Harlem Doctors Kept as Semi-Lackeys, Cosmopolitan Society Charges in Meeting Demanding Equal Chances for Staff Promotion
A wave of resentment, expressing itself in formal protest by medical groups, was in evidence today following Dr. Godirey Nurse's forced withdrawal from Harlem Hospital staff and his subsequent charges that the action was a part of the institution's policy of suppression of Negro physicians and surgeons. That Dr. Nurse's ousting and the

St. West 130th street. The meet-
er also substantiated reports that
internal dissension is flaring among
Negro groups in its attitude to
ward promotions at the institution.
With the doctors freely expressing
their views on reported existing
conditions, criticism fell sharply
upon the administration of Harlem
Hospital and upon the Negro assistants there. Four resolutions
were passed, endorsing the surgeon
who was forced to withdraw and
condemning the procedure of advan-
cement.
Although no official steps were taken toward securing an investigation by city authorities, the medical men contended that one was necessary, and that it could be obtained by a more suggestion. All plans for equal representation advocated by former Mayor Hylan have been discarded and the Negro physicians are still in mediocre positions, it was asserted. Dr. Oma H. Price, president, termed the hospital's attitude toward the Negro physicians as one of "gross injustice." Dr. Nurse's case he termed as "one of a series perpetrated upon Negro doctors there." He ended his talk with a plea for the men to join an "assault upon the forces of prejudice."
Resolutions passed by the body, according to Dr. Neville C. Whiteman, secretary, were:
1. That the Cosmopolitan Medical Club believes in the ability of Dr. Nurse to fill the position of adjunct assistant visiting surgeon, and is convinced of his integrity.
2. That the body objects to the appointment of white men to the staff of the hospital when they have not served in the disgensary.
3. That the organization objects to the advancement of any man, white or colored, without seniority rank.
4. That the hospital should have more of the spirit of teaching in both the dispensary and the hospital proper.
Speaking to the body before the resolutions were passed, Dr. Nurso declared that insubordination and inefficiency were the only two reasons which could be advanced for dismissal. He offered his reputation.

tion and practice as refutation of the latter. Refusal to assume a servile attitude-reward-his superiors (Dr. John F. Conners, white, is director of surgical service at the hospital) and a long fight for recognition for Negro doctors were responsible for the action, he stated. The first resolution was offered to back him in his assertion. The last came because the medical men contend that the visiting physicians and surgeons make no attempt to instruct or aid the adjuncts, and merely consider them as helpers. While not the most representative medical body of local physicians, from the standpoint of numbers, the Cosmopolitan Medical Club has as members many of the leaders in the profession. Its members are also identified with the North Harlem Medical Association. The club of forty-seven will have a direct voice in determining the action of the larger body, which has a membership of seventy.

Despite the fact that the counsel for the defense, M. A. Sachs, white, 250 Broadway, brought out testimony that, Officer Sidney D.

It was revealed also that two other persons were in the apartment when the "banker's" outfit was found, but were not arrested or haled into court as witnesses.
Owner Not Arrested
Miss Scott had been employed as a maid for four years in the home of a woman she described as Mme. St. Claire, a French shop owner. She was not arrested, however, despite the fact that the "catch" indicated that the apartment was the office of a "banker."
The girl's grandmother was engaged to do cleaning in the apartment, she said, and had worked there six months. She denied the charge of being a "writer," by declaring that her educational advantages had been the least possible and that she could neither read nor write.

Patrolmen Sherman and Howard Not Under Keller
Vigorous exception has been taken to a report published in The Amsterdam News under the date of December 26, in which it was stated that Patrolmen Howard and Sherman were members of former Acting Captain Zeke Keller's defunct "spy" squad and that they were sent out to watch uniformed patrolmen in the Sixteenth precinct. Keller has since been reduced to the rank of lieutenant and transferred from Inspector Valentine's office to another precinct.
Both Sherman and Howard, according to a more recent report, were not included with Keller's raiders, but were under the command of lieutenant Warshaw, who directed their activities. It is said, against "members," done and speeches. It was revealed, however, that in the event that information reached

With the U. S. Public Health Service launching a nationwide study of influenza, following the two-day Influenza Conference, which ended Saturday at Washington, the epidemic was seen gripping New York, as hospitals and the local health department noted serious increases of cases reported. That 26,000 persons died of the disease in the United States during the seven weeks ending January 5 is the estimate of United States officials. Three states, Maryland, Iowa and Texas, reported 12,614 new cases.
Ill With Pneumonia
Mrs. Luclen M. Brown is seriously ill at home, 315 Edgecombe avenue, with lobar pneumonia. She is under the care of Doctors F. T. Relf and James Granady. The nurses with her are Elizabeth Porter Phillips and Evelyn Pitter Walsh of the Harlem Hospital Nursing School.
Democratic Leader Dies at Age of 55 E. T. Chappelle, Railway Inspector, Passes at
Tammany Hall lost one of its active supporters Thursday, when Everett T. Chappelle, 55, 110 West 139th street, died at his home. He was given the last rites of the church Saturday, when the Rev. Fr. John W. Johnson of St. Cyprian's held services at his home.
Fred M. Williams, 249 West 128th street, conducted funeral arrangements. Interment was made Sunday at Lakeville Cemetery.
Mr. Chappelle was born February 13, 1873, at Roslyn, L. I., the son of Noah and Hannah C. Chappelle, niece Bryant. He received his early education in the New York public schools and was graduated from City College of New York in 1896.
In 1897 he was admitted to the bar. He married Miss Ida Bell Stout, who died ten years later. Becoming active in politics, Mr. Chappelle allied himself with the United Colored Democracy.
He was employed by the city as inspector of the Second Avenue Railway. Mr. Chappelle leaves a father, mother and numerous other relatives.

At Bellevue Hospital, main unit of the city hospitals, which is regarded in medical circles as an indicator of the public's general health, deaths were reported Monday to be the highest since 1918. All deaths average about ten per day at the institution. Last Sunday the number swelled to twenty-eight in a twenty-four-hour period.
While the definite figures are not available for influenza, hospital authorities lay blame for the increase to the disease taking its heavy toll in the West.
The Washington conference pledged itself to enlist national support in securing increased appropriations from Congress for health defense. The study will begin in the West and follow in the wake of the disease, and extend to the rural sections. A national survey by the Public Health Service showed the following figures for the week ending January 5:

DISPOSSESS NOTICE SERVED ON EDITOR OF AMSTERDAM NEWS
Seeks to Shield Action Behind Default in Payment of January Rent Instalment
Immediately following the publication in The Amsterdam News last week of the second of a series of articles and editorials concerning the Paul Laurence Dunbar Apartments, Inc., 2588 Seventh avenue, William M. Kelley, editor-in-chief of this publication and a tenant-subscriber at the Dunbar Apartments, was served with a dispossess notice, alleging that he is in default in the payment of his January instalment. The summons was made returnable in the Seventh District Municipal Court, 320 West 125th street, tomorrow at 2 p.m. Roscoe Conkling Bruce is resident manager of the apartments.
Payment by certified check was refused by Mrs. Wilbur Coleman, the assistant cashier and wife of the cashier, Tuesday afternoon. The messenger was told to come back later to see Mr. Bruce.
The January payment was due on the first. The dispossess notice was dated January 10 and served the same day. There were no other payments due or in arrears. The notice stated "that the management has been compelled by painful experience in a few cases to act..."

In a statement following the instigation of the court action to oust Mr. Kelley as a tenant-subscriber, he said:
"I am indeed sorry that Mr. and Mrs. Bruce have placed themselves in the position of seemingly attempting to wreak personal vengeance on me as editor of The Amsterdam News in a matter which is not personal at all, but which concerns all of the tenant-subscribers of Dunbar Apartments. I, myself, would have been in a similar position if the dispossess proceedings had been started before the appearance of the story on the long delayed leases in the December 26 issue of The Amsterdam News, at which time I was certainly not in default in making my payments.
"Moreover, in no instance since I subscribed to an apartment have I paid my instalment exactly on the first day of the month, and had an understanding with the cashier to that effect last April.
"Beginning with February 4, 1928, when I paid my first instalment, payments have been made for current months on the following dates: March 10, April 21, May 12, June 9, July 10, August 14, September 20, October 27, November 23, and December 15. The check issued May 12 was misplaced in the Dunbar office and was not presented at the Chelsea Exchange Bank for payment until August, and on September 1 I gave Mr. Coleman, the cashier, a check in its stead. I cite these facts as proof that punctuality did not actuate Mr. Bruce to have me served with a dispossess last Thursday."

His early childhood was spent in his home town. Later the youth moved to Hartford, Conn.
With little or no education in the public schools, the deceased prepared himself for the study of medicine by private lessons. In 1885 he was graduated from the Medical School of the University of Pennsylvania. He was active as an alumnus until his death.

He was first married to Miss Phoebe Rensum, who died in 1851 at the birth of a daughter, Phoebe, in 1894 Miss Lena Cole became his wife. Two children were born this union. Mrs. Cole-Johnson died in 1913.

Baumes Law Victim Learns Fate Today General Sessions to Rule on Suspended Prison
General Sessions to Rule on Suspended Prison
Term
Whether he will spend the rest of his life or three months in prison will he decided for Walter White today as he faces Judge Donnellan in General Sessions. Sentenced under the Baumes Law in 1927, White has only three convictions, receiving a suspended sentence one time, it has been discovered.
The once dapper prisoner, known upnown in his beeyard as "Silk Hat Harry," was brought here from the state prison at Daunemora where he was serving a life term for burglary. Arriving at Sing Sing, the warden discovered that White was a fourth offender and returned him for resentence to Life imprisonment. The Volunteer Defenders' Society, a unit of the Legal Aid Society, came to his aid, and brought to light the suspended sentence.
The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court ruled that a suspended sentence does not constitute final judgment. With a possibility of a favorable ruling, White may be released from prison in June. He has expressed the intention of becoming an evangelist in the event of his freedom.

ment, there is nothing under the heavens to stop them from taking similar action against any other subscriber who happens to offend them. This process could be repeated month after month, until the offending tenant-subscriber is completely wiped out.
"Personally, all of the Bruces and all of the employees of the Dunbar Apartments have always treated me courteously, but this is not a personal proposition, but a strictly business one, involving over 500 tenant-subscribers."
The Punctuality Letter
In a registered letter dated January 9 and received by Mr. Kelley the next day Mr. Bruco wrote as follows:
My dear Mr. Kelley:
Since your monthly payment to the corporation is now in arrears, being due and payable punctually on the first day of each month, I think it is my duty to let you know that the management has been compelled by painful experience in a few cases to act upon the policy of instituting summary proceedings at the Seventh District Municipal Court early enough in the case of any delinquent to secure the money due or to repossess the apartment a reasonable length of time before the arrears exceed the down payment minus the cost of redecoration and other necessary charges. But, of course, we reserve the right to enter proceedings, according to the circumstances of each particular case, at our discretion.
We dislike very much, indeed, to take court action, among the reasons being the fact that the usual charge for legal advice, preparation of papers, appearing in court, etc., is about $25, which is chargeable to the tenant against whom the action is brought. But, tenant-owners who make their payments punctually mdtst be protected.
The down payment in many cases is so small that no other policy would safeguard the corporation.
Sincerely yours,
(Signed) Roscoe C. Bruce,
Resident Managers
Mr. Kelley took occupancy on or about Jan. 10, 1928, after making the full down payment of $250 before moving in.

My dear Mr. Kelley:
Paid $250 Down
ant-subscribers have been permitted to take occupancy by making a down payment of only $100, the balance payable with interest, within the first year.
Discrimination
In a letter dated Dec. 31, 1928, a few days after the first story on the Dunbar Apartments appeared in The Amsterdam News, Mr. Kelley received from Mr. Bruce a letter complaining about a small puppy in his apartment and reminding him that no permission to have the dog on the premises had been asked. Permission was then asked to keep the pet, especially since this was not the only one there. However, Mr. Bruce replied with emphasis on Jan. 10 that permission to keep the pet would not be granted. "We are for the indefinite present approving no further applications," he said. "This policy clearly applies to your case."
Mr. Heydt Is "Sorry"
Charles O. Heydt, white, 26 Broadway, personal representative of John D. Rockefeller Jr., who built the $3,000,000 project and appointed Mr. Heydt as president of the corporation, said in an interview Friday that notices had been sent tenant-subscribers to call for their leases three months ago, but these notices were not sent out until after The Amsterdam News published its story on them in the Dec. 26 issue. "What about the delay of six months previous to that time?" Mr. Heydt was asked. "We are very sorry for the delay," he replied. "It will not happen again."
In a letter now being sent tenant-subscribers by Mrs. Bruce, together with their leases, it is stated that the leases were "received by me from the downtown office at 6 p. m. Saturday, Jan. 5." However, as early as Dec. 21 Mrs. Bruce told a reporter of The Amsterdam News that the leases were nearly all ready and that "the tenants may call for them." Mr. Heydt's affidavit in Mr. Kelley's lease was signed and

Ulysses S.

Poston also paid $250 down. These two dispossesses are believed to have been the only ones served up to Monday, Jan. 14.
It's the Tenant's Business
Mr. Heydt also pointed out in Friday's interview, that "the Dunbar Apartments are not Mr. Rockefeller's proposition," but the tenant-owners' proposition."
"Then why has a committee of tenant-subscribers not been formed heretofore?" he was asked.
"That committee is to be formed in June of this year," Mr. Heydt replied. "The reason it has not been formed before this is because we wore waiting for all the people to move in and become better acquainted with each other, so that they might choose from among them

SEVERAL LANDLORDS BOOSTING RENTS
Tenants to Demand Renewal of Rent Laws Through Albany Delegates
Tenants to Demand Renewal of Rent Laws Through Albany Delegates
One Landlord Gets Regular Sum in Court as Renters Refuse Increase; League to Petition
With 350 tenants known to have received notices of increases ranging from $10 to $36, with a half hundred fighting suits for increases and dispossesses, the rent situation increased in tenseness here early this week. One group of twenty-one renters was paying the regular stipulated sum in the Seventh District Municipal Court, pending the outcome of an increase suit.
Added to the activity occasioned by the expiration of the Emergency Court Laws and the consequent demands for higher rents, the Harlem Tenants' League had shown a sharp increase in membership. The body is also laying plans for sending a deputation to Albany to demand new laws to protect persons paying more than $10 per month for each room.
The tenants' organization will hold a meeting next Monday evening at the auditorium of the 135th street branch, Public Library, 103 West 135th street, Richard B. Moore president; Miss A. Elizabeth Hendrickson, vice-president, and Mrs. D. Campbell, secretary, are scheduled to address the meeting, in which a deputation will be designated.
The league, which maintains offices at 169 West 133rd street, reports that more than 200 notices of increases have been filed at its headquarters. Legal advice and assistance are being given thirty tenants in the Seventh District Municipal Court.
Banded to fight increases of $22 to $33 on the apartments at 101 West 140th street, twenty-one tenants are being sued by Herman Smithline, 561 West 147th street, landlord representative.
The tenants, led by Mrs. Agnes Baker, have retained Albert Grossman, white, 1446 Broadway, former Assemblyman, as counsel. The group paid its regular rent in court and refused to accede to the demand for increases.
In pointing out persons hard hit by the increases, the tenants' organization offered two examples, both which are resulting in court action. At 239 West 141st street five rooms have been boosted from $55 to $63. A short time ago the rent was raised from $50 to $55. This building is of the middle-class type and offers steam heat and hot water. Cold-water, unheated, walk-up tenement at 37 West 131st street. In which most apartments are five rooms, have risen from $29 to $39 monthly.
With landlords wary and tenants' attorneys gingerly feel about for extensions for six months at the direction of the court, the actions for increases are progressing slowly. new decisions are expected immediately, with adjournments being asked for almost as soon as the cases get underway.
It is noted that, while the brunt of the situation is keenest felt in Harlem, the Bronx and parts of Manhattan still offer equal and better accommodations for less money generally. On Riverside drive, near 135th street, apartments of five and six rooms are offered at $65 and $55, with the attractiveness of the neighborhood thrown in for good measure. Upper Broadway goes it even better, with the same size accommodations offered at $45 and $50. These properties, however, are largely closed to Negroes.
Youthful Gunman Given Maximum Sentence
Given the longest term possible under the law, Albert Cook, 25, 496 East 162d street, Bronx, was sentenced Wednesday in General Sessions to fourteen years in the penitentiary on charges of possession of a loaded revolver. Accused of holding up a Harlem speakeasy last September and arrested October 2 with a murderous revolver on his person, Cook was acquitted on the grounds December 21. Judge Francis X. Mancuso, who presided over the trial, hastened a week, imposed the sentence in Part I Wednesday morrow.

Bandit Pair Robs Two Women, Speakeasy and Stationer
Holdup men were active Monday night and yesterday morning, one of them staging a gun battle with the police.
Henry G. Coleman, 25, 137 Willowdale avenue, Montclair, N. J., is said to have admitted to Detective Bransfield of the West. 135th street station that he walked into the stationery and candy store of Ruben Nachamklin, white, 2298 Seventh avenue, and held him and three customers up at the point of a gun and took $31 from the cash register at about 10 p. m.

Coleman escaped, but was later arrested by Patrolman Jasper Rhodes of the same station on complaint of one Eva Pay, white, who stated that Coleman had held her up in the hallway of 259 West 152d street and took from her a purse containing $41.
Coleman was fingerprinted and taken to the police line yesterday morning for possible identification by other complainants.

Block and Tackle, Fastened on Roof, Lowers Huge Coffin to Street
Every necessary operation in the moving of a piano was employed in hoisting the coffin containing the body of Mrs. Sarah Kenny, 46, from the second floor through the window of the home at 1750 Third avenue, near Nexte-ninth street, to the hearse in the street below, Saturday afternoon.
The body weighed 640 pounds. Interment was at St Michael's Cemetery, where two graves, costing 110, were required to hold the body. The funeral cost $1,000, including payment to a crew of piano movers hired from M. Goldsack, ninety-eighth street and Third avenue. Joseph Hargreave, while Third avenue, was funeral director, Mrs. Kenny, who suffered from tumors, was taken very ill on December 8 last and died Thursday. Funeral services were held at the residence Friday night. The Rev. Mr. Washington of Sharon Baptist Church, 103d street, near Lexington avenue, officiated.
The deceased is survived by her husband, Emanuel, and her son, Harry, 27.
The awe-striken mourners looked on sadly as the piano crew, after closing the coffin, wrapped it in blankets, placed straps around it and tilted it on its side while attaching a block and tackle which swung down from the roof. The coffin was about 4 by 6 feet.
Strong arms pulled on the ropes, holisting the death box through the window and easing it down to rest on two wooden horses before the curious crowd of several hundred. A embodiment of police from the East 104th street station was on guard. The Amsterdam News photographer took pictures.
Ten strong men struggled with the dead weight and rolled it into the vehicle.

30 Families Driven To Street by Fire $10,000 Damage to House and Roofs—Police Rout
Out Two
The third fire to endanger the fires of Harlem tenants occurred about 4 o'clock Sunday morning, starting in the dumbwater shaft at 220 West 125th street and spreading to the roofs of 218, 220 and 222, driving thirty families into the windy streets and causing approximately $10,000 damage. The origin of the fire is unknown.
One unidentified person saw the flames licking over the corpse of the roof, sounded an alarm and telephoned police of the West 123d street station. Deputy Fire Chief Clark responded and sent in a second alarm. Police reserves arrived at the scene to hold back the crowd. Mrs. Anna Jacobs of 220 West 128th street fled to the street with her 16-year-old daughter Marlan, but left her daughter Hilda, 8, with Mrs. Rose Hyatt and Benjamin Martin. Flames prevented her re-entering the building and she grew hysterical. Police dashed through the fire and found the two adults and the child reluctant to leave the warmth of their apartment, where there seemed to be no grave, immediate danger, but they were compelled to get out.

Girl, 16, Held Slave by Southerners in N. J.
Three Male Companions Held for Receiving Stolen
Through information furnished by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a New York daily newspaper was enabled to investigate and publish the story of young Negro girl held as a slave by a white woman while living from South Carolina and now living near Little Falls, N. J.
The police report the odd story of a woman getting a male companion to hold her baby while she went, not knowing she was shoplifting, to arm the loot, the man.
The girl, Alise Martin, was "given" into the care of the white family, named Allen, when she was two years old. She is now sixteen, does the family cooking, cleaning and washing, without being paid; has never attended school or been taught reading, writing or arithmetic; has always worn cast-off, never new, clothes; has been prevented from association with other children, white or colored.
The woman is Anna May Gregg, Smith, alias Sullivan, who, together with Bessie Hall, 130 West 134th street, was arrested in a downtown department store. Both were arraigned in Jefferson Market Court last Wednesday and held in $500 ball each for Special Sessions on charges of larceny.
The man with whom the Smith woman left her two-and-a-half-year-old daughter, Ellene, is said to be Booker Mann, 19, 114 West 132nd street, who was arrested Thursday, 10th Street, in West 132nd street, and George Zachary, 27, 14A West 134th street, on charges of receiving stolen goods. Police said the men were in possession of 30 dresses stolen from downtown shops by the two women.
The N. A. A. C. P. will try to have the girl put in care of some institution or family where she will be properly cared for and educated. The girl has been taken in charge today by Mrs. Annie Randolph, a

Detective Stapleton of the same station was assigned to locate Mrs. Smith's baby. Starting at the home of Geneva McDaniel, 120 West 134th street, where Mrs. Smith gave up her partnership in an apartment on January 8, the search led to the Hope Day Nursery, 33 West 132nd street, but the baby was not found. Meanwhile, Mann was arrested and he told the police that he had given the baby to a man named Waldron, a roommate habitue.
The search finally ended at the home of Cleo James, 42 West 136th street, who told Detective Stapleton that an unknown man had left the child there. Miss McDaniel identified the child at the Sixteenth Prescinct. It was then remanded to the custody of the Children's Society.
One-Legged Robber Sentencd to Five Years
Found guilty of robbing a Bronx tailor shop owner of $27, Shuyun冈 Jones, one-legged bootblack, 32 West 136th street, was sentenced early last week to not less than five and not more than ten years in Sing Sing by Judge Barrett in Bronx County Court. Addressing the bench, Jones said:
"Judge, I tried to get honest employment since I came to New York, but no one would have me. I got no friends in this city and I was hoping that if I could just put over one job I might get enough cash to put a down payment on a cork leg." Judge Barrett remarked that under the Baumes laws he was obliged to impose the long sentence.

In the great battle for supremacy in life one's success lies in arriving at a conclusion as to the course you will pursue, and then with a grim determination stick to that course, and you always win. It is but natural, as we go through life, to desire the best. When in need you want the best doctor, the best dentist, the best dressmaker, the best milliner, etc. Then why be fickle, hesitate, experiment, lose time, money and patience when you wish to grow your hair, with a living example such as "Fulto" before you? There is no hurry, no may be so. You can believe what your eyes behold, and you can go and see in person, as hundreds are doing daily. "Fulto" is just as sure to grow hair as the sun is to shine.

Walls and Floors.
Wash your wains with a long or

Oiled floors should be swept with
a soft brush and dusted with a dry
or oiled mop. *arnished*
oiled floors and polished with
an oil mop. Waxed surfaces
should be cleaned with a soft dry
duster.
Rugs and Furniture.
A vacuum cleaner is excellent for rugs. In sweeping rugs, however, it is an aid to scatter wet ten leaves or dampened bits of newspaper over the surface before sweeping. Oriental rugs with thick plies should not be used for the moisture in the thresel and not them. Small rugs should be cleaned out of doors; rag rugs may be washed.
Do not use soap or washing woodwork should be rubbed occasionally with furniture polish, wax or oil, according to the finish. In large sponge and wipe as dry as possible, always wipe in one direction—with the grain of the wood.
Carved wood may be washed with a hair brush dipped in clear water. Painted and enamelized furniture may be washed.
For upholstery in a vacuum furniture brush is best. Leather furniture lasts longer if it is rubbed occasionally with castor oil. The liquid should be rubbed in wall

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN
A Play
Mrs. Smith: "Dear neighbor, can you lend me a little salt. I hate to ask you, but I ran out of it unexpectedly."
Mrs. Brown: "Why, certainly, my dear, I believe in neighbors helping each other as much as possible."
The next day Mrs. Smith returns salt.
Mrs. Brown: "Why, my dear, you needn't have returned it. Neighbors should help each other out. And listen, dear, woud you mind lending me your washing machine, waffle iron, chashing dish and vacuum cleaner? It's so lovely to have a near neighbor on whom one can call."
THE END.
That's the way it goes, good people. You borrow a toothpick and the "near neighbor" has an excuse to borrow your parlor suit. Don't start it.
I have an aunt who is wise enough to know the trouble caused by borrowing. Once, when she ran out of fire wood, she burnt up her clothes pins rather than start the borrowing habit with neighbors.
Don't start and then you won't have the problem of ending it. Such things are usually ended by a quar-

To two quarts of strong cold tea add the juices of six lemons, two cups of crushed pineapple with its syrup, one cup of maraschino cherries with their syrup; and a syrup made by boiling together two cups of sugar and one cup of water for five minutes. Chill and serve with cracked ice. This quantity will serve about twenty persons.

So you are troubled with rings left in clothing after it has been cleaned with gasoline. Well, rings may be avoided if you put a pad under the spot before gasoline is applied. Rub from the circumference of the circle toward the spot. Rubbing around a spot is far more necessary than rubbing on it. Always rub dry.

Dear Mr. M.:
I advise you to divorce your wife.
As she is an improper guardian, the child will be given to you. A broken-up home is far better then the kind of house in which she is trying to bring up a child.

Apply Perfume With Care
WHY is it that perfume has such a lovely fragrance on some people, and yet when you buy the same kind of perfume you can hardly detect it?
The manner in which you apply perfume has a decided effect. Dabbing some on the last minute is never so effective as it is when you take a little time.
After you have taken a hot bath and then a cool one, and had a good rubdown, it's a good idea to use some toilet water, the same fragrance as your perfume. Sprinkle it over you with your atomizer and let it dry on you. Then spray your perfume behind your ears and over your arms and hands.
It pays to buy the more expensive perfumes—the cheaper ones lose their fragrance almost as soon as they strike the air.
A mild perfume is far more pleasing and alluring than a strong one. Have you ever been in a crowded place, such as a department store, and felt actually sick from the different odors of strong perfumes? Buy your perfume at a reliable store and you'll know that you're getting what you're paying for. It's shaky business, you know, buying from these street agents. Because they tell you "it's imported and worth $10" doesn't say that you're not getting a fraud for $3. It may be worth 10 cents! Apply perfume carefully, and have a fragrant atmosphere about you.

“A Lone Voice Crying. Aloud. in
the Wilderness
J[®_WAS a Ione voice that cried alcud fn the wilderness when Whitney
and Tutt had crossed tho African desert and arrived at thelr detination
on New York's Broadway. ‘That voice came from a sympathetic writer
who tried hard to see promise in “Deep Harlem” at tho Biltmore Theatre
and not the fact aa dlsdlosed witen the Cushites started trom the depths of
the Dark Continent to arrive in front of a Soventh avenue theatre to dis-
close for the edification of untutored minds that the trade of the plmp ts

Closing our eyes wo withdrew from @ hat containing the
of tho metropolitan writers the appended article, which is the consenaus
of opinion as given forth last week ufler the gentlemen of the presé had
sat in on what a writer, whose partiality cannot be refuted, had taken
advantage to tell us was the show of the age. Lot us read:
“The first of the all-colored musical shows of the current season ar
rived at the Biltmore Theatre last night. It Is called “Deep Harlem” and
it le a nolsy, very toud, very nalve and conalderably boring sort of pageant
attempting to tell the story of the Negro race from early Africa to present-
day Harlem, In terms of musical comedy.
“The first scene 1s jald in the banquet hal! of the castle of the king
of the Cushites. It Is a fantaatic medley of cheap vaudeville, aecond-
rate musloal comedy, grand opera and what-not. At first, the bewildered
spectators thought that ‘Deep Harlem’ would turn out to be a satire, a
naive satire, to be sure, but a satire Just the eame, But the Messrs. Whit-
ney and Tutt, ax well as a huge cast, seemed to be deadly serious about It
all, So the baffled spectators just sat back In thelr seats and permitted
thomselvos to ’be carried through African Jungles, Southern slave mart,
jslave ships, Alabama plantations, Savannah backyards and Harlem
‘cabarets, through Incredibly old and absurdly pointless Jokes, through
Mexican blues and Kentucky blues, until they were forced to flee into the
open for fear that thelr eardrums would burst If they-stood Inside the
theatre another quarter of an hour.
“The cast Is no better than the show Itsalf. Not even the steppers and
the chorus—usually the most arrecting features of Negro shows—are up
to the standard other all-colored entertainments have taught us to accept.
‘The one thing that can be sald In their favor is that they are deadly serious
and genuinely ambitious all the time. But that’s not much. No, ‘Deep
Harlem! Just won't do.”
It fs the humble opinion of this writer that the time is not yet here
whon the white man, and hardly anybody else, 1s going to voluntarily
walle into, a theatre to be egueated to tho trials and tribulations of the
race, whon they are promised something in lighter vein—a musical
comedy. When the time comes that tho white brothor 1g roady t6 learn

Garland Anderson with his “Appenrances” found this out when ho
made the pilgrimage to the Big Street, although he had the stamp of

Tible Injustices inflicted on a people. On the other hand, the white
American is not at all satistled to sit fn a theatre and be reminded of

there are the-excoptions ‘who will appreciate the injustices inflicted at

Last Rites for Pastor's Wife
Ministers of Many Denominations at Funeral of Mrs. Adah Tyler
Over 1,200 people from every walk of life crowded into the historic Bridge Street A. M. E. Church Tuesday afternoon to pay the last tribute of respect to Mrs. Adah Eugenia Tyler, wife of the pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest Tyler. Prior to the funeral services the body lay in state and hundreds of colored and white persons who had learned to love Mrs. Tyler since her coming here seven years ago passed in solemn review to look at the remains. The Rev. Solomon Porter Hood, former U. S. Minister to Liberia and now president of Campbell College, Jackson, Miss, delivered the sermon. He was a personal friend of the family and did this at Mrs. Tyler's request. Presiding Elder Dr. George R. Coverdale of the Brooklyn District was master of ceremonies.
Even in death the vory presence of Mrs. Tyler seemed to overshadow that is, in life she was so modest and so modest in her. These elements showed themselves in the conduct of the funeral rites. There was a printed program of the funeral rites, and the letter. After the services there was no general review of the remains, and this reflected her innate retiring disposition. In the memoirs of the family arrived at the church. They were met at the door by a group of clergymen that represented practically every denomination in the church.
Dr. C. P. Cole, pastor of Bethal A. M. E. Church, announced the first baptism of a young girl in prayer by Dr. H. H. Proctor, pastor of the Nazarene Congregational Church. Following a hymn by the pastor of St. Augustine's P. E. Church, read the first Scripture lesson. Miss Gwandolyn Walker sang a solo. The pastor of St. Augustine's P. E. Church, Dr. George Shippen Stark, pastor of Siliam Presbyterian Church. The obituary was read by Dr. S. M. Sorrell, pastor of the Endeavor League of the A. M. E. Church. Mrs. Tyler,nee Dale, was born in Mississippi and went to college. She became a young girl. In 1908 she and Dr. Tyler were married. The obituary told of her activities in church work and work among the young people.
Bishop Rowdy B. Kansom and A. W. C. Brown, pastor of the Float Church, and A. W. C. Brown, pastor of the Float Church, they limited in lending the life and character of the deceased. The next was a solo by Miss Sadie Dr. D. Ward Nichols, pastor of the Emmanuel A. M. E. Church, Manhattan, announced that letters and telegrams had been received by the churches in the city, organizations in the church and many parts of the country. They were in such large numbers that would not permit the reading of them. The next hymn was announced by the Rev. Klimbull Warren, pastor of Bokmeyr Church, that would not permit the reading of them. Upon the conclusion of the sermon by Dr. Hood the benediction was pronounced by Dr. A. R. Cooper of Bokmeyr Church, annual Conference of the A. M. Church. The floral tributes were many and, as they stood in silent testimony around the bronze casket with silver flowers, the flowers were in the love and esteem in which Mrs. Tyler was held. Flowers were sent by every department of the church churches and many friends.
The honourary palebearers were at members New York Annual Convention of the Palebearers The active palebearers were George B. Durham and Clarence J. Holland the senior steward Prince Martin and Paul E. Costener of the junior steward board John McCoy and John L. Tay the class steward John B.

Homage Paid to Proctor Sunda
Jew, Gentile and Negro gather last Sunday night at the Nazareus Congregational Church, Grand ane and Fulton town, to celebrate the ninth anniversary of the pastate of the Rev. Henry Hugh Procte DD. The Rev. S. Parkes Cadma representing the Gentile, and Rabi Alexander Lyons, the Jew, paid image to the 'ability of Dr. Procte' It was in a sense a good-will meeting, such as both Dr. Cadman and Rabbi Lyons have long been advancing and each in his speech title to further cement the bonds of friendship and good-will between the two races.
"The day has come for the fellowship of all people," declared Cadman. "We are engaged in the splendid act of increasing the friendship between Christian and Jew. This is a new method of presenting our religion and the real progress nations depends on how they respond to this new religion.
"All people are alike inasmuch as they worship one God. The New may not have as high a level of civilization as some white people, but tomorrow he will have the foundation to stand upon that he is bullying today."
"Nowhere has progress been made in tolerance as in the South. The South has done with the past. Of ganizations have been formed certain religions to advance men's gardens of color. The leading and its down there are determined the the new day shall no longer be postponed."
"A certain Harvard professor on this told me that he was working on the chapter of a book and he was afraid he could never end it."
The chapter that he was working on was the race problem, and was afraid there was no solution for it. Well, if there is no solution it is the teachings of our Lord, the is none anywhere. The race problem will be solved, not by segregation but by the sharing of the gifts we have."
Rabbit Lyons brought a message of good-will from the Jewish people who can cleanse ourselves of our sins" and "washing them with humility. It is colored people who need education the white people have, a lot to learn in my opinion, the Negro is not on the equal of the white, but in condequence, the betrayer which he has overcome, in respects he is the white man's superior.

CAREERS FOR WOMEN. Teaching
To my mind the teacher is one of the most important people in the world. She is the guardian of 40 or so children of plastic minds and changing lives in our community, when they closest contact with the child and through her solicitude and guidance steers the child through its younger days. She is partly responsible for the ethical standards as an intellectual, attitudes of the child. If you ask the average teacher what she does, she will undoubtedly say. "I teach." That word teach covers a multitude of things. She teaches students as subjects, be the individual counselor for her children, and see that they come to school neat, tidy and clean. She must provide a pleasant environment for her children, correct their behavior and help them cultivate root habits.
Qualifications: To be a successful teacher you must have a real interest in children. You must be firm in your teaching. You must also speak correct English and have as good a store of general information as possible, for young children are always asking for different states and different states but it generally is a four-year high school course followed by a two or three-year normal course. Some states demand that you pass these assessments upon the completion of this course.
Advantages: The greatest advantage is in the satisfaction one gets from the work. There is great satisfaction when students mind unfold and grow intellectually. There is also the advantage of Saturdays off, holidays throughout the year and the long summer vacation. There are many cities, but on the average it is fair.
Disdvantages: The greatest disadvantage is the tiresome correcting of home work and examination settings and conferences which take a much of the teacher's time outside of the school hours. There is also a strain upon the nerves which is associated with teaching. In large schools a great deal of clerical work is involved in what most teachers dislike.

Railroad Man Was in Misery
"I was a sick man—could hardly go to work at all," says Mr. Chasa, E. Parker, of Charleston, Ill. "I had severe throbbing headaches, dizzy spells, indigestion, tightness in my chest, shortness of breath. I had dark, thick hair, and I could not stay in bed with my arm. Any way I turned I was in misery.
"I tried different remedies till I heard of Black-Draught. I took a couple of good, big doses of Black-Draught and saw a big change. I was better—it ate better and slept better. I kept it up till I took a nap. I said to the doctor that I could go back to my work. I am a railroader and my work is hard.
"I have kept myself fit by taking Black-Draught, and though I am 52 years old I can do my work with ease right along with younger men. I am never without Black-Draught. I give it to my nieces for colds and stomach troubles and it helps them. It helps dizziness and bad taste in the mouth—an all 'round good medicine.' Costs only 1 cent a dose.

Your Automobile By Robert G. Jones
Questions concerning motor trips and routes will be cheerfully answered by a self-addressed and sharped envelope.
Rambling Through the Auto Show
My most important weakness is the automobile, and as there are many folks who might "walk a mile in a Camel," likewise would walk a mile in a car automobile, or some novelty of one. Last week my weakness dominated and the twenty-ninth show of National Automobile Chamber of Commerce found me among the most curious questions about the "seemingly foreign" American manufactured cars.
The changes from the 1928 models were plenty, the Essex leading with over seventy improvements in the motor and transmission.
From the balcony of the second car I noticed that the prettiest cars on the main salon were the newly designed Willys-Knight roadster, the Oakland and Pontiac.
Chrysler and Dodge are about the same and the new model has not changed any from that of the late 1980s but this game out during the month of August.
Buick is the same and also the Nash.
Then I unconsciously walked into two frankish body styles, Franklin and Auburn, respectively. The cabin speedster of the Auburn is quite an odd affair for those that are interested in the pleasure car Franklin the wise, has a queer body which should attract the attention of the theatrical folk. It has an invisible running board that can only be seen when the door of the car is open.
The body is similar to a tank. I should after having seen the two queer looking cars what was to be next.
I was astonished at the performance record of the little Austin in comparison with the size. A car was about the size of a baby carriage and capable of doing 50 miles per hour at a mileage rate of 42 miles to the gallon of gasoline. Over to the side there was the giant Mercedes-Benz guaranteed to make five miles per hour, and about three times the size of the tiny Austin. Its eight cylinders made the motor look as if it was the largest part of the car. The Americans are copying the European body styles and transforming them to meet the needs and comforts of the American people. The show was worth the time that was spent in seeing it.

SENECA INDIANS HERE ON SUNDAY
The St. Joseph Catholic Club of Hoboken, N. J., went down to defeat at the hands of the Renaisaahoose Five at the night at the Renaisaahoose Casino by the visitors found a team somewhat crippled mentally and physically, for Manager Bob Douglass is in his bed with a very serious attack. Mayer on the shelf with a dislocated shoulder, and Capt. Slocum just out again after his recent illness, with no consequence not up to his true force. The champions played the Jerseyts off their feet to win as they pleased.
The Ronasance quintet lost no game after the start of the game and went into a ten point lead, at which point he was an exceedingly brilliant exhibition snappy passing, making no effort to score baskets, even though time and again one of their players was in position to shoot an easy one. This pleased the team, and the team feels somewhat sheepish, even though they might have learned something about passing during the exhibition. The Sanders finally ended the half in the lead 19 to 8. Capt. Shannon gave Sanders a rest in the second half, and called upon lillie to hold down the pivot position. Monroe also replaced Ricks a few minutes earlier, and frame, and this new combination then led for 20 more points. The visitors, however, did a little better in their second half and scored 18 points. Roney of the St. Joseph team was also a score man of the game with 5 floor goals and 6 fouls for 16 points.
Salich led the champions with 5-10 points for the first half and 5-10 points for 11 points. Pappy Ricks, playing in only the first half and a few minutes of the second, scored 5-10 points for 11 points. Next Sunday night the Seneca Indians five from the Tuscarara, the Irving Reservation, who are making a tour of the country, will appear at the casino as the opponents of the champions. The Indians have built up quite a reputation as a fast and dangerous team and a good game is looked for.

RENS CONTINUE VICTORIES AT HOME COURT Sol White Tells of So-called Baseball Leagues
Our Baseball Leagues
Our Baseball Leagues
By SOL WHITE
BASEBALL players are anxiously awaiting the outcome of a meeting to be held in the near future by owners of baseball teams who are interested in forming a colored league. Quite a few star ball players, familiar with the methods of business
procedure of modern promoters, are of one opinion regarding the inferior status of the game today and the uncertainty of its future. The players unanimously voice a lack of confidence in the manner the Eastern Colored Leagues have been conducted in the past and cite conditions of a short three years back when salaries received were almost double the money offered today.
PHILA
GIANTS
Some players seem to think that several owners of colored teams could have placed the game on a higher plane financially had they used their prestige, influence and social advantages in the interest of the league. The players now realize that something must be done to create interest and revive the spirit of sportmanship by which the profession will advance and prosper. They (the players) will tell you, in language easily understood, that some of the owners lack the knowledge to blend a baseball team into a successful league. On the other hand we have some baseball players who
think that the present uncertainty and lack of interest and poor patronage is due to the reckless deportment of a few of our star players and the nutes will tell you that ball players cannot stand prosperity; that publicity swells their heads and demands for more salary are the result of boostings. The magnates, I am not including all, charge the ball players field and take the life out of a game to the detriment of its patronage.
But who are we looking to bring the old game up to its proper place in our group? Where lies the responsibility for its future? It can workmen. It's a very poor policy of the players, because they are hired him ruin your business. So there seems to be some merit in the contention of ball players that the league, here before, has not been conducted in a way for a prosperous future.
Basketball leagues are all right in a "way," but sometimes they don't "welch" much. Several clubs can organize a league any time, but the thing of it is, what they will do with it after they get it. Sometimes a meeting is called, a league is organized and then they are calling meetings all season to find out why they organized. Don't let that be the way with our league.
The Sportive Spotlight
IN OUR desire to give space to the news of the activities of our people in the news of sport we outlines with the point of personal comments which we at one time took to reproduce. However, it is not without a sense of satisfaction that we interest shown by a number of independent persons in our profession of personally calling to voice their opinion or taking the time to drop us a line. Our special article on the passions of our people seemed to have struck a popular cheered and many letters have come to us.

Dear Hir:
Plain Congratulations
Editor The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir--Allow me to congratulate
you for your brilliant article on "Tex"
Richard.
In reply to your editorial, "The Pressing of Tex Hickard," which appeared in your edition, I intend to do as you did. But first, I wish to compliment you, because you wrote it as it was; it not only expressed your opinion, but acted as a test of the entire Negro race. True, as you said, the secret that Hickard had shown prejudice he promoted the Jefferies-Johnson beat at Iteen in 1810. Hickard, like many of his race, has risen to his heights in the expense of the Negro, only to turn him into an accomplice. In the boxing game today there are just such champions who feel the same way to colored contenders; especially Walker and Dundee, like you, will forgive, but not for forget.

Moved by His Emotions
WHEN it comes to racing over the parchment in approved style there are few that can breast the tape ahead. Our good friend Dr. Rollo Wilson, once a champion, but now of Philadelphia, and now of Courier. Our admiration for the good doctor made us almost partial when it came to giving an estimate of his ability in the world of sport, but Rollo has been a staff recently that calls for a few lines. His hope will do much in arresting his tendency to be misguided by his emotions.
Dr. Wilson a few weeks ago ran a rumble in an article in what a number of magazines "magazine secrecy" on the cover of his book "death of Walk Miller and the latter's association as manager and business mentor of the late Peter Flower. With his assistance the same team unleashed the Philadelphia chess team. Burry Corrison columnist gave us a brilliant essay on why George Stiffey was permitted to fight for the championship, and assures he suddenly found out that that champion WILL fight for the championship.
You are justified in telling the truth about those whom in their lifetime had been enemies of the people. As you may, it is open in respect to he frank and open in respect to the malicious as the lead in a man of public reputation. The story is told that when Senator Lodge had passed away, a Mr. Lee Nighman was asked by a friend if he was going to attend the funeral of the late, and which he replied, "No; but I enjoy it."
spurred on by emotions called forth on the death of "Text" Richard and appalled on the anxieties to get the attention of the crowd, the morbidly "emote" whatever the new audience up to a public character, we find Iolaire, the titling of the appended article in the
This in the spirit. If more colored clothes we would today be far better off. The result that there are so few enem in the world that we can afford to charge son thinks that to say one is better than another.
WHOSE WORD, BRUTUS?
In a dream which our good friend, W. Rolle Wilson, experienced while on a mythical trip to the moon he tells us the word 'Rickard was the letter's bond, this dream closewere on this page.
Mr. Wilson would have us be lieve he is so far on the inside of boxing he know all about the details wherein Mr. Rickard had planned to stage a fight between George Godfrey and Jack Dempsey at summer. As we have pointed out, Mr. Wilson's article, he failed to hit when time came for him to say something because Mr. Rickard had passed away. Let us now see what the man whose word is his bond had to say where Negroes are concerned after the Jeffries-Johnson fight: "Boxing been good to me and I don't want to hurt boxing. I never formed to hurt those California women on their knees praying to my wife to use her influence to stop the spectacle of black and white man fighting. I'll never forget the riots blamed on the fight. It can't be done. I could match and Dempsey and put over the greatest man in history. But I won't do it. Boxing would suffer and I owe boxing too much for that."
It is a good thing that Mr. Rickard used the word "boxing" instead of "fighting," for we were getting ready to ask his friends how many California women went down on their knees and men from fighting to keep black men from fighting to men when the Germans started a big drive. We also notice that despite thousands of black men going into that fight to whip white men there was not one riot or a semblance of one when the announcement was made of the plans of the late President Obama, you don't look out, Rollo, we'll make that the Pennsylvania Boxing association knew what they were doing when they passed you up in the run for office.

march of a nation. We sincerely ask our friends in the boxing game to lavishly spread cold cream or vinaigrette on their hands, and to show their outstretched, and among whose friends, particularly designate Jesse McMahon, Mr. Hickard's former matchmaker, whom Mr. Hickard will get as much fun out of Jello's bon appetit as the dose day night at the Olympia when he cracks the office door to pike off a board journalist taking his seat at the boxing ring. He really meant to give readers on account of the fights in his journal. Rollo also natively hints that he is "on the inside," a smack most of a desire, to join in the fight. Rollo is the best that our Philadelphia friend could produce in a plach. Let us read and wear:
It may be told. Now that death has intervened, that which was a secret need no longer be inviolate. Text Hickard was the man who was to promote the proposed fight between Jack Spencer and George Godfrey next summer.
"Autohowing as it may seem to those on the outside, the shore statement is based on authentic information, on personal sight of telegrams between some of the principals, and the assurance of a non whose best bond is no better than his solemn word."
"Tex Richard, had he lived, would have made the most superb gesture of his dramatic career in the promotion of this knife. As I have hinted for weeks, the lines were being drawn, the cards were being smacked for this fight. False rumors were minding the lines. Had they been made to them by the Master of the Show, The big hallyhoo was on, and yet so shrewdly was it plotted that less than a dozen people knew the truth."
"Jack Bemsey is old as fighters go and and tired of the war. He is weary of the weeks of training, the exerfice necessary for physical perfection. But Jack was Richard's yale, and Jack would forever anything, endure anything, to help the man who made him a millionaire. For RICKARD, Jack would once again enter the hempen sing."
"With Richard dead, will Bemsey still look with fatu or another championship tussel. That, now, is the question."
"If Trumpy will light for another
the light he will stand and, and the
Bell Follish will will stand,
the entirely end of the Texican
life. The entirely end of the Texican
will not injure the drawing power of
the Texican, the natural "natural"
it will advertise itself, itself, as
boned there will be no necessity of
a full-up, flouch Tex would have
a full-up, flouch Tex the length and
breath of the country."

LEADER VERY ILL
Manager 'Bob' Douglas Suddenly Stricken and Is Taken to Hospital
A shock which went through the entire athletic world of this city last week like a sudden stroke of lightning followed the news of the illness of Manager "Bob" Douglas of the Renaissance Five, which was exclusively told in those columns in the newspaper. Of friends took lightly the news of the illness of the popular manager when first announced, many believing that Douglas was simply indoors on account of a slight cold. His equipment came thick and fast as the work progressed. It was discovered that Douglas was stricken with a case of double pneumonia which showed the first symptoms on the previous Saturday when started out to join his team, which had been scheduled to play at Elmhurst.
Douglas, providentially, missed the train, for while he was on his way home in the company of Chris the world, suddenly dudderly hit the street and home. Dr. Leo Fits Nearon diagnosed the case as double pneumonia and immediately devoted his time and talent to Douglas, a friend of Smith and Salch, were placed in attendance on the manager as a case of typhoid later developed and Douglas was a very sick man. Smith decided that the seriousness of the case demanded quick removal to the hospital of the patient and he was taken to Bellevue Hospital, where Monday afternoon it was said Douglas was ill and the illness of the popular basketball manager throw his associates into deep deception, although they immediately tried to do everything in their best friend and business companion.
On account of the close relations which have always existed between these gentlemen of the Renaissance, steps were immediately taken to equip the team of the work. Captain Slocum of the team took charge of the schedule and the outfit will continue to "carry on" the same as in the past. Expressions of sympathy were flooded in 1831 by the family and in behalf of the family Messrs. King, Sibley and Mercer sent out thanks through this paper for the unusual display of warm friendship with the Smith and Bob Douglas. Through the columns of this paper friends will be kept advised of Douglas' condition.

League in Annual Meeting
CHICAGO, Jan. 12. (A. N. P.)—The annual meeting of the National Negro Baseball League, which was held on Saturday, continued through Monday, and moguls endeavored to thrash out the problems that confronted the organization. The meeting rumors were rife that all was not well and that certain delegations would cause trouble at the sessions. It was furious that a general reorganization would take place with new officers. Following the meeting the statement was given out that all was true that Judge W. C. Hueston had been hired to that job and that Q. J. Glimore, the secretary had resigned to establish a league down South. No successor was final. Traits and other new polices will be released to the public later.

With the installation of, Caapa Holstein as exalted ruler of Monarch Lodge No. 45, Monday night, he brought to bear on him to design a candidate for grand exalted ruler of the l. B. P. O. E. of W.
Just now, the man whose name is synonymous with the brand new apartment house just erected by the Lodge, lodge and his supervision at a cost of 600.000. In 1838 street, is busy working out the final financial plans for that building and seeing to it that the apartments, all fully rented, are ready for those who have rented them by the time attention will be paid to the building of the next house and to the new Monarch Lodge clubhouse.
His supporters say that there is a growing demand for Holstein to take the head of the order away from Finley Wilson. Last week in Dept. of Defense, he boarded the trustees, several of them greed that, if there was to be a new grand exalted ruler elected this year, the only man likely to take the crown away from the present holder would be the New Yorker.
In Chicago, the staunch friends of Holstein would bring an almost unitary Wind City delegation to support Baltimore's mounting the sting of having the coming grand lodge session snatched away from her, together with the entire Tidewater section of Virginia (whose memory of Jimmie Carter is not yet dimmed), are all insisting on Holstein making the race. The race is a race and race and then decline the election in favor of George E. Bates of Orange, N.J., former grand secretary was vigorously denied by Holstein when he was

Wiley may now become outspoken in their opinion that the time has come for a change. For seven years Mr. Wilson has headed the order, and during that time he has built up a superb reputation by training their own official positions and to keeping in power J. Finley Wilson. Thus, at each successive election of Wilson, the same Wilsonites are also elected and the same Wilsonites throughout the country are appointed to the Church's White Lawyer.

arch Lodge is erecting on the site of the old Liberty Hall under Mr. Holstein's direction, we asked him, point blank: "Why have you a white lawyer managing the affairs of a Negro lodge in the matter of those Monarch buildings?" "Be-ware of Negro lodge! Monarch that was no Negro lawyer! Monarch Lodge capable of handling the big money deal involved."
Then he explained that the building already erected and into which tenants are now moving cost $300,000 to build. Of this sum, Monarch Hill contributed but $25,000. An addition cost $20,000, and occupies through the sale of bonds, and, incidentally, not a single bond has been bought by any person other than a Negro, notwithstanding stories to the effect that bonds were being offered downtown indiscriminately. Through Louis Jacobson, the builder of the fifty-eight apartment of the fifty-eight apartments the building will now care for itself financially, and it stands recorded in the Hall of Monarch Hill's property. Monarch Lodge, despite its negligible sum which the lodge has actually put into the building.

Scoutmaster Glenn of Troop 773 not to be outdons, contributed to the prize eight gold medals to be given to the patrol, also Stephen Aspnall, who couldn't give any gold medals, contributed eight silver medals so the lucky patrol leader will not only get the $22.50 wrist watch, but the patrol membri will receive two medals each.

"This seemed to affect my back. I could not tell how much I suffered, but was tired and nervous all the time. I complained a good deal, for I just couldn't help it.
"My husband advised me to try Cardul, which I did. I took two bottles at this time, and soon I was well and strong. I seemed to be much better after taking it and my back quit hurting.
"Once since, when I felt I needed a tonic. I took two bottles of Cardul. Again I felt much stronger. I am in splendid health now, and I recommend Cardul to my friend."

Whose Business Is It, Anyway?
IN THE FIRST EDITORIAL in this series The Amsterdam News said that "there has, seemingly at least, been too much of the schoolroom variety of management in the operation of the Paul Laurence Dunbar Apartments during their first year of occupancy," and that the management was too autocratic in spirit. The assertions were provoked by the withholding of leases and subscription agreements binding the owners and the tenant-subscribers, but which the tenant-subscribers did not have in their possession. Since the appearance of the first editorial it is probable that most of the subscription agreements have been delivered to the tenants.
THE SECOND EDITORIAL viewed "with alarm the fact that out of the pockets of the tenant-subscribers . . . the better part of twenty thousand dollars" went directly into the coffers of the Bruce family, the head of which is the resident manager. In neither editorial was gross inefficiency charged; nor were the amounts paid members of the Bruce family deemed exorbitant.
WE STILL BELIEVE that Mr. Rockefeller erected the apartments with a view to bettering the housing conditions of the Negro in New York City, and that he is entitled to interest on his investment. We know that if he had been interested solely in making money the same amount he invested in the Dunbar Apartments could have been invested elsewhere at a much higher return. Nevertheless, we are convinced that somewhere, somehow, his intentions have miscarried and that the people who subscribed to stock in the corporation are not being dealt with in a fair and equitable manner, as set forth in the agreement. For instance, one tenant-subscriber, who subsequently gave up his apartment, reports that his "monthly credit of stock was not worth the ink that was used on the paper to write it down," and his assertion has been borne out in every case that has been brought to our attention so far.
THIS WILL BE brought out in detail later. We quote from the long-delayed lease and subscription agreement, as follows:
A BOARD OF ADVISORS, consisting of six (6) subscribers, shall be elected one each from the respective subscribers occupying each of the six apartment buildings mentioned in said leases, by a plurality vote of a majority of all of such subscribers occupying each of said apartment buildings, which will be held during the month of April in each year. The owner will notify the respective subscribers in the manners hereinafter provided and at least ten days in advance of such meetings, of the date, time and place thereof. No failure to give such notice shall affect the validity of any action taken at any such meeting. At such meetings the respective subscribers shall be entitled to one vote each, regardless of the number of shares of stock which shall have been issued to them. The Board of Advisors shall confer, from time to time, with the officers and Board of Directors of the owner and shall place before them such suggestions and recommendations of the subscribers as shall have been first approved by the Board of Advisors, and in general the Board of Advisors shall co-operate with the owner in its management and operation of said apartment buildings in such manner as the Board of Directors of the owner may by resolution from time to time more fully provide for, but otherwise the Board of Advisors shall have no powers, duties or authority.
THUS IT WILL BE SEEN that as far back as last April a Board of Advisors should have been elected to co-operate with the owner and management, at which time a majority of the apartments were occupied. Mr. Bruce reported to the tenant-subscribers that the apartments were 100 per cent sold on May 14, 1928. No provision has been made to comply with this provision—which the tenants knew nothing about until they received their subscription agreements a few days ago—up to this date.
RETALIATORY MEASURES against these articles and editorials on the Dumbar Apartments were begun last Thursday when dispossess proceedings were started against the editor of The Amsterdam News and the husband of an editorial department employee by the resident manager on the ground that they were in default in the payment of their January 1 installments as tenant-subscribers, as set forth elsewhere in this issue. Petty intimidation of this kind, however, will not prevent The Amsterdam News from continuing to turn the spotlight of public opinion on a subject it considers its business, the business and interest of all of the tenant-subscribers and the general public.

Dr. DuBois and the Press
DR. W. E. B. DUBOIS has done more for the advancement of the American Negro than any other living man. At a time when the doctrine of eternal Negro inferiority was in vogue, when Negroes themselves were succumbing to the theory that they were natural sons of the hoe and not of the pen, when they were told to look at the world of art and intellect as a worm looks at the unattainable clouds, when the general policy of the race was to suffer everything and resent nothing, DuBois stepped bravely forward to champion the unpopular cause of Negro aspiration.
WITH FLAMING pen he combated the trend of the times. Hated by sycophants, ridiculed by compromisers, assailed by the Uncle Toms and their white masters, he fought on and on, insisting that the Negro be granted a full share in the wealth, the art and the government of the world. He never retreated, never glossed over the wrongs of his race, never cried peace when there was no peace. In due time he won his fight, he compelled the world to look beyond the Negro body to the Negro mind, and he cleared the way for the present efflorescence of Negro arts and letters. He still fights on for justice to the Negro and the union of all the Negro peoples of the world.
IN VIEW of these great services, many people have wondered why DuBois has never won the public affection that was so freely given the other great leaders of the race. Douglass, Fortune, Washington and others in their day were idolized by the colored people. They, too, had their faults, but they were the more or less endearing weaknesses of humanity in general. The mass of the people admire DuBois from afar but take him to their hearts. Though his heart is burning and bleeding for them, though he is fighting their own fight, they do not feel that he is really one of them.
FOR THIS RELUCTANCE there is more than one reason. For one, his services, though vital, are not or the kind to be appreciated by the masses; they belong to the world of the intellect. The people can understand a Douglass thundering against slavery, a Fortune cursing the police for brutal treatment of Negroes, a Washington building a tremendous school, a Dunbar voicing their joys and woes in song; but a DuBois effecting a psychological revolution is rather beyond them. They are uced to leaders of men; DuBois is a leader of thought.
EVERY VIRTUE has its corresponding fault, and it is DuBois's double misfortune that both his virtues and his faults have cost him popularity. His scholarly aloofness, though gradually melting with the years, has caused him to be accused of a lack of human sympathy for the average Negro, and his occasional tactlessness has aggravated the disfavor.
THIS FAULT was too plainly illustrated in a recent speech, in which he told the people of Washington that their support of The Crisis would not be missed if it were entirely
ON THE morning of December 27, 1928, I received a circular calling for a conference to be held in Washington, D.C., on the eighth of January, to oppose the proposed Cruiser Bill sponsored by the present administration. The recently negotiated treaty to renounce war and the bill for ten new battleships were then rival claimants for congressional consideration. The conference of protest was sponsored by the leading publicists, scholars and idealists of America.
The margin between abstract morality and political ethics is a wide one. Every moralist in America protested the Mexican War and the seizing of Texas. We hold fast to our far-flung insular possessions in moral defiance of every principle which we once held to be ideally sound. We drove the Spanish monarch from the Western Hemisphere over the issue of the sinking of a ship.
I can recall that, when the sinking of the Maine was the decisive issue, the ardently patriotic Senator from Alabama advocated sendin' down to Havana a committee of investigation to ascertain the cause on an American battleship; but on uncanniness the doughty Senator also believed there would be little need of the investigation until after the bolching of the battleship. We keep our stranglehold on Hatti and Nigc-

CRITICISM
sponsor the election in Nicaragua and write the Constitution of Haiti. Seven patriotic Presidents since the term of Benjamin Harrison have placed one hand on the Holy Evangel and lifted the other to high heaven in solemn oath to execute, uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States, and yet no one of them has lifted the little finger to give this oath full effectiveness and force. Men who still believe in the existence of an interested Deity would be compelled to regard this oath as sacrilegious, so far as the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments are concerned. Practical prudence and statesmanlike prudence render a solemn oath utterly meaningless.
I suppose that Negroes mainly will read these lines, and yet they have a significance which for transcends any limited racial application. The American people have ceased to take their moral pretensions seriously. The Constitution itself becomes a scrap of paper when it suits the mood of the people to make it no. A great publicist defies the part of the Constitution which does not suit his taste and fancy and encourages others to like defiance, without a word of rebuke from the Government whose sworn duty it is to safeguard that instrument in its integrity. The moralists express amazement at President Coolidge for presenting to Congress a treaty to outlaw war in one hand and a request for ten new battleships in the other. To the pragmatical statesman there is no moral inconsistency. Of course, England

withdrawn. In the same address he angered the newspapermen by declaring that advertisements are given to Negro newspapers either as charity or as a sort of blackmail, simply to keep the newspapers off the advertisers. These remarks, subsequently explained by Dr. DuBois, were not nearly so bad as they sounded; but even with his interpretation they cannot be called anything but tactless.
THE PEOPLE bore with the faults of their other great leaders because of their services, and they should bear with DuBois. As a brilliant leader of thought, he is doing as much for them as their leaders of men.
Lynching and Liberals
THERE WERE only eleven lynchings in 1928. That is, only eleven were recorded. Not all the violent deaths of Negroes in the South find their way into the newspapers. According to escaped peons and others, a Negro is often shot or beaten to death and the coroner ascribes it to natural causes. There is some encouragement in the fact that the number of lynchings dropped from thirty in 1927 to eleven in 1928, though the 1928 record is just eleven too many.
OF THE ELEVEN LYNCHINGS six occurred in Mississippi, two in Texas, and one in Missouri, in Louisiana and in New Mexico. Georgia was caught napping this year; she didn't produce a single lynching. In view of the Southern argument that lynching protects womanhood, it is significant that of the eleven men lynched only three were accused of attacking women. Two men were lynched because their brother had killed a sheriff, and one man was lynched without being accused of anything.
THE STATEMENT of Governor Bilbo of Mississippi, when he was asked to investigate the lynching of Charley Shepherd, proves the necessity of a Federal law to cope with the Southern lynchers. Governor Bilbo said that he had neither the time nor the money to investigate lynchings. When the constituted authorities of a state admit their inability or unwillingness to deal with crime it is high time for the national Government to take a hand.
IT IS ALSO TIME to ask what has become of all the justice-loving liberals who rushed to Boston in 1927 and got themselves arrested for their violent demonstrations on behalf of Sacco and Vanzetti. These two men were allowed to live seven years after the commission of the crime with which they were charged; they had trial after trial; even after the courts condemned them their case was referred to a special committee of distinguished citizens; professors wrote books defending them; and the liberals still raise their hands in horror at their execution, "that gross miscarriage of justice," as they call it. They still contend that Sacco and Vanzetti were executed because they were Anarchists.
WE ASK THESE LIBERALS to tell us why it is more unjust to execute a legally convicted man because he is an Anarchist than to burn an unconvicted man at the stake because he is a Negro. They filled the daily press with their lamentations about two Anarchists, but they ignore the lynchings of Negroes in the South.

will renounce war if convinced that America is her superior in naval power. The accommodating Senate has agreed to pass the pacific treaty and will then proceed forthwith to provide for the requisite number of battleships to enforce the hoped-for pacificism. The pacifists may indeed meet and deliberate and indulge in fine-spun theories.
Is it not well that our doctrine is better than our deeds? Keep the heart pure, for out of it are the issues of life. Our principles should always be better than our practice, which should aim at perfection by constant approximation. Conduct pays homage to conscience by acknowledging its unattainability. Our Puritan Presidency Quaker successor, in their calm manner, is the inner voice of right, but when geared up to the machinery of governmental task they will be motivated by practical rather than abstract guidance.
H. G. Wells has said somewhere that the religions of the world have become insincere and unconvincing. Christians no longer live up to their creed. Shall we bring the doctrine down to the deed, or the deed up to the doctrine? The statesman does not profess to live up to his constitution or declaration of principles. Shall we vitiate the Constitution to suit the exigencies of statemanship, or hold the statesman up to the high aim of the Constitution? Are we as a nation to become frankly a nation of hypocrites, or will our present-day hypocrisy give way to genuineness and sincerity?

Heart Irregularities
THERE are two types of heart irregularity which are very common and often the cause for much worry for those who have them. The first impression gets is that he is suffering from heart disease. This is not true in the great majority of cases. The heart beats take place in a definite cycle along a definite pathway in the walls of the heart and may be affected not only by disease in the heart itself, but by outside nervous influences.
THERE are two types of heart irregularity which are very common and often the cause for much worry for those who have them. The first impression one gets is that he is suffering from heart disease. This is not true in the great majority of cases. The heart beats take place in a definite cycle along a definite pathway in the walls of the heart and may be affected not only by disease in the heart itself, but by outside nervous influences.
Palpitation is an unduly forcible and sometimes irregular heart action perceived by the subject. It may occur in disease of the heart, but is much more frequently nervous in origin. It seems to be more common in women and, in them, is often associated with anemia, womb trouble, worry, stomach disorders and overindulgence of coffee. In males it is often due to oversmoking, alcohol and fatigue. Attacks may be brought on by comparatively trivial causes, such as slight emotional disturbance or sudden exertion.
The attacks vary in frequency and duration. They may come on at long, or short intervals, and they may last a few minutes to some hours. When severe, they are accompanied by a sense of faintness, with some degree of pain around the region of the heart, sensations of vertigo and noises in the ears, a fullness in the head and sometimes perspiration. The milder attacks are more transient and may give rise to a sudden feeling

THE WHITE GIRL, By Vera Caspary. Published by J. H. Sears & Co., New York. $2.00.
"SHE was not indignant at the thought that white people's prejudice prevented her from earning a living from the work for which she was fitted. She did not once consider the injustices suffered by her race. She did not care what happened to other colored girls. She did not like Negroes. She considered them a shiftless people, who deserved their lot. She resented her Negro blood as a might hate a deformity, because it stamped her an infestation."
The girl who felt all this was Solaria Cox. She was a Chicago colored girl, but her skin, hair, features, affections and affections were Caucasian. She wished to pass for white not because of larger social, economic or aesthetic opportunities, but because she actually hated colored people. She hated the mother who nagged her and despised the father who worked himself to death to rear her, not for their defects but for their color. To her, the worst white person was better than the best Negro; she would rather be a white man's mistress than a colored man's wife. Two respectable colored men propose marriage to her and she rejects them insultingly; but she enjoys a pick-up acquaintance with a white stranger on a bus. As she is depicted as a virtuous, industrious and ambitious girl, the reader by this time knows how her story will end if it proceeds logically. And it does.
She comes to New York-to pass for white. She gets work as a photographer's model, chumming with two white girls, one of them a demirep and the other a baby-faced gold-digger. Then begins a career which is satisfactory on the material side and shoddy on the spiritual. Whenever Solaria sees a colored person she trembles for fear that her race may be detected. Soon she is paying black-mail to a Negro elevator boy who has recognized Negro blood in her. After that she flees from pillar to post to escape the shadow of her race, and her life is one scare after another.
Even among white people she is never at ease; she feels a menace in a chance remark or a keen glance; she is startled at the mention of the word Negro. Besides, she sees mostly the manner side of the white race, the kept women, the silly pimps, the flesh buvers, the dope-dealers, a set without one estimable character. But even this does not change her idea that the worst whites are better than the best blacks. At last she meets a decent white man and falls in love. They become engaged without her confessing her race. Her constant fear of exposure causes several quarrels and her lover wonders what is the matter. Ther is always the dread question of what he will do if he finds her out. Complications and misunderstandings pile up as the story draws to its end. What the end is may be learned for 92, the price of the book.

or suffocation and fluttering of the heart.
It is sometimes difficult to assure a patient, after efforts have been made to rule out any serious disease of the heart, that the condition is not serious, and really comes from some sources outside the heart. The treatment consists in removing the cause, allaying the anxiety and regulating the diet and hamits. Tea, coffee, alcohol and tobacco should be forbidden and mild sedatives administered.
The other common heart irregularity comes as an extra heat. This may or may not be felt by the individual, but is readily recognised on examination. In the absence of a weak heart, this symptom is of very little consequence. It is common in young people and often associated with excessive cigarette smoking. The cause, however, may be the same as is the case of palpitation.

thought out rather than felt out. It is well written, but it is in terms of situation rather than character. The author has not gone deep enough into Solaria Cox's nature. The thousands of colored people who pass for women could tell the author a thing two. Like all human beings, they have conflicting emotions, but Solaria's run only one way. They are neither as small-souled nor as small-minded as Solaria Cox.
Solaris's only use of her hest is to put a hat on it. Resolving to break away from her race completely, she lets her family knot just where she is and doesn't ever warn them that she is "passing". Any day a member of her family may innocently break in upon her and spoil her whole game. She lets an ignorant elevator boy extort 55 a week blackmail from her, something which she could have forestalled with a modicum of the intelligence. She even visits a colored family in Harlem in the company of white people, which for her was about as safe as jumping off Brooklyn Bridge. She tries to sneak over a marriage with a white man and condemn herself to a lifetime of terror. She was not nearly so intelligent as most of the race she designed.
Thus when dealing with Solaris Cox and the scenes of Norlo life the author seems to have depended upon hearray. The white characters and settings are drawn with a surer touch. The doll-baby Dell Findlay, the nymphomaniac Rita, the pouter-pigeon Oscar, the sucker Bernard and the snake Bell are all alive; the atmosphere and materials of the model's life have the air of reality. With all this material for a fine novel of the New York working girl's life and with such talent for presenting it, one wonders why the ashror should have bothered herself with a little toad like Solaris Cox "The White Girl" is a better novel of the New York model than it is of the race line.

TWO birds within one nest;
Two hearts within one breast;
Two spirits in one fair,
Firm league of love and pray:
Together bound for aye, together,
blest.
An ear that waits to catch
A hand upon the latch;
A step that hastens its sweet rest
to win.
A world of care without.
A world of strife shut out.
A world of love shut in.
