terror of an African forest. "As you slowly climb the trail the forest quietly, as some somber, forgetting faith, emerges and on the crest rests a languid arm, falling, slipping inevitably down the watershed. The tropical forest, prehistory of man, long forgotten flora, overgrown, undermined by millions of parasites." "You work your way pushing, cutting, slashing, the light closing about you—silence and gloom, slushy under foot, crunching dead things, killing live ones. Vines and trailing orchids clutch at your clothes." "As the beads of sweat roll and drop, one's tope drooping. In the great silence, imasmatic scents sweep between the stalks of the giant flames. "Clutching a rifle, steely, deadly, a machine, but no solace to one's blind terror of the unknown. One's heart stops with the cracking of a branch, the loss of centuries slowly detaching itself, bends and crashes across the path, breaking the back of the coal-black leopard waiting for you in the trail. "In elephant shrieks and shrieking praises by a claimer of sound instantly stilled. You know not whose shadow moves in the gloom on your right; blind terror in your bulging eyes; the sound of your own, mumbling incantations of your youth or of some weird, soul-searching belief of some previous life. Behind you the jungle resumes its treas, living, dying, eternal to your so mortal. "Again this from the chapter 'Voodoo': "The clearing is empty except for a native tending a fire. In the foreground empty space, a half moon, the ground empty space, and stacks of wood at their feet the fire; behind, an altar of some soft stone, stained red with patches, its table slanting downwards from back to front, a diagonal funnel through which the back two steps of polished wood or black stone, upon them a carved, grotesque, grimming figure seated, arms outstretched, entirely plated with gold, the hands raised, the faithful, naked all, their black skins oiled and glistening; in the women's hair shining flowers of gold and silver. None may come armed or armed, the civilized, the powerful of the tribes. One or two we recognize ```markdown ``` the form is as old as man.

Like many other things in life, an excess will injure. There will always be human beings who will do things in excess. There are those who will overdress in colors and some who will overdress; others who will overdress in sex matters; some talk in much; others sleep more than they should. They are the minority group. Why legislate in favor of them and against the majority who know what temperance is, and how to take care of themself? Pure alcoholic drinks do not act as poison to the majority of citizens. They know when and how to drink. Prohibition has flooded our communities with bad liquor. The citizens of our land cannot get standard alcoholic drinks with the exception of the riffle and the governmental officials who get what they want. How long shall this unfair condition last? Victory Insurance Agent Offered Managership Leroy W. Thornton, one of the leading agents of the New York office of Victory Life, has been offered the management of the Washington branch of the company, formerly under J. Percy Bond, who was promoted to supervisorship of Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia. This recognition to Mr. Thornton is an acknowledgment of his work and serious study. Lennard L.

The slave of the fire heaps the logs on logs, scoured the—the times higher the higher the base of smoke dams the image behind. The faithful are seated in orderly, serrated racks, a man, a woman, and so on, four feet apart, ranks four behind each other, facing the fire. He then describes the central figure and goes on: The worshippers bow down to the earth between their crossed legs, their shining hacks glistening like tortures in a fire. A slow murmur swells till it is like the dull thumping of the surf on a beach a mile away. As the chorus grows my companion shakes his head language in the forenoon language of some long dead civilization. The figure slips smoothly out before the fire. As it whirls and dances the chant rises and falls, all the cones in the fire grow faster and faster and from a corner a chorus of tom-tom breaks out. Drops fall from on one's face. The cold is good on one's face. The fascination of the scene is indescribable. And so on with the description of an African drought, an African night, etc. There are so many beautiful things in the book that you can see in the photos. The Count is interested in the Negro. Some time ago I gave Mr. Edwards copies of some of the Negro newspapers. He gave them to the Count and the latter seeing the advertisements of Negro blues records sent to America for sale. As to Mr. Edwards, he has been in Europe about six years, four of which have been with the Viscountess. During the remaining two he toured Europe as a magician, and is one of the founders of the European magician. He did the just got tired of American color prejudice and left with very little after he had paid for a first-class ticket. He has been doing well ever since, and says he could not think of living in America again. He former employer in America has asked him many times to return. He is well-read, has a fine library, is a connoisseur of wine. The cellars of the chateau and the town house of the Viscountess contain rare wines, some of which are from the old, and some of which came from the cellars of the late Emperor of Austria. In his present position, Mr. Edwards comes in touch with the cream of European society and named to me many of the imitations he had come in contact. Of the fifteen employees, he is the only Negro.

When Shakespeare counselled "Costly thy habit as they, purse can buy," he added the saving clause. "Rich but not gaudy." It is apparently, true that a climax of splendor and inappropriateness in dress characterizes fashion at present. Costly fabrics and jewels are beautiful when worn appropriately, but there are occasions when they are out of place. Evening gowns, dance frocks and the like are unbecoming to morning street walking or at business. Authorities usually claim that successful dressing lies in the avoidance of over-decoration or exaggeration and the adapting of each novelty or accessory to suit the type of wearer or to the individual requirements. POSTMASTER PRAISES NEW YORK SYSTEM David B. Hawley, Chicago's only Negro postmaster, is a bit surprised The expression "simplify in dress" is misleading. In ancient days it meant white muslin and blue ribbons; in modern days it means an avoidance of designs and fashions or abundance of trimming and decoration. To dress in accordance with one's means and circumstances does not imply that a woman of wealth should don extravagant attire and a woman of moderate means should dress plainly. Good taste and appropriateness of dress by poor and rich women alike receive the admiration of society indiscriminately. Not many years ago Milady carefully selected her clothes to suit every occasion; a good dresser provided different types of attire for every walk of life and avoided mixing or misusing them. There were different dresses for morning wear, street, home; for walking, swimming, yachting, shopping; for breakfast, lunches, dinner; for visiting, theatres, gardens, parties, dances, halls. Each carried with it the significance of the occasion. It was nothing unusual, for Milady to decline an invitation to a specific occasion, if her wardrobe revealed the shabbliness of attire suitable for the occasion and she did not have time to supply it with a new one. Not until the two-in-ones and three-in-one dresses adaptable to various occasions meet the requirements without hesitating. Dame Fashion is pleasingly generous to her sisters these days! Women who have passed their first youth and who carefully study the style of dress adapted to their color, changing figure and contour, are well prepared for the presentation of modern fashion and their aesthetic contribution to society. Crows," transferred their blackface comedy from WOR to WABC, in accordance with the new plan of the Columbia Broadcasting System in dividing its key station between these two studios. **Hale on Air Sunday** Richard Hale, a singer of wide renown, who has appeared in concert important role in "Goin' Home," sang Spirituals Sunday over WHN. He chose this particular type of song because he wished to retain the mood of the play in which he portrays a black woman. Hale sang the role of the king in "The King's Henchman," when Deems Taylor's opera was on the road last season. Negro Poems in the Negro Way Miss Beatrice Henderson will recite Negro poems over the air tomorrow afternoon.

Hawley, Chicago's only Negro postmaster, is a bit surprised and elated to find so many Negro supervisors in the local postal system. He feels that Superintendent King of Station U is "a man who knows his business." For over a year Mr. Hawley has been head of the Armour station in Chicago's South Side. There are eight-four employees under him and the station does a volume of financial business that exceeds $1,000,000 per year. He is also president of the famous Appomattox Club, a civic association that has wielded much influence in obtaining Government appointments for Negroes. The fraternal circles he has held have the highest secretary of the Ancient Order of Foresters, an English fraternity, which is now convening at Troy, N. Y. Mr. Hawley left Saturday to attend the sessions. TAXI CHAUFFEURS ORGANIZE UNION Taxi drivers of New York are organizing a union and will make demands on the owners of fleets of cabs, with a probable result of the tie-up of taxi traffic in the near future if the demands are not granted.

Y., Aug. 23—Thanks to Signor Fugazy's efforts to give our boxers a "break," three of them, Tiger Jack Payne, Baby Joe Gane and Wilson Yarbo were participants in three of the four ten-round matches this evening at Ebbets Field. When the smoke of battle had cleared away the colored boxers had scored one victory against two defeats. Baby Joe Gans of California won beyond a doubt when he knocked out Harry Felix, the East Sider, in the ninth round. Wilson Yarbo, a Cleveland middleweight, lost behind a doubt on points to Feldman, Tiger Jack Payne, of Los Angeles, who was a light heavy, lost on a footing to the seventh round of the main event. There will always be a doubt in my mind and in the minds of many of the spectators, who numbered about five thousand, that Payne committed a foul. The blow, as we saw it, was a right to the body along the edge of the Pole's trunks and very much to the short ribs. We believe that Swiderski was knocked out cleanly. Be Sure You Have the Right Address Entrance on 781 Sts. 488th and 888th Sts. Established 23 Years Tiger Payne had won from the very minute that he dropped his gudge, black robe and faced the two-listed assault on Swiderski's body in the first round until the referee announced the judge's decision in the seventh round. Payne, using only his left after the first roar, won by a soft spot as early as the third round. He could not use his right effectively, as Swiderski did know enough to keep his long left out in front of him and he had the reach on Tiger by many. He also knew his right it knocked the Syracuse heavyweight out, but the judges said foul. Cane Knocks Out Felix. The classic of the evening was the Gans-Felix event, which went on just before Tiger Payne's losing stand. Harry Felix is considered one of the cleverest junior weiterweights in the East and the best expected of Gans was for him to win the decision. The boys started events with Gans having for four rounds, with Gans having the edge because of his landing the heavier, cleaner blows and exelling at in-fighting, the lift found in the wind and to wield the wind was blowing when Felix began to weaken from Gans' left hooks to the head and straight rights to the body and jaw. Gans gave Felix a good beating in this one, repeated the same dose in the sixth. Felix on the Floor. Gans' old lucky round, the seventh, brought about the almost complete undoing of Felix, when Gans floored the ear of the man, and looked to the jaw. The New Yorker took the count of nine and weathered out the round when the Californian almost fought his own self off his feet trying for a knockout with a haymaker. In the eighth Gans took up his work more calmly and carefully and near the end of the round Felix was down again from another left hook. He took another nine count and counted the number measured by Gans when the bell rang. It was suicide to send Felix out for the ninth. Gans soon feinted him into an opening and shot in a one-two left and right to the dazed man, who was on his back and dead to the world. His seconds carried him to his corner and it was not necessary for the referee to count. Felix weighed in at 142 pounds and Gans at 120.1 pounds, when they left the ring. In the first ten-round Wilson Yarbo never seemed to get started. He shuffled around the ring with his hands and threw the trigger. In the meantime Willie Feldman was piling up an unbeatable number of points, jabbing Yarbo on the beezer with a light left, and then on the right. The last two rounds hit it was too late. Both weighed in as middleweights. In the final ten lizzy Grove and Billie Alger, well weters, went ten fast rounds, Grove taking the decade. Sammy Farber won from Oscar Goldman in the curtain raiser.

"TIGER" ROBBED OF THE DISCISION WED. A Line on the History of Dundee's Conqueror Negro Sport Writers Will Be Terribly Disappointed Well, El Ouafi, the French colonial great marathon runner and the sensation of the recent Olympic Games, is underlined for an early appearance in this country. He is going to turn professional and will meet some of the country's best shortly after his arrival. Because he was referred to in dispatches to the white publications as "the dark skinned nominee, the Arab was hopped up upon," he the negro race by sundown writers. They made a hasty claim of allegiance with the Arab and we await their disappointment when he arrives and turns his back on the Negro race. Since the Arab has always claimed that he is not a Negro and has nothing in common with Negroes, we cannot see the point in claiming him as the same thing happened in the case of Lombardo from Panama. Hosay has never linked up with us and when the brothers of the pen saw how things were going they dropped Hosay. S funny to us, this thing of receiving at the way over to Asia at Africa is due to those who want no part of us to be members of the race, while cricketers who are unquestionably our own receive such little consideration at the hands of our colored writers despite the fact that they in some moment drew more people to see them in the games than is the case with our colored outdoor events lasting all the summer. Thompson Creates Furore By Knocking Out Dundee Thompson Creates Furore By Knocking Out Dundee CHICAGO, Aug. 31—Another "greatest Negro fighter since Joe Gans" is on the mugilistic horizon as the result of fisticious doves here last night.

The champion wont back on the ropes and then lets to the body and rights to the jaw smothered him. He weat down and was waiting to shoot in another devastating fusilade when Purdy intervened. Kid Chocolate Knocks Out Another One Friday Night Kid Chocolate, colored Cuban ban-hamweight championship contender, scored a technical knockout over Mickey Cassell, of New England, and his 11-6, 6-4, 6-2 round bout of the boxing show at the Fort Hamilton army reservation last Friday night. Cassell substituted for Mickey Dunn. The Cuban was too shiny and his 11-6, 6-4, 6-2 round against Englander Chocolate pounded Cassell at wilt. The colored battler sent the New Englander to the canvas for a count of three twice in the third and after two minutes and fifty-nine seconds the opponent Sullivan stopped the bout to spare Cassell further punishment.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS.

The Jersey City booking is gratefully accepted by New Yorkers, for it offers them the first opportunity to popular attraction in action, with but a twenty-five minute ride between New York and the Jersey City ball park. Fans can take the handstand street and change for the tube to Grove street, Jersey City, walking only six blocks to the field, and it is expected that over 500 Harlem clubs will visit the trip to see Ramiro Ramirez and his Havana Red Sox in action. Pamphlets advertising these metropolitan bookings and openly charging work in conjunction with one another in keeping the Red Sox out of New York has all Harlem agog. Nat Strong has also been charged to be in question at the Cubas in the East, but the showings of this attraction have awakened the managers to the effect that monopolizing of baseball would graduate have the players of the Cubas have gradually leamed to the demand of their patrons for a chance to see the Havanians perform.

In these days I really think Negro athletes in high schools should be receiving numerous write-ups.

His first paragraph stamps him, without the necessary care by anybody, for a prominent place in that club created by the late Thomas Roosevelt, and for fear that his reading has been somewhat cramped, we hasten to inform him that it is the famous Ananias Club. To this club, E. R. T., Mr. Roosevelt sent men who led without rhyme or reason. In his days as a schoolboy, he tells us, such athletes as Dave Moyers, Charles Majors and "Babe" Cook of Clinton and many others "never received no publicity whatsoever in Negro papers."

Appearing in one of the issues of The Amsterdam News of some month ago is a picture of a fine schoolboy who has been making it his business to cover schoolboy athletics for the sporting department of The Amsterdam News. In one issue alone and appearing under the head of "Our Schoolboy Athletes" can be found the account of three meets in which Clinton Stuyvesant and other high schools took part. The letter of this brazen young upstart is an insult to such papers as the Pittsburgh Courier, the Chicago Defender, the New York News, the Baltimore Afro-American, the New York Age, and all the other prominent Negro papers. All Muses, of whom this fellow is apparently blissfully ignorant, has even written special articles on some of the men he has mentioned. Pictures of those very high school athletes have graced the columns of all the newspapers, yet this wise duck, who must belong to that bell-bottomed crowd of loafers hanging out around the Chelsea Bank evenings, never saw anything of it in Negro papers in his school days. But let us be generous and go under the surface. There's something smelling which tells us we are in Denmark, and that same something is rotten. As we write we have E. R.

"Red" Grange saw him play in the Lincoln-Tuskegee game on Franklin Field, the University of Pennsylvania, in 1928 and said after the game: "He is without reservation, one of the greatest backs and one of the greatest triple-needle men playing on college football this year." But the services of this great star are not assured. It will be the task of the Tiger monitor to fill these gaps in the Tuskegee game, so that it function, with the least possible friction. Other who have to be included plans with reference to the coming year are: Tadlock, Balloy and Skinklin. With all this power missing from the Tuskegee backfield and line the probable strength of Clevé L. Abbott's 1928 edition cannot be accurately gauged. Tuskegee has a very heavy schedule. The opening game will be played in the Bowl on September 28 and the grand finale with Atlanta University at Spiller's Field, Atlanta, Ga., which will take place this year on December 7. The Tigers will play two games with Knoxville College simply to round out the schedule. The question has been asked many times as to why the cadets are tackling the Tennessee team twice during the game and it was to set at rest much speculation that the Tuskegee Institute and theletic Department issued the above statement—that the two games had been Conference rules forbid membership teams from engaging in football practice before September 10. Cleve L. Abbot, Tuskegee's cratty coach, will have only sixteen days to whip his elephant in shape for the opening game with Knoxville College, which will be followed a week later with a game with the intercollegiate champions of the Agricultural and Technical College, Greensboro, N. C. The A. and T. game will be one of the hardest on the Tuskegee schedule and the fans are watchfully waiting to see how the Tuskegee coach is going to handle the assignment, that of playing a championship team with green material.

Santop's Broncos Go Down Before Brooklyn Farmers The pitching of Henry Wiley featured the Farmers victory over Sankop's Broncos of Ambler, Pa., on Saturday at Farmer Oval by the score of 3 to 1. Wiley allowed the visitors only three hits, one of which was a bunt. He should not have been scored on. In the Farmers' half of the sixth inning toward Loesch drove a bullman drive into the left field stands. The Farmers won the game in the eighth inning by scoring two runs double and Heizler laid down perfect bat, would go to third and would start for the plate and was late when Johnson threw high to turbidge. Loesch fanned, but drummeracker worked a perfect play with Heizler doing tat scoring. The sixth inning Heizler made a great stop of Burbidge's smash through the box. PARKERS AB. R. H. O. A. E.

On the Courts Bv FRANCIS THE National Tennis Championships recently concluded at Bordentown, N. J., again demonstrated that the men's team is taking its place as representers in taking sporting spectacle among our race. Not only are the mass of players entered becoming so diversified as to represent nearly all the action, the cream of the men and women of the race of the entire country are attending the annual classic for the entire country. As large as the facilities of the Bordentown school are, they were taxed to capacity the Sunday before the start of the tournament, and Mr. Granger, who were swamped with requests for accommodations. That a way was found to accommodate the large crowd during the week reflects the success of the men's team, Mr. Granger and the faculty of the Bordentown school, who found an exemplary way to solve the hard problem of an unrepresented attendent with its attendant housing demands. This indication of the growth and progress of tennis should set to thinking and planning for the future the great minds that control the game. L. C. Goffin was elected president of the American Tennis Association, and his staff must think of the future along lines indicated by the past tournament. Progress is the watchword of the day and we must all contribute our best efforts to be done, and it must not be done in a small way, or by small minds that have handled some of the things in the past. As an example of the small way Giants in 17th Win FIRST GAME THE BOXING GAME Photo Shows, Left to Right, Tiger Jack Payne, Colored Light Heavy Sensation From the West, and Paul Swiderski, Pummeling Pole From Syracuse, as They Weighed In for Their Scrap at Ebbets Field.

Young Jack Thompson BY JIMMIE SMITH THE knocking out of Joe Dundee a white welterweight champion, by Young Jack Thompson in Chicago last Thursday night, gives the race at least an unconquered champion in competition. In these days and times, it seems to be an impossibility for a colored contender to get a match with a white champion with the title at stake, but Jack Thompson now has a legitimate championship. The match was originally scheduled for Wednesday night but was postponed for a night because of rain. Wednesday afternoon Dundee and Thompson welged in and Dundee just tilted the score to 14-11 in 14 pounds. Thompson came in at 143½. Thompson had to take on weight to reach this poundage and it is reasonable to suppose that he shed the extra weight during the twenty-four hour wait so as to be in the best of his position in the moral effect if he comes from Dundee. The knockout of Dundee was no accident, the reader can rest assured. The writer has seen Thompson in most of his battles and he has been knocking them over in the Pacific Coast for the past two years. A Bit of Thompson's History. Thompson is the real name of this sensational young writer from El Paso, California, about twenty-four years ago and has been boxing for about seven years but not continuously. Until the winter of 1923 Young Jack had been boxing spasmoid and had been boxing California with indifferent success under the management of his father, Selpole Thompson. In 1924, when ten and twelve posing boxes was legalized, a boxing club was organized on the East Side of Los Angeles by colored promoter. some things have been handled we submit the following: On the day of the finals, on inquiry, we found, through a tough J. Mercer Burrell, secretary of the game, provisions had been made, presumably by the executive committee, for only one representative from each newspaper, and only by the force of a just argument of the part, that Burrell, backed, the tary Burrell, backed, did Mr. K. Hopper, head of the press committee, condescend to allow another representative of The Amsterdam News (who, by the way, happened to be an executive of the paper) in the game, to enter the gentleman would not accept under the circumstances. Now a rule of this kind is so magnificently ridiculous that it is inconceivable to our mind that it could be promulgated by men with the interest of the game at heart. Who ever hears of such limitations to representatives of the white dallies, which select many special feature writers to cover football, basketball, and other events, and who doubts that they and other information dispenses in these writers through the columns of their papers helps-to build up sport? To contour to submit the opinion that the present author derives our people is in a large measure due to man of the press such as the Young brothers, Billy Gibson, Bishop, Rahney, George Bell, Dixon and others, who have in their many diffe- tions been the most was all about, and since this is so it is good policy to restrict the aye When They Weighed In ers and it was at this club that Young Jack began to make a name for himself. He had no manager then but he was carefully matched by the matchmaker "Cherokee" Tom Cox, and along with Baby Joe Guns he became the star of the club. Boring as a featherweight he knocked out something like seven of his first eight opponents. It was during this time that he became acquainted with Tom Seleski, a "gentleman about-Central-avenue," in Los Angeles, and Seleski became his manager. Hypnotized Damon Ruhyn. The following summer Dick Rolda, the Tiger Flowers-Sailor Huffman battle at Ascot Park and Young Jack Thompson fought one of the preliminary bouts. Matched against an opponent in a raging bull, Young Jack Thompson proved he was a perfect boxer. His every move, was a picture; he wasted not one blow, and in the third round the Australian was knocked out. He was the first talking about Flowers and Huffman. Runyon came away talking about Thompson and before he left Los Angeles Tom Selekski had been in the management of Thompson. From then on numerous articles began to flow from Damon Runyon's pen about the wonderful saddle horse that he loved, and the son kept on boxing in the Pacific Coast, growing into a lightweight and gaining prestige with every appearance. He generally won胜 in the ring but his most worrisome moment was when he would be managers. Seleksi several times announced that Thompson would be going to New York in a few weeks but the trip never made it. He was in Los Angeles manager, then enter the picture and it is understood he was commissioned by Seleksi Eastern partner to look after the Eastern market in Japan. Seleksi had had displeasure. Thompson so rather never liked Seleksi and claimed his contract with Thompson was signed when Thompson was a minor. Several times Thompson left Seleksi, but without Seleksi Thompson was an indifferent exhibition even though Seleksi knew little of boxing and managing boxers was merely a side line for him. Thompson was one of the ring for three and one at a time because of these disputes. Hudkins Buys Contract. Hudkins Buys Contract Last week the writer was away from California. Thompson's managerial troubles were apparently settled when Chyde Hudkins brother of "Zee" Hudkins approached all the officers' salaries to Jack's contract and Thompson became a member of the Hudkins stable. This summer Ray Alvys of Chicago secured Thompson's contract Hudkins's brother and has handled him in his last three bouts in Chicago. nue by which the papers these men represent to get the information devised works?

HOPKINS. 16-Year-Old Lad Impresses Magistrate With His Story "I don't think hell get an indictment," said Magistrate Flood sitting in Heights Court. Thursday when John Marshall, 16. 17 West 137th street, was arraigned before him on a charge of robbery for which he was held in $1,000 bail for the Grand Jury. The youth told a straightforward story, which impressed the magistrate. The complainant was Harry Barth, white, 15-year-old schoolboy, whose father runs a store at 492 Lenox avenue. Young Barth accused Marshall of coming into the store with a gang of other young boys and holding him while others took $2 from the cash register and a ukelele. Marshall told the court that he went to the store to make a purchase and saw the crowd of boys there. Barth's father rushed out and grabbed him by the coat, he said, and he slipped out of it and ran. The next day he went to Detective Bransfield of the West 13th street station and asked him to accompany him to the store to get his coat, as he was afraid to go alone, knowing that some trouble had occurred there the day before. When confronted by the boy and his father, Barth said he was not sure that he (Marshall) was the one who robbed the store. Marshall said. After the father spoke to his son in Jewish, young Barth told Detective Bransfield that Marshall was one of the robbers. Magistrate Flood stated that he was inclined to believe Marshall's story, as it would be very improbable for him to return for his coat if he had been really a party to the robbery.

Vandercook "My race is as o as yours — but lil cattle under a wh we have obeyed b cause we have n pride. I will teach pride if teachin breaks every back in my kingdom!" And just as he sa he would, Henu Haiti, built a power and a pride in terms white men as well as black could understand. With no money and not a whole uniform among them, he and his ragged army successfully defied Napoleon! Lest the French come again and find him unprepared he built a citadel with walls thirty feet thick, whose battlements still stand silhouetted against the sky. He established a stable currency system. He built schools and imported schoolmasters. And built eight royal palaces, fifteen chateaux, a cathedral. And when his legs were paralyzed by a stroke, rather than lose the reins of government that he still held in his great hands, he walked. And finally, old, sick and paralyzed—treachery on every hand—he shot himself with the silver bullet he had moulded long ago.

AUBREY BOWSER, in the Amsterdam News: "Taking the hero as he is the story rings true in every line . . . McKay is a poet as well as a novelist . . . if the hero of the story is Jake Brown, the heroine is Harlem—untamed Harlem. The Harlem of pleasure, of abandon, calling black men from the ends of the earth to her torrid arms to crush the weak and caress the strong . . . It took a poet to capture her rhythm, and Claude McKay is the poet." COUNTEE CULLEN: "The fine feature of it for me is that at last we have a novel of Negroes by a Negro, in which the black man refuses to become a race problem." HEYWOOD BROUN in the N. Y. World: "With amazing vividness and zest Claude McKay pictures the cafe life of Harlem." The N. Y. Times: "HOME TO HARLEM" has the healthiness of the ingenuous. It is lyric: a cry from the heart.

ORDER FORM BEAUTY BA Resistance and Line Voltage The tynam is often at a loss to understand why a line voltage control fails to control. Such a device has variable resistance, yet it often makes little difference how much or how much resistance is employed. Why? The control depends on two factors: first, the amount of resistance in the circuit; second, the current drain. The latter factor explains the mystery. Many line voltage controls of the wire wound type have a total resistance of about relatively low current drain of most radio power devices and electrified receivers, affords very little reduction of applied voltage. The power cloakset, with a resistance range of 25 to 500 ohms and a current handling capacity of 100 watts, in the latest type provided with withica dancers and the abestos modeling ring; the compressions the possibilities of the compression type of variable resistor. This device provides the necessary range of line voltage control from 25 watts to 100 watts. Mrs. Alice Hayward returned from River New Hampton, Va., after attending the funeral of her brother.

HAMILTON FISH FOR SENATOR THE TERM of United States Senator Copeland of New York expires in 1929. The selection of his successor is especially important to Negro citizens, who have not had an outstanding defender in the Senate since the days of Joseph B. Foraker, who was martyred for championing the cause of the Negro soldiers at Brownsville. In this day, when the Negro's claims are bitterly fought by the Southerners and glossed over by the Northerners, a just and fearless man is needed in the Senate, a man who can make himself heard in a righteous cause, who cannot be browbeaten or derided, and who can force his arty to action. and war. SUCH A MAN IS HAMILTON FISH JR. By ancestry, training, character and official and personal record no man in New York is better fitted to succeed Senator Copeland. From the days of the Revolution his family has shed blood for the country and saved it in councils of state. His grandfather helped to put through the Civil Rights Bill in 1895, when he was Speaker of the New York State Assembly. HAMILTON FISH is fully worthy of his illustrious family. Instead of a life of ease, he chose the arduous path of public service. In the World War he served as major in the Fifteenth Regiment, and was idolized by his men. For eight years he has served in Congress, distinguishing himself by his outspokenness against every form of injustice and his fight to secure Negroes and other races their rights. Against the fiercest opposition of Southern leaders he helped to carry through the Anti-Lynching Bill and the bill to erect a battle monument in France commemorating the bravery of the Negro soldiers in the World War. On his return from the war he led the fight to permit Negro veterans to belong to the American Legion. He is a champion of every movement to make this a better country for the Negro to live in, and every Negro in the State would eagerly support him for any office he might seek. The Amsterdam News urges his nomination for United States Senator. AN IDEAL DESIGNATION WHEN THREE prominent Negro citizens declined the designation to run for Congress from the Twenty-first District, it was said that the next designee would be a white man, because the list of qualified Negroes had been exhausted. That this was not true is shown by the naming of a man who, in every way, measures up to those who declined the designation. EDWARD A. JOHNSON'S acceptance of the designation is an assurance to Negro citizens that, if he is elected, they will have a representative in Congress who will grace the position. He is a graduate of two universities. After a long career as a principal in the public school systems of Raleigh and Atlanta, he became dean of the Law School at Shaw University. He has been an Assistant United States District Attorney, the chairman of a Congressional district in North Carolina, an Alderman of the city of Raleigh, and a delegate to three national conventions. Coming to New York in 1907, he was elected to the New York State Assembly in 1917, the first of his race to win a seat in the Legislature. In addition to this record, he is the author of several able books on the history of the Negro. MR. JOHNSON is ideally qualified to represent his race in Congress, and if the voters of Harlem register anything like their full strength, they can send him there. GET TOGETHER BEHIND PAIGE IN SPITE of the defection of certain supposedly progressive Negroes, the Negro citizens of Harlem will have a chance to express their will in the September primaries. The Board of Elections has made Myles A. Paige's candidacy valid, and he will be up as a candidate for Assemblyman from the Nineteenth District. AFFAIRS in this district have long been an eyesore to every intelligent Negro, and have made a farce of the idea of representative government. A district predominantly Negro, it has always had a white man for a leader and its representative in the Assembly. Whenever Negroes were about to gain recognition their efforts were nullified by a certain group of their own people. This people, strange to say, have always spoken eloquently of building up their race, and it is almost unbelievable to see them so busily trying to pull their race down. MYLES PAIGE'S candidacy will give race-loyal Negroes a chance to assert themselves and secure Negro leadership. A handful of turncoats cannot keep Myles Paige out of the Assembly, if the people get behind him. Get together, citizens, and sweep Paige into office. WHO WON THE WAR? DR DREW of the British army says that the United States in the World War was more important, that the defeat of Germany more the American army began to fight the United States army contends that, we the United States, the Allies could not have men marshal columns of arguments to support their assertions. IS AN ARGUMENT that will never count of everybody. Every nation that four counts is convinced that its efforts turned the nation that suffered more than any, count of the German attack, and whose most decisive defeats on the Germans that makes no claims. The level-head satisfied at winning the war to quarrel MAJOR DREW of the British army says that the part played by the United States in the World War was neither decisive nor important, that the defeat of Germay was assured before the American army began to fight. General Reilly of the United States army contends that, without the aid of the United States, the Allies could not have won the war. Both men marshal columns of arguments and statistics to support their assertions. THIS IS AN ARGUMENT that will never end to the satisfaction of everybody. Every nation that fought on the winning side is convinced that its efforts turned the scale. France, the nation that suffered more than any, who bore the full brunt of the German attack, and whose generals inflicted the most decisive defeats on the Germans, is the only one that makes no claims. The level-headed French were too satisfied at winning the war to quarrel about the credit. Her example should be followed by the other nations. THE MAN IN THE STREET Letters to the Editor to be published under this heading should be plainly written on one side of the paper only, and should not exceed 250 words in length. Your full name and address must be given, although this information does not necessarily have to be printed. ```markdown ``` THE erudite editor of The Crisis has said that any Negro who votes for Herbert Hoover is a fool. A great many Negroes will undoubtedly vote for Hoover at the risk of bringing down upon their heads the malediction of the wise and prudent editor, who upbraideth all men who dissent from his infallible judgment, without stint or parsimony. The Good Book tells that he who sayeth to his brother "Thou fool" shall be in danger of the hell fire. Those self-deluded fools who persist in voting for Herbert Hoover, despite this maledictory admonition, will doubtless extend to the self-appointed political censor an urgent invitation to pay an immediate visit to the place that burneth with brimstone and fire. On the other hand, it is decreed that those who vote for Al Smith should initiate the exercable Judas and commit immediate suicide. I think that all will agree that he who commits suicide is a fool; therefore, all Negroes who support either the Republican or the Democratic ticket in the approaching campaign, according to the Crisis' logic, will be under the control of that awful designation. After all, was not Shakespeare right when he exclaimed, "What fools these mortals be!" The Negro is dressed up in his Pullman Porters Writer Praises B. S. C. P. Want All Porters to Organize. To the Editor of The Amsterdam News, Dear Sir: Help yourself and others will help you. It was three years ago that the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters was born. At the head of this movement was placed Mr. A. Philip Randolph as general organizer. Now there is no doubt about Mr. Randolph having the ability to lead the Pullman porters to victory, if they will only stand solid behind him. I wish to say, however, that this is not only a Pullman porters' fight, but it is a race fight for economic justice. Why should not therefore, every Negro institution in America, all the churches, societies and Negro business institute fall in with the Amsterdam News and back the Brotherhood? Just a few weeks ago The Amsterdam News gave a benefit show at the Lafayette Theatre, notting between $1,500 and $2,000. This money was turned over to the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Poor Mr. Randolph, Mr. Lancaster or any other official of the Brotherhood, but to help function in this great fight for economic freedom for the race in general. Can't we see that when we raise the standard of 120 fullman porters and animals that will raise the standard of black men and women of America and of the world? When the Pullman porters get more wages, others will seek ways to have their wages raised. Fin- will all be paid a living wage. Then they will live their homes, finer churches and give our children a better education. A word to the porters who are paid $150 a month. Some of you have good runs and you are doing well, but out of 12,000 porters only about 1,000 have good runs. Your good run should be no reason to should not organize. Remember those porters dead-head over the road for weeks at a time have got to live; too their children have just as much right in college as the children of any other race, but it can't be done out of $72.50 per month. That will just about pay their rent in New York, Chicago and a number of other cities. What about food and clothing? Very truly yours. W. S. SMILEY. New York. Sept. 3, 1928.

It is one of the fallings of human nature that, when one is dressed up, he will inevitably find some place to go—even though he goes to the wrong place. It is unbearable boredom to endure the ennui of the Yankee yawl—"Nowhere to go, and nothing doing to home." Dr. Du [Picture of a man in a suit with a tie]. - Kelly Milier - Bots' dictum would involve the Negro in a double acting dilemma. The Republican party is his traditional political home. If he stays there he is a fool; if he fares forth he will commit suicide. The Negro, in the midst of his be- published under this heading she is in length. Your full name and necessarily have who is willing to sign any papers to substantiate that false accusation, with the exception of the writer of that letter you will not find him in the Sixteenth precinct station house. Captain John J. Noble has not shown any malice toward any group of patrolmen in the Sixteenth precinct because of color. Since he assumed command there on January 1 of this year, if there was an incident, the third of Captain Noble as to white and colored policemen, it has not been noticeable. I am not an "Uncle Toun" Neum who seeks the good-will of anyone by upholding them in mistreating colored people. On the other hand, what is the good of letting a moron such as the persecutor unwarranted and disgraceful letter, create a condition of intolerance or prejudice among a bunch of men who are working side by side every day in the year? There is nothing to gain by letters of this type but intolerance. If there has been any complaint against a patrolman by a citizen or supervise officer, it should be charged according to the charge and not according to color, The Sixteenth preclinct could certainly get along without "the sap" who wrote that letter. In my statement I am not implicating any other polgeman—I represent myself. (Signed) ALLEN J. BENTON, Sixteenth Preclinct New York City, August 29. Negroes Everywhere Should Vote Alike, for Their National Issues Are the Same. To the Editor of The Amsterdam News, Dear Sir: There is no time at which the mind of an American citizen ought to turn to politics as during a presidential campaign. The Negro citizen is a part of the people who he has the right, and the duty to himself, to help select the servants of the people. Anyone familiar with the history of the suffrage from Magna Carta to the Nineteenth Amendment, knows of its efficacy as a securer of civil rights. But the suffrage must be exercised intelligently to have any effect. For the Nineteenth intelligent voting means its recognition and its pensive duty of self-service, and its being welded with such dexterity as to achieve desired results. It is essential that Nintegra use every diligence to find out what candidates, by their past and present conduct in office, can be expected to defend the interests of the Negro. It is essential that Nintegra use every diligence to be welded into a unit. For 50 per cent Negroes vote Democratic and 50 per cent Republican, it were as well—or rather as bad—that none voted at all. There is no reason why all Negroes should not vote allie. All the national issues are common to all Negroes. Prohibition is the only one that marks a difference in the that the benefit of prohibition is an accomplished fact that ponderes to the benefit of humanity. Why, then, should it Suffrage wilderness, wants constructive advice; his would-be guide, philosopher and friend confounds him with the counsel of despair. As a matter of fact, this is the most perplexing campaign in the history of the American electorate. The Negro is no whit more than a third of white voters. There will be no voters next November who can support their party with 100 per cent loyalty and devotion, unless it be the white and black Bourbons, who never learn anything new nor forget anything old. Few, if any, voters will support either Mr. Hoover or Mr. Smith because he believes in all the things that either candidate stands for. It is no longer a question of party, but one of principle. Each voter must see the role of principles which he deems most vitiate to the local and national welfare and vote for the party which for the time espouses these principles. The agrarian will vote for the party and the candidate which he thinks will bring readiest farm relief. Those who do not believe in prohibition will support Al Smith, who embodies their hopes. On the other hand, the genuina advocates of prohibition will line up with Hoover, who stands with both feet on the Eighteenth Amendment. The Negro's befuddlement may be a little more confusing than his white fellow electors. He must represent his republicans, with voting their abandonment of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, or stand for Smith, who is wet. While he thinks of the recreancy of the Grand Old Party, he cannot forget the tradi- THE STREET could be plainly written on one side of the address must be given, although this information to be printed. stand in the way of racial unity in politics? Unless the scattered Negro votes are minted into a hard medium of exchange with which our economies and social status can be brought, all our wallings will fall on ears that are deaf and hearts that mock.

To the Editor of The Amsterdam News Dear Sir: Only last week during the hot weather I witnessed a white ice dealer refuse to serve some of our people, who for the past ten years patronized him and assisted him to buy many houses here. He bought a new people. The next morning, when it was cool, I saw those very people whom he discriminated against go right back to him as if nothing had occurred.

All entries for the awards, which will consist of gold and bronze medals carrying honorariums of $3,500, must be submitted by September 10. This announcement was made yesterday by Dr. George E. Haynes, secretary of the Commission on the Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches, who is administering the awards for the Harmon Foundation. "The recent death of William E. Harmon, who generously made full provision for carrying on the work of the Harmon Foundation through endowment, has given impetus to the interest of Negroes in these awards for Distinguished Achievement," said Dr. Haynes. "One important result of the past two years of the awards has been an increasing appreciation by Negroes that their outstanding creative work will be judged byuries of men and women well known in their respective fields, who will consider the merits of candidates on the basis of their accomplishments. The general public received these awards with a new appreciation" of the high quality and value of the achievement of Negro men and women. "Another outgrowth of the nwards," continued Dr. Haynes, has been the annual exhibit of the museum, which has again next January. 3:15 on international House, on Riverside drive.

Al Smith, who believes in political equality in the North, is silent on the same question in the South. Mr. Moover, who abolished segregation in the Department of Commerce, does not dare defend his principle in face of the "illy white" demand in the South. Although the Negro is bound by every consideration of racial self-respect to bring the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the floor, he finds that it has been ignored by mutual conviction. So far as concerns the human rights issue in this campaign, dishonors are even. Prohibition is the residuary issue of divisive significance. If the Negro deems this question vital to the welfare of the Negro and of the nation, as I do, then, despite all other drawbacks and disadvantages, he will support that party which makes most of that vital issue. Not only will he not be a tool for such advocacy, but he will thereby avenge the one party which has sulked in his tent won no battles before the walls of Troy; Achilles buckling on his armor in behalf of the one thing that affected him most, despite his list of grievances against the leader of the Greeks, brought victory to his cause and glory to his name. The Negro, while not a fool, has been fooled for the past forty years by the blandishments of pre-election promises. In this respect he can be fooled, longer than he would ever open and vote for the sound principle of prohibition; he will thus escape the predicted folly of the fool and the tragic fate of the suicide.

IN THIS volume we have an up-to-date book on Liberia. Dr. Sibley visited Liberia in 1925 on behalf of the American Advisory Committee on Education and Dr. Westermann, of the University of Berlin, spent many years on the West African coast. One sees that Dr. Sibley is an imperialist, but it is perhaps impossible to be anything else when face to face with this impoverished republic. From the short historical sketch we learn that, while many of the early Liberians suffered severely, later a degree of prosperity came to the new republic: coffee proved a remunerative crop, cheap labor was at hand, and some could bask in their new homes as comfortable as the early Southern planters. But in 1875 trade declined. Brazil an overwhelming rival in coffee production and Liberia and her American Negroes suffered. comes for them to "graduate." The boys endure a Spartan discipline and learn early to be man. What grows increasingly clear in this story is the difference in viewpoint of the man who owes allegiance to his clan and the man who owes no allegiance to any power but that of the government under which lives. We the mates, as they become westernized, lose their spirit of co-operation and be Today a degree of financial prosperity seems assured in the opening up of the rubber industry by the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company. This volume does not give the terms of Liberin's concession to the Firestone people, but it does give the company the company intends to distribute rubber-growing areas in different sections, so that natives will not have to go hundreds of miles from their homes. They will also encourage the individual worker to grow his own rubber and sell to the company. Belgium has made us think of the rubber industry with horror. American capital in this little country may pay for a human. That it will imperil the country's liberty, seems probable. The chapters on native life by Dr. Westerman are the best in the book. They give a clear, entertaining picture of the clan, its government, its judicial proceedings, its family life, at least that aristocratic section chosen to attend Poro, the boys' school, and Sande, the girls' school. The children are taken from their parents, who may not know even whether they are alive or dead until the time Report On Man Divorce for N WASHINGTON, Sept. 3. merce announces that, accord there were 118,719 marriages in the year 1927, as compared w ing a decrease of 2,246 or 1.91 07,454 marriages performed. Report On Marriage and Divorce for New York, 1927 WASHINGTON, Sept. 3. — The Department of Commerce announces that, according to the returns received, there were 118,719 marriages performed in New York during the year 1927, as compared with 120,965 in 1926, representing a decrease of 2,246 or 1.9 per cent. In 1926 there were 97,454 marriages performed. During the year 1927 there were 5,000 divorces granted in the State as compared with 4,674 in 1926, representing an increase of 326 or 7 per cent. In 1916 there were 3,269 divorces granted. There were 870 marriages annulled in 1927, as compared with 364 in 1926. The estimated population of New York was Dr. Wissler Writes on Australian "Blacks" In the Scientific American for September, Dr. Clark Wissler tells of his experiences among the Australian "Blacks," a name given the natives. Dr. Wissler is one of the few whites who has been permitted to see the sacred ceremonies of these natives. Conditions in the western part of Australia tend to make the habits of the natives primitive. Water is too scarce to permit bathing; hence no bathing is possible. But the natives live out of doors and go nude, except to appear in the presence of a dog when the Negroes day laws require them to don a few pieces of clothing of some sort. "At first sight, the dark color and the broad noses of the native Australian remind one of the Negro, but once in the native camps the reaction of the group is not at all the same as one that object from the American Indian," he writes. The native Australian seems nearer the white man than either the Negro or the Indian. He is a suggestion of what all races were in the beginning. SECOND thoughts are best.

The boys endure a Spartan discipline and learn early to be men. What grows increasingly clear in this story is the difference in view of the government since to his clan and the man who owes no allegiance to any power but that of the government under which he lives. Will the natives, as they become westernized, lose their spirit of co-operation and become crass individualists? One question the spirit of mutual heightness. We gain the impression after we have finished this book that the Liberian of American ancestry is learning to accept the educated native. Once Liberian society feared to do this, like the white trader held aloof from the native. The few odd 25,000 might have been engulfed among the savages of the Hinterland. Now education in the forest, bringing the brightest young people to western schools, and, since there is only a cultural not a racial feeling against intermarriage, natives and Americans are mulling. This helps the stock. That civilization is increasing in Liberia is certain. We must not, however, expect the civilization of the temperate clime in a land where the annual rainfall is 179 inches, where driver ants abound and where tropic diseases from which I write, has had a taste of humidity this summer. It would not rise to the heights that it does if it had this humid atmosphere the year around. marriage and New York, 1927 The Department of Coming to the returns received, performed in New York during with 120,965 in 1926, represent- per cent.

A Soliloquy FROM out the bonteous store of life I should not seek a giant share; Nor yet immunity from strife. My destined burden hath to bear. I should not rue my wretched lot, And for mere vagaries to pine; Nor thru share craft like some poor lot, A lifetime spend to make them mine. Although deep rooted in my breast Ambition, like a canker graws Unceasingly—no pause—no rest— Upon my sore and fretted jaws. Reproach me, chide me. O my soul! This mortal hindrance blast and burn. Celestial guide! Purge thou the whole. Like burnished gold, so let me turn. Thus from all earthly dress made free, Enriched with thoughts that upward fly. Like an ethereal minstrel, so let me In sweet contentment soar on high. R. THEODORE GIBSON. (Reproach.)
