Arrangements have been made between the city School Board and the trustees of the Maryland Home for Friendless Colored Children for the establishment of a parental school for boys on the home's property at Catonsville. The School Board will erect two parental buildings and pay so per capita. Hawthorne Smith, superintendent of the home, will be principal of the school.

Declare President Durkee Exceeded Authority In Naming Philadelphia As Health Professor
Salary Of Dr. McNeil Decreased From $3,000 To $1,200 A Year
Special to AFRO-AMERICAN Washington, D. C. July 20—Appointment of Dr. A. B. Jackson, superintendent and surgeon-in-chief of Mercy Hospital in Philadelphia, as professor of Health and Hygiene, in Howard University Medical School, and the removal of Dr. William C. McNeil from his position of secretary of the Howard Medical College, called forth protests from the faculty of the Medical School and from the Alumni of the University resident community.
Dr. McNell who has been secretary of the Howard Medical School for the past fourteen years was removed from his position in 2000 for $3,000 per year, and made Professor of Gynecology, which carries with it a salary of of only $3,500 per year. Action was taken by the Association of President Durkee, who says expenses of the administration were too heavy. Secretary McNell's place will be taken by a Clerk receiving only $200 per year. Although University authorities moved Secretary McNell, as they said, in order to cut down pensions, they have placed a position in leadership in public health and hygiene at a salary of $3,500 per year which they offered to Dr. Jackson. The new position will be made paid office in the medical school.
At its recent meeting, the faculty of the Medical School sent a letter to each member of the Trusted Board opposing the -the ground that to Dr. Jackson's care the ground that professors were to be created, it should go to the older professors of the -University, who have labored and -sacrificed often without pay. to -the University is, and not to -stranger.
They also declared that President Durkee made the appointment of Dr. Jackson without their knowledge, while the University charter expressly confers the right of appointment upon the medical faculty.
President Durkee's creation of a new professorship in Health and Hygiene several months ago, but he made the appointment anyhow over their heads at the last trustee meeting.
President May Resign
So bitter has become the controversy between the President and the Medical School faculty that it is declared, that several of professors and instructors will resign forthwith. Jackson takes the blame. The Philadelphians in the city last week and conferred with President Durkee and Dean Balloch of the Medical School over the field.

Baltimoreans In Washington To Make Final Plea For Condemned Man
EVIDENCE STARTLING
Light Truned On Cruelty And Probable Implication Of Naval Officer
Starting testimony to establish an alibi for Henry Brown, convicted in the United States Court for the alleged murder of Harriet Kavannaugh, white Naval Academy nurse, was presented to the Deton Monday by Attorney J. Stewart of Justice at Washington Davis and a local commissioner, US Attorney Finche, who is in charge of pardoning, listened attentively as various indictments were presented to show that Brown was in Baltimore at the time the案件 was taken place in Annapolis. The evidence will be submitted to Attorney General Daughtery, who will report his recommendations to the President. The condemned man has been reprieved twice by the President, the second one expiring August 1.
Much of the testimony hinged around the allegation that Brown was with Stella Maynard, allas Brown, the time the woman was said to be murdered in Annapolis, and stayed with her until the following day, January 14, 1915. Provo Alibi
Mrs. Annie Rhebottom and Zachariah Jackson, both of 632 Greenwillow street, submitted amdavita that they saw Brown in Pennyam vana lane and Hoffman stree on the evening of January 14, ar that they were apparently their warrior, and that amdavita was submitted, from Joseph Maynard, the husband of Stella, claiming that his wife asked him to swear, before the federal grand jury at the time Brown claimed she was with him. Allea Stewart and Mrs. Florence Matthews swore that they saw Brown in Baltimore at the time, of no murder was said to have been
Testimony was submitted from a white man named Morgan, of Brown's death watch, that Stella visited Brown at the fall, when she asked if he wanted her to provide for his burial. He is said to have asked why she testified against him, and that her reply was that she was afraid of her aunt, "Foote" by Copa. Assertion was also made, that after Brown had given himself as a deserter from the United States Cumberland, that the society at policeman's house in the House of Correction on a prostitution charge' if she testified that Brown was staying with her at the time of murder was committed. Similar threats were have been made to a woman at whose house that alleged to have stayed.
The records of the Naval Board of Inquiry were resorted to show that it was at first that the murder was committed, by a man and that the murderer, wore a peat coat and wore none, so the police he surrendered at the Northwestern Police Station on a desertion charge.
It was also hinted that the woman had four or five white admirers and that on the night the murder she considered to be nurse was to face an issue that she was afraid of. It was also brought out that a white orderly, to whom the dead woman had ad-

ENGLISH OVER-ARM STROKE
The stroke is a side or single over-arm stroke, although it is harder to perform than a stride to achieve than the crawl. It is a very restful stroke, and valuable in distance swimming. The big stroke is the scissors kick explained in the preceding article.
The body lies low in the water in this stroke, only one arm being visible. Position for stroke—the under arm is thrust forward under water, and as it is swept backward and downward the upper arm is thrust into the water in front of the head. As the under arm completes its stroke the upper arm is swept backward across the front of the body.
The leg-kick follows as the under arm is recovering for the next stroke. The leg kick is a powerful impulse which sends the body gliding through the water. By taking the stroke in this one-two-three fashion, the smoothest and fastest progress is made. As the upper arm is raised, the body submerges so that the full power of the stroke is used in driving the body forward, and none is wasted holding the weight above the surface. As the body submerges, the breath is expelled through the nose. As the upper arm stroke is made the body rises slightly and the head is turned up. And as the face comes close to the mouth is opening a full breath is taken. In all swimming strokes the breathing exercise is important.
A very common fault with swimmers is keeping the body too high out of the water. It requires more force to keep the body an inch too high than is needed to propel it a foot through the water. Always allow the body to swallow in the water keeping the head and shoulders low on the feet as high as possible. If the feet are held low, they form a frag and impede the forward progress. Nothing but patience and practice will enable you to acquire these things. Don't expect to learn them in a day, or even in a week. D. C. INTEREST IN GOLF GROWS New Course In W. Potomac, Park Reserved Entirely For Colored People
Washington, D. C., July 20.—As an evidence of the fact that interest in golf is growing here in the District, 'Col. C. O. Sherill, white, made the following announcement this week:

PUBLIC ATHLETIC LEAGUE AGTIVE
Making Special Effort To Interest Boys And Men In Advantages Of Athletics
As a result of the low physical standard that was revealed when thousands of supposedly perfect specimens of American manhood came up for examination during the 1960s, the Public Athletic League has taken on new activity in the matter of athletic sports and is trying to interest more boys—and grown-up men as well—in the physical advantages that are to be derived from the practice of athletic sports. C. Fredoicks, white, assisted by Mr. B. Bernard Webb and Mr. Llewellyn Wilson who have charge of the League's work among colored boys, are conducting a variety of athletic activities which they hope will interest a greater number of boys than has than has ever heretofore. Some of the events are as follows: On each Friday afternoon at 6 P. M. until September 10 an "All-For-Glory" track and field meet will be held. These meets are the preliminary meet of the Municipal State meet which will be held on the date above noted.
Every second and fourth Friday in badge test race will be held, and all those who win bronze and silver badges will be eligible to compete. Badges will be held throughout the balance of this month and August.
Mr. Fredericks and his assistants are also organizing the Droid Hill Athletic Club for boys from 8 years old up, to men 80 years old. 150 man-age teams of 1,000 is the number they want, and all who are interested in their physical condition are invited to join.
Some of the features that the man-age will offer will be track and field events, quit-training, play-ground ball, volley ball, dodge ball and speed ball.
Every Wednesday instructions will be given by those in charge, in the various games as well as coaching in the track and field event.
The enrollment in the colored division of the Public Athletic League has reached 625, but this says Mr. Fredericks, is not a remarkable number considering the large colored pools of the city. He wanted
It is also announced that every boy in grades 9 through 12 in grades will be given to boys and girls under 8 years of age, by Miss (white) assisted by Miss Rappitt.

According to Washington's police census there are 114,632 colored people in the nation's capital. The census figures for 1920 show a population of only 100,000. We suggest that some folks in D. C. keep still long enough to keep the police from counting them twice.
Agitation has purnin in the South for the division of Texas into five states, each of which will of course have two Senators in Congress. The idea is trotted out because it may happen that Congress will reduce representation in the South, and what the crackers lose in the house they can make up in the Senate. Can you beat it?
THE BROWN CASE
On his face, the case of Henry Brown now before President Harding for a decision, will result in the Annapolis sailor getting a pardon, or at least a commutation of sentence.
This is now apparent in spite of the meddling of Governor Ritchie in a United States Government case, and despite the fact that everyone is certain of the fairness of court procedure under trial judge Rose.
The case, however, is an example of how injustice is perpetrated upon colored people in Maryland even when the judge is impartial.
Brown's attorney in Washington showed un discrepancies in the statements of High naval officers, who justified one thing before the Naval Board and another before the Civil Court. He brought out the fact that the police put the accused through a third degree, and threatened witness; and finally that the defense put up by Brown's white attorney at the trial was almost criminal in its weakness.
It is impossible for the Negro to get justice in Maryland when accused of crimes against the opposite race as long as the police power, the state's attorneys, and the juries are deemed positions too high for a colored man to fill.
"LET'S GO"
"Produce, Produce, for God's Sake Produce" declared Thomas Carlyle, the English writer, somewhere in his "Sartor Resartus" and in effect he went on. "It makes no difference, how poor the article is, if it is the best you have send it out."
There is nothing startling about the Marine Exhibition being held by leading shipbuilding plants of the city at the Fifth Regiment Armory. Either Phila adalphia, New York or even a city like Newark, N. J. might have surpassed it ten times. It was the best Baltimore could produce, however, and it was not ashamed of its products.
With the proper cooperative spirit among the colored business men of the city next fall, an exhibition might be staged, in the Richmond Market Armory or some other place showing the products of colored Baltimore.
It ought to include model garages, homes and buildings by Messrs. Seakolns, Johnson and other contractors; bottled goods by the Johnson Bottling works, ice cream from Messrs. Clark, Hicks and others; clothing and shoes from Burton and other stores; frocks from dressmakers; hats from Mrs. Gilman and leading modistes; brooms from the Broom Shop, renewed furniture from the second hand shops, plaster parts models of McDonough Heights, Morgan, Turners and High Ridge Parks, fraternal orders might use charts and colored pictures to show the desirability of joining them and the progress they have made; banks and insurance companies could do the same thing and in addition give away sample banks to prospective depositors; professional men, dentists and pharmacists could make a showy display, of their wares; and painters, cementers and plasterers could display model houses, pavements, etc.
In fact the possibilities of such an exposition for the colored media at the city would be infinitely, and
the opportunity for acquainting the masses of the people with the work, that is being done in some cases under a "bushel measure," hardly comprehensible.
The only thing lacking among the business men of the city is the grease of cooperation. Conditions are waiting on some one more far seeing than the rest to say, "Let's Go."
THE FIRST GUN
The first gun of the Civil War was fired at Fort Sumter in South Carolina. The first gun of the movement to drive the Negro out of the Republican party of the South was fired in the Virginia State Republican Convention, held in Richmond last week. The first movement resulted in the liberation of the slaves; the second is aimed to reinslave him. Democrats and rebels fought to keep the Negro a slave sixty years ago. Today Republicans stand by the side of those Democrats to help bind their shackels. Such changes time affects in a few decades.
The action of the Virginia Republican State Convention last week was an insignificant thing in itself. It excluded all Colord delegates whether they had proper credentials or not. Republican Conventions have been doing this since the days of reconstruction. The really significant part of the proceedings is that this exclusion was done at the suggestion and with the connivance of the National Republican Party, headed by President Harding, and the movement started as an experiment is simply an illustration of what is to be done through the South. The aim is to have a party in the Southern States, normally Democratic, in which all councils deliberations and naming of candidates will be done by "white folks." After this is all over, there will be no objection to the "colored brother" voting. This is the program, and the object is to build up a strong lily white Republican Party in the South. It may be strong in numbers, but it will be weak in the fundamental principles of justice, fair play, Americanism and constitutional government.
Abu Lincoln who knew a thing or two about the workings of human history and what if today called philosophy, declared that a nation could not exist half slave and half free. If applying that same logic to the proposed Republican party we, would say that the Republican party cannot Jones exist half American and half ill white.
"Competition is at the bottom of all our trouble," remarked the philosopher.
Tulsa has been a shining example of economic progress. The wealth is higher per capita there, among Negroes than in any other American city of size. This commercial success baited jealousy, among a certain class.
The Klux of Mobile have sent out notices that no colored physicians will henceforth be permitted to have white patients.
The American Federation of Labor, at its annual convention in Denver, frotted at the mouth, sputtered and growled, when the resolution was presented to AGAIN, wipe out the "Color Line."—it was "wined out" once, last year, it will be recalled.
There are 3,000,000 white people out of work in the United States at this time. In ratio of population, there are more whites unemployed than there are colored.
The man who "has not," generally feels pretty much out of sorts with the fellow who "Has,"—altho that is quite un-American in principle. This is supposed to be a "land of the free and home of the brave" where every fellow is glad to see the other fellow get along.
Competition means rivalry, and rivalry carried a little farther means fearlessy, and fearlessy carried on at all means bitterness, and bitterness leads to fights, riots, lynchings, fire, and all other anarchical results.
It is high time to quit waving the redshirt of hatred; but that does not mean to put up the white flag of surrender. There is one way out. National life is like marriage --- it is ever a subject of adjustment. The happily married couples are ones who use good sense in sitting their differences. There is too much of the "Jigs and Maggie" attitude between the white and Colored Americans.

Uncle Sam reminds us very much of a gambler who has won nearly all of the money in sight, and is anxious to quit playing for fear his opponents may win some of it back.
After all the word "disarmament" is a misnomer as employed by the several nations interested in the conference. What is meant as a "limitation" of armaments, by which it is designed to get each nation to agree to cut down its proposed expenses for building up a large navy and army.

Does anybody suppose that the big nations plan any such program for themselves? Nevertheless this is the only basis upon which there could be any real truce of nations. Any other basis but continues the mighty in their control and exploitation of the weaker nations. Therefore Japan laughs up her sleeve at Christian diplomacy and bends lower to catch the whisperers of her good gods.
THE MAN THAT ONCE WAS BRAWNY
His thoughts fly-back to days, of youth when he was young and gay. Those boy-hood days, a fashion plate, a man with health and money. But now he's in the poorhouse, boys—
The man that once was brawny.
Oft times he sits and thinks it o'er, extravagance is vain.
Oft times he sits and thinks it yet, exhortation is vain.
His eyes were dimmed thru gloom and grime in misery and pain
His hair is gray, his limbs are warped, his fingers thin and thorny.
As he sits there in the poorhouse, boys—
The man that once was brawny.
He often passed the old church door well dressed and full of vim
Ignored the parson's timely call, "come friend, pray friend, come in."
The church halls and sweet gospel songs to him, he tho' were funny
But now he's in the poorhouse, boys—
The man that once was brawny.
The God who made the mighty winds and walked out on the sea
The God who hung upon the cross and died for you and me
The God that has a home above sent angels on a journey.
And took him from the poorhouse, boys—
The man that once was brawny.

HOW DETROIT CLEANED UP BY ITS CHIEF OF POLICE
To the Miro-Americans:
I have your letter of June 25th asking how the colored sections of this city were handled during the drive which we made on crime in September.
It was in the colored section that our most intensive work had to do on the drive when passing through the worstened this city had known, an analysis of the situation showed that while the colored population of Detroit was just about five percent of the whole, or about 50,000 to a million, about forty percent of all crimes were punished by colored people, and in some crimes the percentage ran as high as sixty-five.
We had had for a couple of years a large infux of colored men from the South, attracted by the high wages which Detroit offered, and it was evident that most of our trouble was coming from that element. While all of the undergrads, prizes, and awards, were combed over, every night, the most intensive work was done among the colored and Italian people, who were catholic, all men who were concealed weapons.
In the beginning of the campaign I received protests from quite a number of our leading colored citizens who had been stood up on the street and arrested for their political delusions called upon me, but in every instance when I explained the situation to them and showed them the structures which I was keen out for the press and away out of the they arrested me for police and mobly and held them with the work and I think that, when we got through the better element of the colored population was convinced that we had done a lot of good. In ordinary times it was much as possible in colored sections and I believe they are of equal value in that work. They took an active part in our 'drive' but of course were reinforced by a large number of white officers during that time.

Evidently, the colored people who attend such chapel perform priests, for they voluntarily accept such ministrations, in when other case they could, if they desired avail themselves of colored priests, the same liberty which the great body of black people enjoy. But surely, a white congregation should not be for colored chooses, but for colored up, and placing that channel in the hands of white priests, there should be colored people who prefer those of their own color.
The Episcopal Church does not force white priests upon colored men, but rather allows colored men the Episcopal Church, was the very first body of white people, in this entire country to set the example of giving a color code to congregants. But it would be manifestly unjust for the church to deny to the few, who desire such, white pastors.
GEORGE F. BRAGG
Applauds Attorney General
All true friends of humanity will applaud the reply of Attorney Gen. Daughter Riechle to our Southern Governor Riechle in regards to the unfortunate case of Henry T. Barnes, the man who would railton Brown to death as they did Fountain Snowden and many others, if they could.
But the shielding of Uncle Sam has saved Brown Thursday for the discomfort of the white extremists.
Brown was treated in a manner most unnatural. Any one who was accused of escaping alone should escape the punishment that was accorded to Brown according to his statement. Cruelty and savage ruled the hour. The Court of Maryland ruled that the cruelty and insult of forcing confessions many times when the victims are innocent especially if the accused are of our race.
But right. The day is fast rule approaching when these Southern-back-breakers shall feel the halter. They don't seem to realize that they must reap, just what they
Every day brings news of fresh cutouts against our race. Our women are outraged and our men are outraged. This land of honored freedom by imbent white scum and the lovers of humanity. Say nothing in protest. We in America are not alone. We must take leadership. In the building of a nation in our mother land. Africa which in the riceness of time shall emulate our prestake (and then inevitable. ERNEST J. JACKSON

Now and then we read after some paper or person who accuses the colored American of not wanting to be a Negro or not shaming them. How can we such a person that often what appears as dissatisfaction with one's race is really a dissatisfaction with the COO? One may seem to be seeking another chance when he is only seeking a bettle chance. Black as a color, pansy as a color, black men have, more inconveniences artificially created for them in white-controlled countries, it is no more discertable, colored men in escape the inconveniences of being colored, than it is to white people that som of them want to anprolate and arrogate to themselves to escape the unmattered for NO CAUSEUP they are white and for no other reason. Colored people are not in resisy trvying to escape being black, but they are trying to escape the unmattered consequences of being black.
As long as colored Americans
colored, did rehabil, there will be a
colored, did rehabil, there will be a
tendency in at least some of them to escape these dangers even at the risk of their racial connections. That means only that colored people
The only thing to be wondered at is, that this tendency is not stronger. Many times we have honestly white peopleerve the write their surreptitious tents and tens of thousands of perfectly white Nergbeso, not avail themselves of easy opportunity to enter into the race, which they could do by simply changing their geographical location. The marvel that the great majority of people escape from the race" or rather to escape from what is not their race into what IS their race, for hundreds of thousands of them are far more Indian-Saxon than per cent Capacisation, even Indian-Saxon.
We will be blaming the Negro for being human, unless we think ourselves into feel how human it is. When the race riots were raging in Chicago, one white family who lived in a section surrounded by black faces and endowed to escape from that section. They were not ashamed to be white; they were white. They were not trying to escape from "their race"; they were trying to escape from death. Would they be ashamed of being "ashamed of their race" because they were trying for other, and entirely sufficient reason to look and act in a way reasonably accuse those white fugitives of not wanting to be white, as to accuse colored folk who try to escape blinding and insult, of not wanting

"There was a lumber yard nearby and a large amount of lumber was floating by, which the passengers selected to walk in a brick building which was formerly a brewery and the people who lived on the second floor there reached out of their dows and assisted the passengers

IMPORTANCE OF POLITICAL ACTION
Second Of A Series Of Articles
Written Expressly For The Afro-
American By A Member of
The Farmer Labor Group
About a century and a half ago, as a result of unjust taxation and other forms of arbitrity coercion, the men and women of this country came to a realization of the fact that a people must be self-governing "if it" would secure for itself justice and open opportunity. Consequently on July 4, 1776 a group of brave-paired men met together, drew up the Declaration of Independence and came out in open defiance of King George and the British rule. The American Revolution followed in the course of which many noble men laid down their lives for the cause of Liberty. They and their leaders believed that if the principle of Democracy could once be established in America, government would thenceforth serve the interests of all the people and would no longer be used merely for the exercise of unanticipated fow
benefit the middle of the following century another great war was waged for the purpose of freeing the colored people, and again brave men died in behalf of the war, but prevailed and the horrible institution of human slavery was hannished from this land. But still the fight for freedom was won for one half the race the other half, was still in bondage. For 60 years the women worked tirelessly, day and night that the end of the war that inflicted the war and at last in 1920 their efforts were crowned with victory. Through all this time endless bitter sacrifices were made for the sake of human freedom and what is the result of it
The colored people are, especially denied justice and an equal chance at every turn. The Business politicians believe they, have the colored people on the left, for no self-respecting, colored... person could vote the Democratic ticket and, consequently, the Republican ticket, and everyone else every time, and set away with it. What can the colored people and the other working men and women do? Why not organize a new party, the People's Party and turn the corrupt gang out all together. Let the colored people and the white people who desire justice and equal opportunities for all, together, organize and then institute a real government of the people... people. The workers, hold the vast majority of the votes in their own hands but organization is necessary. The people and the People's Party and make all the sacrifices that have been offered in the name of Democracy worth white.

Professor Edward L. Reed And Ex-President Knew
Professor Edward E. Reed, an instructor in the Virginia Seminary and College at Lynchburg, is over the elevation of former President Taft to the Chief Justiceship of the United States Supreme Court. Both were classmates at Tale, being among the 131 students graduates therefrom 1878. Mr. Reed was the only colored member of the class. Mr. Taft pleasantly about Mr. Taft, while seated in front of his home, 1024 W. Lexington street, the other day. Professor Reed said the new Chief Justice "is a man of broad human sympathies and ardous to do the right as he sees it." "I feel proud over, his elevation" said Mr. Taft's classmate. "He's so swept off his feet by popular hysteria. I was afraid once that President Harding would yield to such as the Borahs, Lafollette, and Johnson's and not appoint him."
President Harding is to my mind a sane type of man, and for that reason I have hopes for the best. Professor Reed was among those who attended the reunion of the class when he was in office when Mr. Taft was inaugurated.

The thieves took out what they did not want and then used the basket to carry away the items they had collected. However they overlooked a gold watch that belonged to Mr. Keen.
From Mrs. Twigw' they took silk dress and gold watch also. Mrs. Twigw' also lady boarder. Both Mrs. Kee and Mrs. Twigw' were away at the time. Mrs. Twigw' discover evidence as to how 'their homes were entered.

The Eva-Jenifer Neighborhood Club is now installed in its remodeled building at 1348 Calhoun street. This building was purchased about two years ago but was not in condition to permit the work the club complained. But in order to it lighten the burden by an overhanging debt while trying to carry on its work, it decided to rent the building until the necessary repairs could be made and paid for.

Handy, Mrs. Laura Wilson, Mrs. Ella Day, Laura Wilson, Mrs. Mamie Bruce and a number of other Christian women who believed that there was a larger field for their activities than that which strictly belonged to the church. Our first work was done among the children, but they soon discovered that as there were other organizations doing this sort of work, they found in looking after the welfare of working girls and women who lacked the advantages of home surroundings. This is the work that the Club has since carried on. The advantages that are now a part of the Club's program consist of roaming accommodations for 25 or more girls; a social and a women's clubs; a club for exercise, reading-room; room for exercise and recreation and Bible study once
In the fall classes in 'saving, cooking, housekeeping and home-making will be formed. The Club is doing strictly a community work, and is open all day to take advantage of the facilities it has to offer. Especially does it call to the attention of working girls and women the spendid home that can be found at the new home at rates as reasonable as can be found anywhere in the city. Mrs. Lucy S.

LUBRICATE THE SYSTEM
Many diseases of the intestinal tract may be cured by adding the proper amount of the food. Olive oil will only indicate the severity of the gastric juices, thus same time quiet the irritation of the mucous membrane. Olive oil is stomach and is one of our best remedies for diarrhoea. In dran doses every twelve hours has proven nearly as specific in typhoid as in ulcer of the stomach and is one of our best remedies for diarrhoea. It maintains the temperature below the danger point; permeates hemorrhage and will more severely shorten the disease. Olive oil will preserve hemorrhage and migraine and if persisted in will generally cure these distressing conditions. Cases of nausea have been reported eating fried pork and carcass is relieved by oil. When the intestines are properly
lubricated there will be no necessity for the use of cathartics as Nature will perform her functions well when supplied with the proper food and permitted to perform her work in her own way.

Bookkeeping Of Babies Shows
Large Waste Of Infant Life
Since 1415 the Federal Government has been able to keep a ledger for the birth registration showing the birth profit and loss terms of infant life. The figures are a five-year period are for 18 large cities in a brief report entitled "Infant Mortality in Pittsburgh," which has just issued by the U. S. Department of Labor through the Children's
Buffalo, the 3 largest cities in the Birth registration area since it was established in 1915, Washington, Philadelphia and New York show most satisfactory progress toward a reduction of rates, though Minneapolis has consistently retained the lowest rate. Pittsburgh lost more babies in proportion to its births than in any other of the 9
cities. Pittsburgh as a whole, in 1950, there was a loss during infancy of one life out of every 9. The rates varied greatly in different parts of the city, the rate in the new favorable ward being 177 deaths for every 1,000 births while in the most favorable ward the rate was 1,000.
Nearly one-half the babies who failed to survive died before they were a month old, when deaths are largely due to natal and premature causes. It has been demonstrated that deaths are large through care and instruction for the mother before the baby is born, and skilled care that the shortly after birth. Nearly one-fourth of the babies are caused by gastrointestinal diseases, by these causes occur in the most part in the heat of the summer. They can be reduced through instructions to mothers in
the proper care and feeding of
dont lables and through civic supervision
milk supplies, quality and proper
binding of milk supplies.
MILK stations, maternity and
baby clinics, and public health
address nursing service have been established in schools. An extension of such services is necessary if the child is to deal effectively with the cold problem of infant mortality, and if the ledger for the next five years is to show saving in infant life.

THE SCAR
No. Environment is not omnipotent, but it is so almost all-powerful that it deserves the major consideration in the making of a collection of blood-bles. Three fourths of the blood of one is from the same sources as three-fourths of the blood of the other. And, that other fourth of blood is just...human blood. In physical feature the greatest group of
couplets. But the divergence of their ways on earth, will carry them to differing destinies.
And which is which?
Why did Aunt Katy hug William so passionately who alone with him? And when alone with little Jimmie, did she sit
And why had Aunt Katy done this thing which "Miss Olive" feared would be done, and which the reader of this history must have this time suspect to have been for four and partie for revenge.
Foreign: Because she had often heard John Elliot tell us that he vengeance breached by one of his brothers on a "little n----gal" it seemed that the little color girl not quite knew whom his brother had whom she was supposed to
hourse and take care of, and that my carcassless or chickens I had to eat, little white child to come too near a boiling pot in which soap was being made. This child stumbled, overturned the pot and smashed it, and father then seized the little nurse and "cut both cars off; that little n----r----r. All the other color babies so that "nobody knew what became of the post of the little n----r gall" not even the parents of the colored children so that anyone knew what to the infurred demon who was responsible for her unrevealed fate. Aunt Mary really called this off request and remembered that as John Elliot was leaving on the day he had said something to her concerning William. Take a bite of bing. Elliot good, "for hell will be too good for any n----r if he gets hurt." So When the store moll on little William's lez, what was he doing? Another pair of little legs just like them, close at hand and perfectly sound?
For revenge: Because in the innermost recesses he loved the deepest human hate the courage which John Elliott had committed upon the innocence of her little Essie. He tempted her with an insult, tempted which Essie' and Essie' child had suffered from the Elliott's and their kin, but deepened this hate and fed this desire to kill him. John Elliott was the offender, the inspiration

to this deed had spoken in her like a tempting devil.
So---well---when the -Elliots returned from Europe. William had become quite fond of his New Orleans aunt, but looked strangely upon his parents which was "perfectly natural." He had to be won over by his mother and father, but that was soon done with a multitude of playthings and goodles.
What did the babes care?
We next see these two children when they are seven years old. How swift is the passage of childhood to the eye of the observer, the longest period of life---like But to the child it seems longer, great oceans of time.
In outward appearance these two boys had become less alike, so that now there was no mistaking between them, if they disregarded the illusions and vencer of this world's fortunes and saw only their essential features, they were still enough cared for to be the care of their bodies clearly distinguished them. Besides, each had now a personality which could never confuse him with William was well-dressed, well-shod, pampered and autocratic.

were the other difference----as if they were otherwise circumstanced alike----when as a matter of fact they were more equally endowed with "blood" than with any other thing. While William was an gutocrat, Jimme was a revolutionist; a radical. Ever and anon was the gutocrat forced to call loudly for aid from the greater powers against this unsudurable enemy, and others of the servants had often to succor the titled rossessor of the throne. Some of these encounters were naturally provoked by the rogance of the officer who the servants had often to overhear the conversations of his olders, and to understand that between him and Jimmie there was some sort of fixed gulf, a gulf, which might cross and recuse it will, but which forever shut Jimmie out.
The Russo-Japanese war was going on, and when a great naval battle was imminent, John Elliott had remained to guest at the battle, and could nab win because they were "too much like n--rs". This unpromised conclusion about n--rs will unintentionally listen closely to this table-talk. Aud so in the afternoon, when he carried his bean-shooting cannon and his uniformed cardboard boat, he joined the kicking yard play war with Jimmie, he insisted that his side must be the "Rushins" and that Jimmie's must be the "Rushins" finally agreed to by Jimmie, because after all nationalities were not so important to him at his age.
Jimmie's army consisted of soldiers of different sizes and shapes, and he had recruited an Aunt Kate he had recruited with a pair of scissors from old paper and crippled timeless or headless "Rushins" which the oposing gen-

While Jimmie was setting his motty army in battle array, it seems that the "Rushin" general had the nerve to fire to the enemy and Jap general "puzzle" ready to give order to shoot." In the heated parley which followed from these, oddly conflicting notions of the laws of war the commanders came to do. The turnout and noise of the battle became so great that John Elliott rushed from the homes with reinforcements for the dire situation. The opening general had discarded the conventional weapons of warfare and winding his left fingers in the curls of his antagonist, was killed with the regularity of drummers.

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL CLOSES NEXT. FRIDAY
Directors In Four Centers Praise Work Done For Kiddles
Blending Bible instruction, kindergarten work, manual training, story telling and gymnastics in an effort to start boys and girls on the right road in life, four Daily Education Bible Schools have been operation since July 1st. They are located in Sharp Street Memorial M. E. Church, Perkins Square Baptist Church, Centennial M. E. Church and Trinity Baptist Church. The first three will close on Friday next while that at Trinity Church will remain open until August 5th.
As one enters one of these schools his attention is called to the variety of work done. Stories from the Bible engaging the attention of one group, girls are doing basketry, embroidery and art, boys woodworking, the little pets are being taken care of by a kindergarten teacher and then come the exercises in physical culture.
"These schools ought to do fine work for moral uplift," says Mrs. Alberta Diggs, director at Trinity Church. "They are doing a fine work for the children in giving them the best instruction and keeping them off the streets," says Rev. Julius C. Johnson, director at Sharp Street Memorial Church; and not only are the little ones not allowed, says Marie D. Williams, director at Perkins Square Church, "but the teachers are showing a real interest in the young by volunteering their services."
The instructors at the various schools are: Perkins Square, Mrs. Marie L. Williams, director; Miss Rebecca Murphy, Miss Rosa Fletcher, Mrs. Beulah Fitts and Jeres Jones.
Sharp Street—Rev. Julius C. Johnson, director; Miss Edith Sophie Miss Mand Johnson, Miss Sophie Billings and Miss Mason, Miss Trinity, Miss Alberta, Miss Alberna, Mrs. Edith Siskel, Mrs. Martha Parks and J. Tristopher.

Bright in manhood's bloom;
Gone from the heart that loved

you would play large cont. Ross Dyers Worlds Minstrel Co. can handle the large stand a run of with the World Medicine Co. is a week or more; or could draw favorable attention in the towns of J. H. Rutledge is their program for two or three weeks. In this manner a high class type of artist will be presented with a minimum transportation cost; and with less strain on the performer.
Many affairs of considerable interest to the Negro race and of consequence to the amusement world at large have heretofore been neglected by the trade papers. The NAOHR has appointed that our element of the business shall not suffer such neglect "from now on" as 'onions' the comedian in "Shuffle Along" says. The page will report the activities of the National Association of Black Mincers convention to be held at Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn. July 26, 27, 28.
The 42 Bands and the others of the profession who gather with the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine at St. Louis, Md., during the first week of August with the badge of Medina Temple on his bosom, on the job in the artists interest. When the gates of the big Colorored fair at Lexington, Ky., are thrown open, the page will be waiting with the ticket and an envelope to be concessionaire on the grounds. We want to get in close personal touch with the folks; and we want to make a complete and accurate report of these affairs, so that the world may know of the business and the accomplishments of the group. The page wants every possible assistance in furthering this purpose, but your money. Jackson, editor of the page contribution these reports to Afro-American readers in these columns
CIRCUIT OF BIG HOUSES BEING ORGANIZED TO PLAY COLORED ATTRACTIONS
Gus Hill And Isadore Weingarten
The Promoters
Gus Hill, the veteran theatrical magnate, who for a number of years owned the Smart Set, feature-Ednest Hogan, Billy McClain, H. Dudley and other of the earlier stars, has in association with Isadore Weingarden, partner of Billy King in his theatrical venture, been for sometime negotiating for the houses necessary to complete a chain of big city theatres that will represent colored attractions
In an interview, Mr. Hill stated that certain phases of their plant plays were as yet too incomplete to permit of detailed publicity. The idea, he said is "to secure two new phases of operations located admittedly in Nero districts, or owned by Negro capital and others such as in Boston where a good colored show appeals to the more general public. In these we would play large concerts and a run a week or more, or could change the program for two or three weeks. In this manner a high class type of artist will be presented with a minimum transportation cost; and with less strain on the performer. Presence outlined, between ten and twenty companies will be required to fill the requirements of the circuit. In the hands of men so familiar with the colored performer and at the same time with their great breadth of business experience and consequent response, and little doubt that the project will be of immense advantage to the performers of the race.
While declining to give details
as to personnel of any of the pro-
jected companies, he did say that
one would be a minstrel, one an
already known organization and
two companies in new pieces writ-
en by three well known Negro
producers.
ANOTHER WINNER
FOR TIM BRYMM
"Stop! rest awhile" is the title
of a new fox-trot number by J.
Wolfe. Colbert and J. Tim Brynm,
the former publisher on Broadway
and the latter our Tim of
Red Devil fame.
The number is being featured with great success by Rosco Alib in his big act on the U. B. o. time. Arrangement have already been made for recording this most unique composition. It has the few characters one of the few songs whose words and melody are of about equal value in considering the merit of the number. Both are clever and a real idea is back of them. The number has been arranged for both band and orchestra.
TWO BIG SHOWS IN PROSPECT
Creamer Layton have begun the selection of people for their unique composition for next season. The title of the piece they are staging from their own compositions is "Ebony Knights"
Jesse Ship; the veteran director and Alexander Rogers are busy with plans for another big production that will require 75 artists. Both attractions are being elaborately built and are intended for theaters in houses.
Jerrell Haggin will head the third time Symopators for a six week concert and dance tour, unveiling the direction of the Cutting Room C. 1482 Broadway. Ninth Avenue Boo Gangz will be in Ohio and W. Va.
Happyland Buys Property
Dan Michaels, President of the Mutual Amusement Co. owners of Happyland Park announces, that the premises at 143rd St., and Harlem River that they have theretofore been occupying under lease have been purchased by the company for $90,000.
This announcement most effectively puts aside all speculation as to the possible success of this particular enterprise and should stimulate interest in similar projects in places where like conditions exist. Plans for more substantial buildings are being drawn and the whole lay-out of the place will be altered for next season.
The alterations designed will take cognizance of the drawing power and the feeling 'capacity to serve the different attractions and will serve to more evenly distribute the patronage and prevent congestion in certain spots.
Uniform fronts for concessions, more elaborate entrances to shows and more inviting facilities for rest are features that enter into the new segment. Many of the things we present are not possible owing to their permanent character, because of the more uncertainty that always exists when property is not owned outright. Braun and Sculdt will continue as general concessionaires for the young ones. About of the vogue sions have already indicated their intention to return to the park again.-Jackson.

A double vaudeville bill is being offered the patrons of the New Regent this week. The first half is a melange of dance, song and capability presented by a small group, among whom the most prominent are by Bramlett; in a 'straight' role Edgar Martin a very clever comedian; Harry Duckett who also concludes; Pearl Roye who is a classy 'baby', and Helen Dolly who makes a hit with a blues number.

She is a fair singer and a better buck-dancer: Benny Sparrington, a comedian and dancers seen here for several weeks; Kid Brown; Edgar ThoMason; Arthur Winn who recites and Mrs. Eva Brown the lead singer; and Marsh in "The Little Freid Lady" was the opening screen attraction.

THE FILM OF "THE LOVE OF THE WEEK"
Are women chattel to be branded with the mark of their "masters"? Did she love him the less for the brand that forever marked her as his own? Do the seeds of suspicion often thrive as weeds of remorse? She was branded—not mentally as with the mark of Calm, but physically with the branding iron of the range. An amazing play, a looy, that endured, is "The Branding Iron."
The most powerful and gripping story that has appeared in photoplay form in recent months. It is a story as broad in its sweep as the great outdoors itself; it portrays a clash of the most intense emotions of which human beings are capable. It will hold you breathless as you watch the unfolding theme be powerful and direct as a thunderbolt. You should make it a point to see this picture. You will long remember and only as a gripping, soul stirring story, but as a misperfect piece of photography and I the director's art. Drama of Emotions at white heat.

**Light Turned On Smith**
It was alleged that Lieutenant Smith, who is said to have been bitter against Brown, was among those smitten with the nurse.
He is said to have told Brown at once when he was on top. Brown must be down in the hold, and vice versa.
Lieutenant Smith was one of the most active in prosecuting Brown. Just before the murder that he made so hot for the sailor by Smith that he had to sleep on another ship at night.
Lieutenant Smith, has been since transferred to New York on a white chaplain for alleged brutality to another colored sailor.
The testimony of Detective Peter Bradley was read to show that Brown and he walked side by side when being taken over by the scene of the murder. That was the claim made that he led the way while they were trying to fasten the crime on him. Attorney J. Stewart Davis told the Department that the affidavits all tended to show Brown absolutely innocent. The fervent plea for funfairy for the man. Bishop Boston Allen and Mrs. Laura Wheatley, who have been most active in trying to save the condemned man's life. Attorney Finche seemed to be deeply impressed by the testimony for the accused. "While at first I thought Brown innocent," Attorney Davis told a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN. I now believe gulliness for such evidence was not present in the trial. I cannot blame either Judge Rose or the District Attorney's office for their view of the case, because they were guided by apparently reliable testimony.
