BITTER FIGHT MARKS BAPTIST ELECTION
Hold Funeral Rites Tomorrow for Alex C. Rogers, Noted Playwright
Timely Topics OF THE WEEK
Oscar DePriest
Can't Be Bluffed
OSCAR DE PRIEST cannot be
bluffed. This one fact stands out
above all others in the thwarted at-
tempt of several white men to extort
$10,000 from him under penalty of
his death. The extortionists wrote
the Congressman that his "enemies
in Alabama" had commissioned them
to assassinate him and that they were
to be paid $5,000 for the job.
The pseudo hired killers then set
forth their virtues: They believed in
fair play, they said, and offered to
play both ends against the middle if
De Priest would give them $10,000.
The Illinois congressman's first reaction to the proposition was probably that he values his life at more than $10,000; his second, that if he gave up $10,000 for his life each time that it was demanded of him, life wouldn't be worth the living, anyway. He then proceeded to lead the "unholy three" into a trap which resulted in the arrest of two of them and the revelation that they were not killers, at all, but just plain bluffers.
COMPLAINTS having been received that highway contractors are not living up to the law requiring that they give employment preference to citizens of the state, Governor Roosevelt has requested the State Superintendent of Public Works, Colonel-Frederick Stuart Greene, to have every division engineer check up and report on work being done in his district.
This is assuredly a step in the right direction, for within the past few months charges have been made that Negro citizens have been discriminated against when applying for jobs on public works. While it does not follow, necessarily, that the contractor, who is forced to discharge his alien labor and employ citizens of New York State will not raise a color barrier based on race, to do so will increase the Negro's chances of finding a gainful occupation.
All citizens of the state, regardless of color, are entitled to first preference on building projects sponsored and paid for out of state funds. Not to give them this preference is to jeopardize the best interests of the state itself.
Sunday Drivers
SUNDAY is the most dangerous day on which to drive an automobile. This fact was deduced from the report of the American Motorists' Association for the first six months of 1930. Based also on the report is the distressing estimate that deaths from automobile accidents this year will reach or surpass the 36,000 mark, which is 3,000 more than the total number of fatalities for last year.
Most anyone who has driven an automobile for any length of time knows that the Sunday driver offers the greatest obstacle to safety. He it is who, having worked hard all week, ventures forth on Sunday for his weekly spin, his car heavily laden with human freight. We read about him and those who come in contact with him, in Monday morning's newspapers.
It is difficult to deal with the Sunday driver because his is an intangible state of mind which causes an ordinarily careful individual to become careless and reckless of his own life and the lives of others.

The Dunbar National Bank, Eighth avenue and 150th street, which was established by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., celebrates its second birthday today.
Arthur H. Thien, vice-president, in a statement Monday said the bank has shown a lusty growth in its two years of existence. Business has shown an appreciable increase in the past six months despite the unemployment situation and the business slump, Mr. Thien said.
The bank started with nine employees and now has twenty-one. Only three are white. They are the president, vice-president and cashier.

Tucker, who was one of the sensations in Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds," told the court that he was in an automobile last Wednesday night with Edward Oliver, 115 Edgecombe avenue, who was driving. The dancer was on his way to the Alhambra Theatre, 126th street and Seventh avenue, where he was starred in a musical comedy last week.

When the car started again, Duncan, who was said to have been under the influence of liquor, narrowly escaped being struck by the machine as he crossed the street against the lights. The man leaped upon the running board and plunged a knife into his shoulder, Tucker said. The dancer and Oliver seized Duncan and turned him over to Detective McCusker of the West 123d street station, who hooked the prisoner.
Despite his injuries, Tucker kept up the tradition of the stage by going on with his dancing that night. After the show he went to Harlem Hospital for treatment.
Tucker, whose dance is imitated throughout the country, lives at 161 West 140th street.

Count of Ballots for Justiceships Expected Early Today--4 Men Seeking 2 Posts
Harlem's political circles were tense yesterday when the polls opened for the primary elections at 3 p.m. With the choicest plums in the history of the community at stake, four Republicans eagerly awaited the returns on the two nominations for justices of the Tenth District Municipal Court.
It was expected that the ballots would be counted early today. Little excitement prevailed in Democratic circles, where there are no contests. The Tammany men, however, were somewhat concerned over the Republicans who may win the nominations. They frankly hoped for two disliked by the electorate enough to guarantee the Democratic candidates a chance in November.
LYNCHING OUTBURST RENEWS DEMAND FOR LEGISLATIVE ACTION
National Association for Advancement of Colored People Plans Introduction of Measure to Curb Mob Atrocities
Eighteen lynchings thus far in the current year as compared with twelve for the entire year 1929, have brought about a determination in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to campaign anew for the enactment of a Federal anti-lynching law. Attorneys of the organization under the leadership of Arthur B. Spingarn, chairman of the national legal committee, and Herbert K. Stockton, who has exhaustively studied the measure, are already at work going over the bills introduced in past sessions of Congress with a view to drafting a measure with teeth in it.

One political observer, with many years of active service in G. O. P. ranks, predicted the defeat of Assemblyman Rivers. The whites of the district, he said, are tired of having Alderman Fred R.

Silver Coin in Mouth 67 Years
NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept. 15
(ANP) --Uncle Jim Webster of
Winston Salem, N. C., defended
carrying a silver dollar in his
mouth since he was seventeen
years old by saying: "I ain't
never been sick, has I? An' Ise
84."
Of course, many people have
reached eighty-four years;
many people never have been
sick, but how many are eighty-four, never been sick and carried a silver dollar in their mouths sixty-seven years? Not many.
True it is that many have carried an Irish potato against "rheumatism," a buckeye for buck-ague, or a rabbit foot against ha'nts; but they carried them in their pockets or in a bag around the neck to ward 'em off. Carrying a silver dollar to ward off disease is something new, though it has been done by Uncle Jim for sixty-seven years.

By LOUIS R. LAUTIER
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 15.—Primary election results of last week, from the racial viewpoint of the Negro, may be summed up as a draw. Whatever gains there may come to the Negro through the absence from the Seventy-second Congress of Senator Cole L. Blease, Democrat, of South Carolina, they will be offset by the retirement of Representative Louis C. Cramton, Republican, of Michigan, and the presence in the upper body of Governor Huey P. Long of Louisiana, and former Representative James F. Byrnes of South Carolina.
Senator Blease was beaten by former Representative Bynes. Camton was defeated by Jesse P. Wolcott, an attorney of Port Huron, Mich. Gov. Long was nominated to succeed the veteran Senator Joseph E. Randsdell.
Senator Blease is a demagogue. He is an exponent of lynching. He preaches race prejudice and religious bigotry. For violence and vulgarity of speech his equal can be found. He conceives the Negro to be a tator and believes in "white supremacy."
Interracial Seminar to Hold Session in South
Announcement has been made of the formation of the American Interracial Seminar by a representative group interested in the improvements of race relations in the United States. The first session will be held at various points in the South November 11-21, upon the topic of "Negro Prog-
Byrnes was a member of the House from 1911 to 1923, retiring after his defeat by Blease in 1924. He is regarded as a hard worker. He was not friendly to the Negro and made himself conspicuous by his objections to Federal appropriations for University, having striked out one of the colleges that there was no authorization in law for them.
Mr. Crumpton was a member of the House for fifteen years. He is the chairman of the subcommittee of the House appropriations committee, having charge of the Interior Department supply bill in which are carried items for Howard University. He always favored liberal Federal appropriations for the university, especially for buildings, and he was the father of the recently passed authorizes Federal appropriations for Howard University and put a stop to the striking out of items on points of order. He was beaten by a "wet," although a recount will probably be necessary to determine the winner, the results being so close.
In Louisiana it was a choice of two evils in a dirty campaign. Ransdell has had thirty years of experience in Congress, thirteen years in the House and seventeen years in the Senate. He is required as a reactionary, vested blindly on party matters. He and his colleague fought a losing fight to prevent appointment and confirmation of Walter L. Cohen as comptroller of customs at New Orleans. Gov. Long, who defeated him, according to predictions, "will probably bring to the Senate every quality which Blease and Heflin reveal when working in concert, with touches of Brookhart and the late deceased Dardman that in it. Or he might be the anglous Louisiana prophesy by becoming conservative with success."
The defeat of Senators Blease and Ransdell brings the total of "lame duck" Senators who will sit in the next session of the Senate to five. They are Senators Charles S. Deneen, Republican, of Illinois; Joseph R. Grundy, Republican, of Pennsylvania; Furnilford M. Simmons, Democrat, of North Carolina; Coleman L. Blease, Democrat, of South Carolina, and Joseph E. Ransdell, Democrat of Louisiana.

the district, left without an organization behind him.
Because Moore was the dominant figure in this old battle, and because he is backing Rivers to the limit in the present fight, it is believed that they will refuse to vote for the assemblyman's nomination.
Whites May Bolt.
The observer expressed an opinion that the word has been passed along to the office of the president in the G, O, P in the Eleventh and Thirteenth districts. The whites, however, constitute less than 15 percent of the Republican voters in the Nineteenth.
This view of the situation was strengthened yesterday, when it was learned that some persons, evidently whites, were circulating cards calling for the elector of candidates. If Negro organization voters back him, Rivers will be nominated.
While Alderman Hawkins faced considerable opposition in the Twenty-first, it was believed that he would have the nomination when the count is made public today. Hawkins is stripped of practically all the enthusiastic support he received in the past from white G. O. P. voters in upper Hallem. They are not included in the court nomination, is believed however, that he will be acceptable to the whites in lower Hallem.
Church Supports Perkins.
One powerful organization appeared committed to Assemblyman Perkins' cause. Abyssinian Baptist Church, of which the legislator is a member, is expected to deliver at least 1,000 votes for him. The candidate who gets 2,500 votes will, in all probability, be nominated.
Billups appeared to have gained considerable strength in the past despite the conclusion that most Republicans in the Twenty-first, whom he serves as assemblyman, like him personally and respect his ability as a lawyer.
The other Republican contest is for the Assembly nomination in the Twenty-first. Edmund O. Austin, organization man, is being fought by former Alderman George W. Harris. The other Republican candidate will be between Austin and Harris, for Alston is little known in politics. Austin is conceded the odds.

Two Men Held for Trial As Apartment Prowlers
Charged with unlawful entry, two men who were arrested when their entry into a vacant apartment frightened a neighbor next door, were held in $500 bail for trial in Special Sessions, when they were arraigned Saturday in Heights Court before Magistrate Flood.
The two, James Stewart, 27, 216 Edgecombe avenue, and James Miller, 25, 17 West 127th street, told the court they were merely examining the apartment with the intention of renting it, but William Joseph, superintendent of the building, testified that a lock on the door, which had been intact a half hour before the two men were found in the flat, was broken.
Mrs. Dorothy Mont, who occupies the apartment next door to the one in which the two suspects were arrested, told the court that her home had been recently burglarized, and she became frightened when she heard the prowlers next door.

Private Detective Asks $10,000 Damages in Complaint
A suit for $10,000 charging Dr. Layton J. Wheaton, 208 West. 137th st. with east wing Herbert S. Boulin, private detective, was filed Thursday against the dentist.
The action was started in the Supreme Court by Richard E. Carey, 2376 Seventh avenue. The dentist must answer the complaint by October 1.
Mr. Boulin, who is head of the Boulin National Detective Agency, 110 East 125th street, charged that on August 24 he was assaulted by Dr. Wheaton at 138th street and Seventh avenue.
He was struck a number of forceful blows in the face and on the breast and threatened with death, according to Mr. Boulin's complaint. The injuries received caused him to be sore, and disabled, the detective said in his affidavit.
On September 6 Dr. Wheaton was arrested on charge of disorderly conduct in Helgts Court and found guilty. He was given a suspended sentence.
The dentist's alleged attack was believed to have been caused by ill feeling aroused when Mr. Boulin's investigation for a client implicated him in a divorce action three years ago.
HELD FOR ROBBREY OF
BLIND, ADMITS GUILT
Accused of the theft of clothes valued at $100 from the home of a blind man, Nelson Singleton, 28, laborer, 207 East Ninety-eighth street, was held without ball for trial in Special Sessions when arraigned Monday before Magistrate Goodman in Harlem Court on a charge of petty larceny. Singleton was arrested by Detective Drago of the East 104th street station. He is charged with stealing a firearm from the home of Smith who is blind and who lives 205 East Ninety-eighth street. Singleton when arrested is alleged to have admitted his guilt and told the police he pawned the clothing for $3. The police say Singleton has a police record, and has been convicted of grand larceny and petty larceny.
MRS. E. B. EMANUEL
WINS PROPERTY SUIT
Mrs. E. B. Emanuel, widow of Dr. Jonah Emanuel, 352 West 130th street, was the defendant and winner in an action brought against her by her stepdaughter, Miss Gussie M. Emanuel, in the Seventh district court on Monday. The unlawful detention of personal property was given as the cause of the suit, but it developed that the property is housed with the Dew Brothers Storage Company for which there is a bill of $14.75. The plaintiff, who has been studying in Europe for some time, was represented by her aunt, Mrs. Lottie Hooper, 410 West 148th street.
Holds Woman, 61, in Row
Mrs. Euice Thomas, 61, 215 East 89th street, was held in $50 ball for a further hearing when arraigned Thursday on a charge of disorderly conduct made by Mrs. Geraldine Deston of 210 East 100th street. Mrs. Deston charged that Mrs. Thomas struck her in the face with her clenched fist and then assaulted her with an ashean cover.

Cook County Grand Jury Indicts Three In Attempt to Get $10,000 From DePriest
Minor Political Figure and Milk Truck Driver Both White, Already in Custody; Another Sought-One Admits Part in Plot
CHICAGO, Sept. 15. — The frustrated attempt to extort $10,000 from Congressman Oscar DePriest as an alternative of his being "taken for a ride," has resulted in the finding of true bills today by the Grand Jury against three of the alleged principals. All three are white.
Posing as professional killers hired to assassinate DePriest, two of the extortionists were trapped Saturday soon after one of them had received $200 in marked bills that DePriest had left in a shanty at their direction.
Julius Link, a minor political figure in DePriest's district, and Solly Lason, a milk truck driver, are the two in custody, while a third, Joseph Goldstein, is being sought by police. Aaron Moshelk, also white, who was accused of plotting the extortion attempt voluntarily to the State's Attorney's office was released after satisfying the investigators that he was not involved in his conspiracy. Lason, police said, admitted his part in the plot and was held under $25,000 bonds. Link's bond was fixed at $50,000 because he had a minor record with the police.
certain high officials in Washington and Alabama, we demand from you $10,000.
Threatening death if he informed the authorities, the blackmailers instructed him to insert an advertisement in the Chicago Daily News expressing his agreement to the proposition and also telling him to have ready or instill delivery personally a package containing $10,000 in five, ten and twenty dollar denominations."
A telegram on Wednesday gave Mr. DePriest "one more day of grace." On Thursday and Friday his advertisement appeared in the newspaper. Friday afternoon brought a letter of instructions, which he followed, accompanied by two policemen in plain clothes.
In a designated spot in an elevated state, he found a match box containing directions in a sharpy, near
The plotters announced their purpose in a letter received by Mr. DePriest on last Monday morning at his Chicago office. Signed "Brooklyn Rats," it informed him that they were to receive $5,000 to assassinate Mr. DePriest and decided to "play the middle against both ends," the extortionists wrote:

Woman Sends Knife Into Eye of Rival
Bail Denied Suspect Held in Assault; Police Uncover Record
Accused of stabbing another woman in the eye during a street fight on Friday night. Frances King, 34, 2 West 132d street, was held without ball for further hearing when arraigned Saturday in Heights Court before Magistrate Flood, on complaint of Pearl Macklin, 8 West 135th street.
The two women, according to the story told police, were infatuated with the same man, and when Mrs. King met her rival on the corner of 135th street and Fifth avenue, the two came to blows. The prisoner is have taken a penknife from her purse and plunged it into Miss Macklin's right eye.
The wounded woman was taken to Harlem Hospital, while her alleged assailant fled from the scene. At the institution she was treated by Dr. Perry. Her condition is said to be serious.
Detective Connolly of the West 136th street station obtained a description of the alleged assailant from Miss Macklin, and arrested Mrs. King at her home. She denied the stabbing.
Police records show that Mrs. King is also known under the names of Kingston, Johnson and Daniels. On May 13, 1918, she received a suspended sentence for felonious assault, and on Oct. 16, 1919, was freed on a similar charge, according to the record, which also sets forth that she was arrested on Oct. 15, 1923, for soliciting, and was sentenced to 100 days in the workhouse. Later she was arrested twice for robbery and felonious assault, but was dismissed on both charges.

Alleged Collector Slain in Struggle
Man Facing Court Says He Took Gun and Shot in Defense
A homicide charge was pending today against Gonzales Lorente, 33, 333 West Fifty-ninth street, who allegedly confessed that he slew Frank Armas, 30, a Cuban "policy" collector, Thursday morning.
Lorente told police of the West Forty-seventh street station that he wrested Armas' gun from him in a desperate struggle and shot him three times. The dead man had accused him of being a "stool pigeon," Lorente said.
The killing took place at 333 West Fifty-ninth street, where Lorente said he was met by Armas, who had a drawn revolver. The alleged "policy" man backed him into the hallway and threatened him with death, he said.
Prodding him with the gun and forcing him to mount a flight of stairs to a bar, Armas shot at him, orte declared. A large roll of oilcloth fell on Armas and, in the resulting confusion, Lorente said he got possession of the gun.
Armas then started at him with a knife, according to Lorente, and he defended himself by firing three shots into the man's body. Police found Armas' body in the deserted spakeasy.

Riley's Beach Injunction Postponed by Bronx Court
The hearing on the temporary injunction obtained by white residents of Throggs Neck against Solomon Riley and his Bronx beach, which was scheduled for Friday in the Bronx Supreme Court, was postponed to September 26.
Mr. Riley reported Monday that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has agreed to help defray expenses of the legal fight to retain and keep the beach. William T. Andrews, 200 West 138th street, has been retained by Mr. Riley, represent him in the battle against the whites who seek to close his property.
The Harlem realtor, who heads the Elizer Realty Company, which leased the beach to the Inter-Fraternity Council, contends that the temporary injunction and a threatened permanent one are evidence of a plot to keep Negroes from bathing in the Bronx.
Virginia Primary Ends in Victory
Circuit Court of Appeals
Decision Becomes
Effective
RICHMOND, Va., Sept. 15—Citizens here rejoiced Saturday when it was announced that the James O. West case, in which the Virginia Democratic primary election law was declared unconstitutional in the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals, will not be taken to the United States Supreme Court.
Alfred E. Cohen counsel for West, said no steps were taken by the election committee to the case to carry it to higher court. The time limit for noting an appeal has expired.
The case grew out of a suit instituted by West against A. C. Billey, William Boltz, and William Wicker, white election judges, for $5,000 damages for being denied the right to vote in the primary April 2, 1998, appeal was noted in the Federal Court, when a jury awarded West a verdict of $5.
West appealed from the judgment to the United States Circuit Court for the Fourth Circuit, and Judge Groner's ruling was sustained in a unanimous opinion downed at Asheville, N. C., June 12, 1930.

Middle-Aged Woman Looks On While Young White Lover Slays Her Husband
Columbia, South Carolina, Scene of Many Mob Atrocities and Stamping Ground of Blease, Has Tragic Triangle
COLUMBIA, S. C., Sept. 15 (ANP).—In this section of the country where laws prohibit white women from marrying colored men and mobs lynch colored men accused of or caught associating with white women, but where white men are permitted to carry on "after-dark and back door love affairs" with colored women, there has come to light a love affair which not only revealed the affection existing between the principals, but also that the white man was enjoying the proceeds of his colored sweetheart's labors.
The BUSINESS GUIDE
The eternal triangle, possessing one "white side" and two darker ones, was composed of Eugene Canon, a 46-year-old farmer; his wife, Mary Belle, one year his junior, and Wilbur Holley, a 23-year-old white youth, who was infatuated with Mrs. Canon.
For months neighbors have observed young Holley visiting the Canon home and driving the automobile, and having a delightful encounter each week. Rumor had it that the elderly woman lavished gifts of various values on her youthful and white lover while her husband struggled to make ends meet.
The 46-year-old husband was shot down and killed by the white youth Sunday morning, following an argument between the two men over the affections of the woman. At first the killing was a mystery. Neighbors found and the usual verdict of "killed by unknown parties" was in the making.
The investigating officers turned their suspicious to the home of Holley, where they found a dew-spattered shotgun, which had been recently fired. The calibre of the gun filled with that from which the death-dealing shell had been fired and young Holley was placed under arrest.
The youth at first denied that he

had killed Canon, but under cross-examination confessed that he had fired the fatal shot.
Testimony by the youth and his elderly sweetheart brought out the fact that on Saturday evening young Holley had gone with Mrs. Canon, as usual, to deliver several "washings." En route home they bought a few drinks and took a ride to sober up a bit.
In the meantime, the tired husband was awaiting his soulmate. She arrived about midnight in company with her white lover. He upbraided both of them and threatened to kill the youth.
Just as dawn was breaking Sunday morning Canon was aroused by a noise on the outside and went to investigate. As Canon reached the door, he was arrested and he fell to the ground mortally wounded from gunshot wound inflicted by his white lover while she stood by the white youth's side.
Holley was held, charged with murder in the first degree. The woman is being held as an accomplice.
A study of the dead man's effects revealed that he had a trifle more than $1,000 worth of life insurance, of which his wife is named the beneficiary.

Sunday Peaceful Sessions.
The Sunday sessions were marked by devout religious services in contrast to the turbulence of the preceding days. Three general sessions of the convention were held in Salem M. E. Church, the closing session of the Women's Auxiliary Church in the Mount Morail Baptist Church.
The morning meeting of the Women's Auxiliary was addressed by the Rev. O. J. Allen of Norfolk, Va., who preached on "The Dynamic Power of the Kingdom." This meeting was ended in time for the women to join in the afternoon mass meeting on foreign missions held by the general conventions in the Salem Church. Dr. A. Graham of Washington, executive secretary of the mission board, presided at the afternoon meeting. This year marks the one hundredth anniversary of the inauguration of this foreign mission movement, originally known as the Lott Carey Convention, and Dr. Graham's report was illustrated by brief addresses from three men from foreign fields trained by the mission board. The Rev. Samuel B. Stubblebelford of Liberia, the Rev. D. A. Timpson of Boston, the Marquess and the Rev. D. B. Idahon of South Africa, related stories of their conversion and subsequent education in this country.
The final session of the Women's Auxiliary was presided over by the president, Mrs. M. A. B. Fuller of Austin, Texas. The Sunday sessions of the convention did not consider the dispute between Dr. Huse and Dr. Jones. The report of the committee, sent out to effect a solution, continued to lie on the table until the Monday sessions, in which the adjourned Women's Auxiliary joined the general convention. Election Causes Strife. Perhaps the stormiest sessions of the entire convention were held on Friday when the body attempted to arrest the officers. From 8:30 a. m. until 8:40 a. m. the delegation moved over the president without filling the office. The two opposing candidates, Bishop Hurse of Kansas City, incumbent, and Dr. S. J. Jones of Okla-

home, represented two almost equally strong factions. So bitter were the denunciations hurled by the candidates and their supporters at each other that, only the high-arched roof of Salem remained to remind one that the meeting was a religious one. "Dishonest" was one of the mildest imprecations uttered by those who sought the election of their candidates.
Stay in Church All Day.
At 8:30 p. m., after a conference of the two candidates, the body decided to continue the business of electing a president on Saturday morning and the evening program was continued. Most of the delegates had remained at the church all day, not even daring to go outside to eat lest "something be put over on them" as one minister termed it.
Dr. Vernon Johns, president of Virginia Theological Seminary and College, Lynchburg, Va., delivered the principal address. In speaking of "The Things Which the Race Must Learn," Dr. Johns said: "We, as a race, have become intolerant of any criticism that may be directed toward us. There is no reason to be angry, and we should face facts willingly, though they may be unpleasant. The question is not how far have we come, but how far we are yet to go? We must have a frank appraisal of ourselves."
Characterizing the sin of indifference as "the gossest of all sins," the educator said: "One thing is worse than a lack of opportunity and that is to show yourself unworthy of the opportunity when it does come."
The Negro must also learn to create, Dr. Johns said, and must realize that everything in the world had to be made. The Negro can take heart because the race is young, he said. In conclusion, he asserted that the Negro also needs to learn more about sacrifice and that nothing can be accomplished without sacrifice and suffering "Our future depends and is determined by what we do for ourselves and not what someone else does for us" he said. Dr. Johns divided his allotted time with the Seminary Quartet, which sang four spirituals. The convention had voted earlier in the day to support the school which Dr. Johns and the young men who are students of the institution represented.
A musical program preceded the address of Dr. Johns. Numbers were offered by the male quartet from the Piney Wood School of Piney Wood, Miss., and one from Mt. Morlah Baptist Church, chorus from the Mountains Covenant, and the direction of Mrs. Lula Mae Hurse of Kansas City, and solos by Mrs. Mamle Richardson of Detroit, Mrs. Hurse, Miss Fannie Bell Smith of Kansas City, Miss Olive Hopkins, and S. J. Perkins. James S. Watson, assistant corporation counsel and Democratic candidate for justice of the Municipal Court, was convicted and made a short talk which he welcomed the body to New York.
An impressive feature of the evening was the mass attendance of the 1,100 women delegates who were in session at their meeting at the Mt. Morlah Baptist Church. Dressed in white and carrying white banners with a red cross and the words, "In this sign we conquer," the group, headed by its president, Mrs. M. A. B. Fuller, marched to Salem in a body.
Thursday was Home Mission Day at the convention. Devotionals at morning session were conducted by the Revs. John B. Vance and T. Ouffitt of Jacksonville, Fla., and Lexington, Ky., respectively. Speakers for the meeting were Dr. Ira M. Hendon, marketing secretary of the Home Mission Board; Dr. J. P. Robinson, chairman, and Dr. Ernest R. Hall of Cleveland. Each spoke of the progress of home missions in the past fifty years. The afternoon was devoted to the making of reports.
The West was represented at the evening session when the Rev. G. L. Prince of Denver, Colo., delivered a sermon to the thousands of delegates and visitors who crowded the

Witnesses in Pierson Murder Hearing Tell of Plot to Kill Baptist Auditor
Slain Man's Son and Widow Bare Enmity Shown by Townsend—Doctor Says Suspect Confessed Crime Shortly After Slaying
SCOTTSBURG, Ind., Sept. 15 (ANP).—When counsel for the State and for the defense rested at half after four Saturday afternoon at the conclusion of testimony in the court action described as the general denial to the return for the writ of habeas corpus and the plea for admission to bail in behalf of George Washington, indicted for first degree murder in connection with the death of Edward D. Pierson, Sr., auditor and efficiency expert for the National Baptist Convention, evidence had been written into the record exposing an alleged murder plot of amazing cruelty.
Despite the evidence disclosed, however, Judge John R. Carney, white, of the Sixth Judicial circuit of Indiana, allowed the plea for bail and the amount was set at $10,000 through the agreement of the opposing counsel.
Edward D. Pierson, Sr., was found with six bullet holes in his body, neck and feet stitched with ropes, to which had been attached a suit case and a grip, clinging to a willow branch on the bank of the Muscatatuck River, April 16, of this year.
In June, George Washington, described as an Indianapolis gunman; Arthur M. Townsend, Sr., secretary of the publishing board of the National Baptist Convention, and Arthur M. Townsend, Jr., his son, were indicted for the murder.
So far the Townsends have not been apprehended by the Indiana authorities. A plea for their extradition was recently denied by the Governor of Tennessee, who held that inasmuch as they were neither in the State of Indiana at the time the crime was committed, they could not be considered facilities from justice.
It was further learned from the testimony of Dr. Edward Adams that Washington had visited him at his home at midnight after the morning of the murder and informed him that the "awful job is done." The next afternoon he showed Adams the blood stains on his car and how he had shoved Pierson under the rumble seat of the car after he had been shot.
"I drove about 25 miles out of Louisville, then pumped him six times, and drove again like hell for 15 miles." Adams testified Washington informed him.
Mrs. Pierson and her son admitted that feeling existed between her husband and Townsend.
"Mr. Pierson had prepared a report criticizing the operation of the publishing house by Dr. Townsend which was read at the Tampa, Florida, meeting of the convention board," she stated.
She also asserted that the feeling was such between the two men that Townsend refused to see Plerson in his office for almost two years prior to the skying. Whenever Plerson had instructions for Townsend, he was compelled to write them to him, although the two men occupied offices in the same building. Edward E. Plerson, Jr., the dead man's son, declared that the friction against his father had reached such heat that the latter had determined to surrender his position at the FOR PERFECT EYEGLASSES CONSULT

In addition to a check for $10 from Townsend to Washington which was endorsed by the Rev. E. J. F. Westbrook of Indianapolis before it was cashed. Sergeant Claude White told of finding $350 on Washington's person when he met him, the same woman's Christian Association building in Indianapolis.

THERE is now a new way of whitening the skin. Of clearing darkness, freckles, blotches away. A way that experts are advising, and women by the thousands adopting. In many cases it acts almost overnight; it contains none of the irritant elements common to old-time "bleaches." A safe way, at last, to bleach the skin to ivory clearness. You apply it tonight, just like cold cream. Tomorrow noticeable results are seen. In a few days your skin is marvelous white and clear. Imperfections gone, soft as a child's; wrinkles and blackheads have disappeared. It is called Golden Skin.

Beauty that quickens pulses years younger looking
Creme . . . the discovery of a world-famed laboratory devoted exclusively to skin whitening research. Some 30 eminent doctors, scientists and skin specialists worked in its development. 10 years were spent perfecting it. 1,000 formulae were tried and discarded before the right one was found. Thus it marks a new era in modern beauty culture. And supplies entirely old-time methods. Its bleaching agent is one of the most potent healing agents known. One that virtually every doctor uses. Old-time bleaches depended too often for their results on irritant elements. It makes a dark skin a needless folly for any woman to suffer—even for another day. Some 500,000 women now employ it. It is sold at all drug and department stores. And results unqualifiedly guaranteed, or money returned.

"A few years ago, my health was very bad," writes Mrs. A. J. Seymour, 3195 N. Tile Ave, Birmingham, Ala., whose picture is printed above.
"I did not feel equal to the task we have from day to day. I suffered quite a bit with pains in my side and back. I was very weak.
"I knew that I must take something to keep up. I saw Cardui advertised and decided to try it. I am glad I did that, and after taking my first bottle, took three in all, and was greatly improved."

TODAY the Dunbar National Bank of New York celebrates the second anniversary of its existence. C. C. Huitt, president of the institution, has issued a letter to the patrons of the bank. In part, he says the following: "This is our birthday. A two-year-old is never very large, but we are mighty active and in a healthy, safe condition. "This institution, founded by Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., has attempted to bring to Harlem banking facilities conducted on sound banking practices, but tempered with a sympathetic understanding of the special problems of the community." The Dunbar National Bank, which is often called The Friendly Bank, has done several things for Harlem. The residents of upper Harlem have some convenient place in which to keep their money; more than a dozen Negroes are employed by the bank, and some of them hold executive positions; no matter how small or how large your account is, there is a definite effort made by the personnel to make you feel at home.
This bank offers just about as many facilities as any other bank. Its checking and thrift accounts, Christmas club, investment counsel, boxes for the safekeeping of your securities and the trust department are proof of this. Further, the coming of the Dunbar National Bank to Harlem has made many of the Harlem institutions—not only banking institutions—change their attitude toward Negroes and the part they play in the business cycle. It is logical then to believe that the two-year success of this bank should serve as a stimulus to other banks and business concerns that are housed in Harlem and the vicinity—T. E. B.

Mrs. F. G. (South Carolina) says, "I am just writing you a short letter as I have not time for you as I would like to. But I must say this—that I have been wonderfully blessed since taking your medicine, Sterilite, with a fine little baby girl." Mrs. J. J. (Wisconsin) writes, "It is through your wonderful prescription, Doctor, Sterilite, that I have a ten pound baby boy and I thank you very much for your medicine." Mrs. E. L. W. (Ohio) says, "I hardly finished taking your medicine until I discovered that I was pregnant." Mrs. T. A. B. (Louisiana) says, "My last period has been a normal one, and free of pain."
I want every woman who is sick, ru
been denied the blessing of mother-
hood on account of sterility due to
functional weakness to know about
this splendid treatment. If you will
send me your name and address I'll
gladly send you a treatment and
a copy of my booklet, "A Baby in Your
Home," which tells how to use it and
many other things every married
woman should know. Both will be
sent free in plain wrapper. Just use

HOW TO LOOK Your Best
EVERY time we think the question has been answered once and for all, it pops right up again.
We let our hair grow, or we coax it to grow (as the case may be). It sometimes takes a year or two and when finally it is long enough to wear with a knot on the back of the neck, we begin to wonder if we didn't look better with it short.
And, indeed, many of us do look better with bobbed hair. We look younger and oftimes neater. Somehow it is easier to arrange and keep short hair neat.
The bob is not passe by any means. Only the short bob has lost favor. One of the most popular of styles is the long bob worn back over the ears with the hair curled up at the ends. The marcel wave is still popular, particularly with the long bob.
Because of the fact that so many women look better with bobbed hair, there is no need to fear that it is going out of style.
You will notice, too, that many hats are made especially for long bobs. They have an additional bow or drape at the back of the neck to give the back of the head a better appearance. So banish all fears concerning the popularity of the bob.
THE ART OF WATERING A FERN IS WELL TO KNOW
Watering is one of the chief secrets of success with house ferns. Remember that a fern's natural habitat is a cool, damp, shady place and it is as necessary for the fern to receive water through its fronds as through its roots. Watering too often and not enough at a time is a common mistake.
In a moderate climate ferns should have a thorough soaking once or twice a week. This is best done by placing the fern in the kitchen sink or in the bathtub and immersing the pot from three to five minutes, while sprinkling the fronds thoroughly with an old brush. Allow fern to drain well afterwards. If the air is extremely dry, two such thorough weekly soakings and a daily sprinkling of the foliage bring astonishing results to ferns.
It benefits the ferns to put them out in the rain.
Playgrounds
The New York City Recreation Committee, now a section of the City Welfare Council's division on recreation, education and neighborhood activities, is working for the establishment of a city-wide scheme of playgrounds by means of borough-wide, instead of neighborhood, assessments. For eight years the committee has been coordinating the work of fifty organizations interested in noncommercial recreation. Each of these organizations will send two delegates to form the new section, which will hold regular meetings to plan cooperative action in securing a sufficient number of well supervised play spaces in every part of the city.

No man wants to feel ashamed of his wife's appearance. A husband, as a rule, is quite sensitive on that point. He doesn't want people to say that he's letting her go around in rags. He wants her to be a modest attraction. He wants to feel proud of her. Yes, he wants her to look as attractive as she did when they were courting.
And here is a tip, wives: I really believe that your husband would rather see you spend money on yourself once in a while and not always on the home and kiddies. I don't know that he'd relish your cutting down expenses on food, however, as men don't like to have their stomachs denied. But what the heck does he care whether or not you buy a

ALLYNEY, John Gay—In and loving memory of a devoted husband who departed this life September 17.
Peaceful be thy rest, dear John:
It is sweet to breathe thy name.
In life I loved you dearly.

day by ministers to science and philology, Dr. Prince Classified knowledge will never satisfy man's spiritual needs and no amount of education without consecration will enable him to understand spiritual facts, he added in concluding his discourse.
Additional features of the evening's musical program were a soprano solo by Mrs. E. S. Bouchelle of Chicago, the spiritual Will Provide for Me", and the spiritual, "Jine the Band," by the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church Male Quartet.
More than 1,000 delegates were registered in time for the first session of the convention last Wednesday morning.

See these publications of today are Church organizations at as never before, Dr. Madison told the convention, urging more determined co-operation and faith in God. The convention choir, composed of members of Baptist throughout the city and under the direction of Prof. H. B. Johnson of Chicago, gave audience in group singing of familiar hymns. Boyd makes Report. The Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board at Nashville, dressed the convention in the afternoon on his "Baptist's Progress in Publication." Sketching in brief the publication of the National Baptist Publishing Board, which was founded in 1866 by his father, the late Rev. R. H. Boyd, Dr. Boyd said that at a St. Louis convention of 1870, when the idea was introduced, it was bitterly opposed by many Negroes who felt that the race was not yet advanced enough to attempt such a failure.
Paying a glowing tribute to the memory of his father for his faith in both the idea and the ability of Negro, Dr. Boyd said the publishing of religious works was thus same year, a whole idea, he said was the growth of the continued inclusion of the white Baptists to include the yearly reports of the Ne

"If we could give this race of ours to stop thinking about dying and pay more attention to living, they would get more jobs," declared Sherman R. Moore, the president of the York County office to the assembly on behalf of the press. "You ought to preach to the gospel of living on this earth, the gospel of getting money," he said, urging emulation of the Jew.

CHICAGO ATTORNEY
ELECTION EXPERT
CHICAGO, Sept. 15 (ANP).-The elevation of Robert L. Taylor from the position of law clerk to that of assistant attorney of the Board of Election Commissioners of Cook County calls attention to the remarkable attainment of Mr. Taylor. He is recognized as one of the best informed lawyers in the State of Illinois on questions affecting election laws. Mr. Taylor has served in the legal department of the board for many years and has become an expert in the intricacies of election law. When the legislature was considering new election laws for Cook County during the 1990s, Mr. Taylor served as an advisor to the assembly. The appointment was made by County Judge Edmund K. Jarecki, who is a Democrat. Taylor is a Republican, but his fitness overshadowed partisan political lines.

Fight for Gilpin Property Settled
a wreckle over the estate of Charles S. Gilpin, noted actor, who won fame in "Emperor Jones," ended Thursday in the Mercer County Orphans' Court at Trenton, when Alma Bynum, Gilpin's common-law wife, and his son Paul of Philadelphia were awarded a favorable verdict.
Mrs. Lillian Wood Gilpin of 767 East 224th street, who claimed to the actor's legal fate, lost her connection to the will set aside. Gilpin left $2,500, consisting of a modest home and personal property at Eldridge Park, near Trenton.
The New York woman contended that the will was not Gilpin's. Two witnesses for Miss Bynum, Mrs. Louisa Blair and John O. Gordon, testified that Gilpin gave Mrs. Blair the document and stated that it was his will.
Paul Gilpin, who was born of his father's early marriage, will share the estate with Miss Bynum, with the exception of a $25 bequest to Mrs. Lillian Brown, Gilpin's sister.

After a dress rehearsal the latter part of last week, Brown Buddies pulled up stakes for Atlantic City, where the initial showing will serve to whip the show into shape. From the New Jersey resort it will go to Baltimore and then to Pittsburgh returning to Lilly Theatre here to open Oct. 6.
With Bill Robinson, Adelaide Hall, Shelton Brooks and a number of other well known performers, it is almost a safe bet that this production will among the best for first place on Broadway. The end of October will tell the tale of what shows of color will remain in the charmed circle.

Hello, Romeo.
Well, here I am in dear old London,
and what a place!
Have been here just two hours, and
an stopting at the very hotel that drew
the line on Paul Robeson. Strange
world, isn't it? Each day ahead ship
Mr. Robeson is to be at the hotel
fare, and yesterday I received my
directions as to hotel accommodation, and
was directed to go at once to the Hotel
Chestnut to be at the walt wharf,
the English passengers, and found it
the same hotel which turned down
Paul. Well, orders is orders to me, and
when I arrived by train from Southampton
Chestnut to be at the walt wharf,
and was warmly welcomed to the
fineest of recess I have ever seen.
I haven't seen anyone to find out what it is all about. But so far, England is ahead with me. Aboard ship the ship was sent to the West Indian. They say most of the theatrical Americans of color usually dance, holler, size and run all over the boat, but our subjects, as they call the West Indians, have a certain dignity not found in the American. I have a wonderful ship fellow would be such close observers.
I'll go out soon to shake my sea leeza. Had a wonderful trip and was treated so nicely. Am inclosing under separate cover a clipping on Jack London, which I in a paper in the same issue to an ad and effect a stocking named for Florence Mills. This I found in one paper.
Took part in ship's concert, and was warmly received. In fact, acted as master of ceremonies. Buddy thought Took repose to me to the staff and Bill Pierce, the parents, Mr and Mrs Davis. When you have time drop me a line to the Pavilion Theatre. Wishing you continued success. I am going to try to do the same here. America, my country, right or wrong, my country. Your pal.

Rumor Says Buchanan Will Return to Savoy
A rumor has been going the rounds for the past week to the effect that Charlie Buchanan, who resigned from his work seven weeks ago, will be returning to take action within the next week or ten days. What becomes of the eulogies which the newspaper, boys paid to Buchanan when his announced his withdrawal from the band, to state, but it would seem that the band will want to their pen points and give Charlie a right royal welcome, with all the fixings, which will include a pean and the unequirement upon his new and sudden release of what is rumored turned out to be true. In the meantime announcement is being made that Fletcher Henderson and orchestra have been secured to play the place for the coming season of the place for the coming day night. Henderson and his musicians will remain at the Savoy for two weeks. Claude Hopkins and his Bohemians and Bobby Neal with his Ginger are also scheduled to whoop things up along with the Henderson outfit.

AND so soon Death, in as never ending journey throughout the world, stopped at the little cottage on Cumberland street, Brooklyn, and took with him when he left the soul of Alex Rogers on its flight to that Unknown Land from which there is no return. We are not as ashamed of the tears which blur our sight as we gaze upon the sheet from which these words will be taken to a concourse of friends and acquaintances in the city, and Carlton avenue section of that retreat in which he cast his home.
Home! A magic word with which to conjure. Not the enclosure of four walls, so which so many of us repaint them, so which so many of us we fly, so which so many of us dawn comes as if from the palay. Ah, kind fate, let me again live in the imagination with my mentor who so lovingly pointed out, the path to pursue that atmosphere which is loosened that atmosphere which was indeed home to him and to his friends. Home, indeed, and made so by the kind, loving, ministering hands of our beloved mother, whose women who retired from the stage to create for my Noble Roman the surroundings which, in the final analysis and the sum total of all the material, the places to which men of redeeming qualities aspire.
What matters the world's momentary applause or the envy and malice of sycophants, adventurers, parasites and an atmosphere such as that in which lived Alex Rogers and there thumb the pages of history and refresh the outourings masters. What matters the acquire wealth without the peace and contentment which only the true home can give, the home from which all brilliant minds of the Negro theological profession will be taken to its final rest. Ah, that home in which lived beloved AlexI Here in the quiet muse but inspiration came to him which brought from his creative mind those things which a jazz made world will perhaps ignore today, but in their musty hiding places to give pleasure to another generation.
The majority of those of us who lived in the decade which gave to the world the famous Williams and Walker shows will naturally associate with the music and art as dating from this period in his career, but like Jesse Shipp. Will Marion, Cook, Alda and George Walker and their associates, the foundation for their work had been born in Nashville, Tenn., Rogers went to Philadelphia and then came to New York thirty years ago. He wrote the books and lyrics for a half dozen musical comedies produced on Broadway in the days before such acurrences. He collaborated with Shipp in the writing of "Abyssina" and starred in the comedy team of Williams and Walker. Others of his works include "I, Dahomey," The Song of the Sea, "The Lord of Koal," "Go-Go," "My Magnolia" and "Sharlee."
Rogers was the author of the words of nearly 2,000 songs, many of which wrote especially for the late Bert Wilkinson, who wrote written in collaboration with the celebrated colored comedian—songs such as 'Bon Bon Buddy, the Chocolate Drop,' "That's Me," "Swing Alone," 'Why Adam Sinned,' 'May Be Cobie,' 'The Jonah Man,' and 'Nobody.' He had completed four unnamed musical comedies done in collaboration with C. Luckeyhue (Lucky-Roherts, orchestra leader and composer. Previously he had written "Elder Williams sang for phonographs Bert Williams sang for phonographs words and containing material used by Moran and Mack in radio broadcasting. In 1903 he was one of the actors of the Williams and Walker company. He was a performance before the King and Queen performance at the Ham Palace. A decade later, in New York, he and Henry S. Creamer brought out "The Old Man's Boy" at the Empire Theatre in Brooklyn, one of the many all-colored plays of its kind. Critics saw in his work some of the romantic spirit of Paul Lawrence Dunbar.
Some of the theatre's greatest celebrities in later years have used with good effect the work of Rogers. They were very apparent, after the death of Bert Williams, to the management of Flo Ziegfeld that real musical comedy productions written and staged by Negroes had passed for the time being. Rogers looked towards the few theatres catering to J. Lester Hill in his work with J. Lester Hill in his work with "Darktown Folies," which found much favor at the Lafayette Theatre, and later with G. Luckegyh Rob-
erts brought out "Baby Blues," which also met favor at the hands of colored audiences. The times were changing fast and when Alex Rogers again looked towards Harlem the revue form of entertainment had been glorified. The brain necessary for the writing of shows had its consecutive form of humor artfully intermingled with tragedy had no appeal for the newcomers who manipulated the box office. Motion pictures had supplied the things lacking in the revues and the comedy, and with his hat in his hand seeking the favor of those whom fortune favored with money but utterly without appreciation for the finer things in the Rogers turned his steps homeward, and Harlem knew him no more.
One of his last and finest gestures for the support of something above the ordinary came in the harvest of the last four days Manhattan Casuals lost for days. Nothing its kind has been seen in Harlem since. Some day "Reminiscent Days" from that presentation will be revived and will disclose that finer feeling for the players maintained to the last. In this affair he was associated with Leigh Whipper, Jesse Shipp, the late Sam Corker, Fred R. Moore, Lester A. Walton and the writer.
Earlier he had been associated with Gerry Cromwell, and Henry S. Creamer, one of the country's most prolific writers, a higher form of entertainment at the new place which, at the time, was the finesse casino catering to Negroes in the city. Rogers coming down to the audience out of the dark, explaining pictures thrown on the screen, was one of the thrills which drew many to the place, which later became a motion picture. In the scene of a most disastrous fire not very long ago.
We are not usually given to the sentimental, but when Death smatches from our midst, without warning, those figures making such contributions to the world of the dead may be the way the same figures that good fortune made it possible for us to know so well on and off the stage, one cannot help waxing enthusiastic when thoughts of the "mauve decade" are home with so much force upon the passing of one of the old-timers.

with pathos was "Nobody." Others remembered today by the more advanced generation are "Why Adam Sinned," "Swing Along," "Exhortation" and "May Be Crazy, but I Ain't No Fool."
Not only did the playwright make verses and plots for his own race, but he also wrote "The Robin and the Rose" for Norah Bayles and "Tragedy in a Garden," "Complaining," and "Happy" for Mollie Williams.
"Elder Estmore's Sermons," made famous by Bert Williams, were written by Rogers, and he wrote radio material for Moran and Mack in later years.
Began: Minstrel.
Alex Rogers was born in Nashville, Tennessee, September 4, 1876. He joined a minstrel show at the age of eighteen and came North. Soon after becoming a member of the troupe he took a place for himself in the quartet and writing lyrics for the singers.
The writer met Bert Williams and George Walker in 1902. Williams was a musician with a flair for composing tunes, and Rogers had plenty of verse in his mind, although he was only a musician. After Williams and Walker became famus, Mr. Roercs travelled with the shows he wrote for them. Their "In

So jailed were Rogers, Williams and Walker abroad that the Waverly Lodge of Freemasons in Edinburgh, Scotland, initiated the three.

THE HARLEM SKETCH BOOK BY THEOPHILIS LEWIS
She was a big time broad
From Tin Can Alley.
She made whoopee here
She made it there;
To tell the truth,
She didn't care where.
Huh? Her name? Oh, it was Sally.
Sure, Sally of Tin Can Alley.
Big men and small.
Sally kidded them all.
They'd buy her this or buy her that—
Shoes, stockings or even a hat.
But wait!
Like a story in a book,
One day she happened to meet a crook.
Oh, he was sharp,
Had plenty of dough,
Only one thing wrong—
He dipped in snow.
You don't understand what I mean by on
Why snow is dope—
I thought you'd know.
Well, he blacked her eyes.
Broke her nose.
What for? Goodness knows.
She tried to be different,
Tried to reform.
He wouldn't let her.
Kept her soul in a storm.
She must have loved him.
In her way, I mean.
Don't see how she could.
The way he socked her bean.
She'd sneak out to go to church.
Tried in her way to be good.
He told her to cut religion out;
She promised that she would.

One day he socked her—
Gee! What, a sock!
He must have had a heart.
Carved out of rock.
But that was the end.
He's long gone now.
I mean he's gone for good
Sally paid him off for it.
And the others, too.
I say he's long gone now.
I mean he's gone for good.
Sally fixed him right up.
She put him in the wood.
Sure she put him on the spot.
One day when he was asleep
She cracked him on the knot
And put him where he'll keep.
Though she'd put her man away
She was sorry he was gone.
So she'd sit all day and mope
Till she moped her brain away.
She had no hope, she had no dough;
She even started to dip in the snow.
So they took her away, far away from the city.
They took her away and she's got my pity.
She's got all my pity, this broad named Sally,
For I, too, come from Tin Can Alley.

"Green Pastures" in Retrospect
WHERE I reviewed Marc Connellly's "The Green Pastures" in this column shortly after its premiere I did not wake up the town with any loud hosannas in its praise. I saw it as an exceptionally entertaining play, made distinguished by its remarkably astute direction rather than by its dramatic substance or the quality of its music. Since that time lords and dukes and quondam Russian princes have gone into rhapsodies over the play, to say nothing of a battalion of Rt. Rev. Bishops from overseas. In spite of the ten thousand times ten thousand halujulehs chanted in adoration of Mr. Connellly's masterpiece, I still think it is just a little better than a fair riddling play; not a great play by a long shot.
WHEN I reviewed Marc Connellly's "The Green Pastures this column shortly after its premiere I did not wake up the with any loud hosannas in its praise. I saw it as an exception on training play, made distinguished by its remarkably a direction rather than by its dramatic substance or the quality its music. Since that time lords and dukes and quondam Ruf princes have gone into rhapsodies over the play, to say nothing battalion of Rt. Rev. Bishops from overseas. In spite of the thousand times ten thousand hallelujahs chanted in adoratory Mr. Connellly's masterpiece, I still think it is just a little better in a fair middling play; not a great play by a long shot.
It is pleasing to be able to state that all the Negroes who seen the play, and with whom I have discussed it, indorse opinion. I mean, of course, to except those Negroes who this is a great play merely because Heywood Brown says so. For instance, I have talked with several colored people who both "The Green Pastures" and "The Last Mile." Every or all them considered the latter play the better one. I think they right.
Green Pastures" indeed, is a magnificent piece of three holom. Mr. Connellly, like all civilized people, knows that stories of the Bible from Genesis to Exodus are a mixture of poetry and sheer nonsense. I think his intention was to write play that would reveal the nonsense without exaggeration and retain all the beauty and tenderness of the poetry. As a drama he was quite competent to do that. But to the majority of Americans the Bible is God's Holy Word, and if they should suspect, any portion of it was being ridiculed they would invoke all censorship laws in the country to drive the play from the s. Mr. Connellly got around that difficulty very nicely by letting Lord God Jehovah and his saints and angels appear in blackface.
Simply by putting the play forward as a Negro conceptic the relationship existing between God and His world could proceed with a free hand. He could portray the Testament God as the kindly but somewhat bigoted and not the green country preacher he probably was without fear of finding the religious minded for if anybody should object to caricature the disinclusive responsibility for it. "Of course isn't really that kind of stupid old fellow" he could say. "We've folks know he isn't." I'm presenting Him only as He appears to childlike eyes of Negroes." As Negroes are supposed to have kinden ideas about everything he could easily get away with its fact, he has gotten away with it.
So I remain firm in my opinion that "The Green Pastures not a first-rate play, but a second-rate piece of dramatic duplex made seductively plausible by super direction.

Manager of Most Popular House for Better Class of Negroes Discloses Conditions Hitherto Unknown to General Public
Whether a business man must hire more labor than he needs and maintain a payroll greater at times than for which he has the money to pay, is the plain statement of the situation at the Renaissance Theatre in connection with the picketing of the theatre by members of the Motion Picture Union, Local 306, made to a representative of The Amsterdam News by Manager Cleo Charity.
Taking the attitude that the union had been unfair and untruthful in the entire matter, the theatre management was loath to make any statement concerning the trouble and it was not until they had been convinced that the theatre owed an aling of the real acts to the public that the management consented to talk.
According to Mr. Charity, the Renaissance Theatre at its opening searched far and near for a Negro operator, but at that time, some ten years ago, none could be found to operate the machinery of the then silent pictures. About eight years ago a colored operator, Reginald Warner, applied for a job, he was given a trial, made good and has been continuously in the employ of the theatre ever since, and for the past few years as chief operator.
agreement with the union ended on August 31 of this year, Mr. Charity said.
Close observation disclosed that it was entirely unnecessary to keep two men in the booth at all times, one of whom did barely anything. As a matter of fact, claims the Renaissance management, there are several large, high-class motion picture theatres throughout Greater New York which do not now, nor have they ever employed two men in the projection booth at all times.
With the entering into the field of more Negro operators, Warner himself became active in attempting to secure for those colored operators the same terms and conditions in all the剧院 as the white operators and Warner himself were the owners. The Negro operators finally took him Local No. 306 and Warner was one of the most active of its members. Although there had never been a contention raised with the owners of the Renaissance Theatre as to its treatment of its operators or the wages paid to the owners of the Renaissance always being race advancement, readily recognized union and placed its force and the theatre under union rule, Mr. Charity stated.
Amicable relations continued with the union, the manager said, not so much because of the union as because the Renaissance Theatre owners always preferred to treat their employees as human beings. Thus it is that there are today working with the theatre many who started when it first opened its doors, faithful, loyal and satisfied workers. When the theatre changed from silent pictures to talkies no one knew what the labor requirements would be and at the request of the union five men were employed so that two men would be at all times in the booth. Their hours of employment were five hours a day, six days per week and their wages averaged more than $60 per man per week. This
Negro Stars at Douglas Theatre
Talking pictures have revolutionized the motion picture industry during the passing year. And during that revolution many of the famous stars of yesterday have passed on into oblivion. In their places have come new faces and new names burn in the bright lights on every theatre bill, and a new public favor. Some of the old faces have survived the revolution and among that group is one of our own. He is Clarence Brooks.
Clarence Brooks was a featured player in colored pictures way back in 1916 and became a star several years ago when he made "A Man's Duty." "By Right of Birth" and "Absent." But all of his pictures had been silent films and it was not until the Aristo Films were ready to make their seven reel all-talking cast picture that he has given a voice test the test game out splendidly and the result that Clarence Brooks is the star in "Georgia Rose," which comes to the Douglas Theatre for a triumphant run of four days commencing Saturday.
"I had been given to understand by the studio technicians that the voices of colored actors seldom ever failed to register up to the specification and yet I was disposed to feel a little anxiety. You can imagine my delight when after the test the technician stated that my voice wont over "like a million," said Clarence Brooks when discussing the matter. I still thought he was testing with me until he played the test back to me and I was amazed and felt a bit uncanny about my own voice."
The other members of the cast were inclined to feel the same as did the star, but all of them were greatly pleased to learn that each of them passed the test without any defects. Other members in the cast of "Georgia Rose" are Evelyn Preer, Irene Wilson, Roberta Hyson, Dean Dean Johnson, Allegretti Anderson, Edward Thompson, E. C. Dyer, Webb King and Spencer Williams. The picture was directed by Harry A. Gant.
JEWEL THEATRE OFFERS "SINS OF THE CHILDREN"
One of the stage's oldest celebrities and one of the stage's youngest playwrights, appear together in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's "Sins of the Children," which will be shown Friday to Monday at the Jewel Theatre, 116th street, near Fifth avenue. Louis Mann, for many years a star on Broadway, plays the principal character role.
Elliot Nugent, who with his father, J. C. Nugent, wrote "Kempy," "The Mon Hound" and other plays, appears as Mann's son. Sam Wood directed the new play, which is a dramatic story of American family life. The cast includes Leila Harms, Robert Montgomery, Francis X. Mumma, Jr., Mary Doran, Lee Kohltman, Clara Bandick and Robert McWade.
The New York Amsterdam News
agreement with the union ended on August 31 of this year, Mr. Charity said.
Close observation disclosed that it was entirely unnecessary to keep two men in the booth at all times, one of whom did hardly anything. As a matter of fact, claims the Renaissance management, there are several large, high-class motion picture theatres throughout Greater New York which do not now, nor have they ever employed two men in the projection booth at all times.
In view of the setback which occurred to the theatre recently plus the general business depression, business in all the theatres including the kenaissance has been off, making a continuance of the large payroll an almost financial impossibility, stated Mr. Charity. Accordingly, he continued, he went to the union and presented the facts just as they were and asked for an agreement which would eliminate the use of five men, offering to furnish a reel boy, so that there would be at all times two persons in the booth and giving regular employment to three operators. The Renaissance in their offer pledged themselves to continue to work the union to the extent of the union scale even to the extent of going a bit further in that matter and to abide by the union scale of hours, which is but five hours per day, for six days during the week. The answer of the union was to begin the picketing on Monday, September 1, Mr. Charity said.
Mr. Charity in his statement stressed the untruthfulness of the signs being worn by the pickets which claim that the theatre refuses to employ union labor. At no time has the Renaissance Theatre refused to employ union labor. The entire matter evolves itself into the question as to whether an employer must employ a picket or afford to pay simply because the union says he must do so. On this issue, Mr. Charity said, the theatre presents the signs to the public, willing to abide by their decision.
According to Mr. Charity, the union has a system of permit men who are not full-fledged union men but who pay a substantial percent of each week's wages to the union for the privilege of working under the union's jurisdiction. These permit men were continually sent by the union to the Renaissance booth. Mr. Warner being at all times the only full-fledged union man really sent to the Renaissance by the union, and he, it will be remembered, was employed there at the time when the union excluded Negroes, the Renaissance manager stated.
Among these "permit" men which the union would send to the Renaissance there would always be two white operators, the management no time having anything to do with the hiring or firing of these union operators. Yet the management put off, the union is careful not to send white men to picket in front of the Renaissance Theatre, placing there, on the contrary, men who have never even been employed in the Renaissance projection booth.
He insists it is a plain case of the union demanding that he do the financially impossible in paying out more than $100 each week for unneeded employees, two of whom are always white men.
Another point which the manager brought out was the few hours that these men worked under the union scale. The fact that they do but five hours per day, he said, enables them to hold other jobs, and he continued, there are many cases of operators holding down two jobs.
Plentifully supplied with money, entrenched through local political ties, the union, concluded the statement, has assumed an arrogant, unfair and dictatorial attitude which, if allowed to continue, could wreck any business enterprise that runs counter to its demands.
The older union present conditions, the management has in the projection booth three Negro operators, who work the union scale of hours, instead of five operators, two of whom were always white men, Mr. Charity concluded.
Loew's Victoria Offers Attractive Films This Week
Comedy almost turned into tragedy during the filming of an important scene for "Way Out West." M-G-M's all talking comedy farce starring William Haines, which comes to Loew's Victoria Theatre this Saturday as another of the Big Loew's fall opening shows.
The plot concerns the hilarious complications which result when a carnival swindler turns burglar, much against his will, in the supporting cast as Lela Hyms, Polly Moran, Ciff Edwards and Francis X. Bushman.
Tuesday and Wednesday of next week brings "Dancing Sweeties" to the Victoria screen and the cast includes Grant Witches, Sue Carol and Tully Marshall. Three short subjects are also the program. Thursday and Friday the Victoria has booked "Queen High" the musical comedy success of several seasons ago. Included in the cast are Ginger Rogers, Charles Rugles, Frank Morgan and Stanley Smith.
Shane Smith, the balance of the current week "Song of the Flame" is on the screen for the last times today and Richard Arlen in "The Border Legion." Thursday and Friday. The cost of the latter attraction includes Jack Holt and Fay Wray. Showing also these two days is a Charlie Chase comedy and Eddie Cantor's "Gock-Eyed News."
"Vanities" and Fight Pictures at Lafayette
"Harlem Vanities," the show at the Lafayette Theatre this week, introduces a cast of well known performers which includes Lottie Gee, Louise Cook of Connie's Inn, "Lollyypo" Jones, Troy Brown, Consella Flores, sensational acrobatic dancer and trapeze daredevil, Cecil Scott's Band, George Blas, Four Black Kats, the Cotton Plekers Trilo, Marlon Bradford and last, but not least, the imitative Jackie Mabley. Miss Flores, Jackie Mabley, Louise Cook, Lottie Gee scored individual hits in the Male. "What Men Want" is the story of two beautiful sisters who fall in love with one man. Intrigue, treachery, adventure all take a hand in the lives and destinies of all three until Truth and Love finally triumph.
The fight pictures which show Al Singer getting his from Jimmy McLarnin are unusually interesting. Every movement, every blow is clearly shown as the fast, but hopelessly-outclassed Al Singer tried to match his brawn and wits with the heavier, stronger McLarnin and New Douglas Theatres are the only theatres in Harlem showing these pictures. The Drake and Walker Company, with their cyclone band, will be the attraction at the Lafayette Theatre next week, with their revue. Sam Russell, the well-known "Bilo," will be the principal comedian. The cast includes Maud Lee, Baby Lewis, Mihinti and Daybreak, Eight Dancing Dandles, Chuster Dons, Chung Robinson and Dawson Glia. The photoplay program for the week includes, as the feature, "A Notorious Affair," starring Bille Dove and Inasil Rathbone. This is a fascinating drama and romance.
STIRRING BATTLE SCENES

They were recruited from the American Legion and other ex-service organizations in Hollywood.
One of the most amazing revelations of the power of underworld politics is made in the story of "The Czar of Broadway," which will be shown at the Roosevelt Saturday to Monday, September 19 and 20.
John Wray, recognized as one of the greatest crook characters of the New York stage, plays the leading role. Betty Compson, long noted for her work in this type of story, plays the girl, while Johnny Harron is the ambitious young reporter. The supporting cast includes the names of King Baggot, Wilbur Mack and George Byron.
Dusty Fletcher Returning to The Alhambra Next Week

The large attendance at the first students' recital of the season given by the Martin-Smith Music School, Inc., Sunday afternoon at the school in West 136th street, was very encouraging to those on the program. Among those taking part were Allen Williams, Eric Layne, Romaine Brown and Solomon Moore, violin students, and Gerald Wiggins, piano student. They are to be commended for their splendid playing.
Presents Pupils
An enthusiastic audience of parents and friends were present at the Zion Baptist Church on Harper路 Port Washington, L. I., Thursday evening to hear a concert given by the pupils of David R. Auld.
Dorathella Cottman, who is a graduate of the Institute of Musical Art, assisted on the program with several songs, playing her own accompaniments. Leonthea Wright, dramatic reader and a pupil of Richard B. Harrison, recited a number.
The younger plano students were Alice and Doreatha Standley, aged six and seven; Lillian Russell, seventh; Hattie Robinson, twelve; also Margaret Russell, twenty; Theo Pells and Marle Caustik. The youngest violin pupil was Louis De Jesus; others was Ethel Calvert and Booker T. Curry.
Mr. Auld has week-end classes in Fort Washington, Hempstead, Roslyn, Great Neck and Manhasset, L. I. His New York studio teaches music and he is a scholarship student at the Institute of Musical Art.
"American Composers And Their Works"
A valuable and comprehensive catalog of "American Composers of Today and Their Works" has been compiled by Claire Rels, with the assistance of the Juillard Foundation, and published by the United States Section of the International Society for Contemporary Music. This catalog is published for the libraries and it is a guidance for conductors and program makers. The birthplace and date of each composer is given, also a list of his publications. Among the fifty-five composers represented, William Grant Still, composer, conductor and wind instrumentist, and who lives in Jamaica, L. L. the only Negro. Besides his many other notable works, Mr. Still is widely known for the music written for the Broadway production "Rain or Shine."
Robeson Tries New Experiment
News comes from London that Paul Robeson recently tried a new experiment at the Savoy Theatre, the success of which test was proof of his complete acceptance by the London public. The entire entertainment, which began and ended with two groups of Negro songs and its center—the first act of "The Emperor Jones"—depended upon Mr. Robeson.
Praisworthy comments on the actor's good judgment in choosing the first act of the play we published. Whereas, other detached parts would have given him spectacular opportunities and exhibited his virtuosity the actor presented the first act which contained a complete sketch and hint at everything that the Emperor is to become.
Of his singing were these comments: "Negro spirituals are, as a form of art, of so little value that it is hard to make them sustain an evening in the sophisticated circumstances of a theatre. They need a special emotional appeal; they make little appeal to the mind, and emotionally appropriate to the scarcely be communicated by one singer and his accompanist to a skeptical audience. Only one course is open to the singer. He cannot, without being ridiculous, work himself into a religious ecstasy; he must therefore, rely upon the mass of treatment and sentimentality. This course Mr. Robeson pursues with an admirable tact. His voice is charm-

New Rochelle Hits Segregated School
N.A.A.C.P. Sees Jim-Crow in Boundary Lines Set by Board
The New Rochele branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is up in arms against the laying out of boundary lines in New Rochele in a manner which includes all Negro pupils in one school district.
A letter protesting the lines drawn by the School Board has been addressed to the school authorities, to Mayor Otto of New Rochele, to the City Council and to Governor Rosevelt.
The protest contends that only Negroes are included in the Lincoln School district, and only whites in the Webster School district. The line separating the two districts has been run across the front of the Lincoln School in order to force white people in the district to go to Webster School.
Commenting upon the board's action, the N. A. A. C. P. says, in part: "It is our belief that this is a long step in the direction of Jim Crow schools in New Rochelle. Jim Crow schools, wherever do not, find not the consideration that white schools do. Less money is spent on them. They are not so well kept up; and the least efficient teachers are assigned to these schools. Naturally, every thinking parent wants to give his child the best in educational opportunity, and we fear that these steps that are now being taken by the School Board confirm in acts the many rumors that have been affront in New Rochelle for some time. We feel, therefore, that these lines should be redrawn with an eye to the common people, and the schools. Then more homes occupied by colored people will be included in the Webster district and more homes occupied by white people will be included in the Lincoln district." The letter is signed by Leon Scott, George Ralston and Dr. I. crey Richardson.
C. R. Branon Dies; Was City Engineer
Howard Graduate Served as Lieutenant in World War
Lieut. Clyde R. Branon. 39. 385 Edgecombe avenue, was borne to his grave in National Cemetery at Cypress Hills yesterday after funeral services at the Clinton Brooks funeral parlor, 149 West 128th street.

Massachusetts Reviews Achievements of Negro
BOSTON, Sept. 15 (ANF).—Tercenary exercises, held most every day during the summer months by various racial groups in commemoration of the 300th anniversary of the founding of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, came to a climax last evening, when he wrote that his contributions to civilization were strikingly presented in dramatic tableaux and music.
More than 30,000 people stood or sat for hours as bit by bit Negro achievements were unfolded before their gaze. Mrs. Dorothy Richardson, who directed the chorus of 200 voices, captivated the throng with her singing of "Deep River" and "Life" by Pearl Curran, accompanied by Dorothy Wood. Julian D. Rainey, assistant corporation counsel, represented the mayor.
Tableaux by individuals pictured Crispus Attucks, Phyllis Wheatley, Peter Salem, Salem Poor, Harriet Tubman, Lincoln, Sargent Carney, Brazille Lew, and Col. Robert Gould Shaw with his Negro soldiers.
Other tableaux were a group of women portraying Medicine, Invention, Painting, Music and Poetry.
Man, 75, Returns; Lost Three Weeks
Aged Harlemite Unable to Tell Where He Has
Been
Missing from his home for three weeks, Hammond Rouse, 75, 255 West 134th street, returned at 1 a.m. m. Saturday. The aged man was unable to tell where he had been or who helped him back home.
The Missing Persons' Bureau of the Police Department was informed by Mrs. Emma Rouse, the man's wife, that he disappeared August 25. Police were unable to find any clue to his disappearance.
It was learned Saturday that Mr. Rouse returned to his home in a daze. He could not tell who found him or where he was when directed back home.
The Missing Persons' Bureau reported that it had no record of his return, save that he came back early Saturday morning. The old man was haggard and thin, but had apparently found shelter and food during his absence.
When interviewed he stated that he had simply been wandering about the city, where he was going. Mr. Roose said he could remember nothing more.

Comedian So Happy That He Treats Staff of the
Capitol
Stepin Fetchit, comedian of the Fox Movietone "Folles of 1929," now making his first Broadway appearance in person as a star of Chester Hale's revue "Bye-Bye Blues," at the Capitol Theatre, is a father. The news was told the actor by Ted Clause, master of ceremonies, while he was the stage in the 7:45 show on Friday.
Mrs. Fetchit, the former Doris Stevenson, gave birth to the son at Shaun's Maternity Hospital, 168th street and Broadway. She will be remembered as a member of the cast of King Vidor's "Hallucilb."
Mr. Fetchit, who was born on Decoration Day in 1902, is known in private life as Lincoln Theodore Perry. His father named him after two Presidents, Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt. His son will be called Lincoln Theodore Roosevelt after the baby is the first of the Fetchits, who were married in Hollywood about a year and a half ago.
In celebration of the event, Fetchit bought candy for all the chorus girls and cigars for all the musicians and stage hands at the theatre.

Care of the FEET

Chitropodist
Bursitis
In last week's article you were told that a bursa sac was a closed pouch situated over joints and where tendons pass over bones; that they act as pads to lessen the pressure of external forces, as well as those of adjacent bones. These pads, naturally being subjected to pressure, oftimes get an overamount of it, and when this occurs they become inflamed. They are then known as bursitis. Bursitis may be classified as acute, sub-acute and chronic, the difference being in the duration of activity attending the inflammatory processes. In acute bursitis, the symptoms of inflammation are very active, the course found in and the synovial fluid is being charged on the surface. In subacute bursitis, the symptoms are not as severe as those in the acute condition, but are more active than the chronic stage.
Chronic bursitis is a condition in which the inflammation is of long standing and not active. The walls of the bursa sac have become thickened and there is no great amount of overproduction of synovial fluid. This is the type seen on the groin, the knee, and is commonly called "bunion." The cause of bursitis on the foot is nearly always due to injury of some kind. A sudden blow, the foot being stepped on, or the pressure of a shoe all may be responsible for the presence of bursitis. Shoe pressure, in most cases, is the cause of more "bunions" than anything else. A very narrow shoe will prevent the foot from spreading out when weight is put upon it, thereby restricting motion in the anterior part of the foot. Long hours of pounding hard pavements and cement floors with leather heels or other types of hard heel shoes will cause calcaneus bursitis, or an inflammation of the bursa sack under the heel bone. Occasionally, a focal infection may be responsible for this bursitis.

VARICOSE veins are a relatively common condition and are present in the adult in some degree in one region or the other to the extent of about 20 per cent. A varicosed vein is one that is irregular and permanently dilated and can often be seen taking a tortuous course under the skin. It is believed by some that hereditary plays some part, but the actual cause seems to be one of mechanics.

A PATIENT came to my office last month to have a crown, which another dentist had put in, removed. While he was having this work done, he suggested that I put his whole mouth in good condition, the work consisting of replacing and filling several teeth and the making of several extractions.
It is my practice, and it should be that of every dentist, to X-ray the entire mouth in such cases to determine the condition of the roots of the teeth to be used to support those to be replaced and also to facilitate the extraction of those necessary.
After the pictures were made, the patient said he never had any trouble with these particular teeth and that it was not necessary to take the X-ray.
When the pictures were developed, I noticed a large area of infection around the upper left blucuspid. I asked him how he had been feeling. He said his head had been bothering him so that he had to go home one or two days every week to do something for it. Doctors could not find out what the trouble was.
I recommended the removal of the tooth, to which he heartily agreed. After the extraction he felt almost immediate relief. The patient has had no recurrence of those headaches.

And these mechanics may include obstruction to the return flow, as from a tumor or pregnancy; weak heart action, which causes the circulation to be slower; disease of the veins, and constant positions of the body which do not facilitate the return of blood from distant parts, as in standing. In all these cases the valves in the veins, which in health help to support the column of blood, are broken down; hence the distension along the line. Veins are superficial and have no deep structures to support them, but are at the same time subjected to great strain. In the ones most commonly involved. In for these reasons that we find various veins along the inner side of the leg, in the scrotum and in the rectum.
Varicose veins of the leg occur more commonly in the female and naturally become an alliment of much concern aside from the clinical aspect of the case. The skin over these veins in the leg is often discolored, due to the escape and breaking up of red cells under the skin. Great care must be taken not to irritate them, as they become inflamed easily and in this state send off inflamed particles to other vital organs. A skin condition progresses, stagnation takes place and prevents proper circulation around the capillaries; this in turn makes for poor nutrition of the surrounding skin and the well-known varicose ulcers form. These ulcers in themselves offer a most perplexing problem and are most difficult to heal, since the underlying cause is not so easily overcome—if ever.

Former Secretary of White Takes Up Duties Today Ousted for Living in W
Terminating his services Monday branch of the White Plains Y. M. C. A was one of the leading figures in a fig in Westchester county, was to report to
Mr. Morsell, whose contract for another year of work with the White Plains Y. M. C. A. was withhold because he dared live in a white section, has accepted the post of executive secretary of the Druld Hill avenue branch of the Baltimore Y. M. C. A.
The Baltimore post is being vacated today by Willie Anderson, former boys' work secretary of the West 135th street branch here. Mr. Anderson expected to enter business office in Oak Creek.
Announcement of Mr. Morsell's forced resignation was made July 19 by Frank Gardner Smith, white, general secretary of the Central White Plains Y. M. C. A. Mr. Smith declined to state why Mr. Morsell would restrain, but it was generally known that the branch secretary's refusal to accept and promote racial segregation in housing was the bone of contention. A number of whites declared they would refuse any more donations to the Community Chest, one of the chief sources of support for the Y. M. C. A., if he was not not.
discussing explaining the situation, Mr. Morsell said: "The lions wanted meest and the M. Y. C. A. decided to throw the Negroes to the lions." Two Others Ousted.
He was referring to himself and to Dr. Errod D. Collymore, and to Dr. Errod D. Collymore, 481 South Lexington pavilion, and Dr. A. M. Williams, Physician, and Dr. Kalb Avenue, both of White Plains, in whose home Mr. Morsell lived until his family came here from Pittsburgh, was chairman of the board of management of the branch Y. M. C. A. After he defied the attempts of his white neighbors who sought to oust him from the neighborhood, he was in a relection to the board. Dr. Williams who also moved into a white neighborhood this year, was dropped on the same body.
Mr. Morsell and other members of the board have expressed the opinion that the election of new members was in violation of the rules of the organization. The secretary said he was brought before the general secretary of the Central Y. M. C. July and told that he would have to go because he had failed to keep the dentist and physician from the white sections, and one further by living in the house with one of them, excepting the post in Baltimore. Mr. Morsell returns to his native city. He was graduated from the high school there in 1896 and later taught in the public schools. Mr. Morsell is also a graduate of Oberlin College and of Yale Divinity School.

bill by a vote of 230 to 119, and a filibuster of Southern senators from lynching states forced withdrawal of the measure.
"The threat of that bill did bring about a sharp reduction in the number of mob murders. And the N. A. C. P. hopping than a announced public opinion would become effective in stamping out this American disease, held in abaissance its demand for Federal action.
"But now the mobbists are again rampant. This year's record of shame will bulk large in the annals of lawlessness in this country. The states are powerless and indifferent. Probably the publicly known mob murderers will be seriously prosecuted or punished.
"We shall have a bill introduced in the next session of Congress. Probably that session will not convene until after the election in November. So it behooves colored voters throughout the country to put this issue of lynching squately up to all candidates for election to house or senate. Get a clear and unequivocal statement from candidates how they will vote on Federal action to end lynching. Give another field in which colored voters throughout the nation can act as a unit. If they do act as a unit, they can obtain what they and all decent citizens desire: the end of murderous anarchy, doing death without trial, any Negro whom a mob happens to select for horrible death."
Darien 'Authorities' Kill Innocent Man
Mayor of Georgia Town
Says Lad Was Not
Implicated
DARIEN, Ga., Sept. 15.—Not satisfied with the lynching of George Grant, who was shot to death last Tuesday in his prison cell by a small band of men who ignored the machine gun-armed militia on "guard" outside the jail, the cowardly peace officers themselves engaged in a rushing parade of death on Wednesday when they shot Willie "Bubber" Bryan, 24, to death.
The second victim, or his brother, Fred, were believed to have been involved in the slaying of a police chief and the wounding of three other officers in a pitched battle. Mayor R. A. Young of Darien issued a statement in which he asserted that Willie Bryan had nothing whatever to do with the killing of the officer.
The failure of the Georgia militia under command of Colonel W. Roy Neal, to resist the murderous band, has provoked a stinging editorial in the daily Macon Telegraph: "Why the National Guard?" In a statement given out last week, among other things, Colonel Neal said: "At no time were any members of the National Guard overpowered in Darion. I took possession of the jail and put a machine gun crew in charge there with a wish to emphasize just that, at the time Grant killed by three pistol shots in his cell in the jail, there were no National Guardmen in the jail and none had been there after I turned Grant over the civil authorities and after seeing that he was locked in his cell."

THE MILITARY PARADE
HARLEM'S 369th Infantry brought Governor Roosevelt to attention when the lads passed in review Sunday at Camp Smith, Peekskill, where the regiment is in its second week of training. A delegation of 6,000 Harlemites visited the camp on Sunday.
6,000 Harlemites Visit 369th Camp
Governor Reviews Outfit
Seeking to Better Old Records
Six thousand Harlemites descended Sunday upon Camp Smith, Peekskill, where the 369th Infantry was reviewed by Governor Roosevelt and his staff. The regiment will end its encampment Sunday, after two weeks of intensive training.
The camp celebrated "Harlem Day" and was rewarded by the cheers of hundreds who came to witness the manoeuvres and to be with the soldiers for a day. One of the features of the day was a religious service for the soldiers and their guests, conducted by the Rev. Alexander C. Garner, pastor of Grace Congregational Church, who is chaplain, with the mark of caskin.
Governor Roosevelt reviewed the troops at 4:30. He was attended by high military officials of the State.
Col. William A. Taylor's charges are striving to uphold their record of previous years and to better their scores for use of small arms and the machine-gun. The training work is under the direction of Major James N. Boehler. According to Capt. Wilmer F. Lucas, adjutant of the regiment, the outfit has the highest record in the State National Guard for attendance, with 1,086 officers in camp. They constitute 94 per cent of the total enrollment. During the weeks the soldiers will engage in large practice, stage mimic training and in team athletic meet. The regiment was reviewed Friday by Joseph W. McKeen, president of the Board of Aldermen. held in fall at DaKaleb and were being brought here for preliminary arrangement last Wednesday, were taken from the two deputy sheriffs and lynched.
The deputies, Guy Byrd and J. J. Doison, had already been warned that mob sentiment was brewing in Scooba and that it would be dangerous to attempt to return the two men to that place. They were proceeding along the highway leading from DeKalb to Scooba, the deputies claim, when they were set upon by a mob tied to trees and their prisoners taken from DeKalb. While it is believed that an impartial investigation of the lynching would implicate the two deputies, none is expected to follow.

HUNTSVILLE, Texas, Sept. 15. — Jesse Lee Washington was electrocuted at State prison here Frida, for the murder of a white woman. Washington, as he walked to the death chamber, declared he was innocent. He said he had pleaded guilty to escape the mob which threatened his life after the attack on the woman.

CARTERSVILLE, Ga., Sept. 15—Two National Guard machee-gun companies arrived today shortly after a mob appeared at the county jail and demanded that John Willie Clark, slayer of police Chief Joe Jenkins, be surrendered. Sheriff G. W. Gaddis, who previously had telephoned Atlanta asking National Guard troops, refused the request, and possible violence was averted with arrival of the troops. Under protection of the militia Clark was taken to Atlanta.

Fisk University Plans 57th Year
Several Important Changes Have Been Made in School's Faculty
NASHVILLE, Sept. 15.—When Fisk University opens its fifty-seventh school year on Friday, September 26, several new faculty faces will be seen by old students, and some others will be missed. The former dean, Dr. Ambrose Callier, who last year was granted a leave of absence to complete his work for the doctorate at Columbia, has accepted a position with the U. S. Bureau of Education, and A. A. Pham, who was dean last year, will now become dean. There will be no other changes in the officers of administration except in the office of the dean of men. Prof. Bertram W. Doyle, who acted in that capacity last year, has been granted a year's leave to study at the University of Chicago on a Rosenwald scholarship, and Lloyd Cofer, a graduate of Tufts College and former York City, will be responsible for personnel work with men as assistant to Dean Taylor.
Dr. Charles S. Johnson, who will return about October 1 from investigation work in Liberia, will continue as head of the department of social sciences at Fisk. Dr. Homer L. Morris will head the department of economics. Dr. Morris is a graduate of Earlham College and has his doctor's degree from Columbia. The new head of the department of economics, Dr. Harold F. Smith, a resident of California. He is a graduate of Stanford University and doctor from Columbia. Miss Edith Johnson, a graduate of Smith College, a former teacher in the Louisville High School, will teach in place of Frederick A. Browne, former chemistry teacher, who goes to Claflin College. Lloyd Alexander, master of arts from the University of Michigan, will assist Dr. Folger in the department of biology. E. A. Lanier, former professor of English at Atlanta University and at A. and B. Smith College, will assist to the department of English. Miss Eulacie Shamberger, a graduate of Fisk and a recent master of arts from Radcliffe, will also teach English.
Miss Hennie Ward, formerly of the
Y. W. C. A. ward in Cincinnati, succeeds Miss Luella Hoover as director of physical education. Miss Alice Simmons, formerly of the Fisk faculty, has returned after studying in Oberlin, to do extension work for the

The elderly suspect, who was arrested after he allegedly broke into a Harlem grocery store, preferred to call himself the "mystery man," according to Patrolman O'Shaughnessy of the West 136th street station. The policeman testified that while he was making his rounds of neighborhood stores on Friday morning he observed that the lock on the grocery store at 410 Lenox avenue had been broken. Drawing his revolver, the policeman entered the store and found "Smith" standing there. He refused persistently to answer any of the policeman's questions. Upon being taken

to the station house "Smith" refused to tell what his purpose was in breaking into the store, nor would he admit the jimmy found on the floor nearby was his property.
A mysterious light was cast on the man's silence when a search of his person revealed $400 in a rear trouser pocket. Solomon Roter, 1892 Morris avenue, proprietor of the store where the arrest took place, told the police nothing had been taken from the place and that he kept no money there.
Counsel for the prisoner sought to get the money returned to him, but the court decided to leave the matter secretion of the police after they had demanded the suspect fumed. Roter also told the police he had never seen the prisoner before.
Although police believe the name given them by the prisoner is fictitious, fingerprint records disclosed no previous arrests.

THE
SPORTIVE
WHIRL
BY THE EDITOR
OLI KOLO must have been mad last Friday night when he crawled through the ropes to meet Gaston Charles of France, for he walked right out of his corner and swatted the Frenchman right out of the picture in the first round. If your memory is working aright and hitting on all six, you will recall that the last time the Porto Blican appeared at the Olympia, and although he won he acted as if there was still a bad taste in the mouths of his supporters, which he had to take out by administering a shot of a shotgun. The millions were chosen for the burnt offering. Koi will show at the Queensboro this fuesday night, and from there the Garden looms.
IVED in this city some years ago one of the squares men that ever acted as the third man in the roped arena—so much so he has referred more championship fights than all the other referees, at least up to the time he decided to pull up stakes for the West. That man is Eddie Purdy, and today he makes Chicago his
Passing stranges then, the boys around here opine, that the powers that be in the town which uses shot and shell as controlling arguments, that they should read the books of New Freeman fight when the defence of the Thompson Freeman fight when the colored lad dropped his championship. Far removed from the scenes of our activities we must perforce be somewhat mum under the circumstances, but we can close paragraph and ask why Freeman is on the fight Thompson won it. Sure, we have also answered the question ourselves!
TODAY we have come to praise Caesar and not to bury him. Do not assume because you see a cartoon of Abe Yeager in these columns that we seek to prove how close we are to the powers that be. We leave that for eastern sport writers, whatever that means, and others from the vellers of the Alleghenies. We do not believe that it is necessary for the world to live out the honest a fine swat on the big affairs of swat and the come beck and tell you how we said to Hoosis of the Sun or Whatis of the Telegram what a fine evening it was, so that you will feel that your favorite sport writer was really cutting up dides the night before and because of it should loom large in your estimation. Abe, before he came to Harlem to take some of the worries off the shoulders of Jess McMahon, showed a tendency to deal four-square with all the boys in the game, regardless of color or previous condition of servitude, and that, if you should ask us, is enough to warrant rating him the space which he occupies today. You know, hrome he does. He is a man who after you have said another man in the game with the attributes of a Jess McMahon you dare not let him pass unannounced.
And we cannot kill Abe if he insists upon getting rid of the floaters by telling the boys that we stand so well with Jess that we have to do it. Abe must be a grand little fellow, we must be thrown into the ring at the Olympia. Abe will help us to keep straight the record, and it won't be on a printer's error even if it kills his old man. Abe must be a grand little fellow, for all the sport writers in this city at some time or other in their career have singled him out for special mention, and from the day he was born he was always required to realize he must from time to time resort to flights of fancy to create a champion in some South Sea islands where they have never heard of boxing and unload him on.
OU do not have to look back to the far distant past to recall that one of the stipulations laid down by "Cum" Possey of the Pittsburgh (beg pardon, we mean Homestead) Grays before he would let his team meet the Lincoln Giants would be that Jinmie Keenan use only men that had appeared with the Lincoln's before the coming of Columbus and the Jackson River. That was the man's dislike that was body-to-body water under which the Grays will pass before they arrive at the Yankee Stadium Sunday.
Keenan, one of the most obliging fellows in the world, gladly gave in to Posey and assured the Pittsburgh that he would not even use men in his lineup, and he had to be very good to him. The Colony was one of the only in his lineup. The Phadown Roosevelt stormed the block houses on San Juan Hill. But look eye, rumor says that Posey went out hunting for bar and signed up Dixon, that bright little boy whom you last saw at the Stadium with the Baltimore Black Sox, and a few others. The Colony only had a few more of them. He was not a suspect that Keenan will give a correct imitation of Stranger. Forbes the night Bill Madden's Incorporators placed Posey's team on the ropes at Manhattan Casino.
An argument had arisen over a free throw and Incorporator representation that had been done by the Colony's right to the shot. The "Stranger" shot across the court to Bill, who was hot under the collar and demanded that he let Posey have the shot. "We are going to whip him tonight anyhow, so what's the difference," he said. We must be careful about how these lines did the Borrowers. The Colony's Colony's Bill Madden. This isn't the patient of Lyle Carter's watch we are talking about.

The Stars of Cuba made their last appearance in New York for the 1930 season Sunday, with a father-and-son combination batting before 1,000 fans at the Yankee Stadium. Manager Chacon, who has been one of the best shortstops in the country for nearly twenty years, had his son playing with the batting of Dihigo and the pitching of Eagana, enabled the Cubans to win the first game by a score of 13-3. The Lincoln Giants won the second game, completely baffled the heavy-hitting Giants, allowing only six scattered hits and only one for an extra base. The Cuban batters, on the other hand, collected a total of 105 pitches, four pitcher's Ryan being knocked out of the box in the fourth inning. Dihigo led his team at bat, with a home run, a triple and two singles in six trips to the plate. Solis also hit a home run in this game.
Farreer tables in the season countered by the Cuban to six scattered hits for the seven innings. He struck out seven batters.
The comparatively small crowd was
attributed partly to the threatening
weather and partly to the last the
half of Harlem went to Camp Smith
to attend the review of the 368th In-
fantry before Gov. Roosevelt.
The level of expectation to wit-
ness the opening of the Hornsack
Grays-Lincoln Giants' series at the

Lincoln Giants and Homestead Grays Ready for Stadium Battles
The stage is all set and thousands await the actors in the great drama which will be offered at the Yankee Stadium next Sunday afternoon when the Lincoln Giants step forward in an attempt to turn back the invading Pittsburghians coming here under the banner of the Homestead Grays.
It is conceded that this neck of the woods is the empire city of the Empire State of the Union, and here everything big must appear to get the touch of approval at the appraising hands of the sophisticated, hence when a claim is made, whether in the athletic or any other world, you have to bring it to Gocham and show the folks.
Before frenzed throngs, with bells ringing, whistles blowing and cheering sections going hoarse with the shouts for the home team, "Cum Posey has shown his ability to that he had the goods, and now Gotham pins its faith in Captain John Henry Lloyd to spike the guns of the invaders and prove to all Pennsylvania that the Lincoln Giants are the no-baseball team and so for the time being, the hatchet is buried and Jimmie Keenan and Cumberland Posey are down on the bill to do a "Waltz Me Around," Jimmie, Waltz Me Around Again" at Colonel Rupper's home of the Catholic World will down from the Catholic Protective Oval to root for the boys that have been furnishing them such good entertainment all season, and if it was not for the fact that the mentaor has written his essays after giving an exposition on honesty and truth over on the theatrical page of today's paper, he would say that a large and frenzed mob of followers are these parts from the City of Smoke Posey and the Homestead Grays.
But, by the bones of forebears resting in Northumberland County, it should be a whopping mob of diamond enthusiasts at the Stadium Sunday to meet the New York to furnish ninety-nine and one-third per cent of the cheering gathering, and whether it be Lincoln's or Grays making the grand plays that bunch will give their applause to the worthy members of each team. Lincoln Giants have the greatest hitting combination of any colored team in the country, and one of the greatest in baseball history, was revealed last week when the averages for forty-eight home games were compiled against the team as a average 350. Individual averages range from 546 to 227, with only three members of the team hitting below 300.

That the summer swimming program of the Y was well received by the members is evidenced by a string of successes: Water carnivals, marathons, swimming competitions, gymnastics to see the progress made during the past year in this activity, and Director Hunt deserves to be highly commended on the success of the training and the satisfactory results there.
The following were successful in passing the Senior Life Saving Tests hold at Camp Carlton under J. Herbert Gilliam, examiner: Win. Chavls, Leonard Bain. Ward David, Vermont Pinkette, John Daniels and William Atkinson. Davis got 95 points out of a possible 100. Alfred Lind, assistant physician director, also passed the test.

All of the above received their initial training at the F.
Four members of the swimming team which has been creating such a furoce in Metropolitan meets went to Washington, D.C. Saturday and participated in the third annual Water Carnival of the Franels Swimming Pools. Although they competed against the cream of Washington and Baltimore (forty-odd swimmers, the strong combination of Willis Hanks, John Drummond, Carlton Jackson and Leroy Williams scored enough points to take second to Washington. Blancard, A. Baker, assistant艇's work secretary who was in charge of the boys, was highly enthusiastic about the showing made.
Larry Williams, winner of the 7-eight-mile marathon, and entrant in the recent News Derby, led a spirited field of 120 runners, the final time of 2 minutes 53 seconds. Capinan Willis Hanks turned in some fine performances in the breast stroke, easily winning the 100-yard dash—time, 10 seconds. The second test was the 50-yard free style sprint that Jackson lost a wonderful race, the judges being unable to accurately designate the place winners. Although one judge finished in the second, the official time was 29.12 seconds. Monod took second in the 100-yard free style in an interesting race—time, 1 minute 7 seconds. Once off course all the way to within five yards, the finish line, the boys placed second to Washington in the exciting 200-yard relay. Not to be outdone, the boys came back strong in the Medley Relay and nosed out Washington, winning the boys down in his car. We are indeed grateful for this fine show of spirit.
The Water Carnival and Swimming Meet, which has been in progress all summer, closed on Saturday night. This meet, the first of its kind, was a signal

The team will bring to bring out a spirit of good feeling and closer relationship among these men, the majority of whom were novices before the start of the meet, and those who felt like Kojas and Welsmullers.

Furey Reported Dead
Unofficial reports coming from downtown state that Jim Furey, former manager of the famous Original Celtics, passed away last Friday.
Furey enjoyed quite some prominence at the head of the world beating Shamrocks for a few years, but when disaster removed him for a time from the leadership, his star started to set and recently, when he returned to take up where he left off, things did not pan out so well.
Through signing up his team with the Renaissance Five, the colored champs, he became known to basketball followers in Harlem, but was heartily panned when it was charged that he was connected with the outfit which sought to take the team from Bob Douglas last season.
Kolo Made It 5 Straight Last Friday Night
Koli Kolo, featherweight champion of Porto Rico, scored his fifth straight victory at the Olympic A. C. Charles of France in one minute and fifty-sight seconds of the first round Friday night.
Charles was down for a count of eight when Kolo unscored a lightning-fast quarter to quash Viktor Limninski's feet only for a few seconds when Kolo shot a hard left hook to the chin. The bout served as a tuneup for Kolo's bow on the big kick. Tuesday night when he meets Terry Roth in one of the four ten-round bouts.
In the semi-final of six rounds Fredy Kubasov battled of the time to a close victory against Antoil Kochis of Hungary.

On September 28 they are scheduled to play a team in Paterson, N. J. It is rumored by football critics that the Cavalry boasts a better team this year than last season.

Jackson, captain, are very optimistic over their new material prospects.
GOLF
By NIBLICK
All the deeps went wrong in the national golf championships, just decided Labor Day on the Casa Loma course outside of Chicago, when Robert Ball and Frank Gaskins both failed to retain their titles won last year, when the championships were decided at Yale Best. N. J.
Ball marveled that Robert Ball of Chicago carried now adorns Illinois Marshall of New Orleans, La., while Frank Gaskins' crown rests on the brow of George A. Roddy of the University of Iowa, whose home town is Iowa City, Iowa. Both are capable golfers and won their laurels by playing excellent golf. The professional title was decided by playing 22 holes for the first medal score, and Marshall took strokes for four rounds. Porter Washburn was second, Mrs. Washburn was second with 24, and Robert Ball had 26. Marshall is an assistant pro on a New Orleans course.
bonds play after a qualifying round. Robby who finally won the title, shot and was tied by our own James McMullen, but a dip of a coin tossed the ball model into Robby's lap. McMullen got to bet to bring home a title, but put in the semi-final round by Robby playing in a driving rain. Labor Robby then defeated Harold Horns of Chicago, who has just put up four at home champion Gaskins. Horns lined up with New York from a complete shutout when he cup given for the first flight winner. L. F. Kennerly, St. Nicholas公教 president, also brought home a play for winning a second flight condition match.
With another some thirty professionals at amateurs teed off at Casa Loma who was the largest field that ever played in a similar event.
Robby's championship was also doubled and the winner was Marie Thompson of Chicago, whose medal was 101.
New Yorkers, although they did win the big trophies, are very well paid with the treatment received at the hosts of the Pioneer Club of Chicago conducted he tournament, but not only will return next year but will induce more of the eastern golfers to attend.

ROYALS AND BUSHWICKS SPLIT LAST SUNDAY Ideal Tennis Club in Victory Over the St. Nicholas
The Home Guard Ready to Man the Heavy Guns Next Sunday
CAPTAIN JOHN HENRY LLOYD, shown in center of picture, and his famous Lincoln Giants posed for The Amsterdam News Sunday at the Yankee Stadium, where they go into battle this coming Sunday afternoon against "Cum" Posey's Homestead Grays in the race to decide for this season the real champions in Negro baseball in the eastern part of the United States. New York has gone down hook, line and sinker on the local team.
BUSHWICKS ALMOST GOT ROYALS TWICE ON SUNDAY
The Bushwicks almost scored two victories over the Brooklyn Royal Giants Sunday in their double tilt at Dexter Park, but a ninth inning rally that netted two run ins the first game was not quite enough for the Kandy Kids to win and the Giants copped the initial contest 4 to 3. Behind some good pitching by Stanley Baungartner the Bushwicks drove in a quartet of runs in the second game and topped the Giants 4 to 1.
The Kids started well in the opener, annexing the lead with a run in the second inning but the colored clouters tied it up in the fifth with a pallid singles, a wild pitch and a double. In the following game DeMurcho loosened the Giants pounded for six singles. There was but one out, three runs in and the bases were loaded, but Mike settled down and fanned Washington for the second out while Seay fouled out to end the siege.
The Kids went through the game up to the ninth inning without giving Stanley much trouble but in the final chapter, with two out, he walked McGarrigan, Gerner followed with a single and when Stanley threw to second to catch McGarrigan off the bag the runners advanced, scoring a moment later on Loh's safety to opener field, however ended the game with ground out.
The Giants got off in the second game by chalking up one tally in the initial stanza but they found Baumgartner at his best after that and he held them scoreless for the eight remaining innings. Redding was none too generous with his hits, but the Kids managed to account for four runs on eight hits and a pair of glaring errors.
In the second inning See doubled to eight field and when Page made a wild heave to third See rounded the turn and came home with the tying run.
Then with one out in the fourth, Barnes drove a single to center field and Brooks, attempting to pick it up on the run, missed it completely the ball continued to close to deep center. Barnes meanwhile scoring from first.
Their two runs in the seventh were legitimate, however, for they were the result of three good hits. Mayell led off with a single, reached third when Paddy Smith sacrificed and Baumgartner grounded out, and crossed the rubber on La's hit to left field. La stole second and scored on McGarrigan's triple to right field for the other tally. The scores:

Hot Political Meeting Last Week
Mrs. Lawton Opened Guns on Democratic Pastor of Trinity Church
Soothing denunciations and vigorous retorts by champions of the Democratic and Republican parties were the high spots of a densely crowded meeting held at the Flatbush Community Club, 2531 Snyder avenue, on Wednesday evening late when the Flatbush Colored Republican Club met for its installation of officers.
Hostilities began when the Rev. Thomas S. Harter, pastor of Holy Trinity Baptist Church, who delivered the address to the misdeeds and shortcomings of the Republicans. He said that though a registered Republican, he will vote the Democratic ticket because occidental the Republicans were more conservative. Declaring that the Rev. Dr. Harter was "camouflaging," that he was no more a Democrat than a Republican, but simply a digram of Republican, he was a lawman, vice-president of the Colored Republican organization of Kings County, made a heated reply. Speaking on the attitude of the Democrats towards Negroes, he responded negatively while Assistant Secretary of War, was the individual who more than any other was responsible for the article which kept the Marines in Haiti, resisting the invasion and the ravishing of the womanhood of the race. Tillman, Van and Blease are all Democrats, she remarked, and closed by saying that every law placed on the statute books was placed by the Republican party.
Other speakers were Mrs. Corrine Harris, co-leader of the club: Mrs. Gertrude Brawner of the 17th Assembly District; Erik Candidate for the Assembly, and Herman Johnson, leader of the club. Musical numbers were rendered by the club quartet and by Joseph Hardy, the installing officer. Nebbia installed as members of the executive board were Herman Johnson, leader; Corrine Harris, co-leader; James Jackson, president; Raymond E Jackson, secretary; Harriet E Jackson, secretary; E. Thompson assistant secretary; Thomas Gaskin and Arthur Bussie, sergeants-at-arms, and Claibon Harris, chapain.

EDDIE DE GRANT AND
MRS. WILSON MARRIED
In the presence of their immediate relatives and a few personal friends, Mrs. Eda, Morton Wilson, formerly of Washington, D. C., but more recently of New York and Brooklyn, was quietly married Sunday afternoon, Sept. 7, to Edward R. DeGrant, well-known Brooklynite and musician. The ceremony was performed by Archdeacon N. Peterson Boyd, rector of St. Phillip P. E. Church. The bride was given in marriage by her mother, Mrs. Jennie Morton, of Washington, D. C., Mrs. Lella Zabriskie, a sister of the bride, was matron of honor. Dr. Phil C. Robinson, long a friend and companion of the groom, and a best friend, left the couple by motor shortly after the ceremony and festivities for a honeymoon at the groom's country residence, Mattucktown, Long Island. She will be at home on Sept. 28, 1950, at 326
The Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor returned from his vacation and filled his pulpit at both services last Sunday. At the morning hour he began a series of sermons on "Messages From the Early Church," speaking on "The Significance of the Sacrament," which he said was central in the life of the early church. He held that it should be observed in the spirit of simplicity, humility, gladness and sacrifice. At the evening hour he began a series of sermons on "The Art of Making Life Easy," speaking on "How to Turn Funerals into Feasts." In his prelude he spoke of Chicago as the Paradise of the colored race, and yet there were thistles in this garden. Cecil McNair scholar in "The Green Pleasure" was accustomably at both services. He has a wonderfully rich voice, which is admirably adapted to the melodies he sings. Among the visitors of the day was Professor Banks of Straight College, New Orleans LA., who spoke of the school
Miss Georgia Wynn, 855 Macon street, and J. E. Bowie, 2010 Pitkin avenue, were received into the fellowship of the church.
Proctor forwarded to President Hoover the following resolutions passed at the National Convention of Congressional Workers Among the Colored People, held at Cleveland, Ohio, of the 19th century. "In view of the recurrence of the horrible practice of lynching and burning of American citizens, the President of the United States is urged to appoint

The Rev. J. A. S. Cole, pastor of the A. M. E. Zion Church, will take as his text Sunday, September 7: "Arise and Let's Be Going." At evening service in the building will be "I Do Set My Bowl in the Clouds as a Covenant to Man."
The Highland Falls Cubs finished the baseball season in the front rank of the series. Freedman Wright, catcher and the team's backbone, was rightly in the holding of the team together. His encouragement to the pitcher and players during the crises was certainly the result of grim determination.
Messrs. Robert Johnson, Jr., and William Fitchtet Jr., were the guests of friends in New York City last week.

The pastor will fill his pupil at both services next Sunday, speaking at the morning hour on "The Value of Assemblage and at the Trial of Tulip." In his preclude he will speak of economic conditions among Negroes in the West. The choir will be assisted by Mr. Patterson.

Some Sidelights On the Baptists
The National Baptist Publishing Board at Nashville, which has assets of $1,000,000, owes its existence to the refusal of white Baptists to publish the reports of the Negro churches, declared Henry Allen Boyd, secretary of the board, in his report last Wednesday. Dr. Bord is the son of the late Rev. R. H. Boyd, who founded the board thirty-four years ago.
Among the delegates from the far West, the Baptist meet was the Rev. G. L. Pruitt of Davenport, who drove his automobile to New York. Dr. Prince arrived in New York just in time to deliver his scheduled sermon to the convention Thursday night.
Among those attending the Sunday sessions were Mrs. P. F. Watson, formerly of Kansas, but now a returned missionary from the interior of Liberia, to which she will return in November with her translation of the New Testament into the Pessl language; Dr. C. G. Boone of Richmond, Va., who has spent twenty years in the Congo and Liberia, and Mrs. W. W. Calley, daughter of the late Rev. W. W. Calley of Alabama, organizer of the National Baptist Convention of America.
The National Baptist Convention supports missionaries in Russia, Haiti, South and Central America, in addition to those in Africa. Lot Carey, for whom the original missionary association was named, was the first Baptist missionary to go out from the United States. Carey was also a leader of the Americans who went to Africa and founded Liberia.
David Mdbona, native Kaffir from Iduttywa, South Africa, told the convention that his father had 20 wives. He is the old boy by his father's first wife. This position in the family carries with it the privilege of being sacrificed to the sacred crocodile. Fortunately for him, two weeks before the crocodile was to have the privilege of tasting his flesh his father was converted to Christianity.
Participating in the mammoth pageant last Wednesday night of the convention was Dr. C. H. Clark of Chicago; E. R. Clark of Owenbrough, Ky, and E. R. Robins of Little Rock, Ark., who were active members of the convention when it was founded fifty years ago.
"The African people," said Mrs. F. B. Watson, returned Liberian missionary, at the Sunday foreign missionary mass meeting, "are the most moral people in the world. All they need is a Christian education. Although a man can have as many wives as he can afford to buy, his first wife must approve each new comer, and each woman comes to him a virgin."
Mrs. W. W. Colley, widow of the founder of the National Baptist Convention of America, lives in New York City with her daughter, Mrs. W.lette C. Rowe, Mrs. Colley is now engaged in writing a book dealing with her husband's missionary activities. The late Dr. Colley fourteen years in Africa as a missionary, Mrs. Colley wrote with him for three years. It was during a vacation in this country after his first trip to Africa that Dr. Colley founded original Baptist convention. Three years later he returned to Africa under the auspices of the convention he had founded.

Good and Bad Bargains.
This column, to be identified as "Realty Pointers," is the efforts of a realty consultant and broker who, having given considerable and exhaustive study to the problems of land economics and specific attention to real estate transactions and the every-day intricacies involved therein, will give those whose knowledge of such transactions are limited some enlightenment upon the subject and upon the things they should know.
It is hoped and believed that the information as it appears from time to time will be of servicable use to the lay mind and that it may also be found to be of some value to those entering the field of reality business.

One of the most important bargains which a man ever makes is his bargain to purchase real estate. If he makes a good bargain he may enjoy the benefits for a lifetime. If he makes a bad bargain he frequently has a millstone about his neck as long as he lives and he may pass the burden to his children. There are various phases of real estate in which people are concerned and involved every day which require some knowledge to effect an intended purpose. If some enlightenment could be obtained through such articles by reducing their technical terms to common understanding, it should prove to be of educational value and advantageous if applied at the proper time and place.
Johnson Lodge in their new quarters in St. Luke's Hall was held Monday night with Excalled Ruler R. Benjamin Fray in the chair. The lodge, chartered in the Bronx, has a special dispensation to meet in Harlem where the vast majority of the members live.
Among the Henry Lincoln Johnson members seen in Detroit were Exalted Ruler Fray, Lionel Kelly, secretary, and Laurie B. Elcock, former secretary. The lodge will be represented at the ceremonies attending the removal of the body of the late Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson when it is moved from its present resting place in Harmony Cemetery to the Lincoln Memorial Cemetery in Washington, D.C.
One of the strong men who has emerged from the recent convention is J. Dalmus Steele.
The 32 Club of Brooklyn, headed by its president, Edward E. Jones, made the trip to Peekskill, thirty-nine strong, Sunday to see the 369th boys in Camp Smith. Many of the 32 members were former members of the old "Fifteenth."
George W. Billups is chairman of the committee arranging for the annual Hallowe'en reception of the club.
The Eleven O'Clock Club of Imperial Lodge resumed its bi-monthly meetings last Sunday with a session at the home of John Turner in West 142d street. The president, Walter Henderson, presided.
The Boosters Club, of which Mrs. Bessie Walker is president, held its regular meeting Saturday evening at Monarch Home. The members were happy over the victory of the candidates they endorsed. Plans were made for the usual annual banquet to be tendered the members in October. The club announced that Mrs. Abbie M. Johnson, the present grand daughter ruler, will be a candidate again in 1931 in Philadelphia.

The Rising Tide of Rum
Rambling Ruminations By J. A. ROGERS
The First American Negroes
I PID Commendor thought that Negroes were first brought to this continent in the year 1619, when twenty were landed at Jamestown. Lester A. Walton in last Sunday's World calls attention to the historical fact that Negroes were in North America as long ago as 1493, when they were brought to Santo Domingo by Columbus. Thence some of them came to the mainland, some as attendants to Ponce de Leon when he sought the fountain of youth. A Negro named Estevanico was the first to explore the southwest of what is now the United States. It is stated by some writers that even on Columbus's first voyage to America in 1492 he was accompanied by a few Negroes.
NEGROES have had a much larger part in American history than they are credited with. Indirectly they caused this country's acquisition of the great expanse of territory between the Mississippi and the Rocky Mountains. This land was sold to the United States by Napoleon chiefly because a black republic, Haiti, lay directly in the line of communication between France and Louisiana and could cut that line whenever it pleased. It is high time such facts were written into the histories.

The politician is still busy at his age-old game. He is ever prone to subordinate moral principle to political expedition. With him righteousness is always found on the side that promises the most votes. Republicans and Democrats are angry issue out. They would make a political issue out of them, the sun-spots. If others could be easily persuaded to follow their fortune by appeal to such acts of Providence.

The Republican party is the greater sufferer of this house divided against itself. The primaries have played havoc with the hopes of the Grand Old Party as the haven of the drys. In New Jersey the battle line was sharply drawn; the wets won. in Illinois the dry Republicans won. in New York the rivalry between the two parties is one of relative wetness.

THE DEFEAT of Senator Cole Blease of South Carolina for renomination ends another sorry chapter in the history of demagogy. Like the infamous Tillman and Vardaman, he used race hate as his chief stock in trade. These men sat in the Senate because they could outvilify their rivals when it came to the Negro question. Whenever a matter requiring statesmanship came up in the Senate they were at a loss. They were bewildered by questions of foreign or internal policy, unless they concerned the Negro, and even then their only contribution was vituperation.
BLEASE had always stood as a friend of labor and the laborers of his state believed him. But when Judge Parker, an enemy of labor, came up for confirmation to the Supreme Court Blease voted for him. His given reason was that he wanted a Southerner in the Supreme Court, obviously to help hold the Negro down. He showed that he was less a friend of labor than an enemy of the Negro, and labor at last woke up and turned against him.
PARIS.
In spite of strong opposition from labor unions of many European countries, the natives of French West Africa will be forced to devote a certain period to the construction of public works and other improvements in their lands.
The Minister of the Colonies, M. Francois Petit, in signing the decree strenuously denies that it is forced labor, in the popular meaning of the term, and declares that the measure was necessary to stave off periods of starvation, to wipe out certain diseases, and to stop the carrying of loads on the heads of natives for long distances.
THE BETTER white citizens of South Carolina must have breathed a sigh of relief when they found that Blease had been defeated. If he had won South Carolina would have gone on record before the world as a state which had voted for lynching in preference to the Constitution. Even Southerners do not wish to be represented in the Senate by a man who lives in hell with the Constitution!" Every man, when closely scrutinized, bears a resemblance to some animal, and of all the men in public life Blease was most like that loathsome thing of the desert, the carrion-eating hyena. Now the bark of the hyena is gone and the American Senate may be that much cleaner.
In an interview in Le Journal, M. Pietrl says: "The term 'forced labor,' so much used by the conference at Geneva, is rejected by us. The term is altogether unacceptable and unpaid. In Africa labor requisition for public works is paid for at the same rate as the voluntary labor." In some of the French colonies in Africa, he said, the method of recruiting native labor was the same as that that had been practiced in Belgium, Holland, and England in some of their colonies.

The International Bureau of Labor, headed by Albert Thomas, member of the British Cabinet, in opposing forced labor, defined it as any labor for which the Negroes do not offer themselves voluntarily.
THE NEGRO Baptists of America are to be congratulated upon their fiftieth annual convention. The millions of Negro Baptists, as well as the millions in other denominations, are a living refutation of the theory that the Negro is getting away from religion.
M. Blaise Dlagne, Negro member from Senegal, in supporting the motion for forced labor, said that it was necessary in order to teach them modern methods of agriculture.
SOME THINKERS hold that the Negro would have been better off if he had paid less attention to religion and more to economics; but it does not follow that if he had abandoned or neglected religion his interests would have turned to economic development. Certainly the economic condition of such Negroes as have derided religion is nothing to boast of. Indeed a comparison of the wealth of Negro church members with that of non-members would very likely be to the advantage of the former.
THE action of the Soviet government in sentencing the two Americans, Lewis and Brown, who attacked a negro worker, to two years' imprisonment, which was suspended, and ten years' banishment, is being widely commented on here. Capitalistic circles see in it a direct bid for the favor of the Negro, while Communist and Labor circles generally feel that Russia has set an example in good government for the United States. The attack on the negro worker at Stalagrad were taught a lesson, while the far more serious crime of lynch murder in the United States always goes unpunished.
THE NEGRO has had very little share in the government of the nation; his churches have given him his only opportunity for self-government. They have been his moral, social and aesthetic centers for seventy years, and such convocations as the National Baptist Convention attest that he still clings to them.

A Notable Victory
A Notable Victory
AFTER TWO YEARS of fighting Negroes of Virginia have won a notable victory. In 1928 James O. West sued three election judges for $5,000 damages because they had denied him the right to vote in the primary election of April 3 of that year. Under the Virginia Democratic primary election law the court decided against West. He appealed from this judgment to the United States Circuit Court, which unanimously held that the Virginia primary law was unconstitutional. It was expected that the election judges would appeal to the United States Supreme Court for a reversal of the Circuit Court's decision; but the sixty days allotted for the appeal have passed without their taking any action, and the decision will stand.
THIS VICTORY establishes an important precedent for all similar cases in the South, indicating that in spite of the bitterest opposition the tide is slowly but surely turning in favor of Negro enfranchisement. The apathy of many Negroes in the face of disfranchisement is only human; but a determined and continued insistence upon the right to vote is the only way to win it.

went down to wet Republican Massachusetts and
lent, weak-kneed politician is forced to take sides.
The Republican drys have the great advantage. They are in possession of the Government on a dry declaration of principle. The people have all but unanimously endorsed prohibition as the national policy. They have written it in the Constitution, and charged the Republican party with the duty of enforcing it. But this is not merely a matter of legalism. The party in power is also charged with the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments, but it falls asleep at the switch while the train of nullification goes by.
Any measure is bound to fall unless the Government charged with its enforcement has some moral enthusiasm for its principles. It will not do to follow the philosophy of Mr. Coolidge, that the law is the law and ought to be obeyed, but effective enforcement, rests on the enforcement of the law, which is right and must be obeyed. Unless the Republican party speedily gains the conviction that prohibition is right and must be enforced, a third party will soon rise with this single end in view. The time the Grand Old Party allow history to repeat itself, or will it, by moral energy and enterprise, shape the course of history. The
Don't Over-insure
I have been observing for many years the disposition of many people to carry too much life insurance and to often lose it by lazing on account of inability to pay for a large number of policies.
Before they can take new insurance often sickness and death come upon them, and they are without its much-needed protection at this time.
Overproduction is recognized as a bad economic principle. The business which overproduces loses money and sometimes the entire business, a bridge which can standle passenger bridge which can not be imposed upon by a truck; an individual swinging bridge cannot hold an army; a quart jug won't hold a gallon. There must be a determination of what "the traffic will stand" and when the green "GO says enough, the red "STOP" caution should be switched on. These are very expressive, but I think they are good business ideas how much insurance he is buying and he should have a budget and figure out each week how much money he is going to have and how much he can afford to spend for the several things he has to buy.
Special attention should be directed to the fact that the masses of people must carry "industrial insurance" in a weekly, rather than ordinary insurance of larger amounts, with premiums, payable quarterly, semi-quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. Here the need of what insurance the individual can carry safely and certainly is very important, for the masses are learning that are are safe insurance that is safest and most profitable investment of money for future need. education business capital investment.
The causes of this condition of overinsurance are chiefly two: (1) The overzealousness of the high-powered salesman or the lack of analyzing and estimating ability on the part of the agent. This, any efficient company should discourage, for it brings disaster to company, agent, and policyholder alike. Every company wants and build all its goods in good legitimate business it can write, keep on its books, set up reserve for; but no company is entirely wise if it takes business without regard to the "carrying" ability of the insured. (2) The lack of insurance wisdom and a program and budget on the part of the insured. In this day of the installment plan, people buy any and everything as "futures" on a stock market, that stock goes up, that stock goes down, that if "stock goes down," it as certainly will very often, the investors lose.
The stock referred to here is the possessions and income of the policyholder. He should have a pro-
fession. He should understand what kind and

'Suicides Confined Almost Entirely to Whites'—Dublin
That suicide in the United States is almost entirely confined to white people is the statement made by Louis I. Dublin, white, statistician of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, writing in the September Harper's Magazine on "To Be of Not to Be?" "Suicide in the United States is almost altogether limited to white people," Mr. Dublin writes. "Among our eleven million Negroes there are anomalies about five hundred of self-destruction. This fact is particularly significant since it is among the colored people that the very highest homicide rates prevail." "There is, therefore, apparently little ground for believing that suicide and homicide go hand in hand, and that both reflect a contempt for human life. Two different psychological techniques apparently involved. Homicide is generally the outcome of sudden occasion and follows immediately the murderous impulse."
"Suicide on the other hand, is usually the result of premeditation and a brooding introspection, the reason which make homicide impossible."

CANDIDE Paris weekly, comment on the fact, that the colored Gold Star Mothers do not stop at the same hotels as the white ones, thinks that this was done in order that the segregation between American white and American colored should be complete.
It says: "The Negroes of America did not come to France only to play jazz and to initiate us to the Intoxication of the Charleston. They came during the war as soldiers, and when they left for home many were missing, leaving and being nothing more than little white crosses among many other little white crosses.
"At the same time the white Gold Mothers came to see these little white crosses also came the colored mothers. But at the same time' does not mean 'with' Race prejudice remained intact, in spite of all. You would think that death would be sufficient to efface it in such a case—but, no! The Gold Mothers all want to the same hotel, from which all the Americans fied immediately. Each day the officers conduct the Gold Star Mothers to the Elffel river, Napoleon's Tomb, or the Catacombs, but the colored mothers are never taken into those 'places of perdition' where the white mothers go to get acquainted with the last word in Parisian 'febchau.'"

existing parties, in days gone by palliated and extemporized with slavery; whence arose the Republican party dedicated to this great objective. It takes no prophete to predict that unleashed, positive, emphatic attitude on prohibition as a moral issue, and not merely as a political expediency, a new party will spring up and sweep the country within a few years, just as the party which Mr. Hoover now demoralized and demolished Whigs and Democrats in the election of 1860. The approaching fall election will determine the fate of men and parties. The wets are aggressive, as the pro-slavery forces were in a former day. The moralists have always believed that right will ultimately trumpt over wrong; but the hope is that the power upon its inherent righteousness, but rather upon its soundness as a practical policy.
Abraham Lincoln, who, by the way, was one of the earliest advocates of prohibition, in words sublimely simple and simply sublime, has told us that this nation cannot exist half slave and half free. The nation of the United States. The wider application of his logic is inescapable. This nation cannot exist half wet and half dry. Which shall it be?
many years the disposition of life insurance and to often lose ability to pay for a large number how much insurance he is buying and he should have a budget and figure out each week how much he will need. If much he can afford to spend for the several things he has to buy.
Special attention should be directed to the fact that the masses of people must carry "industrial insurance," small allotments, payable weekly, rather than ordinary insurance of larger amounts, with premiums, payable quarterly, semi-quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. Here the need of what insurance can carry safely and certainly is very important, for the masses are learning, as are those who carry ordinary insurance, that the safest and most profitable investment of money for future need, education, business capital, retirement, skincess, or death, is life insurance.
Surely this is a good conclusion of the whole matter. Buy what insurance you need. right kind, right quantity, from right company, and grapple with your very soul with hope of seeing it do something cause you to lapse it. But do not buy every policy that comes along, without regard to your need and ability to keep it up.
This is not a criticism, except it be considered a constructive criticism affecting the welfare of all companies alike. I give this caution to safeguard the business of all companies and to guarantee the having of the insurance by the insured when they need it. Our company, the North Carolina Mutual, constantly makes the demand upon its agents that they do not overinsure any individual and that they do not "twist" business from another company. We have survived and prospered by this Golden Rule of doing the insurance, business and I am sure that all companies can and will give this kind of protection and service to their policyholders.

Unspoiled Humanity
FOLK TALES OF A SAVAGE, by Lobagola.
Published by Alfred A. Knopf, New York. $2.00.
SEVERAL WRITERS have asked whether civilization is worth the price humanity has paid for it. They complain of the din, of the clang and bang and honk of machinery, of the skyscrapers whose erection costs a hundred lives, of automobiles that kill more persons than some wars; the human soul, they lament, is being stifled. But what these thinkers deplore is not really civilization; it is mechanization. The civilization that scholars rank as the highest existed thousands of years before modern machinery was heard of.
Yet there is something in the lament of the thinkers who question the ultimate value of modern mechanization. They are right when they say that too many things are canned and predigested, so that people may get the maximum of pleasure with a minimum of satisfaction. This predication tends to cause humanity to undervalue fundamental things, to make for lazy bodies and lazy minds, till people become bored because they obtain things too easily. That is why so many people try to get away to the country every year and rough it for a while.
Such thoughts always arise when one reads a book in which civilization, or mechanization, as we know it, does not appear, in which simplicity is reduced to a primitive simplicity which changes never heard of an automobile, a mirror or a typewriter, in which the conceited preconceptions of modernism fall away.
One of those preconceptions is that savage people have no literature. And why? Because, forsooth, they can neither read nor write. We have grown so used to literature in writing and print that most of us cannot imagine a life without it. We have grown so used that before men wrote they had to have something to write; that Homer himself only set down tales that had been handed on by word of mouth through the generations. Literature was spoken long before it was written, and the spoken kind may have been the better. Literature provides people is course, a spoken literature. Africans, especially, seem to have an endless supply of mythology and folk lore. Bookfuls of their legends have been dripping from the presses for ten years and they continue to drip.

"Achievements of Negro Women" in Sketch Form
A sketch in eight episodes, portraying the "Achievements of Negro Women." In a form suitable for simple presentation by groups of almost any size, has recently been prepared by Miss Geneva W. Blake, social worker and teacher at Cheyney Training School. The purpose of this sketch, to quote from the foreword, is "to encourage a deeper interest in Negro women, and that they are doing, also to develop the latent artistic powers of the groups giving the pageant by having them interpret in their own way the work of these outstanding women." The characters outlined are chosen, from various fields and times—Phyllis Wheatley, the poet of George Washington's day, down to Mary Bethune, the educator, and Marlon Anderson, the famous contralto. Material for reference is suggested. Leaflet "Achievements of Negro Women." may be obtained from the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, 1924 Chestnut street, Philadelphia.

His full name—a native of West
Africa and a picturesque character.
They are simple enough for child-
ren and are full of homely wi-
dom. It is a wonderful that the
Africans, like the Occidentals, in-
stinctly choose animals as the
characters of most of their fables.
In this book all the personae are
animals.
African stories are told in song, like the old European epics, such as the Norse sagas and the Nibelungenlied. In the African villages at night the fires are lit to keep off the wild beasts and the inhabitants gather about them to talk over the news of the day. No matter what has happened the story teller has a fable to illustrate whatever point of conduct it brings out. He is paid the closest attention, not a word is missed, and his stories are rarely forgotten.
In this book the story-teller is an old man, wrinkled almost out of human semblance, who has been everywhere, done everything and seen everything. He starts in by telling of a hippopotamus who was so clumsy and noisy that he could not catch anybody. Then there is a duel of wits between a monkey and a leopard. The leopard is hungry, and seeing a monkey up in a tree he pretends that he has a thorn in his paw and cannot walk. He asks the monkey to come out. The wise monkey says he cannot because his tail is caught between two branches, and he cannot more. Hearing that, the leopard instantly climbs the tree, only to see the monkey skip away out of reach and call all the other monkeys to laugh at the leopard.
The eternal disagreement of age and youth is illustrated by 300 young monkeys who will not listen to their elder's advice to let man eat them out to destroy a village, but will into an elephant pit, where they die. It is a young elephant, too, who does not wish to be an elephant. First he tries to be gazele but gets tired of jumping but he plays with apes but not agile enough, the tries to be a bird, but cannot fly.
That savages believe in work is shown by the tale of the black beetle who thinks that the world owes him a living without workings none of the working insects will give him food. There are an elephant and a rhinoceros who guard without cause till they are ready to fight. Another elephant ridiculus a mosquito for being as small—ill the mosquito stings him and causes him to fissure with fessions of generosity but never perform it are shown off by the story of the giraffe, who says she would help a distressed zebra if only had the time.
The wisdom of polite speech is demonstrated by the buffaloes who invite the rhinoceros people to a feast. The buffalo messenger delivers the invitation brusquely "Come over to us." The rhinoceros people were angry at what sounded like an order; they were ready to fight. Later the buffalo messenger met a lion and said: "Go to the Rhino people and tell them to come to our feast." The lion bristled at the peremptory time and knocked the buffalo head over heels.
The story of Androcles and the lion is told here in another story. A man pulls a thorn from a suffering apes' foot, and later, when the lion is injured, he walks a village and stolen the baby, the same apes returns it. In this story, incidentally, the narrator says that men and apes are brothers. It seems that Darwin was not so original, after all.

My Dream Castle
THE castle I build in my dream
is so bigh
Its towers, like fingers, take hold of the sky.
Its walls are of fasper; its door hand-carved gold.
So like fairy castles in tales that are told.
I rule in my castle; all's happy and glad.
There's no room for teardrops, no time to be sad.
The sun's always shining, the sky always clear.
There's no sign of trouble, not gloom far or near.
But coals that burn bright in fireplace must die.
And white, smoking embers will mark where they lie.
My castle, like bubbles, will burn
in the air.
And on the eardrop will tell it
was there.
