XXVI, No. 12 MORGAN CLOSEST OF ITS FIFTIET Bishop Earl Cranston, Governor of Education, Dr. I Dr. John F. Goucher Participated in FORMER STUDENTS AWARDS Earnest Work on Part of Citizen Generous Contributions From Fund for New Builds Than Sixty Thous Morgan College celebrated the fifteenth anniversary of its charter existence on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, the exercises ending at the Sharp Street Memorial Church Wednesday night, at which time Bishop Earl Cranston delivered the invocation and Governor Harrington and Dr. Philander P. Claxton, United States Commissioner of Education, were among the speakers. The beneficent influence which the institution has wielded upon the lives of more than five thousand students who have studied there, as well as the thousands with whom they have come in contact, was extolled by various speakers. The celebration began Tuesday afternoon with an automobile pilgrimage to the new site of the college at Hamilton. A big mass meeting was held in the evening at Metropolitan M. E. Church with Dr. James R. L. Diggs, presiding. The speakers were Dr. John F. Goucher, president of the Board of Trustees; Bishop William F. F. McDowell and Bishop Joseph F. Ferry. GOUCHER SKTECHES HISTORY Dr. Goucher sketched the history of one college from its chartering on November 27th, 1867, to the present. He gave a picture of the school when it was known as the Centenary Biblical Institute and held classes in churches, to its location on East Saratoga street, and thence to its present home on Fulton and Edmondson avenues about 36 years ago. He said that Morgan college had gone through the period of infancy, youth and early manhood and is now about to enter upon a riper period of usefulness with its prospective removal to its new location. The college, he said, had turned out nearly 1,000 teachers, 165 of its old students had entered the ministry, 25 had entered upon the practice of medicine and a number had become lawyers. The college had spent over $900,000, he said, and now owed abut $28,000. Bishop McDowell said that the college must not look too much upon what it had already accomplished, but must look ahead for the great work of the future. Bishop Berry declared that such institutions as Morgan College have to prove the superiority of the Christian education, and that their function is to turn out a high type of leaders. Mrs. William Pickens sang a solo, the College Glee Club rendered several selections and Rev. Dr. W. Sampson Broks, a former student, gave the invocation. Rev. Dr. I. L. Thomas, of the class of '$1, pronounced the benediction. DEGREEES CONFERRED The college chapel was crowded on Wednesday afternoon when greetings were received from various schools and colleges and a number of honorary degrees were conferred upon successful former students. It was the first time in the history f the college that honorary degrees were awarded. Among the representative of schools presenting greetings were: H. W. Thomas, Talladega College; H. T. McDonald, president of Storer College; W. Anthony Aery, Hampton Institute; Dr. James R. L. Diggs, Clayton Williams Academy and M. A. Hawkins Baltimore Colored High School. Telegrams and letters of greetings from several colleges were read. Dr. M. Bates Stephens, State Superintendent of Education, puid a tribute to the work that Morgan College had done. Dr. George F. Bragg also spoke. SPENCER AWARDS HONORS. The recipients of the degrees were clad in the regulation cap and gown, as was President John Oakley Spencer, who handed out the sheepskins.

MASTER OF ARTS THE GOVERNOR SPEAKS Dr. Ernest Lyon introduced Governor of Harrington at the concluding session of the celebration. The governor praised the work the college has done, declared that the colored people of Maryland should be given better school facilities, that the teacher should be better paid and that the Negro must be educated along all lines of endeavor. He is interested in everything, he said, that pertains to the uplift of the race—better homes, thrift and healthful surroundings. The best things, he concluded, were worth fighting for by all. Dr. Claxton reviewed the progress that the race has made along educational lines since emancipation. Asserting that the United States should have undertaken the education of the Negro at the end of the civil war, the race of the race along all lines. Properly trained teachers and leaders BALTIMORE SATURDAY. DEC. 1 1917 TEACHERS URGE BETTER SALARIES Attention of State Teachers Association Called to the Present Low Salaries in the Counties. MURPHY CHOSEN HEAD Largest Attendance of Teachers in the History of the Organization With the installation of officers for the ensuing year, the largest-attended session ever held by the Maryland State Colored Teachers' Association came to an end at the Pennsylvania Avenue A. M. E. Zion Church Wednesday afternoon. The sessions were attended by teachers from all pars of the State, county school boards and superintendents having co-operated in giving the teachers a holiday so that they might attend the sessions. The schools in and adjacent to Baltimore city held half-day sessions so that the teachers could attend the sessions. The opening session was held at the Pennsylvania Avenue Church, following a luncheon Monday afternoon. Addresses of welcome were delivered by Prof. Carrington L. Davis, vice principal of the Colored High School, and Dean William Pickens, of Morgan College. The responses were by Miss Charlotte Slowe, of Ceilh county, and Prof. Stephen H. Long, supervisor of colored schools in Worcester county. KELLY MILLER SPEAKS Prof. Kelly Miller, of Howard University, delivered a scholarly address on patriotism, holding the rapt attention of the teachers for more than an hour. Professor Miller praised the Negro as a loyal and first-class fighting man who would show the Kaiser that treaty... obligations are... worth more than the paper they are written upon. Mrs. Mary McLood Bethune, of Daytona, Fl., who has been appointed to organize Red Cross work among the colored people of Maryland, the District of Columbia, Virginia and West Virginia, also spoke. She said the Red Cross knew no color line and urged co-operation in its work. DR. CLAYTON MEAKS The teacher met at Bethel Church Monday night with the educational department of the colored section of the Maryland Defense Council. Among speakers were Dr. P. P. Claxton, United States Commissionor of Education, who declared that the present world war had given the American Negro the greatest opportunity of his career; Dr. Ernest Lyon, chairman of the colored section of the Defense Council, and James W. Chapman, president of the Baltimore School Board, who declared that the teacher should play a large part in the moulding of the next generation. Dr. M. Bates Stephens, State superintendent of education; Prof. J. N. Huffington, State supervisor of colored schools; Prof. Charles J. Koch, superintendent of city schools, and Prof. Mason A. Hawkins, who presided, delivered brief addresses. The invocation was by Rev. Dr. Harvey Johnson, the BOCER. BETTER SALTS In a ringing address, Mrs. Mary F. Wingstrom of Prince Georges county, urged better salaries for colored teachers in the counties Tuesday. She said that not only should every effort be made to improve the schools, but that the colored teachers are being paid very low salaries. Among those who took part in the discussion that followed were Rev. E. Q. Plummer, O. H. Bond, Miss Justin Wilkins, Mrs. Alice Freeland and Walter A. Washington. George P. McConey, president of the school board of Prince Georges county, declared that he was in favor of larger salaries for colored teachers. He urged, however, that the colored teachers secure the balance of salaries whites have prospective communities than have the legislature grant them the raise. He also asserted that some counties did not give colored schools the amounts appropriated by the State, diverting part to white schools. The colored people, he went on to say, should have this injustice remedied. After saying that the salaries paid colored teachers by some counties were the same as those of fifty years ago, he declared it to we his belief that vocational and industrial training should be the feature of educational plans for the Negro. Prof. W. J. Hollaway, State supervisor of white schools, in a witty and well received declaration that he inculcate the idea of promptness in their pupils should study the same themselves. He said he had no fear of the future of the colored people when given proper educational advantages. Prof. Garnett C. Wilkinson, principal of the Dunbar High School, Washington, told the value of the modern high school in giving the preliminary training for those who are to the preparations, college or other activities of life. Prof. Jesse L. Nicholas, principal of the Towson High School, told the need for high schools for colored boys and girls in the counties.

Coleman's Sensational Run of Nearly Fifty Yards is the Feature of the Game. Hampton, Nov. 29—Hampton defeated today her old rival Howard University. Over three thousand spectators witnessed the clash despite the drizzling rain which set in shortly after the game began. Howard kicked to Hampton. Riguly in less than ten minutes had crossed Howard's goal line for the first touch down. The Capitol City boys lost spirit, Hampton was allowed to score almost at will. Score at end of first half was Hampton nineteen Howard nothing. Coleman of Howard made a sensational run of nearly fifty yards. This was counteracted by a perfect pass from Riguly to Brooks netting a twenty-five yard gain. Clayborne and Hearne of Hampton caught passes for long gains. Howard fought desperately to avoid a white-wash. The game which was very hard was in Howard territory. Howard was outplayed in every phase of the game. Coleman of Howard did excellent work. The whole Hampton team played this final game of the season better than any other. The deadly tackling of Somerville, the end playing of Paxton and Brooks and the work of the entire backfield all were faster than ever before. The line up: Hampton.

They got together and arranged a program that will in some measure do honor to the man who has worked Indefatigably for the spread of Y. M. C. A. work among the colored men of this country, and who has led successful campaigns in a number of cities for association buildings costing $100,000 or more.

PYTHIANS DEDICATE HALL Washington, November 30.—With impressive services the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias dedicated their hall at 12th and U streets northwest Thanksgiving Day. The property was formerly the local headquarters of the True Reformers. A street parade preceded the exercises. A number of the Maryland Uniform Rank, under command of Lewis E. Williams, of Baltimore, were in line. CAMP MEADE CELEBRATES FIRST THANKSGIVING DAY Holiday Marks the First Opportunity For Many To Visit Their Homes Since Entering Camp.—Those Who Remain Feast Upon Generous Helpings of Turkey And Other Delicious Edibles. BOYS HAVE GREAT BIG TIME THE ENTIRE WEEK. Generous Baltimorean Sends 1000 Cigarettes and 100 Cigars For 14th District Boys.—Bandmaster Johnson Arrives. "Possum" Mascot.—Baltimoreans Win in Competitive Drill. Camp Meade, Nov. 30—With Thanksgiving, the first snow of their camp life, as well as the first visit home for many, the soldiers in training here hda a strenuous time of it this week. When the boys awoke Wednesday to find the whole camp covered with a nice, clean coat of white snow, they immediately proceeded, with the aid of their heavy hob-nailed boots, to mix it up with the oddles of sand around the place with the result that by the time the reporter arrived in the afternoon the camp was one big area of slush. The man who wrote about "snow, snow, beautiful snow" had evidently never been to a place like Camp Meade. The slush was wonderful. It clung to the bottom of your shoes with a tenacity that was uncanny and oozed up your pantsleg like a creeping sore. But slush, snow, nor anything else could dampen the ardour of the hundreds of soldiers as they marched to the train shed on their first "leave" since entering the camp. They sang and laughed as they marched, and joshed the fellows who had to stay and "keep house." When all of the boys who were allowed leave had departed, the camp was indeed a desolate and deserted looking place. The men for the most part kept close about the big stoves, played cards and cracked jokes. The Y. M. C. A. buildings also had their full quota where the piano and graphophone worked overtime, running the gamut from the latest "Blues" to "Brighten the Corner Where You Are". But those who had to stay at camp were not forgotten. All Wednesday the supply sergeants were kept busy getting in big loads of turkey and other things equally as good if not as desirable. Each soldier was allowed about nineteen ounces of the national Thanksgiving bird as well as cranberry jelly and their good things. In a number of the quarters the men "chipped in" to make the Thanksgiving dinner a truly sumptuous affair. Ice cream, tomato salad, oranges, apples, good cigars and cigarettes and other things not on the Army bill of fare were brought by the men. BALTIMORE BOYS GET SMOKES The Baltimore boys, especially those of the 14th district, will always have a warm welcome for Mr. Perry Wilson, of 2003 Division street, who when he visited camp Sunday brought along one thousand cigarettes and one hundred cigars. This came as a most pleasant surprise as many of the boys not yet having received a pay, were rather bad off for smokes. Albert Babb, who is one of the agents of the Afro at camp, says the boys await the coming of the paper just the same as they do a letter from home. BANDMASTER ARRIVES Musical circles in the camp took on increased interest with the arrival of Bandmaster A. J. Johnson, to whom has been assigned the task of organizing the infantry band. Mr. Johnson is no slouch at the game having been bandmaster of the famous 9th Cavalry Band since 1809. He is a graduate of the New York Conservatory and a pupil of both Walter Damrosch and his brother. The Government makes provision for 28 pieces in the band and requisitions have already been sent in for these instruments. But Bandmaster Johnson wishes to augment his organization by the addition of twelve extra pieces. To that end he has secured the cooperation of Dr. Cabinass, one of the "Y" secretaries here and an attempt will be made to raise funds sufficient to purchase the instruments. First Sergeant Widgeon, of Philadelphia, anther of the Afro's progressive agents, has been transferred to the band and is tooting his horn even before the instruments arrive. TO LEAVE SOON FOR FRANCE Rev. Charles Boyson, of Philadelphia, formerly vicar of St. Phillips Episcopal Church, Indianapolis, Ind., is here making observations of the Y. M. C. A. work. Within a few weeks he will leave for France to take up Association work among the soldiers there. Y. M. C. A. ACTIVITIES. W. C.

A B-39, has just completed a short but busy football season and is now arranging an auspicious basket ball season. He has already commenced arrangements for games with Howard University, Lincoln, Vandals, Hampton and maybe Morgan College. The boys will not want for trainers. Besides a number of former stars among the drafted men there is Bullock, former all American end, of Dartmouth and B.R. Church, one of Spalding's official refreshes, who are connected with the Y here and will help to round the boys in shape. Richard Scott and A. S. Helm are the other secretaries at this association. NOT MANY ILLITERATES So much has been said of the illiteracy of the men here that the question was asked of M. B. McAlden, religious secretary at D 39 and he prepared the following statement for the Afro-American. "The report is current in some localities that of the 6000 Negroes here at Camp Meade, more than 4000 are unable to read and write. I am taking this means to say upon good authority that any such statement is erroneous. For after a careful census of each company by the several captains, it was found out that out of the 6003 men here only 395 were unable to write. Lieutenant E. A. Love in cooperation with our educational secretary, Mr. E. A. Wallace has worker out a very efficient program of study whereby they hope to have every fellow here now reading and writing within the next few months. This much is true, that many of the men who write, may be lacking in expert handwriting, however, they write well enough for their relatives and friends to get their letters and they in turn receive answers from the same. If any one is so credulous as to doubt this statement let him spend a day in our Y. M. C. A., stand back of our desk and issue paper for a day, then we are sure he would decide that all of the fellows could write, and does write to folks back home. Each day we issue enough for from 1800 to 3000 letters in our "Y." alone." MAJOR TROXEL BURIED Major Orlando C. Troxell, Second Battalion of the 368 Infantry, was buried in Washington. Major Troxel was formerly connected with the 10th Cavalry, and at the request of his widow the following men formerly connected with the 10th Cavalry but recently officers at Camp Des Moines were selected as pall bearers: Captain Peeks Captain Marchbanks, Captain Queen, Captain Sewell, Captain Malone and Lieutenant Bettis. POSSUM IN CAMP. Some of the men caught an opossum in the woods the other day and he has been officially assigned to "mascot" duty. He amused a large number of visitors Sunday and according to his keeper has already learned two commands: "squids right" and "as you were." The keeper also remarked that by the time the men had received their uniforms Uncle Sam might be induced to make up a suit for "Billy" Possum, who was surely going to France. Among the Baltimore men who have received promotion recently are Herman Parr, bugler; Nathaniel Hall, store clerk; William A. Levi, store clerk; Grant Biddle, supply sergeant and Clarence Colbert, mess sergeant. BALTIMORE BOYS VICTORIOUS. Battery of the 351st Regiment of Field Artillery were victorious over the headquarters company in a competitive drill on Tuesday. The men were highly complimented by Colonel Cole. The members of Battery D are: Albert Babb, Archie Ford, Robert A. Wallace, Albert L. Cassell, Merriman Wilson, William J. Duvall, Frank W. Wright, Harry Griggs, Marshall Milburn, Amos Brooks, Dewitt Lee, Roscoe Palmer, D. C. Lee, Edward Wallace, Ericson Brown, John B. Smith, Clarence A. Johnson, Roger Russ, J. T. Lyers, James W. Spriggs, John D. Wilson, Morris Jackson, Thomas Nelson, Harry Tucker, Jerome Curry, Robert Burke, Cornelius Tinsley, Wade Hampton Gist, Ellijah B. Curry, Jos. Price, George Butcher and Robert Tatum. The boys of Company K were made glad this week when they behold a victoria in their headquarters, the gift of Mr. William Anderson, principal of one of the Baltimore public schools. THE AFEO-AKEEKAN SATUEDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1917 . Woman's Column.. SOLVER EAT In these days, when every one is talking, reading, writing or working for our own family in the greatness or the communalism, it is always the uppermost than in our family, which I do for him or herself.

Please bear in mind to such good effort, than he has taken a half of a barrel, painted in white, then examined it and had a top timed in with a slide for corn and a hook for bells. And has printed in black letters two bison heads, "Horns for the soldier bogs." Do your bit. Corn arms or no arms." When asked why he adopted that method of getting money for smokes, he said of folks who to grow because they can only give a little and they don't want every one to know what they give. He they can draw their bit in this half barrel and no one need know whether it was a penny or a dollar. Another suggestion, a certain number of a big whisk club, entertained the circle as an afternoon affair. "Every member was privileged to invite one or more guests to play "writes," on condition that they would draw a half dollar each into a Red Cross box, compromisely in the house of the Housewife. Homewives between fifty and 150 were afterwards turned into the Red Cross." The housewife was made a cake and chocolate. As an fellow smoker, a mini-miner than I know if I think we get the pink of the things we want to the containers you are made to make. One day last week there was brought into camp a composition of marmalate from the Red Cross, as the same a set of colored daffees arrived and every man smoked them received a sweeter, there was only three lays over no choice, no pick. The Red Cross knows no color, no race, no creed. Only that we are soldier boys fighting for democracy. So help the Red Cross do their bits. Two deserving organizations. Let it be small or large, do what you can, they ask no more, when you help either you help the helpers here Why even the kiddies are doing their part. The school children of one school conceived the idea of sending delicaties to two of the cantonments for all the soldier boys from their town a whole company and then some. So each kiddie took glasses of jello, jams, jars of pickles, preserves, bottles of sauces, and canes of home grown or bought garden trunk, and some made old fashioned taffy and chocolate and maple fudge and cookies and all kinds of sweet and good things and packed two immense boxes and altho it only takes a week at the meet to reach any of the cantonments, they were real sure the soldier boys would get their boxes for Kmas, because they shipped them last week. A set of high school boys have pledged themselves to raise 110 each by work until the first of April. The supervising principle has opened an employment bureau for them and anyone who wants a boy for a job such as window cleaning, carpet beating, errands, type writing, or copying, in fact anything a boy can do after school hours to earn a little money, need only phone, write, or call at the office and a boy will be sent, and will make his own terrise. And the roosy will be for the Y. M. C. A. and Bad Scorn—Fifty. Fifty. Let us help the Soldier Boy who is going to help to settle the Kaiser.

MURPHY, Manager SUBSCRIPTION RATES PAYABLE IN ADVANCE Three Months - - - Ferty cents Six Months - - - Fifty Cents One Year - - - One Dollar SATURDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1917 In the recent campaign for a Y. M. C. A. Fund to help the men in the trenches, colored schools and colleges raised $10,000. Of this amount Hampton and Union University students each subscribed $1,000 each. Here is a worthy example of the kind of co-operation in our higher schools which might profitably go beyond subscribing to funds for war purposes. In standardizing their courses, their entrance requirements, athletic activities, and their degrees conferred, there is room for the higher schools to get together. Two white soldiers in Augusta, Ga., who did not have enough money to enjoy their leave, decided to hold up two colored wmen and get the wherewithall. One of them got $2 and the other two bullets in the chest. His death statement was that he had been held up by a jitney driver, but his thoroly frightened comrade made a full confession and is now awaiting trial at the military guard house. The women have not been apprehended. Evidently some folk in the South are waking up. "BILLY" SUNDAY ON MIGRATION The South is the place for the colored man just as Alnska is the place for the Eskimo. It is as naturally the home of the colored people as it is the home of cotton. This is the gist of the remarks of our old friend "Billy" Sunday before an Atlanta, Georgia, audience recently. Of course, "down there" segregation was invoked, and the colored folks were granted a meeting all to themselves—the thing that Sunday wanted to do in Baltimore, but which he was prevented from carrying out by the energetic protest of local clergymen. The South did not need to wait for "Billy" Sunday to give them that "stay down here, we are your best friends" advice. This advice is shop worn and could hardly receive any new emphasis even from the bass-ball evangelist. In spite of the years of accumulated advice latest reports show from 600,000 to 800,000 Southern colored folk in Northern cities as the result of the movement of the last few years. Only the 1920 census will give the correct total of the folk, who came North to get rid of their "best friends." Newark, N.J. had a population of 3,500 in 1010. This year the number has grown to 20,000 in round numbers. Reports from E. St. Louis show that workmen are still being imported there at higher wages than the South can offer. So it goes. The migration of the Southerners to the North has not ceased, on the other it is going on continuously, not thousands as in the summer the constant trickle that A year ago organized labor considered with favor the sending of white organizers into the South because the migration threatened to lower the standard of the white laborer. This year they have actually approved the opening of the doors of the unions to colored workers, and have the additional step of throwing a colored organizer into the railroad field. Such an appointment of a single organizer in a limited field cannot said to be a great step forward, yet enthusiastic colored laborers see in this beginning, the important step toward the unionization of colored workers in all lines. Just as long as the colored worker is outside the union, he is going to be the strike-breaker, and the thorn in the side of union labor. Just so long too, will organized capital discriminate against him as it did only recently, when the Southeastern group of railroads increased the wages of white helpers by 8 and 12 per cent and the colored helpers by only 4 per cent. With the colored laborer inside the union, both he and the union are the gainers, and only organized capital is the loser. American laborers are the highest paid in the world. The opening of the unions to colored workers means that they are going to enter this high class of paid workmen. FIRST MONTH AT CAMP MEADE OVER If at no other time, it paid to be a conscript at Camp Meade on Thanksgiving day. Ham and eggs for breakfast, turkey and dressing, plum pudding and pumpkin pie for dinner, and oyster stew with mince pie coming after for supper. Besides the wonderful things to eat last Thursday was open day at the camp and entertainments followed by informal dances were the rule. Altogether the boys who stayed at Camp Meade had as much entertainment as those who were lucky enough to get passes to go home. In the more serious work at hand, Camp Meade colored boys are rounding out their first quarter of the 11 weeks training. Their government furnished overalls will soon give way to regulation uniforms and then the men give up broomstick drilling for work with a real gun. So far they have mastered much of the closed order work with ease, the harder work of bombing, signalling and bayonet exercise is yet before them. Unless all signs fail this work will be lead a strenuous time of it this week, first stages. A great number of the drafted men at the camp according to a report are illiterate and unable to write letters back home to their families. The Y. M. C. A. has sent out a call to interested young people in the effort to procure volunteers to go to the camp and write letters for the boys. The Y. M. C. A. is preparing to defray the expenses of persons willing to undertake such volunteer work. It is to the shame of our national government that so large a number of citizens are without common school education. The 50 per cent efficient schools in Maryland and in the South have in this crisis put at the service of the country and army only 50 per cent literate. It is to the credit of the government that plans are under consideration to establish educational classes in every cantonment and to have everybody reading and writing by Easter. Germany has had compulsory school training for nearly 300 years, and the success of her armies as well as of her civilization is said to be due largely to the fact that her individual citizens are intelligent. However late, our own government is now waking up to the fact that our own soldiers must be as intelligent as those we fight against, in order to win. In our training of soldiers before the present war, it was felt in America that man power would win any war. The advent of the aeroplane, and submarine in these last years makes that man power without brain mortorthless. Up until last month the general Eyng's men drove them to Denberg line, the men were the only men to break thru they had the man after they that they skilled to power, there, their they were anything man is going to school—a better thing for ANNIVERSARY and Mrs. Plummer W. congratulated their fifteenth anniversary Wednesday. Be- came congratulations from a number of friends, they were the most many handsome and Continued from Page 1 eral review of the work that the association has done since its reorganization. He told of the fight for better salaries and of the successful campaign for a minimum school year for colored county school. He said that teachers all over the State are becoming intertwined in the work of the association which was evidenced by more than 300 new members joining during the session. URGES BETTER FACILITIES One of the best received addresses of the session was that of Prof. J. W. Huffington, State supervisor of colored schools, Wednesday morning. He said that he only took the position of supervisor because he believed there was a big field to work for the improvement of colored schools in the cities. The race to men to say, "I'm a colonial facilities so that men and women would be produced who were a civic and economic asset to the community. Taking up the question of adequate financial support of the colored county schools, he said that in some sections of the state a few whites were opposed to the colored schools receiving support. He said that taxing the people for public education should mean that there would be no discrimination when the funds were distributed. He praised the colored people of Somerset county for their interest in schools of their public spirit in making of their means that schools may be maintained and school houses built. Taking up the need for county high schools, he said the colored people should see that their children stayed in school longer so that the way would be paved for the establishment of high schools in conformity with the State law. When these high schools came, he said, the curriculum of the State Normal Schol at Bowie could be raised. He mentioned the fact that the Jeanes and Slater Educational funds had granted $1,000 for the establishment of two teacher-training schools—one of which would be located in Southern Maryland and the other on the Eastern Shore. State Superintendent Stephens, in the course of an address, told the teachers that he was with them in the fight for better salaries. Prof. T. H. Kiah, of Princess Anne Academy, Henry I. Lowers and Geo. B. Murphy, the retiring chairman of the executive committee, were among the speaker. The last named speaker detailed the various activities of the association since its reorganization a few years ago. The teachers adopted a series. of resolutions urging higher salaries, better schools and a deeper interest in education. NEW PRESIDENT ELECTED The election of officers looked at one time as if it would be a lively affair, when two candidates for the presidency were placed in nomination. Jesse L. Nicholas, of Baltimore county placed in nomination George B. Murphy, principal of the Robert Brown Elliott School, at Carey and School streets, recounting the latter's activities in upbuilding the association. H. M. Gross placed President Goodloe in renomination. The rivalry of the friends of the two candidates and affiliations of the methods of electing officers caused things to be tied up for a while. At length it was agreed that a ballot should be cast for the choice of the teachers. When the votes were counted Murphy had 132 votes and Goodloe 64. Other officers elected were as follows: Phineas E. Gordy, Salisbury, first vice president; James F. Armstrong, Seat Pleasant, second vice president; J. Wesley Bruner, Frederick, third vice president; Jesse L. Nicholas, Govans, secretary; and Henry Lowers, Sparrows Point, treasurer. MORGAN GLOSES CELEBRATION OF 50TH ANNIVERSARY Continued from Page 1 are an urgent need of the race, he said, as well as highly trained ministers, lawyers and physicians. $10,000 RAISED The citizen's committee headed by Truly Hatchett, reported having raised $1,743.32 for the college. This was augmented by gifts of $1,000 each from Henry S. Dulaney and Summerfield Baldwin, 10.022 from the estate of the late Dr. David H. Carroll, collections of $4,911.76 in the Washington M. E. Conference and $1094.32 from the Delaware M. E. Conference, making a total of over $11,000. This sum, with $50,000 given by the whites will aid the college in moving to its new site. Morgan College has had but four presidents—the late J. Emory Round, the late William Freysinger, the late Francis J. Wagner and Dr. J. O. Spencer, the present Dr. C. E. Young the dean emeritus, has taught in the college for years. Dr. William Pickens is the present dean. The Princess Anne Academy and the Virginia College and Industrial Institute, at Petersburg, are branches. The institution is under the control of the Freedom's Aid Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church. TEACHERS TO GET RAISE Among the appropriations that the Board of Estimates has made for the 191$ budget are: Increases of $100 each in the salaries of fifteen teachers in the Colored High School; increases of $50 each for thirteen teachers in the same school; $6,000 for securing additional playground space for the Hill street school, and $130,000 for a new building to relieve the congestion at the Carey street school. The colored schools will share in the $300 allotted for the annual field day exercises and the elementary teachers will share alike with the whites in salary increases. CARD OF THANKS Mr. John R. Goldsbourough wishes to thank his many friends for the many kindnesses received at the death of his wife, Mrs. J. R. Goldsbourough. 'HIGH COST' AND SNOW FAIL TO DAMPEN THANKSGIVING SPIRIT The high cost of turkey and rabbits did not dampen the spirits of the folks on Thanksgiving Day, for good repasts were the feature of the day. Services were held in nearly all of the churches, and a number gave suppers at night. The services at First Colored Baptist Church took on a military aspect Thursday night, a pennant being unfurled for the young men of the church who have been drafted. The draftees so far include Roy Lewis, J. H. Mitchell, Herman Allen and J. Jackson. Additional stars will be placed in the pennant as more men from the church are summoned to the colors. Mrs. P. C.

FINE BILL AT THE CAREY The Thanksgiving offering at the Carey Theatre was one of the best ever shown at a moving picture theatre in this city. Ordinaryrity either Charlie Chaplin or Mary Pickford is enough feature to warm the heart of any theatre goer, but when both of these two super-stars of filmland appear the same time, the result is an offering of par excellence. This is what happened Thanksgiving and the kids who literally swarmed into the theatre from two until ten as well as the grown-ups held their sides and just laughed until the tears came while the inimitable Charlie wielded his mighty stick upon all who came in his way. Mary Pickford as 'Cinderella' brought back memories of nursery days and the youngsters showed by their applause that they remembered the oft-told and never old story of the winsome little girl and the ugly half-sisters. In conjunctin with this Manager Cremens also had "Damaged Goods" a stirring drama of present day life. This was for men only and at both the matinee and midnight performances standing room was at a premium. We would suggest that more of such plays as "Cinderella" be given at the various theatres for the benefit of the children who attend instead of some of the often suggestive and even vulgar pictures that have appeared all too frequent. MRS. MARY C. DUCKETT The funeral of Mrs. Mary C. Duckett, wife of Mr. Frank B. Duckett, of Catonsville. Md., took place at Grace A. M. E. Church, on Tuesday, November 27, of which church she had been a member for many years. Rev. D. G. Hill officiated, assisted by Rev. C. H. Murray, Interment in Western Star Cemetery, Catonsville. Mrs. Duckett died at her home on Taylor's avenue on Sunday, November 25, after a long illness. Her husband, nine children, six sisters, two brothers and a host of other relatives survive. SMYRNA Smyrna, Del., Nov. 28.—Sunday was go-to-church day and a good attendance was at Centennial. It being balance day a good collection was taken.

The steel line was impenetrable while "Tank" Woods repentedly took through the orange and blue line for long gains. It was simply too much Gregory; the fast little Union halfback being here there and everywhere (destopping, wriggling, and swimming through every available opening. Union kicked off the Normalites who, finding themselves unable to move the strong Union line, kicked. Here the Unionites by continuous drives carried the ball to the twenty yard line from which place Gregory on a fake play, circled end and scored the first touchdown of the game but Hucles missed the goal. During the entire game both skis sunk continually and in this quarter Union received the ball on a fumble and by frequent line plunges carried the oval to the ten yard line where "Monk" Gregory broke through for the second touchdown. Hucles kicked goal. The second half round both squads played better ball. The visitors received the kick and straightway marched up the field and scored their third touchdown when Hucles went through the line and promptly kicked goal. The orange and blue boys were unable to move on their receive and lost the ball when Taylor, the season's best end intercepted a pass. The red and steel boys lost the bin bid. N. I. failed miserably in an attempt to punt which Hucles returned to the three yard line and Johnson carried the ball. Hucles kicked goal. His quarter Hucles displayed a beautiful piece of broken field running by receiving a punt and running through the entire Petersburg line for a touchdown only to be brought back on a penalty. From midfield a pass to Smith and Gregory's thirty-five yard run placed the pigskin over. Union has undoubted the best team of the season and are the undisputed champions of 1917. Much credit is due Coach Robinson for the efficient manner in which he has handled his champion aggregation. Union V. N. I. I. Taylor L. E. Woods Baylor L. T. Melton Slade L. G. Boland Waller C.

ROBESON AGAIN STARS In the game last Saturday between Rutgers and Newport Reserves, the later team composed of all-stars of the gridiron, the work of Robeson, the big cloired end for Rutgers, was again the marvel and admiration of the entire game. The brilliancy of his execution and the alertness of his brain were part and parcel of the formations of Rutgers, and in a great measure responsible for the excellent showing made by his team. The majority of the big white football critics give great credit to Robeson in their write-ups of the games in which he has played, and it seems to be the concessus of opinion among them that he will take rank with the brightest and best players of the year. HOWARD LOSES 7-0. The recent change in the coaching staff of Howard's football eleven did not prevent them from receiving a good trouncing from the hands of the absence of Captain Pinder-hughes, who has been bared from playing with the team because of professional connections, greatly disheartened the rest of the men, and their lack of training combined to make them put up one of the worst games of the year. It is understood on good authority that a desperate effort will be made to win the Howard-Hampton game, however, basing the opinion on the ability of Coach Ernest Marshall, who has succeeded Mr. Beckett, to turn the trick for them. Nevertheless many are of the opinion that the damage to the team, is beyond repair, and that Hampton should have little difficulty in winning. HIGH SCHOOL LOSES The fast eleven of the Dunbar High School of Washington defeated the team from the High School of this city last week in Washington by a score of 20 to 0. The Washingtonians showed clean superiority over the local lads, and kept the ball in the latter's territory most of the time. STORER COLLEGE NOTES STORER COLLEGE NOTES Harpers Ferry, W. Va., Nov. 30.—This has been an off week fr the college foot ball squad. It was expected that the annual foot ball classic with Armstrong would be played in Washington this week, but the "Techs" have had no end of trouble in securing a park on which to play and the result has been no game. It is expected that the squad will make up for lost time, as they have two games on their hands to play this week, one for the scrubs, Thanksgiving Day with the Chambersburg Pa., Athletic Club and the big game or the year—Morgan at Baltimore the day following. Mrs. Elizabeth Anderson, president of the N. D., state W. C. T. U. is calling on her girlhood friend, Miss Benedict, of the college faculty. Mrs. Tansell, of Alexandria, Va., has been spending a few days visiting her friends, Mr. and Mrs. Lovett, proprietors of the Hill Top House. Sunday morning she attended Sabbath School at the College Church and gave a stirring address before the assembly. President H. T. McDonald left Wednesday to attend the semi centennial exercises of Morgan College, Baltimore. The shipbuilders have been after Prof. Thornton, manual training teacher, to report at the government shipbuilding plant to assist the government in its ship building plans. He is seriously considering the offer and the college may grant him leave of absence to thus do his bit. Plans are being made to install water in the college building known to the old students as The Morrell House, and to later generations as Sparrows Inn.

Washington, D. C., Nov. 29.—Brigadier General C. C. Ballou, who had charge of the Reserve Officers' Training Camp at Fort Des Moines, Iowa, has been designated to command the 92nd Division, to be made up of thirty thousand colored fighting troops. General Ballou was chiefly responsible for the military training of the 1250 colored officers who attended the training camp at Fort Des Moines, nearly 700 of whom up to this date have received commissions in the United States Army, including quite a number who have been commissioned since the closing of the training camp on October 15, 1917. General Ballou was at the War Department this week, for conference with officers of the General Staff, and with Mr. Emmitt J. Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War, who is advising the War Department in matters relating to the colored troops in the National Army, and with regard to the interests of the colored people of the United States generally. It is announced by the War Department that, included in General Ballou's staff, are to be three Brigadier Generals who will commend the one artillery and two infantry brigades. In the largest measure possible, General Ballou enjoys the respect and confidence of the men whom he trained as officers, at Fort Des Moines, and his sympathetic attitude toward colored soldiers in general, together with his splendid ability as a commanding officer, make his selection as commanding officer of the 92nd Division an ideal one. The complete staff of the 92nd Division follows: Commanders of Infantry brigades, Brig. Gen. M. H. Barnum and Brig. Gen. W. H. Ray; Artillery brigade commander, Brig. Gen. J. E. McMahon. Adjutants to brigade commanders, Majors Edmund A. Buchanan and Herman S. Dilworth, infantry, and Harvey D. Hisley, artillery. Chief of staff, Lieut. Col. Allen J. Greer; assistant chief of staff, Major E. F. Graham; adjutant general, Major Sherburne Whipple; inspector general, Major Robert P. Harbold; division surgeon, Lieut. Col. Perry L. Boyer; assistant to division surgeon, Capt. Herman Nicoll; sanitary inspector, Major Jonas S. White; signal officer, Major T. C. Spencer; commanding officer, headquarters troops, Capt. E. B. Turgeon. There still remains to be appointed to the staff a judge advocate, an ordinance officer, and a quartermaster; also one colored chaplain for each of the five regiments not already provided with chaplains, there being eight regiments which will compose the 92nd Division, and the three chaplains thus far appointed being Rev. A. E. Rankin, 349 F. A; Rev. E. A. Love, 368th Inf.; and Rev. E. O. Woolfolk, 351 F. A. Colored officers with the rank of captains and first and second lieutenants will be company commanders in all branches of the division. It will be noted that every branch of army service is to be represented in the 92nd Division of colored troops, and it goes without saying that this large fighting unit will uphold the honored traditions of colored soldiers who have famously and gallantly fought in every war that has ever been prosecuted by our great and invincible Republic.

Your Skin Can "Feel It Heal" Rev. Dr. Faulconer, 1821 St. Paul street, says: "Noxzema surpasses anything I have ever used for burns and any irritation of the flesh." Noxzema Skin Cream is a new discovery for skin troubles; It's not greasy and many people declare it has curred them of the worst forms of eczema, and ladies tell us it keeps their hands free from chaps and roughness. Noxzema is sold at most drug and department stores in 25c and 50c and $1.00 sizes. A postal will bring you a Noxzema paint book for children. NOXZEMA CHEMICAL CO., 1817 North Charles St., Baltimore, Md. Ad. The bible records the sayings of the wisest men of the church through their Gides who came to them the sacred Spirit Power of God. All prophets were great Mediums, and the terms "words of God" "Man of God" Prophet, seall 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 say (Moses) speak to us and we will obey. Deborah was a Medium, (Judges 4:4-11) Balaam was a Medium (Numbers 22:9-18, 23:4-4). Gad 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. Isaias was a good Medium, read Isaiah 50:4. 5. Moses desired people to become Mediums. Isaias 11:29. Kanaz was a Medium (Judges 8:9-10). Daniel was a great Medium and David 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 commune 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.

C., November 29.—A drop in the thermometer and a touch of winter characterized Anacostia last Sunday. Slight falling off was noticeable at the morning service at Campbell Church, notwithstanding the preacher, Rev. G. W. Lucas was at his best. At 3.30 P. M. a large number of Tents assembled at the church, the occasion being the Fiftieth Anniversary of their organization. The pastor, Rev. Geo. H. West, being unable to deliver the sermon, Rev. W. H.
