His parents fear that he has met with a serious accident as he has not been known to leave home before. LIDD SOUTHERN COPS ALWAYS READY TO ARREST US Jail, Hospital, or Morgue Always Yawning for Innocent Colored People 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."

THREATS TO TURN CATHO Chicago, Ill. Jan. 23—Became local M. E. white ministers refute by a vote of 2 to 1 to pass a resolution against the Ku Klux, BJ. W.

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 Boy Missing 31st YEAR, NUMBER 19 COLOR LINE IN INDIA SAME AS UNITED STATES Indian Pastor Explains Rule of 1500 Whites Over 320,000,000 Brown People Even Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. Are Not Open Alike To Both Races (Special to the AFRICAN-AMERICAN Rer. U. R. Gopalak Algar, a Cultural Brother in India) 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 Christianity ceased to be a religion of Christ, when Asia caused to reach it. The whites forget the fact that Christ Jesus was an Asian and if today Christ Jesus, Buddha Abu Daud, a John of theక్షోధి, says in the quran, “Abu Daud, the man who was born in the Quran and died in the Quran, was a Muslim and a Muslim.” Muslimism is still in full and a new and astrologer has predicted that he will be liberated between August and November, 1923. A party of non-co-operators sought to have an interview with the Muslim, but the British Government would not allow any interview. The 47th session of the great Indian National Congress meets on the 25th at Guna in North India. This Congress is a political body of which Mr. Gandhi was made the deserter last year. A large number of political leaders of India have led been convicted and they are on this plea disqualified from entering into Legislative Councils. But non-co-operators follow the doctrine of their leader to boycott all British administered Councils, every, college, schools and articles. The Civil Pisobedience propaganda has already commenced at Salem in the Madras residence, a citizen totally refused to pay his income tax and the British Government attached his lands 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 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. BANK CASE POSTPONED Richmond, Va., Jan. 25.—The case against John Mitchell, Jr., president of the Mechanies Bank, A. V. Norrhead, Jr., cashier, E. A. Norrrell, M. H. Wade and L. D. Pauje, employees of the bank, was postponed Tuesday to February 26th. Reason for the delay is that andi, tons are not finished their report.

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.

Dr. DeSayles told his story freely in the hotel lobby and at the Y. M. C. A., Sunday, where he contributed $25 to the campaign in progress there. According to William H. H. H. H., a former member of the sixteen physicians, who are to come, left some line to be sent to the laundry, departed Monday, and has not been heard of since. He said that the other members of the party were expected Monday, but so far had failed to arrive. All of the physicians, Dr. DeSayres said, were told by the Ku Klux to get out of town. They were given time to dispose of their property, and wind up their business affairs before leaving. 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.

They were given time to wind up their business affairs WE HAD E MONKEYS 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. DEMPSEY'S MANAGER A HARRY WILLS 1. New York, January 24. "We Wills," said Jack Kearns, white, man white, heavyweight champion prize rived here yesterday. "But we this Dempsey ought to have several wills." "We want Wills," said Kearns, the most logical rival for the champion who promises the best bout. Wills. The public wants Dempsey, now Wills. 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.

MIGRATION HITS THE METHODIST CHURCHES HARD PASTORS ALSO LEAVE "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.

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. The only Positive HAIR GROWER and DANDRUFF REMOVER Glover's Impe-Mange Medicine Sold for 35 years.

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."

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 OWNED BY THE BATHROBE APC AMERICAN DOGS CLUB 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. TIBBS STILL MISSING 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. LURED TO YORK, PA. York, Pa., (Special) Jan. 25.—Leaving a wife and sick baby at 939 Cider alley, Baltimore.

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 NOBLE EXONERATED DR. OF MURDER CHARGE DIRT 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.

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.

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."

So when Miss Holland was asked to take some air Saturday night when she visited Drake in his suite at Derry's, she told him a few things. "If I can't come here," she said, "I'll get you looked up," and then she made some loud and unseemless noises that brought up the police. She was looked up at a Northwestern. Seeing that she was the cause of the trouble Judge Ranft fined her $5 and Drake went free. But, goe, she was happy.

Est. 1887 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."

Did You Know That: Noble M. Johnson is the most gored moving picture actor of the race. He has had years of experience, he has been employed by the press, including picture company in the world. In recent years there has been a large increase in the number of Negroes working in factories, warehouses, and in 1910 was 355,180, an increase of 173 per cent. Severiana de Heredia, who held high posts in the French Government was of Negro descent. It is simply verified, not only by the La Rousse Encyclopedia, but by his own family, some of whom still service him. Negroes accompanied William Clark in "Lewis and Clark's Exposition," which in 1840 explored the Missouri River and mined Oregon for the United States. Halif has had 25 presidents since 1903. 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: "His work wasn't finished. He had in mind child labor legislation greater legal it. In my ambition to complete this." 5 Millions A Month Canadian bankers loaned the British. Government .558 million dollars during the war.

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. GEORGE F. BRAGG He Wanted It Tommy, after going to bed, he became thirsty, or thought he did. He called out, "Ma I want a drink." Tommy answered back: Tommy, you go to sleep. 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.

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. Editor OF The North Star 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. His work took him to England, where money was collected to Dearclass published an abolition prior for several years before the War of Saxony, and in 1870 started the New National Era in Washington, D.C. in 1871. He was an emperor and a statesman, in 1872, was a Presidential elector from New York and later became marshal for the District of Columbia, Recorder of Goods in the District, and United States Minister to India. His autobiography is published as *Dearclass* and *Frederick Douglass*. -Naomi, Cook, Dunbar Douglass No. 161, Grade SA. Douglass Real Name Lloyd Frederick Doughass, one of the best known and most noted men of Maryland was born on the day of his birth, 1817. His mother was a slave, and his father a white man, who he never knew. He never saw his mother after he was eight years old. When he tried to find him a man in Baltimore, where he worked at the trade as a shibbuker. Doughass was taught to read by his teacher. His principle books were the Bible and a copy of the Columbian Orator. In September, 1843, having obtained a pass, he left Washington for New York, where he worked as a shibbuker. He was known as Frederick Lloyd, his real name. He changed his name to Frederick Doughass, in order to keep from being detected, caught, and returned. He soon left New York, going to Beldorf, Mass. Here he worked around the wheel as a commissioner of the church, and a greater worker. In the church, and was licensed as a local preacher in the African church.

The other kid contended that all he wanted was a chance and 'I'll run it black as I is.' "THE MAN WHO WOULD BE WHITE!" --- SYNOPSIS—NELSON HOLMES, a right-elected Nyeon, was born and reared in California. At the age of twenty-two, he left home to turn and come to New York. Beginning as a studio artist and studio, he became sales manager of the Lama Coffee Company. To friends, associates and employer, Holmes was believed to be white. Arriving home from his Will, street office one night, he saw a beautiful yellow coloured girl being pursued by three drunken southern white satirist. Their importation insults, Holmes offers to accompany the girl to the subway, but she refuses. "Shall I ever ever see you again?" he sighs. But the girl wore home and Holmes fell a lifeline for the girl and his race. One more moment and he were confessed to her. Holmes later the president of the Lama Coffee Company raised Holmes' salary from ten to twelve thousand dollars. CHAPTER SIX 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 AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 26, 1923 BLASS, Druggist 408-410 North Gay Street, Baltimore, Md.

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.

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.

Instead get from any drugsthist a few ounces of Bismarcal Magnesium and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eating.

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. When "jim-crow" cars were first introduced in Maryland Captain George W. Brown, employed as en- First colored person to be recognized a Steamboat Captain in the State of Maryland. engineer for a firm was sent out with four white helpers to do a job on the Eastern First boat ever used on the 250 persons.

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. Captain Brown was the man behind the have been made lately both for prise here and other cities and New York, Wa well as Richmo men and final made him tempt STEAMER STARLIGHT NUMBER ONE With passenger capacity movement. THE FERRY Notwithstanding the fact that this first venture cost the Captain every penny he had been able to save up to this period of his life, he stuck to it and in 1907 without a penny of money he and Mr. Walter R. Langley mortgaged a all of their ```markdown ``` 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. Today he has the same ting his enter- work. Such had when his could never be used as he rode trained by co- min crow car, white boats.

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 could never have been ob- tained by colored men on white boats. All told there a capacity of 250 persons share about 50 employees re- ceiving salaries that reach as high as $150 monthly. 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. Future of Enterprises With People THE STREET CAFE 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- STEAMER STARLIGHT—NUMBER THREE --- ored men were allowed likept as an asset of the race. He wants it to continue its financial aid to needy colored institutions and to provide a decent pleasure ground for young men and women. 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- A. B.

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."

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. Nearly finished Central Elementary and High School at Lincoln Md.

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.

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.

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. SOUTH HATES NEW YORKER While extinguing an appetizing South breakfast on a Sunday morning an S O S reneched, he to aid in extir- cating from the meshes of the law two members of a Negro theatrical company sent from New York to tour the South. One of the Thespians was languishing in a suburban ban jail some miles away. The other had succeeded in seuring temporary release by putting up as bail his gold watch and chain plus some cash. 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. $100 IS REQUIRED 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.

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. DON'T LET "FLU OR PNEU- MONIA DEVELOP."

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.

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? J. W.

In the country, one morning Aunt Sallie was after a rabbit. Uncle Tom came along as usual. Aunt Sallie couldn't hear well. Uncle Tom: "Good morning Aunt Sallie. Aunt Sallie: "Rabbit." Uncle Tom: "How you feel Aunt Sallie?" Aunt Sallie: "In hollow log." Uncle Tom: "Good by, Aunt Sallie." Aunt Sallie: "Just begun to feel his tail." "Are you getting wet?" Stranger: "No. I am walking between the drops to keep from getting wet." A New Trump Dusty: "I can spell bum with two letters." Rhodes: "Let me hear you." Dusty: "B M—bum."

Cold tea rubbed on carmished furniture will give it a brilliant polish. To remove ink stains while fresh, sprinkle with salt and rub with a cut lemon. Rinse out the lemon and wash at once. If hot stewed fruit is to be served in a glass dish, place the dish on a damp cloth and it will not crack when the fruit is poured into 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.

ELLA WHEELER WILCON 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.

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."

IT SEEMS TO ME Looks like Jack Dempsey will soon have to fight right Wilts or go to work. All the "soft" ones that he calculated on meeting in the near future for one reason or another have been put out of the running. First there was talk of another match between him and Willard, but fans have protested so strongly against who would be the greatest that they banded out, that it is almost a certainty that the match will never take place. Then came word that a nicely sum of something like a quarter of a million "jack" rocks could be his for facing Joe Beckett. But the English have put their foot down on this match. Still there was Tom Gibbons, anxious to see what he could do to the company, but the National Golf Commission will not allow this bout, as Gibbons is too small. In the meantime, Mistah Harry is pitching freight on the New York deck and saying nothing. DERBY MAY 19 The Associated Negro Press Louisville, Ky., Jan. 24—The forty-fifth Kentucky Derby will be run on May 18th, according to an announcement made at the board of directors of the Kentucky Jockey Club. May 19th is the latest date for the Kentucky Derby since the classic stake was established. The Derby usually has been run during the early part of the day, and always at the opening day of the meeting at the Downs. Thousands of colored visitors attend the Derby.

THE NEW YORK BOXING COMMISSION HAS REFUSED TO LET TOMMY GIBRONS, WHITE, FIGHT JACK, DEMPSY FOR THE CROWN, CHAIRMAN MULDON SAID; "TOMMY, YOU ARE TOO LIGHT, THERE ARE SOME GOOD PELLOWS IN YOUR CLASS, AND AFTER YOU LICK THEM THERE ARE SOME HEAVYWEIGHTS LIKE HARRY WILLS AND JESS WILLIARD YOU COULD MEET." Colonel Washington Bowle is said to have given the Fifth Regiment Armory to the John Hopkins University games last year only on condition that no colored athletes may enter. Willie Ritola made a new worlds indoor record at the Northham games in New York Friday night. His time for four miles, was 19 min, 15.5 l. The Finn ran three miles in 1 minute, 52 sec. David Hopkins will face Ritola in the Milwaukee olympics January 31. Earth's best time for 4 miles is 15 min, 50 sec. Looks like Earl will have to go some to heat Willie. Hopkins runners will however have to face Nero athletes in the Penn relays or stay home. What's more Howard and Lincoln will run Hopkins off their feet. There will also be another feature of the Penn Belous, Newton, of Florida University, or better said, Cracker University, will enter the broad jump. "Nort" has done 12 Ft. 9½ in. In that some crew will be the dusky youth, retired Hubbard, of University of Michigan, the champion of America, with a record of 14 Ft. 6½ in. Two things made Jack Johnson famous as a boxer, one of them was his right hand uppercut. Lil Arthur sent that short, upward thrust home faster than any other boxer the ring has ever known and when I had the position matrically immediately in a vivid course in astronomy with sweet singing birds warbling outside the classroom so as to make the study that much more delightful. The other was his defensive system, plucking blows from the air as nonchalantly as another might, grasp a peach from a branch, Johnson had an uncanny ability to know that a blow was coming before it had started and to stop the thrust before it could become dangerous. Instead of taking blows on his arms he stopped them with his huge hands, often making his opponent arm-weary with five or six rounds of such annoying nails. Horsesover, Baltimore's own Joe Janssus was the headliest boss of them all, the greatest lightweight, and one who stood out chiefly because of his marvelous ability for straight thinking during the stiffest kind of a physical battle. Gans "worked" his man into forceable positions for the knockout blow. He studied his opponent, defending himself well during himself well period t. lw. lw. this period of studious thought and discovered his opponent's weakness. Having made the discovery he reali in to hammer at that spot until the victory he sought come. In case the Governor, Col. Bowie, and General Reckord find that their prejudice will not allow the colored school children to use the Fifth Regiment Armory one whole day for their indoor athletic meet, what is the matter with the Public Athletic League graciously dividing up the date it already has, giving the colored children the morning and the white children the afternoon and Or give the white children morning and afternoon and give us the night. What we want is a place to hold athletics. COLLEGE OBJECTS TO ROBESON BOXING Foster Sanford and others who are interested in athletics at Rutgers College will take steps to scout the reported ambition of Paul Roberson to enter the boxing ring and challenge Harry Wills and other pugilists for the heavyweight supremacy. Almost everyone has heard of Roberson, the giant, who played football for four years at Rutgers, starred at basketball and at the same time managed to stand at the head of all his classes. Standing six feet three inches in his stocking feet, fit and hard at 225 pounds, Robey was in every respect a wonderful athlete. Few men who ever attended Rutgers had his acquisitive powers and he was graduated with the highest honors his college could give him. He was also able to take some radical step whereby he may earn money for his wife and children. He is a lawyer by profession but his practice has fallen short of paying office rent.—Philia Rutlett. EASTERN MAGNATES IN POW-WOW Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 23—The Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs held another important confab at the "Y" building Saturday. Chairman Bolden issued the call and the result was a full quota of the Association's board of Commissioners; James Jackson of the Bachman Giants; James A. Keehn of the Lincoln Giants; Charles Sox; Alexander Pompez of the Cuban Stars; Nac C. Strong of the Brooklyn Royal Giants and Edward Bolden of the Hildale Club, comprised the board. The problem of drafting a well balanced schedule is a matter of much concern to the Eastern moguls with this in view a committee has been appointed to effect a layout that will be advantageous to all HUBBARD TO ENTER PENN RELAY GAMES Michigan's Colored Kanga- roo Who Beat Gourdin Coming East Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 23—Albough invitations for the University of Pennsylvania's annual relay carnival, to be held at Franklin Field on Friday and Saturday, April 27 and 28, were sent out only a week ago, nearly fifty colleges have forwarded their entries. Colored track followers are especially interested in Michigan's entry, because Coughlin Hubbard will bring on Hubbard his great broad-jumper Hubbard, who reported to him a year ago, a finely-built colored athlete. He told Farrell that he wanted to try for the track team. Farrell asked him what he desired to try, as he had never met him before. "I want to try for the sprints and the broad jump," replied Hubbard. Farrell, never having heard of the youngster, turned away, but Hubbard, following him up, exclaimed: "I did that. Gourdin of Harvard juried." "Oh, just a little over 25 feet," replied Farrell. That makes it all the harder," said Hubbard as he turned away. Farrell soon found that Hubbard was a regular kangaroo in the jumping game. Before the indoor season was over he cleared 24 feet 6 inches in the gymnasium, and last Fall he won the American broad jump championship on a rather bad day leaping 24 feet, 6 inches, heating the world's champion, courting the prize of new Hubbard is out for a new record in the broad jump in the coming relay carnival.

MORGAN GIRLS QUINT TRIM CAMPFIRE GIRLS Community House Lassies Fall To Withstand Attack Of More Experienced Opponent And Losts "One swallow doesn't make a summer," but one player, sometimes makes a winning team. The Morgan College girls' basket ball team defeated the Campfire Girls hard-fought game 16 to 4. Friday night at the Community House largely thru the efforts of Captain Oufut. Captain Oufutt was the surr tosser of her team, caging six haskets from the outlying territory and two from the four line in six attempts. Besides this, she was the center of the aggressiveness of her team. Forward Thomas and Guard Naylor also did some good work for the Hilton mids. The outstanding players of the Campfire girls were Center Parker who besides her fast work in the mix-ups on the field shot four foul goals out of six attempts; the fast forward work of T. Carr and some deadly guarding by E. Carr. Campfire girls were unable to shoot a single field goal. A fair sized gallery witnessed the contest. Line up: Morgan (16) Campfire (5) Carter . R. F.

In all probability the curtain will be raised on or about April 28th, when the clubs that play at home on Sat- rday's will open up, while the clubs that stage Sunday engag- ments will get going the following day. Realizing that arbitration is one of the most essential factors in maintaining a first class brand of baseball and absolutely necessary to gain the confidence of the public, the Commissioners are determined that this phase of the game shall be thoroughly covered by having competent, unbiased unpires to officiate in all games. To under the direct jurisdiction of the this end all arbitrators will come Commissioners and also be vested with authority to run the games without molestation from players or managers. WHAT DESCHAMPS SAID The Associated Nurse Press Paris, France, Jan. 24—Some of the details of the investigation by the French hosting association in connection with the Ski frame-up charges in the carpenter bout have just announced. They are complete in exonerating Georges Descamps, Ski and his manager, Hellers. The lireading de-mutes who viewed the films reported that Hellers was crying frantically to Ski: "Finish him! You've got him! Kill him!" When Descamps rushed into Ski's corner and apparently shouted something to Hellers, the de-mutes read his words as: "Your mouth, Hellers!" or French shang meaning "Shut up!" the older man shows that fiddle boxer at the ringside had declared Desgems yelled: "You are crazy, Hellers!" implying that Hellers was not keeping the allied agreement. The report, however, shows that Galliard, when called on to testify, denied making such a statement. The report also declares that the federation is convinced Descamps did not realize how far into Sikh's corner he had gone so engrossed was he in shouting encouragement to Georges. FAMOUS ROUNDS OF FAMOUS BATTLES JOHNSON-KETCHEL On Oct. 10, 1909, at Colma, Calf,Jack Johnson (colored) defeated Stanley Ketchel in the twelfth Round. Johnson outpointed Ketchel in the majority of the rounds, but Ketchel was always boring in, swinging right and left, with no great damage until the twelfth. ROUND 12 Johnson stabbed Ketchel with two straight hits. Ketchel stopped in landing left to head. Johnson partly blocking it. Johnson stopped back as Ketchel started after him. Jack landed straight left to Stanley's face. Ketchel brushed it aside and at the same time swung a hard left from the floor, landing on the back part of Jack's jaw. Down he went on his back and rolled over, the referee counting four. When Jack got on his feet Ketchel more after him wide open and struck him. Johnson stuck out a straight left and brought up a terrific right hand uppercut on the point of Stanley's chin. Ketchel dropped like dead and was counted out. Johnson weighed 218. Ketche 167. IN THE AFRO BASKETBALL LEAGUE TO PLAY FIRST GAME WEDNESDAY The "Siki's" is the name of the basketball team formed under the management of Mr. Barry Dobney, to take the place of the Tri Mus, in the Argo Basketball League; will play their first game when they line up against the BOLDEN REPLIES TO CHARGES OF RUBE FOSTER Chairman of Eastern Baseball Association Turns Light on Western Baseball Czar's Methods HAS WHITE BOSS Philadelphia, Jan. 24—Tuehe Foster's charges that Edward Balden, manager of the Hildales, forced every team which played the Hildales to pay him a huge percentage, and while making thousands of dollars out of colored ball teams for the past twenty years, has "nurve built a back fence to enclose a ball park and never will" drew a retort from Mr. Balden this week. In part Mr. Balden says: "Why does Mr. Foster not publish the fact that Scholling Park and the American Giants are property of John Scholling, for whom the park is named, and Foster is but a chatel of his white boss? "Why does Mr. Foster not publish the fact that the secretaryship of the Western Association is held by Mr. Wilkinson, who is one of the opposite ruses." "Why does he not publish the fact that the Mr. Strong, whom he now seeks to hold up as a target, has letters from Mr. Foster entertaining him to connect with the Western Association, because of his known financial resources?" Then statistician Robert J. 11-24-23 and Mr. Strong were the only recognized leaders in Negro baseball." DUAL ROLE ATTEMPTED BY WESTERN MONARCH "Again, Mr. Foster assists the fact that Mr. Strong operates a booking agency, which many are cognizant of and know it as a legitimate business, but we have never paid Mr. Strong one cent for booking the Hildale Club. Why does Mr. Foster not publish the fact that he philages every club in the Western Association for 5 per cent of their gross earnings? Why does he not publish the fact that Hildale Club paid him percentage for all clubs that come East, at the same time he earned the Western club a percentage despite their heavy expenses, a prudent unbuddah of in the number of bookings?" "The situation in the West is such that a number of clubs are dependent upon 'Chicago, because of the Sunday games that they play at that city and hence must submit to the gouging tactics of the Foster regime, that are just as repulsive to them, but the situation is such that they must accept his terms." PLAY TO EMPTY BENCHES "Our club is too big to pay percentage for bookings, this being one of our chief reasons for resigning from the Western Association. His Sunday games in the West don't mean anything to us, as we have received more money for a twelfth engagement in the West than for the players' walk to the park, the players' game in the West, with over a thousand miles railroad fare to cover? Why does Mr. Tester not speak of the mid-week games in Chicago and Detroit, with the clubs playing to empty benches?" "Why does Mr. Foster seek to cover the fact that the By-Laws of the Western Association make provisions for the visiting club to receive 35 per cent of the gross receipts, yet the Eastern clubs (Bacharach Gits, and Hillebale) were forced to pay 40 per cent to all Western clubs, with the exception of the American Gits, that exacted 50 per cent, while the Bacharach Giants and Hillebale received only 35 per cent in the West, and 5 per cent of this was taken by the self-appointed Czar. ILLEGALLY ATTEMPTS TO HOLD THE BASE IN HILL. BAPE BAPE "Why does Mr. Foster not publish how many clubs in the Western Association operated without placing their $1,000, yet he would seek to defraud Hilldale of their $1,000 after they have fulfilled all obligations in the Western Association? Why does he not make known how many clubs beside Hilldale, including the American Giants, have put up their $1,000, these are facts that Foster will not give out, and if he does they will be of a libelous nature. What kind of an association can he run on the level with one meeting a year, one man to make up a schedule for ten clubs and juggle it to suit his own interest, one man heading an organization and holding the strings to its course?" NEW ASSOCIATION TO BENEFIT EASTERN FANS "The owners of Eastern clubs are more than able to take care of the situation in their territory. The Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs, has been organized with the intent of giving the fans better baseball, this public will decide the coming season. The Western Association could offer us no benefits, no protection, we followed the only course that is sagacious one would pursue and resigned. The East is responsible for the success of our club and all others in our organization; the West is beyond our jurisdiction." BALTO. "Y" vs WASH.

HILLDALE DROPS PLAYERS HILLDALE DROPS PLAYERS John Henry Lloyd Signed To Manage Crack Philly Team John H. Lloyd, the veteran shortstop, and one of the greatest players in baseball today, will pilot Hilldale in 1923. In Lloyd as certain Hilldale will have a man who has initiative, and executive ability, and believes in strict discipline tacked up by baskets. John Henry Lloyd, who at this writing, is hitting at an average of 47 in the Cuban Winter League, will bring a few boys home who have been wintering "North Cuba's Sunny Skies." Downs, Francis, White, Haynes, Gillespie, and Richardson were dropped in the shake-up, and some new men will be seen in Hilldale uniforms in an effort to cop the pennant of the new Eastern Colored League.

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.

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.

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. rations e same time "" urations States and D they do. PORO Corner 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.

The Journal says "It is a show of considerable merit, and quite entertaining." Jerry again proved himself a good showman.

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.

WILL FIGHT FOR 50G WAGE FOR WORKERS Colored Men Are Urged to Join American Federation in Campaign for Better Pay IMMIGRATION IS OPPOSED Organizer Says Capitalists Would Flood Country to Keep Wages Down Stating that the Baltimore division of the American Federation of Labor is planning to inaugurate a movement for a wage minimum of 50 cents per hour for all common labor in the building trades and commuting for better labor conditions, 14, Shireo, National Organizer for the American Federation of Labor, at a meeting of Colored Local No. 644, of the Hod Carriers and Common Laborers at their hall on Myrtle Avenue last Sunday urged the men to see that the three, more thousand colored workers joined the movement. The meeting was one of a series of mass-meetings being held to promote organization work among colored workers of this class, and was conducted also by a number of workers. Mr. Shaire stated during the course of his remarks that for some reason the colored people of Baltimore are standing in their own light in the matter of Union Labor. Time was, he stated, when the accusation was that white union men did not cooperate with their colored brothers. Now the condition is reversed and it is the colored man that seems to hold off from the only weapon that has proven effective in the last 28 years in making better working and wage condition. "We need the cooperation of the colored workers, and the colored workers to cooperate with the cooperation of their white brothers. Their problems have ingored into all and they join hands in the common bond. SAYS CAPITALISTS FAN PACIFIC PREVIEUCE "While it is a fact that there is a large class of fair and honest employees of labor, there is still a group who spend large sums in propaganda to fan the flames of social hatred to keep the workers of different races apart. They know that as soon as all workers see that they will use this organization (armed) to chase which hold them in economic slavery. They have been mostly responsible for the propaganda they come to the white group them not to join with colored men and that which comes to the colored men prejudging them against the good intentions of the white workers. But both races now see that this light must be made to together." RAPS IMMIGRATION THREAT Mr. Shairo also criticized the proposed immigration law laying down the bars and terminated it a plan of large employers of labor to provide two men for each job in this country in order that they may dictate wages and working condition. Baltimore loses the lowest wage scale for common laborers that any city of size in this section has always a large supply of labor here. But even with this law, simply living wages would be the prilie of the workers who properly organized. No industry should be allowed to do that cannot pay a decent wage. No industry should be allowed to exist that can and won't pay a decent wages", he said. COMMON WAGE TOO LOW During the meeting men in the gathering were asked how they faced on the present wages they received. A number of people that get along it was necessary for them who are unable only 35 cents per hour to do without many of the necessities of life, including food and clothing. It was also stated by one of the listeners that there was an effort being made to even lower the present wage scale. This condition in the building trade was contrasted with the condition of stevedores, a 100 per cent organized group and who receive a 60 per cent hour wage. It was pointed out that as soon as all the workers in the building trades organize, it would be possible to obtain for the same condition of wages. Mass-meetings to which all laborers are invited have been planned for Friday night, January 26th, and Sunday afternoon, January 28th, at 1221 Myrli avenue. HOME HOURS: 7 to 9 P. M.

According to the story told by Mrs. Lizzie Adams No. 1, she met the Rev. Mr. Adams in Ashbury Park in 1911, and after a whirlwind courtship he proposed and led her to the altar in Philadelphia. At that time she stated she was "well fixed" and the minister did not even have to provide her the ripple in their marriage life came, she stated, when two years after they were married her husband received a telegram stating that "his sister was dead" and he left "to attend the funeral." This telegram, she said, was a fake. A similar telegram calling him to the "death of a brother" in Philadelphia turned out to be the same kind of an affair. But they lived on together until in 1971 she herself was called away by death in the family. When she returned from this trip, she declared her husband discharged with all of the household behaviors. Three weeks following this deserion she continued the Reverend married another Miss "Lizzie," this time Miss Lizzie Holiday of Baltimore. It was not, however, until recently that Mrs. Lizzie No. 1 heard that he had told Mrs. Lizzie No. 2 that he had never been lawfully married before. Wife No. 1 "get sizzling mud" and brought the person into court. GETS COPY OF LICENSE First she went to Philadelphia, and obtained a certified copy of the marriage license, and then she came to Baltimore and got a similar copy of the marriage with Mrs. Adams No. 2. These papers were exhibited at the trial. Although the Rev. Adams did not take the stand in his own defense, the cross-examination conducted by his attorneys indicated that his defense would be that he was not really married to Mrs. Lizzie Adams The Rey, Joseph Perry, who performed the wedding ceremony of Rey, Mr. Adams with wife No. 2, came from Virginia to testify.
