White Republicans Violate All Precedent By Naming Everybody In Sight To Determine Candidates For Two Lone Federal Jobs.
Washington, D. C., Feb. 22—I took only Sonnet France, Senator Elect Welter, Representatives Zihman, Mudd, Blakeney, Hill, State Clinton Tait and National Committeeman W. P. Jackson, seven men in all, to make up a written state of ten Federal appointments to be made in Maryland during the Harding administration. Then came the big joke.
These seven men named committee of thirty-five colored men who are to meet under the call of Meyer, Evans, Fitzgerald, Lyon, Watty and Harry O. Wilson to select three, and only three candidates for a federal office GUISD Maryland such as the "Recorder of Brooks" the "6th auditor of the Court" and the "Sergeant of the Guard."
No such荒凉 violation of precedence has ever been pulled off in the history of politics as was done in Senator France's office today. This knowledge and hand-picked this information and presented federal candidates.
It is noticed out that those in conference here today, were all holders of some office to which the people have elected them. Consequently, the commissioner, instead of a committee, a committee of colored men, who hold political offices in the city like City Compellence St. Clair, City Warrior, Navy Executive Hall, and Emerson and perhaps the delegates to the national Republican Convention, thirty-five men were named including me, members, desendants of confession under the sun, most of whom have no official connection with the Republican party. These thirty-five men will have some meeting, believe me. In fact, I will have a meeting, in fact a faction, and in general a traverse upon elderly and dignified procedure. Thus do the noble Maryland Republicans, so to speak, take a handful of nominees among a standing assale watch the scramble gleefully.

COOK CAN'T WASTE THE STATE'S TIME
Smarting under discounted treatment from State Superintendent of Education A. S. Cook, white, when he called upon him last Friday in an effort to enlist his support in the movement to provide a new school for the colored people of Catonsville. Hugh M. Burkett, well known real estate dealer, has addressed a letter to the superintendent complaining of the manner in which he was received. Superintendent Cook met him at the outer door of his office and told him that he had no time to talk. When Mr. Burkett said he came to talk, he was told he had nothing to hold, the superintendent allowed to have told him that he would not "waste the State's time" to talk the matter and that he would not "thrill" on the Baltimore County School Board's
Residents of Catoville have been soliciting the question of new building for the past two years. The office since 1932 has been solicited for life indicating their deep interest.

Mr. Turrell told the board that we have to take steps to come down for more other school.
He told the board that 200 children are touch in three frames buildings and in a ball over a steep where a ribbon bites through the wall. He said that the buildings were heated by stoves, that in one at times, the pupils have to go out into the road in order to prevent being suffocated by fire and that he pointed out that three of the buildings are on one side of the Elliott City car line and the fourth on the other.

Race Of Cumberland Youth Is Big Puzzle.
Gonnellsville, Pa.. Feb. 21.—If eighteen year old Riley Mayle's mother is "colored." Riley who is in jail here will be charged with a violation of the Maryland law which prevents intermarriage of the races. He married 13 year old Bertha Marie Clark; white, on December 18 in Cumberland, Md.
If his mother is white, then authorities will hold him for perjury, because he told the marriage license clerk he was 21 years old and the girl who is large for her age, swore she was 18. Either way, White Riley burgesses in jail here, wireless, officers are looking up his mother and sister in Grafton, West Virginia, to find out if they are white or colored, so that the proper charge may be laid against the prisoner.

SPENCER SERVED'ON FREDERICK JURY
First Time In Four Years That Colored Man Was Selected For Poit Jury Service
By Kormit E. Bruner
Prodecik, Md., Feb. 19.—It is no segregated known, not even in Freedonia, but the first time in the past 40 years, a colored man, James W. Spencer, who owns a small farm near Dela, was a member of the Poit Jury. November term of the local Court.
Mr. Spencer served on the Jury during the entire term of 20 days. No unfavorable comment about presence, among his white-colored, the junk box was made at least, in publishing the list of jurors, not mention was made as to race or color, and that is why Mr. Spencer was not given the publicity that was intended when Messrs. Richard Bruce of Hopeland, and Evan Brighton of this city, were drawn on the Grand Jury.
It is quite evident that Judges Ursula Worthington, Worthington, did not intend to draw the "color line" in drawing men for service on the local jury. Several years ago this same tri-unitary declared the to-muniegal, the unchained, the unchained restoring the franchise in 300 or 400 local colored voters.
PASTOR TRIED TO BUY CHURCH IN ANNAPOLIS
Annapolis, Md. Feb. 24. —The question of whether or not a pastor may buy up a note that his congregation owes a bank and then declare that the property is his until death, agitated the minds of the members of the First Colored Baptist Church, on Washington street, in charge of the pastor, Brian McCoy, is alleged, to have placed new locks on the church and buried those out who did not agree with him.
Rev. T. R. Jones, a former pastor from Springfield, Mass., summoned from in charge of Mt. Calvary Baptist Church, and asked to straighten out the tangle. He arrived on Thursday of last week, and at once went to Judge Mussie for advice in the advised him and the trustees to enter the church by way of the basement, but not to tamper with the locks. When they arrived a policeman blocked their way, so the police came and told them the locks were called on, and he reopened his instructions. Then Rev. Jones and the trustees opened the church. Rev. McCoy it is said, sought a told statement that he would be arrested. The curse Rev. McCoy had recently brought from the floor called up and word sent to him to come and not let it. Rev. Jones has mischief at the church this week.
Rev. Alon, D. G. Mckee and J. Searles of Baltimore, representing the Cooperative Baptist Convention, have a few days ago asked the matter. It is suggested that a new pastor will be called.
A for a years ago another master is allowed to have touch the building owned by the church forcing the congregation out of its home.

McRary Ill In Ohio Hospital
Sends Deposition To
Trial
Greensboro, N.C., Feb. 20—The Defense in the trial in United States Court here of the case of Florence C. Varner, white, against her husband, H. B. Varner, white, of Lexington, N.C., for "reasonable subsistence" sprung a surprise when, at the conclusion of the direct examination of Mrs. Varner, during which she stoutly denied ever having any wrongful relations with R. Baxter McRary, a wealthy colored man of Lexington, dismissed the witness from the stand without cross examination. McRary is the man whom Mr. Varner is suing for $100,000 for alleged alienation of his wife's affections.
Anna Muller, a servant in the home of the Varner, was accused of stuffing today Anna Muller testified that she had been in the Varner home for 20 years and that McRary was a friend of hers and that he had visited her a number of times. The covering feature of the trial today was the reading of McRary's deposition. He is now ill in a hospital in Cincinnati. Mrs. Muller denied ever having been intimate with Mrs. Varner, but told of being very friendly with Mr. Muller.
On the night of August 9, 1922 when it is alleged that McKary was pulled from under the Varner home and which resulted in McKary leaving Lexington and Varner habitating suit and suit for 190,600 against McKary, the latter said that as he left the most office in Lexington he saw a light in the kitchen of the Varner home and believing that Anna Miller was up he decided to go and see her about the date on the payment of a note that he entered the yard and went

"ERRAND BOY" LEAVES ESTATE
Frederick, Md., Feb. 22.—Eccentric. Raymond A. (Babe) Lanzoll, who for many years ran errands for Becker's Confectionery and other local stores, died last week leaving an estate consisting of several houses and some thousands of dollars in the bank.
* Knowledge of "Babe" Lansell's wealth, was made known Monday when Jesse W. M, Vernon, and Albert Clifford Davis, three nieces of the deceased and Mrs. Eliza D. Disney an uncle, asked the Orphans Court to revoke letters of administration granted to George W. Helin-
The two white men gave the court bond for $5,000, but the colored relatives petitioned that they are the heirs and are entitled to the management of the property, which was only turned over to Heinlen and Goodell because the Court believed the deceased had no relatives.
Drunk When Wed, He Wants Divorce.
Danville, Va. Feb. 22—Last October John Fulton Wells, white, got drunk, and got married soon afterward. This is his complaint in a petition, to the Circuit Court for a divorce from his wife, Mrs. Lena Shade Wells, who is colored. He avers that, he and his wife went together for some time in Danville, and then to Philadelphia in order to get married where the location of the races is permitted. Mrs. Wells is now in Philadelphia, because the law will not allow them to live here in peace and harmony.
For these and divers other reasons, Wells declares, and especially since absence from his brown-kinned wife has made his heart grow cold, he respectfully asks the court for a divorce. It is believed here that the Court will grant Wells' request with assurance.

Feb. 23.—Mr. Gilpin announced today that he had definitely accepted the invitation of the Drama League to be one of, its ten honored guests at the McAlai Hotel March 6th. He will also attend the dinner of the Civic Club.
New York. Feb. 24.—(Special) Charles S. Gilpin, colored actor, who is playing the leading part in the "Emperor Jones" with the Provincetown Players, all of whom are white, at the Princess Theater here is the centre of many storms. Gilpin has been the rage of New York's stage, and white critics have fallen in love with the greatest sensation the season. In the ballet under the direction of the Drama League, white, Mr. Gilpin easily won, a place as one of the year's ten best contributors to dramatic art.
With the announcement that as one of the honored ten, he would be invited to the big dinner of the Lord in Leeds, he would be invited to the first book and several acts from the South announced their intention not to attend. Outside as many from the North also declared they would not the present unless they were invited to the ten guests of honor, asked the League to invite the Gilbin. Gilda Varesi, white, one of them telegraphed, with two others, for permission to sit beside Gilbin at the reception of Gilbin. I will with me mourn to sit beside him. She added, "If there is any place on earth where race ought not be considered, it is in the Church and the Church is sinless, and race ought not to make any difference."

Famous Chicago Jurist Laughs At
Congressional Fuss And Tells
Ex-soldier To Come Back
Chicago, Ill., Feb. 18—Laughing at attacks made upon him in Washington recently because he temporarily released the 19-year-old bank teller, Francis J. Carey. Judge Landis disposed of two burglary cases yesterday in a shattered fashion in the U.S. District Court. "First of all Judge Landis let off Robert J. Green, white, who admitted to jewelry out of the parcel nest, because Green's wife is soon to become a mother," "Take your wife and go home, and a month after your child is born come back here, the Judge declined and accused you of stealing." Next came John W. Fleming, a colored substitute carrier in the post office, before the Judge on the charge of taking a number of registered letters containing money. Two letters, "blasted" by Government inspectors, had trapped him.
"Your honor, honor, John K. Madison, Assistant United States District Attorney, I have Florea K. Henderson, a distinguished woman in the show in France. He was in all the terrible actions with the old Eighty Eleight Illen Repent. He enlisted in 1916 and served in the border trouble. May God bless him. "Military achievements give a man no license to stand," broke in Judge Leviis, leaning over and shaking his finger. And, then, once more he punished "with the length of tread," said the Judge of tread. "This is another hard job for me—very hard. Notice the Marshal in two weeks—then come back. Fleming. You understand? In two weeks." In two weeks.

ANNOUNCEMENT Extraordinary!!
That Baltimore's leading colored Motion Picture Theatre, the Rainbow, will change its policy beginning Monday, February 28th.
It is the management's utmost desire to give the colored people of Baltimore the best of Motion Pictures obtainable, therefore the management wishes to announce that it is abolishing the vaudeville and will make the RAINBOW a straight picture house where one is not afraid to bring his mother, wife, sweetheart, or child, as nothing vulgar will be seen. It was always a saying amongst the colored theatregoers "that if you want to see a good picture you, will have to go to the Rainbow." Therefore by eliminating the Vaudeville the management will spend many times as much for pictures and the public can well be assured of seeing only the best first run pictures of any colored house in Baltimore at the Rainbow.
We wish to call your attention to two big pictures which we have week of Feb. 28th. Monday and Tuesday, "NOBODY'S CHILDREN," a picture of great interest which has a cast composed of all colored players, and Wednesday and Thursday "GO AND GET IT." This great picture opened up Baltimore's Million Dollar Theatre "The Rivoli." This is positively a wonderful picture and we advise you not to miss it. This alone is enough to convince the motion picture followers that the management will spare no expense in order to give the public the best in pictures there is. We also want to make it clear that our admission starting Monday, Feb. 28th will be MATINEE 11c, NIGHT 15c, which we assure is very popular for the kind of pictures we offer. Accompanying the feature will be shown a 2 reel comedy or a News of interest. Here are some of our big features coming—Constance Talmadge in "DANGEROUS BUSINESS;" Pauline Frederick in "MADAME X;" "THE WOMAN IN ROOM 13;" Clara Kimball Young in "MIDCHANNEL;" Pearl White in "THE TIGER'S CUB;" Douglass Fairbanks in "THE MARK OF ZORO;" and many others top numerous to mention, will follow.
Our reputation alone stamps us ahead of the rest in photo plays.

WITH HARDING
(Continued from Page 1)
comedy; which is never the case in such plays.
St. Augustine, Florida, where he held an important conference yesterday with President - elect Harding. When asked concerning the conference Dr. Moton said:
"The-play in its entirety is uninstructive, degrading and does not conform to history nor geography in its plot or setting. The author sets his plot in the West Indies on some cannibal, island and proceeds to depict a tribe so ignorant that they permit a lone Englishman to live down there among uneducated natives, to the arrival of a man of their own race at once make an attempt on his life with pistol fire.
"The interview had no point significance. In company with white men, I went to tell Harding something of the movement for integration, the organization, which has which is gaining strength every day. Mr. Harding expressed himself as being in warmest sympathy with the work of the Inter-race Commission, which is helping to bring about understanding and helpful co-operation between the races and the members of the party which impressed with the President-elect's earnestness and sincerity."
"By some peculiar chance the bullet misses and the natives believing the strangle Negro to possess a charmed life proclaim him Emperor. This Negro is an American who had worked as a Pulman ponter in the States; and who, having committed a crime, fled to the West. Indies. In the entire play the word "Nigger" is used, about fifty times. The phrases "Monkey character," "black trash," "black heathen" and other disgusting and degrading cullets are employed.
It is understood that after Dr. Moton and members of the party had spoken frankly concerning some of the handicaps to thorough understanding between the race, the South and the efforts which representative parties colored people are putting forth to remove them. Mr. Moton plunged freely into the discussion and expressed his appreciation of the remarkable agreement which the Negro has made along all lines since connection, as well as his desire to help and encourage this progress.
"Nowhere in the entire play is the Negro made to feel that he is capable of resettleable behavior or high attainments. One might see the play all one's life and not gather anything sensible, from seeing it. The play seems to have been intended by its author, press the Negro and others that any independent leadership developed by the Negro could only be immensely benefited from the field's competencies and ignorances and not capable of respect or education.
The Southern white man who accommi-
dated Dr. Moton warg Dr. W.
W. Alexander of the Inter-racial
Commission. Atlanta. Georgia; Dr.
M. Ashleigh Jones, pastor of Poor
de Leon Baptist Church. Atlanta.
Ga.; John J. Eggan, banker and
manufacturer. Atlanta. Ga.; and
T. Wooller, Jr., Phiisps-Stokes
Food New York City.
"Mr. Glimpin's first speech takes up about forty-five minutes of the play, and as 'Emporer Jones' is made to speak the most ignorant, improper and ungrammatical English, and to use such, humorous and humiliating words about his race, he is questionable whether Irish Jew, Irishman or clap might be found to render such a characterization of his race."
He coloured members of the
priest in addition to Dr. Morton, were
Wesley Logan, Treasurer, Tuskegee
Institute and A. L. Holsey,
Secretary to the Principal, Tuskegee
Institute.

Sullivan formerly lived in Seaford, Delaware, and sometime ago received $30,000 insurance from the U.S. Government for his three sons. Four years later, he was sent from his sleep by two men shaking his shoulder and demanding his money, when he escaped and fled to his front yard, he found four members of his gang. Four months later, he confessed to the hiding place of $50.00.

At the Baltimore, County School Board turned down the petition for a new colored school this year, Mr. Burkett carried the matter to State Superintendent Cook, who wrote to Mr. Burkett's letter follows:
"Dear Sir: Two years ago I had an interview with you relative to the colored school at Catsville. That interview was a banner for me, a banner "was so impressive that I felt that the people of Catsville had a friend at court.
"Today I called upon you for two reasons. I was because of the courteous attention in former interviews. Secondly, because I felt that I could talk to you frankly and freely and that your eminent position in educational affairs made me seek your advice and alvies.
"I was much hurt and embarrassed by your attitude today, as well as surprised that you were state that you could not speak up to me discussing a matter of education."
"May I not feel that you were probably irritated by some matter prior to my call, and that you still welcome the helpful co-operation of any and all of you, better the educational conditions of each and every section of the state?
"Upon reflection I trust that you will feel that an interview relative to any school in the state is inouting of all the authorities of any county Commissioners, and that the duties of your new position are not so arduous as to shut without the pale of your sympathy any school in the State—however humble."

Jorge Springs and a player game at forward, including was the best ever in the double play. B. Thompson will be center. Nellie Brennan got in the game at guard, stopped up well.
In the preliminary game the varsity girls defeated the Corollia 15 to 7. The visitors are continued highly during the rest of the game.

Reference. Barr.
* The stage is all set for the season's biggest basketball classic Tuesday night, at the Richmond Market Armory, when the Athenian Blue and Gray Machine will lock horns with the "Forty" Club of Chicago.
The visitors have really a wonder five, being the undisputed Western champions and have yet to lose a game this season. They have bowled over all their opponents in easy fashion. The "Forty" Club boasts of no stars, using the very effective five man system of plays. Their defensive tactics cause the opponent much worry, and as a result very few baskets have been counted against them. Their two guards, Winters and Hubbard are shooters who will surprise, and always keep the forwards busy feeding them the ball. "Soil" Batter, the world's champion broad jumper and Olympic star, together with Bluntt form the forward combination. They are known for their accuracy, being long distance shooters as well as sure shots near the basket. The local guards will find much to do in holding these in play, and in a finished play, knows his position, is full of tricks, and is undoubtedly one of the best floor men ever developed in the West.
The locals are in the best of simps, and will bond every effort to avenge the defeat given them in Chicago. They will present a changed line-up, that seems to be the best ever. The new pivot, man Tibbs, former Howard University Star is a clever all around player, using effectively at all times his own peculiar individual style of play. Local enthusiasts will watch Tibbs with interest. "Scrappy" Brown, a rover, will be found at forward, which seems to be his position. In the last two games he has played brilliantly. "Ey' Butler, his running mate, is enjoying his banner yee. He is accurate and can shoot any angle. Nocal Kice gives a defensive strike, while his opponent worry all times. He is shooting better than ever, getting three baskets in the recent Vandal game at Atlantic City. Cant, Lyles, has shown up well in practice this week and will be found in the game at all times. "Bill Harris, who never fails, will not start the game, but will be on the sidelines ready for any emergency." "Kee" Wright is gradually getting in trim, school work having kept him out of the game until the first of this month. Fred Shade and "Wes" Hammond will be ready to jump in the game at a moment's notice.
No preliminary game will be played. Promptly at 9 o'clock the referee will start what should be one of the best games ever played on a local floor. The Athenian Blue and Gray Machine was given a royal welcome in Chicago, lets give Sol Butler and the "Forty" Club a rosing greeting.

During the course of the game Sol Butler, forward of the "Fory" Club, may demonstrate some of his broad jigpup tactics.
Local enthusiasts will see "Scrappe" Brown for the first time in his new position, at forward.
* Capt. Richardson of Howard, is undoubtedly one of the best forwards ever developed at that institution. He made half his teams points in the Hampton game.

Athenian Girls and, Oriole Girls are tuning up for the first game of their championship series to be staged in the "Y" Gym on Saturday night, March 5th.
Johnny Johnson, Columbia University's really clever forward does the bulk of the work for his team, and did much in helping to defeat Yale last week. He shoots all the goals from the 15-foot mark. He ranks fifth thus far in the intercollegiate basketball standing.
When the-"Forty" Club is shooting fouts, here's hoping the roosters will remain, just as quiet as they do when the locals are shooting. We stand for good sportsmanship always, and let's not forget. Courtesy is always due visitors.

The Athenian Girls and the

be staged in the "Y" gym Saturday
night, March 5th.
The teams are two of the best ever developed in the city, local enthusiasts have seen both in action this season and the consensus of opinion is, they are even balanced. Both have shooters of ability, and an almost impregnable defense. Both coaches predict one of the tightest guarding games ever seen in female ranks.
The Athenian Girls played the Carlisle Girls of Washington to a standstill here. Juju Xinha not only lost, Orcio have not played any teams to strength in a local court this season, but judging from the easy manner in which they disposed of the Pittsburgh Girls last friday night, they appear to be in grand shape.

The Athienian Arrows for the second time this season lowered their colors to the fast settlers in Washington last Friday night to 38.2.
The Arrows started off with a rush counting eight points while the Settlers had none. Once Trigg and his cann got started they were never to be over taken. The Arrows fought a stubborn game in the first half in showing a change of pace that completely balled the Washingtonians, but just before the game the defense crashed and the settlers found the going easy. Saker scored three baskets from the net.
Trigg and Tremons played best for the settlers, the latter getting seven double-deckers. Trigg played a wonderful play game, being in almost every play. He became too over anxious, and was put out of the game by personal fights. Trigg would not be stopped by Ritch and Kellar and in the second half almost shot at will.

The cornerstone of the community house of Sharp Street Memorial M. E. Church was laid Tuesday afternoon with impressive services.

Owing to the bad weather the speech-making took place inside the church. The invocation was by Rev. Charles W. Baldwin, white. Rev. M. J. Naylor, pastor of the church, told of the efforts of the M. E. Church to educate the colored people of the South and asserted that the same broad gunked spirit actuated the denomination in the coronary movement. Rev. most W. F. McDowell as "the man most responsible for the election of two colored bishops at the last M. E. General Conference.
Bishop McDowell said that the big century movement was really the result of the missionary efforts of John Stewart, colored, who was converted a century ago and then started out to do missionary work among the Indians.
He colonized George Washington and praised the ideals for which he stood and asserted that while the colored people may be patient that they were not fatigued treat, but that the Methodist Church stood defiant and irresponsible 1974 the rights of men. He praised the community house as an institution for the saving of lives of men and women.
W. Ashleigh Hawkins delivered an address in which he pointed out the bond between the Masonic fraternity and the church.
A collection of $1,200 was lifted for the community house, which will cost $75,000. A copy of the AFFQO-AMERICAN was among the things placed in the corner.
The community house has been one of the pet projects of Dr. Taylor for some time, and is the outgrowth of various welfare agencies and organizations. He has been pastor at the church for nine years and has succeeded in winding up a mortgage indebtedness of about $25,000. The church was recently beautified throughout at cost of $5,000. He is a native of Frederick County and was educated at Super College, Morgan College and Howard University. He has held various positions and interned several M. F. General Conferences as one of the representatives from the Washington Conference.

Public Service Commissioner May
So Rule in Complaint of Mrs.
S. M. Blackwell
Complaint of Mrs. S. M. Blackwell of 1997 McCallah street that she was ejected from Bus of the United Railways from Charles street in front of the Hah on Saturday of last week will receive an early ruling from the Public Service Commission.
Inquiry at the office of the Commission revealed the fact that the Commission did not know that the city limousy buses has a general policy of refusing to carry colored passengers. Under the law all common carriers must carry passengers who present themselves and pay fare. General Manager Flowers of the United Railways told the APRO-AMERICAN that there was no rule of the company where which colored passengers were excluded, and that he would make a statement on charges for the Public Service Commission in a few days.
'Mrs. Blackwell with her six year old daughter entered the bus, paid her fare, and was about to take a sea when the driver insisted on giving her fare back, declaring 'we don't haul colorful passengers.' Rather than have the driver put his hands on her to effect her, Blackwell alighted and the will will. She consulted the lawyer, and wrote a complaint to the Public Service Commission, as the first step.

There is a woman in the world who

knows the address of the woman.
There were 23,000 people who took their own lives last year. In one day 115 persons, men, women and children, committed suicide. The children were under 15 years of age.
It is not the one touch of nature that worries us, it's the soft, delicate touch of the friend with a yearn in his voice.
Between five and six hundred unemployed men are being fed each day free of charge at Elys Memorial Church in Buffalo, New York. The menu consists of soup, white bread and such other articles of food as are donated. Christ not only prescribed but he fed five thousand.
The Texas legislature may refuse to pass the workingman's minimum wage law because it guarantees at least $12 per week to men and women, black, white and Mexican alike. Listen to this, the Federation of Labor is working FOR the bill.
The whole country is an expectant mood. For one week from today Warren Gamaliel Harding will be Inaugurated President of the United States.
to make his inaugural address will be their guide as to his attitude toward the solution of various questions. The readjustments made necessary by the world war, the settlement of our stand on the issues arising out of the treaty of Versailles, foreign and domestic, financial and social problems are among the questions of general import. To 14,000,000 colored citizens the supreme questions will be disfranchisement in the south, the stoppage of the lynching evil, the invocation of "Jim Crows" and the right of colored citizens to hold public office. If these problems are attacked in the right spirit, then will the hearts of 14,000,000 citizens be made glad, because eight years Wilsonism have undone much of the good work done for and by them since the Civil War, and have also allowed the Southern Democrats to show their Negrophobia in dealing with the republics of Liberia and Africa.
A SUPERINTENDENT OF COLORED SCHOOLS
and the School Board will soon take up the question of appointing an assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools lead to the belief that action of this nature is contemplated in the near future. As a means of interpreting the parents and the teachers to the administration, an official of this nature has long been needed in the system, which has sugered lamentably from the present hit or miss method. Schools are run at present FOR colored people, not BY them, and the colored people of Baltimore have as much say in determining the character and type of the education of their children as they have of determining the same features of the schools for children of Philadelphia.
The appointment o-f an assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools will at least give the teaching force an official mouthpiece, and the AFRO-AMERICAN believes that the present school administration can be trusted to see that this is done. Such an assistant superintendent must first of all have the confidence of the three hundred teachers in colored schools; he must be a leader who can inspire others to work with him; and he must have the training and the experience necessary to lift the local schools from the rut into which they have fallen. It is no easy job that faces the Board's choice for this new position. Such a person, whether he can be found in the city, or imported from elsewhere, can be promised the united support of parents and teaching body.
HEROES AND VALETS
The old saying that "no man is truly a hero to his valet" ought to be changed to its modern equivalent—"No man can be a hero when his wife sues for divorce." The Honorable Marcus Carvey, head of the Black Star Line of Steamships, Negro Factory Corporations, Universal Negro Improvement Association etc., is the latest example of this adage. As an organizer, Mr. Carvey is the peer of any business mind in the country, and under the compelling power of his eloquence and logic, four millions of colored people here and abroad have joined his various organizations. Before the bar of public opinion, he met various challengers of his right to rule, and they fell under his chariot wheels. He appears even to have emerged a victor in his recent tilt, verbal of course, with Dr. W. E. B. DuPois, editor of the Crisis.
Then while at the pinnacle of his popularity, Mrs. Garvey sued for divorce, and straightway Mr. Garvey-puts off his heroic garb and becomes intensely human. Mrs. Garvey claimed that her husband earned enough to pay her an allomyn of $75 per week. She said that his salary from his various activities netted $18,000 a year. Contradicting his better half, Mr. Garvey is reported to have fixed his salary as $25 a week.
If Mr. Garvey is not getting $18,000 a year in salary from managing the various organizations of which he is head, he ought to be, for he is earning every cent of it, and a laborer is worthy of his hire. Also he will have a hard time convincing folks that he is only receiving $25 per week. But considering the conditions under which this statement was made, he is more to be pitied than scorned.
DID HE OR DIDN'T HE
The Associated Press sends out the information that Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Alabama, appeared in Florida before president-elect Harding to urge the appointment of a Southern white man to a cabinet position. Lacking confirmation of this statement and knowing the tendency of the Associated Press to muddle most of its news articles concerning colored people, Dr. Moton's friends, as well as his enemies, will do well to reserve judgment.
The fact remains that Dr. Moton and party consisting of three white and three colored persons, all Southerners interviewed the president-elect to discuss conditions in the South, and that some member of this party urged the appointment of a Southerner to the new cabinet. Whether Dr. Moton joined in this appeal is the question at issue.
Mr. Harding has not taken office yet, and it would be too bad, if at this early date Dr. Moton should "spill the beans." For the past eight years, the South has had practically all the members of the cabinet, and every other official appointive position that was not nailed down. With these Southerners in power, did they do anything to stop lynching, to help the work of education and progress for the common people white or black in the South? Did they give any black Democrats jobs?
It seems to us that the Democrats are not satisfied with holding down positions when they are in power, but they are greedy enough to want some of the spoils in a Republican administration.
Mr. Harding has too much wisdom to put any man in the cabinet because he comes from the South, and most of all his friends in black ought to have too much.

addition to the Negro education, the annual
report of the Board pays this tribute to the
teachers in colored schools.
"The general salary situation in Negro colleges and universities, which had always involved severe hardship, became in consequence of the war intolerably bad. In a group of 100 students, a strong religious organization, and for this reason distinctly above the average, the salaries of women teachers ranged from $250 to $550 per annum, while the salaries for men ranged from $180 to $2,000 per annum, the latter figure being reached by only one or two persons.

North had to be met. Only those who have a first-hand knowledge of internal conditions in schools and colleges for Negroes can realize the spirit of supreme devotion to the Negro race on the part of both white and colored teachers that has kept these institutions alive. It is pleasant to be able to state that in all white and teachers'Negro colleges and colleges not one word of complaint or self-pity was heard by the officers of the General Education Board. Indeed, on one occasion when the officers of the Board suggested the possibility of an increase in salary for the benefit of some of the older teachers in one of the Negro colleges, the men concerned declined to take advantage of it, waiving the proposed increase in favor of the younger and still worse paid members of the staff."
Two thing about Mr. Rockefeller's gifts ought to be noted. First these two millions are given to colleges and medical schools, northern philanthropy and Southern bourgeon have been willing to give to Hampton and Tuskegee, which emphasizes industrial training, but have turned their backs on colleges, secondary, and teacher training schools, which have been put up largely by Missionary Soil and Churches.
Mr. Rockefellows aid in this direction are the first and most substantial gifts in the history of the nation.
Secondly there was no string attached to the two millions of dollars He did not turn the money over to the Board to be used for the higher education of white children, but for higher education of American children, and therefore the report states; "Mr. Rockefellows gift was designed to benefit all schools regardless of color."

Three Mississippi men, superintendents of a big lumber mill at Sumrall, have been assessed $10,750 by a jury after conviction on a charge of having thrown rotten eggs at an organizer for the State federation of labor, who sought to organize Negroes employed by the lumber company. While the jury held that the lumber company was not responsible as a corporation for damages, the verdict was returned against the superintendents as individuals.
This case is a counterpart of scenes of others that are becoming too common in this country. The spirit of intolerance which controls so many persons finds expression in acts of violence against those who do or say things contrary to their views.
The mob spirit is manifested in nearly every case where there is a strike, and often it reaches its climax in toll of life. Passion will sometimes stop short of nothing to find an outlet in deeds that never fail to bring shame and loss.
Many individuals who prate loudest of personal liberty may be found among those persons who are quick to deny to others the liberty they claim for themselves. When they cannot win by argument, they resort to the methods of the cave man and demonstrate that they have not advanced far in intelligence from their remote ancestors.
When juries and judges act to protect citizens against violence, they are not doing more than is required of them under the laws of any state. It is a dangerous thing to permit the mob spirit to find expression in attacks upon others, even in the somewhat mild form of throwing state eggs.

THE WEEK'S WORST EDITORIAL
Arthur Brisbane, the well-known editor and philosopher is of the opinion that amalgamation is to be the final outcome of all racial difficulties, and that the last great race will be white, which he claims, should satisfy everyone. His opinion is:
"The white men are going to rule the earth, because they are a little nearer to civilization than the other colors. Not brown men, dr yellow men, or black men, or the hairy Alinus that once owned Japan, are destined to rule. Black, white, yellow and brown will disappear and go thru their later incarnations in white skins. And that ought to suit them, just as it suits the white rulers now to be rid of the red hair, projecting jaws, and the great canine teeth that once marked them all."
To the Editor:
As a taxanner, permit me space to record a VITAL FACT abstracted from Dr. Walter P. Sowers contention which is made public in the Baltimore American of February 16, 1921, page 4, regarding the "questionaire and method employed" by which certain men are given positions under guise of "examination" conducted by this newly created City Service Commission of Baltimore. The Bible says, "I have eyes but they see not, not a percent of the American not AWARE that under garb of millions of Dollars in that garb of TRICK-SCHEME has been desired and is being pushed and executed systematically with the intent that the majority of the people will be ruled by CHARITY MAGNATES through their local clan. THIS TRICK-SCHEME is being introduced quickly and cleverly in states and cities throughout the country. The method is imperialism in its worst forms. Beware! It arranges the Rich against the Middle Class and the Poor; Criminal against Labor; Merk against Industry; under the scheme revealed by Sowers' assertion that the City Service Commission based its certified list of clibies was NOT AN EXAMINATION". The questions are evidence proof that the Monster of Favorism has superseded Morit. This scheme of injustice savers danger; for windows national cataclysm. Bolshievism and will REACT like all other AGENTS of INJUSTICE. The earlier it is curved the better it will be for all concerned. Philosopher

Dean George William Cook Not To Retire From Howard University
Your note to Dean George William Cook asking if you quoted Dr. Durkee correctly, or not, is referred to me by Dean Cook.
Ma' I say that in my address to the Baptist ministers of Washington, I in no way mentioned Dean George William Cook. The President-was speaking of a Professor Cook in the School of Religion. He'd not mention the school of which Dean George William Cook is head, nor state any facts or any suggestions that would lead one to make the mistake in supposing that Dean George William Cook was intended.
I am very sorry for the misunderstanding that has gone forth and hope you will correct it in the largest way possible.

WANT PLACE IN CABINET
New Yorkers Write Hardling Thin Colored Man. Should Be Secretary
A letter asking that a Negro be appointed to a position in the Cabinet was sent to President Warren G. Hardling by the Bronx and Manhattan Non-Partisan Citizens' Union. The letter polite.
"This association hereby desires to request your consideration of a colored man for a member of your Cabinet.
"I realize that to some this request will appear paradoxical and that to others it may seem impossible for you to appoint a colored man a member of your official family, but justice knoweth no brother, and who can contend the Negro, by ability, loyalty and sacrifice, is not entitled to a place in the council of this union. It is always expedient to do justice, and I am sure that this matter may have your mention."
"Today the 12,000,000 colored citizens of this country are represented by no position of honor or enmity in this Government. Is the door of opportunity always to be closed to them? If not, who will dare to open it?"
The letter is signed by Eugene McIntosh, president of the union.

Stephen Graham (White) Finds That Black People Will Have Black Dolls, Black Amethyst And A Black Cedar

It was also at Southern Brum that, calling on Reverend Williams, I happened upon this singular conversation:
"Now, isn't it absurd for us to have white angels?"
"You surely would not like them black?" #
"We give Sunday-School cards to our children with puppets on them." It's wrong.
"Black angels would be angry."
"No more ugly than white."
I thought the whiteness of the angels was as the whiteness of white light which contained all color. That, however, was lost on the reverend, who happened to be a realist.
Christ himself was not white. He would have had to travel in for him. "Crew car?" said he, but yourself: isn't it absurd for us to be taught that the good are all white, and that sin itself is black?"
"It does seem to leave you in the shade," said I.
"Expression such as 'black as sin' ought to be deleted from the language. One might as well say 'white as sin'."
I was cramped, rapidly.
"We are 'pale as canry' he retorted. 'Why should it be black?'
"Black spite," he retorted. "Why should it be black?"
"Then Adam and Eve in the Garden," he went on, "are always shown as beautifully white creatures, whereas, considering the climate, they may well have been as dark-skinned as any Negro couple in Alabama. Babylon was built by Negroes." "What would you have Adam and Eve painted, black?"
"Why, yes, I would."
This struck me as rather diverting, but, it was quite serious. Later, in New York one night at Liberty Hall, before I was driven out as a white man, he hear an oration of Negroes, saying, "What ask you, is God always shown as white? It is because He is the white man's God. It is the God of our masters. (Yes, brothers, that's it.) Its the God of those who persecute and despise the colored people. Brothers, we've got to knock the door down." We've got to rewrite the Old Testament, and the New from a black man's point of view. Our theologians must get busy on a black God."
LINK JOHNSON WON'T RESIGN
In Letter To Ben Davis Declares He Does Not Want To Be Minister To
1461 S. Street, N. W. Washington, P. C. Feb. 15, 1921. Mr. B. J. Davis, 200 Auburn Avenue, Atlanta, Georgia. My dear Fen:
You advise me that the newspapers in Georgia carry a story that I am to be made Minister to Hayt at ten thousand dollars a year and to resign as National Committeeman.
Tell to every friend of ours, and to the whole world, that such is not the fact. I was elected National Committeeman by the electorate of the State of Georgia, and he specifically that I might function as such. I shall never accept as a member of the Republican National Committee, so help me God, I shall never accept an appointment that shall take me out of the United States. I shall never accept any position, however loaded with flattering enoluments, that will interfere in the remotest, with my functioning as National Committeeman. I expect to so conduct myself, with faith in God and loyalty to the Republicans of the State of Georgia and to my Place, that next elect time I shall be made the National Committeeman of Georgia.
God has brought me back from the shadows of the grave to do the work of an evangel in fighting against the terrorism that has tormented the souls of my poor, downtrodden people, and, if necessary, I can live without public office, for when I am hungry, I can go back, and choose whom I am trying to serve, for my daily bread. God bless us all, and pray that through this crisis we all may fight like valiant soldiers against any new-failed change from the ancient history and tradition of the Republican Party as laid down by Lovejoy, by Greeley, by Summer and glorified by Frederick Douglas. You can make such use of this letter as to you may seem best.
Humbly.

Supposed Preacher Caught With "Hootch" Gets Off
Danville, Va., Pilot, Foh.21—Two prohibition officers visited the home, of a well-known preacher in Mercer County the other day in search of moonshine whiskey. When informed of the object of their visit the preacher devoutly raised his eyes to heaven and exclaimed: "Oh, Lord, Thou knowest there is no moonshine in my home except for Thy cause." This did not deter the officers, who proceeded with the investigation and unearthed two productive bottles of whiskey held back of a shelf. The Rev. Doctor was at once arrest, and taken before Madistress Cook, of Matoaka, who gave him a stiff fine and jail sentence.
The good pastor immediately announced that he was able to pay the fine, but that owing to the fact that he had a revival going on in Rock District with scores of penitents every night at the altar, it could not be reasonably thought that he would be able to serve the fall sentence. There were dozens of penitents declared, and unless he was to be saved, he deceived, and unless he was there to carry on the meetings, these men would be eternally damned with no possible escape from the lower regions. The time was ripe to pluck them from the eternal burning, and if he was forced to serve the fall sentence, "de good Lawd" would hold de man responsible what sent him there."
Magistrate Cook, a preacher himself, suspended the jail sentence.
It is about time that Maryland should be represented by an official appointment in Washington. The last Marylander to fill an important post in Washington was Frederick Douglass, who was Marshall of the District of Columbia, Minister to Haytl, and Register of the Treasury during the reconstriction, and who at that time regarded Angostura as his residence.

Begin now on the most gripping serial you have ever read.
In the Year of our Lord 2220, Negroes of the United States competed so body with the whites that business that mutual segregation was agreed to and the colored people were given a state in the South for themselves.
Here they built up a strong government which after a while was powerful enough to defeat the United States in open warfare. Victory came to the black soldiers from the use of the new invention of the rifle which used centrifugal force and required no exfoliage.
As a result of the conflict the black people, former American Negroes demanded that the United States pay the transportation back to Africa, and 1,000 vessels were used for this purpose. In Africa the former black Americans set up a government, which is nevertheless the most peace loving and orderly, powerful in the world.

He turned to one of the boxes of plates and removing one inserted into the stereoscope, as I must call it, in default of a better name.
"From a dictionary of the time," he said curtly, and I saw the following definition on the plate before me.
"Screecher. A term of opprobrium applied by their opponents to a body of women who maintain that, excepting superficial differences of physique and women are essentially the same, and that their duties and functions in life, with the single exception of those concerning the continuation of the species, should be identical. Being mostly composed of sterile women or spinsters the sex is gradually dying out."
"Well," I said, as I drew a deep breath, "that seems a little unfair to a lot of rather estimable women, so far as I knew anything about them."
CHAPTER XIII
THE GREAT EXPULSION
As no reply was forthcoming to this remark, I broached the last thing I happened to have in mind to make inquiry about, and that was my guide's passing remark about "the great expulsion." And so I asked about that. Upon this question the librarian was more fluent, and evidently looked upon the subject one of superior importance.
"Early in the twentieth century," she began, "China began to stretch her huge body and yawn as she awoke from her long sleep of about two thousand years. During this sleep she had damed that she was the celestial kingdom, specially favored by the gods, the happy nation secure and contented." She was the most ancient nation in the world and had maintained her integrity longer than any other people that had ever seen the face of the earth. From this sleep and this oplaint dream she was
"There is hardly time to enter into details," was the reply, "but the startling point of the decay was financial difficulties. Your people and all the white peoples, in their anxiety to possess the earth, and each nation for itself, had piled up enormous debts, impossible of payment, and they all eventually found themselves plunged into bankruptcy. Immense wealth, which was wrested from the earth by the toilers, was squandered and dissipated by the upper classes and the governments in all kinds of reproductive enterprises and personal luxury and extravagance. The pro-
er boundaries. And then, about the middle of the twentieth century, to the consternation of all the foreign nations who had flourishing colonies at various points upon Chinese territory, they received one day simultaneous notice to withdraw from the country altogether. All of the Europeans, who were a good deal handicapped by their immense distance from their base of supplies, had expected that Japan would be the monkey to pull their chestnuts out of the fire, but to their astonishment she held herself also having, in the afterward assertion of her understanding of China an extensive set of operations that were to continue into an indefinite future, a perpetual treaty, to speak, inviting, as it afterward appeared, worldshaking consequences. So they were left to their own devices and after a few battles and skirmishes on land and sea, they were all forced to leave and were magnanimously allowed by the reigning monarch to take everything portable with them. After this uncomfortable experience, as may well be imagined, the whites were the clue of intercession with the nation which had now become so powerful and they were satisfied to retain their commercial relations with her and with Japan, without any further attempts to exercise any form of administrative or financial control wither borders.
"And this status lasted for above a hundred years. China having entered the family of nations, and, through extremely jealous of her own rights, conducting herself with the most amiable consideration for the rights of others. Indeed one or two of the white nations, less treacherous and reverentful than the others naively confessed that they had learned from China many things greatly to their advantage. After some hundreds of years the civilization of the whites, which had for a long time been evidently decaying, began to be in a pervious condition. Great changes had taken place in the relations of the European peoples, some nations plain indications here and there of a release into barbarism. This was especially so in the United States of had disappeared, died out or been absorbed by others, and there were America, which retained the old title although it had long since become an empire."
"Exuse me for interrupting you," I said, "but I am curious to know and unable to understand how my nation could ever have fallen back into barbarism. If it it not too much to ask of you, could you not tell me?"
produced, for when the mad orgy was over, it was found that not a single man or woman was left in Europe or America who understood the construction of a machine, the principles of the battery, or the manufacture of any instruments of precision. The entire foundation of your present social regime had ben swept away, and there was nothing left but a huge multitude of ignorant or, half-educated men, who had never been far removed from savagery, with sturdy bodies and whiting heads, and hands, but lacking in brains. And so the whites remained for hundreds of years until a natural recuperation of their nervous system started them again on the upward path.
"The great revolution and fall of the white race, which I have just described in as few words as possible, did not occur until after the great expulsion, but, as I have already said, the first symptoms of decay were already visible to the eagle eyes of the outside people who, and especially the Chinese and Japanese, were ready to pounce upon their prey, when they thought the time was ripe. And this came about in the twenty-sixth century of our era.
The Chinese Empire had now become the most formidable military power that had ever been known. She had a population of more than 600,000,000, a standing army or permanent military force, of 8,000,000 highly trained soldiers, with competent commanders and unlimited resources, and a potential army, including the reserves, all of whom had good military training, of 40,000,000 men. In her own territory she had long been impregnable, but she had been known from time immemorial as a peace-loving nation, and none of the other peoples had any reason to fear aggression on her part. The nations of Europe, kept up their quarrels and bickering, however, and the white race generally, have a constant source of annoyance to the more quiet nations along the border. They were constantly mistaken raids and scouting out what
they called punitive expeditions to average the death of rascals who had been caught red-handed by other weaker nations and put out of the way. In the course of some of these forays their armed forces disturbed the rest of the great dragon, and finally China was stirred to wreak and determined to recapture. her patience had been long enduring so her anger when once accrued was the more terrible, and the entered action the most momentous in the history of the world. "The empire was now in the control of a dynasty claiming a lineal descent from the great Vouli of the Han dynasty and under a succession of able administrators and military geniuses carried to a successful conclusion the most stupendous military enterprise ever conceived by a human mind.
China and Japan were by this time, and had been for hundreds of years in perfect accord. Close relations had also been established with the princes of India, where Germany had sup-planted the English as king of the United States and had long since the United States and the Philippines and her other island possessions in the Pacific and only foreigners of the white race at that time exerting sovereignty in Asiatic territory were the Germans, French and Russians. The Dutch possessions had passed to Germany hundreds of years before.
"Such was the general situation when, like a thunderbolt from the blue China issued a notice to Europe that all European people and European troops must be withdrawn from Asiatic territory, that Herculecron Asia was to be held by Asiatics and the whites were to confine their turbulent energies to Europe and America. Nothing was said at the time about Africa, but we were already established here, and the whites had already met with some unwelcome experiences in trying to mediate with us. The white nations were given a chance to return, and then the

Do Not Want Equal Rights Bill
Passed in New Jersey
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Jersey City, N. J., April 21—Representative W. G. Alexander of East Orange, who was introduced a strong Civil Rights bill before the legislature, is the same bitterly opposed to the white hotel owners and managers of the state.
The bill, as represented, prevents discrimination in hotels, restaurants and other public places in the state of New Jersey. It has the backing of all the Colored people of the state, and a large number of broad minded whites, and with the proper public sentiment, has a chance to be passed. It is somewhat similar to bills passed in New York and Illinois, and to the one that was up before the Ohio legislature, and which will be introduced by Representative Henry trown again.
The hotel managers of Atlantic City, where thousands of the leading Colored people of the nation go every year, amply able to enjoy the best accommodations, are most bitterly opposed to the passage.

This Is View Of White Man Who Visits 35 Baptist Congregations
Savannah, Ga., Feb. 21—"In Savannah, Ga., there are thirty-five Colored Baptist churches (this does not include other denominations) with membership of from 60 to 4,000. Their yearly budgets run well up into the thousands according to a white investigation. The have the most delightful music and some of the voices in their choirs are wonderful.
The First Bryan Baptist church has just celebrated its one hundred and thirty-third anniversary and is in fine condition financially. The African Baptist church is following close on the First Bryan as regards age and is completing its new structure which is regarded by architects as one of the most superb auditoriums of its kind.
In addition to this there are exclusive churches of various denominations as regards caste and color. The first blacks are not permitted to attend the light Color or mulatto churches, in some instances, although the broad-minded accept all shades, including black, brown, high brown, mulatto, blue skin or octoroon.

Real Estate Dealer Who Has
Sold Over 1200 Homes To
Baltimore citizens, it is estimated, have on more than $10,000,000 worth of real estate. A large part of this is in the shape of homes purchased within the post quarters of a century.
This estimates is regarded as a conservative one since about fifteen years ago, when the Democrats drafted a distrustful amendment they estimated that colored people here owned over $2,000,000 in real estate. The present advanced value of property along with hundreds of additional pieces of property since sequestered make the $10,000,000 figure reasonable.
One of the men who has been in the field of this turnover of property in M. Burkett with office at 811 S. Paul Street. He is the oldest real estate dealer in the city in point of years of continuous service in the realty field. Last fall he counted out twenty-one years in his chosen line of endeavor.
The recently transactions landed by the Burritt would make a large fortune and he has collected for hundreds of property owners he has sold over 1,200 houses. Only a few months ago he began in option on the old hotel prospect on the northeast corner of St. and Center disposing of the same. He early factory figures. The retail field offers, according to Burritt, the field for related items to display their business equipment. He was educated in the public classes of this city and was graduated from Lincoln university with the degree of bachelor of arts in 1950. He was graduated from the law school of Howard University two years later. He practiced law in Indiana for several and then returned to this city. He was awarded the degree of master of arts from Lincoln University in 1959. *Handwork and intelligent direction* says Mr. Burritt, are among the remnants of success in any field.
He is now leading the light for a new coed school at Catonsville, the a member of the Masons and Knights of Pilts.
Mr. Barbett was married a few years ago to Miss Katherine Hurst, teacher in the city schools. They seek at "Borkhorn," which is beheaded on a ceremonial tract on the old Borkhorn school. Catonsville. There is Bunnett's relaxation in his room and in working in his garden.

On February 1 the employees of the Joseph Tringer Company were entertained by the Board of Directors at the annual House Banquet, which is always the most sincere expression of the harmony between the employees and the employees of the establishment where the business is located. Wine has been manufactured for more than 30 years. The principal
speech ended with the heartily applauded toast: "Three cheers for our customers!" Indeed it was correct to cheer them, because thousands and thousands of these customers are so loyal to Triner's remedies that they recommend it at every occasion. Only the most enthusiastic words for them. Mrs. John Rittman, Jr., wrote us from Leedsville, Pa., on Jan. 6: "Triner's Bitter Wine must be always in my home, I would not be without it. I have been also using Triner's Cough Sedative for the past eight years and Triner's Liniment and think it is the best ever in medicine that money can buy."

Lung Base Treatment Cures
Tuberculosis In First And
Second State
I was sick for years. As a white man it was natural for me to go to white doctors. And I went to the best in Baltimore. One said one thing, and another said something else about my illness. Pitfalls are no good, and I worsen all the time. A friend he had cured recommended me to try Dr. David N. E. Campbell, the Lung and Nerve Specialist, 1369 North Carey Street. At first I healtitated, but I finally went to him. After examining me he laughed and said he was sorry for me. He told me about my complaint, physicist, and courtship upon. He has treated me and made practically a new man out of me. I am now a street car conductor. Since then, he has cured my friend's four year old son Harry, who had convulsions and could scarcely stand or walk. The child now has no more spasms and is running about. The parents are delighted and think Dr. Campbell is one out of hundreds. He has done me wonders, and I am not afraid to tell

OLD TIMER LOOKS
UP DAME RUMOR
Hears She Has Been Whis-
The reporter watched Old Timer for nearly an hour on Drudid Hill avenue button-nolling people and talking earnestly.
"What seems to be agitating your mind?" the serge asked.
"I am trying to find Dumo Rumor, so I've been talking to these folks to learn if they know her," said O. T.
"What has she been doing? he asked the reporter.
"I heard that she had said that Prof Mason Hawkins had taken from his job as the head of that university at Pennsylvania avenue and Dolphin streets and also 'sistant souppinterender of skates, and that he will be the Rossego Bruceo for Baltimore. I also heard that Prof. Corrington Davis, his bosom friend, would take his place as president of the university." Old Timer went on to say.
"That's news to me," said the reporter.
You are always like a cow's tail, behind everybody else." O旧Timer sneered at the reporter. "After everybody has known a thing so long that he has forgotten all about it you begin asking questions about it." It appears to me that the white skidoo folks do not want to bother with the colored skides and that they would rather shift the duty to some culled man that they can trust to carry out their wishes. You know how it is done down South. "I see Doctor Moton has asked President-elect Harding to appoint some Southern white man in his cabinet," the reporter interrupted. "You doesn't mean it" screamed the old fellow. "That's the thing I don't like. No Southern white man asks that a culled man be 'plotted even postmaster at Squeelunk." "You believe in only doing for those that do you," the reporter said.
"This thing of all for the white man and none for the cultured dignitaries," Old Timer replied. Why, President King would not be coming here from Liberia, now if them folks show at Washington had offered him that $5,000,000 ton under the same terms as offered to white nations instead, they wanted to make slaves out of the Liberians," said Old Timer as he went on in his search for Dame Sumner, saying he might find her around at the laying for the cornerstone for the community building of Sharp Street M. E. Church.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN
FARMERS
The Dairy Cow On Every Farm
Herbert Hoover said:
"The white Race cannot survive Without Dairy Products" This is true. Then I wish to say, The White and Colored Races cannot survive without Dairy Products. Let every farmer or head of a family in Maryland get a dairy cow for home use.
Every year approximately 250,000 children die in the United States because of under-nourishment. Investigation in all sections of the country show that at least one third of our children are under-nourished. And if the child is under-nourished the adult will not be fully developed—which is borne out of by the fact that one-third of our young men fail to come up to army standards during the war and were rejected for physical unfitness. Children should have proper food, which leading Authorities everywhere agree, are milk and its products—butter, cheese, condensed milk, ice cream, etc. Milk contains the nutritive elements, protein, fat, carbohydrates and mineral matter, in perfect proportion for human consumption. There are no substitutes for dairy products. Therefore, let all Maryland farmers get a dairy cow for home use.
The liberal use of milk has made us what we are. No family should put on the table any meat until each member has at least a pint of milk daily.

doctor, with several different doctors and none seemed to do me any good. Anything I ate seemed to bloat me and cause great misery, and at night I would take spells with my heart and had to jump up to get my breath. I had just about given up all hope of ever getting well when I decided to try Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. After taking the first bottle I could see a difference in myself so I continued until I took six bottles and now I am sound and well." BEN BOWLES. All drugists.

IN THE BILLBOARD
BY J. J. JACKSON
Pennsylvania, avenue, Baltimore is becoming a veritable white litch street of the Broadway type. The Baltimore business development along twenty blocks of that thorporate Realty values have as a consequence mounted until holdings are of more favored parts of the city.
Theaters enter largely into the development. Some years ago the little Lincoln, opened its doors with a few patrons. The house has man a fortune for its owner since then; yet so far he has not seen fit to capitalize his opportunity by increasing his plant. P. Sacks's "Rainbow," at 2100 Penn. avenue, is playing Dudley acts to packed houses daily and the acts, usually four or five in number, are 200 people to each performance. In the 1000 block the New Regent, a $200,000 property, owned by Hornstein Bros. and managed from Ousley, was opened February 1.
At the corner of Lanvale and Penn, the Douglass Amusement Co. is erecting the $300000 Douglass. Foundation work is complete, and while Lachman & Kalser are rousing construction Construction Enclave, the underwriters, Brown & Stevens Bank, of Philadelphia, is disposing of some stock locally as an insurance upon local interest.
When completed the house will be an added link to the quality chain.
It is billed to open July 1 with the Lafayette Players in an appropriate piece.
At Biddle street, the New Royal, a mammoth picture house, is being erected. These two houses with two or three of the smaller store size picture houses, together with the avenue, Dignity is afforded by the home of the Negro Business Men's Exchange at 1210 Penn avenue.
Burton's Haberdashery and Clothing Store, in the heart of the theatrical district, is already a point of interest to the artists, who so seldom see one of the race in their enterprise.
The American Federation of Musicians maintains its club and offices in the same block on the avenue. Bloomingfield Bros.' newsstand at 1436 Penn avenue carries The Billboard 100 and davidville team of Eurin and DeLyons have a boarding house near the Regent. Just to show what a busy little spot it is we shook hands with Queen Dora, of fifteen people, Jim Sith, former College Theater manager, when it was operated by the Loys. Also with "Chicken"
CHARLES CARR
SHOT AGAIN
Charles Carr, chauffeur of an automobile used by federal prohibition officers, was shot in the right foot by his wife, Mrs Mabel Carr, on Wednesday of last week. She escaped.
Carr claims that his wife was apparently under the influence of an ethicistic stimulant and was sitting on the steps of their home, 585 Walnut street. He asked her to come in.
Obeying the request he declares, that she came into the home, grabbed a pistol and began shooting. Once went through his foot and another hit him in the left foot. Harry Tipp narrowly escaped being shot. He was given first aid treatment at the Maryland General Hospital; where he was told an X ray must be taken to determine whether he L. Hall, of E. 23rd street, extracted the bullet last Friday night.
Carr was shot by a man he spayed
the man. Six weeks ago, the man escaped.
HELD ON DRUG CHARGE
Maggie Mallain, who was arrested in the raid on the coal yard of James Wilson, located in the cellar of 1046 Pennsylvania avenue, was held for the action of the federal grand jury with unlawfully drunk drums in her possession. Mrs. James Wilson and James Campbell, who were represented at the hearing by Attorney George I. Pendleton, were released.

Your Beauty and Your Hair
The hair is the finest adornment women can have.
Soft, long, glossy hair is as necessary to the beauty of women, the attractiveness of men, as the clothes they wear.
You can have long, beautiful, wavy hair by the use of
BLACK AND WHITE QUININE POMADE - the wonderful Hair Grower
Black and White Quinine Pomade is pure, white and delicately perfumed. The best vegetable oils and extracts from barks and herbs are used in its manufacture. Chemists perfected this wonderful hair grower; hair specialists have pronounced it one of the best preparations known, because it contains just the oils and herb extracts needed to feed the roots of the hair and make it grow.
Black and White Quinine Pomade will make the hair grow on the temples, relieve tetter, itching scalp and some other scaly conditions caused by dandruff.
Regular shampooing of the hair is necessary. If the right shampoo is not used, long, soft, glossy hair is impossible.
Black and White Soap is the best shampoo. Its regular use will greatly aid Black and White Quinine Pomade.
Write Dept. H. C. for free booklet on how to dress and treat your hair and sample of Quinine Pomade.
Black and White Quinine Pomade can be bought at all good drug stores in large glass jars for 50c; Black and White Soap for 25c the cake, or both will be sent you on receipt of 75c.
