MEDICO 'DEBUTANTS' REPLACE VETERANS AT HARLEM HOSPITAL
Long Delayed Victory Tinged With Charges of Incompetence and Political Favoritism—Pioneers Among Victims.
Harlem Hospital was settling down to a normal existence yesterday following the most violent slaughter in the history of the institution's staff. The ousting of twenty-three white and two colored doctors was believed by many to be the most far-reaching political move in the history of the Department of Hos-
Woman Uses Lover's Gun to Slay Self After Shooting Man in Home Here
Melancholy, intensified by intoxication, was blamed by police for the shooting of Ross De Pitts, 34, of 196 Bradhurst avenue, by his sweetheart, Marie Murray, 27, of 462 West 151st street, and her suicide early Sunday morning.
EXTRA LOVE MAD POSTMAN, FATHER OF 2, SLAYS PARAMOUR AND SELF
Perhaps the most carefully and dramatically planned murder and suicide recorded in police annals took place yesterday at noon when a Harlem Federal employee, the father of two children, slew his paramour and fired a bullet into his own brain.
Clement N. Davis, 34, a letter carrier, employed for eight years at Station J, 309 West. 125th street, was the lover who played the roles of killer and suicide. The woman was Miss Jessie Robinson, 30, who had lived with him for the five weeks since he left Mrs. Davis and the children. The two were found locked together in death in their furnished room at 267 West 121st street, after the clamor of the tragic struggle had subsided.
Four bullets had been fired from the .32 automatic clutched by the man. Two leaden pellets were in the woman's body and another in her brain. A single shot in the left temple ended Davis' life.
The dead letter carrier was the husband of Mrs. Adelaide Davis, 207 West Sixty-third street. The family included two children.
Perhaps the most amazing feature of the double tragedy was the discovery of eight letters apparently written February 8. One to Mrs. Davis rebuked her for her alleged faithlessness to him and the children, which he blamed for his leaving his family. A will endowed the children with his pay, $50 in post office locker, insurance and other property. The wife was asked to make a better job of her family duties in the future. Another letter was written to J. G. Ottendorfer, superintendent of the station, in which the post office official was asked to aid the wife in obtaining whatever benefits are due her as a widow.
A third letter was to Mrs. Lulu A. Robinson, of Gardenville, Va.; she is supposedly the mother of Davis' paramour. Mrs. Robinson was told that her daughter failed in her task of making him happy. She was informed that the letter carrier meant to "put an end to it all."
The other letters were to relatives and friends of Davis in the West Indies. Patrolman Forrester of the West 123d street station was first on the scene. He summoned Dr. Freeman from Harlem Hospital, who pronounced the pair dead.
George Washington Had No Bed of Roses
JOHN B. HARRIS
THIS IS THE WEEK when every schoolboy would like to be in George Washington's place. He would like to have been the leader of a victorious army and first President of the United States. But when he grows up and learns more about George Washington's life he will change his mind. Washington, during the period in which he won his great fame, was probably the unhappiest man in America. Writers accuse him of a high temper and violent speech, but he had ample reason for them. The D. A. R. school of historians, in their effort to gild the past, have really detracted from Washington's achievements. They have depicted him as sweeping on from victory to victory against a determined foe, and backed by a united army of patriots eager to die for freedom. They give one no idea of the troubles that really beset Washington
FOR INSTANCE, the colonies were able to equip and support an army of 200,000 men, which would have kicked the British into the sea in six months. But the biggest force that Washington was ever able to get together was 10,000, and instead of burning for freedom most of them were burning to run away. In fact, many of them did. At one time fully one-fourth of this army broke into open mutiny. They were ragged, untrained and ready to run from their own shadows; in one battle they ran away when the British were about to surrender. At Yorktown there were only 7,000 Americans to 24,000 Frenchmen. If England had acted with half the energy and resolution that she showed in other wars ten months would have seen the Revolution crushed and Washington hanged.
DR. CHARLES A. BUTLER, whose efforts in behalf of Harlem's professional men have been rewarded with success.

her suicide early Sunday morning
WASHINGTON had to fight his own army as well as the British. His army was honeycombed with officers plotting to nullify his plans and his authority. He had to fight the Continental Congress, which refused to give him supplies or pay for his men. He had to fight even the American people. There was no excuse for the hardships at Valley Forge in a land 'teeming with riches. Instead of helping their own army the people sold food and clothing to the British army, which they could have starved out in three months by withholding their goods. Dollars meant more to them than liberty. Seven years of this changed Washington from a ruddy, chestnut-haired, youngish man to a gray-haired man old before his time.
The woman, after shooting her lover in the right side of his body, turned the gun upon herself. She died instantly from a bullet wound through her heart.
According to police, De Pitts visited the apartment of his flancee, on the third floor of the building at the 151st street address, late Saturday night. Tenants in the house said that almost immediately the two were heard quarreling, which continued for some time.
SUCH WERE his invincible will and courage that he won in spite of everything. He faced an almost impossible task and the greatest odds ever encountered by any man in American history. Lincoln, with all his troubles, had more than half the country behind him; Washington had hardly a fifth. Lincoln had a government that could compel the North to support him; in Washington's day there was no government. The more the American Revolution is studied, the greater George Washington appears.
A few minutes after midnight several shots rang out. They were heard by Detective William Ornstein who was standing outside the police station, at 152d street. On reaching the house and rushing to the apartment on the third floor, he found the Murray woman lying across a chair.

With poems of praise in many quarters for the placing of a u score of Nero medics in higher positions than they have held before at Harlem, muttertures of discontent and political dictation were heard in others. The recognition of Harlem's Negro population and its medical men was regarded in many circles as a victory for the press and organization which have demanded representation for the past five years. Veterans in Service Put Ont. Dr. J. G. William Greeff, commissioner of hospitals, made a sweeping reorganization of Harlem Hospital last Wednesday. Two veteran white men, Dr. Louis Friedman, senior visiting surgeon, with twenty-three years' service behind him, and Dr. Henry S. Pascal, a visiting surgeon for seventeen years, were ousted. The other white men removed included:
Dr. Arthur M. Shryd, former medical superintendent; Dr. W. A. Sornville, assistant visiting physician; Dr. Oswald M. La Rotonda, assistant visiting physician; Dr. M. Asterita; Dr. C. L. Anthony and Dr. Harry Vessel, out-patient physicians; Dr. I. O. Palofsk, gastro-enterologist; Drs. Louis Friedman, Henry S. Pascal, B. H. Bchoenberg and H. W.

Leniency of Judge Saves Man From Life in Prison
William Poppore, 30, of 22 Bunroft place, Brooklyn, was saved from spending the rest of his life in prison under the present Baumes law by Judge Alonzo McLaughlin, Kings County Court, Thursday. Poppore was permitted by Judge McLaughlin to plead guilty to a charge of petty larceny, although he was indicted for burglary. The burglary charge with his previous record would, under the Baumes law, have sent Poppore to prison for life. He was accused of having stolen a pair of trousers.

Roscoe Conkling Bruce Dropped From Dunbar National Bank's Directorate
Pioneer Board Member Fails to Be Re-elected Report of His Resignation as Resident Manager of Apartments Unfounded
Roscoe Conkling Bruce, resident manager of the Paul Lawrence Dunbar Garden Apartments, has been dropped as a director of the Dunbar National Bank, The Amsterdam learned Monday.
The report of the dropping of the financial institution's first Negro board member was verified by George E. Loomis, white, cashier of the bank. Mr. Loomis declined to make a formal statement, and merely presented the roster of the 1930 directors.
Two names were missing, that of Joseph N. Higgins, white, the late president, and that of Mr. Bruce. The action took place at the last meeting. No new directors were elected and there are two vacancies on the body of seventeen.
The remaining Negro directors are Alderman Fred R. Moore and Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute and president of the National Negro Business League.
BOYS HELD UNDER BOND IN KILLING OF GROCER
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Feb. 17 (ANP)
The three white boys arraigned in Middlesex Superior Court Monday, charged with the murder of Joseph Fendall, a grocer, Jan. 2, were held in bail of $50,000 each. They are Earl R. Baker, George A. Leet and Paul Smith.
"Rumor Unfounded" Says Heydt.
A current report that Mr. Bruce's resignation as resident manager of the Rockefeller housing project was to be forthcoming soon was declared to be without foundation by Charles O. Heydt, white, head of the Dunbar Apartments Corporation and personal representative of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., in the uptown concern.
"There is absolutely no truth in the rumor that Mr. Bruce has resigned, has been asked to resign or is expected to resign." Mr. Heydt said.
"I have not asked him for a resignation," he concluded.
Speculation Rife.

The Rev. and Mrs. I. W. Underhill, young missionaries recently sent from Philadelphia to the Presbyterian Mission in West Africa, write that the people whom they meet are much interested in the fact that the newcomers are colored.
One chief called a greeting from his garden on seeing them passing through his village: "Mbolo, my brother from across the seas, they tell me you are black people, but you do not look like it. Are you really?"
"Yes, indeed," Mr. Underhill answered.
CONVICTED HARLEM MAN SENTENCED AS "NUMBERS BANKER"
Rent Boost Rumor Hit by Landlords
Taxpayers' Association Denies United Plan for Increases
Current rumors stating that property owners in Harlem have started an extensive campaign to increase the rents of their tenants were vigorously denied and declared to be entirely false in a resolution adopted by the Upper Harlem Taxpayers' Association and made public by the secretary, A. A. Hamel, on Friday.
This association went on record as saying that "the officers, directors and members of the Harlem Taxpayers' Association are opposed to an indiscriminate increase of rent of tenants living in Harlem and vicinity."
The resolution further states that "we deny that there has been any general movement on the part of the members of this organization to raise rents, and it has always been the policy of this organization to advise our members to do everything in their power to improve the living conditions of their tenants." The Upper Harlem Taxpayers' Association has its headquarters at 209 West 145th street. Samuel D. Tomback is president of the organization.
Held in Burglary
Arraigned on suspicion of burglary last Wednesday in Harlem Court, Nick Borgos, 21, 207 East 102d street, was held in $2,000 bail for a further hearing by Magistrate McQuade. He was charged with stealing jewelry worth $300 from the home of Meyer Sandberg, white, 655 West 160th street.
Ignoreance being to Chief
"Well, then," continued the chief, eager to hear more, "What tribe are you?"
Mr. Underhill said he did not know, so far as human tribes are concerned.
"What!" the chief exclaimed, "didn't they write your tribe down in a book?" He was much perturbed even after Mr. Underhill explained that it was many generations ago that the slaves went to America, and that they were purposely separated as to tribes and even families, so that the children did not know their own original family or tribe.
County penitentiary.
Following that heavy salvo, the court sent a Harlem storekeeper to jail Monday on a charge of collecting the gambling slips. The merchant received four months for having seven slips in his possession. He wrote them obligingly for a policeman, according to the charge.
Fred Buchanan, 35, who was declared by police to have been a leader in the promotion of bets on the clearing house totals, was given the indefinite penitentiary term. Buchanan, who prefers to be called a laborer, was arrested Sept. 4 in an apartment at 364 West 193th street, a block popularly known as strivers' row.
Had 15,000 Slips.
Detectives Wittenberg and Benjamin of the Nineteenth Division declared they found 15,000 "policy" slips in the apartment. They also discovered, according to the testimony given the court, an adding machine, stamp pad, date stamp and other contrivances now associated with the "numbers" game.
In their original statements on the case the two officers declared they were offered bribes not to arrest Buchanan.
Held in the Twelfth District Magistrates' Court, Buchanan was sent to Special Sessions for trial. He pleaded not guilty Sept. 12 when arraigned in the higher tribunal. The man failed to appear for trial and his bail was declared forfeited on Dec. 16.
Haled Back to Court.
Returned to court on a warrant Feb. 3. he was held for trial two days later. The justices set $10,000 ball as the price for the prisoner's liberty for the forty-eight hours.
Buchanan was convicted on the officers' testimony.
A charge of possession of "policy" slips led to the undoing of Herbert Pender, 33, 308 West, 133d street, who was described as a merchant. Officer John E. Roberts of the Sixth Division arrested the man in his store last Aug. 24. Pender had two slips in his cash register, one in his hand and one on the counter, according to Roberts.
The court freed Pender of the first charge on his own recognizance. The defendant was sentenced to three months on the second count.

Martin, white, was named vice-president. This was the first time a Negro has been named to the body. Five years ago and longer The Amsterdam News was in the midst of the fight demanding entrance to the staff. Negroes with white men. This paper published blacks asking Mayor Hyllan for recognition in 1933. This step was in co-operation with the Citizens' Welfare Council of Harlem, of which Dr. Charles A. Butler was the head and moving spirit. At that time he was assisted by a corps of workers, who gathered petitions and forwarded them to the mayor. They also went to City Hall in delegations.
Connors Opposed Admitting Negroes. Despite the opposition of Dr. Connors and other medies who sat on the board of trustees of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, a place was created the clamor. Dr. James T. Granady, the Dr. Wight. Lucien Brown, the late Douglas B. Johnson and Ralph Young were named to the staff June 23, 1925. The men, however, were designated provisional adjunct assistant visiting surgeons and physicians. These were supplementary positions not held by white doctors.

was never granted, however, according to the ousted man. Dr. Friedman Interviewed. Dr. Friedman told the Amsterdam News that he found no fault with the appointee, but he was a Negro doctor, when asked for an expression Monday. He declared that he was among the first white men to advocate admission of Negroes. The leadership of the men, however, he did question. Dr. Friedman said that the appointee have the ability to do away with spilled staff men, but they are hampered by their chief. One of the charges made by Dr. Friedman after his complaint against Dr. Connors had been passed over was that the new staff was decided that last fall by Dr. William Shroder. Jr., then commissioned of hospitals.
Walter While, acting secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, issued a statement Friday in which it characterized the step as the most decisive thus far taken in any city of the United States for the recognition and giving of opportunity to Negro doctors and nurses, but the statement causes a rumor in the N. C. B. P. Board of Directors dinand Q. Morton, leader of the United Colored Democracy, and Dr. Wright, who is considered to be Morton's spokesman in the hospital. Whether the whole move was inspired by a sense of justice on the part of Mayor Walker and Dr. Greiff or not, it is known that most of the new staff men are Democrats and some are allied with Morton's United Colored Democracy. The change of heart of Dr. Connors is attributed in workers as the sacrifice of race feeling for retention of his post and authority. Medical Society Secretary Issues Statement.
Dr. Chas. A. Petioni, secretary of the North Harlem Medical Society, when approached on the subject of the changes, expressed himself as follows:
"There is no doubt that politics have been at the bottom of these changes, and in clear that Dr. Louis Wright has agreed to do with the Negro appointments, a fact which was suspected by many members of our society for some time past and which uniquely led to his presidency of the society.
"While the colored community may have reasons to congratulate themselves on the greater representation which the services at Harlem Hospital and on the medical board there. I feel that several appointments cannot be satisfactory to the majority of the colored doctors who either practice in the community or hold minor positions at the hospital."
"Further, the North Harlem Society as a body cannot be satisfied at the changes because even at the present time, the society has been awaiting work from commissioner in reply to representations made to him on behalf of the society in regard to the ousting of the hospital, and other matters. Dr. Louis Wright, as president of the society, was ex-officio member of that same committee, and although he was published, he was consulted on these matters he never consulted on civic either in consultation or in his confidence, nor even made them know that changes were imminent. Of course, more work was done I expressed the view that Dr. Wright would not move or less as he has since noted, which he promptly disclaimed. My ideas of the ethics of an officer and of the society is consequently at variance with his.
"As to the appointments proper, some are to be commended while in have been promoted several obscuries men of many against whom I have heard of no complaint. The appointment of the regiment of seniority and experience of personnel of the staff of Harlan Hospital, whether our patient or other members of the service, is determined to the morale of the service by the reputation of colored practitioners as a whole. "These inexperienced men will be

subject to the critical or hostile scrutiny of practitioners of the other race, who will lose no opportunity to exclude Negroes from such institutions.
"The outing of men of men like Nurse Amina and a man of the criminal penal promotion to many seniors in the outpatient department and the appointment of veritable tyros may result in agribilic trials or other measures on the part of the disgruntled men, which may militate against the reputation, already not the best, of the patient, and the security and confidence on the part of both the patients and the staff, which are essential to the carrying on of the practice, may be dissuade it. It may also discourage (as it has been doing in the past under the exclusive regime) men of intelligence, or self-respect and of independence when it is realized that such appointments may entail the resort to political influence and the exercise of such measures as would be necessary to
"On the other hand, with the inclusion of colored appointments in the obstetrics and pediatrics departments, we have a unique opportunity that the colored private practitioners will have greater entitley to care for patients in the hospital, patients, and thus have more satisfaction in the treatment of their patients.

Liquor Distilling Plant Falls in Hands of Harlem
Cops
Charges of tampering with a Consolidated Gas main in order to supply fuel for operating a still were heard against William Anderson, 32, and William Sherman, 34, 2855 Eighth avenue, when they were held in $500 bail each for a further hearing by Magistrate McQuade, sitting Friday in Harlem Court.
The two men are alleged to have rented the basement of the Eighth avenue address on Thursday night. They are charged with having used the place for the manufacture of liquor. When Detectives Roberts and Carter of Inspector McNeil's staff visited the apartment they found a fifty-gallon still in operation. This was being fired by a gas heater. Gas was being supplied the heated to means of a rubber tube attached a gas pipe, a connection of which had been removed, causing a free supply to flow through the tube.
Besides confiscating the still, the detectives also seized twenty-one barrels of mesh and a quantity of liquor. Anderson and Sherman were located at 1939 West 118th street and arrested. The barrels were charged with a violation of the Volstead act. This charge will be disposed of in the Federal District Court.

This is the third request for legislation authorizing an increase in the salary of the minister to Liberia that has been made of Congress. Two recommendations were made by President Coolidge.

Owner of 200-Acre Farm Near Tulsa Notified by Her Attorney of $13,000,000 Verdict —Husband a Truckman
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Feb. 17 (ANP).—Word has been received by Mrs. Mary Harris Wallace, 2928 Jarbore street, this city, that she has won a fortune of six and one-half million dollars as her share of a ten-year legal battle with the Texas Oil Company in the courts of Tulsa, Okla.
Mrs. Wallace learned of her wealth, she says, in a long distance telephone conversation with her lawyers in Tulsa. The total amount won from the oil company was thirteen millions of dollars, but by contract one-half of the sum went to the law firm which handled the case.
From 200-Acre Farm.
The wealth comes directly from a 200-acre farm just north of Tulsa, which was left to Mrs. Wallace by her grandmother, Mrs. Nancy Brown, who was three-fourths Indian.
According to Mrs. Wallace, the Texas company has been drilling on the farm for the past nineteen years and in that time has disputed her title and has paid no royalties. The sum which she receives is what the court judged she should have been entitled to over all the years.

Big Colored Laundry Plans to Relieve Unemployed
BELSTRAT PUSHES EXPANSION PROGRAM
To assist in relieving the general unemployment situation, Mr. David Doles, President of the Belstrat Laundry Company, Inc., located at 51 West 140th street, the largest colored laundry in Harlem, plans to double the capacity of their plant. The size of the building now owned by them will accommodate 250 employees, while only 65 are employed regularly now.
Mr. Doles intends to conduct an educational campaign throughout Harlem to acquaint the general public with the facts as they affect the laundry business. He says that in spite of the fact that they are the largest colored laundry in Harlem, they are doing less than 10 per cent of the business actually available in this section.
At least 10,000 bundles of Laundry are taken out of Harlem every week by "foreign" laundries, enough to provide regular employment for over 500 people. The Belstrat Laundry can easily double or triple its present capacity, give better quality and lower prices than its competitors, and employ three times the number of people, if the public will co-operate.

It will be your means of showing Mr. Doles and his associates your appreciation for the wonderful work they are doing.

Search Continues For Woman Slayer
Search Continues For Woman Slayer
Grace Trent Gets Fatal Shot in Hallway of Her Home
Police continued their search in Harlem yesterday for Scott Vincent, address unknown, suspected slayer of Grace Trent, 36, 108 West 141st street, who was shot to death in the hallway of her home late on the night of February 11.
The shooting which resulted in the death of the woman occured in a hallway on the second floor of the apartment house at about 10:45 p. m. After shooting his victim in the left side, the slayer made good his escape.
Tenants in the house aroused by the slayer, Patchettman James Smith of the West 135th street station. He, in turn, summoned Dr. Levine of Harlem Hospital, who attended the wounded woman. Medical aid, however, was of no avail and she died at the scene of the tragedy at 11:05 p. m.
Police are searching for him because he is known to have been a former sultor of hers and it is thought that the murder may have been the result of a feaulous rage. Detectives Connell and Nelson of the West 135th street station are working on the case.
The murdered woman was revealed to be the estranged wife of Albert Trent, archbishop of Philadelphia. This case was disclosed when Trent came to the city on Thursday to claim the body at the City Morgue. He returned with the body to Philadelphia on Friday afternoon. Duncan Brothers were the undertakers who handled

Iuge Motor Transportation Project To Begin New York Operation March 1
Hamilton and Peters to Employ 650 Men in New Plant—Two Began Downtown as Chauffeurs With Private Autos
What is probably the most gigantic motor transportation venture projected by Negroes will begin here March 1, when the hamilton and Peters Operating, Inc., begins operation of a new set of 250 taxicabs. The firm's new quarters and cars will present an investment of $620,000. The operation will require a total of 650 men.
The project is being advanced by William H. Peters and Samuel Hamon, who have been operating for 50 years as Rite Rate Taxi Corporation at 306 West 143d street. There is fifty-one cabs in their old fleet of heckers and 120 men are employed. The new corporation has purchased garage of 100 by 200 feet at 1 East 61th street. Deliveries of the 250 new fourth avenue, Corona, L. I. Both are fraternal men, Mr. Hamilton being a member of Imperial Lodge of Elks, and Mr. Peters a member of Celestial Lodge of Prince Hall Masons.
The two have always made a practice of distributing their cabs throughout the city. The new cars will also be operated in the entire five boroughs, they state.
The operators have planned for free insurance for their employees in the new firm. Under their old corporation their drivers organized the Harlem Chauffeurs' Benevolent Association, Inc.
Porto Rican Dies Following Murder
Man Stabs Wife to Death and Leaps to Doom From Window
Following the fatal stabbing by him of his wife, Aliga, during a quarrel, Victor Mahina, 28, a Porto Rican, of 12 East 115th street, calmly sat down and wrote a note to his father, after which he jumped five stories from a window in his apartment to the street last Wednesday night.
He died three hours later in Harlem Hospital.
Mahina was found lying on the sidewalk by Patrolman Bernard Rogers of the East 104th street station, who was summoned by passersby. He carried the injured man to Harlem Hospital in a taxicab and then returned to the house to investigate the attempted suicide.
Forcing his way into the apartment, the patrolman found the woman dead on the kitchen floor with seventeen stab wounds in her body. A kitchen knife, with which it is thought Mahina stabbed his wife, was found in a bed in the apartment. The note was addressed to Mahina's father and was written illegibly in Spanish and English. It asked that the father take care of the Mahinas' two-year-old child.

Jersey Communists. Face Twenty-Year Sentences
With a resurrected ancient statute invoked against them, eight men and a girl faced possible sentences of twenty years after being arrested in Newark last Wednesday on "advocating by speech hostility and destruction to the government of New Jersey."
The men, seven of whom are white, were held in $10,000 ball each for the Grand Jury when arraigned Thursday in Judge Albano's court. The white girl held was 17 years old. The nine were taken in a raid directed against Communists.
Dozer Graham, 60, 173 Spruce street, Newark, was the only non-white member of the group arrested when Police Chief James R. McRell directed his forces against leaders at a meeting of the Trade Unity League.
Homeless Man Held On Robbery Charge
Holdup Victim Also Lays Slashing to Accused in Complaint
Joseph Leon, 30, no home, was held without bail for a further hearing when arraigned Saturday before Magistrate Vitale in Washington Helights Court on a charge of assault and robbery.
Leon is charged with robbing Raymond Rivero, owner of a cigar store at 2255 Seventh avenue, of $70 in cash and his overcoat after slashing him with a knife on the head and face.
Rivero told the police that he was alone in his store when Leon entered and asked for a free cigar. He followed Rivero to the rear of the store and there demanded his money, threatening to kill him with an open knife, the complainant charged. Rivero stated that Leon then cut him on the head and face and robbed him of his overcoat and $70 he had in his pocket.
The assailant escaped after the assault and robbery which occurred. A short time later Leon was located at 135th street and Seventh avenue, and arrested by Detective Follak of the West 123d street station. He was identified by Rivero, the police say.
ADVISES AGAINST NEGRO POLITICAL PARTY
BOSTON, Mass., Feb. 17 (ANP)—Congressman Oscar DePriest of Chicago declared in an address at the Old South Church Forum, Sunday afternoon, that "a Negro political party would be in a hopeless minority and without influence." Although he is a staunch Republican, the Congressman advised that colored voters, when numerous in a community or district, should vote together regardless of parties. "Under wise leadership this method should give them the balance of power. Vote for the candidate most likely to stand for your rights as Negroes," he urged.

Police Investigate Woman's Death: Iceman Who Gave Her Wine Arrested
End Comes After Drinking Beverage Offered in Apartment House Basement - City Chemist Analyzes Some of Potion
A few minutes after drinking half a glass of wine given to her by Mauro Tedone, white, iceman living at 1411 Longfellow street, Bertha Fisher, 29, of 60 West 139th street, died Thursday night while medical aid was being rushed from Lincoln Hospital.
According to the police the woman came to the Longfellow address in the late afternoon to visit John Puyatt, 30, who is superintendent of the building. Puyatt was out and Miss Fisher decided to wait for him in the basement. While there, Tedone, who is married and the father of six children, came to the basement to draw some wine for family use.
He is said to have given the woman the wine from one of four fifty-gallon containers kept by him there after

Harlem's elite, along with seven thousand others, chose Rockland Palace, 155th street and Eighth avenue, on Friday evening as the scene of an evening's revel of unique amusement. The occasion was the annual masquerade ball given by Hamilton Lodge, Inc., No. 710 of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows. As usual, this ball provided an opportunity for that portion of the city's male population whose one and greatest secret ambition is to imitate the female by donning the most gorgeous of feminine attire. Costumes which, for their sheer magnificence, would make a Follies beauty envious were worn by the masqueraders, many of whom found it extremely difficult to confine their husky and muscular bodies in their dainty French evening gowns.
The climax of the ball was the parade before the judges for the awarding of the prizes offered for the most unique and distinctive costumes worn. Gene Mallin, George Denny and Francis Dunn were the three

Music was furnished by the John C. Smith orchestra and the massive ballroom floor was crowded by spectators and masqueraders, who paid the $1.50 admission fee, until the early hours of the morning. A slight damper was put on the revels of the dancers by the appearance of a woman dressed in flowing robes of white carrying a Bible held in an attitude of warning and prophecy. Whether this was a part of the masquerade or a sincere effort to warn "sinners," the audience was not quite sure, and soon the white-robed figure was swallowed up in the vast crowd and as quickly forgotten. The ball was marked this year by an absence of the usual brawls which often follow such affairs, and was attended by some of Harlem's most prominent lawyers, physicians, artists, writers and teachers.

A few minutes later a friend of Miss Fisher's, whom the police could identify only by the name of Florence, entered the apartment. The woman rose to meet the new arrival and collapsed almost immediately. She was carried to a bedroom by Puyatt and police of the Simpson street station were called. Policeman Conpolly arrived and a few minutes later an ambulance arrived from Lincoln Hospital. The woman was pronounced dead by Dr. Litvak.
Both Tedone and Puyatt were questioned by Detectives Raze and Bengston and the arrest of the iceman followed by Policemen Hickey and Ross of the Simpson street station. The wine remaining in the tumbler was taken to the city chemist for analysis.

Bordentown School To Give Concerts
With the appearance of the school's band, glee club and male quartette at the Englewood High School on Thursday, March 13, the music department of the Manual Training and Industrial School in Bordentown begins the tenth annual presentation of these programs to New Jersey audiences. Other concerts will follow at Plainfield, Montclair, Newark, Jersey City and Atlantic City during the four weeks following.
In his announcement of these concerts for 1930, Principal W. R. Valentine states that probably 50,000 persons have listened to the spring programs by the band, glee club and quartette during the past ten years without counting approximately double that number who have heard the glee club alone.
In all these years the concerts have been under the charge of Fred J. Work, director of the glee club and head of the music department of the school. Practically all of the folk music of the school has his own arrangement or composition. Associated with Mr. Work on the program are Alex M. Valentine, teacher of band music and director of the popular boy's band. Mr. Valentine is in his first year at Bordentown, but has already brought his group up to the point where it carries on the best traditions of the department. He is the leader of the quartette, just as he has done for the past twelve years, with Edward Whitely, John Wilson and Moses Black as the student members.
Miss Florence Owens, who delighted audiences last year with her interpretation of the Reading role in the play, will appear a year on the program in three solo numbers, as it is now planned. James Boxwill as a baritone soloist, Miss Anna Sharpe as accompanist, and Leonard DePear as tenor soloist, are other members of the student group will claim individual attention.

Declaring that race prejudice was not the biggest factor in the unemployment situation among Negroes T. Arnold Hill, industrial secretary of the National Urban League, delivered an address to the Community Forum in Englewood on Sunday afternoon. The real reason, says Mr. Hill, is almost purely economic and arises from conditions over which we as a group have no means of control. The matter of prejudice does have to be the fastest to add that "Negroes who have any one thing well need ever fear lack of employment." The bulk of unemployment rests upon the unskilled class or that group who can do "anything" and not "any one thing well."

How Do These New Refrigerators Work?
The increasing use of gas and electric refrigerators is producing many questions about their operation. This is a non-technical explanation of the process, says the New York State Committee on Public Utility Information.
Cold is the absence of heat. Withdrawing heat from something makes it cold.
Certain chemicals used as refrigerants change readily from liquids to gases and, through this process of expansion, absorb heat. When such a liquid or refrigerant is allowed to expand in the chilling unit of a refrigerator, it absorbs this heat from the refrigerator food space, and the humidity in the air is depicted on the outside of the chilling unit in the familiar form of snow or frost. The gasified refrigerant cannot come into the food space, but remains within the metal chilling unit.
Repetition or continuation of this process cools the refrigerator to the desired temperature, at which it is automatically kept. To make the process continuous and use a small quantity of refrigerant over and over it is necessary to change the gasified refrigerant back to liquid and remove the heat which it has absorbed from the inside of the refrigerator. In electric refrigerators this whole process is accomplished by means of a compressor and air cooling. In gas refrigerators it is done by first absorbing the gasified refrigerant in an absorber from which it is driven by a tiny gas flame. It is then condensed to liquid, which flows by gravity back to the chilling unit, where it again expands and continues its cooling process.
WHY do girls often have to drive a man out of their lives before they realize that they want him? Often it's too late, for the man may have become interested in another, or his interest in another is at least sufficient not to give the former sweetie another chance.
Don't be too hasty in giving your boy friend the air. Remember that if you should change your mind and want him back, you'll probably have to do all the chasing and your feelings are likely to be hurt.
Dear Heartbroken:
The man is probably losing interest in you. When he was serious you weren't and now he doesn't know how to take you. You say you were to get married this month, but that he doesn't say anything about it. Well, then, why don't you? Heaven! you ought to show a little interest and if you really care for him, it shouldn't be any task.
Let him know that you are really planning on being married this month. If he has changed his mind, it will be too bad—but perhaps he hasn't; and it's up to you to find out. No. The Amsterdam News has not a "Lonely Hearts" Column" and is not in favor of one. Luck to you. EGYPSY ANN.

SATURDAY, February 22, is the birthday anniversary of George Washington. For some housewives it will be just another holiday; for others, an opportunity to have a party or luncheon at which time artistic decorations of red, white and blue should be used. To each of your guests, if you are having a luncheon or party, you should give a neatly printed card on which may be the following stanzas: When in my youth I told the truth it never occurred to me.
That boys and girls in time to come
Would hear of that cherry tree.
(George Washington)
Though my race was not the same,
I bore the illustrious name.
And I tried to teach my people
That to labor is no shame.
(Booker T. Washington)
Your refreshments may consist of
creamed chicken on toast, served
with pimento garnishings on blue
plates, star and bell-shaped sand-
wiches, a patriotic ice, and coffee.
Wooden Handle Problem
WHEN placing your coffee percolator over the gas flame, be careful to keep the wooden handle out of range of the flame itself. Then you will have trouble replacing burned handles that have warped from excessive heat.
Pinching Shoes
If you are ever compelled to wear a shoe that hatches, try this: A folded cloth dipped in hot water and laid over the offending part will at once afford relief. By changing the cloth a few times to keep up the heat, in a few minutes the leather or kid shoe will shape to the foot. Rub a little sweet oil on before polishing; you will have no more trouble.
Are Your Pearls Discolored?

TRY this method to clean your pearls. If they are discolored or very dirty. Soak pearls in hot water and rinse them. Wash them with a little cream of tartar, rubbing them gently between the hands. When the water is cold, renew the application. Wash pearls in lukewarm water, lay the pearls on white paper in a dark place

Every one of our Girl Scout Troops was well represented in the Girl and Boy Scout Really by the 300 uniformed Girl Scouts who filed into the auditorium of P. S. 136, Friday evening. The cheers, songs and stunts of the girls were enough to make those Boy Scouts sit up and take notice. The Boy Scouts' acts gave songs and stunts, too, and demonstrations of knot-tying and first aid. The next big event for us Girl Scouts is the Song Contest. It will be lots of fun with plenty of work such as Girl Scouts love. The winner in this district will have a chance to compete for the cup provided for the best singing troop in Manhattan. The first rehearsal is to be on next Wednesday in the auditorium of the Y. W. C. A. at 6:45 p. m. The following troops have already entered: Nos. 190, 155, 151, 142, 126, 121, 93, 91 and 51. Others are invited to join.
Scouts are invited to Join Miss Eugenie Davidson and the Junior Astrologists on the first trip to the Museum of Natural History on Saturday. March 1. Groups will meet at the Urban League at 7 p. m. or at the Museum at 7:45. Learn about the stars; you may find out which is your lucky one. There will be swimming Monday at the X. W. at 4 o'clock.

Household Hints
TO clean enamel were use a paste of salt and vinegar.
Have your home laundress fold your tablecloths three times lengthwise before any cross folding is done. Thus the ugly hump in the center of the cloth will be avoided and the linen will set smoother and better.
To remove grease from the collar of a fur cont, rub it with sea sand as hot as you can stand it. Put the sand in a pan in the oven until it is hot.
Old underwear makes fine polishing clothes for windows and silverware.
If you have to change the cover on your ironing board, don't take it off. Just haste another one right on top. When it is done and smooth. Pieces of old sheets are good to use for covers. Cut empty cereal boxes into pieces an inch by two inches. Keep in the kitchen drawer, and use to scrape grave dishes.

Again Konjola Gives Proofs Of Its Merits
"I Feel Twenty Years Younger," Exclaims Delighted Resident of Harlem.
After all, what better, stronger proof of a medicine's necessity than have put the medicine to the test, and who know what this medicine has specially done.

Konjola, the medicine of $2 ingredients—22 of them the juices of roots has proved its merits in so many thousands of cases that the name Konjola has been used for thousands of American homes. Would you know how Konjola works? Would you know that Konjola is enthusiastic over konjola for her? But just all the facts about Konjola from Konjola. Man nearest you. There is a street and another at the Hanover drug street and Broadway. New York City, and another at the Hanover drug street and Broadway. New York Brooklyn. They will tell you all about Konjola, but right now read the words of a Dillon, who said to a Konjola Man.
"In three weeks' time Konjola did for me what all else I tried in five years. My stomach was badly out of order, but I never seemed to be coming and pain," was always constipated, and finally rheumatism set in. The pain in my legs was so bad that many of the people had to stop and went on walk. It had to spend most of the time in bed getting my housework go. I had lost fifteen pounds, and was miscrabled all over. I was discouraged, too, for medicines are not good. My friend who came to visit me told me about Konjola, and I determined to see it this medicine was as good as people said in the week. My case certainly proved the worth in my case in three weeks the rheumatoid pains were gone; my stomach acted normally and the constipation was relieved. I feel twenty years of life. My new病 was now now. Now my husband, who has rheumatism, is taking Konjola, after seeing what this splendid medicine did for me. Konjola does work quickly. Many recalls of reliefs did Mrs. Dillon, very a treatment of from six to eight bottles is strongly recommended, especially where suffering has covered a period of years.

When I started exposing the police and their doings I didn't expect to receive any compliments from them. I knew just what I was doing, and I know what I am doing now. I shall never stop exposing the Police until they stop this terrible mistreatment of the Negro race. I don't understand how these police, who are supposed to be the protection of the people, can make so for so-called police. Some men are paring of the people. If it is necessary I can, and I am willing to back up this statement by calling the name and the badge number of the persons in question, and I can also prove it by witnesses.
I began to fight for you all since 1919. During which time I fought against the raise of your rents. In 1921 I didn't take any active part. During 1922-1923 I fought against unlegal dispositions before Mayor Hyland. I came out victorious. From the end of 1923 to 1928 I raised the raise of one again, made me feel more confident. Since about the raise of statement I made, He did what he promised me he, would do to help the situation. I came out successful on every complaint. Records and letters will prove all that I have said. So this is not my first fight for you folks.
Now I have been fighting the mighty Police since 1928, and I don't know when it will end.
I wish to compliment Lamar Perkins on the stand he has taken in the case of the office. If he can do so much in six weeks, why can't these men that have been in office for one or two years do something? Let us hope Lamar Perkins will be an inspiration to these men who have a chance to do something and haven't done anything.

Motion Picture Operators at War
Silent Figures Carry Appeal at Reopening of New Lincoln Theatre
Like the silent figures who patrolled No Man's Land on those cold, bitter nights, sentinels keeping their vigil so that armies could carry on the fight for that elusive thing called Democracy, which Negroes are yet to enjoy, be their lot cast in the land swayed by fakirs whose shibboleth of Americanism seldom if ever includes their kind or natives of Haiti, Liberia, the Virgin Islands or those other lands where dark faces predominate. The Motion Picture Operators' Union created the theater on the 1838 street with pickets last Saturday afternoon. The house, after remaining dark for many months, threw its doors open with a program of talking pictures, and the booth, the operators claim, was the theater's workhorse, said that negotiations were in progress between the operators forming the union and the management, but it was later discovered that those running the house would have nothing to do with the theater and decided to operate their motion picture booth on an open shop basis.
From a house which gave to this section of Harlem the inspiration for bigger things in the world of the theatre the New Lincoln apparently fell into a sensational occurrence of some time back when an actress, feeling aggrieved at what she considered unfair treatment at the hands of the management then under the personal direction of Mrs. Maris. Downs, who, the present president of the once famous little Nickollee, suddenly appeared on the stage and told her story to the audience.
Early in the late World War the Lincoln was also the scene of a tribute to the heroic response upon the part of the police reserves, and when the tabloid form of entertainment along with pictures was copied from the Lincoln under Mrs. Downs and enlarged and placed upon Seventh avenue, it have spelt the doom of the little house.
Taken over by the Leo Brecher interests under the guidance of Frank Manion and steered the fayette Theatre, it was thought that the house would enter upon a new lease of life which would find it returning to that popular fancy district, and should succeed in its existence, but failure was the recompense of those trying to make a go of it.
No official notification of the planned reopening, it is said, and which found it unable to succeed, as it failed to receive any, was sent to the local newspapers, hence it was cause for deep surprise when courtiers brought back the news of another fight against nero, lasted the same union which enlivened Seventh avenue by pickets carrying banners telling of the previous battle against nero, and lasted the fight was over of great interest to the community, and while the theatre against which it was primarily staged apparently did not suffer because of the attendance, the operators won; the battle found its way into the courts.
It is hard to predict at this time just what will be the outcome of the battle and, as many state, the "moneyed interests," but the union is just as determined to wage their silent battle against the police. If one is to judge by the grim determination displayed by the pickets silently patrolling the street famed in the city, it is in this section of the city. The management, no doubt versed in the ways of such fights, seems equally determined to operate under police protection.
Whitman Sisters Score Again at the Lafayette
The revue which will be the Whitman season is being presented at the Lafayette Theatre this week to capacity audiences, which are as appalled as the good dancing and singing stage entertainment at the popular Seventh avenue theatre.
Much is always expected of the most famous women producers on the stage, and they are said to their credit that they have never disappointed an audience. The revue which they are presenting this week is different from that which we offered at the Whitman Lafayette Theatre when the Whitman sisters appeared there about six weeks ago. The only point of interest is that most of the able members of the cast which presented the first show are appearing this week in new songs, new dances, new comedy and new end and more gorgeous costumes.
All four of the famous Whitman Sisters appear with the company, Bert Bert, both as comedians and dancers; Bess in a film, dramatic song, and infeatible Mae in a surprise number, which brought a storm of applause at the opening of the Whitman School of Princess Wee Wee, the five singing masters of the ukelele, Sambo, Crack Shot and Hack Back, the funny comedian, and an other equally talented entertainer in the cast. The photoplay program for the wk includes as its feature the heart-touching talking picture version of David Belasco's great stage play "Tiger Rose." Monte Blue and Lupa Velcz are the stars.

'Dynamite' and 'Hallelujah'
At the Odeon Theatre
Gecii B. De Mille's first all-talking dramatic sensation. "Dynamite," will be the feature attraction at the Odeon Theatre on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Viphane has brought marvelous shinging and dancing productions to the screen, but never a drama so gripping, so breathless, so romantic as "Dynamite." Gecii B. DeMille became one of foremost directors by his production of the mandments and "The King of Kings." "Dynamite" adds immeasurably to his fame and places him in the front rank of producers of great talking pictures.
No picture which has ever been produced has aroused as much comment as "Hallelujah," King Vidor's mighty drama of the Negro race. During its run on Broadway and the Lafayette Theatre in Harlem the film's success this picture began, which has not yet subsided. During the past few weeks the motion picture Board of Review listed "Hallelujah" as one of the ten greatest pictures released during the period of the greatest pictures of all time.
Nina Mae McKinney and Daniel Haynes have a large and capable cast of colored stars in this mighty drama. "Halleluja" will be presented at the Tate for four days only beginning Tuesday for the first time, probably be the last opportunity that

He is more as a daughter of gay "Parrot."
Lincoln Theatre Reopens
The Lincoln Theatre at 1338 street east of Lenox avenue is the last of Harlem's theatres to succumb to talkiness. The Lincoln opened last Saturday as a talking picture theatre, equipped, according to the announcement of the new owner, with the very latest talking picture equipment. Mr. Harlem Stern, who though new to Harlem, is one of the ablest of exhibitors. Mr. Stern was formerly in control of a large chain of theatres (last year). He announces that his tentative plans call for three different programs a week—to be changed on Saturday. Tuesday and Thursday. These programs include the best objectionable picture shows as well as comedies, news events and the latest and most entertaining of talking, singing and dancing novelties. On Thursday and Friday the feature picture picture, be the Crimson Clan of Harlem. On Saturday and Monday the theatre will present "The Song of Love" starring Belle Baker.
"Jellybeans" Drops In
"Jellybeans" Johnson, known to his friends as "Chick," was a caller at the office of the Amsterdam News last week. He has just signed a contract with the Fox Film people for two years, and left for Hollywood, where he will be working with Robert Polles of 1830. Johnson hopes to find time after his labors to return to the Big City where he can spend some time with his many friends.
"Navy Blues" and "Hell's Heroes" at the Roosevelt
"Hell's Heroes," the remarkable and unique drama of "life in the raw," is coming to the Roosevelt's talking screen this Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Feb. 22, 23 and 24, as a national television series. This sensational story is based on Peter B. Kynes's novel "Three Godfathers," and its plot deals with the reactions of three western bad men when they find themselves with a new-born baby on their hands in the desert. William Haines, who learned baseball, football and nearly every other sport to play the roles in his pictures, becomes a hard-fighting, cunning, loving and fast-stepping rob in his life. "Bluez," which will be shown at the Roosevelt Tuesday to Friday, Feb. 25, 26, 27 and 28.
"Navy Blues," in spite of its title, is not an out-and-out comedy, some of the most unusual situations in film, and the cast includes Anito Page, Karl Dane and J. C. Nugent.
Twin Bill at the Lafayette Theatre
Irvin C. Miller's latest revue, "Say It With Girls" and the spectacular movie "Hollywood Revue," will be shown at the Lafayette Theatre next week.

THE HARLEM
SKETCH BOOK
BY THEOPHILUS LEWIS
EVERY Tuesday night hundreds of Harlemites meet The Amsterdam News delivery wagons at the newstands. Many of them read the paper from front page to editorials before going to bed. If you are one of the eager hundreds you have probably reached this page considerably before midnight. I hope it isn't raining. I also hope you have a dollar or so in the house that you don't have to care for the wagons. If you have pick up your hat and pick up your flat and beat it around to the Lafayette Theatre where they're giving a swell benefit performance for the Florence Mills Memorial Fund. The show begins at midnight.
Not a One-Night Stand
THE benefit is sponsored by the FF Association. This organization deserves more than your support; it deserves you one night, but from now on. The FF Association is the organization that the Directors of the organization believe the fame of Florence Mills alive is to institution dedicated to the welfare of A part of its program has already been forgotten by laws could be unearthed, or organizations have degenerated into disf Some of them are not even disguised.

THE benefit is sponsored by the Florence Mills Theatrical Association. This organization deserves your support. It deserves more than your support; it deserves your interest. Not only for this one night, but from now on. The Florence Mills Theatrical Association is a nonprofit organization. The directors of the organization believe that the best way to keep the fame of Florence Mills alive is to associate her name with an institution dedicated to the welfare of members of her profession. A part of its program has already been realized. Real estate has been acquired, recreation rooms are being maintained and a fund is being created to support the organization. I am aware that this program is not highly original. Doubtless there are other theatrical organizations which, if their dusty and forgotten by-laws could be unearthed, could show that they started out with the welfare of the profession at heart. Most of these organizations have degenerated into disused crap shooting clubs, and the organization has been unable to maintain its Association is still young. It has not had time to stray far from its original praiseworthy plans. I am also aware that it is easy to find flaws in the Association's program, even when that program is presented at its best. One might suggest that instead of maintaining recreation rooms the Association should have more rooms for themselves. One might add that when an actor works twenty-one performances a week, as most colored performers do, what he needs when his daily stint is done is not a recreation room, but a bedroom. In short, what the colored actor most needs is not a fraternal and benevolent organization, but a place where he can work for any group is the kind of organization that group is able to bring into existence. A class, Openerheim says, is never wrong.
Laymen Should Lend a Hard
WHAT the Association has accomplished so far is nothing to grow excited about. I am not even enthused by glowing reports of what it proposes to do. The greatest usefulness of the organization lies in its unexpressed potentialities. That is why I say the public should drive the Association something more than casual financial support. I should like to see the public represented in its management. A couple of laymen and at least one liberal preacher should on its board direct their attention to the Association's endeavors in affairs of the Association would guarantee wholesome internal conditions. Non-theatrical members on the Board might exert a still more important influence on the progress of the organization. They might induce it to enlarge its strictly professional policy to include a cultural program.

So far as I know, the present heads of the Association have not been able to meet Florence Mills, who I hold that it should be one of the biggest items on their program. Florence Mills did not win the affection of millions by engaging in wooing her. The most important of Florence's lovers loved her because she brought joy into their lives and made their journey through this drab world a little brighter. No fitting memorial to her can be dedicated solely to the welfare of Florence Mills, because she is one of the millions of laymen who loved Florence Mills it will be falling short of its full duty to the sainted soul it seeks to honor.

Since those theatres are operated by the same firm that holds a lease on the Lincoln, would not be good for the theatre, it would not be good to pack the aggregate movie audience of Harlem into two houses to divide it among three. As a dramatic theatre the Lincoln would not be in competition with other professional movie audiences. Should we build a house for a very reasonable figure, I believe that for a short time he might even let a struggling group have the theatre for an amount that would just cover the operating expenses. It would be a good deal all around if the Association of actors' repository theatre, coating its plays with unemployed performers and presenting them in the house that is now going to waste.

NEEDLESS to say the theatre would not be a pay-off from the start. There is an ample dramatic audience in Harlem, but it is very skeptical. Negro actors spend so much of their energy in the theater that Moral and African-American women will be convinced they cannot do anything worthwhile. It will take time to convince them, and for the first few months it will hardly be necessary to call on the reserves to handle the crowds storming the box office. The venture would require astute showmanship, diligent business management and absolute square dealing both with the audience and with the audience's patience. Given these qualities, it ought to beat a blank right from the jump. At first the companies would be casted only with performers out of work, soon as an actor obtained engagement he should be dropped from the stage. Taking care was unemployed. This plan, honestly carried out, would tend to ease the employment situation. It would also afford performers an opportunity to discover their true talents. If they were there is too much wasted ability. Nina McKinney work in "Halleluja" stamped her as a sterling actress. As a revue hoofer and singer she is mediocre at best. It is said that Celeste Colos knows the leading female roles of five operas. That is too much talent to be wasted singing in night clubs reckoning with gin tums and tobacco smoke. The audience would not be cheated of the pleasure they are able to give. Let's see the Florence Mills Association make a move to give both a break.
Plays Are Plentiful
FORMERLY it it was a question where suitable plays for a Negro repertory theatre could be obtained. It is still a problem, but by no means as acute as it once was, "the season of ten weeks," could be obtained. "Bobo," "Bobo," "God's Chillum Got Wings," "Lulu Belt," "Harlem," "God's Alley" and "Rose." In the meantime writers like Frank Wilson and Arna Bontemps could be working on new pieces. Heba Jannahn has a new play, "The Woman in the Garden," a ten-weeks if she had an incentive. Then there is Jesse Shipp. Perhaps there's one more good plot in the old stage master.

Stepping Stones to Broadway
A WIDEWAKE actors' theatre outgone to Broadway both for performers would be especially true when native writers in dramatic form. I do not hesitate to enterprise gets under way it will be a little theatre downtown. Just as big a little theatre would intervene in drama, downshadow uptown. Since the alliance between Broadway still becoming stronger, so that this way is next season's feature on the stage, could serve as a training school for acclaimed actors.

A WIDEWAKE actors' theatre ought to be a first class stopping stone to Broadway both for performers and productions. This would be especially true when native writers began to uptheir ideas dramatic form. I do not hesitate to prophesy that an immersive show would end undoubtedly show scouts down downtown. Just as big commercial managers raid the little theatres for novelties in drama, they would exploit a sun-down showship uptown.
Since the alliance between Broadway and Hollywood is constituting strong soils, this shows it is on the White Way is next season feature on the screen, an actors' repertory theatre could serve as a training school for the talkers. I can imagine Nina Mae McKinney, starred in a one week melodrama by Frank Wilson, carried downfortown for a fifty-week run, followed by a season of the same piece sweeping the hinterland. Miss McKinney is happily to see them there than I am. But in between Broadway I see them entertaining and inspiring their own people with their art.
Farmers have abandoned the one-crop system of agriculture. It is time for the Negro theatre to scrap the one-type system of entertainment. Nobody wants to see JoBoynards more than four times a year. I people will see them entertaining. The same goes for scores of other one-gag comedians, one-step抖ors and one-wiggle women. Variety is more than the spice life. It is the life of the theatre. If the Florence Mills Association can produce a greater variety of amusement its work will still come under the heading of advancing the welfare of the profession.

SPIKING THE GAME OF STAGE DOOR JOHNS
The Leading Lady of "Watermelon Dreams" Knew Her Stuff
By Buster Brinkley
WHEN "Sloth" Johnson entered the Bayside Theatres his was not an impersonal visit. He came with the desire of again "looking 'em over," making his third and final stage to meet the lady of his desires.
An acquaintanceship covering a period of many years with the stage manager and manager of the theater ever he came to the stage door—and that was often. Tonight he was somewhat indisposed and he sought relaxation in trying to see if the comedians knew him.
"Sithth" had a peculiar sense of relaxation. He imagined that anything on the stage but the chorus and good music he heard, he thought, would that he had time to relax from the primal object of his visit, which was to find a member of the show into whose ears he could pour his almost time-worn tale of the war, and the story of twenty-four hours in the day. The comedians failed to make "Sithth" like it and his indisposition gave him a dance to go over in his mind ground and time, and of thinking after he wined and did the dance, hours which did not bring him soulache. The leading lady of "Dead Cool Papa" the week previous had failed to come out of thinking after he wined and did the dance, weeks run of the show; to say nothing of having her as his companion in his flashy roadster time after time on the principal streets of the Big Town. Suddenly he woke from his reveries with a start. Cymbals crashed, the orchestra blared forth with a snapple tune before "Sithth" and the audience fully relaxed for the few pieces of gauze which was winked at and accepted as "clothes" when a wily lawyer the week before had been brought up on a charge of doing a questionable dance—minus
"Sixth" hastily beckoned an usher and asked for the name of the show. This was the name of the show, entered his mind weekly, as insisted that all the musical comedies were the same with the exception of the people who found out that he was viewing "Watermelon Dreams" while gazing on Mme Osgood, who was the featured personality with the production, which was (Continued on Fifteenth Pages).

Many Suggest Negro Playlets
Rumor of Frank Wilson Presenting His Shows Here Not Confirmed
A rumor was rife in theatrical circles last week that Frank Wilson, late star of the Guild success "Forgy," had succeeded in inducing the management of a local playhouse to present a series of his splendid playlets, some of which had already found homes at the hands of auditors in Harlem. While what is being presented along this line of entertainment here discloses from time to time something among the number to hold the attention of audiences, it is no secret that the majority of these plays have long since ceased to be anything above the ordinary. It is felt by many that since Negro revues are the main form of presentations the drama playlets in and nine times out of ten "held up" by the musical end of the entertainment, such as it is, the fact that playlets dealing with Negro life, and good ones which can be had made many wonder how an attempt has been made to revive them.
When Frant: Wilson was secured for the title role in "Porry," it was because he had made a success in his show at the New Lincoln theatre. At one time, he was unaware here that Wilson would not only bring to Harlem his series of plays numbering more than twelve, but that he would also appear in person, which, with his reputation added to by his collaborators, would be principal cities of the country with appearances in Europe, would mean much to any theatre in the community. Wilson thought at one time that negotiations had been open to induce Wilson to present his offerings at the New Lincoln Theatre, but when the house opened last Saturday with another form of entertainment that rumor was spiked. The weakness of Wilson's work was illustrated than in the case of Wilson. Here is a man with playlets far superior to the majority, which Harlemites, we are told, are enjoying, yet he has no outlet for his productions, and he is not interested in the art which won him so much acclaim in a bigger way downown.
To have taken advantage of the opportunity to use some of the talent held by the box office with a greater appeal to Negro audiences would have been a tenacity that would have nothing of the added opportunity of a number of other performers to get employment in these superior offerings, he has meant much to the box office.

Why Amos 'n Andy Make 'Em Like It
How would you like to be a goat dog, judge, prosecuting attorney, dean of a law school, or of a lodge, a fortune teller, a Hindu prince and radio salesman all in the fifteen minutes? Sounds complicated, doesn't it? And it is.
This is the task confronting the two highest paid radio entertainers in the United States today, Charles F. Godsen, known to the radio audience of the nation as Amos 'n Andy. Theirs is an exacting task at times, when each actor is compelled to handle four or five roles himself, for in them voice alone, and not make-up, that distinguishes characters. Amos and Andy are the whole works and the only performers. Amos even barks like a docteur-critic. Corrall is in attendance, in addition to being Andy has also the roles of Fred, the landlord, several officers of the Mystic Knights of the Sea, and other characters for which his deep bass voice is adapted. Amos, in the hand, is the Kingfish, the Prince, the Fortune Teller and many other incidental characters.
In many episodes, the boys are kneeling in a row out of different roles, talking to themselves for a five-minute interval.
When a new character is created, Correll and Godsen first decide upon the character and the type of voice the character will use. Correll will use several types of voice until one of the characters are divided as evenly as possible to allow the boys a breathing space.
The different voice characterization will change the voice and partly by changing it in front of the microphone, Correll, for instance, will take the part of Andy by speaking close to the instrument, but if he should take the part of another character he would dart back into eightteen inches from the microphone.
Amos also moves back and forth changing from the Kingfish to his role as Amos. Anyone watching them aware of the necessity of their actions might well think they were irgende.
In a famous courtroom scene once portrayed, Andy was involved in a breach of the promise suit' brought against him, the judge. Ten persons were in the cast. Correll took the part of Andy, attorney for the defense, judge, policeman and county clerk. Godsen was Amos, prosecuting attorney, bailiff and hitch with both actors bobbing back and forth like jumping jacks. But Amos in Andy know their own limitations. Never has Medame Queen's voice, nor that of Ruby Tayyad, the radio host. The boys are good, but they draw the line on a woman's voice. Then, too, they are in vaudville, and that's something else again. The NBC network, over which the boys are involved, arrangements nightly to bring to the radio world the voices of the stars.

Swaffer Likes Anderson
Provincial people have no iden of the way in which even Sundays are filled with the theatre in London. Last Sunday night there were no fewer than ten functions, to four of which were all centering around amusement. The most novel, perhaps, was the address which Garland Anderson, a full-blooded Negro, gave to the Gallery. First Nighters, who meet in a wild house, on "Is Success Available to All"? Anderson, who has been to see me with his play, "Appearances," which he wrote in the intervals of answering the telephone in an hotel in San Francisco, has wanted a thing you can get it by killing the fears of your subconscious mind. In this way, he says, he won through from obscurity. Now, after some weeks of wishing we had a chance and persisting, he has got the money for a London production of his play.
He spoke to the Gallery First Nighters for an hour and a quarter altogether, mostly at the rate of 200 words a minute adequately, and with such success that, they tell me, if he were to take a large hall, it would be filled the third time he spoke—Hannen Swaffer in the London Daily Express.

Think of him still as the same, I say.

Rendall Memorial Presbyterian Pastor Sees Political Scheme Tottering and Public Officials Failing to Help Masses
"Christ was a keen student of social conditions as they made themselves felt in His day," declared the Rev. Thomas J. B. Harris, pastor of the Rendall Memorial Presbyterian Church, 59 West 137th street, in a sermon delivered before his congregation Sunday morning.
Choosing as his subject "Some Phases of Gospel Ministry as Exercised by Jesus Christ," Dr. Harris said, "Life in the days of Christ was different from the days of Jesus, and were few metropolitan centers. The principles of human living, however, are the same today as they were then. "There are," declared the divine, "six million persons in the United States who are unemployed. They must have each day the necessities of life. These must come either from a reserve had by those unemployed or from the earnings of the employed. There are a lack of work breeds crime, thus creating further social problems."

"The whole political scheme," continued Dr. Harris, "seems to be totering. People are fast losing faith in public officials who have demonized the masses, and are benefiting of the masses. This was true also of Jesus' day. He had to deal with the Pharisees and the Publicans and He left us the doctrine of helping others." The world" concluded Dr. Harris, "is losing faith in an inactive Christianity; the social needs of the people is a challenge which Christianity

Ministers Vote for Return to Fold Of Greater City Church Federation
Clerics' Alliance Agrees to Work in Harmony With New York Union After Metropolitan Body Disavows Segregation Idea
Following the receipt of a letter repudiating charges that the greater New York Federation of Churches favored or endorsed racial segregation, the Interdenominational Ministers' meeting voted unanimously Monday afternoon to resume relations with the organization at a meeting held in Salem M. E. Church, 120th street and Seventh avenue.
22
Two weeks ago the ministers in their meeting announced their intention of severing all connections with the church federation because of certain statements in the report of George H. Hobart, white, director of the federation's research department. The statement of Mr. Hobart' to which the ministers took offense and which they charged hinted at segregation was to the effect that it was "of great importance to the churches to know where Negro immigration is developing." Mr. Hobart also said: "If the Negro will stay in one place, then the church knows its future problems, but when he moves from place to place the future of the church in these localities is uncertain."
Upon the publication of Mr. Hobart's report, the ministers drew up a solution in which they stated that all engagements in Harlem bearing on the religious program of the federation are canceled." The body went on record as refusing to co-operate in any way with the organization until this report was repudiated.
The letter of repudiation was deemed satisfactory by the ministers and outlined clearly the attitude of the federation as follows: "We never have stood and do not now stand for the segregation of the colored people in this city. We are opposed to race prejudice and desire to do all in our power to remove it."
Further stating that the federation desired to co-operate with the Negro churches in removing the present handicaps of their church life, the organization declared: "We repudiate any statement that may have been made or implied contrary to this statement." This letter was signed by Ralph W. Sockman, white president of the federation.
Drafts Resolution.
The Interdenominational Ministers' Meeting drew up the following resolution to be sent as its answer to the federation letter: "In view of this satisfactory adjustment of a very disturbing and unpleasant situation, this body assures the federation of its full and active co-operation in putting

Clayton Powell, pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church, and Watt Terry, wealthy real estate man, were roundly scored by the Rev. William Byrd, pastor of the Community Church. Jersey City, for their attitude and statements to the press concerning Mr. Hobart's report without, as he charged, having investigated the matter. Dr. Byrd characterized both men as having denied their race and "joined the forces of Toryism." His efforts to have the ministers' meeting take some action rebuke both Dr. Powell and Mr. Terry, however, did not meet the approval of the body and no action was taken.

Prominent Poughkeepsie Man Succumbs Suddenly
Funeral services were held Saturday in Trinity Church, Poughkeepsie, for James K. Lewis, 63, prominent resident of that city and for many years court attendant, who died suddenly Thursday morning in the bathroom of his home in Poughkeepsie. The circumstances surrounding the death of Mr. Lewis present a series of coincidental deaths in the Lewis family, which are almost uncanny in their startling similarity. The fourth member of his family to drop dead suddenly, Mr. Lewis, was the third to die in the bathroom.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Margaret Lewis, and four children, three daughters and one son, all of whom are married; two brothers, Clarence Lewis of Washington, and John Lewis of Jersey City; one sister, Mrs. R. L. Baltimore of New York.
Tailor's Father Dies
Rufus Baird, proprietor of the tailor shop at 201 West 138th street, is now in Georgetown, Texas, where he went to attend the funeral of his father, Esau Baird, last Wednesday. His father was ill only three days with pneumonia.
Dental Clinic Hit By Lack of Money
Harlem Service Forced to Close After Deficit for Five Years
After operating for five years, during which time 9,455 children received dental treatment at the in 22-763 visits, to dental clinic, which the Harlem Committee of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association maintained at its headquarters in the Urban League Building 200 West 136th street, closed its doors Saturday because of a lack of sufficient funds.
When the clinic was established for the children of Harlem, because the association felt that one of the causes of tuberculosis was bad teeth, it was hoped that other health agencies would aid in its support. The first work of the clinic was done by dentists who gave of their service without charge. Two dentists, however, were in attendance daily during the past year and they received pay. The cost of operating the clinic for one year is estimated at $6,000. Deficits to the amount of $4,000 last year made the closing of the clinic necessary as the entire association last year suffered deficits of $2,000. Although the work of the clinic has stopped, the equipment has not been removed from the Urban League building and it is the hope of the Tuberculosis Association that some other agency will take over the clinic and continue this work.
Plans are being completed now for the opening of a dental clinic in April at Public School 139, 149th street between Seventh and Lenox avenues.

Tells of New Tube
Hum, considered a necessary evil in the receiver operated by house current, has been taken out of the A. C. radio tube.
This bugaboo, introduced to household radio when battery sets became passe, has been conquered in the laboratory by Benjamin F. Melissner, research engineer of Short Hills, N. J. who has been identified with radio development for more than ten
Mr. Melssner, in pointing out that his development represented three years of intensive research, said that the tube would be of value in eliminating hum from receivers now in the home. Zie explained that most of the hum was generated' by the detector tube and that much of it could be suppressed merely by replacing that tube with one of the hum-free type.
Volume Control
The Golden Rule is a good rule to follow in tuning your radio. There is no reason to keep the volume control all the way up when tuning from station to station. The varied snatches of music and speech, reproduced at full volume, can hardly fail to annoy the next door neighbor who already has his program and wants to enjoy it thoroughly. Tune in with the volume well down and, after the tuning selector is adjusted, turn up volume to the level for the best enjoyment in the particular room.
A. C. Set Gets Direct Power
The principal difference between the battery operated set and the A. C. operated set is that the latter gets its power direct from the alternating current lighting mains.
Secret of Tone Quality
What is the secret of the wonderful tone quality you enjoy from good radio sets today? Certainly, circuit improvements, better audio systems and improved speakers have all played an important part in perfection of reproduction. You can be well summed up in one word-power.
It takes approximately three times as much energy to reproduce a low note as a high one. This means to "bring out the bass" in radio power is essential. If you like the bass, and the generally their reproduction that characterizes well designed sets, increased power may be given a modest vote of thanks. Present day vacuum tubes, and particularly power power tubas for use in audio stages have played a role of real importance in the perfection of radio reception.

"Idiom and Aesthetic Of Modern Music"
The Symposium on Modern Music was continued by Prof. Douglas Moore of Columbia University, Monday evening, at the 135th street Public Library. His subject was "Idiom and Aesthetic of Modern Music." He spoke of the eighteenth and nineteenth century composers and their music, beginning with Beethoven, whose music was the bridge between the century of intellectual and romantic music known as The Romantic School.
Then he mentioned the School of Realism (story telling in music age), in which Berlioz and Strauss are the principals. Debussy turns the tide in the nineteenth century when he changes the idiom, but not the aesthetic. Later in the nineteenth century Stravinsky changes aesthetic, bringing about an entirely new style of music. Debussy is considered the best modern composer and Stravinsky is next.
The modern music of today is influenced by a combination of folk and savage rhythms, the old chants and scales, including the whole tone scale. The changes in harmony are a combination of different modes and keys simultaneously employed. Mr. Moore used a composition of Ravel, Schoenberg and Hindersmith as good examples of modern music.
Thomas Fansler is responsible for these instructive Monday evening lectures, and it is wished that more of us attend them. There are only two more.
Pupils Appear
St. Mark's M. E. Church reopened its licey Sunday afternoon with the presentation of the Junior Orchestra of the Martin-Smith School of Music.
The orchestra numbers, under the direction of Gertrude Martin, II were: Tschakowsky's "Andante Cantabile"; Roppe's "Dance of the Jacks"; Clarence Cameron White's "Cabin Song."
Piano soloists were: Eric Brown, who played "Prelude in C Sharp Minor," by Rachmanhoff; Loretta Anthony, who played Moskowsky's "Caprice Espagnol," and Felicia Singleton, who played "Sir Pantaloon," by Diller.
The Female Chorus, under the direction of Minnie Brown, sang "Welcome, Pretty Primrose Flower" by Pinslur and Moor's "Benediction."
Violin soloists were: Lawrence Bourne, who played "Dansia's Aims and Variations"; Gladys Hargrove, who played "Melody in F"; Romaine Brown, "Traumert!"; by Schumann; George Harris, "Flower Song," and Gertrude Martin, III, who played a lullaby, "Baby Bye."
It is to be hoped that these youngsters can and will be encouraged to continue their musical education, for there is much talent in most of them. The Female Chorus showed excellent training in ensemble singing.
Square Club to Present Contralto
Martian Anderson, contralto, will give a recital under the auspices of the Prince Hall Square Club, Inc., on Sunday afternoon, March 2, at Carnegie Hall.
The Prince Hall Square Club, Inc., an organization composed of men who are members of the Prince Hall Masonic fraternity, and who are in the employ of the Federal, State and Municipal Governments, was started in 1923.
Miss Anderson's first big appearance was as soloist with the Philharmonic Symphony Society of Philadelphia. This was followed by a song recital in Town Hall, where such critics as W. J. Henderson called her voice one of the great contrasts of the day, and a recital at the Philadelphia Academy of Music, where she again scored a success.
In 1925 Miss Anderson entered the

The Empire School of Music
The Sunday New York Times stated that a distinguished French critic of music and of the dance, Dr. Stephen Chauvet, in his recent work, "Negro Music," passes a judgment which may be disconcerting to some who have had other notions in the matter. He says: "There is nothing less specifically Negro, nothing that resembles real African Negro music less than jazz."

CARDINALS WIN
OVERTIME GAME
The Cardinals, claimants to the junior basketball crown of the city, were the blemished record last Saturday at the West 135th Street Y when they defeated the Brooklyn Rangers 42-40. An extra period was needed to decide the winner. The visitors had possession of the ball the greater portion of the first half and were leading at the end of the game. Harris held their lead for a time in the second half until goals by Wood and Harris made the margin slimmer and the lead long heavier. Harris evened matters to the whistle sounded. Harris again came through with a beautiful toss in extra period, his team, along with a succession of shots, to distance the visitors, who had to be content with one goal.

The second place was contested all the points, won by Troop 263, with another team of this very troop taking the fourth place. At the first joint of of the race, an accident happened with the second and Eutemay, which placed the second in a favorable position. It actually lost nearly 15 yards as a result, but was able to overcome much of this, and lost to the third team by only one yard. Those on the winning team were G. Holmes, J. Whiting, H. Hollon, R. Joelcyn, T. McGill and R. Payne. On the second were K. Eutemay, D. Wall, W. Hollon, H. Washington, M. E. Schested and E. Miller. The successful troop is Walter Thompson and the scoutmaster is Glatence, G. Holmes.

Scout Troop 263 in Splendid Performances at 13th Armory
Track enthusiasts number nearly 2,000 witnessed at the 13th Armory last Tuesday evening one of the most gruelling contests ever staged as over 1,500 Brooklyn Boy Scouts put forth their best efforts in order to excel, thereby winning glory for their respective troops. Youth involvement other for supremacy. Colored boys matched strength, ability and manhood with white boys; and after three hours of training, the colored boys emerged as victors. Their presence on the line was enough evidence for an interesting event, and at the crack of the pistol they were on the verge of Everywhere it could be heard, "watch those colored boys," and whenever they won, as was the rule, the roar that went up for them was apparent faster than that for their companions.
The only troop that took part in this affair, which was held under the auspices of the Brooklyn Edison Company was No. 263 of St. Philip's brilliant performance they scored the highest points which carried the honor of the Matthew S. Sloan Troop Trophy—a gold statuette of a hurdler. Another of the prizes won by this troop, apart from seven gold medals, was a silver statuette for first place in the Scout intertroop relay.
The showing made by this troop was very commendable when it is considered that they won more medals than any other troop; that they won three silver statuettes competed for; that they scored 19 points, while their nearest competitor, Troop 362, scored 9, and that they placed in each event in which they took part. No. 263, won the 90 yard-dash in the fast time of 6:2.5 and his team-mate, W. Hollon, placed third. The 100 yards was won by A. B. Litzer, Troop 77; R. Payne, Troop 362, and J. Whiting, Troop 263, third. In the 440-yard run for Scoutmasters and Assistant Scoutmasters, W. Wall, Troop 263, placed fourth.

Renaissance Five to Appear Against Philadelphia Giants At Renaissance Casino Here Next Saturday Night, Feb.22
(By FRANCIS)
Despite the extremely cold weather, a good many of the faithful fans came out last. Sunday night to see Bob Douglas's Renaissance stars persevered against the Brom Whirlwinds. This was the most enjoyable for teams in the upper New York City basketball stronghold, but the Renaissance five, with three of their first-line troops on the side, was easy fashion by the score of 42 to 28.
Starting Capt. Slocum at pivot, Ricks and Flail, forwards, and Jenkins and Yancey on defense, the game opened up slowly, by both teams passing. Other Baskets by Yancey and Slocum led to a point lead, which the visitors ended up almost at once. They, at the same time, stiffened up their defense to the point where the Rens were finding a line break through "Fappy" Ricks, who could not seem to find the range of the basket in the early came to life and started to drop them in a regularity—to the visitors—getting them into order. Flail, Slocum, Jenkins and Yancey each got two apples, ending
different instruments. Taken all round, the Five Spillers are an interesting act. All-colored Variety bills are getting somewhat popular in London. This week another one is presented at the
The New York Amsterdam News
the first half with the score showing 28 to 11 in the Rens' favor.
At the start of the second half Ricks and Jenkins were sent to the showers by Manager Douglas, and Salitch and Mayers called to duty. Enjoying a somewhat safe lead, the Ricks and Mayers were given an exhibition of passing, the defensiveness and dexterity of which pleased the crowd immensely. The visitors, on the other hand, not letting any opportunity to score go by, and it was up on the Rens. With this threatening gesture the Rens, with Salitch leading the attack, made another spurt and were soon out of danger.
Christensen, the tall center of the view with 1 point, was the high-score player at night (Washington's birthday) on Saturday night (Washington's birthday) the Philadelphia Giants will be the guests of the Rens at the Renaissance Casino. Cooper and Pearce were members of this team and it should interest to see how they will perform against their former teammates.
Upton Park Theatre, headed by Jimmy Ferguson, Carpenter and Hatch, and Jackson and Blake. The bill is hardly do other than bang, but it could hardly do otherwise, headed by the splendid artists.
Sunday night the New York Aces

der defeated the Allies by the
score of 38 to 28. Next Sunday night

The Biblical Play
Probably the most elaborate Passion Play ever produced in America will be presented for the sixteenth consecutive season at St. Joseph's Church, Union City (formerly West Hoboken), N. J., on Sunday, March 9, and will continue every Sunday afternoon and evening, and every Tuesday and Thursday evening during Lent.
The play, known as "Veronica the Vell," American's Passion Play, is a play of the passion of taking care has been taken by the Passionist Fathers, under whose auspices it is given, to make the production perfect in every detail.
The production is arranged in five acts, and the drama has utilized Veronica's Vell." America's Passion Play, is based on the tradition of the woman Veronica, who comforted the Sawlour on His way to Calvary. The legend Father Bernardine C. P., the author, has likened the thrend of the drama. The logical sequence of the narrative, which opens with the treacherous betrayal of Christ by Judas, is preserved by the series of tableaux, depicting the greatest of the New Testament miracles.
The Crucifixion, always regarded as marvelous in the Oberammergau production, is achieved with splendid effect. By some remarkable artistry, the scene seems to be reflected from the face and body of the Nazarene, hanging on the cross, and face of Mary the mother of Jesus, and Mary Cleophas, who stand one at either side, and the reflection of this light. Mary Maledene lies at the foot of the cross. All else is in complete darkness and only the bare outline of the figures of the Roman guards can be distinctions. The dying Christ gives a final sigh in the darkness, and the upheaval of the whole earth. Thunder rolls, lightning flashes and all the elements seems to unite in paying tribute to the martyrred Sailor. With one accord the guards rise, and the face, and only the grave faces of the three women remain undisturbed.
The tableaux is perhaps the most successful, if not the first of its kind, ever attempted apart from that induction in the Oberammergau production and elsewhere. It remains upon the cross for only five minutes, the whole is achieved with wonderful effect.
The Christ qualities of dignity, strength and compassion, forgiveness and greater success than could be accomplished through the medium of mere words, and the so complete unself-consciousness of the central figure cannot fail in its appeal to the emotion and the loftiest thought.

HAMPTON LEADS JOHNSON SMITH
HAMPTON LEADS JOHNSON SMITH
Seasiders Showed Poor Form Despite Victory Last Saturday
HAMPTON INSTITUTE. Va. Feb. 16. In a brilliant game for Johnson C. Smith and a rather poor one for Hampton, the Seasiders eked out a victory in the last ten minutes, Saturday, Feb. 15.
One minute before the half time whistle Johnson C. Smith was in the second half, Taylor brought Hampton through the half ahead. The Bulls used a five man defense that, in its virtual penetrability, kept the Hampton forwards trying from center. Horne, a coy guard, allowed few attempts under the basket.
Cole shot in the first minute tying Avant's shot, and Alexander gained a temporary lead. But J. C. S's fine passing technique speedily pulled the Bulls ahead.
The second half was a vacillating affair. Gates secured a lead for Hampton, but the score, 13-13 in the first five minutes, Cotton gained another lead, only to have Avant dissipate it again. Alexander, with ten minutes ahead, tied again, and Lanky Coles placed a difficult shot putting the Seasiders in the fore.
The rest of the game was decidedly in favor of Hampton, as she recaptured some of her old form. Taylor, Cotton, and Alexander dribbled and shot all around the Bulls, and the gun closed the fray with Hampton victorious, 29-19.
Alexander and Cotton were high point men, scoring nine and five points respectively. McGowan, Taylor, Horne and Christian were the outstanding guards.

Shaw Defeats St. Augustine
RALEIGH. FETCH. SHOW
University basketball defeated their ancient athletic rivals- St. Augustine College—here last night in one of the most eclectic games seen on the local university seasons. The final score was 30-24.
The fifteen hundred fans that turned out to see the game got thrills and excitement from the crowd. Veney of St. Aug. drew first bloom of the game when he made a beautiful overhead shot from the sideline near the court. The Bears soon got their house in overtime the two-point lead early in the first half, never to be headed again during the entire game. The away mark found Shaw leading 13-8.
The second half found both teams functioning in orderly fashion, with St. Augustine threatening to overrun the margin, gaining five times did the Saints play within points of the Bears, only to have it lost again as the diminutive Nat Walker began to sink double-deckers to success. The climax of the game was a victory during two minutes of play. Shaw was leading 26-20 and two minutes to go. The Saints took time out and got together, to score four points in rapid succession. The climax of the hero role, to cage a crip and into his team out of danger. Lyle made a beautiful cripp shot as the whistle made a decision to bring the sum total to 20-24. Lyle made a big-up game at guard for Shaw; tactic was hard for the Saints to solve. Des Verney and Austin were the high lights for St. Aug.

Bordentown Breaks Even in 4 Games Recently Contested
BORDENTOWN, N. J., Feb. 13.—Recovering from two successive defeats in Baltimore and Washington at the hands of Douglass and Armstrong High, the Bordentown School of the University, matters by trotting gained at the Howard High of Wilmington and Cheyne Normal School, on the Jersey five's home court.
The Wilmington players were anxious to atone for a defeat received at Bordentown previous in the season, and at Bordentown both teams made a slow game. Both teams missed many chances to score, and the final score, 17-11, was the lowest made on the Ironsides court this season. Against Cheyne the team found their shooting eye again, and won a spirited contest by a 33-23 count.
Though always in the rear, Cheyne was a constant threat and exhibited promising form with her first varsity team in several years. Superior execution and the town's favor, however, the team was an accurate measure of the difference in play by the two teams.
ATLANTIC CITY. N. J. Feb. 15—At the All Wars Memorial Building Friday, Rheims Post went down at Philadelphia, 26-24. It was a game that bristled with action from start to finish, and had a rabidly partisan crowd on edge throughout the turf of heart to wrest this victory from the seashore passers, but the visitors first came from behind, then outthought, outshot and outfought the players as their stars Bouss and Bush were banished via the personal foul route, and were jubilant victors at the final whistle.
Starting the game, the Post rushed to the center, and a foul hit by a put Feerless in the going with a field and foul toss, to Seay and, again, Todd made it 9-3. But Seay went on to hit him, quickly tailed, then Seay, Seas and Jackson scored from the penalty mark, then Seay from the field, but Moore scored from past center, Davis scored from court and鼓 it up from the foul mark just as the half ended. 13-13.
In the second half Ward replaced Aldrich at forward for the Post. Ford and Davis quickly scored from the field. Jackson tallied from side court. Moore was all over; Seyn couldn't get the ball out. Sanders. Bush tallied a field and soul point while holding Ward to a lone foul point; he was banished on four personalists. Todd scored under the basket, but Davis and Ford kept tossing them in from the field, and those corps led 29-22-10 points brought them to a three-minute play with Pearless display a superb defense, the heavier
MORGANRETAINS CHAMPIONSHIP
"Lanky" Jones Pulls Wonder Shot in Monumental City Contest
In a game replete with thrills a "Dick Merrillwell" shot by Capt. Lanky" Jones while the whistle was blowing earned a 39-38 verdict for the champions of Morgan over the alerts white, at Baltimore, Md., in a battle for the city championship.
It took a dazzling rally in the last five games of play to win for the Methodists.
The game was hard fought throughout* and marred by considerable roughness. The Bears drew first blood when Spencer hooked one under the basket. Then he ground when the Schriber brothers' team revolt, put his team in front by two baskets. The Methodists soon overcame the lead and battled on to half time which was 17-17, no credit—no debt.
Morgan opened up the second half with a two pointer but this respite was managed to stay ahead 4 points up to a five minutes of play. In the closing minutes of the seto the collegiate champs uncorried a spectacular offence of the Bears' "Lanky" Jones shot the winning basket from beyond the half-way mark—a shot hardly ever seen and sediment read about. Jones led the pack in total points, amassing a total of 12—while close behind was Richy Alerts with 13 points. The college captain abashed by Cassie Jones and Wheated by the Bears, the Bears, while "Lefty" Stern and Richy shone best for the invaders.

Abrams must have suffered from the same complaint that affected Hybert and Billy Drako was substituted. Gans had no trouble with Drako and, after completely closing the latter's eye in the sixth round, the referee stopped the fight. Gans is required to have hurt his hand and will again have to go on the shelf for a while.

KID ANSELM WINS ARMORY CROWN
KID ANSELM WINS ARMORY CROWN
Took Decision Over Porto Rican in Brooklyn Last Week
The National Guard bantamweight
tandem today rests securely upon the
thin black brow of a minute Kid
Chocolate—a crafty little youngster
with an accurate and most efficient
left hand. His name is Frankie Kid
Anselm and his birthplace Philadelphia,
said Andy Lang In the Brooklyn
Standard Union after the battle last week.
Stepping in, out and around of
Sindullo Diaz, swarthy-skinned native of Porto Rico, Anselm pecked his way carefully to a twelve-round verdict in the feature event at the 105th Army Armory last Friday night. It was the first loss Diaz has suffered since he came to this country more months ago.
Díaz could not make the stipulated roundage of the bantamweight division — 118 pounds and and mindfully the Navy Guard, the Navy Guard, that the throne in that mass would be vacant if Sindufu licked Anselm, but that the Philadelphia boxer would become titleholder if he won. Anselm is the first colored boxer ever to hold an armory, and the Downtown performer is the general Haskell gold emblem of it. Díaz made a fight of it after the seventh round, but he couldn't keep it up right to the finish, and the Downtown performer gave care to win a victory triumph. The boxer won the eighth and ninth round, holding Frankie even in the seventh and tenth. Every other session went to the winner. Sindufu, ordinarily, a buzz-saw during an encounter, wouldn't penetrate defense nor solve his shopping tactics. He missed badly, whereas in other matches he has shown an ability to punch hard and accurately. It was a tribute to the new championship guy that he knew would be to "bull" him into chewing, instead of bending.
Anslem is fast, clever and smart, he isn't much of a puncher and for a time which can stand up under a trouncing. However, you don't meet the brawny rankers, but buntwineweight ranks and, anyway, you can't flatten someone you can't hit. It will take a mighty good man to beat you, the armories or at the outside clubs.
Dlaz weighed 119. Anslem 116.
"Y" Beats Passaic
The "YY" Seniors traveled to Paterson, N. J. last Wednesday to play Passale at the Ellison street play in a previous game through an error in their scorekeeper and they resolved that there would be no question that Passale was in this decision in their favor. Passale could not fathom the teamwork that the New Yorkers put on the game, and the two worked loose time after time. The game was safe for the "YY" early the second half when Passale became impossible to get the ball through the guarding of Harvest and Taylor. Rubber Reese was high scorer with Passale while Harris scored 7 points.
The "Y" Seniors play Montclair at the "Y" February 28 and a good game may be expected by those who who play. Montclair beaten the "Y" Montclair a game wins all the way. The two teams have played seven games so far with the 183th street "Y" winning four and Montclair three. The New Yorkers won the game, winning side of the calendar on the fifth. The Montclair "Y" girls' team will play the "Y" girls' team of New York in the preliminary.

MORGAN STOPS HOWARD HERE
Holiday Game Drew Thousands to See College Teams on Neutral Court
Before at holiday crowd here last Wednesday of 3,000 cheering spectators. Howard lost a fast and well-played basketball game to Morgan College of Baltimore.
Spencer of Morgan opened up the scoring three minutes after the toss-up. Howard tied the score a minute later on a goal beneath the basket by Taylor. Jones was getting the tap, but close guarding by Smith and Harris broke up the Morgan formations. Morgan scored four more points on baskets by Clarke and Spencer. Howard came back with a goal by Hall.
From this point on the first half ground of the game, a clark between Hall of Howard and Clark of Morgan. The ball would be passed with lightning-like rapidity to one end of the court. Hall and Clarke invariably ended these sails by a neat flip from the floor. Morgan went off the floor with a three-point advantage, 18-15.
In the second half Howard got possession of the ball. Williams dribbed through, scored and was fouled by the ball. He scored a shot from the foul line, but made good on the second, tying the score at 18-18. Morgan called for time out to collect themselves. Play was resumed and Morgan scored a shot to tell. Lanky Jones, who had been having trouble keeping Taylor from scoring, opened up. Rap Wheatley, another big gun, started dropping shots from midcourt. Howard tailed the ball with two minutes to go. With two minutes to go, Coach Hurt took out his first team. Howard took advantage of this substitution to score a point every ten of the game. Williams scored three, goals each.

Fisk Continues Victorious
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Feb. 7- The Fisk University bulldogs, after opening the season with three defeats, continued tonight on their string of victories, checking up their fourth win against a team representing the Y. M. C. A. of Louisville, which was far superior in experience, but lacked the punch and team spirit that the team had. The game ended with a score of 38 to 10. The Fisk forward attack was ever alert and led at the half 16 to 10. Both teams shot with about equal accuracy during the final period. The Fisk forward scored two goals and Windex, with ten points each, with Madison and Lawson pulling up with eight each. Windex and Lawson are products of the "Y." team and the hometown class of forward attack for the home team wick and W. A. Kean were the lights for the "Y." Sedwick, with six field goals and three gifts, scored the bulk

QUEENS CHAMPS TOO MUCH FOR 'Y'
"Y" Boys Upset by Spectacular All Around Teamwork of Jewish Quint
The Y. M. H. A. from the Jewish Center, led by the Beck Brothers, defeated the fast Panther quintet of the Jamaica "Y" at the Jamaica Arena on Lincoln's birthday. This defeat was not an upset, however, because it was generally believed if the Southside team hoped to come out on top they would have had to show improvement in their all around work. They did display an improved game, but they left lots to be desired in the way of winning form. The game really was a thriller from beginning to end, with neither team holding very much of the edge until the Queens Champs stepped out and asserted themselves in the last quarter.
Coach Pelton started his second team with the exception of Gholston, who played the entire game at center, then realizing that the going would be easier if he played to his first five. Their opponents kept their original five intact, with the exception of Lebenson, who changed places with Hess late in the game, and Hess certainly was a "pest," with ample aid of the Beck brothers was all over the court all evening.
The Panthers displayed a wonderful brand of ball throughout the contest and at times nothing short of a masterclass in defense, assure them of victory. They at last had encountered a team well adapted to their style of play, both in aggressive and offensive tactics. The score at half time was 13 to 12 in the championship, and the score indicated just what kind of competition the Panthers had to contend with, and when the Jewish "Jew" amassed the total of 42 points to the Panthers' 31 it was apparent to all present that they had lots to learn he needed to defeat teams of like calibre.
The preliminary game was played by the Mercedes from the West 135th street branch Y. M. C. A., and the Employed Young Men's Brotherhood from the Southside "Y." The "Cubs" played their first major game, displayed a splendid brand of ball, but went down to defeat by a 27 to 21 count. With their second team showing the way, the "Cubs" fought the team from the Southside half of the game. In the final half, with the teams deadlocked at 19 to 19, with two minutes to play, Smith, the Jamaica team captain, broke this with a beautiful field goal. It was not allowed, however, because of techni- lessons, and left the crowd in an unwax. This seemed to upset the Cubs and before they could recover the Mercedes had forgeed ahead by four field goals and managed to maintain it un- the final whistle. Captain Smith, Barry Bonds, and Cary played well for the Harlem team.

Fisk Beats Wilberforce
NASHVILLE Feb. 8.—The smooth working Wilberforce quintet invaded Fisk tonight with high hopes of adding another to their lot of victories, but the highly spirited bulldogs were non-relenting and turned the tables to take a 29 to 27 victory. Undoubtedly, this was the snappiest and classiest affair of the season, for the Nashville fans were on their tiptoes the whole forty minutes of play.
Fisk jumpها off to lead when Yost threw in one from the�arter of the floor and was later followed by a cripshot by Madison. The defense of both teams was good, but the Fiskites took advantage of their chances to shoot and won out in the last minute of play by a follow-up foul shot by Cox. Time-after time the scores were tied and it seemed possibly anybody's game.
Fisk exhibition is a new scoring combination in Yost. Wilberforce and Madison, who had scored 29 points to 13 for Wilberforce at the half, being accurately fed by the good passes of Cox and Lawson. For Wilberforce Gibbs led the scoring with 10 points, although he was in the game only half of the time, going out by the way of the foul route. Clark. Cliff Laws and Crisp were the leading roles of the teams, with their set-up and crisis-insons.

HOWARD DOWNS VIRGINIA UNION
Washington School Took Lead in the Association by Big Victory
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 11.—Howard University broke the triple tie with Lincoln and Hampton for lead in the C. I. A. A. ack last Tuesday night by defeating Virginia Union University in the Howard gymnasium, with a score of 32-12.
Before the end of the first half it was clearly evident that it would be a one-sided affair, as indicated by the time between the periods a large number of the spectators left the gymnasium. Union was able to score only two field goals three fouls during the first half, and was collecting four twin-markers, and eight points from the foul line.
In the case of Howard it was general team work—no individual standing out above other. Each of the regulars scored two each, except Taylor, who collected three.
For the most part, the second half gave the impression of a fast work-
foot break. There was no reason for a Howard frenzy here
was no particular indication of an effort to run up the score. During
the last few minutes of game Coach
Hall told his second team in order
to give the team a rest for its
game with Morgan in New York on
the following night.

Bringing a message of cheer and good-will, a number of Brooklyners and Long Islanders have visited the Long Island office of The Amsterdam New York Center the last few weeks. Identify located in the Community Center Building at the of Lewis avenue on Fulton Street, place presents an animated scene, with local residents taking advantage of the office to deal directly with the office maintained to meet the needs of those in the fastest growing sections of Greater New York.
Among some of the most prestigious men to pay their respects are Rufus L. Linden, recently contributed a thousand dollars toazarite Church drive and one of the most important attorneys in Brooklyn: Rev. George Prazerel Miller of St. Augustine Church. Rev. James P. Adams of Concord Bath, Rev. Henry Hugh Pucor of the Nazareth Church and Rev. Clifford Miller of Church in Jamaica, L. I.; Bishop Reginald row of the African Orthodox Church; Arthur A. Schomburg, of whom this week back; William P. Carrington, son of Carrington Brothers, of the most real estate operators in Greater City, with offices on upper Pulton street; George H. Wibecur, satawire; George H. and for many years an outstretched life of the life of Brooklyn; Quentin Vaughan on Avenue Branch Y. M. C. A., and a host of others too numerous to mention. The community pages maintained by the Amsterdam News have had their effect, the "City of Churches" has best minds out of their way to compliment them being done, many letters coming into the Brooklyn office recently with a thankful appreciation for the hurried changes in the past month, the senders call it a sign of improvement and progress.
"We note with pleasure," said a well-known Brooklyn citizen, writing to the paper, "what the demands upon your time, the various interests in the borough precincts, such as the glorification of self-seekers and the element in the community best designated as a motoryer hounds." Enough to brooklyn residents to question the sincerity of thefference serves us who, encouraged by certain elements, are but self-appointed leaders of a blind clientele. "The demands of those seeking to work in the display columns of The Amsterdam New York office by a well-appointed staff of office workers. The Brooklyn office is also kept open every Monday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. for a regular daily schedule of 9 to 5 hours when the place is closed at one clock."

SPIKING THE GAME OF STAGE DOOR JOHNNIES
(Continued from Ninth Page.)
"the best thing done since Williams and Walker," an old claim which used to give "Sloth" grounds for a significant guttural grunt. Mae, who had stepped from the inside of a huge watermelon, was "putting on her stuff" and at the same time being "sized up" by "Sloth." Her contortions must have been satisfying to the connoisseur of feminine charm, for "Sloth" lost his indisposition and at the same time gained an entrance back stage. His engaging manner being at its best when Mae came off, he soon had her believing (he thought) that he met her when she graced another show, and Mae not being a hearing that she was wasting good time when she ought to have been on Broadway, lent (apparently) a ready ear to "Sloth's" praises, which flowed from him in an easy and entertaining style through long practice.
Mae was good to look upon. You realized that when she was chosen by other, she would respond to other, as he had repositioned to maintain and in his forthright year he was not going to allow himself to put a mark on a record for always being in the show. The pleasure it would afford him to take Mae out to dinner was to be his, for she had said so; therefore "Slooth" made himself at home in the wings of the stage and changed for another big spot in the show. Midnight of Monday found "Slooth" drinking deep from the eyes of Mae Oggood and admiring into the eyes of "Slooth" in the quiet corner in Sleddle's Dining Palace on upper Seventh avenue. Midnight of every other day found "Slooth" in the room on Saturday, when the show-down came.
The charming Miss Oogood had sparred so well during the week she had accomplished that which many others had failed to do, and that was to her surprise that she had not without having to see certain well placed instinations in his light. So when Saturday night came and "Sloot" was in a position to tell his croon that she had have some other worlds to conquer in that she was sometimes when the fascinating Mao, blinding him a fond farewell at the door of her idolings, slipped him a pawn ticket and asked him to redeem a tifope that she had pawned on Lenox avenue. That was had enough in itself, but when she threw her arms around "Sloot" and insisted that he come to Philadelphia—where she was appearing the following week—without warmth and with a shiny refluxance which Mae overlooked.
"Sloth" was thoughtful as he ambled down Seventh avenue towards his abode. This was something new for him, and he was finally ended with a show's close date on Saturday night, as seldom did his lady friends final time to write back to him. He thought this watch called for a considerable outlay, and "Sloth" had never been forced to put out this way for his friends. He thought flashed on his vision. He would pay the interest, which was already many, many days overdue, and some days still try to remain in her good grace.
But what little "better nature" "Sloth" possessed worried him, for Mae did succeed in getting a little deeper into his previous loves of the past. Then another line of thought came to him and he immediately formed plans to put it into effect. It was a long time before he could remember Monday he wired Mae he would come to Philadelphia at the end of the week. Mae wrote back and rapturously told him she would look for him—and the
But instead of arriving on the night of the closing date of the Philadelphia showing of the company "Sloth" arrived quietly on Friday. A few casual inquiries confirmed a suspicion which he had confirmed these suspensions by certain personal detective work at a Mace hotel it was almost with a sense of great relief that he unburdened himself to her when he managed to detach her from the man who had supplanted him the very night of her arrival in Philadelphia.
"Sweotherlart," said "Sloth" to the leading lady of Watermelon Dreams who had unsuccessfully tried to explain her latest love affair away. "If these boozes that you learn up with in every town are as wise as its guys on Sav- n't-Horn, I can just keep up the interest on your watch. I was most gone on you, but recovered in time. Experience and habit prevented me from falling too hard for you, and good business sense told me to get the low down on you while playing a little game of my own. To you had a good chance, I listen to as fine a story has ever been told of whom you like myself seldom if over redeem your shop goods for the stage ladies, but here's the ticket and a few words of advice. You're like a dog in the manager. In the stream of your mind was reflected the bone you already had, but you did not know you were looking at a group another group who will you already had one, you've lost them both and (looking at her Philadelphia friend as he concluded) you bozo is not as dumb as he looks and you'll have a hell of a time explaining this close conversation with me to him, as he knows me personally, he wants to be the tech of my own. I'll be a long man. Perhaps when you come back in another show I'll have forgotten you by that time and we'll go all over the ground again."
But Mae had explained to the satisfaction of her Philadelphia friend long before "Sloth" reached the station to take a train for New York, and when she arrived in the lobby of her hotel he had a pawnbroker ticket to lobem her ring from a South street pawnbroker. "Oh, well," said Mae to herself as she prepared to retire, "what's the use of quarrelling with them when I am saving money on my meals and making money on a trip to Philadelphia, a bracelet in Baltimore and a necklace in Washington? It's a great game."

"To defend my race, I would face death unfinchingly in the event of another war, but otherwise I should lie situate," George Wright, 35, 2756 Eighth avenue, who served as a corporal with the British on four foreign fronts during the last war, told The Amsterdam News on Saturday in an interview.
There was no hint of cowardice in Mr. Wright's declaration. One only knew that this slight, bronze, modest young man, whose experiences rival those of a Percival Wren novel, questioned the horrible cost of war and its justification.
A native of Jamaica, British West Indies, George Wright enlisted in the Third B. W. I. Regiment in 1915 and was sent almost immediately to England for training. From that time until the close of the war Wright's experiences read like an adventure tale, but let him tell you of them.
"Our regiment," said Mr. Wright, "was sent to Alexandria, Egypt, soon after we reached England. It was in Egypt that I had one of the most thrilling experiences of my whole army career. This was a sandstorm in the Sahara desert. The storm descended upon us without warning and we were held in its relentless grip for hours.
"The wind howled and shrieked, lashing the hot dry sand into our faces, blinding our eyes and patching our throats. The heat was insufferable and we had to be very careful of our water supply. Each man was only allowed to drink when he received permission from his commanding officer and then only to molest his throat with the thief of drinks. As suddenly as we began the storm subsided and we had easier." Battled Arms.
From Egypt his regiment was sent to Palestine to put down Arab uprisings and again Wright participated in events which changed the map of the world and made history. On Dec. 9, 1917, along with his regiment he marched into Jerusalem under the orders of the Ottoman Empire, was the first time that Jerusalem had not been under Moslem control since 1244 and the city was not reclaimed without fierce fighting and much bloodshed. Thereafter followed months of fighting the Arabs in Mesopotamia; the Germans in German East Africa; as well as in France and Belgium. As a drummer and battery gunman, Wright had plenty of thrilling experiences and Garnaw escaped from death. When asked what gave him his most thrilling experience in the war he said: "Airplanes and poison gas more than anything else. The moment I felt closest to death was in France, when twenty-five out of the thirty-sk men in my company were killed."
The Germans were his enemies but Wright felt no personal enmity toward them. This got him into trouble once in France, when he gave a cigarette to a German prisoner. For this act of kindness Wright was sent to prison in Rome for three months. Two days after the armistice was signed Wright's restment was transferred to Italy and there they were demobilized. He returned to his native Jamaica, where he was a short while, for the lure of adventure had now fastened itself upon him and could not easily be shaken off. Soon after reaching home he joined the navy and spent another year in visting foreign ports. Leaving the navy in 1919, Wright then

became a steward on passenger boats and continued his travels until 1925. Having travelled thousands of miles and after circling the globe three times, Wright came to New York, where he now lives. He possesses two medals which were conferred upon him by the British government for bravery under fire. Despite these honors and the richness of his experiences, Wright is a modest self-effacing individual reluctant to talk about himself. He is happily married and is employed an an elevator operator at an apartment house at 448 Fourth avenue.

So you see we are sandwiched in between where we will have to make good, as the R-K-O admission from 11 a. m. to 1 p. m. is ten cents more than ours and the white mob that we will have to compete with is ten cents less than ours at all times. But you know me Al nothing but the best, for we have some show, consisting of Chas. T. Randolph and his Wilberforce Collegians of ten young men, and how they do play. We also have a velvet brown chorus of eight. Our cast consists of Pretty Pink Dashing Soubrette, Walker and Walker, male and female, whom I predict great things for as they are original; Fewee, a tap dancer that taps, and our own New York Brownie Campbell, a very versatile chap, who is responsible for our great chorus, which is second to none; Sadie McKinney, Victor record

Walker's Approval of Health Chief's Plan Assures Harlem Center in 1930
Mayor Will Support Request for $1,500,000 Appropriation—Wynne's Projects Cover Four Years
Harlem stands assured of the full support of Mayor James J. Walker in obtaining the sanction of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment for funds to erect a health center in the uptown community, when Commissioner Shirley W. Wynne of the health department has announced.
The plan, as approved by Mayor Walker, will entail the erection of sixteen health centers in the city within the next four years. Commissioner Wynne's committee on neighborhood health development submitted preliminary plans in October for seven centers in Manhattan, two of which would be in Harlem.
The first of the health centers recommended by the committee already has approached reality. This will be located in North Harlem, which by reason of its peculiar health needs, and insufficient number of agencies providing health service, is regarded as requiring urgent action. This district, with an estimated population of 174,000, is one of the most congested sections of Manhattan. Residents of the district have taken a keen interest in the establishment of the new health center and the movement has the ardent support of the various social service agencies whose work in the North Harlem district has been coordinated with that of the Department of Health. Pending the erection of a new building, the center will be located in leased quarters.
It estimates that each health center, which is to have under one root the various services of the Department of Health and voluntary agencies, as well as a baby health station, visiting nurse service, diagnostic chest station, prenatal and maternity service, nutrition and other services, will cost approximately $2500 to build and that the cost of maintenance will approximate $6,500 a year. Under the plan submitted Thursday four health centers would be built each year, so that at the close of Mayor Walker's present term sixteen centers would have been completed.
Divine Tells G. O. P. Club
Unemployed Need
Insurance
The preliminary report was received by Mayor Walker and the committee was reassured of his support to the plan to have the Board of Estimate and Apportionment appropriate $4,000,000 in the next four years for the erection of four health centers each year. The committee agreed to obtain outside financial expenses its overhead and operating expenses and through the generosity of the Milkman Memorial Fund was enabled to engage a small staff to supervise the committees studies and other activities and to name a director. It also provided that it would place before the Mayor-tailed plan of the proposed program for health centers in February and the conference was called to consider this proposal.
In the meantime Commissioner Wynne had included in the corporate stock budget for 1930 an appropriation of $1,500,000 for the Department of Health for the erection of health centers and for the purchase of sites for six of these year. As the Mayor has pledged his support of the program this sum is expected to be provided when the pressure comes before the Board of Health. Apportionment in the near future. The Mayor took all the papers, renewed the committee and assured the Commissioner and the members of the committee who called on him that he would do everything in his powers to aid the passage of the initial sum asked for the betterment of the health and welfare of the city.

Imes Urges Church To Assist Jobless
While the church is not an insurance society, it should provide unemployment protection for its members, and the Rev William Lloyd Imes, pastor of the Jesse Resbyterian Church, before a meeting of the Appomattox Republican Club, 315 West 126th street, Tl. risday evening.
Such a step would be a decided aid in settlement of social conditions, the divine said. Much of the unemployment in Harlem, however, the speaker declared, is caused by the lack of training for skilled work on the part of Negroes.
The minister told his hearers that political parties must think more of the social welfare. He offered as remedies for the situation; birth con- dition, a cheek to the training of children, uneducated impoverished health measures for all the people, and constructive action, pressure by political organizations, co-operation with other racial groups, and sound investment.
Aaron Smith and William Cornellus arranged the program on unemployment, and Hamilton J. Travis presided. Mrs. Lucile Zeumer, president of the Academy Tenants' Association, headed a delegation of white women who attended the meeting. She urged that a large group of tenants attend the hearings on the new rent law introduced in the Legislature by Assemblyman Lamar Perkins. Mrs. Jane Crolley, head of the club's welfare committee, will head the body going to Albany.

Gold Star Mothers To Be Jim-Crowed
Government to Submit to Southern Prejudices in Arranging Schedules
The ignorant and prejudiced South is again catered to in this case of unjustifiable segregation when the officials in making plans for the trip decided to separate the two military units, so that such a large group of the mothers and widows "came from the South." Several protests have been sent to the War Department, among them being a letter by Alderman Fred R. Moore, asking that all pilgrims be sent overseas on the same boat at the same time. Quantum master of the tour, who charges of the tours and in his reply to Alderman Moore stated that his petition would be given full consideration.

The pilgrimages will begin in May and will continue during the summer months for two years. Congress has appropriated funds for the tours, which will allow the mothers and widows of American soldiers buried overseas to visit their graves A period of two weeks abroad is allocated each pilgrim and all expenses will be paid.

Harlem Democrats Seek Negro Chiefs
Organization Asks Curry for Leaders in 19th and 21st
Resolutions asking that Negroes be appointed as leaders in the Nineteenth and Twenty-first Assembly districts were presented to John F. Curry, white, leader of Tammany Hall. Inst Wednesday by the Harlem Progressive Democratic Association, a newly formed organization of voters in Harlem.
The association, of which Dr. Oma H. Price is the president, protests in its resolutions to Mr. Curry against "the segregated and apportive leadership of the Democratic party in New York City," declaring it to be both "undemocratic and thoroughly unrepresentative of the needs and aspirations of the Negro." Despite the overwhelming majority of Negro voters in these two districts, the association charges that all executive positions in the Democratic organizations of the Nineteenth and the "Twenty-first Assembly districts are held by whites. "We believe," the resolutions read, "these conditions to be most demoralizing and humiliating to the Negro and prevent a considerable number of Negroes from coming into the Democratic party."
Mr. Curry is called upon "to terminate the cause of these conditions in the name of social justice and democratic government by allowing

The Tiger Goes in for Hospitalization
THE FIVE-YEAR FIGHT to secure larger representation for Negro physicians and surgeons in Harlem Hospital was rewarded last Thursday when Victory came striding through the community on the back of the Tammany Tiger, which left in its wake unanswered charges of incompetence at the door of John F. Connors, white surgical director and president of the new board, the alleged appointment of inexperienced men to the staff, and the ousting of one of the two or three Negro physicians who were identified with the original fight to get Negro doctors in the hospital. The victory consists in the removing of one of the gravest difficulties with which the Negro physician here has had to contend, namely, limited hospital training, facilities and recognition.
BECAUSE of the many claimants to the honor of bringing about this victory, it is well to keep the record straight, or as straight as it can be kept, and place the credit where it rightfully belongs. Many men and several organizations had talked and labored to secure for the Negro physician representation in Harlem Hospital, but the first to do anything definite about it was Dr. Charles A. Butler, president of the Citizens' Welfare Council. On May 4, 1925, at what was called a Better Day dinner, given under the auspices of the council at Calvary Independent Methodist Church, Dr. Butler, a chiropodist of note and an indefatigable civic worker, took up the matter of opening up Harlem Hospital to the Negro doctor. There were no internes in the hospital, no Negro nurse supervisors and very few Negro employees of any kind.
OUT OF THE DINNER-MEETING there grew a committee which was delegated to confer with Mayor Hylan, with a view to securing his aid in removing the color bar which kept the Negro doctor out of this city institution. On the committee were the following: Dr. Butler, Drs. Godfrey Nurse and U. Conrad Vincent, the Revs. A. C. Garner and John W. Robinson, Mrs. Louis A. Corbin, James H. Hubert and J. A. Rogers, representing The Amsterdam News. Prior to the time this committee saw Mayor Hylan, Dr. Butler appealed to The Amsterdam News for editorial support, which was given, and a petition was circulated in the columns of the paper appealing to the mayor to support the just demands of the community. The late Dr. E. Elliott Rawlins supported the move in his "Keeping Fit" column; and while they did not appear with the committee, Louis A. Corbin, D.D.S., and Allen B. Graves, M.D., were identified with the council's project.
AS A DIRECT RESULT of these efforts, Drs. D. B. Johnson (deceased), Louis Wright, Lucien Brown, Ralph Young and James W. Granady received appointments to the hospital staff. A little later the first internes were admitted and the first nurse supervisors appointed. Even more recently an editorial in The Amsterdam News called attention to the fact that the Negro physicians were not being promoted beyond the places especially created for them in the beginning and scored the childish way they were being treated.
THE AMSTERDAM NEWS is proud of the assistance it gave to Dr. Butler and the Citizens' Welfare Council. It is proud of the promotions and the increased number of doctors that have been admitted to the staff by virtue of the reorganization; but it protests most strenuously against the sidetracking of competent physicians who, five years ago, were the only ones who had vision enough to identify themselves with the men and women who worked to bring about the victorious result — men whose ability is beyond question — and the replacing of them with men of little or no experience in the work they are to be called upon to do, simply because they are members in good standing of the United Colored Democracy, or any other political club. The first of these men to be given the gate was Dr. Godfrey Nurse, who was let out under suspicious circumstances a little over a year ago; another is Dr. U. Conrad Vincent, who was dropped from the staff last week under still more suspicious circumstances.
THE DIRTY HAND of Tammany Hall is seen as clearly in the reorganization of Harlem Hospital as it is seen in the investigation of the magistrates' courts—the two fields above all others which should be free of petty politics. Proficiency in medicine and surgery should and must be made to mean more than personal differences and political affiliations. The Tammany Tiger must not be permitted to feed on human lives.
The Haitian Commission
Commission has been appointed. The universal desires and expectations of the Negro race have been disappointed. The President has departed from the general policy of the government in dealing with Negro governments. Frederick Douglass, Emmett J. Scott and Charles S. Johnson have served on similar commissions. From one point of view, the Negro race was more highly honored by the appointment of Johnson than it would have been by racial recognition on the Haitian Commission. The commission and international body on which a Negro, for the first time in American history, is the sole representative of the United States as a negotiant with representatives from other nations. Although it is difficult to remain calm and composed in the face of disappointment and the grim, let us see how the President mind
I. Mr. Hoover is not politically minded. His highest aim is to bring efficiency to the public service. With this end in view, he ignores politics, section and sex and is not available for the position. His high standard is beyond the comprehension of the practical politician. The Haitian Commission, in its personnel, ranks with the Naval Commission now sitting at the Court of St James. Forbes Ambassador St James have practically the same preliminary diplomatic experience as governors of the Philippine Islands. Ambassador Fletcher more than balances Ambassador Morrow. Both have been Ambassadors to Mexico; but Mr. Fletcher has had the more experience in career. William Allen White is unpassed in grasp of public questions by any other American publicist.

HAITIAN COMMISSION
The Haitian Protective Union Gets Answer to Letter to Hoover.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News: Shr:
Commenting upon the members of the Haitian Investigation Committee, The New York World of Feb. 8 stated: "Possibly acceding to the wishes of Louis Borno of Haiti, who has signified a willingness that white men compose the Commission's President address the supplemental members of investigators to be headed by Dr. Moton." The Union views this as a most malicious and unkind performance, having but one object "to divide, to kill the sympathy shown by colored Americans for Haiti's cause. We have been criticized for our failure, for late events have portrayed us as complicit. Borno has no right to speak for the Haitian people nor attribute his personal feelings to them.
the opportunity for a person of the Negro race to sit upon this commission was welcomed by different newspapers. La Presse of Port-au-Prince, in the issue of Jan. 15, reprinted an article from The New York Amsterdam News demanding a Negro. This organization, the New York branch of the Union, on Jan. 6 wrote to President Hoover appealing to him, begging him "in the name of efficiency" to appoint Negro. We suggested to him Capitol, B. Marshall, who, we know, is informed about conditions in Haiti. A letter from the State Department, dated Jan. 17, acknowledges our letter. Mr. Borno's willingness might be the reflection of the Southern whites who are in control in

The first transportation line on Loma Lake is called the "Miles on a pleasant road" or 18 shillings in a convenient wagon." It was started in 1772 and ran from New York to Long Island in 1430.

Writer Believers Dr. Hobart Was Justified in His Statement on Negro Christians.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News: I have read in your issue of February 12 that about eighty Negro ministers are about to sever connections with the Greater New York Federation of Churches because Dr. Hobart objects to the shifting about of Negroes.
Why all of this excitement? Is it possible that our Negro ministers fail to see that the question is more economic than eclecticist? When are Negro people, especially Negro ministers, going to see with the eyes of white men their ministers that the right to live on earth is precedent to the expectant life in heaven?
When Negroes move into white neighborhoods, white people take fright and run away, even from their spiritual leaders, and, while they fill the vacancies in the church they certainly do not maintain it financially with their small earnings. Is it any wonder that white ministers object and protest? And who wouldn't? (Signed) ARTRUR L. WHARTON, N.B. West 128th street, New York, 1280. Feb 14, 1930.

QUESTIONS
Library Notes
the American Negro's mind. The appointment of a Negro would keep the race question to the fore, which Mr. Hoover, as well as the Haitian people, wants to relegate to the background.
Let it be carefully noted that no Southern man of known and pronounced attitude was chosen. It seemed to be the policy of previous administrations to appoint Southern men to high station in Haiti on the score that the Southern men best how to deal with the Negro. This concept, mentally broken down and, in fact, lies at the basis of much of the mischief which must now be corrected.
III. The Haitians have imbued the French rather than the Anglo-Saxon culture, and do not feel any interiority complex on account of race. The Americans have stamped the Afro-American as a socially inferior class. The Haitians regard them as the appraisement which their fellow anthemmen oppose them. They think it an insult to send in a diplomatic capacity a representative of a socially discredited class. The acceptance of such a representative tends to degrade them to the social level to which the Afro-American has been assigned. While the Afro-American can feel the sting of such affront by a nation of his own race and conceive, understand, the underlying understanding. According to the strict logicality of the Gallic mind, no man who is deemed unfit to function in his own government at home is fit to represent it abroad.
IV. By reason of the strained social relations between the races in this country, it is extremely important that we find a highly competent body of white men who would have been willing to serve with a colored man in all of the social intimacies that efficient functioning of this competition must be the most semblance of social differentiation among the membership of
BECAUSE we never know when we are going to die or what our financial condition will be when we do, most of us have life insurance. Most of us have the feeling that we prefer a final resting place in the cemetery rather than the Potter's Field and want to leave something instead of nothing to those near and dear who survive us. Because we never know when the house in which we live is going to catch fire and destroy all the things we have labored for and treasure, most of us who are wise have fire insurance. We know that every article of furniture, every picture, book and book represents a certain number of hours of labor and loving care, and we want to get back a fire, we at least went to get back the money we paid for it.
March Opportunity
In the March issue of Opportunity Irène Castle McLaughlin, who as Irene Castle inaugurated the vogue of the Negro orchestra, writes sympathetic of James Reese Europe, creator of the Fox Trot. John Davis, whose story, "Ruth Trent Cries," received honorable mention in O'Brien's anthology of the best short stories of the most
And so it goes with us in business and travel. We might get injured or killed on that trip to Chicago, Boston or Atlanta, so we take out travel insurance. We might have our place of business broken into and robbed, so we take out burglar insurance. Circuses and fairs insure themselves against inclement weather, dancers against foot injuries, or attackers. Even nations have in their armies and navies a form of insurance against invasion.
How much more logical is it that Negroes in America should take out insurance against the many lilies that are liable to befall them at any time because of color prejudice and discrimination. A Negro dies but once, very infrequently has his home gutted by flames, seldom has his business burglarized and does not often meet with an accident while traveling, but he is never inexperienced in form of racial discrimination or segregation that hurts pride, prestige and bookhook.
Since we well know that this can happen to any Negro, it is strange that so few Negroes see the need of taking out insurance against such an eventuality. There is abuse of individual Negro will not get into some brave through no fault of his own that may end in serious injury to him. There was recently an instance of that in New York where Negro riders in the subway were set up by white subwaymen to outrage with the Commandant of the Brooklyn Navy Yard and as a result that officer issued a general order to all of his men warning them against attacking Negroes and even permitted Negroes to seek for the culprits on board the battleships. The Negroes were housed in Jamaica, New York, in a so-called white district. His windows were smashed by white hoodlums and the peace and safety of his family life endangered. The N. A. A. G. P. got immediately on the job, had a police-man assigned to protect the family, and searched for those who had threatened him.
It seems to me that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which is our only organization offering protection against the many lilies that beset us as victims of violent harassment against the increase of these lilies. For that reason Nerroes who hesitate to support it or quibble over giving such support for children and narrow reasons, are just noticing off their nose to suit their face. Those Negroes are indeed the victims of violence and vicious of the insurance against injustice offered by the N. A. A. C. P.

V. As a salve to soothe the wounds of Afro-America, the President designated Dr. Moton of Tuskegee to make an educational survey of the Island with a view to encouraging the advancement of African constructive lines. By this happy stroke, he at once pays a compliment to the race to which the Hattians belong, and at the same time avoids wounding their sensibilities by divorcing such racial recognition from diplomatic circles. The Tuskegee idea which Dr. Moton imbibes and embody represents the educational adaptation to the needs of unfortunate and retarded peoples. His findings will carry great weight with the political and philanthropic circles in America who are in a position to render the needed aid. This designation also indicates Mr. Hoover's sure policy in dealing with Afro-America. He begins little or no need to the demands, but stands ready and willing to help the race in a very practical way when a constructive program is presented.
VI. This incident ought to serve to bring the American Negro to his political sense. Our statesmen pay no heed to his wild assertions and loud demands. He counts as a negligible factor in the political equation. Mr. Hoover is deaf to what the Negro wants, but accords him what he thinks he needs. He knows fully well that there will be no political epistle to him, like to both political parties when it comes to a recognition of his hoasted claim for equal political consideration. The Negro must harry at Jericho till his political bearings. In the meantime he had better devote his chief energies to constructive advancement along social, industrial and cultural lines.

Philadelphians Seek Better Employment
Form Organization to Open Up Work With Public
Form Organization to Open Up Work With Public
PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 17.—A permanent committee, composed of business, clerical, professional and lay leaders of this city, was formed in the offices of the Philadelphia Tribune last Friday afternoon, with more general employment of Negroes in public service corporations as its objective.
The purpose of the committee was outlined by E. Washington Rhodes, chairman of the meeting, and editor of the Tribune. The Armstrong Association social service organization of this city, is also a lender in the movement.
A visitor at the meeting was Forrester Washington, director of the Atlanta School of Social Service. It was the opinion of Mr. Washington that, if the Negroes throughout the country did not take the initiative in getting jobs, they would soon be "down and out."
It was reported that as a result of agitation on the part of the Armstrong association, Negro clerk had been given employment in an Atlantic and Pacific grocery store in West Philadelphia.
The committee was formed into a permanent organization and is composed of E. Washington Rhodes, chairman; Wayne Hopkins, secretary-treasurer; Orrin C. Evans, publicity director; Joseph Trent, contractor; John Marquess, exalted ruler of Quaker City Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. W.; Magistrate Edward W. Henry, exalted ruler of O. V. Cottage Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. W.; Julian St. George, White, Henry W. Porter, E. C. White, the Rev John Logan, the Rev Marshal Sharp, Lent Trent Bordon Alex Manly, W. Rollo Wilson, Samuel Wade and William Hagans.
ed this evening at the Russell Sage Foundation, 130 East Twenty-second street. Senator Seabury C. Mastick, chairman of the commission, will be the principal speaker

ALCOHOL has been a very important product throughout the civilized world because of its many uses, especially that of a beverage. Since prohibition in the United States, the alcoholic content of all beverages has engaged the attention of the entire nation as no other event of public life. As a result of prohibition, the daily consumption of "bootleg" and "home made" liquor has brought about a menace which threatens to undermine the health of the masses.
There are two common alcohols—methyl or wood alcohol; and ethyl alcohol, the one used in beverages. Methyl alcohol occurs in nature, and is prepared on a large scale from the products of the destructive process. When wood is heated in iron containers out of contact with air, gases are given off and water, methyl alcohol, vinegar and other products collect in a receiver, leaving wood-charcoal behind. Even after a great many refining processes, the alcohol remains poisonous to human tissue and is used intensively as a solvent in the manu-
facture of certain dyes, varnishes and other commercial products. Wood alcohol cannot under any circumstances be made to use internally. The large number of deaths in the early days of prohibition from this form of alcohol is still far from our memory.
The technique of the manufacture of ethyl alcohol in other alcohol containing drinks, together with the many sources from which they may be derived, are too well known to the average housewife to require any further description.

Heflin Cavorts—and Snorts!
(For the Associated Negro Press)
HEPEL FLINN must do something
to get re-elected next fall; the Democratic machine of Alabama disowned him and threw him out because he refused to stand by the regular Democratic nominee, Alfred Smith, in the last Presidential election. Heflin, therefore, decided to run independent of the machine. But that is tough and expensive business, this getting elected against the machine, unless, the insurgent can stir up a great sensation. That exactly explains Heflin's present rampage. He knows that the "Negro question" is still loaded with explosives in the minds of the more ignorant voters of Alabama; and he knows that the ignorant voters are away yonder in the majority in that State. He remembers that they sent him to the Senate in the first plea against him, and he knows that he had shot a Negro about that he had in Washington.
Now that his old Democratic machine is against him and he needs to do something desperate to get re-elected this year, he has "discovered," what every other intelligent person has known all along, that a few white and colored persons get married in New York of associating like animals, which is the fashion in Alabama.
He knows well that of actual sex relations between the races there is a thousand times more of it in Alabama than in New York—that there is more of it in the city of Birmingham than in all the State of New York. But he also knows that voters who are too ignorant to be interested in any other appeal, about economics, or politics, or international relations, can yet be interested in the sex appeal. "Higher," he says, "and "in the same breath will get him more attention from a constituency like that than can any other proposition.
But let us be fair to Heflin. He did try to stir up attention and get support by some slightly less indecent activities, but they just didn't work. First, he promised his voters to throw Oscar DePriest out of the Senate lunch room, but when he saw Oscar, that individual looked altogether too husky and unconcerned. So that did not work. Next, when ex-President Taft resigned from the Chief Justicehip Beverly indicately declared that the general candidate had been "tricked" into resigning, and that there was something dark and terrible somewhere. But all the world knew better. So that did not work.
Therefore, Senator Tom, in desperation, has fallen back on the old reliable sex-aspects of the "Negro question." He thinks that will not fail him—in Alabama. He says that they need some Ku Klux Activities in New York, especially in Alabama, to some demonstration to break the "dancing" in New York, although in Alabama interracial sex relations are going on by the houseful. Perhaps Hefflin has not heard that years ago mayor Hyllan offered the Ku Klux Klan a willing permit to parade in New York, provided only that they would form and start their march from 135th street and Lenox avenue. Perhaps Hefflin is now ready to accept that the "fightin'" senator suggest that the "fightin'" senator bama shall head the parade. We confidently predict that his march will be interesting, even if very short.

facture of certain dyes, varnishes and other commercial products. Wood alcohol cannot under any circumstances be made to use internally. The large number of deaths in the early days of prohibition from this form of alcohol is still fresh in our memory. The technique of the manufacture of ethyl alcohol and other containing drinks, together with the manufacture from which they may be derived, will known to the average householder to require any further description. This has resulted in the consumption of large amounts of this raw liquor in which there are many harmful by-products. Unless more attention is paid to the purification and aging of the whiskey now being manufactured in this facility, it is important that the mortality rate from disease of the nervous system, liver and kidneys will be well above that of cancer and tuberculosis in the next ten years of prohibition.
……
Good whiskey in proper amounts not only has food value, but is a good tonic and stimulant as well. The continued use of alcohol, with its inducible products, on organs of the body such as the liver and kidneys, which take care of the assimilation and excretion of the body functions, and sooner or later they must break down.
Dental Talks

Preventive Dentistry
THE highest grade or finest type of dentistry is in itself preventive dentistry. Preventive inasmuch, as it being done as well as is humanly possible, the life or usefulness of it may be prolonged to the fullest extent. Along with this we have advantage of three other factors—greater comfort, economy and improved esthetics.
Let us take one or two cases and see if we can show exactly what we mean. The partial denture or partial plate restoring a few teeth, of those present in the mouth being supported by bony claps or other attachments, will suffice. The usual and fairly satisfactory material used in this type of restoration is rubber or vulcanite.
Let's contrast this with gold, a more expensive yet more economical material. Vulcanite at best is porous and absorbs the secretion of the mouth. After a time it becomes almost impossible to keep sweet and clean. For this, the only correction is a new denture. Gold is not porous; it will not absorb the secretions of the mouth. When the mouth is closed and at rest, the tongue occupies the entire cavity. Vulcanite deprives the tongue of a part of this space, causing annoyance and discomfort. Gold can be made much thinner without fear of fracture, as of vulcanite, thus decreasing the discomfort.
In case of future loss of natural teeth, necessitating the addition of artificial tooth to the denture, they can be added with perfect ease and safety to the gold denture, but if added on to the vulcanite denture, the revulcanization of the rubber, as is necessary, makes this denture weak and brittle.
Due to the nature of the teeth used in each case, those used in the construction of gold partial dentures lend themselves to reshaping, staining and esthetic arrangements more easily than do those used in the construction of vulcanite partial dentures.

Hotel
THEY sat in a drawing room of the hotel, ' the bald-headed, smooth-shaven, righteous-eyed. "We have given the black man civilization," they said, thinking in terms of street-cars, five-cents a ride; the intricacies of calculus, and the playgrounds of public schools. "Yes, we have given the black man civilization," they said, "civilization and God." In the lobby a brown-skinned elevator boy waited, his hand on the lever, his foot stinging the sliding door. "God, I hate this place," he thought, and remembered a black girl, and a hiding place under the trees in the park. —HELENE MAGARET. (In the February Opportunity.)
