OIL QUEEN LONELY, BROUGHT HUBBY HOME FROM SCHOOL
Wired All Way Across Continent From Kansas City To Newly Wed Spouse Studying at Lincoln
Kansas City, Mo. (Special) Jan. 4—Kennard Campbell, 19-year-old graduate of the local high school, who was recently married quietly to Miss Sarah Rector, the millionaire oil queen, materialized this year at Lincoln University, Pa. He stayed there just two weeks and then left hurriedly for home.
The story of his sudden flight halfway across the continent to join his bride after an absence of just two weeks has just leaked out.
At the bottom of it was a telegram from Mrs. Campbell to her husband. There were just five words in it. Campbell returning to his dormitory from chapel exercises broke open the envelope of a telegram brought to him by one of his classmates. It read, "I'm lonely, come at once, Sarah." Hastily packing a few things together, young Kennard left for the West on the next train and Lincoln University has not heard from him since.
WERE SCHOOLMATES
Both young Campbell and his bride were schoolmates at the Lincoln High School here, and like many other youngsters not yet of age "kept company." Seeing that he was diligent in his studies, friends of the had raised money to pay his expenses of a school at Lincoln (Pa.) school and Mrs. Rector, attracted to him also guaranteed to defray his other expenses.

KELLY MILLER SUGGESTSCALL OF CONFERENCE
Religious, Political and Social Organizations Urged To Unite On National Program
VOTE IS ASKED FOR
"If We Continue To Pull Apart, We Will Pull To Pieces," Says Educator
Washington, D. C., Jan. 3—A call for a nation-wide conference of all the religious, social and political organizations among colored people is suggested by Dean Kelly Miller, of Howard University in a statement issued this week. Dean Miller says:
The demand for a nation-wide conference is imperative. This conference should not be fostered by any one organization, but every type of agency or interest know at work should unite upon a call to consider "The state of the Race." Political movements such as the N. A. A. C. P., the Equal Rights League, the Lincoln League, the Race Congress; religious bodies like the National Baptist Convention, the African Methodist Episcopal, the A. M. E. Zion, the C. M. E. and the M. E. Churches, as well as those of smaller numbers; business and economic agencies like the Business League, the Urban League; educational associations, fraternal organizations, the Federation of Women's Clubs, the Press Association, and all well established movements of wide ramification should be represented. The time has come for all to pull together. If we continue to pull apart, we will pull to pieces. The whole is greater than any of its parts. The members of the body can comprise the properly subordinated to the welfare of the body as a whole.
It may be just as well to anticipate the objection that several such abortive attempts have been made before. While no one of these efforts has been permanent each endeavor has left a residuum of having good. The race today has more maturity and manned judgment. Many will recall the effort of Mr. Joel E. Spingarn at a race conference at his summer home. If an alien to the group saw the necessity of formulating a common program, surely we must heed the call to conference. Cannot Be Carried Further By Whites
The Negro can on longer look to the white man for an intimate advice and direct one outside of a group can regulate the intimate procedure for the inside. The white philanthropists have done a good part. The people who must be helped forever are not worthy of helped at all. Self expression on part of the Negro will encourage our white friends extend the necessary assistance, but they can provide to him their shoulders any further. The Negro henceforth must talk with his own legs. The white man can only furnish him a crutch.
Lunching and lawlessness of which the Negro is the chief victim, the shift of population, congestion in cities and the acute situation resulting therefrom the moral aloofness and religious indifference of the adducted class, the downward moral tendency of the times in which our young people are being carried away, the necessity for cooperation in business and trade, the growing apathy of the race and the need for concerted endeavor to stem the side all unite in demanding the proposed conference at an early date. The situation calls loudly for the requisite race statesman ship. Will it be forthcoming?

Lynched for Trying To Hide Son From a Florida Mob
Bronson, Fla., Jan. 4—Samuel Carter, 45 years of a respected resident of this place, was shot to death by a mob last night after he had admitted aiding his son to escape the police.
Young Carter was sought by officers because he was thought to know the whereabouts of an escaped convict charged with assaulting a white woman. The two were seen together several hours before the assault.
The older Carter faced the mob when the leaders knocked on his door, admitted that he had helped to get his son away by hiding him in the back part of his buggy. He led the mob to the point where he said his son jumped out and continued on foot. When bloodhounds were not able to pick up the scent, the members of the crowd vented their anger on the older Carter by ridding his body with bullets, and leaving it on the country road.

CITY COUNCIL FIGHT BITTER IN CHICAGO

FORMER OWNER SQUEALS
Says Alderman Got Police To Let Place Stay Open All Night Long
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 3.—The race for City Council is the bitterest ever waged between two colored aspirants in the city's history. Aud slinging has gone so far, it is reported that the voters may be aroused to unusual action.
Alderman Louis B. Anderson, who is a candidate to succeed himself, is being opposed by Virgil Williams, urged by his friends to make a statement. Mr. Williams gave the following to The Whip last week.
MY PARTNER IN CABARET
In March 1918, I made an attempt to open and operate the cabaret latter known as the Royal Gardens. It had been operated under white management as The Monarch. The cabaret was a saloon and under other names. Two policemen were killed there, and the place was finally closed by the police.
Upon application to the owner of the building, I was informed that it could not be opened for cabaret purposes. Finally I succeeded in interesting Alderman Anderson to the extent that he had the police had removed. For this service he was given a one-third partnership in the place. My other partner was William Boltmore and his in cash for his one-third interest. Anderson's interest did not cost him one cent in cash. He also arranged to have the Royal Gardens allowed to run all night without police in retreatment.
MADE HUGE PROPITS
During three years that the Royal Gardens was operated under this arrangement, Alderman Anderson received over $25,000 as his share of the profits. Bottoms, after having realized a payoff, an interest on his property, sold out his share. Anderson then insisted that his interest be raised from 331-3 to 40 percent. I was forced to concede to his demands, because, although he had invested no money in the cabaret, his withdrawal from the partnership would probably mean its closing by the police.
Finally in 1921, after there had come a slump in business, Anderson sold his interest to Mrs. Florence Majors, who then held the property. Thus cultivated in addition to the $25,000 he had received, the price of a 40 per cent share of the business, without investing a single cent.
I objected to partnership with Mrs. Majors and turned the entire business over to her. Thus ended my relations with Louis B. Anderson, and they have not been resumed in any manner since.

The South Helps
In the South, where ten years ago only a few solitary individuals dared oppose lynching and where the crime was commonly condoned by influential newspaper officials prime the gosset, there is now wide-spread opposition to mob murder. The opponents of lynching now include such powerful organs as the Atlanta Constitution, the Greensboro, N. C. Dally News, the Macon, Ga. Telegraph, the Houston, Post, and the San Antonio, Texas Express.
Powerful groups of white women in Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Virginia, Tennessee and Texas have publicly repudiated the lynching mob as a "protector of womanhood," and such courageous men as the Rev. Dr. M. Ashby-Jones of Atlanta, Governor John M. Parker of Louisiana, and ex-Governor Hugh. M. Mursey of Georgia have gone before the country as opposing the mob.
The Campaign Against Lynching
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, eight years ago, began a concentrated campaign against lynching and published reports of the investigators. The facts have been placed in the entire civilized world and gradually a public sentiment has been formed which is given by Rev. J. A. Reld and Mr. demanding the abolition of the "Shame of America."

Infantry Will Not Be Moved From Fort Benning, By War Department
Washington, D. 4, January 4
The 24th Infantry, which was disarmed and whose issue subjected to militia at Fort Benning, Ga., recently will not be transferred to some other post in the North, the War Department told the Arso-American today.
The statement of Adjutant General Davis reads:
"The recent transfer of the 24th Infantry was a necessary incident in the reduction of the Army as prescribed by Congress and was directed only after careful consideration of the many problems involving the most economical兵役 for utilization of resources for supply, shelter and training for the entire army within the limit of funds available. It is, therefore, regretted that your suggestion to transfer them to another post cannot receive favorable consideration."

No American Collection Completé Without Tanner, Says Art Critic
In its Christmas issue the Arno AMERICAN published a reproduction of the "Anmuniation," a world-famous painting by Henry O. Tanner the celebrated colored artist who is now in Paris. Three other paintings of the same group, all of them dealing with religious subjects will follow in the Arno at short intervals.

of these paintings are in the Lux-
burg at Paris and in the Pensi-
sylvania Academy of Fine Arts.
Some of the Tanner paintings including "The return of the Holly Women," "The Miraculous Haul of Fishes," and "The Flight Into Egypt," were on exhibition recently in Omaha, Nebraska, under the direction of the Omaha Society of Fine Arts. None of these paintings are as famous as those which will be published in the Argo series. However, Maurice Flosk, white of the Omaha Society, after viewing them, declared: "the places as an emblem American artist is well established. Of course he won recognition in Europe before he was appreciated by his own country. I have traveled extensively and do not hesitate to say that there is no really worth while and representative collection in America that is considered complete unless it has a Tanner picture."

Harvard Professor Creates Sensation With This Statement At Science Association Convention
Cambridge, Mass., Jan. 3.—A new theory of the origins of American Indians which places Negroes or non-Asiatic man so sadly proximal explained in a paper by Professor Roland B. Dixon, white, of Harvard before the American Association for the Advancement of Science in convention here last week.
Dr. Dixon's paper, in which he declared that negro groups which crossed the Bering Straits were among the American Indians' ancestors, caused a great stir in the anthropology section. From his statements negro peoples would appear to have been the first discoverers of America.
can Indian were people 11 white stock related to the so-called Caucasian group according to Dr. Dixon. Turkish tribes and other Mongolians and the black Australians blended in various proportions, formed the different races of American Indians. dians. Many tribes, in the opinion of the speaker, were largely negroid in early times, but underwent transformation by mixing with other tribes, and since the discovery of America, by the infusion of white blood.

BASED ON SKULL MEASUREMENT
The earliest skulls of the Iroquois and some other Indians show strong negro features, continually modified from age to age as the Iroquois extended their power and territory, taking captives from other tribes and absurdly using them to gain power. is based on the minute measurements of tens of thousands of skulls. The different types of man in the old stone age, according to this theory, differed very sharply in the shape of their skulls. The middle type, combining the characteristics of the long heads, and the broad heads, was probably rare in early times and was formed by the blending of sharply different facial features. Dixon. His method was to measure thousands of Indian skulls of the present day and those of years ago in the effort to trace their characteristics to earlier Ashtal and European stock. The formation of the nasal bones played a prominent part in the inquiry.
BOAZ RAISES OBJECTION
Dr. Dixon, who is a scientist of high standing, had barely finished his paper before two noted anthropologists, Professor Frank Boaz, of Columbia University, and Heilbrunn, the United States National Museum at Washington, were on their feet to oppose him, denying that such far-reaching conclusions could be adduced on the basis of skull measurements, though hailing the paper as an important contribution to anthropology.

And Stoppage of Negro
Migration From South
Washington, D. C., January 2.—
Colored people of the country have
had their eyes opened this week to
a movement, to tip in the bud migration of Negro workers from the South to Northern industrial plants, and to supplant those already employed there by foreigners.
The movement is a combine of the farm and manufacturing interests to bring about such relaxation in the immigration restriction law as will relieve the present shortage of common labor.
The House Committee on Immigration will give a hearing next Thursday to a committee of the National Manufacturers' Association, which will propose three major modifications of the present restriction
UNIONS TO FIGHT MOVE
This move will be resisted stubbornly by organized labor on the ground that increased immigration of foreign labor will result in a lowering of wages. Samuel Compers contends that there would be no labor shortage if wages permitting an American standard of living were paid for unskilled labor by industries from which the native born have been driven by allon competition.
The Cabinet is divided on the proposal. Secretary of the Treasury Mellon favors it, while Secretary of Labor Davis has withheld his approval. In his recent message to Congress President Harding, lifting the immigration ban, but proposed instead the establishment of selective examination of intending immigrants abroad.
WOULD-NOT CHANGE QUOTAS
The manufacturers' and farmers' program does not contemplate any change in the quota percentage of the present law which limits immigration to three per cent of the number of foreign born persons of each nationality resident in the United States under the census of 1912. The recommendations, however, are so far-reaching in their impact on the entrance of a considerably larger number of aliens.
The purpose of the recommendation that consideration be given to the emigration of a particular nationality from the United States in fixing immigration quotas is realized when figures relative to Italian immigration and emigration are examined. In the first year of the operation of the 3 per cent quota law, 40,000 Italian immigrants came in, the quota being 42,000. Italians from the United States, causing an actual decrease of 113,000 in the number of Italians in this country. Industries dependent upon Italian labor quickly found themselves confronting a serious labor problem. If the proposed amendment was made in the law the Italian immigration would be increased sufficiently to offset the emigration. During the first year of the ratification of the present 3 per cent restriction law, 355,955 aliens were admissible to the United States, of which 243,953 actually were admitted. Many of the northern Europeans, many of the other quotas, while most of those of southern Europe did. Taking into account the emigration of foreign born from the United States, there was a not grain of male immigrant aliens admitted over male emigrant aliens deported of only 6,518.
During the fiscal year 1920-21, before the passage of the restrictive law, immigrants to the number of 168,000 came into the United States. The average annual immigration 1915 to 1919 immigration was praised from 1919 was 125,000. From technically suspended COLORED WORKERS MIGRATE
The shortage of foreign laborers this year has resulted in thousands of colored men from the South migrating into the Northern industrial areas to fill up the ranks. Whether Congress will be willing to relax immigration restriction is doubtful. Representative Johnson Rep. (Washington), chairman of the House of Representatives has declared himself against letting down the bats. It is expected that the house committee will report a bill which will not provide for any material relaxation and that after the measure reaches the Senate industry and agriculture will renew their plea before the Senate com.

BISHOP'S HOME ROBBED
Wilberforce, O. C., Jan. 4.—Two heavily masked bandits entered the home of Bishop B. F.

IN MEMORIAM
ANDERSON—In loving memory of our dear daughter and sister, Martha Jackson Anderson, who entered into rest six months ago, July 31, 1922.

SECRETARY HOOVER TO SPEAK AT CARNIVAL
U. S. Secretary of Commerce Scheduled to Speak In Interest of Gibbons Institute
The committee in charge of the carnival to be held in Convention Hall, the week of January 8th to 13th, 1923, for the benefit of the building fund of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute, a national school for colored youth, to be located at Ridge, St. Mary's County, Maryland, has been informed Herbert Howe Secretary of Commerce of the United States will be present on Tuesday night to deliver a short address. The committee has been extremely fortunate in securing the services of this distinguished Cabinet member, internationally known able administrator, friend of worthy causes, and national figure. It is expected that the attendance on Tuesday night will be a fitting testimonial to the Secretary for his kindly interest and active support. It is the hope of the Community Committee for each night a prominent in national life to deliver a short address. The Archbishop of Baltimore, His Grace, Michael J. Curley, is to open the Carnival on Monday night.
The Cardinal Gibbons Institute is incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland as an educational institution "for the purpose of providing within the State of Maryland a boarding and day school for the education of all students; and also receive the instruction and practical training in agricultural, industrial, and mechanical pursuits and in such other subjects of instruction as may be determined from time to time by the director." It will have separate departments for boys and for girls. It will offer four full parts of the country who desire a thorough and practical education under Catholic auspices. Non-Catholics will be admitted on equal terms with Catholics, and will not be required to attend the religious instructions for Catholic students. Graduates will be fitted to assume leadership in moral, educational, civic and spiritual communities from which they come.
The management is under a self-perpetuating Board of Trustees with the Arch-bishop of Baltimore, ex officio, as president and chairman. The Board was appointed by the Arch-bishop of Baltimore and

Tuesday night, when Mr. Hoyer is to speak, has been set aside for the non-Catholic organizations of this city. Arrangements are now completed for the attendance in a body of several prominent fraternities. One of the first to signify interest of supporting the Carnival by attending "en musse" was the "Inhabitants Organization." A charity well known for its heart support of any movement they consider to be for the common good. The program for this night will include a play, special music for dancing by the Columbian Orchestra, and the standard amusement features of the Carnival. The Carnival Committee has secured from the management of Suburban Gardens, a local amusement park, features—those which were found to be in greatest favor with their patrons during the summer season. These will be installed in Convention Hall and will undoubtedly be one of the big drawing cards of the Carnival.
Saturday is to be known as Kidzie Day, the hours from 2 to 6 a.m. reserved for the children of the city. One of the special attractions for this afternoon is a Baby Contest, in conjunction with which there will be a baby carriage parade. It is expected that some of the floats will rival the annual baby parade at Asbury Park—the so-called Baby Classic. Tempting prizes will be offered and it is expected that Mrs. M. E. Webster 1431 6th street, New York, with nuxious for contest boots, which are necessary for entry in the Baby Classic of the Carnival. Saturday evening will see the resumption of the regular program of the Carnival, with all the concessions operating full blast, and the dancing, which is to be featured each night of the Carnival, will be cared for by Miller's Community Band.

Marcus Garvey
(For The Associated Press)
Barthold's statue of liberty stands on an island in New York Bay, where it touches to vie with the stars; its background sweeps through the busy flatlands of the New Jersey Commonwealth; its eyes are set on the airborne fortifications of the second greatest urban dislocation of modern times. It is a striking theatric pose, artificially impressive and booking in those so familiar and more deep resonances of social impulse.
It is not a work of Art, and yet it can not be denied that it articulates somehow the mass verbosity of the vulgar preponderance of which it bears. It is hard to imagine (carvey looms big) but not convincingly big. Yet he is distinctively representative. He is sinisterly verbose, theorically endowed and adamantly and impatiently self-centered, and trying to minimize the tremendous impact of the forwardness of the man. He looks ahead if not always up. His elicits I agree, are more sounding than sound. In the light of exiting circumstance, he appears to have a more vagary, misleading and very nearly vicious in its maintenance of a false hope.
But the idea is monumentally significant of what the race will respond actively to if the accent is the same as the accent with the appearances of truth.
Pricking Race Consciousness
I also believe he is one of our present necessities. He is pricking our consciousness to deprive us of the blood. He is now unmade red blood. Action is now unmade.
SNOW HILL

Schofield. * Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Dashield entertained Thursday evening in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Chester Armstrong, of Philadelphia.
PLEASANTVILLE, N. J.
Pleasantville, N. J., Jan. 4.—Rev. Johns, pastor, preached at 11 o'clock service, to a large audience. Mr. Chuse announced a collection of poems, which he parsonage and it is hoped that it can be occupied in the near future. *Meshamtes Eason, of Trontown are convinced, and Elizabeth Brown are convinced, that Mr. Wilson, of Edgewater, entertained Mr. and Mrs. Roger Evans, of New York avenue; Mr. and Mrs. Spencer Demme, of Windsor; Mr. and Mrs. Woolly and family, Mr. and Mrs. J. Woolly, Mr. R. Moody and Mrs. P. Cooper, at dinner on Christmas day. *Mrs. Annie Edmunds has returned from Philadelphia to attend the holidays. *Mr. and Mrs. Herman, of Trontown avenue, were suddenly called to Philadelphia to see their parents, who are very ill.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA., Jan. 4—The Xmas week here was a most enjoyable one. Many dinners were given by the church, and all the churches gave to the Sunday-school toys presents. * As the New Year made its advent every church had its themselves before their altars to pay due homage to him who had kept and protected them through the years. Pauline Southall, Hortense Tonsler, Louise Hiddick, Vivian Juston,
permost in our thought. Yesterday we stood waiting for the Greeks and their gifts with a complacency that was pitifully simple and slavishly ignoble. Today our heart is leaning toward self-help. A distinct gain. May the Lord help us to delay our response of the need for doing until Marous Garvey tapped the rock.
Hindsight would appear to be one of our precious possessions. But we have made a good forward start and it doesn't matter a thinker whataptor who gave us the weather we ever open up that gain which comes to me is often offset by the loss that knocks ominously on the door of the house of my brother. If it is omnious of the evil bestirling in the air, so well it causes his money and not his faith, I am inclined to throw my hat into the atmosphere and let loose a good, loud scream like an怒气. And, if by any chance, it happens to celebrate long and bustily. Marcos Garvey is not my Buddha. Granting him whatever one will of a real possession in sincity of spirit and honesty of desire, it seems to me to be a great thing which is the very first token of the truly great. He appears to have lost sight of the sources of his inspiration. He prepares such inebulation in character that the self of him has blinded his vision and decides him carceres of the presence of the elements of people he is attempting to rule with a hand of frantic imbuement. Achievement is deeper rooted and lives longer than the span of a human life.
Grip Is Loosening
I do not believe that disintegration has touched yet the organic structure of the "Harvey Movement." I believe, however, that Harvey's grip on his organization that which counseled him to the center of the stage are the agencies that are prodding him into the shadows in the far corners beyond the linelight. The rent and the taxes which counseled him to the promised land. They have tasted of the fruits of doing for themselves. The flavor of the fruit is sweet and satisfying and they will not be dragged from the harvey. Harvey—or anyone else for the matter—out of the window should be persist in hobbling the grapes. Actually the world lies almost wholly beyond the tips of anyone's fingers in consonance with this vitally fundamental truth has some chance of keeping himself warm in the tender considerations of his follows. He who persists in doing whatever he does must dust of a dull forgetfulness. Marcus Harvey is young in years, Life for him is ahead, but whether he stands in his tracks or follows the onward bent of his numbers but little else moves, death is but the symbol for birth.

Among the calamity howlers of the present day, are certain vine-
gar-veined cynics who brothel at the mouth declare that woman is
gradually forcing men into the
background; in every activity and
walk of life. We mighty, unusual
make 'taint, but, one thing we do
know; the Oriole Girls' basketball
team is gradually crowding their

hereabouts, in the old cage game. These maidens, won the girl's basketball championship of the State last year. They made their initial of the second set with "Y" hail Saturday night and celebrated the occasion by administering a neat lacing to the Darby Girl's quint of Darby, Pa.
On last Wednesday evening, they encountered the Celeritas damselfish, the reorganized Y. W. quintet and after a thrilling battle that was tied six times, proved themselves the antisix by nosing out the cone that 13-11 birds amputing 400 crowded the Richmond Market Armory to witness the fray. In nutty new uniforms of black bloomers trimmed with crimson (color description not authentic) and white sweaters and tams, the Celeritas were making their first official local appearance of the season, but that they are going to give the city champions a hot argument for similar honors are the season molts into oblivion.
On form the teams, were pretty evenly matched and there was little to choose between them, with one exception, and that was the marksmanship of Miss Theresa White of the Orioles who caged the four field goals that her team made. Miss E. Brown of the Celtitas came in for next honors to Miss White in passing the spheroid into the bottomless aperture from the foul line seven times out of 14.
LOCAL JOCKEY WINNER
The AFRO has received word from S. Jay Hush. 2334 McCallum street, now in Paris, that he rode both Desperé and the autumn Grand Prix races held over the Paris race course.
The Athenians lost their first game on the road last week, when they were defeated by the Oranga, N. J. quintet 11 to 24 at Orange Park. The Athenians lost their first game on the Wissahickon five of Philadelphia, 26 to 20.

Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Jan. L. —I send you the following concerning lynchings for the past year as compiled at Tuskegee Institute in the Department of Records and Research, Monroe N. Work in charge, I find, not including those killed in strikes, riots, etc., that there were 57 persons lynched in 1922. This is 7 less than the number 64 for the year 1921. Thirty of the persons lynched were taken from the lands of the law; 13 from jails, and 17 from officers of the law outside of jails.
I also find that there were 38 instances in which officers of the law prevented lynchings. Fourteen of these instances were in Northern States and 44 were in Southern States. In 54 of the cases the prisoners were removed the guards were augmented or other precautions taken. In the 4 other instances, armed force was used to repel the hide-behind lynchers. In ten instances, convictions carrying politically sentenced were secured against alleged lynchers. The 57 persons lynched in 1922, 61 were Negroes and 56 were whites; 19 or one-third of those put to death and then their bodies burned. The charges against those burned to death were murder, 2; rape, 4. The offenses charged against the whites were murder, 2; fighting, 1; charges not reported, 3. The offenses charged against the Negroes were murder, 9; murderous assault, 1; rape, 14; attempted rape.

FOOTBALL CLASSIC
BIGGEST EVER HELD
$12,285.39 Gate Recipes
Washington, D. E. Jan. 3—The Howard-Lincoln "Football Classic" brought together the largest assembly of colored people ever gathered to witness a collegiate athletic event. The management of the football game this year was under the direction of officials of the Howard-Norton Note, it will be under the supervision of representatives of Lincoln University.
Receipts Excess Over 1920
After deducting the expenses for the football game such as advertising, printing, etc., the residue will be divided on a 60-40 basis. Howard University being host this university, receive sixty per cent of the net revenue of Lincoln University forty per cent. The total receipts of $12,285.33 for the football game this year is $2,533.34 in excess of the receipts from the game played at the league park in Washington, in which the university also managed under the direction of the secretary-treasurer's office of the Howard University. The amount received from the Lincoln-Howard game in 1929 was the largest among which up to that time been realized from a collection of the 1826 receipts were the largest up to that time so those of 1922 set a new high water mark.

A Wistful Girl's Timid Smile
Plaintive beauty, dainty grace and lissome figure stirred the pulse of a rich nobleman whose birchlings stole her away from her blind sister and took her to his midnight fete. A hamsone young aristocrat lost his heart, avenged her with his sword, took her to safety. She met another—a leader of the people. He, too, loved her. The fatal duel in the dust of the gorgeous splendors of the local orgy of angels of the city made muble clamored in the palace gates; the love of the young aristocrat for the country-bred Henriette, and the love she inspired in the heart of Danton, leader of the uprising against the French Monarchy
-These things, each punctuated by a kiss, formed a chain of circumstances that quickened the sedition people into open and armed rebellion—that brought the Fall of the Eastside—the "Great of Reason" when all men were woken—the "Dance of the Carmine mole," when woman led the wild rebellion. Then came the Commune the Reign of Terror—the Guilottine—the downfall of Dutton, leader—the sentence of death—the reprieve—Peace! And so, all because of Love, a King was deposed, a great monarchy fell, a great republic came into being.
"THE BEAT OF A THOUSAND HOQFS"
A thunderbolt of men, horses and dust, as the fearless banton, fiery leader of an outraged people against an outragous monarchy, rides to save the 'honor of France'. Through Paris streets he jumps himself, his horse his heels! A tormented of toosing super Naked swords atop in hands of dare-devils atop plunging steeds! Through scattering populace and hostile hordes to the glistening axe of the gallibuster! Always thrill upon hell!

Movie Rewiew
ROOSEVELT "Stolen Moments"
"Manslaughter" the tone drama of poverty and riches starring Thomas Meighan supported by Leatrice Joy, George Fawcett, Julia Faye and an all-star cast which was the New Year's Day special attraction at the Roosevelt, drew audiences that packed the theatre from the matinee opening until the last show at night. This picture was shown for four days. The management of the Roosevelt calls particular attention to the two fine dramas which will be shown at this house on Friday and Saturday namely, "The Beauty Marker" featuring beautiful Catherine theodore which will fill the day feature, and "The Snow Sail" co-featuring Roy Stewart and Jane Novak which will be shown on Saturday. Roosevelt patrons have another week of treats in store in the program which will be shown next week, beginning with "Stolen Moments" starring the popular Rodolph Valentine which will inaugurate the work and be continued on Tuesday. This picture contrary to some reports that have been circulated, is not a issue of one of Valentine's old pictures but is a new pro-
On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, the big feature will be "orphans of the Storm" the famous screen version of the stage play and novel "The Two Orphans." This picture was made by the well-known David Griffith, and the two orphans are portrayed by the famous Gish Sisters.

STAR
(Vaudeville and Pictures)
The stage attraction in the Star this week is comprised of two first-rate trios, namely, the Wallace Trio featuring Baby Wallace and Jack "Ginger" Wiggins Trio. The Wallace Trio is a big band with a little Wallace who is only four years old, vee sing, dances and holds up her head of the dialogue in grown-up fashion. Papa Raymond wins a big hand for his moanful song numbers rendered as only he can render them while Madam Haze Wiggins, who needs no introduction hereabouts, again demonstrates his mastery of back-dancing while his brother John pushes him for a close second. Helen Wiggins does a little dancing but acts chiefly as an ornament to the work of the men. She makes a great impression. Pictures complete the bill.
ARGONNE (Vaudeville and Pictures)
The stage attraction at the Argonne Theatre which was selected as the New Year's week attraction comprises a four-night vaudeville bill in the persons of Charles Anderson, the singer; Wells and Wells, the clever trapeze artists. Means and Means and "Boll Weevil" in a blackface single.
Anderson by his fine soprano impersonation and yelling as usual proved to be the "clean up" spot on the bill; and had trouble leaving and the final musical duo in the business regard, won a big hand for their skill on the high wires.
Means and Means, man and woman, won a nice hand for their songs dancing and comedy chatter, and "Boll Weevil" male, also won a good hand for his clever work in the same line. A program of select screen dramas and comedies are being shown as an additional holiday attraction, and the management invites special attention to the two big features in this line show, "The Last Days of this week," namely, "The Man from Montana" which will be shown on Friday, and "Another Man's Boots" which will be the Saturday offering.
CAREY "Sisters"
"Through The Back Door" the fine comedy drama starring Mary Pickford, which the management of the 'carsey' selected as the New Year's attraction for the patrons of his popular house, proved to be one of the greatest drawing cards shown, and packed the theater of opening the doors at matinee until the closing hour at night.
Next Monday, the big feature will be a seven-act drama entitled "Sisters" featuring an all-star cast headed by Seema Owens and Matt Moore. "This drama is a seven-act over-duty story based on the ever-growing menace of divorce. Every woman and every man should see this picture whether they are married or single.

The management invites special attention to "Hardon My Nerve" big picture which will be shown on Friday and a big starring "uck Jones," and a big Western "ring Franklin Farrum which will be the Saturday attraction.
LINCOLN (Vaudeville and Pictures)
One of the finest five-cast vaudeville bills ever shown at the Lincoln is the stage attraction at this house this week in the persons of Walter and Virgile, singers and musicians, their specialty. In the latter line being the finest xylophone playing that has ever been heard here, Virgile has a lovely sound voice that shows training, and in addition their net is nicely dressed. They belong on the Big Time.
the next set that made a bid for popularity key between Bradford and Lee in a sister act, and Thomas and Thelma, the latter in a female impersonation that fooled 'em even in the front rows. Both these acts finally left the stage in a riot of applause. Next in popularity from Parker, a fourth of the front rows, Mack, and George Williams formerly of the Whitman Sisters who as a team won a big band, Parker for his familiar eccentric dance and Williams for some nifty boot-shaking to the accompaniment of bone-rattling at which latter he is a master. Hatch and Hatch, man and woman, pulled some cheezes of the same flavor, and some steps that won mild applause. Pictures complete the bill.
REGENT
Henri Bowman Co.
So line was the reception of the Hori Bowman Cotton Blossoms Company at the Regent last week, that the management held them over for the New Year's week stage attraction. And on Monday they packed the room to the doors and night. Leroy White is the chief funaker of the company, and Bowman handles the straight. As an added attraction, Leroy, Gresham in his screening "Ruth Bohan" impersonation, came near running away with the company and Bohan are also an added attraction on the bill and won a fine hand for their singing, dancing and comedy chatter. Other members of the Bowman company besides those already mentioned are: Bonnie Bell Drew, leading woman, James H. Juvenile, Tessie Earlino, Tessie Johnson and Lelia Gooch, Engene Ladrun is musical director of the company. In addition to the stage attraction, some fine screen features are being shown every day, and the management design the stage for Regent patrons (the "Ten Nights in A Bar-Room" a screen version of the famous melodrama of the same title, which will be shown on Friday and Saturday.
DOUGLASS
"The Bandit Man"
The Ladycute Players headed by Andrew Bishop and Cleo Desmond, returned to Baltimore for a week's engagement on New Year's Day and is presenting "The Bandit Man" at the Douglass Theatre this week. The play is a comedydrama, based on the perennial theme of clashes between subjects of that country and Americans. Bishop has the role the American, or "Gringo," uses Mexican call citizens of the United States, and Miss Desmond exacts the role of the woman of the resistance; a role which she projects with real skill, doing some of the most delightful work that she has ever done here.
Mr. Bishop is virile and manly as usual. Sharing honors with the two featured players, is the masterly characterization of J. Lawrence Criner as the bandit. His work in this role was one of the finest bits of genuine acting that has ever been seen at the Doughass, showing that he is well on the way to brilliant things in theatricals.
Other members of the cast whose portrayals were finely presented were Babe Townsend as the American friend of Davidson, who provided most of the comedy, A, D, DeComathiere; Harry Plater, Belle Jackson; Gobble Sieser; Edward Thompson; John Robinson, Timothy Patterson, and William Thornton. The play is in four acts, the settings of which were in keeping with the locale, as was also the costumes. An audience of about 600 witnessed the opening performance Monday evening.

Native city men have been making considerable money in the last few years, and they have taken to champagne, gaudy socks, and week-end spent in company with attractive, if not demure, ladies of color.
Some of the natives are worrying about the threatened moral decline, and it recent issue of "The Geeo takes the native men to task for the "shocking custom of spending weekends at some outstation, with a merciless vampire who can smile like an angel, while neglecting their hawful spouses, whether married by European or native rites."

PILGRIMAGE TO ALTON
One of the big features of the six-day session was the pilgrimage to Alton, IL, 27 miles from here to Boston, MA. Delegates made the trip in a special car and despite the rain were received by the Mayor of the city. During the brief exercises, held in a downwash of rain, high tribute was given to the white abdomen who was lynched in 1837, by a mole of white slave owners for praaching against slaying and condemning slave owners in the city. The monument is a monster 30-foot tall, with a circular base of concrete. Bronze tablets in the shaft tell of the life of the dead slave. The shaft gives a splendid view of the surrounding country.

Detective Dunn Says Afro's Publicity Help Rid Com-
munity of Crooks
Filmmaking artists who in the past years have picked up thousands of victims among our people will find Baltimore an unprofitable field in which to operate in the future, according to Detective Lieutenant Paul P. Dunn, the last few months has put nearly every one of this geometry behind prison bars and made it so warm for the rest that they have shifted their activities.
Another factor in riding the community of these crooks has been the publicity the APEO-AMERICAN has given their activities, according to Detective Dunn. Just like the District, a woman upon whom a little flummery was trying to work the same old lost pocket-book game, and who had read the manner in which this was done in this super jumper, was the victim of the cases registered and held him into the arms of the police. This man, James B. Ellis, Elena street, is now being held for Court. Few people, it is said, realize the extent of the harvest reaped of these cases of the cases reported were never brought into court and there were also numerous cases in which the victims swallowed their losses to avoid publicity connected with court trials. More than a dozen experts in the field of Dunn and his associates and are now serving time. Amounts ranging from $50 to $1,400 were successfully fleeced from men and women in the city.
MOTHER
Finds Babe in Mail-sack
About to be "Mailed"
Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 4—From a crowd of holiday shoppers in the main postoffice came the cries of a colored mother for her lost infant. While the mother was addressing packages she placed in the mail, packages ready to be mailed, she looked for the baby. It had disappeared.
The basket, with its contents, had been picked up by a postoffice employee, and thrown into a mail sack. Cries from the child as the sack was about to be placed in the mail were heard. "Africa has been saved," exclaimed a postal employee while the mother shouted for very joy.
HOT WEATHER KILLS HOGS
Huntsville, Al. Jan. 4—h is estimated that seventy-five per cent of the hogs lost by Alabama farmers is due to the changeable weather conditions. Three Negro planters lost their hogs last over one hundred head due to these conditions. The farmers claim that warm weather seems to have a bad effect on the swine, and having sought to determine the trouble.
A HAPPY NEW YEAR
THE SCHOOL OF SAILOR
"PORO", ST. LOUIS, CONSTANT SOURCE OF WONDER TO TOURISTS
$750,000 Institution I School, Home and Manufacturing Plant in One
St. Louis, Mo., Jan. 4. (Special)—Poro College has been located in its new $750,000 building occupying a half block on Pendleton street for nearly ten years. Today as when it was first opened, it is a constant source of wonder to tourists.
St. Louis was once the site of the World's Exposition. It's colored high school, named for Charles Summer, contains, besides class rooms and executive offices, two gymnasiums and a swimming pool. It is valued at a million dollars. The Y. M. C. A. Pine Street Branch, is not only one of the biggest colored "Y's" in the country with gymnasium, swimming pool, separate boys' department and cafeteria, but it is the meeting place of a dozen or more welfare clubs and has found it necessary to establish up-town branches.
All of these places of interest claim the attention of visitors to St. Louis but they linger longest at Poro College.
"Boor" is an institutional trifamily. Besides housing the big manufacturing plant where hundreds of cartons of toilet articles are made and sold, Boor is a school where beauty culture, including manicuring and chapstick, is taught to "Boor" agents. In addition there is located within the palatial apartments of Mr. and Mrs. Boor, who are chief owners and operators.
EFFICIENCY IS KEYWORD
Efficiency is the keyword among the 150 employees of Poro from the time they go to prayers in the big auditorium, seating 800 persons in it. They do their work uniforms and put on street clothes preparatory to quitting work for the day. During the day two young women are fully occupied as guides, conductors, and pointers. From the main lobby and telephone switchboard then the manufacturing plant, the school rooms, the college dining-room, kitchen, the Machine apartments and guest rooms, the spacious cleanliness, and the quiet courtesy of Poro employees. The employees refer to themselves as the Poro "family", and to their roons. Not only has the telephone switchboard operator a beautifully modulated voice, but also the other 149 men and women workers. Visitors declare they have never heard of Poro and are immobile luch from Poro workers.
A $1,000,000 BUSINESS
St. Louisans say that the Malones are two of the few colored people in the United States who have earned a million dollars in business. They dress in the colors of the Malones, however. They dress inconspicuously and live simply. They often dine with their employees or family, as a 15-year-old does in the United States, and other day when a number of guests were entertained at breakfast. Mr. Malone was seen assisting the waitresses by moving from guest Go to the cage and blocucing just from the cage ovens. What the Pore "family" think of the Malones is best told by "Brother" Edwards, a G. A. R. veteran, a former police officer and the flag of the college every morning and pulling it down at night.
FORGOT THE FLAG
"When this building was put up,"
said Brother Edwards, "I said to
Mrs. Malone, You haven't any fax
up. She said, 'That's right, old
fax.' I said, 'You've put it up for me. I went down
home and set an old flag I had there
THE AFRO-AMERICAN; BALTIMORE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 5, 1923
and put it up. When Saturday come she sent me a check for $16. I nearly fell over with astonishment. Since that time I put the old fug up every morning and take it down at night. When Saturday comes I draw my envelope too, $1 a day, 365 days in the year. When come to come up and sweep it full of milk, Malone saw me. She told me, "Old Soldier, you are here to take care of the flag. I don't want you to hurt yourself trying to use a broom. She won't even let me go out on the now. She says I might fall off and hurt myself."
$10,000 TO AN ORPHANAGE
St. Louis people say the number of "Brother Edwards" the Malone have helped will never be known. Their hobby now is the new colored orphanage recently built and run by the Malone family. They also gave $10,000 to the Y. M. C. A., and thousands to other local institutions.
N. A. A. C. P'S 1922 Report Says Lynchings Have Aroused Whole American Nation To Danger
Continued from Page One
has been accomplished at a total expenditure of some $40,000 in ten issues.
The Anti-Lynching Advertisement
The full and half-page advertisements setting forth the facts about lynching in daily newspapers were placed as follows:
Nov. 23, full p. 92,555
Cleveland Plain Dealer
Nov. 22, 1/2 p. 181,756
Cleveland Plain Dealer
Dec. 4, 1 page. 300,600
The Nation
N. Y. Times Wideweek
30,584
The money spent for this advertising was contributed for the specific purpose by the Anti-Lynching Crusaders the American Public School and the number of individuals. The advertisement was intended to put the essential facts about lynchings before the greatest number of individuals who were accused of not correct some of the false ideas about the causes of lynching. Reached 5,000,000 People. The combined circulation of the publications in which the advertisement appeared was more than 2,000,000. It is estimated that of the 600,000 people were reached by the Advancement Association's advertising. As an instance of the profound impression created by this advertisement, a paragraph from an editorial in the San Francisco Call of December 2, the leading daily of the State of California and one of the most influential newspapers of the Far West:
"The most amazing advertisement ever paid for and printed in any newspaper is now appearing in newspapers of the East. It was a newspaper called *Lady Crusaders* on behalf of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Part of it is reproduced in this column, without being paid for, because the newspaper anything but pity and mercy and justice and tolerance to the American people."
The consensus of opinion is that this advertisement was the greatest single stroke of propaganda ever in behalf of justice to the Negro.
The temporary setback on the Dyer Bill in no way affects the determination of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to conclude the fight on this issue until lynching in American is stamped out.
Defense Of Arkansas Peonage
Vietima
Defense of 12 Arkansas colored peonage victims, first sentenced to death in 1819, in connection with the riots in which 250 Negroes were killed by the Advincentment Association to the United States Supreme Court where the cases will be argued early in 1822. The cases of 6 of the 12 men have gone 'to the Supreme Court after passing the Courts and the men were saved after twice being sentenced to death' and five times having dates for their execution set. In the other 5 cases through action of the Supreme Court twice reversed the verdict of guilty of the Phillips County Circuit Court. After the second reversal the Association's attorneys obtained a change of venue. It was unready for trial. The court was striving to obtain the release of the condemned men under the statute of limitations.
Before the United State Supreme Court, the Association and the monarchist Bar Association, the American Bar Association who is now president of the N. A. A. C. P.; and Schio A. Jones of Little Rock, Arkansas. Besides the 12 colored farmers sentenced to death. 67 others were sentenced to various prison terms from a few years to life imprisonment.
Conclusion
Beyond these concrete achievements the National Association for Colored People has endeavored to out one of its most vital purposes, that of keeping intensely alive the sense of racial vigilance and the conviction that the future depends upon what it is justly entitled to, and a determination to secure it. So long as that spirit is kept alive
THE BISHOP OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH OF THE VIRGINES
Mrs. Lela Walker Wilson, daughter of the late Madam C. J. Walker, is reported to have left New York City for a six months' stay in Reno, Nevada, where she will bring divorce proceedings against Dr. Wiley M. Wilson, physician, with offices at 200 W. 1238th Street. The couple were married June 6, 1919, two weeks after the death of Madam, Walker.
Before leaving, Mrs. Wilson, through her attorney, brought suit to compel her husband to take title to properties at 168-110 W. 138th Street, alleging he agreed to buy them from her before they married.
Dr. Wilson, in his answer, filed by his attorney, Esmond O. Austin, claims he married Mrs. Wilson with the understanding that she would give him the two houses, clear off a $15,000 mortgage and give him $10,000 cash to renovate them suitably for use as a physician's home and office.
He filed a counter suit for the property and $10,000 in cash.

Dr. Budd Says Evidence Pointed To A Tobacco- Spitting State Supervisor or A Normal School Principal
By Dr. A. B. Budl
(The following news note, might have appeared in any of the "weeklies" or "dailies" of one day last winter—But it did not.
Budl.
"The people of Jericho Park and the State of Maryland have been absolutely amazed and almost rendered frantic with fear, because of a daring and sure skill attempt by the State Normal Teachers pay train.
This quiet little village, far from the "madding throng" was pursuing the even tenor of its way, and the students were wild western methods and two desperate men brought back the days of Frank and Jessie James. Some of the farmers have not quit pullering, and some respects it was totally unlike the gay efforts of the Youngers and James' for those rapacious, usually had a trace of chivalry about them and gave back to the women or grawaws they possessed.
Not so in this case—Everything was taken, and sad to relate, it happened that those who suffered most were women. One with a child was a woman, and one helping purchase property—homes in which to live and the other victims the mainstay of support to persons dependent on them. The man never be known who the robbers were. Detectives believe however, that two men were responsible—one white and the other colored. The clues are disappointing but are not enough to have been found staining almost everything at the scene of the hold-up and this user of "cut plug" man who was accustomed to "tearing both ways," for it was clearly evident that he frequently stopped and "reversed" himself. The other bandit must have been disaffected while an infant and hid the manhood and dignity vertebrae cracked in his spinal column, for he seemed to prefer walking on "all-fours" rather than upright on his legs like men.
Amazing as it may seem, suspicion was at one time directed towards a certain State supervisor who had been both Lee and Hurry have complete alibis. Extra. Extra. Extra. Si. Backward local detective advances the startling theory that perhaps after all the second bandit may

The Armory like all other State-owned and State-maintained buildings belongs to all the people of Maryland. If left to their vote, they would not allow any unworthy organization to use their property.
An individual may be paid per cent American," but he is not a 100 per cent free lander if he belongs to a group which has for it the exclusion of Jews, Negroes and Catholics from civil privileges as American citizens.
America is what it is because Negroes have helped, Jews have helped and Catholics have helped to make it. All of them among the first colonists, and as builders of this civilization each is indispensable. Governor Ritchie recognized these things as the basis of his refusal to open the Armory to the Klansmen.
Incidently, we may mention Governor Ritchie is a Democrat. By way of contrast, it is worth noting that Mayor Broening, Republican, granted the Ku Klux official permission to parade thru the city streets.

DOCTOR CROSSLAND
HELPING WAR VETS
Veterans' Bureau Assistant Devotes Timing Colored Men Disables In the World, War
Washington, D. C., Jan. 2, Dr.
J. R. A. Crossland, Technical
Assess. U.S. charge of
U.S. Bureau of Washington,
D. C., left the city on
December 2, on an inspection tour,
which will consume the greater
part of the month of January.
WILL WORK WITH US
On the job will meet just different states, namely, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia Florida, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Missouri and Iowa. In the aforementioned states, Dr. Cross will visit the District and Sub-District land will visit the District and Sub-District land will visit the District and District Managers. After these conferences he will visit institutions where the colored ex-service men are taking vocational training and scrutinize every phase of the training. Veterans are involved in Veterans Bureau. In many instances in which men have not been given sufficient time to get their trade or profession, due to lack of equipment and sometimes to infidelity and prejudice on the part of their assistants in charge of Colored Trainers has been successful, by dint of perseverance, in getting the rehabilitation dates of these men extended to such a time as would be practiced to help them do their respective trades or professions.
Holidays To Be Spent On The Road
Dr. Crossland feels that the service these men have rendered this nation on the battlefields should be extended to help them to overcome to a large degree their physical disabilities by seeing that the training program instituted by the U. S. Veterans Emergency is carried out in Italy. What greater sacrifice could any colored man make than to give his life in traveling through the Southland; oftimes with a weakened physical condition because of the lack of accommodations to the people of his race, and suffering many privations in his efforts to inspect the institutions where coloured service men are in under the U. S. Veterans Bureau.

Y. W. C. A. NOTES
New Year's Day at the Y. W. was the scene of much merriment, many good wishes and extreme cordiality. Quite a number of friends, acquaintances and members took advantage of the open house on this date and partook of its hospitality. Refreshments were served free to every body. The day was well rounded out and typed off by a much patronized oyster supper. The congregational gathering plus pieces of the side and the center table by the Mrs. Dodson and her efficient corps of ladies made New Year's night at the Y. W. a memorable one.
The Christmas spirit was duly felt and appreciated by the residents of the building, who were the recipients of many gifts, well trimmed tree, fruit, nuts, candles and small gifts from the Board of Management.
These persons wishing an interpersonal and spiritual treat may have their wishes gratified by being present on the second Sunday in January to hear Dr. P. O'Connell.
Mrs. W. T. Coleman and committee will entertain the soldiers at Fort McHenry on January 4th with a well-selected program.

KU KLUX IN WALES
Cardiff, Wales, Jan. 2 (Crusader Service)—The Ku Klux Klan has crossed the Atlantic Ocean and has organized a klan here from among American residents and British exponents of Anglo-Saxon unity and world domination by the Anglo-Saxon party. One of the first acts of the local klan was to whip a Chinese found "going" with a white woman. They also warned Negroes and Chinese to leave this city. Most of the Negroes here are natives of Africa and these have all organized to resist the terroristic methods of the klan. Most of the klans were fighting with the Africans in measures for self-defense should Ku Kluxism force the issue.

Again The Boomerang
One of our local dailies seems extremely exercised over the fact that colored men are assisting the dry forces in ferreting out violators of the Prohibition law. This should not be, for in this fact is seen again the eternal and immutable law of compensation. Every one who has given any attention to the subject, knows that prohibition was first adopted in the South, and adopted for the specific purpose of applying it to the Negro.

Of course it was not for a moment believed that the time would ever come when the whites of that section would not be able to get all the liquors they wanted. But it seems that they played right into the hands of the prohibition "fanatics" and the result is being worked out not only in the South but has spread all over the country, and in many states as is the case in Maryland, colored men are being used to force white men to obey the law. Again the boomerang.
The Beginning Of The End
Ever since the redevivus of the Ku Klux Klan with its blatant announcement of war against Negroes, Catholics and Jews, and for 100 per cent Americanism the more influential press of the country and a number of the leading churchmen and others have pronounced its early doom; but it is hardly possible that the most sanguine in this expectation among any of those who deplored its re-birth were prepared for the sudden blow up that has overtaken this un-American organization.
Ever since the redevivus of the Ku Klux Klan with its blatant announcement of war against Negroes, Catholics and Jews, and for 100 per cent Americanism the more influential press of the country and a number of the leading churchmen and others have pronounced its early doom; but it is hardly possible that the most sanguine in this expectation among any of those who deplored its re-birth were prepared for the sudden blow up that has overtaken this un-American organization.
The Klan, says Wizard Clarke, has now decided to abandon its propaganda against the Catholic Church and will admit members of this faith into the fold. The program now, says the chief "sheeter" will be based strictly on white supremacy; not only in America, but to all Caucasian races "throughout the earth" and in order to carry out this plan he is quoted as saying: "We can't afford to antagonize Catholics when we are about to launch our world-wide organization and spread it to all white races, of which so many are Catholics." In other words, the Klan has discovered that in tackling the Catholic Church in its campaign of race hate and religious bigotry, it "bit off more than it could chew."
It has been the consensus of opinion all along that sheets were more plentiful in the Klan's councils than brains, but could anything more strongly emphasize its hopeless mental paucity than this right-about-face? What do they take the Catholic Church for? Do they suppose that after trying to hold this denomination up to shame before the world, its members will now make a mad rush for the sheet pile and fight for a place in the glow of the fiery cross? It is to laugh.
This is not the only amendment that must now be made to the original klonstitution, Wizard Clarke says he is going abroad and will spend many months in foreign lands organizing branches. So, we are not going to have a 100 per cent American organization after all. And thus the campaign of war on aliens must also be abandoned. In its decision to confine its activities now strictly to white supremacy, the screws will be limited to the yellow and black races says the Klizzard. But can we depend on it? In view of its recent turnabout on policy is it not possible that this latest declaration is only tentative? For instance, when the chief, gathers his role of sheets and in the capacity of the Klan's walking delegate alights in Japan for the purpose of organizing the few whites living in the Flowery Kingdom, and finds that the population is overwhelming yellow, will he not also turn "yellow" and amend the klonstitution so as to include the Jans?
And when he crosses over to China, to organize the whites in that unhappy land will not the canary hue again become ascendant and provision be made for the laundrymen? And of course he must needs go to Africa to organize the Boers and expatriated Englishmen, and finding himself suddenly in a land where the black men outnumber the few whites hundreds to one, will he not perforce let down the bars for the Kaffirs, Bushmen and other innumerable gentry of the Dark Continent? And what of the Jew? In his latest manifesto, the Chief seems to have forgotten that this race was on the original program of proscription. But of course when he visits Palestine on his mission of "Klandestiny" he will find himself surrounded by a conglomeration of Jews, Turks and whatnot of so many colors that we expect to hear that he has gathered up his role of sheets and fled to the desert a raving maniac.

Would See God First
I saw a curb-stone preacher on a street in Baltimore soliciting alms for mission work. I also saw an intoxicated man sitting on the curb and a man approached, stated that he was working for God—had been working for 34 years; would the friend please give something. The intoxicated man approached, he looked up, surveyed the preacher, asked how old he was, received the reply, a whistle and replied: "I am 44, so I guess I will see you. You are you will so. I will see you this dime. I carry it to Him myself."

PREACHING AND PRACTICE
(Iincidents of R. D. R. Moton's
Good-Will Tour through Georgia,
related by Lester A. Walton in The
New York World.)
PULPIT FRIENDLY
Kindly expressions by pupit and press would lead one to believe that the forces for good have set about to overcome the forces for evil, fully realizing that to stamp out lynchings and violence in Georgia it is incumbent on the proponents of right and fair play to make the first move.
Obsclete Southern traditions were responsible for incognious situations during the tour, occasionally leaving one with conflicting emotions. For example, the spectacle of a clergyman asking invocation during which the Lord is enraged upon "to bring the races closer together and into a common brotherhood for the promotion of a better understanding," while white and colored people listening with bowed heads are separated on platform and in the audience. Drawing the color line in prayer at a good-will meeting did not seem to save of true Chris, dignity.
The only incident, however, throughout the entire trip to disturb the security of the party's optimistic musings and to temporarily throw the visitors into a state of scionism, was provided by a prominent clergyman whose strong words advocating justice for every man were not consistent with his actions. He reminded one of the cow giving a pail of rich milk and then kicking the mail over.
The high churchman in question officiated as master of ceremonies. He gracefully and gracefully introduced colored and white people participating on the program until he came to the name of a young colored woman who was scheduled to sing a sola. Suddenly his eyes failed him and he found it exceedingly difficult to read her name. Not until time, came to introduce the singer was inquiry made as to it. All the master of ceremonies did was to announce that he could not make out the hieroglyphics. Even when told the young woman's name the proper name of the singer was painfully obvious that he did not possess the moral courage nor the common politeness to call the colored girl himself. Giving the Negro justice by treating him as an interior will never prove officious. Such incidents after all may be regarded as purely academic when the larger aspects of the story are some of the "gravel in the show" to which Dr. Moton referred and which irritate.
Heads and Success
To be eminently successful, a large head, other things being equal, is an advantage, though persons with average or even much success, if their heads, to use a common expression, are "screwed on rightly"; there is, however, more success with a large head than with the size. We may often see a man with a large head doing nothing of importance, the reason being that he may be too indifferent, or not sufficiently attentive, and not sufficient impetus or activity in any group of organs to cause him to strike out in any particular direction; while others with only average heads have developed in some particular part, will manifest uncommon ability, and with diligence and perseverance rise to eminence. To be eminently successful, the whole force of their nature upon the particular thing or object for which they are especially gifted. How essential, then, to know in what direction one's gifted

Heads that succeed in educational, literary, scientific, analytical and artistic pursuits are more generally grown high, with a good development forward of the ears and the middle line from the root of the nose upward and extending over the ears, to the ears fined.

The extent of success even then will depend on the amount of energy, force of character and perseverance and intelligence, and the physical strength and health are great factors in enabling individuals to succeed, and fortunate are they who have good heads combined with physical strength and
Some are apt to think that enterprise in business or the acquisition of wealth and property are only necessary if they may be based. Worldly acquisitions and immediate pecuniary or other personal advantages are often strong inducements to some individuals to put forth efforts to succeed, but many a man is not successful in poverty, and has at last died poor, who has nevertheless, been eminently successful. What the world calls success may result in selfishness and prove the need for moral and didactic sense a failure. Many of our great financiers are moral failures. The successful head is not necessarily the acquiring head; success is only one of the many aspects of the mind; it is the result of perfecting, as far as possible, the individual self. The works and deeds of good men live after them, and are thus monuments of their success. They have achieved—New World World.

"The Black Border A Cullah Stories of the Caroline Coast"
There are book reviewers, and I understand their name is many who read what "the jacket" of the new story has to tell of the inside and then after a cursory glance at the first and last chapters, gave their learned opinion of the author and his work. I have never been guilty of this method, thinking that if a book was worth talking about it was worth reading, but I must plead guilty at not having finished "The Black Border". Hours and hours of patient effort with the diligent has left me still with pages yet to conquer. So I will start by quoting the opinion of John Bennett in the Literary Review of the Evening Post, "Behold of mankind sentimentality, but touched with comprehending pity, marked by a caustic, humorous, but somehow affective irony, the tolerant humor of one who has known the Negro from his birth, dissembling nothing, and without malice, he has drawn them as they are, with Hogarthian fidelity. George Morland's eye and a Teniers-like truth of detail." This is only a little of Mr. Bennett's praise. It splits over into two columns. But he has a sentence that explains it all: "To one who has heard these unnoted from Mr. Gonzales's lips."
Here is the reason for the reviewer's enthusiasm. He has heard these stories told by one who has been a professor at the lab. But to try to read the transcription that Mr. Gonzales gives us, is like trying to read a foreign language that one has never heard spoken. The thing is impossible. The language is deeper, by means of an elaborate glossary, a corruption of English. Now if it were real Gulaht: The Black Border is a collection of stories of impoultions in that section of the country along the coast between George-
GURRENT AND
OTHERWISE
For the Associated Negro Press Prohibition and Ku Klux Klanism were two questions considered by a group of African American invocers last year, the imminity of opinion regarding the undesirableness of the presence of the Klux as an arbiter of our social, political and religious differencethought, dissented in the matter of a unanimous indemnity of the Volstead plan of enforcing the Prohibition provisions of the 18th Amendment. Kluxism is a monochromatic mob spirit and are an expression of the ill-tempered hysteria of the characteristic mob spirit that is of the woof and warp of American life. We do the most of things edictive and destructive. The Ku Klux mob is to be met with the determined resistance of a mole comprised of the elements against whom the virtuous and patriotic onslaughts of the Klux are directive. The Ku Klux mob is soft, silly or selfish? Prohibition and Ku Klux Klanism is the answer. I would be doing the unfair act if I did not include the Negro as full fledged American in the component part—silly or wise—on whatever stands for American as an idea or a gospel. We are 101 per cent American.
It is not for me to say who scored the gravy when the Dyer Bill was thrown into the political waste basket of the hour. However, one can not but watch with more than casual interest the passage at arms that is on between James Welton Johnson and the estimable Perry Howard, the new "Kitchen Cabinet" custodian of the Republican political fortunes of the race. As a letter writer I am disposed to regard custodian Howard as an effigy of political asuteness that has possibly brought itself within the range of as hot a fire as ever came out of the reaches of the pench groves of Georgia. The Johnson brand of lobbying general-ship emerges from the shadows of the congressional woods a little the worse looking from the licking it received at the hands of the Southern Brigadiers Meanwhile the race is trudging along the hard road making progress and saving a little of the money it is earning. It will continue to do so long after "Jim and me" have been gathered home to that place where the good and the other ones go finally.
The Kansas City Call finds reason to THANK GOD FOR THE AVERAGE NEGRO. I am inclined to ask why the "average Negro" is the most educated editorial staff of the Call that they are bringing a nest of horrors about their cars by trying to establish "The only colored family in our block" as little Negro. I am not sure college training never educates people; it only shows them the way to become educated. Coming into the presence of an educated person is a rave for Negroes of a thing signified and not the thing itself. "A fool is a fool whether he has come of a college or lives in an alley. Would it not be better if we thanked God for the Negro with a true heart and sound mind? I think it would be

town and Beafont. 'Here the Gullah Negro lives; and here the writer retails his quite simple happenings. Many of the stories relate to the past. They start, to take the story Beafont, and account in Mr. Gonzales' own charming English of the country side, the Negro cabins with their poorly fenced little gardens and the ball Burry, that is enough known to be dangerous. He walks over fenes and eats up the garden truck, while the black man vainly, at a long distance, peppers his side with small shot. At length, Beafont urches into the meeting the Negroes rush out in terror. One colored girl in a new hoopskirt, but without shoes or stockings, tears pass a young man, who describes her latex as follows: 'I walk into the dialect, and makes his Huggar-Morland-Teniers picture all the more true and less improper.' 'P pass me duh paint, en 'e' bimun trabble so swift ihw junkurukumu un 'zzekly, but 'e' stan'ukukh two owl butagea' 'bretch out owl owl butagea'
There isn't as much old Mass and Missus as usual in these histories, and there is more rough fun. One feels that González is bound by the English himself. His own writing is sufficiently artistic to place him out of the path of the automobile that drops the commercial story at an unnoticed country, rich in swamp and lazy streams, where the cranes fly overhead and the alligators move, sluggishly through the mud. The story is a great alligator story. It should be of value as a record, and also as a store-house for those who wish to reeve. African stories, he told by one who knows the dialect, "this strange blend of African tribal sounds and intonations," to quote again from Bennett, with a touch of airline English." And the intentional not be squamish.
out the country to the absolute necessity for giving their hearty support to the Times. We ought to give it a circulation to you. Brother Fortune:
The difference between the attitudes of Senator Lodge and Senator Underwood is that the Northborough is an amuseur and the other the gentle officer of the Negro to get his constitutional due while the Southerner is frankly contemptuous and brazen enough to openly grove his plains. It is merely a difference in degree, that is all.
But let us be happy. A New Year is upon us. We are growing wiser and I have no hope of being living stronger in our resolutions and braver in our stand for the right and uplifting. May the New Year be the happiest, the fullest in substantial progress, and we have beset human being throughout all the long centuries is my prayer.
A New Lincoln Story
A man said to be the oldest preacher in the world has just retired. He is Hirsch Charles W. Ellis, 105 years old, who lives eight miles north of Ada, Okla., with his son on a small farm. He is a preacher in the Nazarene Church, although blind and a cripple. The story concerns a tree-chopping achievement of Lincoln when President, on a visit to the
"During a hull in the fight," said Ellis, "some of us were assigned to cut down trees for firewood, that Lincoln was with us. I was busy chopping on a tall guan man wearing whiskers came off his coat, including General Smith. I rested my axe a moment and saluted, still not knowing the man in civilian clothes was Lincoln, I faced him and faced man came smiling to me and said: "Would you mind letting me have that, axe for a minute?" I handed over the axe and the tall man got busy, sinking the blade deep into a large tree. I could see that he was an expert, or he made a way through the tree. Then he handed, the axe back, thanked me and remarked that he had not forgotten his old trade after all, and the chopping had relieved his mind.
"When the party turned to go General Smith called me to him. 'Do you know who that man was who borrowed your ase?' I admitted that I did not. 'Well, you will have something to remember then, for he is our President. Abraham Lincoln!'
Braham Lincoln.—New York Times
Credit is given John Wanamaker, this country's greatest shopkeeper, dead at 84, for introducing something like the Seven merchant and customer. It was his store in Philadelphia, which years ago dumbfounded the retail business world by advertising that all purchases could be made for his bargain. This policy of Wanamaker, now general in high-grade merchandising, demonstrated, as always, that fair dealing is good business. It was this and other employment, of that principle which placed him in the rank of progressive merchants.
Snake That Likes Its Hooch
Two hunters from here built a fire in the woods by a fallen tree yesterday. They left for a time and upon returning found a large blacksnake, aroused by the heat had come forth, drunk, of corn liquor and taken possession of it. The hunters fled for their livs.

QUESTIONS
How long shall smoil'ring embers glow
Till the maid wind hath fanned to fame?
How long the filling pool absorb
Before must come the overflow?
Shall darker race forever flee
The/onslaughts of the stronger horde?
Deliver not defensive blow;
Forever hear a suppliant knee?
Will perfidies of good intent,
Prevent the clouds that hover over
From bursting forth in dreaded flood
Engulfing labors so well meant?
Sometimes might's right, right's ever might;
And when aroused, on justing hent,
Non-her God can see or say
Where right may land, when once in flight.

Old Timer Has Some Sad Reflections At "Watch Meetin' "
Tells Afro Reporter This Is Age Of Thought, Action And "Pep"
Old Timor was found by the reporter talking with a group of men about the prospect for 1923.
A
"I see you did not make a New Year resolution to leave alone," he said shrugging to the scribe. The reporter meekly admitted that he had added that he always looked to talk to him.
This seemed to have softened the old fellow's heart, for he began. Wuz down in jail, adding as I said with the big crowd I began to think that many there wouldn't be in church until next New Year. I looked over the folks and they could do much for the race if they decided to cut out jazz and grab the opportunities that are within sight. I then reflected that some of the folks who done so much for the race in Baltimore had passed on to their reward and wuz gain" to take their places, I mean such men as John H. Murphy, Hugh M. Burkett and John
"I see that you were doing some thinking," the reporter interrupted. "Hoy, this is an age of thought and action, and only those who begin to fight all along the line. Fight for that Dyer Bill, against the ill-youth 'Publicians and for the upholding of the race along all lines. We must git hop.' How on earth can generally" the reporter答道.
"I see Browning is押费foufonf for that 'Publican mayoralty nomination, that the fraternity men passed some good resolutions, that Doc Gaines still has his license, that the folks are willing to see it they can run some culled men for the City Council and that Doc Budd is still attun Huffy and his program for Negro edification in Maryland, that futhemo, that start the war right by going to see it Burton has any bargains fo me in his marked-down sale." With that Old Timer followed
Some Baby
The following advertisement appeared in a Western paper: "If George William Brown, who, after sent his poor wife and son to age 25, returned, the aforesaid baby will knock the stuffing out of him."
Expressed Her Sentiment
A Chicago paper tells of a prim-
old lady who listened to a rough-
neck pour forth a stream of pro-
fanity when the street car wouldn't
stop and then went up to him and
said pleasantly, "I thank you."
Glance Before Your Leap
A California woman quit her husband cold 5 minutes after the wedding because she didn't like his looks. No woman would into matrimonial giving the woman at least a 10-minutes survey. Husbands cannot be exchanged at the bargain counter—at least not yet.
Had No Tail Light
Because a Fresno farmer failed to jung a tail light on a calf, a motorist sues him for $225 damages to his car, which complaint says collided with a dog or heifer at night, wrongly, carelessly and negligently allowed to stray and roam upon the road, unaccompanied, and without any lantern, light or anything to warm the property. The motorist must learn to obey traffic rules. In the meantime, what are headlights for?

WHEN JOHNSON LICKED BURNS
In Bout Which Gave His Race First Heavyweight Champion, Got First Chance to Show Skill
GOT SMALL PURSE
Burns Drew Down $30,000
While Johnson Got Only $5,000 for His End
From Police Gazette
The first time in the history of pugilism that the heavyweight crown rested on a fighter of African lineage was when Jack Johnson acquired the title after his defection of Tommy Burns Dec. 26, 1905 at Rushoutte's Bay, Australia.
For fourteen rounds the black pummeled and bounded Burns around ring, and then the pummeled and stopped the masserer on the ground that it was too bravel to be allowed to continue. Hugh McMahot, that referred, then declared Johnson the winner and the champion heavy-
Never in the annals of the squared circle did a man display more courage and gameness than did Burgs, but jack is more courageous and with skill did not been since the days of dim Corbett. Elusive as a wilt-of-the-wisp, he circled around Burgs, shooting in lets, with the rapidity of a fist with terrific rights that would have battered down atm anything human. He cut and clashed Burgs almost to ribbons.
The big black shirt showcased his skimp-ity from start to finish, and had him laughing when the Texan smashed a crashing right upper arm dash on the point of Tommy's jaw, sending the Canadian to the floor for the count of eight. Turns were down again in the second, when the account of his ankle gagging away under him than it was from the elbow of Johnson's blow.
The Battle by Rounds
Round 1—After a few minutes of preliminary sparring: Johnson reached Burns with a sharp upper hand, while McMish counted up to eight. He signalled to his seconds that he was all right, however, and when he arrose, sailed in for Johnsons right for the head, and Tommy sigged backwards nearly across the ing from the impact of the blow. Then, Burns, rushing in for Johnson's chin, and by an excellent display of bossing warded off a return. Johnson, however, managed to put across a stinging right head at the sound of the gang.
Round 2—Jack swung his right and handed hard on Burns' chin as a starter for the second round. The champion's ankle gave way under him and he weaned down to go to close quarters with him and paced his right and left to the face and body. Burns' left eye then began to swell. Jack thus far had the better of the battle, the big black was over the terrific left into Burns' stomach. Tommy was doing little. He was bleeding from the mouth and showed all signs of being tired. Round 3—Burns swung his right to Jack's head and then did some wonderful infighting shopping his way during the round Johnson landed some pretty right to the Kinders.
Round 4—When the men came to the centre of the ring Johnson and the men rolled wildly to one another, each seeming intent on getting the other excited and putting across the money-winning version loudly, and then the fighters ceased talking and began sparring. Jack swung his left to the body and Burns handed his right to Johnson, who rounded his perilous right and then his left to Tommy's topmast. The bell interrupted a tight clench. Round 5—Apparently refreshed from the training, the round briskly, putting his right to Johnson's head and punching the body with both hands, Johnson also scored a few rights to
Snacking Over A Few
Round 6—Jack rushed in and Burns clinched. Breaking loose, however, with one hand, the black swung his right at least a dozen times to the white man's rips. Quickly, swung his right hard over the rips and put a stiff left to the stomach several times. Johnson, however, treated these blows as a joke, laughing at the man's rips. Quickly, swung his right hard over his opponent as he busted Burns into a corner and scored a couple of terrific rights to the stomach. Round 7—Johnson rushed Burns across the ring, dealing out right-handed swipes on the man. Tommy got a left to Jack's jaw and the latter raised a lump over Tommy's right eye in return. At this stage in the game Burns seemed to be losing strength, Johnson was lading repeatedly the spectators around the spectators around the ringside. Although Tommy was working dexterously at infighting, Johnson paced several more terrific rights and rips, dropping him to the floor for a few seconds.
Round 8—Burn's eyes were badly swollen and he was bleeding from the mouth when he emerged his cornea. Burn's blows had little effect on the Texan, for the latter continued his merciless attacks. Round 9—This round contained the first blows. Round 10—Both men seemed tiring. Johnson still used his mits effectively on Burn's head and arm and Burns was doing all his work. His blows, however, locked stem.

STORER'S NEW SLOGAN
Storer College, Harpers Ferry, W. Va., Jan. 3—Storer encouraged by their sweeping victory over the Strong Abosos of Washington, but Burrus was not a strong Al Camers' in preparation for the Athenian game to be played here Jan. 9, 1923. Storer tackles the strong Armstrong High Team of Virginia, but still tour of Virginia she returns home to play Harrisburg A.C. on the 20th and Alpha Phi Alpha on the 27th. The team has been george George Hill and Chuck Woods, formerly of Pittsburgh Scholastics and Holy Cross. Storer desires games with Baltimore, M. C. A., and St. Mary's Fives, greeted. Tommy tried to cross his right, but Jack cleverly avoided him, meanwhile laughing at the champion. Burrus was often chased and perplexed. When the bell rang, Tommy limped to his corner. Round 12—Akain Johnson sailed in and Burrus took a tremendous bus of punishment gamely. His jaw
Round 13—Jack continued to play for the injured eye and the bleeding month of burns which was seventon to receive its natural size and care, being cared upon him, and the gong alone saved the white man from defeat, for he was reeling and groggy at the end of the round. The team came in before the sound of the big gong stopped echoing. The white man warty backed away, but Johnson, following him, dropped, him with a powerful right to the head. The team followed the referee, and Burns remained down until eight seconds had been toll off. When he arose the Negro flow at him like a tiger, and using both hands with every ounce of strength, soot had the champion toterting.
Referee McIntosh then stepped in and declared the light ended, and pointing to Johnson said: "The winner and champion of the first in the first place Burns was greatly outweighed. All the poundage that he could balance off was 1684, while Jack tipped 192 and Burns took 5 feet 7 inches. Burns took 5 feet 7 inches.
Tommy, in a statement after the fight, said: "I did the best I could. I fought hard, but Johnson was too big for me, and his arm could penetrate it and strike a vulnerable point." Johnson, in his remark, said: "I knew I was too good for him long before we met. I have chased him and tried to get a match. I punished him severely, but he took the beating with more gameness than I ever seen displayed in the ring. Although I know I am superior to him, I am not in the world for his courage, even after the long chase he led me."
Small Purse for Johnson
Though Johnson got the honors and the title, Burns got the money. The white man practically made his own terms of agreement with $32,000 of which the defeated man received $30,000 or nearly $8 per cent of the amount hung up. But while the Negro got only $5,000 for the stakes and return transportation and he bet heavily on himself to win. Consequently it is certain that Jack didn't care badly off. financially.
The story of Johnson's career as a sportsman is told when Jess Willard knocked him out at Havana, April 5, 1915, in the twenty-sixth round, is well known by all sporting men. His life was hectic and full of纠缠, and not it was solely his fault is of little importance to the public now.
Suffice it to say, Jack was a good fighter. He had a right that made history to him and made him ever had.
Should you visit the training quarters at Madison Square Garden, New York city, now you could Jack working diligently, trying to get himself into a condition that would allow him to win.

THE GENEROSITY OF GEORGE DIXON
Left Sick Bed To Fight for Charity
(W. H. Raupau, in Philadelphia)
On March 22, 1894, the late George Dixon and Jack McAnfliffe both world’s champions in their respective classes, came to Philadelphia on a bit of missionary work which has never been effaced. They had been no boxing in this city for much of employment, especially in the mid district of Kensington. There was a bread line from early morn until late at night in front of the various charitable organizations. We continued to work with the Fund Bendik, and the professional boxers and wrestlers of the East were asked to give it support.
The late Governor of Pennsylvania, Edwin T. Stuart, was the first person to be asked to be pledged to in order that the show should receive official sanction. He gave his consent with the proviso that the then Captain of Police Robert J. Linden, should sit at the boxing event, and what so much he was meant to be stunned.
Dixon and McAluiffe were the first to volunteer. The former world's fourthweight champion left a sick girl in the Philadelphia committee. He met the Kentucky Yosebid in what was to have been a four-round exhibition. In the second round he knocked out a blinded on a vulnerable spot and Dixon was knocked out, the first time in his career. After he was revived the comedian returned to the arena and another round in an exhibition with Dixon. Yes, made him. If he had dishonored the past a second time he would have never put on another boxing gloves. But the exhibition was way up in my head.
. DIXON REFUSED ASSIS-
TANCE
The next morning we visited Dixon at his hotel and tended him a check to cover all his expenses to and from Boston and for medical attendant work. Looking up straight in the eye he said, "Give it to those poor souls who need food. Let it be my contribution. My bounty, I know, was a disappointment. You can repay me by getting me a match with the money you need. There are several lines, and in each instance Dixon gave him an artistic living. Oh, yes. We forgot to say that the hand of the Superintendent of Police never went up during the show. We were by him that day, and he gave us a show. Promptly the next morning we reported to Mayor Stuart, as it had been our promise, and he assured us everything was all right. It is a faithful history how boxing received a new set of fans. We unbounded for the last twenty-eight years. No politics.
A COLUMN FOR
THE CHILDREN
A Spanking Week? No! No!
From The Chicago News
"National spanking week," recommended at the 18th annual convention of the Big Brothers and Sisters in New York, not with unforeseen opposition on the part of the spankees.
Chicagoans of spanking age took a unanimous stand against this "return to the dark ages of parental correction," also advocating "spanking for parents" as a departure sufficiently novel and logical to merit attention.
Raymond Carvin, a 65-year-old school, tore insurer Mrs. Afford's proposition with merciless logic.
"Spanking is two kinds," he said, "The kind your mom gives you and the kind you are given you. I don't either.
Ethel Marie Scharvin 5 years old, 1443 Hood avenue, was similarly omphatic. "I am not going to be shaken," Christmas."
Another voice against a special week of slipper welding arose at the Froebel kindergarten where two kindergarten teachers would give their opinions freely and candidly. "Are you in favor of national spanking week?" Mary was asked, "I like gum drops," said Mary catching the drift of the conversation. "Do you like spanking?" pursued the questioner. "I goken spanked his morning," said Mary. "I whenever one of us does anything insane spanks both of us."
What Won't Children Think Of
My aunt had finished picking the back and breast of a chicken and had started pickling its legs, when my 2-year-old cousin, who was watching her every evening, "tummin', don't take echickle's pants!"

C. of Durham, Fla., in a one-shift basked battle, 25 to 8. The game, while interesting, was not as thrilling as some that have been seen here between girls' fives, by reason of the fact that while the visitors were exceedingly aggressive, it was plainly apparent that they were not as experienced at the game as the locals, especially in tossing the spheroid into the net. They fought every inch of the way, in guarding and interrupted many attempted set-ups by the locals, but the latter time and again broke through, and circling the leather around the visitors, managed to get it into the hands of a shoer who had her eyes on the
In the latter capacity, Center Thompson of the locals was the bright particular star, tossing the old globule into the bottomless receptacle five times. The Oriole line-up that old outstanding work were Forward White, who shot the next highest number of field goals, three: Forward Springs, who did some fast playing; Guard Camper, and Center Fisher, of the visitors, who did their best work in the latter half, although the first half ended 12-6 in their favor. In this latter half they completely swamped the visitors, holding them to one lane field goal which they added. A fairly large gallery, composed elegantly of contest and showed their pleasure in a manner sufficiently boisterous to evoke a lecture on sportsmanship from Ablefie Director "Duck" Gibson of the High School during the intermission. Preceding the main contest, the team won the "Y" Pirates and the Blue Creeper the former winning 37-21.

Because of the conspicuous part played by New Jersey representatives on the Lincoln team, which was given the day, a testimonial was tendered to them on Friday evening, December 29th, at the home of Dr. George E. Cannon, of Jersey City, by the New Jersey members of the team. The team was especially honored, named "Burtts Brown," of Flemington, who after receiving a forward pass made a run and scored a touchdown, half-back, who made the most spectacular run of the play, and "Deck" McLean, the brilliant little quarter-back who also made one of the touch-downs. Several other members of the major portion of the Alumni of Northern New Jersey were present.

May Use Deaf-Mutes
Paris, Jan. 1—The question as to whether the Ski-Carpenter bout was or was not a frame-up may be cleared up as the result of the latest move of the French Boxing Federation, which according to the news have secured the services of two deaf-mutes who witnessed the bout.
These mutes viewed slow motion pictures of the fight for the purpose of reading the tip movement of Ernesto Deschamps when he went to Sikh's corner. The Inference among those who believes Sikh's statement that he was asked to "Trame" the fight, is that Deschamps corner to representate with him for not quitting as arranged.

*Prison Nees Service*
Pittsburgh's Fitzgerald Fitzgerald hundred basketball fans witnessed an overwhelming defeat of the much heralded Chicago Defender basketball team by the Loenl quintet in a thrilling game at Labor Temple here on Christmas night. The game was 6:19 in favor of Loenl.
The westerners were outplayed in every stage of the game. As Mr. Nunn, of the Pittsburgh Currier, said, "Loenl shows too much class for the visitors." The Chicago lads put up a stiff brand of basketball, but it was too weak to even command the full test of Loenl. ability of the team. "Loenl's竞争力 literally swout the Windy City lads off their feet."

It must be said in all fairness to the visitors that they exhibited a fighting spirit that is very common. The team fought hard all through the game, playing clean basketball all the time.
Thousands of people had to be turned away as the team suffered. The team was filled almost two hours before the time for the game to start. The game had received wide publicity under the direction of Harry G. Washington and co-owner of surrounding towns wanted to witness the first game of Leona's match in the 1923 National Basketball Championship. The line-up:

Good doormats or rugs may be made from coral husks. Select the husks next to the car because they are white and soft. Soak or scald the husks first, then braid them in a common three-strand braid. Bring a husk card into your braid a strand that you bring a braid. The length of the braid depends upon how large you wish the mat to be. Sew the strands together in any shape desired. Two strands of the husks may be dyeed and consequently took much preffer. Keep the husks moist while with them. Mrs. Meyer's Caucerie.

Instead of paying 35 to 50 cents for transfer patterns, a good and economical way of stamping scallops upon linen or channel is by using a spool and penil. Different sized scallops may be had by using different sized spools. L. H. L.

Most people cannot imagine that anything could possibly be made out of a discarded and discolored "once-was" white window shade. I felt the same way when taking ten of my old shades and disposed by the new and shiny ones that had just come that day. The boarding house mistress next door called from across he yard and asked me to give them to her. I asked her what she could do with them. "I soak and wash them thoroughly after removing the wood at either end. Then I then and the make them clean table covers and burnen scarves. They took pretty and outwear any other material usually used for the purpose. Green ones can be used to cover card tables."
Dressing For The Daily Round
Those flashing moments which every woman has till she is a hundred, are not the moments to dress for.
The daily round is the dull thing to be considered, and involves the proper adjustment of one's clothes to one's usual needs and one's usual books. The flatteries of makers' glasses will be viewed with suspicion; and so, above all, should be the scampishness of one's own disposition, which constantly beckons one aside and whispers, "Here, buy this; it's perfectly exquisite and a great bargain." Bevern, never a woman, will say that she must be a serious temptation. Sternly must she hold before her the smartness of line, the suitability of color and material, the propriety of the model she selects for the use to which she intends to put, and never should she be enclosed by the lovely frills. It will not even be that, if the wearing of it is ill-advised, it is a thousand times better dressing to be properly turned out for ordinary occasions, than to be superhumanly ready for extraordinary ones.
It takes hard work, ingenuity and self-confidence to turn out a modish, fashion-plate, but that's what it means to be a really well-pleased woman—Vogue.
We do not all have dress forms to help us with our sewing so here is one way that proved successful for me when a long coat was to be shortened to a three-quarter length. Put the coat on, measure and mark the length of the coat in spread the coat the ironing board with a yardstick from the bottom of the coat to the mark. Continue to measure and mark with crayon all the way around the coat. Cut off the coat at Jkg marked line and then put it on a large hanger and hang it in a doorway on a small nail driven in the top part of the upper casting, where the nail may lie and mount it. Put a cord on the mail to let the hanger hang low enough that you may sit in a chair, turn it around and pin or bastes the hem ready for stitching. Mary J. White.
The Wool Dress
Cold days and wool dresses have come in together and the woman of fashion finds that one or two such dresses are indispensable to her wardrobe.
The wool dress has a variety of simple, unimpressive aspects it can take. For instance, there is the simple, straight line dress of dark material. It can be worn for work, and the girls who wear such a costume are the ones who look neat and fresh at the end of the dress the dress is of a fine fabric with a fine braid on if the girl is ready for the dinner engagement that gives her no time to get home to change. When she slips her coat off in the restaurant or in the theatre afterward she can have a feeling of perfect ease, knowing that she will well as the girl next to the next table.
A dress of loret twill or serge in blue or black can be brightened up with a touch of red, either in embroidery, braid or facing of broadhead or silk. Such touches give a dress an air of festivity that is not too much for the street, and yet is just what is wanted for the indoor setting.
For the girl who cannot have a dress for each hour of the day a wool dress is the best all around frock she can buy. "A wool dress books well any place and any time."
You hear these words repeated often during the winter season. Now you can dress the necessary wool book well over the dresses of wool that give an additional warmth that is welcome when the thermometer goes down toward zero and the snow begins to fall.

No matter, how carefully, sealed it is, jelly, after it has been put away, will stick to it and prevent it to stick to or 4 cloves in the top of it after it gets hard.

WOMEN AS SPENDERS
Do Women Use Money Wisely?
I have proof that women spend money judiciously. I assist in the adjustment department of a big New York store. Altho our department yearly handles thousands of claims the percentage of unreasonable adjustments caused by women repenting of their purchases is small.
It is impossible to balance the purchasing ability of women against that of men because the things women buy are often the style of their clothing for instance, changes constantly. Men have not so much leeway—their chances for dissatisfaction are less.
But women do how to spend money—MARY HOCHESTER.
Depends Whether They Have Any
It is easy to spend money judiciously if you don't have any, men who spend judiciously will know when they have money. I know one like that—she is good and sweet a beautiful but I always feel as if I were in the presence of a statesman. I never shop and I never go with other women when they shop, so I don't know whether, as a sex, they spend wisely. I prefer them to be a little carless. It gives one a delightful feeling of care. But perhaps are many women who spend money judiciously when they have much of it—Clark Kemper.
What Our Baby Said
**Contribution for this little column**
must take their turn. Address, Woman's Editor, AFRIO-AMERICAN.
Beth's mother was to sing a hymn at church. As she got up to sing, Beth said, "I wonder it mamma will sing 'Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes'"—Margaret Hatrem.
The brothers of Lette Ellen, not quite 9 years old, had been schooling her in politeness. Next day she stepped on the cat's tail, and turning said, "Soose me, Tom."—Mrs. R. B. Sandsers.
Little Kais nearly 4. is loved by all who knows her. One day as she set in the king of a neighbor, he remarked, "Lois, I should like to tell you home with me."
Five-year-old Margaret had been playing at the barn. When she came to the house, she said: "I have been setting bens. I set a whole lot of them. I made the nests and put the eggs in them. I made the nests for eggs!" inquired her mother. "Oh," answered Margaret, "I used rocks. Our chickens are Rocks, you know."
A Man's Answer
Being a man, I cannot say what a man's love is worth to a woman, but the worth of a woman's love to a man cannot be computed in dollars and cents. Were it not for my wife's love, I should not be here today.
Several years ago, while home steading in a Western state, my wife fell ill. While caring for her as best I could, I, too, became ill. Then she rose and took care of
then she arose and took a seat. As hour after hour passed, my sufferings increased until I became helpless. Just at dawn she came to my bedside and kissed me tenderly. She was hooded and cloaked for a journey, and so pale! Despite all my feeble protestations, she started thru the snow across the hills to our nearest, but distant neighbor. Six hours later a doctor arrived, and in a half hour I was being rushed to a hospital and later was operated upon. "Just in time" the skilled surgeon said later, "the sickness of pain, mortification had set in and you were fast sinking into that coma which precedes death."
"But how did you ever make it—that awful trip across those hills when you were ill yourself," I asked wife later. "It was God Himself who made it possible," she replied shakily; "my love for you helped me over those endless hills to summon aid. It made me almost oblivious to my own weakness and fatigue." I was when I removed from the hospital to our own cabin, this same love again triumphed, as month by month she fought all obstacles and slowly landed me back on the road that leads to health and efficiency.

MY BROKEN ENGAGEMENT
Din I Do Right?
In my teens I loved a young man dearly, and still do, but my folks disliked him and altho they did not cause him to lose faith in him, but because I was needed at home. I kept putting him off. I pleaded that he wait a few years.
He roamed, God only knows where, for a year or more. I never received his letters; mother never allowed them to get to my hands, if she could help it. The one letter I did receive was from him and his bride-to-be.
His letter told me that as I didn't care for him, this girl he believed did and he thought maybe it would be best for him to marry and settle down.
Her's told me how much she loved him, how he had told her of his love for me from childhood, but that if she cared enough to have him, he would do his best to be a good husband to her, and they were to be married such and a date.
I Did New Warre
Only one who has received such letters can imagine the heartache that goes with them.
I knew bibn well enough to know that I permeated the new words "come here to meet" the new people have come regardless of the other girl. Instead I thought, "If she loves him as I do, she will have to suffer what I am suffering now." I did not write.
He has visited the home town once and called at my place of business one afternoon. We chatted over old friends and neighbors. He finally said that after I hadn't answered any of his letters he thought maybe his better telling me he was interested in that childhood love and make my answer, at least ask him to come home for a visit before taking the step.
At the tempted that after I couldn't tell him I had on the verge of writing, I couldn't have trusted myself for I should have told him I loved him still and I didn't want to spoil the girl's happiness. The sister, Ms. Jaysha.
He promised that afternoon to bring his wife and baby girl to see me—the baby is named for me—but I haven't heard of him since. A year ago his sisted called me over the phone to ask if I knew his whereabouts or anything about him, that he was drifting away from everything good.
I've been blessed with loads of friends and numerous sisters and am able to find them as long as can find—managing a big store, hiring and firing and doing the bookkeeping, but I can't give up my my work because I still love my childhood sweetheart. I'd be true as steel to a good man, but I cannot say "yes" to any of them—my life is elsewhere. My friends don't understand why I won't give up my business and go to keeping house. I am the bunch of youngsters around and they all know it. Naturally they are worrying because I am getting to the real old mid stage.
Should I have Mama Hair?
Should I have married him, despite being needed at home and despite my youth?
Should I have written and said "come home to me," or did I doighly sacrificing myself for her happiness? I could answer these questions; even tho I do love him and very sincerely; even to this day. Some day, when all life's lessons have been learned I too shall know the reason why.—H. P.

MY EMBARRASSING MOMENT
What was yours? THE AFOs pug a dolor each week for the best one received during the week. Address Emberrassment Editor.
When I finished high school my father sent me to West Texas for my health. I was to spend a year on the ranch of my Uncle Harry. Uncle gave me a horse to ride and insisted I get as much sunshine as possible. The cowboys were kind to me and would often let me help with the cattle. They showed no dispo. sition to haze, although they were inordinately fond of a joke, and never knew when to stop tensing.
The second week I was on the ranch Nellie Norquist, a cousin of my Aunt Ellen, came to spend the summer. I thought she was the creature I wanted, and before many days had passed I unpaused to acquaint her with my feelings. Imagine my joy at finding my attention welcome. We agreed to keep our attachment a secret and content ourselves with a moment's chat now and then, which we managed oftener than you might suppose.
One Saturday Mrs. Norquist came over to the ranch to spend a night and day. She was an amiable lady and had an impetuously appointed her jig. I knew it meant lost time for me, she would be with Nellie constantly.
After supper I went out to the side door, to barn to put my pony into the back pasture. When I returned to the house it was very dark. As I reached the steps I saw the door open and Nellie's form silhouetted against the lighted wall within. She came up down the porch and I stood still, letting her walk into my arms. Hold! To bring her close I covered her throat, though and face with kisses. When she body could get her breath she spoke. It the s was Nellie's mother.—E. C.

NEGRO WOMEN WILL FIGHT WITH MOTHERHOOD, SAYS PALESTINE WELLS
Destiny of Race Depends Most of Prolific Motherhood and Perfection of Race
BY PALESTINE WELLS
In her recently published volume of poems, "Bronze," Georgia Douglass Johnson states that "Prejudice against Negroes, the barrier of the color line make the modern Negro mother hesitate to bring children into the world." While I would not for a minute underestimate the off-set that prejudice has on the modern Negro mother, I do not believe that it tends to reduce motherhood, but on the contrary it should increase the determination of the Negro mother to give her children the opportunity to carry on the struggle. Despite the prejudice and injustice there is no mistaking the net that we are making progress. There is certainly no reason why Negro motherhood should bring about the extinguishing of the race as Mrs. Johnson's suggestion would do.
The law of racial progress has always been that where two racial groups fight for existence side by side, the one big factor is motherhood. The final destiny of all races depend on the relation between the birth and death rate. As long as a group of people is increasing numerically it is progressing. This is the never failing measure of racial efficiency.
To say that there is even a thought on the part of the great group of Negro mothers to give up the struggle is an injustice to the wonderful fighting spirit that she not only maintains but transmits to her offspring.
They say that the lion became an ordinary cat eat when it ceased to have to fight the powerful animals of the jungle. The eagle and the domesticated branch from the same family tree, but the eagle is strong and has great power of vision because its existence depends, upon its strength to live on the high mountain peaks. The Negro woman is developing the greatest human instinct type in the world, and strength she must develop to meet the obstacles that confront her. She will not give up the struggle. Certainly the thought of what the Negro child must face is a hostile civilization should give us concern, but that concern should stim-
sensitivity. She cures any disease that
cure you born with, in fact, she can
locate any disease in the human body,
and tell your complaint by your writing to her
when other doctors have failed, then write
her and she will give you full details of your
disease. Madame Jefferson possesses a natural born gift from birth and is one of the greatest licensed preachers of the age. She has a supernatural gift. She can help you to locate and load her people. Her advice on business problems is worth more than you will ever be able to pay. Only business matters will be answered. Send ten cents in stamps for reply. Madame Jefferson has discovered a wonderful hair restorice. It grows hair on bald heads. Agonis

must give to the race the men and women to fight its battles. We must not gripe. For some day with the other color, the third American Neroy's day of fate will strike. When that day comes we must have the men and spirit to demand our place in the sun.
Home Tested Recipes
Send us your favorite recipe for this column, particularly if this is the season for it. Address Cookery Editor, Afro-American.
Baked Fish with Bacon
If you fish at all you will cooked this way. Scale or skin the fish, wash it well, drain and rub it with salt and put it in a roaster. Place thin strips of bacon and lemon both inside, and on top of the fish using a spoon. Cut into pieces of fish, sprinkle with a little pepper and bake it until done, probably an hour.
MRS. C. R. WADE.
Canned Tomato Salad
A light but nutritious salad is made by scalding 1 cup of strained canned tomatoes, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, $\frac{1}{2}$ teaspoon sugar to $\frac{1}{2}$ envelope gelatin moistened in 1-4 cup cold water. Chill the salad in round moulds, so the forms resemble tomatoes topped out of a small celery cup of each several small celery leaves, serve on cres or lettuce leaves and garnish with mayonnaise.
MRS. FRED H. STONE
Delicious Gems
These gems are delicious. Use 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup shortening, 2 eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 teaspoon soda, 1 teaspoon, baking powder, flour enough to make about as stiff as cake batter, 1 cup walnuts, 1 cup steamed raisins. Bake in gem this and ice with caramel ice cream with 3-4 cup brown sugar, 3-4 cup white sugar, cook until thick when dropped off of a spoon. Best the ice being until creamy and then ice the gems.
MRS. ISAAC W. SMITH1
Candied Popcorn
Grown folks as well as kidfriends like this goodie. Put into an aluminum or granite bottle 3 tablespoon butter, 3 tablespoons water, 1 teaspoon white sugar. Boil with just a little sugar. Into this put 3 quarts of nicely popped corn and stir it briskly until it is covered evenly over the corn. Take the kettle from the fire and stir the corn until it is cooled a little and each grain will be crystallized. Be careful not to burn the nuts. Nuts may be treated the same way. HELEN S. EVANS.
Using The Whites Of The Eggs
"I never know what to do with the whites of eggs sometimes not used in baking." I have bread cooks say. Put them aside in a shallow dish until dry, when they will easily powder. I have a condition and find them useful for setting coffee. Dried canned eggs are a factory product, so doubtless these dried egg whites could be moistened and used as fresh eggs. If the need were sufficient.
Pumpkin Pie
2 cups stewed and stirred pumpkin,
2 cups rich milk or cream: 5
cup brown or granulated sugar,
2 eggs, 1 teaspoon ginger, 1 teaspoon
salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
Mix pumpkin with milk, sugar,
bacon fat, salt, cinnamon,
and beat two minutes. Pour into
pie tin, which has been lined with
pastey. (Place in hot oven for
fifteen minutes, then reduce heat
and bake 45 minutes in moderate oven.

Whitney Viney is to be complimented in maintaining the standard of the show, despite changes in cast, and other handicaps that have occurred including his own personal popularity with stage door callers. James Crosby, the old-timer, says that the Deccons, the C. V. K. A. and the Dressing Room Club have just about revolutionized the ideas of the colored performers. He says it was worth what it cost to be on New York just to see the hoped for things come to pass. Manager Jay Smith, and Agent Tressott were frequent caller on the pages while the Show was in New York. Happy Kinnabal was booked to join for the first one-night stand.

XMAS FOR THE KIDDIES
By J. A. Jackson
The Douglass Theater management of New York provided a special children's show on Christmas morning, with suitable decorations including a tree and presents for all the children in the theater.
The same thing was done by Manager Williams Clifford of the Lincoln Theater in Washing-
In Pittsburgh, the Temple Amusement Company, a concept booking concern provided a tree with cents for the children with third and fourth cents of that city, Harry G. Washington had immediate charge of the affair.
Management's Cooperation With Mrs. Mary Church Terrell Boosts Clientele
By J. A. Jackson
The Lincoln Theater, the big $600,000 property of the Crandall interests in Washington, that once threatened to become a white elephant once it had to be put on the road to success.
After several changes of management, J. William Clifford, former head of the Monumental Pictures Corp., was placed in charge, and the policy changed from a variable one to a straight picture business.
The Lincoln Coloniale, an adjunct to the house, has been made the centre of social activities that seem to have acquired the appearance of a city; and it has been a big factor in increasing the patronage of the theater itself.
A practice of heavy publicity; and the active co-operation of the management with Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, chairman of the committee committee has contributed toward attracting a good clientele.
A LINE FROM JOE JONES
BY J. A. Jackson
Joe Jones, business manager of the Hardtack Jackson & Company, contributor to the Chicago Defender, and good 'Demon' writes from Memphis on a special edition of the book, "The Xing session to tell Dodo Green has relayed an offer to Joe to come to New York; but that he is too successful to change any change in this time.
He mentions also that Miss Benbow, and her co-worker have left show after a very brief stay, and that she is spending girls of the show is spending the holidays with her people in Winston-Salem, N. C., while the remainder of the show with new additions will close the old year at the Lincoln Theater in Louisville.
"GO GET IT" LAID UP
BY J. A. Jackson
A letter from Gray and Liston contains the information that they are back in wavendville. They wrote on December 29 from the Globe Theater, Cleveland. Further information contained in the letter is to the effect the "Go Get It" company has closed, and that the management owes this to You. To the effect that the manager of the show is in New York trying to arrange further financing of the attraction, in the meantime the performers have been obliged to shift for themselves. No direct information has come from the principals of the show. Conclusions of dates however verify to some extent, the circumstances mentioned.
Pace Thomas and Pace made a great impression at the Broadway Theater, Indianapolis the week of Dec. 8. The kids of the city are trying to initiate Thomas' dance. Song compliment.
Katie King Peevis, featured singer with the Southern Symphonators in Europe, left the band in London, and is again in New York. It is said that she will resume vandellie as a partner of Kew Dayton, the comedian.

BOASTS OF CLEAN BILL
Manager Of New Cincinnati Theatre Also Hands Players Some Sound Advice
By J. A. Jackson
"Must say my bill this week, while not especially strong is composed of entirely clean acts" so hang up after from manager Lew Henry, of the Lincoln Theater in Cincinnati.
"Johnson and Lee, a very nice team; Crawford and Kitty, hard workers who need some material with a bigger punch; because both are very good singers and dancers; Billy Harris, an excellent dancer who hacks some personality in selling his stuff, that is in convincing the public that you are enjoying your work; were the acts that composed the bill."
Lew then begins to philosophize with the result that the letter contains some real sensible advice to actors who like to make "wise cracks" to the audience, and to fight with the house orchestra, blaming them for the failure of an act's hitting. He further informs us that he is going to decorate the lobby of the new Rococo Theater with 16 by 20 panels of the famous start of the race who have passed on, thus preserving to posterity the traditions of our profession.
ARTISTS HELP TATTLER FUND
Pru L. A. Jackson
The Montgomery Marching Club, a Negro Democratic organization of New York City, headed by J. O. Morton, member of the city Civil Service commission sponsored a midnight show at the Lincoln Theater to provide funds for a trip to the Governor-elect inaugurated office of Governor Martin Eddie Rector and Partner; Guffport and Brown, Treasurer and Layton; Slim Parker; and the orchestra with entertainers form practically every ensembler in thirteen participated. The Lafayette Theater orchestra played for an aisleenger and the orchestra played for the Tattler. The Tattler Xmas fund was greatly augmented by volunteer contributions taken during the show.
Gene Elden and Henry Gray have the show show with the Clint Ten Big Tens. They joined the attraction with twelve people at Numeralis, La.
The Altona, Inc. Tribute devoted as much space to "Follow Me" in their issue of Dec. 23, when that company played in Mistlethorn Theater as well as recorded their partners together in the same column.

SHOW FOLK VICTIMS OF NEW BERN FIRE
SHOW FOLK VICTIMS OF NEW BERN FIRE
Some Lose Entire Ward robe in Holocaust That Swept Colored Section of N. C. Town
By J. A. Jackson
H. A. Mitchell, the bustling theatrical business agent was one of the sufferers in the big fire that swept New Bern, N. C., last month. In a pitifully interesting letter he describes the great losses sustained by the race in a conflagration that practically swept the entire Negro section of the city.
As is usual, the show folks suffered both immediate and indirect damages. Mitchell was ill at the home of Mrs. Manue Green, the mother of Brownie Green a member of the Dad 'James Company. He was convulsive since the wounds he had sustained in the house lent entire contents, save for the clothes on the backs of the people were lost. Dora Nelson, an actress from Baltimore, lost her all in like manner when another house burned a few minutes later. The Globe Theater, the only colored house in the town was completely burned out. The audience engaged for many weeks for engaged acts and thus, besides the immediate loss of the above named, and other losses to be colored hand and orchestra. Mr. Mitchell has been given a "Meal Ticket" job by J. L. Lance at the Columbia Theater in Columbia, N. C. He is unable to report as to the fate of the others named in the act in which he had circumstances as he finds himself.

VARNELL'S REVIEW
Star Theater, Shreveport, La.
Evening show, December 18th.
The Benbow and Cohen Show
was the week's bill here. The or
orchestra was up to the usual high
standard; and the company put
on the hour and ten minutes per
performance that drew them an 85%
score, that could be improved with
a better arrangement of the finale.
Margaret Cohen is the leading
lady, with Harry Brock as principal
comedian, and Simmy Peoples
second comic, Tim Peoples, Annie
Jenkins, Lonise and Micky Ferguson,
and Don Dawley comprise the cast.
The opening chorus got over fair
Brock and peoples did the Bob
Cole Comedy bit ending in a dog
chase that got applauded. Miss
Cohen and the chorus did the
same with a song that Patterson and Barbour were next and they shared things with their dances and rich comedy.
Bob retired to a heavy hand.
Shinic Peoples did a novelty in his song and dance number done while carrying a chair by tooth. He took an oaken, cobble and three bows. He tossed a cobble, Dawley, Brock and Jackson then pulled a dramatic drama during which the Fergusons put over a meat dance. In this same scene Miss Peoples introduced her aerobatic work. The whole show is presented in one act on a full stage. The Hartstock company, on a Christmas circuit, for Xmas week was declined by the management, and a company fitted the date by jumping from Dallas. Information concerning this and a review of the company coming later. Obliged to be brief, due to a call to Houston, Gabriel took on the job in Shreveport by Dec. 28. Wishing readers a happy New Year—Wesley Vernell.

Game on the Bum
**Holds Policeman for Patrol**
When the Southern Patrol wager responded to a call from Office Frank J. Burkhardt, of the Southern District, to come to the corner of Leadenhall and West streets to arrest a man, they found him covered with a gun by Matthew Pierson, 10 W. West street Officer Burkhardt and Pierson had had a fight at the corner and Pierson had taken his gun and was holding him for the patrol. The trouble started when Pierson accused the officer of entering his home, and following an argument the officer arrested him, after which he a fight, when Pierson in some way obtained the officer's gun and held coined until the wager arrived. The officer went to South Baltimore General Hospital for treatment, while Magistrate Potecent Pierson to the House of Correction for six months.
Strange "Social Equality"
Was This
A police officer from the Northwestern station saw Arthur Boddie, 1530 Druid Hill avenue, and John Goggins, white, 1214 Madison avenue, "fraternizing" in a rather loving manner late New Year's eve, and after investigating brought them into the station house. As a result of this curious love-making Boddie was fined $50 and costs and young white student he assessed $25, and a word with "asked" Goggins, "All right, you may," answered the Judge. "I am a student here and I would like to see if I can keep this out of the papers." "I can't help you out along that line; I am not a reporter. Take him back." Boddie fine was paid by the people with whom he worked as butler.
New Suit In Wrong Place
Because he could not explain why he was carrying a brand new suit of clothes under his arms while he was wearing an old worn and ragged one in which to celebrate New Year's night. But Buck Hill this week is using held for investigation charged with larceny. "Judge, you couldn't expect me to change them on the street," said Hill.
Deat. But Celebrating Right On
Being deaf did not stop Arthur Johnson, 1010 McCulloh street, from celebrating the coming in of the New Year just like other people. He couldn't hear the gun, go off himself, but the police did, and as a result, Johnson was up before His Honor with the rest of the bunch "11 and costs," said Magistrate Ranft. When this piece of bad news had been interpreted to Johnson in language which he could understand he asked the Magistrate would he excuse him a few minutes so that he could run up home and get the money.
Will Keep New Year
Resolution In Jail
The one big New Year resolution made by Milton Johnson, 905 Drudid Hill avenue, was that he was not going to have any wife and three in the future. So at 6 a.m., Monday morning he made an unexpected visit to her room and broke a broom stick over her head. Then he went to Northwestern Police Station and told the police that he had found another man in the room and she got the lick meant for him. It de-
veloped that this "other man" was a woman, and when she with Miss Milton, with both the broken broom stick and the broken head, appeared in court his dream of freedom went glimmering. It also developed that the policemen were looking for Mrs Milton on a charge of non-support preferred by his wife and this was his plan to get even.
"Then Days Is Gone Forever"
"Man, didn't you know I would not fall for that after the Arno had put that whole row of film-thammers in the paper and told how people get beat out of money?" said Mrs Ida Parker. 1405 Anderson street, when she let James B. Street, get just far enough along in his film-thammers game to send for the old same old pocket-book game on Mrs. Parks and while she was on to the game from the beginning she let him get almost in sight of the $100 for which he was working when she called to the police. Ellis is being held for the Grand Jury.
A Correction
In the Good Morning Judge column for December 22nd, the name of Mrs. Cora Epps, 1955. Vine street is erroneously placed in the list of those held for larceny. It was Mrs. Epps from whom the crime was stolen. We proved the error very well and gladly make this correction.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 5, 1923
SHOULD INVESTIGATE INSURANCE COMPANIES
"Colored people ought to more largely investigate insurance companies," remarked a white man to a group of colored men the other day.
"They are given policies," he continued, "the terms of which many do not understand, and often lose money through a technical advantage being taken, of them. I know of case where a colored man had paid ahead and when an accident occurred his hook showed him to be six weeks in arrears. One of the men's assistors impaired him to say that his insurance companies gave their foothold among the colored people when there were no colored ones located here.
There the men began to relate experiences in dealing with various companies and what trouble some of them put them to in order to get what was rightfully due them.
"While I was delivering supplies to a certain white insurance company one day," spoke up one of the men, and heard the superintendent advise a new agent to get the Niggers as they good people for the companies. Of course, knowing that some of the white companies played fair within the race, the man parted. The white man himself was an insurance agent at one time, and spoke from personal knowledge.
TIBBS IS STILL MISSING
No Word Yet Of Insurance Collector Who Skipped With Xmas Club Funds
Reported missing for the past six weeks, many people are still expressing anxiety about the whereabouts of Frank Tibbs, insurance man and real estate dealer. According to reports, he collected a few hundred dollars for a Christmas club conducted by a white man at Lexington and Mount streets. When many of the card holders showed up at the place for their money they were told it is said, "The rooms had been made by Tibbs of his collections. A mob surged the place the other night, and several police were needed to keep them quiet. "We want our money," they wailed. Tibbs was formerly one of the leading spirits in the New Essential Building and Long Association, at Lexington and Mount streets. It was taken over by white interests or age ago. Tibbs was also acting as a co-founder of Christmas club in connection with his duties as an agent for the Southern Life Insurance Company.
When approached about Tibas an official of the company said:
"We were forced to put an advertisement in the AFRO-AMERICAN-CAN stating that Tibius was no longer connected with the company so many men had gone the length of time that he was collared on the Christmas cards for us. We have not seen or heard of him for more than a month. We do not expect to lose anything, however, as he was bonded, as are all our agents." (p. 518: N.

Colored Councilmen And the Mayoralty
With a reasonable certainty that Brooming will be a candidate to succeed himself as Mayor, Republican politicians are scanning over the available councilmanic timber in the six districts that the city has been divided into.
The prospect of the race losing representation in the City Council through the new arrangement is giving many voters concern. There are those, however, who take the view that the colored leaders could drive a bargain by which at least one of their representatives from the Republican district will be colored.
Among those now being mentioned are City Councilman W. T. McGuinan, Woman L. Fitzgerald, Charles W. Wesley, ex-owner of Monumental Lodge of Elks: Dr. James A. White, Dr. Ernest Lyon, L. H. Davenport, and William G. Price, grand master of the Good Hones.
The proposal that former Mayor James H. Preston be nominated on a citizens' ticket has evoked much favorable comment among tax-paying colored citizens who are not affiliated with active politics. Preston received many colored votes when he was re-elected Mayor in 1915.

ACCUSED PASTOR OF WOMAN'S DEATH
Relatives Withdraw Charge When Rev. Sweeney Has Them Arrested
Another church conflict that may divide Baltimore flock into two camps began last week when Rev. John C. McSweeney, pastor of Olivet Baptist Church, and members of his congregation appealed officers of the Northwest district to protect him from the wrath of John Good, 1155 Gilmer street. Last week Rev. Mr. Sweeney had Mr. and Mrs. Good hate into court charging them with threats against his life. The charges grew out of the death of Mrs. Sarah Jackson, a widow, a relative of the Goods and who died somewhat suddenly. Mr. and Mrs. Good stated to members of the congregation that Rev. Mr. Sweeney had caused the death of Mrs. Jackson by giving her medicine that they would see to that he would "never preach another sermon in the Olivet Baptist Church.
After hearing all of the evidence on both sides Magistrate Banft dismissed the charges against Good.
Bootleggers Reaped Harvest
The bootleggers got their harvest during the holidays and are now busy in counting the shiekhs gathered in running the blockade against the Volunteer Act. Despite the fact there wares are regarded as poison to the system, or in the recent utterance of a Philadelphia judge, to wilt: "If the alcohol does not get you the fusel oil eventually will," the demand for coffee was general. Bootleggers raised their prices and some of the retailers raised theirs, but frequently this was heard in a grocery store: "Meester, believe me, the prices have gone up, but I'm not charging any more," as she handed some watered stock to a customer. "How's your bootle?" was the query with the answer. "Best in town, frequently heard as the salesman was sold in near-their salubs." "Any old-time stuff?" asked a follow as he showed up $12.
"Finest in town," said the purveyor a he handled over a quart cut stuff labeled as bonded goods. The bootleggers got theirs while the public got the "piesin" and the bad feelings that follow an orgy.
