FATHER KNICKERBOCKER HONORS QUARTERMASTER
Tuttle Joins City Executive in Lauding Exploits of Negroes on Liner — Quartermaster Hailed as Great Human Benefactor
Lionel Licorish, young Barbadian quartermaster of the Vestris, who snatched twenty passengers from a watery grave when the Lamport & Holt vessel foundered off the Virginia Capes two weeks ago, had his greatest triumph Monday when Mayor James J. Walker formally received him at the City Hall and paid him tribute on behalf of the city.
city and the world, his mates, the West Indian seamen and firemen who for two days battled to keep the vessel going, stood cleared of charges of cowardice. Their testimony, that of passengers and the public statement of United States Attorney Charles Tuttle wiped away the brand placed upon them when first reports trickled into port. James Weldon Johnson of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People made the presentation speech when the city executive and assemblage gathered to pay their respects to the modest and reserved sailor. Mr. Johnson characterized Llicorish as the greatest hero in the world today. He came not as an individual who has achieved greatness, the speaker said, but as a representative of his men. Following him came Attorney Tuttle, who declared himself representative of the United States Government, which, too, owed its debt of gratitude to the guest of the city. Of the acts of "courage and valor coming from the disaster, none shines brighter than the examples of the Negro race." he contended.
Draws Straus Out
Nathan Straus, 30-year-old Jewish chanceler and philanthropist, declared that he had never before paid the Mayor n visit at the City Hall and came this time because he wanted to see the young seaman "more than any other person in the world." Mr. Straus last week started a $20,000 fund for Licorish by contributing $250. He has also made note in his engagement book that the quartermaster is to dine with him and his family at an early date.
Mayor Walker, who came in exactly twenty minutes late, was no less profuse in his praise of the acts of the hero. He was assisted by Grover Whalen, chairman of the official reception committee. True to his curiosity of Injection into his speeches, the Mayor caused a "blip of smiles when he assured Iphilee that he was the only man who had led Mr. Straus to visit the City Hall. "I don't look upon you as a member of any group." The Mayor told the unassuming youth. "I regard you as a member of the great human face and a benefactor of humanity."
No person of prominence welcomed there, he declared, has honored the City Hall more. The Mayor then assured Licephish that the city

Short Session of Congress Monday
Few Bills on Calendar of Especial Interest to Negroes
BY LOUIS R. LAUTIER.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 26.—Very little or no legislation particularly affecting Negroes is expected to be passed in the short session of the seventeenth Congress which meets Monday.
The only bill of peculiar interest to Negroes on the calendar of either the Senate or the House is a bill authorizing Federal appropriations for Howard University. It was passed by the House March 29, and reported to the Senate April 2.
The object of this bill is to authorize Federal appropriations for Howard University.
The President on March 7 recommended legislation authorizing an increase in the salary of the minister and consul general to Liberia from $5,000 to $10,000 a year. The Senate referred the message of the President to the committee on foreign relations, but this committee failed to report a bill embodying his recommendation before the adjournment of the Congress on May 29.
William T. Francis of St. Paul, Minna, is present minister resident and consul general to Liberia. He is required to perform both diplomatic and consular functions. For this dual service he receives a salary of $5,000 less than any other minister of the United States.
Representative Victor L. Berger, Socialist of Wisconsin, who was defeated in the last election, introduced a bill in the House to punish State and municipal officers who fail to take proper precautions to protect individuals from mob attacks. This bill was referred to the committee on the judiciary.
There are several bills pending in both the Senate and House which are inimical to Negroes. The most obnoxious are those introduced by Senator Coleman L. Blease, Democrat, of South Carolina. They are in the committees to which they were referred. Action on them is not likely.
One of the measures introduced by Senator Blease is a joint resolution to amend the Constitution so as to prohibit the intermarriage of the colored and white races. He proposed a twentieth amendment to the Constitution. It would be as follows:
"The marriage of a white person with a Negro or mulatto shall be unlawful and void. Congress shall provide by law for the punishment of the officer of the law, or minister or any other person qualified to perform the marriage ceremony, who shall attempt to or perform such ceremony."
Senator Blease also introduced a bill to require separate accommodations for white and colored passengers on street cars in the District of Columbia.
Later Senator Blease offered au

Purse Snatcher Nabbed in Subway
Attack on Woman in Wash-room Recalls Old Murder
Following his alleged attack on a young woman in the washroom at the 110th street station of the Lenox avenue subway Sunday night, James Brown, 26, 22 West 128th street, was questioned for several hours by the police in connection with the murder of a woman in the City Hall Station of the B. M. T. subway a few years ago.
The young woman, Miss Dorothea Girillo, white, 202 Bleecker street, charges that Brown after assaulting her snatched her handbag containing $6 and fled out of the washroom. Her screams brought several passengers to her aid. Brown leaped off the platform and ran along the downtown tracks, passing under the tunnel leading to the Ninety-sexth street, station, where he was finally captured by Detective Hollingworth of the Seventeenth division. The alleged stolen purse was found in his possession, the police say.
Brown, according to the ploice, concealed himself in the women's washroom at the 110th street subway station. He tied a string to the electric light. By pulling the string he extinguished the light, she police say. Brown, it is charged, then struck Miss Crillo and snatched the dag from her hand. The police say Brown was previously arrested on a similar charge.
Arraigned Monday before Magistrate Weil in Harlem Court on a charge of petty larceny Brown was held in $5,000 ball for trial in Special Sessions.
Teacher Complains
WASHINGTON. Nov. 26.—Denominating the practice of soliciting funds from teachers to give testimonials and banquets to officials as a growing evil in the public schools. Miss Georgiana R. Simpson, a teacher in the Dunbar High School, has asked the Board of Education to take some steps to stop it.
amendment to this bill providing that in case a white person desires to ride with a colored person, and the colored person does not object, the white person upon request may be allowed to ride with the colored person.
JEALOUSY GOADED WIFE STABS RIVAL TO DEATH IN ROW
Jealousy, the green-eyed monster, claimed another victim Monday morning in the stabbing to death of Maud Gary, 35, 305 West 138th street, in Apartment 33, 246 West 146th street, about 1:20 a.m. The police arrested Elsie Realy, 39, 165 West 127th street, wife of "Doc" Realy, at her home shortly after the stabbing, and charged her with murdering Mrs. Gary. Mrs. Realy is said to have caught the other woman with her husband.
Howard-Lincoln Football Game
The results of the Howard-Lincoln Football Game will be posted on the Bulletin Board of The Amsterdam News at the end of each quarter Thanksgiving afternoon. The game is scheduled to begin at 2 P.M. Telegraph service has been arranged with the Western Union Telegraph Company.
Mrs. Realy visited her husband at the 146th street address. When she entered the apartment an altercation arose between her and Mrs. Gary. There was a penkine lying on the table and the infuriated Mrs. Realy snatched it up, opened the sharp blade and lunged at Mrs. Gary. With a savage thrust she buried the blade deep in the wo-
man's throat, severing an artery, the police reported. As the alleged rival for her husband's affections slumped to the floor, Mrs. Realy dashed from the apartment.

ing Realy, were terrified, but someone rushed out and called Patrolman Bevans of the West 153th street station. He commandeered a passing taxi cab and started with the dying woman to Harlem Hospital. She died on the way.
Detective Stapleton and others of the West 153th street station were called into the case, and the search for Mrs. Realy began. She was found at her home, where she was placed under arrest on a charge of homicide.
1 Freed,1 Convicted Of Fortune Telling
Mrs. Hetty Johnson Proves Alibi — Sentence Suspended on Effiong
A man and a woman were arraigned Thursday before Magistrate Flood in Harlem Court on charges of fortune telling made by Patrolwoman Nettle Sweatman of Chief Inspector Lahey's staff.
Mrs. Hattie Johnson, 45 West 12th street, who described herself as a minister of the gospel, was charged by the policeman with accepting $2 treasured her for telling how fortune. The accused woman ceased into a crystal, the policeman said, and then told her that two men, one tall and the other short, wanted to marry her. She was advised to marry the short man, the policeman said.
Mrs. Johnson denied the charge and produced witnesses to prove that at the time she is alleged to have told the fortune of the patrolwoman she was employed for a wealthy woman living in the Park Central Hotel. The Magistrate stated he was of the opinion that the policeman had made a mistake as to the day she visited Mrs. Johnson and had her fortune told and discharged the latter.
Edit Efflong, 32, 165 West 12th street, who described himself as a West African scientist, was found guilty of telling the fortune of Patrolwoman Sweatman and was released with a suspended sentence. She visited him in his home on October 6, the patrolwoman said, and was taken into a room in which was a skeleton and five skulls, she said.
Efflong, after receiving $2. is alleged to have told the policewoman that a woman was going to make trouble for her and that this woman would use a weapon in attacking her.
Bond Is Recalled In Near-Riot Case
Clarence Donald and St. William Grant Committed to Tombs Prison
Withdrawal of the bond of the two unconvicted principals in the Lenox avenue near-riot of last summer and their commitment to the Tombs temporarily halted the writing of the final chapter in the case last Wednesday. Special Sessions set December 18 for the hearing of the appeal of Clarence Donald, 2328 Seventh avenue, leading figure in the disturbance and alleged victim of police maltreatment.
Donald is protesting a sentence of ten days in the Workhouse imposed in Heights Court last July following his arrest and severe beating. St. William Grant, 130 West 139th street, who testified in behalf of Donald in the magistrate's court, is accused by William Ellis, white, of robbing him. Ellis made his charge after testifying against Donald. The $5,000 bond of Donald was recalled by Junius M. Greene, bondsman, 168 West 136th street, and the man returned to jail. Green also recalled the surreity of $2,000 advanced for Grant.
Mr. Green told The Amsterdam News on Friday that he had received information which led him to the belief that the defendants might attempt to leave the city. The two were committed under the same bail. Pel of is expressed in some circles that the conviction of Pedro Summer, 234 West 144th street of assasinat Policeman Irwin Counsell, of the same disturbance added its weight to the bondsman's fear for his security.
E. B. Knox, high official of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, of which the men were members, and personal representative of President Marcus Garvey, declined to comment upon the organization's present attitude toward the prisoners. He referred a reporter to a subordinate, who was not in when the writer called. Mr. Knox was bitter in his denunciation of police following the disturbance and declared his association would back the men to the limit.
CASHIER ORDERED TO HAND OUT CASH THROUGH WINDOW
Harlem policemen were thrown into feverish activity from 9 o'clock Sunday evening until early Monday morning, following a most daring holdup at the box office of the Lafayette Theatre, 2227 Seventh avenue, and the bold robbery of a speakeasy at 147th street and Seventh avenue, about an hour apart.
In the latter case a pistol battle took place between the police and two prisoners. Nine men, ranging in age from 19 to 27, were finally taken into custody when the police threw out "the dragnet," consisting of plainclothes men from the Thirteenth, Thirteenth-A, Fourteenth and Sixteenth precincts, under the command of Acting Lieutenant Hodge, assisted by Detective O'Hara of the last named precinct.
17-Year-Old Girl Sought as Kidnapper
Police have been unable to discover the motive of the alleged kidnapping of eight-year-old Anna Smith, 68 West 142d street, by seventeen-year-old Charmaine Carman, alias Charmaine Hunt, who until recently lived at 1340 Park avenue, near East 101st street. As late as Monday the police had not succeeded in learning the whereabouts of the two girls.
Mrs. Laura Johnson, foster mother of the child, 68 West 142d street, first reported her missing to Detective Webber of the West 135th street station on Nov. 13. The Missing Persons Bureau was notified but on Thursday evidence came to the attention of the police which led them to believe that the child had been kidnapped.
Miss Carnad is described as of dark complexion, 5 feet 5 inches tall, and weighing 122 pounds.
5 Youths Dismissed On Serious Charge
Girl Denies Attempt Was Made to Assault
The serious charge against Samuel Reid, 18, 2156 Fifth avenue; Robert Whiting, 19, 2137 Madison avenue; Douglass Stokes, 19, 45 East 134th street, and William James, 18, 16 West 136th street, was changed to disorderly conduct and dismissed upon the recommendation of Assistant District Attorney Flinnegan and Officer Roderick of the Children's Society in Heights Court Friday by Magistrate Dodge.
Testimony revealed that a fifth boy had been involved in the affair in the person of Arthur Massey, 15, 51 East 134th street, who was arraigned in Children's Court and dismissed also.
The boys were first charged with disorderly conduct upon their arrest in St. Nicholas Park at 135th street, but the more serious charge was brought by Officer Sinet of the Children's Society, who gave to the press the report that the youths had attempted an assault upon the girl, whose name is being withheld by The Amsterdam News. The girl denied on the witness stand that any attempt to assault her was made.
Did Professors Swap Ratings for Kisses?
WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 26. Three of the four professors dismissed by the board of trustees of Howard University, Inst. June upon the recommendations of President Mordecal W. Johnson will be given a hearing before the next executive committee meeting. They are Lorenzo Dow Turner, a doctor of philosophy, who was a professor of English; Moses Franklin Peters, who was an Instructor in English, and William Henry Jones, who was a professor of sociology. The other, Albert Sydney Beckham, who was an assistant professor in psychology, is employed in New York. He is not joining with the others, who are seeking to establish the innocence of the accusations upon which they were dismissed. The dismissed professors are seeking exoneration and reinstatement in their positions. They were accused of misconduct involving adult students. The charges were first made public, in the Hillton, student publication, under the caption "Just Rumor." The alleged that certain professors, without naming them, were swapping high ratings for kisses.
The police report that their captives are members of a gang that have staged, according to their alleged confessions, thirty-five holdups within the past month. Among this number was that of the jewelry store of Samuel Unger, white, 2459 Eighth avenue, near 131st street, which was robbed of $400 in jewelry at the point of a gun on Nov. 13.
Cases Up Today
All the prisoners were arraigned in Heights Court Monday morning before Magistrate McQuade, who held rill but one under $5,000 ball for a further hearing today. One was denied bail in the person of William Dorsey, 19, 233 West 136th street.
The others were George Goldsboro, 19, 246 West 149th street; Johnnie Walker, 19, allas "Policy Pete," and John Ronan, 100 West 130th street; James White, 24, allas "Kid Razor"; 38 West 132d street; George Capers, 27, 226 West 149th street; Herbert Nelson, 21, 2066 Seventh avenue; Rudolph Richardson, 27, 127 West 134th street; Douglas Keyes, 19, allas "Hickey"; 65 West 129th street, and Lemie Washington, 23, allas "Turkey Buzzard"; 239 West 127th street.
In addition to the charge of robbery, a charge of violating the Sullivan law in that they possessed revolvers was brought ager Dorssey, Goldsboro, Capers, Nelson and White. There are two charges of robbery against Dorssey and Goldsboro. The police said they searched Dorssey's room and found 400 cartridges of 22 calibre like the gun found in his possession.
Most Daring Robbery
Vivian Cooper, 222 West 141st street, cashier at the Lafayette Theatre, described the box office robbery to a reporter for The Amsterdam News.
She said: "It was nine o'clock and people were buying tickets. The policeman on the beat had just gone into the lobby. When I looked up to take the money for the next ticket I saw a gun poked through the window. At first I thought that someone was playing a joke on me until I saw a mean looking man. "He said to me, 'Pass over all the money or I'll blow your brains out.' I was too scared to move, for then I knew it was real. "Hurry up, he said. 'Hand it out before I count two;' and he put the gun further in and I gave him the money. Then they ran, two of them. When they went I let the world know what had happened."
Indeed, her screams alarmed the community. She had been robbed of $4.25. Frank Schiffman, the theatre manager, expressed the belief that all of the gang was present, ready with angry weapons to do battle with anyone who might attempt to interfere.
Several months ago three white "gentlemen hands" walked straight into the theatre's private office and compelled Bernard Burtt, the house manager, to open the safe and hand them a few hundred under a gun's muzzle. They are reported to have been captured some time afterward.
Alarm Spread
The police spread an alarm with lightning rapidity and every policeman on every post was notified to be on the jookout for the robbers. Patrolman Eugene Zerfas of the West 155th street station was on duty near 147th street and Seventh (Continued on Page 2).
CORRECTIONS
It is Miss Mary Jane Brown, 256 West 135th street, who is supervisor of the Negro girls employed by the Plautner's Tea Rooms, in Greenwich Village, and not Miss Ann Coler, a head, waitress in one of the company's ten rooms, as reported on p9 of last week's issue of The Amsterdam News. Miss Coler does not live at 2588 Seventh avenue.
The resources of $251,918,698 of the Chelsea Exchange Bank of New York represents an increase over last year of 24 per cent, and not 284 per cent as stated in last week's issue of The Amsterdam News through a typographical error.

would do well to receive him because of the contribution of the Negro to the life of New York. Because of the city's cosmopolitan spirit it has achieved its greatness. Mayor Walker declared. The same spirit applied to the nation would add to its importance, he asserted.
Welcomed Black Arm
Branding racial discrimination as unworthy of any man, he declared the perishing whites were glad for the protection of a black arm about them when the sea clutched madly for their lives. Then no man asked the race of the rescuer, he told his hearers. Had there been less of the spirit of prejudice aboard the Vestibrite before the calamity there possibly would have been no lives lost, the Mayor asserted.
Merely Matter of Duty
Licorish, who dived repeatedly in the shark-infested Atlantic to pull drowning men and women to safety, showed signs of fright as he responded to the official city greeting. He soon regained his composure, however.
"The American people are so loving," he beamed, "I never want to get out of sight of them." Of his exploits he said little, merely assuring his welcomes that saving twenty people was simply a matter of duty. A battery of cameras faced the quartermaster as the city executive and prominent members of the audience posed with him.
From the reception chamber the party went to the City Hall steps, where tranquil atmosphere, calm and there were posed before. There he was "shot" by the news real photographers as he beamed his brightest smile and stood arm in arm with Mr. Strans.
As the welcome ended the sailor was bestoged by an army of autograph seekers. White girls, young Negro men and newsboys crowded to shake his hand. He was finally rescued and whisked away in an automobile by his manager, George Caldwell.
To Tour Country
Last week Licortish deserted the sea, temporarily at least, and turned to vaudeville. He made stage appearances in the local Keith houses. From over the country offers for appearances have come. Next week he will go on tour with Caldwell, who embody the Keith theatrical enterprises.
From the New York Times he received $714, and will receive a gold medal from Mr. Straus.
A protest meeting, which rapped the Mayor for not receiving the crew, the theaters for exploiting Licorish and other Negro sailors, and Lampart and Holt for instructing the men "not to talk" was held last Wednesday night at St. Luke's Hall, 125 West 130th street. The daily press came in for arranging George Washington to attend the women's Progressive Union; Mrs. William Burroughs of the Teachers' Union, and Richard B. Moore of the Negro Labor Congress. The investigation was continued today by Attorney Tuttle, who sought to definitely establish the responsibility for loss of 113 persons, 34 of whom were Negroes. That the U. S. official put little credence in the testimony of the white chief engineer, James A. Adams, and Reginald A. Hussey, and placed the "black gang" with deserving its post, was indicated in a court statement by him.
"It is high time to correct statements that the Negro members of the crew were cowardly," the Federal Attorney told the court Thursday. "The evidence shows that the Negro firemen stayed down in the stokhouse as long as the crew were possible evidence will show that Negro members of the crew showed herolism after the ship sank, going about rescuing people in the water."
To The Amsterdam News the Attorney said: "It is clear that the Negroes did the finest work during the sinking and after the wreck."
The statements of Mr. Tuttle were backing Joseph Lothill, slorc, who wildly described the lack of discipline among officers and the patience and fortitude of the men, who toiled waist deep in water while the ship slowly turned over. His mates corroborated his story.
Additional weight was given to the testimony before Tuttle when Bremen were captured by the Wyoming and landed at Norfolk, arrived here last Tuesday.

Licorish was called to the stand Friday morning and retold his dramatic story of the rescue of twenty persons. He added a hithertofore untold episode when he told of how he narrowly escaped death when the COAL CO., INC.

Vestris' bulkhead smashed beneath the weight of the slipping cargo. He was buried beneath the wreckage as he lay in a berth, Licoris said. The young quartermaster also recounted how he took the wheel of the ship Sidura to the course with difficulty because of the list to starboard. He said, under questioning by Commissioner 'O'Nell, that he had carried radio messages from Captain Carey to the wireless room, but had no knowledge of their contents. Licoris's account of how he slipped the straps off a boat on the deck and swam off while the ship sank was received with interest by the art of climbing aboard the lifeboat and picking up oars before starting on his errand of mercy.
The Lamport and Holt flagship Voltaire pulled anchor at Fourteenth street pier, Hoboken, Saturday and, with several of the Vestri's survivors, nosed its way toward Barbades and South America. The press proclaimed that eighty West Indian seamen home, but subpoenas by the Federal office here halted several white and colored members of the crew. Three seamen and a ship's storekeeper, members of the "black gang," told the first full detalled account of their experience during the war in the Netherlands News on Friday evening. They were Frederick Gill, 44; St Clare Jordan, 33; Perclival Waldron, 40, and Charles Harris, 50, all of whom reside at the Seaman's Church Institute. It has been estimated that Negro members of the crew saved the lives people, colored and white, including stewards, firemen and passengers.
Harrington L. Williams, greaser on the Vestris, spoke in behalf of the Negro crew Sunday night at a meeting at the Nazarene Congregational Church, Grand avenue and Fulton street, Brooklyn.
WORKHOUSE SENTENCE
BLASTS MAN'S DREAM
The dream of "hitting the numbers" for a comfortable sum entertained for the past few years by John Henderson, 57, 209 West Sixteenth street, faded away Monday in Special Sessions as the old man trudged out on his way to the workhouse.
Henderson, who has lived with his family at the Sixteenth street address for the past twenty-six years and was regarded as one of the substantial citizens, was arrested October 26 with the telltale slips in his pockets.

The actor used the gun as a "prop" in one of the scenes at the playhouse, and was accused of threatening a fellow performer. Baskette contended that the whole matter was one of the misunderstanding in the film that know personal revolvers could not be used on the stage.

New York State May Unmask Ku Klux Klan
ALBANY, Nov. 26—The Klu Klux Klan must unmask in New York State, and the task of doing it fails on district attorneys in every county of the state. This possibility loomed upon the horizon in a letter from Secretary of State Robert Moses to the prosecuting officer in which he told them that the enforcement of Walker law under which this "secret order" is compelled to file copies of its oaths and a list of its members, rested with them.
The attention of the district attorneys was called to the fact that the United States Supreme Court recently upheld the Walker law and declared that Article V of the civil rights law is constitutional. Secretary Moses further pointed out, however, that the Department of State is without power to dissolve a corporation or direct its activities.

plaint of Agent McCarthy of the Children's Society, who caused his arrest by Warrant Officer Nihil, after the boy had reported the assault to the Children's Society. The boy charges that, on November 13, he was seated on bony cony that he was grabbed by Stark, who attempted to eject him from the theatre. When he resisted Stark left him, but returned a short time later, McClendon said, and struck him on the back of the head with a club, inflicting a deep cut, which bled profusely. McClendon then told of being treated by a nurse who was called from Harlem Hospital. Stark denied striking the boy. He lives at 49 Division street, Brooklyn, and has a brother who is a member of the police force.

avenue when, about the hour of 10:30 P.M., just an hour and a half after the Lafayette robbery, a man ran up to him and told him that three men were acting suspiciously in the speakeasy of Thomas Greco, white. 2538 Seventh avenue, at 147th street.
Having received the alarm for the bandite Zerfas drew his gun and started on a run. He encountered the men just behind the door and commanded them to "stick him up." Instead they knocked his gun out of his hand and tripped him and, as they fled, one of the men fired two shots at him and missed. Zerfas blew his whistle and started in pursuit without waiting to pick up his gun. It is reported.
At 147th street and Eighth avenue Patrolman George Hetzler Jr., of the same station, heard the whistle and appeared just in time to do a little work with his night-stick. He felled, two of the men but the third one escaped.
The prisoners proved to be Dorsey and Goldsboro and they were held at the West 135th street police station for possible identification by Miss Cooper. When she arrived at the station house to identify the men, she told me Monday, she plausely recognized Dorsey and Goldsboro and trained his gun on her. "But that we were beating the two men so badly that I went without identifying them that night."
Two Turn Informers
Dorsay and Goldsboro, under most severe stress, informed upon other members of his gang, it is believed. There was little difficulty then in
Court Grants Elk Hearing on Appeal
James Butler Battles Extra
dition for Killing Georgia
Teacher
James Butler, 200 West 145th street, on the first skirmish of his battle, to keep from being extradited to Georgia on charges when Justice Ingraham granted his appeal for a new hearing Friday in Supreme Court.
Butler is wanted at Griffin, Ga., for the murder of Mrs. Estelle Phillips Brown, school teacher, social service and religious worker, who, relatives contend, was Butler's wife. She was beaten and strangled by the husband in a fit of jealousy in 1816, they assert.
The wanted man is a barber and a member of Monarch Lodge, J. B. P. Bissens. The fraternity has interested himself in his case and Pope B. Billips, 206 Broadway, is acting as counsel. Mr. Billips appealed the extradition decree and kept Butler from being taken South November 13.
He declared Monday that he was prepared to fight the case to a finish, and was hopeful of securing his client's freedom. The stay was secured upon discovery of an error in the extradition order.
Mrs. Bessie Coles, 36 West 129th street, a cousin of the slain woman, and her mother, Mrs. Lorenzo Johnson, of the same address, assert that rounding up the other seven men. All prisoners were fingerprinted and held for identification.
Only $28 is said to have been the proceeds of the holdup at Greco's place.
Besides Dorsey and Goldshoro, the other prisoners held in connection with the Lafayette robbery including Capers, Nelson and White. The man who escaped followed the robbery. Greco's is said to be one Robert Newton, whom the police are now searching. This man's name was given to the police by the first two prisoners. It is said.
Richardson is being held on the charge of holding up and robbing a speakeasy at $10 Southern boulevard and taking $12 cash and a watch and chain valued at $50 from Ralph Porco, white, on Nov. 20. Those implicated in the robbery of Unger's jewelry store on Nov. 12 include Washington. Walker, Keyes and two other unknown men.
the latter and a daughter, Mrs. Ella Phillips, of Griffin, Ga., positively identified Butler since his arrest here.
The extradition department at the district attorney's office and the Tombs officials declined giving any statement from the official records. The Tombs officials of the dead woman conceived that Butler was the man who was apprehended three years after the killing and later escaped. The prisoner denies knowing the women and swears he has never been in Georgia.
Blames Victim for Leap Out of Window
Albert Harris, 34, 115 West 134th street, accused of menacing with a razor Albert Armstrong, 23, 240 West 149th street, thus causing him to jump into a second story window at 230 West 146th street and fracture one leg and dislocate an arm, was held in $1,000 ball for the Grand Jury on a charge of attempted assault when arraigned Monday before Magistrate McQuade in Hefts 82. Harris denied the charge and said that on the night of the occurrence, Oct. 5, Armstrong was running a gambling chip and refused to cash the chips. "He jumped out the window to keep from paying off," Harris declared. He was released on ball.

Theft of Hat Leads To Arrest of Trio
Man Positively Identifies Three Men He Says Held Him Up
The alleged theft of a $5 hat resulted in three men being held in $25,000 bail each for the Grand Jury when they were arraigned Monday before Magistrate Well in Harlen Court on charges of robbery.
Frank Joseph, 103 West 127th street, is the owner of the hat, and he charges that the three men assaulted him before stealing his hat. The alleged assault and robbery occurred in the hallway of 32 Lenox avenue.
The accused men gave their names as Archie Brooks, 24, 111 East 130th street; Edward Clark, 28, 113 East 129th street, and Harold Thomas, 25, 151 West 123d street.
Joseph charges that Thomas paused him while Brook threatened him with a revolver. The three men, he charges, then beat and kicked him and when he screamed they grabbed his hat and ran towards the roof.
Policeman Albert and Ackerman of the West 123d street station were summoned and they arrested three men in an apartment on the top floor. They dented the charge but were positively identified by Joseph, the police say.

CHILD'S SUED FOR DISCRIMINATION
Owners of Chain of Restaurants Ignored Man Sent There by Employer
Service Refused Till Patrolman Was Called In Numerous Complaints Have Been Made
The owners of Child's Restaurants are being sued because of alleged discrimination against Clarence G. Hodges, 241 West 130th street, through Attorney William H. Hatfield Jr., white, 233 Broadway, who has been retained by Hodges, who is employed by Hixbie & Company, Inc., 400 Fifth avenue. The case was investigated by P. J. Curley, white, 355 Eighty-first street, Brooklyn. Papers were served on the Child's Company, 200 Fifth avenue, on Friday.
Everyone needs vitamins every day and none more so than the young mother. That is why easily-digested, vitamin-rich emulsified cod-liver oil, as in
is always so beneficial to a mother and her child It's the efficient way to get the full benefits of cod-liver oil, pleasantly. Scott's Emulsion is a food of special value to nursing mothers.
Hodges, who is a singer and lyric writer, is employed by Hixie's as an elevator operator. His employer sent him to one of the Child's restaurants on the northeast corner of Fifth avenue and Thirty-sixth street to get two American cheese sandwiches and a piece of chocolate cake on Friday, Nov. 16. When he entered, Hodges said, the cashier referred him to the counter, the counter to the chef, the chef to the hostess and the hostess to a waitress. The white girl stopped long enough to observe him curiously when he gave his order, then passed on without a word. Hodges said. He went back to the cashier and was again told to go to the counter, where he stood for forty-five minutes, completely ignored.
Returning to Hixie's he reported that Child's had refused to serve him and he was advised to get a police officer. Patrolman John Reilly of Traffic B accompanied him back to the restaurant, where the manager and everybody denied they had refused to serve him. He then gave his order to the hostess but the chef brought it but omitted the chocolate cake. "Why didn't you give the order right in the first place?" the chef is said to have remarked.
Finally the full order was brought by one of the waitresses who, Hodges declared, held the order out at arm's length with her face turned in the opposite direction. Patrolman Reilly was present at the time. Hodges said. The case will be tried in civil court, under the Civil Rights Act.
Race discrimination is said to be a definite and sustained policy of the Child's restaurants and many complaints have been made to newspapers by persons denied service. Damage suits on this score have been instituted against them several times it is reported.
Ax Slayer Not Yet Identified
---
Slayers
OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 26.—Solution of the ax slayer mystery, during which three persons have met death and two others were wounded, remained at a halt today as police and a nurse wrangled over a supposed identification of one suspect by a hysterical victim. Jake Bird, 24, former Utah convict, is held at the penitentiary to prevent violence while officials are attempting to fasten the crime upon him.
Meanwhile Minneapolis is holding James A. Davis of Denver, believed to have formerly lived in New York. He has an alibi that he was in Denver during the reign of terror. Chicago officials are retaining Harry Gonsha, who attacked a white fireman with a hatchet and was himself beaten with the weapon by the attacked man.
Mrs. Harold Stribiling, white, who was attacked by the mystery man last Tuesday, was reported by Police Commissioner Dunn to have said: "That is the man." Mrs. E. C. Henry, white nurse, attending the woman, declared the hysterical woman said: "I don't know. Let me look at him some other time." Stanley Haley was shot and killed Saturday in a fight with police who were making a wholesale roundup of suspects. A companion escaped. Haley was shot dead at the wheel of an automobile in which he and another man were fleeing.

New Rush Memorial Pastor Hurls Charge in Sun-
day Sermon
Harlem leaders were charged with selling the Negro vote ourright before the beginning of the elections in a sermon Sunday morning by the Rev. W. D. Douglass, new pastor of Rush Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church, 58 West 12th street. The minister, who was delivering his third morning address before his flock, hotly scored the politicians, "numbers" players and boosters of rents.
The ballot was characterized as the greatest weapon of the people by the Rev. Mr. Douglass, who is now in the post formerly held by the Rev. G. M. Oliver. "Abuse this weapon," he warned, "and you send your brothers in Georgia and Alabama back into slavery."
Much of the wrong use of the vote was attributed to what the pastor termed "overnight leaders." True leadership, he asserted, comes through long years of study and work with the people. Giving an example, he declared: "I regard Marcus Garvey as the greatest genius that ever struck American soil in the form of a black man."
The sermon dealt also with the Negro's spiritual, intellectual and industrial power. Commenting upon the latter he deplored the Harlem craze for "police" playing. Like fools, the players struggle through the snow to labor every day and come home at night to let their colns dribble into the hands of the "numbers" collectors, he said.
Opportunity and civilization have weakened the Negro spiritually, the pastor charged. Men and women active in church work in the South lose all thought of God when they reach the North, he contended.
Chief Receives Medal
A thrilling rescue of wrecked steamship passengers on the West African Coast, about twenty miles from Lagos, in Nigeria, has brought to an African chief named Olabi a silver medal and diploma from the Liverpool Shipwreck and Humane Society.
"Weak nerves," said a New York doctor recently, "in my estimation wreck more happily married lives than any other cause."
Besides making the sweetest disposition sour and irritable, nervousness is a terrible drain on your vital forces — it saps your youth and your strength and dulls your beauty. What a difference from the bright-eyed, vibrant girl he married. No wonder married life seems unbearable!
But you can get rid of your nervousness — speedily too — and become the steady-nerved, radiant woman you once were. Take a teaspoonful of Tanlac after meals and before going to bed and if it doesn't soon make a new woman of you — doesn't rid you of that tired, strained feeling — go back and get your money.
Go to your druggist now and get a bottle of Tanlac. Millions of folks have started back on the road to youth, health and happiness with this world famous tonic and there is no reason why you, too, can't begin today to rebuild your worn-out tissues and revitalize your entire system.

On Thursday morning one of those who called the day before returned and left a $20,00 deposit and then took possession on Saturday November 24th.
In writing to you I feel it is a duty to thank and command you for the valuable assistance you have given us. In passing I may say that one of our tenants who have been in the house for over two years was secured and through your agency.
I am yours very truly.

Two men were sentenced to the penitentiary for possession and sale of drugs while workhouse terms were given two. others Monday in Special Sessions Court. Justice Murphy voted for the suspension of one buyer, but his two associates demanded and saw that he paid the penalty of the law.

George Wharton, 41. 230 West Sixty-first street, was convicted of possession and sentenced to six months. Wharton was formerly employed as a longshoreman and is single.

RASKOB REFERS TO HIS
CADDY AS "SOMETHING"
"Am bringing home something" constituted the alighting and intended-to-be-funny telegram sent Saturday by John J. Raskob, financier and Democratic chief, to his wife from Biloxi, Miss, after he decided to take Frank Ivory, 15-year-old caddy, as houseboy. Ivory, whom the white press claims is known as "Black Chile," acted as caddy to Raskob at the Edgewater Gulf Hotel at Biloxi. He was efficient and his humorous side appealed to the white man, who decided to take him along when he expressed a desire to serve the financier. The orphan lad was outfitted with new clothing and taken on Raskob's private car.
The Smith-Raskob party gave Georgia State College, at Savannah, a donation of $500 when they stopped there en route to Beloxi.

2,000 Crowd Rockland Palace to Witness Abyssinian Baptist's Comedy
Youths and Maidens Furnish Menu of Laughter to Climax Church's Celebration of 120th Anniversary of Founding
Abyssinian Baptist Church deserted the drab sameness of entertainment ordinarily offered by religious bodies and did something radical Thursday evening. A cast of fifty climaxed the church's celebration of its 120th anniversary by presenting the musical comedy, "The Rustic Romeo," before an audience of 2,000 that packed Rockland Palace. Eighth avenue and 155th street, and frequently laughed its approval of the production.
Without even the formality of a speech, the curtains opened at the advertised hour and revealed two groups of fetching girls who sang and swayed much in the manner of the stage.

The drawn curtains also presented twelve chorus men, youths attired in the proverbial straw hats, blue coats and light trousers. They, of course, clasped their hands in the approved style and attempted souful gazes while they sang of love and the stars.
"The Rustic Romeo" proved to be a typical song and prance of the wiles and the downfall of one John Jabe Doolittle, Esq., heart smasher of Chowderville. Into the action was injected one lively little flapper from New York and her mother, twice married and looking for a third spouse.
Mr. Doolittle goes about paying court to Evalny Tupper after he has told two other generations the same sweet things. She pays him scant attention and loves Hink Spinny, rustic peddler. Azarin Figg, storekeeper and postmaster, attempts to sell his store to Spinny.
Meanwhile the "Rustic Romeo" has been enamoured by correspondence with one lady who signs her name Flosse. They agree to marry and the date is set. He is given a shock when Flosse proves to be the middle-aged widow, unsuited to this amorous old lad. In the meantime Figg, an inveterate bachelor, thinks himself robbed and accuses everybody.

Two Chinese Fight In Laundry Window
More dramatic than real life was the real life enactment of a desperate battle of two Chinese, Mark Get, 50, and Henry Penn, 24, partners in the laundry business, which took place in the window of their laundry at 3 West 1236th street in full view of a street crowd early Monday morning. Each was trying to kill the other with a hatchet and their motive remains a mystery.
Get is in Harlem Hospital in a very serious condition and Penn, who also suffered wounds in combat, is under arrest on a charge of felonious assault. Both of the men slept in their laundry.
Get told the police that he was awakened shortly before 7 o'clock by Ponn who was standing over him and who threw a sheet over his head and struck him with a hatchet. He said he struggled to his feet and fought with Ponn until the two of them reached the window, where they were seen. A crowd gathered and one of the excited spectators ran to 125th street and Fifth avenue and summoned Patrolman Hurley of the West 123d street station.

Be Ye Thankful
BACK in the days of the Pilgrims, Thanksgiving Day took on a reverent aspect. The early comers to this country were indeed mindful of their deliverance from the wild Indians, of their initial success as tillers of the soil and as builders of homes in a strange land. In a sense these people were happy because they were receiving some of the freedom for which they had bucked the rough seas.
Today, Thanksgiving to the churchgoer is just another day of worship; to the working class, a holiday; to the socially inclined, a chance to see some exciting football or basketball game; to all, turkey day!
Though we are rightfully dubbed one of the oppressed races, we do have the following specific things for which to be thankful:

Though we are rightfully dubbed one of the oppressed races, we do have the following specific things for which to be thankful:
1. The "Solid South" is no more.
2. We are to have a Negro representative in Congress.
3. New York is praising Lionel Licorish as a hero, although light-hued persons are finding time to say unkind things about the Negro crew of the sunken Vestris.
In the event that you are desirous of having an ideal Thanksgiving, go out now and find some person in need. Be sure to take along with you a basket of substantial groceries or even a home-cooked dinner for the needy one. The sunshine you'll spread through sharing what you have will surely give you something for which to be thankful.

Thanksgiving at Home.
Thanksgiving to most of us spells home. City and country dwellers like, on the last Thursday of November, feel the pull or family ties. We are indeed fortunate if we can return to the old roof or gather under our own. Thanksgiving as we know it to be happens in home. May this holiday find all at our family tables, sharing our Thanksgiving dinner in a spirit of thankfulness with someone who happens to be far away from our home table. If you are to be aisser for this holiday feast, do not tempted by novelties, for we are not meant to concuptions hallowed by memory. The is meaning in the old-fashioned meal of the Thanksgiving dinner.
Your Turkey.
Tees will be strutting and gobbling as lustily as ever this year, biding for their usual place on the Thanksgiving menu. Don't forget to order mars early if you want to get on of the choicest of the flock. And be sure that you know just what you want. If your family gatherings to be one of six or eight guests order a turkey, preferably a beef weighing eight or ten pounds. This will allow you to serve at the Thanksgiving feast, with plenty left over to be served

If your family is to include ten or more, you will, of course, need more turkey. In this case, I would suggest that you select two small birds of eight or ten pounds each. The meat on the smaller turkeys is apt to be larger than that on the larger birds of twelve or fifteen pounds in weight. And, even though you have the butcher's assurance that he is selling you young turkeys, don't be afraid to do a little detective work yourself. Pinch the skin deviled or creamed at another meal. Cut the wing or on the breast of the bird. When the breaks easily, the bird is young and fresh. Turn the wing backward; if the joint yields readily, the bird is tender. Pin feathers are very annoying to remove, yet they are a sure sign of a young turkey, while a small oil hair is found on the older birds. Cut the bird's old turkey when it shows under the skin on the back and legs is frequently purplish.
Turkey Stuffing.
Don't make the mistake of leaving the stuffing out of the bird until Thanksgiving morning. There are so many small tasks that eat up the precious delicacy on that table. Let the bibchief deliver the bird's drawn and cleaned, bright and early.

Thanksgiving dinner is, of course, the festive*occasion* of the week. Yet in many homes, there are sons, daughters and guests alike who tarry over*the* week-end. For them the hostess strives to make each meal of pleasant memories. Ideals in diet demand that this season should not be one of over-Indulgence in eating. Yet this does not mean that each meal cannot, be one of delight to all those who share in its bounty.

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN
Feed Him
A WORRIED wife, writes that her husband doesn't seem to enjoy eating at home. He suggests restaurants for dinner and rarely eats any breakfast. She can't understand what the trouble is as she knows how to cook.
Well, there must be some good reason because all, of the men I know are glad enough to turn their noses in the direction of home when it comes to eating time—even if they never do so otherwise!
I wonder if the atmosphere is pleasant. If there's one thing that kills an appetite it's unpleasant surroundings.
I'm very careful during meals. Explode afterwards. If you simply must. Be clean and neat yourself and see that your home is. Who wants to eat from a messy-looking, soiled table? Have your dishes shiny and your table cloth spotless. Put a flower in the sink. Put a dish in the table. Little things these are, but they have great value.
Have enough to eat and have it look tempting as well as taste good. Stick a little parsley or mint here and there for effect. Read magazines and newspapers for new recipes. Learn about home decorat-
Remember that very few men have mincing appetites. Whereas one little potato may be more than

Looking Your Best BY FANNETTE
Looking Your Best BY FANNETTE
Are You Slipshod?
Give yourself time for everything. Be on time at your place of business—even be ahead of time. Not only does it give your boss, a good impression of you, but it also starts you out on the day's work in a calm, self-assured manner.
Arise early enough, to have your morning shower, get dressed and eat breakfast as though you had nothing else to do. Do not forget that even though the subways are jammed, people still watch you critically and the best way not to feel self-conscious is to know that you are looking your best.
Honestly now, don't you enjoy looking now, who is immaculate? By allowing yourself a little more than enough time, you too can look immaculate.
You young men who like to see your sweethearts looking their best, do you expect them to greet you with open arms, when you breeze in like a hurricane that's trying to look calm, late about an hour or so, as usual? It was Lord Nelson, I believe, who said that he owed his success to the fact that he was always fifteen minutes before time. To gain polis, distinction and self-assurance, just allow yourself a little time to make sure that you are looking your best.

DULL HEADACHE BACKACHE and Pains In Sides
"For fifteen years I have been using Black-Draught, when needed, for biliousness and constipation," says Mr. J. O. Woolard; of Oriental, N. C., "and I have always found it to be reliable and effective. It certainly comes up to all the good things that are said for it, and I am glad to recommend it.
"I have found that Theford's BLACK-DRAUGH
purges the system of the poisons which accumulate when the organs do not act properly, and I would not be without it.
"I always give Black-Draught to the children of colds (when a laxative is needed). It is fine for that.
"My trouble is chiefly consipation which is always accompanied by dull headache, backache, and pains in my sides. I think Black-Draught is the quickest and best relief for this."

HOLMAN TO PLAY THANKSGIVING
World Famous Star Going Against Renaissance in Holiday Game
BECKMAN'S BOYS BESTED
Colored Champions in Fine Mettle for Clash With Hakoah Five
(By Francis.)
The famous Johnny Beckman, surrounded by a bunch of stars almost his equal, met the Renaissance Five, world's colored champions, last Sunday night at the Renaissance Casino and went the same way other teams have travelled who tinkled the Harlem quintet this season on their home court. The score at the end read Renaissance, 46; Beckmann's All Stars, 25.
It was rumored before the game that the champs were nursing a large sick list, and when they came on the court it seemed a fact, beaten by the finger was in uniform and in the lineup, while "fat" Jenkins, bundled up in sweaters, was also in uniform, but not in the lineup. Added to this, the imposing roster of Beckham, the hearts of the Renastasce fans and indicated the possible first home defeat of the champions. But when the game started it was a most efficient bunch of cripples that showed a blinding offensive, the kind that is characteristic of real champions.
They seemed to forget all about their alliments, and turned in as good an exhibition in passing guarding and shooting as the most exacting fan would like to see. The man contributing his bit to a 'brilliant first half offensive that could not be stopped.' On the defense the Rens were just as deadly, for in the first ten minutes of the game all the visitors could get was two fowls made by Beckman, who towards the end of the game shot a second of the Stars contributed three hats, all long shots.
Mayers, with his injured finger encased in a rubber tip and later handed, turned in a perfect game, and one that he tried, and Saitch with + field goals and 1 foul, was close behind him when the half ended, 30 to 11, in the champions' In the second half Sanders blew himself to a quartet of field baskets, and retired in favor of Hill. Monroe replaced Mayers. Kollet, with Stars, after many tries at long heaves, finally got two apele, one in particular from Kellett, fully three-quarterers the length of the box, but It was the only way for them to score, as the Rens' defense was airtight and would allow of no other course. It was a fast and snappy workout for the big game on Thanksgiving night at the Renaissance Casino, when Nat Holman and his Hakao River, with Davey Banks, Kerr, Goldberg, and his stars, will meet the Renaissance.
Next Sunday night the Passatic Pioneers will come over from the State made famous by the mosquito to try their luck in stopping the champs. While the Scholastics and the Dolewins will entertain in the preliminary. The New York Defender Girls Wested the St. Lucy Girls of Brookdale 14 to 3. in the preliminary game. H'unday night. A hard, and offless with male results, the prelims, handled the girls' game, and turned in a nice piece of work considering the tough assignment.
The score:

Washington, the other to C. L. A. A. and oue to that wonder team of Va. State. Many who looked on at the game between Union and A. & T. rate the Panthers as the most impressive showing against the champions.

KICKING DUEL ON MORGAN FIELD
Howard and Baltimoreans in One of Season's Best Games
One of the best football games of the season was played between Howard, University and Morgan College on Morgan's athletic field Saturday. The game was hard and the teams had opportunity to score and both held at the crucial moments. Roughness on the part of Howard cost them 80 yards and possibly the game. The game was practically a kicking duel, and Lawless of Morgan consistently outkicked his rival. Morgan gained over a 100 yards all told on the exchanges. Both teams good defenses and both lines held well against running plays.
The high spots of the game came in the first and fourth quarters. In the first quarter Howard had first line but the Morgan lion proved to be a stonewall and four plays gained less than six yards. In the final quarter Morgan made first down on Howard's fifteen yard line through interference with pass. Then Morgan made first down on Howard's five-yard line by three beautiful slides off tackle by Frazier. Frazier carried the ball to the two-yard strip, but here Morgan was penalized twenty-five yards for clipping and arrest on the Howard goal stopper. Both lines functioned beautifully and each team registered only four first downs. Of these, two by each team were made by the overhead route. These was Howard's outstanding star, while Thomas, Gundy and Chase, playing their last game for Morgan, shared honors with Bell and Frazier.

Track in Astonishing Performance After Ten-Day Lay-Off
Phil Edwards, crack distance runner, and Nat Lerner, junior the mile champion, led the New York University - cross-country team to the metropolitan intercollegiate championship. Park last Tuesday tying for the place. The Violet scored a total of 25 points. Columbia, last year, won Manhattan and Southampton were tied and fourth with 71 and 73 respectively. The distance was six miles. Edwards and Lerner locked up the lead and posted a safety ahead of Joe Hagen, the defending champion and Columbia captain. The winning time, 10:52, was the fifth time this season that the team finished inside for first place.
Edwards was not even able to complete the six-mile course at Schenectady in the tie for forth or fifth place, and yet, with stenday lay-off from competition he jumped right into the limeline by the Middle States intercollegiate and winnings Tuesday.
About 40 runners started, and after the first time around the field, they ran the run, the athletes were still bunched. A few stragglers stopped out at this point. When they ran the run, the athletes were Lerner and Roth took the垫 and were closely followed by Kiewers, Joyce of Columbia, and Philips of Chicago, through the hills, each resisting his strength for the jog across fats.
At the three-mile post Hein gave his first indication of weakness and dropped back to about the place. Roth and Lerner took the lead, but Joyce jumped them just above the fourth mile, when he dashed out in front for a short-lived leadership.
Roth and Lerner were leading again when the pack passed the big crowd at the starting post. When they went under the trule again Roth and Joyce had the lead and Joyce was giving the N.F.U. leader plenty of trouble.
This pair dropped bacat the top of the hill, however, and the best part of the race followed immediately afterwards. It was here that Hagen began sprintin, recklessly; Edwards followed him closely, however, and soon forced him to settle into a steadier pace.
When about 1,000 yards from home, the leaders again started a sprint and Lerner and Edwards took the lead together and alone for the first time during the entire journey. Hagen, tired, dropped back steadily.
It was Hagen's first defeat this season. He has scored four victories.

Great Bond Between Jimmy Moore and George Courtney
One of the queer quirks of the fight game has come to light here. It encircles the friendship of George Courtney, leading contender for the middleweight honors, and Jimmy Moore, colore contender for the same. Courtney needed a training partner. Seeing Moore at work in a local gymnasium, Courtney asked the colored fighter to work with him. Moore consented and, as a result, Moore is now under the management of the fighter who also has Courtney and plotted Harry Wilts to fame and fortune.
Not only is there a friendship between the Oklahoma cowpuncher Jimmy McCoy, but he is more; for every time Courtney is matched to fight, he sees to it that Jimmy is on the same card. This is not a deterrent, but it pushes puns on a great exhibition. Considering that Courtney has fought and defeated Jack McVey, long regarded as the lead character in the weight class for the championship, the bringing of Moore to the force is regarded as a very favorable step for the latter. It not only gives him pumps, but there he will face to advantage. Moore came to New York about two years ago and has been under several managers, none of whom seemed to care much about him any good boots. Rather than give up and go abroad, as some of our best fighters have done, Moore stuck it out with a result. Humber moths on owl-iding mothmoth sports palace here, called Jimmy in to act as sales manager in Harlem, giving him "carte blanche" to do whatever he saw fit to promote his sports figures regularly and is fast commending the respect of all in his class.

CHEYNEY BEATEN LAST SATURDAY
Bordentown University "Ironsides" Administer Sound Beating
Cheyney felt the sting of defeat on its home field Saturday afternoon when the "Ironsides" of the Bordentown M. T. and I. School, Bordentown, N. J., climaxed their invasion with six touchdowns. Within the first two minutes of play, the Bordentown nine touchdown or Bordentown and he repeated this performance within the next five minutes by adding another touchdown; Dorsey following Simpson's lead made the next touchdown—all in the first quarter, which totalled 18. Coach Watson's "Ironsides" were cohesively stopped in their onward march for the entire second quarter by Coach Preston's Blue and White. Cheynecites seemed to have found themselves and apparently struck their football stride, and this proved to be a scoreless period. In the third quarter H. Waples and Kellam made one touchdown their second, with Waples climaxed their invasion by adding the sixth touchdown for the Bordentown "Ironsides."
Bad passing and fumbles proved very costly to Cheyuey, while the punting and passing of Wilson, who was assisted by Harris, Rowland, Jordan, Davis, Brown, Edsell and Blalock, the feature of the Cheyenne side of the contest.

MAY NO MATCH FOR CHOCOLATE
MAY NO MATCH FOR CHOCOLATE
Cuban Batters Southerner and Had Him on the Floor
Pinky May of Savannah, who claims the bantam championship of the South, was knocked out last Saturday night by Kid Chocolate in the feature bout at the Olympia A. C. in Harlem. Battered to the floor five times in the fifth round, May was unable to respond when the bell rang for the sixth, and the bout was awaived to the Cuban champion. In the final, the doors, and the fans saw a real fight as long as it lasted between Chocolate and May. The Southerner, not realizing what he was against, waded in, only to be slashed to the door for a short count in the first. He was right on his feet and traded with the Kid. In the second May was down twice for, short counts to the jaw, to the jaw, in thined his box from Dixie staged to fight Chocolate in the portside, and did better, as he thundered.
After a heritie fourth, Chocolate solved his new style and sent him to the floor five times, each after a right to the jaw. When the bell rang May was barely able to find his humane and Referee Patty's humane stopped the bout to save the white boy from further punishment.
Harry Smith, crack middleweight of Harlem, continued his unbroken string of victories by defeating Georgia Descanner of Jersey City in the second and semifinal. Seldom outboxed by rioters, Seldom who looked like a battleship being buffeted by a gunboat. Teddy Seidman gained the decision over Paulie Porter in their six-round bout. Maxie Leiner scored a technical win over Tony Esposito in the third round. Seidman outboxed George Salmon in the setto, and Lem Sarnes landed out Silent Gibbons in one round.

KELLY GETS NOD OVER WRIGHT
Fans Hoot Decision Over Colored Cuban at 106th
Spider Kelly, welterweight champion of the Missouri National Guard, fought his way to a return match with Joey LaGray when he won, the decision-over Howard Wright of Cuba in the final ten-round bout at the Kentucky in Brooklyn last Friday night. Kelly made a big hit with the fans in his metropolitan debut against LaGray, who has won his last 60 bouts in the armories, impressing as an aggressive, rugged gamer, but he had all he could do to sike out a victory over the uppercutting Wright. Wright started with a rush driving Kelly to the ropes in the opening session with a harrage of rights and lefts to face and body. In the second round, however, a few well-timed rights to the stomach slowed Wright down. Wright refused to take a backward step at any stage of the going. There were not a few dissenting voices when the decision announced. Kelly weighed 144 pounds, a half-pound less than Wright.
Johnny-Horan of the home outfit pasted the tar out of Freddie Williams, colored bantamweight from the 1980s, raised six-round bout. Williams, the rubber hall of the armories, always takes a beating but, at the end of the bout, fans their money's worth. Williams weighed 118 pounds. Horan, 116.
MOORE WINS IN GREAT STYLE
Crack Colored Runner Adds Senior Met Championship to His List
Gus Moore, former Boys' High and St. Bonaventure's College star, added the senior metropolitan cross-country crown to his national champion. Moore also covered the six-mile Van Cortlandt Park course in the fast time of 30:28. Verne Booth, former intercollegiate champion, placed second, and Silverman of the team, and Harriers, Moore's teammate, was third.
Mel Sheppard's Millrose A. A. first team romped off with team honors in even more decisive fashion than last week. Sunday Millrose finished with 28 points, whereas last Sunday it had 40 points in winning the national team crown. The Finnish-American A. C., once a power in cross-country circles, but weakened by the loss of Rohde, had 28 points. The Brooklyn Harriers had the first and third men, but slipped badly in the placing of the other three to tally 70 points. The Millrose second team was fourth, with 80 points, while the St. Joseph's, metro, brought up the rear with 88 points.
From the start it was a duel between Moore and Silverman, with booth in the offing, ready to step up should the leaders falter. It was not the second time he had hit the hills that it became evident Moore would win. Until then Moore and Silverman had been running neck and neck but, in the long pull up the steep hill, Moore drew ahead, increased his advantage on night decline at the top and gallop away on the jaunt down the hillside.
He had 50 yards on Silverman then and Booth was struggling along 40 yards back of Silverman. Moore maintained his steady pace across the meadows, but Silverman grew lee-weary and Booth was struggling. Booth held back his final sprint until 100 yards from the tape, when he breezed by Silverman, the junior champion awakening to his danger too late.
Groce Conservatory Pupils in Recital
The eleighteenth pupils' recital of the Groce Conservatory of Music, of which Prof. Elsworth R. Groce is director, was held at the Central Y. M. C. A. auditorium on Friday evening. It was largely attended by music lovers and the young people displayed talent that gave signs of musicality. The main musical numbers were the main features of the program.
Among the punisls appearing were: Lena Monaco, Grace Deas, Dorothy Pyle, Philomena Lucia, Clarence Dinsley, Marle Saraco, Martha Fowkes, Elise Smith, Gladys Carter, Vivian Nordant, Martha Estelle Greene, Kirkland, Maudena Peeler, Frieda Brodie, Edrea Grant, Ruth Kirkland, Vivian Deas, Helen Deas, Gwendolyn Nurse, Esther Simpson and Archangel La Manna; Arthur Dinsley, Licyl Greenidge, Clarence Disney, William Bacchus, Kate Monaco, Charles Knuth Seymour, Insect Mayers, Isider Gustin, Louis Lucia and others.
Mrs. Minnie Johnson sang a solo and E. Sobers sang a harpitone solo. They were very pleasing numbers. The orchestra of the school under the direction of Prof. Grace played several excellent numbers.

BORDENTOWN TOURNAMENT
Smith and Livingstone Ready for Clash Thursday
SALISBURY, N. C., Nov. 22. Both Smith University and Livingstone College moved a notch closer to football supremacy in the Old North State last Saturday when Smith met and defeated Paline College 38-17, and Livingstone journeyed to Raleigh and trounced Shaw to the tune of 14-2. Both teams are in the best of condition and a lively team. Livingstone fans of this section on turkey day when the two teams clash.
New Jersey to Be Divided Into Four Zones of Play
BORDENTOWN, N. J., Nov. 26.—Plans for the second annual amateur basketball tournament for colored teams of New Jersey, which is conducted by the Bordentown Manual Training School, were announced last week by L. B. Granger, extension worker for the school. Last year's tournament included fourteen of the leading senior and junior quintets of the state, but interest already shown this year indicated a big increase in the entry list.
This is the first time in several years the football supremacy in the country has depended on the outcome of the Thanksgiving classic. Both Livingstone and Smith have had representative teams in the last few years, but have not been able to be the stump of championship aggregations.
The fight on the 29th will resolve itself into a battle of lines, as the two backfields are about equally matched. Berry, the dash player of the Bear's squad, will match wits against "Biff" Martin, veteran Smith quarrebate, and Rundall, Butler, and Buford have as their counterparts on the Smith team. Both teams, The linemen and both teams average the same in weight and playing ability. Old football heads have predicted that the game will be won by whichever team gets the win. The little college town of Salisbury will witness a hard fought, thrilling contest on turkey day.
To avoid taxing the school's gymnasium facilities, it is planned to divide the state into four districts, or zones, the Atlantic City, the Camden, the Trenton, and the Newark district. Early rounds will be played off in these districts to determine district champions. Then Atlantic City and Camden, and Newark and Trenton will play off to decide a south Jersey and north Jersey champion in both the junior and senior classes. Finally, the sectional champions will play at Bordentown for the state title. The Montclair Y. M. C. A., colored branch, will accommodate games in the Newark district, the Bordentown in the Trenton district, the Arctic avenue Y. M. C. the Atlantic City district, and probably the Whittier School in the Camden district.
CAPITOL TIGERS WIN FROM TRENTON A. C
ASBURY PARK. N. J.—The Capitol Tigers Jr. defeated the rex to 13 on Roseland Hall Court Friday eight.
Pirates Defeat East Siders
Play will begin the first week in February, and the finals will be played at Bordentown on Friday. March 8. Mr. Granger, as organizer of the tournament, heads a statewide committee, which includes James N. Williams, physical director of the Wolverine Y. M. C. A., and L. Lockett, who holds a similar position in Atlantic City; Hilmer Jensen of Trenton's Community "Y"; Albert Flournoy of the Camden "Y"; J. Richard Lee of Newark; Frederick Forman of Burlington, and others.
The Mother Zion Pirates defeated the East Side Elks in a one-sided game last week by the score of 40 to 12. Webb and Symonds starred for the Pirates, scoring 18 and 9 points, respectively.
The Pirates also added the Salem Crescent Juniors' scalp to their collection, nounding them to the tune of 18 to 17.
The team has been greatly strengthened with the addition of two players—Nichols and Johnson.

A Fine Habit
READING advertisements is a fine habit. Cultivate it. You buy advertised goods and service, don't you? Of course you do; everybody does.
Just run over in your mind the various articles you purchased last week, or, better still, last month.
Take the food-stuffs, for instance — your breakfast fruits, cereals and bacon are all advertised.
The shoes you are wearing or the dress or suit you have on are probably well-known advertised makes.
The rugs and linoleum on the floor in your home, the kitchen aluminum ware, gas ranges, hot water heaters, dish and clothes washers, cooking utensils of all kinds — practically everything you use is advertised.
A manufacturer cannot afford to advertise shoddy or unworthy merchandise. He is jealous of his good name. A good name is a big asset to him in his trade. Advertising, therefore, is a form of insurance. It gives you a feeling of perfect confidence and safety when you ask for an advertised brand, because you are assured that you will get the quality and service you expect. The manufacturer's name is usually a guarantee.
Cultivate the habit of reading advertisements. The more you read advertising the better will you be able to judge values.

Negro author.
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. One might be mixing again with the crowds in the Harlem street that cold Sunday when FLORENCE MILLS was buried. Read it and live through an illusion of reality." $2.50

European Notes
Greeneen & Drayton are a tremendous success at the Hippodrome, Manchester.
The Three Eddies opened in the provinces after a long run in and around London on the Stoll and G. T. C. tours.
Birmingham's two largest theatres will headline Negro artists next week. At the Moss Embryo will be with Jimmy Nitt, Eddie Hunter and Williams & Taylor, while at the Hippodrome the Four Harmony Kings will hold the fort.
Scott & Wainley are at the Alhambra, Bradford, with their own revue, "The Bogus."
Kent & Bernice with Barreto open a tour of the Bernstein cinema theatres next week.
Russell and Vilhan are at the Stoll cinema house in London this week.
I hope my friend Clarence Tisdale will be the first to feature the beautiful new English number, "My Inspiration Is You," composed by Lawrence Wright, popular English musician. I am sure the older hear him do this one they will start weeping all over again. I also highly recommend this one to my friends, Broadway Jones and Gus Haston. Haston, knowing Mr. Wright (who is en route to America), no doubt will be interested in this number.
Walter Richardson, the popular singer, er of "Roll Away, Clouds," (and what a number), has had a flair for the opera, but Clayton & Warner have turned a deaf ear to such, with the results Walter still has barrels of time on hand before and after doing his bit in "Virginia" at the Palace Theatre.
Will Garland, the revue producer, is planning a trip to America in early summer to get new ideas for his new revue next season.
It is rumored again that Moss and Fyre will open here in December. If so, as I said before, they will be a tremendous success.
"Deep Harlem," Sissle, Etc.
I have been reading with much interest about Earl Dancer's production "Deep Harlem" and, judging from the critics, Dancer, with the assistance of Salem Tuttle, has been a great show that I am sure everyone is looking forward to. It is like bringing the Negro production idea back where it was only a few seasons ago. I certainly agree with Theodorus Lewis in his contention that the best performer in the time may be behind the time, lacking in very important things, intelligence, aggressiveness, copy and sincerity. I believe if this incense is really managed right in language "Deep Harlem" will do much more proving its value, acting, contextualizing along educational lines where Negroes are concerned will take its place with other productions of today and will be accepted in a big way by the general public. The Negro artists are still in the lead, proving their ideas, actions, mannerisms, are used in every musical entertainment the world over. If our Negro managers and producers would simply make up their minds to do things in the proper way, by using their brains and not by other such efforts, they would remain in the limelight a mighty long time.
Earl Dancer deserves credit for attempting to give us a real production. On the other hand, it is said that his methods in many ways or more have given him the saying goes, "Everybody can't be wrong," but since Mr. Dancer has started out so well again there are many who would like to see him play public that, regardless of what has been said about him, he and all concerned are going to stick together and make "Deep Harlem" the biggest sensation in recent years, Ms. Jordan and all the rest every success possible. I feel that the time is ripe for the Negro to step out and show from the stage all sides in his life, from the lowest to the very highest, he has attained up to the press.
An officer of a London theatrical partnership were a short time ago why the famous Williams & Walter had years ago. He told him to ask Silisle and besieged to be in London advertised as a prince in an artist he has had lots of experience in managing productions, etc. He said he knew Silisle he had one or two heads to produce in when he first came to London the ideas altogether, but later dropped that, but, I happen to know the greatest ghost of our producers the intelligence (while Silisle possesses and sincerity), he lacks the courage
From the standpoint of popularity, there has been an American Negro quite some acting ideas in England in quite a different way. The XYX advantage, being always wrongly backed of courage and sincerity as well as progressiveness more than ever, has been the result of Harold Stallion, says, I consider Sisleo one of the smartest showmen of late years, yet all of his efforts seem to fall along with being really well things. Being really 'Shuffle Along,' he happened to be in that powerful combination which gave us our greatest Negro production of modern comedy, the proper lines by all concerned broke that mighty combination up. With his partner, Blake, they did a wonderful comeback, of course, the full product of the 'Chocolate Dandies' to crumble in a very disastrous way. Then the very unfortunate thing of he and his well-known partner splitting did not help either of them in
But again luck, if I may term it such, came his way when he came to Europe and with a very clever plant, Harry Revel, he opened one of the biggest breast cancer songs, "Nebrauna," of the year and they started out in a great way, reaching almost the top in months. Wrong advice in minority again caused the Revel to split, but results that his (in the very beginning) ideas of starting out to do big things in a big way have somewhat fallen by the wayside. Yet there are outliers of our so-called producers who have thinned just as Sissle is doing, and the results are our Negro (worth while) productions ideas have suffered greatly.

At Harlem Theatres
By OBSERVER
Drake-Walker Theatre
The theatrical people of Harlem are more than pleased with the show that Drake offers this week at Drake and Walker's Theatre. "Cotton Time" is the title of this musical comedy. It is the kind of entertainment that would appeal to the most fastidious, with a touch of humor. The body is being furnished by Henry Drake, George Williams and String Beans Price. This trio is exceptionally clever. By special popular demand Minguer Phil Herg is holding over for the second week Marcellina, the mind of the jazz band, he heart and tells all. The jazz band is a hit, as usual.
In the "Tip Up Revive" being offered at the Lincoln Theatre this week Dewey Weiglams has succeeded in putting over one of the peppest things of its kind presented at this house in some time. Among other favorites appearing with the group are performers as Ernest Whitman, Mattie Hite, Jackie Mabley and a number of others.
Next week George Stamper will Present his "Fads and Fancies" and is doled to clogging its its own wagon best of its kind here. Stamper is as proficient as any other revue producer playing the Harlem houses and only needs the courage to do it when "The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come" is thrown on the screen at the Lincoln for the latter half of the week, patrons of the will have to see Richard Barthelemy in one of the best roles in which he has ever appeared. The picture will open on Thursday. Popular Molly Day is supporting the playfulness in this splendid picture, which revives with telling effect scenes from Civil War days. Alfred Santell directed the picture with full appreciation of its quality and emotional aspects.
Going back to this week's offering
The public is anxious and always willing to accept a real opportunity for production. I hope Mr. Dancer will, with the co-operation of the others, put forth extra effort and give an anxiously awaiting world the most successful Negro production since the wonderful "Fruit Along." Perhaps I am evolving the sentiment of thousands of people, both white and black, who are really interested in the Negro from an earlier time. I hope he will always have something worth while to offer, especially from the stage.

AT THE LINCOLN
at the Lincoln, one cannot help but notice that Dewey Weilglass has gotten together a chorus, which is one of the snappiest seen anywhere around these diggings in ages, these cool girls in ages, and they are putting over their work with a vim lacking in many dancing aggregations of their kind.
AT THE LAFAYETTE
Departing from the type of "floor show," in which he has specialized, Leonard Harper utilizes several beautiful scenes which enhance the beauty of his show at the Lafayette week and add to its many laughs.
The Six Crackerjacks head the cast of the show. They never appeared to better advantage. Throughout the revue and in their great specialty they stopped the show. The show was directed by "Skeets, Crackshot and Snow," a trio of clever comedians. Zaza and Adela, the Three Variety Steppers, Joyce of Joyce and Rookle, Margaret Burns and Fanny Cotton go through the show, while the musical Caper Cutters perform in the pit and on the stage in a manner which brought storms of applause from the Monday afternoon audience.
"Monkeyshines" takes its place with the greatest of the men, a comedy troupe which have graced the stage of the Lafayette Theatre.
The feature picture for this week at the Lafayette Theatre deserves special mention. It is "Two Lovers," a film by Blanky. This young couple are today the screen's greatest lovers. Colman is a splendid specimen of manhood, reminding one both Douglas and Villina Blanky of the Viennese actress whose dazzling beauty and rare acting ability have brought her to the top of the screen. The most outstanding screen artists, "Two Lovers" is the greatest picture yet made starring this popular pair. It is a dramatic story of intrigue, romance and love, depicted by the city depending on a man's heroism and a girl's devotion and valor.
Next Week's Lafayette Show
Signs displayed in the lobby of the Lafayette Theatre announce a "welcome to the nightclub" Monday. Eddie Reector and Ralph Cooper, two of the most popular boys and greatest dancers, will appear in a program of their own—"Jazz in a Goin'".
While putting the finishing touches to their show, Reector and Cooper starred in Starlight Keith's Palace, Starlight Lovejoy Billy Higgins, Roscoe Simmons, Pablo

Patrons of the Savoy Ballrooms are in for a rare treat over the Thanksgiving holidays. A continual round festival, A continual Thanksgiving festival, Eve, Wednesday night, November 28, continue on Thanksgiving Day with an elaborate program, and conclude with the much-talked about Thanksgiving dinner. Thanksgiving Eve will witness the last day on earth for twenty live turkeys, which will be given free to twenty Savoy patrons. Big ones, tall ones, fat ones, short ones, but all will be plenty for a large group of dance lovers on Thanksgiving Day. Other features will be crowded into the night's fun to make it a celebration worth attending. A dance on Thanksgiving Day, starting at 3 p. m, and continuing until 3 a. m., will be alive with several unique trivolities that all pleasure-seekers will relish.

If some of the previous surprises staged at the popular ballroom in the past are the crieffail which this surprise can be judged.
The grand Thanksgiving night ball bids fair to be Savoy's greatest event. Something like $1,000 will be given to all the most touching attractions. While the price of admission remains the same as ever, the scale upon which this grand ball is being prepared is the same. The guests in the seekers after the joys of life should make it their business to see and hear it all. Gorgeous costumes will be on display, pretty girls will be on the stage and in the house will be set such as the lavish interiors depicted in the big super movies on view in the largest picture houses. Three bands will entertain. Barrels of souvenirs will be given. Almost everything to make the hearts lighter will be on the program.
Yale Dramatic School Host
To James B. Lowe
Yale University School of Drama, presided over by George F. Baker, LITT.D., was host last Thursday and Friday to the well known actor, James B. Lowe. B. Lowe guard Russell, a student at the Yale Theatre School; Mr. Lowe received an invitation to visit the college and he attended a play Thursday night. "The Over Lord," given in the Yale Auditorium, was the first of the workings of the drama school, which has the most complete equipment of any in the world. In the afternoon he appeared before the entire class of playwrights and authors, and gave a reading from "Salome." President Baker and several of the authors were so enthused with Mr. Lowe's work they have promised to write a play for him.
Girl Banjoist Makes Hit on
Spikes' Harmony Queens
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Nov. 26 (By
The Associated Negro Press)—Returning from a six weeks' tour of the
Northwest. Johnnie Spikes' Harmony
Queens are playing here at
Baltimore at the Vermont
avenue, to delightful crowds drawn
by the colored female orchestr,
which seems to have the very soul
of music.
The banjoist, Miss Hazel Wilson,
a famous girl, has become
the hit of the act by dancing, singing
and jazzing up her banjo all at
the same time.
Their tour, including Twin Falls
Ida; San Francisco, Oakland and
San Diego; the West, was
one round of applause for her.
The organization has received an offer
to play at a theatre on Broadway,
in New York. Mr. Spikes is one of
the country's best keyboardists, being the author
of "Some Day, Sweetheart" and
many other former hits.
Just Jimmie Ferguson
IMMIE FERGUSON, American Ne-
gro comedian, defied the London manager of the now popular show "Virginia" and took out all lines in the book, where the words "Niggie, Coon, etc." are used.
Clayton and Waller's all supposed-to-be British show "Virginia" at the Palace Theatre opened with a band and this ordinance to the papers is Walter Richardson. Negro tenor, singing a somewhat jubilee song, "Roll Away Clouds." One of the leading daily papers declares that no show nowadays is quite complete without a Negro comedian and Negro spiritual.
"Virginia" has practically taken a scene from "Porgy" and "Blackbirds" where Negro spiritual are and white spiritual are must have seen shows while in New York recently. Much credit must be given Ferguson. The clever man in the show noticed that it contained many objectionable lines and regardless of the entire last act laid in Virginia, Jimmy Jimmy certainly wasn't necessary for him to call other Negroes "Coon and niggers" to the delight of the producers, so he very cleverly used the word "niggers" with others that fitted in far better.
The producers in the very beginning objected to Jimmy taking out these words, but he went about them, but unlike Jimmy, he deserves much credit for being a diplomat and regardless of his fine salary, he told me he did not come to England to run down his business, but to meet an user about it from the stage. He was told by the director that the word "Nigler" was commonly used in "Showboat" in London and the word "Nigler" was commonly used in his manner nowadays, especially if any scenes are laid in the Southern states of America. However, Jimmy simply and quietly wrote that where the scenes are laid, he would withdraw from the cast and return to America if he had to use such words to get laughts and, besides, he knew what he wanted, where the play "Virginia" is concerned. Therefore, he took the matter into his own hands.
Mr. Ferguson is one of the young Negro comedians of today, and only a few seasons ago he became very popular. In Chocolate he replaces the well-known Johnny Hudgins in that splendid production. He has been appearing lately in the 'Cotton Club Revue in Harlem and was engaged from there for his role in "Virginia." He is a comedian in form. He is clean, clever, and as the run of "Virginia" continues he will indeed become a big favorite in the West End. He has already had offers to appear at the popular Mr. Kat and Plocas comedy show until after the first of the year. Jimmy Ferguson is a very quiet, unassuming, and dandy fellow with a desire to always give the best that is in him. His experience in Europe will add much to his success, as a high-class comedian, and he will give future ahead of him. Without a doubt Mr. Ferguson is certainly a credit to the Negro in the show business.
A Splendid Ring Battle
LOS ANGELES, Cal. Nov. 26 (B) The Associated Negro Press)—A real ring and a real boxing contest, Lincoln thrills, was staged by the players in the stage version of the famous play, "Is Zat So." Chas, Olden played the part of Chick Cowan, a coming lightweight, and the famous Zorilla, was secured to take a place in the cast as his opponent. The pair put on a rattling good bout, supposed to be staged by the markers, played by Miss Laura Bowman and Lawrence Grinley.

Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters at Rockland Palace
The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters will offer their third annual ball at the Rockland Palace, formerly the Manhattan Casino, on the night of December 7 and no stone has been lefturned to make the affair one of the season's best. Among the attractive features of the program will be a hair dressing contest hobbled and long hair, and a whist and bridge tournament. The past affairs of this organization have set a high standard and we do not think that it is far-fetched to predict that the coming one will be as attractive, if not more so, than those of the past.
Cymbals and Drums
*Dear Sir: As a long sufferer of the crude and incompetent ushers of upper Harlem's theatres I rise to protest, because the epidemic has now reached 155th street. I attended the regular evening performance at the Drake and Walker Theatre on Thursday evening, November 15, and the following is what I saw. I secured long seats at the box office and on reaching the balcony floor was met by an individual armed with a flashlight and a half-smoked cigar protruding from one side of his mouth which he failed to remove despite the fact I was accompanied by his friend. I was very uncomfortable seats in a crowded section.

although half the loges were empty, and remained so during the entire performance. Seeing no reason for remaining in my cramped position, I went inside the loge to chat with the seats. In no time the usher, clerg and light, were upon us. We were informed this was reserved and we would have to move. A similar empty loge was left in the room, and the performance was about to start, a stumbed and groned our way there. Before we were seated the same evil smelling clerg and its appurtenances were on the floor. It thought the loge was reserved, was told if we had to make any more moves it would be toward the box office for the return of the价ick of steak, and we would not further trouble except the haunting that our seats may be reserved, which lasted throughout the performance. Came the final curtain; no one was in the room, the loge at all, my friend and I were the cuppants of the one that was thought to be reserved. Is it any wonder that so many of us prior to go to a downtown theatre, offered?
Now, Mr. Editor, you have suggested a publicity agent for this house, and if you would suggest, ushers that have good manners, you should give tude of its patrons and finally the management, because, although there was an added attraction, the house was nowhere near as full as when I visited there during the winter. Very yours.

Franz Schubert (1797-1828)
The most genial and most inspired of all the followers of Beethoven was Franz Schubert. He was born in a suburb of Vienna. His father was a humble school teacher, therefore during Schubert's short lifetime he was obliged to struggle with all sorts of privations. Schubert was understood by his contemporaries or esteemed as he was deserved. In spite of force of circumstance, he could not permit himself to exhaust the fountain of inspiration with which he had been endowed. Schubert was a 'most fruitful composer. His works were the promptings of his nature. His genius was essentially lyrical and as such he was destined to become the creator of the German Heders. Before him Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven and his fellow sons, but importance nor did their work in it correspond to their genius.
Schubert established its song by emancipating the accompaniment from the despotism of the song. The accompaniment to a song is, in the hands of such composers as were Schubert and Schumann, so intimate a part of a whole that to omit it obscures its impersonal comparison is more than merely taking the frame from a portrait or the robe from a graceful figure.
Franz Schubert could divine the poets' intention and give to it a musical setting carrying a more fortable meaning than the mere verse expressed; hence, his songs seemed organic and perfect in all their parts.
Schubert had melody for all sentiments. Poems that seemed least adaptable for music became plant in his hands and by his transformation surprises with new beauties were revealed. Franz Last, in his work of Schubert, introduced him "the most poetic of musicians—a creator of pure beauty which enthails the imagination of the hearer."
Why should we expect the work of any one composer to manifest all possible merits? If we crave dynamic power of emotion or sublimity of thought we may have recourse to Bach and Beethoven but the spontaneous charm of Schubert never charms us. It is not our interest to note that its music fulfills the definition of one of the most poetic composers of our time, Debussy, who claims that "music is chiefly meant to give pleasure." Posterity has appreciated Schubert and recognized him as one of the, greatest and most inspired writers of the lyrics. Every teacher of music now be drawing the attention of his students' songs of Schubert the most lovable of all musicians. It would seem that, out of the 600 examples of his lilies, one should have little difficulty in selecting suitable numbers. Yet, if we may judge by past experience, a few Schubert songs have been sung so often as to become almost hackneyed, while others are equally beautiful and they are scion heard. Already, it must be assigned. Maybe never been transposed adequately.
First, a few love songs: "Dass Sie Hier Genesen" (Would She Were Here? "Die Liebe Hat Geloon" (Oh Love Has Failed Speaken) and "Der Blumenbrief" (The Floral Letter). The three original and beautiful museums in Berlin. In the second, the effect of spontaneity is secured by frequent changes of key, which give the short song an atmosphere of a passionate expression of woe, uttered right from the singer's heart. The first and third are thorough descriptions of the song with a lovely accompaniment offering not the slightest difficulty, yet surprisingly effective. Many of the less known descriptive songs are particularly worthy of attention, are particularly sound, and a little of Brahms and Mendelssohn. "The Rose" (The Rose), a
gem of naive sentiment, is worthy of Hugo Wolf in a lighter mood. Schubert uses a piano figure and an atmosphere similar to his "Hark! Hark! the Lark!"
Above all, the three of supreme musical importance the musician should be "Auf Den Wasser Zu Singen" (On the Water), is one of Schubert's greatest songs and is difficult both to sing and to play: "Im Fruhling" (In the Spring), a typically Schubertian work, the plano part of which in variation form is closely related to the mode of verses: "Ersten Verlust" (The First Loss), one of the simplest, shortest and best of songs, which the composer wrote of S. Schubert portrayed. sadness and bitterness of disillusion with remarkable understanding. The last bar is a stroke of genius.
It is not suggested that these few songs are more than representative of the less popular numbers. There are many others of equal and even greater value. Once a student or teacher has strayed from the beaten track, he will be unable to resist further exertion. He can now garve worthwhile songs among the 800 Schubert wrote than most critics and singers are aware. This present Schubertian Centennial cannot help but stimulate and create a keener interest in those eager to know and love a man and his art.
The excellently trained Hall Johnson Negro Choir will give an entire recital of Negro Spirituals at the John Golden Theatre on Sunday evening, Dec. 9. The Hall Johnson singers have sung a number of the Palladium Orchestra of the Leucoshoe Stadium and have been acclaimed elsewhere for their unique and characteristic spiritual interrelations.
Included on the program will be: "Keo a Inchin" "Inch" "Ezekiel Saw de Wheel" and "You Better Min".
Your Automobile By Robert G. Jones
Questions concerning motor trips and routes will be cheerfully answered when accompanied by a self-addressed and stamped envelope.
THE STORAGE BATTERY.
The storage battery should be very closely observed during the colder months to prevent the electrolyte from freezing. The electrolyte, or the water, as it is commonly referred to, has to maintain a specific gravity of 1.300. This "water" should be kept at a level that will cover the plates in the jars of the battery case.
The charging rate of the generator should be increased, for the early darkness that is associated with winter necessitates a greater use of current for the lights. If the generator is not properly adjusted to winter driving trouble, some starting, weak lights and an inferior component will result. The gravity of the electrolyte will result.
As the jars that contain the distilled water, or electrolyte, are made of glass, the liquid in the expanded frozen state will cause the container to burst. The pressure. This means that the battery has to be replaced. If, however, the electrolyte freezes and its jars do not crack, disconnect the terminals of the battery and put them on so as to gradually melt the ice.
It is then advisable to replace the solution with new distilled water, for freezing and boiling destroy the protein of a solution. Other Winter Driving Points. The following points should be observed and actions governed accordingly: 1. Have the carburator adjusted. 2. The float bowl should be cleaned. 3. The commutator, brushes and oil hearings must be cleaned regularly. 4. Glycerine, or glycerol, does not give off offensive odor, evaporates readily, or destroy the paint. Alcoa does. These are glycerides in a better uniform solution than alcohol. It may cost more in the initial output, but it is cheaper in the long run. Glycerine does not deteriorate with one-tenth the rapidity that alcohol does.
Finding YOUR Job
ACCOUNTING.
If you are the type that delights in solving intricate problems, accounting is a profession in which you find extreme satisfaction. The accounting accountant is to prepare information for the business and order that their decisions might be wisely made. This information may concern the firm's financial history, and present, relation of creditors, and present, relation of etc., and the probable result of unfinished projects upon the business. Accounting requires a high type of active utility, you should have a history developed, you should have an idea as well as a good imagination. Training may develop or increase these facilities but it never will create them. Rules have no importance, you must reason, our own decisions.
What training should you have to be an accountant? You should be well grounded in mathematics, the theory of economics, besides the usual bookkeeping knowledge. You will also be called upon to handle different types of transactions, the movements of exchange. A good knowledge of the law relating to these instruments is essential. Training written expression is important to the fact that an accountant's reports should be written in such clear terms that they may be understood by the non-accountant. There are two different types of accountants, the public accountant and the executive accountant. The public accountant is responsible for the profession. He has the title of "Certified Public Accountant" and is licensed by the State. This license contains contests upon the completion of the examination: (2) The passing of a written examination: (3) Certification of sound moral character: (4) A record of three years of accounting experience.
The executive accountant is often a member of the corporation and files on accounts and information for the guidance of the business. This requires a good knowledge of the particular industry and its delimitation in which he finds himself. The present and future prospects of the profession are good. As a profession it is young and has not yet made a great deal of progress. Income taxes have also increased the pressure and demand for competent accountants, both on the one hand and on the other. The field is open and there is little fear of overcrowding during the present generation. To my mind this is a profession which gives real promise for Negroes with the ability required.

TIME to test a woman's ability to entertain correctly is at the holiday dinner table, for at this time her plans may be the most delightful of successes or the saddest of failures. If she has had no experience in presenting a formal dinner in her home, Thanksgiving is not the time to experiment, for the majority of people conceive pleasurable dining on that day as the proper form of celebrating it. There are many other ways of entertaining or amusing guests or oneself, but somehow eating is the prime factor.
To insure a lively and congenial afternoon, the hostess makes herself responsible for the type of guests who will compose the dinner party. A hostess with genius can hardly supervise the conversation of a tableful, and uncongenial companions may be forced to sit through an hour or two of boredom without hope of rescue. The hostess should, therefore, know her guests and see to it that they are interesting to each other. If the guests are thoroughly well entertained, one may be scarcely conscious of the food, whose amount of good food can quite compensate the average person for a stump hour or two.
party is an open question. In fact, it varies with different groups. In New York formal dinner is often given at 6, if a theatre party is to follow; 7 to 8 o'clock, however, is not mutually if the group is expected to finish the evening at the hostess home.

A Baby For You
Are you denied the blessing of mothers' story of the baby all your own?
Guests for Thanksgiving dinner should receive their invitation at least a week in advance. In the event an invitation is rejected, only a fairly intimate place such as an invitation, being given only by telephone.
Replies should be sent promptly, at least within twenty-four hours after an invitation is received, and should never be conditional.
Ceremonial dinners usually include eight, twelve, fourteen or eighteen guests for the hostess to overestimate the capacity of her dining room. A serious mistake is made by many a hostess who attempts to have a larger party than she has table service available. Odd dishes and silverware may be used to advantage, but the hostess must apperment and can clearly interpose odd dishes and other odd service unobstructively.

Finding New Stations
Complaints are rampant everywhere concerning the new radio allocation by the Federal Radio Commission. The most common one that I think is the stations on their new assignments. Difficulty in tuning, in general, is due to inexperience—it not understanding the new alarms. To tune under the new plan requires the complete logging of the radio receiver. Only WYNC and WOR remain the only solution is to tune in all stations from the top downward and await the signing of call letters. Each should be logged. This will allow the listener to become acquainted with the stations from the top downward, after which he will be able to choose any station desired at random.

Are you denied the blessing of motherhood—the glory of a baby all your own? Do you and your husband yearn for a baby's arms and a baby's smile? Nature does not intend that any woman should be childless. When she is, it is usually due to some weakness or disorder of the organs of reproduction. When these organs are properly toned up, invitated and helped to function properly, the blessings of motherhood may be realized.
Many women are now praling a remarkable new treatment called Gen-Time and expressing their gratitude for what it has done for them. Intended as an aid in revitalizing the organs of reproduction, many report also that it helped to relieve many of the ailments common to women, such as behaving down and periodical pains, etc., and aids them to lead happier and more companiable lives.
To test this new treatment, simply send name to Hamilton Products Company American Bank Ridg., Kansas City, Mo., and when your treatment arrives pay postman $2.00 plus few cents postage. This reliable company agrees to refund the $2.00 if you are not satisfied. You should not hesitate in accepting their generous offer.

By THEARCHER
November 28 begins a business that will bring some unusual spiritual development, unexpected changes in domestic and romantic affairs, much romance with the health, and yet a very splendid financial aspect that will reward those of today who push ahead in spite of all obstacles. Accidents are shown.
The birthplace for November 29 brings worry and loss through women folks, deception from business associates, and yet there comes unexpected financial help in times of financial need. This will feel the best of health. This will be a year in which a personal effort alone brings success.
The birthyear for November 30 holds many good things, the chance for some unusual mental development, a sudden journey that will bring happiness, and worry over financial affairs. The chemists and workers in oils and liquids should be ahead. The health should be guarded.
December 1 promises success in employment, and business. Much spiritual happiness and understanding will come to nearly every one. The experience, especially so if the journey is taken for the sake of business. Loans and mortgages will be well considered, or loss will accrue through them. December 2 brings a birthday party for the student and courtships, mysterious happenings, trouble through slander and quarrels, and loss through legal documents and indirect loans or investments. There will be much secret letter writing. Some unusual news comes concerningly, the digestive system should not be withdrawn in foods or drinks.
Many people of December 3 will find themselves out of employment and fall in business simply because of the envy and treachery of others. The social and romantic side is well aspected, but too much cannot be expected from these new friends. Old plans and ideas will succeed best. The birthyear will need patience and good judgment. The loss of delay to all new plans and ideas, many new friends, the loss of things that are most treasured, and sudden family journeys for the birthyear. Employment and business are better favored, and it will be possible to have this birthyear will truly need patience and the best of judgment.

Eugene Jones in Stirring Address
Eugene Jones in Stirring Address
National Urban League Executive Spoke at Concord Church Sunday
"If the Negro is to be helped in America it is through developing race leaders and there will be changes for the better, but these changes will increase of will power," said Eugene Kincle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, during the course of a sitting address Sunday afternoon during the month of November by this organization. Mr. Jones recently returned from Europe, where he attended the International Conference of the official delegates of the National Conference of Social Work. He gave some interesting accounts of his experiences and told of observations that he had made. He stated that idea since being abroad that "No race prejudice is based on color but on the psychological effect of the recent slavery of the American Negro and that was well attended by a representative group of Brooklynites.
Addresses were also made by Robert J. Elzy, executive secretary of the league, and Mrs. Temple J. Burge.
The meeting was called to order by Dr. Adams, pastor of the church, who also gave the invocation. In a short but eloquent address he invited the audience to V. O. Brown pastor of Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church and a member of the board of directors of the league, who acted as master of ceremonies. Dr. Brown in his talk stressed the point that the churches are the economic problems greater and, while it has been the custom of the churches to aid in solving these problems, it is not entirely the churches that do this now. Other agencies are doing and, among them, the Urban League has urged greater support for this organization. The next was an anthem by the vested choir of the Fleet Street churches in the direction of Prof. D. B. Bridge. This was followed by a short talk by Executive Secretary Robert Elz of the Urban League-Lincoln Settlement. Mr. Elz emphasized the need, such an organization and of some of the work that it is doing.
Mrs. Burge was the next speaker. In her address she told of the trend of life among Negroes. She stated that they were leaving the countryside. This brought about new living conditions and new problems and placed a greater burden upon such an organization as the league. She also gave a very interesting history of the league, once what it is doing. The league included a very pleasing anthem by the Fleet Street Church choir.
Order of Tents in Services Last Sunday
The historic Bridge Street A. M. E. Church was filled to capacity with nearly 2,000 members of the Order of Tents and their friends on Sunnyside evening, and the several tents Brooklyn historic their joint annual Thanksgiving services there.

Tylter, who spoke on theopic, "The implications of Tent Life."
After the opening services Mrs. Annie Garrison-Martin, leader of Diarethra Tent, introduced Mrs. Annie ushon, another ten leader, who introduced this sermon. This was followed by singing for the first time in public of the opening ode of the order.
Mrs. Ellie Moseley, the noted soprano, and a member of the order, sang a solo.
Past Grand Senior Matron Mand Men read a very interesting history of order. Various officers were next introduced. Among them were Mrs. Mary Gale, superintendent of the Eastern District, Mrs. Florence Lane, and Mrs. Florence Lane, also superintendent of the Eastern District. Both are past grand senior matrons. Both are past grand senior matron, was the next to be introduced. All of the leaders of the various tents in and visiting tents were introduced.

Sudden Death of Bishop Johnson Shocks Friends
Brooklyn Masonic circles were shocked on Thursday when they learned of the sudden death of the late A. M. E. Church, who was a thirty-third degree Prince Hall Mason. Bishop Johnson, who resided in Philadelphia, is the only other thirty-third degree Mason and the present master of Carthageian Lodge No. 47, F. and A. Masons. In Elks, a prominent official in Elks, Knights of Pythias and other organizations.
The shock is of double force, for on Tuesday evening, Nov. 20, the lodge room of Carthaginian lodges held a lecture on the history of every rank who had come out to hear the bishop give a lecture on "The Northeast Corner." The bishop seemed in the best of health and in keeping with his custom, before the collation was served by members of the Eastern Star. He was taken to his son's home by Dr. N. Peterson Boyd, rector of St. John's Church, who is a member of the lodge and who attended the lecture.
Wednesday morning he left for his home in Philadelphia.
Thursday afternoon he died after
renewing home from a shopping
tript.

Rural Problem Discussed At Urban League Smoker
The rural situation of the Negro in the South and middle West was discussed by Zachary Taylor Hubert, president of the Agricultural and Normal University, Langston, Okla., and Benjamin F. Hubert, executive secretary of the Georgia State Industrial College, Savannah, Ga., at a smoker Friday night at the New York Urban League, 208 West 136th street. Both men are brothers of James H. Hubert, executive secretary of the Negro. The president of the Oklahoma school stated that the rural situation in his State among Negroes is very encouraging, as indicated by the fact that Negroes own and operate 5 per cent more farms than the whites, a condition which is said to exist in no other State. This is in nine counties, where the larger percentage of Negroes live, he said.
Benjamin F. Hibbert gave a short talk on Negro farm life and the work his college is doing toward improving it. The Georgia teacher sees a change for the better in the attitude of the whites toward the Negro in business in the South. The college is making an effort to train Negro farmers for the purpose of having them concentrate upon their opportunities in farming.

Native African Union Hails Visiting Rulers
The Native African Union of America, inc. rose in tribute Saturday to two of its most distinguished members when a reception was tendered King Amah III and Prince Eket at the national headquarters, 200 West 13th street. The African monarchs are here on commercial missions for their countries. His., Highness King Amah is ruler of subjects on the Gold Coast in Nigeria and Sierra Leone. His movements have been clothed in security here and he refuses to divulge his plans or his local quarters. Prince Eket is said to be chieftain of natives in Calabar, Ibbo and Eket. He is 27 years old. The two were greeted formally by Eli Busabe Nyombolo, president of the nation.
Bascom Slemp Says
South Is Now Free
The winning of Virginia's electoral votes by President-elect Hoover is symbolic of a "a new freedom" in the Solid South, according to C. Stimm, Storm, White, Republican National Committeeeman from that State.
"I think that the result in Virginia and other Southern States is evidence of a new birth of freedom in the South." Mr. Slemp declared. "Reduced to simple terms, it means that the South will hereafter be an open forum for political discussion. There is no doubt that the South will be intensely sympathetic with Mr. Loover in his administration. That is success. The Southerners will feel that a part of that administration. Upon the development of the future will depend the political status of that part of the country. Certainly it has shown that it will never accept the leadership of Governor Smith Mr. Raskob or their understudies."
Young Man Held As Fake Officer
A charge of extortion upon which Frank McNamara, 18, a driver's helper, 222 St. Nicholas avenue, was arrested a few days ago was changed to a charge of impersonating an officer when he was arraigned Thursday before Magistrate Flood in Harlem Court. Chalkers Parnell, superintendent of 101 West 130th street, charged that McNamara visited him at 245 West 122d street, where a night himself conducted, and representing himself produced, and representing agent, proceeded to search the place for liquor. He had a deputy sheriff's badge in his possession, police assert. McNamara declined to make any statement and was held in $500 ball for a further hearing.

Illinois Company Has Placed Insurance Within Reach of All
On Nov. 18, 1918, just exactly one week after the declaration of the Armistice, a small group of businessmen in Chicago for the purpose of founding an insurance company to help Negro. Tasse men, messes, Lawrence Shelby, William J. Wright, William J. King, saw the great and important providing their group with an added insurance service, and with this objective in mind organized the Underwriters' Mutual Insurance Company and life insurance business under the Mutual act of the State of Illinois.

Under the capable and far-sighted management of Mr. Wright, who started as treasurer of the company made steady progress. But illness removed the other original founders, so that Mr. Wright, now president and treasurer, is the sole owner of the company. Activities engaged in the business. He is being assisted by J. E. Mitchel, first vice-president and secretary. In 1927 the company was placed on a legal reserve basis under the Illinois act passed that year, and this established it among the top-notch occupies an entire large three-story building on one of Chicago's most famous streets, maintains one of the finest and most modern offices and clerks of the agents and clerks all. Negroes.
The company writes all forms of industrial and ordinary casualty insurance, and industrial and ordinary life insurance up to $10,000, including endowment policies and municipal policies for children. One of the greatest innovations in insurance policies has been the Underwriters' $1 a month life insurance policies. These policies, introduced about five months ago through national marketing in Negro news, have been favorably received everywhere.
The present officers and directors of the Underwriters are: William J. Wright, president and treasurer; J. B. Mitchel, first vice-president and secretary; Lewis E. Johnson, attorney; Dr. A. Wilburforce II, president; S. K. Huard, general superintendent of agents; W. A. White, clam adjuster; George B. Hawley, William R. Ferguson and P. D. Campbell.

WEEK'S ISSUE of The Commonwealth by E. C. Aswell, a Southerner, on the Negro. One-tenth of the article is on the Negro. The other nine-tenths, to justify the South's treatment of the North, the author states his opinion that the only instrument that can solve the race, because, he reasons, it will put the North South wants him.
MENTAL PROCESSES of Southerners, confusion of cause and effect, are familiar to them. For three hundred years they have been Negro lazy, ignorant, vicious, irresponsible and lacking in self-control. In many cases needed. Now they point to the results of the case that the Negro's faults were born in the Negro desires equality and he needs the controlled. The Catholic Church can and his need. it can give him the religious protestant churches have always denied the time teach him that wisdom which was facts of inequality in actual life—always condition of the Negro in America."
IS A SPECIMEN of Mr. Aswell's reason and pretty to Southerners. For some thinks that a Catholic is less of a man. If he reads a little history he will be the world's greatest fighters were and are rebellion in a Protestant country there in multicountries. If Protestantism has not justified with lynching and the other evil hard to see how Catholicism will make it might easily have an opposite effect, quality which Mr. Aswell says the Catholics the Negro might inspire him to demand of equality and give him the nerve to figure inkerism and insurance.
ACIAL DISCRIMINATION has often been the great insurance companies, the报记者 politician Life Insurance Company in its New thing new. It is none the less reprehensible should be resented by all Negroes.
METROPOLITAN company has established work for Negro policy holders only. Not in Newark, but those living in Orange, required to pay their premiums at the cost of an Orange resident, merely because all the way to Newark when there is an Orange sounds more like Georgia than any other or adopted everywhere remains to local or general it should meet with the cost and resistance of all self-respecting who already have paid thousands of dollars may find legal means to end the discovers who are not in the company have effective means of showing their resentment clear of that company. In the past ten Negro insurance companies have come day by day they are demonstrating the confidence and custom. In insurance and Negroes need only to make up their time and whenever possible they will refuse firms or companies that practice discovers.

Southern Reasoning
LAST WEEK'S ISSUE of The Commonweal contained an article by E. C. Aswell, a Southerner, on the Catholic Church and the Negro. One-tenth of the article deals with the Church and the Negro; the other nine-tenths, of course, attempts to justify the South's treatment of the Negro. In conclusion, the author states his opinion that the Catholic Church is the only instrument that can solve the race problem in the South, because, he reasons, it will put the Negro just where the South wants him.
THE MENTAL PROCESSES of Southerners, with their childish confusion of cause and effect, are familiar to all reading people. For three hundred years they have labored to make the Negro lazy, ignorant, vicious, irresponsible, improvident and lacking in self-control. In many cases they have succeeded. Now they point to the results of their work as evidence that the Negro's faults were born in him and not implanted.
"THE NEGRO desires equality and he needs above all things to be controlled. The Catholic Church can reconcile his desire and his need, it can give him the religious equality that the Protestant churches have always denied him, and at the same time teach him that wisdom which will accept the tragic facts of inequality in actual life—always to be the essential condition of the Negro in America."
THAT IS A SPECIMEN of Mr. Aswell's reasoning, and it will sound pretty to Southerners. For some reason or other he thinks that a Catholic is less of a man than a Protestant. If he reads a little history he will learn that many of the world's greatest fighters were and are Catholics. For every rebellion in a Protestant country there have been ten in Catholic countries. If Protestantism has not made the Negro satisfied with lynching and the other evils of the South, it is hard to see how Catholicism will make him any meeker. It might easily have an opposite effect. The religious equality which Mr. Aswell says the Catholic Church would give the Negro might inspire him to demand every other kind of equality and give him the nerve to fight for it.
Crackerism and Insurance
AS RACIAL DISCRIMINATION has often been charged against the great insurance companies, the reported action of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in its Newark office is nothing new. It is none the less reprehensible, however, and should be resented by all Negroes. THE METROPOLITAN company has established an office in Newark for Negro policy holders only. Not only Negroes living in Newark, but those living in Orange, five miles away, are required to pay their premiums at the Newark office. To make an Orange resident, merely because of his color, go all the way to Newark when there is a company office in Orange sounds more like Georgia than a Northern state. WHETHER THE NEW POLICY is to be confined to New Jersey or adopted everywhere remains to be seen. Whether local or general it should meet with the determined resentment and resistance of all self-respecting Negroes. The Negroes who already have paid thousands of dollars into the company may find legal means to end the discrimination.
NEGROES who are not in the company have a simpler and more effective means of showing their resentment. That is, to steer clear of that company. In the past ten years several strong Negro insurance companies have come to the front, and day by day they are demonstrating their right to public confidence and custom. In insurance and every other business Negroes need only to make up their minds that wherever and whenever possible they will refuse to deal with stores, firms or companies that practice discrimination.

THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT has decided in favor of New York State against the Ku Klux Klan. In 1923 this state passed a law requiring all membership corporations to file lists of members and officers with the state secretary. It was known as the Walker law. For an alleged violation of this law George W. Bryant, a Klansman living in Buffalo, was arrested. He took his case to the United States Supreme Court, attacking the Walker law on the ground that it conflicted with the Fourteenth Amendment, and claiming that the Klan had the same rights and privileges as other secret fraternities.
THE COURT DECLARED that discrimination against the Klan was justified by its difference from ordinary secret fraternities; that the Klan took advantage of its secrecy to commit acts inimical to personal rights and public welfare; that at times it was taking into its own hands the punishment of what some of its members conceived to be crimes; and that the police authority of the state is superior to secret orders.
THUS THE EFFORT OF THE KLAN to gain a legal sanction for its crimes has been defeated. There is irony in the fact that the Klan, which is an active enemy of the pursues of the Fourteenth Amendment, appeals to the protection of that amendment. The Ku Klux Klan is a crowd of suckers.

The Two-Dollar Woman Out Again
Aubrey Bowscr Reviews "Harlem-A Forum of Negro Life," and Finds It Bows to King Dirt
"Not all of our younger writers are deep enough in the subsoil of their native materials—too many are pot-plants, seeking a forced growth according to the exotic tastes of a pampered and decadent public. It is the art of the people that needs to be cultivated, not the art of the coteries."
These words of Alain Locke are the most significant to be found in "Harlem," the magazine which made its first appearance this month. "Harlem" contains a number of good things; it reveals a wealth of talent, of power and promise in our younger writers. It is a gallant attempt to create a Negro medium which shall exist for art and not be smothered under a weight of propaganda.
STOCK taking usually follows the upsetting of previously existing condition of things. The recent political upheaval will cause a realignment of political forces in this country. There no longer exists any sharply divisive principle between the two parties.
In this realignment of political parties the issues will no longer be sectional, but economical and national. The Negro will no longer furnish the chief bone of contention. The outcome of the election has confirmed my long-standing contention that there is nowadays no essential difference between the attitude of the two parties, as such, as to the Negro's part and place in the political sphere. Both parties sought his vote with equal avidity in the North, where it was uncontested. With equal cunning or equal cowardice they both dodged the issue in the South against determined local opposition.
The last election divided the Negro vote into two comparable parts between the contesting parties. This division will certainly persist in the future, when the reshaped issues will concern themselves with economic matters, without reference to the Negro question one way or the other. This new allignment will free the Reconstructionist to tasteful charge of being called the Negro party, and its adversary of the stigma of being opposed to human rights. The Negro will be

It is indeed unfortunate that even in the midst of our greatest tragedies racial animosity still holds its sway. A "Southern gentleman" boxer of Louisville, Ky., declared while on a lifeboat that he would perish perish than row alongside a Negro. A "lady" from the same city, who was also a passenger upon the Vestris, was unable to understand why the lives of so many Negroes were saved. The New York World carried the story of a correspondent whose home must surely be in Mississippi, rather than Long Island. Untrite stories about Negroes were published in a native. Had he signed his name "Cracker" instead of "Davies," one could have easily understood the impulses which prompted him to write in that manner.
But truth will out. On the day following the arrival of the first survivors in New York the picture of Lionel Licirch was flashed upon the screen at the Roxy Theatre. He received more spontaneous applause than the President-elect did only a few moments later by little the true story of the disaster has come to light.

GIVES HOSPITAL: O. K.
Mary B. Royall Says Presbyterian Hospital is Noted for Equality.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir,
Permit me to take vigorous exception to the report of racial discrimination at the Presbyterian Hospital, which appeared on the first page of your paper on Nov. 14, having had experience with both the Presbyterian and Roosevelt Hospitals. I feel that your news article is very unfair and that if you had known all the facts it would not have been published.
The article states that a lady was refused a private room at the Presbyterian Hospital because of her color. I do not see how this can be true, for a close relative of mine very recently occupied a private room at the Presbyterian Hospital and was given every courtesy and consideration. Whatever the reason for excluding the lady named in your article, it could not been color.
The Presbyterian Hospital has always been noted for equal treatment of patients regardless of age and by expulsion that, it is living up to its name. I

funct magazine "TJe"—the two-dollar prostitute. The best verse in "Hartem" is that of Alice Dunbairn Nelson, Allison Davis and Mae Cowdery, Allison Davis's picture of the old slave brooding over the stoneless burrowing ground of his people is especially pathetic. The articles are uniformly high-class. Alain Locke's "Art or Progression" has been quoted as the reason to encourage Water White in his political article is
representation only as the last resort to gain political advantage, which it now finds it can secure with less drastic means. The Fifteenth amendment. The Fifteenth amendment is a basic principle of the Constitution, which, as Presidents Taft and Coolidge said, ought to be obeyed. The integrity of its intent and purpose will be recognized, but its practical violation will be winked at, as is now and hence the case for these past forty years.
There have sprung up as result of Mr. Hoover's "illly white" policy two competitive white parties in the South, each assuming the same attitude towards the Negro as to his right to vote and privilege to participate in party management and control. Both will be intolerant and exclusive as concerns his participation as a Democrat, and the two comparison is odious. The Negro will undoubtedly gain the privilege of suffrage by suffrage. Each side will make like bid, for his vote in the passive voice assured that it can be controlled without real or fancied dread of social equality and Negro domination. At first conceded by suffrage, the Negro vote will be ultimately accorded as a right and insisted upon as such. The fourth principle, now courteously abandoned by its sponsors, will gain force and effectiveness by practice and usage. The Negro will thus come into his guaranteed rights by indirection.

NIGHTMARES
Nattie S. Giscome Is Not Very Well Informed on Church Activities.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
What the poor, unlettered blacks of our country need is education. Educate them to keep away from the religious nightmare of orthodoxy with its fiery hell and brimstone. For the purpose of being supported by our poor people, the ministers declare religion to be sacred and that whoever adds to or takes away from it will be burned here and hereafter by God. These men laughter and joy; they utter meaningless words and barren promises above the dead.
I would suggest that your paper start a crusade against the myriads of theological Negro frauds in New York who are sucking the life blood out of our people by their nefarious non-productive doctrine. "Take all the world and give me Jesus," and "promises of eternal bliss in the sweet bye and bye," whilst taking care of their dimes on earth.
I have gone into the various handicapped by the fact that it was dated almost before it appeared. Summed up, his advice to the Negro voter is to advance from the position of couette to that of couette.
"Back Stage Glamour," by Theophilus Lewis, is the most interesting article on the Negro stage that this reviewer has ever read.
From a literary and a Negro viewpoint the best article in "Harlem" is George Schuyler's character sketch of a Negro top sergeant. If there is a prize in America, the best sketch of a by a Negro or anyone else it should be awarded to Schuyler's "Woof."
Yet, for all the foregoing praise, "Harlem" is not a Negro magazine in the true sense, Alain Locke's criticism of our at the beginning in general, quoted applies to the contents of "Harlem." This magazine is addressed not to the great mass of the race—but to a coterie. Its tone is sophisticated, intellectual; it leans too far toward黛尔 Schuyler and the articles of Schuyler and the average healthy-minded Negro will get very little out of it. It either soars over his head or burrows in the mud under his feet; it never touches him. The editor exorciates Dr. DuBois for the way he would find something to say about the better side of Negro life.
But this better side is just what the average Nergo wishes to read about. He is tired of being played up as a deprived creature for white readers to shunt over. He is tired of seeing him as a pimp, a gambler, a deprived child, a trottle of the underworld; of seeing the educated woman described as a two-dollar prostitute.
SPECIAL ARTICLES
pensated for by local gains in the other. The increasing number of Negroes will be sent to city councils and State legislatures. In the next decade we may confidently expect half-dozen Negro Congressmen from the large cities where the race constitutes the majority in Congressional units. One such member has already been elected to several more are bound to the next few years. This will give the race value and representation inside the circle of the Government. Several Negro Congressmen, exercising good sense and sane judgment, can contribute effectively to the political good of the race.
The elimination of the Negro from a controlling say in Southern State organizations puts him effectively out of the game in national politics for many years to come. Northern representatives will speak for limited local political and social best, can have but slight bearing upon the State organizations of which they form a minor part.
Without a constituency with ascertainable control of effective voters, no one may expect any effective sway or say with the powers that be or desire to be. It is only when you have the power and the disposition to change the government that your voice will be heard and heeded.
In the meantime, the race will have to rely chiefly upon the power of persuasion and moral protest against injustice and inequity in rights under the Constitution and under Dull as the conscience of the nation has become to the voice of justice and righteousness. It durs not let such pleas so wholly unheeded

Yet our orthodox men of God are collecting thousands of dollars weekly from our poor, ill-advised and unlettered people.
Mr. Editor, I call upon you to start a campaign. Ask our ministers to join you in the raising of funds (if they love the race), so that we may have in New York City a home for the Negro aged. No matter what they may say or what may come, try to do what is exactly right. Let us have one world at a time. Let us make the change. This is the interest that a decent action draws, and the more decent action you do the larger the income will be. We can help our poor people. Consequently, humanity is the only real religion.

tute. He refuses to swear allegiance to King Dirt.
For this the sophisticates laugh at the average Negro; but he is not the fool they take him for. He will never be convinced that dirt is more artistic than decency. He belives that if a writer has real artistic power there is no need to dip his pen in a sower; that pandering to King Dirt is no sign of advancement. It is taking our younger writers a long time to learn this.
WRITES ON NEGRO
AUTHOR'S DILEMMA
The Dilemma of the Negro Author in America is the subject of an essay in the December American Mercury Magazine by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. He writes that the creative Negro author has arrived in America and is recognized, but that he faces a difficult problem. Whereas the white author has only a white audience to consider, the Negro author has two, or even three audiences to think of the Negro author as a mixed group, each having its own peculiar set of preconceptions and toboos.
Explorer's African Widow Dies
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People learns from H. W. Peet of Berkhamsted, Kent, England, that Mr. Grace McCormick, a distinguished missionary and Congo-explorer, has just died in Jamaica, where she has been living for some years with two wives, Mr. Grenfell and his wife, on the very heart of Africa on the famous little boat, "The Peace."

ONE hears so much about Harlem Hospital that to some it might be well a chamber of horrors. This hospital is to serve the community and we might just as well know all the good and bad of it, if the purpose for which it is intended is to be well administered.
I have selected this service—pneumonia treatment—to write about, not because the hospital is one of the best equipped in the city, and visitors from all over the country come in to observe the methods employed there, but because I want to bring before the public the fact that a new era has come—the life of the hospital and its relationship to the community it serves.
The hospital shares a part of a fund donated by Lucas N. Litanner for purpose of working out the best treatments in pneumonia, particularly along the line of serum administration. Most everyone is familiar with the pos-
little as possible. By a right compartment, food and other things are received by the nurse from the outside. A talking tube with a valve stop is used for communication with the inside, which can be plainly seen through glass windows. There are only two other such chambers in the whole city, one at the Rockefeller Medical Center and the other at the Medical Center. Though this apparatus has only been in operation two weeks, fully half a dozen patients, who seemed bound for the other side, have saliued the storm.
This work is under the direction of Dr. Jessie G. Bullowa and a corps of twenty-five doctors, chemists, pathologists and laboratory technicians. Dr. Bullowa is a tireless worker, who has given her time and money to see the bodies through. He is highly interested in reducing the mortality from this dreaded disease, and hopes in the future to present to the medical world something of worth. Contributions to the Littauer Fund may be made through Dr. Bullowa. He has done a great deal in getting donations, from other sources, but feels that the people of Harlem are the most pneumonia patient who goes to Harlem for treatment is, in my opinion, fortunate.
There is much room for improvement at Harlem Hospital and with the growing spirit of patient care, the superintendent, Dr. R. Rapp, and those at the head of affairs, the future of this institution as a place where the sick will seek care with that confidence and mutual understanding which should exist in the patient and patient will be insured.

I have selected this service—pneumonia treatment—to write about the hospital is one of the best equipped in the city, and visitors from all over the country come in to observe the methods employed there, but because I want to bring before the public the fact that a new era has come—the life of the hospital and its partnership to the community it serves.
The hospital shares a part of a fund donated by Lucius N. Littaner for the purpose of working out the best treatments in pneumonia, particularly along the line of serum administration. Most everyone is familiar with the positive results obtained with the pneumonia scarlet fever and tetanus by the use of specific serum.
By painstaking investigation and elaborate processes of purification by the city laboratory under the direction of Dr. Parks, a new serum is being prepared which, when administered in certain types of pneumonia, cuts the disease short and prevents the long-drawn-out convalescence and complications. The reaction to follow the giving of serum are seldom seen with the refined product.
The latest acquisition of this department is an oxygen chamber costing over $12,000, a gift of Alex and Alexandrine Sinhelmer and C. Wilbur Miller. This addition has been under construction for the past six months and has just been completed. Pneumonia patients who show signs of respiratory disease are raled looking machinery, which also regulates the temperature, humidity and pressure of the oxygen.
in order to conserve the oxygen, the chamber is entered as
Holds Races Differ
In Mental Ability
SCHENECTADY, N. Y., Nov. 26 (ANP).-Theories long advanced by anthropologists, that there is no mental differences due to racial traits, were contradicted here Wednesday by Dr. C. B. Davenport of Carnegie Institute of Washington in a thesis read before the meeting of the National Academy of Sciences, which has just closed a three-day session.
According to his findings, after subjecting members of the white and black races to certain psychological tests, "races differ in innate mental traits as really as they do in their own physical characteristics of the full-blooded Negroes and whites of the same social status, education and occupation are compared, the Negroes show a superiority over the whites in at least certain parts of the field of sense discrimination, notably in musical tests. In ability to retain and reproduce a certain figure in the whites if not subject to the whites, but in tests involving some organization, fore sight, and planning the whites show a superiority."
