Nineteen of the prisoners have had their sentences reduced from life to twenty years and the other from life to eighteen years. Thousands of persons petitioned President hardling for pardon. Sixy-seven former Negro sold- ers of the 24th infantry were convicted of participation in the Houston, Texas, race riot Aug. 23, 1917. Six were hanged. BISHOP SMITH BURIED Detroit, Mich., Feb. 8.—S Bishop Charles Spencer Smith, retired, noted as the founder of the A. M. E. Sunday School Union, died at his home here last Friday. He had been in declining health for some time. He was born at Colborne, Canada, March 16, 1852. He received a common school education and prepared for the African Methodist ministry. While posturing in Alabama, he served as a member of the Legislature during 1874-75. City Government, He Says, Will Not Commit Any Wrong Against Any of Its Citizens If any property of colored people is condemned for public purpose, no wrong will be committed against any citizen, Mayor Edward Clark told the Afro-American today. Fire destroyed one-fourth of the city recently, and colored people suffered huge losses. It was rumored that the colored people will not be allowed to rebuild homes, and that much of the land they owned would be condemned for a public park. Plans shown by the mayor indicate that the alleys will be widened to 60-foot streets, new avenues cut in, in some instances, but no other changes.

Senator Advocates Commission to Investigate Lynching in Order To 'Accomplish Something' AT MERCY OF DEMOCRATS Senate Must Change Rules or Suggest Dyer Bill In Another Form Washington, D. C., Feb. 6.—Thoroly in earnest in introducing a resolution in the Senate authorizing a commission to investigate Lynching. Senator Fredlinghysen (Rep. N. J.) told the Argo-American today that this was the only practical way to get anti-Lynching legislation. The Senator said: "I have been very earnest in my support of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill." "I have tried to find some way whereby we could accomplish the result which all good men desire for the colored race. However, it is my belief that this measure can never be enacted into law as long as the Democrats in the position they do and the Senate rules remain the same. Unless there is a majority rule, the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill cannot and will not pass. The Republican leaders have consistently and honestly attempted to bring it before the Senate. The Democrats started a well-organized filibuster, openly stating that they were against it and as long as that filibuster was kept up, it was impossible to pass the bill. Therefore, we were at the mercy of the Democrats. "I prepared a resolution for the purpose of authorizing *n* Commission to study the subject and suggest legislation in another form than the Dyer Bill, but having the same effect which would give the relief so much desired. It was not a question of submission, this issue for the Dyer Bill. In its present form, that measure cannot pass and it was my earliest endeavor to accomplish something practical which led to the introduction of this resolution." The resolution authorizes the President to appoint with the consent of the Senate a commission of five to serve without pay for one year "for the purpose of advising and providing information for Congress in matters of legislation which will prevent lynching and insure to all persons equal protection of laws." The commission would have the power to summon witnesses and take testimony under oath. It would also be given $50,000 with which to carry on its work. WANT CHENEY ABOLISHED Harrisburg, Feb. 6 (Preston News Service)—Deckering that Cheney is far below the 12 other normal schools of the State in equipment and advantages, a delegation headed by Bishon Levi Coppin asked Governor Pinchot to abolish the institution. KLAN PARADES IN ATLANTA Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 8—(Crusader Service)—By order of the Mayor, mounted city police road at the head of the Ku Klux Klan in their parade through the city Wednesday. LAINS WHY PROPER- PLE WAS CONDEMNED seems to be more or less propaganda circulated in order to bring about dissatisfaction among the colored people of this community. There is no purpose or desire on the part of the city government or its attendant to committ- any wrong against our colored or white citizens. The proposed area under condemnation is about equally divided between the white and colored property owners, and if the pending compromise proposition is carried into effect the white owners property which will come under condemnation, will considerably exceed that of the colored property owners, and this compromise as I understand it will entirely satisfy the colored citizens. We do not wish to jeopardize the interest of either race in this matter, but what is done will be mutually benefited to both races. We have agreed undertakem to move the colored section outside of the burned area which will greatly improve an enhance their holdings. Girl's Plea For Life Wins Court GARVEY CASE TAKES KU KLUX WIZARD TO N.Y. E. Y. Clark Tells Federal Grand Jury of Atlanta Meeting With U. N. I. A. Head Ku Kluxer Promises To Aid Government in Black Star Line Probe New York, Feb. S.—Edward Young Clarke, Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, came to this city from Atlanta, Ga., yesterday and appeared before the Federal Grand Jury as a witness against Marcus Garvey, who is to be tried on February 20 for defrauding investors in the Black Star Line. At a meeting of the Universal Improvement Negro Association here in July Garvey, who is known as the "Provisional President of Africa" denounced the Ku Klux Klan, but in October he made a secret trip to Atlanta and conferred there with Clarke. The Government learned of his conference recently and assistant United States District Attorney Maxwell S. Mattuck had Clarke subpoenaed before the Grand Jury. It is believed that Clarke told of his dealings with Garvey. Clarke promised Mr. Mattuck after his appearance before the Grand Jury that he would send her papers which might overturn his any overtures made by the Black Star Line Ku Klux Klan. "Edward Young Clarke was subpenamed here by me from Atlanta ten days ago after the investigation into the case of Marcus Garvey disclosed that Clarke was visited by Garvey at Atlanta sometime ago in connection with Garvey's Black Star Line and the Universal Negro provement Association, Mr. Mattuck. "It was my purpose to determine the nature of the conference so-called 'Provisional President of Africa,' and the Clarke appeared before the Grand Jury this morning and was examined by me at length as to the conference between the two men." Garvey and three officers and directors of the Black Star Line were indicted on a charge of having stated that the line had purchased a steamship which was to operate between this port and Africa. The line was capitalized at $10,000,000 and Garvey his associates sought to sell 2,000,000 shares of the stock by sending circulars through the mails. In January, J. W. H. Eason, who was to have been the chief witness for the Government against Garvey was murdered in New Orleans. There were about fifty other witnesses on the Government's list, however, who would be able to supply the evidence, it was said, Mr. Mattuck said he had known for some time that attempt were being made to initiate witnesses, and that several of them had said that their lives had been threatened. $15,000 MONUMENT Special By Associated Negro Press Springfield; ill., Feb. 8—Memory of the lives of the heroes of the 370th infantry, formerly Chicago's old 8th regiment, composed of Negro troops who paid the supreme sacrifice in the World War, is to be revered in a substantial way if a bill calling for an appropriation of $15,000 for the erection of a monument in their honor at East 35th Street and Grand Boulevard, Chicago, becomes law.

Hill Divides Time Between Home and White Church In Winnepeg, Canada IS BALTIMOREAN Born in Port Royal, Va. But Was Educated In This City Down in Hot Springs, National Park, Arkansas is a pastor who is dividing his time between the races. During certain months of the year he serves the Ronnoke Baptist Church (colored) as pastor, and during the other half of the year he is permanent supply pastor of the Zion Methodist Church (white) in Winnepeg, Canada, at a salary said to be $5,000 a year. This pastor, who holds such a unique position in American ministry is Rev. Dr. Jos. T. Hill. He was born in Port Royal, Va., July 21, 1877. But was brought to Baltimore at the age of 11, and attended the public schools and Morgan demy. Later he went to Virginia Phillips Senior University, Virginia Union University, winning his A. B. and B. D. degrees. He taught for a year in Marshall, Texas, then entered the Baptist ministry at El Paso, Texas as minister at Second Baptist Church. Later he was called to Mt Zion Baptist Church in Los Angeles. Here he won his Master's degree from the University of Southern California and studied medicine for three and a half years. In 1816, he was called to the pastorate of Roanoke Baptist Church, Hot Springs at a salary of $4,000. In 1821, heMethodist Church, white, Moose Jaw, Canada, extended him an invitation to act as supply pastor during the month of August while the regular pastor was on vacation. This was the beginning. In 1821, he performed the same service for Knox Presbyterian Church white, in Toronto. Last year he was in Zion Methodist Church, white at Winnepeg, and this year accepted the call to become permanent supply pastor. In extending the call to Rev. Dr. Hill to come to Canada as permanent supply, Rev. P. R. Johns, white pastor of Zion Methodist, fering Dr. Hill a salary of $5,000, his parsonage to co-operate with him Zion Methodist was to have two pastors, one white and one colored. Dr. Johns was to do the pastoral and financial work, Dr. Hill to do the preaching and conduct Sunday services. When Dr. John put the proposition before the official board of his church, they debated it for two hours, and finally adopted it unanimously. Thereupon he wrote Dr. Hill extending an official call saying: "I regard last night's meeting as a splendid illustration of the Master's Spirit triumphing over racial prejudice (altho the racial question never was abandoned. The Unseen Guide was at work—and at work to reveal God's will, and the sentiment of far-reaching section of the people of the city." Two years ago, Dr. Hill addressed the graduating class of the Colored High School, and made a very favorable impression in his home town. ENS S' DORMITORY me.

C., Feb. 6—A movement of Negro unskilled labor from the South to northern industrial centers considered rather remarkable for winter months, was announced today by James J. Davis, Secretary of Labor, as the result of an investigation by Phil. H. Brown, Commissioner of Cancellation in that department. This is the first gesture toward a northern shift of this class of workers that has been noticeable since the War, when the labor famine was met by their inclusion; but the present movement is in no manner widespread or considered general like the previous one. Payrolls of a number of districts in northern and central western industrial points are being slightly swelled by the employments of these workers who come directly from southern states, with Georgia yielding the greatest number of migrants. Philadelphia, Pa.; Portmouth, Akron and Youngstown. Ohio; Milwaukee, Wis.; Argo, Ill.; Indiana Harbor, Ind.; and prevention and labor, L. I., specific points into which an appreciable influx of Negro labor has come for absorption into industrial life. A slight increase is noted in Chicago, Ill., New York, N. Y., southern Ohio and Illinois points. Kansas City, Mo., Cameau, N. J., and Detroit, Mich., show no increase in the number of Negro workers; while several districts show a very slight decline in the use of Negro labor. In general, however, continued migration from the South is indicated, with a slowly increasing absorption of Negro labor by northern industry just as rapidly as its increased output is demanded. In this connection, the iron and steel industry continues to load in its demand of Negro labor, with manufacturing glass, transportation food production, etc., closely following; and the probability is great that a wider entrance than ever before, so far as specific occupations and types of employment are concerned, will eventually result from this growing movement of labor. The most significant phase of the movement is that it obtains in face of a reluctance of this labor to drift northward in winter, and the suggestion prevails that the Spring will bring larger numbers, providing the industrial demands prevail.

Two of Mrs. Hillen's children accompanied her to the Court of Common Pleas, and they stopped forward to speak for their mother and declared that aitho she was fair she was colored. The clerk explained that Maryland laws forbid intermarriage of *white* and colored, and unless she could prove more definitely that she was colored, he would refuse a license. Mrs. Hillen then explained that she was a widow, 46 years old, and was married to the late Granville Co. lawyer, Mr. Sinkfield, she said, performed the ceremony in M. Zion Church. Her husband died on May 22, 1947, and she desired to secure a marriage license on that day because the groom would not arrive in town until late Thursday, and would not have time to get the license. Angry at the clerk's insistence that this did not prove she was colored, and that she would have to produce her former marriage license or some other proof, Mrs. Hillen sought the advice of Attorney Ashleigh Hawkins, the Mr. Hawkins filed the petition of Common Pleas Thursday morning, and the license was issued immediately, without Mrs. Hillen having to appear in court in person. The ceremony was performed Thursday evening by Rev. J. G. Martin, pastor of Payne A. M. E. Church. Mrs. Hillen is well known in the city. A daughter, Mrs. Cyrus Marshall, is the wife of a teacher in the Colored high school. She is Elis M. Hillen, and two sons, Emerson E., and Eugene, employed in the Government railway mail service. Especially did Mrs. Hillen and Mrs. Marshall resent the attitude of Clerk O'Xell in withholding the license. Not only is his manner indifferent, but his kindness his idea to give the case case publicity. Daily paper reporters were admitted to the Hillen home, when they said they were from the "Court." Afterwards when they had looked thru the family Bible they admitted their identity, and were quickly put out of the house. Attorney Hawkins explained that while the law gave the license clerk power to withhold a marriage license from persons he to be to give him the power of a judge. It was Mr. O'Neil's place, said Mr. Hawkins, to hold up the license only long enough to place it before the Court, immediately if it happened to be in session, so that there might be no delay. Mr. O'Neil's keeping the matter in his own hands was clearly designed to give the newspapers a chance at it, he said. James A. Claypool, clerk of the Court, and therefore in charge of the license bureau, said he deprecated that a license had obtained a license to wed in Maryland 30 years ago, ought to be able to get a second license without any difficulty.

Mercy for 20-Year-Old Murderess Who Killed "Dad" "Ever since my mother told me about how my father treated her I have not thought much of him, and when he sent for me and I came here and found him to be the unspoiled kind of man he was, I would have died rather than stay near him. He deserted her and tried to ruin me." This was a part of the testimony of 20-year-old Isabelle Barentine, who, after spending nine days with her father, Thomas Hayward, 1153 N. Mount street, killed him because he made improper proposals to her, Mrs. Barentine was found guilty of manslaughter with recommendation for mercy and was sentenced to two years in the Mugshot Penitentiary by Judre St. Tuesday After sitting stoic-like through the hours when the District Attorney had outlined his version of the fatal shooting of her father and hearing Mrs. Lillian Ballard, the common-law wife of the dead man, the only eye-witness to the shooting, testify that she had shot her father without provocation or cause, she tools the stand and told a story that held the man's attention, and then silence and perhaps so changed the minds of the twelve men who sat in judgment on her that they made what might have been a murder verdict, manslaughter with a recommendation for mercy. MAYOR DENIES SOUTH HANKERS TO ARREST US Jacksonville, Fla., Head Disagrees With Lester Walton On This Point Beginning her story she told how that when she was three years of age her father, according to her mother, took another woman and left them to their fate. Then her mother died and she shifted about from pillar to post, sometimes finding homes with colored people and sometimes with white until she married. She never had the advantage of the schooling for which she longed, and she never went to school. Last November she received a letter from an aunt stating that her father was looking for her and wanted her to come to see him. Then he wrote her and she decided to come for a short visit. She had never seen him before to know him. FATHER'S HOME RAIDED When she came she said that she found the object of her father's sudden interest in her grew out of the fact that he wanted to dispose of some property that required her signature. He had become involved in a violation of the Volstead law, a still having been found in his home during a raid last fall, and was forced to obtain funds. She had also found her father living openly with Mrs. Lillian Ballard, whose husband, she said, was still living. Then she decided to make her visit as short as possible. At the end of the first week, she requested her father to supply the money for her return trip, and he responded to her request to for several days, when he changed his attitude and began courting her to remain with him. Thursday night *preceding* the murder she realized "how low down he was," she stated. That night he came up to her room, and after awakening her, made proposals which excited her to almost uncontolerable anger. He told her that she was making a fool of herself by staying down there in North Carolina with her (Continued on page 5) **MCKAY IN RUSSIA** Moscow, Feb. 6—Claude McKay, well-known poet, who is here to attend the Inter-American Festival of Writers, affiliated with the Conjunjiusis, is popular among the Russian people.

With a monster crowd of 10,000 persons on hand at the aviation field yesterday to see a woman handle a plane, Miss Coleman treated the spectators to a thrill not on the program. Both men and women watching the take-off gasped when the big plane hated some 300 feet in the air, and started in a nose dive for the earth again. For some unknown reason, it was said, the engine had stalled. Horror was written in every face when it was realized that this was an accident and not a stunt. Air-dome workers first on the spot when the machine touched the ground. It found it totally demolished by the fall, and pulled Miss Coleman, apparently body from the angled mass of wreckage. The escape from death was miraculous. Physicians called, worked on her, and found a broken leg and many body bruises. Whether there are any internal injuries could not be determined then. As soon as Miss Coleman had regained consciousness and realized her predicament, she begged physicians to "patch her up" enough to fly 25 miles in order not to be found crowded waiting to see the menaces. Bessie Coleman is an Abdaham girl who won her pilot's license in France a little over a year ago. Since coping to America she has had successful flights in New York and Chicago. She is connected with an Oakland auto firm and planned to open an aviation school here. This Point Jacksonville, Fl., Feb. 6. After being shown an article in the *Aero-American* of last week in which Lester Walton declares that police in Southern cities are always junking to arrest colored people, especially if they happen to be from the North, Acting Mayor W. J. Baker made the following comment: "Our police have never been accused of arresting anyone without cause. It has always occurred to me that there are as many white as colored prisoners before the courts each month. "We do not have any race troubles in this city. We have some very healthy Negroes who have always co-operated with the officers to the fullest extent. I can say truthfully that the Negroes are in no more danger in Jacksonville than are white people. When instructions are given to police for the enforcement of any law, ordinance or order, no distinction is made as to race or color. WRIGLEY NO K. K. K.

The shine on Dilsey's face made the kitchen range, which had just been polished, hang its head with Ime and the expression thereon was a cross between a puzzle and a frown, as she asked Aunt Dimah the questions which she promptly answered herself.

Aunt Dinah's face was full of indignation and the glance she swept upon Dibsey might easily have wished her.

Miss Nelson don' b'long to no fambly ub quality no how." Dilsey could stand some things—indeed she knew better than to take audible exception to anything Aunt Dinah said, and she rarely dissented from any opinion the old woman explashed. But—Miss Nelson was the idol of her young heart and the apple of her big, bright eyes. She would defend Miss Nelson to the very last ditch. Backing nearer to the door, she took up the cudgel of defense. "Miss Nelson knows a heap no than some of the old quality folks, anyway." Alarmed at her own tone, she simmered down a bit and continued as meekly as her indignation would permit. "Miss Nelson done' graduated from college an' she knows mo' than some men, I tell you.

Taint no worm black folks brung from Afrika made white folks heath lazy, chile. Be worm dat bilaziness in to white folks, honey, stung en right artier Gawd made Adam and Eve." When Aunt Dinah finished her speech, she was still shaking her anger at Dilsey, as though she were trying to press her words in the child's brain. Dilsey, a bit frightened at the old woman's intensity, stood at a respectful distance from her and listened to every but she was by to means convinced by the argum, to mind and heart. "Anyhow," Dinah, "she replied, if affulful folks didn't rely make white folks lazy by bringing them from Africa with 'em, they spreadin' tuber'tis among white folks here, so the poor things are dvin' les like sheep." "What in de wur? is tuber-clesis? Dat showly is some new kin' ub sickness, I ain't nuber hear tell ub tuber-clesis befor. It sounds lak it's a new-fashioned fober, ain't it?" For goodness sake, Aunt Diah, you showly has heard of tuber-clesis. Miss Nelson said that igaint 'people call tuber-clesis consumption." The slightest reflection upon her intelligence cured the old woman grief and she allowed Dibsy to go no further in her treatise on tuberulosis.

BUDD FINDS 'HUFFY'S' PROTOTYPE IN ANCIENT ROME Says A Certain Greek There Conducted A School For Scullions lions A few nights ago, I retired but found myself not at all sleepy. I decided that I would read myself into the arms of Wendy. As it happened, the book chosen from my little library, was a volume containing some of the Satires of Juvenal. I feel that I ought to beg Huffington's parion here, for it is well known that he disapproves of Negroes or the descendants of Negroes monkeying with Latin. I felt quite "sheepish" about the matter, but most of us like to sin at least a little. Now it has been for a long time a custom of mine, when I have read interestedly and laboriously, to make for my amusement and mental pleasure, and to draw any deduction which does not seem to violate the laws of logic. Suddenly I felt my interest quickened and my humble faculties became more alert, and as I finished the paragraph, I could not help but exclaim "Great Caesar's Ghost!" Is it possible that so long ago, somebody was kicking on his body's hand of education? Why? He was a Roman officer. Burghardt was the father of [p]l kickers. But unless the translation is poor and incorrect, Juvenal was having his say about one Prof. Trypherus—who, judging by his name, must have been a Greek who was running a sort of school for making selections. Prof. or perhaps SUPERVISOR Trypherus had soft wooden towels, which he used to demonstrate to students the way of carving so they could shine with the best, when serving at the feasts of the rich and powerful. No doubt, just like Hoffy, he expanded myself upon the "Edu- DUNE CENTRAL AVENUE, near If Good Pictures You Want to See, PROGRAM FOR WEEK BEGINN Monday and Tuesday— "SPITF With All Star Col A Western Melodrama wi "SPEED" No. 10, starring Also Harold Lloy RAYMOND DALY, presents OLAT IGGS, BILLY ARNETE, JAZZ WAR E WASHINGTON, JOSEPHINE JON COLO JONES—THE WORLD FAM EW WARDROBE—BEAUTIFUL GLASS T 1300 Block Pennsylvania 1300 Block Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, D.

But I had trouble with my comparisons. Trypherus certainly could not be compared with our colored supervisors. He was not running this school for his OWN people. He was evidently operating it, at least chiefly, for the lower class. Even Trypherus, I conclude, would have been a little bit careful about what he described for the people of his own class. Then, one can not carry the comparison too far with Huffy, Tyrpherus, unlike him was exploiting a people of a land that was alien. Nor of course can one compare Huffy with Juvenal, for Juvenal was a literary light. One of the best men in his line, of that or any other man, he was of good Roman blood. He was evidently poor for he complained about insignificant place at the tables of the gluttonous rich. He only had one slave perhaps. And then maybe he was billions, envious, or jaundiced. Anyhow he was not getting like our great State supervisor, $3,000.00 per year and expenses. But after the breakdown of my comparisons, there was yet left for me what he objected obvious and logical. For he had to have been men thoughtful and able enough, to oppose and complain about the systematic degradation of the souls of men whether in empire or republic. But I was becoming drowsy and soon I slept. Sometimes during that night, I dreamed a dream. I seemed to see the figure of fifty, clad in a suit newly white-washed and humbled by the Negro, and humbled by the great thrusting his hands into the great in a dam, through which water was pouring. Behind the dam, and pushing streams against it, were great rivers of enlightenment, human progress, and advancement. I turned again and heard his fronzed voice calling for Leonidas and the others.

Buy By The Pound Buy your meats, foodstuffs, coal and ice by the pound. First assemble what the price is per pound, pint, quart or bushel. Look carefully at the scales and see if they are in proper balance. Note the weight indicated of what you are purchasing. If you do that, you can readily tell if you are receiving the full amount in weight for the price asked. Do not get into stores and ask for 10 dollars worth of this, 10 cents worth of that, and 25 cents worth of the other. But, first find out what the price of sugar or butter, or potatoes, or tea or meat, or candy, or fish or of whatever else you are buying and then see to it that you get full weight. Watch the Scales If steak is 25e per pound and you want half a pound, you are to pay 13 cents for it, but he will note that you get eight ounces of steak. If candy is 40 cents you want pound, you want "10 cents worth," ask for a quarter of a pound, and watch to see that you receive four ounces. Hundreds of stores daily repair large dishonest profits from the thousands of colored people because of the awful fault of them in going into the business houses "to buy" and asking for a dime's or a quarter's worth of this, that and the other, instead of asking the price per pound of what they want and then indicating the amount in weight they wish to buy and then being attentive to see that they get the full amount paid for. Many Dealers Honest Not all dealers are dishonest, but a big share of them, and are enriching themselves by selling short weights in the manner above described and they get away with it easy, because of the bad fault of a large share of our people in not first finding out the price per pound, quart, and bushel of what they want to purchase; by their failure to touch the scales and measure, and to figure the price for themselves. We have many honest merchants who deal squarely with their customers and who often take pains to advise their trade of the prices per pound or measure of soft customer clothing. They amount warranties, and who also give you every chance to see that you have all that you pay for. NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION TO MEET Evanson, Hk, Feb. 6—(Special) A call was issued here today by President Edward I. Jones of the National Baptist Convention calling the Executive Board to meet at Indianapolis, Ind. June 13-18.

There has not been any agitation between the races in this city for years, and everything moves along harmoniously. It is the opinion here that this man DeSayles proposes to settle in Baltimore, and wants to draw attention to himself by telling these falsehoods.

Lockerman Altho no official action has been taken to fill the principalship of the Teachers Training School, left vacant by the death of Dr. Jos. H. Lockerman, friends of Harry, T. Pratt, without his knowledge and probably without his consent are booming him for the position. No action will be taken for some time, it is believed, and in the meanwhile the school will run on as formerly under the direction of Supervisor Frank Russell who is head of the elementary and Training School. The situation is complicated, it is believed because of the fact that the School Board is considering the merging of the white Training School with Hopkins, and the Colored Training School with Morgan College. Friends of Mr. Pratt point out that he is well prepared to direct the work of the Normal School, and is highly respected by principals and teachers.

They could not tell the policemen from any one else when they ar- rived and as a result they each contributed $20 to the public treasury in the Southern Police Station Monday.

"Yes," she said, "Alfred Smith came and all of this happened." The police took the couple to the hospital and they are looking for Alfred Smith. WORK TURNS ON JAMES B. ELLIS Mrs. Ida Parks, 1465 Jefferson street, was perhaps the happiest witness that ever took the stand in Part I of the Criminal Court last Friday when she constantly had to suppress the Visible glee she was getting out of telling how James B. Ellis got humored in trying to bum her. Ellis sat on the prisoner's bench and maintained the last styles of woe and hard luck as she handed out his prizys in his chumps. According to the testimony Ellis and another man had tried the film-dumming game on Mrs. Parks. Meeting her on the street he began a Ralpholde Valentino stunt which she said fairly took her off her feet. He flushed a bank book that seemed bursting with big bills while his confederate pulled the old time finding of the fat wallet. Thick, Mrs. Parks saw the big idea and things to move fast and burst with energy under to change some of the big money for the whack she was asked to produce $100. She decided to bail her prey well and she took him to her home and incidently let him view the promised land in the form of her bank book. Then she told him to meet her down town and they would go to the bank. He was "Johnny on the spot," and met her at the appointed hour. Then DR. BOYLE SUED DR.

She had depleped his pocketbook she then went to the bank where by previous arrangements some minions of the law were waiting to receive him, but not until she had made his woe complete by even drawing the money right before his eyes that he thought he was going to get.

Richard found a number of boys engaged in a fight in which one of the boys was out with a pen knife. He was tried in the Juvenile Court and committed to Cheltenham but through Atty. Roy S. Bond his case was appealed, and when the testimony was presented Judge Stanton stated that the practice of twisting these charges to fit the jurisdiction of Juvenile Court and interpreting these boys for long terms was an It was pointed out that the shortest term that a boy could serve when sent to one of these institutions was 17 months, and that in many cases they had to stay until they were twenty-one, and men coming into the criminal court with post crime records and committing much greater offenses got sentences for 20 and 60 days. There was another case recently in the courts where a man and a boy were charged jointly with larceny. The boy was tried in the Juvenile Court and committed to Cheltonham indefinite, while the man was given a 30-day sentence. The fault lies not in the administration of the Juvenile Court, it is declared, but in the construction of the law governing its power and jurisdiction. The Juvenile Court can only commit boys to these institutions on the technical charge of their being minors without proper care. This blanket charge is applied to the court of charge coming into the court and the general rule is to send offenders in until they are of age, however trivial the charge. The more fortunate boys, however, are sometimes placed in homes or otherwise paroled. This law seems to have been made especially in interest of these institutions and without regard to the best interest of the boy or girl. The whole question of dealing with juvenile offenders should receive more consideration from leaders in the military, it was pointed out. FAMILY LOSES TWO Consin Dies While Undertaker Was Preparing Body For Burial While an undertaker was pre- paring the body of her cousin, Morris Parker, for shipment to his old home at Fredericksburg, N.Y. He was being sold suddenly from a homorrhage at her home, 1827 E. Eager street, Sun- day night. Her sister, Lala, who is seriously ill, was not told of the deaths.

To refer to them as murderers and ignoramuses, and to urge Attorney General Daugherty to destroy the whole organization is neither wise nor necessary. The "Mammies" Monument.

THE FORUM Monroe Trotter Favors Kelly Miller Conference Plan I regard the call of Prof. Kelly Miller for a united race conference, as timely. The National Equal Rights League had just previously sent invitations to the four national organizations specializing against lynching for a conference of the president and secretary each to meet in response for a program in fighting lynching, disfranchisement segregation. We the League consider that Prof. Miller is a very suitable person to issue a call for a general convention conference and that more success in fostering a real racial get-together will be attained by an individual like Prof. Miller issuing the call. Meaning the conference of officers of organizations can proceed. WM. MORGEO TROTTER Boston, Mass. Dr. Woodson Would Not Join In Any Conference According to Kelly Miller Plan in respect of members of January 13, in regard to Kelly Miller Conference I must refuse to make any comment whatever on the proposal of race leaders for the solution of the race problem. Probably you are aware of the fact that I have never made my living as a race leader and I am not recognized as qualified to function in this capacity. The race leaders, moreover, would consider it unwise to seek any opinion from me, and I am sure that I would be unceremoniously expelled from such a conference, should I obtrude myself thereon. My task is that of a simple worker trying to preserve the records of the Negro race, an undertaking in which I have been opposed by every race leader of any consequence in the United States except Boone T. Washington, who has sufficient vision to appreciate the value of the written record. C. G. WOODSON Director Association Study of Washington. D. C.

He continually lamented the lack of literary aspiration among us in the city which he deeply loved. He believed in the black man, and labored earnestly to induce the black man to believe in himself. Where there we "vision" the people perish. If we do not earnestly stare to lead our people from the belly and the back to the mind of ideas, we certainly perish. The most of Dr. Johnson's objectionable "necularities" are explained when one recalls the sad condition of the try in this city. With him it was a fifty year's effort of proclaiming "Son of man stand upon thy feet." It was a tireless and energetic effort for the widest of education. It is this phase of his noble and successful life which should be measured. All our secret and fraternal orders, as well as our citizens generally, could not lend themselves to a more helpful agency of racial enlightenment, than that of such a great and good man as Harvey Johnson.

The life of the hats is about six months, and when he is thru with it the hat possesses $3 original cost and $38 tips. The tipping cost is becoming less every day. There is a gradual increase in the number of persons who are standing four-square with the travelers and others who are conducting an organized campaign against the tipping system.

His mother was a slave. She did all she could to help her children. They lived in a log cabin with only a dirt floor and only rings to sleep in. They had a door in which the family crawled in and a hole in which the car might come in when she got ready. His mother did all of the cooking for slaves. Sometimes she would go out and get a chicken in the night and cook it and call her children to eat it. In those days the slaves were not allowed to read or write, but in the evening Douglas would steal away and wait for the little white boys to come from school. He asked them in a nice way to teach him what they had learned. Then they would tell him they would give him pennies, marbles and other things that boys like to play. A long time after the he was sold the mother sold him. His mistress soon found that he wanted to learn, so she taught him until his master taught it out. By this time Frederick Douglass had received enough education to陪 him in becoming famous.-Theodore Miles, 42 Gay street, Denville, NJ Douglass Cost $750 Frederick Donghss was one of the most distinguished men of Maryland. The date of his birth is not really known, but it is said that he was born February 14, 1817, at Tuckahoe, Maryland. At ten years of age his master "dent" him to a friend in Baltimore. Yielding to opportunity his mistress began to begin an important progress that such instructions were soon discontinued. But, alas, discontinuance was late. He had gotten a start. The Gilde and a copy of the "Columbian Orator" were the chief books of study. He escaped from Baltimore to New Bedford Mass. There he became a factor in the local colored church, and was soon licensed as a local preacher. In 1841 an Anti-Slavery Convention was held, which he attended made a speech and so great an availment was made of impression that the agent of the Society for Massachusetts. In 1845 he was invited to England to deliver an address in behalf of the Anti-Slavery cause. The Englishmen raised $750 to gain his freedom, and $2,500 to set him up in the newspaper business. In 1871 he was appointed assistant secretary of the San Domingo Commission, 1872 President Grant nominated him as member of the retirational Council of the District of Columbia. He died "in action with his armour" on February 29, 1855, and was buried on February 25, at the Metro-City Cemetery in the City of Aliso Bizzarri Michel, 7th grade, Cantroville, Maryland. Douglass' Determination To Frederick Douglass, born February 12, 1817, at Tuckahoe, Tailow County, Maryland. Previous to the year of 1841, Douglass had made many speeches in Rhode Island, but had been accompanied by friends. On one occasion, he was in Grafton, Rhode Island alone. There was neither house, full, church, nor market place in which he could speak to the people, but he was determined to go. He went to a nearby hotel and borrowed a dinner bell. With this bell in his hand he went through the principal streets ringing it and crying out, "Notice! Frederick Douglass, recently a slave, will be brought on American Slavery, on Grafton common, this evening at seven o'clock. Those who would like to hear of the great workings of slavery, by one of the slaves, are respectfully invited to attend." Douglass himself brought a large audience, after which the largest church in town was open to him. Helen Hammond, 817 Vine street, City, Class 3-1 B High School. Douglass Greater Than Lincoln Frederick Douglass was born a slave at Tuckahoe, Tahoe County, Md., February 1817. He was the illegitimate son of a white man and a school slave named Benjamin. He obtained his freedom in 1838 by running away to New York City and then to New Bedford, Mass. When 24 he set about lecturing against slavery. He became such an eloquent speaker that colored and white people would travel great distance to hear him. He once toured Great Britain speaking in a room filled of his race with President Lincoln, Lincoln was considered by many to be the greatest man of his day. This true Lincoln was born poor, ignorant and Postal laws and regulations forbid postmasters or local postal employees to repair locks for lock boxes or other mail equipment, sent to Washington. Eighteen thousand such locks were required during the calendar year. The average cost of repairing each lock was 6½ cents. In addition to the repairing of locks, the mail equipment ships in Washington manufactured in 1852 and located in the calendar year of 1822, an increase of nearly 200 per cent over the number of locks manufactured in 1821.

Douglas was born a slave member of an oppressed race with the door of opportunity closed tight against him. He was forced to batter down the door of almost unmountable obstacle and he his crocodile tails would be compressed by his white crites. This he did with honor to his race and himself. Surely he was a greater man than Lincoln. He was an abolitionist, orator, statesman and journalist. He died February 2, 1895. There stands a monument in Rochester, N.

Career of Douglass In a little rude but at Tuckahoe, near Ester, in Talbot County, Md., in the year of 1817, a colored boy came into the world by the name of Frederick Augustus Washington Bulley, who was born a slave to Capt. Aaron Anthony. At the age of seven Frederick was taken from the cabin of his grandmother on Colonel Lloyd's plantation to live. Now no longer under the care of his grandmother he was turned over to the merces of his Frederick Douglass What nobler spirited victim of servitude and oppression could be found? He, although uneducated, was ambitious, upright in character, and determined in his will. We, the men and women of tomorrow, have the advantage over Doughless, because we have parental advice, but he, poor lad, did not. His mother was a slave on another plantation. His education was gotten while he was a slave in Baltimore. And after he escaped, did he settle down to live in peace and happiness with his wife and enjoy his freedom? No, he was not self-centered, so he strove to help gain the freedom of those in servitude by first engaging himself as a lecturer for the American Anti-Slavery Society and then by editing the New National List in Washington.

Douglass Great- est Marvlander Frederick Doughask was one of the greatest men ever born in the State of Maryland. He was born February 14, 1817, in a little village called Tuckahoe, Mad. He was a born slave, his mother was a Negro slave, and it is said that his father was a white man. When he was a slave his one desire was to gain an education. His mistress used to teach him lessons until his master found it our, and he then made her quit teaching him lessons. When he tired of the brutal treatment as a slave he disguised himself as a sailor and escaped from his jail in Baltimore and went to Bedford, Mass. As years went by he became a great orator and public speaker. He died February 20, 1895, at his home in Washington, D. C—Written by Charles Birkhead, 254 Forrest street. Frederick Douglass' Childhood Frederick Doughas was born about the year of 1817, in Tuxekaua, a barren little district upon the eastern shore of Maryland. Best known for wretchedness, poor shovelling, and untreatments of his mother he did not know if he saw her, and heard little about her, and only seen her a very few times in his life. His mother was employed on a plantation some distance from the place where he was raised. His master was cared for his children during early childhood. he was heaten and starved, that he would fight the dogs for the bones that were thrown to them. As he grew older and could work he was given very little to eat, overworked and beaten. as he grew still older and realized the need for a better life, his very soul revolted, and a determination was formed to be free or to die attempting it. At the age of ten he was sent to Baltimore to a lady by the name of Sophia Auld. He was sent there to be a house servant. She became very much interested in him, and immediately began to teach him his letters. She also had to be a teacher. The husband of the mistress, finding it out, was very angry and put a stop to it.

The executive committee of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World estimates that profits taken by fake stock vendors during the past year aggregated $600,000,000. There may be uncertainty as to whether the large number of suckers thus evidenced is due to the prevalence of fraud or whether the prevalence of fraud has been the result of suckers, but there certainty that the supply of fraud and the demand for it are too great. Career of Douglass In a little rude hut at Tuckahoe, near Easton, in Talbot County, Md., in the year of 1817, a colored boy came into the world by the name of Frederick Augustus Washington Halley, who was born a slave to Capt. Auron Anthony. Once Frederick was taken from the cabin of his grandmother at Tuckahoe to his master's residence on Colonel Lloyd's plantation to live. Now no longer under the care of his grandmother he was turned over to the mercies of his master's cook, with whom he does not seem to have been a favorite of his grandmother, years old, which made his heart ache because he did not even have the opportunity to look upon her dead body. At ten years of age he was sent to a relative of his master, named Hugh Auld. Here he enjoyed all the privileges of a slave. And even the mistress would teach him to read and write. Although this was not a routine because her husband objected. In a few years he escaped from slavery and went to New York City. Here he married Miss Anna Murray. He thought Miss It safe for him to stay longer, he goes to New Bedford, Mass., and changes his name to Lincoln. His later career was spent in making addresses, traveling, publishing papers, visiting and holding prominent offices. He died February 29, 1955, at his home on Annapolis, Delaware, near Wintersville—Benjamin E. Barber, Lincoln High School, Glenville, Md. Douglass an Inspiration The life of Frederick Douglas should be an inspiration to every boy and girl who desires to accomplish something in life and make a name for himself. Though born in slavery and handicapped by numerous obstacles, he rose superior to his peers and became a world that he would play his part with honor and distinction. He early felt the need of education and though he had few books and only occasional instruction he made rapid progress. Desiring to escape from the bonds of his family, away from escaping to New York, though the innate honesty of the man after becoming successful, headed a movement to repay his owners. Having known what it was to be a slave, he devoted his life to the cause of freedom, gaining friends for the cause by his demeanor and attitude, and also by the publication of a paper known as the North Star. The latter part of his life spent in Washington was a very useful one, besides being a public lecturer, serving as a Presidential appointee on several very important positions, one as recorder of deeds, one as recorder of the age of 22 years. It is pleasing to note one of our public schools has been named in his honor—Samuel Tinsley, 496 E. Federal St. School 113. Frederick Douglass was one of the most progressive men of Maryland. He was born 14th of February, 1817, at Tuckahoe, near Easton, Talbot County, Maryland. His mother was a slave, and his father was a white man. He never saw his mother at Tuckahoe, nor Easton, Talbot County. When he was ten years old his master "tout" him to a friend in Baltimore. There he worked at a trade as ship-carpenter. When he was fifteen he was allowed to hire his own time, earning three dollars a week. As a small boy, Frederick had a book thirst for knowledge, which he had stimulated by hearing his master read the Bible. His children were the Bible and the "Columbian Orator." He succeeded in escaping from slavery by securing a "pass" belonging to a sailor; he managed to get to New Bedford, Mass. He then booked to charge his name from the On 1841 he attended an anti-slavery convention, and was appointed an agent of the Society for Massachusetts. This new field of work was greatly advanced. He was Presidential elector for the State of New York. He died on the evening of February 25, 1855, at his home in Anacostia. He found was a pathetic man. It took place at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church. "The elements in Douglass were so mixed up that all might stand up and say, this was man."—Miss Blanche C. Kennedy, 9th grade, Centreville, Maryland. RECIPROCITY It happened at the session of the Kansas City, Mo., parole board. Sixty-five men on parole from sentences in the county fall or the penitentiary were being questioned by the Circuit Court judges as to whether the various provisions of the paroles were being observed. Jesse Harris, was one of those working now, going out of parole Harris the courtroom judge. Thomas R. Buckner, white, a member of the parole board admonished: "You be a good boy, Jesse." "You do the same, judge." returned the exprisoner. A Tactful Answer From Harpers-- A certain woman is blessed to an unusual degree with both discrimination and tact. The first of these admirable qualities she has displayed by her two marriages. Her first husband was a minister, a most delightful man. He died, and after a lapse of some years she married his only brother, a successful lawyer. Now on her library deft stands a picture of the first partner of her joys and one day the other asked who it was. "That," said the hostess, with evident emotion, "is a picture of my husband's brother, who died some years ago, and who was very dear to us both!" "THE MAN WHO WOULD BE WHITE!" Protected By The Kelly Newspaper Feature Service BY AUBERY BOWSER BUICK BUICK FOURS SIXES Auto Outing Co. BUICK DEALERS SINCE 1908 21 EAST NORTH AVENUE PHONES VErnon 1139----1140 BIXQPISI—NELSON Holmes, a light-complex Negro, was born and reared in California. At the age of twenty-two, he left his home town and came to New York. Beginning as office boy, he at optimum age and supported the Ligna Coffee Company. To friends, associates and employer, Holmes was believed to be white. Arriving home from his Wall street office one night, he saw a beautiful young colored girl. Being pursued by three drunners, Southern white soldiers and protects innumerable Holmes offers to accompany the girl to the subway, but she refuses. "Shall I ever ever see you again," she says. But the girl was gone and Holmes felt a longing for the girl and his race. One more moment and he would have confessed to her that he was a "proper" weeks of the day. The Coffee Company raised Holmes salary from ten to twelve thousand dollars. CHAPTER EIGHT For a breathless instorm he held her hand, his fame streaming with tears. He forget his surroundings, forget himself, forget everything in the world but that Filmore Francis told him, and he would give his life to be alone. At one time he might have controlled himself and hidden what was in his heart. But seeing her in tears and prayers was too much for him. He swept away the last barrier between them, and pride and ambition were on his mind. He sought her eyes, but she kept them turned away and upended as if she wore him but half aware of him, and as if she was still unsteeped to But as she was still appealing to God in her trouble. "Elipson" he paused. "Speak to me, sir." "Let me go," she said in a low, throbbing voice: "let me go if you are a man." He released her hands. He felt that he had roughly intruded on her privacy. What could he know of her troubles, he of another race? He felt ashamed, hounded; her heart was a temple from which he was forever shut out. "Liss Francis," he said, as she turned away, "he me before you go." "I have no wish to hear you," she said, with a took of cold contempt. "I only ask that you, as a man and a gentleman, cease following me about." "Following you," he exclaimed, hurt to his heart. "You don't understand, you don't understand at all. I didn't know you were here. I have come here time and again to work on my own troubles and have troubles. I happened to see you, you seemed in distress. I know that should have gone away, but when I saw that it was you 1-1-1-oh, let me help you." "I need no help," she said, again, cooking upward. "But you don't realize, you don't understand, you cannot know what it means to me to see you in trouble and not letting me raise a hand up," she all shut out of your life. "You should be," she said quickly. "And why?" he asked absurdly, on the whirl of emotion he had lost its power to think. "All this time he had been walking behind her as she went through the trees. When she was about to reach the pathway he asked her again. Why?" "Need tell you," she asked. "You are a meet of intelligence and you know America all your life." "Oh!" he exclaimed his heat ignoring as if cold order had been insisted upon it. "You mean—you need it." "I mean," she said, pausing at the pathway, "that at heart you are like the humans you saved me from the first time I saw you. The only difference is that you are better educated and more refined in your experiences. If my brother pursued you as sister you have pursued me you would try to murder him, knowing that an injury in the country would requit you." Nelson Holmes was so taken back after conversations that at first he could not find words. He had offered help to a body and she had called him a libertine and a lycopene one breath. "You-you!" he laughed madly, "you think I am white. I am not life—I am only passing—I am THE MASTER OF THE MASTER bink!" Elinor Francis stepped rooted to the spot, with open mouth and startling eyes. The sight of her brought Holmes back to his sonnes; he realized what he had done, but the new madman within him carried him on "There!" he said to the stupid girl, "It's out—it had to come out I don't care. It wighed on me, it has tortured me ever since I first saw you. I did it from the world for years, but I had to tell you—you, Elinor Francis." With her eyes fixed on him in sincerely amazement, Elinor Francis sat down on a bench by the pathway. He paced to good fro before her. "Elinor Francis," he said slowly, as one who begins a long story. I was in California thirty-two years ago. My grandfather told these two men in California Presentation. He stalked out a gold claim and, despite they did him out of it. Those were wild chines. The trial to press his little to his claim. The was a gun light and he was shot in a behind and killed, after killing three of his assailants. His widow, my grandmother, fled to his his with her infant son, my me. "Somehow or other my grandmother raised my father. She was a remarkable woman. As a matter of fact, she was not a colored woman, she was pure Spanish. My grandfather was half colored, half in to English. My father was the forebear of fact, she was a like a woman. He married a light woman. I was the only child. All that the English in the blood came out in me; they tell me I look more English than most Englishmen. I bet." "After the war enough colored people defied our one way to form a little settlement. They clod out, don't live in people in such a hamlet, usually do. Something they were bounded by orders but those colored had never been in the Civil War. And how hard to defend themselves." "One of the colored families had a beautiful daughter who had received a good education in the East. She fell in love with my father; they married and I was born. My father died when I was five years old. I hardly remember him; I only recall he used to call me a little Englishman. "Of course no schools were in that part of the country, but my mother's education made up for that. She had been trained to give up the idea to marry my father. When I was born he named me Nelson—Horatio Nelson, in fact, but I later shortened it to Nelson. On his death he told my mother to implant in me the unconquerable spirit of the man I was after. "At the training my mother had acquired for teaching she applied to me. I learned rapidly and by the time I was fourteen I was really well educated for my years. When I was seventeen my father died." "I let the hounds. The craze to see the world possessed me. So I beat my way up the coast and through Canada. For three years I lived in Montreal and Toronto. My nature and my mother's training I was an insatiable reader, and with all my knuckling around I got a fair I want to the library and stayed. He pussed, hoping against hope, there till after six.

I even attended a Canadian university for two years. Then I came back to the States. I "reached the age of twenty-two, a voting, irresponsible youth with a man's experience. Almost without realizing it I was seeing less and less of colored people. Generally I was taken for a white man. I saw what a coloured boy had to contend with. I saw my people distressed, ill-founded, possessed grumply, I had no ambitions and could not escape the fact that the street way to succeed as I wished to was to drop colored people altogether and be white. "After I was white in color, hair and features; looking in a mirror I seemed aboard for me to say that I was colored. According to the paradoxical viewpoint of America I was a Negro, but in strict truth I was far removed from the Negro race. There was not enough Negro blood in me to drawn a mosquito. "Of course it didn't come about when I was a Negro, but the ties that bound me to the race were dear and tender. My mother, my father, my childhood, my home, my mental, mood and physical background, my social condition—all were Negro. I felt that in leaving the race of my birth I should be a spitter, running away from the right that other colored boys were facing so murmurantly; that I should be acting the part of a penguin. I would have been a rebel. I wouldn't have been it. But all my people were dead, and the old home had needed far into the past. There was nobody left to care what I did. Before my lay great alternative, should I remain in the Negro race with every door open? Or should I be white, and go onigir the success that awaited me? One day, with my mind full of the struggle, I took a walk through Wall street to the water front. I saw huge buildings, pile on pile, memorials to American dating and resourcefulness. I saw the soothing water, the walk with children, the mainly beans. Then I walked along the waterfront and saw great ships leading and unloading—their names, were like music from far off, romantic countries: La Palma, La Palma, Correjo, Santa Cruz, Hermosa, Esmeralda—I can see them now. "It came to me like a flash that all this glory and romance would be shut off from me as a Negro, that I should lead a stunted life, without the incentive to great things. And there on the hills I made up no mind to be wild." "That was just ten years ago, I got a job with the Liam Coffee importing Company as a messenger," I had buried the bridge of race, behind me. I worked like a Trojan, determined to rise. My work was ever at four o'clock. From the office I went to the Library and stayed there till after six. I went to dinner and then to night-school. Then I came home and studied till in the morning. In quick succession I mastered setography, typewriter.

I asked me work by turns in all the documents of the Liam Company. My goal was a salesman's job, and I pursued it functionally for fifteen hours a day. "My work here fruit: I became a salesman. But I did not relax: I worked harder than ever. I had to work hard to get away from my whenever I stopped to think of anything but work, my secret would rise up before me and I'd be depressed. So I had no pleasure apart from that of working day and night on coffee. "Then the old Lord Nelson spirit came to me. I got the notion of becoming sales-manager, and almost before I got it, made sales-manager. It was two years ago, my mother prize dangled before me, and so help me God, I would train it. I would become a vice- president. I would be the Llama president. Then I would go higher still. I would whip rival houses into line, I would form a great merger, owning millions of acres in the tropics. I would dominate the coffee market. Emperor of Coffee? I could do it; I know it. Emperor of coffee." Nelson Holmes paused in his narrative. He strode up and down the path, his big pistol his checks, his coat flashing. His great drap still had power to sweep him; he had lived with it too long to forget it at all once. Elmer Frames sat gazing at him with dilated eyes, her breath coming and going rapidly. Holmes came to himself, and stopped in front of her. "Elmer Frames," he said, after a long look at her, "that is the story of Nelson Holmes. In the chase of ambition I left the race of my life, and of the highest pinnacles of the financial world, and ordinary millionaires would go aside at my frown. "But nothing in this life proceeds exactly according to plan. Chance steps in and one puff blows down our proudest castles.

The instant I saw you were coloured, I realized that I was not really white. At the sight of the ruffians all the Negro blood in me bled up. If all the officials of the Llama Coffee Company had been present it would have been the same. "Then I talked with you. You thought I wished to presume upon what I had just done for you; and your suspicion was quite natural, as you did not know the real state of things.

When you left I was relieved, in a way, for I felt that it would have been suicided to tell you. I went back to my work, and tried to put you out of my mind, as you had doubled up put me."

Mr. John Wick, of Monomone' Falls, Wisconsin, did not and is a well man today. In September, 1918, he wrote: "I have been a user of Pe-ru-na for nearly twenty years. I had caurath of the stomach for ten years. Nothing did me any good. I grew worse until a friend advised me to try Pe-ru-na. While using the first bottle, I felt I had found the right medicine. I am entirely cured. My weight was down to 135 pounds and now I weigh 195 pounds. I have used very little medicine for the last years." The condition known as catarrhal is not confined to the nose and throat. It may be found wherever there are mucous membranes and is responsible for a multitude of troubles. Coughs and colds are catarrhal as well as stomach and bowel disorders. Do as John Wick did. Keep Peru-na in the house. It stimulates digestion, aids in throwing off the poisonous secretions, enriches the blood, increases the resistance to disease and promotes good health generally. Insist upon having genuine Peru-na in either tablet or liquid form. Your dealer has it.

McGeohan in New York Herald Harry Wills is a steward by trade, and in the vicinity of the Chichester docks they will tell you that Harry Wills is one of the most earnest and accomplished stevorees that ever drew double pay by sheer merit along the banks of the Hudson. If you thing that it is an easy matter to win distinction as a stevore try it yourself, just to get a notion of what work really is in the raw state. The capacity for work which was born in Harry Wills was so tremendous that after eight or ten hours she chose the Hudson and felt less instead of tired. Consequently he took up boxing to help kill time in the evenings. Handling the average heavyweight seemed much easier than handling the casks and boxes which he piled in neat rows in the holds of departing vessels. It came to him Harry Wills has attained almost as much distinction as a prize fighter as he did as a stevore. He has attained the position of "logical contender" for the heavyweight championship. But this, it seems, is as high as he can go in Fistina, William, Duke of Middleton, has drawn the invisible color line against Harry Wills. Harry Wills, on his record along the Chelsea docks is decidedly a more useful citizen than any of the heavyweights scrambling for the next million dollars worth of prize receipts with the customers will conclude for the next heavyweight championship fight. While Jess Willard was riding airily in a cirrus, while Dick Dempsey was being plastered instead of plastering at his trade of plasterer, Harry Wills was rendering considerable assistance to the merchant marine. Personally I do not think that he would have a chance with Bempsy, but quite a number of potential customers do, enough of them to make much of it. Judged on the score of his usefulness to the world in general Wills is entitled to the chance of the boss's end before any of the other contenders. to breakfast, while Presley Phenom stering at his trade of plasterer, Harry assistance to the merchant marine, his would have a chance with Homer, customers do, enough of them make master of his usefulness to the world in nature of the loser's end before any of sey was hopping from brinkham to breakfastroom to dressing room, was being plastered instead of plastering room to trade of plasterer, Harry Wilbs was rendering a trade to the merchant marine, but quite a number of think that Wilbs would have a chance with bromine, but quite a number of personal customers do, enough of them to make a match of it.

William, the Duke of Mudboun, in this instance has removed the jewel of consistency from his ducal iron hat. You will recall that sometime ago the Duke of Mudboun, by special degree, ordered Jack Dempsey, upon the pain of being decorated with the ducal raspberry, to sign articles for a bout with Harry Wills. The same degree ordered Wills to accompany to fight Jack Dempsey. sight an agreeable objection. Now the Duke declares openly that he will not permit the pair to fight in New York because what seems to be the idea? Has the Duke become so displeased with bitsis over something or other that he thinks he should discipline himself? Or was the Duke at the time he issued the first degree merely conversing through his duel cornet, as a chorus? Whatever it is the thing must be rather laffing to Harry Wills and in people of the same color. It looks very much as though the chance at the heavyweight champion was being withheld from those American citizens whose anses were induced to come to this country by very pressing invitation, took considerable inebriations in the form of priests and heroes to get them here.

His misguided zeal has driven him to take the battles that are most certain to bring the game to an end. Perhaps that is the real trouble with this professional prize fight game. There are too many people trying to save it. A Celebrated Case It is not that I think the bempsy-Willis bout will be sporting event than the Tempsy-carpenter bout. Certain that he can whip Wills quite as easily as he can tail Mr. Wilford, and there is every reason in the Mr. Tempsy's faith in his own fists. At best the bout will meekly swell the income of Mr. Mr. Jack Kearns, and enrich to some extent the professions to be dipped upon the edge. Certainly a bout should not be deprived of this opportunity. It is solely that this protest is raised, not on account of the precursions to stage the bout. The position of the Duke of Muldoon in this man quite ridiculous as that of a wrestler who has a rook and cannot let go. The Duke of Muldoon was a wrist should be able to appreciate his own predicament. Perceptions that is why he lies into the ducal frenzy and of his own right. The situation has caused Senator James Walker to cry, and when the Senator starts to oust to more cunning it looks as though he were about to father much which would permit deserving steveteers to get what he, despite color or previous state of servitude and deces from the Duke of Muldoon.

At the best the bout will merely swish the income of Mr. Dempsey and Mr. Jack Kearns, and certainly to some extent the professional promoters who are auxiliary to the bout about. But the main point is that one of the most useful stevederds along the Chiesa docks, will get $50,000 or so for himself, no matter how abruptly he happens to be clipped upon the chin. Certainly a deserving stevederd should not be deprived of this opportunity. It is solely on this account that this protest is raised, not on account of the promoters who are auxiliary to stage the bout. The position of the Duke of Muldowh in this matter seems to be quite clear, of a steveder who has a toe hold on himself and cannot let go. The Duke of Muldowh was a wrestler once and should be able to appreciate his own predicament.

Y., Feb. 5—Wolf Larsen, 174, champ heavy of Denmark, received a foul decision over Kid Norfolk, 175, the Black Thunderbelt, in the second round of their scheduled 12-round main event in the Knick Arena, last night, when Referee Hamil, of Amsterdam, sustained his claim of a low blow, after one inning in the second round. Norfolk had piled up a good lead before the alleged foul blow was struck, scoring a knockout in the first round, when a right hand jolt caught Larsen flush on the jaw and the Danish champion took a count of eight. The majority of the 5,500 crowd that packed the Arena. It is the personal opinion of the writer that Norfolk's blow was not low enough to incapacitate Larsen. A law recently passed by the State Athletic Commission prohibits the promoters from paying a fee of $1,000 for the cause of the injury. It is obviously an easy win or in knockout for the colored boxer if Larsen had gone further, and the majority of the fans seemed to think that Larsen took the easiest way to win, but who has not boxed in some time, was sent up here for trial, it was learned last night. If he made good in the Larsen bout he was to be sent to New York and groomed for the light-heavy title held by Harry Norfolk, it was a few days later and suffer nothing by it. Norfolk had everything last night. He had a pin right hand cross, which connected the only time that it was shot out and nearly out the head off the big Cane. That was that lightning, a good left hand and a short snappy upercut to the body in fighting made Norfolk made Norfolk look like champion M. Y. W.

Harding for Current Fiscal Year ATHLETIC FIELD PLANNED Armory, Swimming Pool, and Indoor Track All To Find Place 'On the Hill' Washington, D. C., Feb. 8.—According to announcement made by Doctor Scott, Secretary-Treasurer of Howard University, when the President of the United States signed the Department of Interior appropriation bill for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1924, be made available for the uses of the Howard University within a limit cost of $157,500.00 a building which will be erected on the University grounds, and which will be "a building for Assembly Hall, Gymnasium, Armory, and Administrative Headquarters for the Health and Ground of Health and Athletic Field." In releasing this information, Boorst Scott states that the dream of the alumni of the University, the students, teachers, and the administrative officers covering a period of nearly twenty years is soon to be realized. In years ago the alumni of the University started a campaign to raise a sum of money to be used towards the erection of a stadium, Congressional action has now made this possible through Governmental instrumentality. In design, the gymnasium building surrounds the elevation overseeing the famous McMillan Park and City Reservoir. Along with the recently erected hall building costing $201,000.00, Howard University is entering upon a period of physical expansion which is adding not only to the beauty of the grounds but is offering to its students as well-class facilities in model direction. There is great joy among the undergraduates of the University particularly that so ambitions a project as the gymnasium and army building and athletic field is to be made available for the department of Physical Education. The athletic field with its concrete stands, together with regulation baseball diamonds, football fields, cinder tracks, and the arrangements to be made in the gymnasium building itself, including an army for the R. O. T. C. Unit, a swimming pool, indoor track, and exercise room, will afford ample facilities for physical development. Effective body-building is back of this program and the Department of Physical Education will be better instructed than ever to provide training for the young teen and women who come to Howard University. "HI" CAGERS SWAMP DUNBAR D. C. QUINT Before the biggest gallery that has witnessed a baster set at the Community House this season, the High School team literally swamped the Dunbar High School aggregation of Washington, D. C., on Friday night 29-14. The game was a searching pace that taxed the vision of the onlookers to follow the course of the baster set at Washington, the baster battled like Tiger's in the "Gibsonites" were their masters both in passing and shooting, especially in the latter department; they eagled a total of 10 baskets from the battle field which was just double the number that the visitors succeeded in corralling. The main drawback in the work of the visitors was that they played principally a long range shooting game instead of a passing game; it was apparent to the initial attacker it would be method they would have been more successful as they were a bigger team for man than the locals. However, much of the credit for the winners goes to Todd who was the real "pain" to the visitors in marksmanness, scoring seven of the 10 field baskets and 5 fouls that trickled through the net in "Tifis" flavor. Short also forgone into the battle by doing some really brilliant work in forward for the winners, while the outstanding stars for Dunbar wore Captain Coates and Trigz in forward.

Smith popped to Foef and Ford dashed forth from the squeeze play with Ridgley who started to the plate. But Foef blocked Ford in the path and whirled and threw the ball into the catcher's mitigation Ridgley as he reached the plate. The Sox failed to score the rest of the game, the game ending with the Chain Company on the long end, 3-1. SPORTS MIRROR By Afro Sports Editor Here is an open letter to Jack Dempsey, Jack Kearns, his manager, and William Moulton, chairman of the New York Boxing Commission. Dear Jacks and Gitt: I see, and fill Moulton has bared Dempsey from meeting Wills for the heavyweight championship of the world. Moulton is a fighting feistman but he is got sense enough to know that if that Black Panther called Harry Wills ever gets in the fight with Moulton is in the black with Moulton is Irish and Dempsey is Scottish Irish, so he jubbles the Irish are sticking together. An' faith, we don't care personally, whether Muldoon loses his pit Dempsey every fight Harry Wills, but there is this wilt Dempsey who is Dempsey got his crown by heating Willard.

SOX SIGN CATCHER AND NEW PITCHERS PARK IS IMPROVED New Fences, Grandstand, Showers and Lockers Will Greet Fans When the fans file through the turnstiles on the opening date this year at Thick Sox park they will find themselves face to face with several improvements that will round out the most complete colored baseball park in the country. The entrance will be changed so that those who purchase tickets for the baseball will go through one gate while those who buy for the bleachers will enter another, thus there will be no congestion at the entrances. The outfield has been re-seeded, the ground beveled, and if the ground can be sourced the right-field fence will be moved back about 25 feet if not, then the posts will be moved in which screen will be put, and new grandstand in that field will be built. One of the greatest improvements is for the benefit of the players, which is that hot and cold showers have been put in the clubhouses and also individual lockers. The only thing remaining now is the support of the fans to make this the greatest year in baseball in the East. ROJO AMONG NEW MEN SIGNED The Sox Club has about completed its roster of players for the opening of the season as follows: Pitchers; "Doc" Sykes, Winder, Marbury, formerly of Indianapolis; Mitch McCarthy, formerly of Michigan; ell, former Richmond Giants hurler; catchers; Rojp, former N. V. Bacharachs first-striker, and Joe Lewis; infielder; Wilson, 1st base; Coo Smith, 2nd base; Miller, 3rd base;olesh, shortstop; Outfielder; "Lotty" Smith, left-field; Raggs, center-field; Hatt, right-field; Utility players; Goo, center-field; pitcher who is rated as one of the greatest players in the game today, and Richardson, formerly of Richmond Giants, who was in the line-up last season. An outstanding feature of the conduct of the league is the fact that it will select its own unipres, who will be registered and given full authority to settle all disputes and disagreements. Hence, there will be no "walking off the field" with the admission fee of hundreds of fans barred up" as has been the case in other clubs whose ousted clubs soon here. Also the unipres will have authority to fine players for insturbitation. The league wants to get coached men to officiate in the league games if competent men can be found, and Messrs Spedden and Rossiter intend to send in the name of Charles Cromwell, the local "square deal" arbitrator, who has become famous among sportsmen for putting "can" in it. If coached men are found to fill the roster, then whiten men will be selected. A REAL BASEBALL LEAGUE Manager Sheldon sold the Arofa today that the Sox being to a real baseball league now, and in order that it should be just that in every sense of the word it was decided that one controlling head, the infielders, be conducted on the commission plan, plus a commission of six was named, including Wm. Tucker, of the Atlantic City Bracketball Giants; Nat Strong, of the Brooklyn Royal Giants; Jas. Koehn, of the Lincoln Club; E. Pompa, of the Hildale Club; E. Pompa, of the then Stars, and Chas. Sheldon, of the Black Sox. These six clubs named will comprise the league, which is scheduled to open on April 25th for teams that play Saturday games, and on the 29th for teams that play Sunday with the league, which is scheduled to open on Sunday with the Urban League, Jubilee header and a single game on Monday. The league is beginning with a schedule of 45 games, but if the patronage warrants, the schedule will be increased, and a fund has been set aside to purchase a league pennant for the club that fittings strong independent clubs will also be played by league teams from time to time. PLAN COUNTY MEETS William S. Pittman, State field leader of the Public Athletic League, has sent out notices to the county school supervisor that the field days will conducted this year as usual on about the same dates in season. No excuses data for handling the meets will be sent to the supervisors and by them distributed to the teachers as soon as the supervisors send in notices as to where the meets will be held.

The children had the measles. A telephone came saying my mother would be in on the morning train. I hastily bitched the house to the boggy and drove to the depot, hoping to arrive before the train. As I approached the depot, I saw the smoke of the approaching train, and leisurely tied my horse and sauntered across to the track, as the depot was on the other side. As I paused at the track, I thought how easily I might cross ahead of the train and be there to welcome mother. Being small and of sight, I gave a little help skin when, to my surprise, slipped in a bit of leftover middle of the track and lay down I went. Even then I smiled and thought, how quickly and easily I could yet clear the track, and when I tried to the, I found to my horror that my high-heeled shoe was caught in the hem of my rather tight skirt and that I could not move. The train was now almost upon me. I was about to lay my head upon the rail, feeding all was over, by a ladder, at the risk of his own life, grasped the by the arm, just a little aid was all I needed, and we gained the other side of track at such close quarters that the train grazed us and the engineer sprang from his cab thinking he had passed over.

My First Beau My First Beau It was a drowsy June morning at church. The minister talked on and on. Half the congregation was nodding sleepily. Starched, frilled and curled, I sat primly beside my aunt. My eyeballs were heavy, but I knew my maiden aunt thought it inexcessible for a 9-year-old girl to find it impossible to take care of her. Suddenly a shrill thru me. I was gazing straight into a pair of ardent blue eyes, get in an honest freckled face, with a wide, cheerful mouth and a mop of red hair. He grinned at me, and I dimpled demurely, dropped my eyes and blushed vividly. I no longer had a desire to doze. My heart beat swiftly and I trembled, as I smoothed my stiffly starched skirts. A bush fell and I caught the minute deep "Amen!" The people rose and several women came to speak to my aunt. She turned to me: "Merry Sue, do you think you can go home alone?" Mrs. fame has asked me to spend the afternoon with her. I started down the street my little heart, bleeding violently. "Quick steps came behind me. It was Jimmy of the red hair. "Mary—may I walk with you, Mary Sue?" he asked shyly. "Y-yes," I stammered in a low voice. We walked along in silence. Suddenly he began speaking: "I've loved you an awful long time, Mary Sue. You got such be you-tiful eyes, sora dark an soft. An such pretty brown curls. An' yer curls are so pink. Pretty soon I'll be a man—I'm 11 now. An' we'll marry an' to Japan an' you can make cream puffs, an' I'll have lots of money. Will you, Mary Sue?" I nodded, my face crimson. We had reached my gate. He stooped and kissed my small hand, I fled to the veranda and into the house. Dear little Jimmy. He gave his clean young life to his country. He lies now in the fields of France.

The young man I am has a brother who marry him. He is about eight years older. I met this young man merely by flirting. He has no friends here and there was no way we could possibly get an introduction. He says he loves me and trusts me, but he persists that I flirt. I am afraid to trust myself to him while he thinks this way. I am afraid it will cost a shadow over our married life. So writes "Silly." Of course, "Silly" you made a mistake in making it doubtful. But the only thing for you to do is to tell him again what you have told him. Insist that if he wishes to go on with your marriage that he must never refer to it again. "I am a married woman, 27 years old, and have two children. I love my husband dearly, and he says he loves me, but at times he does not act as if he loves me. There are times I would like to go out, perhaps with mother or one of my sisters. He does not think I should go out without him, and he doesn't care to go at times when I should love to go. So I lose out by him not letting me go with others. This often causes a quarrel between us, and I should like your advice." Many married women would feel flattered if their husbands felt they should always accompany them when they went out at night. When you wish to go out with your family and consult him about it, you do not give him the impression that you are complaining. You should be able to adjust this matter between you without fussing. Embarrassing Moment What four tours! The Aero pigs a dollar each week for the best one received during the week. Address Embarrassment Editor, ARCO-AMERICA, Baltimore. The last term of school I taught was far from my home town and my husband-to-be. So far away that we arranged to see each other only once and that at Easter time, when he was to come for the weekend to my boarding place. Thus those long winter months we planned by letters for that visit, and in many a dream by the fireside did I picture our meeting. I would go to the station, a stone's throw from the house, to meet him, for idle eyes to spy on my happiness. Rather I would hear the train whistle and would wait for him within the privacy of our enclosed porch and then— At last the evening and hour came, the train whistled, the peach door opened, a man stopped into the darkness, and I threw my arms around him and smothered my Harold with kisses. Only when a second later the door opened again and another form entered did I realize it was not Harold I had greeted, but the president of the school board, who had come to see if I would teach again the next term. After explanations were over, the director told me his business and added, addressing Harold, "I know by Miss K's welcome, intended for you, that her teaching days are over, and the answer to my question is, 'No,' but I strongly suspect the answer to yours will be 'Yes.'" And he was a true prophet, for we were married last summer.—Mrs. M. The neighbors who moved next door to me seemed very friendly. In the mornings when I opened my kitchen shutter, the lady usually waved her hand. One morning I opened my shutter and held my hand. I found out the other person did not wave. I looked again. It was the lady's husband I had warmer to. That was my most embarrassing moment.—M. K.

To Keep Baby's Feet Warm Buy his shoes a little too large then from an old fold hat cut into soles. This will insure warmth for the little feet and the insoles may be removed when the shoes become too small—Miss Elmer Davis. Nursing Mother The mother who is nursing a child should have plenty of fresh air and some exercise daily out of doors, preferably walking or light gardening. While she may perform her regular household duties, she should not be overworked and should take a nap every afternoon. A nursing mother can not afford to have a spell of nerves. Anger, worry, grief, and excitement, all intertwine with the nervous system and its control of the circulation of the blood, which affects the supply and quality of the milk. The mother's diet should be appetizing, nutritious, baskative. As a rule, she may follow her choice of food, avoiding that which she has learned disturbs her digestion. If the milk is scanty, a more generous diet is needed. She should have more fresh vegetables, rice fruit, nourishing liquid food, and drink plenty of water, avoiding tea, coffee, and alcoholic preparations. Fresh fruits are excellent; so are bean biscuits or bean added to the whole-wheat flour. A glass of hot water the first thing on rising in the morning is beneficial. A mother should be down to nurse her baby. The new-born baby is first put to the breast when five or six hours old. During the first 24 hours he should not nurse more than four times, but each time at both breasts. He may be given plain, cool, hot water at regular intervals between feedings, do not give him tea or any other mixture. Beginning the second day he should not nurse oftener than every three hours. In the event the mother's milk is delayed longer than the third day, the baby should be fed from the second-hour intervals, he should be put to the breast regularly in order to stimulate the flow of milk. Always follow regular hours for nursing and do not feed the baby every time he哭s. The average child rarely nurses longer than 15 minutes. If he is not satisfied after 29 minutes, consult a physician.

First I study the soil; then at the proper time plant carefully the different seeds, each kind in a little throw of its own. I manage my husband in much the same way. I study his moods, then at the proper moment drop the little seeds of my needs, desires and longings right into the furrows of our composition, but first I make sure that these seeds are labeled "wishon" and that the crop I wish to grow will be one really conducive to our happiness and well-being. Even then I wait until the soil of his mind has been enriched, usually by a carefully prepared meal.

Washington colored people again showed that they do not easily enthuse over the stars of the race, at least not to the extent of financially supporting them. J.

The party consisted of Greentown and Drayton, Eddie and Grace Rector, the former the Beau Brummels of the Negro stage, if not the whole amusement world, and the leader of all dancers. With the moderator Gertrude Sunsaders, Maude Russell and Bess Simms, three of our greatest, and latest female stars, Izzy Meyers, pianist and Perry Bradford, the famous "Blues" composer and publisher were added attractions.

Those brought up the subject of preparing for the future, with the result that Allen admitted that the team anticipated the purchase of a home in Philadelphia in the very near future; and the accident insurance and accident insurance enough to require two hundred dollars each year for premiums, and anticipated taking out a thousand and dollar endowment policy in a standard company soon. As he became interested, he pulled out a HILLMOARD date book, wherein he had set down the year's earnings, and expenses to date, the commissions paid out, and some other excellent information. He accompanied these disclosures with the remark that he and the madman worked together and hid nothing of a financial character from one another; and that both realized that the day had come when the colored actor should free himself from the public humiliation in his old age, or at death. They make a the example of the right-minded people of the profession. They are kept busy in the vicinity of Philadelphia for this month with excellent prospects of good bookings to follow.

No news of the circuit meeting has been received from Chattanooga at the time this is written; but it is to be hoped that some action has been taken toward relieving the acts of these needless lay offs that are so expensive and so disastrous to the morale of the companies.

Many performers write in compiling that they receive no responses to their letters. The fault is largely theirs. The volume of work that derives upon them is too prompt answering letters the same day they are received, sometimes not even the same week; therefore when no advance address is given, when we want to answer, we don't know where to address it. Therefore no answer.

Jackson The following is extracted from a letter written by Billy Chambers, in which he comments refreshingly and intelligently upon the obstacles with which the colored advance in the show world is retarded. "In the dressing rooms, one often hears vaudeville performers complaining of this or that other person using his songs or material. A little investigation easily discloses that he too is a thief; and that the matter mentioned was originated by yet another person." "Another pest is the acts who work indifferently in the colored houses, and constantly brag that they are doing a favor to be there at all, since they should be on a white show; and would be excepted if they were doing a certain clause in the contract offered. "A real 'pain' is the actor who walks on depending upon some vulgar and hoped-to-be funny comment on preceding acts." "Then again, there are many who are following in the footsteps of the hundreds now dead who were buried by donated money collected from former fellow-workers, in that they are booze heads and otherwise extravagant in their weekly expenses." "Circuit managers are responsible for long jumps, 'lay-offs' and inadequate salaries." "The act was talented, but their costumes very cheap (or thirty) is not performed, and care for their wardrobe, if the weekly salary barely permits transportation and the cheapest of board." "Some improvement could be effected if ness were classified.

In an effort to decrease crime and "make the Northwestern a good place which to live" Captain Lastner has claimed the lid down all-night amusements, about the closing of near- ```markdown ``` structive control of the young people that must exercise in the homes and institutions wholly within the race. "The APRO-AMERICAN has been a great help along this line as well as some of the principals in the public schools with whom I have talked," said Captain Lastner. "Another feature of law breaking that I have tried to minimize in this district has been race-hating. Of the 42 cases apprehended last year this district had 17 to its credit," said the prosecutor on the wrong path more quickly than betting on races. Not only the money that should be used for preparing for decent lives and proper support of homes is lost but the inevitable mantra that it develops generally leads either to crime or destroys the incentive for honest endeavor most young men. We are going to wherever we find it in this district. "We are also going to continue the decrease, effort to minimize the sale of intoxicating liquors unlawfully in this district. The Court of Appeals has handed down a decision whereby the police department can institute cases under the State law and already convictions based on this law have been obtained in the Criminal Court. The effect of this new order has been reflected in the decrease in drunkenness as well as patty misdemeanors growing out of drunkenness." Should Have Supervised Amusements Although Captain Laster made it clear that the duty of the police department ended with seeing that the law is obeyed and bringing into custody those that break the law, it was brought out in the discussion that much might be done in a constructive way to lesson the incentive for bad social practices among the young people.
