ST. PAUL WANTS REV. VERGIL BACK ST. PAUL WANTS REV. VERGIL BACK Anxious to have their pastor Rev. S. A. Virgil, back, a committee elected by the membership of St. Paul M. E. Church was sent to Atlantic City this week to protest against his transfer to Mt. Zion Church. Rev. Levi Miller was appointed to St. Paul. The Bishop told the committee that Rev. Virgil had been at St. Paul eight years and that was long enough. He added that had the committee come to him sooner, the change might probably not have been made. There was nothing, he said that could be done now. Members of the committee were Dylan Isaac Young, Charles Brown and George W. Brown. It is unlikely that the church will appeal to Bishop McDowell of this diocese in the matter for the reason that all bishops are equal and he would not interfere. Rev. Miller could not be found Thursday, as he had not moved his family to the city, Rev. S. A. Virgil, left the city Thursday.

Great Step Forward Says Johnson James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for Advancement of Colored People, halfthe nomination as a great step forward for his race. He said the boy probably would have rought sledding, as the mime is a pretty aristocratic face. "He must be extremely tactful," said Mr. Johnson, "and he must maintain his self-respect. He must not be a boot-lucker, but he must use a lot of self-restraint." Mr. Johnson cited the case of the late Col. Charles Young of the great W. W. Point of Oxford. Young found that objects objected to taking food from a plate after it had been passed to a Negro first, he said "he handed it to them first and then served himself after them.

RIDICULES IDEA OF SARAH RECTOR HAPPY INITIATING THE DEAD OVER COURT DECISION Indianapolis, Ind., March 30.—The Kappa Alpha Psi Journal, official organ of the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, published today, ridiculed the idea of a college fraternity initiating dead people. A leading editorial in the Journal refers to the Alpha Phil Alpha in Washington recently which initiated Frederick Douglass as a posthumous. The initiation of Frederick Douglass is without precedence," says the Journal. "Suppose this given act should be used as precedent, just where is it liable to lead? Could our learned and honorable features afford to turn our attention to grave-yards in such wise? If they did, just where should they stop? It might not require much stretching of the imagination to suppose the quick spreadring broadcast of such news items as, The Hon. Nimrod, Mighty Hunter before the Lord, Mighty Builder, Worthy Seion of the illustrious Ham, has been initiated a month of Qhandh Chapter of theank! Psi Fraternity." The roll of the deceased would have every chance of out-numbering the roll of the quick; and at once the old scholastic debate on the number of angels it were possible to perch securely on the point of a needle would arise; the pristine bitterness of the sprites occupied seats designed for occupied creatures that are human. The thing is ridiculous!" SERIOUS CHARGES MADE AGAINST EASTON JUDGE SERIOUS CHARGES MADE AGAINST EASTON JUDGE Easton, Md., March 30—Serious charges are to be made against police magistrate in a local court in the case of William McGee according to residents here.

SARAH RECTOR HAPPY OVER COURT DECISION Judge's Decision Last Week Gives Her Complete Control of Her $1,000,000 Estate Kansas City, Kansas. March 20.—Miss Sarah Rector, America's $1,000,000 oil heir, is rebuilding at her home this week following the decision of Judge J. E. Guiin, deciding that she was competent to take care of her own money. The judge not only refused the plea of a white and a colored man to manage her estates, but complimented Miss Sarah highly on her intelligence and thrift. Miss Rector's wealth is derived from her estate, which includes fields, one of the richest fields in Oklahoma. She received this allowance under the Creek Indian Act, which gave Negroes held as slaves by Indians the same rights as their masters. The allotment yields an annual income of $33,000 and $40,000. A large part of this revenue Miss Rector has invested in Liberty bonds and farm land. She has about $33,000 invested in the bonds and her 270 acres of land are valued at nearly $100,000. Miss Rector, who is a pure blooded Negro, lives with her parchment in a fashionable district of the city, but is now being over by the wealthier colored folk. Apparently she supplies both the funds and the financial genius for the family, and she manages the household well and economically. She owns an automobile, not a car, and she manages the matter of dress is about on a par with the average girl of her age. She is a high school graduate, but she did not win any honors at school.

DUVALL TELLS WHY SALES OF HERBS OR LIFE ARE SO LARGE "The enormous sales of Herbs Of Life," said Mr. Wm. Duval, special representative of the Herbs Of Life Indian Medicine Co., "mean just one thing and that is—merit. Herbs Of Life is well advertised it is true, but such a large and rapidly growing demand could not be brought about by advertising alone. It's what the neighbors say that counts. One bottle is sold in a neighborhood through advertising, but ten more are sold in that community after the first bottle produces results, and that's right where Herbs Of Life scores. People are always willing to talk about their ailments, but they are more than willing to tell others of the medicine that helps them. It's something they couldn't keep to themselves if they tried, for the impulse to sympathize with neighbors and want to help them is one of the strongest, as well as one of the biggest things in human nature. "Herbs of Life is producing these results, and that is why nothing on earth can keep it out of the homes of the people. It is not only the most talked of medicine, but, in my opinion, it is the best and most efficient. And, although prominent officials leaders throughout the American Continent have endorsed Herbs Of Life, its greatest prestige is simply based on the unified indorsement of the masses of the people. "Not a day nor a week passes that does not bring hundreds of statements from the people concerning the good this medicine is doing and reciting the circumstances of remarkable cases that would convince the people of the importance. These are alone sufficient for Herbs Of Life, but the figures are more, in the enormous orders speak eloquently and convincingly of the great good this medicine is going." U. S.

He warned against the white men who are constantly annoying black women, and against whom the white man is constrained by the virtue of the violence. The cooperation of whites and blacks, he declared, can serve to eliminate these breeders of insurrection.

HOMER TUTT IN UP AND DOWN WHITNEY & TUTT AND THEIR SMARTER SET CO. PRODUCERS OF CLEAN SAWS DOUGLASS Patrons of the Doughlass Theatre will find another Big Time waudeville bill on view at that house this week, headlined by the appearance of Kid Norfolk, well-known lightweight boxer, who gives a two-round boxing exhibition with his sparring partner and demonstrations of how a boxer prepares for a battle. The vaudeville bill proper is composed of Mayo and Glenn, man and woman duo, who are clever entertainers in songs, dance and chatter; Jenkins and Jackson, male duo who are real comedians. The duo may sing in the business (they would be an even greater success if they sang more and talked less): Three Bohemians (white), a man and two women, in a high-class musical act, the latter laying piano, accordions and the man a bass guitar. The man sing in the theater area from Carmen in a pleasing harpion; Holman Brothers (white) acrobats who offered sensational feats on the casting bars; Peet and Brown, male duo, who created merriment in their talking skit "The Black Politicians" in a musical comedy Tabloid Company, in a side-splitting sketch entitled "Two African Princes" in which a riot of fun is created. During the progress of the sketch, Percy Colston scored in a duet with Lala Whidy, entitled, "Your Eyes Have Told Me So." Lovejoy joins the fun-making, white comedy abandons the female immensalist week for a detective role in male attire. Kid Norfolk's stunts are well-received. Panama Joe Gans, who was to have appeared with Norfolk, could not afford the engagement to the foot that he has twoights scheduled to take place shortly, and in his stead Mexican Joe Lawson, a heavyweight boxer of skill, was secured. A plaque in the heart is located on his right side instead of the left. REGENT Manager Kennard Williams, of the Regent, has secured another theop vaudeville bill as the stage attraction at that house this week. It is comprised of a young boy, who has been a feature of the Monte Carlo Girls burlesque company (white) for the past six years, teamed with his wife, Mildred Martion; Nit and Tuck, and Boise Legge' Fandamia Girls company in a tabloid musical company. Judgings in blackface demonstrated to Regent patrons by his fine sense of comedy values and eccentric dancing why he has been the leading laugh-producer of the white burlesque company featured with for the past six years, while his pretty wife sang and danced engagingly. Nit and Tuck sang a little and danced "some more." Nit is one of the best buck and wing dancers ever seen here, with its timeless fairy tale colors and puts over her song in good style. Another act that made a big hit was the trained dogs of W. O. Franklin, one of the first dog acts seen here handled by a colored man. The three canines showed almost human intelligence in marching forward and reversing at the word of command. The Bandanna Girls was the us- mal type of musical comedy melange of song, dance and dialogue, and while nothing new was offered, the offering proved pleasantly diverting. During its progress one of the biggest hits was a duet by Hattie Snow and Eunice Washburn, providing You, Sweet Louise. Another number that scored was "Flirtation," sang by John Jenkins. Other members of the company are: Sam Graham and Floyd Young, who, with Legge, handle the comedy. Alma Peoples, Candy Holton, and John Walker. From Idaho" was the name of the sketch. The principal screen offering was "Extra! Extra!" featuring Johnny Walker and Edna Murphy. AGRONNE A high-class waudeville bill of five acts is the stage attraction at the Argonne this week. They are: Parker and Mack, Leon Caxton, contortionist; Etta Gross and little Gecheie in a sister act; Mack and Mack, and "Monkey" Johnson, in a single. Parker and Mack again are winning their usual plaudits of appreciation for their splendid talents as entertainers. Claxton, who is one of the fines tecontionists before the public, scores with the man who plays Mack, man and woman, win favor with their singing, dancing, and patter. Etta Gross, who is one of the very few women comedians on the stage, puts over the comedy song numbers and buck dancing in her usual fine style, while she pans her comedy surprises by the size of voice with which she puts over blues numbers. "Monkey" Johnson created amusement by some real comical chatter. Pictures complete the bill. This is the last week that the Argonne will be operated under its present management, as the Dumbar Amusement Corporation, of which Mr. Josiah Diggs, owner of the Dumbar Theatre, is president. LINCOLN The best vaudeville bill ever offered at the Lincoln Theatre is on view at that house this week. It is composed of Coleman and Johnson, making their first appearance at a head house. Their act is high-class. The former is a skillful performer on the violin while his partner sings pretty and nets with the accompaniment. They are nicely positioned. Brown and Brown, man and woman, bring something new as whirlwind dancers. They are the best and in fact the first real classy dancers of this type ever seen here. They do not speak their language, they "brought down the house," "Chinese" Walker and Grace Johnson present their familiar patter which seems to have lost none of its entertaining qualifies. Charles Anderson, the great yodder, "held up the show" as usual. The boy dancer Lillie May Dumas and Grace Arnette, close the bill with a good line of patter and some line buck dancing. Thomas Dumas and Grace Arnette. The former also made a big hit with his explanation of how baseball originated in the Blues. The injection is a smattering of spit that adds nothing to the act, and should be eliminated, as they are capable of getting laughs without this sort of stuff.

I do not think they would be very smart. Mr. Norman Bishop, 1128 Druid Hill avenue—I have nothing to say on that question. It is quite deep. ADVENTISTS TO ENTER CHURCH ON SATURDAY With a sense of gratitude to God for His favoring and kind providences, Saturday morning, the Seventh Day Adventists of Baltimore city plan to worship in their new building recently purchased at the corner of Dolphin street and Fremont avenue. Their service will attract to our city hundreds of colored Adventists from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, District of Columbia, and Virginia. Perhaps the largest delegation coming from the city of Washington. A very elaborate program has been prepared by the local pastor, Mary A. McCormick and his congregation, covering a run of about eight days. Distinguished preachers of the Congregation will speak. Beginning with the Saturday morning service, Elder J. K. Humphrey, of New York City, delivers an address. The afternoon service will be conducted by Elder Fred H. Seeney, of Washington, who by the end of himself the founder of the Baltimore City Fourth Clock Sunday afternoon a company of ladies and gentlemen, not Adventists, but well wishers and personal friends of the pastor, will render a musical and literary entertainment. Sunday night, Elder E. E. Andross, president of the North American Division of Seventh Day Adventists, a California man, will speak, reviewing the recent signs throughout the world. The pastors of the Baptist, Methodist and other churches of our city, will speak during the week. Their choir and congregation will come with them. The seating capacity of the new Adventist church is six, so there hundred, but the partitions of the Sabbath School room are the air, four hundred more may be accommodated. The structure has a modern steam heating plant. It contains a large baptising pool with rooms for dressing the candidates. It has a grand pipe organ. Aside from the main auditorium, the Sabbath school room and the pastor's study, there are four large rooms for day school. There is also, a well-equipped kitchen. The church of brown stone, on a slate roof, and the whole presents a very pleasing sight at the intersection of Harden avenue and Holbin street. A CARD OF THANKS Miss Susie R. Bell, who has been confined by illness at the residence of her friend, Mrs. Ida Bailey, 1421 Jefferson street, for six months, was tendered a surprise Monday evening, March 27, 1522.

Ebb, head teacher of Branch School 109, Mount Olive Lane, for eighteen years has been made head teacher in charge of the Waverly School in Mr. Gross' place. Miss Cooper, Supervisor Miss M. Edith Cooper, practice teacher in the city schools, has been appointed by the Board to a primary sponsorship of the primary grades in all the colored schools. It is expected that she will have charge of the grades from one to three, but this has not been arranged definitely by Superintendent West. SPECIAL EXERCISES CLOSE NIGHT SCHOOLS The public school schools closed this week, special exercises and exhibitions of handwork attracting the attention of visitors. A fine exhibition of the work of painters in feature of the exhibition will be an attractive specimen of dressmaking the pupils of the colored evening high school preceded the closing exercises, which took place at Sharp Street Memorial M.

Hill's Statement Absolutely False Detroit, Mich., March 27. — "The statement in the AFRO-AMERICAN of March 24th, and attributed to Rev. J. Action Hill, that when I attempted to enter our Sunday School Union building while on a recent visit to Nashville, Tenn., that Mr. Ira T. Bryant slammed the building in my face, is absolutely false. "To me it is unthinkable that the Rev. Hill should have made such a statement. I rather think it is the pigment of somebody's imagination as it is so wholly foreign to me," SMITH, Bishop M. E.

History Day By Day Friday, March 31—The Hon. John Nerang Langston, was nominated town clerk for the election and the honor of being the first colored man ever elected in an office by popular vote, 1855. Saturday, April 1—Lord Cresswell (first secretary, barrister to Liberia and minister to the leading states) borne a slave, died 1828. Sunday, April 2—The Secretary of state, a total of 71,756 Negroes in the service of the Governed, 1861. Monday, April 2—Colored world war prepares for big welcome in parade streets of Boston, Governor and Mayor review marches, 1919. Tuesday, April 1—Saint Tremplet, vows Saint of the church, Frédéric, bishop of Boston in siege in 1526; died April 189. Wednesday, April 5—Booker T. Washington, vows slave, Established Normal and Industrial Institute, born 1856. Thursday, April 6—A slave plague planned in Virginia by white-bodied and slaves. At this time most Negroes were in slavery, 1861. Conference time affords the minister a chance to sit on the "anxious bench." The "thin blue line" of Civil War veterans grows thinner still. The APEG AMERICAN chronicles the passing this week of George W. Towson, with a record of fifty continuous years in the express business. Nobody has seemed to figure it out, how this Daylight Saving Plan would affect the thousands of colored people engaged in domestic service. The advent of Spring is indicative not only by the weather, but also by the number of poems that the Editor of the Forum receives daily. Liberia is having a hard time to take Camu to lend her the $50,000, he promised her; while Haiti is having a hard time to keep Camu from lending her $10,000, she does not want. Can he beat it. $57.700 For A Home Money cannot be scarce in view of the fact that the Washington District M. E. Conference in session at Parksburg, W. Va., this week voted to tax each church member thirty cents a head, in order to build an Episcopal residence in Washington, D. C., for the head of the Washington area costing $77,700. Helping Bishop Brooks As indicated in his letter printed in last week's AFRO-AMERICAN? Bishop W. Sampson Brooks failed from Liberia, West Africa for Baltimore on Monday. One of his reasons for coming is to raise the funds to complete his industrial school, now under construction, and finished all except the roof. Another reason, which he does not mention, is to get a seat from the tropical Liberian climate. Persons accustomed to the temperate climate of America can really realize the effect of the alternate seasons of African heat and rain. Europeans, who are sent to Africa by commercial firms usually sign a contract for two years at a time which includes a six month vacation at home. Actually they spend only eighteen months in the tropics. Bishop Brooks has spent two years in Liberia and deserves a rest. Equally as important, if his years of sacrifice are to mean anything for the redemption of Africa, he must have funds to carry out the work he has started. Liberia is at present a country without a public school, a public road and with only one post-office. Up to the age of twelve, children wear no clothes, and are ignorant of modern agricultural methods. This is the Liberia Bishop Brooks is attempting to help, and his efforts should appeal to those outside his own church as well as those within it. For The Spingarn Medal The Committee of Award of the Spingarn Medal which every year presents a medal to the colored American who shall have made the highest achievement during the preceding year, as usual at this time of the year invites suggestions. One of the men the Committee cannot overlook this year is Professor George W. Carver, chemist of Tuskegee, who has succeeded in getting 261 products from the peanut and sweet potato. These products include such things as milk, flour, rubber, dyes and inks. Then there is Dr. Carter Godwin Wooden of Institute, West Virginia, whose latest book "The Negro church" is just off the press, and whose "Journal of Negro History" published quarterly has attracted the attention of the Rockefeller Foundation. Finally there is our own Bishop W. Sampson Brooks, who is setting up in Liberia an industrial school on the Tuskegee model, financed thru his own efforts, and dedicated to the ideal that the proper place to educate the Africans is on their native soil. In previous years, medals have been awarded to men like Colonel Charles Young, Charles Gilpin, Dr Ernest Just, Stanley Braithwaite Dr. W. E. B. Dukois and others and Dr. W. E. B. Dukois. It can be really said that the three men mentioned above belong in the same class. City Should Have This Law *Processions and parades, except funerals, shall not be allowed except when the president of Police, when permit shall designate the time and route of such procession or parade, and no part of such procession except according to the terms of such permit.* It shall, however, that to permit shall be issued for any precession or parade of any group, body or organization, the members of which are so customed, dressed, mushed or disguised as to be believed part in authorized ceremonies. The above police regulations were issued in Washington, D. C. last week by the District Commissioners. When the Washington Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People learned that the Ku Klux Klan planned a parade there, they took the matter up with the police, who gave the assurances that no such parade would be held. The new regulations were the result. Not only would parades of Ku Klux be banned under these regulations, but the Kluxer's growing habit of sending a mask committee with donations to church services, and with wreaths to funerals of Klansmen would be prohibited. In such widely separated portions of this state as Hagerstown and Hyattsville, the Ku Klux have appeared masked in public. To the credit of the latter town, it must be said that the proposed public parade was forbidden by the police authorities. Senator King's Resolution Despite all the hubbub raised in Congress over the Bonus question and the Four Power treaty, we must not overlook the fact that Senator King has introduced in the Senate a resolution calling for the withdrawal of American marines from Haiti at the earliest possible moment. The resolution calls upon President Harding to denounce the treaty of 1915 between the United States and Haiti, under which marines have occupied the island and terrorized the natives; 2nd, to take such steps as are necessary for the convening of the Haitian Assembly and the election of a president to succeed the incumbent whose office expires May 15, 1922; and 3rd to withdraw all U. S. forces and interference as soon as the new government is installed. Unfortunately, the Harding administration is not very much different from the Wilson administration, which permitted Franklin Roosevelt and Joseph Daniels to write a new constitution for Haiti. President Harding has sent General John H. Russell to Haiti as dictator, with secret instructions, too secret even to be given to the Senate. Whether the President will keep up the muddling interference with the sovereignty of Haiti and Santo Domingo remains to be seen, and it is for this reason that the King resolution ought to be supported. While individuals and organizations are writing the Senators asking their support of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, they might also ask their Senators to get behind the King Resolution, (S.

Frederick Douglass' confession of faith is one of the remarkable documents featuring Chaplin T. G. Steward's "Fifty Years in the Army," which book jokes off the press of the A. M. E. Book Concern in Philadelphia. Rev. Steward, who is well known as chaplain of the 24th U. S. Infantry for more than a decade and who helped and waters M. E. Churchman, was pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, Washington in 1886. At that time Frederick Douglass was a regular attendant, although not hearing that Mr. Douglass was not a believer in Christianity and had little respect for ministers. Rev. Steward wrote him a letter asking his views on Christianity, which Frederick Douglass wrote under the title of folly. "As to my iniquity, so called, it has never denied any attribute of the Doly. To me, God is good, love and to glorify God is to lead a life in harmony with these attributes. In this respect man is related to his Creator as the watch to its maker. A watch glorifies its manufacture, whereas God its manufacture, which is to keep good time—always to be true, and never to be false in its measurements of time. For This Life Christianity was for this life not hereafter believed Mr. Douglas who continued: "Christianity is nothing to me, except as it stands as the representative of the sight of the soul for the herein is the true glory of God.

Headquarters 628 N. Eutaw Negro Post Office Employees A concern of "expert" investigators of New York City was hired by a commission of Congress to investigate the claim that the white employees are of the higher compensation than the color- employees. Even if we do not question the truth of this statement, we must in common sense be attention to the utterance of the CONCLU- claims which this investigation claims to have arrived since the average white employee is more competent than the average Negro employee, the post-office department should dismiss all Negro employees and hire any whitees as an "economy" This conclusion is the fact that the highest efficiency of all, would be to dismiss the incompetent whites and apart from what is purely theological and abstract, I see in it means of promoting honorable character and conduct; and, as I have said, for this reason, I conclude my mite towards its support. "I have still another reason for this action, though not one of equal weight with that already given. It is because we want to teach our joy opportunities for assembling themselves together, for moral and spiritual improvement, equal to those enjoyed by others. Communicable and well-appointed church, in pulpit, and architecture, is attractive to the people who assemble, and commands respect from the outward world. The joy of the priest Episcopal Church (the name by the way is altogether too long and silted for my taste) is such a church, and therefore, I want to see through it. No Denominational For Her "No reason why Mr. Douglas supported the church, but would not join any as a member, was because he did not believe in denominationism. He wrote on this "Whether the Christian religion is for one race, or for all races; whether free salvation or pre-creation is the true meaning of the Bible; whether the Roman Catholic church is the true Church, or the innumerable Protestant sects, constitute the true Church—About these and other oddities contradictions I might write interminably, but I lay them aside in that spirit of charity which leaves each to stand or fall to his own master."

There is no "average man," except in the case of the statistician, by himself, complete and whole, when it comes to the practical business of carrying canceling the statistician tells us that one and seventen twenties man (1.7 man) has the influenza, we would be just as sensible in expecting to find a one-and-a-half man as to expect to find the "average man" carrying mail. THE AFRO-AMERICAN E AFRO P. M. Woelper An Letter Signed "J New Head Of Post Office Say employee Will Get Square Dea Of Color P.M. Woelper Answers Letter Signed "Justice" The incumbent postmaster of Baltimore said at one time he would make the best postmaster that Baltimore ever had and it is to be hoped that in line with that evinced intention he will make it his duty to investigate the unpleasant working conditions that It will be remembered that the Falls Station idea was one of the new and pet schemes of the former postmaster and is a branch of the Post-office handling parcel post and second and third class mail exclusively. When the Falls Station was opened and fifty for sixty years. He was said by those students of postal development and experienced foreman that he was the most especially since the Superintendent chosen was a man who had had absolutely no previous experience in handling man of mail in a supervisory force, most cooperation of the electrical force there assigned, the station did prove a success. It is the ability of the force to handle all amounts of mail were that during the time when the station was on trial, the supervisors were not able to handle the "obvious load" of the force should be in no manner lowered or harmed by any unfair treatment. Since the supervisors were not able to handle the "obvious load" of the precluded supervisors is showing and every day tailing the rights and privileges of the working force until more training the rights and privileges of the precluded is the right to breathe. All sorts of methods are used by the supervisors to now the only satisfied men are those who because of their stoop-hip posture out much work and very little study. The new orders are to the petty kind that exasperates him, but the new orders will be subordination and subsequent dignismal. Demerits are handed out and subordination never considered. It is always assumed that the supervisor making the personal tattiveness toward any man and so his word is the last word and demerits are demanded. Unilateral schemes are used to force men to resign and characterize a man and so effect his efficiency record beyond the safety policy. Superintendent seems to think it is his duty and no effort is made to the service and no effort is made to be any way fair to men on the blink. To report this to the Postmaster himself would mean an everlasting and so no one can take it upon himself to be a monster in his life. It can be seen that conflations as picture] In some places as to the pleasant conditions surrounding postal work are not as Commands Miss Meerdent For Pushing "Indecent, Letter" Charge Against Carl Deder, White I wish to commend personally as well as publicly, Miss Hirth Meredith of 1121 Narker for the stand I have taken, having a white man, brought to justice for having written her indecent letter. I heartily encourage every woman ever molested by a white man. To those who have not thought of or do not know of the law, I will defend the laws of the State stand as much for the protection of our women as for the well being/of others if we will only vigorously press them into action. Manhood of civilization has ever tried to throw a strong arm of protection around children and women, and it is still doing the same. I except the harbored cracker of the South, keep down in the white man's heart is a sense of justice he can not get away from unless he violates the principles of Americanism and his intelligence will allow him to over-ride. I love to know of such occurrances as the one here mentioned. Such contributes greatly solving the three great problems of self-respect, self-respect and self-control—these will lead any people to life's highest power. DR. J. L. SHELTON Thinks Whole Race Should Go Behind The N. A. A. C. P. To the Editor: Since 1863, the Negro is supposed to have been free, that he? It is true that he is subjected to absolute slavery, but he is constantly being refused higher positions and is forced to live in the South, forced to ride to himself in the South, barred from many privileges which he should enjoy as well as the white races, and above all he is still being fought against very hard N. A. A. C. P. is some-about him a lack of cooperation. It is true however that the N. A. A. C. P. is doing wonderful work, but he must work alone. There is much need for love and co-operation among the whole country, the race, as well as the fact and acts accorded to I am afraid the task undertaken by the N. A. A. C. P. will prove difficult, but I will eventually succeed. Dr. Frank Crane in an article to Current Opinion says, "The Negro has been the most theist in the world, it is true, because the Negro's brain was never believed to be capable of development.

Really the only solution is to have an ambassador that has had the necessary experience to qualify for such a position and one who has the experience of the men as men should be handled. The present incumbent superintendent of the Falls Station is very well competent but it is a very weakly competent. POST-MASTER Before publishing the above letter, it was brought to the attention of Post-master Wooler, who told a representative of his institution that according to his observation as had come to him regarding the Falls Station branch, the complaints set forth by "Justice" are at variance with the facts. He said that since coming into office, six years ago he had visited stations of the many branch stations of the Baltimore post-office among them the Falls. Station branch where he met and shook hands with all the employees, but not the colored, and that a single complaint had been made to him. He said that he believed in personal contact with employees and believed in their chance to acquaint him with any being persecuted against them whether they be white or black; that he believed in a square deal for it and so long as he was a post-master of order will be very man regardless of order will get a square deal In proof of the latter decimation, he informed the writer that since assuming it, Johnson of the Falls Station branch, from a regular clerkship to a special clerkship carrying out the duties of his per year, with a similar increase next year if he makes good; and that no longer than last week, two colored in the main, two colored likewise in the regular, to special clerkships with a similar increase of salary, which also will be increased $100,000 next year. As being handed down, the Post-master said that all demiens must be passed upon by him after the facts in the case have been given. And that he will have been given demiens issued to the Falls Station during his short incumency than to any other business. However, he said that he will convenience, and if the compliments of "Justice" are true, he will see that they are denied. As he said, he will converse with other than a square deal to every employee. tego professors, physicians, and students as well.

But with even good per cent of the race more intelligent and intelligent than leaving our gains will practically ignorant our gains will be little, but if each individual considers it his duty to love his neighbor it will with the children and bring them as well as himself up to the highest standards, then the race succeeds, by acting what it has struggled diligently for. **HOWARD L.

Eighty-five Pounders Most Popular During the progress of the tournament, interest gradually began to grow keenest in the performance of the boys in the 85 pound class, the smallest in the league. This interest however, was not inspired altogether by the size of the boys; much of it was to the fact that the boys of the league were done by the boys in this class. And as the schedule narrowed down, the followers of the games found their attention becoming centered on the skill gradually being manifested by the teams of Schools 110 and 103. Thus there was little surprise when these two teams moved down all opposition and reached the minds. Opinion then was narrowed down as to which of them would capture the title. The "stage" finally appeared to favor 101 Wins Championship The first clash of the championship matches was held, He won 10 to 9, and he won 10 to 6. He won 10 to 6. This third game necessary as the teams were playing best two out of three. This third game was guarded at the "Y" "gym" last Friday afternoon, and proved to be the most thrilling game of all. Playing like grown-up stars, teams battled about the floor rather asking nor giving quarters. They were out for victory, and so force was the struggle that no one could tell just which would emerge victory. Even those who had picked 10, were now beginning to win for the first time, and then the other taking the lead in the score. This kept up until the last half minute of play with 110 now leading by one and one half points, the score standing 7-5-1. The crowd which was composed principally of the schoolmasters of the team was yelling and shrieking inunctions and an agreement to their respective favorites, for the game had been of such a nature that the roofters that the victor was never a unit until the final whistle had sounded. Nicholson A Hero Five seconds clicked, six, seven, and now only twenty seconds of play was left, and then—Something happened, and you could have heard the boys of School 102, yelling five blocks away, for with those few seconds of play left, Colson, the elongated center of his had dished across the court in front of his goal, leaped into the air to hit the ball and while going away he cast it back over his left, shoulder in a notorious position, and had brought it to School 102 by half a point, the final score being 75 to 7. Boys Played Well All the boys composing these ten teams played so well, through- the tournament that selecting the ones whose playing stood out most impressed others, would be a hard task. If there was a mar- sim in the offensive and defensive department it goes to Shields, Hunt, Robinson and Young, as forward, and Diggs and Wheatley at guard. in shooting, the stars are more easily selected, the leading per- former in this department, being Robinson with 16 field goals durin- g the tournament.

Class Championship After the 5-pounders of School 110 and failed to win the cham- plishment in that class, the ad- herents of the school now pinned their failure to the 100-1b team, which had batted in way to the position of opponents of 112 in the innings, in final style. Like the 85 pounders, each team had won a victory, and thus this second set-to promised to be a hot affair. Those who had held this view, were not disappointed, and so fiercely did these, their struggle. that referee Freericks was kept busy pointing out the fouriers, which added a half point to the opponent's score. Both side were offenders in this. The first half, 112 led by one and a half points, the score standing 7 to 5.4. During the final half, penalties for toiling against 112 added another point to 110, while penalties and another point to 109 added who had already made one give. School 112 the victory, 10 to 6.4. Of these two teams there was even less to choose from in the way of picking the outstanding player, however if a special word must be said for any particular player, we should mention, Randolph Tucker of 112, who did first-class guarding for his team through the season, shooting a half down player—three on each team was nearly that for honors, namely Gilmore, Porter and Robinson, who scored 6 each during the tournament, L.

Last week the owners of the St. Louis Giants, which own the league, and Negro League threw up the club, giving as their reason the fact that they were so far in debt that they could not see their way clear to longer maintain the club. Andrew (Hube) Foster, president of the league, suggested that a number of the business men of St. Louis get together and finance a new club, and in response, Richard W. Kent and Samuel Shepard called a number of others together and a new organization that the same players who were in the line-up last year will be retained in the new club. The club will play under a new name.

The rivalry between these teams has been of long standing and whenever they meet fur is willed to fly, thick and fast, and so was San迪雷. There were times when the contest took on the aspect of a football clash, and there must have been many a bruise on the bodies of the lassies when they awoke next morning. During the first half, it looked as if the High School maledicts wouldn't have a look-in, for the girls from out Hellen way, had tied them up so completely with the latter on the long end 7 to 1. But their jubilance was doomed for a rude awakening. When the whistle sounded for the second half, the High damsels took to the court with determination stamped on their faces. And then the tide turned. The way they threw themselves into the conflict, swept the High Damsels feet, and they were practically as helpless as babies for the balance of the game, being able to gain only one point during this half while the High girls hung up 10. Macer was the star of the game, scoring three field baskets and three fouls for nine of High's eleven points.

To the martial strains of "Humny," the Black Cross brass band swing into Sventhal's face from One and Thirty-fifth behind. Behind it marched thousands of the followers of Prince Nebacus, led by the prince himself and a few companies of Black Cross soldiers, in the face of uniforms light color of red. triumph on the roofs to the curbs, one saw nothing but heads—heads of all Harleen's colored populations, for when a band plays anywhere past the Hundreds on Street. Between the East River and Morningside Park, heads like frogs after thunderstorms, show up on everything: doors, offices, trees, lamp-posts, blue but heads! One of these heads was borne on the shoulders of Toussaint Washington and his wife, Toussaint I. He was as heavy as August afternoon. And, this heaviness was due to the fact that Toussaint had not been able to be sleepy very minute but Toussaint had not been near his bed in over four hours, when he went to his bed though he slept regularly, and at night. From ten at night until cushion o'clock in the morning, Toussaint Washington affiliated in Baltimore and Riveride Park. He was acting-Night Superintendent, Junior General, Bellflower Extreminary and Chief Elective and Switcheboard board was hired, principally for the latter task. The office of acting-Night Superintendent did not require much time as there was little to superintendent after ten of his duties, and as long as it stayed in its place the acting-Super did not bother it. The office of Junior-General carried light tueses in summer; and after ten of his duties he attached to it in winter. Toussaint made no coadjunct because the elevator shaft was dirty and it was so easy to throw on a few showers of coal on a night between the showers, the bellflower supposed to oobt, but who could refuse to post a late letter or run over to the breadway Drug Store for a few bottles of gingerale or a marmalade of curds especially with such kindness was allowed with a fit? The remaining time of Toussaint's wakeful hours were divided psychologically between the switchboard and the kitchen, because in reality Toussaint slept from one to seven every night unless some tenant caught him red-handed on his laptop. He had a happy combination for some folks, and for Toussaint in particular. When a number was wanted he was busy running the elevator and, when the elevator was wounded, he was busy cleaning the big parade passed. With his own eyes, Toussaint Washington saw Prince Nebuchadnei, arrayed in all black. He read all the banners carried by the marchers, one of which read: "WE ARE ONE GOING BACK TO AFRICA." Another announced that night that Having nothing better to do until time to go to work, he sat with five-thousand other sons of Hum, while Prince Nebuchadnei and his disciples spoke words of cheer and consolation to the children meeting the Prince called upon his hearers to buy stock in the Black Cross Corporation, in membership and airline transport Harlem's colored popu- WEEKLY WOMAN'S PAGE lation to the fair shores of Africa. His appeal was so strong that Toussaint Washington invested five dollars in cash and four dollars in hair—he had earned $250 psychologically and earned money in the venture. "The scheme sounds good to me," thought Toussaint as he left the meeting. His clock sounded ten and Toussaint hastened to make connections with his job. It was a quarter past ten when he went to the treatment house; and the subway, which covers a multitude of sin daily, was blamed for the delay. "Use been on the way since nine-thirty last to the day when he was to relieve. "You better change your way of traveling and take a taxi," hotly advised his partner, whose girl was awaiting him in the park nearby, or you'll let your happy The apartment house elevator was built for the convenience of Toussaint. It was six-fetet wide. Toussaint had the unhoused seat across the back of the lift fitted him perfectly. Few New Yorkers have better bedside chairs. The entire shift was panelled, the doors on each floor. This made it utterly impossible for one to tell whether the car was up or on. The providers knew that they rang and rang for the elevator and—walked up. Meanwhile the life was parked somewhere or anywhere, the roof with not a traffic cop in sight. Last call, usually made about one in four, the house was parked at twenty-fourth the night following the meeting at Freedman Hall because it was tery warm and Toussaint was tired. "Last Call for Top Floor Dwellers," No. It wasn't made in quite so bold a manner. List car was swapped out onto the sidewalk, looked up and down the street and avenue; went back inside, locking the front door after him, put the quiet car into the garage, waved bells, and retreated into the elevator and closed the door. If one had not put in an appearance before that time—"Good Night!"—the front door keys, usually spent the night in some hotel or, if they were so fortunate as to have a private wire, they called up from some drug or cigar store to have someone come down and let them Toussaint had completed his last call and was closing the elevator door, then he milled millionaire cash, caught his eye from the front door, necessitating a slight delay in his retiring, then sleeping. He re-locked again, he greeted Mr. Oldfield with a grimy "Good Evening!" "Way, Toussaint! Are you still looking here? Haven't seen you in many a day." "Yessir! Still here!" said Toussaint. "Yum see, after one 1 in afternoon. A moment after Mr. Oldfield closed the door of his apartment and Toussaint parked the elevator then and there and retired for the In five minutes he was asleep. In five more he was in an airplane on his way to Africa. The noise of the plane's motions and the noise of the elevator bell were like so much music to him as he speeded toward the land of Prince Nebocus. Lying flat on his back on the elevator seat, his right hand rested on the control lever. All the while he imagined he was doing straight flying. Across the Atlantic, skirting the British Isles, over Gibraltar, Toussaint was not long in reaching the land in which the hind invested his five dollars. THE R GROWER pressing and Grower. TS WANTED.

The bombs burst; the front door. Mr. Smithson, who had remained in his office in an attempt to make out his income tax schedule and who was not feeling any too jubilant, had been let in by his maid after calling up for every place he found in the neighborhood. "Damn that elevator-boy! I'm going to break this up right now!" Then he proceeded to ring, kick, and bang the elevator door. He was truly aroused by the bomb. An arrow grazed Toussaint's check. UR into the air he went again. "I'm gain' back where I come from now while go's good! This is no problem." Taking a more southerly route back, he flew over to Paramaribo and headed straight to New York City and Harlem. Meanwhile, he marched into the busiest in quest of Toussaint, or anything, looked up into the shaft and saw that the car was moving, and; fearing an accident had happened, threw the big lever which started the elevator downward. "Engin' trouble!" sighed Toussaint from the clouds, as his plane came down like a rock, over Harlem, and crashed through the roof of the courthouse. The elevator struck the basement floor like lead. Toussaint was hurried from his seat-bed. In his fury, Mr. Smithson had aroused the whole house and someone turned in the fire. He was brought to a nearby hospital suffering from brushes and shock. All that day he talked incoherently of his voyage. The boss decided that something must have been wrong with the lift and gave him his job back, when he hospitalized. Who wouldn't give a hurt man his job back, anyway. Toussaint Washington never slent on his job again. Good apple sauce—really good apple sauce—may be used at any of the three temperatures. Good apple sauce is just as acceptable as ice-cream for dinner dessert. But it must be good with plenty of flavor, no fat, and not too cold. It will be very cold, with small cakes or cookies, or with crisp waters, and you have something everybody will like. Vary the flavor occasionally to make it more tempting. Stewed Apples Pare, quarter, and core apples; put them into a saucepan with enough water to nearly cover the apples; to nearly cover the fire and cook until soft; remove from the fire, add a piece of butter of the size of a walnut for a quart of the stewed apple, and sugar to the stewed apple or mace may be added if liked.

American Negro Poetry Ways With Stockings NAPOLEON BONAPARTE wore two pairs of stockings in cold weather. A woolen pair beneath to keep his legs warm and a silk pair underneath to him an appearance of elegance. Some women of this day and generation (follow Bonaparte's exile) wear stockings beneath and the wool outside. It wool irritates your skin, you will find this a good arrangement. Then you will find that wool stockings are more durable if they are worn over a pair of silk stockings. French women have been known to wear in very cold weather dish-colored wool stockings with thin black stockings outside. Frequent washing does far less harm to stockings than wear after they have become soiled. If you wear stockings every day you will find your darning problem reduced to the zero point.

AGENTS WANTED TYSON SCO PARIS.TENN WEAR OUT CHILDREN WITH PIANO LESSON DON'T WEAR OUT CHILDREN WITH PIANO LESSON If Youngsters Prefer Dishwashing to Piano Playing Says Expert, Let 'Em Wash Dishes Recently in one of our large cities a girl fourteen years old ran away from her home and took up domestic service in another home to escape the piano lessons she had daily piano lessons with her mother, the child must have love, The girl had no love for domestic work, and little aptitude for it. The records show that when the runaway was found pinned home, she and she were borne her separate from her with equal fortitude, but even the washing of kettles and the peeling of potatoes, the girl asserted, were preferable to her daily drudgery at the piano, and she was persuaded to return home only to be treated the same and that instrument should also be accompanied forever. There may be different opinions as to the settlement of this particular case, but there can be little doubt in any reason that the association of little girls and pianos is carried much too far. Almost every mother, even mother-in-law, demands a lesson in piano as necessary parts of a girl-child's life. Countless poor women are paying 25 cents each for lessons that are far too dear to the price; the parents cheerfully pay five dollars a lesson on the chance of a some day hearing little Mary or Katie or Jane drag a faint echo of "humoresque" on an untreated piano.

The structure which is three stories in height is located in 1004 and 1006 Washington Street. It cost $200,000 and is entirely modern in its appointments. The hotel has 70 rooms, many with private bath; a four chair barber shop, cafe, and an eight table billiard room. The theater seats 600 patrons, and besides being equipped to care for small road shows and large public events, the machine machines and a raven half-tone screen. A picture policy will prevail. The building is steam heated and electric lighted, the former being from its own plant. The Ben Roy Productions, Ben D.

Wellmon and his world famous International Orchestra and singing troubadours opened a series of engagements in Paris at the Salle Gaveau, one of the leading music balls of France. The attention of the commander of the attention of the French and with great promptness became the subjects of much favorable comment in the Paris papers. Henry (Gang) Jines 'Hits' During the month of February, "The Broadway Scandals" played New York City. In the cast of the Ace burlesque show is one 'Gang' Jines, an actor with a head. The net result of the engagement for this clever colored comedian is a collection of clips from every profession published, for the profession and practically all of the dailies. The papers were unanimous in praising his work. That is some accomplishment in the city of New York. Potter's Woman Orchestra Clarence Potter, who has in a year's time built his musical association in New York up to a membership of more than two hundred, added another under the supervision of his wife, Mrs. Rebecca Potter, who handles the traps. Mrs. Agnes Buckley is at the piano, Martha West plays banjoing; Gladys Legall, bass violin; Carrie Giles, saxophone, Gusie Bloom, Alma Moses and Clare Vogel are the entertainers who work with the orchestra.

"LADIES MUST LIVE" Drama Dealing With Marriage For Love Or Money Coming To Roosevelt Theatre Ever since modern society reached its present stage of development, in regard to marital conditions, no question has caused whether a girl marry for love or money. This perennial perplexity, is the basis of "Ladies Must Live" the film, George Loan Tucker cinema production which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre for a two-days, with pretty Betty Compson in the solo role. "Tales Must Live" tells the story of Christine Blecker, who has been reared in luxury, through the generosity of her wealthy father-in-law, and is completing education in law, and summary.

JACKSON'S PAGE Gilpin Hates The Character He Plays In "Emperor Jones' Great Colored Actor Says He Excels In Comedy Not Tragedy Do you suppose I love the part I play in the "Emperor Jones," Charles Gilpin told a Hagerstown newspaper man the other day. Do you suppose I like this part? I play in the role of a monkey to no man. It is a means to an end. But I abhor Brutus Jones. I run the gamut of all the emotions in the play, but the acting is wasted. Audiences aren't composed of critics. Nine-teeths of the people wonder what it is a about — what it is about. "I believe an actor should lift himself to the level of a part, not that the role should be made to fit the limitations of the actor." A comedy is now being written for Gilpin to play when the run of "Emperor Jones" ceases. Comedy is what Gilpin thinks he excels in. "I'm a comedian, not a tragedian," he said, "and this is not Brutus Jones talking now, but Gilpin shows the play, but I do. That is the vanity of the actor. I want to show my versatility." He spoke of the "vanity of the actor." But Gilpin is not vain. He knows his abilities; he realizes their value; he is anxious to make the most—materially—out of his genius. He wants to be recognized, not others from his education, not as the greatest Negro actor, but as the greatest actor. Gilpin has been playing for over 30 years. He has trod the stage in obscurity. The footlights behind which he acted did not throw their reflection very far. But in "Abraham Lincoln" his first chance came to show he had more than talent. And in "Emperor Jones" New York itself recognized him. Bert Williams' Will Filed New York, March 25—The will of Bert Williams was filed recently in the Surrogate's Court.

CONTRACT MAXIE AND GEORGE GET 5 YR. CONTRACT Maxie and George, a clever pair of colored dancers who for the past year have been favorites in the vaudeville houses and clubs of New York, have signed a five year contract with George White and joinq the "Scandals" Saturday, March 18th at Philadelphia preparatory to opening with the show in Boston on the twentieth. The contract provides for a graduating increase in salary for each of the five years, and it is reported on Broadway that other good base salary make it one of the most favorable contracts ever made by colored performers. These two natural dancers, who have the unusual family name of McCree, are cousins. They hall from Chicago and stepped into vaudeville with a group of unique dance steps they had perfected while playing with the Whitman team. They were the first team they established some records. On one occasion they played two Schubert houses and a club during the same week. They were the first male team, and the first colored act to remain in the Winter Garden for three weeks continuously. Then they played a return engagement. Whitney and Tutt's "Smarter Set" jumped from Dayton, Ohio to take advantage of an opportunity to attend the New York engagement at the Lafayette Theater. Business Manager Azorzyk got into town with a show so close upon his heels as to prevent the usual display of his business, cultural and community skills so effectively that an $800 advance sale was registered before the opening Monday, March 20. Albert Smith In Rome Alfred Renforth Smith, a promising young artist of the race, with ten etchings in the hands of New York commissors and two ex-tennis players, under the auspices of the Independent Artists, is in Rome with the Seth Weeks Jazz Band at the Grand Hotel, where the engagement permits his pursuing his passion. The ambitious young man promises to become one of America's stars in his particular field. The band has just concluded a winter season at Municipal Casino at Nice, France. Among the members are Mr. Weeks, Mr. Albert Smith and Miss Weeks Grendy, all three from New York where Mr. Weeks was once president of the Clet Club.

Margaret Wycherly, an established artist, will appear in the leading white role, and will be the second woman in the case Two other white characters are male parts. Alex Rogers, one of the best character actors of the race, himself well known as a dramatist, will have an important part.

"I visited the Sixty-Third Street Music Hall recently, where every Wednesday night a colored musical comedy company called "Shuffle Along" assists Broadway performance. In the orchestra I saw dozens of prominent actors and actresses from the big Broadway productions, who applauded wildly the comedy lines of F. E. Miller and Aubrey Lyles, the Negro authors of the book, who played the comedy leads, and the catchy music of Noble Sissle and the band of the orchestra in the remarkable cast of the all-Negro musical melange called "Shuffle Along." "The presentation and success of "Shuffle Along" have drawn into New York Negro actors and singers.
