While hundreds of members of
the church in which she had worked for sixteen years prepared to honor her in death, the congregation also prayed for the pastor, who is stricken with Influenza, and possibly pneumonia, at St. Luke's Hospital, 113th street and Amsterdam avenue. He was taken there Sunday morning. It was reported Monday evening that this condition was not serious and that he had passed a fair day. However, he will not be able to attend the services or see his helpmate borne to the grave. Considerable comment wasroused two weeks ago when Dr. U.

After several secretive telephone calls some one purporting to be a nurse in the receiving department Informed Mrs. Masaena Le Gall, the sick woman's private nurse, that the hospital could not accept colored people in its private rooms. Dr. Vincent then procured accommodations for her at Roosevelt Hospital, Fifty-ninth street and Ninth avenue. November 17, and she was admitted, suffering from a chronic adiment.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.—A proposal was advanced Friday by Representative Weller, Democrat, New York, to award the Congressional Medal of Honor to Loineel Licorish, who was credited with the saving of twenty-two lives in the sinking of the steamship Vestris.
Weller said some persons had attempted to minimize Licorish's act, but he held there was no doubt that he saved numerous lives following the sinking of the ship.
In answer to charges that he had not performed the deeds of valor ushered to him, Quartermaster Licorish went to the offices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in New York and made an affidavit concerning his exploits.
In his affidavit Mr. Licorish set forth that he had loosened lifeboat No. 14, so it would float when the steamer sank, that he had swum back to the lifeboat, left it twice to swim for a pair of oars and a sail, had rescued twenty people, kept the lifeboat afloat all night, signaled by electric torch, using Morse code, to the "American Shipper," a rescue vessel, and had been the last one to leave the lifeboat. Concluding his affidavit, Mr. Licorish said: "I was in charge of lifeboat No. 14 from the time the Vestris sank until the time the lifeboat was rescued."

THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News
Negro Education Increasing Rapidly
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.—A feature of the 1928 annual report of the Secretary of the Interior is the recent showing made in Negro education. A comprehensive study of Negro colleges and universities, conducted by the Bureau of Education, shows "marked progress and an extrordinary demand among the Negro people for college and university education." Of the seventy-nine institutions included in the survey seventy-seven were doing college work as compared with thirty-one ten years ago. The enrollment of Negro students in those institutions totaled 13,860 as compared with 2,132 in 1917, a gain of 550 per cent.
The report points out that for every 10,000 Negroes in the United States fifteen are attending college, as against ninety for every 10,000 whites.
"With five exceptions," the report said, "the colleges included in the study were located in Southern States, indicating a widespread sentiment in the South in favor of Negro higher education.
The Burenut's study also shows that the Negroes, themselves, have not been remiss in providing higher education, seventeen of their colleges being owned, administered and financed entirely by members of their race."
The capital value of the investments in these Negro schools was fixed at $15,720,000, including land, buildings and equipment. The total productive endowment of Negro colleges ten years ago was $7,223,000 with an annual yield of $361,250, but last year the sums were $20,715,000 and $1,071,300, approximately a fourfold increase in a decade.
The survey found a shortage of teachers for Negro schools and colleges.
Mother Reprimanded For Slapping Teacher
Mrs. Henrietta Brown, 39, 1783
Third avenue, was given a reprie-
and by Magistrate Well in Harlem
Court last Wednesday when she was
arranged on a charge of disorderly
conduct made by Miss Charlotte
Lavat, white, 253 West Seventy-second
street, a teacher in P. S. 109,
215 East Ninety-ninth street.
The teacher charged that Mrs.
Brown's son, Fraser, 12, created a
disturbance in the classroom and
that, when she ejected him, he went
home and told his mother that she
had beaten him. Mrs. Brown then
returned to the school, met Miss
Lavat in the playground and slapped
her face.
"Law and Order"
"Law and Order" will be the subject of an address by Samuel Jesse Battle, a detective sergeant attached to the Sixteenth Precinct station, at the opening meeting of the Ministerial Conference, the Rev. William Lloyd Imes, chairman, on Sunday, December 16, at Salm M. E. Church, Seventh avenue and 129th street.
ODEON BOX OFFICE ROBBED OF $466 BY TWO ARMED BANDITS
Second Holdup of Harlem Theatre Cashiers Within One Week — Girl Faints After Handing Cash Through Ticket Window
The box office of the Odeon Theatre. 256 West 145th street, was boldly robbed of $466 at the point of a gun 9 o'clock Sunday night, just one week to the very hour from the time of the sensational robbery of the Lafayette Theatre box office by three unknown men, who, in each case, escaped and are still unapprehended, it is reported. The bandits took $46 in the latter case.
St. William Grant, 130 West 139th street, who was the witness against the police on account of the brutal treatment administered to Clarence Donald, 2328 Seventh avenue, on Sunday, July 22, at 138th street and Lenox avenue, was acquitted by jury on the direction of Judge George L. Donnellan, Part 8, General Sessions, yesterday, after two days' trial.
Grant testified in behalf of Donald, who was beaten by police during the so-called riot last summer. When he appeared, his testimony was so strong against the police that Grant was arrested by Detective Webber of the 6th Division In the Heights Court Room upon leaving the witness stand. It was charged by Herman Ellis, white taxicab driver, that Grant had robbed him at the point of an automatic gun on July 21 at 204 West 119th street. This was intended to destroy the effect of the testimony which Grant had given on behalf of Donald.
Instead of that, when Grant appeared in the Fifth District Court, his clothes were in ribbons, he was practically naked, suffering from three bad buns on his right arm, with his nose fractured and his skull cut, and injury to his ribs and private parts.
Grant was placed on trial after many delays on Monday, and the trial continued until yesterday. When all the evidence was in, upon a motion by Grant's counselor, former Alderman John William Smith, of 26 Cortlandt street, the judge directed a verdict of "not guilty," and stated that he believed that Grant was the victim of a frame-up by the police on account of his testimony. Judge Donnellan doubted seriously whether Ellis had ever been robbed, but was certain that Grant was innocent.
According to Jack Eisenberg, white, manager of the Odeon, George Rogan, white, the ticket taker who stands in the lobby beside the ticket crusher, had just stepped into the theatre and gone downstairs. Eisenberg said he relieved Rogan, but stood inside the door of the theatre where he could not see what was going on. He was taking tickets as the people came in.
While the lobby was thus temporarily vacant two men entered and one of them poked a gun through the iron grill of the box office. Addressing Edna Sacramento, the cashin, in a gruff voice the bandit said, "Hand over the cash, sister, and be quick!"
Mrs. Sacramento grew white with terror as she obeyed mechanically, shoving out $466 to the man under the gun's muzzle. Then she fainted. The manager immediately notified the police of the West 135th street station and Detectives Burns and Dunn began a man hunt throughout Harlem. Early yesterday morning, Detective Dunn arrested Burley Jackson, 20, 315 Edgecombe avenue, in connection with the robbery. He was arraigned in Fight Court yesterday on a murder and held without bail on a charge of robbery. The case will be heard tomorrow. In yesterday's complaint the box office loss was out at $345.
Steals Clothing of Man Who Fed Him
Pleads Guilty and Is Held for the Grand Jury
Charged with robbing the home of his benefactor, Hubert Gussom, 22, 25 West 135th street, was held in $10,000 bail for the Grand Jury when he pleaded guilty to a charge of grand larceny before Maglstrate Weil in Harlem Court Sunday.
Gussom was arrested by Detectives Kammmerer and Graham of the West 123d street station on complaint of Willard Patterson, 120 West 117th street. He told the Magistrate that when he recently met Gussom he told him of being homeless and hungry. Patterson testified that he took Gussom to his home where he permitted him to eat and sleep. Two days later when Patterson returned home he found that all of his clothing and wearing apparel was missing.
Detective Kammmerer told the Magistrate that when he arrested Gussom he was wearing most of the stolen property. He was compelled to return all he was wearing to the complainant, and when he was arraigned in court he was attired in an old pair of trousers, torn shoes and his underwear.
Most of the other property he is alleged to have stolen was sold by Gussom, he told the detective.
"You are a scoundrel," the Magistrate told Gussom. "Only a skunk would do what you did. I have no consideration for your type; $10,000 bail," the Magistrate concluded.

Complainant Fails to Appear to Press Assault
Charge
Because Allen McClendon, 15, 262 West 154th street, failed to appear to press his complaint, Samuel Stark, 57, white, 49 Division avenue, Brooklyn, who is assistant manager of the Laramie Opera House. 211 West 125th street, was discharged Friday from a charge of assault by Magistrate Well in Harlem Court.
McClendon charged that Stark struck him on the head with a club, inflicting a deep cut which required treatment by an ambulance doctor from Harlem Hospital. The alleged assault occurred in the balcony of the theatre.
The boy charged that he was seated in the balcony when Stark sought to eject him. When he resisted, Stark left, returning a short time later and striking him on the head with a club.
Stark, who stated he was an ex-policeman, denied striking the McClendon boy. He stated that the boy created a disturbance in the balcony and had thrown a lighted cigarette into the orchestra.

PRESIDENT RENEWS ANTI-LYNCHING BILL RECOMMENDATION
Says Negro's Progress in America Affords One of the Most Remarkable Incidents in This Period
WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 4.—In his last message to the Congress on the state of the Union, President Coolidge directed attention to the progress of the Negro in education and the professions, in wealth and in the arts of civilization, and renewed his recommendation for anti-lynching legislation. His message was read to both Houses of Congress Tuesday at the beginning of the second session of the Seventieth Congress.
While indications in the Bronx point to a reduction of rents beginning with the first of the year, when the new rent laws go into effect, several landlords in Harlem have already taken steps to raise rents still higher than they are at present, and a wave of protest is beginning to sweep the section. One really concern has sent a notice to a tenant paying $67 for a six-room apartment that beginning Jan. 1, 1929, the monthly rental will be $100.
Meanwhile, steps are being taken to block the tactics of unscrupulous and gouging landlords in Harlem. Several mass meetings have been held within the past few days and tenants have been advised not to pay a cent of increase and to seek redress in the courts.
Abraham Grenthal, assemblyman from the Nineteenth Assembly District and father of the Emergency Rent Laws of New York State, stated Monday that as soon as the legislature convenes he will introduce a bill to protect Harlem tenants from exorbitant increases.
John R. McNeal, head of the Tammany Hall association of that name, located at 113 West 136th street, has opened an information bureau at that address, sought legal advice and is bending the efforts of his organization toward protecting the tenants from further increases in rent. Mr. McNeal said Monday that he or his secretary would give free advice to all tenants who have received notices of increases.
The new law, passed at the last session of the legislature, makes no provision for the protection of tenants paying over $10 per month per room; and since most Harlem apartments rent for more than that, many Harlem landlords are trying to take an unfair advantage of the situation.
Harlem rents are already proportionately higher than rents in other sections of the city for the same types of buildings and any attempt to carry them still higher is sure to be fought bitterly.
L. I. Man Found Dead
Alfred Perry, 24, 115 East Merrick road, Freeport, L. I. l. was found dead beside the Long Island Railroad tracks, 200 feet from the Babylon Turnpike crossing, on Friday.
That portion of his message regarding the Negro was as follows: "For sixty-five years now our Negro population has been under the peculiar care and solicitude of the National Government. The progress which they have made in education and the professions, in wealth and in the arts of civilization, affords one of the most remarkable incidents in this period of world history. "They have demonstrated their ability to partake of the advantages of our institutions and to benefit by a free and more and more independent existence. Whatever doubt there may have been of their capacity to assume the status granted to them by the Constitution of this Union is being rapidly dissipated. Their co-operation in the life of the Nation is constantly enlarging.
"Exploiting the Negro problem for political ends is being abandoned and their protection is being increased by those States in which their percentage of population is largest. Every encouragement should be extended for the development of the race. The colored people have been the victims of the crime of lynching, which has in late years somewhat decreased. Some parts of the South already have wholesome laws for its restraint and punishment. Their example might well be followed by other States, and by such immediate remedial legislation as the Federal Government can extend under the Constitution."
With respect to the work of the Bureau of Education of the Department of Interior, President Coolidge reminded the Congress that while this province belongs peculiarly to the States, "yet the promotion of education and efficiency in educational methods is a general responsibility of the Federal Government."
A survey of Negro colleges and universities in the United States, he reported, has just been completed by the Bureau of Education through funds provided by the institutions themselves and through private sources. "The present status of Negro higher education was determined," he stated, "and recommendations were made for its advance."
At the beginning of his message President Coolidge painted a pleasing picture of the present state of the Union. "In the domestic field, he said, "there is tranquility and contentment, harmonious relations between management and wage earner, freedom from industrial strife, and the highest record of years of prosperity. "In foreign field there is pence, the good-will which comes from mutual understanding, and the knowledge that the problems which a short time ago appeared so omnious are yielding to the touch of manifest friendship." The Government should continue

Miss Cooper had told a reporter of The Amsterdam News on Monday, Nov. 26, the day following the night of the daring robbery, that she positively identified one of the above named men as the one who trained a gun on her and took the money.
She admitted, however, that she did not make this fact known to the police.
The four men held denied the charge of robbery, but confessed to being lookouts, the police say, while the holdup was being committed.
Seven Held: Two Freed
An hour and a half after the theatre robbery the speakeasy of Thomas Greco, white, on the corner of 147th street and Seventh avenue, was held up and robbed of $28 by three men, two of whom were captured and identified as Dorsay and Goldsboro. The third man is said to be one Robert Newton, who escaped. Dorsay and Goldsboro, under stress, are said to have informed upon Nalson, Capera and White as alleged members of their gang, together with Rudolph Richardson, 27, 127 West 134th street; Douglas Keyes, 19, alias "Hickey", C5 West 129th street; Lemie Washington, 23, alias "Turkey Buzzard," and Johnnie Walker, 19, alias "Policy Pete," 239 West 137th street, all of whom were then rounded up by the police and later implicated in various robberies.
Out of this crowd Walker was the only one to go free, together with Nelson, when the case came up for another hearing on Friday. The seven other officers were here, the other robber or violation of the Sullivan Law.
Violated Parole
Dorsey, whose first name is said to be Frederick instead of William, was held without bail for the Grand Jury upon the accusation that he violated the Sullivan Law not only by having a gun in his possession, but had secreted in his apartment 400 cartridges of the same .332 calibre.
He is also accused of having put up a fight with Patrolman Zerfas of the West 135th street station and firing two shots at him when the patrolman apprehended him in the act of the alleged holdup.
Police records also disclosed that Dorsey, at the time of his arrest, was on two years' probation on a charge of possession a order of Judge Donslain of General Sessions.
He was arrested on the rape charge by Detective Chicquette of the West 122d street station on Feb. 3, last, and placed on probation about a month later.
Goldsboro also shared Dorsey's fate of being held without bail on a robbery charge on complaint of Grecoe.
A short affidavit charging Washington, Richardson, Keyes and Walker with the robbery of $400 in jewelry from the jewelry store of Samuel Unger, 2459 Eighth avenue, near 121st street, on Nov. 13 was dismissed and a full complaint on the same charge was drawn up against all but Walker, who went free. Bail was set at $1,000 bail each for Special Sessions by Magistrate McQuade sitting in Heights Court Friday.
Bail of $5,000 for a further hearing was fixed upon Richardson on an additional charge of robbery on complaint of Ralph Porco, white, in a speakeasy at 801 Southern boulevard on Nov. 20, when $12 cash and a $50 watch and chain were stolen during a holdup.
White was held in $1,000 bail for Special Sessions on a charge of violating the Sullivan Law in that he
had a revolver in his bureau drawer at home.
Another Robbery Revealed
Capers and Keyes were implicated in still another robbery upon a appeaseance at 1961 Seventh avenue where they are said to have held up Michael Reda, white, 133 Lenox avenue, on Nov. 20. Both were held without bail to await identification and arrangement in Harlem Court where the case was transferred for a hearing on Saturday.
The roundup of the alleged bandits was headed by Acting Lieutenant Hodge of the West 132d street station, assisted by Detective O'Hara of the West 135th street station and a bevy of plainclothes men from the Thirteenth, Thirteenth-A, Fourteenth and Sixteenth prefects. Special assistance was rendered by Reserve Detective Sergent Arthur Matthews, doorman at the Lafayette Theatre, in the effort to apprehend the bold robbers. Matthews is attached to the reserve forces at the West 135th street station.
Two More Freed
Richardson and Goldsboro were freed in Heights Court Monday when their cases were heard again, this time before Magistrate Flood. Detective O'Hara, the arresting officer, recommended the release of Richardson, saying that after placing him in the lineup none of the various persons, who had complained to the police of robbery were able to identify him as an offender. He was represented by Attorney Louis A. Lavelle, 200 West 135th street.
Goldsboro was arraigned with Dorsey on two charges of robbery upon the escapeeay of Thomas Greco on Nov. 9 and 35, respectively. He was represented by Attorney Charles Francis Howe, white. 16 Franklin street, who introduced two witnesses whose testimony provided Goldsboro with two perfect alibis, one for each occasion.
Phillip Mitchell, who employed Goldaboro at the Hotel Broadmore, 255 West 102d street, told the court that on Nov. 9 at the time of the first robbery Goldaboro was on duty at the hotel as a cleaner.
Katy Williams, 195 Edgecombe avenue, Goldboro's sweetheart, told the court that her lover was at her house during the Lafayette and speakaway robberies. Goldaboro said that when he reached 149th street and Eighth avenue, after leaving Miss Williams' home, he was arrested during the excitement which was caused by the sudden flight and arrest of Dorssey immediately following the holdup at 147th street and Seventh avenue.
Dorsey "Squeala"
On the witness stand Grecco had said he was not sure of identifying Goldsboro as one of the robbers but positively knew, he said, that Dorsey was one of the men. Grecco also admitted that he failed to report the robbery of his place on Nov. 9 to the police.
Dorsey denied taking any part in the robbery of Nov. 9 but admitted that he acted as lookout for the "job" of Nov. 25. He gave the names and addresses of the three men who he said actually committed both robberies—Robert Newton. 142 West 136th street; Charlie Jesup, 20 West 132nd street, and one Pettus. 205 West 130th street. The police are looking for all three.
When asked how he knew about the holdup of Nov. 9, Dorsey said that these men told him all about it. He was held without bail for the

Grand Jury on both charges of robbery.
Lemie Washington was also held without ball for the Grand Jury on the charge of robbing Samuel Unger, the jeweler, of $400 cash and $1,500 in jewelry on Nov. 13. Unger describes that Washington and another man, not yet arrested, tied his hands with wire while he was forced to face the wall at the point of a gun. Washington then struck him on the head with some blunt instrument, he said.
Waitress Accuses Italian Employer
Girls Had to Submit to Hold Jobs, Young Woman
Charging that Italo De Iugo, Italian proprietor of the lunchroom on the northwest corner of 130th street and Eighth avenue, made improper advances to her and that no girl can work in his establishment without complying with his wishes. - Miss Thomasina Watson, 18, 2477 Eighth Street will face her former employer today for Eighth Court. Miss Watson's claim was not expected to be formally filed against De Iugo today, however, for the summons issued was for disorderly conduct. Yesterday she sought counsel to aid her to file more grave charges against the man.
The waitress, an orphan, who lived at Ridge Springs, S., until six years ago, told her story yesterday to The Amsterdam News. She secured employment at the lunchroom October 25, the girl narrated. De Iugo immediately took her into the kitchen, she charged, and deliberately put his hand beneath her clothing and fondled her body. The Italian wanted her to go out with him, and he would guarantee her a regular job and extra money if she consented to submit to his wishes, she said. Miss Watson made no promises and attempted to diplomatically put him off, she asserted. When the centimeter cold to De Iugo's advances, she stopped, she was dismissed November 26. Last Wednesday Miss Watson secured the summons at Heights Court.
Miss Watson completed her ele-
mentary education here and was a
pupil at Schools 68 and 126. She
formerly lived with an aunt. Mrs

Herman Wiley, 17, 730 East 222d street, a medical student in a private school at 115th street and Fifth avenue and the protege of a prominent white New Yorker, was arrested and charged with being a member of a group of four other youths who are said to make the theft and sale of automobiles their specialty.

Death stalked thrice into the families of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Joyce, 210 West 159th street, last week and left two relatives dead here and one in Chicago.
Mr. Joyce was dealt a double blow when his father and a cousin succumbed. Last Monday he went to Chicago to attend the funeral of the parent, William J. Joyce, an instructor in the Pullman Porters' Training School. Services were held last Wednesday.

Mrs. Pinoer, the sister of Mrs. Joyce, was a practical nurse. She is survived by her husband, Clifford Pinoer; six children, Dolores, 16; Horace, 14; Alma, 12; Marile, 9; Francis, 10, and Carmen, 7; her father, Randolph Whithall; two sisters, Mrs. Philletus Joyce and Miss Jessie Walthall, and two sisters, Randolph Jr. and Roland Walthall.

(Continued from Page 1.)
Mrs. Brown tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock at Mother Zion Church. The eulogy will be delivered by Bishop J. S. Caldwell of the A. M. E. Zion Church. E. W. Payne, president of the board of trustees, will be in charge.

Mrs. Brown was born January 2, 1879, at Alexandria, Va. She was the daughter of Edmund and Sarah Ann Hill. Her early education was received in the Alexandria public schools.
Later she attended Howard University, but did not graduate. Following a period in Washington, Mrs. Brown went to Philadelphia, with har only brother, the Rev. Winston B. Hill, now pastor of the Northeast Baptist Church, Washington.
In the Quaker City she met the Rev. James Walter Brown of Elizabeth City, N. C., who was a student and later a graduate of Lincoln University, near Philadelphia. The two were married in 1902. No children were born of the union.
The Rev. and Mrs. Brown came to New York sixteen years ago and he took over the pastorate of Mother A. M. E. Zion, a church considerably smaller than it is now and located on Eighty-ninth street. Mrs. Brown was an active worker and was president of the Progressive Club and the Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society.
Scores of telegrams and telephone calls poured into the parsonage at 155 West 136th street early this week in testimony of her wide circle of friends and acquaintances. The deceased is survived by her husband, two brothers, the Rev. Winston B. Hill and Attorney Edmund Hill Jr.; two nephews, Claudius E. and Winston B. Hill Jr., and one niece, Miss Thelma N. Hill, all of Washington.
Whose Little Boy?
A little boy three years old was found wandering in the hallway of 206 West 145th street by Mrs. Sylvia Brown on Saturday. Apparently the child had been abandoned. Police at the West 135th street station placed the little fellow in the care of the Children's Society.

Justice Tempered By Age of Violators
Youth stood in favor of violators of the Sullivan law Monday in Special Seasons when one young man paid a fine of $25 and another went to the workhouse for fifteen days. Henry Seabrook, 19, 2634 Eighth avenue, entered a plea of guilty and received the light sentence from Justice McInery. The fine was paid by Charles Johnson, 18, 345 Lencox avenue, a shipping clerk who is the sole support of his sick father, a widowed sister and her two children.
Love for the sister led Johnson into the toils of the law Nov. 18, when, he engaged in a bitter wrangle with Simon Wilson, same address, because he was disrespectful to the youth's kin. So loud became their altercation that Officer Pollack entered the basement where they were quarreling and arrested Johnson after discovering a loaded 50-caliber firearm. Johnson brought light story and recommendation by his employers, the Exact-size Dress Company, 501 Fifth avenue, saved him from getting more than the choice of five days or the fine.
Slashes Own Throat
James Martin, 44, whose address is given by the police as 2373 Seventh avenue, cut his own throat and incarcerated his breast and left wrist in a vigorous but futile effort to take his own life early Monday morning at the corner of 135th street and Lenox avenue. Patrolman Gordan of the West 135th street station rushed him to Harlem Hospital, close by, for treatment by Dr. Pena. For a time he remained unidentified. Police declare he was demented.
Urges Anti-Lynch Bill in Message
(Continued from Page 1.) to foster its system of compensation, rehabilitation, hospitalization and insurance for the disabled of the World War and their dependants. Any proposals for additional legislation dealing with veterans' relief should receive most searching scrutiny from the Congress. The President recommended that a survey be made by congressional committees to determine whether legislation to secure the consolidation of various public agencies now dealing with matters of veterans' relief is desirable.
The present status of agriculture, President Coolidge reported, "although greatly improved over that of a few years ago, beapeaks the need of further improvement, which calls for determined effort of farmers themselves, encouraged and assisted by wise public policy."
"The country has duly adopted the Eighteenth amendment." President Coolidge stated. "Those who object to it have the right to advocate its modification or repeal. Meantime, it is binding upon the Nation and State Governments and all our inhabitants." Other subjects discussed by the President in his message included co-operation of the Government with American business, the development of commercial aeronautics, railroad consolidation with a view of increasing the efficiency of transportation and lessening its cost to the public, the extension of the air mail service particularly to the West Indies, river and harbor improvements, the leasing of Muscle Shoals, restrictive immigration, conservation of natural resources, and the public building program.

13 BURGLARIES NETTED HIM $5.000
High Cost of Getting Married Given as Dental Student's Excuse for Thefts
High Cost of Getting Married Given as Dental Student's Excuse for Thefts
According to Police, Brooklyn Youth Confessed Thirteen Burglaries, Which Netted Him $5,000
in Three Months
The high cost of loving is said by the police to have been the cause of Theodore Phillips, 24, 3 St. Felix street, Brooklyn, leading a double life -- that of a student of dentistry by night and a flat burglar by day. The police say he admitted thirteen burglaries in the Parkville section of Brooklyn during the last three months, which netted him nearly $5,000, mostly in cash and jewelry.
"I wanted to get married," Phillips is quoted as saying, "and that costs so much nowadays that you have to hold two jobs, even if one isn't legitimate." This is said to be the reason he gave for the commission of his various crimes.
Did She Betray?
One of two versions of Phillips arrost report that he was apprehended through the assistance of his erstwhile Lancee, a Harlem chorine, whom the police say threw him over in disgust when she learned that he was not the gentleman wall-off that she had been led to believe, but instead worked as an elevator operator and alleged daylight robber.
Confesses Razor Attack on Woman
Fugitive From Justice Since June 7 Held for Grand Jury
"Judge, can't I have my trial."
The choreine, whose name the police did not reveal, is said to have made a date with her sweepstake for one clock last Thursday morning in West 135th street. Fingerprints had already fastened upon Phillips the crime of burglaring the home of Morris Newman, white, 5419 Fifteenth avenue, the day previous. Phillips was met by Detectives Moreland, Higgins and Hanson of the Parkville station instead of his charming choreine. Thus does one report describe his arrest.
Currency amounting to $500 and a wrist watch were taken from the Newman home while the family slept. When the police arrived to investigate their report of robbery they found fingerprints on the dresser and at a window off the fire center.
Arlington-tenant of Detectives Han, of the Parkville station found identical fingerprints in the polyglyph files which recorded that their owner was one Theodore Phillips, sentenced to five months in the contemptuary in 1927 for burglary. They got busy. Detectives discovered that burglars' loot from recent robberies in the Parkville and Flatbush sections had been pawned with a dealer in East Manhattan. They covered the shop all day last Wednesday, until finally their patience was rewarded with the appearance of Phillips, whom they arrested. Thus does another report describe his arrest. Back at the Parkville police station Phillips at first denied everything, the police said, but when confronted with the fingerprints, confessed to committing a dozen other robberies. In his rooms they found six watches and two stickpins, part of his loot, they say.
He then revealed that he worked as an elevator operator in the Bronx part of the night and had attended the Bodee Institute of Mechanical Dentistry, 1755 Broadway, for two years. His decision to get married led him to take up the profession of burglary, he is reported to have told the police.
Tuskegee Welcomes
Albon L. Holsey
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE. Dec. 3.
—Attesting their high regard for Albon L. Hokey, secretary of the Colored Voters' Division of the National Republican Committee during the campaign, just ended, the men of Tuskegee Institute, the Veterans' Hospital and the community, one hundred strong, welcomed him home again at a banquet in Dorothy Hall here recently.
"if the Negro is to be a real factor in the Republican Party," Mr. Holmes said, addressing the gathering, "he will have to cease being a mendicant; he will have to put something into the campaign and not merely take from it; he will have to contribute to the campaign funds as other people do, rather than merely receive handouts from the budget; he will have to obligate the party to him after election day." "Party supporters are divided into two classes, the givers and the takers. The Negro is the perpetual taker, consequently there is little left for him after election day, not even a seat at the council table."

Attack on Woman
Fugitive From Justice Since
June 7 Held for
Grand Jury
"Judge, can't I have my trial now?" headed Lindsay Tyrus, 42, 19 Atlantic avenue, Jersey City, N.J., when he was arraigned in Heights Court Friday before Magistrate McQuade on a charge of cutting Mabel Lomax, 30, a waltress, 105 West 137th street, with a razor on June 7, last. Ball was fixed at $3,000 for the Grand Jury, but Tyrus couldn't understand why he was being led, to fall without having the case fully tried then and there.
Tyrus has been a fugitive from justice since June 7. He lived in Philadelphia and when he returned here last Wednesday he stepped from the train at PennsYaua station into the arms of Detective Filmer of the West 113th street station. For a time it was feared that Miss Lomax would die as the result of her wounds, which required twenty switches and confined her to a bed in Hilbram Hospital for sixteen days. It all grew out of an alteration between her and Tyrus very early in the morning in the hallway of her home. Both sides of the story seemed to indicate that a healthy scrap occurred between them, during which Tyrus. It is charged, pulled out a razor and slashed Miss Lomax on the left side of the neck. Other skisses were made on her ear, hand and throat.
"It wasnt a razor, it was a knife." Tyrus said in court Friday, but Detective Flinter refuted his statement by telling the court that the bloody razor had been found. Tyrus pleaded guilty to the charge of felonious assault.
WASHINGTON. Doc. 3.—Justice Jennings Holley in Equity Court No. 1 recently granted Mrs. Eleanor N. Russell, 602 K street northwest, a limited divorce from Dr. Aaron A. Russell S. a dentist, 1217 S street northwest. The couple had been married over twenty-five years. Justice Holley indicated that he would make permanent an order for temporary alliamy of $17.50 a week. Mrs. Russell charged her husband with infidelity, but did not seek an absolute divorce because of her religious faith. She is a Catholic and navigated the court that her religious vows kept her from asking for an absolute divorce.

Two Freed Following Suspicion of Theft
Five minutes after Robert Reaves, 30, 141 West 145th street, parked his taxiic at 149th street and Seventh avenue Thursday evening, he returned to find sitting on the driver's seat Charles Carter, 27, 2273 Eighth avenue, and inside the car was Reese O. Strause, 28, 484 St. Nicholls avenue. Upon his approach Carter got inside with Strause and both men announced their destination. Reaves drove off but when he reached 149th street and Mott avenue, he called Patrolman Henry Mack of Traffic A and had his passengers arrested on a charge of attempted grand larceny. When Muskratto McQuade heard the story in Heights Court on Friday he dismissed the prisoners.
U.S. Court Ends Probe of Vestris, While Licorish Awaits New Honors
U.S. Court Ends Probe of Vestris, While Licorish Awaits New Honors
Officials of the United States Court of Inquiry thronged Monday over the sister ship of the Lamport & Holt steamer Westris, which foundered November 12. They were to make their final report on the disaster today. Meanwhile, Lionel Licorish, young quartermaster, who turned his back upon the plaudits of the public, was preparing for another testimonial to his bravery tomorrow.
The youthful Seaman, banking in the sunshine that is for public idols alone, will be tendered a civic reception and dance at Rockland Palace, 155th street and Eighth avenue. A galaxy of stars from Broadway and other theatrical thoroughfares will put on a show in honor of Leighish before the expected crowd. Down at 25 South street his eighty shipmates restlessly await the order to leave the Seaman's church Institute and board a vessel for the West Indies. They who are credited with saving at least forty lives and blamed for the loss of 113 alternately by survivors are seeing but little of the glory given the Barbados youth. He continues to be besieged with theatrical contracts and will go on a tour soon, according to George Caldwell, his manager.
Whites as well as Negroes will honor Liceish tomorrow night. The celebrated Paul Ash will act as master of ceremonies. At the same time Ernest Morrison, who prefers to be known as Sunshine Sammy; Craddock and Shadney, Bandmaster Vincent Lonez, a Leonard Harper rove and John C. Smith's orchestra are scheduled to exhibit their wares.
Captain Henry McConkey and Captain E. P. Jossop, naval experts, sat in on the sessions conducted by Federal Attorney Tuttle, were theinking of the vessel and the enormous damage. The steamer Vauhain is constructed on the same lines as the Vestris and will form a basis for the final deductions.
Criminal and civil actions loomed as the end of the probe neared. While relatives of Harlemites lost in the mishap made no indication of the amounts, they would possibly sue for, the report persists that the British ship owners will be asked to pay heavy penalties for their losses.
Drug Clerk Held On Statutory Charge
Angelo Sosa. 26. a drug clerk, 40 St. Nicholas avenue, was held in 35,000 hall for the Grand Jury when arraigned Wednesday before Magistrate Wellin Harlem Court on a statutory charge made by Eva Angola. 13, an artist, of the same address.
The girl charges that she was engaged to marry Sosa and that he introduced her to his parents and to their many friends as his future wife. As a result of his many promises to marry her, she went to live in the Sosa home, the young woman alleges. She charges that, on September 30 last, he attacked her. He now refuses to marry her, she said, and she notified the police, and Sosa was arrested.
Detectives Graham and Kamerer of the West 123d street station told the Magistrate that when they arrested Sosa he admitted his guilt.

No One Killed, but Man Confessed Murder
JEFFERSON. Mo. Dec. 2. (ANP) After serving four years and eleven months of a ten-year sentence for a murder which he never committed, Fester Thomas was released from the Missouri penitentiary here Wednesday, when an investigation showed that the man whom he was supposed to have killed was yet alive. A subsequent investigation showed that no one had been killed at the dance and that Young had been only slightly wounded, the fight occurring in the dark. Young was found alive in Arkansas and the investigators expressed the opinion that Thomas had pleaded guilty through fright. The sentence of William Ross, who was also serving a ten-year sentence for murder, was commuted, after Ross had served three years. The man, however, will be returned to Oklahoma, where he escaped from prison prior to committing the murder in this state.

A one-legged customer held up a two-legged tailor and robbed him of a suit of clothes and $27 and bit him for good measure, the police report, Saturday night.
The alleged offender was Shynon Jones, 471 Lenox avenue, and the victim was Thomas Dl Salvo, white, a tailor with a shop at 677 Third avenue. Shynon was arraigned in Morrisonia Court Sunday morning on a charge of robbery.
The one-logged Jones hobbled into the store on a crutch and ordered an $18 suit which had to be altered on account of a natural deformity, which made one of Jones' legs one third shorter than the other. After some talk about the cost a bargain was struck which brought the price down to $15.
The repairs made and the suit wrapped. Dl Salvo reached out to take the $20 bill. Jones had shown him but instead was confronted with a rusty platoil. He was order-

ed to the rear of his store and robbed of #27. Enough was too much for Dl Salvo so he followed Jones to the street and, braving the gun, which funnel, he engaged in a tussle with Jones who ere this had discarded his crutch and sank his teeth into Dl Salvo's right arm, it is said.
Petrolumn Cruger of the Alexander avenue station appeared on the scene and separated the men. At the police station Jones protested his innocence saying that he had been mistaken for "some other one-legged man." According to the police, however, the bill he had shown to pay for his suit was found in his vest and the cash from Dl Salvo's wallet was found hidden in his underwear.

The Amsterdam News Grows Older
IF WE had had a party in honor of the birthday anniversary of The Amsterdam News, you would have been invited to be "among those present." Yesterday, however, passed like any other Tuesday in our newspaper office—a day of hard work—and yet it actually marked the nineteenth year of the existence of Harlem's largest weekly.
Editors—The men who have served in the capacity as editors of The Amsterdam News are as follows: James H. Anderson, who founded the paper at 205 West Sixty-first street and who now lives in Orange, N. J.; George W. Harris, present editor of The New York News; T. Thomas Fortune, now deceased, commonly called the Father of Negro Journalism: C. V. Briggs; J. E. Robinson, who now writes for the Bridgeport, Conn., Sunday Herald, and William M. Kelley, who has been the editor-in-chief since Nov. 22, 1922. During the time served by Fortune, Briggs and Robinson, the late Edward A. Warren, who owned controlling interest in the paper.
The first issue of The Amsterdam News stated that it would become "a daily paper devoted to the interests of the colored race." For one week in August, 1927, this prophecy was true. Nevertheless, it can be said that as a weekly publication The Amsterdam News tries to give to Harlem concentrated coverage, leaving the national field to other Negro newspapers. To become a permanent daily newspaper is still its aim.
Harlem has been the birthplace of many Negro newspapers, but only a few have been successful in bucking the storm. We are, therefore, proud to say (as a parody on the slogan of The Afro-American): "We're nineteen years old and never missed an issue."—T.E.R.

While I have omitted discussing the mattress in the past, I consider it the most important article of the household. Effective rest, as well as effective exercise, is receiving increased attention in the consideration of living habits that promote health.
We are finding out each day what an important part the mattress plays in obtaining effective rest. This means comfortable beds—not the feather bed of a generation ago, but the scientifically built mattress of today.
There are people who believe it is better to sleep on a hard mattress, but those who have made a careful study of this question will agree that the mattress should permit the body to rest in a normal posture, without disturbing it, means that the mattress should permit the hips and shoulders to slip
further in than the rest of the body, and yet not conform so closely to the body as to induce heat and inadequate skin respiration. I follow, then, that a mattress should have a degree of resilience that keeps it without a definite sagging, with the weight of the body, which lessens its comfort. This makes a mattress an important purchase for, not only must it be comfortable, but it must be filled with very clean material of a durable quality if obviously impossible, in buying it so open it and examine the contents.
A label on the mattress is, therefore, necessary if the purchaser wants to keep the netual contents. It is your responsibility the manufacturer is legally bound

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN
Personal Charm
TOO many of us over estimate the value of physical beauty. It is really personal charm, or the lack of it, that plays the great part in our lives. Some of us are lucky enough to be born with it, all of us enough to have the power to acquire it.
I cannot emphasize enough the very great part that charm plays in a woman's life. A charming woman wins her way into the hardest of hearts. She has a power over men and women which women who have only physical beauty cannot understand.
Of what does personal charm consist?
Self-love gives us friendliness, the power of self-expression, sympathetic understanding and a sweet and loving disposition are some of the outstanding characteristics.
A charming personality grips you. The coldest person is affected by the magnetism of a charming person.

You haven't met the right type of girl for you. What about the follows with whom you work? Haven't they got sisters and girl friends to whom they could introduce you? Pal with the boys and the right sort of girls will come along in time. Another thing: Don't go about with them as superiority. You'll find that it will make you very repellent to all with whom you come in contact.

to give you a truthful description of the filling which has been used in the manufacture of the mattress. So important is this question of the label that many States have passed laws making it necessary to label mattresses sold and manufactured within the State. It must be made of vinyl or linen; it must be made of standard material; it must give a truthful description of the materials used. It must also state whether the mattress is filled with new, renovated or second-hand material. In this State we find yellow labels used for second-hand material and be for renovated mattresses. But the label can be of service to you only if renovated with the types of fillings used when you have a general knowledge of what to expect from the mattress you purchase.
New Cotton, Kapok and Hair Most Popular.
Some of the materials permitted by bedding laws are excelsior, sea moss and corn husk, but in better mattresses the most common matto- are cotton, kapok and hair. Perch is most commonly known material in cotton mattresses "cotton mattress" covers any matt- made of cotton or cotton felt. The term "picked cotton" describes a mattress made from cotton which has been passed through a cotton picker to open and loosen it. The cotton is often placed in the tick by hand or blow on. A blower, it is obvious that, after a relatively short period of use, such a mattress will become lumpy.

The cost of this mattress, however, is very low.
Cotton felt comes next. Here the picked cotton has bens put through the renovating processes and over the machine of a gassitting machine which departs the cotton mattress in resilient layers. The cotton mattress manufacture makes the cotton felt mattress superior in comfort and length of life to the picked cotton mattress and is, therefore, a more expensive product.
Soak, another widely known material, the mattress filling, is commonly known as cotton. It is extremely light and when new is resilient and comfortable. It must never be forgotten, however, when using a kapok mattress, that frequent sunning, string and turning will prolong its life.
It helps for mattresses have stood in high for many years. There are innumerable corresponding values. The three main sources of hair are horse hair
cattle hair and hair from hogs. The tail hair is the longest and best, though hair taken from the mane of horses is used as well. Mog hair, being abbot, is used only in combination with longer hair. Naturally, the raw hair must be put through extensive cleaning processes and sterilizing before it is used. Black hair has the largest use. This is either natural or dyed black. It is thought that the dye may be a preventive of moths and vermin, and, for this reason, the dyed hair mattress is preferred by many people. Remember, now, that every good mattress needs a good airing.

Looking Your Best BY FANNETTE
Avoid Extremes
ONE does not have to go to ex-tremes to attain smartness or distiction-in dress. So many of us believe that we have to buy a dress that's short and tight-fitting in order to appear stylish. Like everything else, though, short skirts are becoming more popular. I met a smartly dressed girl recently. She was indeed attractive for the simple reason that she was "dressed different." First of all, her dress was several inches below the knee and yet she didn't look old-fashioned by any means. Her dress was of lovely material and draped in the latest style. The length of her dress was the same of distinction. There's always mystery surrounding the concerned. This woman simply made her knees mysterious by their non-appearance.
Another extreme into which we are likely to drift is that of wearing our clothes too tight-fitting. Many of us have large hips, which for some reason or another look just right in a store mirror. But, when we get home, although curves and contours are in size, they are still modest in size.
If it's a topsoil between size 16 and 18, it's usually rafter to take the 18. Dresses are not in the habit of stretching, you know.
There's a young friend of mine who buys any number of new dresses, but they all look so skimpy and short that she looks as if she wears only partially dressed.
Don't be afraid of "looking dressed" You'll look 100 per cent better.

Constipation
Often Causes Sickness
"About fifty years ago," says Mr. Lewis G. O'Sheildis, of Porterville, Ala., "my mother gave me the first dose of Black-Drought, and I have taken it ever since when I needed a medicine for constipation. I need this remedy all my married life, in raising my children.
"I have used Black-Draught frequently for heartburn, as I have had spells of this kind, off and on, for years. This follows indigestion, and indigestion comes close on constipation.
"I have found that the best way to head off trouble is to begin taking Black-Draught in time. It relieves me of dixiness, tightness in the chest and backache.
"By getting rid of impurities, Black-Draught helps to keep the system in good order. I always keep it in the home, and have recommended it to many people, in my time. I always say a good word for a good medicine."

Tom Anderson Liked Brand of Ball as Played by Howard and Lincoln Teams
Failed to See Ghost of "Jazz" Byrd Thanksgiving Day at Stadium, but Waxes Enthusiastic Over Classic
LINCOLN LOST GAME BUT HAD "GUTS"
Amsterdam News Special Correspondent Is of the Opinion That Greater Experience of Coach West Had Its Effect
(By THOMAS J. ANDERSON)
The ghost of "Jazz" Byrd has disappeared from Clark Griffith Stadium where it has hovered since the great Bison massacre of 1924. Partly because of the magic appetite the Lion is supposed to acquire at Thanksgiving time and partly because of well-founded rumors that Coach Meyers had achieved a metanorphosis with Doc Morrison's team since the latter was deported to parts unknown at midseason, twenty thousand sport followers and their cohorts snatched into Washington's famous ball park to witness the 1928 edition of the Howard-Lincoln classic. Put it down that anyone who came away disappointed with the brand of football that he saw is a crab. The Lincoln team, which lost to Howard by two touchdowns, was equipped with everything human ingenuity can bostow on a gridiron eleven, including plenty of guts. This was sufficient to win, had not the Bison, under Charlie West, famous allaround athlete of Washington and Jefferson University, been surcharged with an equal amount of the same material, plus a little more experience.
The game started promptly at 2 o'clock while most of the celebrities were milling around in vain endeavors to find the right seats for parading their fineries for the adoration of the proletariat. Lincoln won the toss and elected to kick down hill to Howard, who defended the East goal. Coles received the leather on his 5-yard line and galloped straight ahead 15 places. Using a varied attack, Quarterback Payne skipped the Bison past four successive first downs in Lincoln's 10-yard line. The Lincoln line, alight by a 2-yard offside penalty, held for downs and the hall went to the Lions after an unsuccessful forward kick and zone. LaMar kicked to Payne, who was downed in his tracks by Cotton on Lincoln's 46-yard line.
Marshall hit off tackle for 10 yards, then two more. Coles squirmed through a broken field for 20 yards, then proved futile. A short pass,马斯·库勒, netted 15 yards. Howard fumbled on the next play and Lincoln recovered. LaMarr sent the plkskin to a punt, the way of a punt. Marshall snuck the center on a conceived ball play for 11 yards. Coles kicked to Lincoln's hard line. Lincoln fumbled the ball, the play and Howard proceeded to pass.
Howard did the Alphonse-Gaston lift in recovery and kicked for 11 yards. Payne, who returned the play 11 yards, Coles added 5 yards on two charges at the line. Another offside penalty ret Howard back on Lincoln's 10-yard line and LaMar the putt to Lincoln's 11-yard line, the ball being partially blocked. Marshall threw away his helmet and butted off guard for 8 yards. A pass. Marshall to Cole, was ruled successful when a Lincolnite intercepted the receiver. Marshall could rammed the receiver. Lincoln's twoyard line, Coles drove off the kick on the next play for 6 points. Payne's attempted drop kick for the extra point was blocked. Captain Martin ran through the entire Howard line soon after the next kick-off and was headed for a collision with bronze in down on Howards' 20-yard line. This brought the Lincoln stands in their feet and was one of the big thrills of the game. Just as the half closed Payne received a short pass from Marshall and, added by some interference from Sallie, raced 50 yards across the goal line, could since he was thrown out of bounds on Lincoln's two-yard line.
The Lincoln team showed the effects of Coach Meyer's lecture during the intermission by temporarily outfighting and outwitting the Howardites. Lincoln kicked to Coles, who returned the ball to the 35-yard line. After Marshall had skidded to intercepted a pass and returned it 5 yards. Lincoln kicked for a touchback. When the ball was returned to the 20-yard line, Payne kicked to midfield where Martin sniffed. Salle recovered for Howard. Another pass, Marshall to Cole, added 13 yards to the ball and midfield down through eight guard. On the next play Marshall ran back to Lincoln's 20-yard line and hurled a bullet-like pass into the end zone to Banks for Howard's second touchdown. The try for the extra point failed again. Nothing happened during the remainder of the third quarter in quarterfinals to Banks. Howard's R. O. T. C. band had begun to play "Tang" to Lincoln.
Lincoln tried desperately to score in the final quarter. Three long passes ate up 60 yards between him and Howard's goal. But the offence on Howard was narrowly reached. Howard's 24-yard line, which did some excellent line plunging during this period, repeatedly he wilted on tackle or around end for substantial gains, which made him look like he had not been caught earlier in the game. Howard informed some inane lines he wilted in this period, ushering pass, fraying to Marshall, to a very effectively around defended in the quarter. Howard reached in the second half, but the offensively fell through as Clark intercepted a forward just as the referee blew his ball. But the 1925 edition of the Howard's sixth inning, Final Howard, 12; Lincoln, 10.

COLLEGIANS HAD AN EASY TIME
Romped Away From Settle- ment and Will Meet Buff- foales Monday
(By FRANCIS).
The Original New York Collegians resumed their court activities on Monday night, November 26, when they met the Henry Street Settlement team at the depository Crain, and administered the second trimming to that team by the date 15 to 26.
The due dates between these teams indicated a thriller for their second meeting, but the last engagement was a disappointment so far as thrills are concerned.
Both teams seemed to be way off on their previous play, and as a result the contest was only mildly interesting. Perhaps this was due to the lack of any of New York State champs who had undertaken their schedule due to the blowing up of the "Million Dollar" Alhambra Ballroom project.
However, the Collegians played good enough to win decisively, their second win from the Settlement team, which is one of the leading white hats in City.
At half time the Collegians led 16 to 10, but run away from the visitors in the second half.
The next game of the champions will be against the Buffaloes, on Wednesday night. December 12, at the Renalance Casino. Both these teams vie for the season's leadership in amateur ranks, and are possessed of rare ability; on side can record an off night in this game, and it should bring out one of the season's best exhibitions.

It was the homecoming game for Tennessee State and it is understood that awards of 40 plump came from all the State to witness the spectacle.

Bordentown Runs Riot Over Storer in Final Minutes of Play
BORDENTOWN, N. J., Thanksgiving Day.—After being held scoreless for the first forty minutes of play, the Bordentown eleven took advantage of a crucial break of the game, the Bordentown College eleven under in 32-40, the break that spalled victory for the Jerseyets and defeat for the West Virginians came toward the end of the third quarter, when Storer stopped and determined Bordentown offense to take the ball on her own yard line, and the hearts of her rocation by punting on the six-yard line. Given the ball again, Ironsides tallied her first touchdown. The first half saw pretty defensive play by both eleven, neither team being able to advance past its opponent's forty-yard line. In the game, the tape on yarriage gained, using her superior weight to decided advantage through the line.
The third quarter was a repetition of the first two, until the break came that gave Bordentown its first chance to score, Simpson inking the coveted line. Shortly afterward, the coveted line. Tillman to Russ, gave the lanky end a chance to scamper through for the second counter. The same player a moment later stole a pass from the very arms of a Storer back and turndown to Russ, the third touchdown for the home team. Tillman and Welles accounted for the other two tallies.
The game brought out a crowd of rooters from all parts of New Jersey to see the final effort of the Watson-coached team that bowed only to Morgan during the season.
Pirates Pile Up Big Score on the Colonials
The Mother Zion Pirates defeated the Colonials to the time of 59 to 37 of Mother Zion Community House instead. The game was an interesting and hard fought one from the beginning to end. However, the fast scoring team was defeated by Johnson, Odems, Wobb, and Symonds, finally overcame them.
The game was also featured by the smart heart of Nicholas, Taylor and Travis.

PIONEERS WENT DOWN FIGHTING
PIONEERS WENT DOWN FIGHTING
But Renaissance Did Not Have to Extend to Win Sunday Night
(By FRANCIS)
Picking up where they left off Thanksgiving night when they defeated the strong Hakauk team, the Renaissance Five tackled the Pascalie Ploneers last Sunday night at the Renaissance Casino and in a free scoring game defended them 51-40. They won the game and shuffled hunch of ball tossers, possessed of fine shots and calculated to give any team trouble, but the Renaissance, while not nearly up to the fine fettle they were in Thanksgiving night, still gave little doubt as to which was the better team. The champions started out with Ricks and Tann on the forward line, Sanders at pivot, and jinking and Mayers on defense, and so the team piled up a good sized lend that created a slidod score, but the New Jerseyies showed that they were very much on the fight by staging a fine rally that pulled them to within a few points of the Renaissance's score to half, which ended 29 to 21, with the champions on the long end.
In the second half, Happy Ricks let loose, and started dropping them in from all angles of the court, which gave the Renaissance a comeback, and threatened for the rest of the game. Monroe and Stoicum relieved Ricks and Sanders during the closing minutes of the game.
Ricks with 18 points was top score man for the evening, while Kentage left for the players with 15 points, the team. Next, Newark Hobrew Glants, another of New Jersey's star attractions, will try and set the colored champions back on their home court, a thing that has not been done as yet this year. The prolaminary game was highly contested because the Scholastics and the Metro-Diamonds, both tied for the lead in the Eastern Colored Basketball League, came through in good style 29 to 18, utter being tested at the end of the first half, 8 to 7.

Captain Byrd and "Beau" Guess Particular Luminaries for Hampton in Hectic Struggle on Armstrong Field Which Ended 25-0 in Favor of Institute Players
WIN THE C. I. A. A. CHAMPIONSHIP
Virginia Belle, in person of Francis Drew, crowned "Miss Hampton" Before the Clash Started, Which Left Virginia Union on the Short End of the Score
HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Nov. 30.—Hampton's Blue and White Irc men, conquerers of all members of the 'C. I. A. A. crushed Union University's Pawning Panthers for the championship honors of the C. I. A. A. in a hectic struggle on Armstrong Field, which ended 25-0. It was Captain George E. Byrd, who was playing his last game for the Blue and White, that led the attack that spelled defeat for the pawning and chawing panther. Twice did Captain Byrd cross the goal line as a result of his unanny ability to snatch passes from all angles in the field. Captain "Jazz" as he is often called, ran a full 50 yards for the first score when Jones winged him a short pass about 10 yards over the line. He stroked down the sideline with two stalwart escorts. Morton and Guess.
Captain Byrd was not alone in his glory for Beau Guess, a product of the far West—whore men are men, and women are governors—was a hero, colorful in victory. Guess was one of the powers behind the race that registered seventeen first downs to Union's two. Guess accounted for a touchdown when only a few inches were needed to make first down for the Seasiders. Coach Gideon E. Smith's line functioned with perfection and precision. Never were they in danger of being scored on; on the other hand their charging was so fast and furious that Union in her many attempts to complete trick plays fumbled and usually was thrown for a loss. Moore, Hampton's substitute fullback for Jones, accounted for the last touchdown. Moore, it may be remembered, was the whole show in the West Virginia Colleges some.

The first quarter found Coach Smith's machine in a scoring attitude. Their first play after an exchange of punts was Breaux and Baker was to try a new passes. The first two were unsuccessful, but Jones finally whipped a short ten-yard pass to Byrd over the line, and the ball was connected, and Byrd sped—as only the can indicate—down the sideline with team-mates cutting down would-be tacklers. Morton and Anderson scored that crossed the goal line with him for the only score of the half.
The third quarter found Captain Breaux and his henchmen, Cotton and Allen, were fighting hard for a score via the passing ruta, but everything was smothered and coveted by the team they were only stopped by such tackling and theoney Gaines and Country McGown. Hampton received the ball on her 30-yard line and started a drive for the second touchdown of the game. A first from Bean Guess and one from Jones put the ball on the 10-yard line. Here Guess was called for the hit for 11 yards off right tackles and a touchdown. In both cases final points were not made.
The fourth quarter found Union with her back to the wall, subject to the driver of Hampton's rippling and tearing hacks. Here is where she was placed. Hampton started a touchdown drive 10 yards from the goal. The Seasiders advanced the ball, to the 2yard line but no farther, as the Panthers' forward wall was working nicely. Breux kicked out to the 2yard line only to be faced again with the ball. Guess was going pretty, and would have registered the third tally, but his ankle became injured, so he retired in favor of Duck Moore of West Virginia fame. Moore carried the oval over the third touchdown. Hampton kicked in Union who
started a fatal passing game. King
intercepted a pass and ran to the
20-yard line. Scott pulled a first
down and then dropped back to

Byrd. Byrd crossed the line for the

Roll a tropical hurricane, a Southern eruption all into one, and you will get set launched by the world's colored champion Holman's newly formed American League night at the Renaissance Casino, when a heavy score of 44 to 27.
The Casino was packed almost to suisse fans, and they were rewarded with famous championship quintet has ever won. No team on cardinals did better than them, of them, as currently shifty and fleet of foot, their hands the hands of an expert; their shoofly deadly, and their five-man defense impre imagine, if you will, such national Holman, Davey Banks, and "Red" Sherh through a twenty-minute first half, with successful try at their own basket; add 8 inches, the tallest of top-norch pivot get the tap at the jump, an asset in of stand the kind of game the colored charmer Holman played, the minutes of the first Hakoua team consisted of four fouls.

Roll a tropical hurricane, a Southern tornado and an Italian volcano eruption all into one, and you will get some idea of the fury of the attack launched by the world's colored champion Renalissance team against Nat Holman's newly formed American League Hakonah Five on Thanksgiving night at the Renalissance Casino, when they were buried beneath the top-heavy score of 44.10.27
The Custino was packed almost to suffocation with the faithful Renalsance fans, and they were rewarded with one of the greatest games the famous championship quintet has ever played.
No team on earth could have defended them Thanksgiving night; they did everything required of them, as champions should; they were extremely shifty and fleet of foot, their passing deft and like rapper thrusts in the hands of an expert, their shooting both of foils and field goals deadly, and made the defense immune. Perhaps if you will, such nationally known offensive stars as Nat Holmum, Davey Banks, and "Red" Sherr, playing wholly on the defense through a twenty-minute first half, with no time to break through for a successful try at their own basket; add to this "Stretch" Mechan, 6 feet 8 inches, the tallest of top-movet pitch add to his fast company, calculated to get the tap at the jump, an asset in offensive play, and you can understand the kind of game the colored champions played.
For fifteen minutes of the first; half the only points secured by the Makoha team consisted of four fouls. Their first field goal came through a momentary set-down of the Rens, when Harold Meyers had to retire from the game. The second field goal was followed by another freak shot through the deflection of a pass by Sanders which struck Mechan's hands and bounced into the Makoha's hasket.
During this time Pappy Ricks flew around the court like a phantom, giving the greatest exhibition of all round playing we have ever seen him in, while "Fat" Jenkins was typifying an irresistible movable atom, boring through, breaking up plays of the visitors, and shooting field goals and fouls at every opportunity.
Capt. Slocum, Sanders, Mayers and Salth, who relieved Mayers for five minutes of the first half, all stood out unmovable, like the Rock of Gibraltar.
The first half ended 29 to 10 in favor of the Rens, and the Hakoahi's looked bewildered as they trooped wearily to their dressing room for the rest period.
In the second half the visitors, with determination plainly written on their faces, made a stern bid to cut down the large Renaissance lead, but found the champions just as determined and were matched point for point.
Banks got in three of his long shots, at which he has no equal. Holman managed to get one and the celebrated "Red" Sherr, who ran wild the night before against the Trenton American League team, could only secure one with the greatest of guards, Harold Mayers, against Jenkins who top score man of the evening with 18 points, and Ricks was just behind with 16. Banks for the vistors, with 9 points, led the Hakaoh quintet. The dents gathered 14 out of 22 foul shots, while the visitors got 13 out of 26. Jack Murray, well known sports writer and basketball official, referred the game, and the team to the New York newspapers as one of the best in the game went down to a crushing defeat without an alibi in the world.

WARREN STOPS TED JACKSON
New Jersey Battler No Match for Jack Dougherty's Man
Jack Warren, "Three-Fingered" fighter, Dacky Dougherty's claimant of the world's light-heavyweight crown, handed Ted Jackson, Bayoune, the second defender he has ever suffered in his short but brilliant ring career when he won Referee Masterly's decision over the South Hudsonite at the close of their ten-round contest at the Bayonne Boxing Club recently.
Warren, far more experienced and a better boxer than the Bayoune, fought this way into an early lead and relinquished his advantage. On the whole, he found his path to victory strewn with obstacles but never once was he in any real danger of being knocked down or hot shots tossed at him by Jackson.
The latter, considering his inferior knowledge of ring tactics, gave a mighty good account of himself and should become a bit more famous the next week if he puts lessons like last week's to good use.
Tuxedo Tigers Feasted on Alpha Phi Alpha Thursday
When J. Richard Lee and "Mars" Hill get their hends together it's just too bad for any team of basketball players. This proved to be true when the Alpha Phi Alpha team improved over to Jupiter and tried to run the Tuxedo Tigers out of their den in Orange, but the Tigers feasted on the New Yorkers to the tune of 35 to 30.
The game was hard-fought from start to finish. Geo. Gregory and main cog in the fraternity squad, Archer, Jordan, Work and Clark were the stars for the Jersey team. Next Monday night the Tuxedos will meet the Titan Bears on the field. This is always a tough game when the Bears and the Tigers meet.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1928
KID CHOCOLATE IS REAL GOODS
Showing After Being Knocked Down Wins More Followers to Cuban
There are dramatic moments in the roped arenu which have had a great deal to do with keeping the large following on which boxing are in this city, but there are few moments in the arena that are more mastic than that which brought a full house to its feet last Friday night at Madison Square Garden, when Kid Chocolate, one of the most popular little fighters that put on quite a mite, went down in the first round from a right flush on the jaw. It was Joe Scalfaro who administered the punch and added his share of pugilistic history. True, Chocolate was a fiery fires of race prejudice which smouldered white man even when he is at his best heard the call and the roar which went up carried with it the fire that black had at last found his master.
Strange. it was just the thing to win a host of added followers to the train of Chocolate, for when he got over the blow, he too would be added to Chocolate's long list of victories.
They cried to him to get in at the kill, but the little master from Cuba showed that he had the stuff and the exhibition which he gave the the kill a long time. The battle was a hectic one, from the knock down to the finish, with Chocolate's display of ring generalship a thing at which to marvel. All through the fight he was the target, the man though he has learned that he must watch himself every moment when he is in the ropes. When he fights again it will be another sell out. He should have been given the decision but, when the man will steady instead of hurt him.
CARLTON CUBS WIN
The Carlton "Y" 125-lb. basketball team, playing the Brooklyn and Queens "Y" League, won a decisive victory over Bay Ridge to the tune of 27-12 at the Carleton boys took some time to get started, but when they did Bay Ridge was out of the picture. Frequent shifting of players in order to find a good combination of offense and defense is the fact that Carlton has some stiff competition ahead. Miller, Warner, Smith, Williams, D. Smith and Holland played exceptionally well together. Holland regularly center and left, but it was unable to take weight, but it is hoped that he will to so by Dec. 3.
JACK McVEY TO MEET FORGIONE
Bruce Flowers Also on Madison Square Garden Card in Near Future
Whether it was a short right to the midsection, the effects of some telling upcurrents, or a lightning bolt of psychological moment remains a question among the fans who witnessed the dropping to the canvas of Jack Bernstein last Saturday at the Bristol Flories in the star bout at the Olympia last Saturday night.
The dramatic finish to the bout came in the sixth round after Flowers won five stifens, which proved not only the cleverness of Bernstein, who held the junior lightweight title at one time, but the great improvement was a biting of art.
It was an exhibition of the plastic art seldom seen even in this neck of the woods, albeit the customers like to see blood and see it as some as possible. Flowers had the edge to win, but the customers would have won the decision, as he took things easy and did not open up in his usual whirlwind style. That Bruce would have smothered Bernstein was evident and he had barely commenced his campaign. He would have flowers will meet Eddie Guida or Jimmie Goodrich at the garden soon.
McVey Meeting Forgoine
Jack McVey, old popular cam-paigner whom the customers want to see at the Olympia again, will meet, accept recognition and the HudgheyDeVos match at Madison Square Garden. McVey has had more decisions taken away from him than any other colored fighter and but for the stoutness he would have been discouraged long ago. On the same card, Gorilla Jones will hook up with Tony Vaccarello. Tony was picked by his old buddy Johnny Dundee to succeed the latter, but not the good fighter, he has long since failed to impress the Tans an championship calibre.
The Blue Bird Girls basketball team added another victory to their list of winners last Tuesday night, Girls of Paterson N.J. held a liberty of 24 to 8. The game was played in the Blue Bird Girls' game at the Bennett Presbyterian Church before a crowd of thousands of fans. The team looked nifty in their new uniforms.
Collegiates Defeat Panthers In Grid Tussle Thursday
On Thanksgiving Day at Orange,
N. J. East Orange Collegiate's football team defeated the Panthers of
Princeton, N. J. 7-0. The short and snappy plunges of Coleman, Alexander and Clark and Collegiate that were not spectacular, but which cut into the Panthers' territory, Harry Clark, the sixteen-year-old quarterback of the Collegiate, and his brother, Pinky, Morgan College star, were puzzles to their opponents. The lineup:
HARRY SMITH K.O.'S FELDMAN
HARRY SMITH K.O.'S FELDMAN
Matched to Meet Willie Feister at the Garden on December 21
Two Saturday nights ago the fans drawn to the Olympia Sport Club in Harlem saw Harry Smith in action against George Doesher, and while Harry won the decision, George had made Harry look so bad the boys did not rave over him. Doesher's style made Harry look too tough when against him, and the fact that he carried more than twenty pounds against the colored fighter had a huge impact, and his stunts leftuffs when they got started. But those who know just what Smith can do lost no confidence in him and last Friday, night he more than once knocked out Willie Feldman in the third round. It was a packed house that saw the colored Harlemite in the court yard, and he leave with the fans, Tom McAuld, machmacher at Madison Squarra Garden, reached right out and signer Harry up the next day to Harry Felster in the garden on Dec. 21.
Smith's victory over Feldman brought him right up among the best in the game, and they think well of his ability is also shown by the fact that his manager, Dave Brown, has been kept busy signing him up. On Jan. 16, Harry Smith was the best in the game in the person of Harry Ebbett. Ebbett, is being touted as the best man in the division and, if Smith should win, he will be justified posting a forfeit to meet the champion of the class. Of course, Dave Brown is firmly convinced that in Smith he is the best, and he is leaving, no stone unturned to impress the same thing on the fight club managers who must, to some extent at least, share his opinion. But Tom McArdle it did not take him long to sign for the Feister fight.
Elias Jenkins Again Hangs K. O. on His Man
Ellas Jenkins, of the Astoria Knights of Columbus, added another name to his long string of knockout victims last Friday night in the pool. Four of them was of the features of the semi-monthly amateur boxing tournament held at the Astoria Knights of Columbus club house, before 1,000 persons.
The bout no sooner had got under way when Jenkins forced Phil Reno of the Key City Club, of Bayonne, to the ropes, and with a furry of lefts and rights sent him down to the canvas in a hemp. He time was 14:25 seconds of the first 152-Pound Class.

BUFFALOES TURN BACK 'MACHINE'
Teams Evenly Matched and Showed It in First Ten Minutes
The original Buffalooes defeated the St. Christopher red and black machine 28-22 at Rockland Palace Thanksgiving matinee. About 300 fans witnessed this fast and furious game.
The teams were so evenly matched and each man so closely guarded that the quintets failed to score during the first ten minutes of the fray. The Buffaloes led 10-8 at the end of the first half.
In the second half the teams were four minutes apart. The machine trailed 12-22. When the game had thirteen minutes to go St. Christopher made the following substitutions: Hill for Sea, Murphy for Sea.
W. Carter gave a splendid exhibition of court generalship and accurate shooting for the Buffaloes. Silas Hain was over outstanding individual performers on the visitors stood out even in defeat. The line-up and score:

Laloch and Francis were the shining lights for the home team "Spill" and J. Gaynor stood out for the visitors. Referee, Teddy Briggs. Time of halves, 20 minutes.
Boys' Club Win
The Boys' Club of St. Mark's M. E. Church won another thrilling game from the Sagamore A. C. last Saturday night on the St. Mark's Court, by the score of 19:14. The Sagamores, who have beaten some of the best amateur teams in Harlem, one of which was the Y. M. D. 's of 135th Street Y. M. C. A. played hard and fast, but the Boys' Club quietet were too much for them. At half-time the Sagamores were leading to the tune of 9:4, but the Boys' Club rallied in the second half and won by the score of 19:14. The game was a thriller and kept a record crowd on its toes from beginning to end. Clifford Landrum, the Galloping Ghost, and John Smith were the outstanding stars for Boys' Club and Lambert and Earle were the outstanding players for the Sagamores.

Commandeurs All Set for Philadelphia Flashes
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 3.—One of the season's best basketball games is expected Friday night when the Original Philadelphia Flashes, with what is regarded as the strongest line-up in the team's history, meet the Commandeurs at the Walt Disney World. The Commandeurs had been regarded as invincible up until a short while ago, but a 23 to 16 defeat slipped over on them by the Flashes in a clean slate. There is no denying the fact, however, that the Commandeurs are stacking up against the hardest teams in the country, and there are many who expect to win victories before the season is over. The game next Friday has the boys in the game itself more interested than the ordinary fan, although the ordinary fan is fighting the battle. The Flashes will line up with Davis and Jones; forwards; J. D. Shields, center; Lonnie Shields and Dick Claxton guards. Commandeurs will line up with Hank Gorges and Chick Edwards; forwards; Burnett, center; Budd and John Edwards, guards.
Defenders Take Another
On Sunday afternoon, December 2, the Defender Girls travelled to Brooklyn to meet and again defeat the speedy St. Lucy's Girls. This game was consigned to the All-Star girls games. The splendid guard work of Vlaja Jackson and Estelle Richardson, also Pivot-Player (Capt.) Helen Steele, caused much comment among the spectators. The proud work of the fast forwards, Sarn Pollard and Helen Mayo, proved too much for their opponents. Irene Robinson played the second half with determination. First half of game was 8-3, favoring the All-Star score, 24-13, favoring Defenders.

King, a newcomer to the team, remonstrated with his skill as a phaser. Pivoting, shifting and exceptional shooting games for King a lot of praise. He scored 11 points. J. Oliver, one of the first players to play half and played his usual hat-rails, ing type of game.
Our Paris Correspondent Gives Full Account of Brown-Cuthbert Fight
Record Crowd at French Capital Sees Al. Brown, Holder of National Boxing Association Bantamweight Title, in Action
ALL AGREE DECISION WAS JUST ONE
Record Prices Charged and Nobility Sat In at What Is Conceded to Have Been the Biggest Sporting Event of Its Kind at the Velodrome
PARIS.—Before a record crowd at the Velodrome d'Hiver Friday night and with one exception the highest prices ever charged in the history of the French ring, Al. Brown, bantamweight champion of the world, met Johnny Cuthbert, former featherweight champion of England. It is the first time that an American holding a world championship has fought in a Paris prize ring since Jack Johnson fought here for enough to pay his board bill. Johnson was at the time heavyweight champion and an exile.
The fight ended in a draw, and most of the experts at the ringside as well as the sports writers of the dailies, French, American and English, seem to agree that the decision was a just one. Brown was credited with having a shade the best of the first six rounds, and Cuthbert the same with the last six.
A part of the crowd though otherwise, and howled its disapproval of the decision, while the rest cheered the decision of the referee, M. Henri Bernstein.
Brown came into the ring in an elegant dressing gown of skyblue silk with silver tassels, leaping in with the litheness of a black panther, while Cuthbert entered rather timidly, dressed in a dark brown robe, resembling a soldier's overcoat.
With their robes off Cuthbert was revealed as the more muscular and the stockier of the two, with Brown the more graceful and more slewny figure. Cuthbert has the advantage of weight, being three and a quarter pounds heavier than Brown, who weighed 121 pounds.
A few formalities, the bell rings, and the fight begins. Sparrings, attack, retreat, and Brown lands a hard right to the jaw that stagers his opponent, who soon rallies with a lead to Brown's body. Brown lands his left to the foot, but only Cuthbert goes to the floor, and Brown and Cuthbert are together. As he rfises Brown lands another left to the chin, and Cuthbert replies with a right to the body, followed by two swings, which misses the right with two blows, and the stomach is left to the ear, and another in the face.
with a right to the jaw, followed by three left to the body. A period of clinching and Cuthbert sent in a hard right to the stomach, two left to the jaw, and then went at it with both hands, Brown, however, got even by reaching Cuthbert to head and stomach frequently in the eighth round.
The tenth round was Cuthbert's. One of his lefts started a flow of claret from Brown's left eye that bothered him considerably during
In the second round Brown again proves the aggressor, landing a left to his opponent's chin, who replies with a right. The chin, chinch, there is in-fighting, and soon as they break away each lands a left to the jaw. Brown follows this up with another hard left to the jaw, but Cuthbert replies with one the body and three lefts to the jaw.
In the third round Brown again leads the fight and lands a left to the chin. Most of the round ends with a right. The crowd yells and whistles at the delay. "Go on, Snowball," it yells at Brown. A voice from the gallery shouts at the Englishman: "Hey, my lord, what's the matter with you? Did you leave it at the check room?"
Brown again leads out in the next round, but again there is nothing more fighting. Brown in his victory trunks dances around the Englishman, takes aim, and lands a hard right to head, following with his left hand low and when they break away Brown again darts blow after blow at the Briton's stomach, which seems to be his chief objective, but Brown lands a right and a left in quick succession, he forces Cuthbert to the ropes, and it seems as if he is about to do something exciting when the ball rings. The sixth round Brown's left hand finds its way often to the stomach, but the smiling Cuthbert takes his revenge by landing three lefts. The seventh round Cuthbert look the offensive and shook Brown

with a right to the jaw, followed by three lefts to the body. A period of clinching and Cuthbert sent in a hard right to the stomach, two lefts to the jaw, and then went at it with even brown. Brown, however, got by each clinching to hand and stomach frequently in the eighth round.
The tenth round was Cuthbert's. One of his lefts started a flow of claret from Brown's left eye that bothered him considerably during the remainder of the fight, and made him give a slight shade the better of the following round. In the last round both strove hard to do that: which the crowd was eager to see: one of the bodies stretched inanimate on the ground, and with both men finishing strong and on their feet.
The prices paid for ringside suits were 300 francs ($12) which, as was said, is the highest price charged in the history of the French ring-l候 many members of the British nobility were over for the occasion, and sportdom was out in all its force.
All in all the affair is a creditable one for Brown, as he entered the ring under a decided handicap, for weight means as much to a boxer as it does to a racehorse. Cuthbert is a first-class featherweight, and one of the cleverest point fighters in Europe, with several knockouts to his credit. Brown entered the ring a favorite and it was confidently predicted that he would win in the first six rounds. One of the French sporting writers, C. A. Gonnet, writing in L'Intransigeant, call the match "Al Brown's number." Had Cuthbert been a bantamweight himself there might have been a different story to tell.

British Consul Among Many Expected at Tribute to Licorish
Final plans and arrangements have been completed for the civic ball and reception to be held in honor of Llonel O. Liorish, the 23-year-old hero of the S.S. Vestris disaster, at Rockland Palace, 15th street and Eighth avenue, Thursday evening, December 6. This is the first of a series of civic receptions and halls that will be tendered Liorish in about fifteen of the major cities. Mayor Walker is to present the New York City Medal to Liorish, inasmuch as it was not ready for presentation at the official City Hall reception last week.
A large committee, composed of leading representative New Yorkers, will greet this young hero next Thursday evening. Alderman Fred R. Moore, James Weldon Johnson, James Whole, the N.A. A. C. P., Assst. U. S. Attorney General Delany, George W. Harris, Rev. E. Elliot Durant, Rev. Dr. C. V. Hayes, Rev. Cullen, Rev. Clayton Powell, Rev. Lloyd Imes, J. W. Moses, Clarence Blowlow and number of others who attended the lecture. Every effort has been made to bring out a representative audience.
Congressman Royal H. Weller wired unless Congressional duties kept him in Washington he would be present. Congressman Weller is briefed by the House a bill to award decorish the Congressional Medal of Honor.
U. S. District Attorney Tuttle and several members of his stuff have signified their intentions or attending. Tuttle conducted the Vestris inquiry in an admirable manner and interested in the heroic conduct of Iroquish and the colored crew in general.
Senator Nathan Straus, whose father, Nathan Straus Sr., headed the $20,000 fund for Licorish, will be present, Mr. Straus Sr., now 52 years old, will extremely interested Licorish, himself interested to do more than support him in raising the endowment fund. It was because of Licorish that Mr. Straus journeyed to the City Hall reception last week and brought out a remark from Mayor Walker on the situation.
Supplementing the civic reception program, John Smith's Orchestra will supply the dance music.
A host of Broadway theatrical stars have lent their services for this celebration. Vincent Lozge and his band, George Dewey Washling, the Sunshine Sammy, Little Joey and Charlie, Rose's Midgets, Craddock and Shadney and Leonard Harper's revue. Frank Fcry will be master of ceremonies.
Sir Harry G. Armstrong, British Consul-General, is expected, with his Consul staff, late in the evening.
Approximately 5,000 are expected to pay tribute to this modest hero who, without question of race, creed or color, rescued twenty people from almost certain death when the S. S. V. Crusader Licorish goes to Boston for the week of December 8, and then on a fifteen-week tour.

Pittsburgh Baritone Returns for Debut
PARIS.
After nearly two years of study in Italy and France, Ralph Banks, haritone, of Pittsburgh, Pa., has rehearsed as a concert artist. He will spend two months there, after which time he will return to Paris to fill two concerts and one symphony engagement. He also has engagements to sing in London, Berlin, Vienna and Budapest, in which last named city he will make his operatic debut in "La Boheme." Mr. Banks has been spoken of highly by some of the leading European maestros, among them being the composer Titta Ruffo, haritone of the Metropolitan Opera Company of New York.
He will differ from most of the other Negro singers in that spirituals will not be included in his repertoire. "They are very, very beautiful," he said, "but I do not know them. Those with whom I have studied do not know them. Besides, there is an increased tendency on the part of the white public to segregate the Negro singer to singing of spirituals, and I wish no limit to be placed on my attempts. I wish well to those who sing them, but as for me, I am going to take a different departure by not singing them, which, by the way, might make it more difficult for me." Mr. Banks' address within America will be International House, 500 Riverside drive, New York City.

Machine and Related Trades.
In point of history the smith, with his brawny arms as strong as iron bands, was the first of mechanics. In ancient times he made all the implements of agriculture, of transportation, of the home (including musical instruments), of war, of sale manufacture of tools, sole manufacture of all articles in which metal was wholly or partly used.
How simple was the life of the person who practiced the trade, whose being complex, were his duties. Now, all has been changed and scores of tradesmen have divided among themselves the complex of merchandise imported from the simple smith of old.
Leaving out the many variations of the mechanical trades as found among themselves the manufacturing plants, let us survey the following general scheme of work of the leading machine and allied trades: Blacksmith.
And smith shoes horses; sells and repairs wagons, sleights and farm implements; and repairs tools, machines, etc.
Machine-Shop Tradesmen.
1. A machinist makes, assembles and repairs tools, implements and machines.
2. A draftsman plans the details of the tool, machine or implement be made, or paper maps, drawing drawings of the desired mechanism. He also furnishes full measurements, etc.
3. A designer is an expert draftsman whose work is to solve in detail difficult or intricate problems of the planning, design, and construction of new machines. He then makes working drawings of the mechanisms designed for the use of the other workmen.
4. A patternmaker constructs woodworking machines of tool or machine parts, from which a moulder makes metal castings.
5. A steam engineer is a mechanic who takes care of the running and ordinary repairing steam engine and boiler in a factory. He also has charge of the heating systems.
6. The automobile mechanic cleans, cares for, adjusts and repairs automobiles, tractors and trucks.
7. For this brief resume, I shall try next week to elaborate on one or more phases of this trade by delving deep into the possibilities of the several branches of the field. Does not suffice be glad to discusse of vocations with at my office in the Y. M. C. A., 181 West 135th street.

Questions concerning major tripe and routes will be addressed accompanied by a self-addressed and stamped envelope.
One of Main Causes of Accidents.
A large percentage of the accidents that occur during the two months of the year and follow Christmas are due, more or less, to the impaired vision. Water will freeze upon the windshields and the other glasses of the car and thereby produce distorted vision, which is very dangerous. The external side of the windshield and other glasses rain will often freeze as fast as it makes contact when the temperature is about the freezing point. Measure that the exhalation of the occupants of the automobile will form a coating of frost on the inside of the glass.
This bad vision that the driver experience is greatly to the discontent by the danger of the operator. The most effective manner to combat this menace is to use an anti-freeze solution that will have the desired effect, and at the same time not ruin the paint and varnish of the automobile.
The frost that is formed on the inside of the automobile may be overcome by placing a heater on the automobile, or it will then before it has a chance to become a harmful factor.
As for the outside, where the heater does not have any effect, an anti-freeze solution must be used on the glasses thoroughly and dry them.
Saturate a clean rag with glycerine and apply it to the glasses which strokes that are panes with the ground, the windshield and other glasses thoroughly with the glycerine and then permit them to dry. Apply a second coat to the panes of glass and after that, no annoyance from rain from the windshield and other glasses should

MOST loquacious people seem to be ignorant of the experiences of their listeners. To relate one's immediate experience may or may not be of interest to others; and it is surely, only the wise person who knows, when to talk about himself.
Nothing is more undesirable than one who monopolisizes the whole conversation and talks about nothing. Too many people are disposed to believe that to excel in conversation they must hold their audience with a certain sense of humor. In the other hand, people who possess real wisdom and who are willing to refrain from indulging in conversation and voicing opinions on topics concerning things which they are not thoroughly posted on, usually reserve their remarks. They will talk, however, on subjects they know something of or on which may be a question of authority. When you can do this, you have taken a big stride toward mastery of conversation.

Whispering in company is a serious breach of etiquette. If a topic is too singular to discuss openly, it should be reserved to a time when the parties concerned may be brought into privacy for the discussion. A common mistake is for one person to say to another in the presence of a social group "I have something to tell you about a certain party when we are alone." This sort of notice is not only embarrassing to the party spoken to, but it starts other members of the group in deriding them. They even think the remark is a hint for them to vacate.
Flattery and deception are so much in evidence these days that it is very difficult to recognize the truth of expressions or the depth of sincerity. Then, there is the inquisitive kind of person who thrives on information about other people's business. You know the type who

New things and plans are not well favored. This can be a very good year. The bi-year begins a bi-yearday that promises success in business and employment, especially if old plans are carried out. This will be a particularly good year for new ideas and plans, owing to the approaching conjunction of Saturn and the Sun. Romance is not well favored. Financial expense is so severe. The birthyear for December 7 will bring many unusual events that will try the patience of today's people. They will be their own worst enemies unless they can use patience and the very best judgment. Changes and removals will not turn out well. Some connections will be indicated. Much waiting is indicated.
December 8 begins a birthyear that will bring some small annoyances and worries. The tendency to speculate will not bring gain. Mental development and employment are well favored. Family affairs will cause some worry. The birthyear for December 9 promises some procrastinate and social development that will bring happiness. Many will feel some unnatural mental development through public associations. The digestive system should not be abused with hurried eating or impure foods and drink, as the effect will last a lifetime. The birthyear for December 10 promises some gain through artistic affairs, some gain through journeys, an inclination to sudden upsets and anxiety and a need for patience in the very best judgment. Some deception and much financial expense are indicated. Lock of consideration for others will bring loss. The health and diet should be guarded. Old things are best.

asks "Who, what, when, why" about your personal affairs and considers it an insult if you refuse to give the information. Another person who is problematical is that awful fabricator.
Some people are habitual price quoters; everything they have ever purchased has been broadcast as costing a most unusual sum—that is, when the article leaves the store the last few days, raised above the actual cost. There are very few things that the moderate salaried person buys that can't be bought by his neighbor with more or less effort. As for quality of materials, there was a time when nobody but merchants, dealers and a few very wealthy people really know the kag, now the general public has been so enlightened through advertisements, catalogs, posters, signboards, price lists, literature and tags pasted on the articles themselves, that it makes one appear a bit uncivil when he insists upon informing you about the cost of his ware in over-exaggerated terms, keen that merchants and dealers make it a duty to advertise openly their prices.
By all means remember an interesting talker/usually makes for popularity when he talks about something that is worthwhile. In short, he finds himself surrounded with listeners. On the other hand, when he talks about himself or giftspeaks about his friends, he falls both to get the confidence of his friends and to establish true friendship among his acquaintances.
Fairs will bring sadness. Loss of the things that are held most dear ill just about discourage those he have not faith to hope. He will be some chance help in time of need. Querrils will only bring bitterness and unhappiness. Old plans and ideas are best.
All the birthdays in this group will feel the restricting influence of the approaching conjunction of the Sun with Saturn. This aspect does not favor the health or new plans and ideas.

The Nazarene Church
"Mahmoud dwells in white and black the same, and heroism knows no color line." said Dr. Proctor in his sermon Sunday morning when he spit on the heroeship of Jesus. "Our city has in it black and white, black-and-black, black-Lindbergh, the hero of the air, and Liederh, the hero of the sea. And Mayor Walker has shown himself heroe in giving the same recognition to both. It is this spirit that runs like a silver cord through the history of our country, white and black workmen, black and white spirit that will bind this city of many races into one great racial unity."

Bishop Johnson's Death Lamented
A. M. E. Prelate Believed to Have Been in Good Health
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Dec. 5. (A.
N. P.)—The sudden death of Bishop
J. Albert Johnson of the African
Methodist Episcopal Church, at his
home, 1412 North 13th street, this
city, recently, was a distinct shock
to the religious world, with which
he had been identified for more than
half a century. Bishop Johnson had
been in perfect health, having just a
day or two who addressed a big Masonic
meeting in Brooklyn, New York.
The son of John Albert and Mary
Mackey, J. Albert Johnson was born
in Oakville, Ontario, Canada, in the
fall of 1857. He was educated in the
schools of his home town, at the
University of Toronto, from which he
received the degree of M. D. He also
studied at Oxford University in Engla-
land and the University of Pennsylvania
Dinny School, from which he
was graduated in 1894.
Bishop Johnson traveled extensively, both in this country and abroad, having held important pastorates in the leading churches of his denomination. He did missionary work in British Guiana and was ordained first bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Norfolk, Va., in 1908. He at one time was pastor of the celebrated Metropolitan A. M. E. Church in Washington, D. C.
Bishop Johnson was noted for his pulpit eloquence and as a public speaker he had few equals. Crowds were attracted by his ready wit. He was a man of pleasing address and was active in educational and religious work. Great success always marked the churches over which he presided and as Bishop he looked after affairs in a most efficient manner.

I was thin and tired felt all the time. I did not feel like going places. Life wasn't much pleasure. "I spoke to my mother-in-law about my condition. She told me that Cardui had done much for her. I sent for Carrie right away; kept on going and a doctor I felt stronger. I took on more weight, ate more, rested nights, and did not have the weak spells. I took 6 bottles in all.

Daily Newspaper Ethics
"I HAVE SEEN in one or two quarters some days ago some criticism of the colored members of the crew; and I think it only fair to say that, so far as I know or have any information, the testimony just given by Mr. Joseph Boxhill today is typical of the conduct of the colored part of the crew. Not only does the evidence indicate that they showed no insubordination or cowardice, but, on the contrary, the evidence shows affirmatively that they obeyed orders and stayed in the stoke hold as long as anything could be done, and that subsequently—and I know this will be further emphasized by the evidence—the colored members of the crew displayed real heroism in dragging people from the water into the lifeboats and in supporting helpless persons while in the water. I think it is only fair that this statement should be made at this time."
THIS COMMENT on the wreck of the Vestris was made by Mr. Charles H. Tuttle, the United States Attorney in the Court of Inquiry concerning the Vestris. He made it at the close of the testimony of Joseph Boxhill, one of the firemen on the Vestris.
THE PUBLIC would like to know why the remarks of Mr. Tuttle were not displayed as prominently in the white press as were the first accusations of cowardice against the colored crew. Plenty of space was given to every hysterical passenger who had something to say against the crew; space was given to those who appealed to shipowners to discontinue the employment of Negroes on ocean liners. But when the charges were disproved and the Negroes turned out to be heroes instead of cowards the white press did nothing to vindicate the men whom it had injured.
THE SAME THING HAPPENED in the murder of Dr. Liliendahl a year ago in New Jersey. The press announced in big headlines that two Negroes had killed the doctor when he attempted to defend his wife from their assault, and a wave of anti-Negro sentiment was started. When it was proved that Negroes had nothing to do with the crime and that it was committed by the doctor's wife and her paramur, the white press said nothing to undo the wrong it had done to innocent people.
THE WHITE PRESS is always busy decrying the ethics and morals of politicians, policemen and business men; but it seems never to have time to straighten out the ethics of the press.

A SERIES OF MENTAL TESTS of Negroes, whites and mixed bloods was made recently by Dr. C. B. Davenport of the Department of Genetics, Carnegie Institute, Washington. The result was reported at the sessions of the National Academy of Sciences, held at Schenectady Nov. 21. Dr. Davenport concluded: "We are driven to the conclusion that there is a constitutional, hereditary, genetical basis for the differences between the two races in mental tests."
ACCORDING TO THE DOCTOR'S REPORT individuals of the two races of the same social and intellectual levels were given tests for mental aptitude in a number of different fields. The whites showed a very definite superiority in sizing up situations and reasoning them out. In memory tests, which required less thought, the Negroes were superior. In the music test the whites were superior in a sense of harmony, but in the more elementary matters of pitch and rhythm the Negroes were more acute.
A MAN CAN REACH any conclusion and prove anything if he is allowed to choose his own premises. "The moon will turn to butter if you churn it" is a perfectly logical conclusion if everyone accepts the premise that the moon is made of milk. For three hundred years the slaveholders did everything they could to kill the Negro's combining and reasoning power. Dr. Davenport leaves this entirely cut of consideration, and starts with the premise that the two races had equal opportunities for developing their reasoning power. Then, because the people in his tests show a difference in reasoning, he concludes that this difference is natural.
SCIENCE IS VERY IMPRESSIVE—when it is science. Scholars do wonderful work in astronomy, geology, chemistry and other fields because they have nothing in mind but science. But when they enter the field of anthropology, the study of mankind, they are apt to lose their impartial viewpoint and debase science to the uses of propaganda. In America especially, instead of trying to find out the real truth about races, they try to discover something that will prove one race superior to another. It is very significant that in all their studies, researches and excavations they never discover anything creditable to the Negro. Dr. Davenport's laborious investigation proves exactly nothing.

FORMER MAYOR JOHN F. HYLAN has announced that he will be an independent candidate for Mayor next year. He is backed by the Better City Government League, which claims a membership of 60,000. His platform, in brief, proposes to "take control of the city government out of the hands of professional politicians and restore it to the people." THERE HAVE BEEN better Mayors of New York City than John F. Hylan; his enemies say that all the other Mayors were better. But with the exception of William J. Gavnor no Mayor in the past forty years has enjoyed more of the

trust, confidence and affection of the people than John F. Hylan. The paners derided him, the intellectuals sneered at him, the financiers called him plain dumb. But, somehow, the great mass of people believed in him, they felt that he had their cause at heart. To them he was "the sage of Bushwick."
THAT WAS BECAUSE he was fair to everybody, to Negroes and all other elements of the city's population. This accounts for his large following after being cut of office for four years. In breed democracy, in the real essence of Americanism, John F. Hylan was far from being the worst Mayor New York has ever had.
THE election is now over.
A good man has been chosen to the chief magistracy. The people are settling down into their accustomed ways and means of livelihood. Much feeling and animosity were aroused during the campaign. Hatred and bigotry ran riot.
Same one-sided partisans affected to believe that the welfare of the country depended upon the outcome of the election. Sober judgment, however, would have convinced all but the hopelessly thoughtless that America is too big and great to be seriously affected by whoever happens to be elected president. Any candidate whom the majority of the electorate votes for, will safely be the victor of the shift of state. As a matter of fact, party symbols have no longer may deep significance.
We must devote attention to the actual problems now confronting us.
The heads of state agricultural and mechanical colleges met in Washington and called attention to the almost forgotten cry that the Negro's great field is on the farm. For the past decade we have been carried away with the hard push and the North migration. The job has come to take a new appraisal of the conditions now pressing upon us. The great bulk of the race is still in the South on the farms. This sustaining branch of human

That for Late Hubert Harrison Memorial Still Short of $600. To the Editor of The Amsterdam News. Dear Sir:
December 17 will be the first anniversary of the death of Dr. Hubert Harrison. On Sunday evening, Dec. 16, the Hubert Harrison Memorial Church will commemorate the day by holding a special in memorial service.
The Harrison Memorial Committee, of which I am secretary, desires to bring to mind the close on that evening and to this the art it appeals to all the intellectual beneficiaries and friends of Dr. Harrison to send to me before Dec. 16 their contribution to the $600 Memorial Fund being raised for the three specific purposes already announced.
Larfe contributions will, of course, he accepted, but it would be a splendid mark of appreciation if say 250 of the students of Dr. Harrison's outdoor university will at once send me a contribution of one dollar each. Let there be no delay.
Checks should be made payable to the Harrison Memorial Committee, in whose name an account has been opened in the Chelsea Exchange Bank.

Library Notes
There was so much interest in the exhibit of paintings and etchings by Albert Smith in the Negro Division of the West 135th street branch of the Public Library during October and November, and there have been so many requests for an extension of the exhibit through December, that through the courtesy of Mr. Smith's father it has been extended for one month. There were 1,100 visitors during these two months. The division is open between 1 and 9 p.m.
Some of the recent books added in the Negro Division are these: "Coming of the Lord," another novel of South Africa, by S. G. Millin; "American Negro Folkongs," N. L. White; "The Native Problem in Africa," R. L. Buell; "Bibliography of the Negro in Africa and America," N. W. Work; "Last of Free African," McCraghen; "Johnown's Book," Bouet; "The African Slaves" by Malcolm Cawley, a new edition of an old book published in 1854; "With Malice Toward None," the second book of the series of which "Forever Free" was the first, on the administration of Abraham Lincoln, by H. Willis.

UNLAWFUL ENTRY
May Be Made by Officers of the Law as Well as by Others.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Some of the *citizens of Brooklyn* have of late found themselves in a very tragical situation—and all at the hands of the law!
An officer of the law entered a man's home and picked up a piece of paper. He blankly refused to let the man see what he claimed to be a policy slip. In order to avoid spending ninety days in the workhouse, and even after going through much expense, the man was forced to be fingerprinted. It so happens that the fingerprints of the occupants of the apartment were found in the slip, so the case was dismissed.
We surely believe that lottery, as well as all kinds of gambling and illegal businesses, should feel the strong hand of the law, but when we have positive proof of an officer entering an innocent man's

One Year Ago
Representative George Holden Tinkham, Republican of Massachusetts, made a plea for the reapportionment of Congress on the grounds that the South now has more representation than in the days of slavery, when it was allowed to count the white population and three fifths of the slaves.
Marcus Garvey was bound for Jamaica on a deportation order signed after his release from Federal prison.
The Republican party is dominated by the Ku Klux Klan, declared James Welion Johnson of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in an address at Gary, Indiana, where school patrons were fighting segregation of their children.
Praise for the worthy spirit shown by the Negro workers and a plan for his fair treatment featured the message of Secretary of Labor Davis to Congress.

race should be chiefly concerned with the remedies to cure the ills of the farmer as they will be thrashed out during the incoming administration. If the farmer should sit and wait for the government to volunteer measures of relief, he would wait till the day of doom. The government helps those who help themselves, the farmers, through manpower, harassed on the steps of Congress and beat at the door of the White House until the powers that be will be compelled to heed their cry by virtue of its very loudness.
The race must formulate its own demands and push them up on the government with all of the power of persuasion and protest that it can command. It was highly commendable in the late W. C. Matthews, who headed the Negro Jim-Crow committee under Mr. Coolidge, as Dr. John R. Hawkins did under Mr. Hoover, to formulate fourteen points of request and demand upon the administration which the forces under his leadership had added into power. Only, Mr. Matthews did not follow up his program with any effective endeavour and persistence that did not constitute the race's strong strength behind his program. Let us hope that Mr. Hawkins will have better luck.
But the program of race advantage must not be limited to more appetitive positions, important as these are. It must also include wider issues. I see that the Civil Service Commission is at just considering the proposition

of adopting finger prints instead of photographs as a means of identifying applicants in the Civil service examinations. I made this suggestion to the commission three years ago, which, at that time, the commission gave good offsetting reasons for rejecting. Mr. Hawkins, by virtue of his leadership, the commission, already becomes the spokesman of the race so far as purely Republican measures are concerned. But it must always be understood that no man or set of men has a monopoly of right to appeal to the President or to the government in behalf of the race. All individuals, agencies and organizations ought to be willing to stand back of Mr. Hawkins so long as he presents an annual report to the President and to Congress and ovines the courage and selflessness to push them to successful conclusion.
He is certainly entitled to a fair chance to be the race's champion. He must stand, however, upright and down straight, not merely for favors of appointment, but for the enforcement of the Negro rights, for fair administration of governmental affairs wherever they touch the Negro's welfare, and for remedial measures and affirmative legislation wherever they may seem necessary. If he will do this, the race will hall him as leader and spokesman, not because he was hand-picked to start the campaign, but he will become the accepted representative of the people whom he serves.

Like children that are too tame and too obedient, they do not seem to add anything to the household. And at times we are almost tempted to wish for the return of the old-time dangerous breed of kings, like Henry VIII of England, or Wilson I of the United States.
But perhaps, after all, these domesticated kings may be useful as space-killers. They keep down the expensiveness of "elections." We do not pay our presidents so much, but we pay so much to get them, so if the initial cost of these presidents the burden.

IN THE past decade much has been done by the medical profession, research workers and other agencies by way of investigations and dissemination of facts about cancer. The reason and need for this intensive work can readily be determined from the following statistical figures:

BOOKS dealing with the Negro are pouring in upon us this autumn. Formerly, such books would have been
chiefly sociological in character. We would have read for 300 or 400 pages of the Negro in his relation to America, of the basis for the supremacy of the white man, of the defects of Negro character; or the argument would have concerned itself with the injustice of the white and the extraordinary achievements of the black race. Today such writing has almost disappeared. Instead, the propagandist turns to fiction, and under this guise gets over his ideas regarding race.
After 40, 1 out of every 9 deaths is from cancer.
After 40, 1 out of every 7 deaths in women is from cancer.
After 40, 1 out of every 10 deaths in the male is from cancer.
Between 35 and 45, $2\frac{1}{2}$ times as many women as men die from cancer.
In the United States the death rate for cancer rose from 63 per 100,000 in 1900 to 91.9 in 1924.
In New York City in 1924 there were 6,557 deaths from cancer and in 1925 there were 6,787.
These figures show the United States to have the highest cancer death rate, and that this rate is increasing yearly. This increase is out of proportion to the increase which may be accounted for by improved diagnostic methods, so that there are factors having to do with the rise of which we know very little. It has been observed that the incidence of the disease increases with civilization and that the condition is hardly known among the aborigines.
Cancer is on the increase among the colored population, but not in the same proportion as among the whites. Johns Hopkins Hospital reports that cancer times as common in the white females as in the colored patients in that hospital, but that bifid tumors more common in the women of our group. The fact that $2\frac{1}{2}$ times more women die from cancer, between 35 and 45, is due to cancer of the breast and womb.
The average person has many false ideas about cancer and for this reason I might state some known facts. Cancer is a lawless increase of groups of cells of tissues of the body, i.e. cells of the skin, cells of the skin, cells making up the breast and womb will produce

Esther Hyman, however, is not a propagandist. She has chosen Negro material because she finds it interesting. She tells the story of Lucea, a West Indian girl of mixed parentage. Her heroine begins life in Jamaica, and white a young woman she goes to London. She seeks London as a refuge, a land of freedom, not neither in London nor Jamaica can she escape the color line. She is beautiful, intelligent. White men like her, sometimes fall in love with her, but they do not offer her marriage.
One familiar with the West Indies has often seen this bronze Lucea, lovely, graceful, dancing at the hotel with some young Englishman, not of the demi-monde but also not quite in the middle of the act of dancing. The tragedy of her position especially appeals to the white looker-on. She is so evidently between two worlds.
In England Luceen finds comfort in a time, and rejoices in what she feels to be her freedom. But the man who loves her declares that they can have no children, and she, seeing his revolt against her color, becomes his mistress, not his wife. She is tempted to join the class of prostitutes, but her fastidiousness holds her back. It is not her moral sense that keeps Luceen from dropping into "the pit of bestiality," she does not care about the law given by God and sanctioned by man, but she eyes. Even when she gives Rochester, but she she does care about her own good taste, her own sense of the fitness of things—so, she renounces the purely sexual life!
The novel in its central theme reminds one of Nella Larsen's "Quick sand." Both deal with the militato. Both send their heroes abroad, the one to London, the other to Copenhagen; and both heroes are impelled to return to their own kind. Homestickness, that nostalgia for one's own land, that in people feel, whatever heroine of "Quick sand" in the end gives way to historical emotion, while Luca keeps her pulse. She is an attractive figure still when she sails back into the Kinston Port, and looking upon the moun-

is the program with which we are
still confronted.
All statements about the cause of cancer in man are for the most part theoretical. One can clearly see that the disease is not any thing with branches penetrating into the body, as is commonly believed; it is not infectious; no one has ever been known to developed cancer as a result of contact with a sufferer. The condition is not a blood disease, but starts locally in some one spot. These cells may be carried to neighboring parts by the blood and lymph, nevertheless. A sad thing is that pain is not a symptom of early cancer; it often comes when the disease is advanced, the pressure is produced from the growth and endings. Pain is the most important symptom to a patient and the chief complaint which he will seek aid. So far no germ has been isolated which would lead us to suspect that cancer is a germ disease.
In spite of the wide publicity given to the statement of the Mayo Brothers that cancer is hereditary, other members of the profession, together with eminent workers over the world whose work has been particularly on this phase of cancer research, have not been able to find satisfactory proof of true heredity in this disease. This will be difficult for the lay public to believe, as the idea of heredity is as old as the investigative work correlated thousands and thousands of cases and found comparatively few families in which cancer did occur in a manner to suspect heredity.

We leave her endeavoring to find the rhyme words for a sonnet, and we are conscious that is author believes she will write a good one, for Lucea has the imagination of the poet, and hope for the poet's career. She is convinced that she is not part or parcel of the poet. This is individual self and her mixed blood gives her freedom from both races. And in this philosophy the book ends.
