THO WED. SLAYS FALSE LOVER WOMAN FOUND BURIED IN HER OWN CELLAR Eight Prominent New Yorkers File Lengthy Document With Attorney Gen. Daugherty Garvey Organization Called More Dangerous Than the Ku Klux Klan Washington, D. C., Feb. 1 (Special)—In typewritten document of six pages, eight prominent New Yorkers urged Attorney General Dearborn to disband and extirpate the Garvey Movement and speedily push the case against Marcus Garvey for using the mails to defraud. Aborted January 15th, the document was made public only today. Signers include Harry Pace, photograph manufacturer; Robert S. Abba, editor of the Chicago Defender; John E. Nail, real estate dealer; Dr. Julia P. Coleman, head of a local chemical company; William Pickens and Robt. W. Baughn, secretaries of the N. A. A. C. P.; Alderman George Harris, editor of the New York News, and Chandler Owen, editor Messenger Magazine, who signed as secretary. MORE DANGEROUS THAN K. K. K. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is referred to as composed of the "ignorant and criminal element of West Indian and American Negroes—for the most part nonceil and unnaturalized—as objectionable and more dangerous than the Ku Klux Klan, because it attracts a bossy and bigoted crowd and a bigotry. Despite claims, membership in the organization is declared to be "not more than 20,000." Marus Garvey, head of the association, is declared to be "an unsusceptible demagogue who has closely sought to spread among Negroes distrust and hatred of all white people. Evidence has also been presented of an alliance of Garvey with the Ku Klux Klan." CRIME Article 3, section 5, of the U. N. X. A, is cited to prove that the fun,imental law of the organization involves and condones crime. It reads: "No one shall be received by the Potentate and his consort who has been conceived of felony, except such crime or felony was committed in the interest of the Universal Negro Improvement Association or the African Communities League." William Sherill, Curvey official, is quoted as saying in the Goldfield Act as well as white who tamer with the U. N. X. A, are going to die." ACTS OF VIOLENCE CITED Thirteen acts of violence committed in the past two years are cited as evidence of the manner in which the U. N. X. A, encourages crime: New York New York--Attack of Garveyites upon Rev. A. Chyton Powell and Dr. Charles M. Morris at an evangelical meeting averted by police Garveyites present meeting addressed by Cyril V. Briggs, in Rush Memorial Church by turning out lights. Meetings of Friends of Negro Free Press averted by police from Garveyites, who threatened speakers with death. Baltimore Baltimore—W.

THO WOMAN KELLY MILLER STATES PLANS OF CONFERENCE Response To His Call for a Nation-Wide "Negro Sanhedrin" Has Been Spontaneous DR. MOTON TO CONFER Will Meet With Dean Miller To Discuss Gathering This Week Concerning Kelly Miller's proposed Alte-Segro Conference, Dr. R. M. Muton, head of Tuskegee, wrote the "AFRICAN AMERICAN" this week: "I have been in correspondence with Kelly Miller conference and am planning to confer with him on the subject within the next week or ten days." Washington, D. C., Feb. 1.-My suggestion for an all-race conference has met with nation-wide response. It is unanimously agreed that such a conference is not only important, but imperative. The proposition elicits immediate and spontaneous reaction. I claim no originality or special credit for proclaiming the suggestion of a Negro Sanbedrin. When the cloud is surcharged with electricity, the flash may break out at any point. I have merely expressed the general feeling not before sufficiently focused in definite form of statement. Enthusistic supporters of the idea declare that it was already floating in their minds without form—and void. Indeed it had already received implicit or explicit expression in sunday, partial ways. The National Race Congress but felt the need and uttered it. TheEqual Rights League had already sent out invitations to the several Civil Rights organizations, including the N. A. C. P. The National Race Congress, and the Blood Brotherhood, for a joint meeting and united action. Seventeen secret and fragrant orders were contemplating similar procedure. MILLER'S PLAN DIFFERENT My suggestion differs from the others only in the comprehensiveness of its range and scope. I would have the conference take into consideration, "the state of the race," involving the entire circle ofests pertinent and particular to our group, and its relations to the larger social entity in which it is sub The national race movements hitherto have limited their attention to some particular pressing and dis-tressing features of the problem. The dynamic power of politics has been the chief reliance. These conferences have spilt on the rock on which they were founded. The political agency must boom large in any effective race program, but the subject must be approached in the spirit of comprehensive race statesmanship, and not of personal and partisan manipulation. Politics forms but a single factor of the race is of primary importance to of the aside from its external relation to the environing white world. The statesman-like attitude will not allow itself to become excited over any single distressing factor, but views the whole problem with sobriety of temper and deliberate use of judgment. of JOHNSON SANHEDRIN OF JEWES Napoleon Bonaparte suggested Sanhedrin of the Jews of Europe in 1807.

MIGRATION HITS AUTOMOBILE CITY: CHICAGO AWAITS SPRING DRIVE Detroit Urban Leag'e Head Says Northward Movement Has Never Before Been So Large During the Winter Months Detroit, Mich., Feb. 1.—A steady influx of Southern Negroes to this big automobile manufacturing city has been going on all during the winter, according to John C. Daney, director of the Detroit Urban League. George R. Arthur, former Baltimore and executive secretary of the Chicago Y. M. C. A., reports that the migration of colored workers to Chicago has been small during the winter, but that large numbers are expected during the spring. Mr. Daney's statement to the Afro-American is as follows: "We have found a steady influx of African-American winter. This is unusual; beforetofore, they have not come in such large numbers during the winter months. "I am inclined to believe that when spring comes, the migration here will be tremendous. Geor- GUILTY 20-Year-Old Girl Convicted Of Murdering Father Father After deliberating for nearly an hour a jury brought in a verdict of guilty of manslaughter with recommendations for mercy in the case of Isabella Hayward, aged 20, of Hamlet, N. C., who on the afternoon of December 3rd shot and wounded her father, Thomas Hayward, 1153 N. Mount stout. The crime for which the girl was convicted occurred at the culmination of a visit she was making here, after 16 years absence from her father. An argument and alleged attempt of Hayward to strike her with a chair was the cause of the shooting according to the story of the girl. Her sentence, been suspended as attorney, Roy Bond, is making an effort to have her paroled and, sent back home. In her testimony Mrs. Barentine accused her father of incest and of using undue force to keep her from returning to her husband. gia, Alabama, Tennessee and Mississippi are the States that are mostly represented by this inflow." CHICAGO AWAITS SPRING DRIVE George R. Arthur, executive secretary of the Chicago Y. M. C. A. made the following statement to the Aero-American: "believe there has been more movement of Negroes from one Northern city to another, than any noticeably large numbers coming from the South, as far as Chicago is concerned." "My understanding is that there is to be a migration of considerable size this spring as there are forces at work in the South looking toward the East. Large industries in the North will need more common labor during this spring and summer months than will be available in the Northern States. "I do not know where this common labor is to come from except through migration. The seasonable occupation such that in Detroit, Michigan and in certain points, will provide a certain number, but not nearly the number that will be needed." (Signal). George R. Arthur."

The third picture of INJUNCTION GRANTED BARS FAMILY FROM BOLTON ST. DWELLING New Form of Segregation Measure Attempted by Whites In Northwestern Section In a fight to bar colored people forever from that neighborhood bounded by Eutaw, Place, Mt. Royal Avenue, Dolphin Street and Lafayette Avenue, two injunctions have been obtained in Circuit Court No. 2, the second of which was signed by Judge Duke Bond, Wednesday temporarily restraining Mr. and Mrs. Matthew Willis from occupying the premises at 1207 Bolton street.' Some time ago Mr. and Mrs. Willis obtained for residence purposes the property at 1209 Bolton street but was prevented by injunction from moving into this property. This injunction was obtained by Mrs. Ida M. Ball. Following this they obtained use of the property at 1207 which is owned by Joseph and Freda Kimmel and were preparing to move in when the injunction in amended form was signed by Judge Bond. The injunction is based on an agreement entered into in 1919 by the Neighborhood, Corporation and sets out that in the neighborhood bounded by the above streets no property shall ever be sold, rented or otherwise owned by Negroes or person having African roots. It, however, allows white residents; to permit servants in their employ to occupy parts of the premises for whom they are employed. Since this agreement some of the property has changed ownership and it is this property belonging to new owners which is in litigation. Those signing the original agreement are J. Seymour, T. Walters, Atty, Joseph C. France, Franklin Hazelmour, Dr. James D. Iglehart, Dr. James C. Smith, Yates Sterling, Ellen S. Sterling, Eliza L. Littell, Emily B. Whitley, Turnbull Murdock, R.

Unfolded before the corporation of a good girl, happily married bury was the story of a good girl, happily married for ten years until a gay and irresponsible lover camped upon the scene. For him she deserved her husband family, traveling the "primrose path," until he wrecked her happiness, and lost her to commit the crime for which she now stands in the shadow of the gallows. REPORTED CRIME HERSELF The first knowledge police had of the crime was given by Mrs. Rollins herself when she told officers she found Jenkins lying dead on the kitchen floor and that he had been denty been shot. Further knowledge of the crime was confession stating that they quarrelled and Jenkins was shot in a tussle for the possession of the revolver. Mrs. Mary Gaddis, 17 Smith street, testified in effect as follows: "Mrs. Rollins came to my house about 11:30 Saturday night. I told her that Jenkins, who is called 'Sweet Boy' in the community, had made certain advances to me. I said I would repeat his words in the presence of both of them and we two went out to look for him. "We made the people of several soft drink places until after 1 a.m. when they came in, and then we went home. We found him. I went to the kitchen and Mrs. Rollins and Jenkins went into the bedroom." STAGGEELED INTO NETWORK. A few minutes later Jenkins staggered out into the kitchen and fell on the floor. I did not hear the report of the news and thought Mr. Rolls ill from some cause. Then Mrs. Rolls entered, we examined Jenkins and both left the place. "I did not know," she continued, "that the man had been shut until told by the police afterwards. When Mrs. Rolls left me she stated that she was going back to her mother's home and spend the night and gave me a revolver. I found at my home beneath the mattress at the foot of the bed by officers later Sunday. Mrs. Rolls was offered with jealousy when I told her what "Sweet Boy" had said to me. She stated that she would get him if he admitted it. HUSBAND STICKS BY HER NOW Interviews with the husband, brothers and sister of the Mrs. Rolls brought out the fact that she had been once a good girl and had a devoted steady husband who has been employed at one place for more than twenty years. Shortly before the tragedy she had promised him to come back home and had been prevented from doing so only because of her fear the doll, who seemed to hold her completely in his power.

Fervent "among" greeted his assertion, the pastor, "ask us to believe in the molecular theory. None of them have seen a molecule and we are obliged to take it on faith in the same way, there are no reasons to take it on faith. If I would not believe that the source of our faith was able to do such a simple unsuspecting think of walking upon the earth, I would get out of the mind."

Members of the Tapirimore Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. Friends:— Never was a time when the so-called colored people of this world needed to organize and use organzers to length more than they do now. Huge success was being invested by our capitalists in where colored people live. Their land and labor are being exploited and the people in many of these places are gradually being reduced to soils. In this country our people are under the beats of burden. To keep them a ready, willing source of cheap labor, all manner of policies are employed, by the dominating classes in America. Negroes are told and taught, made them inferior, permanently soiled to white people. The greatest religious principles, those of Christianity, are perverted to mean that the colored people should welcome gains, poverty, long sufferings. Glory and many important short-sighted preachers and teachers over the pulpit and in the class-room, carry on the enemies' propaganda. In order to keep white labor from joining with Negro labor the most bitter prejudice is kept alive. The all-powerful press develops, the optimistic populists, that social equality by force is what they want, that racial purity is entangled, and so on. They do not print that more white men were convicted for rape in the boroughs of the city of New York than all over the country. They have considered that racial purity and social equality were involved in the social intimacy that brought about millions of light colored people in this country and the world, and that the promise of official prominence of white males. You have just witnessed the impotency of the Government so far as it desires or is able to pass laws to prevent the murder by mob prosecution, the civilized history except when civilization was ending throes of disruption have scenes be enacted like into the burnings and worse than criminalistic orgies infilged in by the racial purity and high types of cream of Southern aristocracy. The Dyer Bill may have failed to pass but it has not failed in its mission in the eyes of the Japanese, the French, the Germans and Europeans. We who have our laws against arson, murder, cruelty to insects, birds and beasts, with our red cross, far East reliefs, missionaries, and societies to render aid to the Japanese. We Armenians might to drop our hypocritical, mock-religious professions and clean up the horrible stinking 'ulcer in our own body-politics that tends to make American an unplace for real Christians to live in. Every home in Baltimore should be receiving the Crisis each month. You cannot know the world as it is, but you can know what American printed in most white newspapers, nor can you know what you should from the wide-managed opinions voiced by the big talkers all about, who often know and understand cited by men and women who are efficient and who have the ways and means of getting news and have the brains to interpret it to you and me. It will cost $1.50 a year, and, too, it and membership are largely responsible for the splendid progressiveness attitude in matters of good citizenship on the part of so many of our people in Baltimore. Pay little attention to the organization knackers about you. Analyze their motives and find in them an opposition personal hatred of individuals actively identified with the N. A. A. C. P., a desire to pussy-foot, an overwhelming belief that made "white" mean good and all-powerful, well they are, and meet the world necessary influences to make the organization effective. Friends, let us not sink in our minds. If the N. A. A. C. P. in your opinion does not represent what it should, come on in and help me in the most powerful battle for our full manhood rights.

This Opportunity VISIT Y HALL near Mosher afternoon at 3 O'clock FORUM the public of Baltimore titting a subject for discuss (Vaudeville and Pictures) >Five high grade vaudeville turns comprise the stage attraction at the Regent this week, namely; the Gibson, Trio, featuring Corinne the eight-year-old star; the Strayhorn Kids (John and Margaret) Walter Richardson, lyric tenor; Ralph Demund's Versatile Four and Charles Lacy "white", in a bicycle act. Large audiences witnessed the opening on Monday. The Strayhorns opened the bill with a skit entitled "The Bellboy and the Maid" the girl neatly attired in a mids outfit with the linen trimmings fresh and clean the balloon outfit of red cloth with cap to match. Their skirtopsis chiefly of dancing at which both are very clever. Lacy takes the second spot with a bicycle turn of usual tricks adding a bit of novelty as a finish by playing the violin while riding a single wheel. He drew a good hand. Richardson scored heavily with his song numbers. His voice was strong and his "style." His rendition of "My Buddy" won an encore and two bows. DeMund's Versatile Four comprised of DeMund, Edan Adams, Marion Davis and Jessie Crawford, offered a song and dance turn that went over finely as the result of the work of the girls. They are very young and very pretty to the closest eye, some of the cleverest dance seen there for some time. Edna Adams featured with three song numbers very well rendered. DeMund also was well-received for two song renditions. "The *riot* of the bill however is the Gibson Trio, or more correctly "quarter" which closed. This act is well-known to local theatrogroups and has been the "wonder-child" of the "little circuits" for several years. She has now almost reached the stage of finished perfection insofar as dancing is concerned, and is rapidly acquiring a sense of real comedy that is most captivating. Lately she has affected male attentions and believe we like her best in skirts. Mamma and Papa Gibbon contribute songs and some sleeping to the act and at the finish. Baby Albert comes out dressed as his father; and his sister. Corinne in a tuxedo suit, brown sweater, and although scarcely higher than his daddy's knee, set the house skiffing with his "booting." A special program of pictures is being 'shown each day in conjunction with the vaudeville and particular attention is called by the management to the big feature which will be shown on the rock, namely "Shackles of Gold" starring Wim Farnum. This picture is now being exhibited in the leading theatres throughout the country. CAREY "Spitfire" The big special feature at the Carey on Monday will be "Spitfire" a Real Productions picture featuring an all-colored cast headed by Edna Morton supported in the principal leads by Lawrence Chenault host known of colored screen "Williams" and Edward Browne. The scenes of "Spitfire" are laid Washington and in the State of Maryland a few miles from the Capital City, and the story tells of a young colored novelist who has written a novel dealing with color- Quality Tailoring The BEST PRICES the LOWEST HARRY, THE TAILOR 1819, PENNA, AVENUE Lester Cuneo in "BLAZING ARROW" A Western Picture with a difference EST ENEMY AND LOVE EST ENEMY ANI LOVE IS MAN'S GREATEST FRIEND.

In seeking this experience, he goes to the Little Maryland settlement and there meets the daughter of a high temper has been nick-named "Spitfire." Her father is in the clutches of a gang of horse thieves headed by one Bradley (Chemault), and it is the rounding up of the gang and the love that springs up between the young novelist and the country loss that the picture has to do. Miss Morton who is the lead actress of the movie "acts the role of "Spitfire." The comedy on this day will be "The Agent" starring Larry Semon. These features will be continued on Tuesday. On Thursday, another big feature will be shown in "Hidden Women" featuring Evelyn Nesbit who will be remembered as the murder of Stuart White, and Russell Thaw, her son, who Thaw refuses to acknowledge. For the last two days of the present week, the management invites special attention to the first episode of "The Social Buccaneer" a new serial in which Jack Mulhall and Louise Lorraine are the comedians in the "Be Reasonable" a two-act comedy; a two-act western entitled "The Texas Sphinx" starring Harry Carey and the "Best Collar" a comedy featuring Neely Edwards, which will comprise the Friday program, and chapter 4 of "Around the World in 18 Days," a Sherlock Holmes detective story entitled "The Man With The Thunderbolt" with 9 Theuder Jack" co-featuring Marin Sais and Jack Hott. A Harold Lloyd comedy entitled "By My Wife" and an Aesop Fable entitled "The Frog and the Catfish" which will comprise the Saturday program. ARGONNE (Vaudeville and Pictures) A tip-up four-act vaudeville bill is the stage attraction at the Argonne this week, comprised of Jenkins and Jenkins, man and woman: "Happy" Kinnball "single" Hooks and Hawkins, sister act and "Dude" McDow blackface musician whose instrument consist of ordinary bottles filled with water. These acts were a big hit with the foday act and the act which divided theatre to the doors. Kinnball who was seen in the cast of the Harvey Minstrels at the Doughless Theatre last week, worked under cork springing a line of chatter that had them whooping and added some comedy antics of burlesque rope walking that set them howling with glee. Jenkins and Jenkins who are old favorites with local audiences again scored with their chattering songs and dancing closing once clever mouth-organ playing by the male member of the duo while his partner accompanied nicely on the guitar. The sister act of Hooks and Hawkins, caught on to a good hand, largely as the result of their "puppy teasing" both being fairly clever hoofers, and McDow had them storming for more with his jazz selections on the bottles. Pictures complete the bill. Rat White with PERCY HOWELL, Himself Fastest Colored Musical Comedy on earth Dance hali and theatre managers wishing to book this show on percentage.

The stage attraction at the Lincoln this week is Bennie Sparrow and his Mid-City Follies Company, an organization which Sparrow hammered together just three weeks ago but which bids fair to come one of the best "tabs" in business. The cast is comprised of about a dozen people all of whom are experienced in the work, headed by Sparrow as chief funmaker; assisted by Gus Simmons, both working under cork. Sparrow is a laugh-getter with an original style that evens the skirts of the skirts offered to his antic the skirt offered the first half entitled "The Employment Bureau" kept the Monday audiences in a state of hilarity. In this he was aided and abetted by Simmons who also has a good gift of comedy. Especially side-splitting was their scene having to do with the disinterment of a ghost. Other members of the company whose work stood out were George Williams who took three encores and several bows on his capital rendition of "That Da Dau Strain" accompanied by some fast footwork and "cootie" capers; Emmia Simmons, who heads the feminine department, showing, funnaking talent in a character part, Eugene Thomas and James Carroll whose duet "By Buddie" went over to a big band both doing a tight dance in the "soubrette" opposite Sparrow in a dainty and graceful manner and dances cleverly. Lester Dishman and Frada Scott. Margarite Moton and Ewangles Brown who round out a fast-working "chorus." Pictures complete the bill. (Vaudeville and Pictures) Three vaudeville acts of merit comprise the stage offering at the Star this week, in the persons of Tucker and Gresham, old Baltimore favorites, Means and Means, man and woman, and Crum and Hall, male duo. Tucker and Gresham topped the bill by their breccy style, songs and clever chatter, and scored their usual hit. Means and Means offered a song twice and twice over to good hand and Crump and Hall scored with a bright line of chatter some fair singing and some clever "dog tessing". Pictures complete the bill. DUNBAR "The Snowshoe Trail" The initial feature at the Dumbar on next Monday will be "The Snowshoe Triath" a stirring drama of the Great Northwest co-starring Jane, Novak and Hoy Stewart, this picture is one of the finest dramas countryside number and have been set in the land of the great snows. 220-224 SI DROADWAY 1022-1024 FAWN STREET 1628 PEXNA.

RING OPERATES HERE City and Federal Police Try To Find Gang Leader City and Federal authorities have uncapped what they believe to be a colored section of the local dope ring in the arrest of a number of addicts and suspects during the last two weeks. While the actual head and "brains," said to be the head man who handled the stuff on a large scale, has not been approved, the result of his work has been found apparent in many cases. Among those taken into custody and tried in the Federal courts' recently on charges of having done in their possession were Ida Banks, 128 St. Spring St, and her husband, Richard Banks; Sylvester Lewis, 127 Elsen St; Mollie Lane, 15 South Dahlus St; Jennie Lamon, 120 Elsen St; Bertha Hiley, 240 Fremont ave.; Pittsburgh, 1614, Pittman, 644 Redwood street; John Floyd, $12 Sara, Ann. street. For some time the growing evidence of the use of drugs has been apparent, but that there was among colored/people a well organized dope ring dispensing the poison was not generally known. The evidence of this is now practically conclusive and the City and Federal authorities are in a drive to round up all addicts in an effort to get at the source. Three cases brought into the Federal courts last week and defended by J. Steward Davis were dismissed on lack of evidence, notwithstanding some of the women and men brought in confessed to be users of the stuff. ANTI-KLAN BILL IN CONN.

DRUGGIST UNDER BOND Dr. James H. Hillburn, druggist, 1400 Druid Hill avenue, pleaded guilty before Commissioner Supplee, in the United States District Court Saturday of violating the permitting regulations of the Volstond Law, and was placed under $550 bail for the action of the Federal Grand Jury. The offense for which Dr. Hillburn was brought before the Commissioner grew out of a shortage of prescriptions in the check-up of his whiskey stock by agents from the department. The law permitting druggists to dispense whiskey on prescriptions signed by licensed physicians requires that at all times the prescription shall be presented before a judge dispensed. If conceived Hillburn faces possibilities of having his permit rescinded according to the District Attorney's office. WATERS-SMITH Mr. Ellwood Waters, son of Mrs. Annie Waters, 514 N.

The agenda covered the whole field of Jewish interests as affecting and affected by the dominant Gentile world in which they were enveloped. The outcome of this conference has potent influence in Jewry until the present day. The East Indians meet in annual session in an All-Indian Conference to consider the book of the world at large, and its outlook upon the world at large. The Negro needs most of all the stimulation of a race consciousness and the formulation of a race ideal which will furnish inspiration to every member thereof. The proposed conference looks to this end. The next step is to devise some feasible and effective methods of procedure. Merely to issue a sudden call of the wise ones to meet and deliver fiery orations, and adopt heated and hasty resolutions would accomplish nothing. Violent protest against oppression and wrong is but natural evolution of feeling. Such has been the method of all the conferences which have gone before. PROVISIONAL COMMITTEE I now suggest that this be a conference of conferences. Let the varied organizations and agencies of nation-wide aim and purpose designate some representative in Washington City. The representatives so designated will be appointed and committee. This committee is to meet often as necessary and delegate as long as requirements of the situation demand. When it has reached agreement upon a proper agenda let it set the time and place, and issue the call for the general conference. I suggest the city of Washington as most fitting seat of the committee because of its central location and focal advantages. In order to meet inevitable objections I suggest that the central committee in Washington may organize, on the same plan of its own complexion, local committees in various centers to cooperate in the formulation of plans. The judgment of the committee should express the findings of our best minds and hearts in conscience, and should be based upon counsel as the race and as broad as its needs. If my suggestions are acceptable for the various organizations proceed at once to designate representatives, I will undertake to call them together. Then my function will be at an end. The rest will be in the hands of the race. APPOINTED ADMINISTRATOR Attorney Lewis S. Flagg, Jr., has been appointed administrator under bond of $1500 for the estate of the late Fred R.

MANY LOSE MONEY "Further, Garvey has built up an organization which has victimized hordes of ignorant and unsupporting Negroes, the nature of which is clearly stated by Judge Jacob Danken, of the New York Municipal Court, before whom Garvey's civil suit for fraud was tried. Judge Danken said: "It seems to me that you are unable to improve your liability of your own accounts, having kept no proper accounts of the money received for investments, being an organization of high finance in which the officers received outrageously high salaries and were permitted to have exorbitant expense accounts for pleasure gains throughout the country. I advise these "clips" who have contributed to these organizations to go into court and ask for the appointment of a receiver." SOLOMON'S PHARMACY Famous for PRESCRIPTIONS 631 W.

Lockerman, principal of the Teachers' Training School, who died at his home Wednesday at the age of 60. He had been ill for some time. Principals were notified to call the attention of Prof. Lockerman's demise to the notice of the teachers and pupils, and efforts were made to have a half day's session at the Training School as a tribute to the deceased. Funeral will take place at Sharp Street M. E. Church Saturday at 1 o'clock. From 9 o'clock until the services the body will be in state at the funeral service. Many of them former pupils of the beloved principal, will lie past to review the remains. Interment will be in M. Anuurn Cemetery.

TAUGHT 41 YEARS Professor Lockerman rounded out 41 years as a teacher last June beginning in 1888 down in his native county of Caroline. A. B. He worked as a farm hand and received his early education from two white men. Jos. LOCKERMAN In 1851 he launched out as a teacher in the colored schools of Caroline County. Realizing his educational shortness, he asked to be few of the public schools of the county were open in 1882-3 and entered Morgan College, then known as Centenary Biblical Institute. VICE-PRINCIPAL OF HIGH SCHOOL. A hard and capable student, he was graduated in 1886 and finished the old classical course there two years later. He became a member of the faculty of the college, resigning in 1901 to become the principal of the Centenary High School. At this time he had earned three-10 year teaching certificates in the public schools and had been offered the principalship of the Girard Avenue Public School. Prof. Lockerman was chached by Johns Hopkins graduate students in Latin, Greek, Hebrew and mathematics, and was known to be one of the most capable teachers in the City. When Mr. J. H. X. Waring resigned as principal of the Colored High School he took his place and later was sent to the Colored Teachers' Training School as its head. He was a deep student of educational problems and possessed a vast fund of information on many subjects. A man of modest and retiring disposition, it is doubtful if he had an enemy. At the fifteenth anniversary of Morgan College he was honored with the degree of Doctor Pedagogy AS TONGUETED IN YOUTH Professor Lockerman entered Morgan College as a tongue-tied country youth. He was told to recreate "tongue twisters" over and over to aid him himself of this defect. Night and day he walked the corridors of the College, repeating "Theophilus Thistle, the thistle sieve, suffered three thousand sieve, without thrusting one through the thick of his thump." Schoolmates of his included Bishop W. Sampson Brooks, Bishop Matthew Clair, Principal Wm. H. McAbee and George Gilbert. Frequently shoes were shied into the half at the country youth, to make him quit walking up and down, but Mr. Lockerman persisted and overcome this defect in his speech. GENTUS IN JUVENA Unable to secure instruction in trigonometry in the College, Mr. Lockerman's class at Morgan employed a professor from Johns Hopkins. At the second meeting of the class, Professor Lockerman announced that he had mastered the whole book. Amazed the professor sent him to the blackboard and asked him to work qut propositions in the back of the book and from the middle of the book. He covered the board with figures while the teacher Afterwards he submitted that he had never submitted trigonometry before he had mastered the book in single sitting by staying up all night. The professor refused to teach the class further and Mr. Lockerman was installed as instructor. JOVED BY STUDENTS Many of the boys and girls who have passed thru the schools in the past twenty years knew and loved Professor Lockerman who they affectionately called "Moses." They lived in, in him not only his high scholarship and high moral sense, but also his cultured manner and quiet dignity.

He told her that he knew a "peculiar kind of drug" that would banish those gains before a sheep could shake its tail three times. "That 'taint no use for you to try to get it because, nobody in the world knows about it' but me," She gave him a $12.00 to get the medical medicine and waited for his return. She would have been waiting yet if the police had not helped her find him. He was found guilty of arraignment in Part 2 of the Criminal Court Friday and sentenced to 30 days in jail. Got Hungry and Mad Too Miss Rebecca Dashields, 1492 Argyle avenue, might have forgiven her sweetheart, Alonzo Adams, for not buying pork chops for her Sunday morning and the other things that go to make up a good breakfast, if she had not passed the cafe at 117 Pennsylvania avenue. But when she saw him sitting there with two other women eating a big order of fried chicken she did some stirring around that brought the police flying. At the Northwestern Police Station Monday Ames was told to bring his girlfriend at last begin at home and jolles girl was, dangerous enough, but when girl was hungry too, you could not tell what might happen. Thomas Boose, 429 Earre street who had saved a little fortune of $100 by selling wood and coal, will keep a close eye on any young women, who come into his place and put him on the chin hereafter. According to his statement in Part I of the Criminal Court Friday, Mrs. Bertha Armstrong, a neighbor of Boose, came into his place recently and after putting him left, $100 which he was carrying also left with her. A whole outfit of swell clothes bought by Mrs. Armstrong the same afternoon helped to confirm the opinion of Judge Sue Stein that she had some knowledge where that $100 went, and she won't get chance to wear them for three months. Finds Policy At Lore Feast When Mrs. Cozy Jackson, 1926 N. Calhoun street, according to her story in Part 2 of the Criminal Court Monday, left her husband because she only gave her 20 cents in two weeks and then came back and borrowed 25 cents of that, he became heartbroken, repentant and so sorrow-striken he asked her to meet him for a reconciliation. When she met him, the reconciliation she got was a beating. Several weeks later he tried the reconciliation plan again; she invited the police to be present at the pre-creole and met him where he asked her. As a result Albert Jackson faced his Honor Monday on a charge of non-support. The judge ordered him to pay $5 per week.

The following statement is from Miss Rose Eisenberg, 4186 Guilford avenue: "I suffered from a tumor that had existed almost from childhood and was constantly under care of trained doctors. From frequent hemorrhages, I had become as pale and bloodless as a ghost, and so weak as to be scarcely able to stand or walk. The bloody loss of blood was great as to cause such long fainting spells that my family thought me past mortal help. "My mail bogged me to try Herbs of Life; so I asked my doctors if it would be all right. They said 'Not!' that I should not take any medicine while taking theirs. Believing that they are trying to get all of the money they could save, I missed every one and commenced taking the famous Herbs of Life. The troubles have disappeared and I must say that my cure was miraculous, and I cannot express my gratitude and thanks for learning of Double Strength Herbs of Life.

The Negro race is known to have existed 3,345 years, 298 years later than the earliest notice of the white race, of which we have distinct mention B. C. 2200. This makes the existence of a Negro race certain about 342 years after the flood, according to the Hebrew chronology. A Negro of Charlotte, N. C. invented an airship stabilizer which was adopted by the British Government. The inventor was commissioned a second Lieutenant in the British Aviation Corps. Of the Negro race, one-fifth were returned as mulattoes at the 1910 census; that is, as not being "evidently full-blooded Negroes." Many Negroes have received the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, which is highest in educational institutions. Fifteen Years Ago Items From The Afro-American Of February 1, 1908 Rev. E. F.

THE FORUM Bector Heartily Supports The Idea That We Must Vote For Democrats, Especially Of The Character Of Wm. Cabell Bruce. To the Editor: I want to give you my hand, and most heartily complimen you on your three words in the February "Crisis,""—"Vote for Democrats." That is the medicine. While I am, nominally, a Republican, I am even more, a Christian citizen; hence, I am never in doubt in casting my vote. When we realize that we simply must co-operate with the best men and women' of character, in the community where we live, we must selves, quite often, voting for men and women styled "Democrats". We can not do this very long before it brings the response we seek. Instead of criticising some ancient utterance of a man like Senator Bruce, we rest our confidence upon the unmistakable marks of strong character possessed by the man, our hero, the great hero of ideas will invite just the co-operative assistance we need. One thing can truthfully be said of the men of the calibre of William Cabell Bruce, their willingness, and readiness, to promote the welfare of colored citizens rest upon principle. When we shall have recognized this, and given such men even a modest support and confidence, we shall then be in a better position to determine whether it has been bestowed in vain. For myself, with an intimate knowledge of, and a strong friendship for, a large number of men of color, the classes of white men, I do not hesitate to say with you: "Vote for Democrats." An appreciable number of colored voters standing squarely behind such Democrats of character will cannibale them to do for this race what they can not do until the thinking part of the race articulate such confidence. Let the vulgar rabble amongst us hesitate about what they are going to "get", but let black men of ideas and character honor their own elevation of character by recognition of the same in white skins. GEORGE P. BRAGG Colored Women's Clubs Will Fight Capper Bill Which Would Prohibit Intermarriage Of Races To the Editor: Every forward looking person, black or white, has read with surprise and amusement the Capper Bill just entered in Congress, which among other things stamps the black race, not only as inferior but as an "animal" race. I am not the President of the National Association of Colored Women but I feel frank to state that the 6,719 clubs with 161,000 colored women as members will not only protest this degrading and demoralizing bill but that we will find champions among the women of the white race. While self-respecting colored women have no desire to intermarry, the same self-respecting colored women insist that black be protected against the ravages of white brutes thus marriage. I had the honor in 1920, of speaking in the House of Parliament at Norway for the American women, to present a resolution which was endorsed by representatives of thirty-three white civilized nations, to the effect that illegitimate law would kill their father's name and their father's property. What would be the status of these unfortunate children if this law was passed? I am confident that broad-minded man, like Senator Capper, would not advocate such a bill. Somebody has put Senator Capper's hands into the fire to pull out some other person's hands. I am wondering who is "the nigger in the wood-pile." Colored women will fight this bill. There Are Many Who Would Like To See Harry Cummings Honored And Yet Totally Disagree With What Mr. MacBeth Says Below. Perkins Square is a notable place where his name it in honor of some worthwhile local character? To do so would seem more appropriate than to name it for Frederick Douglass, for Douglass already has monuments and other memorials in his honor all over this country. Baltimore already named one of its schools in his hometown, and themselves have recently built a first class, commodious theatre on Pennsylvania avenue, at a cost of nearly half a million dollars and have named it the Douglass Theatre.

His mother was a Negro slave while his father was a white man. Until nearly eight years of age he lived with his grandmother, he was sent to Baltimore, Md. to live in the family of Hugh Audl. Mrs. Auld treated him with marked kindness and without her husband's knowledge began teaching him. With money secretly earned by blacking boots he purchased his books. He soon learned to write "free passes for runaway slaves." William Frevland, a new master who owned a large plantation near St. Michael's, Md., treated him with much kindness but tempted to escape in 1894, but his plans succeeded and he was to jail. Douglass had many hardships through life. He died February 20, 1895, at Anacostia Heights, D. C. He was widely known for his eloquence, and was one of the most effective orators whom the Negro race has produced Frederick Douglass was born in Tuckahoe, Md., in the year of 1817. His mother was a slave, and his father was a white man. He knew nothing of his father. Frederick Douglass was separated from his mother very young, he being brought from his Eastern Shore home. He was placed with family of people named Aud that lived on Caroline Street, near nearby navy base. His master lent him to a friend here in Baltimore. Here he was educated by his mistress, and he learned very fast; so that his mistress stopped teaching him. Down around Centennial Church is where Frederick Douglass got the inspiration which made him a world figure in the cause of freedom. He went to New York, then to New Bedford, Mass, and became a worker and a local preacher. While he was in New England he was married, the person he gave him one thousand seven hundred and fifty dollars for the interest of the chooses and for his freedom. Douglas had an institute located for many years on Lexington street opposite the Post Office. It was named after him. He went around making many speeches. He also made a speech to the High School graduates of Baltimore in 1894. A splendid monument has been erected to his memory in a public square in Rochester, New York. A public square in Boston dedicated to Frederick Douglass, 1917, noted Negro abolitionist and teacher of the race in Civil War days. Frederick Douglass died February 20, 1885, beloved by all. MARY SCHOOL 113 DOUGLASS' EDUCATION IN BAULTMORE When Frederick Douglass was ten years old, the old master sent Baltimore. His new mistress was a white woman named Mrs. Solphia Auld. She was very kind to Frederick and treated him as her own child. Her kindness led him: to beg her to teach him to read; to teach him to cook; and before long he had mastered his alphabet and could spell small words. When Mr. Auld found this out he forbade her to continue her instructions, saying that it was unlawful, also unsafe and could only lead to mischief. He further said it "You give a nigger an inch he will take an ell" and "nigger would spoil the nigger in the world."

The son returns Frederick Douglass was a Negro boy who was born in slavery about the 14th of February, 1817, on a large plantation on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. He lived in a log cabin with his grandmother, his mother being one of the cabin made of two rooms, one of which was made of fence rails which served for floor and bed. He lived here six years. Later on between six and seven years of age, he was carried to the home plantation of his master, Colonel Anthony. Before he was twelve years of age he went to Baltimore. His master was a relative of his old master. He and Anilun unused to slaves took interest in standing him to stand at her knee and learn letters with her son. Being pleased with his progress she told her husband who became angry and requested her to stop teaching him. Thomas Auld needed his care no longer so he was given work in the shipyard of Mr. Auld. In this work he learned to write by copying letters which were found on the vessels' sides. Later he dressed in a sailor borrowed money from a woman who afterward带 his wife, boarded his four-wheeled train in Baltimore and twenty-four hours afterward arrived in New York in the year of 1838. GLADYS L. SCOTT Washington, D. C. DOUGLASS' RISE FROM SLAVERY In a small district town named Tuckahoe, Maryland, which was thinly populated and remarkable for nothing more than the general dilapidation of its farms and the indigent and spiritless character of its inhabitants and among slaves who in their point of ignorance and indulence were fully in accord with their surroundings, he was from Frederick, Doughton, February He was the first of his childhood days in slavery. Although his father was said to be a white man, he was reared according to the law, a slave. He was bought by a Baltimore builder in 1837. He escaped in 1838 as he had taught himself to read and write and showed talent as an orator. He was employed by the Anti-Slavery Society as one of their lecturers. In 1845 he published his autobiography and afterwards made his best seeing tour in England. In 1845 started a journal entitled The New National Era. In 1871 he was appointed secretary of the Commission of Santo Domingo, in 1872 Presidential elector, in 1877 Marshall of the District of Columbia, then commissioner of deeds for that district, 1889 United States. Minister of Haiti, shortly afterward he died in Washington, February 20, 1895. But his great work will live on for-ever. GENEVA J. WRIGHT Storer College Harpers Ferry, W. Va. DOUGLASS SOUGHT FREEDOM Frederick Douglass was born in Tuckahoe, Maryland on February 14, 1817 and lived to be about 78 years old. Frederick Douglass was a slave in that state. His master and mistress were kind to him. He was taken away from his mother when very young and never remembered seeing her again. It is said his mother was a colored woman and his father a white man whom he never knew. Frederick Douglass attempted to run away but was captured, and he succeeded in escaping later. He was one of the greatest orators of his race and time. He now went to school where he was born. When he heard that the colored boys were free in Massachusetts and other states, he went to New Bedford and there he was married under another name. Mr. T. J. Callaway of Glendale, Md. made a trip to the South with Mr. Douglass when he made his speech there. There was a crowd of both colored and white present. He died February 20.

Sometimes the tuition fee was a cracker which Douglass took with him in his pocket, and sometimes they were given in boyish good will. At last when he knew how to recyfey well, he secretly bought himself a book entitled "The Columbian Orator," out of some money which he had saved up. After he grew to be a man he became a great orator and spoke at an inn and a boat on the river and hunted a boat in 1841. After this he was made an agent of the anti-slavery society. Writer's Name not signed FREDERICK DOUGLASS' LOVE FOR EDUCATION Although Frederick Douglass was a slave he was anxious to be educated. Douglass often heard his master speak of "abolitionists." What this word meant he did not know, but he noticed it in his life with slavery. He found that whoever the "abolitionists" were they were extremely hated by slaveholders. This increased his anxiety to know the meaning of this word. He consulted the dictionary but in information this source, The "Baltimore American" gave him the information denied him by the dictionary. In this paper he found that on a certain day a number of petitions had been presented to Congress, urging the abolition of slaves. When he heard the word "abolitionists" he felt that it was a matter of personal concern. As Douglass was now able to read he decided to add the art of writing to his educational materials. He also added the ship, he noticed that the carpenters wrote the initials of the name of that part of the ship for which a piece of timber was made, on the timber. If a piece of timber was for the starboard side of a ship it was marked with "S" and the other side with "L". The carboard side was marked "L". Douglass spent his spare moments copying these letters. When he had mastered these letters he tried other letters from different sources, such as the Bible, hymn books and spelling BLACKING BOOTS ALICE M.

The left forward come in, and the right forward come in, who is now up on or two steps beyond the center circle. The right forward in the meantime has maneuvered over to the left side of court, getting in a position to receive a pass from the right guard. As you progress, the season programs you will find that the left forward will be able to go up in the air and tap the ball to right guard. The center, after putting the ball in play, cuts through the left, giving pass to the pass or to follow up a miss shot. The left forward, after passing to the right guard, goes through to the back court, so that right guard can continue toward basket after making his pass through—the forward, right guard and center. Q. How are players numbered? A. Players shall be numbered with plain numbers at least six inches high and one inch wide. Players are usually on the backs of their shirts. Q. Whose fault is it if the players are not supplied with a whistle? A. The timekeepers should see that they have a whistle, going off at the right time. If they have not, they should call it to the attention of the referee. He will see that they are provided with some sort of an implement to be used by them. Q. When, where and by whom was the game originated? A. In 1864 at 1864 at the Springfield, Mass., Y. M. C. A. Dr. Jasper Nulsenth, then a physical director at that institution and now head of the physical instruction department of a western university. A. I can interfere with a player who is returning the ball into the court from out of bounds. A. No part of your person shall be outside of the court and you are not allowed to touch the ball until it has crossed the line. Q. When is a ball in play at center A. All point the whithe the best puzzle to the Snapped the Snapped (fonon). it reaches its highest force shall blow his le is play. of course shall blow his in play. want points about wild rick Thorn, care of g.

(Special to Associated Negro Press by Ollie Womack, Former Ball-Pigger) The important question now being asked in baseball circles, and has been asked for some time, is: it is an absolute fact that the white use Negro umpies? we not train our own umpies as we are trained in the whites, for why don't the Negro ball clubs would be umpies would not work from three to five days a week for about eight weeks each season if unable of officiating in even a game. Kansas City has had its league from three years and has educated its white umplems, and each has gotten with some league. One with the Northwestern, one with the Southwestern. Class C; for the only one of the three who "at the entire three years in college" in chief has just applied to the American association, which is virtually in major league, and upward he will climb until some day he will be another "Filly Brains" player. Do not remember the white man that immured for this or that Negro from years we thought we were blind at times, but this is immining behind the plains in this world series. One of the hottest, backgamble games between "girl" quizzes that have been witnessed on the -deal moment this season is expected, to be played on Saturday night when the college team will play the V. W. C. culpable will stack up against the girls' cage of Morgan College at the "Y" gym. (By Associated Negro Press) Washington, Feb. 1, - Mont. Washington governor of Porto Rico, who he has been since, will shortly resign his post, and Clarence R. Edwards, former commander of the 'Twenty-sixth New England division in the World War, will be appointed in his stead. 500 SCHOOL BOYS START THIS WEEK IN AFRO-AMERICAN BASKETBALL LEAGUE The Annual Afro-American Playground Athletic League Public School Basket Ball Tournament under way at St. Peters Hall on Tuesday.

BIG FIVE LOSES BY SECONDS Washington "Y" Tie Score with 30 Seconds of Play Left and Wins 15 Later With Foul Goal Staging a basketball battle that was in every sense of the word "heart-breaker" the "Y" "Big Five lost to the Washington "Y" cagers on Saturday night at the "Y" gym with 15 seconds of play left. The final score was 36-35. It was expected that the game featured teams are keen rivals every season. There was no disappointment, and when the first half ended, the score stood 25 all. We had to go underway, again,勾励 the score oscillated in favor of first one and then the other until with only a few minutes of play remaining the locals shot into the lead by three points, the score standing 25-33 in their favor. As the minutes gradually slipped with the Capitalist being beautiful and the Capitol being double, the net the handful of local roots became, jubilant believing that the game was "sweed up". And then something happened with just 20 seconds of play left. Center Davis of the visitors, who had up to that time flung five of them right into the bottomless hole from long range, got the metal fraction of m second and let fly, and the hall trickled through the net for the lying points 35-35. Realizing that the game was "about over" both teams struggled like men, and in the mix up the locals were, the first to draw a penalty for personal contact. 15 seconds now to go. A. Jones strolls oil to the foul line, and fortune smiling on him with more benignness of Morgan on the previous night in a similar circumstance, he tossed the ball accurately into the net with the winning point.

Here is a line from him: Received your letter a minute before you can only say that I am not competing this infield season. --- You know that I am crazy about the game and would like to race Kitao over the two and three mile courses this season but my work --- "I am in charge of the Community house, just completed for the fellows who came here from the University, and I can not afford to let this opportunity slip by." --- I expect to compete a few times this spring and summer. I am looking forward to making good on the goals. I will compete later. Good night, running. --- THANKS FOR BEING SO INTERESTED IN ME AND IN YOUR ARTICLE FOR HE IS CERTAINLY A WONDERFUL TUNNEL. ```markdown ``` I have had many offers to com- pete but for the reason state above I am unable to accept.

MORGAN QUINT LOSES TO ARMSTRONG 28-29 Hillenites Are Nosed Out By One Point In Thrilling Clash at "Y" Gym the performance of the nag that "stuck out her tongue and the X" last Friday night when the Armstrong High School basketball team of Washington, D. C. won over the Morgan College quintet one point, the score ending 29-28. The game was one of the best that have been seen here this season. During the first half the day was so close that the score was in a high state of excitement, especially the Morgan College rosters who were on hand in heavy numbers. The score saw-saw-see-saw other leading in the scoring until near the end of the period when Morgan jumped into the lead by 4 points the largest margin up in the latter's favor 19-15. When the teams took to the floor for the second half, Armstrong threw a surprise into the ranks of the Hillel men, both team and individual, system that worked beautifully. Time and again, they put the spheroid into circulation by this method, using a glove with the Morgules dumb-founded in their tracks looking on helplessly. For almost half of the second period they held the Hillelites scoreless while they themselves scored well, looking like they were going to look like they were going to win the oyster's overcrowd by a big margin. But Morgan wasn't through by a jujug and ergo theokes of the nasty forward who answers to the patronymic of Hill and flung three times squarely into the anureture in rapid succession from the outlying territory and with only a minute of play left, and, the score 29 to 23 in favor Armstrong: Fate winked her eye at the Morgules and the latter found themselves with an opportunity to tie the score by a foul penalty. As the College rosters realize the situation their yelling which a moment before had been of heddling-like proportions, they head to the court, we secure, as Captain Day tood the four line for the momentous fling which would even up matters. But like the mighty, the rotten, the game was lost, for the whistle now sounded, ending hostilities. Substitutions (Armstrong) Blue for Templa; Laev for Midtown.

C. SAYS FOSTER GOT $11,000 OUT OF LEAGUE BY W. S. Perrance Every day I am being asked a number of questions relative to the supposed Negro National League. I am going to write a series of articles based on my actual experience as under secretary for five (5) years with the St. Louis Giants. My team, the circuit, placed me in position to know the inside work of the local organization and what I write will be actual facts and not "hear-say." I had free access to all mail, public and private. I am going to give the fans my view of the supposed League. What I say will be the truth. How well do I remember in 1920 at Kansas City, M. this supposed League was launched. Owing to the meeting of the meeting, Lorenzana Cobb was assigned to represent the St. Louis club, with the understanding not to sign any papers that would bind the League organization. The league is where the team is now. Cobb's first official not was to allow the transfer of out-fielder Jimmy Lyons to Detroit, a scheme that was put into place a few weeks before, a hot球, who every baseball fan knows. Lyons was the one best bet of the St. Louis club at that time. On the second day came the orginal day of the proposed League. St. Louis and American Giants being represented in person; Cuban Stars, Bayton Maros and Chicago Giants, Andrew Postes, all billed by Andrew Postes. LEAGUE ONLY BOOKING AGENT Every owner and manager was elated over the prospects of the birth of a league, which means so much to the club owners, players and general public, success seemed assured. It was then the owners realized that the proposed League was nothing more than a booking agent, to be operated. Nor the benefit of one (1) man, with only a mutual agreement concerning players. It was like striking a match to a can of gasoline. Now, mind you, there was not a man connected that was not in position to book his own club and had been doing so for years, but by virtue of power invested in one man, through the proposed League was on in disguise. POSTER GOT'S PER CENT. The late C. I. Taylor and Charles Mills were the only two men that had nerve enough to fight the one-man booking agency. Taylor and Mills were strong advocates for the organization of a League, but bitter against giving any one man five per cent (5%) of all games played by the eight (8) clubs, regardless of who they played and where they played and the Téchnique as a whole to receive nothing. So to keep hard money and willing to sacrifice, agreed with the understanding, that after the first year they would go into a something that never did materialize. $11,220 FOR "RUBE" At the annual meeting held in Indianapolis the following year, against the bitter fight against such high-profile candidates, have the dispensation of knowing the meaning of a one-man rule. Mr. Foster's report to his associates at Indianapolis, was that he received Eleven Thousand Two Hundred Twenty Dollars from the United States in 1920 to the five per cent (5%) from each club, and the supposed League, nothing was as startling as it was true. Not one penny has the supposed League as a whole. They can operate under the present rule fifty (50) years bed. in. in the clubs of the players and the stand in the pastent race, if there is a what every fan would like to know and read. We well remember in St. Louis, concerning the averages mailed out from the "League headquarters" and sent the games played in Indianapolis, Kansas City and Day 28 (28) in 1921—the Chicago American Giants (Foster's club) being the visiters in these games, strange but a row causal the American Giants sung in Suzuki field. In this case nothing could be done. Why? Because each manager would have to file a complaint against Manager Foster, mail it to 2: Secretary Foster and then President ASSESSED $25 ADDITIONAL! One of the most defini- tious things that happened in the indipli- nationally-five ($25,000) dollars against each of the eight (8) club owners for the expense of certain individuals, who were paid, while Mr. Foster sat in the president's chair with $1 the supposed League had not one cent to pay a just debt. No wonder the president fights any League proposition, no wonder that any one who is truly done away with. The truth must come sooner or later, so much has been printed that is untrue, I am going to deal them on the table for the benefit of the fans. Read my next article. (To be continued.)

FAMOUS ROUNDS OF FAMOUS BATTLES WILLS—NORFOLK On March 2nd, 1922 before a crowd estimated at 15,000, Harry Wills knocked out Kid Norfolk in the second round with a short right hook to the jaw. John Wills being at a disadvantage in weight, height and reach. Round Two They exchanged light blows to the head and Wills landed on the body as they fell into a clutch. The referee stopped between them and as they were paraded, there was a folk lay flat on his back on the canvas. When he fell from that short right to the jaws, his head hit the canvas. He was not out as he lay blinking up at the referee who stood over him counting. When the referee came to the bed he fell on the canvas to his knees and staggered and screamed. The referee said: "men and out." He did not seem to understand that the fight was over and he was beaten. He tried to push past the referee to renew the battle against who sat quietly in his corner not even drawing long breath. (Black Sox versus Hillebrand at Maryland Park, May 7. Score, 2nd in innings, 5 to 1 favor Hillebrand) Pierce drew four balls. Brown singled. Pierce going, to, second. "Lettty" Smith heat out infield hit filling balls. Rigidly fouled out. Pierce hit a home run into the soaring Pierce from third. The bases were still hated when Miller come to bat and hit a hot grounder into the stands for a home run sacks. Score 6-5 in Black Sox favor. Pierceulate argued that the hit was a hit, a home run, a sunfire failed to concede them the point, walked off the field. DENIES THAT HE WILL ENTER PRIZE RING Says He Can Act If Law Practice Fails, But Hasn't Been Admitted to Bar Yet By J. A. Jackson Paul Robinson, the big collar law-patrol-actor, who, according to an interview in the Signature, and has been sent broadcast by press associations and sport writers, is going into training to fight Harry Wills with the hope of meeting Deming. He called at the Billboard office to deny the rumor in most emphatic诗. Robinson is particularly incensed at the statement that he is doing this thing because he has been a failure at the practice of law, an obvious untruth, since he has not been able to pass judgment upon himself in this respect.

On getting her chips she came across a piece of sugar-cane. A man came to her. An old pig came to her and said "That is my sugar-cane so give it to me." The old woman said, "No, no I should carry it home to my grandchild." The pig said, "Alright I shall come around to your house and keep you awake all night." The old woman went home and made her fire, then went out on the steps and sat down and started to cry. And old man passing by asked her what was the matter. She told him so, he gave her a package of needles and went on. She stuck the needles in a circle in the door. Another man came past and asked her what was she crying about, she told him, so he gave her some crabs. She put the crabs on the table in a jar of water. Another man came past and asked what was she crying about. She told him, so he gave her a cow, she lied the way to one end of the bed. Another man came past and asked her what was the matter. She told him, so he gave her a goat. She tied the goat to the other end of the bed. Another man came past and asked her what was the matter. She told him, so he gave her a deep well. She went and fared. She went in the house and sat down, here comes the pig a squeak ing with all his might. He bumped into the door and all the needles in the house and thought the water on the table would help his nose so he stuck his nose down in it and the cranks bit him. He ran to the bed and the cow kicked him back to the cow, and the cow kicked him out doors. He saw the papers laying out in the yard s. he went to lay on them and fell in the well. The old woman came out and threw a large stone on the poor pig laid there and died. THELMA WATERS 413 Gay S. Denton, MJ My Happiest Moment My happiest moment seems to be a trifle different than those termed such by others. I was forced to keep company with a man whom I knew. My parents thought the world of him, but to me he was—ugh! One evening the end of October I felt very much downhearted because I knew he was coming. I stood out on the past, thinking of what I had done. Keep Well H. I. B. B. Q—Kindly tell me what to do for film on my teeth. Have your teeth cleaned by a dentist and keep them clean by brushing them morning and night and after each meal. Steady Reader. Q—Regularly, every two months, I suffer from sore on my eye. Kindly tell me how to cure this. Have your eyes examined, as most likely you need glasses. M. A. R. I. Q—I have been troubled with a rough surface on my skin. Kindly give me a remedy for this trouble. A—Apply glycerine and rose-water or massage with a good cold cream. This often improves the condition of the skin. Mrs. L. R. Q—My baby, 4 years, has had the "flu" and since that time she has been cold easily. Have your baby examined for the presence of adenoids, which may be causing the trouble. Mrs. A. N. S. Q—Just as soon as the weather is a little cold my feet are very cold. A—Try taking hot foot-baths at night, followed by massage. This has often proved helpful in such cases. Also, wear woolen stockings in cold weather. I. N. Q—Please to me how to improve the curl of my eyelashes to clip the eyelashes? A—Apply yellow oxide of mercury 1 per cent to the eyelashes at night. This will improve their growth. This is not advisable to apply the eyelashes, as this may lead to ingrowing hairs. My Lucky Accident $1 PRIE WINNER A few years ago I was employed by a lumber company to drive a truck for them. Some times would be sent out of the building with a half dozen lumber and material shipment. One morning as I was preparing to start on one of these trips a telephone call summoned me to the office. On arriving there I was told that a car could not be placed for loading until later in the day. We should oblige to furnish later in the day. I wout out and told the man that I had been ordered to take them for a ride and then release them until later in the day. I was just learning to load and as with lumber I had a request for speed. Reaching a nice level stretch of road I 'let out', with the result that as we came to a sudden turn in the road, the truck upset, luckily injuring no one. We managed to have the machine towed to town where I had the damage that had been done.

Drawing St. 3000 Per Week At Davis, the financial backer of Irving Miller, may be quite satisfied with his investment, for the show does a capacity business five nights each week, a good Saturday nature, a fair business on the first two nights of the week, and puts on a midnight show which also provides a nice contribution to the week's gross. Incidentally, the gross income has slowly been mounting till it has been getting also around $7,500 per week, a healthy figure. The reason for this is that the host provides a clean and pleasing evening's entertainment. During the two hours and ten minutes required to run we got a lot of each, saw a well-trained sprightly choreo, and heard some cooking, food singing. Any person seeking entertainment value for his money will find it in "Liza" with its mouth running and well-balanced at.

GILPIN WELCOMED IN MOVIE STUDIOS Special to the *Arizona American By North Thompson* Los Angeles, Cal., Feb. 1—The accompanying picture represents an interesting meeting between two great artists, one of the stage and the other of the screen, who brought fame and honor to the colored by his murky depiction of the psychology of fear in "The Emperor Jones" and Charles Ray who is known around the world by his brilliant especially for his portraits of ambitious youth. During a visit of Mr. Gilpin in Los Angeles with his play, where he scored a great popular and artistic success and received better-being certified notices in the press, he said a visit to Mr. Ray's studio where he was received with great cordiality by the motion picture star and his co-workers. Mr. Ray showed his breadth of mind and brageness of heart by affirming to Mr. Gilpin all the honors that could be given to a great artist regardless of racial considerations. Mr. Gilpin, his wife and a party of friends were taken over the extensive Ray Studio, where Charles Ray is engaged upon the work of filming upon an elaborate scale. Longfellow's epic poem, "The Courtship of Miles Standish," The production is to cost half a million dollars and will be an elaborate historical drama covering the great adventure of the Pilgrim Fathers in coming to America in 1620. For use in the production Mr. Ray has reconstructed in exact size the original Mayflower, 102 feet long. On its deck and in its cabin be taken many of the scenes the play.

This is done by steam power from two boilers underneath. An acre of water representing the bay at Blymouth surrounds the vessel. The production will probably be released in the summer. The sincerity of Charles Ray's admiration for Mr. Gilpin was proved by a letter he sent to the theater in Los Angeles expressing his admiration of the colored size.

A. Jackson Henry Creamer who lost just about $10,000 last year of which $6,000 was on "Strut, Miss Lizzie" and the balance on the ill-fated tour of the "Ebony Knights" is not a man to lose courage easily. Promptly after he had closed the *Lizzie* show in Chicago, he came to York and got busy at his established vocation of composing music. Not content with such work as he and his partner of the past five years were placing with their regular publisher a free-fancing in "Tin Pan Alley" with a lot of additional success. He has just completed an act with the song numbers for Norma Thomas, the singer of *Nomi and Her Brazilian Nuts*, the act that included At Pizarro and Tasho Hamid besides Mr. and Mrs. Thomas.

Last week, he and Anne Belle Anderson, a young lady pianist of the race who is now working with the Times Square Theater. They have a number about ready for market in which she has placed her first melody, called "I've Got It." Her lyrics are of course by Creamer. A unique situation exists with Creamer just now, in that "Sweet Swanneing" one of the numbers in "Sweet Swanneing" by Joe Mittenthal, Inc. is said to be infringed upon by the Berlin House in lewisng numbers "Pack Up Your Sins." The attorneys presume that the case as Creamer had placed his last number, "I've Got It" with the Berlin House, placing Creamer in position in all probability of being the one or the other of this publisher.

The first house of the theater bore a large picture of Dunbar, with smaller ones of Mr. Smith and Sam Clark, the proprietor. Albert Shipw was the treasurer, and George O. Smith the musical director. The next Dunbar Theater was opened by the Musical Fyros on State St. in Chicago. Since then they have multiplied rapidly. The Dunbar is probably the largest; New York is threatened with one. Smith, who is a brother of the late Bishop Smith, in a Detroit man by birth, and if his active life was not devoted to the idea of perpetuating the name of Dunbar made his life worth while to his people. Charles English, a professional confined in the National Military Home in Dayton, writes that he has had his third operation, and is very hopeful of good results. Does a like folk.

Many of the singers from continental Europe have included two or three transcriptions of old spirituals in their concert program. Galli-Curci and Frieda Hempel being their melodic and emotional values. Now Comes Claire Dux, in the United States less than a year, with a cultive group of spiritualists. Her attention was focused on a form were enlisted by Helen Hays, star of "To the Ladies!" who, in the first act of that comedy, sing two to her own accompaniment. One is of "Nobody Knows the Trick I Seen," but the other, made over from the original chant, by Zoel Parentale, owes its circulation envelopment to use of it. It is called "Happy Days" on which she to have escaped the attention of Burleigh. Miss Hayes makes no pretentions to the gift of song; the episode at the piano, wherein she sings the songs of New York times is part of the play itself. She lives at a performance in Chicago led Miss Dux to ask about their origin, and asking, she proceeded to make acquaintance with the growing literature of the transcribed "spiritual."

Douglass. 1 There are only three rules: 1 Write on one side of paper only. 2 Write no more than 250 words. 3 Get story in AFRO office before Feb. 10. Word has been received from the big firm that is making the AFRO'S prize medals, that the shipment will be started so as to reach us on February 5th. This is good news and means that the handsome bronze medals, the first of the kind ever to be stamped with the likeness of Frederick Douglass will be here in time to put them on exhibition before they are awarded to the successful story writers. A sample of the medal as it will look when completed was sent to the office this week, approved and immediately returned to the factory. This sample was only stamped in lead but it was only affixed at the bottom. When these medals are stamped in bronze and worn around the neck of a young girl on ribbon, or on the watch chain of some young boy, there will not be adjectives enough to describe how handsome they will look. So all the boys and girls who have sent in their Frederick Douglass stories must watch our next week for the first sight of the Douglass Medals. There are a lot of good Fred Douglass stories you can find from the list of books in Pratt Library. This list was printed in last week's book. If you are not near a library ask your minister, school teacher or some of the older people to tell you what they remember about Douglass. Here is a story told us by George Gilbert, carpenter, 1616 McCullon street. Douglass at Morgan College We had a public meeting out at Morgan College when I was a student there many years ago, and Frederick Douglass was the speaker. He was introduced by Mayor La Troon. The Mayor spoke of Mr. Douglass in the highest terms comparing him with Abraham Lincoln and other great Americans. When he had finished Mr. Douglass mounted the plaque form and contradicted almost everything Mayor Latrobe had said. As I recall, Mr. Douglass described that, Mr. Douglass coln he came from poor family was born reared as an American citizen with full manhood rights. Douglass, said he had born a slave and to his man was no more than cows, elephants, dogs or horses to be at will and even bought sold. Mr. Lincoln started with Douglass, I stand on the same level with farm animals. Then, came the immortal words of Mr. Douglass: Measure me not by the heights which I have attained, but by the depths from which I have sprung. T. J. Calloway of Glendale, Md. who is in the city securing funds for his new school there says that he knows more Douglass stories than the one he wrote last week, and gives this as a sample: A Writer for Leonard Mr. Douglass while well paid for the lecture tour, I conducted for him in the South was not always so fortunate. When I went to him to get him to make that, Southern tour, at first he refused. Later he accepted. His reason for refusing at first was the following: It seems that a gentleman in Pittsburgh invited Mr. Douglass to lecture there without property, a questioning the author. When Mr. Douglass arrived at the hall, it was locked and a few people were standing outside. The owner of the hall refused to open it until he had been paid in advance. The promoter of the lecture seeing so few people waiting to get in and not having the money for the hall made himself scarce. Rather than disappoint the people, Mr. Douglass went in his own place in his hall. He gave his lecture, but few were present and most of those bought tickets from the gate promoter. An insultless happened that Mr. Douglass paid for his trip from Washington to Pittsburgh, his expenses while there, the rental of the hall, and his car fare back to Washington. Douglass This is Douglass birthday will be a big event. All over the country the 106th anniversary of Douglass's birth will be celebrated. In Baltimore besides the distribution of the medals, there is a movement on foot to hold a big Douglass Day dinner at one of the hotels. Special services in honor of Douglass will be held also in the churches February 11th. Some of the museum's stories will be told at the office will be found on the editorial page. Send years in before February 10. WHICH SHOWS GREATER LOVE—TO LIVE FOR OTHERS OR TO DIE FOR THEM? Family Just From Florida With Income of Around $40 a Month, Adopts Additional Children "COPPERS" CATCH THE WRONG MAN "COPPERS" CATCH THE WRONG MAN "Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friend." So says the Good Book, and we have been accustomed to look upon dying for one's friends in the highest type of sacrifice. Over in the business section of the city, however, is a family of father, mother and four children, who came to Baltimore to settle, from Florida Christmas. The family is poor. The father earns one dollar a day as a man-home, all-work around a suburban home, his wife a suburban place, but not regularly. Their total income is around $40 a month. Of this $25 a month is Colored Runner Was Chas ing Thief, But Is Nabbed Baltimore street was all agog with excitement on Thursday afternoon of last week when a colored man was seen running west from Calvert with a Hebrew sprinting behind and yelling "Catch him!" Someone blew a whistle, which attracted the attention of a policeman at Light street. The latter holtered to the colored man to stop, but he kept right on with the copper and other whites giving chase. At Charles street another policeman grabbed the colored man, placed the nippers on his wrist and was questioning him when the first cop came up. "Why didn't you stop when called to?" the first policeman asked. "I didn't know you wanted me," gasped the colored man. "I thought the cop came up and bewailed: 'Why did you stop that colored man?' Now the man who stole my automobile has gotten away." Seeing that the colored man was WILL CONTEST WILL Papers contesting the will of the late Mrs. Amelia A. Biddle, who died recently at her home at 913 Myrtle avenue, have been filed in the Court of Common Pleas. Mrs. Biddle who was the widow of James H. Biddle, who during his life was a well known politician of this city, left her entire estate consisting of a home valued at about $3,000, to Mrs. Jennie Jones, a friend. Mrs. Mary James, 913 Myrtle avenue and Mrs. Arabiella Saunders, 907 Myrtle avenue, relatives of the deceased, are bringing the contest through their attorneys J. Stewart Davis and Lewis S. Flagg, Jr. FOUND DEAD IN BED Bernard Harris, age 6, 1216 N. Parrish street, was found dead in his bed by his mother when she entered his room early Friday morning.

So the question is—is the highest type of sacrifice to live for one's friends or to die for them? chasing the supposed automobile thief, the police turned him loose. The fellow with the automobile was gone; the officer was detained at having to turn loose when they regarded as a surcatch, resumed their duties. 'Y' RECALLED BID TO PERRY HOWARD 'Y' RECALLED BID TO PERRY HOWARD --- Feared "Unpleasant Situation" If Assistant Attorney General Had Spoken Here Fearing that his presence would cause trouble from those who would question him regarding his alleged letter to Senator T. Coleman Dupont, of Delaware, throwing cold water on the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, the invitation to Perry W. Howard, an assistant Attorney General of the United States, to speak at the Y. M. C. A. mass-meeting at Eton Baptist Church last Sunday afternoon was recalled. A group of "Y" workers had invited Mr. Howard to speak and the invitation had been accepted. This was, however, before the National Association for the Advancement of Women (NAW) was opposing the Dyer Bill. The latter entered a denial to the charge. Mr. Howard is said to have chosen for his subject, "The Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and What Caused Its Defeat." At a recent gathering in Washington, where Mr. Howard denied the allegation of the Advancement Association and declared himself to be a vigorous supporter to Mr. Dickson Tickson made a vigorous reply. When asked about the recalling of the invitation, S. S. Booker, executive secretary of the local "Y," was reluctant to talk. "All I know is that Mr. Howard had been invited by a group of workers and that the invitation had been accepted," Mr. Booker said. "This controversy between him and the National Association arose, however and we thought it best to rescind the invitation, in view of the fact that an unpleasant situation might arise from his appearance here." R. P. Hamlin, of New York, an international secretary of the Y, M. C. A., took Mr. Howard's place on the floor of the office, where he grouped the work of the "Y" and the colored people of this country, Harry P. Pratt and S. S. Booker were among other speakers. Mr. Hamlin was in the city this week to direct the drive that the lead Y, M. C. A. is making for funds. The drive ended Wednesday night. Read Our Classified Ads. MAD. 8776 J.
