BANK CREDITORS CROWDED COURT ON WEDNESDAY
Taylor and Jenkins With Bookkeeper Grilled For Two Hours Before Bankruptcy Referee
TRUSTEE IS NAMED
Harry O. Wilson Puts Up
$15,000 Bond; Case
Continued Until March 6
The biggest crowd that ever attended bankruptcy proceedings in the United States District Court, in the memory of the officials, appeared itself into Judge Rose's big court room on the third floor of the best office building Wednesday afternoon at the creepiest meeting of Taylor and Jennings, bankers. Referee Willis Myers, white, preided.
Fully hundred persons filled every available seat and choked the sales. Both members of the firm, E B Trayer and James Bookkeepers, were not on the stand in the two rows the meeting lasted, and very early called by Attorney Morris Rose, white, prompted by Harry O Wilson, receiver, and Attorney George McMechan. At the table were also William C. Metcald and Claire L. Smith, counsel for the bankrupts, but they were not called for advice.
After two hours of questioning, hearing was continued until Matty and Harry O. Wilson immediately named Trustee under Vilhelm Hilden.
Liabilities $S1,000
Liabilities of the firm were shown to be $4,500 in 16, with assets amounting to $6,754 in 19. The difference of $4,400 was accounted for overhead charges, the largest of which was $15,000 in salaries to others and employees. Treatment brought out the fact that the main bank on Biddle St. with a maximum of $60,000 in deposit cost $7 a week to run. Amounts branch with $2,000 in deposits cost $20 per week, and the Carolina Street branch, $64 a week to run. Accounts certified that all mortgages the same in was put on the book and neither of the partners paid any. Fifteen plays before the bank closed he testified that $22,000 was taken in and $21,000 taken out. The admitted that he did not have full charge of the books, and had never made any trial balances showing the condition of the firm's business. The Taylor admitted mortgaging the property $255 W. Middle street to Thomas Smith for $2,000, giving him the deal as security. With the trial judgment, he said, the borrowed $2,200 additional on the same property from the Nordair Publishing Association, white, with Mr. Smith's consent, and $1,400 from a Mr. Jenkins also white, with $400 loans for the loan, he had loaned $1,750 from Mr. Smith in the manner given by the Master Company as security, and borrowed $1,000 on Liberty Funds.
Aked why the bank had learned $4,000 to the new defunct Cedar company of America, a New York firm of colored men making dyes, 7,200 to the Wonderland Park Company, $5,300 to Mrs. Lilly Jones, $2,200 to the Dumbar Film Company, which has since failed, loaned money to a number of black activists, Mr. Taylor said that he might the investments good in the time, but has changed as mind since.
Were Not "Easy Marks"?
Both members of the firm denied that they had knowingly made take investments with the depositor's money, had been "easy marks" for stock salesman, Mr. Jenkins admitted purchasing an automobile of his own funds, which he had personally turned over to the receiver, also Mr. Taylor, together with another officer, which he valued at $12,000.
They also admitted the error of lying up the money of their depositors in stocks and long time bans, and asserted that if Brown and Wingate had not failed they would have been able to pull through.
Real Estate Not Sold
Real Estate of Brown and Wingate has not been sold, Henry O. Wilson, receiver for this firm, said today. It must first be advertised for public sale, he declared, and should bring about $7,000.
THE AFRO AMERICAN
WHILE CONGRESS DEBATES THE ANTI-LYNCHING BILL
Mexia, Tex., Feb. 8. "Big Slim"
Simmons of Haston, may become the Clipped Crossover of the "Golden Lane."
"Big Slim" drifted into the Mexia oil fields the early part of the month with his gang of colored men and announced he was ready to start drilling. Big Slim has his own company. They control a ten-arce lease which they obtained from M. B. Kemp, a white man. No white man can own an interest in my company." Simmons deepened.
Simmons, a powerful dark-skinned man, lost a leg in a railroad accident several years ago. He walks with a crutch. Although "Big Slim" will be the first colored man to drill for oil in the "Golden Lane," as the peculiar fact is that most of this liquid-gold land was owned by Negroes when oil was first discovered.
Andy Bakels, grocery store proprietor, owns slave, who owns a half billion West of Mexia has come refused to sell. "I take a $1,000,000 for my land," is his stock reply to all offers. "I'm contented here. There aren't gold to be no tent nor oil well to dirty up my backyard."
MOTHER OF 28 DIES
Mrs. Pauline Peters-Brown, age 81 years, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Halph Treckling, 426 N. Glimmer street, Sunday evening. One of her last requests was to bring one of last week's AFROAMERICAN to her bedside to read to her.

$29,000,000 OIL FIELD WON BY A LOUISIANA GIRL
Court Decision Makes Miss Lillian Turner Richest Colored Woman In America
HEIRESS KNEW POVERTY
Before Oil Was Discovered Would Have Been Glad To Sell Whole Property
Homer, '12). Foh. 9—With $29,000,000 in assets, numerous oil wells and an oil refinery in Clayton Parish, this State, Miss Lillian Turner in one big step has jumped from poverty to the position of one of America's wealthiest women. A few years ago she would have taken a few thousand for her holdings.
Miss Turner comes into the possession of her property which she inherited from her mother. Mrs. Lorna McCoy, by a decree of the State of Louisiana Supreme Court, other claimants of the property were Mrs. Angelina Allen, her husband and the State of Louisiana. The State Court threw out both claims and decided favor Miss Turner.
This was done after the district court of Clayton Parish had turned down the appeal of the State of Louisiana to gain control of the property by declaring Miss Turner to be the illegitimate child of Mrs. Lorna McCoy. All the court cases there were many witnesses on both sides. Colored witnesses were employed on the side of the State in the effort to get Miss Turner's property out of her control.
Know What Poverty is. The land upon which oil was found and the only sale property of Lillian Turner was originally a part of the worn-out Louisiana bottom land, practically worthless for farming purpose and useful only as a place of residence for a few poor people. At no time until finally its value went up by leases and bounds with the coming in of the first big gusher, was the land worth at the outside of more than $5,000. No interest was taken in it nor its owners. The poverty-striken Angelina, Allen, Lorns McHeeney and Lillian Turner graduated from the consequence apparently to themselves their neighbors nor the community. No thought was ever taken of any of the parties to the case. Like many other farms in this district the Turner farm was in the oil belt. Experiments upon it were the same as thousands of other experiments which have been conducted and clothing obtained from them excepting hard work and blasted hope. Once it was established though, that the oil upon the place was kept in mind that the money to be made from it was real money, some of the best legal talent of this section became the ardent solicitors for the favors of the designed three colored women.

Montgomery, Ala.. February 9—Bishops, general officers and laymen of the African Methodist A.M. E. Zion and Colored Methodist Episcopal churches have captured the city. We week the connectional councils, of the denominations are holding their semi-annual sessions here.

New York, Feb. 7.—The yap wagons now make the Black Belt of Harlem a feature of sightseeing tours.

WATER FAMINE
ENDANGERS LIFE
AT BOWIE SCHOOL
Faculty Joins Students In Appeal To Authorities To Avert Epidemic There
SPRING INADEQUATE
Bath Impossible, Four Persons Wash Hands In Same Basin Of Water
Bowie, Md., Feb. 7—Adding their appeal to the protest against the inadequate water supply by laying the墩底 Basin with the State Board of Education last October, the teachers of the Nine Normal School here signed the following document to be forwarded to the Board:
"We the undersigned members of the faculty of the above named institution, beg to place before you the objection and diagnoetic conditions of the physical plant of the Maryland Normal and Industrial School situated on the Pennsylvania Railroad at Station Jerico Park near Bowie, Md.
"Because of the unusual scarcity of water here, we are not only subjected to foul, Himmiling odor but we face the danger of the water used is not only art times one heat but dissolved and filth."
200 Gallons Per Day
In order to ameliorate these conditions, in November a pipe line connecting the pump of a neighbor's well and laid upon the top of the ground at some expense, became useless as soon as freezing to frosty weather came and has now been entirely dispensed with, leaving a group of over ten persons, a head of stock, to say nothing of cooking, bathing and washing to clothes, to be supplied from spring which furnishes one quart of water in every second gallon of gallons a day. The all the water in the bathing pool that is housed by one hired for that purpose (students having refused to hand water after having done so since the opening of school at the expense of their lessons) from a branch stream over one mile from the institution.
Lavatory Near Hog Pen
Then, too because of this search of water, our young ladies are forced to use an outside toilet beated at a distance of several hundred feet, unsecured and in proximity to a big pen at which boys may be at work any time thus increasing the tendency to moral dangers.
Again, and largely because the inadequate water supply, our living gestion furnishes all, although that many of the students are obedient to the teachers and are becoming personally unaware of many of them finding it necessary to go to meals and restations with out washing their faces and, in many cases four or more persons washing their hands in the same basin of water. Students are continually combining of those unfortunate conditions and the population of the school without doubt will be affected if these conditions are not soon remedied.
Situating this such a condition (also in a state school (where sanitation is taught) and we beg of you, or any State representative, to pay this plant a visit and see the situation which is impossible to describe.
Desire you to do what you can to immediately better condition we contain.

Authorities Warned In October
Dr. W. C. McNeal, medical inspector of the school, whose office is in Washington, told a representative of the AFTO-AMELCAN over the telephone, that he had warned the authorities in October that they were "over a sleeping volcano" both as a result of the water famine, and because of the lack of adequate dormitory, whereby so many students are required to sleep in one room.
Insultant conditions due to dirt and filth, are likely to cause an outbreak of tuberculosis, typhus, or syphilis fever. It was said.
Paid $39 Month For Water
The Normal School ordinarily gets its water from a $2,000 arsenic well 237 feet deep on the school grounds. This clogged up in December. Pipes were then laid from the school to Dr. McNeal's home.
spring, according to Prof. J. W. Huffington, white, in charge of State schools, but froze in the cold weather, leaving the next nearest supply of water a quarter of a mile from the school grounds. Dr. McNeal was paid $20 a month for this water, Mr. Huffington said.
Mr. Huffington also declared that the State Board had voted to drill the well deeper, but the workman was unable to proceed due to the cold weather. He added that the medical adviser had not informed him that it would be best for the workman to drill rather than run the risk of slackness by remaining in unanticipated conditions.

LARGER OUARTERS FOR ADVENTISTS
Announcement that the Seventh Day Adventist congregation which Elder M. C. Stracham is pastor, has purchased the Harlem Avenue Church, $30, while means that the church and school now located at Druid Hill avenue and Robert street will move larger quarters within the next three months.
```markdown
```
To a representative of the APRO, Elder M. C. Stracham gave the following statement, "of my church I take this means of thanking our many friends for the kindly and sympathetic interest which they have shown in the proposal to buy the Harlem Avenue Christian Church. We believe the controversy is ended and the matter settled for all time to come, and may the God of heaven get the benefit. We do hope the unkind feelings and unpleasant words will be forgiven and soon forgotten by all; and in their place will be magnified the spirit of true Christianity, without which none of us can see God's face in peace. Our church endeavor to continue the opposition but are worthy and desirable addition to the Harlem avenue community; and may God help us to do it.
The new location gives our church an opportunity to do a better and larger Christian work in Baltimore. Our present quarters is entirely too limited for our work. We believe the providence of God has over-rubed in our favor, and to Him be all the glory.

FINDLE—In sad but loving remembrance of my dear son, Richard W. Pindle, who departed this life five years ago, February 11th, 1817.
Gone, but not forgotten.
His voice so soft and gentle:
Gone to dwell with God above,
Who does all things well.
MOODY—In sad but loving remembrance of our dear mother, Jeanne Moody, who departed this life ten years ago. February 6th, 1912, and our dear brother, Joe Moody, who departed this life six years ago.
This day recalls the memories.
Of the loved ones laid to rest.
And the ones who still remember you.
Are we who loved you best.
—By their devoted children, sister and brother, Beroina Deman, and Harry Moody.
JOHNSON—In sad but loving remembrance of my dear mother, Millie Johnson, who departed this life one year ago, February 11th, 1921.
In the grave-yard softly sleeping.
Where the flowers gently wave.
Lies the one I love so dearly.
Home is sad. O God, how dreary,
Lonesome, lonesome, every spot:
Listening for the voice of mother,
Silent, for I bear it not.
LEE—in sad but loving remembrance of my dear father, John H. Lee, who departed this life February 8th, 1929.
From this land of grief and trouble
To a land of peace and rest,
God has taken our dear father,
Where he found eternal rest.
In our hearts your memory lingers.
Tenderly, kind and true;
There is not a day, dear father,
That we don't think of you.
WHEELER—In sad but loving remembrance of my dear husband, Harry A. Wheeler, who died one year ago today, February 9, 1921. Just a thought of sweet remembrance.
Just a memory fond and true.
Just the love of sweet devotion.
Of the ones who think of you.
No one knows the silent heartache.
Only those who have lost can tell of the brief, thats borne in silence.
Of the one we love so well.
Not dead! It s a glorious hope.
And lessens our sorrow and pain.
Then help us. O Lord, to be faithful.
That we may meet our loved one again.
—By his loving wife, Julia A. Wheeler, and Children.
SIMS—In sad but loving remembrance of our dear mother, Lotte Sins, née Henson, who departed this life one year ago. Loved in life, in death remembered, by her loving daughter, Margaret Alexander.

And our hearts are aching yet;
But we will meet our dear father
Where parting will be no more.
—By his two daughters and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Rawlings and Miss Annie E. Harris.
Oh, brother, how we miss you.
No heart or tongue can tell.
But thou hast gone to God above,
Who deeth all things well.
—By his Brother and Sisters.

CITY HAD PLACE IN DOUGLASS' LIFE
Great Marylander Got Inspiration Here Which Made Him A World Figure
Figure
Dowen around Centennial Church is where Frederick Donglass got the inspiration which made him a world figure in the cause of freedom.
Being brought from his Eastern Share home, he was placed with a family named Aud that lived on Street, near Eastern Avenue.
Donglass ran away to the North, because an editor and anti-slavery orator. He often returned to Baltimore after the Civil War, usually stopping at the home of the late Samuel S. C. St. Street. There he "held court" talking with his host of friends and admirers.
Donglass Institute, located for many years on Lexington Street opposite the Postoffice, was named after him. It was a place for pubs and Mr. Donglass often snook there.
While Dougstress was making friends for freedom in the North many froe-born colored Mary lander were surreptitiously reading Horse Creek's New York Tribune and antiquity-science cause. It was regarded as contraband, and for a colored man to be caught with one meant a whipping. Mr. Kahlp was one of those who often went to the newsstand then located at Rikermann's Street and Guilford Avenue, and gave signal nickel was planked down and the Tribune carried.

LINCOLN
of the best vaudeville bills of several weeks is at the Lincoln this week as the stage offering. It is composed of The Gertie Miller Trio: Smallwood and Bradford a aeromann; Grice and Coleman and Trevor Dugmore. Both of these acts went over big with the margin of applause, however seemingly in favor of the Gertie Miller Trio, composed of Madam Gertie Miller, Billy Johnson and Sam Cross. Not only can they sing, but they are excellent dancers as well, and Madam Miller who can dress much weight is brought down by the success of some dance capers that none of the audience believed possible of or of her stoutness.

Buying Protestant Favor
Six men dressed in the garb of the Ku Klux Klan entered the lobby of the white Y. M. C. A. at Denver, Colorado and made a gift of $100 to the Association's campaign for funds.
Another similar group of Kluxans brought funds to a white Methodist Episcopal Church in Oklahoma with funds for the church rally.
Looks like the Klan is trying to overcome Catholic hostility by buying the favor of Protestants.

If these branches cannot agree on unification this time after twenty years of discussion, the A. M. E. and A. M. E. Zion connections should join their forces and leave union with the remaining denomination for the future.
The Supreme Wiggler
Efforts of Charles Bradford of Texas to get a square deal from the courts of his state will be watched with interest.
Mr. Bradford was convicted of assault with intent to murder and sentenced to seven years in prison.
The Court of Appeals sustained the verdict of the lower tribunal, but granted a writ of error and permitted a further appeal to the United States Supreme Court.
Counsel for Mr. Bradford made the appeal on the ground that no colored men have been permitted to serve on grand juries in Texas for many years in violation of the first section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution.
The lynch law of the South, the routen school systems, the disfranchisement laws and the Jim crow cars are all violations both of the letter and the spirit of the Fourteenth Amendment. The trouble is that we have not yet developed lawyers smart enough to bring the type of case before the Supreme Court that it cannot wiggle out of.
A Million For Education
The annual report of the General Education Board for 1920-1921 contains this significant statement:
"In the long run, the people must support the education of colored as of the white children."
The Education Board was created by John D. Rockefeller, oil king, who in the past twenty years has given $126,788,094, the principal and interest of which are to be used for educational purposes.
Last year the Board gave over a million dollars to colored schools in the United States, about equally divided between the elementary schools and colleges.
The summary of the Board's appropriations last year for colored schools is as follows:
Colleges and schools $646,000;
county training schools, $128,000;
prilic teachers, $12,000; expenses
of special students at summer
schools, $10,000; John F. Slater
Fund, $9,000; medical schools,
$170,000; rural schools, $131,500;
rural school agents, $77,959.11;
summer schools, $28,200. Total
$1,212,659.11.
Year before last the Board gave
colored schools over two million
dollars. This is the best evidence
that Mr. Routkefeller and his Board
not only PREACH Negro education
to the delinquent states, but
PAY for it.
Roland Hayes, America's great colored tenor, now enroute to West Africa to study native music has the opportunity to win fame even greater than that of Coleridge-Taylor, is the opinion of a writer in a recent issue of the Lagos, W. African Weekly Record.
"Whenever I get a request from a composer to write him a lyric for a "Fox Trot" or a "One Step" or a "Jazz," I can invariably find some new combinations of rythms, by taking half a dozen purely Negroid Folk Songs as a basis and quickening or changing the rythms. The fundamentals are there wherever we look in West Africa, but contact with white civilization seems to be needed to bring those fundamentals who due prominence.
"Who will deny the beauty of the improvised canoe songs that are encountered whenever we travel in that primitive way? But what composer, no matter how complete a master he may be of his technique, will be able to capture that elusive atmosphere and pin it inside the staves of the score?
"If Mr. Hayes does this for West Africa, his fame will be even greater than that of Coleridge-Taylor. I have already shown that the secret of Mr. Taylor's power was a combination of ancestral 'Negro memory with a sound traditional 'English music training. We shall see what we shall see when Mr. Hayes is among us."
Yessir. Saturday'
No one blames the four men of Miss Ethel Waters' Jazz Orchestra, who quit rather than continue on a tour of the Southern states with her.
Bert Williams, the actor, usually finds Maryland far enough South for him and Charles Gilpin in the "Emperor Jones" quit his Southern tour in Virginia after being threatened by alleged Ku Klux Klanmen.
Latest news articles received from Miami, Florida, this week state that Howard's Whispering Orchestra of Gold was flogged and driven out of town because they were well treated by guests in the Haleyon Hotel, white, and walked around the city streets in the daytime "dressed up."
Anyone who wants to wear a necktie, collar and clean shirt, except on Sunday, finds the South more appreciative of jumper and overalls.
Get Your Babies Now
"If you want a baby for adoption, get one now, for soon you won't be able to" advises Director C.C. Carstens of the Child Welfare League of America. He declares that "modern woman" and her independent spirit are responsible for the shortage of babies in the better class homes and prohibition has decreased the number of dependent babies by improving conditions in the lower class homes. No one ever suspected that prohibition would bring a baby shortage along with its otherills.
Douglass—Allen
With each recurring year the birthdays of Frederick Douglass and Richard Allen are celebrated by colored people all over the country. Douglass was the statesman and moulder of sentiment for his race, and Allen founder of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, were born in February 14, one in 1817 and the other in 1760.
Douglass, the Maryland slave boy learned to read in Baltimore, and later escaped to the North, where he became one of the foremost advocates in the antislavery cause. To listen to the compelling oratory of this former slave was to make friends for the cause of freedom. When the shackles fell from the limbs of 4,000,000 slaves honor after honor came to Douglass and he was the Grand Old Man and sage of Anabostia.
His last speech delivered in Baltimore, at the commencement of the Colored High School, breathed an uncompromising spirit for the utmost fairplay in colored people. Soon afterward this champion of his race and pioneer advocate of woman suffrage died in February 1895, at a time when Jim Crowism and Disfranchisement had not run riot with the rights of Negroes. The trimmer and apologizer followed in holding the linelight. Richard Allen organized the A.M. E. Church as a protest against Jim Crow Christianity. Today it
is a militant organization with 700,000 members, race bishops, many highly trained ministers and many scholars and colleges. It has been foremost in championing the cause of the race. In these times when we have a Republican administration at Washington that would treat the different from other class-
Negro different from white, class of American citizens and which would urge liberty for oppressed peoples abroad and at the same time keep an iron heel on the neck of Halti, and when many colored men and women are not concerned about being accorded the fullest American privileges a reaffirmation of the principles for which, Douglass and Allen stood is needed. The more one studies the careers of these two illustrious men, the more the race should strive to emulate them.

SANTO DOMINGO'S FIGHTING ARCHBISHOP
(From the Nation)
Archbishop Novel, head of the Catholic Church in Santo Domingo gave the following written statement to the editor of the Nation on his recent visit to the West Indies:—
My desire is to see the Dominican Republic once more in full enjoyment of its liberty, independence, and sovereignty.
This is also the unanimous desire of the Dominican people.
In my opinion, the American Occupation was in no way based on any principles of right and justice, and the intervention was unjustified.
I do not consider that any benefits have been received from the intervention; on the contrary, I consider that the expectations of the Dominican people in regard to the American Occupation have been completely disappointed.
During the American Occupation the Dominican people have seen and learned many things before unknown to them, and which have been in many ways hurtful to their ancient traditions and customs.
I do not think that the American Occupation has increased the friendly feeling between the Dominican people and the people of the United States; quite the contrary.
When I was in Rome last year I had occasion to meet archbishops and bishops from all parts of South and Central America, and the opinion was unanimous that the Occupation was unjustified; and, moreover, they freely expressed their opinion that their countries should get ready, as nobody knew whose turn would come next.
Of Haiti I know personally very little, but from reports received, things appear to be very bad also.
The only message I have for the liberty and justice-loving people of the United States is that it seems impossible that the same people who so generously poured out and shed the blood of the best of its manhood in defense of liberty should at the same time deprive a small liberty-loving people of that same liberty and independence which has been their birthright and privilege for all mankind. Q. What course should in your judgment be followed by the Dominican people if the response of the present American Government falls short of fulfilling their aspirations? A. The only course I know of is to trust in God to whom we trust our destinies and wait patiently.
Los Angeles, Cal. Feb. 6—An interesting sideline on the production at the Walker Theater on January 23. of "Africanus," a play by a talented Los Angeles colored woman, Mrs. Eloise Bibb Thompson, is a letter received by her from Charles S. Gilpin, star of "The Emperor Jones." asking for the privilege of reading the play. Gilpin writes from Detroit, where he is on tour with the CV will play which made this remarkable colored actor famous in night. Vehicles for colored players are very difficult to find, and Gilpin has been for sometime searching in every direction for one suited to him. "Africanus" deals with the young Negro both in Africa and America.
THE HALL
Harlem Avenue Christian Church, white, corner of Harlem and Fremont avenues, was purchased by the Seventh Day Adventist Congregation, Elder Stratham, pastor, who expected to enter the new building within the next three months. Nearly residents kicked against selling the property to coliseum buildings, but when the congregation offered the building to them they were unable to raise the purchase money.
SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
For February 12, 1922
"ELISHA AND THE SHUNAMITE WOMAN"
Text: 2 Kings 4:8-37
(17-22-27-39-35)
Golden Text: Verily, verily, I
saw unto you, the hour cometh,
and now is, when the dend shall
hear the voice of the Son of God:
and then that hear shall live:
dolphin 5:1
The relation between Elijah and Elisha was of a particularly close kind, but the difference between them is much more striking than the resemblance. Elijah is the prophet of the wilderness, wandering, rugged and austere; Elisha is the prophet of civilized life, of the city and the court, with the dress, manners and appearance of ordinary grave citizens. Elisha is the messenger of mercy and restoration. Elijah miserly with exceptions, are works of hard and destruction; Elisha's miracles, with but one notable exception, are works of benefice and healing. Elijah is the prophet as fire an abnormal agent working for exceptional ends; Elisha is the "holy man of God which passeth by us continually" (2 Kings 4-9) mixing with the common life of the people, and so it is not strange that he is found partaking of the hospitality of the wealthy as well as helping to provide an answer of multiplying the few barley leaves to feed a hundred men.
In his travels around the country he becomes a visitor at the home of the Shumamites, a wealthy and religious family. They gladly welcomed him to their home, and the wife suggested the building of a temple (the prophet) so that the prophet might be comfortably cared for, and where he might have the opportunity for mediation, whenever he came that way. Elisha sought out some means of requiring the woman for her thoughtfulness and kindness in caring for him, and his son served as his companion, and his something he might not for her. He had previously intimated to her, and perhaps her husband, that he was in position to do something for them at court or with the officer in command in that particular district where they lived; but they informed him that they had no interest in the duel, followed. He then were living.
Gehazi informs Elisha that there are no children in the family. After prayer, Elijah informs the woman that after a due season she would bear a son. Nothing could have pleased her more, for in all oriental countries, a woman that bears her husband a son is well favored by all. The child in due time came and grew. One day the child went out into the harvest field where his father was busy gathering in the harvest, and was stricken down with the heat. A suspicious maid. The father thought it a small matter, and giving more attention to his harvest than to the child sends the boy to his mother by a servant. The mother held the child on her knees until noon when it died. Her first thought was of the prophet, and so she takes the child up into the prophet's room and lays it upon his bed. Closing the door she sends to her husband for a beast and a servant telling him she was going to see the prophet. He expresses surprise at the request, stating that it was me of the feast of new moon nor are of the feast according

Her first thought was of the prophet, and so she takes the child up into the prophet's room and tays it upon his bed. Closing the door she sends to her husband to servant and she takes the servant up his she was going to see the prophet. He expresses surprise at the request, that it was not the season of new moon nor any of the feast prayers if we would have them days. He did however according answered at all.
HERE ARE SENATORS DECIDING FATE OF DYER BILL
LET THEM KNOW HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT IT
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, following passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in the house of Representatives by a vote of 230 to 119, today made public the names of Senators on the Judiciary Committee, to which the bill was referred on January 27.
If the Judiciary Committee reports the Dyer Bill, its enactment by the Senate is almost certain. The Senators on that committee are: Knute Nelson, Minnesota; William P. Dillingham, Vermont; Prank B. Brandegee, Connecticut; William E. Borah, Idaho; Albert B. Cummins, Iowa; LeBaron B. Colt, Rhode Island; Thomas Sterling, South Dakota; George W. Norris, Nebraska; Richard P. Ernest, Kentucky; Samuel M. Shortridge, California; Charles A. Cutherson, Texas; Lee S. Overman, North Carolina; James A. Reed, Missouri; Henry F. Ashurst, Arizona; John K. Shields, Tennessee; Thomas J. Walsh, Montana.
Despite all predictions to the contrary, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People steadily maintained the Dyer Bill would be passed by the House. It has been passed. The Association just as firmly believes that it will be passed by the United States Senate if every man and woman who wants it enacted lets the members of the Senate Judiciary Committee know of the tremendous public sentiment for it.

to her wish, sending the ass and the servant.
The prophet sees then coming while considerable distance off and send Gehazi to enquire of her reason for coming to him. She has no message for Gehazi, except to say "all is well." Her message is for the ears of Elisha and no one else.
She are times when there is only one we wish to pour out our woes. When hard trials assuil us, when difficulties crowd our pathway, when we are burdened down to the ground with some great sorrow, there is only one car in which we wish to pour on our hearts, the car of the Master. Friends are all right, the pastor is all right, relations are all right, but not at this time and in this hour. No one but Jesus will be able to speak with our hearts breaking us with all the earnestness of our souls to find relief from our burdened hearts.
The Shumante tells her troubles to Elisha, who is also troubled in heart, for he says, the Lord had told him nothing of this. He sends Gehazi with his staff to lay it on the façade of the house, and assists that Elisha comes himself. Gehazi meets the pair with the tilings that what he has done has had no material results. Gehazi might have been a right good kind of fellow, but Elisha's mantle had not fallen on him. Elisha was the only one at this time that the Lord and the woman were in the child's room upon the roof he finds the child and stretched himself upon it with prayer in his heart. Several times he walked the room and several times he stretched himself upon the child, until breath came into it again, when he calls the child's mother and asks to her her son for her love.
Oh, the joy that came into that mother's heart when she received that her again in her arms, more joy, perhaps than when he was first put into her arms at his birth. And how her heart must have gone out in gratitude to the God of Elisha for the return of her first born.
There are some things which cannot be done by proxy. The Shunamite woman did not send a servant to sofa and to Elisha her troubles. She was the best messenger that could be sent. Gelhar and his staff were not much good. Elisha himself was what was needed. And right here is where the person's touch comes in. For some things the messenger is all right, but, where the personal touch is needed the messenger will not do.
And what of the mother? What would the world do without the mothers? The mother is a wonderful institution. Doom that the terrible child will be less than anything or anybody less than the mother who comes to smooth. Its fevered brow, and one can take a mother's place.

"DARK WATER"
"DARK WATER"
B W. E. B. B. Du Bois, Published by Houghton, Bruce and Howe, New York City, Price $2.90—postage ten cents.
Dr. Boussie buits his literary career, as I remember, back in the nineteen with an article in the Atlantic Monthly. "Between me and the other world," he wrote, "there is always an unasked question; unasked by some through feelings of delicacy; by others through the difficulty of sightly framing it. They approach me in a half hesitant sort of way, eye me curiously or compassionately, and then, instead of saying directly, How does it feel to be a problem? they say, I know an excellent colored man in my town; or I fought at Mechanicsville; or Do not these Southern outrage make me sick. If you are the same man interested, or reduce the hooling to a summer, as the occasion may require. To the real question, how does it feel to be a problem, I answer seldom a word."
"Don't you think Du Bois is bitter?" the white reader asks, with the implication that to be bitter is to be in the wrong. But the bitterness of "Dark Water" is a great part of its power. It stirs the self-compacent citizen out of his comfortable optimism and whether he likes it or not makes him face realities. No man of the race that started the Atlanta massacre can read the Lilyan at Atlanta, the cry of the blacks to God "How long shall the mounting flood of innocent blood rear in Thine ears and pound in our hearts for courage?" and again "Sorry to the poor and to the needy, pale bloodless, heartless thing" and be unmoved. Such a man complains of the bitterness because he lates the fact that he is moved.
```markdown
```
I speak of Dr. Du Bois' books in connection with white people because it is this reaction with which I am most familiar, but I believe that his writing is marked by interest in his race, especially the youth of that race. He has been a champion of the doctrine that the race must not accept unchallenged an insult, a doctrine that has been fruit at Chicago and that with continuing increasingly to bear fruit.
Speaking of the colored woman, Dr. Du Bois, after telling of the many things which he can forgive, even slavery, declared, "I shall never forgive, neither in this world nor the world to come," the white South's wanton and continued and persistent insulting of the black womanhood which it sought and seeks to prostitute to its lust. I cannot forget that it is such Southern gentlemen *** who insists on withholding from my mother and wife and daughter those signs and appellations of courtesy and respect which elsewhere they withheld only from courtesans.
---
One loves the magnificent arraignment but is quite sure that the Southerners' treatment of the colored woman comes largely from his oldtime association with her as one of the servant's close companions, servants who whatever their race, though they may become millionaire's wives, are always Jane or Mary when they meet their former masters and mistresses and not until the colored woman of the South largely leave domestic service, with they find a white woman, his wife, be called by their last names. One does not need to call in the courtesan who, by the way is often treated with more respect than the domestic servant. But all the same the paragraph is magnificent.
There are books that people MAY read and there are books that people MUST read, and "Dark Water" is a book that MUST be read.
A POEM A WEEK
Poems by colored authors for your scrap-book. If your favorite bit of poetry has not been printed here, send it to the editor and tell him why you like it.
By James Weldon Johnson
In his colurce "Fifty Years and other Poems"
"The Awakening"
I dreamed that I was a rose
That greed beside a lonely way.
Close by a path none ever chose.
And there I lingered day by day.
Beneath the sunshine and the
showr
I grew and waited there apart.
Gathering perfume hour by hour.
And storing it within my heart.
Yet, never knew.
Just why I waited there and grew
I dreamed that you were a bee.
That one day gaily flew along.
You came across the hedge to me.
And sang a soft, love-burdened
song.
You brushed my petals with a
kiss.
I woke to gladness with a stunt.
And yielded up to you in bliss
The treasured fragrance of my
heart:
And then I knew
That I had waited there for you.

Africans Must Go Into Woods And Burn Raw Materials Into Buggies To the Editor:
I am not sure if I have written you since my arrival in Liberia; if not I regret this so much. Still I have not been at all idle in respect to our economic condition as a people and a race. The economic pressure on the black man everywhere in the world, even to this infamous African Republic, far from encouraging and it seems some shouts to burst the walls on possible.
The hand of time, however, is pointing out one remedy. (If we would heed the lesson.) that we must start on our own directed initiative. Today the right man with the right knowledge and vision is what Africa is crying for, men who can do what Booker Washington calls and the raw materials (in nooggies). Bishop Brooks is doing well with his work, outlook hopeful.

DON'T STOP MY PAPER
The following jungle, from an unknown source, expresses, we believe, the sentiments of some of our readers.
You know the times are stringent and dollars hard to get;
But tug a little harder
Is what I mean to do?
And scrape the dimes together, enough for me and you.
To do without my paper,
I can't afford to drop it!
I find it does not pay
How long do you hope
Don't stop my paper, brother
Don't strike my name off yet;
To give me his or loan.
He don't just say, but means it.
"Why don't you have your own?"
You can't tell how we miss it,
If it by any fate
Should happen not to reach us
Or come a little late;
Then all is in a hubbub,
And things go all awry;
Ah, brother, if you're married
You know the reason why.
Then kindly keep it coming.
If pay be somewhat slow.
For cash is not so plenty.
And wants not few you know.
But I must have my paper.
Cost what it may to me?
I pay them up.
Do do without my ten.
So, don't you stop it, brother.
Unless you want my frown.
For here's the year's subscript:
Be sure you put it on.
And send my paper promptly.

Former Baltimore Now In Virginia Asks Pertinent Questions About Smith Case
Mr. Editor:—
Will a word of commendation on the very fine editorial appearing in the issue of January 20, concerning the coming Smith execution, and the ultra careful enforcement of the law of capital punishment for rape and attempted rape, when the culprit happened to be a colored man, he accepted by you?
At the risk of being mistaken to be defending this horrible crime I beg leave to ask a few questions.
Why is the insanity plea entertained as a mitigating virgin once at a rape trial?
Why is that any number of so-called abolitionists be, gutted quickly in the case of some rich murderer to prove him "temporally" insane, even though all evidence leads to show he claimed the crime for weeks ahead.
If the human mind may be overpowered by the passions (or hate) that control of it is completely lost, and murder is committed, why is it that the deceased have the highest power, is never given the slightest consideration as a cause of innocence in the trial of a human being who has suddenly become a paying beast, and then a cripping helpless craven?
Never have I been able to feel that a rapist was in full possession of his mental faculties at the time, or just previous to the commission of outrage, also believe who makes laws, who is so consolentious about their enforcement to the foolish, when the offender is a co-operant man, realizes this very same thing, and for that reason rarely if ever, executes the death penalty of one of his own race for this crime.
How long of God, will "the sound of flesh" be required at all times of life, and surely at all times of no time, excepted of another in "white"
Old Baltimorean Wants Afro So Him Indefinitely

P. A. Scott, of Lincoln, Md., told how Lincoln, Md., County School Board has refused to raised $1,000 for a new $12,000 building. How many arries available for colored teachers in included out well-trained people from other States who would accept positions here was told by Miss Mary F. Wiggington, of Prince Georges County, and George W. Overton of Anne Arundel County.
The next meeting of the Association is to be called at Antapolis Friday. Representatives from every county in the State will be invited to attend. Plans of the Association include turning the light of publicity on the conditions of the public schools, and an education one of our goals is to make learning more to interest parents and friends in the better school movement.

The Giant Killer had to make nine pounds, the articles of aggregement stipulating that Lavigne would be the winner if he staved the limit.
During the first eight rounds Lavigne was cut to ribs. One of the cars was nearly torn off and both men were smattered with wounds.

Old Dogs Know Tricks
Young Must Learn
Spotter was growing old. His brown eyes was beginning to fail. His joints were getting stiff. He spent most of his time lying in the sun or crouled up in front of a wall. "I'll go to get a new hunting dog," said Mr. Allen. "Spotter is not for active work." So Major was brought to the old place. Major was a spirited being dog, very sure of himself and trained to be cooky. Spotter told the newspaper very colly. The dog had a digged master's hole and was on his distance and Major, after a few attempts at "shipping him on the back," dog-fashion, learned to send Spotter with respect. The first time Major's master him on a hunting trip was held on Spotter. The old fellow Mr. Allen to the man's house and the man's chosen when he told the day to go back.
Mice a white Miss Alice, Mr. Alice's daughter, came out carrying her little rifle, "Come along, Sputter," she said kindly. I'm going over to the woods to try to shooting," Sputter prickles ears when he saw the gun and he took along. Ed he was disappointed. All Miss Alice did to put a tin can on a sump and shoot at it. Sputter rounded around restlessly. Then he sniffed. He sniffed again. Snoopily. Miss Alice was watchful him and she followed curiously. Then she gasped and grabbed her gun. Sputter had hung on a flock of partridges. "Mice today," called Mr. Alice as he came dragging home that evening. "Major is active even though, but not a, good hunting yet." "Come here and see what old Sputter and I did," laughed Miss Alice.
and Snotter stuck his head in the air in a manner which said
the West Indian marvel at the end of the twelfth round, but the verdict wasn't popular.
ANY veteran ring sharps still insist that George Lavigne, the Saginaw Kid, was the greatest weight champion. He was 5 ft. 23 in tall and a natural born fighter. When Jack McAuliffe retired, undefeated in 1893, Lavigne assumed the title and held it for five years. A year later he boxed draws with Young Griffo and Solly Smith, whipped Jerry Marshall and Johnny Griffin in summary fashion at Coney Island and fatally knocked out Andy Bowen at New Orleans. Lavigne won a twenty-round defense over Jack Everhardt, a former customer. In 1855, also stopping Jimmy Harder and boxing another draw of twenty rounds with the clever Griffo player to first triumph over Walcott. The Saginaw Kid visited London 1886 and knocked on Dick Burge, the British champion, in seventeen rounds.
Then he returned to New York City and stopped Everhardt in the twenty-fourth round, after having his nose broken and both eyes closed. In 1897 and 1898 Lavigne whipped Owen Zeigler Kid McPortland, Cherry McKeever, Eddie Connolly, Wabatt and Toni Tracey, also boxing twenty rounds to a draw with Frank Erne at Coney Island. Erne got a return match in 1899 and deprived Lavigne of the world championship on a just decision after twenty rounds of drilling in which the Kid proved that he had seen his best days.

Palm Beach, Fla., Feb. 9.
Tuesday's game was one of the bitterest battles ever witnessed here, the Poincaré scores 3 runs in the first inning, and the Breakers scored 2 in the third. Dixy Johnson pitched a wonderful game and held the Breakers at his Hill Cookell weakened, and was placed by Flournoy in the fifth for the Breakers.
The greatest advantage of the game was a wonderful catch in center field by Kemp, who cut off a terrific drive off Pierce's hat that would have been a home run. No little discussion has been made concerning the misfortune of Mike Brown in the seventh inning, not scoring from third base. That particular play was known as the "squeeze" play and when properly executed is one of the best plays, Johnson, who was at bat, failed to hit the signal for a bunt. This play was originally by Frank Chance, who guided the Chicago Cubs several years ago. He practically won a pennant on just such plays. We hope for better luck next time.

TRI MUS GUILTY OF
POOR SPORTSMANSHIP
The opening game in the P. A. L. Basketball League was played Wednesday evening, February 4th, at the Sharp Street Community "Gym" between the Teachers' Training School and the Tri Mus. The occasional brilliant work of the Tri Mus, combined with their rough work at times, the game resembled a football game of twenty years ago. Dorset, Brooks H. Brown and Thomas, of the Tri Mus were the worst offenders. These men have in the past built up a reputation for fast, clean players and were rated as stars, but if they continue such success, they will rapidly fade from swordsmith. To win is a prideworthy, and the natural ambition of everyone, "Anything to win" is mighty poor sportsmanship.

"What do you mean by 'just fooling.'" I questioned.
"Well, you see some of the boys talk big about things they do, and laugh at me 'cause I never saw a hold-up, or broke in any place, or did other things that are not nice for boys to do. They called me a 'sissy' and a 'Sunday-school pet,' so one day I made up a lot of stuff and told them, and it was this that the man must have overheard."

That Jack Dempsey will battle Harry Wills for the heavy-weight championship next summer is a sure thing provided permission can be obtained to hold the battle in or near New York. The question of a site for the battleground is the only obstacle. If that matter is settled satisfactorily, an offer will be forthcoming that will satisfy even Dempsey's demands. That $200,000 offer made by, William A. Brady was in the nature of a straw to find out which way the wind of public sentiment blows. The result will be made when a battle ground is found.
Armstrong and Dunbar High Schools in Washington have begun a three-game series for the basketball championship in the District for four teams, and playing for the winners and Armenians has won the city championship twelve times.

EARI JOHNSON WINS IN BOSTON GAMES
Boston, Mass. Feb. 6—With that quick low bounding stride of his, losing no effort, and uncorking a sprint at the finish that brought the crowd to its feet. Earl Johnson won the three-mile race in the annual indoor games of the Boston Athletic Association in the fast time of 14 minutes. 51 1-5 seconds.
Earl had no easy time, but at that he has run the distance two seconds faster than he did Saturday, where he won the closest contenders, and Earl showed them that he could jump in front of the field whenever he got ready.
Earl is a champion at the three-mile distance, but he is going a little out of his class in trying to win the two-mile indoor championship of America this Saturday night at Buffalo.
On Saturday, the 18th, the "Y"

FRANK HUNTER SUSPENDED
Golce On With Green Last Week
With Injured Wrist Draws
Penalty
Frank Hunter, the colored welterweight, who was outpointed by Bert Green, of Washington, D.C. Monday night, he has won, has been sued by the local boxing commission for attempting to fight with an injured wrist. As told in this paper Last week, Hunter's showing was a disappointment to his followers.
Hunter's excuse; for his noir work, was that he had injured his wrist in training. The commission also issued orders against any more bouts being held in the Fourth Regiment Armory after February 15, as a result of the inadequate number of exits in case of fire or some other catastrophe.
The high school cage tossers will get an opportunity tonight (Friday) to demonstrate their basket skill once more, when they face face M. & D. quinjet of Washington, D. C. at the Drudh Hill "Y."
STATE ATHLETES MUST GET BUSY
County School Boys Mus Make Better Records To Compete With Boys Of City
INDOOR MEET PLANNED
Col. Record Asked To Provide 5th Regiment Armory for One Day in April
School boy athletes in the counties must get a hustle on if they expect to be able to compete in the near future with the boys of the city, according to the records of the last year, who were staged in the counties last year. For example, the host State broad jump did only 12 feet, while in the annual municipal meet a city boy jumped 19 feet, 83 inches. The host record of the shot put in the State was a distance of 29 feet, 6 inches, while a city youth hurled the same weight 38 feet 4 inches. Other records for the sprints and the distance runs and the relays show that the rural boys are as yet behind their city.
The reason for this is that the choice boys have had the advantage of athletic training longer, both under their teachers and under the P. A. L. One way for the county officials to get ahead would be for them to position Burlick and other teachers in a course of athletic training for teachers in the Bowie Normal School next summer. The teachers would then learn how to conduct instruction in athletic events, and other games, and the result of their training would soon show among their pupils. With steady advancement in the next few years, the rural schools would be in a position to ask the P. A. L. to conduct a wide athletic meet that would prove credible in every way.
Indoor Meet Planned
An indoor meet open to athletes of the whole State is being planned for sometime in April, providing Colonel Reckord will give the Fifth Regiment Armory for this purpose. The meet for white boys will be staged there April first. This week a request for the armory for a meet to be directed by the P. A. L. was made to school from the Afro Office and a reply is awaited. If this meet can be staged under the direction of Mr. Freiicke, it will be the first indoor meet for the State.
Black Sox Club

Their places will be taken by new men who are yet to be signed up.
The Black Sox will not join any of the leagues in formation but will stick to independent that, according to Charles Cromwell, well-known athlete and ampire comrade, will be the radical change in the club is that the players will receive a salary instead of receiving a percentage of the gate receipts.

The changes that existed last season in that Cincinnati and Columbus have been dropped, and Joe Green's Chicago Giants will play as a member of the Association but not as a league club.

Collegians Put Up Stirling Game But Find "Greeks" Too Fast And Lose 28 To 19
GIRLS STAGE HOT CONTEST
Games Late In Starting On Account Of Military Drill
What turned out to be two of the most interesting basketball games witnessed by court fans this season, took place at Richmond Market Armory last Friday night when the Athenian Blue and Gray Machine grappled with the Morgan Collegiate, in a threepoint contest, with a threepoint preliminary stage between the Y. W. C. A. girls and the Morgan College girls.
Athensians Show Dazzling Speed
The Collegians worked like Trojans the first period but on more than one occasion, were stopped in their tracks by the brilliant passing and dazzling speed of the "Gregians." The form that the Blue and Gray outfit exhibited was the most careful of followers, and as the period ended the faces of the Morgan rosters were an expression of chiron and outraged dignity.
The Collegians' greatest weakness was in their marksmanship, had they possessed equal skill in this department with their opponents, there would have been another story to tell.
Several Players Star
They were seven players whose way of attack the staller variety and brought roaring cheers from the spectators, chief among whom were "Se-rappy" Brown, whose sensational leaps in the vicinity of the basket seemed almost super-human, and who contributed 3 field and 3 foul goals; Dale, Morgan guard, whose aggressiveness was a tower of strength to his team, as he seemed to be all over the floor at the sideline; 3 foul goals one of his field goals being a long shot from center; Pritchard, Morgan guard, who shot 4 field goals; McPayne, who also did some excellent dribbling and shot 3 field and 1 foul goal; Richard, who shot 3 field goals.
Y. W. C. A. And Morgan Girls In
Sciencing. Predliminary
The preliminary, staged between the Morgan College girls and the Y. W. C. A. quintet was a sizzling set-to and far more interesting than the musculine spectators had expected.
These girls exhibited none of that timidity generally associated with the gender sex, wherever there is a possibility of their getting bum or breast of beauty—and there was no little beauty in that same that could have been marred too, follows: you that weren't there. Time and again, they collided in mix-ups that must have taken their toll of bruises, but nary a fortune fender feared, faltered, faltered or fainted.
And any how, the pretty ring of fashions that circled the gallery applauded. We are confident that the next day found many a husky threat, and many a glove to need of the warning needle.
"Y" Girls Out-Class College Gifts
The most brilliant stars of this
"Y" girls who shot 4 field goals,

THE VAMP & THE VIRGIN
FRIDAY, FEB. 10, 1922
TENTH CHAPTER
THE HELIOTROPE DANCE
The two people shot out of their seats and whirled around. For a silent moment they faced each other, a pale trio, the Virgin leaning limp against the wall, racked with rage. Assistant professor in college freshman standing with arms half-spread flat half-closed, and a look of foolish uncertainty on his handsome face; and Beatrix herself whose shame and pain were being held by her being caught. Before a more sophisticated man than the Virgin she might have hung her had; but the Virgin, especially in his present condition, was helpless. He had not even had the wilt to go away without speaking, and now he stood gagging at her like a child who receives its first blow from its mother. And like many other women when caught in an unfavorable or even compromising position. Beatrix resisted, and to turn the tables on her accuser.
She straightened in majestic indignation, her face grew hard, her eyes burned; she was the picture of wounded righteousness. She axed her eyes of the Virgin, born in community, biting off each word. "Spy!" she said bitingly. "You have followed me for three hours. You—calling yourself a gentleman—you are not even a man—writing
"Beatrix!" cried the despairing Virgin. "You know—" "I know you!" she said, her eyes flaming at him. "Because I happened to prefer—" "Beatrix, Beatrix!"
"I am Miss Marler—to you."
"I am Miss Murley—to you."
"Of course, of course," said her partner, the virgin, with a scornful glance at the Virgin. The freshman was feeling very important as the preferred man.
The virgin was so daunted that he could not reply, and Beatrix, having seized the advantage, used it to the utmost, bringing rapture to the freshman, who felt that she was scoring the Virgin for him. "I will turn to him," he explained to him. "I'll explain the case of this—this young man, for I wish you to understand everything. The first time I met him he asked permission to escort me, and I said that he was a gentleman. Imagine my astonishment when he took advantage of my trust to attempt certain familiarities."
The freshman, indignant, "Then why did you let him dance with you tonight?"
"Oh," said Beatrix readily, "his mother and mine turned out to be friends, so she asked me to be nice to him tonight. I obeyed her, much against my wish. You see the result; I've been followed and I have been asked to the floor. I preferred your company to this."
"An outrage!" said the freshman, too delighted to make his words sound natural. "Supose you were down to the floor." She took his arm, and was about to march with unseeing eyes past the wit-shattered Virgin when she paused a little. Some of her friends begged her beurthed. Joe Grimes stepped into the balcony.
"Oh," said Beatrix. "It's Mr. Grimes." said Joe, standing in the balcony entrance with his arms folded. He looked her up and down sardonically, and then laid one arm across the drooping Virgin's shoulders.
"Call me a spy, too, young lady," he said coolly. "I was a dressropper." said the freshman.
"Yes, freshman. I'm not insulted; I leave you to the mercies of La Belle Dame Sans Mercrel," he said. "I'll give you the body." "No," said Joe. "I only mean that you'll get yours in time, like so many other good men." "No, you mean, sir?" said the freshman. "You'll find out soon enough. Frankly, I'm not worried about you. But the Virgin is my girl. I am not worried about you. Jim, so I've heard everything, and with all due respect to the lady I must say that I was not at all surprised at anything she said. I was not surprised that winner had its effect upon the freshman, who turned to Beatrix. Her proud air had left her; she stood silent. her eyes burning at Joe's like red cocoa." "Take me away from here; Robert," she said unsteadily. The freshman, whom she had just begun to spring to her side,
"Before you go, Penner," said Joe. "I will tell you this: regardless of what anybody says, the Virgin's the finest gentleman in Boston that I can Cambridge." "You would imply that the lady—" "The lady left her fan in the seat," interrupted Joe.
The freshman went to look for the fan, and Joe had tittle to whisper something terrible to Beatrice "Toxic Marley," he began, with cold, hard eyes, "you will die long before your time; but you will see hell before you die." She wheeled upon him, but the freshman returned with the fan, and she said nothing.
"All right, Virgin, old boy," said Joe cheerly, "let's go." Beatrix and the freshman mode the new frontman from the balcony. The Virgin put his arm across his face. "Brace up, man!" said Joe. "Now; the dime to show your money." The Virgin stiffened, and went down the balcony stairs with Joe, trying to look natural. He had a dance with anybody, take a look, said Joe. "Don't show anything in your face, whatever you do." I haven't any dance," said the balcony man. "I only want to get out of here." Good," said Joe. "I have no dance either. We'll go home to you, and you think you can stand any company."
The Virgin nodded, and they went to the chakroom. When they emerged in their overcars Will and Nick and Phil hurried up to them. They hacked the hurry, fellows" they hacked. "There are two dances more." "The Virgin likes to go to bed early, you know," laughed Joe. "He's been yawning for the last half-hour and I've been trying to keep him awake."
Thus Joe accounted for the Virgin's long face.
"But aren't you going to take anyone home, Jo:?"
"No, they all turned me down. Come to think of it, why 'aren't you follows dancing attendance on the belle of the evening?' And then, out of frustration, Foster, has chased them all way," said Tom Storecham, joining the group in time to hear Joe's question. "And you have some as Lucifer, come from big people, and has plenty of money." "Surely," said Joe, innocently, "the superior Miss Marley is above mercenary, considerations, but not touching that," said Tom.
"There was a rustle of skirts behind them. It was a girl, so Tom, said this is awful, going away without saying goodbye." "The Virgin is sleepy," said Joe, "she's not a night-hawk like the Virgin." "But all the girls will want to know why you went away without saying anything. Don't you like us or fight?" "Of course," said the Virgin, managing a pitiful smile.
"Really, Joe, you must bring Mr. Nirgin to see me."
"Or he can come himself," said Joe. "That would be better."
"Yes," laughed Laura. "I know only too well that there's nothing dangerous about me."
"But behind her laughing eyes I had her nerve of her was on the alert. She knew that something or other had happened, or they would not be leaving.
"Now I do expect you to call her. She had her in the left a nice time, haven't you?"
Something in this straightforward girl, with the broad face and neck, broke down the girl's grip, and she siped her hand like a vise, and all the misery in him came to his face.
"Yes, Miss Worth," he forced himself to say, "a very good time to look at the ball. Laura Worth stood look after them, rubbing her numb hand thoughtfully.

WHEN SHOULD A BABY WALK?
Article Number 6 of a Series of Talks for Mothers and Fathers
At birth a baby's head is larger in proportion to his body than is an adult's. The abdomen is big. The arms and legs are short and the legs are slightly bowed.
the feets are slightly. Soon after birth, a baby develops sense of contact and temperature, that is, he knows when he is being held and he can appreciate heat or cold. He learns to see light and to hear during the first three
or to touch the hand. The first month the hands move almostly about. During the second month, he learns to put his hand to his mouth and tries to
lift his head.
During the third and fourth months, a baby will make an effort to grasp what is held before him and will try to sit up. He should not be allowed to do so unless he is supported. About this time, he begins to recognize others and develops a will of his own, which is expressed in crying when he is displeased. He will coo when he is happy.
About the sixth month a baby can sit alone for a few minutes. He will grasp and hold whatever comes within reach of his busy fingers. He now begins to be sociable and will try to talk, sometimes making vowel sounds.
From the seventh month to the ninth month, he will creep and will make efforts to stand. He likes to initiate movements and to have attention shown him.
sympathetic and alert to the twelfth month, he learns to stand, and from the twelfth to the sixteenth month learns to walk. He develops a sense of desire to please and this leads to obedience. Sometimes at the twelfth month he can say a few words. A baby has no moral sense or knowledge of what is right or wrong. He simply follows his instincts. An older person must keep him from harm and show him gently how to do the right things until himself.

As improper feeding is one of the chief causes of a child's failing to develop properly, too close attention cannot be paid to the right feeding of a young baby.

GAS IN THE STOMACH IS DANGEROUS
Recommendations Daily Use of Magnesia To Overcome Trouble, Caused by Fermenting Food And Acid Indigestion
Gas and wind in the stomach accompanied by that叫失恋 feeling the stomach is full of the presence of excessive, hydrochloric acid in the stomach, creating
Acid stomachs are dangerous because too much acid jetfates the body's lining of the stomach, often leading to gastritis accompanied by serious stomach ulcers. Food-ferments and sources, creating the distressing gas which distends the stomach and hampers the normal functions of the vital internal organs often affecting the heart.
It is the worst of folly to neglect such a serious condition or to treat with ordinary digestive aids which have no neutralizing effect on the stomach acids. Instead get from any druggist a few ounces of Bisural Magnesia and take a teaspoon in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This will drive the gas, wind and blent right out of the body, sweeten the stomach, neutralize the excess acid and prevent its formation and here is no soundness or pain. Bisural Magnesia (in powder or tablet form—never liquid or milk) is harmless to the stomach, inexpensive to take and the best form of magnesium for stomach purposes. It is used by thousands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigestion.

Keep The Cellar Clean
Keep The Cellar Clean
A great deal of the sickness families suffer could be easily traced to the cellar. The cellar, the kitchen is heated and the cellar is not. Following natural haws, the colder air of the cellar will rush to take the place of the warmer, therefore lighter, air of the kitchen. This would be well enough if the cellar air was pure, but often it is not partly decayed vegetables and other accumulated food, etc. A day should be taken to throw out and carry away all dirt, rotten woods, decaying vegetables and other accumulated food. Brush down the cobwebs and with a bucket of fine give the walls and ceiling a good coat of whitewash. Brush is not at hand, take an old broom that has been partly worn out. It will sweeten up the air in the cellar, the parlor and the bedrooms, and it may save the family from a number of fevers, diphtheria and doctors.

NEW $500,000 DOUGLASS THEATRE OPENING AN EVENT
Lafayette Players To Produce "Within The Law"
Beginning Next Monday
The opening of the Douglass Theatre, Pennsylvania avenue, 1300 block, marks an epoch in the history of Baltimore. Colored Baltimoreans will have a playhouse where there will be no Jim-couing or segregating, or in other words, not to go out the box office at the Douglass Theatre and get tickets for any seat in the house for which they are able to pay.
The promoters of this gigantic enterprise involving nearly a half million dollars, deserve great credit in putting over this wonderful monument to Negro genius advancement, and miss my guess if the volunteer people of Baltimore do not show by their support and hearty cooperation that their efforts are appreciated.
The Doughlass Theatre from a standpoint of architecture, modern conveniences and comfort, compares favorably with any theatre in the City of Baltimore. Then again, the management recognizes the fact that good clean dramatic offerings are appreciated in preference to the cheap and often vulgar vaudeville. The nationally known Lafayette players opening the Doughlass the week of February 17th are by these two artists, Andrew Bishop, J. Lawrence Criner and Cleo Desmond. These artists have won an enviable reputation for their organization, at the Dunbar Theatre, Philadelphia, the Lafayette Theatre, New York, and the Avenue Theatre, Chicago; in fact in all of the cities in which they have played.
Mr. Bishop is one of America's foremost leading men, an actor who has every qualification necessary for a successful leading man. He should become - Baltimore's hating man - Miss Desmond Huntington, a meticulous friend to fame. The unusually fine quality of her work was observed; and soon lifted her to stardom. Her sympathetic understanding, fine interpretation and brilliant reading of her part has won for her a reward in the form of thousands of admirers who place her with the foremost addresses in "With The Law" Miss Desmond will be seen at her best at Molly Turner, the character that madge, Jane Cowl famous.
J. Lawrence Criner is a man that you will have to like; however you will like him for the easy going, free hearted way he seems to do the meanest act is a real villain: he is an artist of the highest type who has won his way from the ranks by sheer merit.
E. C. Brown, the banker and financier of Philadelphia, who is president of the Douglass Amusement Corporation, told an After-reporter: "We have given to the people of Baltimore the house and we are going to give them high class productions, in return we feel that we are justified in asking for their support."

Four Men Resign Rather Than Make Trip With Ethel Waters
Chicago, Ill., Feb. 2.—Although four members of her jazz band quit the company at the close of the Black Swan Troubadours ensemble, four members of Grand Theatre because announcement that was made by the management that the company would immediately start on an extended tour in the South, Ethel Waters, the world's great singer of the blues, is on her way Southward. She has made up her mind to appear before colored audiences in Dixie, and says it will take more than members of her company before she changes her mind about visiting the Southern States.
When the four musicians declared they were through, Miss Waters asked if there were others in the company who objected to traveling in the South. There was no response. The singer ended the incident by stating that while railroad accommodations and other phases of traveling were none too visible in the South, she felt it her duty to make sacrifices in order that members of her race might hear her sing a style of music which is a product of the Southland.
The places of the four dissatisfied musicians were at once filled by talented young men from Pittsburgh, St. Louis and Chicago.

Sissie and Blake wrote a number of songs for the show. Several of them appeared to make a big hit with the audience. The same numbers make the same big hit at every performance. 'Love Will Find the Way,' "Bandanna Days" and 'Gypsy Blues' are the songs that stand out and get the big hands. Other performers make good use of these songs, but they will not get the opportunity. Judging from the songs go out and be led to think Sissie and Blake should gather in a wad of money in royalties. Maybe they will and maybe they won't.

"By Right Of Birth" And "For His Mother's Sake" Show That Race Photo- Plays Have "Arrived" AUDIENCES ENTHUSIASTIC
Themes Logical, Acting Intelligent And Photography High-Classed
By William E. Ready
That the day of the colored philosophy dealing with the everyday life of the Negro, has about arrived, has been very impressively emphasized by the two "colored" pictures which the Regrent Theatre management has shown at that house during the last week, name: Clarence Erbooks, and Anita Thompson, by tight, on. Out, for His Mother's sake, featuring Jack Johnson, ex-heavy-weight champion boxer of the world.
The first-mentioned production, as shown at the Regent the last three days of last week, and the latter, the first three days of this week, "itty Right of Birth" is said to be based on an actual incident, and tells how an Indian and his wife, who is colored, decided to leave Oklahoma, where they have been living, and go further West. During their journey across the plains, their team runs away, killing the Indian and apparently his wife. Accompanying them is a group of two or three years of age, who, unharmed by the wreck and finding her parents unable to speak to her, wonders off and is found by a white man, who takes her to his home, where she is reared by him and his wife in the belief that she is an Indian girl.
Through his wife, who is a society gambler of the parter variety and an unscripted broker the fact comes to light that the Oklahoma land on which she is residing is the property of the foster-daughter and that this daughter has the "fatal drop" that makes her a Negro. Jaimita, the name that has been given to the girl, hears the discussion of the fatal discovery between her foster-parents and leaves their home, a move which is particularly painful to the "father," who begs her not to go.
In the meantime, Jaimita has met a young colored lawyer, who, believing her an Indian girl, has only regarded her in the light of an acquaintance; when he finds out

that she is colored and that she has admiration ripens into a stronger attachment, which is reciprocated. How they outwit the scheming broker and obtain the lease that she had been tricked into signing, makes a story that held its soldiers in tense interest, and often evoked outbursts of apprehension. Even the story of the actor acted with intelligence and showed a keen sense of the requirements of cinema acting. As already stated, the leading roles are played by Clarice Brooks and Anita Thompson, and their work compared very favorably with the work of the foremost screen actors and actresses that appear in the more prominent division of movies.
Every member of the cast seemed especially selected for the role they essayed, and particularly pretty winnome and appealing was Mrs. Thompson as the heroine. Au outfit, she was dressed in a beaded costume honest-to-goodness. Indian woman who, as the grandmother of the half Indian-half Negro heiress added a pleasing touch of local color as well as humor.

Babe Townsend, a talented actor and experienced director is staging the shows and playing leads. Gladys Jordon, Elsie Fisher, Dorothy Sweeting, Evelyn Riley and Ella Thomas are the ladies of the company. They can really sing and all are artists with big show experience.
Carrie Huff, Lena Wilson, Lillian Gillman and E. C. Caldwell are the principals, with "Turkey Bosom" Pugh as the featured comedian.
Mr. Muse states that he has fifteen 'Tab' productions that are adaptable to the use of this guest. He hopes to hold the organization intact. If so, some wide-awake manager is in position to obtain for long runs the company that wins the talent and looks that should prove just the draw that would save a lot of transportation costs.

Head Of Black Star Line Steamer Made Three Addresses In Baltimore Last Week
SCORES DUBOIS
Newspapers And Ministers
Also Savagely Condemned by N. Y. Promoter
Referring to himself as "the Negro Master Mind" Marquis Carvey head of the Black Star Line Steamship Company, of New York, made three addresses at Trinity Baptist Church, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of last week. Mr. Carvey is also head of the Universal Negro Improvement Association which he asserted is the most hard hit organization in the world. Great Britain United States, France and Italy he said, "have spent millions of dollars trying to underline this movement."
According to Mr. Garvey the Department of Justice has had official stenographers follow him all over the country for the past four years taking his speeches verbatim, typewriting them and sending them to Washington. The Government, he said, has a whole room full of nothing but speeches, but visit him, he declared, Great Britain sent two battleships to keep order.
Slams Ministers
Mr. Garvey also paid his respects to ministers and newspapers who have not fallen in with the Garvey movement. Dr. W. E. B. Dulles' statement in a recent issue of the Crisis, that the Black Star Line is "a debit to the Negro race," lead Mr. Garvey to refer to the "black blood" of his froth "May the good Lord have mercy on him," he added.
Mr. Garvey is now under indictment on the charge of using United States mail to defraud and so no reference was made to the Black Star Line at these meetings.
"I am a new Negro," Mr. Garvey said at the beginning of his address, "in all of his actions, in all of his flow for a chance and an eye for an eye. I am not going to be guided by white people unless I lose my mind. My parents were dragged out of Africa and sold as slaves without having a chance to make a will. There are some people who say they have no interest in Africa, but that continent is mine and Africans begin to go white men over there, God have mercy on their souls."
Lady Henrietta Vinton-Davis urged local members of the Association to get behind the project to finish paying for the Liberty Hall recently purchased at Pennsylvania Avenue, near Mosher St.
Bernard Webb Going Back In Schools
Bernard Webb, former teacher in Weasley street school, and one of the best athletic directors in the city, was among those who took the teachers' examinations last week. Several of the principals, it is expected, will make a bid for Mr. Webb's services because of his fine work as a teacher and athletic director. After teaching for some nine years, Mr. Webb resigned to take up war work; afterwards he was in business. During the whole time he kept in touch with his athletic work through the P. A. L. Despite his long experience, good record, and that it would be necessary for him to take the city teachers' examination to be in line for appointment again.

SNOWBALLS FLY
Little 'Un' Paste Big 'Un' Because He Is In First Grade
"Let's paste him," suggested a small boy to a group from the Frederick Douglass School a few days ago.
Immediately snowballs began flinging thick and fast around a boy apparently about 16 years of age.
The large boy protested, turned hither and thither, but the snowballs kept on coming.
"What do you think of a big boy like that only being in the first grade in school?" said one boy as the bombardment continued.

Sunday Fire Completely Destroys Interior of Dwelling At 1105 Argyle Ave.
PASTOR'S HOME IN DANGER
Opens Door For Firemen Then Leaves To Baptize 35 Converts
After a three hour battle Sunday afternoon, firemen succeeded in extinguishing a blaze which completely destroyed the interior of the dwelling at 1105 Argyle avenue and caused several hundred dollars damage to three adjacent dwellings. H. A. Jackson, who lives at 1103 Argyle avenue, was lying in bed during a celebration of his afternoon when smoke began burning into his room from next door at 1105. Attired only in his "undies," he ran through the streets to Pennsylvania avenue and Hoffman street where he telephoned to the Fire Department which arrived soon after. Dense clouds of smoke were pouring from the dwelling at 1105 Argyle avenue, occupied by Mrs. Florence O'Neil, a nurse at Mary O'Neil, Mrs. O'Neil's alarms attracted attention and other alarms were sent in.
By the time the firemen arrived, the fire had burned through the hallway from the first floor to the second and third floors and was eating up the roof and the cornice of the house. Bird's nests, consisting of straw, raw cotton and rags provided fuel which easily caught and extended the fire to neighboring houses. Firemen were forced to dig holes in the roof to access the fire in order to extinguish the blaze. Sick Woman Couldn't Be Moved Apprehension was felt for Mrs. Doeess (Gross, aged 60, an invalid, so ill with rheumatism in the from

Refused Bail On Account Of Girl's Illness. Attorney Secures Writ of Habeas Corpus
Albert Smith, 1900 Division street, was held without bail by Justice Chapman, of the Northwestern Police Station, last Tuesday on the charge of assaulting and cutting with intent to kill Miss Mateeeb Hughes, 1615 Division street, last September.
Smith had been released on $1,000 bail by Magistrate Chapman on December 29 last for a hearing on the 21st of January, the postponement being due to Miss Hughes' illness. When she was not able to appear last week on account of her illness Smith was held for court. It is said that the girl is parachuting from the side, and fearing her death, no bail was accepted. He was later released on a writ of Habeas Corpus.
