MAMIE SMITH
JAZZ SINGER
NOT DEAD
Popular Singer Of The "Blues" Together With Jazz Hounds Keeps Engagement In Norfolk
Week Of February 9th Company Is Booked To Play In Savannah, Ga.
Noelfa, Va., Jan. 26.—Denying that she is dead, Mamie Smith, unique singer of popular jazz and blues songs, appeared at the Attacks Theater here Monday night before a crowded house. She was accompanied by her jazz hounds, a band of instrumental musicians.
For the past two weeks rumors have been going throughout Baltimore and Washington, that Miss Smith who rose from a member of a travel concert company to sustain in less than five months, had been assaulted and killed.
Friends of her who know her best say she has not been spoiled by success and is still the same Mamie Smith she has always been self-willed. "I said Miss Smith in a recent interview, 'that these thousands of people who come to hear me at my concerts, expect much, and I do not intend that they shall be disappointed.' They have heard my photograph records and they want to hear me sing these songs the same as I do in my own studio in New York. For that reason, I am taking with me
my original jazz hounds, who are in my opinion, the finest players of syncopated music in the world today. Another thing. I feel that my audiences want to see me becomingly gowned, and I have spared no expense or pains in featuring the shops of the most fashionable midlays in America, which the result that I believe my audience will like my gowns as much as I do, for I feel that the best is none too good for the public that pays to hear a singer."
Inside the jazz hounds, Miss Smith's company includes, a jogger and a ventriloquist. She is on a Southern tour now and her next stop will be the week of February ninth in Savannah, Georgia. In one city she sang to an audience of 11,600 paid admissions.

Barbades, I. W. L. Jan. 18. (Special) This island has been the mecca for wealthy American whites during the winter months due undoubtedly to its warm weather at this season of the year, and to the American Irish Amendments.
While the temperature in the states hang around the freezing point, and Baltimore wonder where the next ten of coal at $15.75 is coming from, natives here who by the way outnumber the whites nine to one, walk around in a one piece garment covering their shoulders and loins in a temperature that never falls below 65 degrees and usually averages 80 degrees.
The climate, which is said to be favorable to sufferers of pulmonary diseases because of the porous nature of the soil and the absence of swamps, is the main attraction for American visitors, however, who recognize the two bars, which lures are obtainable in large numbers.
There are no prohibition officers here, in fact the island is wide open. Here of the good kind, costs 12 cents a bottle, and real Scotch or Ivy Whiskey retails at the same price per drink. Locating whiskey, which I understand Baltimoreans get, when they can at $5 a part costs from $1.25, while champagne, highballs, sherry, part, rum, gin and other drinks are downright cheap.
Also the island, which has only 155 square miles, one fourth-80% of the downtowns the population lives in, makes it one of the most thickly settled regions on the globe.
In spite of the lack of any prohibition laws, there is little drunkness except among the visitors. Frequent brews among the whites, especially among the sailors from visiting American ships go unnoticed by the colored policemen unless natives are disturbed. In spite of natural advantages that the law has afforded under British rule due to the lack of good schools and poor working conditions, the average wage of servants is $2 per week, and skilled carpenters and painters can earn little more than twice this much. Native们 are able to migrate as rapidly as possible to the United States, especially to New York, where an organization of West Indians them to get a start.

LEADERS SAY THEY DEFEATED TINKHAM BILL
Massachusetts Congressman's Measure To Reduce Representation Purposely Killed
LONGWORTH SPEAKS
Tells Afro Correspondent, Republican Party Has A Better Plan
By Colored Syndicate Press Bureau Washington, D. C., Jan. 26.—Copyright (Special to the Afro-American). The Apportionment Bill is of tremendous and vital importance to the twelve million Negroes of the Nation. When introduced by Chairman Seigel of the Census Committee, it could be readily seen that the battle lines were tightening, and that one of the greatest parliamentary battles in the history of the House of Representatives was on.
It was every evident from the start, that if the Bill, brought in by the majority of the committee was to be enacted in full, it would be done over the heads of the leaders of the Republican party, although, the majority of the Census Committee was Republican. However, the Republican leaders were not in accord with several sections of the Bill, mainly those calling for an increase of membership in the House.
The important feature of this legislation family passed, was that the Republican party gained all along the line, and made it possible for practical legislation to be enacted, that will be of great assistance in solving the complex suffrage question of a million colored men and women of the South. The Republican leaders had this mind, when they made the fight against increased representation in the House.
The Tikhikam resolution was defeated by a point of order made by Congressman Longworth, of Ohio. If the Tikhikam resolution had been accepted, the bill would have been defeated. It was a very inopportune time for Congressman Tikhikam, to press his resolution. Mr. Tikhikam, made a grievous mistake white Republican leaders say, having been advised by them that his resolution would so complicate the question before the House, that it would be impossible to pass the bill in any form.

RELIGIOUS TALK WRINGS CONFESSION AFTER THE THIRD DEGREE FAILS.
Annapolis, Md, Jan. 26.—When nearly five days of questioning and torture had failed, detectives Bradley and Hammersla, of Baltimore, used religious talk to obtain a confession of murder from Henry A. Brown, nineteen year old sailor of U. S. A. Cumberland, lying in anchor here. Brown confessed to killing Harriet L. Kavanaugh, Naval Academy nurse, to obtain eight dollars.
He was arrested Sunday night of last week and questioned continuously up to Tuesday, when he was put under the third degree. Harry Green, George House and Albert Pinkney, three colored men of the Shore Patrol, were placed in Brown's cell, at different times.

Starved and a physical wreck from the bedings and back of sleep. Brown still declared that he was not in Annapolis at the time of the crime.
The three men were told that Brown was responsible for their arrest, because they had failed to pick him up Friday night as a deserter from the navy. A dialective was placed in the cell so the detectives could hear the conversation. Green beat Brown unnerecfully so that he begged for mercy for two hours and pleaded to the Lord
NEGRO NOT INFERIOR TO OTHER RACES
NEGRO NOT INFERIOR TO OTHER RACES
Professor Franz Boas Of Columbia University Swats Idea Of White Superiority
OKEYS MULATTO
Bad For Human Stock, Bad For Human Stock He Says
New York, Jan. 26.—Popular belief in the inferiority of the Negro race is given a severe setback by Professor Franz Boas, white of Columbia University in an article in the current number of the Yale Review.
Professor Boas came into the lime light several years ago when he published his findings on the "Mind of Primitive Man" in which he proved that the size of the Negro brain does not vary from that of other races.
He says:
"An important phase of the Negro problem in this country relates to the position of the mulatto. The common saying is that he inherits all the bad qualities of both races.
"Socially this may be true in many cases, and it can readily be understood. If, however, the attempt is made to prove the biological inferiority of the mulatto, we are confronted by the fact that no evil results are found in the mixed population of Africa in the Northern borderland of the Negro country, where Mediterranean races and Negroes are present, the fact that under favorable conditions the mulatto is healthy and may attain to great eminence, as in the cases of Dumas and Pushkin. For the great mass of mulattoes in our own country, the relatively unfavorable conditions of life must be taken into consideration."
"Even if there is another a biological nor a psychological justification for the popular belief in the inferiority of the Negro race, the social basis of the race prejudice in America is not difficult to understand."
"It is natural that the stronger the individuality of a person who is thus assigned to a class with which he has little in common, the stronger must also be his moral against those who refuse to take him at his own individual worth, the moment of his life, the self-respect Negro feels the strain of his inability to overcome the prejudices that merge him in a type. This resentment will grow in extent as individual achievement develops among the Negroes while they are still not valued as individuals.
"It is easier to point out the cause of conflict between whites and Negroes than to formulate a remedy. If my view is correct, it is clear that the only fundamental remedy for the situation is the recognition that the Negroes have the right to be treated as individuals, not as members of a class."

Tuskegee Professor Has Audience With Tariff Commission Of House Of Representatives
MEMBERS APPLAUD
Democrats And Republicans Declare It Best Exhibition They Have Best Seen
Washington, D. C. Jan. 22.—One hundred new products from the ordinary peanut were shown to the Ways and Means Committee of the House of Representatives yesterday and pronounced the most wonderful exhibition the members had ever seen.
The exhibitor was Professor George W. Carver, head of the Department of Chemistry of Tuskegee Institute, and Democrats and Republicans greeted the conclusion of his remarks with applause, the first demonstration of the sort the
tariff hearing have ever known.
Professor Carver's discoveries exhibited include ten kinds of milk, five kinds of punches (cherry, lemon, orange, blackberry and orange), orange juice and flour, two grades of meat, five breakfast foods, new flavorings for ice cream, cakes, ginger-bread, cookies and various confections, chocolate-coated peanuts, peanut bars, crystallized peanuts, three relishes, nine wood sausins, ranging from malachite green to fumed golden oak, black ink, face powder and face cream. Worcester sauce, four different kinds of stock foods (including a hay composition made from the vine, ground hay with peanut cake and a sweet food with peanut added as a tonic), and various kinds of oils.
Carver showed the committee a landscape scene he had drawn with peanut ink. While he did not go into other investigations he has made, he stated that thus far he has discovered 17 products that can be made from sweet potatoes.
He said the flavoring extract obtained from the peanut extract could be used as a base for any number of flavors, and he mentioned strawberries, lemon and vanilla in addition to those he had discovered.
Carver appeared under the auspices of the United Peanut Association of America, which is asking for a protective duty against peanuts.

James W. Johnson Claims
They Dared Not Say
"Nigger" To His
Face
CALLS THEM COWARDS
Georgia And Florida Congressmen Charged With Changing Records
New York, Jan. 24.—(Special)
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People,
79 Fifth Avenue, New York, today made public a letter charging that Southern representatives in Congress, had had the word "nigger" inserted into the printed report of hearings, on disfranchisement of colored Americans, when they had not dared to use the word to colored witnesses.
The letter which is addressed to Representative Isaac Siegel, chairman of the Committee on the Census and is signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the Advancement Association, is as follows:
"January 24, 1821
"Hon. Charles Siegel,
Chairman, Committee on Census
House of Representatives
Washington, D. C."
"The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People desires to call your attention to the cowardly tactics employed by Southern members of the Census Committee of the House of Representatives of which you are chairman.
"These Southern Congressmen on the Census Committee write the word 'nigger' in the Congressional Record, although they did not dare use that term when speaking face to face with officers of this Association.
"They permit their proof sheets to go back to the printer, using the word 'nigger' than pretending to their fellow home that they dared use this insulting word to the colored witnesses. The Southerner pretends to be unable to pronounce the word _ egro, and what he says is this: "Nigrah, of course disarms and objection, inasmuch as it becomes a more matter of pronunciation. Presumably he is trying to say 'Negro.'
"Thus Larsen, of Georgia, and Milliam of Missouri, continually use the words 'nigger' and 'nigger woman' in the printed report of the hearing, when they did not dare use it in speech. If they had used these insulting terms to the colored men who faced them, there would have been something else in record. Larsen prefers to have the word 'nigger' in the william. Pickens concerning one William as being a 'nigger', a pretty good 'nigger' while Milliam prints himself in the record as using the term 'nigger woman.'
"May I ask that you see that the record is corrected so as to conform with the facts and that you advise me when these corrections have been made.
"Very truly yours,
(Signed)

TEN YEAR OLD TELLS OF ALLEGED CRIME
White Insurance Collector Charged With Attempting Assault. On Little Esther Short
HEARD STEPS
Child Says He Paid No Attention To Her Protests
That even ten year old children are not safe from middle aged white insurance collectors was evidenced last Friday morning in the Northwestern police station when Harry Feldheimer, white, 50 years old, collector for the Sun Insurance Company, was held for court under $500 bail for an allor- ed attempted assault upon ten year old Esther Short.
Mr. and Mrs. Samsul Short, parents of the little girl were in the station house and appeared much charranged at the small hall fixed by Justice Chapman. Attorney Payne, counsel for the plaintiffs, also called the magistrate's attention to the little girl's statement, with the idea that it would guide him in taking the ball, but the amount was not increased. A little excited, Mr. Payne walked up and down, but said nothing further.
Mr. Payne also objected to the little girl making any statement, folding Foldheim waived examination, asking that his trial go to the Criminal Court, but Justice Chapman overruled him, calling the toot to the stand where she told a straightforward story of the alleged attempt assault.
Not yet out of the graded schools and barely past her tenth year, the child told how Foldheim came to her parents' home at 611 Pitcher street to collect insurance her parents carry and that of her grandmother. Mrs. Short, she said was upstairs, and sent the money down by her.
When she came down with the money, the white collector, who is well in middle life and baldheaded down and called her over to take a seat on his lap. He pinched her cheeks, she declared, disarranged her clothing, meantime exposing himself.
Feldheimer, she stated paid no attention to her protest that "mother did not allow that," and only desisted when he that he heard her mother coming down stairs. Before leaving she added, Feldheimer warned her "not to tell," but she went directly to her mother and told what he had done. News of the alleged attempt at assault spread through the city Friday and created considerable bitterness. When asked by a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN what authority the Sun Life Insurance Company, 114 Bedford street, contemplated, the vice president declared that the whole matter had been placed in the hands of Judge Moses and that nothing further would be done.

a carpenter. There was no operation,
no host time, no trouble. I have
nothing to sell but will give information
how you may find a complete
cure without operation, if you write
to me, Eugene M. Pullen, Carpenter,

Friendly comment has been heard from many sites on a recent sermon by Rev J. H. Green, pastor of Union Baptist Church, who recently preached before the ministers conference. But Green declared, there should be more of love, sympathy and union among the clergy. "Ministers ought to come together, for followers of Jesus Christ should be able to settle their misunderstandings."

NOTICE
Baltimore, Md. Jan. 24, 1921
To the Editor of Afro-American;
Dear sir,
We the undersigned Officers and
Representatives of Bethel A. M. E.
Church, respectfully ask that, in your
edition of this week, out of a spirit
of fairness or at least prompted by a
pense of Justice you make a correction
of at least two statements that are
absolutely incorrect; with reference to
the discontinuance of the publication
of "Bethel Herald". We refer to page
(See Afro Jan. 14 P. 8).
As regards this last statement we wish to say that the Bethel Herald never was a continuous weekly publication, but that it was run as to
special during rallies and generally
was discontinued at the conclusion of a
rally, and that when the present
Pastor came to Bethel Church in June
1920 there was no paper known as
Bethel Herald being published nor
had there been such paper published
for some time prior to his appointment.
It has also been stated by the author of the article in question that "This year for the first time a price has been put on it." If any one thinks there is any truth in such a statement we have all the evidence necessary to convince any one—however anxious they may be may be to create unfavorable comment; that this is not the first time a price has been put on the paper. And that under former administrations we have had to pay cost of publication.
Respectfully Signed,
Wm. Magnuder, Wm. H. Doole, Wm.
Watts, George W. Cooper, Jr. Luther
C. Johnson, Stephen Shepherd, Arthur
G. Langford, Secretary; and
Thaddeus Copeland, Chairman.
ALLEN A. M. E. CHURCH, Lexington Street, Tev. Dr. C. Harold Stepton, Pastor.
As officers of Allen A. M. E. Church Stewards, Trustees, Stewardess, and Leaders, we feel called upon to say a word in behalf of the great work being done here by the faithful membership under the capable leadership of our pastor, Dr. Steptone.
We are pleased to say that we have never had a more peaceful administration, certainly never a more successful one, we have, under this present pastor paid the last dollar of mortgage indebtedness on the church and parsonage, a debt of more than 18 years standing, we have installed a most efficient system of electric lights in both parsonage and church, every current bill has met as it comes due, a thing, never in the history of the church was done before and some of us have been officers in this church for 20 or more years.
In December, we had a Mortgage Burning which we were told elicited any thing of its kind in workmanship and execution that had been given around here.
There is no division among us, we love our pastor and his wife and two dear children. He has mapped out for us a great work for the improvement of our church and we are willing to follow him.
We are doing more community work and work among the poor than ever before. During the Christmas we sent out more than 25 baskets to the poor and gave more than $20.00 in cash to those in need. Mrs. Stephan and Mrs. Hattie Green superintended the Christmas Charities. These two ladies deserve much credit for their mutting work in getting out these baskets to the needy.
We have decided to install steam heat, put in a new organ and make necessary improvements in our church.
This is done in sessions of the Official Board with the unanimous vote of the same, this the 7th day of January 1821.
John Maxfield and Wm. Barber, secretaries; Wm. Boardley, acting president.

THEATRICAL REVIEW
BY WILLIAM E. READY
THE NEW LINCOLN
Another tipton bill is on tap at the New Lincoln bill this week. It comprises Dudley and Dudley who have a line of chef and waitress chatter that is true to life: Griece and Coleman who sing and dance well, and also have a line of chatter that "knocks them off their seats". Original Pages who has an entertaining monologue followed by a song in reference to various individuals in the audience which made a great hit with the crowd; Williams and Edwards, who are two of the best harmonists heard here for some time; and "The All Star Review", a company of singers and dancers. The girls of this review not only are good dancers but are good to look upon and two of the best qualified in this respect, are Baltimore girls. However, there are some suggestive remarks and bits of action which might be eliminated without detracting from the merit of the act.
THE NEW RAINBOW
The vaudeville bill at the New Rainbow this week, comprises Duskball and Cook, a man and woman, who sing and dance, cleverly; Queen Dora who executes butterfly effects in the shadows of multi-colored lights from lantern slides, a new novel in the smaller vaudeville houses; Delyon and Ewing another male and female team who sing and dance in an experienced manner; and "Longboy" a rather comical fellow who knows how to get a laugh without opening his mouth.
THE CAREY
On Feb. 10th William S. Hart who has always been a great favorite with Carey audiences, will make his appearance in a screen character that will be a departure from those with which he has become chiefly associated, namely that of a city policeman, the title of the play is "The Cradle of Courage" and his admirers will find the erashev hero of the Western plains the same faithful defender of defenseless womanhood that he was when he wore the chaps and sambero. On the 5th Harry Carey, another son of the plains, will appear in the first installment of a series entitled the "Midnight Riders." The management has several other great treats in store for Carey patrons in the near future.
THE DUNBAR
The Tuesday feature at the Dunbar the coming week will be William S. Hart in the "Bandit and the Preacher" this is one of Hart's greatest pictures and every lover of good pictures should see it. The latest serials are now being shown daily at this house, and the crowds that are flocking there is ample evidence of the foresight of the management in divining the desires of their audiences.
TRE STAR
The Wooden Bottom Musical Comedy Company is at the Star this week.
This is a Western company which is playing the Baltimore circuit for the first time, and is creating the same sensation that it did at the other houses where it has appeared: standing room is at a premium at every performance.
THE PALACE
"The Four Dancing Demons" are at the Palace this week in conjunction with the "Girls From Happygirl" company, and are "holding up the show" at every performance, the four consists of two men and two women, who are dancers of a grade seldom seen in these parts, and they are acrobats of no can ability in the bargain.
THE NEGRO AND THE DRAMA
After struggling for nearly a decade to create interest among colored New Yorkers in the spoken drama of the better class, the management of the Lafayette Theater has been forced to abandon the project and turn once ore to the silent drama and vaudeville as the sole fare for the patrons of this house.
This is to be regretted, for there are some of us who had hailed their decision to tackle the drama, with high hope; expecting that it would prove a nucleus for the long-hoped-for general invasion by the race, into the field of the serious drama.
The cause of this failure, in the writer's judgment, is not far to seek: the theater, as everyone interested in it knows, is a place of illusion, a place of make-believe: primarily: the only element other than illusion, that enters seriously into the calculation of successful theatrical production, is what is called Realism. A play must, to be a success, be presented in a manner consistent with the ordinary bounds of the imagination, of the majority of its beholders, or else consistent with their experience. The policy of the management of the Lafayette ignored both these considerations.
That this was largely the result of circumstances, must of course be admitted; however there is no evi-
For it must be remembered that the Negro is a young and growing race; all young races are subject to the influences of the elemental passions, the forces they have to contend with in their daily life it is just around such forces that is built a national drama, and it goes without saying, that no class of drama presented by race players will ever hold the attention of the Negro play-goer for long, unless it is drama that comprehends life as Negroes know it. Into into bold relief every point of contact with which it touches him, and no one will deny that the predominating force in opposition to the Negro today is race prejudice.
This is the bane of his life, the ever present agree that must be crushed, and when you give him drama written around this enemy you give him life, his life.
On the other hand: when you offer him a play which depicts the triumph of a poor but proud young son of "one of the first families of Virginia" over an impacuous European duke in winning the hand o the only daughter of the "king of Wall Street" and place the portrayal of these characters in the hands of Negroes, you make a demand on his imagination that he cannot reasonably be expected to maintain forever.
For even in the broadest curriculure, there, must be, if ever so slight, a semblance of verisimilitude, and it makes no difference how pronounced his race pride may be nor how skillful the actor, there must always remain at bottom, the conscious conviction that the play is by its very nature a play for those who have a racial identity with the "first families of Virginia" and a "king of Wall Street." Of course there may be a few who are able with their "ininds eye" to visualize the situation in terms of drama rather than

Would you marry for money? . Her mother wanted notoriety and was willing to sacrifice her daughter, but the tides of fate prevail—WELL DONT MISS IT.
In further proof, take for instance, the case of a black-faced comedian, he may be ever so clever in portraying some of the accepted characteristics and idiosyncrasies attributed to the Negro, but there is never absent for a moment from the beholder's consciousness, the knowledge that the performer is merely a white man imitating a Negro; but let for instance, Bert Williams appear, and this attitude once changes, and the characterization becomes a living thing, not the Negro as he is supposed to be, but the Negro as he is.
Therefore it must not be hastily assumed that the Negro is not interested in serious drama, for with his deeply emotional nature, the Negro can be reached through this medium quite as effectively as any other race, but it must be by plays which portray life as it is revealed to him through his daily experience and not by doubly taxing his imagination, first by visualizing the characters of the drama in the person of the actors, and then the actors in the person of another race.

The Douglass Theatre
Now under construction on Pennsylvania avenue near Lanvale street.
When the Half-Million Dollar Dunbar Theatre at Broad and Lombard Streets Philadelphia opened last December, several of Baltimore's prominent citizens were present.
All of them were very lavish in their praise of the beautiful theatre, and were all agreed that it was the handsomest theatre in the United States owned and controlled by colored people. And the request was made on that evening that a commission of the Dunbar Theatre be built in the City of Baltimore.
supplement of the Burbank Theatre.
The management as once began investigating conditions in Baltimore, and were quickly convinced that a first-class theatre in the "Monumental City" would be not only an asset to our people there, but would become a big money-maker from the very start.
With that thought ever foremost, we began quietly looking for a suitable location for the theatre, and finally found what, in our opinion, is the best location for a colored theatre in the city. This site is on Pennsylvania Avenue between Lanvale Street and Lafayette Avenue.
It is the desire of the company that the stock be distributed among a large number of investors, rather than be held by a few large buyers of securities, and for this reason the price of shares has been put at a price at which even the smallest investor may get in on this proposition.
Colored theatres are no longer an experiment. In every city where a first-class theatre has been erected, success has attended the venture. The character of the performances which will come to the Douglass theatre will be of the same order as the attractions which have been playing in the Dunbar in Philadelphia and the Lafayette in New York with such wonderful success.
Here is an opportunity for Baltimore colored people to cash in on the experience which has been gained in the operation of this now famous chain of colored theatres, which is constantly growing in number and importance throughout the country. The facts are here presented in a plain, simple manner. If you are interested in the development of the race along cultural lines, here is your opportunity to do your part in bringing about this condition. Invest in the Douglass Amusement Corporation stock, and help to make the Corporation a success and a distinct asset to the race.
THE SITE—of this magnificent theatre (now in course of construction) is on Pennsylvania avenue between Lanvale street and Lafayette avenue, and is the best location for a building of this kind, anywhere in the city.
THE GROUND was purchased for cash—there are no mortgages or ground rent—such is our faith in the possibilities of Baltimore as a theatrical money-maker and we have already commenced the building of the theatre.
THIS THEATRE will cost four hundred thousand dollars($400,000) and will be as beautiful as the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia.
THAT THE colored people of Baltimore may have the opportunity of having a theatre of their own, and at the same time share in the profits, we have organized the Douglass Amusement Corporation, incorporated under the laws of Maryland and Capitalized for $500,000.
AT THIS TIME we are offering for sale a limited number of fshores of the 7% Participating Preferred Stock at Ten Dollars a share. Ownership of this stock gives the holder an interest in the valuable property of the Corporation, which will be made profitable by the production of the finest theatrical productions obtainable.
THE FACT that the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia under the same guidance has been able to pay a dividend of 8% during the first yearof its operation should prove conclusively to anyone that this latest venture will pay handsome Dividends to the investor.
IF SHOULD NOT be necessary to present any greater arguments in favor of purchasing this stock than the fact that the building is now being erected and the personnel of the management of the Corporation.
IF YOU ARE interested in the Race to the extent of desiring a theatre of the theatre where yourself or family can go freely and see the finest Broadway productions presented by capable artists, investment in the Douglass Stock will make this possible.
THE RESPONSE which has come to the efforts of the Corporation thus far has been highly gratifying. Baltimore has rallied grandly to the idea of a theatre for our people and owned by our people.
THIS ISSUE OF STOCK IS LIMITED ! ! !
NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT ! ! !
Do not let tomorrow find you undecided what to do.
Delay may mean another lost opportunity over which you may have many regrets.

A delegation from the Social
Service Club, headed by Rev. J. R.
L. Diggs, visited Police Commis-
sioner Gather the other day and
protested against newspaper re-
ports charging the race with the
came wave in this city.
Commissioner Gaither said he had not charged any particular group with being responsible for the crime wave. He then asked that the delegation and other members co-operate in putting down crime and detecting criminals.
Dr. Diggs suggested the appointment of forty colored policemen and a number of plain-clothesmen as an effective means of lessening crime. The commissioner did not reply to the suggestion.
The delegation also visited Mayor Ernesting and protested against the Ku Klux Klan being allowed to flourish here. The Mayor told his visitors that he would do everything possible to prevent its flourishing here and would not allow any public demonstrations.

We love life, liberty and the Flag.
Power is all right, when you know how to use it.
No man can be truly brave who is not truly free.
Don't tell a man how to be happy, make him happy.
White supremacy is dead supremacy. The same is true of black supremacy.
The man who knows little is the same fellow who will not learn much.
All un-American movements must die. The Ku Klux Klan is un-American.
We have the consolation that we didn't make ourselves black. God made us black.
The skies of the South are fair. May God help Her people to become as fair as Her skies.
POPULATION FIGURES
According to figures given out by the United States Census Department, Richmond, Virginia, has 54,047 colored people. Cleveland, Ohio, has a colored population of 37,474. Another twenty years and the big cities of the west will boast of as large a colored population as the cities of the South and North. So far Washington has the largest colored population of 109,000, then comes Chicago, and then Baltimore, both of which are only a few hundreds from the leader. The colored population of New York and Philadelphia has not yet been announced, but both are expected to go ahead of Washington.
ASSERTING THEMSELVES
Representatives of 4,000 colored Railway trainment, most of them employed on Southern lines, appeared before the United States Labor Board asking that government agreements and contracts with white trainmen, be extended also to include them. The Southern trainmen understand that by waiting for somebody to give them recognition, it may never come.
THE KU KLUX FUNCTION
The Ku Klux of Hall County, Georgia, figured out recently a brand new way to handle the race problem. First they had a general order issued that no person should have firearms in his home. Homes of all colored folk were searched and their firearms confiscated. Then the "nigger drive" began in which the colored population was forced to flee to other parts. The Ku Klux are sowing the wind, the reaping of the whirlwind will surprise them.

FREDERICK DOEGLASS' HOME
A little while ago many friends of Frederick Douglas, the great Marylander, were bitterly disappointed that his name was not chosen for a place in the New York University Hall of Fame.
According to the announcement of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs the colored people of the United States will be given an opportunity on Douglas' Birthday, February 12th, to place his name forever in the Hall of Fame at Anacostia, D.C. by making his home there so beautiful that visitors from all over the world will make a beaten home to "Cedar Hill."
Four years ago the women took hold of the Douglass Home, redeemed it from its mortgage debt and put aside in the bank $4,000 toward completely renovating and restoring it. Six thousand dollars is needed for this work, so that this year, the call goes out to the friends and admirers of Frederick Douglass to celebrate his birth in the usual style, and in addition make some contribution towards the restoration of the Douglass Home.
It is worth while noting that the largest contributor so far for this work was the late Madam C. J. Walker, and that a tablet in her memory will be placed in the finished building.
EDITORIAL PAGE OF THE AFRO-AMERICAN
HARDING'S BIBLE
It has just been learned why Senator Harding turned down the request of the Baptist Minister's Conference of this city to furnish him a Bible upon which to take the path of office on March fourth next.
The president-elect has asked that he be allowed to use the same Bible which was used first by George Washington for this purpose and that it be opened to Micah 6th chapter and 8th verse, which reads:
"He hath chosen thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God."
Harding's choice of a Bible will not make the ministers feel that he has not appreciated their offer, and they must admit also that he has picked out a suitable "text" for inauguration.
MR. HARDING PLAYS GOLF
"I have no message for the people of the South that I would not utter to all the United States." This is the heart motif of the message which President-elect Harding has written at the behest of Clark Howell, editor of the Atlanta Constitution, to the South.
Mr. Howell, it appears, is one of the prominent Southern men who is very anxious that a genuinely new era shall be opened for the southland. The Howell type of Southerner affects to be heartily tired of the present tangled situation which they say, is operating to the great economic and business disadvantage of their section of the country.
The "Race Problem" is, of course, at the bottom of the entire situation. This is acknowledged on all sides by all complexions of men. "What is the Republican party going to do about the South's fears in relation to the loudly expressed ambitions of its present-day Negro citizens?" is the question uppermost in the minds of all Southerners. Hence the request of the editor of the Constitution. He, with other white Southerners want to know and want to know so sincerely that they can literally taste it.
Mr. Harding's message has not evaded the direct question, it is declared by prominent men here, black and white, but, in his effort he has clearly called to the attention of the South the fact that the problems of the country are not sectional in character but apply, with equal force, to all the country. "Let's all pull together," he says. "Let us have oneness of Americanism." he declares in another instance of the "Message."
In the matter of Southern appointment, Mr. Taft is the only leading Republican who has worried himself with the fear that Mr. Harding may so far forget the Southern tradition that he will appoint Negroes to first class Federal positions in the South. Why, no one has been able to answer intelligently. Up-to-date the President-elect has said nothing which would indicate his attitude in the matter of appointments outside of his cabinet, and a good deal of this has been tentative nature.
Henry Lincoln Johnson is on the ground, but he has nothing to say about the question of appointments. Henry Lincoln may be playing "possum" no one knows. But he is keeping mum, just the same, and sawing wood, maybe. Dr. Emmett Scott declared he is not in politics and therefore has nothing to say about appointments. In fact everybody is up in the air on this all-important point and the result is a political fog so dense and thick one can almost cut with a knife.
In the meantime Mr. Harding has laid aside the affairs of state for the moment and is playing Golf in the balmy climes and under the blue skies where Federal appointments are not heartily in evidence and the only Negro appointments that he has to worry about are the caddies who carry his clubs around the links.
OUR REPUBLICAN FRIENDS?
The House of Representatives for the second time In its history halted the decennial increase of its membership. By a vote of 267 to 76 it was determined that the house during the next ten years shall be composed of the present number of representatives—435. Only once before has the house resisted the temptation to increase its membership following a census in order to avoid the representation reduction of any state. In 1841 the house membership was reduced by ten. Under the plan of apportionment adopted today eleven states lose and eight states gain representatives, while twenty-nine states suffer no change. Missouri loses two members and Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Nebraska, Rhode Island, and Vermont one each.
California gains three, Michigan and Ohio two each, and Connecticut, New Jersey, North Carolina, Texas and Washington one each.
one each. A sedecimal fight was started when Representativo Tinkham, Massachusetts, sought to have written into the reapportionment bill the provision of the constitution which authorizes the house to reduce representation from any state which denies

JOHN M. GOODRICH
or abridges the right to its citizens or of the United States to vote.
He held that several Southern states deny their Negro citizens that right.
Representatives Carrett, Tennessee, Longworth, Ohio, Mondell, Wyoming, and Towner, Iowa, opposed this amendment. Representative Campbell, Kansas, chairman during consideration, told Tinkham he would have another opportunity to make his charge, and the house could be called to act after the apportionment now being authorized should become effective, March 23, 1923.
Representatives Madden and Mann of Illinois were among those who favored the amendment, the Maryland delegation, as usual, saving nothing.
It is worth pointing out that the point of order which killed the Tinkham resolution was made by a Republican Representative Nicholas Longworth of Ohio, son-in-law of the late Roosevelt and another Republican, Frank Mondell, party leader, helped him do it.
This brings to my mind that the Republican party will soon come into power again. I find I can not escape giving consideration to the responsibilities that must, of real necessity, fall to the lot of the Negro leaders in that party. I sincerely hope that Mr. Harding will be able to find jobs for the most of them. If he shall be able to do this for them it might give the other members of the race a genuine chance to think of something besides politics for the next four years. We are sadly in need of a sure-acting Cotton Harvester.

The passage of an anti-lynch law, and provision for a colored regiment with colored officers as a part of the National Guard were recommended in resolutions adopted last week by the West Virginia State League of Colored People. Seventy-five representatives from eighty-five counties were present. Evidently the colored people of West Virginia had this in mind when they elected three colored representatives to the legislature.
AIN'T IT TERRIBLE!!
The Associated Negro Press
Wilson, N. C., Jan. 24.—One dollar and cost was the judgment imposed by Magistrate J. R. Hardy on James Elons, Bill and Edgar Artis, of Black Creek, who took George Moore, white, to a cotton field and gave him a good switching without doing him serious harm, and drove him from the neighborhood.
Moore formerly was a resident of Black Creek but now resides in the Spring Hope section, Nash county.
For several years, he has been living with Melissa. Wilkins, a black woman, who formerly lived in Black Creek. He took her to her father's a few days ago where a dance was given and Moore and she were seen eating together. On Sunday morning, he was taken from her room. Defendan told him that it was not their purpose to violate the law but that they would not stand for "social equality."
PEANUT AND CORN FED
Dublin, Ga., Jan. 27.—M. N. O'Neal, a colored farmer living in Rentz, this county, has just killed four Poland China hogs whose combined weights amounted to 1,286 pounds, with an average age of 18 months. O'Neal has been raising hogs for sometime, and at the Oconee fair held in Dublin, won the first prize for the best display of homemade meat. His hogs weighing 270, 300, 313 and 400 pounds, respectively, were peanut and corn fed.
THE WEEK'S BEST EDITORIAL
"NEW ENGLAND TRADITION"
From the Brooklyn, N. Y. Eagle
Harvard stands by her Negro athletes,
and will simply drop all iden of games of
any sort with Southern colleges which try
to draw the color line. This is in accordance
with the traditions of the Crimson
men, Harvard has held about the attitude
of Andrew, Massachusetts' war Governor,
who said: "I know not what record of sin
awaites me in the other world, but I do
know that I was never so mean as to despise any man because he was poor, because he was ignorant, or because he was black."
THE WEEK'S WORST EDITORIAL
From the Lynchburg, Va. News "THE KU KLUX, PAST AND PRESENT" The modern Ku Klux Klan has adopted a most unfortunate name—unfortunate, because of the memories it recalls and the significance which it once carried. In the days of reconstruction, the Ku Klux Klan performed a service of priceless and imperishable value to the South.
Through methods rendered imperitatively necessary to save Southern civilization from the fate of an inconceivably frightful wreckage, it developed into an unconquerably defensive force and thus earned the deathless gratitude of our people. But a new era has since intervened—the causes leading to the Khan's organization and activities have long since disappeared; the South has passed far beyond the shadows; the perils which used to beset her path have been removed, and in very truth, peace, happiness, self-government are among her secure possessions.
Nor has the South aught by way of apology to offer for the fact that during the immediate post-bellum period, her sons, at times, proceed extra the law or contrary to its mandates with a view of defeating and destroying the monstrous evils incident to the Republican scheme of reconstruction. Confronted with a similar provocation, they would doubtless employ the same weapons of defence.
But "nevertheless bears saying that what was unlawfully done reluctantly, and that if the while the resolve was cherished in this section, that once the Southern states were truly liberated from the conditions which the Republican party sought to establish, would end the objectionable expedients to which their citizens had been absolutely forced to resort.

A HOT SESSION OF THE "HOT STOVE LEAGUE"
Cracker Congressmen Object To The Northerners Saying Too Much About Disfranchise ment In The South
(Congress having under consideration Representative Tinkham's (Mass.) bill to reduce the representation in Congress of those states which disfranchise voters.)
CONGRESSMAN MASON (of Illinois) The question is one of apportionment, apportionment as provided for in the Constitution, which I propose to insert here, and that directs what we shall do under certain circumstances. Whether it amounts to discrimination against a black man or against a woman, there is a certain duty to perform. Let us not be afraid to vote our convictions; give us a chance. To rule this out of order would be a violation of the spirit of the Constitution, which we have sworn to support, and a very strained construction of the rules of the House.
Mr. Chairman, I ask unanimous consent to extend my remarks in the Record upon this subject.
The CHAIRMAN. The gentleman from Illinois asks unanimous consent to extend his remarks in the Record upon this question. Is there objection?
Mr. MADDEN (of Illinois) Mr. Chairman, I make the same request.
The CHAIRMAN. Is there objection.
Mr. BEE (of Texas) Mr. Chairman, reserving the right to object, does the gentleman from Illinois (M. Mason) propose to extend his remarks on the subject of the point of order or upon the general subject matter of the resolution? I think there is no objection to his extending his remarks on the point of order which has been made.
Mr. MASON. I expect to extend my remarks upon the whole proposition.
Mr. ROMJUE (of Missouri) Mr. Chairman, I object.
The CHAIRMAN. The gentleman from Missouri objects.
Mr. ROMJUE. Mr. Chairman. I withdraw the objection.
Mr. LARSEN (of Georgia) Mr. Chairman, I object.
The CHAIRMAN. Objection is made by the gentleman from Georgia.
Mr. MADDEN. Mr. Chairman. I ask unanimous consent to extend my remarks in the Record upon this subject.
The CHAIRMAN. Is there objection?
Mr. LARSEN. I object.
Mr. MASON. In other words, the gentleman does not want us to express our convictions upon this subject?
Mr. LARSEN. Do I understand the proposed extension on the part of the gentleman from Illinois (M. Madden) is to apply to the point of order or—
Mr. MADDEN. My remarks would apply to the point of order and anything incident to the point of order.
Mr. LARSEN. Mr. Chairman, I object. Congressional Record—Jan. 19, 1921.
ONLY FOUR
CABMEN LEFT IN
WASHINGTON
Aged Colored Drivers Relic Of Old Days Before Capital Got Rapid Transit
"Cabbie, mister, Cabbie?" spoke an old colored man perched upon the box in front of his old-fashioned cab on McPherson square. "Will take you home, sah, fo' two hits, sah," he continued faintly.
He was the only cabman to be seen anywhere. It was raining in torrents and taxi-cabs were being called by the dozens at a theatre nearby where a vast audience was dispersing. Bright head lights cast their glow in front of the Army and Navy Club in close proximity. Others whirred rapidly along cross streets.
"Wanta cab, Colonel? This way," again spoke the old man from the gloomy corner of the square where he had apparently been awaiting a belated passenger for hours.
No passenger came; none appeared to he in sight.
This old cabman, with his high silk hat, his elaborate Prince Albert coat bedecked with smooth brass buttons, was one of the four that are left in Washington of days that antedate the automobile, prohibition and woman suffrage.
OLD CABS ALL BUT EXTINCT
The old cabriolet, the victoria and carryall, which once occupied conspicuous places along Pennsylvania avenue, have almost become extinct. Old photographs of the avenue show them standing in front of the hotels, and in groups in the centre of the historic thoroughfare where automobiles are now jammed from early morning until midnight.
Until recent years the old colored cabmen were able to retain their space on the avenue at the southwest corner of Four-
Page
teenth street. As their numbers dwindled their reservation was encroached upon by taxicabs. Finally, death or infirmities of age had reduced their number to six, and they were shunted to a side street near the Treasury Building. A new Administration in Washington was accompanied by complaint about the cab stands in this vignette, and the police authorities, after looking about, for a place where they would be isolated, chose the west side of McPherson square. The number which went there is now reduced to four—just four remnants of the good old days in Washington when the Kentuckian boasted of his mint julep and bade you not to take his word alone for it; days that hark to a full sideboard where hospitality was not betokened by the owl board and gold tipped cigarettes.
One of the old cabmen is "Uncle Sam" Brogden. He has been perched on his seat after sundown asking fares in Washington for fifty years. He says he was a waiter in a restaurant here when Lincoln was President and that the late President Cleveland once hailed him on a warm night and rode with him around Washington when the White House guards thought the President was in his room tolling over executive matters.
Brogden still wears his high hat and long coat with a dignity that echoes back to days when Senators and Congressmen always called a cabbie to go to the Capitol rather than use a street car. In fact, the cabman in ante-bellum days was a necessary factum in Washington and a part of the life of the city.
In the library of Congress are numerous cartoons in which the cab of by-gone days played a part. One represents President-elect Van Buren being drawn to the White House in a cab by President Jackson, while another represents Henry Clay racing to the Capitol with Calhoun, both in cans of the ante-bellum type, to debate on nullification.
CURRENT AND OTHERWISE
Dr. Henry M. Minton, of Philadelphia, is conducting the largest Negro tuberculosis clinic in the country. The term "largest" here simply calls attention to the fact that a young, progressive Negro physician has recognized the need for giving scientific consideration to the ravages the "White Plague" is working among the colored population in the several sections of the country. Tuberculosis is not a Negro disease.
It is a Temperate Zone disease and finds its most healthy breeding places in the large cities of the Temperate Zone. The inclination of the Negro to rush to the large centers of population is one of the general expressions of present day American life. Everybody is doing it. The disinclination of Municipal governments to insist that "Black Belts" should be sane considered genuine factors in whatever is done to maintain decent—and therefore healthy—living conditions in the communities at large, is in destruct degree responsible for the terrific death rate, in the instance of tuberculosis, among city Negro people.
Dr. Minton's effort is the more commendable because he has grabbed the situation by its very throat and has gone about the business of providing a cheek to the further spread of the dread disease among the colored people in the city of Philadelphia. His recognition of his real responsibilities as a physician must be hailed as a sure departure from the purely money-making doctor who is parading his brassy conceit in too any parts of the land. Responsibility is the most impressive presence in modern life. He who does not see this has small chance of permanent life. Dr. Minton is setting a fine example. May he live long and prosper, is my sincere wish.
William Howard Taft is one of the outstanding figures in the life of the American people. Anything he has to say on questions of public moment must be given respectful consideration. He cannot afford to think shallow or to speak lightly. Therefore, it becomes those of us who are sincerely seeking the light which will enable us to see with clear eyes what we need to do to grow and live to carefully weigh what a man of Mr. Taft's position has to say on all questions affecting the public will. We must not do less than this no matter what the temptation to do otherwise. But nevertheless this distinguished American is somewhat too liberal with his stock of gratuitous advice. It is not advice we want, it is co-operation. We want these United States to stay on the map of the world as long as time may stay. We heartily wish to do our part in the making sure that this shall be the ultimate destiny of our native land with all its institutions preserved in full and unquestioned integrity. But everybody, including Mr. Taft, must co-operate—not advise—or else the whole bottom will fall out of the situation.

Sharp criticism of remarks attributed to Dr. Bernard C. Steiner, white, librarian of Enoch Pratt Library. According to Dr. Steiner, the city's large colored population is partly responsible for keeping Baltimore from rank as a book loving city. The city has such miserable library "Baltimoreans don't read books. The city has such miserable library facilities," said one person. Inquiries for books either for recreation reading or for research work, find in many cases that the volume is out or has not been purchased for the shelves. "Librarians in New York, Philadelphia and Boston and other big cities are works of art" declared another, undoubtedly having in mind the famous Holy Grail paintings in the Boston library.
"No person would dare go to Boston without seeing the wonderful library" said another. While in Baltimore, we usually keep visitors away so that they will not see just what poor library facilities we have.
PARIS RECOVERING
FROM WAR ILLS
Rev. Stewart Home From
Abroad Finds All Effects
Of Bombardment
Erased
Paris is gay and her hotels are crowded" according to Rev. C. E. Stewart who returned recently from his tour of the old world.
"The builders have erased nearly all the shell holes made by the "big bertha" and the battle fields are rapidly losing their identities as fields of blood and carnage. This old city where Napolean, and Josephine, Victoria and Antionette, have walked, and where Prussian soldiers and Revolutionists have met in wreaking vengeance, is again trying to become herself in fashion and promenade and opera and supper.
"Recently I visited the haunts of Versailles where the local folks tell willingly of the doings of the Peace Council. I went to the Palace, the room where the treaty was signed, wrote from the same table, sat in the same chair as President Wilson, sat and thought of what it all meant.
1139 In this same palace in the early Fire 1770s, Benjamin Franklin signed a the treaty for the Thirteen colonies which acknowledged their Independence.

Pays Tribute to Colored Teachers
Dr. Arthur Dean Of Cambridge Delcares Miss Maria Baldwin The Best He Ever Had
A fairly good audience attended the first of a series of talks by educational experts, who are making a survey of the city schools, at St. Mary's Hall last Thursday afternoon. Dr. Arthur Dean formerly of Cambridge, Mass., and a vocational expert of Columbia University in New York was the speaker.
In the course of his remarks Dr. Dean paid a high tribute to Miss Maria Baldwin a colored teacher in the Cambridge schools, whom he declare to be the best he ever had. Miss Baldwin, he said was a teacher there but is now a supervisor in the Cambridge schools.
Dr. Dean declared that the only vocational work in the city schools at present in the carpentry typewriting and domestic science courses and urged an "opportunity school" where trades of all kinds could be taught to old and young.
Superintendent West declared that the meetings were open to the public and urged the parents to take advantage of the opportunity to find out what is the condition of their school system.
The second meeting will be held next month.
May Compromise Suit
Suit of Miss Netty King against the Broadway Dental Parlor, white, for $10,000 damages on a charge that they broke the first molar in the lower jaw in an attempt to extract it, may be compromised.
Mrs. King was later treated at Harstern's Clinic where an ex-ray photo was taken of the white dentists work, which will be used at the trial.
John Knox Arrested In North Carolina
John Knox, who is alleged to have shot and killed Henry Brooks at 1003 Argyle avenue on January 8, was arrested in Salisbury, N. C. a few days ago and is now in the City Jail awaiting trial.
The police had vainly scoured the city for Knox, and last week received a tip that he had gone to North Carolina.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN
He was successful there, but went to Charlotte, N. C., in 1906. Work overwhelmed him there, and he became blind from his labors. He gave up the business to have his eyes trenanted, and later went to Washington as the manager for the District of Columbia office of a Richmond insurance company. Five years ago he came to Baltimore and embarked into the business of manufacturing hair preparations. This venture has steadily grown.
If New York authorities can declare that the Ku Klux will not be tolerated there, Baltimore should take similar action according to Mrs. Howard Young, who asked the Mayor's office this week to look into local activities of the Klan.
When asked to what he attributed his business success in Baltimore, Mr. Bishop said: "A generous use of printer's ink in letting the public know what I have."
Mrs. Young represents a strong organization of Womens Suffrage Club, and made a similar appeal Thursday before the white Civic League.
Indeed, Mr. Bishop is one of the heaviest advertisers among colored business folks in Baltimore, and that has made his name and venture widely known. He is a member of Meridian Lodge of Masons and Columbia Lodge of Elks, both located in Washington.
An old subscriber writing from Ohio states that he found a bill for "subscription from 1910 to 1912, and sends in $3 and asks pardon for his long delay.
AUTOS COLLIDE
"Please pardon this woofel negligence" he writes, and pray that an old sinner and reader may begin the New Year right."

While going on Drud Lill Avenue Wednesday the automobile of Captain George W. Brown 2103 Drud Hill avenue, was struck by a machine driven by John Seay, 1100 Riggs Ave. The impact caused the Brown machine to be driven into the lamppost at the northeast corner of Hoffman street. The automobile driven by Seay was badly damaged. No one was injured. Seay was summoned to appear in the Traffic Court Friday for failing to give the right of way.
Over 300 young men, veterans of the world war, are attending the Federal Vocational School at 207-9 W, Franklin street. They are learning various trades and some are taking academic work. There are only about twenty colored men enrolled, however. They, along with a few whites, are grouped together for academic work. Colored and white attend the same trade classes. "I intend to take everything Uncle Sam offers for my advancement." one of the colored students told a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN. "I am only sorry that more of our boys do not take advantage of the splendid opportunities offered us ex-soldiers."

OLD TIMER STILL
ON PENNA. AVE.
Wants Some Of The White Store-
Kerners To Hire Colored
Old Timer was spied by the reporter at the corner of Pennsylvania Avenue and Dolphin street the other day.
"I saw you here last week," said the reporter.
"And you were so downright smart to put me in the paper about what I said," replied O. T.
"Well, you said the things I wrote," the reporter said.
"Well, boy I won't be mad with you, for everything was O. K. Don't you know someone ought to raise a mob about those white storekeepers growing rich off'n the culld folks and never hiring a culld cook."
"I never thought of that," replied the reporter.
"You raise a mob about our boys and girls not getting as good an education as the whites in the high school, and then go to sleep when it comes to giving them a job at using what education they have," snapped O. T.
"I admit my error," replied the reporter.
"Then get busy and have the white proprietors of these dry goods, furniture, shoe and other stores here making their money off'n us hire culld help." Old Timer advised as he ambled off to make further observations.
A bright skin
"Everybody tells me I have soft and smooth. They say I am they had my complexion."
"A bright smooth skin is you seem years younger—and you admiring a woman with a beauty."

"The first package made is many shades lighter. I now use mine, and occasionally massage face, hands, neck and arms at night. No matter how rough, pinch you try Black and White Ointment. All druggists guarantee White Beauty Preparations at 25% the Ointment that contains three packages.
