Missouri Man Fools Democrats
Walthall Moore, Whose Election Was Contested, Found To Own A Lot With 4 ft. Front
Election Officials Rule That His Eligibility Cannot Be
St. Louis, Mo. Dec. 2.—Waltham M. Moore, of 3035 Pine street, the only colored man elected to the Missouri Legislature recently, was found to have qualified for office by the purchase last September of a "politician's lot" in Carondelet. The lot has a frontage of four feet.
To comply with the law requiring that an office holder must be a taxpayer, he paid four years' back taxes on the lot, amounting to $4.35.
After a search of records in the Collector's office had failed to show that Moore had paid any taxes in his own name, Democrats were planning to contest his election, and it was said this morning that John Keogan, white, a Democrat, who received the next highest vote in the Sixth Legislative District, would institute the contest on the ground of Moore's supposed incitability.
Election Commissioners have ruled that Moore will be seated and his eligibility cannot be questioned. Mr. Moore is 38 years old and was born in Alabama. He, attended Howard University, later worked in the Louis Postoffice, and is now a writer in one of the downtown clubs.

Late John Reed Urged Them To Work For Political And Social Equality Of All

Describing the position of the Negro in the United States, especially in the Southern States, as "terrible" Reed declared the Negro offered a two-fold opportunity to the spread of communism in this country, first, a strong race and social movement, and second, a strong professionalism that steadily increased among the Negroes, he said, "a certain section of whom are now carrying on a propaganda in favor of armed revolt against the whites" and socialistic ideas are rapidly developing among the blacks employed in industrial establishments.
equality, which is developing so rapidly at the present time among the Negro masses." Reed told the meeting, "Communists must avail themselves of this movement in order to prove the emptiness of bourgeois equality and the necessity for a social revolution, not only to liberate all laborers from slavery, but also to bring the only effective means of liberating the oppressed Negro people."

Dr. Robt. W. Brown, physician, and president of the National Benefit Insurance Company was shot to death shortly after eight o'clock Saturday night in the doorway of his home, 1737 Eleventh street. The murderer escaped and has not been apprehended.

Dr. Brown expired in his hallway and Dr. J. D. Jackson of Norfolk, Virginia, attempted to pursue the murderer and was also fired upon. Dr. Brown, who was president of the National Insurance Company, was reputed to be worth in the neighborhood of half million dollars. He lived with his two daughters, Misses Roberta and Perle.

"The Open Door" Shows Rise Of Negro Race Plays
To Crowd At Symphony Hall
MAY COME HERE
Pageant Is Being Staged In Large Cities For Benefit Of Atlanta University
Boston, Mass., Dec. 2—Symphony Hall was crowded to the doors, mostly presentation of "The Open Door", a with white last week to witness the pageant showing the rise of the North race from its origin to freedom. The pageant was written by Mrs. Alice Ware, wife of the president of Atlanta, Ga., University and is modeled on the famous, Pageant of Dr. W. E. B. DuBois.
Every one of the hundreds of performers and members of a big chorus had some African blood in their veins though many of them were as white as two-thirds of the Caucasian portion of cit audience.
It is a worthy tribute to report that never has a pageage been given in Boston which evinced more artistic taste in its theme or stage settings or which was interpreted by performers showing a greater amount of appreciation of the true spirit of the production and the ability to appeal more deeply to the hearts of the audience.
The negrent was preceded by 45 minutes of admirable singing of sacred Negro melodies by a mixed chorus of nearly 100 voices led by E. H. S. Leatner, Ernest Harger, organist, and Burbana F. Grimes, pianist. Practically every choral number would have been enraged but not illfitted thus precluded.
The entire pageant and appropriate interpretive music played by a colored orchestra, led by Clarence C. White.
The first episode of the spectacle, a parade of African warriors who wore clubs and shield, and a mock combat with spets for the edification of the black king, 'Imagnance,' was greatly enhanced in which handsome women in burhair oriental costumes and rich offerings at the feet of the king.
The episode picturing female shaves pickling cotton under the cracks of the slave driver's hush, while they ground pathetic Gospel songs, was deeply affecting.
Education, a beautiful female character imagered by Miss Alice Higginbotham, who blinded the spark of amplication in the hearts of the slaves and armed them with iron and armored again and again long bursts of applause by the evidences of inspiration with which she infused her spirited role.
One of the highest tribal paid the performers was seen in the immammy with which the auditors reminded it absolutely the last performer had left the stage.
The pageant was produced in Atlanta and Savannah before coming here and is backed for Philadelphia. New York and other cities in order to raise a fund of $10,000 for Atlanta Universal-

EXPLANATION?
Two fields lie side by side, only a road divides them, the soil and every thing seems to be the same but what a great difference in the ripened grain! Two remedies are in the market, only the name of the manufacturer divides them, the ingredients seem to be the same, but

what a great difference in the results! How shall we explain it? The successful farmer and the successful manufacturer work not only with their hands, but principally with their heads. The farmer cultivates the soil and the manufacturer combines the ingredients so that he gets the most out of them. That is why Triner's Bitter Wine has no rival. It cleans perfectly the intestines, removes all injurious substances which made them a host of morbic germs and restores appetite and digestion. Triner's Bitter Wine never fails. Your druggist or dealer in medicines will tell you that also other excellent Triner's remedies like Triner's Liniment for rheumatism, neuralgia, lumbago (now in season), or Triner's Antiputin (excellent as gargle, mouth wash and cleanser of wounds) are fully reliable.

Boy's Activities
Boy's Activities
By Charles A. Cary
Remember boys, this column is yours. If you will send us anything that interests "you" — we are pretty sure it will be good enough to interest some other boy. So don't feel at all "at all case" as to what you send. Write plainly—put on your shirt on Saturday night, perilbing. Write only on one side of the paper and that's all. Address to 1221 Asland avenue, Baltimore, Md. Troop No. 15—Of all the active boys of Baltimore City, those of Troop No. 15 are certainly entitled to a full share of praise. They know no "snap." In all kinds of weather of season these boys must have been given great duties with a "will" that would put some other workers to charge. But then there are some essential facts that can't — just can't be overlooked. First there's the personality of the man—The Soup Master. Mr. Williams is one who is not merely interested in the business — "equilim." And right here is a "key note" to the whole situation of boys work.
Those in charge must not merely be interested. No! They must be encouraged. The work must mean so much to the individual that he will not feel a passing "interest" in "doing" or disinterested in personally be mindful of things inward yearning to be over up and at it, and rather be up and at it sometimes "out". When you get the habit to that extent you approach "one" of the roads (not the only road)—"one" of the roads to an encouraging success. Sean Murray Williams is one of those who have been a season an dout of season, with his boys and the result is that he is one of Battalioners most "plodding workers" with boys. Then another point. The boys themselves, every one wide awake and full of boys. That keep up their troops dawn, dusk and night that are trying to live up to the Sean out. boys that are trying to help in every possible way to raise themselves to heights successful.
Watch for a series of short articles from the pen of Master Harold Stephan, one of Baltimore Champion Athletes in the very near future.
Master Stephan is the president of the Allen's Chapel Boys Club, and is putting across the real "stuff," that's bringing success.
Master Elmer Campler, one of Walt Disney's brilliant boys ate so much turkey at the Walt Disney Boys Club Thanksgiving supper that thought that it would be movies for him to go to bed for fear the turkey "might come back" after him and close him under the bed.
Notice to all his presidents in Baltimore: get scared! There's a fellow—a vice president of the Waters Boys Club that's doing such good work well to be the "guy!" His name is Wm. Dean.
Mr. Rowland Carrington the boy president has an excellent station cognitive ability to catch messages as far South as Floridian even ships on the ocean, he can hear with perfect ease! That's going some

ALIBI FAILS TO

Dorsey, in a cool calm manner asserted that he had never seen the girl before she identified him as her assailant. C. Gus Grason and Elmer L. Haile, both white, who defended Dorsey made impassioned pleas to the jury in support of the alibi, asserting that Dorsey is innocent. State's Attorney Jennifer asked the jury to discard the alibi, asserting that Miss Tweedale's identification was positive. He asked for a verdict carrying the extreme penalty. The defense asked that sentence be suspended pending a motion for a new trial.
Dorsey was arrested following the statement by members of the girl's family that they could positively identify her assailant. Several men were arrested, but released when they could not be identified. The courtroom was crowded each day of the trial. Both John Snowden and Isaiah Fountain were tried at Towson for alleged crimes, each being convicted, and receiving

CAUSE
There is a very interesting family living in a small house on a street where the front and back entrance are the same. All is back yard to them, yet they try and keep, their home clean and cheerful. I am sure you will agree to the family being the terestering, when we go to the mother and the five children, two of whom are twin boys.
The two older children have never gone to school until this year, although they are several years past the age when children are supposed to enter school. Their teacher teaches their bright pupils and assigned with their programs. The father helps them with week, as a shoe black. This is not enough to supply food and fuel, and pay the rent for a family of seven. There is a new baby which handles the mother. Twenty-five dollars will supply the boys with clothing for school. Will you help to give them a change?

PHILLY TEACHER VICTIM OF J. C.
Woman And Escort Rudely
Treated By Conductor On
Annapolis Short Line
For Talking
BROUGHT TO THE CITY
N. A. A. C. P. Local Officer
Saves Couple From All
Night Stay Behind Bars
But for the friendly aid of Mrs. Laura J. Whatey, vice president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Miss Truman Carly, a school teacher in Philadelphia, and John Adams, formerly a student at Morgan Academy, now attending Philadelphia High School, might have spent night behind the bars in the Presbyterian Police Station.
The young couple in company with Miss Truman Keys, of 1243 29th street, Philadelphia, Pa., had been to Washington to attend the Howard - Lincoln Thanksgiving game, and after visiting relatives in Annapolis were on their way back to Philadelphia Sunday night on car fifty-nine of the Annapolis Short Line, on which M. Barber, white, was conductor.
According to Miss Cully the conductor was abusive to an elderly colored woman whom he wanted to move out of the second seat from the rear, into the last seat. Miss Cully the aged woman that the last two seats in each car were usually reserved for colored people, and that she did not have to move. The conductor responded by pushing her into her seat and tolling her to shut up. When the train arrived in Eastlake, the couple were taken to the Western station and later released on $1.45 collateral each furnished by Dr. and Mrs. Wheatley, who took care of the young people for the night.
At the Western police station on Monday morning, Justice Ranft declared that Miss Cully's words to the conductor constituted "disorderly conduct" and fined her $2.45. Because young Adams protested against the conductor push the young woman, he was declared "disorderly" also and fined $2.45.
No word of retaliation was uttered by the mandate to Barber for his strong arm methods in handling the young woman, although three persons testified as to his rudeness. Mr. Cully, well known in Ananolis, came up to the trial Monday morning and paid the fine. The attorney for the Short Line Railway who asked permission of the court to explain the Jim Crow law after the trial was told by the colored people present they didn't desire a lecture from him.

Jerry Louis, 220 Pound Hod Carrier Victim Of Accident On Saturday
While carrying plaster used in the construction of the Lanahan Building, Light street near Redwood last Saturday, the four foot platform upon which he was walking was demolished by a slide of concrete from above, precipitating Jerry Lewis of 519 Mount street in a mass of debris and iron pipes three stories to the ground below.

THRILLS AT EARLY MORNING. FIRE
Mother Risks Life To Rescue Four Year Old Child She Forgot
Four year old Nathan Scott, who lives with his parents in an apartment over the bakery at 1101 McCalloh street, was forgotten by his mother in a fire early Tuesday morning. The child lay sleeping calmly, while the mother made her escape scantily clad to the street. Unmindful of the danger, however, Mrs. Scott retraced her steps and brought her child back unharmed. Fire in the bakery is said to have been caused by rats. Laminol Royd was regarded by neighbors as a hero this week, for his prompt action in making persons on the second and third floors probably saved them from suffocation.

"In France they treat every man as a man, regardless of race or color, while in England they have the genius of perverting Christianity," asserted Bishop John Hurst at the Y. M. C. A. last Sunday afternoon, where he gave an illum-
Bishop Hurst told of his landing at Antwerp, his visit to Brussels Flanders Field, and thence to France, where he spent most of his time, before going to Geneva his objective point.
The speaker told of his visit to Chateau Thierry, Rheims, Montfaucon, the Champagne front, Argonne Forest and other battlefields. At one place the bishop said he received permission to visit the barracks where the soldiers stay. "What part of the barracks are you most desirous of seeing?" asked a French colonel. "We would like to see the French connoisseurs," said Bishop Hurnier, the colonial French troops from Africa and the West Indies."
"When they came to France to fight in the world war they were called colonials," said the colonel. "but now that they are in the regular army, they are French soldiers."
There was absolutely no color line in the barracks, he said.
Bishop Hurst said that the colored soldiers from America made a fine impression, and that people everywhere were invlush in their praise of our boys.

Contest On Page Twelve Is
Second Of Series Running
The Afro's Prize contest, which began in last week's issue and offered prizes to the readers who succeeded in getting the largest number of words out of the letters contained in AFRO.AMERICAN has "gone big." This is the verdict of the Contest Editor, on whose desk is a wire basket entirely filled with letters from readers all over the country. Wednesday morning's first mail brought in 74 letters alone, 59 of them from the city and 15 from outside, and there are at least five mail deliveries each day. Bebore Contest Number One closes Friday night, it is expected that the three winners will be picked from among several hundred contestants.
Asked if he was not apalled by the number of replies received and the necessity of going thru so many letters to find the winners, the Contest Editor declared that "the mere the merrier is her slogan." She added.
"It shows that readers of the Afro are going to eat these contests on the basis for the week was only the beginning, and when the contests are under way several weeks, I confidently expect to have to open a thousand replies a week."
"These replies to Contest number one will be opened at the end of this week, and the results together with a picture of the winner announced in next week's AFRO-AMERICAN?"
Asked what was the largest number of words, anyone had sent in out of the letters in AFRO-AMERICAN? the Contest Editor smiled: "I am afraid, you will have to wait until next week for an answer to that question."

Bishop Hurst-At The "Y" Sunday
Tells Of His Three Months Stay.
In Town Of Europe
Speaking of Paris, he said it is a wonderful city where a man's race does not operate against him, as in the United States. "I thought Paris, being a large cosmopolitan city, that the question of whether the amount to anything there, but in the smaller cities that I visited all over France I found that the same state of affairs existed. France is a country where free thinking and skepticism brother, liberty, equality and fraternity prevailing everywhere. In England and America, where so-called Christianity exists the color line is sharply drawn. On the same ships that carry missionaries to the natives of Africa run is also the color line from Paris in treating men according to their merits."
Board Of Estimates Okeys School
Board Recommendations To
Pay Colored Secondary
Teachers Less Than
Whites
Declaring his "sympathy" with the idea of equal pay for equal work, nevertheless Mayor Proceeding and the Board of Estimates adopted the recommendations of the School Board whereby the colored teachers in the high and training school will be paid from $300 to $1100 a year less than white teachers doing the same work.
The action of the Board of Estimates took place after the hearing in which a number of leading white and colored citizens asked the Board to equalize the salaries, and the Board had returned the recommendations to the School Board for Revision.
When the School Board returned the recommendations without "change," the Board of Estimates passed them without a dissenting vote, the only amendment being to add an increase of $600 instead of $300 to the Principal of the High School's salary. The action of Mayor Broening and his Republican subordinates directly reverses the policy of the Democrats two years ago, who established a salary scale for teachers with equal pay for teachers regardless of race or sex.
ODD FELLOWS
HAVE BIG DAY
Thanksgiving Day was a big one among local Old Fellows. A street parade led by Baltimore Patriarchy Regiment No. 1, under command of Col. Thomas B. Sliper, took place in the morning, winding up at St. Peter Claver's Hall, where the festivities were held. Members of St. Andrews Commandery of Masons were also in the line of march. About $500 was realized toward the payment of the debt on the hall at Lanvale and McCulloh streets.

The bizarre lesson from the United States census report on the population in Baltimore is found in the statement that the city has now 23,611 more colored people today than it had in 1910. The entire colored population in the city is now 168,294.
The rate of increase among colored people for the years 1900 to 1910 was just nine percent. The rate of increase for the years 1910 to 1920 was twenty-seven percent, three times larger. And because of all the city has absorbed this triple increase with little fuss and feathers, except the trouble in building houses during a time when building costs almost prohibit the construction of moderate and low-rises.
Continued with other cities, the eastern people show the drift of colored people from the South during the civil war, and that Baltimore is populated by this movement more Washington, which inhabited in the last ten years by only 15,000 colored persons. The capital of the nation, which ten years ago had the largest colored population is now only little more than one thousand ahead of Baltimore, and in the next ten years will be left far in the rear.
Cincinnati's colored population increased fifty percent in the past ten years and now has 29,636 colored people. In the same time Louisville, Kentucky's colored population decreased one tenth of one percent.
The final count is safe to indicate that in Northern and Western cities like New York, Philadelphia and Chicago, the colored population has increased by leaps and bounds while the Southern cities have remained stationary or gone backward.
Baltimore has shared with the North and the West in reaching out and assimilating migrants from the South. There is plenty of work here for all. There is no room for the old, the indoent and the backward. The fact that this assimilation has gone on quietly, almost unconsciously is the best indication of the city's capacity for future growth.

KU KLUX IN BALTIMORE?
Baltimoreans may have to think seriously of what they will do when they see members of the Ku Klux Klan, garbed in white and masked, ride in the broad day light down Pennsylvania avenue. Colonel Hill Simmons, white, head of the organization, who declares that he is the "only one positively known to hold membership in the order," claims that thousands of members in the East, on States are devoted "citizens" of the Klan, although their membership is never made public. Membership in the Klan is said to be one of its secrets, and, continues the Colonel "we have thousands of members in New York."
Simons is the grand mogul on chief of the Klan in the country, calls himself the "Imperial Wizard," and affirms that organizations may already be organized in New York, Philadelphia, Boston, and Baltimore, when he says, the "formation of a branch is never made known except when it becomes necessary for the Klan to carry out its solemn duty without fear and without reproach."
The Ku Klux according to its own motto of "white supremacy at any cost" prides itself upon an organization that is superior to the law and capable of defying legal procedure "without fear and without reproach." No law abiding community has tolerated its mummery or will tolerate it. When the time comes that white clad Klansmen can parade the streets of New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore notice will be served on the police the mayor of the cities and the governors of the states that they are no longer able to provide for the peace and safety of the citizens and it is time for all the people-to take the law in their own hands.
EDITORIAL PAGE OF THE AFRO-AM
THE RED MENACE
America can point to no more faithful and loyal group of its citizens than the colored population. Lawabiding and peaceable to a fault, colored people have born up under four centuries of oppression in the United States that has tried their souls without appearing to affect their endless good nature and optimistic viewpoint.
Anyone who gives more than a cursory glance at the conditions in Ireland today, where the country is torn with revolution and rebellion against the motherland England, and where every English official in the Emerald Isle trembles for his life, can have a forcaste as to what may happen eventually in the United States.
Lost conditions in Ireland be regarded as an isolated case, the birth of republics in Russia, Germany, and the revolts in India and Egypt point to the historical truth that there is a limit to human patience and endurance. Long before the Russian revolutionists got the upper hand in government, Black and Red Hand organizations carried death and terror into ruling circles. Secret organizations, whose reason for existence was to bomb, poison, and kill leaders of their oppressors appeared as logical forerunners of big movements for social and political reform.
America is in anomalous position. A century or two ago white colonists came here from Europe seeking religious freedom, which is not so precious as economic, political and social freedom. Men can worship God in the sanctity of their own chambers, but they must work, vote and live among others. Today the descendants of those same colonists deny economic, social and political freedom to millions of black people, because they are black.
Here lies the menace. Black men at bottom are like others. No intelligent citizenship will tolerate "taxation without representation" today any mode than it did in 1776. In the past the masses of Negroes have been illiterate and dependent; but lately literacy and independence have developed on a tremendous scale.
As an indication of this, the press dispatches report the speech of John Reed, white, at a meeting of Russian radicals in Moscow recently in which he is quoted as saying: "A certain section of U. S. Negroes are carrying on a propaganda' in favor of armed revolt against the whites, and socialistic ideas are rapidly developing among the blacks employed in industrial establishments." Henry L. Mencken, white, sometime ago predicted a social revolution in which Negroes will obtain equal rights. So have many other sociologists who have regarded the color problem seriously. The black mass is silent now, but the rumblings now and then give evidence of the red menace smoldering below the surface.

OUR REPUBLICAN FRIENDS (2)
On the ground that colored secondary schools in the city are of lower standard than white, and that colored teachers of average grade can be employed for less money, the School Bard for the second time recommended higher wages for white teachers.
This second action took place last week, and was passed upon favorably by the Board of Esti-mates. The budget now goes to the City Council, which has the authority to reduce the appropriations, but has no authority to equalize salaries. Under present circumstances therefore, colored teachers in the high and training schools will receive salaries from $200 to $1100 a year less than white teachers doing the same work.
The surprising feature of this action is that it took place under a Republican administration, and in a so-called Republican School Board for which a Republican Mayor is responsible. Two years ago a Democratic School Board under a Democratic Mayor set up the principle of equal pay for school teachers without regard to sex or color, and the city parents welcomed the dawn of a new day in the higher schools. Now come the Republicans who inject the race and sex issues, cry aloud about the inferiority (7) of colored children and colored teachers, and negative all the constructive work of their Democratic predecessors.
Quite as astonishing as this, is the knowledge that the School Board acted in defiance of the requests of the colored teachers, the colored citizens themselves, and in defiance of pleas for equal salaries on the part of Mrs. Edward Shoe-

The passing of the late Charles R. Douglass, on Wednesday of last week, in the city of Washington, recalls the figure of his illustrious father, Frederick Douglass, the foremost Negro yet produced in America. Charles R. was the youngest and only remaining son of the "sage of Anacostia" as Mr. Douglass was often called.
Not having literary centres, in this city, wherein the race is systematically educated in its history, and great men, there is grave danger that the rising generation may grow up almost wholly ignorant of the lives of the great Negroes Maryland has produced.
It was my very great privilege personally to know the Hon. Frederick Douglass. It was not the first time that I had seen him, but it was the first occasion of being formally introduced to this great man in August 1886; at Atlantic City. The occasion was the sixth annual meeting of the American Press\Association, of which the writer was secretary. The late Rev. Dr. W. J. Simmons, of Kentucky, was the president. I never shall forget the warm interest, and commendation of Mr. Douglass towards John Mitchell, of the Richmond "Planet," and myself. We were the youngest "editors" in the group, and had scarcely passed our majority. Mr. Douglass was most enthusiastic that two, quite young men of the race, should be in such a worthy cause. His gracious words, and kindly touch, were unction to our very souls. To receive the benediction of the greatest man of the race gave us new enthusiasm for the work. I distinctly remember what a great time we had, at the close of the Press Association, in shape of a "banquet" tendered us all, at the "Clinton Cottage," by Editor J. A. Arneaux, of the New York "Enterprise."
Great questions, effecting the race, were discussed at that meeting, and I am exceedingly fortunate in having in my possession the proceedings of that body. It would trespass too much upon your space even to hint at them. But I will mention some of the names of "the editors" who were present and who took part in its proceedings; and, from the names indicated, one may have some idea of the strong and weighty words uttered.
In addition to those whose names have already been mentioned, there were the following:
P. H. Murray, St. Louis, Mo., T. Thomas Fortune, New York, Bishop B. T. Tanner, Bishop Lee, Andrew Jones, W. F. Powell, and Christopher J. Perry, Philadelphia, W. Calvin Chase, Washington, D. C., R. S. Smith, Cleveland, Ohio, Hon. Alxander H. Clark, Chicago, Ill., Rev. D. Dr. Rufus L. Perry, Brooklyn, N. Y., Robert Pelham, Detroit, W. H. Stewart, Louisville, Ky., J. C. Ware, Philadelphia, and William E. Matthews, Washington, D. C.
When I recall the profound impression made upon me, as a young man, by the speeches and discussions of those great giants, and how it all wrought in me in after life, I feel very sad at heart, that right here in Mr. Douglass' home state, and the city where his early boyhood days were spent, that our intellectual life, and aspirations, can not command one single "forum" of systematic education for the race, for whose freedom and elevation Frederick Douglass gave forth the best that was within him.
maker, Mrs. Donald Hooker President Guth of Goucher College and a number of such upstanding white citizens. The net result of the whole procedure is that the colored secondary schools will be retarded in their progress for a year at least, that the citizens realize that Mayor Broening has "double-crossed" them again in their efforts for better schools, and that they are also convinced that a colored member on the School Board is the necessary step towards the securing of a square deal from that body.

MORGAN TEAM MAKES STATEMENT ABOUT THE GAME AT STORER COLLEGE.
Mr. Editor —
I wish to make a statement concerning the error made by Storner College relative to the Store-Morgan game Saturday November 13, 1920 in our press.
If the many readers of the Afro had been the table of sportsmanship to which Morgan College football team was seated on the above date, Storner would have retired to the mountain behind the team then to mount itself through the press as the origin of the contest.
The gridiron was not a regulation field. There were hills and valleys lower the field. A huge tree was thirty yards from the goal on the north side and on one occasion a Store-Morgan man caught a forward pass and started behind this tree and had it not been for the dexterity of full back E. E. Hodges, Jr. he would score. In some cases he would be either taken two feet above the natural level. And it was the field conditions that forced J. L. B. E. Sorrens to retire from the game, he was not tackled at all. He received the ball for an end run and the valley fell as the result of a sprained ankle.
The result is an ancient attribute of men and the more it is cultivated the more the become the victim of prideful players. Store-Morgan will always break as long as she permits partial thanks to decide her contests with other schools.
In general Morgan College Football Team has been criticized by incompetent critics which purpose to destroy her organization. But the team has stood together. Mr. L. B. E. Sorrens who was elected Captain organized the team and stood by it the last game was played and I must say that Mr. Ayers has managed the leadership and more to mute as an organizer. And it is not to much to say that no other team has been so keen in the team than the influence of Mr. Ayers. Mr. Ayers stands first as the manager of the 1921 Football Team. He is not a hot headed young man but show and considerate on all occasions. Ayers is a member of the Class of 1921. The season for the Morgan College City and press for their cooperation. History is yet in our grasp and we will win.

NEW FORKER ASKS A PERFECT
LIBRARY DEVELOPMENT
To the Editor:—
According to an article that lately appeared in the New York World, it would seem that white Americans and Europeans controlling $20,000,000, are eagerly seeking to secure very valuable commercial, agricultural and mining rights in the Republic of Liberia. As you doubtless are aware, Liberia was founded and brought into the family of nations by American Natives, not only with much suffering, but also at the cost of many lives. Therefore we, the descendants and heirs of those pioneers, have a perfectly unassailable right to consider ourselves as owning a very valuable hereditary equity in this country, so rich in the matter of natural resources. And this being so, why should we allow white persons a monopoly; why not ourselves win some portion of the African wealth? Now, will you kindly give thought to this matter, then send to us, at your very earliest convenience, an
question. viz.:

Money in your pocket is the one thing "hat is as faithful as a dog.
It asks no questions, demands no references, never inquires into your moral character, does not care whether you are a deacon or a porch climber, never hems and hawks and looks the other way; but when you want anything it goes and gets it for you, of course.

Two years ago I was present at the dedication of the main building, and at that time I thought that the Malones had outstripped anything we had seen and said so. But they seem to have bragged. The next times I saw the size of the older building, and is built to take care of the manufacturing department of the business, while the old building will be largely confined to the business side, room for each being sadly needed.
This new enterprise has been erected at a cost of $150,000 this added to the former building, which was erected at a cost of $350,000 makes the total cost of this business enterprise just one half million dollars. If this is not the largest business enterprise of our people we would like to know where the other one is. I woke up to go into a description of the whole building but it is not possible to do so. However, I have this to say, that it is equipped with every modern convenience known to the most modern business enterprise. In addition to the business side of the affair, there is a well equipped laundry, a bakery, with all the latest improvements: a kitchen with 14 storage, garages for the trucks used in the business as well as the several passenger cars used for the Malones as well as for visitors.
$13,000 FOR CHARITY
Dear buildings were beautifully decorated with flowers and a most elaborate program rendered each evening. The best of this enterprise is not the business itself, but that which is growing out of it. Mr. and Mrs. Malone seem not to feel that all they are making be-long particularly to themselves. While they are living as people ought to live who have a similar income, they feel that for the purpose of making a good steward for what the good Father in Heaven has given them, and they are using it for the benefit of humanity, as they see the opportunity. In a recent drive to raise ten thousand dollars for a community center in the little town of Quincy, Illinois, they were present in helping to raise the money but in giving to the fund $3,500.
The Colored Home for Orphan Boys and Girls had been condemned by the authorities of this city as a livestock and a new building being an absolute necessity, they inaugurated a drive to raise $40,000. This drive was more than $40,000. This drive raised thousands dollars, sixy-seven thousand dollars being raised, the Mature driving of this amount, a lot of ground worth ten thousand dollars to erect the new, building upon their benefaction during the past several years will loatl much more
than twenty thousand dollars, and this does not count the thousands of dollars given to other purposes of which only those benefited know anything about. They are giving where giving is worth while. The large number of newspaper men and the conferences they have held have been beneficial to them. The newspaper man was gone fully, and the privilege of being among the latest word about the Publishers' Association and cooperative buying. The evening meetings held in the most beautifully decorated auditorium were delightful and very helpful in every respect. These facts stick out about the business done at Poro College: (1) Over 240 employees work—a payroll of $3,000 per week. (2) 75,000 agents in all parts of
[Barf $3,000] PRESIDENT OF TREASURY
The Missouri folks are advocating the appointment of Mr. Malone to the position of Register of the Treasury and two years from now election to Congress from his district. One thing is certain he will have the loyal support of the Congressional delegation from his state. Whether Mr. Malone will be justified in accepting the position of Register of the Treasury is its question. Assuming the minds of some of his best friends. Many think that a position of greater importance with more honor and dignity attached, would be more in keeping with his standing politically as well as financially. Certainly the salary attached to the position would be no attraction to a man who can afford to give away three of his money that much. Certainly the Malones would cut a wide swarth in Washington. Society whirl would have a hard time keeping up with, not the Joneses, but the Malones.
South Okeys Pan-Education
Commission Claxton's Educational Conference Urges Elementary, High And Collegiate Courses
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 2.—"The masses of the southern people, both white and black, are going to be made, intelligent, and as the demand grows for land-grant colleges, these colleges are going to be organized to meet those demands," declared T. H. Harris, Louisiana Superintendent of Public Instruction, speaking on Saturday in behalf of a committee of seven representative white and colored men, at the second and closing day of the citizens' conference on Negro education called by Dr. Philander P. Claxton, United States Commissioner of Education.
In stating the lines upon which the land-grant colleges for Negroes throughout the South should be guided, Superintendent Harris said: "Our committee declares that the masses of colored children should be reached with efficient elementary education, and it should be the purpose of the officials to proved good elementary schools for colored children, the same as for white children. Systems of high school should be developed adequately to care for all Negroes who complete the elementary schools, and who are conditioned to permit the work of the land-grant colleges should be confined to instruction of college grades and proper degrees, granted to those earning them."
"The purpose of these colleges should be to send to the farms, trades and industries, men soundly educated with a view of equipment them for successful occupations. They should

people to live in the country and learn to operate their own farms. If graduates are given the opportunity to own and operate their own farms, a reasonable number of them will go into the country. Public money is wasted in these colleges on men who do not become farmers.
"These schools should teach that morality, honesty and square dealing must characterize every good citizen. Public sentiment should be that colored people everywhere can feel and know that they can count on absolute justice and square dealing on the part of boards in charge of the schools.
"There should be a board charged with the administering of the affairs of these schools. Instruction should not confined to students who are fortunate enough to attend, but the extension department should be improved. There should be a fair distribution of federal funds between these white and colored agricultural and mechanical colleges with no discrimination shown against the colorguard. State colleges should support their colleges liberally and adequately without and reference to their support.
Louisiana, Superintendent Harris declared, has advanced enormously during the past three or four years, with public sentiment fine toward the Negro race. With no discrimination shown between white and colored appropriate colored children are com- into the schools by the thousands as a result.

Ministers Rap Suffrage Laws
Say South's Representation In Congress Should Be Reduced Because Of Disfranchisement
That the Congress of the United States should reduce the representation of those States in the national lawmaking body that discharges voters because they are alienated by the consensus of opinion. It was addressed by speakers at the U.S. Baptist Ministry's Conference in Parking Square Baptist Church Monday of last week.
Rev. R. W. Jefferson asserted that, if the people were enfranchised in the South it may become necessary to have elections there supervised by the federal government.
D. L. Callaway, who has an intimate knowledge of conditions in the South, said that the suffrage laws are administered there so as to admit all whites and to make extremely hard for colored citizens to register. The United States Supreme Court nullified the grandfather's clause five years ago, he said, but the property and educational classes are still sed against the race. He said that some of the registered colored voters were indicted when they went to vote. John W. Jones told the ministers that it is time to stopgging rights given by the constitution and to assert them.
QUARTERLY
MEETING HELD
Salvary Zion Church Reports
Progress
The second quarterly conference of Salvary A. M. E. Zion Church, was held Monday night. According to reports submitted the presid-

Shiloh Baptist Church Baptizes
Members
The congregation of Shiloh Baptist church, Spurrow Point, held baptismal services at Mt. Aarand Baptist church, Chanton, last Sunday morning. Seven wives immigrated from the first named church and lay, James Earley pastor of Mt. Aarand.
Rev. J. W. McCoy Tells Congre
ation That Harding's Election
Means Much To Race
Rev. J. W. McCoy, in the course of his seminar at the Pennsylvania Avenue A. M. E. Zion Church last Sunday morning, declared that the hours of the race for fair treatment have been heightened through the recent Republican national victory. He asserted that the man was not a victim of unfair right lights. At night Dr. McCoy exhibited a check for $1,000 from Dr. W. H. Coler, financial secretary of the denomination, which will be applied toward liquidating the mortgage indebtedness. The congregation is now trying to raise $5,000. He presented a check for $45, which he applied to leaving on a Thanksgiving trip to North Carolina.
A state rally was held at St. Matthew's M. E. Church, 218th St. of Pareth, and nearly $500 was raised. Rev. R. A. Green is pastor.
LODGES AT CHURCH
Pythians, Order Of: Moses, Seven Wise Men, and Good Hopes At Services
Bethel M. E. Church was crowded to the doors last Sunday afternoon, the occasion being the annual sermon to the Grand Court of Calanthe, Knights of Pythias.
The Order of Moses turned out in large numbers at Metropolitan M. E. Church last Sunday night, at which time the pastor, Rev. R. W. S. Thomas, urged the members to keep pushing forward in all things.
Rev. C. B. Bishop preached a special sermon to local lodges of the Seven Wise Men at Eastern M. E. Church last Sunday afternoon.
Golden Link Lodge and a large number of members of other lodges of the Good Hopes gathered at First Baptist Church last Sunday evening to listen to a sermon.
AWAIT HARDING REPLY

Bov. C. E. Hodges proacted at the union services between Ashbury M. E. Church and Waters A. M. E. Church, in the latter office.
A hotel supper was given at Perkins Square Baptist Church at night.
Dr. O'Connell Is Speaker At Aberdeen Church
Aberdeen, Md., Nov. 30.—In an address here on "Signs of the Times" at Union M. F. Church Thanksgiving night, Rev. Peziavia O'Connell, of Morgan College, Baltimore, professed to see a brighter day ahead for the race.

Kills More Than He Cures
The Only Kind Of Physician Many Native Africans Know
"Is The South Awake?"
(Bedford, Mc., Journal)
Governor Coolidge, in his conciliatory speeches during his recent campaign trip into the Southern states, pointed out that Americanism and conservative thought may be found in abundance South of the old line of cleavage. This great truth will become plainer and plainer to the people North of Mason and Dixon's line as the Southern voters slowly but surely recover from their habit of voting sectionally. In a republic government is by parties, and for the sake of safety at least two parties are necessary. For healthy politics competition is just as necessary as it is for healthy business. One party acts as a check upon the other, and any party long in power becomes corrupt through losing sight of its responsibility to the people. The standard of American politics will be low when there is no competition between parties. The Democratic party has been demoralized by its monopoly in the Southern states. As a whole and in the long run its recent loss in the Southern states will be worth all it cost.
BALLADE TO DUNBAR
By LUCIAN B. WATKINS
We would not call you, Dunbar, from your rest.
For you were weary when you softly sang
That hulbaby that soothed your love-sweet breast
And over the raptured world divinely, rang
Beneath life's dark and storming clouds that hang
Above them, on through the fateful night
That hides the smiles of Heaven from our sight—
Lo, while you sleep the sleep of Paradise
We seek the blessed morning and its light—
"Ere sleep comes down to soothe the weary eyes"
ENVOY
Ah, Poet Pauli you sang and all is right!
We feel our souls expanding for the flight—
Lord, help us breathe to Thee a prayer and rise
And the Truth Eternal on the Height.
"Ere sleep comes down to soothe the weary eyes"

There is a very young man in a city of 30,000 inhabitants who the other day at the age of twenty-three was elected a supervisor of his county. If any one in the world had ever had opportunity to get into a rut that young man had. He had a hard time as a youth and started his business career when he was young. He began weighting a bicycle shop. After a while he turned his attention to manning and selling bicycles. Then later he opened a shop.

The story of a boy's grit, a girl's devotion, and a couple of old friends is better than hate. Charles Ray at his best. 'Don't miss it.'
Rutty people are nearly always rusty people. It is seldom one finds that a keen mind, a vital body, is in a rut. It is almost impossible for a person who is quick with life and intelligence to get into a groove of any kind. How to keep out of the rut should be the effort of every person who wants to succeed in life—and who does not?
"Oh you say, that is all very well to talk about, but when one has work to do, day in and day out, how can one keep out of a rut?"
WORK-ONE SOLUTION
But it would seem that if any in the world can save the rutty son it is work. The person who the same work in the same way in and day out, year after year, not possibly make any progress.
munity, though in appearance he is little more than a lad. If he had gotten in a rut he would still be in the old shop mending bicycles.

At last he opened his own who shop, put in motorcycles and auto-who mobile tires and accessories. He was on a side street, but one where there was much passing and so his trade work proceeded. can. When he decided to enter the race for County Commission? he did not put into the paper just the same kind of advertising that the other politicians used. He put as much human per-ple in his publicity as possible. The Court House clock was famous for never keeping time. He inserted an advertisement saying that if he were can-lected County Commissioner, the first
city, other than its clock fixed. If he had to pound it himself and take the price out of his own pocket. Now it so happened that the Court House clock had been a sore subject for along time. People missed important engagements because of the delinquencies; it was frequently commented upon, but had never been corrected. As soon as he came out with his statement the county Solons got bury and had the clock mended, and he got another local story on the front page. There is no doubt that one little incident got him many votes.
