Lester Walton Sees Actors "Pulled" for Saying Home Is New York
Lester Walton in N. Y. World
While travelling in the South during the spring of last year it was vividly brought to my attention that in some sections it is not necessary for a Negro to commit an unlawful act to get into trouble or unexpectedly find himself in the duchesse of the law. Sins of omission offend the provincial mind as easily as sins of commission.
What keeps a Negro in constant trepidation is that he never knows when he unconsciously is apt to give offense and be put behind the bars, in the hospital) or in the morgue.
TALE OF A TELEGRAM
I was in a Southern city of comparatively large population one evening and desirous of sending a telegraph there. I roamed the suggestion was "here" to the main office of the telegraph company, thereby enabling me to see the town by night.
To make sure I was wending my way in the proper direction I accosted a six-foot police officer, saying: "Pardon me, will you please tell me how far I am from the — Building?" Instead of promptly replying he looked daggers at me. I unfinchingly met his unfriendly gaze, all the while wondering what had incurred his displeasure. After remaining quiet, I time, the blue-coated sphinx blurred out gruffly: "Three blocks down!" I made a hasty exit with a loud "thanks."

DUBOIS FAVORS CAL
CONFERENCE B
Crisis Editor Okeys Kelly
Wide Negro Call
Dean Kelly Miller's plan, for a nation-wide conference of representative men and women is looked upon in part with favor by Dr. W. E. B DuBois, editor of the New York Crisis, and publicity director of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
In a letter to the APO AMERICAN Dr. DuBois declares that the conference should discuss the political constitution only and not the general program for the race as Dean Miller suggested.
Eugene Kinckle Jones, head of the National Urban League in New York, is another who writes the Apo that he favors the Kelly Miller Conference Plan.
POLITICAL ACTION ONLY
Dr. DuBois' letter in full reads:
"In the January Crisis, published December 28, I suggested a congress of our political situation. We do not need one on the general program of the Negro. That has been thoroughly and exhaustively thrashed out so that people know the possible paths' and can. take their stand according to the different organizations who are following these paths.
Solidarity, unanimity, absolute agreement, is not called for in these

Motras, Dec. 14.—India has been under British sway for the last one century and a half, and as Mr. Lloyd George said, 1,500 whites, Britishers resign over 520 million of a subject race.
The distinction between the whites and the coloured is perceptible everywhere you have Jim Crow cars in your land, and we have separate churches and separate cemeteries not separate schools and colleges for Europeans and Indians.
Even the Young Men's Christian Association and the Young Women's Christian Association are not without our similar distinction. In the latter, the girls of the whites and the boys are not allowed to meet in a common hall even to offer their daily prayers to the common Father in Heaven, and in their athletics, tennis, etc., both the races are separated.
India is already a land of a hundred sub-castes, the members of which have no intercourse within nursing. In India, the western Christianity with a hundred denominal differences with race and color distinctions has been introduced.
CHRIST WAS COLORED
The government has adopted repressive measures to put down Gandhism with a high hand, but the more they try to put it down, the more does the propaganda thrive. Slaims are already overcrowded and there is hardly any room there. Even some bodies have gone there. Major John F. Hylan, of New York, has started a fund for the relief of the dependents of the political prisoners in India who have gone to jail for their country's freedom.

SIX SHOT IN "CUT" RIOT
Richard jenkins, Essex Jones, Elliwood Cheiney, Charles Preston and Julius Hainline were wounded with birdshot and sent to the hospital at the House of Correction at Jessup when a hundred white and colored prisoners went on a strike against poor food Tuesday.
Warden Langford used his shotgun when the prisoners refused to order orders and became destructive. Trouble has been brewing since John Pichard, white, sentenced to the "Cul" for murder, was said to have been given special privileges, including trips home to Pocomoke, and was purged before serving his term.

COHEN CONFIRMATION WAITS ON SENATORS
Louisianans Hold Papers Which Prevent Senate Committee from Making Favorable Report
Until Senators Ransdell and Broussard, both Democrats of Louisiana, return to the Senate Committee on Commerce certain papers filed with the Committee, action cannot be taken upon the favorable report upon Walter L. Cohen, for the post of Collector of the Port of New Orleans.
The entire Republican membership of the Committee is reported favorable to the confirmation. The Republican members include Senators: Jones, (Wash.): Nelson, (Minn.): Fernald, (Me.): Calder, (Y.): Leenroot, (Wis.): McNary (O.): Treese, (N.): Willis, (Welsh): DuPont, (Del.)
The vote of the Committee will probably stand nine Republicans for confirmation and six Democrats against.
"Personally Objective"
The most important question is whether the Louisiana Senators will say to the Senate that Mr. Cohen is "personally objectionable" to them. In this event, their opposition will be difficult to overcome. The Senate, it is said, has never confirmed any presidential nominee when a senator of the state concerned, makes such a protest.
A point of personal objection by Georgia senators kept Henry Lincoln Johnson from being confirmed. Opposition to Mr. Cohen is based solely on the fact that he is colored.
LEFT $20,000 ESTATE
Just before his death the Roy John Holmes, pastor of Whatcom M. E. Church, made his will leaving an estate estimated $20,000 to his widow, Mrs. Sarah E. Holmes. The will was proclaimed Tuesday. Dr. Holmes' will was drawn on December 10th. The widow is named executrix without bond, Witnesses were: Carlos C. Jennings, Rev. Beale Elliott and Attorney W. C. McCarthy.

THOUGHT WE HAD TAILS LIKE MONKEYS
Three Foreign White Students Visit Howard Univ., and Find Colored People Same As Other Folk
By Walter L. Smoulding
Washington, D. C., Jan. 23 (Special)
Three white students from European universities, who had heard all kinds of wild tales about American colored people, paid a two-day visit to Howard University this week: ate and slept in student fraternity houses, attended classes and chapel exercises, witnessed an original play written and acted by students, and were then willing to admit that American Negroes have no monkey tails, but are human like other folk.
The white visitors represented European universities, Heidelberg, London, and Czechoslovakia, Russia. A student of Harvard was spokesman and guide and an officer of the Students' Forum, under whose auspices these foreign students were travelling.
After being told by the American that the colored man's field and aspirations were somewhat prescripted by American color prejudice, the English student said:
"It seems postoperative that such thing as this should be. I have discovered, since visiting Howard, that the colored people are just as intellectual as any other people, and I will ask the American white people, when I
BURNED
Ernest Savoy, age 16, 636 Pitcher street, was seriously burned when his clothes were ignited as he poured coal oil into a cooking stone, causing an explosion. Wednesday morning of this week. His mother who endeavored to extinguish the flames, was also burned about the hands.
He was taken to Franklin Square Hospital, where it was found that he sustained first and second degree burns, about the entire body, and remained there in a serious condition.
DIRECTOR PRAISES NEGRO DRY AGENTS
Washington, D. C., Jan. 25 (Special)—There have been but few complaints of misconduct on the part of our colored Federal Prohibition Agents," James E. Jones, acting prohibition commissioner told the AFRO-AMERICAN today.
He said his office had no knowledge of the movement on the part of the white Baltimore newspapers and others to discredit colored dry officers working there.
MIGRANTS SHUN NEW YORK
New York City (Special) Jan. 25. The large, number of colored people who have left the South this winter, numbering, according to estimates, 50,000, have not come to New York. Thomas E. Taylor, executive secretary of the Y. M. C. A. told the AFO-AMERICAN today. This city was formerly regarded as the paradise for our people who were forced to leave the South.

leave here, why it is that you people are not given the rights of other citizens. In the universties of England, all colors can be seen. You people are intelligent and rarely ignorance cannot be a bar. "When I return to England, I will have my people to see just as I have seen."
REFLECTION UPON AMERICA
Now the student from Czechoslovakia speaks:
"In Europe, when we see the description of Negroes in American geography we don't consider it a reflection on the Negro, but a reflection upon America.
"I have found that America only points out equality on paper, but doesn't put it into actual practice. Whenever American slanders the Negro to Europeans, the slander reacts upon America."
NO LABOR LINE IN GERMANY
"The colored man has the same rights in Germany as any other person. I am very much impressed with the intellectual life at Howard. I think the American colored girls are very pretty."
A student asked the German student for a frank statement of the impression which he had of colorese people before coming to Amerie.
"I thought the colored people were just horrible creatures, but I am surprised to find such inhuman beings as I had seen at Howard."
PASTOR LEFT NO WILL
The late Dr. Harvey Johnson died without making a will. Harvey Johnson, Jr., took out administration papers Friday for the estate of his father, giving bond for $4,000. Besides life insurance, the late pastor and friend of the charity at 1823 Drum Hill avenue, and a summer home at Catonsville. His estate will be divided among three children.
Norfolk, Va., Jan. 25. With the new annex January 1st, Norfolk's population included 55,883 colored persons.

Kearns said, however, that D usted to enter the ring against a go out, first catching a bait, or two un
DEMPSEY'S MANAGER ADMITS HARRY WILLS IS DANGEROUS
1 New York, January 24.—"We want to fight Harry Wilms," said Jack Kearns, white manager of Jack Dempsey, white, heavyweight champion prize-fighter, when he arrived here yesterday. "But we think," he continued, "the Dempsey ought to have several warming-up bouts first. "We want Wilms," said Kearns, "Wilms is accepted as the most logical rival for the champion. It is the boxer who promised Dempsey. Wilms wants to box Dempsey. The king wants Dempsey and Wilms to box."
Kearns said, however, that Dempsey should not be asked to enter the ring against a good man like Wilms without first getting a bout or two under his belt, no matter who the victims might be.
"Man O'War and Gray Lag are great horses," he said by way of breaking the ice on the subject. "Suppose one or the other was asked to step out on a track after being in the barn a couple of years to meet some great horse from England, France or Australia. The polite horse test is first plush and so would every horseman in this country. "Isn't that true?
All nodded forwardly and down as doth the dray horse. And Kearns continued:
"We want to fight Wilms above any man in the world. We know that he will draw with the champion and that suits us to the letter. But you can't ask the champion of the world to step in with so dangerous a man without first being allowed to get two or three fights under his belt. The Wilms bout is a summer bout first of three, the world carry should be possible later. Why then should Dempsey be asked to wait until then without having a chance to box himself into condition. Physically he's perfect now, but a man needs work in the ring for a fellow Wilms.

PERRY'S
In a raid on Perry's Inn, 1335 Pennsylvania avenue, early Thursday morning, six men and two women were taken into custody, and Joseph Perry, white, proprietor of the place, was arrested and held under 3500 hand charged with keeping false hotel registry and running a disorderly house. James Davis, 20, 1611 E. Monument street, and Gladstone Monument, 10, 629 N. Road street, are being held as witnesses for resisting as man and wife and occupying a room at the hotel, while James Cumberford William Drake, Clifton Drake, Louis Dandridge, members of the Drake vanderville team, playing at the Douglass Theatre, and Miss Susie Brown, a waitress at the hotel were all fired $5 and costs each for disturbing the peace. The raid was staged about 2:30 a.m., when Lieut. Wilhelm and other entered the place after hearing and talking. On the second floor of the place they entered the room where four of the men were engaged in a poker game. Six dollars, a sixpence, piece and a Chinese coin were confiscated from the table. In another room they found Miss Mohamid and in what police called a one-piece slip in, and with her James Davis dressing to go out for a sandwich. Davis stated that he is a married man and lives at 1611 E. Monument street. On the register were put down as man and wife.
The lines of all of the members of the Drake show were paid by Mr. Henry Drake, and they were released.
SUICIDE
Edward Jackson, age 39, 2101 Division street, was found lying on a couch in the third story room which he occupies chapeling a pistol in his right hand and with a gaming wound in the right temple about 10 o'clock Monday night of this week. He lived alone and had been dead several hours.
The discovery of the body was made by Mrs. Minnie Bright, 533 Mechench street, a sister of the dead man when she went to mute an uncustomary child. She was then ill for some time and statements made on different occasions made her certain that he had taken his own life because of ill health.

"Best Investment We Can Make In South Is Ticket To Get Out"
Birmingham, Ala., Jan. 20 (Reporter, News Service)—Travelling on the railroads much and especially on the trunk lines out of the South, such as the Frisco Lines, the Illinois Central and the Louisville and Nashville railroads. I knew that there was a gradual stream of Negroes flowing North, but reports of church membership in the different sections of the State of Georgia showed an alarming loss of members. This was so pronounced that at three annual conferences of the C.M.E. Church Bishop E.S. Williams the presiding bishop, delivered strong addresses cautioning our people to sacrifice their good homes and property and their hold upon surpositions in industry for an uncertainty.
4,000 MEMBERS LOST
As the writer sat and listened to preacher after preacher read his report to the annual conference, calling out so and so many "withdrawal to go North," for there was secrecy a report that did not state more or less gone North, the writer became curious to know just how telling the sum total going out of the C. M. E. Church in these conferences would show the presiding bishop who held the official reports, said publicly, that between three and four thousand had moved North out of these conferences since their last annual session.
RURAL CHURCHES
HARD HIT
In most instances the rural churches showed the greater loss Not that a larger percentage had zone North from the rural districts into the cities as well as to the North, and while the city churches showed considerable loss there was some compensation from the rural districts.
Among the rural churches in all three of these conferences at LaGrange, Millidgeville and Atlanta the Bishop and presiding elders had to combine several churches to make a membership large enough to support a pastor. Some of the other well-organized churches with strong membership supporting a pastor well, have been so reduced in Negro population that the churches are practically missions unable to support a pastor.
Boston, Georgia, a small town on the Ellibert Airline Railroad, a branch of the Southern from Tecoson, Ga., to Ellibert, Ga., has a prosperous little town with a large and prosperous rural community. Tex. J. D. Hudson, the master of the C. M. E. Church at this point for five years until December 19, appointed presiding elder of the Atlanta District, gives the following report: "In one day and to go on the same train this fall colored people bought tickets to the amount of more than 140. We asked why this expenditure of so much money to leave home.
The repriar came, "We have come to the conclusion that the best investment we can make in the South is in a railroad ticket to get out."
The writer was anxious to know if other denominations were similarly affected by the Negro exodus. Bishop J. S. Flipper, of the A. M. E. Church, presiding Bishop of all the A. M. E. annual conference in Georgia, visited the M. E. B. Conference in Atlanta, December 14th, and privately told us and publicly in an address that the same alarming conditions confronted the A. M. E.
We visited annual conferences and the tale of the stream of Negroes going North is almost uniform. There is a larger movement from Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi than from the other States as we have been able to observe.
BEST PEOPLE LEAVING
Observation and testimony bear
witness that those going and those
planning to go are not the "rift riff"
—not the thriftless, not the most
ignorant, but a large percentage of
prosperous, industrious and intelligent
Negro citizens.
SCHOOL GIRLS ARRESTED AS COPS ENFORCE CURFEW ORDER
Many Boys and Girls Under Eighteen Taken When Capt. Lastner's Men Raid Tessier St. Jazz House
47 REVELLERS LOADED INTO 6 PATROL WAGONS
"Jazz House" Mistress Warned to Close, Thot She Had Protection
Forty-seven persons—twenty-one young women and twenty-six men—who attended an all-night party at the "Jazz House," 810 Tessier street Monday night, under the belief that it was "raid proof," found out differently shortly after one a. m. Tuesday morning.
Six patrol wagons backed up to the house, and the dancers, musicians, and waiters were taken to the Northwestern Police Station.
Police estimated about twenty people were arrested on the police department around the hour before the siren. Included in the police department were young men and women who told the police that they were still in school. The proprietor of the place, Mrs. Mattie Fisley, told Magistrate Trust Tuesday morning that she had paid a night to Tobee Speaker for protection and stood she would not be molested. Speaker testified he received the money for acting as "floor manager." Testimony of other revelers showed that they believed the place to have "police protection." All were given $10 and costs on the charge of disorder conduct except Miss Edna Robinson, $10 Tessier street, and Miss Mardella Bough, 907 Bolton street, who were charged with resisting arrest. Mrs. Fisley was also given $500 for the loophole and disobeyed total police ones amounted to $475. Prohibition officers found sufficient evidence to prefer charges of violating the Volunteer law against several persons.
DANCE PERMITS SPECIFIC
The police regulations concerning public dances are specific. Permits for dances to which admissions are charged call for prompt closing at noon. Other police permits are allowed to run at later hours. Such regulations police declare, do not apply to private dances to which no admission is charged.

Recommended by an Ohio Farmer
J.
W. J. Temple, 292 W. Central Ave., Delaware, Ohio, for five long years could not eat a meal without distress. His trouble was catarrh off the stomach and bowels brought on by exposure. Mr. Temple says: "A druggist recommended Peru-na. I took five bottles, and am a well man. While formerly I could not do a day's work. I now never become fatigued. Peru-na is the best medicine and tonic in the world. It is especially fine for catarrh and colds."
The value of any medicine is determined by results.
Peru-na has been accumulating results for over fifty years.

The stage interaction at the Star this week is Jennie Sparrow and his Mid-City Follies Company, an aggregation of some twelve people who are experienced in the art of stage entertainment. The funmaking is headed by Sparrow, who is a clever and experienced laugh producer, assisted by Gas Simmons, whose talent in this work is known both among under cooks.
The feminine contiguit is headed by Emma Simmons, a very capable actress and "blues" singer. During the progress of the skit, which is being presented under the title of "The Employment Bureau," a number of song numbers and dances are presented, the outstanding of which is a dot by Eugene Thomas and James Carroll.
The latter who has a very good tenor voice is also heard to advantage in several solo numbers. Other women do good work in the song and dance line by George Williams, Lester Dishan, Emma Dennis, Frita Scott, Margaret Johnson, and Evangeline Brown. Peterson completes the bill.

Or to be more specific, Tim Moore is the reason. Each person of this exceptionally skilled funmaker to the local boards asks the question in our minds why some big client manager doesn't grab him. He is in the very neat rank of the most original and sociated natural born comedian in the business, and he is the most assertive man in the business that he wouldn't do or say anything on the stage that he wouldn't want his mother or his sister to hear.

ACIDS IN STOMACH CAUSE INDIGESTION
Create Gas, Sourness and Palu How To Treat
Medical authorities state that nearly nine-tenth of the cases of stomach trouble, indigestion, sourpress, burning, gas, bloating, musculus, etc. are due to an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach and not as some believe to a lack of digestive juices. The delicate stomach lining is irritated, digestion is delayed and food sources, causing the disagreeable symptoms which every stomach sufferer knows so well.
Artificial digestents are not needed in such cases and may do real harm. Try laying inside all digestive aids and instead get from any digestant a few ounces of Elsurated Magnae and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right out of cating. This sweeps the stomach, prevents the formation of excess fat, and there is no sourness, gas or pain. Elsurate Magnaea (in powder or tablet form—never liquid or runk) is harmless to the stomach, inspective to take and is the most efficient form of magnesia for stomach purposes. It is used by thousands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigestion—Adv.

DePaul has these acts met with a fine recital by the big audiences on Monday, every one receiving encores, but the sister act of Gross and Dorssey won the march in both in songs and patter. The gross has few equals in the field of feminine funnaking. Her humor is original, sensible and cinnamon, and presented in a manner that shows experience, while her partner handles the soubracte type with skill. Neither will ever drive Galli Carel out of the operate stage to voice, but they "get" their songs *our* creations. Bacchus has a nice tenor voice, dresses well and presents his songs in easy grace that shows training "Johnson" in a good hand for the monologue and topical songs, and the Harmony Pond and then chipping for more at the finish of their song number.

Drake is at his host in a role of this kind and his splendid feminism taken hept the audience literally shrieking with laughter. Miss Walker makes a stitty and band some wife, worth the jealousy of any husband, while the lovely who possesses real ability as a character press puts over her work well.

COOPER—in loving memory of our dear mother, Helen B. Cooper, who departed his life January 24, 1905. Rest in peace.
More and more each day we miss you. Friends may think the wound is healed. But they little know the sorrow. That lies within our hearts concealed.
Mourn her not, she's safely anchored. Angels led her all the way; Rich in mercy Jesus called her,
HIGH—Joseph T. High, departed this life January 22, 1920. Gone, but not forgotten.
Hark! A voice divides the 'sky,' Happy are the faithful dead; In the Lord who sweetly die. They from all their tools are freed. Then the Spirit birth declared, Bless, unutterably blest, Jesus is their great reward; Jesus is their endless rest.
By wife, MARIE HIGH.

DOUBLE STRENGTH

Will Give $5,000 for Any
Case that Cannot Be
Benefited
Dr. Hergenberger, well-known specialist on female diseases, 756 W. North avenue, gave the following statement concerning Herbs of Life (double Strength): "Herbs of life has puzzled medical scientists the world over in regards to its curative power. When it comes to cleaning the system and making one feel like new, Herbs of Life is readily on the job. That is why nothing on earth can keep it out of the hands of the people. It is not only the most talked of medical remedies, but it in any case is the best and most efficient. Although prominent officials and leaders throughout the American continent have embraced Herbs of Life, its greatest prestige is firmly based on the magnified embodiment of the masses of people. I have tried Herbs of life in thousands of cases and know just what it was to do in many things. In addition to its healing power, I never used a drug that gave better results than Herbs of Life, $5,000 cash is waiting for any case that cannot be benefited."

Weeks Remain for Boys and Girls To Get In Their Frederick Douglass Stories
FEBRUARY 10 LAST DAY
None To Be Received After Date To Give Judges Chance To Pick Winners
Just two weeks from now on February 10, at midnight, the Frederick Douglass Story Contest will close. No more stories will be received after that time.
Just two weeks from now on February 10, at midnight, the Frederick Douglass Story Contest, will close. No more stories will be received after that time. The date is set for the 10th so that the judges will be able to go over all the stories, pick out the 300 winners and get their medals to them in time for Fred. Douglass birthday on February 14th.
PHOTOS ARRIVE
Black and white photos of the Arno's medals arrived last week in time to insert them in the paper. Because it is only black and white, the photographs can give but a faint idea of the rich bronze color of the new medals, of how they look on a book or on a girl's neck or on a boy's watch-charm. These medals will be history-making, in that they represent Frederick Douglas in bronze for the first time. There never have been anything written them and the happy stories written them and the funny stories and win themselves a medal, will say as much when the costly gift repossens finally in their hands on Douglas's day.
STORIES COMING IN
Batches of stories began coming in early last week to the Frederick Doughs Editor, and day by day in every mail, the Doughs letters are
increasing. Some of the boys and girls are forgetting that the stories they read words or less, and that they must only write on one side of the paper only. The books may write on both sides, or with no need, or with no

STORY CONTENT
TOOK TWO WITH THEIR TEACHER.
In another column is listed List of Douglass books by the Pratt Institute books and girls who are far away from a library need only to ask some older person about the last time they saw Frederick Douglass and write a little story about that. The more original a story is the better we like it.
One man who wrote a story for the contest is T. J. Calloway, of Glendale, Md. Mr. Calloway made the last trip South with Fred. Douglass when he spoke at the Tuskegee Commencement. Incidentally, Mr. Calloway arranged six lectures for Mr. Douglass on the way back, and while at Tuskegee married one of the fair girls who was teach-
at Mr. Calloway made this trip at the request of Booker T. Washington, who thought Mr. Doulgay too old to travel South alone. Before they arrived in Knoxville, Tenn., where Doulgay was to lecture, the local white paper created a sensation by announcing that Frederick Doulgay, the great colored orator with a white wife, was coming to preach intermarriage of the races to Knoxville colored folk. Mr. Doulgay reached Knoxville, the paper was shown him, and some colored folk advised him not to make the address for fear he would be molested. Mr. Calloway declares when the speakers finished, Mr. Doulgay threw his shoulders and shook his grey head, saying, "I have been through all kinds of mob violence in my younger days, battling for freedom. I do not propose to meet and run away in my house. I will be at the theatre on scheduled time, and if there is anybody there, I will speak to them, exactly what I have prepared to say without any change."
RAINED "PITCHFORKS"
It rained "pitchforks", Mr. Calleja said, but there a fair audience of both colored and white people were present and nothing unusual happened. Fact is, a large part of East Tennessee was settled by "Northern Indians" favored the Civil War.
Union masters making this trip Tuskegee paid Mr. Douglass $100 and expenses from Washington to Alabama and return. Each of the six towns where Mr. Douglass spoke also paid him $150 plus carriage and expenses. Out of the whole money, Mr. Douglass cleared over $1,000, a handsome sum for a few weeks' work in those days.

The whereabouts of Frank W. Tibbs, former insurance man and business speculator, is still puzzling many Baltimoreans.
He disappeared a month ago following reports that he had failed to return in money collected by him for a Christmas Savings Fund. Friends claim that he was in bad straits financially before he left. They assert that they have not heard from him.

Roy S. Bond, criminal and divorce lawyer, is an accommodating soul, but he nearly had his faith in humanity shattered when he thought Miss Mattie Lee would cause him to make good collateral he had furnished for her. It appears that Mattie had been living with James Cunningham, but they had fallen out. James wanted some clothing back and went to Justice Ranft and had the woman summoned. She engaged Mr. Bond to defend her, and he guaranteed her appearance with the things. She

Jury Finds He Killed His Team Friend In Self-Defense
Dead Man's Wife Among Those Whose Testimony Favored Accused
Richard Noble, 1102 E. Madison Street, tried in Part II of the Criminal Court on Monday for killing Charles Brown on the night of November 20, 1922, was found not guilty by a jury after a few minutes deliberation. He plead self-defense and was completely exonerated by the testimony, even the testimony of the wife of the dead man, Joseph Brown. The killing for which Noble was tried took place about 3:30 on the night of November 20, 1922. The testimony showed that Brown met Noble on the street and they both went to the Brown home. After asking Noble to take a seat in the front room, Brown went into the kitchen and fifteen minutes later returned with rifle in his hand holding a lunge for Noble staring at the same time with an oath, "I am going to kill you."
Noble dodged the thrust and while being clashed about the room turned on his antagonist and fired. The wound proved fatal and Noble went to the Northwestern Police Station and surrendered. All of the witnesses that no words passed between them from the time they moved the house in friendly manner until the fatal incident. Mrs. Brown stated that she was much surprised as the others when her husband appeared with the knife taken from the kitchen table. She tried to hold him, but her efforts proved tenuous. She had never known the man before his coming to the home with her husband. Mrs. Brown was a bride of less than one in a thousand her husband was killed. "The evidence indicated that light was precipitated by whiskey which must have rendered Brown terminally insane.

COP DRUNK; ARRESTED
Resenting the behavior of Patrolman David Spillner in arresting Benj Parker, 964 Harden street, and Roba Casswell, 924 Leadenhall street, who were lightning, a threatening crowd soon collected at a grocery store at Peach alley near Hamburg street. Spillner was taken to the police station, where restrained by spectators. He was arrested and stripped of his equipment pending trial by Police Commissioner Gaither.
White Salesman Surprised to Find Local Hotels Discriminating Against Colored People
M. Marcellus Dorsey, well-known printer, is of the opinion that more wide-spread business enterprises conducted by colored people will aid in solving much of the so-called race question. Said a widely-known Western firm sometimes, notifying me its representative would be in Baltimore and would I meet him at one of the large hotels here for whites. I replied in the negative, but stating my willingness to meet him at my place of business.

We Beg Your Pardon
We wish to earnestly beg the pardon of Miss Lillian Simms, 22 N.
Spring street. Miss Simms walked up to the Court reporter for this paper one day last week, and with seeming duggers four$ gleaming from her eyes asked: "Are you the Apre reporter?" We replied, scouting trouble and looking anxiously about to see how near a policeman was.
"Well, why did you leave my name out of the paper last week? I was arrested for beating a girl and you didn't say a thing about it.
"I certainly beg your pardon, Miss Simms," the reporter replied with great relief. "I shall certainly see that the issue is in the correct issue." So here it is.
"Man Dance" Brings Results
The problem as to why Walter Boardley, 229 Arch street, wanted to dance with his friend, Henry Payne, 616 Carlton avenue, at a little party Sunday afternoon when there were pretty girls present trying to dance with the Police Station Monday morning when Magistrate Runft committed him to court under $500 bail for subtraction 27 from Payne's pocket during the dance.
According to the testimony of Miss Mamie Williams, 506 Striker street, who said she had to smash like a wall flower while Boardley wrested real houses with Payne, and saw him put his hand down into the latter's pocket as he was lost in the trance of the light fantastic.
Mrs. Jessie Green, also a sighted guest at the party, registered her wounded pride at having Payne do the he-vampire stunt while she was there dressed up, by adding her testimony against Boardley. Boardley stood helpless against this onslaught and will have to arrange bail for Boardley before he does the shimmy again.
**Gets "Sprouts" Out of a Bottle**
James Barney, 1012 N. Carrollton avenue, told the Magistrate Monday morning that his wife gave him some sprouts and that these sprouts made him so sick that they got into an argument a d he "kinder shaped her."
"Judge, then sprouts what he's talking about came out of a bottle," badly replied Mrs. Barney. "I gave him some knocked me so flat that I did not know at first what hit me."
Mrs. Barney also stated that her better half came home full of moonshine and raised Sum Hill in general. And when she called him a few minutes he set in to beat her.
The happiest looking girl in Police Court Monday morning was Miss
ter, the representative asked, "Mr. Dorsey, what was your reason for refusing to see me at the hotel?" "Hotels here do not want colored people in them," I replied. "I don't want them in the town," said the salesman. As a salesman, I would rather meet a business prospect in a hotel, have a talk with him and probably clinch a deal. At a man's place of business, a man's mind would most likely be engrossed with other things and the sale would most likely be lost. "I see in that," concluded Mr. Dorsey, "that the more and more we get into large business, that the competition among white salesmen will make them see the necessity in only inviting us in to their business against. In other words, business is a weapon for lessening prejudice in the chase for trade."

Jewish Rabbi says Is a God-send Medicine
Had Never Taken a Drop of Patent Medicine, But Has Taken 12 Bottles of Double Strength Herbs of Life
While in East Baltimore last Monday, the writer learned through some Jewish merchants that the distinguished Rabbi Sharzerzm had experienced a remarkable cure by using Double Strength Herbs of Life. When seen at a Synagogue by the writer Rabbi Sharzerzm made the following statement: "Herbs of Life is a God-send medicine. I was taken with a severe cold about 14 weeks ago, which seemed to have wrecked my whole system. My druggist persuaded me to try a bottle, and the results were so wonderful. I decided to continue using it. In my 85 years of life, I never took an oral medicine but I am now on my 12th bottle of Herbs of Life. It can't be beaten."

The city passed resolutions condemning the property for public parks, etc. Negroes had to go to court to save their homes. New Bern, N. C. is passing thru a similar situation. Whites are attempting to get possession of the colored section recently destroyed by fire and turn it into a cemetery and park for themselves. The ordinary white man in Dixie, individually and collectively, has no sense of justice, and fairness except as it affects other whites.

When there are enough jobs to go round, when every man can find the kind of work for which he is fitted, and when the wages are high enough to enable the worker to support his family properly, Henry Ford says, there will be no more race problem.
But the race problem is more than an economic problem. Jim crow regulations, distranchisement and segregation appear in sections of great prosperity as well as in sections where there is widespread and continuous unemployment.
A crooked nose may identify and bar a Jew from Henry Ford's plant; the slant of an almond shaped eye may identify and prevent a Japanese from buying land in California; a black skin keeps thousands of qualified Negroes out of high paying jobs in Maryland.

Roland Hayes' statement that he is neither a "Colored Caruso" nor a "Colored McCormick" is a mild rebuke to those who staged a concert in Washington for the tenor recently and caused to be printed on his program "Roland Hayes, America's colored Caruso." Mr. Hayes' decided views about this matter can be laged from his declaration that when it becomes necessary to use the names of Caruso or McCormick on his program to insure success, it will be time for him to stop moving.
No one will blame Mr. Hayes for desiring to "win laurels in his own right" or not at all. Too often there are parasites who climb to fame by aping and imitating, and whose sole recommendation is that they are fairly good substitutes for the real things. And so we have the "colored Jack Dempseys," "colored Galli Curcis," "colored Shakespearees and colored Mary Pickfords," all of them mentally too lazy to carve out something in their own way.

Answer To Lowell
For three years we sat at a table in Memorial Hall with a Negro, and it seemed to us that whatever tension there may have been between the students and the insurrections or that occurred any place in the United States because a Negro student at Harvard ate at the same table with white students. Men who looked at him somewhat askance in the classroom, were able and likable. And he, in his turn, probably discovered, that men of the white race were not necessarily braggars and oppressors. A tragedy of race discrimination does not lie in the fact that nothing can be done about it but that something can.
Heywood Broun in N: Y. World
Widow For Congress
Does her intimate knowledge of her husband's affairs make a widow the best successor to her husband in public office?
That question has been made in counsel by Emerson by Mrs. May Hunt Nolan who is campaigning for the seat in Congress made vardy by the death of her husband. Congressman John L. Nolan. Mrs. Nolan has already mustered a strong backing.
Mrs. Nolan's backers point out that she did a tremendous amount of her husband's work, that she always discussed his policies with her carried on nearly all his work.
"The voters elected Nolan because of his policies," says Mrs. Nolan's supporters. "and his widow is best able to carry out these policies. To elect any other would be impossible to the original will of the voters."
And Mrs. Nolan has her say. She says:

Modern Maxims
There's no good substitute for honesty. He pays as he goes may go broke. Self-admiration is apt to cause a man to stretch the truth.
The man who lives by his wits is not always a good man. The married beauty always looks upon her husband as the beast.
If the evil in me is visible it is an easy matter to overcome the good. The more mistakes a man makes the easier it is for him to invent excuses. If a man sits in an easy chair and waits for the automobile of success he will never get there.
After a man has been married a year he won't see any reason why his care should want a new job.
One-Time Nutrish Neighbors Pays
High Tribute To Union Baptist
Church Under Late Dr. Harvey
Johnson
Town Editor:
The passing of the late Rev. Dr. Harvey Johnson reedls the beginnings of the Baptist denomination. In this city, among the colored people, Beyond doubt, since the first missionary, proved the greatest luminary of that denomination in Maryland. In 1858, Moses Chayton, a colored Baptist preacher, came to this city, and was the first man to be slave, but was then a free man, and could read and write a little. He established "The First Baptist Church" now located on the corner of Caroline and Meadow. This church did not grow rapidly but maintained an existence. Rev. Mr. Cayton, died in 1860, and the church was founded in 1852, with 57 members. From this congregation there seemed to have existed a "split" known as the "Saratoga Street Baptist Church." Of the coming Rev. Harvey Johnson the Saratoga contingency returned, and the Union Baptist church began, what the white Baptist historian, chronicles, a record of almost unexactly the same historian.
"Bro. Johnson was elected pastor, and entered service October 1872. The church had a wonderful success attended the new pastor's ministry. The first year he baptized 200 convert and received 55 pastor. It had to that time, the Church, a small community of small appropriation, from our Board, to aid in supporting their pastor; this was now declined and the Church raised all the money on the ground of their church. They immediately set to work systematically, and by continuous collections, succeeded in lifting the Church in 1855. Baptist Church had reached nearly one thousand members. The building at that time had become gaudy inadequate to accommodate needs, and necessitated
"The same white historian has to say: 'This was done at a cost of $20,000, including refitting. The understaffing and the lack of equipment they are equal to it; and by the energy and perseverance of Bro. Johnson and his leading members, it was carried through triumphantly, and made by subscription books plumed in the hands of those who could solicit from the envelope system from the members themselves, each of whom received $400 by its installments from week to week, as they were able. The whole $20,000, with the exception of about $400, was raised by the Church in the sheer manners of the people it was contributed by friends in Baltimore and in the North. The new edifice was dedicated in January 1876.'"
Besides the greatest star in the crown of Union Baptist Church is the fact that it has been a "mountain-head" of mission work. Under the leadership of that great and good man, Harvey Johnson, he became "a mother of churches."
Members from this congregation organized the following churches, in the year given: 1874, Macedonia Church; 1880, Pinkling Square Church. It also established churches at Frederick, Winfield, Westminster, and other places. Dr. Johnson was the pastor of the Christianity is somewhat indicated in the fact that the present writer, by his special invitation occupied the pulpit and presided in the second Sunday morning of its entrance in the present Druid Hill avenue edifice. It was not simply a matter of personal friendship, but St. James's ecclesiastical neighbor of Union Baptist Church.

Tommy grunted, turned over, and was silent for ten minutes; then again: "Ma I want a drink." Tommy you go to sleep? was the reply. "Intense silence again for ten minutes; then: 'Ma I want a drink.' Tommy if you come up, I'll drink you.' More silence; this time for about two minutes; and then: 'Ma, when you come up to spank me, bring me a drink won't you?' — Western Christian Advocate.

How Frederick Douglass Received His Education
Frederick Dongkiss was born in slavery in a little village known as Tuckahoe. This village was in the State of Maryland. As you know in those days, the slaves were not allowed to write. Frederick Dongkiss wanted to learn the more-named gossip in the evening he would stay away and wait for the little white boys to come from school. Then he would ask them to read him what they were told. He would give them marbles, pennies and other things of boys' money. When he was sold to a Baltimore shipbuilder, his mistress soon learned that he wanted to learn. She taught him until the master found it out. He was a slave and had received enough education to aid him in becoming famous—Calvin Dongkiss, 110 Vine street.
After Mr. Hose-Hess returned to America he was described to be器皿,a newspaper, his idea being that a newspaper in the parts of a colored man would resist in the overthrow of slavery. At that time there was no newspapers in this country under the control of colonel men, although at intervals efforts had been made to establish one. The more given to the paper which he established on the Bachelor, New York, was the "North Star." But it was afterward called "Frederic Doulles's Paper." The publication of this paper reached a large circulation and was a source of benefit in its founder. He was required to write editorials and other matter. In his early anti-slavery life he was a disciple of Mr. Garrison, and believed with him in the pro-slavery character of the Constitution of the United States that slavery could only be deported by disdying the union. He held the opposite view and defended his changed opinion in the column of the North Star.
He suffered a great loss in June 1872. His house was burned down and lost the twelve volumes of his paper. He has been able to replace them only in part. The destructor of the volumes is not a loss of the edition alone; it is also a loss to the country, for they contained some of his best thoughts in many of the
his best thoughts upon many of the most important questions which he had to answer in 1868—Grace Ellen Cole, 571 Delphin street, 2nd year High School.
We Can Emulate Doughnuts
It is said that Frederick Doughnuts was born February 12, 1817, at Tuckekin, Maryland. His mother was a slave, his father was a white man, but ten years later, he met his friends in Baltimore. The mistress of his new home was very kind. And she began to give him instruction, but his progress was slow. He was discontinued. But Fred, the guard. He was determined to get an education at any age. And from this time on his mother's bounds, the poor boy had a hard time, but when he was about to give up he would say, "Excellent! Excellent!" He delivered lectures against slavery which attracted much attention.
You may ask why is it that the Arno wants the memory of this man to be taken up like the like of Benjamin Franklin. Then I ask myself what I do what he did? I may say no, because he was a slave, and the life of Abraham Lincoln, but he also was white. But when it comes to Frederick Donglass I think I hear him say, "What have you done with him?" He has done it as the poet: Go on and up! My soul and eyes shall follow the continuous rise: My ears shall list the story. From birds who from the roof shall And proudly tune their lyes to sing of Ethiopia's glory. Theodore Granville Wood, Princess Anne, Maryland.

Learned From Bible
Frederick Dangless was a greenman. It should be been in mind that he was the first schoolmate to gain any considerable precedence in the affairs of the American people as a slave he was deceived of early education. He hearing his prize answer, he asked her to teach him the read. This she consented to do so, he showed his aptitude, that his master objected of him being taught, and so Frederick stopped teaching him. Frederick stopped teaching him bright mind and with what little knowledge he had he devised a little more. After making his escape from bondage, he found an arkam at the edge of the river, engaged in labor, he embarked every possible opportunity to cultivate his mind. In 1841 he attained an anti-slavery convention at Nantucket, his first appearance, on the public The Mass. Anti-Slavery at once employed him as a beaver, and for 54 years he was one of the most prominent figures in New York. He was able to take his place. He was true and prided—Anna Stillman, 55 W. North street, Fingerstown, MD.
Donglass And The Chestnut
Frederick Daugherty was born on the 14th of February, 1847, in Tuckahoe, Talbot County, Maryland. His mother was a Negro slave, and his father was about nine years old. He was sent to Baltimore, Md., where little older his master died, and he was sent to St. Michaels, Md. He was very smarter as a slave and wanted to know how to read. He learned from their tutelance at moon, he would fill his books with chants. On his way home he would drive the white boys to make a letter of the alphabet on the sand. The boys would make a picture of the moon and receive a chestnut. By this method he learned to read. After having served several crime-masters, he disguised himself as a sailor and escaped to New Bedford Mass. For three years he worked many spies against slavery. Frederick in later years published several papers. An extant snippet before a meeting led to him being appointed a member of the Mass.
He was Marshal of the District of Columbia, Recorder of Decree, and an American Minister to Haiti. He was widely known for his diplomacy and oration. Danglous died in Anacostia Heights, D.C., on the 20th of February, 1835. Edna Ruble, 70 years, Lincoln School, Glenville, Md.
Douglass The Orator
Frederick Douglass, a slave boy was born on a plantation in Tuckahoe, Talbert County, on the eastern coast of the United States, February 1817. The ex slave his birth was made the subject of diligent search by him in the days of his freedom, nothing more definite than the month and year could be given. During childhood his mother Harriet Bailey, was employed on a plantation a distance of twelve miles from Tuckahoe. Her only opportunity was walking the distance by night, to return to the field by dawn. When a small boy his grandmother or cared for him. She was of strong character. He was treated remarkably well until they were directed to another plantation. He was put in charge of a slave woman for whom the name he knew is Aunt Katie. This the first real hardships of his life. He made addresses on all kinds of occasions. Two very notable and dressed by him were made. He was known what was known as "Negro Day." No one
who listened to this masterful plea for justice for the Negro race can ever forget the inspiration of that. The other speech was delivered before one of the parishions on the subject, "Good Government." Many notable citizens were present. He died at his home at Carson, Calif., on February 24, 1858, buried with honors from the Metropolitan Church. Public services were held. His body interred beside his wife and daughter in Mt. Robert Hopkins Church, N. Y., Robert Hopkins 40 T. S., N. W., Washington, D. C.
Donglass, An Editor
Frederick Douglass was an American beamer and journalist of North Carolina, who soon with the help of his friend and later friend and his nephew from slavery. He was born at Tuskegee Maryland (of February 1817) of a white father and a Negro mother whose servitude he shared, according to the book. When he was ten years old he was put to work in a Baltimore shipwreck, where he taught himself to read and write. At the age of four he went to school from slavery by disguising himself as a sailor. After working several years as a day laborer in New Bedford, Mass. he bought himself to the attention of the Massachusetts General Assembly before a convention at Nuremberg, and was soon sent out as a poster, the business of the society.

Nelson Holmes, like most men absorbed in ambition, knew very little of the ways of women. Women study them. Truly they find out very little about them; nevertheless they study them. Men do not study women; they take their husbands and oits with a shring of the shoulders. Holmes was genuinely mystified. Friends he reasoned was a fine young woman. He must have at least an ordinary capacity for gratitude. Having that capacity, why did she not express it? He had resigned her from a group of rowhouses. The next time she saw her he had just resigned her host niece. She was dainly in his debt. Yet she had acted as if she had never seen him before. Explicitly she had said nothing to her sister or her brother about the first time she saw her. She was to be unaware that she had ever had such an adventure. Clearly, she had told them nothing.
But why had she not told them? There was nothing capable about it. She had allowed him to presume upon his kindness, had not even let him see her safely to the subway. There was nothing in that adventure that she could not have proclaimed to the whole world. He was all the more baffled because he instinctively felt that she was the kind of a girl who would have told him about it frankly, at least to her family.
And why had she been so cold when he met her at her home? For from entering her, he had a frigated her; yet he did not feel in the way that his son was. He did not know what he had told him that she was. But he told him that she said just two words: "I don't understand it," he would say, as he sat at his table.
His only relief was to plunge deeply into his work. With President Weatherhill's quick consent he had engaged Jerome Francis as a subsigner for South America. The long man was to study the business of a month and then go to Brazil.
"I don't keep them in school long," he would say when discussing the principles of subsmanship. "I gry, that a good grasp of the general idea and make them work out the rest for themselves, mainly by key knocks. And if they don't work out the rest, I pick them carefully. I don't believe in making a subsigner out of a girl. I want them to make themselves subsigner."
"The right idea," said President Weatherhill, "it is the secret of any business, science, or art."
"I don't claim any originality for it," said Holmes; "I got it from overhearing a conversation in the between two colored men."
"Yes," said Mr. Weatherhill, interested.
"They were musicians, it seems. One must have been a master teacher, for the other was drinking in all he said. The younger man said that he feared he should never learn to play the violin because he could not seem to hold the bow like his teacher. The older man said, This is where I had the advantage of you—my teacher could not hold the bow all, for he had no fingers. They had all been cut off in an accident. But he could tell me how to hold the bow and he made me learn. As I couldn't copy after him I had to earn for myself." "Good!" said President Weatherford. "And the overheated pockets behind the bow. Before the goose down I'm going to establish music scholarship for colored students."
Mr. Weatherling was a man of action. He swing right around in his chair, called a stonegraver and dictated a letter to the head of a dormitory that won't really reply them, he said when the letter was finished. Then he continued thoughtfully, his eyes dreamy, "Do you know, Holmes, we owe much more to the Negro than we realize. His two grand a half centuries of unpaid oil had the financial foundation of this country. And another thing—we cared a young race, when in fact they are one of the oldest races in the world. We have our civilization back to Greece. The Greeks came from Theocleia, Phoenicians from Egypt, Egypt's had to come from somewhere. Where did Ethiopia? And what were the Egyptians themselves, for that matter? We seen African mummies and less-ridiculous in the English Museum, and John Koehler's features are Negro than those of the aforementioned Negro."
The world has many things to see about the Negro, said James, leaving the president's office. When Holmes entered his own house, he found Beauregard Stuart like him. Stuart, a the bookshop strong, Southerner, was the Diana's brilliant salesman.
"Good morning, Stuart," he said, shaking the salesman's hand, "Wish to see me?"
"Yes sir," said Stuart, "looking over his shoulder, "I'll like to see you privately. It's important."
"Very well, come in," said Holmes, leading the way to his inner office. When the two men were alone and the door was shut, Stuart leaned close to Holmes.
"Mr. Holmes," he said, "I've just found out something that I think I ought to tell you. Now, I'm not going on mere suspicion. I have good grounds."
"Don't out with it," said Holmes, "I'll decide about the grounds."
"It's that new salesman, Francis, I thought he was a Spaniard or something."
"Well!"
"He's a nigger," hissed Stuart, "that he tell you."
"No, sir, but he as good as told me. I got to talking with him. Of course I mentioned the South and the niggers. I said the only way to make them behave was to string a few of them up once in a white. All of a sudden he drew back. I wish you had seen his eyes—wicked as a snake's." "Yes?" said Holmes, forcing a laugh. "I see, Stuart, that a description depends on one's point of view. If a Southern gentleman gets angry his eyes flash nobile lightning; if a Negro is angry, his eyes are like a snake's." But, Mr. Holmes, I am serious. Nobody would have met my remark with a look like that unless he was a nigger himself. You Northerners don't know. It takes a Southern to understand the nigger. And that book showed me that this Francis is a nigger as sure as my name is Bourgeois. I think he will make a fine salesman of the latter."
"But I tell you, Mr. Holmes, he's a bigger, no matter what he can do for the Llama. You don't seem to believe me."
"I not only believe you, Stuart, I know he is—he told me."
"Thi told you?" exclaimed Stuart, rising.
"Surely he did, and the president knows he did."
"And you engaged him, knowing that?"
"I did."
"And you are going to keep him here, working with white men?"
"Yes, until he learns the business, then he's to represent us in South America."
"But, Mr. Holmes, I expect to go to South America, too. Do you expect me to work with a nigger?"
"Well, said Holmes, you not."
"Hi, said Yollesh casily, you
needed to go to South America, you
know?
"But, it's a wonderful field, sir,
you promised it to me."
"I'm ready to keep my promise."
"But I can't with n—"
"You needn't. You can stay in America."
"But, sir—"
"Business is business: prejudice is only prejudice. Young Franks, my mind is an ideal man for Someone. I knows more about that field, people, customs, and history than you do, and he can handle more coffee there."
"But he's a—"
"He's going to South America. If you don't wish to work with him, I can send Hemoway. He played football and baseball with colored man at Harvard. I think he said he招呼 with a colored man at Akron. "I won't submit to this," said Smart with flashing eyes. "I'll see Mr. Weathering."
"Well see him together," said Holmes, following him out of the office. In a moment they were in the president's office, and Smart told his whole story. "The Ironhead listened intently, basked in flashed and shaded." Holmes "he said with interest looking at Smart, what other man have you for South America?" "Homeway wishes to go, sir."
"Let him go," said the president, turning back to his desk.
"Miss Gray," said Mr. Weatherby, to the stenographer, "takes down a bitter of recommendation. "To whom it may concern—Mr. Legrand-gard Stuart is a first-class salesman—"
Smart, flaming with indignation dashed out of the office, Holmes returned to his office and sent for Hemenway.
"Hemenway," he said, when that young man presented himself, large, blond, rosy-faced, and smiling, "didn't you know some colored fellows at Harvard?" "Yes, sir," said Hemenway. "One of me coached me when I tried for tackle on the football team, and I helped elect another one class officer. And I wonder I roomed with one a girl on show."
"You know how young Friends?" "Yes, sir. Talked with him yesterday. A fine, bright fellow." "He's colored too."
"Yes?" said Hemenway in surprise. "He didn't tell me."
"He assured he would have told you if he had occasion to. He's going to South America for us; how'd you like to work with him?" "South America!" said Hemenway, beaming. "Would I like to go there? I should say so—it's the richest field in the world. But I thought you had given that to Stuart." "Stuart is not going. You can go. Mind working with Frenchs?" "No, sir; why should I? He's bright and on the level, a very likeable fellow. Well make a great team." "All right; it's settled."
"Why, Mr. Holmes. I certainly thank you for picking me. I'll do my best to qualify your choices." "Oh, you justify it all, all right." Hemeenway went joyfully out of the office. Then Holmes seated himself at his desk and looked thoughtfully out of the window. A fine thing had been done, but it suddenly occurred to him that this might not be the end of it. He well knew that every act sets another in motion. Stuart might make trouble among the salesmen, and if the rest of them designed it would make trouble for

the Llama Company. Holmes knew they could not be easily replaced, for he himself had carefully selected and trained them. They were not all like young Hemoney, who had profited by Stuart's resignation. Holmes remembered, too, that there were two Southerners on the board of director the Llama. If Stuart should go to them with his troubles they would almost surely support him. They might influence enough of the other directors to overrule President Weathering, who, though a large stockholder, did not hold a majority of the stock. Indeed Weathering without any argument might simply refer them to Holmes and let Holmes bear the brunt. A salesmanager was much easier to get rid of than a president. Perhaps the president would soon report of his act and be human enough to let Holmes take the consequences. I think I'd better see the president again," mussed Holmes, the rose and weat to the president's office.
"Well, Holmes," said President Weathering, "what's it now—get another young Afro for salesman?" "No, sir, said Holmes, smiling, 'I'm wondering what will come of our hiring this one.' "Not getting cold feet about it, arrogant, "No sir, not at all. I am glad we hired Frames, and I think he will make money for the Llama, and more than take the place of Stuntz. But in case Stuntz should try to make trouble among the other men—" "Huh!" said the old president, "you're boss, I guess you know how to handle 'em. They won't have to work with young Frames, anyhow, none but Homemay, and you say he's not耐心. Take a strong hand with 'em, I approved of the appointment, and I back up 'up.' And to the point, sir, I don't wish to cause you trouble or embarrass of your kind."
Oh, that's it, eh?" said President Weathering, shooting a quick glance at his sales manager. "Well, son, I gossip too will try to hang me because a salesman's been fired. And they won't hang you, either, as long as I'm president your jobs as safe as mine."
"Thank you, Mr. Weathering," said Holmes gratefully. "My disquiet was also caused by the fact that although the men might not resign they might not keep up the same enthusiasm about their work, and that enthusiasm I regard as a great factor in the Llama's success. But young Francis was so extraordinarily bright—"
"That you, as a bright man yourself, had a natural weakness for him you were on binge on binge that you were change your mind you found out his color."
"I contess," said Holmes, "that I had some such feeling. And then I'm almost inclined to boost that I know a Llama man when I first lay

GAS IN THE STOMACH IS DANGEROUS
GAS IN THE STOMACH IS DANGEROUS
Recommends Daily Use of Magnesia. To Overcome Trouble Caused by Fermenting Food and Acid Indigestion
Gas and wind in the stomach accompanied by that full, bloated feeling after eating eating are almost certain evidence of the presence of excessive hydrochloric acid in the stomach creating so-called "acid indigestion". Acid gashes and dings dangerous because too much acid irritates the delicate lining of the stomach, often leading to gastritis accompanied by serious stomach ulcers. Food ferments and sours, creating the distressing gas which distends the stomach and hampers the normal functions of the vital internal organs, often affecting the heart.
It is the worst of folly to neglect such a serious condition or to treat with ordinary digestive aids which have no neutralizing effect on the stomach heds. Instead get from any drugsthist a few ounces of Bismarcal Magnesium and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. 'This will drive the gas, wind and bloat right out of the body, swatten the stomach, neutralize the excess acid and prevent its formation and there is no sources or path. Bismarcal Magnesium provides a liquid alkali) is harmless to the stomach, inconvenient to take and the best form of magnesium for stomach purposes. It is used by thousands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigestion.-Aly.

Surf Bathing Planned At Brown's Grove This Year
HISTORY OF BROWN'S GROVE
Captain Brown started with passenger boat in 1906—Steamer New Bill.
Chartered Steamer Starlight No. 1 in 1907 and later bought it for $10,000 in 1908.
Purchased Brown's Grove as recreation spot for excursionists.
Lost $40,000 steamer by fire in 1914.
Offered $50,000 last week for Steamer Starlight.
Carried 225,000 excursionists in 1922.
Installed roller coaster last year, this year surf Givens employment for fifty persons.
The story of an idea that had its birth in the mind of a man as he sat in a miserable "jin crow" car on a trip on the Eastern Shore an idea that grew from nothing in 1906 to a $150,000 enterprise and the only one of its kind operated indly by a co-owned man in 1922, is the story of the development of Brown's Grove and the acquisition of the Steamer Starlight.

Shore. It was an incident on this trip in which he, having the men under him in charge, had to leave them and sit in a dirty apartment for "Negroes and baggage" that made him take the step which resulted in his present enterprises. That short ride has probably been worth more to the colored people in Baltimore than figures can tell, for it was the direct cause of a decision on his part to provide some kind of transportation where colored people could be treated decently.
Realizing that he could not operate a railroad he decided on a steamboat. In 1906 the first passenger and freight boat to be operated from this shore by a colored man began.

belongings and chartered a boat of 450 passenger capacity for $3,300. This was operated successfully until the following year when they bought it outright for $10,000 and named it "Starlight."
Success Crowns Efforts
Considerable success attended the development of the idea by this time and in 1909 they had this boat rebuilt, operating it in co-partnership with Brown and Langley. In 1912 the same boat was rebuilt and many other improvements made. But in 1914 it caught fire and was burned. The value of the steamer was about $40,000 and with $20,000 insurance
Starlight.
Before putting this boat into commission, however, it was completely overhauled and many improvements made. The purchase price was $43,000 and more than $10,000 was spent in improvements.
Offered $50,000 For Boat
The fact that the value of this boat has been greatly increased is shown by the fact that last week Captain Brown was offered $50,000 cash for it. Flattering offers have been made the Captain lately both for his enterprise here and to come to other cities and do business. New York, Washington as well as Richmond business men and financiers have made him tempting offers.
His pride in what he has accomplished here in Baltimore and the fact that he wants to continue to serve this community as long as they rally to his support and show proper appreciation, has made him turn down lucrative propositions.

operation with these welfare agencies enables them not only to provide a first class recreation for their constituency, but has been a great help in providing them with means to carry out their programs.
During the last five years an average of 225,000 people yearly have been accommodated on this boat. Brown's Grove has become the picnic grounds of colored Baltimore.
It has offered facilities for camping parties and for activities of boy and girl clubs.
Colored Crew and
Another big factor in racial development that must not be overlooked in connection with the Brown enterprises is the employment it has provided for colored men, and the inspiration as an object lesson it is to the young men of the race. The entire crew of the Steamer Starlight, which is one of the largest excursion steamers on the Chesapeak Bay, is composed of colored men. Most of the officers and mechanics who operate the boat have been trained by Captain Brown and it was through his efforts that colored men were allowed licenses to do this grade of
work. Such an opportunity

Plan Many Improvements For Coming Season
Notwithstanding the fact that every year Captain Brown has added improvements to his enterprises, this year will probably see the largest expansion in its history. The success of the $20,000 roller-coaster installed some time ago and the shower baths and other improvements have been so encouraging that this season many new features will greet pleasure seekers at the grove. Arrangements for surf bathing will be completed with full facilities for the greatest amount of enjoyment and benefit from this popular diversion. New cement walks and an expansion of the amusement features are also part of the season's plans.

been due to the support of the people of Baltimore coupled with the business ability and determination of Captain Brown. Long since these enterprises which now are estimated in value above the $150,000 mark, have produced enough to provide comfortable living for its founder but as long as the people give the proper support Captain Brown wants to give them the benefit of his services. Many white promoters would gladly gobble up this chance to gather in the cash from the big business these enterprises have developed, but he wants it to remain in the hands of col-

Proper co-operation on the part of the colored people must always be forthcoming that this project may remain the property of the race.
In a city such as is Baltimore with its 110,000 colored souls and with its growing group of young manhood and womanhood, the development of such a business as the above is of more than passing importance in the progress of the racial group. No boy or girl could see the successful operation of such a movement—men and women handling the business and mechanical of such a system—and not have the horizon of his own possibilities wid-

New York, Jan. 24.—Marcus Gurvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, issued the following statement yesterday in denial of the charge made against his organization by the New Orleans police, that it was an archaistic and contemptuated an overthrow of the Government:
"There is absolutely no truth in the statement of the New Orleans police that they have seized archaistic literature as a meeting of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The association has no such literature, neither does it preach hatred for any one.
"We have absolutely no connection with the murder of J. W. H. Eason, and the statement that Eason was a star witness against me is nothing the man could have said that would injure me. I have paid but little attention to the charge of using the mails to detain, in that I know the whole affair to be a 'frame-up' among jealous Negroes who have been trying for some time to embarrass me. There is no more loyal American organization than the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Following telegram was sent to Attorney General Darnethy yesterday by Mr. Carray.
"On behalf of 2,500,000 loyal citizens, members of the Universal Immigrant Provement Association, who have all times praised their loyalty to the Government of the United States and on behalf of 100,000 Negroes throughout the world who look to the United States of America for justice, we protest against the scandalous and the Universal Negro Improvement Association, a legal organization in the United States of America, in the raiding of the meeting place and the arrest of the officers of the New Orleans Division, No. 429, by officers of your department, who are being instigated to act against the Universal Negro Improvement Association by rival Negro organizations, namely, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a group of Socialists, the African Socialist organization, and the African Blood Brotherhood, representatives of the Bolshevik of Russia.
"The Universal Negro Improvement Association is neither Socialist, Bolshevist, nor anarchist, as your representatives are endeavoring to make out, with their disloyal movement, and in our records of fifty years there can be found absolutely no trace of disloyalty to the United States of America in any of our communications, besides a unfit that a department of the Government should be used by rival organizations for the purpose of injuring those whom they desire to embarrass."

The Associated News, Inc.
Chicago, il. Jan. 24—There's considerable difference between the "Windy City" and Jonesville, La., as James Brougham Smith, white, of that city, learned to his sorrow here last Thursday. Smith, who boasts of a friendship for "Cop" skipped from Mer Rong's home for a roads convention. Entering a Thompson restaurant he hailed a colored waiter carrying a tray full of dishes. "Come here, nigger," he ordered. What did he say it for? Fredwells hid down his tray and the fun started. Smith got the worst of the lath in a gun and for the shots. The occupants of the restaurant had out, but the police flocked in.
"I in a Southern gentleman and not to be trumped," said Smith to Judge Schultman, in South Clark Street Court, "Your time is $190," returned the Judge crisply. "Col. Smith is on his way back to Jonesville, saddler, but wiser."
Notable Race Progress In 1922; Better Schools and Appointment of Colored Supervisor is Program
People of State Co-operate, Including Governor and Other Officials
Louisville, Ky., Jan. 24 (Special)
Notable progress in the bestment of conditions for colored people and in the improvement of race relations was made in Kentucky last year, according to reports presented at the annual meeting in this city of the State Commission on Interracial Cooperation. This Commission is headed by the Governor, and its membership of eighty, half of them colored, is made up of representative leaders in all lines, including the State Superintendent of Education, who is one of its most sympathetic members. The work is directed by eighty, half of the ability and line spirit, who has had the sympathy and cooperation of the best people of the State.
The efforts of the Commission during the post year were largely directed toward better school facilities for Negroes. Remarkable results were attained, including the following: a $140,000 high school addition, a new school, and the improvement of others, in Louisville; a $140,000 high school in Lexington; enlargement of high school at Richmond; new buildings at Mayfield, Jackson, Lactrang, and other public; participation in programs of school bond issues in Bowling Green, Owensboro, and Midlothian; and additional resources increased salaries in certain places.
The Director was asked by the State Superintendent of Education to outline a program for the heterogeneous of the Negro School System of the State, and suggested the appointment of a colored supervisor, the raising of the State Normal to college grade, and the establishment of a new State Normal. This program was accepted, the first two steps have already been taken, and the third is confidently expected next year. The Director was asked to assist also in locating the eight colored summer Normals and was requested to address them all on the subject of inter-racial cooperation. The taken complements the primaries of white colleges of the State and has been heard sympathetically everywhere. Some of these great schools have courses in inter-racial relations and plans are under way to out such courses in others.
Better playground facilities have been secured in Louisville, Maryland and Jackson, and plans are under way for a municipal swimming pool in Louisville. Legal aid has been extended in certain cases, privilege of membership in the Strawberry Association has been secured for forty-five members of the community. Health Week Campaign was conducted, reaching 60,000 people, and one tense situation which threatened mob violence was cleared up.
In addition to the State Interracial Commission, there are about seventy county committees in Kentucky, most of them functioning in Kentucky. The method is that of frank conference and sympathetic cooperation.

RURAL SCHOOL EXHIBITIONS ARE DESIGNED TO BAMBOOZLE PARENTS
By Dr. A. R. Budd
I wish to beg the indulgence of those, to whom I had promised to write this week, about the Negro minister and the public schools. I think under the circumstances I had best postpone that article until a week or two later. I wish to say, however, just here, that much will depend upon the attitude and courage of our ministers, in which they are OUR ministers in a very delithe way. Unfortunately it is true that most frequently the Negro teacher is not OUR teacher in the same way.
The writer of these articles has visited the annual memorial exhibitions of the "Huffington School" from one end of this State to the other. There have been many times when he felt like crying, over the pathetic efforts in calculation, in the use of figures?
What showed the rapidity which they could solve even the most ordinary text book problem? What showed the precision and exactness with which they could unravel the practical complex propositions, with which life daily confronts them? I am not even discussing the straight-thinking, so necessary these days, and which comes and comes along from mental drill.
What showed their knowledge of the great historical developments of the centuries or the relation geographical contiguity held to these same developments or events? What showed that they could even spell the most common words. One old-fashioned spelling match would have been worth all the display of all the letters rolled into one, so far as actual "Educational Value" is concerned.

At the best they faced a large chance to live with some degree of comfort—at the worst, and the too frequent worst; they faced a Geithmanse leading to the embittenion of hope, manhood and ambition. It would seem that almost any good man, white or black, would count. I one of God's high privileges to really know these children in the proper way. But I write about these exhibitions. One could always see dolies, little gingham aprons, simple dresses, a mended pair of shoes perhaps, shuck mats, little honeycandy buckets and perhaps a few little gingercracks made with the saw and hammer.

But there was nothing of all this—only words, words, words. The Lord knows that I offer freely and sincerely, my amazed and wondering tribute to the lung capacity of Huffy.
But I want to note certain exceptions. The only Academic exhibitions worthy of the name, were prepared and shown each year at Fairmount Park. The name is "Prince Google's County Miss Wilkes was responsible for these exhibitions. The last time I was there I did not see her, and asked about her. Sadly the answer came—"She is gone." I was glad to learn that a great city with a splendid system for white and black had reached out and taken her in.
The first exhibition I saw of real mechanical skill on the part of supervisor and students, I saw at Easton, Maryland. There, articles of furniture and other solids and substructures were exhibited in Mr. Walker was supervisor. I passed through Easton some time ago and asked for Mr. Walker. The answer came: "He is gone."
The same type of work was in evidence at Hagerstown, Maryland, Mr. Smith had charge of that work there. Is Mr. Smith now at Hagerstown or working in the Maryland schools at some other point? The answer is he is gone. I am not acquiring anybody of losing responsible for the schools losing worth-while people continually, but they are gone, or going, many of them. Perhaps there is a lesson here. We may learn it too late.

SOUTHERN COPS ALWAYS READY TO ARREST US
It has often occurred to me how fortunate it was that I did not hail from Boston.
On another occasion I was guest of a well-to-do Negro who owned an automobile of expensive make. We had motored some fifty miles and were returning homeward when we passed a white man driving a frisky colt. The buggy was of ancient vantage. Seeing the car, the animal became frightened and unruly. We shook his face when he shook his fist at us and called us names. He appeared more interested in invoking his wrath than in managing his horse.
COLT OWNER'S CHARGES
our big surprise was handed us when we drove into the next town and my friend was told by the Sheriff he was under arrest on charges preferred by the owner of the obstreperous colt. The complaint had been made over the telephone. Animals could put have been more prolific in trumpeting up charges. In court the owner of the car was detained as a witness, repled, impident. Negro who thought he owned the entire road, who was callous as to the safety of others and had deliberately run into the complainant's buggy. These misrepresentations cost my host in fines and attorney's fees over $50.
One afternoon I was a member of an automobile party in another Southern town. We were on our way to a barbecue. Without warning, one of the curs stopped and asked me if I knew if a certain female occupant was white. She answered in the negative. Not until her sister, who was of darker complexion but here a striking resemblance, registered emphatic denial was the incredulity of the investigators apposed. Then they drove off. Two blocks away we spied a white woman of apparent driving a car and a colored maid comfortably ensnared on a rear seat.

The night previously, after the
show, the defendants had escorted
two female acquaintances to their
respective homes in the suburbs.
While standing on the corner at 11
o'clock, waiting for a car bound for
the city, a police officer inquired
to their presence. Having answered
the question, they were
next asked where they lived. Un-
wittingly they told him New York.
"Oh, you're New York niggers; you'd
better come 'long with me,' quoth the police officer, who arrested
them for loitering.

Sunday morning the police ministrate, worshiping in a church a block from the jail, was called out and importunted to arrange matters so the defendants might leave town with the company. The impression he sought to give was the case was

3000 ATTEND 32D ANNUAL FARMERS' CONFERENCE HELD AT TUSKEGEE
$5,000 Movable School Presented; Better Labor-Saving Devices Urged for Home and Farm
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., January 24—More than three thousand Negro farmers, educators, ministers farm and home demonstration agents, and other welfare workers attended the Thirty-second annual Tuskegee Negro Conference Wednesday.
Features of the Conference were addresses by Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of the Tuskegee Institute who condemned pistol-toting Col. Rocosee Conklin Simmons, Dr. J. A. Evans and Charles W. Pugeley of U. S. Department of agriculture. The activities of the day included exhibits of agricultural products, demonstrations, the presentation of the Booth for Washington Meeting, Truck with complete moving picture outfit costing $5,600 for school extension work.
The conference went on record as adopting resolutions commending the farmers for heeding the advice of the Conference in the years gone, by urging the purchase of Labor saving devices for the home, improved farming techniques, declaring the farm of the farmers for 2023 what "Better Farming" Better Business" and "Better Living" deploring lynching and all forms
too serious to permit his interference. After we had indulged in oceans of obsequious talk, another official finally agreed to release the prisoners if $100 was left to pay their fines by default the next morning. The defendants were not paid $50 each, but the amount returned them after the fines and charges incident to trial were deducted was small. In another town one morning, about 11 o'clock, a woman member of a Negro show was going to the theatre for her mail. She was approached by two men whose attitude was one of familiarity. She resented what she regarded as an insult in forceful words. They shamed her for detectives and arrested her for disorderly conduct. Only prompt action by the theatre managers made it possible for her to work at the matinee performance.
WHITES HAVE RIGHT OF WAY
Riding in an automobile with two acquaintances one day in the business district of a thriving Southern city we were caught in the traffic congestion and held with other cars going in our direction. When the policemen gave orders to start, the driver of our car promptly obeyed. At the intersection our car was brought to an abrupt exit to avoid a collision. Although we had the right of way, a white driver coming from another direction descended it his preoccupative to gross us because we were Negroes. This attitude renders it dangerous and difficult for Negroes to drive automobiles where traffic regulations are a legal variety. Only Negro chauffeurs working for white people can, with complacency, adhere to the law without fear of losing life or limb.
53 SUPERVISORS IN VA.
Richmond, Va., Jan. 25—During the present session there are fifty-three Jeanes fund "supervisors working among the Negro schools in about fifty counties of the State, it was learned at the office of the State Board of Education today.
of mob violence, pointing out the continued growth in understanding and good will which is being accomplished through the Southern Commission on Race Relations.
That the influence of the conference is not confined to this section or state was evidenced by many groups coming from every state from Virginia to Texas.
Demonstrations Instructive
Of special interest to the women was the display of children's clothing made from scraps; scraps made from flour and meal sacks; gloves from stockings and an improvised, properly arranged and intractively furnished home. While the men evinced much interest in each demonstration it was evident that a greater interest was manifest in that of inoculating hogs against cholera, and that of an anti-boll weevil machine which was being demonstrated by the American Roll Weevil Spraying Machine Company.
Colonel Sifhonnons explaining why the young Negro farmers were leaving the South, declared: "Open the door of education to the children, speak the law, and give the courthouses to justice; let the white women of the South, wearing the livery of beauty and honor, blow out the torch of the mob, will stay in the South, and show the world how much books resting under the roof and its big tree." B. S. Pompey of Macon County declared farmers must provide recreation for children so that they will not want to leave and settle in cities.

NATIVES BEAT "BOSS" AT HIS VERY OWN GAME
White Officer Left Glass Eye To Watch Workers, But Africans Cover It Up With Old Hat
Berlin, Jan. 6—East African superstition and iniquity are amusingly illustrated in an incident related by the German Colonel Dr. E. Nigham, in his memoirs of the days when he was in charge of colonial administration in that part of the world. One of his most reminishe able, he says, was a native German colonel who had lost an eye during one of the local expeditions, and wore a glass one in its place. The officer was assigned to superintend the erection of a post office in a rural district. The inhabitants had long been delinquent in tax payments and consequently each male adult obligated to meet his civic obligations by painting in a week's labor on the new government building.
One day while the native laborers were industriously at work under his vigilant watch, the lieutenant colonel was temporarily called away. On leaving the building he took out the glass eye, placed it on one of the walls, and announced to the workers: "Look here, my men. I must go now, but I am leaving my eye to keep tab on you and to see that you keep working while I am away." It was with considerable self-satisfaction that he returned to find his gang hard at work. Two days the lieutenant colonel had another simultaneous to leave his post. Again he placed the glass eye in charge and left. Returning he noticed from after that building operations were at a standstill and all of his dusky help soaring peacefully. Upon looking for his "foreman" eye, he found it carefully covered with an old hat.

Little Johnnie, with the boxes and each arm, marched up to one door and knocked. "Why are you selling the soap?" enquired the lady selling the soap. "To raise $3,000,000 for Radcliffe." "Three million dollars! And are trying to raise it all by yourself." "No" came the quick response, there's another little boy helping me."—Indianapolis News.

Willie had a habit of putting his trousers on hind part before. His mother tried to stop him by making him say hind part first about a hundred times. This was in his mind so securely until in his evening prayer he said, "My hind down to sleep. Hind part first. I pray thee Lord my soul to keep Hind part first.

Managing A Husband
Men are only boys grown tall, and I manage my "tail" boy just as I do my shorter ones. I try to be a pal to him at all times—a real partner. I take just as much interest in his problems and perplexities as I want him to take in value. When I wear a household equipment I do not "wear the ground his" not "might nights devising some plan to "wheeled him out of the money". I go to him frankly, as a man to man, tell him what I need and why I need it, and we discuss the pros and cons just as any two partners might. In this way it gives him a more personal interest in the house, and puts him in close touch with his wife and husband. Also it eliminates the age-old husbandy wall about "wife extravagance" for my husband not only knows what the money is spent for, but knows he can depend upon me to use it to the best advantage and knows he can rely upon my judgment in any crisis that may arise.
MRS. ALICIA M. WALKER
Sure! Every self-respecting woman manages her husband, but there are WAYS. I manage mine and he likes it! I do not even have to whelde, blame, or deceive him either. Just plain, honest-to-goodness love him. He goes on a campage, just let him go to it—it will not last long. Remember all men are sons of Adam, and have to lay the blame somewhere.
My bully says a wife is worth $500 to any man's money every year just to lay the blame on. So it pays sometimes to be his scapegoat. Do not get fussy and be selfily and cry—just be a stunnish little pet who will measure up to his standard. Mix plenty of love in your management and you wrap him around your finger, that more does any woman want? That's the way you would rather be managed isn't it?

After use, a sponge should be squeezed as dry as possible and then hung up by a string in the air to dry. When used with soap it should be squeezed in warm water and left to lie for a few minutes in cold water. Soap should never be placed in the sponge, the soap should not be wrung as this breaks the fibres and injures the elasticity.

Bringing Up Father
From my earliest rememberance my father was a "grouch" and given to making unfavorable comparisons, and, as the years passed, he became so pessimistically critical that he could be so torn to a family coup that he would not result that my mother wrote to grandma (father's mother) asking her to come. She did so, supposing that she had been called solely to help care for her sick daughter who lived next door. It was then arranged that grandma should help care for her niece, the two father and daughter, and mother should care for my aunt during these hours. Neither grandma nor father shared this little secret, so when the meals were prepared she went away and mother slipped meekly into her chair in the foot of the table with a book of criticism of the really well-prepared food and of grandma's wonderful skill in the culinary art.
The climax came one night when father, in a fit ofrage, sprang up and dumped his pie into the garbage pile, muttering that it wasn't fit to eat and he hadn't had a decent meal at home for a whole month.
There was a crash of china, and we all dashed out, to see father seemingly rooted to the spot, and grandma, who had come around the corner, looking at him with mild, reproachful eyes.
It was Dot, blessed baby comforter of all our family, who again came to the rescue. "Don't cry, granny, but lovingly with my pie, I binge," she said, with her funny little face. Then shaking her finger accusingly at him, she said, "He alluth scolds." As dot patted the wrinkled, kindly hands, grandma's eyes met mothers, and the light of a great understanding came into them. "Since I seem to have failed to bring my son around the first time, I said gravely. It was right that I should have had this opportunity to try it again."
Father shan himself up in his study, and at begtime a much chastened daddy except silently into bed. Sussequent days, months and years have passed, but our hats are off to bad, for his reformation has been complete, for "granny" brought him up right that second time. MRS. M. L.
A TRIBUTE TO MOTHER
My definition for a mother is an angel on earth, deprived of wings by God until in due time he will call her to her Heavenly home and receive an everlasting blessing for her work on earth. He will call her or may, mother will never forsake her own. Her loving son may, without any thought of his mother's tender feeling for him wander far away from home. He goes about gayly for a while as would a butterfly flittering here and there in the beautiful sunshine of God's glory, loving her children, cold winds bring a message of the winter soon to follow and fate deals with him as would a hawk swooping down upon its prey, then, thinking of that mother he has forsaken, he will say:— "These chily winds show true love my condition I will venture into the world, him in her arms and enfolds him in her love as a bird would receive
her brood under the protection of her wings. So, be true to that divine angel while she is on earth, and when God calls her, cease not to think of her. And it must follow that the dead man's life shall be filled with much unexpected goodness and success. LEE HARROD.

Keep Well
M. S., R. S. K. Q.—Will you kindly
recuse for my son, 10 months old?
I will.
A—Your son is too young to exercise.
Reader. Q—Please tell me what to do for a greasy and shiny skin.
A—Apply hot and cold compresses to your face, alternately, for ten minutes each, daily.
K. J. S. Q—Is it dangerous to take gas when having a tooth extracted, and does the gas have any bad after effects?
A—When properly administered it is not dangerous and in most cases there are no bad after effects.
B. D. Q—While lying down I every often get a crump in the muscles of my foot. Will you kindly tell me whether or not this is dangerous.
A—the pain is due to a musculus spasm following prolonged standing or flattening of the arches. Massage will help it. If your arches are flat, wear suitable shoes to help overcome this condition.
Mrs. R. E. K. Q—At frequent intervals during the day a sort of chill passes over my scalp and sometimes in other parts of my body. I do not have any fever. What do you think it is?
A—This trouble is probably due to neuritis. You should have a thorax physical examination to determine what is causing your cold and have it treated accordingly.
B. K. Q—Please tell me whether anything can be done to cure one of snoring.
A—Almost invariably snoring is the result of mouth breathing. The first essential in the cure, therefore, is to restore normal breathing through the nose. This may be impossible on account of adenoids cataractal thickening of the nasal cavity. For relief a nasal throat specialist should be consulted for an examination and treatment.
Hundreds of thousands living in every state in the Union are holders or are becoming holder of stock in "wildest" Texas oil promotions. And their chances of total loss of their investment are at least 97 per cent, concludes E. A. Schwab special investigator for the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World after weeks of probing into the methods of more than 300 promotional companies. Over two years, Schwab estimates, Texas promoters have harvested more than $224,000 from stock sales, "Fly-by-night" companies operating from Fort Worth alone have come and gone by the thousands, he says. "Getting oil is the average promoter's last thought," says Schwab. "Even when those promotional companies drill success fully ways usually are found to deprive the investor of his share."

SUCCOTASH
This is a good dish for a cold winter day, and is very economical. Boil 1 cup or dry lime beans until tender, salt and pepper them, and add one-half cup of corn. Tub sugar butter and a cup of cream. When it is cooked to simmer, add teaspoon flour blended to a smoothie in a little milk. The soup that is left will make excellent cotties.
These are fine. Select nice whi-
onions of even size, and parbeli-
them ten minutes. Scoop out a
little of the center and fill the
holes with pork chopped line, a
few bread crumbs, a dot of butter
then season. Put the onions in a
small baking pan, add a very little
boiling water and bake them until
brown.
This salad is to be arranged individually, and for each service the following ingredients will be needed:
Three heart leaves of lettuce.
One-half apple, pared, and cut into thin slices.
One-half green peppers, porboiled, and cut into strips.

T.O.B.A.MEETS ON THURSDAY
Colored. Vaudeville Circuit Despite Some Drawbacks Has Benefited Owners and Performers
SUGGESTIONS OFFERED
Advised Against Making Performers Cat's-paw In Fighting Opposition
The annual meeting of the Theater Owners Booking Association is set for January twenty-fifth. Pressure of business prevents the writer attending as the unofficial representative of the performers. As present the Association is advertising in a paper which cares for immediate profit than for the performers' welfare as follows: "acts and companies accepting engagements from opposition theaters will be subject to inconvenience." The Temple Theater in Cleveland, and the Lincoln Theater in Kansas City are mentioned by
Fights between capitalists, and business enterprises in a very mature feature of the age. They are expected. That these houses have circuit frames because a matter of security, the circuit, is unfair for the latter, to block acts for playing them in unlaw as since they are at liberty and have the time to so do, is proof positive that the circuit is not keeping the acts busy. We agree that an act cannot exert a coercive opposition house and a circuit house in the same town but the direct threat of "inconvenience" in their future books is getting entirely too close to those laws that that cost some other clients a lot of money to comply with all sentences.
The T. O. E. A. is pretty well divided into four distinct groups of theaters. Give the sets a route over each of these sections, with a minimum of "Lay-off" between the groups, and there will be no acts. We have been gratified to note a tendency in the right direction with respect to the suggestion of the suggestion advance, sometimes a more gesture in the right direction, but nevertheless right. More Tabs have been getting into New York, and while here have been obtaining new material and costuming. More acts have been writing in providing a route of more than just the next week. More theaters have been making a feature of these orchestra, allotted in Brinquedos. She then Revenues in Brinquedos. Winston-Salem and Washington show an improvement in the bills in so far as variety is concerned, however much remains yet to be done in this direction.
Generally speaking, business conditions have greatly improved and the association officials are to some degree from the safety that precluded last year converting the possibility of keeping business alive. All they perhaps will be able to devise more attention to the strictly professional phase of affairs.
Johnson and McIlvost lost two week of Low time in Milwaukee because of an optional clause in their contract for two days work in the Anderson houses in Chicago only provided for two days' work. Some day our jobs will get the habit of signing contracts before signing contracts before they have to kick on the terms.

Musical Organization Headed By Maryland Girl In Big Demand
By J. A. Jackson
A thoroughly efficient organization that is rapidly becoming a driving card in the metropolitan territory that extends from Boston to Washington, D. C., is the ladies orchestra that Della Sutton has been presenting during the season under the name of "The Melody Guild." The band, all of whose members are affiliated with the A. F. M. local $02, of New York, is composed of a group of bonale musicians who got together in 1922. In August Delta Sutton took over the organization of the organization, and exercising some of the vigorous characteristics of Lent, Fred Simpson, from whom she had taken trombone lessons, she began a campaign of keeping the girls busy. With Miss Sutton, it is either playing engagements, or playing at the event. The result is that recurred periods have been becoming more brief, for lack of time.
Miss Sutton, a native of Marion, Md., was musically educated at the New York Conservatory; played for five years with the Metropolitan Theater; the Howe Theater in Washington; a summer engagement at Ashbury Park; and has appeared at a number of concert engagements.
Others in the group are Beatrice Anderson, violin; Bertha Landry, piano; Hilda Mammagath, bass; Kate Mammagath, cornet; Lena Holmes, trumpet; Lily Washington, cornet; Carrie Giles, saxar; and Miss Walter, cello.
The outfit spent the holiday weeks in and around Boston, was in Washington for a composing a tour that will take them into Ohio, Western New York and Pennsylvania.
MICHEAUX PICTURES
Among the recent callers at the Billboard office in New York, was Oscar Michaels, head of the picture concern that bears his name. For the past half year, he has spent most of his time in and about Ronnie, Va., and in the coal districts of West Virginia, where practically all of the concerts activities have been centered.
in-
The company has in the hands of their distributors the following films: "The Virgin of Seminole" featuring Shinzie Howard and Won't Yet Fountain, and "Joseph Jones" "Will" starred by the Some artists. "The Impalace" with Kevyn仰 and Chassmond and A. Bune. Decommission in the principal parts and "The House Behind The Cedars." It is announced that work upon two new films will be commenced at once. One will be made from the Mary White Aguillon's "Snowfall" and the other will be called "The Fool's Erend." The latter will be filmed at Nassau two the Galamus. The Chicago office has general work Michaoux in Charge, and G. A. Aguillo Q'Nell as General Agent. The company will collaborate and will work in the Boonoke, while the releases in the southwest are being handled by A. the N. Odams of the Verdon Theater, Breamton, Texas.

"DARK STARS THAT SHINE"
Article In Classic Magazine Tells of Rise of Edna Morton, Queen of Colored Screendom
LEVY HEADS REOL CORP.
Founder of Lafayette Players Now Managing Galaxy of Screen Artists
Under the caption "Dark Stars That Shine," which heads this article, Erie D. Walroad in Classics, a monthly motion-pictures magazine, publishes an interesting article in the February issue telling something of the rise of Edna Morton.
Mike Morton has played the leading roles of all of the productions of the Real Productions Corporation organized by Robert Levy, white, who also organized the original Lafayette Players.
IS LEADING SCREEN STAR
Says Walrond, "Usually the colored actors that are seen in the movies today are of the buffoon variety, boottacks, stable boys, chambermids, etc. . . . It is not generally known, for instance, that there is a colored Mary Pickford. . . . The woman is Edna Plotton. She is a woman who does the grape and abandon typical of her race. She has appeared in more motion pictures than any other colored actress. She is to the Negro screen what Florence Mills is to the vaudeville stage. "She is what the skapstick artists would call a teasing brown. She was born in Washington, Pa., but moved to at Howard University, the leading colored university in the United States, she studies dramatic art."
Miss Morton began her career in 1912 in "The Old Man's Day," Andrew Bishop's first musical comedy, as a chorus girl, says Mr. Walpole.

ORGANIZED REAL PICTURE CORPORATION
Having single this discovery, Levy set about organizing the Real Company for the making of motion pictures dealing with Negro life. In selecting his picture stars, he did not go to Mississippi, but to the colleges and universities. At Harvard, he discovered Audrey Bowser, from whose call "The Man of His People" was made. Then followed, "The Man Who Would Be White," from the pen of the same author.
For the cast of these pictures, Mr. Levy selected such players as Edna Morton, Terry Verwayen, Laurence Cheault, C. Edward Brown, Inez Hughes and others. In most cases he discovered that colored people were interested in helping him to carry out his purpose who were not in any way interested in them from a financial standpoint, and cites the fact that Mrs. Leila Walker Wilson, daughter of the late Jack Walker, daughter of the late scenes of "The Call of His People" to be taken at her beautiful home, lvington-on-the-Hudson.
HARRY WILLS IN "BATOCALA"
Apparently Mr. Levy has found his motion picture experiment a success for his future plans contemplate the screening of *Batman* the novel *African Attack* by Rose Marie McRinn, the French Courcourt prize, with Harry Wills in the leading role; all of the filmmable works of Dunbar; Mary White Ovinton's "The Shadow"; Angelina Grimke's "Rachel"; T. S. Stribbling's "Birthright"; H. A. Shands "White and Black"; Clint Cecere "The title of Booker"; W. Washington under the title; "The Leader of His Race."

He is at gt 200 West 128 Street, New York city Mrs. Miller, and would like to hear from friends in the profession. The Page has called upon him and finds him in a serious condition.
Deacon Johnson is very enthusiastic about the support he receives from the office staff of his Players' Exchange. B. Kelly Johnson is the office manager. L. M. Carr librarian; and E. Gilbert Anderson, conducting manager. Little wonder that the general manager and the conductors of a different unit go out to their engagement with staff to care free minds. They have no business cares to complicate the distinctly technical troubles of their calling. That's as it should be.
"The Follow Me Pour", the quartet with the show of that name broadened several song numbers while playing that city recklessly.
Jack Hatton of Brooklyn is organizing a hand for the Prince Hall Masons of that city with headquarters in Ionic Hall, 165 Clermont Only musicians who are Masons will be considered for membership.
Jerry Mills, veteran stage director of the "Follow Me" show is first of all a real actor. When Billy Higgins left the cast of the show without notice in Pittsburgh, Jerry jumped into the star part, and did it so effectively that the Dayton Journal, Herald and Daily News were amputimous in praise of his work and of the show as a whole. The Journal says "It is a show of considerable merit, and quite entertaining." Jerry again proved himself a good showman.
Charles Elgar, the well known Chicago director has transplanted his activities to New York, where he has worked with the Clarence Williams Publishing House in the Gayetey Theater Elgd, and a Harlem office at 236 W. 138th St., with Wendell Walbert. He has a busy may may engagements in 0.5, 5, 7, and 9 artworks with proper instrumentation for any occasion.

On Jan. 8, "Plantation Days" went into the Orpheum Theater, Detroit for a two week's return engagement. They have inaugurated the custom of the Friday Midnight show, and played to a big business on the first of these shows to a largely professional audience. James P. Johnson now has charge of the new school with six critics heartily approve of the new director. Harper and Blanks have the stellar partners, and Eddie Green and the Four Crackerjacks, both recruited from burlesque were important additions. The Michigander" writes that the bloody school "wove up to the final curtain, and it took several encores before the people would leave.

CARNIVAL IN D. C.
By J. A. A. Jackson
The Cardinal Gibbons Institute of Washington, D. C., a national Catholic school, held an indoor carnival at Convention Hall, Jan. 8-13 that was an immense success.
The hall was lined with concessioners and all did a nice business, with Oscar Jenkins being credited with taking money in spite of the fact that he says he was obliged to pay $30 for his privilege, which was more than the price to many others. The children of the school in their uniforms executed drills and a parade; and a vaudeville show was kept going constantly. The pretty girls did a thriving business selling wares with a premium offer of a kiss to be delivered at midnight. The show closed and the girls taken away by chaperons at 1:45 p.m. in Curley, Judge Robert Terrell, Sen. Walsh of Mass, Sen. Ransdell of La., and Secretary Hoover were the speakers, one each night.
Jenkins, by the way, is now operating a jewelry store at 330 Fourth street, N. W., Washington, and hopes to be enlarged to a point where he can supply the 'boys' in the game next season.
Norma Thomas did not stay in retirement long. He with his wife and One-String Willie are three of a quartette who have a new act for the big time. More about it later.
