C., March 7.—That telephone girls listen in and keep their ears open for gossip was proven last week when Mrs. Florence Varner was convicted of having improper relations with R. Baxter McRary, a wealthy colored man, largely on the testimony of white telephone girls. Four, former Lexington operators testified to fact that they had heard Mrs. Varner and McRary, hold conversation over phone at various times and that soon after telephone message, McRary had been seen to enter Varner's lot through alley in rear of house. Mrs. Hilda Anderson, who admitted on the stand that her husband had after his return from France deserted her and married a French woman, swore emphatically that while telephone operator in Lexington that she had heard McRary call her, McRary and Mrs. McRary call McRury over phone and have conversations. She said as well as she could recall conversations took place during summer, 1919. WRITER TAKES A DAY OFF and have us well as sations to 1919. "Who ed."

Taylor There had been some talk beforehand as to whether or not some Southern actors might stay away from the dinner, or that Gilpin himself might just "drop in." Gilpin set all minds at rest by staying than the dinner and his color made no difference to the diners who treated him most cordially. The dinner was in honor of the ten guests who contributed most to the stage during the year. They were presented in turn. When Gilpin rose to reply, the diners not only applauded for a full minute, but stood up and cheered him. He said he was filled beyond words with emotion and appreciation of the honor. Gilpin was altogether at ease, chatting and smoking with Miss Vares, Wesley Wycherley, Jacob Ben Amia, the Jewis actor, Lee Simpson on the deskite. The ten guests of honor were Messrs. Gilpin, Ben Anil, and Simpson, Dudley Baggis, director and actor "heartbreak House," Will, leading man in Lebanon, David Tacsolea the producer of the same; Miss Vares, Mary Margaret Severn for her dances in masks, Eugene O'Xell as a playwright and Fred Stone as a comedie, Iceland, O'Neil and Stone could not be present.

Hagerstown, Md., March 10.—In the biggest coupe ever pulled off in this part of the state, Richard G.

Twenty years ago in the same ward another colored man Joseph Truman was nominated, but defeated at the election by a Democrat.

He found that Barmum was badly nominated and the meeting practically over. Some effort was made to plead with the meeting, but he was given to understand that the fifth ward is largely colored and this time a colored councilman is desired.

SPRING IS COMING DON'T FOR GET YOUR BLOOD Leading Druggists And Experts Say Herbs Of Life Is Positively The Best Blood Medicine On The Market Helps to Build Up the Entire Human System With Life Giving Oxygen In the springtime, after a winter sickness or long days spent inside, the blood becomes clogged with waste matter. The little red corpuscles in your blood become interior. They make a smooth envelop when they pass through the lungs. They tiny cells, billions of them, miss the nourishing effect of the oxygen, and faces become pale, bodies weak. If you feel out of sorts, cranky, tired out most of the time, it is probably because your blood is weak. If you have no other disease pulling you down, you can be pretty sure your blood is weak and you need the help that Herbs Of Life, the well known Spring blood tonic gives. Herbs Of Life makes rich blood and puts new life into the red corpuscles. If you are anemic (a thin blood condition) Herbs Of Life will restore the right number of corpuscles. You will notice a general improvement, better appetite, more restful sleep, better complexion, wide open clear eyes. Herbs Of Life is sold by all druggists. The following druggists have large quantities on hand are recommending auth-selling it on a money back guarantee:—Hiburun, Northwestern, Fennell, Omen, Stokes, Eoenning, Simon Solomon, Kerr, Hayes, Grauel, Hauser, Wiehs, Leberman, Sherman, Ter-mer, Wheels, Curey, Lanorale, Eslinger, Young, Derry, Powder and Read Drug and Chemical Companies eight stores.—Adv.

ATED FOR COUNCIL Politics When ican Primary. CIVIL RIGHTS BILL OR A NEW PARTY Pennsylvania Republicans Threaten A Split If Bill Does Not Pass State Legislature STATE IN FERMENT Leaders Demand That Schools, Theatres, And Hotels Be Open To All Speaking for the AFROAMERICAN yesterday, Attorney W. Justin Carter, secretary to the Lieutenant-Governor and one of the best known men in the state declared that the Civil Rights Bill will get the support of Senator Ponose and Governor Spread. Mr. Carter condemned any threat to the younger Republicans to form an Independent party as "too hardy," because it would be "in a hopeless minority." He was also opposed to amending the bill so as to permit separate schools. Harrisburg, Pa., March 10 Either the state legislature must pass the Civil Rights Bill now before it guaranteeing equal rights to all without regard to color, or the younger colored Republicans will form a new party. This is the statement of fact that the younger Republicans thru their representatives have put up to the Legislature, and the outcome is being watched with interest. This is the second time that the Legislature has considered a Civil Rights Bill, but since last year the lower house has two colored members in John C. Ashbury and Andrew Stevens, both of Philadelphia. Mr. Ashbury has already announced that any member of the legislature who does not vote for the bill is an enemy to his people." The presence of the two colored representatives in the lower house will mean that the measure will be presented and a roll call put every member on record. Reusing public mass meeting addressed by Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Ashbury have been held in many parts of the state. EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL The Civil Rights Bill as drawn make it an offence punishable with a fine of from $100 to $500 for any owner, manager or superintendent of eating places, places of amusement, stores, hotels, hospitals, stores or colleges to deny access to any person being found of race. The business being fought in some quarters it would open all theatres, hotels and cafes to colored people on even terms and make it impossible for primary, grammar and high schools and colleges to refuse to admit colored persons as students.

Anderson, who fell asleep in Jesus one year ago, March 10th, 1920. Thou art gone, but not forgotten in this great wide world of strife; Thou shall always be remembered as long as God doth give me life. By his loving wife. SARAH E. ANDERSON What grief and pain he suffered None of us will ever know. For Jesus took him home to dwell Where tears will never flow. Sometimes, some day our eyes shall see, The one we love so well; Some day his hand will clasp in mine, Anr never say farewell. I hid my face against his cold form I pressed the cold lips, my kiss could not warm My tears fell like raind on his beautiful head For then I knew my dear father was dead. By his loving daughter, OLLIE T. ANDERSON and sons, HARRY C. and SAMUEL J. ANDERSON. BROWN — In loving remembrance of my niece Marion Brown, who departed this life one year ago March 6, 1920.

A happy home we once enjoyed, How sweet the memory still But death has left a vacant chair, This world can never fill. Our mother was called so suddenly Without time to say goodbye But we knew her thoughts were of When she was called to die. We did not know the pain she hore We did not see her die; We only knew she passed away Without blinding us goodbye. She was taken from this world of grief. To the land of peaceful rest; God took you my dear wife Where you could find eternal rest We oftimes sit and think of you When we are all alone For memory is the only friend That grief can call its own But mother when the roses bloom And the trees in beauty wave We will gather up a large bunch And once them where you are Lad.

Bell and Bell, opened, with singing, dancing and some patter, that netted them scattering applause. Joe Means followed in some tricks of magic, the most popular of which was an aviation act which consisted of the suspension of his female assistant in space, with only an elbow resting on a broom. Nine came Morton and Brown, a duo who had apparently "just stepped out of the handbox." This team has style and grace but it handicapped by lack of suitable material of sufficient originality. Both have good voices and know how to put over a song; but even a singer of the very highest talent, should not marvel if a colored vaudeville audience should greet with perfunctory applause, a song extolling the diamond-like eyes of the singer's blue eyes, which the female member of the team rendered as her solo number on Monday evening; colored babies with blue eyes are too rare at this time to evoke much tender sentiment, even in song. Allen and Jones, a duo of male entertainers came next, and proved the headlines of the bill. Both are fair singers and know how to harmonize in a duet. One of this team also demonstrates that it is possible for a colored modem to be fun to sing, and face with burnt curls and dressing as if he had just come out of a guano factory. Oma Croshy's "Kinkies Beautiful" close the bill. This team is composed of a quartet of extremely youthful players two girls and two boys, who white exhibiting an abundance of "op" skills and an evident state of development in the art of the stage to warrant more than the accustomed tolerance of the average vaudeville audience. A word however, must be said in praise of the serveral rich changes during the progress of their skit. "Harvest Moon" the story of a wronged woman was the feature picture. THE NEW LINCOLN Anita Bush and her "Shimmy Baby Dolls Joseph Russell a monologist; Camm and Camp in songs, patter and dancing; and Edwards and O'Brien the routine violinists and the blues singer, complete the bill at the New Lincoln this week. Miss Bush and her babies are well-known hereabouts, and can always be depended upon to get the very last "wrinkle" out of the "shimmy." Camm and O'Brien, however run her a close second for top honors. THE NEW RAINBOW The excellent attendance at the New Rainbow last week, which was the first week of the management's new policy of straight pictures, has encouraged them to seek still further in an effort to secure the best. Wednesday and Thursday of this week: "Madame N" with Pauline Frederick is being shown; new week Clarn in ballbowl Youth in the big offerings; be among the big offerings; and the following week, Pauline Frederick will once more appear, in a pisturized version of "The Woman in Room 12". A melo-drama that was the sensation of the speaking stage a season or so ago. THE CAREY "Come early or stand up" would be a good motto for the Carey, and in the language of a famous advertisement, "there's a reason". The management knows what their patrons want. And in the 21st, Wm. S. Hact in "The Cradle of Courage" will return by special request. Also "fimmy" Aubrey, in a great comedy. Later George Chebros, better known as "Hands Up" supported by Eileen Sedgwick in a great serial, "The Diamond Queen" will appear. Followed by a feature picture made from the thrilling novel of E. W. Hornung entitled: "Dead Men Tell No Tales" one of the leading characters in this picture is that of a Portuguese Negro. THE DUNBAR The Dunbar is running "neck and neck" with the picture houses "up-town" On Tuesday, feature day, packed houses greeted "Nobody's Children" the colored picture, from the pen and colored writer an actor Richard Pace. On next Tuesday, "Love" with Louise Glaum will be the big feature. THE STAR Sidney Perrin's Musical Comedy Company which we reviewed on this page last week when they appeared at the Lincoln is playing at the Star this week. The outstanding features of this company are the excellent comedy of the "Happy" Ferguson and the one string violin playing of James Stewart. GILMOR E. E. Edwards, Manhattan Players replaced the Johnson's High Steppers at the Glimor Theatre this week because of the failure of the latter to make good at the Clay St Theatre at Annapolis. The Manhattan players played at the same house and packed the house for the singles.

FIRED JUDGE SEEKS RETURN Asks Court Here To Mandamus Him Back On Virgin Island Bench 2 Sale of Stock IN THE MUNICIPAL STUDIOS The Douglass Theatre Now under construction on Pennsylvania avenue near Lanvale street When the Half-Million Dollar Dunbar Theatre at Broad and Loribard 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 duplicate of the Dunbar Theatre he built in the City of Baltimore. The management at once began investigating conditions in Baltimore, and were quickly covined 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 fanally 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 Douglas 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 Douglas 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 o fshares 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. IT 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 or theatres 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. IF YOU ARE interested in the Do not let tomorrow find you undecided what to do. Delay may mean another lost opportunity over which you may have many regrets.

JACKSON, local Manager FRIDAY, MARCH 11, 1921 HARDING HAD SHORT PARADE Correspondent, Who Has Seen Twelve Inaugurations Says Procession Moved With Speed COLOR IN THRONG Huge Sound Amplifiers Carried President's Address To 50,000 Easily "The king is dead. Long live the king." "Welcome the coming, speed the parting guests." This seemed to be the main thought of the tremendous crowd that lined Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House to the Capitol, last Friday. Washington has seen probably greater crowds, but none more demanding than upon seeing what had there was to be seen. After a long wait, the overload of the United States embassy in Washington sword in hand, preparing the automobiles with the first few of some Presidents in the fellowships, came patterning down to the wards at such a rate of speed that like the old colored buses on the railway train, the two counts one to say the other to say A mention of fact, the process with which so much speed and efficiency were so conceived by troops that it is almost impossible to get a handle of the main actors of this persecution. Notwithstanding all the crowds cheered, and public awarded the return of the memorial to the White House, the main feature and the one occasion to attune the greatest contribution to the new amplifier gave to the President's voice in the tumult of life who gathered in the eastern front of the Capitol to inaugurate the inaugural address. With the commencement of speaking, the work was so outfiel that sixty-five hours of tremendous activity if it were in a church meeting in the section of an interment.

As usual the "Colored Brother" was on hand with his mother, sister, father, brother, uncle and aunt, and could be seen everywhere packed and jammed in every crowd. The writer has seen every inaugural from the time of President Grant to the present, but this was the shortest and quickest inaugural procession that he had ever witnessed. While there was no official inauguration hall held by the white people, two of them were held by the colored people. Probably with the intention that whether Mr. Harding approved or not, dancing had to be done. Neither of them was over crowded. The National Negro Press Association, held its meeting in the library of the Dumbar High School. The meeting was fairly well attended but, like most of these meetings, there was a considerable amount of talk but very little was actually accomplished. The inaugural seemed to have had more attractions than the Press Association, with the result it was hard to keep the members together. The attractions on the outside, being, to their mind, more interesting than the work of the Association.

When big Tom Chandler, returning from South America with the fortune he had fought to wrest from the mines that he might win his childhood sweetheart, was introduced to the girl who had promised to wait for him, as the mistress of another man . . . . Tom saw red. That was natural. And Natalie who had made woman's sacrifice, not for herself, but for her baby sister, would have tern her heart but rather than see Tom suffer. Was not this, then, Natalie's supreme sacrifice —and was not the sin of the flesh the purification of her soul? How she and Tom eventually work out their destiny is best told in the screen version of the story, in which Miss Ghaum plays Natalie and James Kirkwood is Tom.

The game was staged in the "Y" gym last Saturday. The game was one of the most exciting that has been played by girls in this city. Until the last few seconds of the game, we were touching with mother being more than three points ahead at any stage. The Athenians, however, served up the game with only ten seconds to play when "Brown" Brown made two foal ORIOLES 10 HARRISBURG 9 The Oriole Girls under the direction of Miss Daisy Bailey and Bertrand Webb journeyed to the Harrisburg, Pa. gym. ORIOLES 10 HARRISBURG The Oriole Girls under the direction of Miss Daisy Bailey and Bernard Webb journeyed to the Hariburg, Pa., Armory and defeated the independent girls in a rough game Tuesday night. There were little to choose be-ween the lives. The Albanians seemed to have something on the Orders in lieu of an evident enemy in those like the Armenians, whose would be a telling factor. As was predicted the game was formed by some exceptional close guarding on the part of both teams. But the worst of both in shooting from the field and quite in firing loss. The Independent's line-up included Misses Matthews, Batack, the fields and Jenkins. Miss Host starred. The Orioles included in their line-up, Misses White, Thomas. The Orioles included in their line-up, Miss White's work stuck on. Miss White's work stuck on. The Athens squad were first to break the ice when "Decay" Brown tossed one from the Gondola marker after Theresa White and Theresa White slipped from the 15-foot mark, but Theresa White, the clever diminutive forward of the Orioles came on with a field goal, smashed the home team's best debut and played a one time she caused a pretty one from the 15-foot sending her team in the lead 4 to 1. The Oriole follows seemed confident, the Athletics however, tightened their defense and were playing curious with another foil shot and Thelma Coleman, playing a wonderful game with a wonderful team and blessing her team on even terms with the Orioles, 4-4. Theresa White missed a foil and "Decay" missed two, but "Decay" came back with a short shot that turned the game on. She came back in 4-4 in favor of Athletics. Neither team was able to be adequate territory to any great advantage in the second game was by Brady Gaines, who half stealing 6 to 5 in favor Athletics. Doubleheader Basketball In "Y" Gym Saturday Afternoon Between Boys And Girls Fur will surely fly in the "Y" gym Saturday afternoon when Morgan Academy tackles the high school quint and Morgan girls encounter the high school girls. Both boys will stretch of the high school boys. They were slow in getting started, not coming out to practice and the like, as a result no games were arranged for them. Rivalry has always been between the two schools and the girls have been with blood. John Rich at center and playae at forward can be depended upon to do the bulk of the work for the high school, while Sorrell of Morgan will be much in evidence. The girls have played once this school, the high school quint emerging victors in a close battle. The collegians hope to avenge their defeat. --- SECOND HALF EXCITING HOWARD AS The second half was for blood, both teams playing equally as sparsely as in the first half. The Titans' Coleman placed it 2 for 1 for the Athletics. "Penny" Brown soon tossed one from the foul mark opening the defense. "Penny" lost a chance to even the score by missing two from the foul mark. The third half ended with the Athletics holding command of the game. LINCOLN TONIGHT The old rivals will meet tonight in the court game at Murray's Casino in Washington. Not much opposing is anticipated from color this season, but the odds hold. The Linencites have only one dependable player in the person of Wheatland their center. Howard has good five men team. The first and final quarter was special to say the lenth, both five running to get within a shooting position in the end zone, and a stronger defense in order to maintain their lead. Martins tossed a foul being thrown to within one point of the score. Followers of both teams were with. With three minutes to play it was apparently evident that a field goal by either team would mean victory. Theresa White was equal to the occasion and tossed a doubleheader putting her team in DOWN PETTSBURGH GIRLS New York March 5—The Blue Belt A. C Girls champs of New York State easily defeated the Dee Monte Girls of Pittsburgh 12 to Negro Baseball League In The South Chattanooga, Tenn. March 4— The Negro Southern League has organized, embracing ten clubs, as follows: Mobile, New Orleans and Baltimore. Nationality den, Bessemer, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Nashville and Memphis. The score was now 8-7 in favor of the Oleos with ten seconds to play. An Oleos foul shot inadvertently played in two chances. It was up to "Perry" to win for her team. With calmness and clever aming she drove both in the basket and deflect. The finish was spectacled to the highest degree and turned the hearts of the Athens pastions since the Oleos took considered their team indefinitely. --- ATHENIAN TO HOLD BASEBALL AND TRACK MEETING The Athenians will hold an important meeting tonight in the interest of baseball and track. They have signed up new presidents to show future in these branches of Athletics. May time the uncalled for result of such a name is the unsponsor-like attitude toward the officials. The work of the Virgin and Thunderbush is to be the best that was in them. What more can we expect? There should be a posting of athletes here, but by constantly distributing props招籌 an old nature in shooting will give us new hope. Remember sponsorship first and always. MORGAN #2, Y. M. C.

Howardites Never Had "Look In" In Rough Game In a basket ball game featured by some very rough tactics, the Baltimore Club of Howard University lowered its colors to St. Mary's Five last Friday night in St. Mary's Hall, 25 to 12. The game was featured as times by the scoreboard on the part of both quints, but the Catholics were more consistent in their play, which enabled them to maintain an advantage thru out. The preliminary game, the Contest from East Baltimore proved easy prey for the St. Mary's Juniors. "Y" JUNIOR "5" Coach Morris Midgets Have Outplayed Every Opponent The junior quintet of the local "Y" seem to be in a class by themselves. They have bowled over all their opponents this season. Coach Morris ginger a scrappy bunch of little fellows who would give some of the older lives good practice. They walk away and Wake at center are clever shooters to say at least. They have caused the opponent any amount of worry all season. Their passing game is Basketball, who was suspended for a while is back at guard and playing a bang up game. Madden has shown himself a clever running mate to Sheeps, Hawkins and a tight defense. Allor at forward is at present, substituting, but runs a close second to the other forwards. His floor work is excellent. The East Baltimore Centennials. They played rings around them. LOENDI SWAMPS "40" CLUB Pittsburgh, "ta" Mar. — The Champs, swamped the highly toothed "40" Club of Chicago 58 to the Westchester, a jok in a log. DUNBAR DEFEATS ALL-STARS Wash, Mar. - The fast Dunbar High School Five defeated the Washington All-Stars yesterday 35 to 34. The game was exciting all the way. The All-Stars had three of the famous Alos in their defense, and the All-Stars drew at center played best for Dunbar, while Frankie Johnson at forward and Neil at center played best for the All-Stars. A Badly Sprained Ankle Will Necessitate A Long Rest During a mad Scramble for the ball in the recent "49" Club Athleteman gale, "Scrapy" slipped and Gene Hogan jack came down with full force on "Scrapy's" ankle. A swelling as big as ones ist was the result. Dr. Harry McCard examined the injury and was glad to present his patient. The sprain, however, is of a serious nature and as a result "Scrapy" is now on crutches. Local followers regret very much the unfortunate injury, as Brown Hogan career in his new position at forward. He never failed to thrill with his dazzling play both at home and on foreign courts. His playing at all times was hard, fast, and he must be O. K. for baseball. He will play with the Black Sox. ATHENIAN GIRLS PREPARING ATTACK Return Game With Carlyles To Be Staged in Washington Next Friday Night The Athenian Girls emerging from the gym with the Orioles last Saturday, in great shape are diligently preparing an attack to be directed against the Carlyle Girls, eastern champs. The game will be staged in Murrayville, with plenty of floor space, to their liking, the locals will make the champs bustle, as they have many formations and are passers of ability. Touch Lawrence G.

The Athenians have a new coach new steam ahead for the Alcoes and Loendi. "Dewey" Rogers leaves tonight for Urbana, Ill., as a member of Penn's Relay team. The arrangement at the Armony Tuesday night is to be commended. The roping of the court and arrangement of the seats did much to handle successfully the large crowd. The old rivals will meet. Howard vs Lincoln at Murray's Casino in Washington tonight. The Athenian girls have the edge in the Championship Series It was a great battle. Elizabeth Anthony, the greatest girl center in these parts played so stronely, she tired considerably toward the last of the game. Captain Louise Parrott was here there and everywhere. Little Theresa White scored half her teams points. A clever little dodger, she. The Wharton sisters did not show any sweet family love, but played the game as it should be played. Two of the famous Carlyle girls were interesting spectators. Captain Duff and Mrs. Fannie Minor. They were getting a line on the Athenian for the big game in D. C. on the 18th of this month. The Forty Club downed the Alcoos in Washington last Wednesday 21 to 20. Johnny Johnson the clever forward of Columbia University's quaint was a marked man in the Princeton game last Saturday night. His team lost 37 to 17. The Baltimore Club of Howard should have a clever football team next year. They gave clever exhibition of football games in their two basketball games played here. The Vandal A. C. of Atlantic City show themselves poor sports by constantly refusing to play the Athenian Blue and Gray Machine in this city. The remaining games on Loench schedule are March 11, Coffey Club, March 14, Majeschock, Meccespach, March 15, Lafarge, March 19, Pitcairn at Greensburg, Pa., March 24, Pitcairn; March 31, Eastern League All Stars; March 22 and 26 are also booked in vicinity of Pittsburgh. There must be something wrong with the training of the white boys who yelled "nigger" at Dewey Rogers in the John Hopkins meet. men in the men's marchers and ill-breeding, but after all there is no excuse for them. Its getting to be so bad that simply to see a jopkins man is to stamp him a cracker. Hagerstown, Md., March 10. George W. Robinson, for several years manager of the local baseball team, has signed up to play second base with the Philadelphia Giants.

The Negro players of the national reputation who will represent this city in the colored professional league are "Speed" Cunningham, Charles Wingfield and John Dixon in the Southern Colored Association last year; Robt Ball, of the Chicago Black Diamonds and Tyler Dixon, of the Chicago Union Giants. Assistant Manager West states less than April 1, he will have less than five players at the Atlanta camp. The local association has also closed a contract with the Washington American League baseball team, the use of the Georgia avenue grounds every day that the Nationals are on the road. This means that Washington will have continuous professional baseball during the season. --- WOULD ENTER BIG LEAGUE Billy Matthews former, Harvard baseball star—he will be recalled as one of the greatest who ever performed at Cambridge—has started a movement to remove the bars which pervoted colored baseball players from making their way to the big leagues. Matthews, who is now well-known attorney in this city has appealed to Judge Landsl. The following communication recently was received by the commissioner of baseball: Hon Kenneawan M. Lands, Commissioner. Honored Sir—A as a lover and patron of baseball and representing a group of patrons of the sport in this country which run unto the thousands, permit me, in my own and in their behalf, of the great sport-loving public of this country, to ask you to use the influence of your high office to remove the bars which permit colored players on the field in the great recreational game on teams under the national commission. You will note that every other class of people are counted eligible to play in the big leagues. Why keep the Negro out if he can play the same grade of baseball demanded of the other groups? Are the big more exclusive colleges than the more colleges clubs in the land? Does an attitude on the part of the national commission square with your idea of injustice to Afro-Americans? If baseball leaders would adopt the open door policy award the Negro player, don't you think that they would be in their party that baseball in the future is to be player, don't you think it would be another guarantee on their part that baselove in the future is to be on the level? In the seasons which every production that is a feature entertainment from New York to on the level? There are many reasons which might be advanced with Xergo players be advanced with play on the big screen of which must be too obvious to you, but I shall not take your time to recount them now; whilete only argument which can be advanced in favor of keeping them out is so narrow and selfish for a proud race to advance K. be advanced why Negro players San Francisco, should be allowed to play on the big high interest attraction as a rule teams all of which must be too obj week we see one in Baltimore. you vious to you, but I shall not take. The above being a fact, it has your time to recount them now; led me to believe that they are not advanced in favor of keeping them out is so narrow and selfish of their own race. And for that it is belittling for a proud race that one reason alone prevents them to adduce to help me hear from you upon the owners of the legend the convenience, to allow me as their manager Watch AFRO for next date of Oriole-Athletic game.

HARRIS A BIT OF SHOW TALK By Tim Owsley Manager of Regent Theatre The white Theatres of Baltimore, during the season's run, get almost every production that is a feature entertainment from New York to San Francisco. And these attraction as a rule are high priced shows. Yet every theatre in Baltimore. The above being a fact, it has led me to believe that the Colored Theatre goers of Baltimore want; and will support an equal attraction of their own race. For that one reason of precedent in American entertainment Corp. owners of the Regent theatre, to allow me as their manager to use my own judgment in securing a real Big attraction. And you will find in it many of the biggest and best shows of its land in the colored show world playing all the leading cities just the same as the smarter set and in the lesser of those that go beyond the role of regular theatre goers that an advance in price will be charged for such a show because I show carrying fifty people and a car load of scenery could be enough to entertain me at present prices charged for admission now at the Regent. And there will be only two shows a day given made to me by Baltimore. I believe that Baltimore wants the best in everything and as long as I am manager of the Regent I am going to ask the Owers to allow me to represent there is for the Regent patrons. And if they will not allow me to I am going to let the rubble know in an open letter why. I am going to bring Company is the aid Tess to show me that you want the best and your patronage alone will prove it during his engagement and set seats in boxes and Orchestra will be on sale at the Regent ticket Office Monday May 14 at 10 o'clock. I show means much to prove to me that my contention is true that Baltimore wants the best. And that Baltimore Theatre goes like pure fresh blood and shows as they please, here and there in preference of the foul air that arises from the lower floor in other theaters, asounding people in the house (but not in price) making them foul air fiends with no comfort or than being high above the floor. During my asst. manager of the Regent Baltimore will receive the best my experience can give. TIM E.

ASSAULT STORY MAY BE FIASCO Local Man Identified By Girl Proves He Was In Belief When Crime Was Committed Nineteen year old Gladia P. Sergeant's (white) story of being criminally assaulted by three colored men who over-powered her escort Fonni Daniels, near the Hanover street bridge, may prove a fiasco. Her first story told the police was: To the effect that the Negroes attacked Foonin and the girl while they were walking. She said Daniels was attacked and severely beaten by the Negroes and to escape them he rolled down an embankment. Later in the week she changed this tale and declared she and Daniels were seated on the ground when the men appeared. She said that when Daniels saw the Negroes coming to left her and ran away, after which the three assaulted her. Wilford Hall, aged 25, at 699 Shore street, was picked out by Cladys from a number of persons arrested as one of the men who assaulted her. Police went to a Belair church and proved to their satisfaction that he was there at the time of the crime. Before the Orchmans' Court Wednesday argument was heard on the petition of Joseph Green against Mrs. Martha Green and Rev. D. G. Mack, administrators of the estate of his deceased father, Thomas W. Green, asking for an account. The younger Green believed that the woman who was much younger than his father exercised undue influence was 91 years of age, left his estate of $8,000 to his widow. J. Stewart Davis, who appeared for the defendants, denied undue influence of Mrs. Green and argued that the testator had left the entire estate to the widow without her knowledge. A few weeks ago Jacob Green was arrested on a charge of criminal libel in a attack the minister in elephants which were distributed in West Baltimore. He was paroled in the Criminal Court.

The top layer of a box of cigars is always the best. If you want anything badly enough, you can usually get it. The basis of business is confidence, and the basis of confidence is understanding. Sausage skins are being made from viscose a by product of wood. Stuffing sausages has now become Sticking the pig. In Europe there is a shortage of willow used for wooden legs. We advise Europe to cut out war until the willow trees can grow again. Manufacture of formaldehyde, the disinfectant, depends upon wood alcohol. So does bootleg whiskey, according to the death list. Four little boys were taken off a coal car in Utica, New York last week. They were from the South they said, and were "Northward bound." The largest audience that ever "heard" a public speaker listened to President Harding last Friday. 50,000 people heard every word he said, and 75,000,000 read his speech in the newspapers.

Little Liberia is starting a bank with a half million dollars capital. It is starting wrong however, when it comes to America to get the capital to start banking with. The Independent Republican League plans its get together banquet and convention early in April, just about the time when the state Republican party that them dead and buried. They say that Warren G. was so excited the morning of inauguration that he got up at seven A. M. and was downstairs and thru breakfast at 7:30. Some say he shaved and bathed and others say he didn't.

Now that Hagerstown has waked up politically speaking, what is the matter with the rest of Maryland putting up somebody for office. Easton, Frederick, Cumberland, Pocomoke, Chestertown and all of Charles County have been asleep a long time. "When statesmen remark that they trust in God, they mean to confess that they have exhausted every other expedient." Baltimore Evening Sun. Not necessarily so. There are those who put their trust in God at all times, and are sometimes making a public manifestation of the fact. It is well to let the people know that even men who hold high positions under the government are not only religiously inclined but righteously also. Mr. Wannamaker, one-time Postmaster General, was at the same time superintendent of a Sunday School. Mr. Will M. Hayes, the new Postmaster General, is a teacher of a Bible class, and many other men are prominent in religious work while holding high positions in City, State and Federal governments. Mr. Harding himself is an active member in the Baptist Church. PUTTING ONE OVER By the way was that not some slick trick the Hagerstown voters of ward 5 pulled off last Saturday night. It was a regular meeting of the ward Republicans to nominate a city councilman. The white voters did not bother, but the colored voters turned out 40 strong, and instead of nominating the white man whom the white leaders picked, put up one of their own number. Now here is the point. The white politician is always talking about colored independents splitting the party. But do you know that the white voters of ward 5 instead of taking their medicine like men, are planning to put up a white man as independent candidate. THE FORGOTTEN MAN William Graham Sumner has an essay on the FORGOTTEN MAN. The forgotten man is that individual who does an honest day's work, pays his bills, brings up three or four children, keeps up a small savings account, never asks for charity, never gets arrested. The tax gatherer visits the FORGOTTEN MAN regularly and collects toll for the upkeep of the police courts, jails, workhouses and poorhouses—none of which the FORGOTTEN MAN ever uses. The FORGOTTEN MAN is just the everyday, common ordinary plain citizen, who does the best he can, and makes a pretty good job at it. He is a dependable old horse—broken to harness and he will stand without hitching. Remember there are millions of him, and there isn't a chance that he will ever go crazy even tho the whole world about him does seem inclined that way. When things get too bad, he'll take a hand at running them himself, you can depend upon him to do it in a sensible way. DRAWING POWER Kansas City, Mo. High School has a Thrift Club for its students and $1200 in bank; a cadet corps in which is enrolled every boy in the school; a band of 52 pieces and an orchestra of 32 pieces; a lunch room for students conducted by themselves; a senior class that checks up the school attendance, and a faculty committee that conducts a Sunday public lecture or musical. Graduates of the school are eligible to enter Western colleges without examination, and on the industrial side there are classes in sewing, millinery, cooking, carpentry, brick and stone masonry, house painting, plumbing and gas engine. Is there any wonder such a school has over 700 pupils, while Kansas City itself has, but 50,000 colored people. On the basis of population, this high school has twice the drawing power of the Baltimore High School. ALLIED, NOT BLACK OCCUPATION Germany is fussing because of the Allied occupation, not on account of the occupation of French Black Troops. She is using the French Black Troops as a hammer to create sympathy for the poor downtrodden German Hans in foreign countries and especially in the United States. There is no color line in Germany. Simple minded women there never saw a colored man until the war. Intermarriage is just as common there as it is in France. Occupation is a dreadful scourge, a kind of half slavery. The German Rhine country is experiencing what it inflicted upon France in 1870. Now France has her turn. French troops are quartered in German cities, and the German government is paying for their upkeep. Nor are the French troops overly polite to the German populace. Both men and women have few rights that the French soldiers are bound to respect. In other words Germany is being bled white, just as every other conquered nation is bled white by the victors in war. This is the French "revanche" premeditated for the past fifty years, and for it all Germany has no one to blame but HERSELF, and HER SELFISH RULERS. CHAMP CLARK It is told here that Champ Clark, of Missouri, when Speaker of the House, strolled into the chamber once when a hot tirade on the Negro was taking place. He stopped, listened and then walked to the Speaker's chair, relieving Representative Charles J. Linthicum, of Maryland, who was presiding. "What's before the House," demanded Speaker Clark as he took the gavel. Someone attempted to tell him, and he drawled out: "I rule that out of order; take up the next question on the calendar. During the Taft administration many colored men went over to the Democratic party, and Champ Clark was their choice as the Democratic nominee for President. The National Negro Democratic League sprung into existence, with the late Bishop Alexander Walters as head. Headquarters were maintained here and Mr. Clark's praises sung around the country. Indeed there were no more disappointed men in the Union when Mr. Clark lost the nomination in 1912. Eight years of Wilsonism drove the great majority of these colored Democrats back into the Republican party. Had Champ Clark been elected President, instead of Mr. Wilson, how different might A DEFENSE OF LINCOLN UNIVERSITY Several weeks ago there appeared in these columns an article entitled: "Lincoln University has Queser Policy." The natural inference diffused by that article was that Lincoln University looks with disfavor on placing colored professors on its Faculty. It is undeniably true that the outstanding men of the race with professors credentials are very few. And furthermore they can do much more efficient and constructive work in a locally better adapted to such than Lincoln University. Again, few people know the financial status of the institution; few are aware that it is supported mainly by private funds and above all, few are willing to believe that Lincoln's prewar basis of "productive funds to the amount of $55,000 per year" is not much different from but large-hearted men and women of the opposite race. Also among the various organizations that contribute to the institution, a list of which is in every issue of the Lincoln University Herald, rarely, if ever, appears the name of a colored organization. Now, frankly, the members of the university and modest influence flow into the coffers of the institution. True it is that the alumni and friends have responded in an heroile manner to the blare of the Extension Fund trumpet, but, hear in mind, this is after the name and the fume of Lincoln University have been established. The policy of Lincoln University is not "queer," nor conservative nor prejudiced, and yet it is not impeccable. TUT TUT. THE EDITORIAL SAID $18- 000. AND WE STILL INSIST THAT ANY BUSINESS MAN WHO DIRECTS A BUSINESS OF $1,000,000 A YEAR IS WORTH THIS AMOUNT. To the Editor: Under caption "Heroes and Valials" in an editorial which appeared in your paper for February 22nd, you pointed out that if Mr. Garvey was not receiving $180,000 a year that he should be. I have always held you in high esteem because in my mind you have always stood for the right for the colored race, so far as you have been able to understand it, therefore I must dissent this idea which you have set forth, as it seems to me a grotesque misconception and misrepresentation of the truth. No organization run by colored people is able to pay the President $180,000 a year and a man who works charging the people this amount for his service is working for parsimonius gain, and this should not be done. However, I do not question Mr. Garvey's honesty, but his avaricious spirit makes intelligent people question his sincerity. Mr. Garvey has what I would term auto dynamic power, and he wields it like a Czar and you and the rest of the newspaper men seem to he should have more power simply because he has on foot a movement to free Afrien. All of this seems to be incongruous. Mr. Garvey started out to run ships between the West Indies and New York and between Africa and New York. He has not made out so well. If the experiences with the ships so far are to be used as criterion the ships are a failure. He has also organized a factory, cooperation and his latest move is to do constructive work in Liberia. All of these things seem to me a scheme which is bombastic, wasteful, illogical, reflective and almost illegal. He would have all colored people lined up against the white people, in fact the people have little to say with respect to Mr. Garvey's movement; he keeps himself in limelight and the people who support the movement are the incommu quantity and have no voice whatsoever with respect to the management. Mr. Garvey has made his members so arrogant that they will not allow people to discuss the movement at all, and any one who attempts to do finds himself attacked in the manner which Charles S. Morris, Sr. was attacked New York and Hon. W. A. Hawkins was attacked in Baltimore. — L. F. COLES, 833 Leland St., Phila. Pa. To the Editor: After reading the article under the headline "Blue Line Busses Must Carry All", it seems to me that all of those who have suffered similar indignities in attempting to ride on litter busses in the city should follow Mrs. Blackwell's example and report the matter to the Public Service Commission. Many times it happens that colored people do not get the fullest enjoyment of public utilities because they are lax in insisting upon them. We ought to take our hats off to Mrs. Blackwell, even tho in doing it we blush, because a woman must go forward to fight her own battles while the most of us milk and water men stand on the sidelines, or beat it over to Washington looking for a political job. Signed A MILK AND WATER MAN OUR NEW CITY COUNCILMEN ARE To the Editor: You have not heard from me for some time, but I was constrained to ask myself this week, of what earthly use was it for you and I and the women to break our necks getting city councilman elected a little over a year ago. This is a perfectly friendly observation, for I do not have the honor of the acquaintance of either of the gentlemen, nor do I intend to become a candidate for political office. Seriously however, have Messrs. McGuinn and Fitzgerald done anything in the City Council in the nearly two years of their incumbency besides "second the motion" and "move to adjourn." Perhaps it is not entirely their fault. I am charitable enough to believe that the Republican Party is partly to blame in refusing to put thru the colored Councilmen's nominations for health wardens, constables and janitors in the city hall. In this respect our two colored councilmen are entirely emasculated. Before their fellow members of the council they stand as "rubber stamps". Even a Democrat is given authority to recommend some men for office, but the only thing a colored Republican members can do is "move to adjourn." O tempo, O mores is there any wonder Mr. Fitzgerald wants to be the Recorder of Deeds in Washington and allow the Council to appoint some white Democrat in his place as a repentative of the 17th ward. Theatres And Churches J. J. JACKSON IN THE BILLBOARD The Tidewater town of Virginia is full of novelties among its Negro residents. Its wealth is best described by the fact that three Negro banks, Brown Bros, the Tidewater Savings and another are so busy as to have warranted Billy Kemp and his associates organizing the Union Commercial Bank, whose building is now under construction. That proves they have money, and the big Attucks Theater volunteering its auditorium every Sunday for services by the Rev. Columbus Maxwell, an evangelist, and permitting the Grace Presbyterian Church to conduct a noon day Lenten service daily, is ample proof of the complete sanity of its citizens on the subject of a proper relation between religion and amusement. This $200.00 property aside from having a first-class modern theater contains three floors of office space all occupied by Negro enterprises. The Attucks is managed by Robert Gross and William Kelly is assistant manager. He is a showman who was actually born in a dressing room and crashed in a trunk. The orchestra consists of Claude Lewis, violin; Gruntard Reed, piano; Joe Jenkins, cornet, and Jesse Crowder. They are members of the Philharmonic Orchestra Society. The motion picture operators are colored men. Aside from the Attucks Theater, the amusement field in Norfolk is dominated pretty thoroughly by Jake Wells and his associate, Jefferson D. Hoffelmer, who control seven houses, three of which cater exclusively to Negro patronage. The Arcade and Manhattan are picture houses and the Palace plays vaudeville booked by S. H. Dudley, and and plays three shows daily usually to a. The Palace has a seating capacity of a thomurturnaway business. Mr. Hoffelmer and the house manager, R. B. Lewis, are practical showmen, who have studied their drawing population most carefully. The William Kemp Band and / Orchestra, which proudly call itself the "Best in Virginia," numbers 70 musicians. It works all over the Tidewater district and Eastern North Carolina and has sent units as far away as Florida. Prof. Brook's Jazz Knight Hounds is another hard working body of dance musicians. Kemp's Orchestra has been so profitable as to make it possible for the leader to be an important official in the new Commercial Union Bank. Its stock holders invited The Billboard caller to a meeting. It is in outdoor enterprises that this district achieves its widely known distinction. Buckroe Beach, with its adjacent park and bathing facilities, is known wherever Negro society meets and mingles. Lem Bright's Little Bay Beach and his many other enterprises have made Lem ' a definite character to sailors, actor folks and mere tourists of every land. He owns besides the park the Mt. Vernon Hotel and the big Church Street Market House, a $200,000 property that houses a half hundred merchants. Perry's Japanese Garden, on Queen street, entertains hundreds nightly. At present the artists in the cabaret are Isiah Langford, piano; Wm. Wre, violin; Eugene Cooper, cornet; Macca Jefferson, banj; Ernest Morro, bass violin; Bemi Goodall, double bell baritone, and Allen Dempfer, traps. The entertainers are Mrs. Morgan Brown, Martha Copeland, Alberta Langrow and Mrs. Gertrude Ricks. The local bands of distinction are the Excelsior, conducted by George Elliott; the Premier Military, Prof. Brown, director, and E. Butt's Imperial Band. The Metropolitan Band of Portsmouth is another tidewater organization of merit. In that city C. Nicholas manages the Strand Theater and the HoHilheimer interests are constructing a big house to add to the consolidated time. In Newport News Mr. Mosely, a colored man, manages the Lincoln Theater, and employs Dudley acts, as does the Liberty in Berkley. The "Journal and Guide," whose owners, The "Youngs," are band and theater investors, is a fine paper with an excellent mechanical equipment. The profession is handled by the "Muse," a publication from the pens of Harvey Baxter and S. H. Nesbit, two youthful writers of much promise. I'll leave it to you if newspapers, hanks theatres and music consolidated and held together by church theaters and music consolidated bination. NO CLASS, NO GROUP, NO SECTION—ALL AMERICANS Extracts From President Harding's Inaugural Speech With the nation-wide induction of womanhood into our political life, we may count upon her intuitions, her refinements, her intelligence, and her influence to exalt the social order. We count upon her exercise of the full privileges and the performance of the duties of citizenship to speed the attainment of the highest state. I wish for an America no less alert in guarding against dangers from within than it is watchful against enemies from without. Our fundamental law recognizes no class, no group, no section. There must be none in legislation or administration. --- We want an America of homes illumined with hope and happiness, where mothers, freed from the necessity for long hours of toll beyond their own doors, may preside as the heartstone of American citizenship. We want the cradle of American childhood rocked under conditions so wholesome and so hopeful-that no blight may touch it in its development, and we want to provide that no selfish interest, no material necessity, no lack of opportunity shall prevent the gaining of that education so essential to best citizenship. --- I accept my part with single-mindedness of purpose and humility of spirit and implore the favor and guidance of God in His Heaven. With these I am unafraid and confidently face the future. I have taken the solemn oath of office on that passage of Holy Writ wherein it is asked, "What doth the Lord require of thee but to do justly and to love mercy, and walk humbly with thy God." This I plight FORUM LEON 5. HALFT Lincoln 18. Williams College, 22 MILK AND WATER MEN UNTIL THE NEWNESS WEARS OFF. PHILADELPHIA READER DISCOURSES ON RELIGION AND POLITICS. To the Editor: Please find space in the editorial columns of your most noted paper for me to express myself in the way of congratulation to you for the stand in which you so splendidly took against the minister being in politics and trying to lead their flock. It was in last November that I read of it, and the threats that they made to boycott your paper. With regret make this statement again for publication that the sole cause for the race's Bemumness in spiritual things is because that those who have, and are posing, as the ministers of God have failed to tell the common people what God has said, they have not given the people an unadultrated gospel, but adulterated one. As we look out in the world of mankind today we behold with pity, the condition of man, who desire comfort, advice. The preacher should be the one to give comfort, and advice but he should be affiliated with these graft system, taking money from his congregation, and from the politicians too. They have taken away from the people the key of knowledge and will not enter themselves, nor will they allow others to go in. Luke 11:52. The Prophet Isaiah says, His watchmen are blind; they are all ignorant, (of course this is more then I would say all) they are all dumb dogs, they cannot hark; sleeping lying down, loving to slumber. Yea they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand; they all look to their own way, every one for his gain from his quarters. (JSa 56:10. May God through His Son Jesus Christ arouse these men who are claiming to be, watchmen, that they may be able to give unto the household of 10 with a pure gospel, and not this JIM-CROW stuff called religion and buying old second hand churches paying almost twice as much as they are worth making the white man richer, and then begging him for equal rights.

MOORE By the Associated Negro Press Any effort which attempts to fix Woodrow Wilson's place in American history, at this time, will fail. The place that many of us have in mind for him may be too low or it may be too high. The forces that put him into the foreground of one of the crucial periods in the life of the Republic have lost something of their intensity in spirit and we are now being urged to situations of morale that will reshape our viewpoints and soften our judgments. And yet it would be an extremely difficult matter to trace to his administration the origin of any constructive, practical bit of statecraft. Exceedingly eloquent in its presentation of socialistic imputations the administration of the twenty-eighth President has been woefully hesitating and weak in its application of principles to the inexorable exigencies of the flux and flood of present-day social inclination. A distant temper of internationalism—the internationalism which brings wider acquaintance with the customs, qualities of character and social stamina of the scattered varieties of social organizations throughout the world—has come within the range of our life experience and we are fluttering and fuming in a frantic search or solutions. Mr. Wilson has not illumined our pathway. I dare not question his ability to do so but, certainly, I have an unquestioned right to point to his failure in this connection. Failure, however, is not always an unfailing sign of nonachievement. Perchance the times were not as ripe for action as they were for preachment. If so Mr. Wilson was fully justified in leaving the nation's "Race Problem" precisely where he found it—unsolved, tanzalizing and strife-provoking. It is a real pity that we can not dissociate the "Race Problem" from the National Problem. For, as stressingly impressive as the world's social problems stand in our presence, we can not escape the equally impressive fact that we must be nationally sound and compact before we can safely take on the responsibilities of binding international relationships. An intelligent, progressive Negro citizenry in the State of Georgia is more clearly related to the healthy development of American ideals than improbable relief for Christian Armenia from the unprintable barbarities of Mohamedan Turkey. Mr. Wilson was admittedly incapable of lifting himself out of the narrower restrictions of the American social interpretation the organic impulses o the purpose of Democracy. Hence, as a statesman, he was a failure. This estimate can not be accepted, justly, as final. Yet the temptation is very strong to remember that the largest figure in the history of the Republic—Lincoln—holds firmly to his high place because his fame rests on the bed rock of social emancipation—the very soul of the truest being of Democracy. However, may I not add my extreme desire that Woodrow Wilson's last days may be his best and his longest? 一 "SUBSTITUTES" By William Pickens To offer a "substitute" is always a real, the an indirect and sometimes unintentional, tribute to the original. "This is just as good as the other" is always an unqualified acknowledgment of the goodness of the "other." Now we find the white men in many parts of the South saying to colored men over whom they have some advantage or influence: "Him, don't you Nigrahs in this town join that National Association, for the Advancement of the Nigrahs. Those are smart Northern Nigrahs. You all start an organization here of your own, and we white folks will help you." Amen! They did not want you to organize anything fifteen years ago, before the National Association came into existence; but now as an offset (and a compliment) to that association, they are urging "our Nigrahs" to have a local "society" and get the support of local "sentiment," as if the colored people all over the South were not desperately in need of something vastly superior to the Local sentiment! General Officers Only Miss K. C. (cooly, to humble walking delegate, who has just picked up her handkerchief)—'Thank you, but if I should happen to drop it again please don't bother. It wasn't you I meant.' We are making no apologies for this column. We expect to conduct it as most other similar columns are conducted, with a lot of stale jokes. The real funny part of this column is the fact that we attempt to write jokes. Stephen Graham, white of England, traveled thru the United States recently in order to study colored people. His impressions are set down in a volume just published by McMillan Company. The following is his description of service in a colored church in Virginia. "One day I went in at a chapel door. The building was full every seat taken. Parched cotton was a black woman all in black with a large jet cross on her broad bosom. She was reading from the first book of Samuel, and I was given a seat under her throne. --- The woman in black was a plain woman with with a powerful will, a great voice, and a rare knowledge of the bible. She preached from the text, "Saul hid himself among the Stormers," and began to make the application. It was no she hiding from God, for he would find you out. So rousing were her simple words, and such was the atmosphere she was begetting in the midst of her congregation, that I had to do everything in my power to avoid breaking down under the pressure. "Come to me to a feminine voice, knit crying out: 'Help her, Lord, help her.'" --- Meanswhile the Reverend Norah up above was urging us all to come out from behind our stuff. We are always hiding behind our business, behind our families, behind our bodies. The preacher is always behind us, the barbie chant which rose and fall and declaimed in rythmic grandeur and musie. "They are hiding behind their bodies, O Lord. "Yes, O Lord, they say they are sick, that they are ill, "at they cannot do this, and that they cannot do that because they are feeble in health. "O come out from behind that stuff. "You saw Saul hide behind his baggage, O Lord. LONG. "Our brothers and sisters are hiding there too." "Hiding behind their wealth— "Hiding behind their charity— "Hiding behind their houses and their clothes and their ears." "Yes and their nieces and husbands, "And other people opinions. "And other opinions." "You'll see them and bring them out." "You'll see them and bring them "I am hiding there right enough," broke out from the congregation and "Lord save us" "God help us." ```markdown ``` The whole mass of black humanity swayed under the power of emotion which the woman had kindled. They were about to stand in frenzy, and give the gospel shout of repentance, when something happened, the woman's strength gave way, and she slipped out of the chant into the ordinary voice. At once the spell was broken. "We had collection sang a rolling and clamorous hymn and all went home." One note further in the session, and there would be a great scene of conversion at the close of the service, and everyone would have decided to come out from behind his stuff, as the preacher recommended. But it is better for one's religion not to be converted every Sunday. EX-SLAVE FIRST TO CELEBRATE GEORGE WASHINGTON BIRTHDAY (From New York Sun) Who originated the celebrating of Washington's Birthday? It is said that the old Tammany Society was the first organization to hold a public observance, but even before the society was in existence, it is said, an old colored woman who lived at John and Cliff streets honored our first President's birthday. She invited the city officials to her home, where they lunched and honored George Washington. She was May Simpson, once a slave of Washington. The General set her free while living in the city and she opened a small store in the basement of her house where she sold milk, butter, eggs and cookies and pies of her own manufacture. She never forgot her former master's birthday nor did she let any of her friends or patrons forge it. Each year she baked a huge cake, which she called Washington's cake, and made a large quantity of pies once. Each anniversary morning the first men of the city call and partake of the cake and punch. She had a small leather trunk and a painting Washington had given her. When the guests were seated she would bring forth the trunk and exhibit it to her guests. The woman said she "was fearful that if also keen up the monitor display Washington was gone the forgotten A Bit Of Fun From The "Sphinx" Official Organ APA Fraternity Affectation When I see a youth with his pants rolled up.

When I see a youth with his gloves turned down And a cigarette stuck in his face; A horse cloth coat, and a loud checked vest; And a two-inch wide shoe lace; With a bunch of hair that covers his ears, And hear his line of senseless droll; I paw the sward, And say, "Oh Lord, "Was I ever that big a fool?"—Ex.

S This is the Twelfth Install "The White Man's Burden" A Story of Africa and the War as Predicted by Marcus Garvey By T. SHIRBYHODGE This is the Twelfth Installment of "The White Man's Burden" "When you return to your people for good," he said, "you are welcome to take all the money you want, and also to load your pockets with all the gold, silver and gems you think you can earn, and you will be able to buy them and they are little used. A few of the younger women seem fond of precious stones as ornaments, but are rather looked down upon for it by their companions, who mostly prefer flowers. We use them chiefly in architectural work, where ornamentation of a special kind is thought desirable. In these other boxes," and he opened two of them to show me, "are monies of other nations in the Western Hemisphere and of many on this side of the ocean in Europe and Asia, for the other peoples are not yet quite as far advanced as we are, and still cling to many of their old habits. But they are progressing. They are progressing. But now let us be off. It is nearly four o'clock, and that is the hour I had fixed upon for our journey." So we left the building, I with my brain in a whirl, and he with the steady dignified gait which so became him. We directed our steps toward his house. On arriving there we saw nothing of the rest of the family, but found food upon the table, and we sat down and partook of it with appetite. After the meat he took me to the rear of the house, and I have the opportunity to see at once my friend of the traveler a suit of flying machines. These were two standing side by side, so much larger than the other and of somewhat different construction. "This is the one we take," he said, and immediately began to busy himself about the larger of the two. He went over it carefully on every side, examining everything minutely. He heard the gentle whir now and then indicated. When he was satisfied, he turned to me with the remark: "Everything is ready, but it may be rather cool over the water, and I will get some wraps. Don't middle with the machine while I am gone," and he entered the house. The caution was entirely unnecessary, for I would not have touched the thing with a ten foot pole. But I took the opportunity to walk around it and view it from all sides. It looked to me like a sort of coach body set and firmly fixed upon a platform, which extended a couple of feet or so on each side of it. In front was what I took to be a windshield, highly polished, and I have no idea what the material was. At the rear was a sort of dartboard and a applique, the latter directed backwards, but apparently provided with a sort of universal joint enabling it to be shifted in any direction, though how such a joint could be compatible with the necessary stability and security I could not imagine. In the coach we comfortable seats and several small wheels and levers, whose uses, of course, I was unable to divine. And now my friend emerged from the building with a load of stuff and came over. He threw the wraps on the seats and tucked several small packages underneath. "Food for the journey," he said, and walked around the machine, making a final inspection. "Well, we are ready now. Take your seat, please," and I did so, at the same time folding one of the soft blankets or robes about me with a curious feeling that this was to be the most momentous experience of my lifetime. The Negro walked around the machine for the last time, took his seat beside me, wrapped his robes about him, and turned a small whel directly in front of his seat. The machine rose steadily in the air, in a vertical direction without any preliminary start in contact with the ground, until we had reached a considerable height, which I was unable to estimate, having never ascended in a balloon or aeroplane before. When things began to look pretty small below, and I thought we must be at least a mile up he swung a small lever on his right hand and a huge pair of wings, which I had not seen in my cursory survey of the machine so nicely had they been folded or tucked away, shot out from the sides rising and curving a little higher than the body itself, like the wings of a monstrous bird. They were motionless, and in reply to my question, I got a curt reply that they were in use simply to maintain an even keel and preserve a proper balance. He was still busy with his manipulations, and I understood that War I must remain quiet for a time. We now stop rising, swong around and headed, so far as I could judge from the compass, in a bee line toward the northwest. The bounding of his legs and keen eyes and my companion settled back, in his seat with a grunt of satisfaction. Yes, he said, seeing my look of interruption, this is money. You see we do hays to use it once in a wail! Whenever my duty calls me to the other side, I have to take some with me for use in those places. Once in a while, too, one of our young people will take a motion to see something of the world, and he comes here and takes what he thinks, he shall need." So saying, he took a considerable sum from the church and took it away in his clothes. He also took several motifs of gold, with a purpose which I very rapidly right a wail with small reedy tears stretched seemed to covered ahead, and see the cove SYNOPSIS OF THE PRE- CEDING CHAPTERS Begin now on the most gripping serial you have ever read. In the Year of our Lord 2250, Negroes of the United States competed so hotly with the whites for the business of the country 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 artillery which used centrifugal force and required no explosive. 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. We passed down a long corridor, with the same exquisite finish of walls and flooring and entered angled, superspace room, which proved to other storeroom. There were never be the soils already in the room. Cleral perival, but they paid us on our instrument of only a cursor, the compliment on with the back glance and brought them their business that had lined with shelves. The walls were kinds of goods being containing all that I was kept, and as I gazed about one, I found a humbled somewhat of a general country store, or of a large department store, in the city, where everything needed can be purchased without leaving the building. There textures, barrels and boxes of merchandise, bins containing grains, coffee, and the like, chemicals, in fact all kinds of supplies required for utility or comfort. There were several attendants, alert young men and women, who did up packages as required, or directed those who carried but other receptacles to the places where they would find the articles they were after. Of course, after what I had already learned of this singular community, I did not expect to see any purchasing of goods or any use of money, but it seemed odd, nevertheless, to see no scatches or weighing machines in use anywhere. But on reflection I saw that they would have been superfluous, for each visitor took as much as he or she needed, and adjustments necessary for combinations of any kind would be done at home. Some of the callers had to ask for directions, but others went to the shelves or bins and helped themselves. Now we were looking about the room with new supplies, one of the men with what appeared to be small brass hardware of some kind, which he dumped on the floor and left for the attendants to sort out, the other with a huge copper wire, about as much as he could carry without staggering, which he also dumped on the floor, as he rubbed his shoulder, and the woman with a lot of woven stuff, which she carefully deposited with her over hands on the of the shelves containing other stuffs of similar up- "Everything here practically explains itself," remarked my friend. "But there are some bins that may interest you, who retain, I presume, some of the barbary tastes of your people," and he conducted me to the farther end of the apartment. What a sight was there! Precious stones and precious metals in profusion. Boxes full of gems, diamonds, rubies, emeralds, cut and uncut, bins half filled to the brim with gold, silver and copper, in pins and sheets. As we were looking them over, a man came up and began running over the plates of gold. My guide held a brief conversation with him and then told me that the Negro was a plumber, and was selecting some sheets of metal for the lining of a bath巾 "It is for my next door neighbor, he explained: "who had had, a silver lining, but finds it tarnishes too easy, and he is having it replaced by gold, like mine, which the greatly admires. He said, another Negro came along and carefully threw several ingots of gold into the bin containing the others. "A miner," said my friend, and let me a little way along the wall to a row of metal boxes, one of which he opened, simply raising the lid, for it was unlocked. Inside, to my surprise I saw money, bills and coin, not one like what I had been more or less familiar, with since childhood. did not learn until afterwards. CHAPTER XV We are now scudding along at a very rapid rate. I could see on our right a vast extent of settled country with small houses such as I had, already seen so many of, and on our left stretched a considerable territory that seemed to be unsettled, much of it covered with fences, straight ahead, and that the distance I could see the ocean. Now I thought, is the time for me to draw out, a little more information from this black phenomenon, and so I ventured to ask. away for the journey we are taking, seem to me hardly enough for a trip of six or seven thousand miles. By the way, where do you expect to land? "Somewhere in the vicinity of New York. Probably on some small island near the eastern end of Long Island. I have a number of friends there, who will receive me as guest for a short stay, and meet me with an appropriate change of clothes. We have to provide for that beforehand, for it would never do to allow this machine to be inspected by a white man, or to have someone else inspect it. I have there for. As to the food supply, how long do you suppose we are going to be in making that distance?" "Oh, a week or so," I replied. "The trip will take us about thirty-five hours," he said with a smile; "we are going now about two hundred miles an hour, which will carry us seven thousand miles in thirty-four hours, and bring us to our stopping place at three o'clock in the morning on thereabouts. I will always calculate hundred miles to make the few miles when we are approach- avoid detention, during the night, to action." Thor, he added: "You see, we are all ready over the water." And sure enough we had begun to cross the ocean, which rolled, and heaved far below. Now we began to descend and were soon racing along only a hundred feet above the surface, where we could hear the noise of breaking water and the sound of rising high. In a few minutes we were out of sight of land, and shooting ahead like a shot from a canon. It began to grow a little cool as the evening drew on, and the Negro bent over and adjusted some small apparatus near the floor, the nature of which I could not discern. As he straightened himself up he said briefly: "It will be cool during the night, and we must be warmed up a little. Sure enough, in a few minutes, I felt a gentle warmth stealing around me, warming the seat I occupied, warming my feet, and warming to some extent even the air of the coach in which we were traveling. I felt a bit nervous. After all I had seen and learned I had so much confidence in my companion that I felt as safe as if I had been traveling in a Palluman car. Neither of us spoke for a while, but presently he turned to me and smiled. "I am going to give you a bit of a surprise," he said, "but don't be frightened, whatever may happen." So saying he gave the small wheel directly in front of his seat, a vigorous twist, and we shot upwards with a velocity that scared me half to death. The air rushed by me from above, where we were not protected so well as in front, with a force and a loud whistling that made me speecless. On my seat, expecting my moment to be blown away, and my face must have expressed vividly the horror and fright I was suffering from, for he glanced at me he gave the wheel another twirl and we fell rapidly to our former level, and continued to forge straight ahead. "I merely wanted to give you a little lesson," he said, "but I am sorry it affected you so unpleasantly. That was the effect of the moon. I shut off our connection with the earth entirely for a moment, and so the attraction of gravitation drew us upward. It would not have taken us long to rise out of our atmosphere. I see your nose is bleeding. I did not mean to go so high." "The moon!" I exclaimed, hardly yet recovered from my nerve-wrecking experience. "The moon, to be sure. In the ordinary use of these machines we cannot, of course, cut loose from the earth. How to graduate the pull downward so as to allow us to rise easily and maintain any level we choose in the air, was an extremely difficult problem, and one that our scientists were at work upon for nearly five hundred years before it was solved. Our methods are now perfected. By an ingenious arrangement of ropes, we can pull a machine, with myriads of minute perforations of the insulating material, we are able to regulate the pull downward and set it off against the pull upward of the sun or moon, so that we can remain suspended at any level we please. The balance alone sometimes troubles the novice. Here we are, for instance, over the ocean. We cannot fall. There are no boilers or cylinders or tanks to explode, as in your aeroplanes. There is no fuel to leak away. There is no possibility of breakage in any part of all of our mechanics, work being done, no money and no time limit, is absolutely flawless. There is nothing that can break under the application of any force short of a bolt of lightning. If that should strike us, of course, it would be the end of everything for you and me. But such chances are infinitesimal and we may disregard them. But the great danger for the novice is that of turning turtle in a heavy and unexposed body, or that we greatly well provided against any thing of the sort, however, by the wing and by the fact that the center of gravity of the body of the machine lies low. We have, in addition, at the sides and near the edge of the floor, numerous small slides, by the manipulation of which we can lift the machine to one side or the other as little or as much as we please. This requires constant, attention, and THE AFRO-AMERICAN STUNT FLYER ARRESTED Charge Is Made That He Charged Into Group For Fun. (By the Associated Negro Press) Pensacola, Fla.—Naval Ensign John Walter Alcorn is under arrest here charged with wilfully killing five colored persons who were bathing in the surf last Tuesday afternoon.

It makes a very simple, intensive shampoo, which cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly of all the dandruff, dirt and excess oil, leaving a wonderfully clean, cholesome feeling. After its use, you will find that the hair dries quickly and evenly, is never streaked in appearance and is always bright, soft and fluffy; so soffty, in fact, that it looks more abundant than it is, and so soft that arranging it becomes a pleasure. Just use a teaspoonful of canthrox, which you can get from any good drugstore, dissolve it in a cup of hot water; this makes a fall cup of shampoo liquid. Enough so it is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just the top of the head. Free trial offer. Send two cents to cover postage. Address: H. S. Peterson & Co. Dept. 213 W.

The letter was signed by Galen Tait, secretary of Wm. P. Jackson, president, and followed the recent conference of senators and congression from the state in Senator France's office last week. The letter continues: "We urge strongly upon you the importance of the fullest possible recognition in your appointments for colored Republicans of Maryland." LOCAL MEN INCENSED Incensed by the duplicity of the Republican leaders, and their hypocrisy in gobbling every job in Maryland for themselves and the asking President to give, give the republicans of the state "fullest recognition," was the subject of comment downtown during the week. So angry was the small "committee of 5" intrusted with the duty of calling together of the larger Joke Committee of the state that they informed us that they that they informed the committee, giving no reason therefore, but leaving the inference of their displeas- A.

Georg Harvey, the folks from the National Association for Public Speakers, the Public Speaker, Senator Jim Reed, Hiram Johnson and others could not get in, and bless my soul Mrs. Harding had ordered the gates unlocked. I went right in, strolled around on the grass an saw everybody there but Ralph Tyler, and they tell me I was going to man from Ohio that was not there. "Bill Fitzgerald was on hand trying to see how he would fit in that Recorder of Deeds job, Doc Lyon told somebody that he was ready to go right back to Africa right now and Judge J. H. H. H.

As a white man it was natural for me to go to white doctors. And I went to the best in Baltimore. One thing, and another, I had something to do. I tried hospitals. They did me no good, and I grew worse all the time. A friend he had cured recommended me to Dr. David N. Campbell. Being a Specialist, 1369 North Care Street. At first I hesitated, but I finally went to him. After examining him he laughed and said he was sorry for me. He told me about my concern for other physicians touched 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 head. He has 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 out of hundreds. He has wonders, and I am not, afraid to tell FARMERS March: Suggestions for Maryland Farmers by I. F. Armstrong. Upon investigation, find that fertilizer may be bought at a much lower figure than is usually quoted. The following will explain the situation to a great extent. The Market agent for Louisiana came to Washington and Baltimore to get a line on prices for approximately 100 carboids of fertilizer, mainly of acid phosphate. It is found the market decided a buyers market and the farmers were inclined to go slowly in quoting prices unless they could place a direct order, before the agent left one dealer quoted 16 per cent acid phosphate in bulk at $13 per ton and ammonium sulphate at $2.25 per hundred, bagged. Another dealer asked $17 for 16 per cent acid phosphate, bagged, but when told that buyers would not be interested at this price it is good as said that when buyers would not be placed an order we would sell at $15. The freight rates from Baltimore to Louisiana points, by rail, are around petroleum, but freight rates by boat are only about $2.5. The number of boats available for transportation. It would appear, therefore, from the agent experience that fertilizers may be bought much below the present market if the matter is handled in the proper way. From what information we can get it is useless to write or wire for quotations since you would only get prices corresponding to the current market of ownworth $77 per ton for acid phosphate. However, if a personal representative with cash orders for a considerable quantity of material will approach the dealers and brokers in the right way. There is no question but what fertilizer, such as acid phosphate, may be bought in Baltimore at $15.00. No doubt at least some of the Baltimore dealers have branch houses or plants in the Southern markets so that similar prices may probably be secured in that territory, especially at such locations such as Charleston, Savannah, Jackson Mobile, New Orleans and Galveston.

There was the "family upstairs" for instance slamming doors, talking aloud and dropping shoes on the floor late at night; the milkman who comes around every day with the same old tale; the cabaret singers across the street, who apparently sing for "loudness" instead of for "harmony." There is one reader who is bored by the large number of members of his church who are called to "preach." Coupling men and women he says the number is around forty, and their narratives have gotten his foot right along. Mr. Thompson's Letter First prize goes to a. Virginia father of three boys.

Arthur only had one dollar with him and let that, saying he would call back with the other dollar and get the license. "Some folks will never learn that a license costs two dollars now," mused the genial clerk as he put the license back into the drawer. Just before Brown appeared was a minister who asked for a license for a couple. "One or the other of the contracting parties will have to appear," said Clerk O'Neal, as he contemplated the minister who did not know that the last legislature had passed such a law. ل THE AFRO-AMERICAN Contest own state, -manner to to the win- ght, March usquehanna automac emp- the Western 509 Costu- cret Equ K Para- De Special .....
