Civic and Religious Affairs for Many Years. Julius C. Johnson, prominent for years in the councils of the Grand United Order of Odd Fewnbsr of America, died at his home, 1234 Etting street, last Sunday morning, following an illness of more than nine months. The deceased was taken ill with pleurisy last winter. Pus collected in his side, and he was taken to John Hopkins Hospital for treatment. While relieved somewhat, he never was able to attend to his business as a caterer. The hope was expressed by his hosts of friends in various parts of the country that he would get well, but his condition steadily grew worse. He began to sink last week, and the end came Sunday morning. The deceased was born in Anno Arundel county, Md., in January 1856. He had lived in Baltimore for years. For seventeen years he was headwaiter at Ganghorn's later went to working business. He was family man in the truest sense of the word and accumulated the property. Mr. Johnson joined Humane Lodge of Odd Fellows 36 years ago. He took a deep interest in the Order and it was not many years before he was elected Grand Master for Maryland. He had served as a national grand director, and when the Biennial Meeting Committee met in 1910 he was elected grand treasurer, succeeding Benjami J. Dawls of Atlanta. He was named national deputy grand master in 1914, and was filling that office at the time of his death. POPULAR IN ORDER During all the strife that has existed since 1912 between the Edward H. Morris and B. J. Davis forces of the Order he managed to keep the friendship of both sides. He was a trusted, however, of the Morris faction, Grand Master Edward H. Morris and other prominent members of fraternity had visited him several times during his illness. The deceased leaves a wdow, who was Miss Lillie V. Matthews. His father (Mr. William Johnson), three sons (John, Julius C., Jr., and W. Goldsborough Johnson), four daughters (Misses A. Noel, Josephine M., Jeannette and E. Maude Johnson), four brothers (Dunleil, Benjamin, Nicholas and John Johnson) and four sisters (Messiah Margaret Richardson, Ennis, Alrey Hawkins and Rachel Hayward), are among the surviving relatives. The deceased had been a member of Sharp Street Memorial Church for years. He was serving as treasurer of the board of trustees at the time of his death. He was also a member of the Public Walters' Association. Funeral services were held at the church Wednesday afternoon. The remains lay in state from 11 A. M. to 1 P. M., during which period hundreds took a last look at the remains of the prominent lodgeman. The services were attended by many prominent Odd Fellows including Grand Master Edward H. Morris, of Chicago; Grand Treasurer W. David Brown, of New York City; Grand Secretary James F. Needham, of Philadelphia; W. L. Houston, of Washington, former national grand master; Henry P. Slaughter, of Washington, editor of the Odd Fellows' Journal; Prof. Stephen H. Long, of Poeconia City, district grand secretary of Maryland; Jesse L. Nicholas, of Gowan, district grand secretary of members of Baltimore Parish Church Regiment No. 9 and Association from the Public Waiters' Association. The active pallebearers were members of the Public Waiters' Association. A delegation from Baltimore Patrarchy acted as honorary pallebearers. The principal eulogy was delivered by Rev. M. J. Naylor, pastor of Sharp Street Memorial Church. With all the honors due an Odd Fellow the body was laid in its last resting place in Mt. Auburn Cemetery. The floral tributes were numerous and hand-some. VETERAN TEACHER DIES St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 22—The funeral of Mrs. Mary Jane McLean, who died last Thursday, was held at St. Paul A. M. E.

COURT City Authorities and Police Dept. Fail To Recognize Recent decision of Supreme Court DR. COLEMAN ARRESTED As a result of the city authorities and the police department failing to recognize the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court abrogating the Louisville segregation law, the validity of the Baltimore segregation ordinance is now before the United States District Court for interpretation. The case is that of Dr. William T. Coleman, who bought the dwelling at the corner of McCulloh and Bloom street, and moved therein. A warrant was sworn out for the arrest of Dr. Coleman, charging him with violating the law by moving into a white block. He was arraigned in the Northwestern Police Station Friday morning of this week, where Justice Brende hold him in $300 bail. He refused to give bail, and was placed in charge of Capt. George G. Henry, awaiting to be sent to Jail. Attorney Warner T. McGuilin went before Judge John C. Rose, of the United States Court, armed with a petition for the release of the doctor through habeas corpus proceedings. Judge Rose decided to hear the argument on December 4, and released Dr. Coleman on $100 bail. The petition for habeas corpus proceedings states that Dr. Coleman bought the property sometime ago, but did not move it, being advised such. He moved into the dwelling after the Supreme Court annulled the law of Louisville. The petition concludes with the assertion that the Baltimore segregation law is "null and void in that the same violates the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States guaranteeing to each citizen protection of the law preventing any State from the interference with the property rights of any citizen except by due process of law."

TO RAISE $10,000 FOR WORK AMONG SOLDIERS TO RAISE $10,000 FOR WORK AMONG SOLDIERS Philadelphia, November 22d.—Following a conference here Wednesday between representatives of the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension and the Board of Foreign Missions of the M. E. Church, it was announced that a big drive would be made to secure $1,000,000 from the three hundred thousand colored members of the denomination toward the $30,000,000 Methodists have set out to raise for various purposes. Rev. Dr. J. C. Sherrill, who is connected with the Board of Foreign Missions, and Rev. Dr. W. A. C. Hughes, assistant secretary of the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension, were the colored representatives present. Dr. Hughes will leave about the first of December for visits to conferences and churches in Alabama and South Carolina. He will also endeavor to raise $10,000 among colored churches for carrying on religious and moral uplift work at various army camps. Dr. Hughes told a representative of the Afro-American that the Methodist Episcopal Church is carrying forward a big program. "Our aim will not only be to make the colored work self-supporting," he said, "but will be able to inculcate a feeling of responsibility. We purpose trying raise an equal amount with the whites for the redemption of Africa. The natives there need religious, educational, moral influences. "The looking after the moral welfare of the thousands of colored draftees at the various cantonments is a matter that concerns us all. The Y. M. C. A. and other agencies cannot do all. We must see that our people generally are interested, and to that end I will try to raise $10,000." He said that draftees visiting cities must be thrown into good surroundings and away from the saloon. He told of the work that the Guild House of Asbury M. E. Church, Annaplis, Md., is doing to throw proper safecards around young men visiting that city. Recreation rooms and dormitories are provided for visiting soldiers. This, he said, should obtain in all cities near army camps. DR. W. T. CARR HEADS RED CROSS CHAPTE? Interest among local colored people in Red Cross work first developed in the Women's Cooperative Civic League in the fall of 1914, when on the appeal of Mrs. Julius Freeman, director of the Baltimore Chapter of the National Red Cross, a committee of the League, under the leadership of Mrs. K. Bertha Hurst, was formed to make garments to be sent In the first relief shipment from Baltimore to the Belgians. Their sufferings under the German invasion had been graphically described by Mrs. Freeman at a meeting of the League. The quick sympathy and ready response of the Cooperative Civic League was not forgotten by Mrs. Freeman, and in the stress of the present need for systematic organization of the work of providing knitted garments for the soldiers she turned again to this body. As a result, on Friday evening of last week at 553 Druld Hill avenue, the organization of the colored branch of the Baltimore Chapter of the American Red Cross was perfected with the following executive committee: Dr. William T. Carr, chairman; Mr. Walls Lansey, secretary; Dr. B. M. Rhetta, treasurer; Mr. C. L. Davis, Bishop John Hurst, Mr. James W. Hughes, Rev. R. W. S. Thomas, Mr. John Rich, Mr. Masn A. Hawkins, Rev. Ernest Lyon, Mr. S. S. Booker and Mr. William White. Mrs. Sarah C. Fernandis is director and Mrs. Mamle P. Thomas and Miss Frances L. Murphy, supervisors. WHITE BRUTE GETS 2 Judge Allen McLane, of the Baltimore County Circuit Court, set his seal of disapproval on the acts of that class of white men who would insult and assault colored women, when he gave Leroy Griggs a sentence of two years in the House of Correction last Friday. The woman, who was Miss Bertha D. Ford, and has since been married, was a passenger on June 8th last on a Sparrows Point car of which Griggs was conductor. The woman was carried past her destination and Briggs attempted to assault her. The case was brought to the attention of the attorney said Griggs was arrested. He was released on $2000 bail pending trial. The testimony at the trial, which took place at Towson on Tuesday of last week, was of a revolting nature. States Attorney Hartman vigorously prosecuted the case. Griggs was defended by William H. Lawrence, who, it is said, urged Griggs' acquittal on the ground that the testimony of a colored woman should not overweigh that of a white man in so serious a case. Lawrence was the Republican candidate for Congress from the Second District in 1916. Griggs is a married man. CAMP MEADE BOYS LOOK FORWARD TO COMMISSIONS Many of the Drafted Men Will Be Given Opportunity to Qualify for Commissions. A Number Non Commissioned Officers Appointed. NIGHT SCHOOLS TO BE STARTED FOR ILLITERATES Rev. S. A. Virgil, Pastor of St. Paul Church, and 100 of His Members Visit Camp. Philadelphia Ministers Also Make Pilgrimage. ERICAN CAMP MEADE BOY FORWARD TO Many of the Drafted Men W nity to Qualify for Commi Non Commissioned Offi NIGHT SCHOOLS TO BE START Rev. S. A. Virgil, Pastor of St of His Members Visit C Ministers Also Make BY FRANKLIN F. JOHNSON Cump Mende, Md., November 23.— As the days go by the men are getting more and more into the spirit of the song "We're Going to Get the Kaiser," It is true that the 6,000 colored draftees have not received army uniforms as yet, but the great majority are wearing blue overalls and jumpers. Uncle Sam should be on the job with the regulation uniform, however, and then the men will be ready to show their prowess on the battlefield. Many of the men have received the regulation army shoes, and it is a pretty sight to see russet shoes moving in unison at drills. This was "moving week" for a number of the Baltimore dreads, and the men from the 14th and 17th wards have new quarters. The comers included a number of young colored men from the counties of Maryland. But few of the men have enjoyed a leave of absence as yet, although a large number expect to be allowed to return to their homes for Thanksgiving Day. Of course, the boys from philadelphia as Tennessee will not be get away, but they will receive boxes from home, which, added to the generous dinner that Uncle Sam intends giving his boys on that day, will make life enjoyable. A TALE OF HONESTY Capt. W. D. Peeks, of Company K, 368 Infantry, believes that he has the best outfit in the big aggregation. He has under him 259 men from Tennessee. He says that he has not had to have one of his men punished for any infraction of military rules. He points with pride to a little incident that shows his men to be honest. The Tennesseeans were summoned for duty on October 27, thus making them have several pay days for that month. The men received their money several days ago. When the accounts were checked up it was found that some unknown trooper had received $2 too much. Captain Peeks, when apprised of the occurrence, gathered his men together, and told them of the happening and said that the company would be placed in most favorable light by the man who got the $2 giving up. Immediately a trooper stepped forth, and declared that he nother than some others, tendering $2. The money was turned over to the paymaster's department and Colonel Jackson was loud in his praise of the man. He said that it was the first time in his years or army service that he knew of such. At the headquarters of the company a letter is on file commending the return of the money. TO TEACH ILLITERATES Plans are under way to have schools of instruction for illiterates. Several of the officers say that they will have the men reading and writing within the next two months. Many of the illiterates are anxious to learn. A large amount of reading is done by the men, newspapers and magazines being in evidence. The Afro-American is the most generally read race journal; in fact, other, race journals have only a negligible circulation at the camp. A CHANCE FOR PROMOTION The drafteres are to be given a chance to qualify as commissioned officers, the commanding officer of each company nominating men, who will begin receiving training therefore in January. The men who successfully complete the course will receive commissions as vacancies occur among the officers. The Y. M. C. A. and other agencies are leaving no stone unturned in giving the men instruction along religious and moral lines. Preaching and song services are held on Sundays and song services several nights in the week. The men have expressed the intention to lead better lives. Rev. S. A. Virgil, pastor of St. Paul M. E. Church, Baltimore, preached a well-received sermon to the men Sunday afternoon. He was accompanied by 100 members of his congregation. Music was furnished by the choir of the church, under the direction of Mr. Thomas H. Franklin. Rev. E. W. Williams, of Washington will preach this Sunday. GREETING FROM PHILADELPHIA Nearly 500 men from Philadelphia crowded the Y. M. C. A. building at D59 Wednesday, and heard Rev. F. H. Butler, pastor of Zoar M. E. Church, Philadelphia, and Dr. W. H. Barnes bring greetings from their fellow townsmen. Dr. Butler said that the Philadelphia came from a city where democracy in America became a reality through the signing of the Declaration of Independence. He said they are expected to help carry the spirit of democracy, to the world. He told the men that the Philadelphia Red Cross is ready to furnish them with sweaters and other necessities. The Afro-American is Maryland's Greatest Colored Weekly Newspaper BOYS LOOK TO COMMISSIONS Will Be Given Opportunities. A Number Officers Appointed. STARTED FOR ILLITERATES of St. Paul Church, and 100 t Camp. Philadelphia Make Pilgrimage. Dr. Barnes said that the environment under which many colored people are forced to live made for bad health conditions, but that there should be nothing said against the health of colored conscripts when companies whites in the same as both races lived under the same conditions. Dr. George W. Cabinis, who has charge of colored Y. M. C. A. work at the camp; M. B. McAden, one of his assistants; Rev. R. F. Contes, of Woodville, Md.; Rev. J. W. Dockett, of Waterbury, Md.; Rev. D. D. Turpeau, M. W. Clair and W. H. Dean all of Washington, were among other speakers. Cabinis said appeals would be made to the citizens of Washington, Baltimore and Philadelphia for funds with which to equip a band. A CONTRAST IN THINGS While the Philadelphiaers were hearing the speeches a big crowd was gathered in the Y. M. C. A. at B-39 taking in a good amateur ministrel show. The work or the participants showed good ability in the amusement line among the conscripts. The boys from the 14th ward, Baltimore, have been literally burning things up this week while they whiled away their idle time. It all came about through the action of William Kyler, John Goens, Howard Gooden, Milburn Taylor, William Henson, Harry Jobes and Bernard Berry in sending some smokable things to them. The consignment included two packages of cigarettes, 100 recruit cigarettes, 24 packages of Derby cigarettes, 24 packages of Bull-Durham tobacco and three boxes of cigars. While the smoke went up clouds the men sent silent thanks to their friends in Baltimore. Robert Babb, one of the 14th ward men, has been named a corporal in Battery D, of the 351st Artillery. He is also chief mechanic to the commander of the company. A VICTROLA ARRIVES Some of the friends of the 11th ward contingent sent them a victrola, and now music comes from their barracks each night. They and the 17th warders occupy the same barracks. Planos for some of the quarters are expected to arrive shortly, and thus they will enjoy some of the good times while they have been used "back home." The Liberty Funmaker will give an entertainment at Y. M. C. A at D-39 next Monday night. Billy Ritchie will have charge of the affair. The following non commissioned officers have been chosen for Company E, 368th Infantry: Acting Sergeants—Carl Warrick, J. James Newton, Allan Freelon, Clarence Legan, G. C. Widgeon.

REFUSE TO WORK Camp McCleason, Ala., November 22 —Thirty members of the First Separate Company of Maryland were placed in the guardhouse at the remount station last Sunday for having refused to work before breakfast, it is alleged. The remount is about three miles from the division camp. Seventy men had been detached from Captain William Spencer's command and assigned to do stable duty at the remount station, where there are 12,000 horses and mules quartered. The thirty men, it is said, did not like assignment. Furthermore, there was said to be some friction with the Richmond (Va.) Blues, a white aggregation. The First Separate Company during its more than 35 years of existence has never had any trouble with white troops, though it has frequently been at State encampments where white national guardsmen were. Major. Rellley, of Annapolis, said that the men at the remount station were no longer under his command, and those over whom he had charge are orderly lot. @:, Mother’s Best Thanksgiving A STORY - BY MARGARET BLACK oe Kes front of him pleased him immenseiy.

Now lthat's alright 4s it?” j "Yes," said mother “that's a | plenty.” . "So father gathered up his money, | put them together in one pocket, and {handed mother hers tast of all, at the same lime joking mother about get- ting sporty in her old day's. “Now don't firt with any strangers, ldon't get lost. and above all don’t let iany one rob you. Stick tight to that [rol], its wi] you'll get.” | Then he picked up his hat and |went out with her to see that she got on the right car, before he spruced up te go down to the bank, and do his own errands. ‘After they had gone Martha dressed und put baby Hiram to sleep, hurried- ly put the house to rights and then went to the phone and called up Dor- cas Ann. “Do tome over for a couple of hours. I want to talk to you a Jittle, sed J can talk and prepare the things for dinner also.” “Alright,” was the reply, “I'l go by the school and tell Tom to come to your house for lunch and I'll help you prepare dinner.” Doreas Ann hurriedly put_ things straight and in an hour's time way at Martha's, ‘Martha wasalwaye glad to see Dor- cas Ann. They were excellent friends and just like real sisters, and Martha being quite young, depended a good bit on Dorcas Ann for advice, as she vas alone except for her husband and baby having neither kith nor kin to Jook to, and now she Just had to talk to some one because she was very in- dignant that Jack's father should be 50 tight with mother when she knew mother had worked hard to help him learn the money so when the door bell rang she fairly flew to open the door to let Dorcas Ann in. “Oh, Dorcas Ann, my but I'm glad to see’ you" she sald. “Mother and father have gone out to do their won- derful shopping and what do you think he gave snother for a suit?

She should have had sense enough to turn round and come back so 1 could have gotten back to the bank before it closed.

J'm not hungry now and I'l wait until Idinner time. 1 guess your mother will soon be coming now. 1 guess you girls would have finished your shopping no doubt about it, and spent money recklessly when you found you had it.

HAMPTON SPRINGS SUR-1 UNION VICTORIOUS PRISE ON LINCOLN; 7-0 OVER HOWARD 16-0 BY W. EVERETT CLARK Much to the very evident surprise of the Lincolnites, Hampton Institute met and defeated, on Friday afternoon, her old rival, Lincoln University, on the Institute grounds, before a large crowd of loyal supporters. Promptly at two-thirty, Lincoln lined up to receive the kick. After receiving the ball on her 20 yard line and running it back several yards she was forced to kick. Hampton at once began some terrific line plunging, but on being penetrated forced to kick. alized with lines strengthened preceptively, and the ball was kicked by both sides before any gains were made. Lincoln's right halfback finally got away for a 15 yard end run. The Penn boys were again forced to kick. After plunging the time for a first down, Hampton kicked the ball to the centre of the field, and the first quarter ended with no score. SYRACUS LINE. The second quarter began with Lincoln attempting a forward pass which was caught by Hampton. The ball was fumbled, however, and was covered by Lincoln on Hampton's twenty line. This gave the visitors more speed and another pass brought the ball within 5 yards of Hampton's goal. The situation seemed to be unsuccessful. It seemed as though the Lincolnites would make a touchdown. Hampton's line, however, hold like a stone The fast Lincoln backfield charged with unabated fury only to be rolled back by the determined "Seasiders." At one time the ball came within a few inches of the goal, but it availed nothing, as thampton soon kicked out of danger, when the ball came in her possession. Driving through Lincoln's line like a centimeter shell, Wood and Rigney soon had the ball within 15 yards of Lincoln's goal. Harvey attempted a drop-kick but was unsuccessful and the first half ended with no score. The second half began with Lincoln kicking to Hampton. Harvey received the ball and it back 20 yards. This play was followed by a couple of line punches by Wood for a gain of ten yards. Hampton was penalized again, but Rigney made up the loss by another line plunge for 10 yards. After attempting another forward pass, Hampton was forced to kick. Lincoln kicked again and Harvey ran the ball back 15 yards. Another pass was then made to Paxon. This netted 20 yards more for Hampton. With this encouragement the Hampton backfield marched steadily down the field until Rigney crossed Lincoln's line for a touchdown. The goal was kicked. This gave Hampton 7 points at the end of the end of the third quarter. Lincoln had made no score. The Lincolnites in the last marched began to realize that their last chance for a touchdown was gone, yet they fought on bravely to the end. Knowing that much of the future of both teams depended on this game each side fought hard, but the game was as clean as any that has been played on the Hampton Institute field.

The Baltimore School of Music "We treat you courteously and charge you reasonably" TELEPHONE, MT. VERNON 4030-J Washington, Nov. 19.—The Virginia Union University aggregation again broke her record and established herself as champion. The red and steel gave Howard the severest drubbing that she has ever experienced on her hold. The well oiled machine of the team was the most experienced team in every department of play. Howard kicked off to Union but the Unionites seemed to be a trifle slow getting started. Here Howard took advantage and put up her strongest fight of the game. On the fourth down Hucles punted which Howard returned forty yards and finally brought the ball to Union's thirty-five yard line and the home fires ceased to burn when Fisher's drop kick failed to go over. Union failed to gain on four downs and the ball went over; likewise Howard failed and the ball going to Union. "Tank" Woods began Union's terrible offensive move by going over right tackle for four yards then Hucles passed thirty-five yards to Taylor the speedy Gregory completed the march by skirting right end and running through a sea of would be tacklers for a touchdown. Hucles promptly kicked goal. Howard was unable to advance the ball he distance after the kickoff punted to Union. Waters and Young in their vain effort to tackle Hucles on the return collided. Young being knocked unconscious. The second quarter found the ovalon Union's forty yard line from which place Union essayed her second successful pass. On the fourth down Hucles punted and Howard failing to gain also punted. Gregory returned the kick twenty yards and constant plunges by the red and steel backs carried the ball to Howards five yard line but a penalty on Union brought the ball back and Hucles booted the piskigin between the uprights. In the second half Union seemed to grow stronger and refused to allow Howard to advance the ball out of her territory; forcing her to kick. Gregory received the kick and ran through the Howard combination for forty yards. The visitors failing to gain from here lost the ball but recovered it again when Taylor intercepted a pass from Pisher. Gregory made five yards but Uclues missed goal in the quarterback's possession but Howard grabbed the piskin on a pass from Uclues to Taylor and immediately punted the ball to Union's elusive little quarterback who sidestepped tackler after tackler and carried the ball thirty-five yards then constant drives by Johnson and Woods brought the final touchdown.

O Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Nov. 17 —The Tuskegee football team defeated the team from Talladega College in a stubbornly fought game here today. This gives the Old Goid and Crimson eleven undisputed claim to the team of football championship and colored South toward which she made a long stride when she displaced Moorehouse 19 to 6 last Saturday. Tuskegee started the game by kicking to Talladega who brought the ball back about 20 yards. Failing to gain the ball went over. Tuskegee made slight gains then tried a forward pass which was captured by Talladega. After a number of plays Talladega kicked to Tuskegee who lost the ball. The visitors failed to gain punted. Tuskegee worked the ball within five yards of Talladega's goal and Simons went through the line for a touchdown. Breshear sent the sphere over and the first quarter ended. Tuskegee 7, Talladega 0. Talladega received the kick-off and on their first play went through the line for 5 yards. On the next formation she hit the line for a gain. Blackus intercepted an aerial pass and carried the ball for twenty yards around right end. Tuskegee gained considerably and with the ball on the 20 yard line Blackus darted around left end, wrigled out of the grasp of a stalkworm tackle and shot to the hoop. In the second Tuskegee's ground and lust touchdown. Braucher sent the ball "over the top" for the one point. At the opening of the second half Talladega kicked and Tuskegee ran the ball back several yards. Talladega intercepted a forward pass and failing to make a gain kicked. Tuskegee fumbled and the visitors recovered the ball. Talladega then tried a kick from placement which was blocked. In the mix-up Talladega recovered the ball and carried it to Tuskegess's 3 yard line. This was the one threatening moment for Tuskegee and it looked as if the visitors would score but the Tiger's line stood like a wall and the leather went over. Tuskegee then kicked out of danger. In the last quarter Talladega tried a forward pass which was intercepted. At this instance Simms made a beautiful overhead pass to Brashear, who traveled 35 yards over the chalk line and received it. In the few remaining moments of play the visitors' line held tight and the game ended with the ball in Tuskegee's possession. Hend coach Gayle and assistant, Oscar Mitchem, were smowered with congratulations following the game. GOODWIN C. HUBBARD, B. Y. THURSELL Scour T. TRILOGY, T. TUSKEGEE, 14. BY R. D. SARNAK REF. F. S.

MORGAN TRIUMPHS OVER HIGH SCHOOL 18-0 Due, undoubtedly, to the strenuous efforts of Coach Booker, Morgan College eleven walloped the High School team at Oriole Park last Saturday by the score of 18-0. The Morganites refused to let the school boys have even a look-in. Although out weighed by nearly 15 pounds to the man the High School boys fought bravely to stem the tide of defeat that seemed sure to up the "nothing doing" sign and High School was compelled to bow low. Morgan received the kick and before the surprised High School had could get themselves together they had advanced the ball to within striking distance of the High School goal. Here Morgan was held only for a moment when Lane got down for the first touchdown. Receiving the kick High School could again and were compelled to kick. Morgan again began a march towards their opponent's goal, and on a forward pass, Lane to Hodge, scored the second touchdown. During the remainder of the half the ball see-sawed up and down the field, neither side being able to score. After receiving the kick in the second half, High School advanced slow and kicked, recovering the ball on Morgan's 30-yard line. Getting possession of the ball on Butler's kick, Morgan again advanced to mid-field just as time was called for the third quarter. The fourth quarter saw Morgan bucking the line and ripping wide gays in High School's defense. Advancing the ball to the High School 10-yard line. Anderson ran around the end for the third touchdown of the grape. JOHN A. BISHOP Funeral Director & Embalmer 1177 DRUID HILL AVE. C. # 1 Phone Mt. Vernon 854 Shaving Parlor ...

MILKRITH, Mumbai STATISTICS RATES PAYABLE IN ADVANCE These Months - - - Thirty cents Bir Months - - - Fifty cents One Year - - - One Dollar SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1927 MANUCHINUS TO WEST VIRGINIA The same Pentagon spirit that the state of Massachusetts mandated "before the war" in retaining to return fugitive shoals to their owners, once they had escaped into the free air of the North, still lives on. Last Thursday Governor McCall of Massachusetts denied extension to the state of West Virginia of a retired man because of "the grave danger" that the defendant might be convicted and sentenced to death for a crime of which he may not have been guilty. The Governor's action was taken at the advice of the Attorney General of the state. John Johnson the defendant, was released with success. The motion of the Massachusetts governor was not taken immediately. His special representative spent some time at the scene of the crime in Charleston. Here it was found that the assailants of which Johnson and several others are charged occurred last November in the East Light District. The special representative also reported that enraged accounts of the crime had been circulated in the city, and because of their nature and Johnson's order, these existed a prejudice "which would be difficult, if not impossible of mounted by the most typical indictor." The point upon which the decision of the Massachusetts governor zeals is already not the guilt or innocence of John Johnson. Neither the Governor nor his special representative amends this point except by interference. With Governor McCall the only question is whether or not Johnson would receive a fair trial if allowed to be taken back to West Virginia. In answering this question in the negative the Massachusetts executive acted after mature consideration of the facts had before him by his own investigation. The state of hand in West Virginia was found to be 1 much a nature that the law, and most zero minded judge and jurors would have been forced to contain and punish Johnson, regardless of his guilt or innocence. Neither than surmiser his prisoner to certain death, the Governor decided to set him free. It ought to be noted it is not the fear of male violence escaped in its ordinary channels of Junction by burning and hanging that gives the case its significance, but in the extraordinary channels of threatening and overlying judges and witnesses. Certainly the most executive of West Virginia hits the nail on the head when he says that the facial expression is a reflection on the state and country of West Virginia. However this is not the first time that angry people have must rebellious upon the method of meeting out justice in the courts of Southern states, wherever the same question is involved. If Governor McCarthy decision in this case is based on facts and it should not have been made otherwise, it calls attention away to the condition of the course in the fourth瑜伽 is bad but this same of organized瑜伽 is worse. Notice served so recently by the Supreme Court is served there again that there are fair-minded people, who believe that the main farmland town has rights to the most highest up has a right to respect. 26TH SOLDIERS DID NOT MUTINY 25TH SOLDIERS DID NOT MUTINY It is going to be very hard to convict the members of the 15th infantry that shot up Houston, of military and defense o the orders of their officers according to the recent testimony before the court marshal sitting at San Antonio, Texas. Evidence produced shows that the men were under the command of top Sergeant Henry, the ranking non-commissioned officer of Company 1. Under his orders, the men were provided with guns. They were told by him to save their ammunition and not to waste it and to fill their canteens with water. In military order they formed and marched and shot as soldiers and not as a crowd of men unused to discipline. Bergeman Henry did more than take only volunteers in his campaign of vengeance, the ordered everybody to fall in and threatened to return and shoot all who didn't. Of course the reports of the actions of the Houston police in their treatment of the troopers and the woman arrested did not make it necessary to order some of the men. They went gladly to their death wipe out the insults heaped upon them. The fact remains that they were commanded by their own active officer, who was on duty at the time, and therefore could not act in defiance of their officers. Whatever else Houston was, it was not a mutiny of men against officers, but of officers end men alike. CONFERENCE SAYS SALUTE The question of to salute or not to salute is still in the air, and the incident is told of a colored captain in the South who compelled respect for his office. When two white soldiers refused to salute, he took his coat off and hung it on a post, and with drawn revolver ordered the men to march past his coat and salute this evidence of his position. However, if force is to be resorted to n all occasions, it is clear that there will be some officers, who would prefer to dispense with it. From the South where the question is burning, General John E. Cattleman, former Confederate officer, and slave holder lets fall this bit of wisdom, "I would or I will, at any time, salute any officer superior or inferior, who salutes me, regardless of the color of his skin. We salute the rank not the individual." With this word from the Confederacy, it is not unlikely that the problem is considered severe. SEPARATE CARS NEXT A similar consideration of the whole text of the recent Supreme Court decision affecting segregation ordinances in cities makes it difficult to see how the court which killed segregation at the same time could give new life to the movement for separate schools and separate cars. How is it that according to the Supreme Court, State laws may tell colored citizens how they shall travel, but not where they shall live? If it is violation of their property rights to pass segregation ordinances, is it also a violation of their liberties as citizens to force them into separate cars? On this question, a former decision of the Supreme Court quoted by Mr. Justice Day in his own book throws some light. Speaking of the Court's interpretation of the 15th Amendment, it said: "It at the Fourteenth Amendment was designed to assure to the colored gree the enjoyment of all the civil rights that under the law are enjoyed by white persons, and to give to them the protection of the general government. In that enjoyment, whenever it should be denied by the States. It not only gave citizenship and privileges of citizenship to persons of color but it denied to any State the power to withhold from them the equal protection of the laws and national Congress to outweigh its provisions by appropriate legislation. . . . It ordains that no State shall make or enforce any laws written may require the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States. . . . It ordains that the State shall deprive any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. "What is this but denying that the laws in the States small the rights of all persons, whether colored or white, shall stand equal before the laws of the States, and in regard to the colored man, for whose protection the Amendment was primarily designed that no discrimination shall be made against them by law because of their status." "Fourteenth Amendment allows no intention to summarily the rights it designates to protect. It speaks in general terms and those are as comprehensive as possible. Its language is prohibitive; but every prohibition implies the existence of rights and immunities, presumption among which is an immunity from inequality of legal protection either for life, liberty, or property. Any State action which denies this immunity to a colored man is in conflict with the Constitution." Certainly separate cases "represent discrimination by law on account of color" and the same is true of separate schools. Ultimately the Supreme Court to be consistent must decide that forms of discrimination violate the spirit if not the letter of the 16th Amendment to the constitution. It is up to us to get behind the National Association for Colored People in the effort to bring before the Supreme Court some case that will settle the matter of discrimination forever. If we find no interest in this way, aside from any personal feeling, we well might sit down with our hands folded and let things take their course, but we are interested because we have our some, thousands and leaders in it. These boys should be looked after and made to feel that the folks at home still have an interest in them. Christmas is coming and they will look for some reminder from home, or from their friends at home. We must do our bit to make them feel that we have not forgotten them. Tobacco, cigars, pipes and many other things are very welcome to a soldier and we should see to it that they are supplied. We must not be seafish about this matter. We feed those and other agencies are looking after all the soldiers, and we should be generous enough to contribute to this general work. In making our contributions, they will possibly be small, and will not go very far, but the general fund will reach all and our nurses will help, so give what you can individually if you like, but, give something, so that all may be helped.

THE DIVINE POWER The Bible records the sayings of the wisest men of olden times through their Angel Guides who came to them in the sacred Spirit Power of God. All prophets were great Mediums, and the terms "words of God" "Man of God" Prophet, seer all means mediumship and refer to spirit messages. Abraham was a medium and Moses was a Medium acknowledged by the people, saying, Let God speak to Moses and you (Moses) speak to us and we will obey." Deborah was a Medium. (Judges 4:4-11) Balam was a Medium (Numbers 22:9-13, 23:4). God and Nathan were Mediums and regularly employed as such by King David. Jeremiah too, was employed by a King as a Medium (Jeremiah 37:17). His mediumship may be seen from 1:5-9. People expected him to go into trance, but he affirms that his psychic impressions are fully sufficient and that his prophecies are true. Isaiah was a Medium, read Isaiah 50:4. 5. Moses desired all come to become Mediums. Numbers 1:2-8. Kanaz was a Medium (Judges 3:9:10) Daniel was a great Medium 4:9 and So were Solomon and Samuel. John the Baptist, Paul and a host of other biblical wise men, they have developed and used the blessed Power of, Mediumship to commute with the Highest Angels and God for the benefit of humanity. A Medium is one who stands at the Divine Gateway of mortal and spirit life, who receives and delivers helpful messages between the unseen and seen world. Let Osman unfold your life to you.
